Chapter 584 What are cattle and horses?

Everyone in the Yin family followed Qin Yao into the house. Seeing this simple but warm and solid house, Master Yin felt an indescribable sense of security.

Although it was freezing outside, the house was warm as spring. The table was filled with a wide variety of snacks, which gave us a glimpse of the host's wealth.

Mrs. Yin discovered that there were small steamed buns made of white flour among the food. They were as white as snowflakes, and the dough was delicate and smooth. One could tell at a glance that the flour must have been ground at least six or seven times to be so fine that there was no sign of roughness.

But the more they looked, the more the Yin family felt that Village Chief Qin's family had a sense of being both poor and rich.

The clothes and food are so extravagant that it makes people shudder, but the living quarters are quite simple.

While Qin Yao was taking Li out to prepare hot tea for the guests, Brother Yin and his wife quickly pulled the little sister-in-law aside to question her.

"Is Ah Yue well fed and warmly dressed?"

"Has the village chief treated you harshly?"

"Will anyone in this village bully you?"

Yin Le gently pushed away his brother and sister-in-law who were approaching him, shook his head helplessly and smiled: "Master treats me very well, and the villagers are also very polite to me. I live very well here, much better than at home."

Hearing the latter part of the sentence, Master Yin's expression, which had just relaxed, darkened again, and he subconsciously sneered:

"Don't be so stubborn. This country is ignorant and conservative. There are so many cannibalistic customs. You are so ugly now. How can they not bully you? Don't be stubborn in front of your family."

besides!

"Although your master is the village chief, she is also known for her viciousness. Was she just acting so polite for others to see? Tell me honestly, does she secretly torture you?"

"No! Dad, don't listen to what those people are saying." Yin Le was about to explain for his master when he heard footsteps approaching. He hurriedly stopped, glared at his family, and reminded them not to talk nonsense.

"The road is long and the sky is dark. You three should stay for one night." Qin Yao led Li into the house and motioned for Li to serve them hot tea.

At the same time, he winked at Yin Le, indicating that there was still an empty room in the house to accommodate guests, and she didn't have to worry about him being dissatisfied and rushing to drive her family away.

But in fact, Qin Yao heard everything the Yin family just said.

Prejudice is a huge mountain that is not easy to remove. Although she herself was not surprised, she did not want outsiders to have any cannibalistic prejudice against their Liujia Village.

Before leaving the main hall, Qin Yao smiled and said to Yin Len, "If your family members are worried, you can personally take them to see your work environment tomorrow morning, so that they can feel at ease when they leave."

When Yin Le heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

The master will not drive her away! Once this thought came to her mind, Yin Le was even happier than having the support and understanding of her entire family.

"Master, I know what to do." Yin Le respectfully bowed to Qin Yao, personally sent her back to her bedroom for a nap, and then returned to the main room to continue greeting his family.

Hearing that Yin Le still refused to go home, Master Yin also wanted to find out what was going on. He agreed to stay at Qin Yao's house for one night and go with his daughter early the next morning to see how he was doing in this place.

He wanted to see what kind of ability Liujia Village had that could make a girl not want to return home!

In the evening, Liu Ji brought the children back from Dingjiazhuang after successfully completing the arrangements for next year's schooling. The couple treated the Yin family to a sumptuous dinner, giving their master and forefather all the face they could.

Upon learning that Liu Ji was actually the newly elected juren in Kaiyang County this year, Mr. Yin's attitude took a 90-degree turn.

After dinner, he returned to the small guest room that Qin Yao had prepared for him. He grabbed Yin Le and asked him with a smile, "Your master is actually Mr. Liu. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Yin Le looked at the surprised smile on his father's face and was completely puzzled. "I only worshipped my master as my teacher. What does it have to do with who my master's grandfather is?"

In Yin Le's eyes, the reason why his master's uncle was his master's uncle was simply because he was his master's nominal husband.

The master-grandfather can be anyone, but there is only one Qin Yao, the master!

Master Yin was so angry when he saw his daughter's stunned look, but then he thought that master and grandmaster were one family after all, so he sighed and smiled helplessly, waved his hand, and asked Yin Le to go and accompany his eldest sister-in-law.

The only guest room was a small one next to the main room. The Yin father and son could squeeze into it, so Yin's sister-in-law could only arrange for him to live with Yin Le.

The aunt and sister-in-law haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's nice for them to snuggle in bed together and talk in private at night.

Yin Le talked a lot about his master. Mrs. Yin was originally a little afraid of Qin Yao's bad reputation, but as she listened, she suddenly realized that this Village Chief Qin was not the same as the rumors in the outside world.

Mrs. Yin was surprised and asked, "She actually let all the women in the village come in to work? How did she do it? Didn't the men in those women's families object to their women going out and showing their faces? And they even had to work with the male workers? This, this..."

Just thinking about that scene, Mrs. Yin felt like she was suffocating.

Her mother's family also ran a small business. Her father rarely appeared since she was a child. In her memory, only her mother was struggling to support the whole family and waiting for her father to bring back money.

Later, my father really brought the money home and opened a tea shop in the county town.

As the family's life improved, my mother retired to the inner house to take care of the household chores. However, my father was not good at running the business and he often came to ask my mother for advice, which is how the shop was able to be maintained.

Once when the business ran into problems, my mother offered to go to the store to help out, thinking that my father, who often asked her about business, would agree.

Unexpectedly, my father was furious and ignored my mother for half a year.

The reason was simply because the people in charge of taking care of the tea trees in the tea house were all men, and my mother, a woman, mixed in with them and was too dissolute, which damaged my father's reputation.

As expected, the tea shop closed down within a year.

Later, her father said that if he had known earlier, he would have let her mother run the store. But she knew that even if he could go back to the past, her father would still not allow her mother to "show her face".

If this is the case for just one family, then every girl in Liujia Village can go out to work. How did they do that?

Yin Le looked at his sister-in-law's shocked eyes in the candlelight, thought for a while, and said:

"Sister-in-law, when you find that those so-called dogmas are not beneficial to you but to others, you should think about whether these dogmas are really correct."

"The master has used her actions countless times to tell the women in the village that so-called reputation is not as important as having enough food to eat and warm clothes to wear."

"When a woman creates universally recognized value with her own hard-working hands, she is no different from a man in everyone's eyes, the only difference is between high-value cattle and horses and low-value cattle and horses."

Sister Yin asked in confusion: "What do you mean by recognizing what kind of cows and horses are?"

"Universal means values ​​that are recognized by everyone, such as being able to make money and support a family."

"The remaining rumors and constant suppression and denigration are just despicable means of fearing that you will become their competitor and deprive them of their interests."
