Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 57
"You think too much," Ye Qiongdan raised her delicate willow eyebrows, her eyes were bright and energetic, "Auntie, please look back!"

"Turn back if you turn around, I'm still afraid that you won't..." The big wife's "cheng" choked in her throat and couldn't say it.

The wet clothes she had just unfolded in her hand fell to the ground, stained with dry plaster.

"This, who is this person?" The eldest daughter-in-law asked stammeringly.

"My big brother."

"You, your elder brother?" The eldest daughter-in-law rubbed her eyes subconsciously, "Am I not mistaken? No, no, this must be a dream!"

The eldest daughter-in-law pinched her arm fiercely, and the ensuing pain made her gasp.

"Auntie, it's time to poke your eyes." Ye Qiongdan said quietly.

"You've set me up!" the eldest daughter-in-law said angrily.

"What did I set you up for? Was I the one who provoked you and made you sneer at our brothers and sisters? I was the one who said that if my elder brother's scar disappeared within ten days, you would poke yourself The purpose?" Ye Qiongdan smiled slightly, "You said back then, let me die! Back then you said, if the scar on my elder brother's face can be removed, even a sow can climb a tree!"

The eldest daughter-in-law's face was flushed red by the words she dug out.

"Anyway, I don't poke my eyes! I don't believe it. I'm dozens of years older than you, and I can't beat a little girl like you!" The big house daughter-in-law said shamelessly.

"Uncle is a scholar, and he will go to the Juren examination this year. If you break your promise, how will you let uncle hold his head up?" Ye Qiongdan asked calmly.

"Presumptuous!" The old man came out with a face as gloomy as the dark clouds in the sky, as if a rainstorm might fall at any moment, "Did you talk to your aunt like this? It's useless that you came from a farming and studying family, and you are in the Ye family. The rules of the year have been learned in vain! Forcing your aunt to dig out her own eyes, does this reputation sound good? I’m afraid you think your reputation in these towns is not bad enough. You want to "show your face" on the bad reputation, Add the words 'no respect for elders', and embarrass your parents!"

"Grandpa, you are getting old now, and you really don't care about what you say. I call her 'uncle', but it's just an honorific name. She is not my uncle now. I, the third bedroom of the Ye family, have been with my uncle for a long time. Fang severed the relationship, Li Zheng, the patriarch and the whole village can testify!" Ye Qiongdan said firmly.

The villagers nodded.

"Besides," Ye Qiongdan opened his mouth again, "What do you mean I forced her to dig out her own eyes? At the beginning, she proposed this condition on her own initiative. The purpose was to let me kowtow to her three times, and let Sanfang give them big Fang planted the late rice. She is the one who bad-heartedly wants to trample on the dignity of my niece, and it is she who wants to continue to enslave our third room to work for the eldest room! Grandpa's level of inversion of black and white is too strong !"

Ye Qiongdan took a deep breath, and said again: "As for showing your face? You can ask people from all over the world, who doesn't want to marry a wife who can make money! It's just because there are few women who can do business, most people If you can't get married, if you can't eat grapes, just say the grapes are sour! You think it's shameful to show your face, but I think it's even more shameful to survive by sucking the blood of the second and third wife like Da Fang!"

"Let's talk about the four words 'no respect for elders'. Since ancient times, they have paid attention to brotherhood and brotherhood, father's kindness and filial piety. My uncle has no mercy for my father, and my grandfather only blindly oppresses my father! Before disrespecting your elders, look at what you have done!"

"Good!" the villagers shouted.

The old man was so angry with Ye Qiongdan that he couldn't say a word, so he walked away immediately.

Without the support of the head of the family, the eldest daughter-in-law suddenly seemed weak.

"I... I just don't poke my eyes, what can you do to me?" The eldest daughter-in-law pursed her lips.

"I really can't do anything to you, but I can take this matter to the town to spread the word," Ye Qiongdan sighed, "Uncle, I heard that after Miss Piaoxu came in, your life will be very difficult. Uncle, pet, concubine destroys his wife, treats her like a jewel, and after the separation, the second and third bedrooms are unwilling to be driven by you. Now, the small and big tasks of the big house all fall on you alone , even the grandparents are reluctant to let her suffer the slightest grievance when they see that the uncle likes Miss Piaoxu more!"

"So what?" asked the eldest daughter-in-law in embarrassment.

"Tell me, if I take this matter to the town to spread the word, will my uncle dislike you even more? Maybe he will divorce you! Seven people: childless, one; obscene, two; no Uncle and aunt, three things; talking and talking, four things; stealing, five things; jealousy, six things; sickness, seven things." Ye Qiongdan smiled slightly, "Because of your verbal dispute with me, you caused chaos in the family and affected uncle's life. Future, this one is enough for you, right?"

The eldest daughter-in-law's face was pale.

She is already so old, she must not be divorced!
Before, because Ye Fengxian, a dead ghost who killed a thousand swords, took a concubine, her natal brother came here specially, scolded her severely, called her a waste, and couldn't even keep a man's heart .

Because of this incident, she was ashamed to go back to her natal family. If she went back to her natal family, she would definitely be laughed to death by the villagers of her natal family.

My brother has always been cool, but because Ye Fengxian took a concubine, he hated her. If she was divorced by Ye Fengxian, my brother would never care about her life or death!

"But... But, poking yourself in the eyes is too cruel, isn't it?" The eldest daughter-in-law looked at her desperately, and she looked a little pitiful at the moment.

But Ye Qiongdan didn't have the slightest sympathy for her. This poor person had something hateful about her. She had oppressed the couples in the third room, beat and scolded the children in the third room, and they were always so hungry that they just hung their breath.

"If you don't want to poke your eyes, then take the money!" Ye Qiongdan said decisively.

"How much is it?" A feeling of hope rose in the heart of the eldest daughter-in-law.

"One eye is 100 taels, and two eyes are 200 taels."

"Are you going to force your aunt to hang herself?" the eldest daughter-in-law shouted.

"Then you hang yourself," Ye Qiongdan said indifferently, "You think I care? In the past few decades, the big house exploited my parents to death, and finally died of exhaustion in the field! You treat my parents You still expect me to take pity on your life? According to these years, after the three-bedroom family got married, they paid ten taels of silver to the family every month, 120 taels a year, plus boxing ceremony, ice respect, charcoal respect... the minimum in a year 60 taels, 20 taels in 600 years. I only ask you for 200 taels, which is enough for you!"

The daughter-in-law of the big house has a lot of hardships. Ever since she married into the Ye family, she has been enjoying the blessings, and she has not saved any private money.

After Miss Piaoxu entered the door, Ye Fengxian, the murderer, actually snatched all her precious jewelry and gave them to that little slut who is used to flattering Piaoxu!
If she wanted to pay her 200 taels of silver, the eldest daughter-in-law could only turn to her natal brother for help.

But, will elder brother give her money?

Even if you give it, you will inevitably be scolded!

Ye Qiongdan waited for her to compromise expressionlessly. She just looked at her face and knew that she had recently lost her money. Money must be tight at this time, so she hit the snake seven inches away.

The eldest daughter-in-law gritted her teeth, and after struggling for a while, she looked at Piaoxu who was watching the fun by the small door.

"Piaoxu, you, can you lend me 200 taels of silver first? I will return the money to you after I go back to my mother's house in two days." Lowering your head is really more uncomfortable than stabbing her a few times.

But what can she do?She cannot be divorced!

"It's all about sharing your husband's worries, so why is madam so out of touch?" Miss Piaoxu smiled, and she went back to her room to get the dressing dowry, put it in front of Ye Qiongdan, and took out some jewelry from it, "These things add up , should be enough for 200 taels of silver. If not, you can just take the slip from the pawn shop and come back to me to choose some jewelry."

The eldest daughter-in-law's eyes were red with anger, she was forced by Ye Qiongdan to have no way out, the little bitch Piaoxu has become a good person here, I am afraid that after Ye Fengxian comes back, he will hate her even more, and then praise Piaoxu for knowing the general, Will share his worries.

But obviously the jewelry in the dowry brought by Piaoxu was all her things, even the dowry once belonged to her!
Ye Qiongdan took these pieces of jewelry, and walked out of the gate of the Ye family's old house together with Ye Qinghan.

After going out, the villagers praised her one after another, praised her for being magnanimous and only took 200 taels of silver, and did not force the uncle to her death, and praised her for her eloquence and her thoughts.

Ye Qiongdan inadvertently saw a figure outside the crowd that made her feel extremely strange—the scholar of the Tang family.

Tang Xiucai was obsessed with reading. When he was selected as a scholar, he was very young. In Jingde Academy, he was deeply loved by his husband. The husband said that he would definitely win the exam this year. Everyone in Shanghe Village also believed that Tang Xiucai had the possibility of winning the exam this year. Much bigger than Ye Fengxian.

Today is not a holiday, Tang Xiucai asked for leave and stayed at home only because the Tang family had something to do these days.

That evening, Tang Xiucai was walking by the river and saw Ye Qiongdan wearing flowers and willows at a glance. Although he fell into the water in embarrassment in the end, her shadow was deeply reflected in his heart.

Therefore, early this morning, Tang Xiucai, who never went out to watch the excitement, followed from a distance and saw Ye Qiongdan's eloquent teeth.

Not only did he not feel that Ye Qiongdan was unreasonable, but he also felt that she was as bright as a sunflower in summer, which made his heart burn like a flame.

Ye Qiongdan just glanced at him inadvertently, and he trembled slightly with excitement, and his face became hot for nothing.

Then, he saw Ye Qinghan's cold eyes.

There was a strong sense of oppression in that gaze, which instantly made him feel like he was in an ice cellar. He lowered his head unconsciously, a little out of breath.

very scary!
How could he have such a terrifying look in his eyes?It was the way a superior looked at the ants, which made his scalp tingle.

When did he offend Ye Qinghan?Tang Xiucai couldn't figure it out.

However, proposing marriage to the Ye family should be put on the agenda.

After Ye Qiongdan and Ye Qinghan went back, they pulled bundles of fresh bracken as usual, and got into the old donkey's cart.

After arriving in the town, Ye Qiongdan cooked the meal to be sold at noon with his elder brother, girl Dan, and the second wife in the morning. Transfer of ownership.

Before leaving, the magistrate of Qinghe County asked curiously, "When will your restaurant open?"
