Started to get rich after exile

Chapter 15 The Unknown Side

It snowed heavily last night, and the snow stopped after washing up in the morning. There was only pure white snow between the sky and the earth, and there was only a thin layer of snow in the yard, but there were two piles of snow in the corner of the yard.

Ming Lanying likes this kind of snowy weather, she feels refreshed, and she is also satisfied with Ye Juelu's diligence.

There were two snowdrifts piled up in the corner, and Ming Lanying had a whim, so she patted them all over with her hands, and made two little snowmen out, took two pieces of small burnt charcoal as pea eyes, and generously took a handful of black beans, Made a big smile.

Ning'er walked around the two big snowmen curiously, and wanted to build one by himself, but the snow was too cold, Ming Lanying refused to let him do it, and turned to call Ye Juelu to cut a small wooden shovel for Ning'er to build a snowman.

Ye Juelu silently took a piece of wood and cut it beside him. Ming Lanying sneaked up behind Ye Juelu, and while Ye Juelu was busy peeling a small wooden shovel for Ninger, she stretched out her palm that was red from the snow, and quickly into his neckline.

Ye Juelu froze, Ming Lanying laughed triumphantly, rolled her ice-like hand on his back twice before pulling it out, "Ye Juelu, are you exciting?"

Ye Juelu finished sharpening the small wooden shovel twice, and let Ning'er play. He turned around and clasped her cold hands precisely, and covered them with a frown, "Don't play in the snow when it's so cold."

Ming Lanying froze for a moment, her fingers were so stiff that she couldn't pull them out for a while, she opened her mouth, Aba Aba was speechless for a while.Ye Juelu's palm was very hot, dry and hot, and it was very comfortable to hold it warmly.

Dongxia came to play with Ming Lanying with her needle and thread. As soon as she entered the yard, she saw the two people holding hands under the gazebo. She turned her head and pretended not to see it. She blushed and went to play with Ning'er, who was building a snowman next to her.

Ning'er was happily building a snowman with a small wooden shovel, and when she saw Dongxia, she happily called out Dongxia's sister, which scared Ming Lanying back to her senses, and quickly pulled her hand out.

"Thank you." Ming Lanying rubbed her hands uncomfortably, "Dongxia is here, don't you want to go to the shop today, go quickly."

Ye Juelu hummed, packed up the sawdust and went to the blacksmith's shop.

It was only when he was walking on the road that he realized what he had just done. It was what he subconsciously thought he should do. Thinking about it now, it seems a little too intimate...

Ming Lanying pretended nothing happened, "Ning'er, I'm in the house to write."

"it is good!"

Dongxia patted her hot little face, trying to cool down the temperature on her face, "Sister-in-law, my grandfather gave you a pair of conditioning medicine, one dose a day, you drink it before going to bed."

"I see, thank your grandfather for me." Ming Lanying took the medicine bag, and took Dongxia's hand into the house to keep warm, "I just baked some sweet potatoes, try it first, I will teach me how to make a cotton hat later, God It's too cold, make a tiger head hat for Ning'er."

"Ok!"

The warm aroma of roasted sweet potatoes wafted through the room, Ming Lanying was really bad at female reds, and Dong Xia was basically teaching her stitch by stitch.Ning'er was writing on the short table, and after writing for a while, she looked up, thinking that her mother looked good no matter what she looked at now.

Dong Xia also found out, and said with a smile: "I couldn't see it before, but now that my sister-in-law has lost weight, I realize that she is so beautiful. No wonder Ning'er is so cute at such a young age."

Ming Lanying smiled proudly. In fact, Ning'er looks seven points like Ye Jue Lv, and three points should be her skin texture and the shallow dimples at the corners of her mouth.

Dongxia looked at Ning'er's obedient writing, and suddenly sighed, "When I was young, I often heard from my grandfather that Big Brother Ye grew up in a rough age. He lost his mother at the age of four, his father at the age of eight, and his family members died. Dead, scattered, no relatives around after the age of 13..."

Ming Lanying was pricked by a needle without paying attention, and she quickly wiped away a drop of blood.

The original body didn't like Ye Jue Lv, let alone cared about his life experience, so she didn't know about these things, but now that she knew, she couldn't help thinking, isn't this fate the only star of the devil? !
If she didn't wear this body, then the original body would strangle her son to death first, and then be discovered by Ye Juelu, who would then be beaten to death by Ye Juelu.In this way, he not only restrains his father and mother, but also his wife and children, and everyone close to him, without any taboos.

"But didn't he follow the emperor when he was still the prince? Why did the emperor..."

Dongxia thought for a while, "It seems that he was with the prince when he was 13 years old."

Ming Lanying clicked her tongue in amazement, "Didn't the prince at that time think he was unlucky?"

"How could it be!" Dongxia said in amazement: "Brother Ye is very powerful. At that time, the prince heard that it was impossible to defend against a spear in the dark, and there were not many cronies..."

Ming Lanying understood. At that time, the prince was walking on thin ice in the East Palace. He only saw Ye Juelu's own ability, not those metaphysical fates, and he had no doubts about employing people. That's why the prince became the current emperor.

Ming Lanying tried her best to find information about the current emperor in the few memories, but it was a pity that the original body was a useless person who couldn't do anything. When she was in the capital, she didn't have a part in several large banquets, so she saw The number of visits to the emperor is very few.

The impression of the emperor is probably only that he has an extraordinary appearance and is young and promising.The emperor's age in his memory was indeed not very old, probably only seven or eight years older than Ye Juelu, Ming Lanying was amazed, as expected some people were destined to be dragons and phoenixes.

Dongxia sighed, "So sometimes grandfather actually wants you to treat brother Ye better, because he has never tasted sweetness, and he doesn't know how to treat others well, and he doesn't know how to love others."

Ming Lanying looked at her warm hands, which were shiny and slender and beautiful. Even though she had done a lot of things after coming here, with the hand fat care given by Dong Xia, there was no trace of hard work.These hands, not long ago, were clasped with another pair of rough big palms, using his temperature to warm her.

Ming Lanying just remembered that Ye Juelu was only 23 years old this year. In her original world, she was still studying on campus at the age of 23, full of innocence and longing for the society she was about to enter.

Here, 13-year-old Ye Juelu grew up in the dirty plot of adults. At 23 years old, he has never tasted what a sweet life is like.

Ming Lanying let out a long sigh, her brain circuit suddenly turned a corner, suddenly there was a question, Ming Lanying couldn't care about the hat in her hand for a while, and asked Dongxia curiously.

"Dongxia, do you know when Song Shanshan first fell in love with Ye Juelv?"

Dong Xia was taken aback, "This... seems to be after the emperor ascended the throne."

"Sure enough, Ye Juelu is the lone star of the gods with no taboos." Ming Lanying nodded clearly, "Song Shanshan has always talked about the friendship of her childhood sweetheart, I thought she really liked Ye Juelu since she was a child I think she wished she could stay away from Ye Juelv at that time."

Dong Xia nodded again and again, "Song Shanshan probably fell in love with Brother Ye because he saw that Brother Ye has the merits of being a dragon and is a close minister of the emperor."

"But it's not right..." Ming Lanying frowned and thought, "Ye Juelu has been exiled, why is she still here?"

"Could it be that you really fell in love with Brother Ye?" Dongxia shook her head, "No, no, she is the kind of person who puts glory and wealth first."

Ming Lanying nodded, "Indeed, it should be that Ye Juelu has something that she has taken a fancy to, and this thing is more powerful than the Dong family, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, so she is not letting go."

"What is it?"

Ming Lanying shook her head, "How do I know that?"

Dong Xia said: "Then go ask Brother Ye!"

Ming Lanying shook her head helplessly, "Forget it, how could he say, forget it, Song Shanshan has already returned to Beijing, why are you still afraid of her?"

Dongxia thinks about it, so she turns around and continues to teach Ming Lanying how to sew a hat, and she must teach her today!
When Ye Juelu came back at night, he found a row of colorful lanterns hanging under the eaves. Under the night sky, the icicles printed on the eaves looked very beautiful.

Doctor Zhao sat under the gazebo drinking tea and watching the excitement, and beside him were two little squirrels in small clothes.Ming Lanying, Ning'er, and Dongxia were having a snowball fight in the yard. The three of them were wearing thick padded jackets and festive and cute tiger hats on their heads, like three chubby little tigers. People laughed wantonly.

Ming Lanying was able to fight against Ning'er and Dongxia alone, but Ning'er ran around with her head in her arms under the cover of Dongxia, and immediately ran towards him when she saw Ye Juelu come back.

"Father! Come and help!"

The voice was clear and cheerful, and quickly attracted Ming Lanying's attention.

Ye Juelu bent down to pick up a snowball, and was about to step forward to protect Ning'er, when a snowball flew towards him and hit him precisely on the head, Ming Lanying laughed triumphantly, Ning'er immediately turned around , ran back to Dongxia.

Ye Juelu: "..."

With Ye Juelu's passive participation, the three of them had more fun. Dongxia and Ning'er's snowballs basically hit Ming Lanying behind Ye Juelu. Ye Juelu was protecting Ming Lanying behind him while Picking up the snowball controlled the strength and hit the opposite side with precision.

After a commotion, Dongxia and Ning'er both surrendered.

"Don't fight anymore, I was bullied by your husband and wife." Dongxia gasped and shouted to surrender, the smile on his face never disappeared.

Ning'er shouted to surrender, while throwing herself into Ming Lanying's arms, "Mother, Ning'er is hungry."

Ming Lanying smiled and patted off the snowflakes on his body, "Go to the house with sister Dongxia to warm up and then come out, we can eat."

Ming Lanying shook the snow off her body, and said to Ye Juelu, "Go change your clothes, wash your hands and eat, I'll wait for you."

After the quarrel, Ye Juelu was also in a good mood, with a smile in his eyes, he went to another room to change clothes after hearing her words, and went to the kitchen to help her serve dishes at the suggestion of Imperial Physician Zhao.

When the dishes were all served, Ye Juelu was surprised to find that tonight's meals were richer than usual, but today didn't seem like a big day, but it was not a holiday, and no one had a birthday.

No one mentioned it, but Ming Lanying even poured him a bowl of wine, which flattered him.

Imperial Physician Zhao looked at his dumbfounded look amusedly, and scolded him for being useless.

At night, Ming Lanying couldn't resist Ning'er's coquetry and cuteness, and the family of three slept on the same kang again tonight. In the middle of the night, Ming Lanying was woken up by the noise from outside.

Turning over, the sleeping reason came back a little, and heard the sound of two owls outside the house.

"Why isn't she awake yet?"

"Slept to death again."

"Her house collapsed and was stolen, but she can still sleep."

"Maybe this is a human being, and it has nothing to do with us."

Ming Lanying: "..."

She hadn't seen these two owls for a long time. She thought they were eaten by a large bird, but she was still alive and found her new home.

But her house collapsed?Ming Lanying got up lightly, put on her padded jacket and went out.

In the dark night when you can't see your fingers, Ming Lanying glanced at the yard, nothing has changed, the house is fine, and the gazebo is also fine.

When the two owls saw her coming out, they cooed and turned their heads.

"Come out, come out."

"Hey, your house has collapsed, your things were stolen and you are still sleeping."

Ming Lanying closed the door lightly, and said softly, "What nonsense are you talking about in the middle of the night, be careful I'll catch you two and stew you two!"

An owl turned its head the other way. "That home, that home."

"Collapsed by snow, collapsed by snow, things were stolen."

Ming Lanying was taken aback, the old house collapsed, "Did you see who it is?"

"of course."

"A very thin man, not good-looking, with protruding teeth, small eyes, wearing a round hat like a watermelon."

The owl is a night-vision animal, and Ming Lanying did not expect to be able to see so carefully in the dark night, "I see, thank you very much."

An owl flapped its wings and said, "Thank us with two rabbits."

Ming Lanying raised her eyebrows, it turned out she was here to ask for credit, "There are no rabbits, but there are chickens, and the two weak chickens in the pen can be given to you. You are not allowed to catch more."

She has plenty of chickens. The male and female chickens she bought at the beginning have grown up long ago, and just gave birth to a new litter of chickens at the end of autumn.

An owl stared in the direction of the woods, and an owl stared at the nest under the eaves, "Squirrels and sparrows are fine too."

"No." Ming Lanying looked at it fiercely with her hips crossed, "That's my son's playmate and guard, don't move."

"Ok."

Two owls flapped their wings and flew to the fence in the corner of the yard, and the two weakest chicks were caught.

Ming Lanying yawned and went back to the house. There was nothing valuable and useful in the old house, so she planned to wait until tomorrow morning to tell Ye Juelu about the collapse of the old house.

After she lay down lightly and soundly asleep, Ye Juelu quietly opened her eyes, and she could accurately look at Ming Lanying in the dark.

He heard every word Ming Lanying said outside the house just now, but apart from her voice, he didn't hear anyone else's voice, only the hooting of the owl from time to time, as if mocking his incompetence.

The past few days were so beautiful that he almost forgot that Ming Lanying was not the only man.The hands under the quilt were clenched into fists, and Ye Juelu took a deep breath for a while before suppressing the unreasonable anger in his heart, and he didn't fall asleep all night.

When Ming Lanying woke up, she unexpectedly didn't see Ye Juelu's figure. During this period of time, she got used to waking up, and she could still see him making breakfast or sweeping snow.

"Ning'er, where's your father?"

"Daddy went to the shop early in the morning!" Ning'er obediently brought out the hot breakfast in the pot.

Ming Lanying rubbed his little bun, didn't think much about it, called Dong Xia to go to the old house to tidy up after breakfast.

Holding a shovel, Dongxia looked at the dilapidated house buried in the snow in shock, "Sister-in-law's guess is really accurate, it really collapsed."

Ning'er was a little sad, "Mother, the house has collapsed."

Ming Lanying rubbed his little face, "It's okay, mother tidy up, and tell your father to rebuild it when spring comes."

"Fortunately, my sister-in-law had the foresight to buy a new house, otherwise the beam would have fallen on her." Dong Xia said with a smile: "It's also fortunate that brother Ye is not sleeping here, otherwise something will happen at night."

Ming Lanying didn't expect that the old house could not withstand the wind and snow, but now she was a little curious about what was stolen.

After tidying up for a long time, I really can't clean it up, Ming Lanying doesn't care anymore, just let it go.

"Winter and summer are gone. I won't collect them. It's all snow and wood. I'll tell him when you come back."

Dongxia crossed her waist and sighed, "There are still three thousand nails in the broken boat, and three thousand catties in the collapsed house, but I am exhausted."

Ming Lanying smiled and patted her, "Let's go back and make fish soup pancakes for you."

Dongxia and Ning'er cheered, and the three of them walked home slowly. When passing by the entrance of the village, a small sparrow flew over. Ming Lanying took a closer look and saw that it was Ma Yi.

Ma Yi fluttered her small wings, and landed on the shovel that Ming Lanying was carrying on her shoulders, and Dong Xia looked at it curiously.

"Sister-in-law, this little sparrow is not afraid of people."

Ming Lanying smiled and hummed, "Maybe it's because we feed the birds."

Ma Yi pecked at the feathers, "Miss Ming, I saw a woman at the entrance of your village, she seemed to be dying, she kept chanting your husband's name, she should be your rival in love."

Ming Lanying was taken aback, and looked in the direction of the village entrance. There was nothing to be seen in the white snow, but Ming Lanying still stretched out her hand to hold Dongxia.

"Dongxia, look at the entrance of the village, is there someone lying down?"

Dongxia was startled by her, looked around and breathed a sigh of relief, "Sister-in-law, you scared me, no one would appear at the entrance of the village and lie down at noon."

Ning'er didn't see it either, "Mother, did you read it wrong?"

Ming Lanying said firmly: "Yes, let's go over and have a look, what if he faints?"

Dongxia was dragged away by Ming Lanying suspiciously, and Ning'er followed her cautiously, moved a few steps towards the entrance of the village, and flew over with a flutter of wings.

The three of them followed the direction of the little sparrow, and indeed found a figure half buried in the snow in the snow.

Dongxia exclaimed, "Oh my god! Sister-in-law, there is really someone, I'll go and see."

"and many more."

Ming Lanying vigilantly took the shovel and lightly touched the person on the snowy ground, the shovel gently pushed, and the person on the ground was turned upside down.

Ning'er hid behind Ming Lanying, and was taken aback when she saw that person's appearance. She felt familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was.

Ming Lanying frowned, "It's a woman, Dong Xia, let's see if she's still alive."

Dongxia quickly felt his pulse, breathed again, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Sister-in-law, she's still alive."

Ming Lanying quickly gave her a helping hand, carried the man home and rescued him first.

It just so happened that Zhao's house had been renovated the day before yesterday, and there was a separate consulting room. Doctor Zhao was shocked when he saw that the two had gone out early in the morning, but brought someone back at noon.

"What's going on here?"

Ning'er took Imperial Physician Zhao by the hand, and led him over to have a look, "Grandpa Zhao, it's a man my mother picked up at the entrance of the village. Elder sister Dongxia said that it's about to die, so take a look."

Ming Lanying frantically took off the wet and cold coat for the unconscious woman, and Dong Xia hugged a quilt to keep her warm. Doctor Zhao touched her pulse lightly with her fingers, and was shocked by the ice.

"This is how long I've been lying in the snow, it's frozen like this!"
