suspected wife

On the afternoon of the thirteenth, when Zhou Yanqing was about to board the car, Mrs. Wu from the Yue family arrived panting.

After Zhou Yanqing finished speaking with heavy breaths, she just stood there in a daze.

But Qiao Mingjin stood there with no expression, as expected.

"You mean, let me pay your third child's wages? Is that what you mean?"

Mrs. Wu nodded repeatedly, and said: "My third son was on the construction site for ten whole days when he went home for vacation. He didn't even have time to rest at home for a day. Moreover, he did twice as much work as others, and he worked harder than others. If you give double the money, at least you have to get a normal salary, right?"

Zhou Yanqing looked at Wu Shi several times in a daze, but really didn't know what to say.

And Wu Shi didn't feel any embarrassment at Zhou Yanqing's direct gaze.

Although she didn't dare to look at the young man from the city, she didn't back down.His son, who was finally at home on vacation, hadn't done any work for the family, but he came to help Qiao's.What's wrong with her coming to get paid?

Zhou Yanqing really didn't know what to say.

He didn't feel sorry for the few money, ten days' salary was not enough for him to reward his servants in his eyes, he just thought it was a bit unbelievable.

Zhou Yanqing glanced at Qiao Mingjin.

Qiao Mingjin just looked at him indifferently and said: "Please send him ten days' wages from the sixth master. It happens that the sixth master is also here."

Qiao Mingjin looked unwilling to take matters into her own hands, she was really afraid that Zhou Yanqing would leave and Wu would come to pester her.

Zhou Yanqing looked back and forth at Wu Shi and Qiao Mingjin several times.This mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have also lived together for a few years, why is it the same as the old grudge in the previous life?

My son came to help his daughter-in-law with some work.The mother-in-law came to ask for wages?

What kind of weirdness is this?

How could this woman live like this?

He also felt that this woman was fine because the husband wanted to marry a concubine to make a reconciliation, which was a bit of a fuss, and it was really unreasonable to move out with a young daughter.But now, in his opinion, it was somewhat clear.

Why.It was the first time for him to encounter such a miracle on Saturday.This level is comparable to the backyard of the mansion gate.

Zhou Yanqing glanced at Qiao Mingjin again, only to see that the woman had a low eyebrow and was pleasing to the eye, staring ahead with a calm face, not looking at Wu Shi next to her.

Zhou Yanqing shook his head.He ordered the young boy next to him to pay his wages to Mrs. Wu next to him.

"Thank you Saturday Lord, thank you Saturday Lord."

Mrs. Wu didn't stay long after receiving the wages, and walked away happily holding hundreds of copper coins with a grin.

"Is she really your mother-in-law?"

Qiao Mingjin didn't speak, but just glanced at him.

"Tsk tsk, what luck are you doing. Tsk tsk..."

"Come on, don't tsk tsk. You are interested in irrelevant things. Go away. Otherwise, you won't be in town before sunset."

Zhou Yanqing wanted to tease Qiao Mingjin, but she interrupted him.He had no choice but to take a look at her before stepping into the carriage.

After the car curtain was lowered, Qiao Mingjin entered her yard and closed the gate...

"Sixth Master, why do you think there is such a person? The son comes to work for the daughter-in-law. He also comes to collect wages?"

One of Zhou Yanqing's two servants clicked his tongue.

Seeing that Zhou Yanqing didn't stop him, the other servant also said: "At first, I thought this lady of the Qiao family was a sexist. She was jealous, and I looked down on her a little bit. I didn't expect her mother-in-law to be this kind. people."

Another young man took a sneaky look at Zhou Yanqing and said, "Master, do you think this Mrs. Qiao is pitiful? I heard from people in the village that during the four years when her husband was away, she was busy with other things, and still Doing embroidery work and selling money to support a large family, but when her father-in-law came back, she was going to marry someone else."

"I didn't think much of her before, but now it seems that she is quite pitiful. Otherwise, how could a woman want to live a hard life alone with a little daughter?"

Zhou Yanqing leaned against the carriage wall with her eyes closed.not talking.

When the two servants thought he was asleep, Zhou Yanqing opened his eyes and glanced at the two of them, and said, "After you return to the city, go and see if there are any good horses for sale. Then find someone to make a new carriage and put Put this carriage on and send it to Mrs. Qiao."

"Master, you want to give this carriage to Mrs. Qiao? And find her a horse? Then why don't you just give this horse to Mrs. Qiao?"

Another boy leaned over and knocked on his forehead: "Don't you know what kind of horse this is? This is my favorite horse! It travels thousands of miles every day! You may not be able to find the second horse in Qingchuan. match."

The boy who was beaten rubbed his forehead and gritted his teeth at the other boy.He glanced at Zhou Yanqing cautiously again: "Master, I know I was wrong."

"It's nothing. It's not that your father is reluctant. This horse may cause some unnecessary troubles to Mrs. Qiao. Moreover, this horse is a fierce one, and Mrs. Qiao may not be able to control it. After you return to the city, just look for it. A tamer mare will do."

"Yes."

……

The people under Zhou Yanqing were very efficient, and found a docile mare that day, a young mare that was only five years old.Although it is not a good horse, a bloody horse, or something like that, it is still a good horse.

For the sake of Lord Saturday, people only paid 100 taels of silver.

So on the [-]th, when Qiao Mingjin and his two children were picking vegetables in their fence to prepare for lunch that day, they saw a servant of Zhou Yanqing driving a carriage and riding a horse with his special coachman. up.

It really startled her.

After the family heard clearly what they came for, the two children jumped up and down with excitement.Especially Wan'er excitedly let the boy hug her and sit in the carriage on the spot.

The coachman was instructed by Zhou Yanqing to teach Qiao Mingjin how to drive a carriage on the spot.

Qiao Mingjin studied very seriously.

These days, relying on mountains and mountains, relying on everyone to run, everything is not as reliable as relying on yourself.

The coachman sent by Zhou Yanqing originally thought that he was not happy to let him teach a village woman in the countryside, and he didn't know when he learned it.When can I go back to the city.Tomorrow will be the fifteenth day, if he can't go back at night, it will delay his family reunion.

He never thought that he only taught her once, and then led her around a few times, and this woman would be able to do it by herself.

Although there are many women in their Zhou Mansion who can drive a carriage, which one is not big and round?He was still worried about a delicate and slender little woman like her.

I didn't expect to learn so well.

In fact, Qiao Mingjin has driven an ox cart many times.Although horses and cows are different, they also have something in common.

And the horse is quite docile.And if the cow becomes stubborn, it will be very stubborn.As soon as the cow's head is lowered, you will use all your strength to feed it. No matter how you whip it, the cow will grab the ground with all four hooves and will not go away.Driving a bullock cart is not an easy task.

Qiao Mingjin has been driving an ox cart for so long, so she has some experience.So learn quickly.

Although the horse can't ride yet.But she has mastered the skill of carriage.

In the end, of course, everyone is happy.

After Zhou Yanqing's servant received the 100 taels of silver note from Qiao Mingjin, he and the coachman drove back to the city.The two of them didn't even eat.

And Ming Qi and Xiao Wan'er were full just looking at the horses, and they didn't even bother to eat. The two aunts and nephews grabbed a few pieces of cakes and went to the hillside to mow grass for the horses with their baskets on their backs.Qiao Mingjin couldn't laugh or cry.

In the afternoon, she ate with two small things, and saw their fresh and excited faces.Qiao Mingjin took them and led the horse to the river to give the horse Liuwan a drink, and brush its hair by the way.

"Mom. Shall we give the horse a name?"

"Okay. Then you and my aunt will give the horse a nice name."

"Sister, it's red chestnut color all over, let's call it Hong Hong."

Qiao Mingjin was shaking with pimples, and before she could speak, Xiao Wan'er yelled, "It's not good! Don't call me Honghong!"

"Sister, doesn't it sound good?"

"Do you think it sounds good?"

"okay."

"Mother. It's tall and strong. Let's call it Zhuangzhuang."

"It doesn't sound good to be strong. How can there be a horse called strong?"

Qiao Mingjin was amused to watch the two little things blushing while arguing, and only looked at the horse beside him without speaking.

"Mother (sister), please give it a nice name."

"Ok."

Qiao Mingjin thought for a while and asked two little things: "Do you like to eat ingots made by your mother?"

"like."

"Then this horse should be called Yuan Bao. It's still a joy."

"Okay, let's call it Yuanbao! Yuanbao, you have a name. Your name is Yuanbao. Yuanbao, does it sound good?"

The red chestnut horse snorted in the air, not sure whether it was like it or not.In short, it will be the ingot of the Qiao family from now on...

Yue Zhongyao didn't return to Xiahe Village until the afternoon of the [-]th day.When he came back this time, Liu Meiniang did not follow him.

When Yue Zhongyao returned home, he didn't even have time to drink the water, so he put down his burden, and didn't care about Mrs. Wu screaming behind him, so he picked up a small burden and went to Qiao's house.

It's just General Tie guarding the gate of Qiao's house.

Yue Zhongyao turned around twice in a strange way, then lay down on the courtyard wall and listened a few times, it was quiet inside, not a single sound from anyone.

This place is outside the village, and there are no neighbors nearby to ask.Yue Zhongyao waited at the door, but no one came back for a long time.

Did you go back to your mother's house?

Yue Zhongyao was a little anxious.After thinking about it, he walked up the mountain again.

It happened that Yue Dalei and sister Xiu were looking at the wooden piles dug by the villagers on the mountain, helping to estimate the value.During this period of time, Sister Xiu has been with Qiao Mingjin for a long time, and she also knows how to value the wooden pile.

"Zhong Yao, are you back?"

Yue Dalei greeted Yue Zhongyao affectionately, but Sister Xiu just glanced at him and turned her head away without speaking.

"Da Lei, do you know where Jinniang took the child? But back to her mother's house?"

"Didn't you hear that you were going back to your natal family? When Yunjin and the others went back yesterday, they drove the ox cart away. Your sister-in-law also said that if she wanted to go back to her natal family, she would come to my house to borrow the ox cart, but she didn't. She must have returned it." It’s in the village. If you want to go back, you should tell us, because she has a lot of chickens at home that we need to take care of.”

"But I searched around and didn't see anyone."

"Then have you looked at the river? Sometimes, Jinniang will take the child to the river to go fishing or something."

"I haven't been there yet. Then, I'll look for it."

After Yue Cuiyao left, sister Xiu glared at the man: "Why did you tell him? Let him look for him if he wants to? I don't even have the patience for this."

"You, you, he didn't make a big mistake. You just have the heart to see that Wan'er doesn't have a biological father? For such a young child, no matter how good others treat her, that is not a biological father."

Sister Xiu snorted, turned her head and said nothing. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
