Chapter 77: Still Soft-Hearted
Ye Beixiu limped out, leaning on a wooden stick.
Zhang Juexia was worried about him and chased after him.
When they opened the door, they saw Qin Eryong peeking outside.
When Qin Eryong saw Ye Beixiu, he was completely stunned.
Soon he chuckled, "Brother Bei Xiu."
"What's up?"
"Has my sister ever been here?"
"I was just telling you this when you came.
Your family's wishful thinking is so loud that even I, who am recuperating at home, can hear it.
Qin Eryong, I'm telling you, if you still want to stay in Yejia Village, find someone for your sister to marry off as soon as possible."
Qin Eryong felt very nervous when he saw Ye Beixiu getting angry. The shadow of the last poisoning was still there, and he didn't want to offend Ye Beixiu again this time.
Qin Eryong's face was full of smiles, "Brother Beixiu, my grandma has found someone for her, she is not..., hey, it's all her fault.
I found her and locked her up at home, not letting her go out anymore."
"That's good. I don't care whether your sister goes out or not. As long as she doesn't hang around me and my family, it's fine."
Qin Eryong quickly turned around and said, "Brother Beixiu, I'm leaving now. I have to finish my work quickly."
"stop."
Zhang Juexia stopped him, "Is your sister not home yet?"
Qin Eryong's eyes were rolling around.
Ye Beixiu shouted, "Stop playing tricks and tell the truth!"
"No, no, I have to go look for her."
"Go look for her at the village entrance. Also, remember to tell your grandma that she still owes us eight hundred coins. Remember to pay her back quickly.
Otherwise, I will take the IOU and sue the government."
When Qin Eryong heard that his family was asked to pay back the money, he became even more timid, "Brother Beixiu, our family is really struggling to make ends meet..."
"I remember your grandma always listened to you, didn't she?"
"Yes, it is."
"Then go back and tell your grandma to marry your sister off quickly."
The conversation ended there, and Qin Eryong understood what he should do.
Just as she was about to leave, Zhang Juexia stopped her, "I heard from your sister that your family wants to marry her off to a widower down the mountain. I don't think this is a good idea.
If that man had beaten your sister to death, wouldn't your family have suffered losses as well?"
"Listen to my sister-in-law. When I get home, I'll make a fuss with my grandma and I'll definitely find a good family for my sister."
Zhang Juexia waved his hand and asked Qin Eryong to leave quickly.
I don't know why, but when the words came to my lips, my heart softened.
Forget it, just consider it as accumulating blessings for yourself!
When they got home, the two of them kept silent about each other and no one mentioned Qin Lianhua again.
After lunch, Zhang Juexia took out the rice bran and wheat bran he bought from the grain store, mixed them together, and carried them to the warehouse.
This is the ration she prepared for the hens. As the weather gets colder, they lay fewer eggs, so she can only add some nutrition to them.
After selling sixty rabbits, the backyard became noticeably more spacious.
She fed the baby quickly. After finishing all this, she returned to the west wing and took out the peanuts she had bought that day.
She took it to the main room and asked Ye Beixiu and Liu Mingda to help peel it.
As Liu Mingda peeled the fruit, he said, "This thing is good. The more I eat it, the more addictive it becomes."
"You two should finish peeling these today, and I'll make you some delicious dishes to go with your wine tonight."
"What's the good food?"
“Use this: oil-pressed peanuts, spiced peanuts, sugar-coated peanuts.
If you want something salty, we’ll make it salty, and if you want something sweet, we’ll make it sweet.”
Ye Beixiu was also surprised to hear that there were so many ways to eat peanuts. "I've only eaten them raw, and roasted. Throwing peanuts under the pot and roasting them tastes great too."
Zhang Juexia remembered that when he was a child in his hometown, he also ate peanuts in this way, so he picked up a handful and threw them under the big pot in the kitchen. "When I cook in the evening, I can eat roasted peanuts."
Liu Mingda said, "I want to eat oil-pressed peanuts and drink wine."
"As long as you work hard, you will be satisfied."
Seeing that the two were working very hard, Zhang Juexia walked out of the house and went to the back mountain to get some fresh air.
The wheat planted in the wasteland is growing well, arranged neatly, and the leaves are dark green.
The wheat seedlings grow very strong, their stems are straight and thick, and can withstand the severe cold and snow in winter.
Zhang Juexia took advantage of the bright sunshine and walked further inside.
When spring comes next year, she needs to make good plans for this mountain, so she needs to make plans early.
The roads she had walked were all imprinted in her mind, and she was ready to return home and draw a picture.
Before she knew it, she saw the hillside in front of her. There was plenty of sunshine there, and she finally climbed up with great effort.
The scene before her stunned her.
A few little wild boars were playing in the sunshine, grunting and making noises.
They run around, chase each other, play, and use their noses to dig holes in the soil to find food.
Zhang Juexia watched from a distance for a while, then realized that this was a great prey for a hunter, so she had to go back and call for help.
She ran back home panting, and Ye Beixiu quickly put down his work and asked, "What's wrong? What's going on?"
"There's a wild boar on the back hill. I'm here to call for help."
When Liu Mingda heard that there was a wild boar, he dropped the peanuts in his hand and ran out.
Ye Beixiu patted his legs in frustration, "I'm afraid there's no way I can catch the wild boar. Wife, go to the old house and ask my brother and the others to come and help."
Zhang Juexia understood Ye Beixiu's intention. She called out to Liu Mingda at the gate, asking him to be careful, and then ran towards the old house.
When he ran to the old house, Ye Beishan happened to be there. When he heard that there was a wild boar, he became excited, picked up his tools, and ran out.
Ye Jishun called Ye Yunsheng and Ye Yunliang to follow behind, and even Ye Beilin and Ye Beili followed closely behind.
The group of people ran towards Zhang Juexia's home in a mighty manner. When the villagers saw Ye Jishun's entire family coming out, they thought something had happened. They couldn't catch up with the men who were running fast in front, so they grabbed Zhang Juexia who was behind.
How could Zhang Juexia tell them that there was a wild boar on the back mountain? She just said that there was some work to do at home and she couldn't do it, so she asked the men in the old house to help.
This action of the Ye family frightened Mrs. Qin.
Qin Eryong found Qin Lianhua at the entrance of the village, took her back home, and told Qin Pozi what Ye Beixiu said.
Although Qin Eryong was timid outside, he was definitely authoritative at home. He jumped up and down and told Mrs. Qin, "Don't waste your energy thinking about marrying my sister to Ye Beixiu.
Don’t mention the past. In the past, someone wanted to marry you, but you refused.
Now you are eager to be my concubine, but she is not willing.
Find her someone to marry quickly. No matter how much money that widower down the mountain offers, it won't work. It would be such bad luck if she were beaten to death at such a young age."
Mrs. Qin argued, "That family gave more silver, so why is it not okay?"
"If I say no, it's no."
