Houmen's concubine

Chapter 68
The mother and son of the Li family are usually frugal, and they are reluctant to throw away the torn clothes. They sew and mend them and wear them for a few years.

When Aunt Li saw Wang Tonger take over the needlework in her hands, she went to the well to wash her son's changed clothes, looked at Wang Tonger with a smile, and said, "When will my Dalang marry a daughter-in-law like you? You don't have to worry about anything."

Wang Tong'er smiled slightly and said, "Brother Li is kind-hearted and willing to endure hardships. He will definitely find a good wife."

Aunt Li was so happy that all the creases on her face were full of smiles, "Then let me borrow your good words from you."

While talking, Wang Tong'er showed the sewed clothes to Aunt Li, she touched them, and praised again, which made Wang Tong'er's face turn red.

It's also because Wang Tong'er is sorry, her half-baked needlework skills are thanks to Zhaodi who taught her without incident. Besides, who would want to mend clothes for modern young people?
Clothes will be thrown away without hourly wages, and it is even more impossible to wear old and worn-out clothes!

In fact, Wang Tong'er was already smart, and she was one step ahead of others in learning everything.So she's still really good at needlework, with tight stitches.No wonder Aunt Li praised her.

Aunt Li looked at Wang Tonger's pair of skillful mend clothes, and sighed: "When my daughter was not married, she sewed new clothes and mended clothes at home."

"Oh? Auntie, do you still have a daughter?" Wang Tong'er thought they were the only ones who depended on each other.

"Well, my daughter is married in a town not far from the mountain. My son-in-law is filial. He brings the rice and noodles at home to the mountain. At this moment, my Dalang is sending down the two live rabbits I caught yesterday. , to raise and play for his little niece."

Aunt Li was full of joy when talking about her daughter and son-in-law, and she was also eloquent.

After the clothes were sewed, Wang Tong'er helped with what she could, and as night fell, smoke rose from the village.

In the tranquility and peace, the yellow dog lying listlessly by the courtyard gate suddenly barked, "Wow!"

Immediately there was a knock on the door of Li's courtyard, Aunt Li hurriedly put down her work and ran to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Wang Tong'er saw Huang Yu and Xiao Mo leading a group of guards standing outside the courtyard. When they saw Wang Tong'er in the courtyard, they immediately asked, "Miss Tong'er, where is your son?"

"Boss Huang, brother Mo! The eldest son is in the house!" Wang Tong'er bit her mouth when she saw that they had found them, and a stone in her heart fell to the ground.

Unexpectedly, in the ancient times when there was no monitoring, they could find them in a short time.

Wang Tong'er had to admire the wisdom of the ancients.

"Oh, my mother!" Aunt Li, a peasant woman who had never seen such a battle before, was terrified and swayed. Wang Tong'er helped her up and explained to her: "It's okay, aunt, they are here. Take us back."

"Huang Yu, Xiao Mo come in, and the others go out." Xie Yuheng changed into his own robe, heard the movement from the room, walked out, and ordered solemnly.

As soon as the guards heard the order from the son of the world, they all retreated, so they were not as aggressive as before.

Xie Yuheng then brought Huang Yu and Xiao Mo into the house, they probably had something to say.

As soon as the two left, Aunt Li patted her chest and said in fear: "Girl, how old is your elder brother? This battle has scared the old lady a lot."

Wang Tong'er squeezed out a gentle smile, and comforted him: "He is the son of the Hou family, don't be afraid, you old man, you and Brother Li saved us, and you are our saviors."

Aunt Li has seen the biggest official, but she is no more than Li Zheng, the village head. What kind of son of the Marquis Mansion, dare not even think about how big an official this is?

It's just that he didn't expect that the one his own son rescued was the prince of the Hou family.

Aunt Li suddenly remembered, and said in amazement: "Oh, that girl, aren't you the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion?"

Wang Tong'er blushed, and hurriedly explained to her: "Ma'am, I'm just a girl next to the son, not the eldest lady of the Hou Mansion. The situation was special yesterday, and I hope you will forgive me."

"It's okay, the girl is a blessed person at first glance." Aunt Li waved her hand hurriedly and said without hesitation.

Aunt Li had heard people say before that the maidservants of everyone in the world are as beautiful as young ladies, and now seeing the unbelievably beautiful little girl in front of her, the rumors are true!

"Mother, mother!"

"What are you doing? Hurry up and get aside!"

At this time, there were anxious shouts from the elder brother of the Li family and reprimands from the guards outside the courtyard.

Wang Tong'er walked to the door quickly, and said to the guards: "Don't stop him, he is the master of this house."

Brother Li just came back from his sister at the foot of the mountain, and he still had a small bag of rice and a jar of soybean oil in his hand.

"Da Lang is back home!" Aunt Li hurriedly took the oil jar from her son, and whispered to him, "These people are here to pick up the injured man, some kind of official."

Brother Li has long known that this pair of brothers and sisters are not waiting for others, they must be young masters and young ladies of either rich or noble families.

Hearing what my mother said, I felt relieved and took the things in my hand to the kitchen.

After a while, Xie Yuheng came out of the room. He walked up to the mother and son of the Li family and said politely: "Thank you auntie and brother Li for saving our brothers and sisters. Now there is still something at home, and we need to rush home overnight. This kindness, I hope you two will accept it." After finishing speaking, he handed Brother Li a purse, which was heavy, and it was not a small sum.

Brother Li, mother and son hurriedly shied away, and Wang Tong'er went over to persuade her a few words, until the mother and son accepted it.

Before leaving, Wang Tong'er's eyes were a little wet, she forced out a smile, and said softly: "Mother, I'm leaving now, you always pay attention to your body, if there is a chance in the future, I will come to see you."

Wang Tong'er is actually a very affectionate person, the kind that others treat her very well, and she will remember it for a lifetime.

Although she said this, she knew very well in her heart, what future would there be?
Aunt Li used to be a little afraid of Xie Yuheng's identity, but when she heard this, her heart softened immediately, and she hurriedly said "Hey": "You have time to come and see aunt, and aunt will make old yeast cakes for you."

"Well, good." Wang Tong'er nodded in agreement with red eyes.

Xiao Mo came over and gently reminded: "Miss Tong'er, it's time to go."

Wang Tong'er waved to the reluctant Aunt Li, followed Xiao Mo out of the yard, and Huang Yu also went to the backyard to lead the horse out.

Wang Tong'er walked outside the courtyard gate, and seeing Xie Yuheng's cold brows and eyes looked very gentle at this moment, he stretched out his hand to her without saying anything.

Xie Yuheng didn't expect that the little girl was quite affectionate, and she was reluctant to part with her in just these two days.
