Chapter 569

When the three old women returned to the village, they separated and went home separately, but the old woman returned to her home with the girl picked up on the road.

Of course, when they were parting, the two mothers-in-law also persuaded her. Originally, she didn't have enough food to eat. Now that she has one more mouth, how will she live the rest of her life.

But Granny Wang couldn't bear to leave the girl outside alone, so she refused their kind reminder.

Grandma Wang's house is not big, only two rooms, and she cooks in the yard on weekdays. Naturally, there is no wall around the yard, but it is just surrounded by that fence, and it may have been for a long time. Because of this, the fence wall is also crumbling at this moment.

And the house looked even more dilapidated, the broken windows were only covered up with dry thatch, and the light in the house became very dim because of this.

The furniture in the house was even more crude, just a bed, a table, and two chairs, and there were a few pots and pots on the table, but they were also dilapidated.

After they came in, Granny Wang said to the girl: "This is the situation at home now, you can live here as long as you can. It just so happens that my wife and I are alone, so just accompany me as a companion."

The girl stared blankly at her mother-in-law for a long time before she nodded.

"You don't know your name, and I don't know what to call you, so I'll call you a girl."

The girl frowned slightly, as if she wanted to remember her name very much, but her whole head was full of chaos and she couldn't remember it at all.

Seeing her expression, the mother-in-law thought she didn't like to call her that, so she said, "What's the matter? Don't you want me to call you that?"

The girl worked hard for a long time, but finally gave up and said, "No, you can just call me that."

When the mother-in-law saw that she agreed, a smile appeared on her face, and then she glanced at the dust on her face, and said, "Look at your dirty face, I'll get you a basin of water to wash it off."

After saying this, the mother-in-law went straight out, and the girl took a look at her, and followed her into the courtyard.

by the well.

The mother-in-law pulled the rope and slowly lowered the bucket. After hearing the sound of the bucket being filled, she lifted it up vigorously.

It's just that she is old, and her body is trembling a little.

Seeing this, the girl hurried over and took the rope, and said, "I'll do it."

The mother-in-law first smiled, and then her eyes suddenly fell on her hands.

I saw that the girl's hands were very delicate, white and slender, just like the hands of the lady from the rich family.

But she didn't think too much, and asked, "How about girl, Shen?"

The girl shook her head, and quickly brought up the bucket.

The mother-in-law brought a water basin from the side, then went to find a dry towel and handed it to the girl, saying: "Hurry up and wash it, I will find you some clothes that my daughter-in-law used to wear, you can change it first, I'll wash your clothes for you."

The girl took the towel, nodded and said, "Thank you."

From entering the yard to now, although it was only a moment, Granny Wang suddenly felt that this girl was very suitable for her, and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

She stood by, smiling and watching the girl wash up.

The girl's movements were also quick, she patted her face with water a few times, and then wiped it off with a towel.

Just after she wiped it clean, the mother-in-law glanced at her, but her expression changed drastically.

At the beginning, the girl's face was covered with spots and dust, she didn't think there was anything, but she didn't expect that after washing with clean water, not only the dust on her face was washed away, but also those spots were gone.

And at this moment, what caught her eyes was an unusually beautiful girl.

A pair of curved pretty eyebrows are like distant mountains, and the pair of eyes below them are like the stars at night, as if shining brightly. The tall Qiong nose, pale pink lips, coupled with the pale skin, Simply beautiful.

Just after washing her face, the drops of water also wet the hair on her forehead. Although it stuck together, it added a strange beauty to her.

Seeing her mother-in-law looking at her in a daze, the girl immediately asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you?"

The mother-in-law reacted at that time, turned her head and looked outside, and saw that there was no one around, so she hurriedly dragged the girl back into the house.

The mother-in-law may not know the term "crime of pregnant Bi", but she definitely understands the reason for it.

Jingzhou is in such a mess right now, because of the disaster victims everywhere, the yamen is basically paralyzed, and at this time, the ugliness of human nature is infinitely magnified.

The girl is so beautiful, if those people with evil intentions see it, what should I do?

Thinking of this, the mother-in-law said anxiously: "Girl, listen to me, you should not wash your face in the future, the dirtier the face, the better."

The girl asked in surprise, "Why?"

The mother-in-law patiently explained it to her, and the girl suddenly understood.

Although she didn't feel any danger in her heart, seeing her mother-in-law's eagerness, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Sanhe Town.

Chu Mansion.

Ever since Wen Ruyan showed his skills in the accounting room that day, the next few days went pretty well.

The old gentleman in the cashier didn't dare to target him anymore.

And he stayed in the counting room during the day to settle the accounts. Originally, when it was time to eat, Chu Yuan sent someone to call him, but he really didn't want to eat at the same table with Mrs. Chu, so he politely refused, but let The servants sent it directly to the accounting room.

In his opinion, it's better not to see Mrs. Chu, that woman is really mean, and Wen Ruyan doesn't want to be squeezed by her just because she is idle.

As for Chu Yue, after Wen Ruyan taught her how to use those Arabic numerals, she studied happily for several days, and finally learned it.

Of course, Wen Ruyan also taught her a lot of other things during her research.

And because of this, Wen Ruyan's next meal was delivered by herself. At first she delivered it and went back to the hall to eat, but later she felt troublesome, so she brought it over and stayed directly with Wen Ruyan in the account room. have eaten.

It was also because of this that Mrs. Chu didn't want to see Wen Ruyan even more, but Wen Ruyan had been avoiding her on weekdays, and there was nowhere to vent the anger in her chest.

She couldn't keep going to the accountant's room to find Wen Ruyan's troubles, so if it spread like that, she would think that the mistress of the Chu family was a bitter and mean person.

this day.

Chu Yue accompanied Wen Ruyan to eat in the counting room, and the two of them discussed while eating.

"There are formulas for the multiplication you mentioned?"

Wen Ruyan smiled lightly while holding the rice bowl, "Of course there are."

"Then teach me." Chu Yue looked at Wen Ruyan with little stars in her eyes and asked eagerly.

To be honest, Wen Ruyan really liked Chu Yue's character. She was kind-hearted and lively. She never felt that she was superior to others, and she was very polite to everyone.

Sometimes Wen Ruyan would even think, how could such a mean person like Mrs. Chu give birth to such a daughter?

"Hey, I'm talking to you." Seeing that he ignored her, Chu Yue immediately tapped the back of his hand with her chopsticks.

Wen Ruyan joked: "The disciples of the church starved to death, Master, I have taught you everything, so you must not take my job in the future!"
