Views:

Unexpectedly, on the day of the banquet, Miao Tianbao saw Tong Yuer's beauty, drunk a few bowls of wine and went into the new house to make fun of others, scared Tong Yuer turned pale and ran out of the new house, Miao Tianbao was still smiling Chasing after.

At that time, everyone was eating and drinking lively, and they were stunned when they saw this. Miao Chuhe, who was toasting, was furious, and poured a bowl of wine on Miao Tianbao's face, and several uncles and brothers sitting close hurriedly grabbed Miao Tianbao and took him down forcibly.

Seeing her son being bullied, Mrs. Xia took the opportunity to make a fuss, and the elders in the clan were furious. The third uncle stopped Xia with a cold face, saying that she did not discipline her son strictly enough to not regret it. Still dare to slap? Do you want mother and son to enter the ancestral hall together again

As a younger brother, he molested his sister-in-law who had just entered the house, and even chased him down in the public. If word spread, the entire Miao family would be ridiculed.

Xia's face paled all of a sudden and he dared not speak anymore, but Miao Chuhe took the opportunity to kneel in front of the third uncle and the elders, implicitly expressing that he would go to the academy in the future, how his wife can feel at ease at home, and asked the elders to help decide.

The third uncle and the others all knew the virtues of Miao Tianbao and the Xia family, so they couldn't help being stunned when they heard this. But Miao Chuhe is the seedling of hope for the Miao family. If he can't study at ease because he is thinking about his daughter-in-law at home all day long, when will he be able to pass the Juren and Jinshi exams? The Miaojia Village is still waiting for him to be proud and prestige in the surrounding villages!

Xia was so angry that she shouted again: "What do you mean? Since ancient times, which family's daughter-in-law doesn't have to do housework and serve her mother-in-law? Where else can she go if she doesn't stay at home? You are disobedient and unfilial!"

The third uncle and the others glared at Ye Shi bitterly, but they couldn't refute her words.

Mrs. Xia sneered, secretly proud of herself, and said to herself, just do it, wait a few days, and see how the old lady will deal with that little girl! Hmph, that foxy look is someone who fled from somewhere, so it doesn't look like a serious person at first glance! Even if something happens to her, she still dares to say that she can't get out!

At this time, Miao Cuilan came out and sighed softly: "I still lack people to make tofu, why don't you let Yu'er go to my place to help!"

"No! I don't agree!" Mrs. Xia refused immediately.

"I think it's settled like this!" The third uncle said coldly: "You said you married a wife, but did you pay for the engagement? The money for the banquet was paid by Cuilan, so you have the nerve to pretend to be your mother-in-law." Airs? Don’t you want to spend money on Chuhe’s school? Cuilan has paid for it these few years. He married a wife and asked her to help his sister. Do you have any objections? What are you so worried about? You wish that Chuhe would not pass the exam, right? Hmph, let me tell you, Chuhe is the hope of our Miao family, if you dare to make trouble, you will be the enemy of the whole village!"

Seeing that everyone was helping Miao Chuhe and sister Xia, the hatred in her heart was indescribable. She really wanted to have a big fight with the third uncle regardless of Sapo, but her husband was gone. In the end, she learned how to be good because of the loss she suffered. She endured and endured the anger in her heart and snorted: "If you want to go, that's fine. But the wages need to be handed over to me! This is my daughter-in-law. A man who works for nothing!"

Miao Cuilan was angry and funny, and when she saw her third uncle looking over, she readily agreed, "Of course there is wages, two denarii a month, and this month's wages will be paid at the beginning of next month."

Xia felt that it was too little, and was still muttering about wanting to increase the price, but was glared and scolded several times by the third uncle, so she had to swallow her breath and dare not speak.

Everyone sighed in their hearts when they saw it, they all felt that it was not easy for Miao Cuilan and her husband, Xia's behavior was really despised.

A major event was finally settled, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued to feast and drink, and parted happily.

After everyone left, it was getting late, so Miao Cuilan, Lu Zhong and their three children spent the night at another family's house in the village. It is inevitable for the Xia family to sneer at Miao Chuhe and criticize her. Miao Chuhe has long been used to just not listening to her and is too lazy to talk to her. Anyway, now that he has grown up and is the only scholar in the village, the Xia family will never be like before. The same as doing it yourself, even if he scolds, he doesn't dare to name her. If he quarrels with her, he will think highly of her!

Xia Shi deliberately scolded under the window of the new house, Miao Chuhe's immunity has already been trained so it can be ignored, but where has Tong Yu'er seen such a battle? I feel uncomfortable and uneasy like a needle prick in my heart. It was originally a day of great joy, but it made my heart feel depressed and lost half of my joy.

Seeing her like this, Miao Chuhe didn't feel guilty in his heart, held her hand and said softly: "Yu'er, I have wronged you..."

Tong Yu'er's heart warmed, she raised her eyes and said with a smile: "I have nothing, but this night is all, let's go to my sister and brother-in-law's tomorrow. But you, you must have had a hard time these years, right?"

Miao Chuhe smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to hug her in his arms, and sighed softly: "Fortunately, my sister and brother-in-law are here, so I didn't suffer much. Yu'er, in the future at my sister's and brother-in-law's house, you have to—"

"I know," Tong Yu'er raised her hand to gently cover his mouth and said softly, "You can rest assured in the academy, I will get along well with my sister and brother-in-law, learn to do housework, and listen to my sister's brother-in-law to help with work , Whether it’s cooking, washing, chopping firewood, or working the fields, I, I can learn it. My sisters and brothers-in-law are so kind to us, and we must repay them.”

Miao Chuhe smiled and said: "I'm relieved if you think so! Yu'er, I will definitely live up to you. In the future—let's talk about it in the future, and I will prove it to you."

Tong Yu'er shyly said "Yes", and gently leaned into her husband's arms, and said in a low voice: "I believe in you, my vision is not wrong..."

Miao Chuhe smiled, hugged her and gently pressed her onto the bed.

One night of spring night, beautiful scenery on a good day.

Early the next morning, Miao Chuhe took Tong Yu'er and left Miao's house. Xia Shi looked on coldly, Miao Tianbao's greedy and lustful eyes wandered around Tong Yu'er without any concealment, Tong Yu'er was so ashamed and annoyed that she didn't even dare to lift her head. Miao Chuhe was also secretly annoyed, and took Tong Yu'er away without even eating breakfast.

Miao Chuhe stayed at Lu's house for three days and then went back to the academy, and the two bid farewell. Tong Yu'er has already changed into a Jingchai sarong to dress up as an ordinary village woman, helping with housework.

Miao Cuilan made it very clear in front of Miao Chuhe and Tong Yu'er on the day when the whole family returned to Lu's house: "I know you used to be the lady of a rich family, but this road is your own. You can only decide for yourself whether it is good or bad! Our family is an ordinary rural family, but we can’t afford to take care of the pampered eldest lady. Since it is agreed that you will come to help with work, what should I ask you to do? You will not be polite, and you, don’t be angry, and don’t be reluctant! If you don’t know, just ask me, don’t be bored in your heart, if you have any dissatisfaction, you can tell me face to face, and we can discuss and solve it! If you are embarrassed Tell me, when Chuhe came back, you told him the same thing. If you feel too hard and tired, or if you are not used to getting along with us, you can leave at any time. Everyone is happy to get together and leave. I have nothing to say. No! What I hate the most is gossips who gossip behind their backs. If anyone dares to chew their tongues behind their backs, I will not follow them! Also, some of your living habits at home are indispensable. Slowly change it, you have seen the situation in our family, it must be incomparable with yours! Of course, you are now my sister-in-law, and I will naturally protect you, and I will definitely not call you People bullied you! As for the words, let me make it clear to you first, so as not to cause any trouble in the future and make me uncomfortable!"

Miao Chuhe knew that his sister always spoke in such a straightforward way, and he also felt that what her sister said was reasonable, so he didn't know if Tong Yuer would have any thoughts, so he looked at Tong Yuer.

Tong Yu'er was still a little uneasy at first, but after all, she felt like she was under the fence. After hearing Miao Cuilan's words, she felt more at ease, and said with a smile: "If I can't appreciate my sister's kindness, I'll be damned! No, please teach me, no matter what I am asked to do! Don’t worry, sister, Yu’er will do her part in the future, and don’t teach my sister and brother-in-law to embarrass me!”

"That's right, sister, Yu'er is not the kind of young lady who is spoiled and spoiled, so don't worry too much, sister." Miao Chuhe also said hurriedly.

Miao Cuilan nodded and said with a smile, "I'm relieved if you all say that! From now on, this is your home, feel free to live here!"

Miao Chuhe and Tong Yuer thanked each other in a hurry.

After Miao Chuhe left, Tong Yu'er did work with Miao Cuilan every day. Miao Cuilan didn't ask her to do heavy work as soon as she came up. It was nothing more than cleaning the yard, cooking, boiling water, picking vegetables, cleaning the house, feeding the chickens and ducks, bathing Xiaoxue and Xiaoshu's two children and taking care of them. I also asked her to help out when making tofu, yuba, and dried tofu.

Tong Yu'er is very diligent and has a gentle and gentle temperament. She is very attentive and meticulous in her work, and she is not lazy. Miao Cuilan and Lu Zhong felt sorry for her and treated her very well. Xiaoxue, Xiaoshu, and Lu Qi also liked staying with her. The life of the family was very peaceful and harmonious, and Tong Yu'er gradually let go of her heart, unknowingly, she regarded herself as a member of the family.

It's a pity that some people let go of a good life, but they just want to make trouble.

Before a month had passed, I started to feel restless.

"Little aunt! Little aunt! It's not good! That scoundrel Miao Tianbao from the Miao family is here!" Tong Yu'er was cleaning the yard that day, when sisters Lu Xiaoshu and Xiaoxue rushed in from outside and shouted all the way.

Tong Yu'er was startled, and the broom in her hand fell to the ground with a "click", her face paled in shock. Although she deliberately designed Miao Tianbao on the day she married Miao Chuhe, bought someone to make Miao Tianbao half-drunk, and then used words to deliberately stimulate him to make him do such things, but that person's salivating and lustful The expression and eyes were not fake at all, which made Tong Yu'er feel sick and uncomfortable for a long time before she recovered.

Unexpectedly, he came again!
