Reborn Concubine's Wife

Chapter 80
Yang Zhi saw the expressions of the three of them.

"Girl, do you want to eat dinner?" She walked to Zheng Ruo's side and asked.

"Yes." Zheng Ruo nodded.

Yang Zhi went down immediately and brought a food table with a bowl of rice, a pot of meat soup and a plate of wild vegetables on it.Put it in front of Zheng Ruo, handed her the chopsticks, and retreated with Liu Xu and the others.

Today's small courtyard kitchen is managed by Pingyu, and Pingyu is not here today, these must have been done by Yang Zhi.Thinking that she cooked the food, Zheng Ruo suddenly lost his appetite.

Grabbed the rice, barely took two bites, and couldn't eat any more.The meat soup didn't move at all.

She has eaten this kind of food for more than ten years, but recently she misses Shi Yue's weird cooking techniques more and more.The food he cooks is really delicious.At first, he still cooks for himself every day, but later, it gradually decreased, and after his wives and concubines increased, he didn't do anything at all.

Thinking of Shi Yue, she suddenly laughed. She remembered that the day he came was May [-]th, and today is May [-]th, and they will meet in three days.

Thinking of this, Zheng Ruo couldn't tell what it was like.Some resentment, but also some joy.Needless to say resentment, but the joy is because, thinking that he has got the first opportunity, this life will never let him be as glorious as his previous life, and there is a pleasure of revenge.

For two days in a row, Xu Yi followed Zheng Ruo's order to buy grain everywhere.Not only that, Zheng Ruo also asked him to find a carpenter and a plasterer to build a large pool and make many wooden barrels in the newly bought yard.She even asked him to go out to find where he could dig a well, or at worst let him go to the deep mountains to find water.

Xu Yi was very confused by Zheng Ruo's strange behavior.However, he never asked a question.Because he felt that since the girl was rescued from the lake, everything she did had her deep meaning.Since she trusts herself so much, no matter what it is, she just needs to do it well.Therefore, even though Zheng Ruo had already released him from slavery, he still did not get back the contract of sale.

Two days have passed, but Zheng Ruo has never touched anything that Yang Zhi sent up.This made Yang Zhi very distressed. There was not much medicine left for her by the fifth aunt, but she hadn't completed the task at all.Thinking of the whip in Wu Guzi's hand, she felt a dull pain in her back.What should I do?

"Is Seventh Aunt here?" Xiangju's voice came from outside the courtyard gate.

Yang Zhi came out, opened the door, and greeted him.

"Sister Xiangju, why are you free to come here?"

Xiangju smiled and said, "Madam made new clothes for the sister-in-laws in the mansion, and specially ordered me to send them. Is the seventh aunt here?" A maid followed behind her, holding a lacquer plate in her hand. She wore a set of clothes, the rich purple radiated gorgeous brilliance under the sun, this dress is really beautiful, Yang Zhi thought, even though he has been in the Zheng Mansion for so many years, he has never seen such an exquisite dress.

"The girl is upstairs, my sister is here to invite you."

Xiangju nodded and walked to the attic, followed by the maid.

Yang Zhi stood below, watching her go up the steps.Smelling a hint of conspiracy, how could such a stingy Mrs. Liu make such gorgeous clothes for the girl?There must be something strange in it, thinking of the medicine that the fifth aunt asked her to give the girl, she thought, could it be that Mrs. Liu really wanted to give the girl to the sheriff as a concubine as they said?

After Xiangju went up to the attic, Liu Xu welcomed her in.

"Seventh Auntie, Madam said that the sisters-in-laws haven't made new clothes for a long time, and specially made new clothes for each of them. Seventh Auntie, take a look, do you like it?" When Xiangju was talking, the maid behind her was holding a lacquer plate come.

Zheng Ruo's hand slid over the Chinese clothes on the lacquer plate, the soft touch is the best silk and satin in the south of the Yangtze River.And such pure purple is extremely precious.She raised her head and asked, "Does every aunt in the house have new clothes?"

"Yes."

This is strange, Madam Liu is so stingy that she is willing to make a beautiful dress for every sister-in-law in the house?
"Is there any happy event in the house?"

Xiangju smiled and said, "The madam said that the sister-in-laws will inevitably get bored after staying in the mansion for a long time. Tomorrow, she will take the sister-in-law out as a guest."

"All the sister-in-laws in the house?"

"Not everyone will go, only sister-in-laws who are about to reach Ji can go out to play."

Zheng Ruo understood.

"The madam also said that the girl should wear new clothes to the banquet tomorrow."

"Understood." Zheng Ruo nodded noncommittally, a little indifferent to tomorrow's banquet or not.

"Madam said, this is a rare feast in Phoenix City, maybe I won't see it again in the future, let the girl not shirk." Xiangju said with a smile.

Zheng Ruo bowed her head and thought for a while, according to her previous life, when Father came back tomorrow, he would also bring back Shi Yue.Are you going to the banquet tomorrow?Still not going?On second thought, every few years, Mrs. Liu would bring her married sister-in-law out of the mansion to attend the banquet.In fact, it was to tell others that a sister-in-law in the mansion had grown up and could marry.

Thinking about it carefully, in the last life, I seemed to have participated in this banquet, but at that time, Dad and Shi Yue had already returned, and the time was about the same as now.At the banquet, Mrs. Liu highly praised Zheng Wan and Zheng Ru. The only purpose of these sister-in-laws was to serve as a foil for them.

If it was in the previous life, it would be night when Dad got home.It's okay to go to a party.

"Go back to Madam and just say that I am very grateful. I will definitely go to tomorrow's feast."

"Here."

Xiangju got a clear reply and left with the maid.

On the Chinese dress on the lacquer plate, Zheng Ru could faintly see the gold thread embroidered on it.

"Girl, the clothes are really beautiful." Liu Xu couldn't help admiring.

Zheng Ruo frowned, feeling a trace of uneasiness in her heart.She always felt that this matter was weird, and she tried her best to recall the previous life, and nothing special happened at the banquet.This is a little more reassuring.

Yang Zhi got Zheng Wan's ultimatum, if Zheng Ruo still can't take the medicine, tomorrow she will ration her to the blind one-eyed stableboy who feeds the horses in the stable.Yang Zhi was afraid, the stable boy was not only blind in one eye, but also old enough to be her father.
