Mrs. Xu wanted to refuse, but thinking of her brother-in-law, she shuddered unconsciously and went to the kitchen to cook according to her mother-in-law's instructions.
This time, Jian came back from the town with his wife and children just to get the money.
He asked his wife to tell his mother that he and his classmates would go to Qingshan Prefecture to study under a teacher, concentrate on learning, and be sure to pass the exam tomorrow.
He needed fifty taels of silver. Given his parents' regard for his studies, he would collect the money no matter what and let his wife take it back.
As a result, when his wife returned home, she was empty-handed. Not only did she not have fifty taels of silver, she didn't even have enough food to eat.
In the past, every time I came back, I would bring money and a lot of food and drinks.
He was very angry when he saw that his wife did not bring back any money. Then he heard that his mother sold the twins to raise money for him, but was disturbed by a girl who came from nowhere. He felt angry again.
Originally he should have returned a few days ago, but he heard a piece of news in the town. In order to find out whether it was true, he went out to inquire in person. After confirming that the news that Huang Di gave 100 taels to his 18th concubine was true, he decided to come back.
He originally thought that his eldest brother had two daughters. As long as he revealed the news to his mother, she would help him to handle the matter without his help.
He would also tell me that Huang Di was willing to pay fifty taels of silver, so that all the one hundred taels would be in his hands.
It's just a pity that when he returned home, he saw his eldest brother's two daughters. Not only were they thin and small, but they didn't know who he was and just kept their heads down to work.
Not to mention that he has seen countless women and Huangdi doesn't like them, he also despises them.
Just when he was worrying about where to get a girl to send to Huangdi's house in exchange for one hundred taels of silver, a girl suddenly came into the house.
According to his wife's words and what his mother whispered in his ear, this girl was the one who exchanged identities with Ran. She had been a rich family's daughter for sixteen years and had only recently returned to recognize her relatives.
The moment he saw the girl, he felt that there was no doubt that he would get the 100 taels of silver.
I just need to think carefully about how I can get my mother to help me accomplish this without involving myself.
Mengyue returned to her room and took out the herbs she had dug on the mountain from the space to prepare some self-defense powder.
Perhaps because she was a killer in her previous life and changed her body, she is also very sensitive to malicious intent.
The first time the man looked at her, she noticed the undisguised malice in his eyes.
After a period of leisurely work, she seemed to have relaxed a lot and did not prepare some medicinal powder to carry with her early on. However, it was not too late now. There were also many medicinal herbs stored in the space, and it was estimated that most of them would be used up this time.
After finishing her meal, Mrs. Xu went to knock on her daughter's door.
"Knock, knock, knock."
When Mengyue heard a knock on the door, she stopped what she was doing and put all the things on the table into the space.
"What's up."
Mrs. Gui said softly, "Yueyue, it's time to eat."
"Okay, wait."
Mengyue opened the door and went to eat with Shi.
I saw that the seat where she usually sat was already occupied by someone, a stranger girl.
Mengyue walked forward, lifted the strange girl by the collar, put her aside, took out a handkerchief, wiped the stool, and sat down.
"Ah! Who dares to touch Miss?"
The stranger girl was sitting quietly when she was suddenly lifted up. She was startled and turned around to see a girl about her age. She immediately got angry.
"Who are you? Who told you to mention me? Get out of here and get lost."
Faced with the stranger girl's clamor, Mengyue ignored her and picked up the clean dishes and started to eat.
With a "crash" sound.
As soon as Mengyue put the dishes on the table, they were swept to the ground by a strange girl.
The stranger girl saw the dishes and chopsticks fall to the ground, snorted coldly, and then said, "Don't you know who you are? How dare you sit in my seat?"
[Who is so bold as to provoke the God of Death Su? I admire you.]
The system heard old lady Peiyi instruct Mrs. Peiyi to make meat dishes and steamed eggs, and wanted to take the opportunity to eat more.
It was waiting while Su Yu was preparing the medicine powder. Unexpectedly, as soon as Su Yu sat down and had no time to eat, someone came to cause trouble.
It's rare to see a girl who is about the same age as Suka. When the system makes trouble for her, it even forgets its favorite food and puts all its attention on Suka.
Mengyue had never thought that someone would dare to provoke her so blatantly, but seeing the other party's arrogant and ignorant look, she didn't even have the desire to fight back. It was really a feeling that she had won unfairly by arguing with such a person.
Then he turned to Mrs. Yu and said, "Mother, please bring me another set of bowls and chopsticks."
"Hey, Mom will go right away."
Seeing her mother-in-law Jia Jia making things difficult for her daughter, Mrs. Wang was so nervous that she wanted to say something, but seeing her mother-in-law's expression, she didn't dare to speak up. When her daughter asked her to get the dishes and chopsticks, she felt relieved but also felt sorry for her daughter.
