Started to get rich after exile

Chapter 10 Cold War
Ming Lanying felt a little dizzy for a moment. If all this was planned by them, then what is she doing now?
Ye Juelu grabbed Song Junyi's excited hand and pulled him out. After talking for a long time in the grove next to the yard, he sent Song Junyi away peacefully.

When Ye Juelu came back, he saw Ming Lanying with her arms crossed, looking at him with a sneer.

"It turns out that you have all calculated, and your purpose is to return to Beijing? As for Sun Xu and Wu Feng, are you planning to use the scheme? You and Song Shanshan came to cooperate with each other, and then retreated completely? Song Shanshan is really smart, not only I can protect myself, help you, and protect you, and you are not only fine with Ning’er, but also meritorious.” Ming Lanying looked at him with complicated eyes, seeming sad and disappointed, “The one who died last It might just be me."

The current Ming Lanying is not brainless. At this point, even a blind man can guess half right. Ye Juelu said lightly, "No, I have already arranged it, and I can't leave now, you Don't worry any more."

"Arrangement? Your arrangement is to keep Ning'er and I separated, and send Ning'er to that bitch Song Shanshan!" Ming Lanying took a deep breath and forced back the tears in her eyes, "Now your The plan was disrupted by an uninformed person like me, do you regret not killing me?"

"No." Ye Juelu frowned, as if dissatisfied with Ming Lanying's words, but what she said was in line with the actual results at the beginning, which made him feel a little irritable, "It's none of your business, Do not blame you."

"Ha!" Ming Lanying laughed angrily, and didn't want to talk nonsense, she rummaged through the box and packed the miscellaneous little things.

Ye Juelu's heart tightened, "What do you want to do?"

"I'll take Ning'er away and leave this place for you. I feel unlucky to see you now."

Ming Lanying covered Ning'er with the quilt. She has been preparing for the move in the past two days. Although the furniture has not been delivered to the new house, it can be done for a few days. Fortunately, it was all sorted out before the incident happened. up.Simply pack up the remaining luggage and pile it up at the door, and take Ning'er to move there directly at dawn the next day.

Ye Juelu clenched his fists, and after a while he said slowly: "Tomorrow, we will go to the Yamen to register, otherwise it will be inconvenient for your future life, and you can keep the book of Li, it will be useful anytime."

"can."

Today she is going all out to keep Ye Jue Lv alive, as long as her life is still alive, nothing else matters.When Ye Juelu was exiled, she was packaged and sent here with a word from the emperor. Even if she didn't personally say the marriage, and there was no marriage contract signed by both parents and the government, she said it in front of so many people today. , it's really inappropriate not to deal with the identity as soon as possible.

The next day, Ye Juelu called Lizheng early in the morning, and gave him a lenient fee. Lizheng didn't make things difficult. After all, it was the emperor's decision. It was just a matter of proof. I wrote two marriage contracts and took them to the yamen for a seal, and the marriage contract became effective.

Ming Lanying put the marriage contract and the letter of departure together with the money in the earthen pot, and handed the earthen pot to Ning'er to watch.Ye Juelu just watched her moving things one after another like an ant moving a house. The things in the dilapidated house gradually became less and less, like quicksand slipping through his fingers. The more you lose.

"Man, when it's time to lose your face, you should admit your mistakes. My old man has experienced more salt than you."

Ye Juelu was sitting in the dilapidated courtyard of Zhao Taiyi's house, a small table, a bowl of wine in front of each of them, a plate of fried peanuts in the middle, and a stool in winter and summer to sit under the eaves of the unrenovated dilapidated house , looking at the gorgeous sunset in the sky, pricking up your ears to listen to the conversation between the two in the yard.

Ye Juelu took a sip of wine sullenly, he had arranged everything and Ming Lanying would be fine, but she didn't seem to believe it, and was even disappointed in him.Ming Lanying earned the money herself, and she also bought the house, but she pretended to be another man in her heart, and she was just using him to save her life. She wanted to move away and draw a line with him, what could he do?
Doctor Zhao ate a peanut, which was delicious and crispy, and he squinted his eyes in satisfaction, "If it was her before, I would agree with you if you did this, but it is different now. Even an outsider like this old man can see that she There's been a sea change, and you should feel it."

Of course Ye Juelu knew it, but no matter whether it was in the past or now, one thing has not changed, she doesn't want to live with him, he is just a life-saving tool for her.

"I'll keep pouring wine for you." Ye Juelu held up the wine jar and filled the two's wine bowls.

"You are stupid, there is no medicine to cure you." Imperial Physician Zhao shook his head helplessly, "It's different now, this time, you really did something wrong, and you didn't think clearly about her."

"Well, don't blame her."

"You still want to blame her?!" Imperial physician Zhao stared, raised his hand and slapped him on the head, "She doesn't know, but she is also living for Ning'er, for you, for herself, and for you all. , why do you still want to blame her? So your subordinates are all stunned young men like you, and they deserve to have no daughter-in-law!"

Ye Juelu took it silently, "Yes."

It is true that both Sun Xu and Wu Feng have taken refuge in the Ming family, but one of them is an undercover agent. Ye Juelu decided to risk himself in order to gain the trust of that person. He is confident in escaping to the capital. something will happen.Unexpectedly, after being found out by Song Shanshan, she had to go back to Beijing to help him deal with it, but now things have turned out like this.

Imperial Physician Zhao sighed and twirled his beard, "She was also forced to do something helpless this time, but it worked. Everyone knew that you wanted to go back, but if you were stopped by her, the Ming family would not think too much about it, but It's hard to say whether he will trouble her or not."

What Ye Juelu thought was that someone would protect her, so he didn't need to worry, "You will be her neighbor when you grow old, please help me take care of Gu Ning'er."

Doctor Zhao has agreed to be Ming Lanying's neighbor, of course, but he still hopes that the two will get back together.

Imperial Physician Zhao also instructed Dongxia, "You and Mrs. Ming had a good time, please help persuade me."

"I can't do anything about this." Dongxia twisted her body, full of resistance, "You and Brother Ye plan on you, but you don't care about Mrs. Ming. I wouldn't be willing to talk to you about this matter, it's too much."

She didn't know beforehand, but what would Ming Lanying think of her?Dong Xia was sullen and sullen, "I'm ashamed to see her."

Imperial Physician Zhao threw the pot away quickly, staring and said, "It's all Ye Juelu's fault, I don't agree with it."

As soon as the words fell, Ming Lanying's brisk voice sounded outside the yard, "Dongxia, can you help me build a duck nest tomorrow morning? I'll make sweet bean curd for you!"

Dongxia poked her head out immediately and replied, "Okay!"

Imperial Physician Zhao: "This girl just said that she has no face to see her."

Dongxia snorted, "Grandfather, you can have plain porridge tomorrow, and I'll go to my sister-in-law's for dinner."

Imperial Physician Zhao couldn't hold back, picked up a peanut and threw it at Ye Juelu who was facing him, "It's all your fault, I'm hurting this old man."

Ye Juelu: "..."

Ming Lanying's new house is a few steps away. The couple have been busy for a long time and finally finished cleaning the new house. She originally wanted to pick a good day and auspicious day to move. Who would have thought that accidents would always come before the plan, so she had to move ahead of time.

They brought the little chick and the little lamb over, and called a little sparrow and two little squirrels to come over and have fun together. Originally, they wanted to ask Dongxia to come together, but Ye Juelu was in her yard, so she didn't want to come over and get involved. unlucky.

The yard is even bigger than before. There are two big rooms, one is connected to the big kitchen, and the other is connected to the bathroom. The bathroom was just built today. It is spacious and bright. There are also two large bathtubs, which are also Minglan. Arranged by Oriole.

Ning'er liked this new home very much. After cleaning up, she happily ran around the yard with the two little squirrels, feeding the chicks for a while, and stroking the lamb for a while. Suddenly asked her why she separated from her father.

When Ming Lanying said to Ning'er last night, "Your father doesn't want us anymore, he wants to find another woman by himself", Ning'er was stunned for a while, and when she realized it, she shed tears silently.Ming Lanying's heart ached so much, she knew that although the child was young, she knew everything, so she said such things to him cruelly, she just hoped that Ning'er would choose to be with her.

Sure enough, Ning'er did not disappoint her, she held Ming Lanying's hand and refused to let go while weeping.That's why Ming Lanying asked him to cooperate, telling him that as long as he cooperated and cried together, his father would not leave.

Ning'er trusted her very much, and she managed to keep Ye Juelu, but she didn't tell Ning'er that they would separate now.

It wasn't until late at night that Ning'er finally realized something was wrong. After Ming Lanying finished packing the dishes, she saw Ning'er moved a small bench and sat in the yard, holding her chin and looking at the dark outside, squatting beside her. with two little squirrels.

"Ning'er, it's time to wash up and go to bed."

Ning'er glanced back at her, then turned back and continued to sit there, Ming Lanying walked over helplessly, and patted his little head.

"Ning'er, it's time to wash up and go to bed. Mother has burned a warm kang."

Ning'er shook her head, looking outside eagerly, insisting on waiting for Ye Juelu to come home, Ming Lanying sighed.

"Ning'er, your father has to watch over our old house, otherwise our old house will be snatched away by others. If Ning'er misses father, mother will ask sister Dongxia to take you to find father during the day, okay?"

Frustrated, Ning'er moved the stool and went back to the house. He likes the new home. It has a big bed that can be kept warm, and his mother has laid a thick quilt. He wants to sleep between his parents.

But Dad seemed to be making Mother angry. Although Dad didn't leave and Mother didn't throw things and curse, he felt that Mother was angry.

Ning'er's well-behaved appearance made Ming Lanying feel distressed, but she had to do this, she didn't want Ning'er to have an unreliable and irresponsible father.Ye Juelu's responsibilities and responsibilities are too heavy, so heavy that he can throw himself out at any time. She admires this kind of person, but she will let him go free and live in peace.

Ning'er washed up obediently and put on her pajamas, covered her little quilt and fell asleep with tears in her eyes, Ming Lanying came back from washing up after exercising, and saw a tear in the corner of his eye, and sighed helplessly.

Before falling asleep, I heard Ning'er next to me murmur softly, "Father, mother..."

It woke up Ming Lanying, the weak and helpless voice was indeed Ning'er's voice.

Ming Lanying had rare insomnia.

The next day, she still got up early to exercise and cook. Dongxia saw the smoke rising from her place and came over.

"Sister-in-law got up so early!"

"You're here." Ming Lanying smiled, made a bowl of sweet bean curd for Dongxia, and took two meat-stuffed pancakes, "I moved to a new nest, I didn't sleep well last night."

"After two days, you'll get used to it. I'll give you two tranquilizing pills. Take one before going to bed, and you'll sleep well overnight." Dongxia drank a bowl of sweet bean curd contentedly, "Sister-in-law's cooking skills are really good!"

"Okay, eat more if you like, and help me work when you are full."

"Ok!"

After a while, Ning'er also got up, and washed, ate, learned and practiced calligraphy as usual, but Ming Lanying found out that he secretly took away the food, because he not only took two minced meat pancakes, but also tried to secretly take away a large bowl of sweet bean curd .

"Ning'er, why are you stealing food?"

Ning'er pitifully pointed in the direction of the old house outside the yard, Ming Lanying sighed helplessly, and knew how to feel sorry for his father who had no food, what could she do with such an obedient child.

"Okay, okay, take two more sesame seed cakes, the bean curd is not allowed to pass over, so turn around and sprinkle all the way."

Ning'er immediately smiled, took two more sesame cakes, wrapped them in oil paper, and ran out in a jump.

"Go and help me look after Ning'er, don't let him be in danger." Ming Lanying sprinkled a handful of chaff under the grove outside the yard, and the little sparrow flew down from the tree, patted it when it was full of chaff. Wings flew to help her look after the baby.

Dongxia was helping her make the duck nest on the other side, when she heard her voice turned around suspiciously, "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?"

"No, sprinkle some chaff to attract the ducks, and save others."

Dongxia smiled helplessly, Ming Lanying has been busy making new nests for wild ducks these two days, and stuffed more rags to keep out the cold.There is also a grove next to the new house, more than the old house, Ming Lanying is not worried that the wild ducks will not have a place to live.

Dongxia looked at the thick duck nest, and asked suspiciously: "Sister-in-law, will the wild ducks really move here?"

Ming Lanying nodded confidently, "Yes, I'll feed them here, and of course they'll come over."

In fact, she sent a little sparrow to report the news, and asked the wild ducks to move here by themselves in the past few days.

Dongxia looked at the duck's nest on the branch, gestured, and said disappointedly: "I put it too densely, and I can't climb high. If Brother Ye is here, I will definitely be able to climb to a higher branch. As for duck dung..."

Ming Lanying patted her on the back lightly, "Don't worry, those wild ducks are very lazy, you put them just right, I can clean up the duck droppings myself, if it's troublesome, it's okay."

Dongxia felt a little regretful. Although she said she would not interfere in the affairs of the couple, she still hoped that the two could get back together.And Ming Lanying didn't seem to care about it, Dongxia only hoped that Ye Juelv would think about it sooner and come to apologize tactfully.

In the past two days, Ming Lanying has been busy with the wild ducks, and Dongxia also comes to help every day. Ning'er goes to the old house to deliver meals to Ye Juelu every day, and Dr. Zhao has been drinking white porridge with peanuts for two days. Jue Lv wanted to give him two slaps first.

Ming Lanying looked at the completed duck nest in the grove with satisfaction, the wild ducks can all move tonight, and she will have one more thing to do tomorrow morning, clean up the duck droppings.

What Ming Lanying didn't expect was that when she got up in the morning, she only saw that the duck droppings on the ground outside had been cleaned up. She circled around the woods suspiciously, and asked the wild ducks on the tree to trim their feathers.

"Who has cleaned up the floor?"

Wild Duck yawned, "Your husband, he came early in the morning before dawn, and left after cleaning up. Why didn't you live together?"

"You don't live with your partner either."

Wild Duck shook his head, "There was a quarrel."

Ming Lanying smiled, "What a coincidence, I also quarreled."

Wild Duck: "...?"

Ming Lanying didn't expect Ye Juelu to come over secretly to clean up the duck droppings. She is in a complicated mood now, but she is very annoying, so she chooses to forget it temporarily.

Today Ning'er finished her handwriting practice, and happily took a basket of meat buns and vegetable buns to find his father. Ming Lanying had nothing to do for the time being, so she went to Dongxia to help her with the medicinal materials.

Ming Lanying didn't recognize the medicinal materials, but felt that they were all about the same size. Holding the hay in her hand, she asked suspiciously, "Can these medicinal materials be sold for money?"

"Yes, these are worth more than a dozen taels of silver in the capital, but not so much here, at most two or three taels of silver."

Dongxia looked at the good medicinal materials with distress, but there was no way to do it, the frontier was bitterly cold, even those who knew the goods did not have so much money, so the medicinal materials could only be sold at a low price.

Dongxia smiled, "Thanks to my sister-in-law, my grandfather is not as stubborn as before. Before, my grandfather never thought about how to survive. If my sister-in-law hadn't influenced him now, my grandfather would not have let me collect herbs, process them and sell them. "

"Your grandfather was able to change because he didn't give up on you, his precious granddaughter. As long as the person you love the most is still by your side, you won't give up hope easily." It's the medicinal fragrance of medicinal materials. "I'll turn to shopkeeper Li and ask for help. See if there is a reliable pharmacy that can come here periodically to buy your medicinal materials."

"Well! Thank you sister-in-law!"

While he was talking, a small sparrow flew from a distance, and stopped right next to Ming Lan Ying, Dong Xia was taken aback.

"Why isn't this little sparrow afraid of people?"

Ming Lanying reached out and tapped the little sparrow, "It should be close to people."

The little sparrow that flew over was Ma San, and Ma San pecked at her feathers a little speechlessly.

"The old woman is coming to look for you, she has already arrived at the entrance of the village."

Ming Lanying paused, "Dongxia, put away the precious herbs first."

"What's wrong? Is something wrong?" Dongxia subconsciously obeyed her first.

Ming Lanying saw a blue-gray carriage staggering towards this side from a distance through the fence of the yard.

"There are bad guys coming."

Dongxia hurriedly moved the precious medicinal materials such as ganoderma lucidum and ginseng back to the warehouse. The warehouse was the first room to be refurbished.

When Dongxia came out again, there was already an unexpected visitor in the yard, and Ming Lanying's face turned cold.

Dongxia is not blind, this should be the villain Ming Lanying just mentioned, "Miss Ming, who is this?"

Ming Lanying smiled, "Dongxia, this is Nanny Feng, my nanny."

"Oh, hello, Mrs. Feng."

Nanny Feng's face was very ugly, and her attitude towards Dongxia was also not good, "I have something to say to the eldest girl, you go home first, little girl."

Dongxia didn't move, but walked to Ming Lanying's side, and Nanny Feng immediately glared angrily.

"You girl, are you deaf?"

Ming Lanying crossed her arms and looked at her coldly, "Nurse is so majestic, those who don't know think you are the master here!"

Nanny Feng's aggrieved old face flushed, "I have something very important to talk to the eldest girl alone."

Ming Lanying didn't take Nanny Feng home either, fearing that Ning'er would suddenly come back and be seen by Nanny Feng, so she gently pushed Dongxia, "You go back to the house first, I'm fine here."

Dongxia had no choice but to go back to the house and watch secretly. As soon as Dongxia left, Grandma Feng said angrily: "Miss, how can you care about the man's affairs outside! My uncle wants to return to Beijing to be loyal, how can you trust my uncle's hind legs?" Woolen cloth!"

"Huh? You know all this?" Ming Lanying looked at her with a half-smile, "He will leave me alone here when he goes back to be loyal? How can I live? Once he leaves, I can't resist him How can I live here, woman? What shall I eat?"

Nanny Feng was speechless, "Didn't it be agreed before, if you are obedient, the old man will definitely take you back."

Ming Lanying rolled her eyes, "You didn't tell me not to fight with Ye Juelu, nor did you tell me to let Ye Juelu go obediently!"

Nanny Feng almost didn't bring it up, is it her fault now?

"Miss, if you are disobedient again, I will tell the old man!"

"Then hurry up and tell me, if you still want to get news about Ye Juelv from me, it's impossible."

"why?"

"Because I broke up with him!" Ming Lanying raised her eyebrows, still a little proud.
