I am a sister-in-law in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1 Paradise on Earth
A.D. 194, Lujiang City.

Lu Kang was the prefect at that time. He built the city high and stored grain widely. Clusters of four-jointed blue brick houses can be seen everywhere in the city.

At that time, Cao Cao and Lu Bu were competing for Yanzhou, Yuan Shu attacked Xuzhou and Liu Bei was in a stalemate, and the north was in turmoil.

But the people here can live and work in peace and contentment, just like a paradise on earth.

In December, the north wind blows southward and the snow falls heavily.

In the mulberry garden in the south of the city, Qiao Jingjing is full of yearning for a better life, and she personally manures the mulberry tree Wo farmhouse for the winter, she is extremely busy.

Qiao Jingjing took over all the affairs of her mulberry garden this spring, and the mulberry garden changed suddenly.The growth of mulberry trees is gratifying, and three thousand catties of dried mulberry fruits are collected in that season. In addition to raising silkworms, the mulberry leaves picked each season are also made into mulberry leaf tea and mulberry leaf wine.After the autumn harvest, thousands of chickens and ducks have been raised in the mulberry garden, and more than [-] eggs have been laid.The old father was so happy that he burst into tears, saying that the income from this mulberry garden can control the family's food and drink in the coming year.

In Qiao's courtyard, the Second Young Master and the Third Young Master gathered together a group of friends.

Young men gathered around the stove to cook wine with wintersweet, their red sleeves were fragrant, and they talked loudly.

"This world has changed! When Cao Cao conquered Tao Qian in Xuzhou, the prefects of Chenliu Zhang Miao and Chen Gong took the opportunity to rebel against Cao Cao and welcomed Lu Bu as Yanzhou Shepherd. This rebellion spread widely, except for Yanzhou Juancheng and Hefan County and Dong'a , all rebelled against Lu Bu, and the situation is very tense."

"Sun Ce recruited hundreds of people in the name of his uncle Guangling prefect Wu Jing, and then asked Yuan Shu to ask for his father Sun Jian's old troops. There were more than a thousand people in total. Because the army was short of food, Yuan Shu asked our prefect Lu for [-] hu to fill the army. Taishou Lu sympathized with the sufferings of the people, closed his doors and did not communicate with Yuan Shu, and refurbished his war preparations to meet the enemy. Yuan Shu was furious, and immediately sent Sun Ce to attack Lujiang."

During the conversation, it seemed that the world was about to be turbulent.

Dog friends asked Mr. Qiao what his plan is for now.
Second Young Master Qiao thought about it again and again, and said that a good man should fight in all directions to quell the war, and a real man should make a difference.

Isn’t troubled times a great opportunity for men to make contributions?
There was a steady stream of applause.

Dog friend Li immediately promised to sell his beloved Liuhua horse to Qiao Er for only 50 taels of silver to help him realize his dream.Dog friend Zhu offered a low price of three taels of gold for his Hongfeng sword.

Second Young Master Qiao was so moved that he wanted to cry.

After a few people bowed to the vast world, the three thousand kilograms of mulberries, dozens of jars of fine wine, and hundreds of thousands of chicken and duck eggs that had been stored in the Qiao family's warehouse this year had moved into the door of Li and Zhu's family.

In the courtyard, there is a vast expanse of snow.The second son of Qiao turned his back to his empty warehouse, holding the red front sword, and shouted at the six-flowered horse.

"Ma'er, oh, horse, let's see me, Qiao Er, stir up trouble in this world."

Old father Qiao Xuan discussed important matters with Prefect Lu all day long.

Back home, seeing the suddenly looted and emptied warehouse and the half-crazed second son, Qiao Lao was so angry that he fell out of bed.

"Sister, it's not good. Father fell ill."

Qiao Manman panted and ran to the mulberry garden to report the news to Qiao Jingjing.

"Second brother sold everything you have worked hard to save this year."

Before Qiao Jingjing, a hard-working farm girl, could take a breather with a cup of hot tea, she learned the terrible news from her delicate little sister.

There was a bang in my head.

That was a year's ration work for the family. She managed to earn it, so she just sold it?
Qiao Jingjing carried a big stick and went home aggressively to find Qiao Er.

The bedridden old father had already tied Qiao Er Wuhuada to him and was still kneeling in the yard to reflect.

Qiao San knew that he was in the wrong, so he also knelt in the yard together, not daring to express his anger.

Only the second daughter-in-law Qiao was not convinced. He Miaomiao took advantage of the opportunity of feeding Qiao's father some soup and medicine to excuse her prodigal husband.

"Ah, why are you so angry? What wrong did my Erlang do? Three thousand kilograms of dried mulberries are so strange. The mulberry trees bear fruit again and again next year. There are so many of them.

"People who understand the market say that the Six-Flower Horse and Red Peak Sword is worth a thousand gold. Ah Weng, do you think there is any business man around who doesn't have a good sword to ride and ride?

"Erlang can go to Lu Taishou's mansion because he has such face. Walking around a lot is good for our family. It's good for the whole family.

"Besides, it's not good to store the eggs and duck eggs in the warehouse. If you don't eat enough, it will attract rats. My son, Erlang, is so pitiful for this family. In this cold winter, he was punished by Aweng to kneel in the ground. My younger brothers and sisters Everyone is watching! How could you do it, Aweng~"

Supplemented by whining cries.

Father Qiao was so angry that he vomited out all the medicine he had just drank.

Father Qiao pointed at his sons kneeling on the ground, hating that iron could not become steel, his face turned red and he could not say a word.

Qiao Manman is a well-behaved little girl. After hearing these indiscriminate words, she couldn't help but argue, "Second sister-in-law, why don't you understand? Everyone knows that Yuan Shu attacked the Lujiang River and sent Sun Ce to besiege the city. Everyone was busy gathering food. My family is doing well, I sold my food and drink, and bought two useless things.”

"Xiao Qiao! You girl, can you please be more conscientious when you speak! What are useless things? What do you mean by useless things! At home, there are two eldest girls, you and Da Qiao, who will not marry when they reach their age! "

You two sisters are two useless things!

"Your second elder brother is so worried that he can't eat or sleep. He has worked so hard all day to make a living, why is it useless? Ah Weng is angry now, but it's just because of business worries."

"You, my sister, didn't help me by saying nice things, but you added insult to injury. Who are you really? You're still a close relative of the same family, huh. Do you deserve this?"

He Miaomiao was chattering endlessly.

Qiao Manman had no combat experience and was extremely aggrieved when she was scolded and had no power to reply.

Qiao Jingjing rubbed her temples.

Quarrel!Qiao Jingjing slapped her brother Qiao Er's face cleanly and neatly.

Red fingerprints suddenly appeared on Qiao Er's handsome face.

"Three thousand catties of dried mulberries, based on the market price of 21 Wen per catty, amount to 210, totaling 90 taels of silver. Duck eggs are worth 220 Wen and [-] eggs, and [-] eggs are also worth [-] taels." [-]. Mulberry wine is not included! The [-]-denier millet and [-]-denier rice, which you donated to officials a few days ago, have not been counted with you. The Hongfengjian Liuhua horse you bought today is all Give it to me to pay off the debt, and your husband and wife owe me [-] taels in total. Oh, the slap you just received can also be worth one tael of silver."

Qiao Jingjing paced in the courtyard, finished speaking in one breath, and the entire Qiao family courtyard was silent for a moment.

He Miaomiao squinted her eyes, looking at her husband Qiao Er's face with distress.

Qiao Manman finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, the only person in the world who can cure the second sister-in-law is Da Qiao, the eldest sister.

Qiao Er is like a pustule.

Qiao Manman's proud look irritated He Miaomiao.

During the short truce, He Miaomiao quickly gathered a bunch of excuses.

"Sister, what you said is wrong. We are a family of the same flesh and blood, and every application is under the name of Aweng regardless of each other. No matter how meritorious you are in managing the mulberry garden, you just need some compensation. These 200 No matter what the extra taels of money come into the account, it won’t be counted on you. You even brought up the matter about the corn and rice the day before yesterday! Are you bullying me and my wife like this just because I love you? Oh my God, please open your eyes. Let’s see, what kind of world is this? A father doesn’t care about his son and prefers his daughter. Is it possible that this daughter can take care of her in old age? If a daughter can take care of herself, why would anyone in this world have a son? It’s better to just live with my daughter for the rest of my life.”

this!

The more he spoke, the more outrageous and personal attacks he made.

Qiao Jingjing looked at Papa Qiao.

Father's brows were tightly furrowed, and his face was livid with anger.

"Brothers and sisters, it is wrong for Qiao Er to be wrong about today's matter. He has no brains and was cheated by a dubious friend. He made the whole family pay for him. He should be punished. Father, as the head of the family, punished him for his own sake. Okay, let him have a long memory. You can’t make your father partial by rambling. My father is old, and it’s not easy to support a large family in the turmoil and take care of the safety of a large family. It’s not easy for younger siblings to make troubles without reason. It's good to go back to my mother's house. This way everyone will be quiet with each other."

Qiao Jingjing said so, Qiao Manman and Qiao San nodded at the same time.

He Miaomiao was so angry that she immediately jumped up.

"Ah Weng! Listen to what Da Qiao said? What! You want me to go back to my parents' home? That's unreasonable! Now that I'm married, I will be a member of the Qiao family in life and a ghost of the Qiao family in death. But you, eldest sister, She doesn't seek out her husband's family when she's young, and instead shows off her authority in her parents' family every day. Looking at the whole Lujiang City, which girl doesn't want to get married when she's old? Who is like the eldest sister who spends all day in the mulberry garden? Anyone who knows , and also said that your eldest sister is diligent, but for those who don’t know, it’s because your younger brothers can’t treat you well..."

Qiao Jingjing is very friendly and kind.

How old is she?I just turned 16 this summer.

She reminded Qiao Er's daughter-in-law with a smile on her face that she could immediately kneel down and be punished with Qiao Er.

A good attitude can reduce the debts of her husband and wife.

"You, you, you..." He Miaomiao's face was turned blue and red when she was forced, and she couldn't breathe.

"I beg you to shut up! Miao Miao, come here and admit your mistake to Ah Weng. I admit that I was wrong about today's matter. It is because I have soft ears and was fooled by bad guys."

Even Qiao Er admitted his mistake.

Qiao's second daughter-in-law fought for a long time, but her husband turned out to be useless in front of Da Qiao. She hated him so much.

But in the end, for the sake of money, I gave Da Qiao this face.

In the snow, Qiao Er, his wife and Qiao San knelt upright.

Father Qiao drank the decoction again, his tired face could not hide his worry.

He was not good at dealing with the complicated family affairs, but there was no one in the family who took care of the housework. Only the eldest daughter was mature and took care of the trivial matters here and there.

But his eldest daughter's appearance of being soberer than anyone else in the world often made him feel at a loss.

She often talked with him about the changes in the world, about farming and harvesting.

The most frightening thing is her prophecy of ignorance.

She said that Sun Ce was stationed outside Lujiang City, and it looked like he was going to destroy Lujiang City this winter. With Sun Ce's own behavior, more than half of the more than [-] men in Prefect Lu's family would be slaughtered.
