Chapter 73 Ancient Peasant Girl 23



Of course, Meng Changjin did not directly contact the gossip girl group to convey the information.

At the Yu family's thatched cottage at the head of the village, with the autumn harvest over, the family has nothing to do except drying the millet.

They quarreled in the yard every day over trivial matters.

Old Mrs. Yu has been in a bad mood recently because of Old Man Yu's affairs, so she is in no mood to care about other people's noise.

This kind of environment really annoyed Yu Jiaojiao.

If it were still the way it was before, everyone was harmonious and she lived comfortably, but recently, her living standard has declined. She still seems to be the one living the best, and other people in the Yu family do leave the good things for her. But even if they have taken out the best for them, it is still not as good as before. How can Yu Jiaojiao be happy?

People just can't stand the memories, because the memories are too beautiful, the comparison is even more cruel, and makes her hate her current life even more.

"Today we went to pick pears in the village. The second and third daughters-in-law took baskets to share some." Old Mrs. Yu was annoyed by the three daughters-in-law's quarreling, so she simply separated them.

This would at least give her some peace of mind.

"Second Aunt, Third Aunt, I'll go with you." Yu Jiaojiao walked out of the room and said.

She was simply bored of staying here and wanted to go out for some fresh air.

"Jiaojiao wants to go, then grandma will go with you." When old lady Yu faced Yu Jiaojiao, a kind smile immediately appeared on her face. Then the team changed from a team of Yu Li and Yu Liu to a team of four people, including Yu Li, Yu Liu, Yu Jiaojiao and old lady Yu.

Meng Changjin looked at it a little confused. She was still thinking about how to get Yu Jiaojiao to walk out of the yard and go to the village to listen to the gossip girl group's talk. Now, before she even made any effort, the incident had already happened.

Was it because Yu Jiaojiao and the scholar who had an affair were destined to be together, or was it something else? Meng Changjin didn't understand, but she found that Yu Jiaojiao's aura had been getting darker and darker recently. Originally, it was a mixture of black and red. Although the red was less, it could still be seen clearly. Now, it could only be seen vaguely.

Meng Changjin felt that she had probably figured out some rules, that is, the red energy in Yu Jiaojiao's body could be consumed, and while the red energy was being consumed, the black energy was increasing.

The black energy represents some bad and ominous symbols.

Does this mean that even if she doesn't do anything, Yu Jiaojiao will kill herself?

No one gave Meng Changjin an accurate answer to her guess, so she continued to follow Yu Jiaojiao and the others from a distance where they would not notice her, so that she could observe the situation more easily.

The reason why Lihua Village is called Lihua Village is because there is a huge pear tree in the center of the village.

After the autumn harvest, the pears are ripe. Every year, the pears picked from the pear tree in the center of the village are distributed to the villagers of Lihua Village.

When Old Lady Yu and her friends arrived, the pear tree was already surrounded by people in three circles inside and outside.

Some people who are good at tree climbing have already climbed up the sturdy pear tree, while people below are holding sheets so that those who have picked pears from the tree can throw the pears directly down from the tree without them being smashed.

This is an annual event in Lihua Village, so everyone is familiar with the process.

Yu Li and Yu Liu each carried a basket, while Yu Jiaojiao, who was walking next to them, held nothing in her hands, making Yu Li and Yu Liu look like the old women serving her.

Yu Jiaojiao is the village beauty of Lihua Village. As soon as she appears, the men who are not yet wives can't help but cast their eyes on her.

Of course, the men who were already married would also take a look, and then their wives would poke them in the waist, pinch their arms, and then they would quickly look away.

Yu Jiaojiao, however, felt contempt for these looks in her heart, but she did not show it on her face.

She really looked down on these farmers and peasants, but she enjoyed the feeling of being treated like a fairy by these people.

It's probably like the kind of goddess who looks down on lickers but still accepts all the benefits of them.

Meng Changjin was amazed as he watched. In the feudal ancient background, Yu Jiaojiao's ideas could be considered trendy.

Is this the ancient version of the female sea king? Yu Jiaojiao stood at the outermost edge of the crowd, graceful and elegant. In a situation where no one was as well dressed and looked as good as her, she was the focus of the crowd, and was indeed extraordinary and otherworldly.

Liu Zhi came with his classmates to see the lively pear distribution in Lihua Village, but when he approached the crowd, he noticed Yu Jiaojiao, who stood out from the crowd.

Coincidentally, Yu Jiaojiao also looked over there at this moment. Their eyes met in the air. They stared at each other for a long time before they looked away.

After looking away, Yu Jiaojiao lowered her head silently. Liu Zhize seemed to have thought of something, looked at the classmate next to him, and then spoke unnoticeably, guiding the topic, and inquired about Yu Jiaojiao's name and situation.

When Liu Zhi heard that Yu Jiaojiao was the darling of the entire Yu family and even her brothers and sisters were not as good as her, his eyelids drooped slightly.

Originally everyone was watching the people picking pears from the tree and chatting around, probably about how many pears each household would get this year. When they saw the widow's son, who was studying, coming over with his classmate who was said to be very good at studying, the topic suddenly changed and they started talking about how good the other person was and how they heard it would be easy for him to pass the imperial examination and become a scholar.

Hearing this, Yu Jiaojiao pursed her lips and rolled her eyes a few times.

Meng Changjin, who was observing secretly, wanted to applaud.

It seems that the gossip girl group's propaganda in the village a few days ago, and the fact that ancient people always respected scholars, did achieve the result she hoped to achieve.

She was just wondering how she could quietly guide everyone if they didn't talk about this, but it turned out that there was no need at all. The tedious preparations in the early stages were combined together, and by chance she achieved the scene she expected.

Considering Yu Jiaojiao's eagerness to marry into a wealthy family and enjoy a good life, and Liu Zhi's eyes that showed he had evil intentions, Meng Changjin felt that she could just sit back and wait for the net to close.

Liu Zhi felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the villagers of Lihua Village praising him as if he were the God of Literature. After all, he knew what kind of person he was, but he did not explain.
