Chapter 82 The Little Sister Really Comes

Jiang Wan took a general look and didn't know what to say.

Anyway, girls must protect themselves. There are always many scammers in any dynasty.

Today she and her cousin's family took ten cents, which was not a lot of money, and she had no intention of asking Lian Hehua to pay it back.

Jiang Wan still doesn't like Lian Hehua, but she also doesn't want to see a young girl being taken to the mountains to be a wife.

It’s not that the mountains are bad, I just hate this way of buying a wife.

In ancient times, people did not expect free love, but at least the procedure for marrying a wife was more formal, and both parties were happy to remarry.

This method of using crooked methods to trick girls into giving their fingerprints is truly despicable.

When they got home, of course, my aunt went to comfort my uncle first, and my cousin went to sew handkerchiefs. Jiang Wan and my mother got down to business, making oyster sauce.

Now we only collect oyster meat a day, which saves a lot of trouble. Of course, the cost of oyster sauce has increased by 20 or 30 cents per pound, which is just a small amount of money.

The oyster sauce she sells now is 200 wen per pound. Even if the cost increases, it is still a huge profit, mainly because it is much easier for her family.

"Wanwan, I was standing with Xiaoman's wife just now, and she asked me if you wanted to increase the amount of oyster meat you collect."

"More? Is she going to bring someone else along?"

"She didn't say that. She just asked if you had any thoughts on increasing the dosage."

Yin Huaixi actually knew that her daughter would definitely increase the dosage, but she didn't know when.

"We definitely need to add more oyster sauce, but we have to wait until our new stove is built. We have two pots at home and it will be quicker. Now we only have one pot and we also need to cook rice, so we can't cook much in an afternoon. If we add more, we'll have to spend our evenings cooking, which is very tiring."

"Okay, then go to her house and tell her yourself."

Jiang Wan nodded, covered the pot and went out.

When she came back from Xiaoman's house, she suddenly noticed a ditch dug not far from her uncle's house. She walked over and took a closer look, and found that the ditch, which was long and wide, was connected to her small stone house!

In the afternoon, she was talking to Qin Yue outside. Has her mother already measured the land and asked someone to start digging?!

If we really build a wall around such a large piece of land, we can open a door here and then we can reach my uncle's house in just a few steps, hehe!

The mud walls in the village are built very quickly. If there are ready-made bricks, it can be completed in two days.

Jiang Wan was really looking forward to building her own wall.

By the way, we can only build mud walls at the moment. Then we can find some climbing vegetables or vines to put on the walls. Within half a year, it will be green, which is much prettier than khaki.

This kind of vine can be found on the mountain, some are thornless and some are covered with thorns. She prefers the latter, which can also provide some protection.

Wait until she goes to the mountain to get some back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

At this time, Jiang Wan had already forgotten that Qin Yue was coming to see her, and was only thinking about the new wall of her house.

By this time Qin Yue had already returned home. Her mother, with swollen eyes, fainted when she saw her.

After a while of chaos, when Mrs. Qin woke up again, it was already late at night. The candlelight in the room was flickering, and only her husband was working at his desk.

"My husband..."

Hearing the sound, Qin Zhen quickly put down his work and walked over.

"Xiao Die said you haven't eaten anything all day. Are you hungry? Get up and eat something."

As soon as Qin Zhen put his hand on her, he saw his wife hurriedly putting on her shoes to go see their daughter.

"Just stay in bed and let Yue have a good sleep."

"She sneaked out today and didn't even practice her calligraphy..."

“That’s enough!”

Qin Zhen held his forehead with a headache and forcefully pushed his wife back onto the bed.

"Ying Niang, I asked you and my daughter to come with me because I wanted you to live a good life here, not to be sad all day. I was born in a peasant family, and my family does not have such a deep foundation to raise a daughter. Are you abandoning me?"

"No, no, no, how could that be! I have never disliked you!"

In Mrs. Qin's eyes, her husband is the most outstanding talent in the area. How could she possibly reject him?

"Then don't keep forcing Ah Yue to imitate the ways of the rich and powerful. No matter how many rich families there are in this city, you just need to know that your husband is the most powerful person in the city."

Seeing that his wife was still frowning, Qin Zhen slowed down his voice.

"Yingniang, when I'm done with this, I'll take you to the beach. We lived so comfortably in the village as a family of three. I still like you the way you were before. Don't listen to what others say. You are my wife, and I just like you."

When the old couple heard this, Qin Yingniang's face turned red immediately.

"But wouldn't it be embarrassing for you if we didn't dress appropriately?"

"Who told you that? If it was a maid or servant in the mansion, then get out immediately. Even if you go out in plain clothes, people will just say that Lord Qin's family is very frugal and set an example. How can it be embarrassing?"

Qin Zhen said a lot more. He was going out tomorrow and he had to coax his wife tonight. This was an agreement between him and his daughter.

So Qin Yingniang had a sweet dream that night, and she was not angry when she saw her daughter was not wearing such serious clothes the next morning.

But when she heard that her husband had allowed their daughter to go out and play, she immediately objected. Unfortunately, her objection was ineffective, because men still have the final say in the family.

With someone to support her, Qin Yue immediately returned to her original nature and walked away with her people in a carefree manner.

"Okay, don't be angry. Look how many times Ah Yue has laughed today. Don't control her like before. My daughter will not marry into a wealthy family in the future, so she doesn't need to learn the ways of a lady from a noble family. Isn't it good for our family to be happy? Do you have to make your daughter hate you and not want to be close to you, and then you will be happy?"

Qin Yingniang was deeply touched; her daughter had indeed become much more distant from her.

My husband and daughter are both so resistant, should I really change?

If Qin Yue knew what her mother was thinking at this moment, she would definitely jump for joy. Finally, she wouldn't have to learn those messy things anymore.

"Miss, if you want to have fun, you can go to the theater and listen to a play. Why do you have to go to the countryside to have fun?"

"My lady, I grew up in a country village. I like playing in the village. Do you have any opinions? How about you go back and let Xiao Ling come instead?"

Qin Yue was very excited and didn't like to hear this.

Seeing her mistress's cold face, Xiaoyan immediately shook her head and said she would not change. This kind of job of following the mistress out and serving her closely was the best way to cultivate feelings, so she didn't want to give it up.

The master and his servants soon arrived at Lianjiagou on a rented fishing boat.

"Okay, I'm going to go play with my friends. You guys just stay on this boat and don't follow me. When the time comes, I will come back and go with you."

Xiaoyan: “…”

Qin Yue had no intention of taking anyone with her and trotted straight to Jiang Wan's house.

The two of them happened to meet on the road, and Qin Yue smiled so hard that her little white teeth were exposed.

"Xiao Wan, I'm here to play with you!"

Jiang Wan blinked, the young lady really came.

"But I have a lot to do today, so I'm afraid I can't have fun with you."

"Then I'll accompany you. What are you going to do today?"

Jiang Wan thought about it.

"I'll go catch some fish in the sea first, then go to the mountain to get some vines, and maybe some herbs."

Qin Yue's face flushed with excitement.

"I'm going, I'm going!"

She hasn't even crossed the sea yet!
