Chapter 111 Contradictions
"Mother, he's gone." Standing by the side door for a long time, Liu Man'er finally said this sentence, and just this sentence made her tears burst out of her eyes.

"Don't cry, silly boy, Yuan'er will come back again." Fang hugged Liu Man'er.

Liu Man'er was already sobbing.

"The man's ambition is everywhere, how can we stop it, in fact, the mother is very reluctant in her heart." Fang sighed, as Ye Yuan's mother, how could she be willing to let her child go to the battlefield? Not the mother of Yue Fei who served the country loyally.

The sky gradually brightened, a fish belly appeared in the east, and then turned golden, and then the sun finally showed half of its face.

Fang let go of Liu Man'er and said, "You must be sleepy because you got up so early today, go back and sleep for a while."

"I'm not sleepy." Liu Man'er shook her head, but turned around and walked into the house.

She really didn't feel sleepy at all, without Ye Yuan, the room felt a little deserted, and she couldn't sleep at all.

For several days in a row, Liu Man'er was a little absent-minded, either with Ye Tianchen, or holding the little monkey in a daze.

Fang shook her head when she saw it, and persuaded, "Man'er, what can you do if you continue like this, take good care of yourself, don't be in a daze all day, find something to do."

Liu Man'er naturally knew, but she just didn't want to do anything. Now she felt that she had been possessed by the god of laziness, and she was listless all day long.

She didn't even have time to take care of her own chickens and ducks, and several of her chickens and ducks died as a result.

The main reason is that the newly raised chickens and ducks are gradually getting bigger, and the living density of this group of chickens and ducks is getting a bit higher. Looking at these, Liu Man'er also felt that this is not the way, so she discussed with Fang: "Mother, should we Should we sell some chickens and ducks?"

"That's the reason, but our town can't consume so much." Fang said.

At present, the Ye family is only cooperating with shopkeeper Tao's restaurant. After all, it is a small place, and the things it needs are indeed not many.

Liu Man'er thought about it, and then said, "Why don't we find a seller in my county."

"You go to the county seat? How can I do that? Your girl's family." Fang's family didn't want Liu Man'er to show her face, so Liu Man'er said, "Then I'll go with Ye Qing and put on the veil, so it won't be a problem, right? ?”

"Mom, you have to think about it. These chickens and ducks are all money. It's a pity that they all die at home." Liu Man'er said, "I'll go to the county and find a restaurant to cooperate with. At that time, our chickens and ducks will be available." The place is sold, so it’s better to exchange some money.”

"Alright then." After all, Fang finally agreed.

So, on this day, Liu Man'er and Ye Qing drove a borrowed ox cart to the county seat, they brought a few chickens and ducks as samples, but after looking around, most of these restaurants already have people who specialize in supplying them No, there is no need for Liu Man'er's family.

Some people want it, but deliberately keep the price very low, some people even see Liu Man'er and Ye Qing are countrymen, want to buy it but maliciously keep the price low.

Ye Qing advocated selling it, but Liu Man'er was unwilling. She sold the chicken she worked so hard to raise at half the market price, how could it work.

Hearing Liu Man'er said that he refused to sell, Ye Qing was obviously very unhappy, he felt a little weak in driving the ox cart, and just sluggishly refused to leave.

Seeing Ye Qing's passive sabotage, Liu Maner felt very wronged in her heart, tears were already rolling in her eyes, but she suppressed them again.

This little brother-in-law didn't get along well with her before, and he is not her husband Ye Yuan, so it is impossible for him to accommodate her in everything.

She didn't feel it before, but now sitting in the bullock cart, Liu Man'er realized that with Ye Yuan's presence before, she had become much weaker. Before she knew it, she was no longer the tough woman who was not afraid of anything.

Now that Ye Yuan is not at home, she is the elder sister-in-law, so she must be strong and tough.

After another day, the chicken was a bit dull, and when it came to the last restaurant, Liu Man'er talked about it, so the guy in the back kitchen was willing to inform the shopkeeper to take a look.

The shopkeeper saw the chickens and ducks on Liu Man'er's ox cart, glanced at them, and said, "What are you doing?"

"Hi shopkeeper, it's like this. My family is in the breeding business. I have some chickens and ducks. I want to cooperate with your restaurant. Do you need it?" Liu Man'er said with a smile.

"Needs are needs, it's just..." The shopkeeper raised his head and said arrogantly, "How do you sell chickens and ducks? How much is it for a catty?"

"Five cents a catty." Liu Man'er stretched out her hand.

"Five cents is so expensive?" The shopkeeper came over, looked at Liu Man'er's chicken, and poked Liu Man'er's duck with a long tobacco stick.

"If you want, we can make it cheaper." Ye Qing said hastily from the side.

"How much cheaper?" The shopkeeper asked slowly.

"Four cents a catty." Ye Qing reported a figure, which was the base price that Liu Man'er discussed with him on the way.

"Four cents? Huh..." The shopkeeper smiled contemptuously, "Your chicken is worth five cents? I think your chickens and ducks are all plague-stricken chickens and ducks. If you sell them, I will pay you two cents." I bought you a catty of Wenqian."

"Two pennies? Heh, when we bought chickens, they were not at this price." Liu Man'er said a little unhappy, "And my chicken and duck are only bought because they came to the city with us today. If it becomes like this, it’s fine if you don’t want to buy it, why do you want to slander like this!”

"Sister-in-law!" Hearing that Liu Man'er seemed a little angry, Ye Qing raised his voice and called her, and then said to the shopkeeper nicely: "Look, shopkeeper, our chickens and ducks are really fine. Why don't you add some money and buy it with three pennies?"

"Three Wen, how much money do you have?" asked the shopkeeper.

"That's all." Liu Man'er replied from the side.

"It's worth taking it to the city to sell it?" The shopkeeper smiled contemptuously, "Go and weigh it, I bought it."

"Sister-in-law..." After taking the money out, Ye Qing said to Liu Man'er with some unhappiness, "Although the price of three pennies is a bit low, it's better than not selling it? These roosters don't lay eggs, they are raised at home It’s a waste of food, so it’s better to sell it.”

"I worked so hard to raise it, the price is too low." Liu Man'er explained to him with ease.

"Sister-in-law, you just saw it too. The price is so high that others won't accept it. Anyway, I have agreed, either you sell the chickens and ducks at home to this person, or you can figure out a way yourself when the time comes!"

Ye Qing said very unhappy.

"Is this the way you talk to your sister-in-law?!" Liu Man'er also became angry, and she said: "I didn't do this for our family, the price is too low, we can make money if we sell it!"

"Don't say it's for our family. Except for my third brother, fourth sister, and mother, the rest of our family are all members of your Liu family. Speaking of which, we are now [-]/[-]. If we all listen to you , this Ye family will become your Liu family!"

Ye Qing said very angrily.

Liu Man'er was even more furious, she never thought that Ye Qing thought so, so she also retorted:
"Oh, this is what you have in mind, right? I brought my younger siblings to live in Ye's house, but do my younger siblings eat your food? Everything I eat and live now is earned by me and my husband. Yes, the house is also there, but I didn’t eat you Ye Qing, even if I want to say it, it’s my mother who said it, and it’s not your turn to intervene!"

"It's not my turn, so I don't care about it now, these chickens and ducks are also raised by you, it has nothing to do with me, I will go to work in the town as usual, it's okay!" Ye Qing looked at Liu Man'er provocatively glance.

"Don't tell me that, I can't control you, you have to say, you tell mother, before your elder brother left, you asked you to take care of the whole family, and now you want me to carry it alone Right?"

Liu Man'er raised the corners of her lips and sneered again and again.

"I'm not like this, but you're not very capable, so those who are capable will have to work harder." Ye Qing shrugged, waved his whip, and drove back in the bullock cart.

Maybe it was because of the conflict with Liu Man'er, he walked fast all the way waving the whip, this road was not easy, Liu Man'er felt that his ass was going to be blown up by him, and he was so angry that he was going to die, this damn Ye Qing, really It's too stupid.

When they got home, both of them were a little annoyed, Ye Qing went to Tie Zhu's house to return the ox cart, only Liu Man'er came back first, seeing Liu Man'er's angry face, Fang asked with concern: "Man'er Son, what's the matter?"

"It's okay." Liu Man'er shook her head and forced a smile.

Not wanting to explain too much to Fang, Liu Man'er went upstairs alone, but couldn't help crying.

At night Fu Lu told her to go downstairs for dinner, Liu Man'er's eyes were still a little swollen, Fang asked again, "What's wrong, Man'er?"

"It's nothing." Liu Man'er shook her head, everything is going well with the family, and she doesn't want Fang to worry about a little thing.

"Qing'er, tell me, what happened when you went out with your sister-in-law?" Seeing that Liu Man'er didn't say anything, Fang looked up at Ye Qing again.

"It's okay." Ye Qing also shook his head, and said in a low voice, "My sister-in-law can do it, what can I do?"

"Hehe, no matter how I can, I can't do it without you. I haven't taken care of my family's affairs yet, and I want to work in other people's restaurants." Liu Man'er couldn't help but sarcastically.

"I just want to go, isn't it up to you in this family? Then I might as well go to the restaurant." After hearing what Liu Man'er said, Ye Qing put down his chopsticks and looked at Fang, "Mother, I'm going tomorrow It's a restaurant, in this house, you should take care of yourself, be careful, don't let the Ye family change their surname to Liu."

"You are afraid that the Ye family will change their surname to Liu, so you can stay at home by yourself. You don't have the guts, what are you talking about here!" Meat, stuff it in your mouth!
"Disgusting!" Ye Qing saw that Liu Man'er's reputation was ugly, and felt that he didn't want to be with this kind of person, so he really stood up and left.

"Qing'er!" Seeing what happened at the dinner table, Fang stood up, and then sat down helplessly. She sighed and said, "What kind of thing is this?"

"It's all my fault." Liu Man'er apologized to Fang, and told Fang in detail what happened in the county today, "...Maybe I told the shopkeeper directly without discussing it with him. Well, but what he said later was too much, mother, I didn't add any embellishments."

"You're right, it's Qing'er's fault." Fang comforted Liu Man'er, saying, "He's still a child, don't argue with him."

"Then I'm still a fool, and they're going to come and care about me!" Liu Man'er said, laughing too, looking at the frightened children around, she raised her chopsticks: "Okay, let's eat."
