Chapter 12 Shen Wuyou
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyi rolled his eyes at her and said sarcastically, "I'm fine. Someone helped me collect the manure. How can I be fine?"
"Daya, you are jealous. From now on, I will be Brother Gu's wife. We will definitely be very happy as a couple, and you can only envy us forever!"
Chen Xiaohua finished speaking proudly, supporting her waist with one hand, deliberately tilting her pelvis forward, and gently touching her belly with the other hand. She was only two and a half months pregnant, but she acted more exaggerated than an eight-month pregnant woman.
Xu Zhiyi was so disgusted by her boastful look that he curled his lips and said sarcastically, "Chen Xiaohua, besides thanking me for letting you be with Gu Yun, you should also go to the Yue Lao Temple to worship. You should thank Yue Lao for taking such pains to pair you two up when he was assigning the two of you!"
"Xu Daya, you said these things because you are jealous. Let me tell you, Brother Gu has never liked you. He told me in person that he hates you the most as the fiancée who was forced upon him!"
After hearing this, Xu Zhiyi smiled and said, "Really? Then I should be thankful that I didn't get stuck with this dirty thing, otherwise, I would feel sick just thinking about it."
"Ah!! Xu Daya, you...you..." Chen Xiaohua collapsed. She deliberately came to hang around Xu's house today just to show off her victory to Xu Daya when she met her, and also to deliberately strike her down. Who knew Xu Daya would become so invulnerable.
Xu Zhiyi looked at the very excited Chen Xiaohua, quickly stepped back a few steps, and waved his hand:
"Hey, hey, don't get angry, be careful not to get upset, or you might miscarry! If you can't marry into the Gu family, that'll be a big deal! And then the two of you will harm others separately, and that will be a sin!"
When Chen Xiaohua heard this, she became so angry that her chest heaved. Ouch, her stomach really felt a little uncomfortable. When she thought of Xu Daya's words, she turned pale with shock.
No, she had to go home and lie down, and then ask her mother to ask Doctor Li to come and take her pulse.
Xu Zhiyi watched Chen Xiaohua leave in a hurry, a little surprised. Just leaving like that? She wanted to criticize her a few more times.
Tsk, what are you so proud of? Will Wang's mother and son spoil her on the road to escape famine in a month? It's not certain whether the baby can be saved by then.
"Hey, Yunyue, don't pour any more! There's not much water left at home, and my second aunt needs to keep some for kneading the dough."
In the Xu family's kitchen, Su was just about to cook when she turned around and saw Xu Yunyue pouring out half a barrel of water. Su saw that there was not much water left and she still had to cook dinner, so she hurriedly reminded her.
"That's all I have to use. Leave me alone, or I'll call my grandma to take care of you. Humph."
After saying that, he carried a half-full bucket of water and left the kitchen.
Xu Zhiyi just walked into the yard and saw Xu Yunyue coming out of the kitchen. Xu Yunyue is back? In the original owner's memory, she went to the town a few months ago to look for her elder brother Xu Jinyin who worked as a waiter in a restaurant.
As a result, she fell in love with the apprentice who was the accountant of the restaurant at first sight. She begged Song to rent a room for her in the town. She used the excuse of accompanying her elder brother to pursue the apprentice privately.
When Xu Yunyue saw Xu Zhiyi, she quickly put down the wooden bucket in her hand and shouted in an imperative tone: "You money-loser, come here and bring me some water to my room. Do you hear me?"
"Haha! Your face isn't big enough. Do you want me to make it bigger for you?" After saying that, he walked up to her, raised his hand and slapped her.
“Bang!!”
"Ah!! Mother, mother, help!"
Xu Yunyue covered her beaten face and cried loudly.
"Oh, what's wrong?" Song, who was in the backyard, heard her daughter crying loudly and hurriedly ran out to the front yard.
Su in the kitchen heard the noise and hurried out to see what was going on.
When Xu Yunyue saw Song, she rushed over and cried, "Woo woo, mother, Xu Daya, this money-loser, hit me."
"What? Xu Daya, you..." Upon hearing this, Song glared at Xu Zhiyi fiercely.
Xu Zhiyi was not to be outdone and said in a cold voice: "Aunt San, I am helping you educate your cousin."
Song: "Pah, does my daughter need you to teach her?"
Su, who was standing by, heard this and tried to smooth things over, "Sister-in-law, this is definitely a misunderstanding. Daya has always been more obedient than Yunyue, so she definitely didn't mean it."
Xu Zhiyi: "I did it on purpose, Third Aunt. My cousin keeps calling me a money-loser. How tactless. After all, I am her cousin. Is it appropriate for her to call me that?"
Hearing this, Xu Yunyue blurted out in anger: "You are a money-loser. Didn't grandma always call you that?"
Xu Zhiyi: "Oh, really? Call me if you like! But when I get bored, I have to ask the villagers if it's really right."
Xu Yunyue: "Compensation... um..."
Song reacted and quickly covered Xu Yunyue's mouth. This money-losing girl meant that if Yunyue dared to scream, she would go to the village to ruin Yunyue's reputation!
If it gets out that Yunyue is disrespectful to her sister at home, how can she get along with her husband's family in the future? Today is another day when she has to swallow her anger. She is really angry!
How come this money-loser has become a different person after breaking off the engagement with the Gu family? In the past, the whole family dared not complain when they stepped on her, but now her words are getting more and more poisonous.
And at this time.
The young man who came back from the mountain secretly took the bag and hid it in the firewood pile.
Then he took out a tattered purse from his arms and poured out all the money, which amounted to only seven copper coins.
With a conflicted mind, he finally put the copper coins back into his purse, put them back in his arms, and then went to his uncle and aunt's house next door.
When Shen Ercheng saw his second nephew Shen Wuyou standing at the door of his house, he immediately glared at him and said, "Shen Wuyou, why are you here? Humph, I used several layers of connections to find you such an easy and profitable job in town, but you still don't want to..."
Shen Wuyou lowered his head in shame when he heard this, and said in a tangled way: "Uncle, I'm not unwilling, I'm just worried that my brother is alone at home, it's really..."
"Oh, Auntie thought it was something else. When you go to town, don't I and your uncle still stay at home? When you get your salary, buy some food for Auntie. Auntie can prepare food and send it to Chang'an every day, right?"
Seeing that Shen Wuyou had given in, Mu Shi, who was standing by, excitedly took on the job of helping to take care of Shen Changan.
When Shen Ercheng heard that his nephew's attitude had changed today, he was also moved. A while ago, no matter how he and his wife tempted him, he was indifferent and only wanted to stay with his paralyzed brother. It seems that he can't live like this anymore!
The family had ten acres of land, his second wife had six acres, and the eldest wife had four acres. Before his eldest brother died, he sold three acres of land to pay for his illness, but the patient still could not be cured.
The remaining one acre of land was not enough for the food of his two nephews, not to mention the food reserves! Before the drought, his nephew could still do some hard labor at the dock. Now, I am afraid he can't even take out a penny!
Chen Ercheng: "Have you really decided this time? Don't waste your uncle's kindness. I can ask my friends to use their connections. I'm very kind to you."
Shen Wuyou nodded after hearing this: "Well, thank you uncle, I will definitely not embarrass your friend. When I go to that mansion, I will definitely work hard and will never be lazy."
When the couple heard Shen Wuyou's words, they looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but rise greatly. That person agreed. Just for his nephew's face, he was willing to give a hundred taels of silver. A hundred taels! Just thinking about it made me excited.
Alas, if only his non-blood-related nephew hadn’t broken his leg, he could have gotten another hundred taels!
Although he and Wuyou are not biological brothers, they are both surprisingly handsome. If they take better care of their complexion, I am afraid there is no one as handsome as him in the whole area!
