Chapter 172

Shen time.

It was a sunny day and it was raining lightly. The sound of the rain was pattering, and a small wind blew from time to time, which brought a refreshing coolness to the scorching heat.

The ox cart was parked in front of the house, Mu Li gave Meng Shi a bag of all the dry goods, but Meng Shi resolutely refused, so she only took a bag of walnuts, and Mu Li stuffed her with a bag of sugar Fried chestnuts.

Then he settled her wages for today.

Meng Shi looked at the one hundred Wen in his hand, quickly pushed it back, and said in surprise: "I only worked for half a day today, and you can give me fifty Wen."

Mu Li smiled and said, "Since you performed well today and worked hard, the remaining fifty coins are your reward."

"If you perform well in the future, there will be higher rewards."

Meng Shi couldn't believe what he heard, and he couldn't believe what he saw.

In a trance, she caught a glimpse of the ingredients on the ox cart, and said, "I still have to prepare something to sell tomorrow, right?"

"Leave the rest to me."

As she said that, she took the initiative to carry all the ingredients from the ox cart to the kitchen.

Mu Li originally planned that it would be too much for Meng Shi to do this for the first time, and she also wanted to let her go back to rest for half a day, and start working officially from tomorrow, but now that she is in good spirits, she agreed.

The bumpy road made her back ache, Wei Yan supported her back with one hand, and asked, "A Li, I worked very hard today, do you have my wages?"

Mu Li smiled and took out a hundred silver coins: "This is yours."

Wei Yan opened her eyes wide, looking at the silver in her palm in disbelief.

"Why? Too little?" Mu Li asked with a smile seeing her silly look.

Wei Yan said without hesitation, "Sure."

She had never seen such a small amount of silver since she was a child.

Then she raised her bright eyes, revealing the joy from the bottom of her heart: "A Li, this is the first money I earned with my hands."

"I'm so happy."

"Before when I went out, the servant girl was responsible for getting the money. This is the first time I get the money by myself."

"Sure enough, it feels different."

Wei Yan's heart was as sweet as eating honey, and she was very happy.

Although she is more than three years older than Mu Li, but because she was pampered and grew up, her mind is not as mature as Mu Li who had to work hard for life since she was a child.

Still childish most of the time.

The rain from the sky is getting heavier and heavier.

Mu Li hurriedly led the cow to the cowshed.

Wei Yan followed behind her like a follower, laughing foolishly at the one hundred Wen silver, and kept showing off to Mu Li.

Mu Li couldn't laugh or cry.

Then he ran to the main room to show off to Mrs. Lin.

He ran to the kitchen to show off to Meng Shi.

Not to be outdone, Mrs. Meng took out her one hundred Wen silver to show off to Wei Yan.

The two of them showed off to each other in the kitchen because of the one hundred Wen silver.

It makes people laugh and cry.

Mu Li moved all the dry goods she bought to the main room.

Meng Shi has already started cleaning the pig's large intestine in the kitchen.

Wei Yan was so frightened that she hurriedly hid in the house.

"Aunt Meng, take a break, I'll get this thing done later."

Mu Li stood at the door of the stove and said to Meng Shi who was washing pig intestines.

Meng said cheerfully: "It's not a problem, washing these things is not tiring. Besides, after washing these things, they have to be steamed in a pot. If we don't do it now, we may be too busy again."

Mu Li squatted in front of her, looking at Meng Shi: "Aunt Meng, you have changed a lot recently, it seems like a completely different person."

This is true, Mu Li never thought that one day she and the Meng family could live in harmony like they are now.

Meng said: "In the past, I was too stupid. I always thought that my mother's family was my real family. I did a lot of stupid things and offended many villagers. Now, except for you, no one in the village thinks I am pleasing to the eye. , They were all watching me making jokes, laughing that I was kicked out of the house by my natal family, laughing that I deserved it.”

"In the past, I was stupid, my eyesight was stupid, and I didn't see the true face of my natal family, so I blindly treated my natal family well, and gave all the hard-earned money of Dahai to my natal family, but they didn't think well of me at all, and even complained Blame me, my mother and sister-in-law even poured dirty water on me, saying that I killed my brother."

"My mother and sister-in-law also threatened me that if they don't pay them compensation, they will arrest me and go to the government."

"In order to force Dahai to take money, they hung me from a tree in the yard. It rained heavily that night, but my mother didn't let me down, and forced me to soak in the rain all night outside."

Meng shi sighed heavily, looked up at Muli.

"The last time Doctor Liu came to see me, it was because of the heavy rain."

"My hard work for so many years has really fed the dogs."

At the end, Meng choked up.

Mu Li didn't know how to comfort her.

Advise her to forget the past, be generous, and stop fussing over her family?

This is unrealistic, and it is also a secondary injury to Mengshi.

Because the wounds on the soul are not as easy to heal as the wounds on the body.

Some people take a lifetime to heal themselves.

Language becomes feeble at this time.

Mu Li patted her shoulder lightly, as if giving her invisible strength in this way.

It was still raining outside.

The vegetables in the vegetable garden became crystal clear after being infiltrated by the rain, and the jujube trees in the yard also bore a lot of dates.

There are drops of water hanging on all of them.

Green with mottled rust.

"Ali, come here."

In the main room, Mrs. Lin is calling her.

Meng Shi picked up her mood and urged her with a smile: "Your mother is calling you, hurry up."

Mu Li stood up with her legs propped up: "If you are tired, take a rest."

Meng Shi responded with a smile and urged her to leave quickly.

main room.

Lin's mysteriously waved at her.

"Come here, mother has something nice to give you."

Mu Li laughed and stepped forward, took Lin's arm, and said, "Mother, do you want to give me the family heirloom you brought from your mother's house?"

Lin nodded her nose, with a smile and pampering that couldn't be hidden between her brows and eyes.

"Nonsense again, since when did mother have a family heirloom?"

Mu Li laughed.

The furry head rubbed against Lin's arm.

Cute and cute.

Lin patted the back of Mu Li's hand, raised her chin, and signaled her to look at the table.

"Go and see."

Seeing her mysteriously, Mu Li couldn't help but wonder what it was.

When she saw what was on the tray, she was surprised in her heart.

Lin stepped forward with a smile: "Didn't Ah Xuan lose your skirt last time? Although you didn't say anything, mother knows that you like that skirt very much. If the skirt is gone, you will definitely be sad of."

Mu Li rubbed his nose in embarrassment: "No, it's not convenient to work in a skirt."

Lin smiled, not exposing her daughter's arrogance.

"So, mother made a set just for me?"

Mu Li picked up the moon-white narrow double-breasted gown from above, and went to get the pale-blue Roman skirt with green leaves and lotus flowers.

Happy gestures on the body.

Lin stepped forward with a smile, looked at her very happy daughter, and said: "I made this before, and I just finished it today. Your previous gauze skirt is gone, and now you can use this horse-faced skirt instead. Hurry up." Go in and try to see if it looks good."

"If something is inappropriate, mother will change it."

Mu Li excitedly said: "Mother wait for me for a while."

As he said that, he rushed into the rain with his jacket and skirt, and returned to his room.
