The rain in the south of the Yangtze River is always unexpected.
There was a spring rain last night, and the bluestone slabs polished to a mirror-like smoothness after years of walking were covered with dampness. There was a blue color spreading under the steps, and the moss that exploded with vigorous vitality due to the warmer weather was crawling everywhere.
It's not easy to get off.
The woman who came to wash clothes by the river with a wooden basin, Xiaoyu, held up the hem of her skirt delicately, and occasionally said a word or two to her companion.
The women who came early by the river have already left with their basins, and a new batch of new ones are squatting by the river, there is never a lack of excitement.
Aunt Yang's person is a young widow with handsome features and a good-looking girl. It's a pity that her husband died at a young age, and now a blind old woman and an uncle who has not yet reached the crown are waiting for her to take care of her in-laws. They are also hard-working people.
Fortunately, a few days ago, the village moved to a new owner. The new boss is kind-hearted, seeing her as a weak girl, he asks her to go to Zhuangzi to help with the work, settle the monthly payment for her, and subsidize the family.
Aunt Yang is a person who knows how to repay her kindness. She stayed in Zhuangzi for a month and worked diligently.
No, as soon as the weather turns warm, she brings the clothes of her new owner to wash.
As soon as Aunt Yang put the clothes into the river, following the current, a light and smoky gauze skirt instantly swung away, swaying in the water like algae, and like a box of indigo cinnabar that accidentally fell into the water, melting away color.
Very nice.
The people next to him quickly gathered together and gasped in amazement.
"Aunt Yang, are these your boss's clothes? Hey, let me see, what a good material, I have never seen such a good material in my life."
"Yes, my boss doesn't like others touching her clothes, Aunt Niu, be careful." Aunt Yang gathered the clothes calmly and held them in her hands to prevent others from touching them.
The last time she came to wash the clothes of her master, because the pattern was so beautiful, several women asked her if she could cut a pattern so that she could weave one by herself when she went home.
We are all neighbors, and Aunt Yang agreed out of kindness. But those people didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. When drawing the figure, the charcoal pencil accidentally stained the clothes of the boss. The material of clothes is expensive, and once it gets dirty, it is not easy to wash. A black scratch on the top, how ugly.
If it wasn't for the good intentions of the boss who didn't care about her, Aunt Yang would have lost her job. At this moment, how could it be so risky

"Cut, isn't it just a piece of clothing? You're so stingy." Aunt Niu didn't please, and quickly left in anger.
Before leaving, purposely splashed the water by the river, messing with Aunt Yang.
Aunt Yang didn't say anything, she finished washing her clothes silently, then walked back to the village with the basin in hand.
On the way back, I heard Aunt Niu and her neighbor talking nonsense, as if they were waiting for Aunt Yang deliberately, especially blocking the way she had to pass.
"Why don't you say what kind of pot should match what kind of lid? They widows deserve widows, and they are getting angry. The men are gone, and their tails are up to the sky. Ask her a few words, and now they ignore her."
"I don't think the new owner is a good thing. She looks like a goblin. I didn't see the day she came. The battle was so big. Those who drove the car drove, those who led the horse led the horse, what? The widow whose husband died, I don't think so. If the husband died, wouldn't there be a son? Why don't you enjoy the happiness at home, and why come to this poor country? In my opinion, some official lord raised her in the outer room , I can't see anyone."
"You're rich, but it's not that you can't get in. The lady in the main house saw it, and she wanted to copy the house law and beat you."
They were knocking pumpkin seeds while talking, the voice came along the wind, and Aunt Yang blushed from holding back.
not like this!
The owner is not that kind of person!
As a widow, Aunt Yang can't help being gossiped about, and she's used to being bullied, but the new owner is like a living Bodhisattva, such a good-looking person, like a fairy in the sky, she doesn't allow others to slander her!
Aunt Yang was furious, and rushed up with a hammering stick, beating the two women: "You are talking nonsense! You are talking nonsense!!"
The three women fought.
Country shrews fighting, the scene must be ugly.
Aunt Niu has always been a well-known shrew in all over the world, and she has a helper, so she thought it would be easy to deal with a weak Aunt Yang, but Aunt Yang usually keeps silent, so she initiates a fight.
The last three were not pleased.
When Zhou Yun came, the three of them had already finished fighting.
Aunt Yang's hair was messed up, she looked like a crazy woman, and there was a little blood on her forehead, and the other two didn't feel better.
Especially Aunt Niu, who was lying on the ground disregarding her face at this time.
"She bullied me, she bullied me, oh god, come and see."
Originally, there were already a lot of people who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal, but as soon as Zhou Yun appeared, he immediately quieted down, and there was inevitably a little more solemnity in the relationship.
There is no other reason, it feels like it is too rude to be in front of her as usual, and it will make people feel that her eyes are dirty.
Although Zhou Yun was wearing a veiled hat, he couldn't see his face clearly, but his demeanor was unparalleled, and no one dared to show embarrassment in front of her.
"Master." Aunt Yang burst into tears and said, "I... it's my fault. I shouldn't argue with them and cause trouble for my master."
If she loses her wages, the family will really be in trouble. Aunt Yang regretted that she was being impulsive.
Zhou Yun is used to bullying the strong and fearing the weak, and he hates seeing women shed tears in front of her eyes. Not only did he not blame him, but he said instead: "You did a good job."
There is nothing wrong with being loyal and brave, even if you behave improperly.
Even if she was no longer the noble concubine of that day, Zhou Yun never thought of wronging herself.
It's been a while since I've been here, Zhou Yun may not have heard of those gossip, but she stayed in the harem, and she has seen all the methods of pickling.
When someone scolds her head, once or twice, she can treat it as a novelty, but if there are too many, she will inevitably get bored. It's too cheap to compare with some of them, and it's not worth it.
Aunt Yang helped her out.
Aunt Niu complained to Zhou Yunfa: "It's all the evil servant you are used to! She hurt me, and now I have to pay for her! I look like I can't go to the field for about ten days and a half months. The money for missing work, You have to pay her. There is an old saying that when you enter the country, do as the Romans do. If a woman who has just entered the country has never followed the Romans, let it be. If she bullies us, there is no such reason.”
Aunt Yang's face was flushed, and she gave her a hard look.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Yunying was very straightforward, as if he had no temper: "Yes, I will pay for her, a drop of money."
Aunt Niu was overjoyed, and when she was complacent, she heard Zhou Yun say: "I wanted to exempt the tenants from the farm from handing in their harvest, and give them a few years of happiness. But it seems that I don't need it anymore. The money will be given to you, and I will give you a few years of happiness." The family will continue as usual, and the other family will be exempted for three years."
"What?" Aunt Niu was stunned, ", is just a woman who lives in Zhuangtou's house, why should she say that she is exempt?"
If it's free, it's free, why doesn't Dudu give her free? It's not fair! A little money is good, but compared to those who are exempted from paying the food, it is nothing!
Why did she pick up the sesame seeds and lose the watermelon!
Aunt Niu regretted not falling, and stared at Zhou Yun, waiting for her reply, but Zhou Yun ignored her.
Zhou Yun raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "My ancestral family is a person from the capital city. The first time they migrated here, it was not because of some shady business, but because I bought his field, his land, and his land from our old village head. The rented house and his tenants are all owned by me."
The top of the mountain and the thousand slopes of fertile land are all properties under her name. Relying on her nephew and son-in-law being the emperor, the government sent her the documents quickly, which was just the completion of the transfer procedures.
Although she didn't seal a thousand households, the benefits of falling into her hands are real, no worse than those who are sealed as marquises. No need to hold a job, he is a complete rich and idle person.
Sitting in the palace, facing the three-acre land, and then fighting to the death.
It couldn't be more enjoyable than sitting on this mountain top, where all the clouds around her can be seen as far as the eye can see.
