Jin Xiaofeng's entire person was beaten until she was stupefied, tears started to roll down her eyes. Peering through the tears, the person in front of him was none other than Liu Yuyan.
The anger in her heart turned into grievance, Jin Xiaofeng said out loud: "Mother, why did you hit me …"
"Why did I hit you?" Liu Yuyan's eyes were wide open, his eyebrows almost reaching his temples. "I'm going to wake you up, you idiot! I'm going to let you see what you're doing!"
"What did I do …" Jin Xiaofeng felt even more wronged.
Liu Yuyan had just recovered her body and was so angry that she almost fell down again: "You still have the nerve to ask! If not for your stupidity, you would be the one who married into County Magistrate Mansion yesterday! Even if you were sold to someone else, you still have to pay up. It's one thing if you don't marry into their family, but why are you signing any indenture contract! Do you think you're not lowly enough? "
Liu Yuyan was so angry that she had nowhere to vent it out, she extended her hand and pinched Jin Xiaofeng's waist twice.
Jin Xiaofeng screamed miserably as she twisted her fingers.
"Mother!" Jin Xiaofeng panicked, "Mother, you don't know, County Magistrate Mansion is not something that you can do just because you want to … "Even though she's called a servant, she's actually half a master. It would be better to find a rich and powerful husband than to marry off in the village."
"Is all that shit in your head?" Liu Yuyan was so angry that she almost vomited blood, "Half a master? A free husband? Did you hear it from Jin Xiaotao? "
Jin Xiaofeng continued to shed tears as she nodded her head.
"You believed her just because she said it?" Liu Yuyan sneered, "This is why the one who marries is her, not you. She is much smarter than you!"
Jin Xiaofeng was startled, then swallowed her saliva: "Could it be, the Xiaotao can actually deceive me?"
Liu Yuyan looked at her foolish and useless daughter, and shook her head.
She touched her flat stomach. She had thought that she would have a son to rely on for the rest of her life. She hadn't thought that her fate would be so rough.
Liu Yuyan did not want to talk to her daughter anymore, she would not be able to make sense of the situation, so she might as well not talk anymore.
He immediately clenched his fist and said to Jin Xiaofeng: "Since you've signed the agreement, then I'll sign it. But tomorrow, you'll reveal to Tan Sihai that you're willing to marry him."
Jin Xiaofeng was so shocked that her tears almost flowed, "What … Mother, you want me to marry into that hunter's house? "
"What happened to the hunter?" Liu Yuyan said as her gaze sharpened, "Didn't you choose this yourself? You followed others and even carried their child. Only by marrying them can you straighten your back and live your entire life. "
"But …" Firstly, Jin Xiaofeng looked down on Tan Sihai, and secondly, when she thought about the appearance of the Hunter Tan, he was afraid, "But Tan Sihai's father also … "He is also unwilling to take this wife of mine …"
Liu Yuyan smiled blandly: "That old hunter, three days ago he looked down on us, but now he wants to come and propose marriage. Don't forget, we are now kin with Zhixian."
At Shengze Village, not long after Jin Xiaolou and her group left.
A man in white walked out from behind the old peach tree.
Seeing that person, Aunt Bai immediately smiled and welcomed him: "Young noble, I did what you told me beautifully. That family of three just left, I need to love them as much as I can."
Chang An nodded his head, and retrieved two taels of silver from his robes and handed it over to Aunt Bai.
Aunt Bai was grinning from ear to ear. Just as she was about to put the silver away, her palm relaxed and she took back another silver ingot.
Chang An had a serious face as he said unhurriedly: "If you say that my young master is like a little pig, then wouldn't you say that our master is a pig? "One silver ingot."
The corner of Aunt Bai's mouth twitched. A joke about praising a child, why did this young master take it as real …
But just one ingot of silver was enough to satisfy her, she immediately kept the rest of the silver and said to Chang An: "Dammit, it's time to say something, the young master must be a Qilin, the leader of the Five Spirits, he will definitely be successful in the future!"
After the Aunt Bai praised him, she laughed and tugged at the corner of her shirt, saying, "If Young Master has more of these kinds of jobs, you can look for me. I will do anything to make Young Master satisfied!"
When Jin Xiaolou carried Lin'er and brought him back to the Wellhead Village, it was already afternoon.
As soon as she entered the house, she discovered that the goods that had been randomly placed yesterday had been taken care of by someone. Needless to say, it was the Gui Qu Gang who had helped her.
However, there was no sign of Gui Zhi at the front and back of the house. He was afraid that she had gone to the river to wash her clothes.
It was such a cold day, yet the river water was even more bone-piercing. When Jin Xiaolou washed clothes, her hands would become numb from the cold.
This year, Jin Xiaolou was going to let Huang Guizhi enjoy a warm and peaceful winter.
Jin Xiaolou placed the Lin'er on the bed in the room, then called for Gao Lang to set up a big pot, and started to make canned food.
The canned food was actually stored in jars. After being sealed and sterilized, the food inside the canned food would no longer be contaminated by microbes, and the bacteria inside the canned food would be killed as well. From then on, the canned food would be stored for an extended period of time.
The canned potato and beef that Jin Xiaolou wanted to make was both simple and delicious. It was one of Jin Xiaolou's favorites in the past in the modern world.
After finishing the experiment, he felt dizzy and dizzy. He was so hungry that he felt like his chest was sticking to his back. He opened a can of beef and potatoes. When he felt the microwave heat up, it was called incense.
Especially with curry.
Jin Xiaolou swallowed her saliva, let Gao Lang tidy up the beef, then took the wooden bucket to the well at the entrance of the village to get some water.
She stopped by Carpenter Sun's house along the way and brought out a metal jar. She asked Carpenter Sun to make a batch of cork that matched in size.
Aunt Sun's Madame Ye had long heard that Jin Xiaolou had bought a large amount of potato and beef from the county. At this moment, she hurriedly came up to him and asked if there was anything she could help with.
Madame Ye knew that there was only Gao Lang by his side. Gao Lang was a good person, but his head was not very bright. Madame Ye was worried that he would help Xiao Wen Li.
"If you need anything, just say so. Anyway, auntie has nothing to do all day."
Jin Xiaolou was thankful for Madame Ye's enthusiasm, but she did not stand on ceremony with her. She immediately invited her to go home with him to make canned food.
The two of them carried the water back home. When they entered the courtyard, was still eating, but he did not see Huang Guizhi.
On the other hand, Madame Zhou glanced at Jin Xiaolou and said sourly: "You bought so much potato and beef, are you going to open a restaurant? "But I'm afraid there's only one dish in your restaurant that won't do."
After saying that, he laughed.
Jin Xiaolou did not have the time to care about Madame Zhou, but Madame Ye could not take it lying down.
Although Madame Ye had her own questions, as to why Jin Xiaolou bought so much beef, she was a person who had seen Jin Xiaolou's abilities before. She knew that the house had its own ideas, so no matter what she did, she only needed to support her!
"You are a family member of the Lou Clan. It's one thing for you not to help, but you're still going through the motions. Is there a need for you to act like an aunt?"
Madame Ye had never seen anyone with such a family, it was truly a cry for injustice on behalf of the small house.
How could such a good girl be born into such a family?
"What has it got to do with you?" Madame Zhou put down her chopsticks, "You also know that I'm her aunt, so what if I say something to you? "Who do you think you are? Is there a place for you to talk?"
"I don't mean anything. I'm just saying a few words in the face of injustice." Madame Ye was a kind person and rarely argued with others.
"That means you talk too much!" Madame Zhou picked up the bowl again, and with a single word, she caused Madame Ye's face to flush.
Jin Xiaolou didn't want to talk much with Madame Zhou, so the best way to deal with a shrew was to just ignore it.
But at this moment, seeing that Madame Ye had suffered for her sake, Jin Xiaolou had no choice but to give her face. Jin Xiaolou did not even stop as she walked, and said loudly: "The one who talks so much is you, Auntie Sun is my aunt, it makes sense to speak for me. However, from the day I signed the contract, she is no longer a part of your Jin Family. Can't I stop you from eating? "
With that said, she went around the dam and entered the straw hut, the door slammed, leaving Madame Zhou in the courtyard with a sore lung, but there was nothing to vent her anger on, it really made her uncomfortable.
Once they entered the hut, Jin Xiaolou immediately grabbed onto Madame Ye's hand: "Aunt, thank you."
This was the first time Madame Ye came to Jin Xiaolou's room, and she didn't feel good about this rundown thatched cottage and the attitude of the Jin Family people towards Jin Xiaolou.
"Little Lou, all these years have been hard on you." Madame Ye held onto Jin Xiaolou's hand and sighed.
The two of them carried the water to the backyard and squatted close to it. Then, they took out the potatoes one by one and carefully washed them one by one.
After washing one, he gave it to Gao Lang, who cut it into pieces and placed it in the big pot.
After a while, Jin Xiaolou's hands were dyed red by the cold water.
Gao Lang stretched lazily and put down the knife: "My wife, cutting potatoes is so boring. I want to wash the potatoes, my wife, please cut it!"
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and squatted in front of the basin.
Jin Xiaolou had no choice but to dry her hands and switch with Gao Lang.
Shaking his head, he mumbled, "What a fool, washing potatoes is so much harder."
Madame Ye also shook her head, her mouth pursed into a smile: "Gao Lang sure loves you dearly!"
The three of them chatted and laughed. Although it was hard work, they did it comfortably until the potatoes and beef were cooked in the wok and they put them into the pot one by one. It was already completely dark.
Jin Xiaolou pinched her sore neck: "I'll wait for the rest to finish sealing the cork and heat it up the next day."
However, it was already so late, why hadn't Gui Zhi returned yet?
Taking the chance that Madame Ye was sending him home, Jin Xiaolou decided to look for Gui Qi. She took the light and walked over to the pigsty, and with a casual glance, he saw a woman covered in dirt lying beside the two Blossom Spot Sows in the pigsty.
