After closing the door, the man complained to the woman:
"Why do you have to say it in front of others, it's so ugly."
The woman glared at him fiercely, and said sharply:
"Should I say it in front of others, let them all see our daughter's face? Don't complain to me, why is it so fierce? After we get married, won't I take care of this family? Besides, I will marry you again When you were born, you brought a full six oil bottles, and I only brought one son. What right do you have to kill me? I don’t know if your ex-wife is a pig. She can really give birth. There are two sons and four daughters, and there are no pigs. That's how it's raised."
"Say a few words less."
The man was also a little unhappy, his face was gloomy, but he still didn't dare to lose his temper at the woman, and said in a low voice:
"If it doesn't work, let Hu Luo get married later, and you don't have to marry the blacksmith's daughter. Xiaoye has already started to make money, so I don't think there's anything wrong with letting her try again."
The woman immediately started to put her hips on her hips and scold like a cannonball:
"Try again, try again and try to go to someone else's bed! It's okay if she wants to miss our family, look at her stingy appearance, she is not willing to spend any money she earns, will she have it in the future?"
"Besides, do you think that Hu Luo is not your own, so it doesn't matter? Do you still have a conscience? When we married you, our mother and I expected to have a stable family. Now you are starting to dislike me , are you going to kick us out next?"
"Also, don't even think about it. Even if Hu Luo's side is dragged down, your two sons will not get married in the future? What's the use of the two money you earned from farming? Say it yourself! What's the use! "
The young man named Hu Luo stood behind his mother, and said at the moment:
"Yanqi and I have been in love for a long time. It's impossible to procrastinate. What if her parents go back on their word? Originally, our family was not worthy of her family. If Yanqi didn't like me, how could it be possible? Accept this little dowry. Anyway, my sister will marry sooner or later, and I think the butcher is also very good. It is not good for everyone to get married sooner."
The mother nodded and said approvingly:
"That's right. Yanqi is a good girl, and she only asked for a dowry of eight gold coins, which is very low for a blacksmith's daughter. But how could Yunye sell for this price? There are several nearby villages, just next door. The butcher's family is relatively well-off, and he happened to be willing to pay this price to marry Yunye. After passing this village, there is no such shop. Although he is much older than Yunye, the older the man, the more reliable he is. I can't think of a more suitable marriage than this."
Seeing that Yun Ye didn't speak much, the woman put on a smile, walked up to one of Yun Ye's younger brothers, squatted down, and asked:
"Yun Qi, do you want to marry a wife in the future?"
The little boy bit his finger and nodded, and replied childishly:
"think."
The woman said again:
"If you want to marry a wife, you have to marry your older sister. Would you like to marry your older sister?"
The woman smiled smugly, like a human trafficker who tricked children with lollipops.
She knew that Yun Ye cared most about her younger siblings, as long as they spoke, Yun Ye had to agree even if she disagreed.
Unexpectedly, the little boy shook his head and replied crisply:
"I don't want to! I don't want my sister to marry someone."
"you!"
The woman choked for a moment, turned her head and got angry at Yunye dissatisfiedly:
"You taught him to say that? Even using your younger brother, you've got some skills."
Yun Ye defended in a low voice:
"I don't… "
The woman's voice instantly raised a few degrees:
"No? No one taught him, so he can say these words by himself? He also learned to lie, which is not bad, Yun Ye. It's just that he doesn't do anything serious and uses what he has learned to deal with his parents. It's really a trick."
Yun Ye clutched the hem of her clothes tightly and said nothing. The little boy named Yun Qi suddenly said loudly:
"I don't need my sister to teach me! I don't want my sister to marry a butcher. Everyone says that a butcher beats his wife. I don't want him to beat my sister!"
After finishing speaking, the little boy ran to Yun Ye's side, hugged her slender legs, and said in a crying voice:
"Sister, sister, I'm not looking for a wife anymore, please don't leave, okay..."
Before Yun Ye could answer, the woman grabbed the boy by the collar, dragged him back, pointed at the younger sister beside him and said:
"Okay, come on, I've become a bad person, have I become a bad person? You guys joined hands to deal with me, doesn't it seem ridiculous? Let me tell you, if your sister doesn't marry that butcher, she will marry To that butcher! All your sisters and sisters have to marry off, and they will never see each other again in this lifetime! Ask them if they would like to?"
The younger sisters were trembling with fright, and looked at Yunye with help-seeking eyes.
The father didn't speak, he just smoked a cigarette.
The scene was dead silent, Yun Ye raised her head and looked around the house. The small house is empty, full of holes and patches, everything is so old, the lighting is not good, and it is dark, as if it wants to eat people. There were a few dishes of side dishes on the table, no oil or water could be seen, not to mention the sallow and emaciated younger brothers and sisters, who had long been frightened by such quarrels and lost their minds.
Yun Ye smiled, and said with red eyes:
"...I promise."
The woman was dissatisfied, stood up, rolled her eyes, and said:
"Put on a grudging look for someone to see. Those who don't know think I'm forcing you. If you're angry and dissatisfied, you can just say it. Don't show your face. I don't like to watch it."
The man put down the cigarette in his hand and said:
"If you really don't want to marry, we won't marry."
Yun Ye raised her head and looked at her father, but the middle-aged man did not meet her gaze, but silently looked away. Yun Ye withdrew her gaze, and then glanced at her terrified younger siblings, the corners of her mouth were raised, her eyes were crooked, and her face was full of happiness:
"No, no, I'm really happy. After all, many people can't ask for such a marriage. It's my blessing."
The woman snorted and said:
"That's about the same."
The expression on Yunye's face relaxed a little, and she whispered:
"However, it's not enough now, I have to go out again..."
This time, before the woman could speak, a young man named Hu Luo stood up and stopped him first:
"No, this is not possible! What if you run away?"
Words and eyes are full of distrust towards this sister.
Yun Ye smiled wryly, and said to her father:
"I'm going to Yuxi City the day after tomorrow. Lord Yunyang asked me to go by name. His Excellency was arrested and needs a person to negotiate... Sister Zipu only gave me two days to prepare, and today has passed. I will stay for one night, and I will go back tomorrow. Otherwise, it will bring great trouble to this family."
After hearing Yun Ye's words, the woman looked at her suspiciously and said:
"Why doesn't Lord Yunyang look for anyone else for this kind of thing, but you? It's not your problem. Did you offend someone and he didn't like you?"
Having said that, when it comes to Lord Yunyang, the woman can only grit her teeth and say:
"I'll go back to Lingyun City with you tomorrow to see if this is the case. If you dare to lie to me, just wait, I have plenty of ways to make you regret it. Even if you really want to go to Yuxi City, it probably won't take ten days I'll be back in half a month, and when the time comes, hurry up and have the wedding with the butcher, and your brother is still waiting for the money."
Yunye nodded.
She really wanted to ask the woman in front of her, if she went to Yuxi City to negotiate successfully to take back Liyi and get some rewards from Lord Yunyang, would she not need to marry.
But she still didn't speak in the end.
This is an unnecessary question. Regardless of the source of the money, if she really has the money to marry Hu Luo, she won't have to marry a butcher.
But in fact, she knew very well in her heart how low the success rate of this negotiation was.
She doesn't know the past grievances between Liyi and Lide like Zipu, but in the entire Yunyang Lord's Mansion, no one knows Yuxi City and Lide better than her. She has repeatedly studied Lide's deeds, and has also kept chatting with businessmen who have been to Yuxi City. She knows that Lide is not as weak as he seems, and Yuxi City is not really a group of people who are ridiculous in the eyes of the world. weirdo.
So at the beginning she advised Li Yi not to act rashly, but unfortunately Li Yi didn't listen, she agreed to lend Li Neng soldiers and horses to attack Yuxi City. This move not only lost 1,500 troops in vain, but also gave Kaiya and Noren an excellent reason to raise prices, causing Yunyang to suffer even more losses.
Lide is like this, entrenched there like a hibernating snake, usually lazy, but will move out instantly when threatened, and devour the opponent first, leaving no bones left.
Now, she had to negotiate with the snake she knew.
Yun Ye didn't fall asleep almost all night, and every time when she was about to fall asleep, she couldn't stop crying when she remembered what happened today. She was afraid that people would hear her crying, so she bit the quilt, and gradually the pillow was wet.
When the sky was turning white, Yun Ye fell asleep for a short while, and had a dream in this short time.
She also dreamed of the handsome young and rich nobleman who often appeared in girls' fantasies. He pushed her against the wall and shook off countless gold, silver and jewels with his hand. While looking at her affectionately, he slowly approached her until he was about to kiss her. on her lips.
The difference is that when she had such unrealistic dreams before, she always woke up quickly and told herself with a slight smile that it was unrealistic. But this time, she has been unwilling to wake up, and just wants to stay a little longer in such a beautiful dream.
But she woke up anyway.
After waking up, Yun Ye turned over and sat up, and was just in a daze for about ten minutes, then took a deep breath, her eyes gradually returned to normal, even brighter than usual.
She must have enough courage.
She must show more energy than usual.
No matter how tired, wronged, or sad, she must put on a smiling face and cheer up again. Because she is the special envoy to visit Yuxi City this time, because this is the only chance to save her own fate, no matter how slim the hope is.
