Chapter 50

Views:

Fang Li is a righteous person, but he has also seen many people coming and going.

Even though Ye Pingrong dressed up like a plain-headed commoner, the common people didn't have this tall and strong appearance, especially the coldness between his eyebrows made Fang Li's first reaction be that this person was not a good person.

When the wine shop opened before, some local gangsters came to make trouble, and Fang Li was afraid that this person was also here to make trouble.

But he couldn't say it clearly, he could only be silent, ready to greet the people brought by Steward Song to come and ask carefully.

But at this time, Mrs. Dong came out from the back hall to help her husband, and happened to hear what Ye Pingrong said.

Dong Shi stepped forward and looked at him with a smile: "Who is your master?"

In fact, if Ye Pingrong wants to go in and see his little sister, he only needs to say that I am the eldest brother of your boss, but in Ye Dalang's heart, Ye Jiao and Qi Yun can't be a long-term husband and wife, and he naturally doesn't want to be involved with the Qi family. , so he replied calmly: "My family... the lady boss, surnamed Meng, my boss is not at ease, let me come over and take a look."

As soon as Mr. Dong heard it, he knew that this person was indeed from the Meng family pharmacy, and gave Fang Li a wink.

Fang Li understood and led Ye Pingrong in with a smile.

And Mr. Dong gave Fang Li a sigh of relief and then returned to the back hall.

But just as she sat down beside Ye Jiao, she saw two people come in.

Ye Jiao looked up with the tea cup, and recognized that the leader was Mrs. Zhang, whom she had seen before praying in the temple, and behind her was a woman in green with a veil brushing her face, looking like a weak willow. Fufeng.

Zhang Shi had fought against Liu Shi in the temple before. Although Ye Jiao didn't know that he had slapped Liu Shi in the face, Little Ginseng could see that she had a bad relationship with her mother-in-law.

Therefore, after Mrs. Zhang came in, Ye Jiao pretended not to see it, neither got up nor said a word.

Dong Shi didn't get up to greet her either. Seeing Ye Jiao looking at her, she smiled and said, "I don't want to greet everyone. They don't rank among these people, and their family's business is not big, so wait. Just say hello in a while."

Ye Jiao didn't pay attention to Zhang's family business. She just looked at the masked woman and asked, "Why is she covering her face?"

Mrs Dong glanced at her and covered her mouth with a handkerchief: "That is Mrs Qian, her daughter-in-law. She always prides herself on her beauty, so she has to cover her face with a veil to avoid being seen by others."

Ye Jiao blinked and couldn't help but wonder, "How beautiful is it?"

Mr. Dong didn't look at Mrs. Qian, but looked at Ye Jiao and Mrs. Meng, and said, "Not as good as Jiao Niang Huiniang."

Ye Jiao was born pretty and bright, and Meng's was graceful and graceful, so Dong's words were not a compliment.

But in this way, the little ginseng doesn't understand even more: "If that's the case, what is she doing in the way?"

Mr. Dong thought for a while: "Perhaps you are afraid of attracting the attention of others?"

"I'm afraid her intentions are just the opposite." Meng Shi's voice was soft, "As the saying goes, the more ordinary people are hidden in the city, the less people will attract attention. Everyone else is relaxed, but she wiped her face with a light veil to see When she gets up, she hides herself, but instead attracts attention, because she is afraid that others will not see her beauty."

Ye Jiao heard the words and tilted her head slightly: "But Chunlan said, she is not as good as you and me."

Meng Shi covered her lips and smiled, and said nothing, and instead chatted with Ye Jiao about flowers and plants.

On the other side, Mrs Zhang was also grinding his teeth secretly.

Her daughter-in-law, Qian Shi, was a high-spirited person, and she came from an ordinary family and couldn't climb high branches, so she made do with marrying Zhang's son.

But after marriage, Qian's wife will still be a demon, either crying in the daytime or playing the piano in the middle of the night. She has done the poses of the stunning beauties in this novel, and she wears either white or plain clothes.

Mrs. Zhang's family is in business, and it's not a big business, but they can make a living. She originally married Mrs. Qian because she was smarter than the other women, and she could read and write, thinking that she could help the family. .

Who would have thought that this Qian family would rather shed tears on dead branches in broad daylight, regardless of the family's dime, and always wear dejected clothes, which is taboo for businessmen.

If you are a young lady, or a wealthy family, then what do you want to do, you will be spoiled by a family around you, and naturally no one will care about you.

But in the final analysis, Zhang's husband's family is a small family, and the money earned from small business is also earned by hard work. Where did this person get his stinky temper

Mrs. Zhang was annoyed and asked her, but Mrs. Qian was plausible, saying that she didn't want to be contaminated with the odor of copper, and the province was contaminated with pure white.

This makes Zhang Shi do not understand, if there is no such copper odor, where did you get your good clothes and pen and paper? Is the wind blowing? Co-authored that he married a Bodhisattva and went home.

But Mrs. Zhang's son likes her. Usually, he can't talk or move. Everything is up to Mrs. Qian. For the sake of her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhang is angry with Mrs. Zhang. After all, Mrs. Zhang loves her son.

However, Qian Shi is not a really arrogant and talented girl. Everything she does is just to look good, so she can take a break from the work at home.

Can eat ready-made, Qian Shi is not willing to use his brain to help the family.

It's just that she is really proud of her beauty, and she has always felt that no one can compare to her. This time, in front of Qi's pharmacy, Qian put on a beautiful bead hairpin and beautiful clothes, which is to save her beauty. came from the mind.

If Mrs. Zhang knew what her daughter-in-law was thinking, she would be thrown home.

After the results came, Qian saw Ye Jiao and Meng at a glance.

In terms of appearance, they are more beautiful, and in terms of pearls, they are more delicate, and they are incomparable in everything.

The effect of taking off the spun yarn that he originally thought to attract the admiration of the people around was no longer. Qian Shi actually secretly wiped away his tears, making Zhang Shi's temples jump with anger.

There was a sense of liveliness all around, but Mrs. Zhang had no choice. She dragged Mrs. Qian out of the main room and went to the corridor next to the garden, scolding in a low voice, "It's okay to let you cry and cry at home, don't go outside. Come and embarrass me!"

Qian felt wronged, but she couldn't say where she was wronged, and it became more and more uncomfortable to be scolded like this.

Zhang Shi was so angry that he wanted to hit her, but he loved her when he gave birth to his own son.

Now, Mrs. Zhang's eldest son is talking to other merchants in front. If she knows that she has cleaned up, she is afraid that she will make trouble with herself again. Tears are taken away, mother knows that you want to come out and fight for your breath, but there is no need to toss yourself so much, if Dalang sees it, I am afraid it will be distressed."

Qian looked aggrieved at Zhang and whispered, "Mother, I just can't get angry."

Annoyed by what? Angry but people are prettier than you

That's the president of the family. What's the use of you being angry, you've never seen such an idle person, you're too stupid.

Although he thought so in his heart, Mrs Qian said on his mouth: "Dalang can accompany you anyway, so what can Mrs. Ye have? Erlang of Qi family passed it on to Langzhong during the Chinese New Year. Do you want to be a widow if you look good?" The more she said about Mrs. Zhang, the more she felt it was true, especially when she thought of the anger that Mrs. Liu gave her in the temple a few years ago, the more she realized that it was Mrs. Liu's dead duck mouth.

Qian shi was stunned for a moment, and then there was a smile on his face: "Really?"

"I can't lie to you." Mrs. Zhang also thought of taking this opportunity to beat her daughter-in-law, "As long as you treat Dalang well in the future, there will be a lot of good days, but Dalang is completely free from disease and disaster, I don't know. How good, why do you have to fight for this moment."

Qian shi nodded again and again, breaking his tears into a smile, as if he felt at ease when others were having a bad time.

When the emotions calmed down, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left as if nothing happened, but Ye Pingrong, who was in the dark, listened to them completely.

Ye Dalang narrowed his eyes, clenched his fists tightly, and his back molars hurt.

In the main room, Zhang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were not valued by anyone, and their departure and return did not attract much attention.

Seeing that there is still a period of time before the auspicious time, Dong's asked people to serve new dim sum.

This time, it was hot red bean paste. The boiled red beans had filtered out the bean skin, leaving only the soft red bean paste, with fine sugar, white glutinous rice dumplings and chopped preserved fruit garnished. It tastes soft and sweet, and it is very warm.

Many people are thinking in their hearts that the Qi family has indeed made a lot of money, and even their own family is reluctant to eat such sweet things, but they are used to entertain guests.

But Ye Jiao didn't care that much, and didn't think this thing was fresh.

She ate a few meat buns in the morning, and she wasn't hungry at the moment, so she just ate a bowl to taste fresh and then put it down.

Meng Shi just touched her mouth, her eyes vaguely seeing the figure flashing outside the main room, she couldn't help but look at Ye Jiao.

Seeing Ye Jiao throwing down the bowl, she also put down the spoon and said with a smile: "Jiao Niang, if you have nothing to do, would you like to accompany me out for a walk? The sun outside is just right, and I am also curious about what the auspicious flowers you mentioned look like. What does it look like?"

Ye Jiao heard the words and looked at Dong Shi: "Will Chunlan go together?"

Dong shi said with a smile: "You guys go first, I'll go look for you when I'm done here."

Ye Jiao nodded with a smile, got up and took Xiao Su to the back garden with Meng Shi.

However, the Meng family is not here for auspicious flowers, but only to be a favor to Ye Pingrong.

When he saw Ye Pingrong, Meng Shi stopped.

Ye Jiao looked at him in surprise: "Brother, why are you here?"

Ye Jiao didn't see Ye Pingrong when she closed in front of the stall before. Naturally, she didn't know that he was the guard of Chu Chengyun and Meng Shi, and Ye Pingrong had no intention of dragging her little sister into it, so she didn't point it out. With Meng Shi slightly cupped his hands: "Madam, can my little sister and I take a step to talk?"

Meng Shi nodded. That's what she meant. There was no accident at the moment. She walked aside to look at the flowers on her own.

Ye Jiao, on the other hand, walked towards Ye Pingrong, and before she could speak, she heard Ye Pingrong say, "Jiao Niang, I have suffered for you these past few years."

Ye Jiao was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but raise her head to look, and saw Ye Pingrong with tears in her eyes, looking at herself with pity.

Little Ginseng seldom cried, except for one time when Qi Yun was anxious before, she didn't cry much at other times. After all, every day was comfortable and there was nothing to cry.

Seeing that Ye Pingrong, an eight-foot tall man, actually cried when he cried, Ye Jiao was at a loss.

She hurriedly handed over the handkerchief: "I'm not suffering, really, my life is better. Brother, please don't cry, the weather is cold and you hurt your eyes carefully."

The woman's voice was soft and caring, but it made Ye Pingrong even more sentimental.

So many years on the battlefield is the edge of life and death, not to mention eyes, even life is worthless, and it can be lost at any time.

Who can even think about taking care of themselves

That is to say, my little sister can be nervous about herself, but she did not arrange for her before she left, so that she was harmed by the second brother like a jackal, suffered a lot, and suffered a big crime.

Ye Pingrong, who had made Ye Jiao's brain into a little cabbage in winter, became more and more depressed, but the tears stopped.

He didn't have the temperament of long-term love for children. He was just agitated for a while, but fortunately, his mind was still sensible.

Reluctant to use Ye Jiao's handkerchief, Ye Pingrong only wiped his eyes with his fingers, and then said to Ye Jiao seriously: "Jiao Niang, you don't have to be afraid of the Qi family, I am also a seventh-rank rank now, although I can't compare to a civil official. , but it is also on the court salary, as long as I make the decision to let you reconcile, the Qi family will not dare to force you to keep you."

… and away

Ye Jiao was stunned for a moment, then shook her head subconsciously: "Brother, I am not at peace."

However, Ye Pingrong had already preconceived that Ye Jiao's life was not easy, especially after inquiring about Qi Yun, he thought about the miserable life that Ye Jiao might encounter several times in his head.

Now after hearing Ye Jiao's words, Ye Pingrong thought to himself, 'Little sister is soft-hearted and can't bear to worry about me', but he persuaded: "Everyone knows that Qi Erlang is not in good health, Ye Er is a bastard. Things, but the big brother will not harm you, if you want, I will take care of you for the rest of your life, and if you want to become a female household on your own, I will also help you."

Ye Jiao didn't understand what a female household was, but she understood that Ye Pingrong had misunderstood.

This person really cares about himself, but his concern is a little crooked.

If there is a misunderstanding, make it clear. Little ginseng does not like vagueness, and the words that should be said are never sloppy.

She raised her head and looked at Ye Pingrong, and answered him seriously: "Brother, what I said is true, I didn't lie to you. Although Xianggong was not in good health before, he is better now. My mother-in-law is good to me, and Xianggong's family is also a brother. Harmony, I have never been wronged."

Ye Pingrong heard the words, did not speak, just looked at her.

Ye Jiao wasn't afraid that he wouldn't believe her, she was only determined by one thing: "I won't get along, I want to live with Xianggong for the rest of my life."

The voice of the little ginseng was soft and a little waxy, but the words were loud and clear, which also shook Ye Pingrong's original idea.

At this moment, Xiao Su, who had never dared to speak to disturb them, saw Tie Zi beckoning to him from a distance.

She hurriedly stepped forward and said to Ye Jiao, "Second Young Mistress, Second Young Master is here."

Ye Jiao heard the words, as if she had someone to support her, she immediately smiled, and said to Ye Pingrong: "Brother, let Xianggong talk to you, he always makes sense, let him talk to you will definitely be better than me. Speak clearly."

In fact, Ye Pingrong was very shocked when he heard that Qi Yun was coming. After all, according to the rumors outside, Qi Erlang was terminally ill, and he was lingering on the bed every day, and it seemed that he would die anytime, anywhere.

As a result, people went out quietly

Seeing Ye Jiao drag Xiao Su all the way to the door, Ye Pingrong hurriedly followed behind them.

For others, the arrival of Qi Yun's carriage also brought a lot of surprise.

What Ye Pingrong can hear, they can also know, and Qi Yun has been hiding in Qi's house all the time without seeing outsiders, even if the shop stewards blow him up, others will not believe it.

Moreover, in the rumors about Qi Yun, in addition to saying that he was sick and dying, that is to say that he was disgusting, looked fierce, and could stop children from crying at night.

This made many people want to go out and take a look, and see what Qi Erlang looks like.

Even the women who were chatting in the main room looked at each other and went to the corridor outside tacitly, looking out eagerly.

Just when Ye Jiao ran to the door, Qi Yun's carriage stopped.

Tie Zi hurried forward to move the low stool, lifted the curtain, and reached out to help Qi Yun, but Qi Yun said lightly inside, "No need."

The man's voice was good to hear, but now there is no hoarse and tearing in the pain, it sounds like a stone entering a clear spring, clean and clear.

When Qi Yun got out of the carriage, the surroundings suddenly became quiet for a moment, and Ye Pingrong suddenly stopped, staring blankly at his cheap brother-in-law.

Qi Yun stood there, with clear eyes and a pale expression, as bright as a jade tree in front of the wind.
