C222 Qingfeng Rui Xuexiang (2)

These words immediately piqued everyone's interest. Peaches also stopped peeling the peanuts and turned to ask, "But the age is not good, and the landlord doesn't have any food to eat?"

Old Lai smiled and shook his head, saying vividly, "That landlord surnamed Yao is holding a bunch of good fields in his hands. Almost everyone in the village is farming for him, and when the time comes for him to pay and rent, the granary will be filled to the brim with rice. However, who would have thought that such a rich family would only be able to eat brackish porridge and pickled vegetables. They would even need to eat a piece of tofu to celebrate the new year?! Why do you say that? The landlord surnamed Yao is a person who will die no matter how much he dies. As he talked about the five valleys' reincarnation cycle, what came out was only a pile of fecal water.

After Wan Rou heard this, she burst out laughing, "Since we are going to eat so much, and also have to save money, why don't we just eat the Rice Corpse instead?

When Xu Mingwei heard the two words "Mi Zombie", she couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of tea. She looked at Wan Rou and laughed: "You are so dirty, how are you going to eat tonight?"

Old Lai's family also burst into laughter. They stopped and continued, "Landlord Yao only ate bran while guarding the mountain. Although his wife's eyes were blurry from hunger, she was still used to it. In the past twenty years, he had also raised two kids, so no one in the village was aware of his family's situation as they fought to marry his daughter. It was one thing to have relatives for the first few days. After the people who brought the bride had left, there was only rice porridge and a small plate of pickled vegetables left at the table. "The eldest son's wife colluded with the youngest son's wife and ordered her man to buy some fish secretly with the dowry. One of them went on sentry duty, while the other threw it on the road for the landlord to pick it up."

Wan Rong curled her lips, "Truly trying to work hard. People always say that if you don't want to marry, you need to make up for it yourself in the end before you can eat anything good."

Wan Rou hit her and said, "Stop talking nonsense, just you wait and see if the owner will take advantage of you or not."

Old Lai's family smiled and said, "Pick it up!" How could he not pick up the ready-made items! As for that landlord Yao, he happily picked up two big fat carp and went home. His wife thought about it and after much difficulty, she finally ate the fish and inevitably steamed some rice. As he feasted on the fish, he clenched his teeth and endured it. In the evening, his daughter-in-law sat at the table and started eating the roasted carp with chopsticks. She even ate two more bowls of food, which were not enough to steam her again. "

Xu Mingwei thought, this was really pitiful enough.

Old Lai's family took a breather and then said, "There are only two fishes, one meal and they're all gone. The two wives thought that they could do this kind of work, but they couldn't bear it any longer, so they asked the man to buy them some fish. "I didn't expect that a few days later, he would meet another two fish without a owner. He wanted to pick them up first, but then he kicked the fish away fiercely and said, 'Pei, if I pick you up, I'll have to waste a lot of rice!'"

The entire room was laughing so hard that it hurt the stomach. Wan Rou almost fell off her seat, but luckily Wan Rong held him back in time to prevent her butt from getting into trouble.

It was at this time that Fu Heng pushed the door open and entered. A room full of laughter gradually froze over, as they obediently went forward to pay their respects.

"What kind of joke is up ahead that it's so lively?" He only casually asked, his eyes staring straight at Xu Mingwei, and seeing that her eyes still had a warm smile in them, his heart felt like it was on fire, and only felt hot.

When Xu Mingwei saw him enter, she did not take off her hat. She knew that he was waiting for her, so she stood up and helped him take off his clothes. Time was indeed the best medicine. The longer it dragged on, the more it became numb. Now, she couldn't even remember the reason she had quarreled with him before.

"Aunt is telling a joke. If you are not busy, then sit down and listen." Her face was calm as she heard herself laughing softly.

Old Lai's family was elated, he even made an excuse on the surface, "What I know are all vulgar stories, how could I have heard them?"

Fu Heng looked at Xu Mingwei happily, and without looking back, he said to the Old Lai Family, "What you have heard, I naturally can hear, so speak."

For a moment, no one knew what to do, whether they should quietly retreat, or accompany them and listen to the story. But when the Old Lai family members looked over, they all went up and down, peeling peanuts and roasting chestnuts, treating it as if Fu Heng had not come back yet.

The Old Lai family started to tell the story of the many troubles in front of the widow's door. In the end, those who had the kindness to help got a good ending, and those who had the ill intentions got their retribution. Although it was a cliché, it was a story that everyone loved to talk about. It was a story where karma was repaid. Moreover, she was an expert at telling stories. In a story, there were four to five people, and the tone of her voice was extremely imitative and unique. Xu Mingwei listened attentively, but taught his students to slowly spread out their palms and pour out handfuls of pine nut meat.

She looked towards the person sitting beside her in a daze. Fu Heng seemed to have thought about it and turned back to look and smiled, "I know you like to eat this, it's just that you're getting yourself into trouble. Do you want some walnuts? "

Xu Mingwei looked at his hand once again. She was holding a small hammer, and there was a pile of pine nut shells beside his hand. She nodded and slowly pinched the pine nut to eat, but could not taste anything.

New Year's Eve's firecracker was approaching. It had the etiquette of a housekeeper from the past year. This year, he was only doing things based on his experience and was doing well. On the day before New Year's Eve, Lady Helan personally brought some officials and media to come and ask for He Lanjiashan to marry Lian Qiubai. It was originally Lang Youxin's intention, but since both families tacitly agreed to it, this marriage was completed without any suspense.

He Lanjiashan was not young at all, she was around twenty-five, even though the family wasn't anxious on the surface, they were still quite nervous in their hearts. It wasn't easy for him to find a son that her son liked. Lady Liang far away in the Shadow Mountain hadn't seen Lian Qiubai yet, and she had only seen the letters sent by her younger son and her daughter Lady Helan.

Lian Qiu Bai's father, Lian Kai Feng received Fu Hongbo's letter. He was afraid that if his daughter was trapped by the thieves, her reputation would go bad, and it would be difficult for her to get a good marriage again in the future. He knew that He Lanjiashan had the intention to marry her daughter, how could she not? He immediately sent some trusted aides to hire an escort company to bring the dowry left behind by her dead wife to the capital. Although the item had not arrived yet, the letter agreeing to the marriage had arrived early.

On the one hand, née Wang was worried about the reputation of Lian Qiubai, worried that things would drag on for too long. On the other hand, the He Lan family was in a hurry to carry their grandson. With these two added together, it was rather easy for him to clap his hands and quickly agree on the date of marriage between He Lanjiashan and Lian Qiu Bai. They rushed to the beginning of February, and after the first good day of the first month, it would be best for them to get married.

However, this way, it would be too late for Lian Qiubai to embroider his dowry. When Xu Mingwei brought Jiao Jiao over to pay respects to her, she immediately said with a smile, "Your matters are a bit vacant now, but Qiu Er's courtyard is still lacking people. All the girls in your house are good at sewing, if you are free, you can go over and help out, and then you can continue to do some other work in the house."

Xu Mingwei was startled when she heard this. Actually, she had already planned to borrow some needles and thread from Lady Helan when she got to the 9th day, but she was so busy that she forgot about it. She didn't show it in front of Lady Wang first. Now that she was left behind in the backstage, he could only nod lightly in agreement and smile, "Mother is right, my daughter-in-law will tell Wan Rong and the others when we get back."

Lady Wang saw that she was willing to lend her money, so she didn't have anything else to say. With a smile, she let her go. had obviously avoided her, but he had not expected the Lady Zhan to fly towards him with a sly smile. Instead, her body struck her and she actually fell down to the ground.

"AHH!" "My stomach!" Lady Zhan screamed, as specks of red plum blossoms gradually appeared under her skirt.

"Second Young Madam! Blood... "Oh no, Second Young Madam taught Eldest Young Madam and she broke it!" The little girl beside Lady Zhan shouted without caring about anything. Xu Mingwei lowered her head to look at the expression on her face and her heart sank.

"What's wrong, what's wrong!" Mrs Wang heard the sound and quickly walked over. Nanny Xue took a few steps forward and arrived in front of her, upon seeing the scene in front of her, she gasped and exclaimed, "Lord! What's wrong with that! "

Lady Wang also walked over, her face immediately turning pale white, her fingers pointing at Xu Mingwei and then at Lady Zhan. She was obviously shocked and angry, not knowing who to ask first.

Xu Mingwei understood that she had been tricked by Lady Zhan this time. No wonder Fu Heng had told her from the beginning that she did not need to sympathize with Lady Zhan. She turned around and saw Jiao Jiao, who was being hugged by Lam's wife, was crying because of Lady Zhan's screams. For a moment, Lady Wang's courtyard was filled with the cries of children, Lady Zhan's painful cries and Little girl! Little girl's panicked cries for doctors.

"Lam's wife, bring Jiao Jiao back to the courtyard first. Go to Nanny Xu to get a bowl of sweet milk to coax her.

When the Lam's wife heard her and looked at Lady Wang, he saw that she did not say anything to stop him, so he carried the child and left.

"Xue mama, I'll have to trouble you to get me some food, hurry up and invite Dr. Hu over. "He's extremely good at treating women's illnesses. Sister-in-law might even be able to save him."

Hearing that, the Nanny Xue was about to leave, but she told the little girl to hold her arm, and said with a flustered look in her eyes, "Senior Mother, don't be anxious, just now, we went to call for people."

Hearing this, Xu Mingwei laughed and turned back, "This has only happened for a short period of time, when did you start calling people out?"
