Chapter 265
Bie Ye refused, "Thank you, Uncle Chen, for your kindness, but we're going to the village head's house for dinner later, and we can just find medicinal wine to wipe at their house, and we have to rush back to the town after dinner, so it's inconvenient to delay."
-
When they arrived at Taohua Village, Chen Lin was not in a hurry to separate from Bie Ye and Gu Rao, but went with them to the village chief's house and told them about Gu Rao's sprained foot.
When Zhen Youqian heard it, he immediately paid attention to it.
"When you walk on rainy days, you should be more careful. It's better not to wear cloth shoes, but straw sandals. Sit down quickly, and I'll get the medicinal wine!"
"Rub it well with medicinal wine, otherwise it will definitely swell up at night!"
"Bie Ye, your daughter-in-law has a sprained ankle and it's inconvenient to walk. Don't go back tonight, just rest at my house. I'll ask Mrs. Yu to make a room for you."
Gu Rao quickly waved his hand.
"It's just a small injury. It doesn't hurt now. I can walk by myself. Besides, we don't plan to walk by ourselves. We will just rent a bullock cart and go back later."
Bie Ye also said, "Living outside is not as comfortable as at home. We are used to sleeping in our own home, and we are not used to sleeping outside. The village chief will not keep us."
Zhen had money and had to give up.
"Then let's eat first. The meal is ready early. If you finish eating early, you can go back early. If you delay it, it will be dark, and it is not easy to go back if you have an ox cart."
In order to thank Gu Rao and Bie Ye for leaving their nephew to work in the restaurant, the lingering fragrance of the meal worked hard and made six dishes and one soup, which were braised eggplant, fried pork, potato shreds, steamed pork, steamed fish, and stir-fried Green Bean and Sauerkraut Soup.
"Eat more, I'll do it if it's not enough."
"I'll pour you some wine."
Gu Rao hurriedly said, "Aunt Yu, sit down and eat too. We can pick up what we want to eat, and pour it ourselves if we want to drink."
Yu Xiang wiped her hands on the apron.
"Then you eat first, I'll just go to the back to eat, if you need anything, call me, I can hear your voices from behind."
After saying that, he left.
Gu Rao, "..."
Very good, she is the only woman at a large table!
How did she forget this one?
In this era, the status of women is very low. As long as there are guests at home, women are not allowed to eat at the table, which is the rule kept by the ancestors.
The person who made this rule must be a selfish man!
I knew I wouldn't stay for dinner.
She was the only woman at the whole table, she really didn't want to have such an embarrassing situation again!
Fortunately, Yu Xiang's cooking skills are not bad, Gu Rao forgets her embarrassment while eating, and Bie Ye has never ignored her, and has been bringing her food, she eats with great joy.
The meal was very filling.
-
After dinner, it was getting late, Zhen Youqian took the initiative to help them find the man who ran the ox cart in the village, and wanted him to send Biye and Gu Rao back to town.
After the bullock cart master heard it, he refused without even thinking about it.
"It's getting dark now, and it's still raining outside. Maybe it's getting dark as soon as I arrive in town. Do I have to come back in the dark?"
"Too dangerous."
"The road is too slippery on rainy days. I usually only run a few times in the morning and not in the afternoon. Let them find someone else."
Zhen Youqian asked his son to go to the neighboring village to ask, and all the answers he got were refusal.
Gu Rao was a little anxious.
"What now?"
"You can't go back, can you?"
Eating a meal outside made her uncomfortable enough. If she had to rest at someone else's house for a day, just thinking about it would make her uncomfortable.
Bie Ye held Gu Rao's hand, and the palm under the sleeve wrapped it in his own.
"do not worry."
"I know how to drive an ox cart. I'll ask someone to borrow an ox cart. We'll drive it back by ourselves. We'll just have someone bring the ox cart back tomorrow."
Gu Rao hesitated.
"You really do?"
You can't force yourself so much to prevent her from being unhappy, right?
Bie Ye nodded.
"You do not trust me?"
Gu Rao let go of the doubts in her heart.
"I believe you."
"Then let's borrow an ox cart now."
Zhen Youqian stopped him and said, "Why don't you stay and rest, the reason why those ox cart masters don't want to run the car too late is because they are afraid that the road will be slippery in the dark and they won't be able to see the road. There was no one to help me on the road at night.”
"Our empty house is definitely enough, and we won't let you sleep together with other people."
"If you don't want to sleep in our house, we can also arrange for you to sleep in other villagers' houses."
Bie Ye explained, "Village Chief, you misunderstood. It's not that you don't want to stay at your house, but that the lady is not feeling well today. After we return to the town, we still have to see the doctor. We can't delay."
Zhen Youqian felt a little guilty when he heard the words.
"Shouldn't I keep you for dinner? If you go back after finishing your work, there should be still time. Now you can only find someone to borrow an ox cart."
"You wait here. The ox cart master takes cattle very seriously. If you go to borrow them, you may not be able to receive them. As the village head, he still wants to give me the face."
Bie Ye nodded.
"Thank you, village chief."
Zhen Youqian waved his hand.
"Don't be polite to me. I was the one who caused trouble for you. I thought I hadn't seen you for a long time and wanted to get together with you, but I didn't choose the right date."
After speaking, he put on his coir raincoat and bamboo hat and walked to the house of the bullock cart master.
Soon.
Zhen Youqian came back with an ox cart.
With a smile on his face.
"I borrowed the ox cart for you. You can drive the ox cart back by yourself. You don't have to send it back tomorrow. He promised to go to the town early tomorrow and take a group of people back to the village."
Bie Ye didn't ask any further questions, and took out two hundred Wen from the purse, and put it on the table when Zhen Youqian was not paying attention.
Then he drove away with his wife.
Zhen Youqian sent him to the entrance of the village, and when he got home, he found the money on the table. Mrs. Yu had already seen it, and only told him about it after he came back.
"Is this money given by Bie Ye?"
Zhen Youqian nodded.
"It must be him, otherwise who would give the money?"
"Hey."
"This child is still out of touch with us."
Mrs. Yu likes money very much. As the wife of the village chief, she has received bribes from many people before, but this is the only time she was unhappy after receiving money.
"If he really regarded us as his own, he wouldn't even give us money for a favor. Looking at the current situation, I'm afraid he wants to distance himself from us."
He pouted.
"Once a person is well-off, he will definitely dislike his poor relatives. What's more, we can't even count as poor relatives. We have no blood relationship with him. I'm afraid we won't be able to fight in the future!"
What a pity.
Originally, it was a happy thing to have a promising person in the village, but although this person came out of the village, because he had no blood relationship with the people in the village, it seemed that he was not so closely connected with the village. Not happy.
Zhen Youqian glared at her.
"What are you thinking?"
"Bie Ye is not such a person. If he really treated us as outsiders, he wouldn't give such a good job to your nephew."
"Your nephew is working in a restaurant now, and the monthly salary is real. It also includes food and lodging. The food is very good. Your nephew is gaining weight just now."
"Sometimes he sells the leftovers, and Bie Ye allows him to pack them and take them home for his family to eat. By the way, the family's food has occasionally improved."
"Is it not good for him?"

Bie Ye refused, "Thank you, Uncle Chen, for your kindness, but we're going to the village head's house for dinner later, and we can just find medicinal wine to wipe at their house, and we have to rush back to the town after dinner, so it's inconvenient to delay."
