suspected wife

Since Mrs. Wu went to the workshop to ask for wages, Yue Zhongyao rarely appeared in the workshop.

Even Qiao Mingjin stopped guarding the gate of the courtyard.

Every time I go to the ground, I will go around and look at the yard from a distance.Listen to the sound of the daughter and the children playing and laughing from a distance.

There was no smile on Yue Zhongyao's face anymore.

Every day, he had a dark face on the floor, serious and serious.At the end of the day, I couldn't hear him say a word or two.

The cock crowed every day, the sky was still dark, and before everyone in the Yue family got up, he had already wiped his face with cold water three or two times, and went to the field with a hoe on his shoulder.

Stayed in the field until lunch time and came back again.

At the dinner table, no words were spoken.After taking a few mouthfuls of food in a hurry, he got up and went to the field again.If Mrs. Wu wanted to nag, she got up, put on two black-faced steamed buns, and went out without looking back.

Wu Shi can't help it.

Seeing that he didn't go to Qiao Mingjin's side, she was happy to let him go.

As long as she sees her son is far away from Mrs. Qiao, Mrs. Qiao has no man by her side, and Mrs. Qiao is alone, she will be happy.

I can't wait for Qiao Mingjin to run over and kneel in front of her the next moment, begging her to let her come back, saying that she can't do without a man.

At that time, no matter how hard she taunted her, Mrs. Qiao would mistakenly think that she had forgiven her.Waiting for her to be happy and then pushing her away, that would be something to applaud.

Wu's thoughts are beautiful, every dream is the scene of Qiao Mingjin begging her for mercy.

But Yue Zhongyao was afraid that his old mother would make trouble with Qiao Mingjin's mother and daughter, so he deliberately avoided Qiao Mingjin.

There was not much work to do in the fields at this time.There is nothing else to do except weeding and catching insects.

The sun is shining, and in this season, most of the households have cats at home or doing odd jobs outside.No one wants to be exposed to the sun in the fields under the scorching sun. If you don't get heatstroke, you have to spend a lot of money.

It is not so easy to seek medical treatment in this countryside.

Farmers have to go to the field this season, and they usually go to the field at dawn in the morning.When the sun is high, go home and have lunch, and then take a rest to avoid the most intense time at noon.After a while, he went down to the ground again.

But Yue Zhongyao didn't want to stay at home.

After lunch, some water filled with bamboo tubes hanging from my waist came out again.

When the sun was shining that day, he found an old tree, and the cat hid under the shade to cool off.

He is not a fool, he would go to the field to dry meat.

The mud in the ground was scorching hot from the sun, not to mention that he went down to the ground with bare feet.Even if he wore shoes, they were still very hot.

The sun was so hot that people were sweating all over, and they could hear the sound of sizzling oil on their bodies.

Yue Zhongyao hid under the shade of a tree, leaning against the tree trunk, with one foot bent and the other stretched forward.Close your eyes and meditate.

My mind is clear.

He had been back to his hometown for a while, and he originally planned to take the hundred taels of silver back to his hometown to buy a few acres of land.If he worked harder and reclaimed a few acres of wasteland, no matter how thin the land was, he could still harvest one or two grains of grain every year.

After three years, even if the tax has to be paid, the land will be fattened.When the wasteland becomes fertile land, he will have about ten acres of land in his hands, which is enough for a family of three to eat and drink.

It's just that his wife made such a fuss.He only had ten taels of silver left in his hand.

In the end, he asked him to find a clay pot to throw the ten taels of silver into it and bury it in the ground, so that his wife would not search it.

Otherwise, what would he buy for his wife and daughter?

His old mother absolutely refused to take out the money for him to spend for Jinniang's mother and daughter.

Even the remaining twelve taels of silver are worthless.

Nowadays, even one mu of fertile land cannot be afforded.Ten taels of silver are not spent.Xiaoman will get married in November.As an elder brother, he always prepares some gifts and makeup for his sister.

Originally, he still wanted to help out in the workshop. It would be a great thing to help his wife and see his wife and daughter often.

But his old lady came to make trouble from time to time, not to mention Jinniang, even he was very upset.

What should he do now?

The family has more than ten acres of land, even if the family is divided, and it is allocated to him, he will not get a few acres.

He is not afraid of hardship.He has a lot of strength, and he can open up wasteland in his spare time, and he can open up a few acres of land in a year.In the past few days, he has already driven out a bit.

Besides, his accuracy is also good, and he can make up for it by hunting on other mountains for a year.If not, it is also a subsidy to go to the city to take some odd jobs during the slack season.

He has climbed out of the hard life since he was a child.He came back after saving his life in that bloody, man-eating field. What kind of suffering can't he eat?

He was afraid that he would wrong Jinniang and the child.

Jinniang...Jinniang seems to be living a more prosperous life now.

The workshop doesn't know if she has a share, but it only depends on the furnishings, clothes and daily food in her house...it will cost a lot.

Going back to Yunjia Village to prepare New Year's gifts for her parents-in-law during the holidays, does Jinniang have to pay for it?

Yue Zhongyao had never touched money when he was a child, he hadn't even touched copper coins a few times, and he hadn't seen silver a few times when he grew up.That is to say, after he became a policeman in the county government, he received some money from time to time, which made him feel that he also had the ability to feed his wife and daughter without being wronged.

But now the ten taels of silver in his hand may not be able to cover the heat.

What will he use to support his wife and daughter?

It will not be possible to separate until the end of the year at the earliest.After the separation, I still need to buy things, and at that time it is the end of the year, I have to prepare food for the New Year, I have to prepare New Year gifts for my parents-in-law and my wife’s natal family, and I have to prepare New Year gifts for my parents...

Yue Zhongyao never cared about money.

But at this moment, he felt that it was extremely difficult for him not to have two silver coins in his hand.

Yue Zhongyao's eyes were somewhat confused.

From time to time, the scene of Zhou Yanqing driving his ostentatious carriage to the village and asking the servants to carry various items to Jinniang's house...

Every time it hurt his nerves.

Yue Zhongyao scratched his scalp in pain.

He didn't know how to break the deadlock with Jinniang.

Obviously the lady is right in front of him, but he feels that thousands of mountains and thousands of rivers are separated.

Sometimes he thinks that he is more rambunctious and thick-skinned.The Overlord bows hard and forgets.He is her husband and she is his wife.How else?

It's just that he has always known that his wife has always been soft rather than hard, she is a little girl who would rather be broken than broken, if he insists, I'm afraid he will push his wife further and further away.

Sometimes wandering outside the walls of his wife's courtyard, he could vaguely hear the laughter of his wife and daughter inside the walls, and at night there was the sound of his wife gently coaxing her daughter to sleep.He wanted to climb over the wall and jump in impulsively many times...

Yue Zhongyao looked at the wasteland he had opened up in the past few days with a dazed expression on his face.

So hard, opened up the wasteland.I don't know how many points he can get when the family is separated.

"Zhong Yao?"

Yue Zhongyao woke up from the wasteland under the scorching sun, and looked towards the sound.

"Fourth uncle."

Yue Zhongyao retracted his outstretched legs, put his hands on the mud, patted his buttocks, and stood up.

Lao Yuetou's fourth younger brother, Yue Huasheng, stared at Yue Zhongyao with his hands behind his back, and then slowly walked towards him.

Yue Zhongyao waited for him to approach.He looked into the small basket in his hand, and said with a smile, "Fourth Uncle picked up cow dung again?"

Yue Huasheng was carrying a basket in one hand, and an iron clip in the other.The basket was filled with half a basket of dry and flat pieces of cow dung.

Yue Huasheng responded and approached him.

Glancing at his face twice, he put the basket far away on the ground beside him, and sat down next to the place where Yue Zhongyao had just sat.

The dried cow dung has no smell.But Yue Huasheng still put it far away.

Yue Zhongyao watched him sit down on the ground.He also sat down about half an arm away from him.

"Why doesn't Fourth Uncle stay at home to rest? Come out now?"

Yue Huasheng was not in a hurry to return to him, he squinted his eyes and looked up at the sky.Fang said: "Will it come out, the cow dung is waiting for me to pick it up?"

Yue Zhongyao glanced at his basket and smiled.

The sun will be shining, and few people will go out here.They all took a rest in the shade.

But ever since Qiao Mingjin dug rotting leaves and mud in the forest as fertilizer, the villagers seldom robbed the cow dung.

In previous years, this cow dung was a rare item.Farmers need to manure their fields, but those with only two or three mu of land don’t have to worry about the manure they save.It would be enough to dig out some ashes into the stove.

If there is a lot of land, the fertilizer will not be enough.

So the big cow dung became a sought-after item.

Furthermore, although Xiahe Village is richer than other nearby villages.But there are not many families with cattle.Even if the cow was pulled in an inconspicuous place, someone could find it and shovel it back before it dried.

It's just that this year, no one will grab that cow dung anymore.It's just that Yue Huasheng still doesn't change his old habits.

Wearing a straw hat in the scorching sun every day, carrying a basket and rushing ahead of others.

Fortunately, no one has robbed him now, and he picked up almost a basket in just a short while.

Yue Zhongyao smiled at him.

"Fourth Uncle, you still have to come out under the scorching sun to look for this thing now? Brother Li Xia and Li Qiu can let you come out?"

Yue Huasheng raised two sons and two daughters.

Both daughters are married.The two sons did not separate, and lived with his wife.

One year older than Yue Zhongyao, named Yue Lixia, married his wife Su Shi, and gave birth to a son and a daughter.The youngest son, Yue Liqiu, is younger than Yue Zhongyao and married his wife Ma Shi.Ma's stomach is getting bigger now.

After Ma Shi became pregnant, Yue Liqiu called her back from the workshop.

Later, when there were more jobs in the workshop, Qiao Mingjin would occasionally ask Yue Liqiu to do odd jobs a few times, which was also a subsidy.However, the field has not been busy these past few months, but he has been working in the workshop every day.

Every month, I can go home and get a tael of silver to go home.

And Yue Huasheng's family background is similar to that of Lao Yuetou, but Yue Lixia and Yue Liqiu are solid and willing to work hard.The fields were the same when the family was separated earlier. After the separation, the father and son opened another ten acres of wasteland.

After several years of cultivation, the wasteland has matured.Later, Qiao Mingjin rented out several acres of fertile land that Qiao Mingjin bought in the village to his family. Now their family's life is much better than that of Lao Yuetou's family.

Yue Huasheng didn't answer Yue Zhongyao's words, but took out his pocket, only to realize that he didn't bring out the hookah pole when he went out.

So he put his hands on the mud, moved his body back, leaned on the tree trunk, looked at Yue Zhongyao, and said earnestly: "Zhongyao, are you going to live like this?" (To be continued.
