The rich and noble peasant daughter

Chapter 109 Chinese New Year, Shameless Family!
No matter how angry Yun Xi was, Yun Shen had already disappeared and seemed to have no plans to reappear.

The night wind brushed against her face, bringing icy snowflakes.Yun Xi shivered, feeling that if she continued to stand, no matter how healthy she was, she would catch a cold. She closed the window hard with a bang, and then returned to the bed.The quilt Du Zhoushi made for her was very warm, and after a while, her whole body warmed up.

It's just that the scene of Yun Shen kissing her cheek just now kept replaying in Yun Xi's mind, and the heat on her cheek kept gushing out, so that she couldn't think of anything else in her mind, and was completely occupied by this incident.

In this case, she didn't feel sleepy at all.

She stared at the ceiling like this until dawn.

Perhaps it was because of her inner strength entering the fourth floor last night, even though she had only rested for a few hours, Yun Xi didn't feel too sleepy the next day, but was still very energetic.

Yun Xi has to go to the city today to buy more narcissus balls.Du Zhoushi had already prepared gifts for the Zeng family, Wang family, and Zhang family, and she asked Yun Xi to send them over by the way.The gifts from the Du family were mainly sausages and beef jerky, as well as a lot of fresh vegetables.Du Zhou gave away the remaining nine catties of beef jerky at home.Yun Xi originally wanted to give narcissus flowers, although her supernatural ability could make narcissus flowers bloom overnight, but if this is the case, the Du family will doubt it, so it is better to let nature take its course.She might as well use the ability to make the narcissus grow better, and then send it over after it blooms.I heard that the master of the Wang family loves Fengya the most, and I think that daffodils will be in his favor when the time comes.

Du Yunyao and Wu Ayu are basically Yun Xi's followers now, so they naturally want to be with her.

Today's county town is more lively than last night. Those stalls are densely packed on both sides of the street to form a long queue. The snowflakes falling in the sky can't stop everyone's enthusiasm for the New Year.

The snow did not fall thickly, only a thin layer was laid on the ground.

Yun Xi first delivered the New Year's gifts one by one, and their gifts really fell in love with these families.After all, sausage and beef jerky are the Du family's specialties, and it's not easy to have fresh green vegetables in this weather.Seeing that they liked it, Yun Xi was relieved.

Yu Hao's wife, Zhang Yuan, still lives in Zhang's house, and it seems that she has no plans to go back to Yu's house for the New Year.Her belly was already very big, and although some spots had grown on her face due to pregnancy, when she stroked her belly with her hand, the benevolent light on her body made her look a lot prettier.

Yun Xi looked at Zhang Yuan and felt that Yu Hao really had no discernment.Although Zhang Yuan couldn't compare to Du Yunyue in appearance, her temperament left Du Yunyue a block away.

She didn't think that Zhang Yuan would not know about Yu Hao's affairs, but she didn't seem to care at all, and her complexion was very good.

After Yun Xi said something to Zhang Yuan, she left.

When she got back into the carriage, Wu Ayu still had an expression of disbelief. She never expected that Yun Xi, Yu Hao's ex-fiancee, would have a harmonious relationship with his current wife.

Yun Xi chuckled and said, "Yu Hao is not good enough for Zhang Yuan."

Right now, she was looking forward to the Zhang family taking action against Yu Hao after the child was born.

After delivering the New Year gift, she went to the beef stall and bought fifty catties of beef.She came early, and since the Chinese New Year was approaching, the stall owner directly slaughtered two cows so that Yun Xi would not be unable to buy beef.

She was a little worried that Momoo would be uncomfortable carrying the beef, after all, he was also a cow.

Momoo didn't react at all, as if Yun Xi was just here to buy pork, Yun Xi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

She grabbed another handful of grass and fed Momoo as an apology.

After buying the beef, Yun Xi started looking for the narcissus stall from yesterday.After searching for about a quarter of an hour, I finally found it.

The stall owner was also very excited when he saw Yun Xi.He almost thought that Yun Xi was just tricking him.

Yun Xi looked at the booth and counted, there were 42 daffodil balls inside.

The stall owner waved his hand and said, "You can sell these for two hundred yuan. There are only these left in the river in front of my house, and there are no more."

Yun Xi paid for all of them, and then the three felt that such a lively scene should not be wasted, so they went shopping for a long time, bought a lot of gadgets and went back.Even Wu Ayu bought herself a pear-blossom wooden hairpin for a penny, and put it on her head directly.

For her, such a happy life is becoming less and less every day. On New Year's Eve, she must go home to celebrate the New Year.

Yun Xi comforted her, "Anyway, you're only staying at home for four days."

Wu Ayu thought about it, she had endured it for the past 12 years, and for no reason she couldn't bear it for four days, and her mood suddenly improved a lot.

In addition to beef and narcissus balls, Yun Xi also bought Spring Festival couplets and other things. Before she went out, Du Zhoushi had already given her enough money, and she was about to go back after buying everything.

Suddenly her sleeve was pulled by someone, Yun Xi turned her head and saw that it was Lai San's baby sister Lai Xiaosi who was pulling her sleeve.Lai Xiaosi is wearing two buns and wearing new pink clothes. When he looks at people timidly, he is so cute.

Yun Xi looked at her, her heart softened, "What's wrong?"

Lai Xiaosi pointed to the location of Wanshiwu, Yun Xi understood, I'm afraid Lai San has something to tell her.

She got off the bullock cart, told Yunyao and Wu Ayu to wait for her for a while, then took Lai Xiaosi's hand and went directly to Wanshiwu.

The Chinese New Year is approaching, and the Wanshiwu has been neatly tidied up. The red Spring Festival couplets have been pasted up, and a lot of red lanterns have been hung. Xi also received dividends.She felt that if she continued, the 70 taels she invested earlier would be able to recover the cost within half a year.

Wanshiwu was officially closed today, and the original hooligans inside put on new clothes one by one, and their spirits were different.After seeing Yun Xi, everyone was respectful and respectful. They knew in their hearts that they were able to make money and not be despised by others, it was all thanks to this weak little girl.

Even Yun Xi who taught them boxing skills can be regarded as their teacher in a sense.Respecting the teacher is more than just talking about it.

As the head of Wanshiwu, Lai San has his own independent office room, although the room is not too big, it just has a bookshelf, a desk, and a bed for resting.There are a few books scattered on the bookshelf.

Seeing her enter the house, Lai Xiaosi went out obediently and closed the door behind her.Lai San respectfully bowed to her as a disciple before getting up, let Yun Xi sit down again, and then said to her: "Du Yunyue has been taking care of her body during this period, and has taken a lot of food to help her conceive. drug."

The corner of Yun Xi's mouth twitched - does this mean that Du Yunyue has already slept with Yu Hao?

Lai San coughed and reminded Yun Xi, "I think her brows have faded..."

Yun Xi understood, it seemed that Du Yunyue was no longer a virgin.Maybe she just entered Yu's house with the intention of being pregnant.Even if Mrs. Yu doesn't want to see her anymore, she won't just watch her grandson wander outside.This is different from Du Zhangshi.Even if Widow Chen was pregnant with Du Yilian's child, Mrs. Du and Zhang would not even recognize the child because she disliked Widow Chen's filthiness.

The reason why Lai San collected these information was because Yun Xi was interested.

"One more thing, your aunt's natal family..."

Yun Xi raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong with the Zhou family?" She didn't have the slightest affection for the Zhou family, they were just a bunch of blood-sucking bugs.But in the eyes of the world, the Zhou family is kind to the Du Zhou family. If the Du Zhou family reveals that they want to sever the relationship, they will be labeled as ungrateful.

Lai San said: "Yuan Lili, Zhou He's granddaughter, was coaxed out of her innocence by a gangster, and now she is staying at Zhou's house to avoid the limelight."

Zhou He is the adoptive mother of the eldest aunt Du Zhou. After adopting Du Zhou, she gave birth to her son Zhou Yuan and daughter Zhou Jing.Zhou Yuan married his daughter-in-law 16 years ago, and now he has two sons under his knees.Zhou Jing married out of town, so Yuan Lili should be Zhou Jing's daughter.

Lai San said: "That gangster is the best friend of my brother, and he slipped his tongue at the wine table." In front of this girl Yun Xi, Lai San didn't have the nerve to pollute her ears with those vulgar words, but just reminded Yun Xi, "I can't guarantee this After the next time, the Zhou family will ask your aunt to help introduce a partner to Yuan Lili."

Yun Xi's face turned cold, "The Zhou family thinks well." After she returned, she had to tell her aunt about this matter, so that she would not be deceived when she returned to her mother's house.

She looked at Lai San, and her tone was much gentler, "Thanks to your hard work these days to find out these news."

It was rare for Lai San to be praised by her, and he didn't know how to put his hands and feet, and said repeatedly: "It's just a matter of raising a finger."

He said to Yun Xi again: "Before we helped the businessman surnamed Guan to escort a batch of precious goods, he sent three baskets of crabs yesterday, although they are not as fat as the crabs in September, but in this season, But it’s also rare. Ms. Du will take a basket back later.”

Yun Xi smiled slightly and said, "Thank you very much."

Crabs and shrimps before the Chinese New Year are not cheap, and there is no shortage of shrimps in Du's house. Villagers who have caught a lot of shrimps often send some to express their gratitude, but crabs are rare.

Yun Xi likes to eat crabs, and she knows Lai San's character well, if she doesn't accept it, it will make them think more.So she didn't shirk her refusal at all. In fact, she was quite satisfied with Lai San's temperament of knowing how to reciprocate, and planned to send some sausages and beef jerky over after a while.The news that Lai San told her today helped her a lot.

Yun Xi looked at the crabs that Lai San sent, each one was quite big, there were at least ten of them in a basket, it seemed that the Du family was lucky.

Carrying the basket in her left hand, she and Yunyao got into the bullock cart and went home.

Yun Xi moved all the food into the kitchen, just as Du Zhoushi was cooking shrimp in it.Shrimp hammering is to remove the shell and leave the tail of the shrimp, marinate it with salt, wine, and pepper, then dip it in dry powder, beat it with a wooden beater until it is as thin as a piece of paper, and then boil it in water.This hammer shrimp is crystal clear, and it tastes strong. Everyone in the Du family likes to eat it.

Yun Xi will take out four crabs, and continue to raise the rest with egg whites. This crab doesn't need to be complicated, just peel the shells and steam the crabs.

Du Zhoushi also likes to eat crabs very much, but crabs are cold in nature. In the past few days, she has started to take the prescription that Yunxi used Dongwuhua to give her to take care of her body, so she really can't touch this thing, she can only watch it The crab looked at the ocean and sighed.

Yun Xi smiled, "When you are healthy, auntie, you can eat as much as you like."

Du Zhoushi also laughed, "Even if it's recuperated, you can't eat too much of this crab, especially your little girl."

Yun Xi quickly changed the subject and talked to her about Yuan Lili.

Du Zhou's face darkened, apparently she also thought that the Zhou family was so active in asking her to go back to celebrate the New Year, not only for the New Year gift, but also for Yuan Lili.Sexual intercourse without a matchmaker is something that people look down upon in this era, not to mention that Yuan Lili lost her virginity to a hooligan.

She took a deep breath, but she still couldn't suppress the surging anger, "I think she was a smart girl when she was a child, why is she so self-absorbed when she grows up!"

Yun Xi just persuaded: "Anyway, let's just leave this mess alone. If they really ask you to help me, you can find an excuse to push it away."

Du Zhoushi nodded with a dark face.Yun Xi's heart moved: I feel that I can go to Lai San again tomorrow, at least I need to know who Yuan Lili's partner is, it's fine if the Zhou family is knowledgeable, if you want to use filial piety to suppress the aunt, don't blame her for being rude .It's not that Yun Xi treats a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart, but that the Zhou family's behavior over the years is really despised.

Because the house has been cleaned, Yun Xi basically uses it to make beef jerky in the afternoon.

When she was 28, she entered the city again, carrying two catties of beef jerky and three catties of sausages to the Wanshiwuwu, besides this, there was also a bright silk, which was to be given to Lai Xiaosi to make clothes of.

She will go to Zhou's house with Mrs. Du Zhou around the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.The Zhou family is located in Lvzhu Village, Maolin County, Lin County. The bamboo in their village is the most famous, and many people make a living as carpenters.

Lai San directly patted his chest and agreed, saying that he would definitely bring Yuan Lili's old friend Qi Feng with him.

That Qi Feng loves big fish and meat the most, Lai San only needs to treat him to a meal and give him two catties of white wine, he can't help but agree.

Yun Xi felt that she had done the right thing in accepting Lai San and his group. No, it was much easier to do things.

After she gave her orders, she happily went home to prepare for the New Year.

On the other side, Wu Ayu left Du's house with a sad face.

For Wu Ayu, the Wu family is the dragon's pond and tiger's den, and she has never had good memories here.When she returned home, she specially kept all her silk flower jewelry in the house where she lived in the Du family, and also specially changed into old clothes, in case her mother would take them away again.

To her surprise, when she returned home, Mrs. Wu greeted her with care, asking her from time to time if she was tired from working in Du's house, and even stopped Wu Ayu when she was about to sweep the floor, expressing that the work She does it all.Wu Ayu just needs a good rest these days.

Even Wu De, who originally thought she was a village girl and whose behavior was not worthy of being his sister, rarely looked at Wu Ayu with a pleasant face.After learning that Wu Ayu can even write his own words and count, he was even more overjoyed and praised Wu Ayu.

In the past, Wu Ayu was afraid that she would be overwhelmed with gratitude for the warm treatment of her relatives.It's just that Wu Ayu basically stayed by Yun Xi's side for the past few months, and even learned to do business and deal with people.Don't look at her silent temperament that is still silent on the surface, but she has already made a qualitative leap in her dealings with the world.Instead, vigilance arose in her heart—to be courteous for nothing, to rape or steal.

Her heart was cold: it is ironic that she has to be so defensive when dealing with her own blood relatives.Whenever this time, she was particularly envious of the warm atmosphere of the Du family.

After a day, Mrs. Wu, who felt that she had done about the same, really revealed her purpose.

"Ayu, don't you make a lot of money selling those sticks of incense? There should be at least 20 taels of silver a month, right?"

When Wu Ayu heard this question, she immediately raised her vigilance. She lowered her head, pretending to be taciturn and dull in front of her family in the past, "I, I don't know much about this either."

Mrs. Wu was obviously not very satisfied with such an answer. If she hadn't needed to ask Wu Ayu, she would have slapped her, "You work in the store every day, how could you not know?"

Wu Ayu shrank her neck, "I just wash the dishes and tidy up the chopsticks in the store, and I don't know about other things."

Wulao Niang said with a sullen face, "You don't know how to make those sticks of incense?"

Wu Ayu actually knew something, but at this time she just made up her mind to insist that she didn't know.Compared with these vampire-like relatives, the Du family treated her better, and she was unwilling to betray Yun Xi and the others.

Mrs. Wu got angry and said, "Really, what's the use of giving birth to a fool like you!"

After she got angry for a while, she said to Wu Ayu: "I think that girl Yunxi is quite good at making money, and she is barely worthy of Ade. I think you can talk good things about Ade to her when you have time." , if you can marry into our family earlier, you can earn money for the Wu family."

She looked at the Du family's new house and eating meat every day, and she was very envious.Seeing her daughter's ruddy face, she knew that she probably ate better than her at Du's house.

Wu Ayu lowered her eyes to hide the sarcasm in her eyes: In her eyes, a hundred Wu De's flatterers can't compare to Yun Xi, it's just wishful thinking, a toad wants to eat swan meat.

She finally understood why everyone's attitude towards her had changed 180 degrees in the past two days. It turned out that it was Yun Xi's idea.

Mrs. Wu was still rambling beside her, "You're fine, remember to beat the side drum more, and let her save more money by the way, those are all her ideas, don't give so much to Du Yifu and the others stupidly. Yes, as a girl, you have to be diligent and keep your duty, why bother to buy those jewelry all day long, it’s better to save all the money to buy land.”

People who don't know think that Mrs. Wu is thinking about Yun Xi so much, but Wu Ayu knows very well that her mother just regards Du Yunxi as her future daughter-in-law, and thinks that all the money should belong to their Wu family, so in that I feel sorry for Yun Xi's extravagant spending.

She just listened in silence, the last gleam of light in her eyes was extinguished.

Mrs. Wu thought she had said enough, so she waved her hand and let Wu Ayu go.

As soon as Wu Ayu came out of Mrs. Wu's room, her older brother Wu De came over and tried to smile at Wu Ayu that he thought was kind, "Ayu, we brothers and sisters haven't spoken for a long time."

After Wu Ayu went through the incident just now, she realized that Wu De was also coming for Yun Xi.

Just as she expected, Wu De began to speak well of himself in front of her, almost boasting that he was a star of Wenqu.

After a quarter of an hour of praising himself, he looked at his younger sister firmly and said, "Ah Yu, I heard that you and Yun Xi have a very good relationship. You also want to have a sister-in-law like Yun Xi." He Pausing for a moment, he said meaningfully: "If Yun Xi gets married as soon as possible, I can find a good marriage for you."

Wu Ayu's expression froze. At this moment, she understood Wu De's implication. Wu De was directly threatening her with her marriage. He really was a scholar. He used his crooked brains better than Mrs. Wu. The snake hits seven inches.

Wu Ayu tightly pinched the palm of her own hand, she still had an obedient look on her face, but her heart was full of sadness—this is her relatives.

……

On the other hand, Yun Xi didn't know what happened to the Wu family. The eldest family of the Du family was already welcoming the new year.

Spring Festival couplets were pasted on the door, and red cut flowers were pasted on the windows, most of which were auspicious patterns. Before the Chinese New Year, there were many stalls selling them in the city, and a piece of happiness and longevity only cost one penny.Du Zhou bought several cut flowers of sweet-scented osmanthus and jujube and pasted them in front of his window, hoping to give birth to a son early.

As for Yun Xi, she bought a picture of a spring cow.The owner of the flower-cut shop is a woman in her thirties. She looks ordinary, but she is ingenious. The cut flowers sold in her shop do not have the usual craftsmanship.The woman even cut it according to Moo Moo, and the spring cow on it seemed to be imprinted from the same mold as Moo Moo, especially the way it was wagging its tail.As for the awn god on the spring ox god, it looks like a cowherd with delicate features.

Yun Yao also asked the man to cut the pattern of the puppy chasing its tail, the puppy was naturally cut according to the god of war, Yun Yao specially carried the god of war to the city for this reason.

In a blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve.

In the evening, Mrs. Du came here uninvited. Although she usually lives in Sanfang's house, on New Year's Eve, she usually has to spend the New Year with her eldest son.

But in the past few years, when Sanfang developed better than Dafang, Du Zhangshi also stayed with Du Yilian and the others for Sanfang's food.

On the morning of New Year's Eve, Yunxi and the others had already prepared all the things needed for the New Year.In the morning, they prepared a sumptuous meal to pay homage to the ancestors of the Du family.

Naturally, Mrs. Du and Zhang came over, and the third room of the Du family followed suit.

Although Du Yifu severed ties with his younger brother, Du Yilian was not expelled from the Du family's genealogy, so the third family wanted to come to worship, and Du Yifu couldn't stop them, so he could only pinch his nose and let them in.

Braised pork, duck paste, steamed pork, roast lamb, eight-treasure rice, braised chicken... all kinds of delicacies exude a tempting aroma.

Du Yong and Du Qiang from the Sanfang family couldn't control their emotions, their eyes were glued to these meals, and they couldn't move away, their eyes were full of longing.If it was before, I'm afraid that these two children would just ignore Dafang's feelings and stay to eat, but in the past six months, because Sanfang's reputation is worse than that of sewer water, they have been ridiculed and ridiculed by people in the village. It can be regarded as having tasted all the hardships, and only then did I understand the so-called patience.

Du Hongshi looked at the sumptuous dishes, and saw that Dafang's whole family was wrapped in silk and satin, and he didn't even have new cotton clothes for the New Year, so he could only wear last year's clothes, not to mention hatred in his heart.

As for Du Yunyue, her performance was not much better, she looked at Yun Xi with malicious intent.What she values ​​most is appearance, as long as Yun Xi is around, people will not notice her.

Yun Xi noticed the eyes of the mother and daughter and sneered in her heart.Could it be that the two of them are still not good at learning?
Her eyes narrowed slightly, it doesn't matter if the method is old, as long as it works.

With her mind moving, the three god tablets fell again, one on Du Hong's head, one on Du Yunyue's nose, and the third on Du Yilian's forehead.

Yun Xi still managed to control her strength. After the fall, although it hurt them, it was not as bloody as the first time.

Everyone was dumbfounded. They thought that the smashing of Mrs. Du and Du Hong was a rare event in a hundred years. Who knew that such a similar scene would happen again during today's worship.

Du Zhangshi subconsciously stroked her chest, feeling very fortunate in her heart: Fortunately, she was not smashed today, so it can be seen that during this period of time, she treated Dafang's family well, and was very satisfied with being seen by her ancestors.Otherwise, why did the god card only hit the three of them?
After rejoicing, she became dissatisfied, and pointed at the three of them and cursed: "The third family, you see that you are so vicious that even the ancestors can't stand it, so I will punish you again. There is another company. Today, the ancestors smashed you, it must be Because you have always wanted to let Widow Chen in, this is a warning from your ancestors, are you still unwilling to listen to your mother?"

Yun Xi almost laughed out loud: This Du Zhang family is also a talent, he adjusted his mood in an instant, and took this opportunity to prevent Widow Chen from entering the door.Her current ability to control four plants is not a problem, but seeing that her performance in Du Zhang's period is not bad, she was only let go today.

Du Yilian encountered this kind of thing for the first time, saying that he was not afraid would be a lie, but he was also very obsessed with Chen Widow's body, for a moment, he hesitated: "Mother, she is pregnant with my child after all."

Du Zhang was furious, "The ancestors are all angry, and you still refuse to repent!"

Du Yunxi coughed, and said: "The ancestor punished him because of Widow Chen, and Du Hongshi because she had a vicious mind and murdered my aunt. But, why did the ancestor get angry at Yunyue today? Could it be that Yunyue also Did you do something shameful?"

She turned the topic to Du Yunyue.

Du Yunyue's face turned pale, obviously remembering her affair with Yu Hao Wumei, her eyes flustered, but she still forced herself to be calm, "What nonsense are you talking about? How do I know?"

Du Zhangshi also looked at Du Yunyue suspiciously, "Yeah, what have you done?" Otherwise, it was all right, why did the god card smash her?

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Du Yunyue felt more and more guilty. In the cold weather, cold sweat even broke out on her forehead. She snorted and said, "Anyway, I didn't do anything wrong."

It seemed that she was afraid that if she continued to stay, the ancestors of the Du family would show up to punish her, so Du Yunyue didn't even dare to stay any longer, and ran out directly.

Du Zhangshi was so angry that she almost fainted, and glared at Du Hongshi viciously, "Look at you, the good daughter you have taught! I don't know what I did to make my ancestors angry! No, after I go back You have to make a distinction with her."

Mrs. Du obviously wants to investigate this matter.

Du Hong himself couldn't protect himself, so he picked up the three god tablets and put them back. After worshiping, he took his two sons who were still reluctant to part with the food and left, not even daring to stay for food.

The same is true for Du Yilian, in front of the public and being taught by his ancestors, he only felt that Dafang's family looked at them with such contempt, which made him unable to stay any longer.

Yun Xi believed that with today's incident, the Sanfang family would have a psychological shadow on the ancestral hall.

Seeing their performance, the people in the big room feel very comfortable.

Du Zhang, who was not hit by the god's tablet, looked at the table of food with nostalgia, obviously wanting to eat it.

Mrs. Du Zhou smiled slightly and said, "Mother, you can stay and spend the holiday with us today." With Mrs. Du's temperament, she would definitely find a reason to stay, so she might as well be a favor and sell it well. .The current Du Zhou's method is obviously far from the previous method.

Du Zhang was overjoyed, thinking that this eldest daughter-in-law could really speak, she pretended to be reluctant, "Since you all want me to stay so much, I will spend the New Year with you."

Yun Yao curled her lips, she didn't have a good impression of this patriarchal grandma who bullied the weak and feared the hard, and could change the direction of the wind.Yun Xi pulled Yunyao's sleeve, and Yunyao showed a happy expression in cooperation.

After the worship, Mrs. Du heated some of the dishes a little, and the family sat down to eat.

Undoubtedly, Mrs. Du has never eaten such a delicious meal.Looking at her expression, I wish I could grow another stomach so that I can put all my favorite delicacies in it.

Judging by her expression, she seemed to wish she could stay in the big room all the time.Now she feels that she was a big idiot who was partial to the third bedroom before.

Seeing it in Yun Xi's eyes, alarm bells rang loudly in her heart.She didn't want to live under the same roof as Mrs. Du and Zhang. She suddenly remembered the brochure that Yun Shen had given her. The last prescription was a kind of incense. After using it, it would make people restless and prone to nightmares.

She acted first, and said to Du Zhangshi: "It's a rare Chinese New Year, so you can stay at home for a few days."

Du Zhang was overjoyed when she heard the words, flattered and said: "Is it really possible?" What she is most afraid of now is Yun Xi.

Yun Xi smiled and nodded.After Du Zhangshi had nightmares for several days in a row, she would never think about it again.

Du Zhou looked at Yun Xi hesitantly.It's just that Yun Xi has already agreed to this matter, and it's not good if she objects, so she can only clean up a room as Du Zhang's resting place.

After lunch, while Mrs. Du was going to see her room, she pulled Yun Xi into the room and asked, "Why do you suddenly want your mother-in-law to live in?"

Yun Xi pursed her lips and smiled, said her idea again, and added: "Don't worry, that kind of incense is not harmful to people's body, it just makes her have nightmares for a while. You see, when she eats at noon The look in her eyes clearly shows that she wants to live with us from now on. She is also the elder of you and uncle, you can stop her for a while, but you can't stop her forever, why don't you take this opportunity to dispel her thoughts. "

Du Zhoushi nodded, while Yun Xi went back to her room to make incense.

Because of Yunxi, the Du family's most inexhaustible thing was medicinal materials. The above herbs happened to be common ones, and Yunxi quickly prepared them.Then let Yunyao drag Du Zhangshi to talk.

Although Yunyao didn't like grandma, she was still obedient and obeyed.

Not only did Du Zhang have no doubts about this, but she was also very happy. Now she is full of thoughts about getting along with Dafang so that she can have a good time with Dafang, so when facing Yunyao, she called a With a pleasant face, she completely forgot the scene where she called Yun Yao "losing money" and "dead girl" in the past.

Yun Xi took this opportunity to put the incense in the charcoal fire in the house.This kind of incense has a very light taste, and it is quite similar to bamboo charcoal. I am not afraid that Mrs. Du will be suspicious.

After she was done, she left blithely and returned to her room.

In the evening, Mrs. Du and Zhang happily stayed for dinner, and she also greeted Mrs. Du Zhou with care, "Sissy, how is your health recently? It's cold now, so you need to add more clothes. Look, it's still snowing outside now." Woolen cloth."

Those who don't know her past will think that she is Da Chu's good mother-in-law.

Turning around, he said to Du Yifu: "Although you don't have any sons now, I think Yunyao and Yunxia are both very capable, equal to a hundred sons in other families. Don't be like your third brother, who is a bunch of fools. Do you think people like Widow Chen can enter our house? The reputation of our old Du family will be ruined."

In terms of hating concubines, Du Zhang still has merit.

Yun Xi couldn't help complaining in her heart: The Du family's reputation was ruined by her and the Du Hong family, okay?Don't think that now that she has changed, everyone will forget what she did before.

She ate in silence without saying anything.

Throughout the night, Yun Xi and the others hardly spoke, only Du and Zhang chattered over there.But in Du Zhang's eyes, she was connecting with Dafang, and she thought it was quite successful.

Many customs of Da Chu are very similar to Yun Xi's previous life, and there is also the custom of keeping the year old, at least in Fenghuang County.

Generally speaking, you have to wait until the rooster crows.

Yun Xi directly picked up a book, read it slowly, and passed the time, while Yun Yao directly wrote the arithmetic problems that Yun Xi set for her, with a look of bitterness and hatred on her face, wishing she could do some boxing Express your depressed mood.

After all, what Yun Xi used to test her was the Mathematical Olympiad, and in her eyes, it was simply a heavenly book.Yun Xi felt that it would be beneficial for her cousin to learn more, so she unceremoniously used those questions from her previous life to harm her.

Du Zhang was still talking to the elder son's family at the beginning, but then he couldn't hold it anymore and began to feel drowsy.After all, she ate too much during the day, and when she felt sleepy, she simply couldn't resist it.

Du Zhoushi smiled softly, "Mom, why don't you go to rest first, the cock crowed for the first time just now, and it's almost time to wait until now."

Du Zhang's spirit lifted, she was waiting for this word.She hurriedly said, "Then I'll go to rest first."

Before leaving, he took out a red envelope and gave it to Yunyao, his granddaughter.As for Yun Xi, she has already severed ties with Du Zhang, so naturally there is no red envelope.But if Yun Xi is willing to recognize Du Zhangshi again, Du Zhangshi would be very happy.

Yunyao pretended to be happy and accepted the red envelope, and after Mrs. Du and Zhang left, she opened it and looked at it, only to find that there were only two cents in it.She curled her lips, "Stingy."

Yun Xi nodded her forehead, "If you have it, you should be satisfied. If it was before, you wouldn't even want to get a penny."

Du Yunyao nodded, feeling that her cousin was right.In the past, Du Qiang and Du Yong were the two grandsons who received red envelopes from the Du family. I heard that Du Yunyue would also receive a penny in red envelopes.

Du Zhang watched the two girls in their family chatting with a smile, and took out two purses, "Here, the lucky money for you two."

No matter how capable Yun Xi is, she is still her junior.

Yun Xi took the purse and squeezed it. From the weight and texture of the pinch, she could probably guess that it contained a tael of silver.Yunyao has been in business for several months, and after collecting money for so long, she can easily figure it out, so she immediately flattered her with a smile on her face, "You're still generous."

Then he looked at Du Yifu eagerly, Du Yifu was startled, "Isn't your mother giving it to me?" They are a husband and wife.

Yun Yao didn't buy it, she still looked at Du Yifu eagerly.In the end, Du Yifu was defeated by her gaze, so he could only take out all the money on his body as lucky money for Yun Xi and Yun Yao.

After such a quarrel, the atmosphere became more and more warm.

After another hour of gossip, everyone went to rest.At dawn, I still have to get up to entertain guests, so naturally I have to keep my spirits up.

Yun Xi and Yun Yao's room is adjacent, before Yun Yao entered the room, she patted Yun Yao's shoulder and handed her a red purse, "A red envelope for you."

Yun Yao took the purse, the purse was very light, it didn't feel like copper coins or silver, but like paper.

Du Yunyao's eyes lit up instantly, it must be a silver ticket.And the smallest share of banknotes is ten taels of silver.

She immediately acted like a baby on Yun Xi, "Sure enough, my sister is the most generous!"

Yun Xi pushed her, "Go to sleep." What she gave Yun Yao was ten taels of silver.

Yun Yao, who made a small fortune, looked like she was taking advantage of her boss, and seeing Yun Xi was angry and funny.

After returning to the room, she quickly washed up and went to rest.

After a good night's sleep, the next day, the people in the big room were all dressed in new clothes and ready to welcome the visiting guests.In stark contrast to them was Du Zhangshi. Du Zhangshi obviously slept longer than them, but his eye sockets were black and blue, and his eyes were dull.

Yun Xi snickered: It seems that the incense is really powerful.

She pretended to be kind, "Why don't you go to sleep again?"

A trace of panic flashed in Du Zhangshi's eyes, and she shook her head again and again, "No, I won't sleep!" Thinking of those terrifying images in the dream, she couldn't help shaking.Throughout the night, she was completely trapped in a nightmare, and she never had a good rest at all. After waking up, she was as tired as if she had been in a fight.

Yun Xi, Yunyao, and Du Zhoushi were all insiders, so they naturally discouraged Du Zhangshi from taking a rest, otherwise his spirit would be too bad.

Du Zhangshi looked out of the window, thinking that in broad daylight, she should not have nightmares again, and she was really sleepy now, so she finally went back to her room to catch up on sleep.

As someone who was kept in the dark, Du Yifu had a puzzled expression on his face, "Mother, what's wrong?"

Yun Xi pointed, "Who knows? It must have been a nightmare."

The weight of her bet is not small, enough to give Du Zhangshi a few days of nightmares.Yun Xi silently bowed to her with crocodile tears.

Du Zhoushi put out the fruit refreshments at home, ready to entertain guests.Because of the persimmon cake incident, the Du family became the most popular person in the village this year, and many people came to visit.Most people will carry some small gifts in their hands. Although the gifts are not expensive, they are also part of their hearts.

Yun Xi and the others cheered up to entertain them, and to her surprise, the Wu family, who had always stayed away from their family, also came to their door.Mrs. Wu was still holding Yun Xi's hand, praising her over and over again, looking at Yun Xi with a certain sense of superiority made Yun Xi feel uncomfortable.

After Mrs. Wu left, Yun Xi stroked the goosebumps on her hands, frowned and asked Du Zhou: "Ma'am, what's going on with this Wu family? Why are you so affectionate to us all of a sudden?"

Du Zhou also looked puzzled, "I don't know, is it because we treat Ayu well?"

Yun Xi snorted, "How could it be because of Ayu. They only have Wu De in their eyes, how can there be a daughter like Ayu?"

She thought about it for a long time, but she couldn't think of the reason. In addition, guests came to the door one after another, so she could only put this matter aside for the time being.Anyway, Ayu will be back by the fourth day of junior high school, and it is also okay to ask her directly at that time.

The guests in the big room basically didn't stop, and Yun Xi basically didn't stop talking all morning, which was called a dry mouth. Later, she drank a large glass of honey water, and her throat felt a little more comfortable.

When it was approaching noon, it was not good that there were fewer guests visiting the door.What made Yun Xi happy was that Du Yunxia took her husband Lin De back to her natal home to celebrate the New Year.

I saw Du Yunxia wearing a pink dress embroidered with wishful patterns, gentle and generous, with a silver hairpin stuck on her head, one could tell from her attire that she had a good life recently.They also brought gifts when they came over, mainly two catties of native eggs and one catty of homemade salted duck eggs.Du Yunxia's mother-in-law has nothing to do at home. She raises a brood of chickens and can produce a few eggs every day.

Yun Xi had eaten their eggs once, and liked them very much.After Du Yunxia found out, she gave some away every time she came over. As for the salted duck eggs, everyone in the Du family likes to serve them with white porridge, so Du Yunxia also brought some along the way.It was also because of Yun Xi that the Lin family was able to make a small fortune during this period of time, so Du Yunxia's mother-in-law not only had no opinion at all, but also wished for her daughter-in-law to have a better relationship with her natal cousin.

Noticing Yun Xi's gaze on her head, Du Yunxia lowered her head, her tone was a little shy, but joyful, "Ade gave me this hairpin."

If she lives well, Yun Xi and the others will be happy.

Du Yifu took Linde to a nearby room for a drink, while Du Zhoushi took the opportunity to ask her daughter how her business was during this time.

Du Yunxia's eyes were full of joy, "Mom, I've been doing well recently. Ade and I have saved nearly 100 taels of silver during this time, and Ade directly bought [-] acres of land, all of which I remember It's under my name." After all, the Lin family didn't split up, if Lin De's name was written, it would be split up by her brother-in-law in the future.

Du Yunxia looked at Yun Xi gratefully, "It's all thanks to the good idea Yun Xi gave us, but unfortunately, this business can only be done in March. The foreman said that in about March, the river embankment Just reinforce it." By March, they should be able to save another 60 taels of silver.

Even if they didn't stop making lunch boxes in the future, the [-] acres of land would be enough for the husband and wife to eat and wear.

But watching her natal family flourish, Du Yunxia also felt a surge of motivation in her heart.She asked Yun Xi softly, "I plan to open a shop after the box lunch business is over next year. Yun Xi, what do you think I should sell? My mother-in-law and the others think that our family can sell eggs and duck eggs. My mother-in-law recently bought two more. Ten chickens and twenty ducks said that the eggs are sold directly, and the duck eggs can be marinated into salted duck eggs, and then sold. But I think there are several stores in the city that sell salted duck eggs. How can our family sell those stores. "

Eggs and duck eggs... Yun Xi was thoughtful, then she had a flash of inspiration and smiled, "Sister, I have an idea. You can sell tea eggs and preserved eggs."

"If you are worried that people are not used to the taste of preserved eggs, you can set up a small stall at the beginning and try to sell preserved eggs and lean meat porridge." In her previous life, her friend was not used to the taste of preserved eggs, but she liked eating preserved eggs and lean meat porridge.

Du Yunxia's eyes lit up, "How do you make preserved eggs and tea eggs?" She paused, and said to Yun Xi: "My dear sister, I don't take your idea for nothing. By then, the monthly income will be a certain amount." I'll give you [-]%."

Yun Xi now earns more than 100 taels of silver every month, so she really doesn't like this dividend.In addition, when Du Yunxia was not married, she had always taken good care of her, and she was also willing to make this sister's life better.She said to Yunxia: "Sister, you don't need to give it to me, as long as I want to eat, you all remember to give me some."

Du Zhou said, "Your third sister is a rich man now."

The method of making tea eggs is very simple. Yun Xi directly explained the steps, and Du Yunxia had already memorized them.Then she repeated the steps of the preserved egg three times before Du Yunxia memorized it completely.Yun Xi wanted to write it down, but Du Yunxia only knew her own name, and her education level was not as good as Du Yunyao's.Yun Yao has studied and practiced calligraphy with Yun Xi in the past few months, at least she can recognize a lot of characters.

Du Yunxia quietly memorized the steps beside her, and after she nodded to show that she had memorized it, Yun Xi said to her: "Sister, you will have to separate sooner or later, tea eggs are fine, but the recipe for preserved eggs, You have to keep it in your own hands, and you can’t leak it out.”

To be honest, Lin De's younger brother Lin Zhi is really not a particularly reliable person. In modern times, he is the so-called gnawing old man, but Lin De's father Lin Xiongwei dotes on him again, thinking that he looks like himself.If it weren't for the more reliable mother-in-law Lin Sun in the family, otherwise the Lin family's property would have been ruined by him.

Du Yunxia had previously told Yun Xi that his father-in-law basically gave Lin Zhi the three taels of silver they sent home every month.

If Du Yunxia and her husband hadn't saved more than ten taels of silver privately every month, they would have been suffocated to death.

Du Yunxia naturally understands the hurdles involved, she is gentle but not uninhibited, she nodded, "I just said, this prescription belongs to our Du family, and my parents don't allow me to reveal it."

Mrs. Du Zhou laughed, and nodded her eldest daughter's head, "Okay, you have also learned to use me as a raft."

But as a mother, it is also willing to carry an insignificant blame for her daughter.

Yun Xi was still coming up with bad ideas, "Well, you and your in-law's family are talking about the proceeds of preserved eggs, and our Du family wants [-]%. In fact, you keep the [-]% yourself."

This is for the convenience of the eldest sister to save private money.

Du Yunxia nodded, and Du Zhoushi remembered the prescription Yun Xi gave her to recuperate her body, and asked Du Yunxia to go back and eat it.Du Yunxia is almost 17 now, and it's time to think about her children.

Seeing that the two of them were going to talk about the boudoir, Yun Xi dragged Yun Yao, who didn't know why, out.

At night, Du Zhangshi also regained consciousness.Seeing her blank eyes, it was obvious that she still hadn't had a good rest in the afternoon, and even the delicious food on the table couldn't attract her anymore.

Seeing it, Yun Xi snickered over there.It seems that the effect of the incense is really not so good!

After dinner, both Du Yunxia and Lin De stayed overnight, planning to go back the next morning.

Before they left, Mrs. Du did not forget to ask her daughter to carry two catties of sausages back.

As soon as Du Yunxia left, Du Zhang couldn't sit still anymore, and said to Du Zhou: "I'm used to sleeping in the bed of the third family, so I'd better go back."

In the past two days, everyone who lives in her old house has not slept well. It has always been a nightmare. Every time she wakes up, she is more tired than if she had not rested. Du Zhang's dark circles are so heavy that she can't see anyone.

She felt that her house and the old family's house were absolutely in harmony with Feng Shui, otherwise, she would have nightmares as soon as she lived in it.

Thinking of this, Du Zhang couldn't help sighing: Maybe she didn't have a happy life.

Du Zhoushi, who knew the inside story, and Yun Xi and the others looked at each other and smiled, and Du Zhoushi smiled gently, "Mother, why don't you stay longer?"

Stay for a while longer... This thought made Du Zhangshi tremble, she had had enough of the nightmares for the whole day, and now she was so sleepy, she just wanted to go back to her original bed and have a good sleep .

She quickly said: "I know you are filial, but I'm still more used to my original bed, I accept the bed."

After Du Zhoushi "sincerely" persuaded her to stay for a while, she let Du Zhangshi go back, but before she went back, she gave Du Zhangshi a new quilt, which should be regarded as a waste of money and disaster relief.

Holding the soft and warm quilt, Du Zhangshi dispelled the last bit of unwillingness in her heart, and praised Du Zhoushi again and again.

After successfully sending Du Zhang away, Du Zhou could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.After getting used to being the master of her own family, she doesn't want to be under the same roof as her mother-in-law.

……

When it was the fourth day of junior high school, Mrs. Du took Yun Yao and Yun Xi to go back to her parents' house.

Originally, Yun Xi didn't need to go, but she was really worried about her aunt, so she simply followed.

Before going, Yun Xi did not forget to say hello to Lai San, and Lai San patted Yun Xi's chest as a guarantee, "I have already said hello to Na Qifeng, and we two will definitely follow you, the heroine, on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year." Let's go together, if you need us to take action, hang a red cloth on the peach tree in front of Zhou's house."

Qi Feng is the hooligan who had a good relationship with Yuan Lili before.This person's appearance is still very passable, and he is good at smooth talk, so he can easily fool Yuan Lili.Originally, after Qi Feng ruined Yuan Lili's innocence, he also thought about marrying her responsibly.It's just that Yuan Lili's mother, Zhou Jing, didn't want her daughter to follow such a gangster, so she took Yuan Lili back to her natal family to avoid the limelight.He also scolded Qi Feng face to face.

Two years ago, Qi Feng entered the cell because of a fight. At that time, he offended a boss in the cell and was almost beaten to death. It was a younger brother of Lai San who interceded.It was precisely because of this reason that this time Qi Feng would simply take Lai Sanliang's good wine and deal with it this time.

The weather on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year was not bad, at least there were no more snowflakes. The snow fell intermittently in the past few days, and the ground was covered with a layer of snow that was not too thick.

Yun Xi felt sorry for her Momoo who had to go out to pick them up in such cold weather, so she specially made a pair of wool shoes for Moomoo, and before leaving, she even fed him two apples, and put three apples and some grass.

As for Yun Yao, she was reluctant to part with the God of War in her arms.When she went to grandma's house this time, she would definitely have to wait until the sixth day to come back.She couldn't help but repeatedly told Du Yifu to take good care of God of War.

Du Yifu kept shaking his head as he listened beside him, feeling that his status was not as important as a dog, so he drove Yunyao to the bullock cart angrily and amusedly.

After making full preparations, the three of them set off for Maolin County in an ox cart.Maolin County is not far from Fenghuang County. If you take a bullock cart, you can leave in the morning and arrive in the afternoon.

Both Yun Xi and Yun Yao are beauties, especially Yun Xi, who is sitting on a bullock cart and wearing a blue dress, not to mention how eye-catching.So when they entered the Green Bamboo Village, many eyes were fixed on them, apparently curious about which family they were visiting.

People depend on clothes. After several months of recuperation, Du Zhou's complexion is rosy, and his appearance is several years younger than before. It can be said that there is a world of difference.In addition, she has been married for nearly 20 years, and she only comes back every year during Chinese New Year, so not many people recognize her.

Until the bullock cart stopped in front of Zhou's house, the neighbors who had been watching the excitement were all stunned.

One of the women had a fairly good memory, and she looked at Du Zhoushi with disbelief, "You, are you Sissy?"

This woman, Youshi, used to secretly give Du Zhoushi half a bowl of rice when she was hungry when she was a child. Du Zhoushi had a good impression of her and smiled slightly, "It's me, ma'am, your body still looks very good." Healthy."

It was only then that Youshi stepped forward and held Du Zhoushi's hand, "Oh, you've become so hard that I can hardly recognize you." Her eyes were on Yun Xi, and she couldn't look away. Among them, I have never seen such a beautiful girl as Yun Xi.She thought to herself: Even the lady from Yuanwai's family is not so good-looking.

"Are these two your daughters? They look so pretty."

Du Zhou could not help laughing, "This is Yun Xi, my niece, but she is not much different from my daughter. This is Yun Yao, my youngest daughter."

Yun Yao called out sweetly, "Happy New Year, Grandma You."

Yun Xi also bowed to her gracefully and politely. Listening to the little girl's soft voice, Youshi smiled until his eyes narrowed into a line.

Other people from Lvzhu Village also gathered around and greeted Du Zhou's family very warmly. Anyone could see that Du Zhou's husband's family was well-off.

They were so lively outside, the people inside naturally couldn't sit still when they heard the commotion.

When Yun Xi saw an old woman in her early fifties who looked energetic and shrewd, she couldn't help curling her lips: This should be Du Zhou's adoptive mother, Zhou He, who came out with Zhou He? There was the aunt Zhou Hanshi, and Zhou Hanshi pretended to stroke her hair, and said, "Oh, you came here as soon as you came. Why did you bring so many things? It's too expensive." She said so , but took the initiative to pick up the gift from Du Zhoushi.

Du Zhou prepared a hen, ten catties of rice, three catties of meat, and half a bolt of cotton cloth.

Zhou He also followed his daughter-in-law's words and said modestly: "It's fine if you come alone, and you still bring so much rice, how heavy it is. Oh, why didn't my son-in-law come with you?" She seemed a little displeased.

Du Zhoushi said: "He has to stay at home to entertain guests. Plus we are busy these days..."

Yun Xi smiled slightly and said, "My aunt is filial. I heard that your family is eating moldy rice now, so I hurriedly brought some rice over here, for fear that your mother-in-law will get sick from eating it."

The smile on Zhou He's face froze—is this dead girl cursing her to be sick?
As a neighbor, You Shi didn't know the situation of the Zhou family, so he asked suspiciously: "Sissi, who told you that your mother ate moldy rice? How did the Zhou family fall to this point."

Yun Yao innocently said, "Huh? No? My aunt sent two catties of moldy rice to our family. I thought my grandma's family ate rice like this."

As soon as the words fell, everyone was in an uproar.Everyone never expected that the Zhou family's annual gift to their married daughter was so unbearable. Compare it with the generous gift from the Du Zhou family.While lamenting the generosity of the Du Zhou family, everyone despised the Zhou family even more.

Zhou He gave Zhou Han a hard look. As for Zhou Han, she turned blue under the contempt of everyone.How could she have expected that Yun Xi and Yun Yao would directly reveal this matter in public.

Du Zhoushi coughed and said, "Okay, brother and sister just got the wrong New Year gift accidentally."

Seeing it, everyone felt that the Du Zhou family was a good person, and a woman who was at odds with the Zhou Han family said sarcastic remarks, "Qi Qian, you always think too well of people, how can this year's ceremony be so good?" Take it wrong. Don’t always put your hot face on other people’s cold buttocks. You treat them as relatives, and they only see you as the water thrown out.”

Zhou He saw that the reputation of the Zhou family would be lost if everyone continued talking, so she hurriedly interrupted: "The old three families are so messed up, and they are so careless in doing things, but she has no bad intentions."

Everyone hummed, obviously not believing the excuse.

Zhou He could only signal Du Zhou to go in quickly.

Before entering the house, Yun Xi did not forget to say to the villagers of Luzhu Village: "My cow has a bad temper and loves to kick people. Don't come close to it casually."

The others watched Momoo stick out his tongue and lick Yun Xi's hand affectionately, thinking that Yun Xi was joking.

Entering the house, apart from Zhou Hanshi with a dark face, Yun Xi also saw a woman in her thirties and 40s and a girl about fifteen years old.The girl was wearing a pink dress, her appearance could only be described as average.Without an introduction, Yun Xi guessed the identities of these two people. One should be Zhou Jing, the daughter of the Zhou Han family, and the other should be Zhou Jing's daughter, Yuan Lili.

Yuan Lili's eyes were fixed on the white jade hairpin on Yun Xi's head and the delicate dress, her eyes were full of jealousy.As the saying goes, people compare themselves to others, and people are pissed off.

She turned her head to look at Yun Yao again, and became even more angry.Yunyao is wearing the same pink skirt as Yuan Lili today, but Yuan Lili is made of ordinary cotton cloth, while Yunyao's skirt is made of cloud silk with delicate pear flowers embroidered on it. The skirt style is a fashionable pomegranate skirt .Whether it's texture or style, Yuan Lili has been left behind by a block.On Yunyao's head was also a hairpin with a green butterfly, this hairpin was given to Yun Xi by Mrs. Zeng, and Yun Xi gave it to Yun Yao in turn.

Yunyao also met Yuan Lili in Zhou's house before, and she was also a granddaughter. Yuan Lili was much more favored in Zhou's house than Yunyao's. In addition, Yuan's family was better off than Du's at that time, so Yuan Lili was always in front of Yunyao. High-spirited, but now the feng shui turns.Yuan Lili was naturally very upset.

Zhou He looked kindly, "This is my granddaughter Lili, Yunyao, you and Lili are cousins, so we can just kiss each other."

Yuan Lili smiled and said: "Yes, Sister Yunyao is so beautiful that I can hardly recognize her."

She walked directly to Yunyao's side, "Sister Yunyao's hairpin is so pretty, I'd like to lend it to my sister to wear it for two days." Then she quickly took it off, lovingly stroking the hairpin.

Yun Yao was so angry that her eyes were almost red, she grabbed the hairpin and stared at Yuan Lili: "This is my hairpin, I won't give it to you."

Seeing that her daughter was suffering, Zhou Han immediately frowned, and said arrogantly: "Yunyao, how can you treat your cousin like this? Your cousin is just watching."

How could Yun Xi look at this mother and daughter bullying her cousin, her cherry-colored lips curled slightly, "Oh, how long is Lili going to borrow this hairpin?"

Yuan Lili thought that Yun Xi had compromised, so she beamed and said, "Just borrow it for a couple of days."

Yun Xi held Yun Yao's hand and said, "Come on, let's go outside to borrow pens, ink, paper and inkstones. Since we want to borrow something, we must write an IOU, so that someone who borrows it will not return it."

Seeing that Yun Xi really wanted to go out, Zhou He hurriedly smoothed things over, "They are all relatives of my family, borrowing something, why should this be the case." She also felt that Yun Yao's granddaughter was stingy, she was just a hairpin, and she gave it to Li Li so what.If they were really asked to borrow pens, ink, paper and inkstones to write IOUs, the Zhou family would be laughed at to death if word spread.

Yun Xi smiled faintly, "I really can't trust people like Yuan Lili who ask for it without telling them. Since you want to borrow something, you have to act like you are borrowing something."

Yun Yao also nodded, "Let's go, let's write the IOU, and let the villager be a witness by the way, so that I won't be afraid that Cousin Lili will deny it."

Mrs. Zhou He glared at Mrs. Zhou, "Look at the good daughter you have raised!" In Mrs. Zhou's eyes, Mrs. Du Zhou was still the adopted daughter who was rounded and flattened, so she would immediately reprimand her when she got angry.It's just that she didn't know that due to Yunxi's subtle influence and the self-confidence she had cultivated during this period, Du Zhoushi was no longer the muddy noodle man she used to be.

When Du Zhou saw Yuan Lili bullying her daughter, she also felt angry. She said coldly: "It seems that mother does not welcome us here, so she allows Lili to bully my Yunyao. Then we should not be annoying, and go back directly." gone."

She stood up, took Yun Yao and Yun Xi by the hand, and was about to leave.It would be good to go home with this as a reason, lest Mother really push Yuan Lili's matter to her.After the incident just now, Mrs. Du Zhou has long been disgusted with Yuan Lili's willful temper, and recalling Yun Xi telling her about Yuan Lili's loss of virginity, the disgust in her heart deepened.

No matter which family such a niece marries into, she will be a disaster to others, and she is unwilling to do such wicked things.

Zhou He didn't expect that Du Zhou wouldn't even buy her account, and became so hard-headed. He was shocked, and quickly stood up, trying to force a smile, "You child, why do you get more tempered when you get older. Your sister and Your niece is just joking with you."

After all, she winked, not knowing what to think of, Zhou Han finally apologized reluctantly, and even apologized to Yunyao together with Yuan Lili who suppressed the unhappy face.

Seeing it in her eyes, Yun Xi became more vigilant in her heart.It seems that they are asking a lot for the mother and daughter to swallow their anger and apologize.

Under such circumstances, Du Zhou could not say anything about leaving, so he could only sit down again.

But after this encounter, the people of the Zhou family finally saw that these three people were not easy to provoke, and they dared not treat them with the same attitude as before.

Yun Xi felt that this group of people were bullying and shy, and they had the same virtues as Mrs. Du.Her eyes narrowed slightly, and her eyes fell on the cup on the table.The cups used by Zhou's family are made of wood, I don't know if it is for resistance to falling.

Her cup is placed very close to Yunyao's cup, and the style is exactly the same.

Yun Xi picked up Yunyao's cup and pinched it with her hands. In an instant, a long crack was formed in the original wooden cup. In this case, if she squeezed it again, the cup might split into two pieces. .

She put the cup back to its original position, motioned Yun Yao to look at the cup, and under the cover of the table, made a pinching and threatening movement under the table.

Yun Yao had seen her threaten many people with this trick, so she understood it, picked up the cup, drank a few sips of water, then slid her eyes on Yuan Lili, and then squeezed it hard with her breast-feeding end.She had been trained by Yun Xi for several months, and although her strength was still far inferior to Yun Xi's, she was much stronger than ordinary girls.

With a click, the wooden cup split into two pieces, and the water in the cup splashed out.

Everyone couldn't help looking at her, and they were even more shocked when they saw the cracked cup.

Yun Yao said casually: "Ah, I'm sorry, I was in a bad mood just now, and I squeezed the cup too hard."

A trace of fear flashed in Yuan Lili's eyes: How much effort is needed to crush the wooden cup.

Yun Xi said: "It's a good thing you didn't fight Lili just now, otherwise with your strength, you might accidentally break her finger."

Yuan Lili trembled even more when she heard the words.

Both Zhou Heshi and Zhou Jing froze, and the former couldn't even say a word to smooth things over.

The atmosphere froze for a moment.

The last one who broke the silence was Zhou Han who happened to walk in.Zhou Hanshi was cooking in the kitchen just now, so she didn't know this, so she asked directly: "Mother, shall I go to Third Uncle's and call their father and son back for dinner?"

The next second, she looked at the wooden cup that was split in two with a look of surprise, "Who cut this cup with a knife?"

Why are you such a loser!Don't you know that the cups cost a penny to buy back?
Yun Yao was extremely proud of herself, but on her face she looked like a calm and congenial person, "Well, it's just that I just recalled the incident when Cousin Lili snatched my hairpin. When I got angry, I couldn't control my strength and crushed it. That's all."

The blood on Yuan Lili's face was gone, and Zhou Jing also had a look of fear.

Zhou He, who used to smooth things over as an excuse to favor Yuan Lili, also couldn't say a word, obviously they didn't dare to say anything, for fear of really angering Yunyao, and pinching their heads like wooden cups.They don't think their necks are as hard as wooden cups.

Even Zhou Han who asked was silent.

Du Zhou shook her head with a helpless expression, but there was a faint smile in her eyes.Even Zhou Hanshi, who used to like to watch the dishes, dare not say another word.

Before dinner, Zhou He's precious son Zhou Yuan and precious golden grandson Zhou Xiang came back. Zhou Xiang is seven years old this year, exactly the age when cats dislike dogs. Simply put, he is the legendary bear child.Zhou Xiang is the most favored child of the Zhou family, and he clings to him for any delicious food, causing him to be fat all over his body, but in Zhou He's eyes, his grandson can't be too cute, so what's wrong with being fat? , it is blessed!
When Yun Yao came over the year before last, she was hit on the head by Zhou Xiang, fortunately there was no scar left.At that time, Zhou He's wholeheartedly favored his grandson, and Du Zhou and the others were so angry that they shed tears.

Zhou Xiang sat on the chair, looked at his cousin, his eyes were rolling, obviously thinking of some bad idea again.

Yun Yao snorted, if Zhou Xiang dared to do something, she would definitely let him understand why flowers are so popular.Now five Zhou Xiang will not be her opponent.

Zhou He's and Zhou Han's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law recalled the incident of Yun Yao cracking the wooden cup, fearing that their good grandson would suffer, they hurriedly said to Zhou Xiang: "Xiang'er, come and sit with grandma."

Zhou Han knew her son better, and directly pushed the braised pork in front of her mother-in-law, away from her son.Seeing this, Zhou Xiang, who loves to eat meat the most, didn't care about bullying Yunyao, so he quickly sat beside Zhou He.

Only then did Zhou He heave a sigh of relief, and started talking again, trying to make the atmosphere look more warm and lively.

Yun Xi was really not used to the Zhou family's taste, so she just picked a vegetable in front of her, and the three of them talked together.

Halfway through the meal, Zhou He felt that he had successfully appeased his adoptive daughter and granddaughter, pointed at Yuan Lili with a smile, and said to Du Zhou: "Sissy, you see, Lili has reached the age of the girl this year, which means the age of her partner. Yes. Why don’t you introduce someone from your village to your niece? I heard that your village has earned a lot of money this year, and I don’t ask Lili how rich her husband’s family will be in the future, as long as she doesn’t have to worry about food and clothing.”

Du Zhou's mind shrank, if it was before, she would really respond.But after knowing that Yuan Lili lost her virginity and bullied her daughter, how could she want to.She looked calm, "There are no young people of the right age in our village. Besides, Lili is my younger sister's biological daughter, and Lili's marriage is naturally up to my younger sister. Besides, my younger sister can also be in her Find it at your husband's house."

Yun Xi said, "Mother-in-law, you love Lili so much, why don't you just find a partner for her in Luzhu Village? That way, even after she gets married, she will be taken care of by someone."

Zhou He's and Zhou Jing's expressions froze, they exchanged a look, Zhou Jing quickly said to Du Zhou's: "It's all because Lili is too outstanding, some people in our village slandered her reputation, which made my sister I had to bring Lili to my mother." She took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears, looking like a loving mother.

"It's also for this reason that I want to marry Lili to my sister's village. At least over there, everyone won't know about those rumors, and they won't look down on Lili because of it."

Yun Yao was also popularized by Yun Xi for what Yuan Lili did. She despised her in her heart, but she still had an innocent look on her face, "What kind of rumor is it? Since it is a rumor, just clarify it directly. The clear will clear itself, and the muddled will clear up." Self-defilement."

The corner of Zhou He's mouth twitched, and he reluctantly said: "It's all spread by people who do good deeds, our Lili is the best and most innocent girl."

Zhou Jing said: "Sister, if you find it difficult to introduce, why don't I go to live with Lili for a while, and I will give Lili my eyes. Even if I don't know people well, I can't blame you. My sister." She also pulled her daughter.

A look of resentment flashed across Yuan Lili's face, but she still lowered her eyebrows and said pleasantly: "Auntie, I was in a bad temper just now, I apologize to you."

Zhou Jing's move of retreating into advance is really effective. She has said so much that Du Zhoushi is too embarrassed to refuse.Since she doesn't need to introduce someone, then it shouldn't matter... She subconsciously looked at Yun Xi, wanting to seek advice from this capable niece.

Alarm bells were ringing in Yun Xi's heart. The mother and daughter wanted to live in Du's house so actively, and they must be asking for a lot.It's just that she is not afraid, she is the one who holds Qi Feng's big killer.Waiting for tomorrow, she will close the door and let Qi Feng go!

So she nodded without a trace.

Only then did Du Zhou nodded and said, "Then let's live here."

Yun Yao looked unhappy, and was about to refuse, when Yun Xi pulled her sleeves and signaled her not to move.After all, she still listened to Yun Xi's words, she just gritted her teeth, her face full of displeasure.

Mrs. Zhou He laughed, "Okay, this is my good daughter. Between us relatives, we should help each other like this, and love each other." Then he personally picked up a few chopsticks for Mrs. Du Zhou. Zhou's family has been at home for so many years, but he has never received such treatment.

Her heart was sour: How could her mother really treat her as a relative.

Yun Xi only felt that Zhou He and Zhou Jing seemed to be overjoyed, there must be a conspiracy in it.On the other hand, Yuan Lili, she was the one who agreed before, and she is also the one who is not willing now, which makes people really confused.

With such doubts in mind, Yun Xi ended the Hongmen Banquet in this way.

The house of the Zhou family is not too big, only four rooms.One for Zhou He, one for Zhou Jing and her daughter, two for Zhou Yuan and his wife. After Yun Xi and the others came, Zhou Xiang's room was given up, and he and his grandma temporarily slept in one room.

Zhou Xiang was still very unwilling, crying over there not to give up the room.

Yun Xi sneered, picked up a stone from outside, and crushed the stone in front of Zhou Xiang.

Zhou Xiang's crying disappeared in his throat immediately, and he didn't dare to make trouble anymore.As for Zhou Yuan, he also withdrew his gaze, afraid that he would become the next stone.

Yun Xi really didn't like Zhou Yuan at all. When this man was eating, he often looked at Yun Xi with what he thought was a secret lewd gaze.If there is a chance, she must cut off his lifeline, to see if he dares to look at her like this.

In the end, the three of Yun Xi successfully moved into Zhou Xiang's original room. Because the three of them slept together, Zhou Hanshi even brought an extra quilt over.

Because Du Zhoushi and Yunyao had been traveling for half a day during the day, they had to fight wits and bravery after arriving here, and they both fell asleep very quickly.

Yun Xi was different, she was always wary of the Zhou family.What happened in her previous life made her unable to sleep peacefully in a place that made her feel insecure.Anyway, she didn't sleep all night, it's nothing.

She simply settled down, which can be regarded as a way to rest.And when she was in meditation, her five senses were at a very sharp stage, and any disturbance would be heard in her ears.

Suddenly, a faint conversation sounded in her ears.

"Mom, are we really going to Du's house?"

"Nonsense, if you don't pass, what will happen to the child in your stomach?"

It was Zhou Jing and Yuan Lili who spoke.

Yun Xi came back to her senses in an instant, the mother and daughter's room was next door, and the walls were not thick, and Yun Xi's hearing was sensitive enough, so she was able to hear the conversation.If it were Yunyao, at most she only knew that someone was talking next door, but she couldn't hear the content clearly.

Yun Xi quickly pressed her ear to the wall, not letting go of the conversation on the other side.

"However, you have also seen how terrifying Du Yunxi and Du Yunyao are. One can crush rocks, and the other can crack wooden cups. I really am Du Yunyao's stepmother. Where can I find good fruit! If you are not careful, They killed them." Yuan Lili's voice was full of reluctance.

"You are stupid. If your baby is a boy, then you are a great hero of the Du family. Then Du Yifu will definitely hold you in the palm of his hand. He is Du Yunyao's father. What are you afraid of if you have him under your pressure? Zhou Qianxi was really kind Luck, I originally thought that Du Yifu was a poor ghost who would have no future in his life, but who knew that their Du family is actually prosperous now, and Zhou Qianqian could wear silk and satin that day, you can see how hateful she is."

"Let's go to Du's house with them as soon as possible. Mother will find a chance to let you sleep in the same bed with Du Yifu. After a month, you can say that you are pregnant and let Du Yifu marry you as a wife. The baby is not a boy, and my mother will find a way to make him a boy. At that time, the money of the Du family will belong to both of us, mother and daughter, and then Zhou Qianxi and her daughter will have to look at your face."

Yuan Lili seemed to be convinced as well, she gritted her teeth and said, "And Du Yunxi, she's not a good one either, I have to make them look good when the time comes."

Yun Xi's face turned blue when she heard the conversation between the mother and daughter.

it is good!What a Yuan Lili!What a Zhou Jing!
