Rebirth of the poor elder sister-in-law

Chapter 109
I bought saltpeter and carefully wrapped it in kraft paper. Liu Man'er walked out happily, but when she went out, she accidentally ran into a lady, a lady wearing gold and silver. The lady hadn't spoken yet, but the girl behind her was Arrogantly pointing at Liu Man'er and cursing:
"You don't have eyes when you walk, do you know who our wife is?!"

Liu Man'er was baffled, and swallowed the sentence that she wanted to apologize: "Hearing you talk like this, your wife must be a big shot, no wonder there is someone like you around!"

"You!" The servant girl was furious when she heard Liu Man'er's words. She pointed at Liu Man'er, but she couldn't say a word.

"What are you?" Liu Man'er said coldly, "It was my fault that I bumped into this lady, but if you are so aggressive, I'm afraid you are not educated."

"I'm not educated?" The servant girl stood up and stretched out her hand to hit Liu Man'er.

But her wrist was grasped by Ye Yuanyi who was behind Liu Man'er, and he pushed her hard, causing the servant girl to fall to the ground. At this time, the servant girl cried out relentlessly, "Ma'am, look, this The country bitch bumped into you and beat me instead of telling me."

Country bitch?Now Liu Man'er was really angry, she stepped forward, and slapped the maid twice, "Do you understand the truth that misfortune comes from your mouth?"

"Stop!" At this time, the lady who had been silent all this time finally spoke up. She looked at Liu Man'er coldly and said, "Beating a dog depends on the owner. You two are just country bastards, how dare you act so boldly?"

"Heh, we are the lowly people from the countryside, so who are you?" Liu Man'er said coldly, "I'm afraid you may not be more noble than others."

"Hmph, you are dead, our wife is the magistrate's most beloved Aunt Hong." The servant girl got up from the ground and looked at Liu Man'er and the two of them viciously.

"Auntie? She's just a slave, what right does she have to be called madam!" Liu Man'er mocked in a cold voice.

"Okay, you actually called me a slave!" It seemed that Liu Man'er's words had touched her pain, and the county magistrate's most beloved Aunt Hong stretched out her hand to hit Liu Man'er on the spot.

As soon as Liu Man'er grabbed her hand, Aunt Hong looked towards the side of the street and yelled, "Little Six, come quickly, these two dare to bully me!"

A pair of county government officers who were patrolling the street heard the call of Aunt Hong, looked this way, and then ran to this side. Liu Maner's brain became hot, and she didn't want to conflict with these people, so she pulled Ye Yuan away. ran forward.

The county government quickly ran over, Ye Yuan and Liu Man'er rushed into the crowd, and then disappeared, these people worried about Aunt Hong's safety and did not chase anymore, they just walked in front of Aunt Hong, "Madam Hong, are you okay. "

"What can I do!" Immediately, Aunt Hong slapped the county government and cursed, "You trash!"

She was completely venting her anger at Liu Man'er scolding her, and there was no other reason.

"It's so difficult to be a human being." In the crowd, Liu Man'er looked at this side from a distance in the crowd. Originally, she wanted to see if these people were chasing after her, but she saw this scene instead.

"It's really impossible without rights. What the hell, you can meet such things when you go out for a walk." Liu Man'er said to herself again: "I'm so scared that I dare not come to the county town. What if next time What will I do if I encounter her troubles for me again?"

"No, she's just a servant girl, she's been favored by the master's family to be able to go shopping, and we won't meet her again when we come next time." Ye Yuan said casually.

"That's good. I still plan to do business in this county. I'm afraid she will make trouble for me. The people don't fight with the officials. Seeing how she is now, she dares to beat the county government. She must be very favored. When the time comes, it won't take much effort to get rid of me." Liu Maner said with some self-mockery.

Ye Yuan didn't speak, but something took root in his heart. He hoped that one day she could also be the wife of an official family, instead of worrying about meeting the enemy's family on the street, instead of even being a slave. Dare to abuse her wantonly.

"Let's go back quickly. When I go back, I must urge Ye Feng and Fusheng to study hard, and strive to be admitted as a scholar, a scholar, or even a Jinshi as soon as possible. Being an official will also honor the ancestors. By the way, you can protect me."

Because she just met these two people, Liu Man'er was in no mood to go shopping, so she directly took Ye Yuan home.

Along the way, in fact, she was also thinking, sometimes relying on one person's hard work, without the help of noble people, is really difficult, and it is easy to be bullied or even annoyed by someone, and your business can fail in a matter of minutes go down.

This society is such a dark reality. It is really difficult for farmers to rise up. It is better to forget it like this. No ice shop will be opened. Farming at home, raising chickens and ducks, living a simple life, and supporting a few children Reading can be regarded as carefree, anyway, she doesn't have the talent to do business.

If she was a little girl, she might still be able to smile and lick her face to please others, but she is not, she is a woman who already has a husband, and if she does some things, it will be called wrong by others Keeping women's way, I'm also afraid that Ye Yuan and Fang's will not like it.

After living a new life, money is not so important in her heart. What she values ​​is people. For the sake of the warmth and harmony of the whole family, it doesn't matter if you earn less money. As long as the family is happy, it is more important than anything else.

A little wealth means peace, and the current life is enough. Anyway, after struggling, you will enjoy life, so it is better to enjoy life now.

After figuring this out, Liu Man'er felt that her life would be easier in the future. She didn't need to think of any new solutions. Almost all the affairs at home had been arranged in an orderly manner. All she had to do was to water her mushrooms. Water, water her plants and trees, play with her animals, and tidy up the whole yard to make it look nicer and more welcoming.

Life is leisurely and simple. On this day, Ye Feng came home from school and told everyone about a happy event. He said that the master said that in a few days it will be the children's test. He is going to take the test for children. You can go to the academy in the county to enroll.

Naturally, Liu Man'er supported Liu Man'er. After being admitted to Tongsheng, he could be regarded as a student, taking the first step on the bridge of fame and fame.

Ye Yuan accompanied Ye Qing to the town to take the exam, Liu Man'er was alone at home, she was really worried, mainly worried about whether Ye Qing would be able to pass the exam, and also worried about whether they would encounter trouble in the county.

The exam lasted for three days. Ye Yuan and Ye Qing passed three days in advance, so it took six or seven days to come back. Liu Man'er had never been away from Ye Yuan for such a long time. She thought she wouldn't worry, but at night she But he couldn't sleep, he was used to having someone by his side.

Still tossing and turning in the middle of the night, she listened carefully from time to time to hear if there was a sound of horseshoes coming back, but it seemed that she really heard the sound from afar. Liu Man'er hurriedly put on her clothes and came to the side door. It's getting closer here.

Just as Ye Yuan stretched out his hand to knock on the door, Liu Man'er opened the door.

Seeing Liu Man'er, Ye Yuan was very surprised, but Liu Man'er spoke first: "Aren't you not going back?"

"I'm worried about you being alone at home." Ye Yuan led the horse in and said, "The weather is still a bit cold, you go up and rest first, I'll come up later."

"Don't worry, you've been busy all the way, I'll boil water to wash your face." Liu Man'er went to the kitchen and lit a fire to boil water. Now that she is proficient at doing this, she won't blow herself to death again. His face was gray.

Ye Yuan walked in, saw Liu Man'er earnestly lighting the fire, and for a moment didn't know how to say, "Man'er..."

Liu Man'er raised her head, "You came back so late at night, you must be hungry? Do you want me to serve you a bowl of noodles?"

"Not hungry, don't bother." Ye Yuan shook his head.

The fire was crackling, Liu Man'er stood up, opened the pot, scooped out water from it, put it on the water rack, put the handkerchief in, and then called Ye Yuan to come over and wash his face.

Ye Yuan said, "You are so kind to me."

"Of course, you are mine, and I treat you as well as I do." Liu Man'er laughed.

Ye Yuan has never heard of this kind of argument, and he thinks it makes sense.

"Didn't you say it would take six or seven days to come back? Why did you come back so soon? Is Ye Feng all right?" Liu Man'er asked casually while walking upstairs with a lamp.

"He's a big boy, I found him an inn and let him settle down by himself." Ye Yuan said casually.

After hearing this, Liu Man'er said helplessly: "Well, the merit test is a big deal. If you don't accompany him, and he has rarely been to the county seat, if something happens, I would have known I had gone."

"He doesn't even know I'm back, so I'll just go there tomorrow morning." Ye Yuan was also a little helpless, "Besides, he is going to grow up too, why are you worrying so much? We can fight the enemy."

"Then there was nothing you could do back then. Now that you have finally come back, you should take good care of them. As the saying goes, a good elder brother is a father." Liu Man'er said with a smile.

Although Ye Feng is almost 14 years old, in her opinion, he is still a child after all, if his family members are not around, there is no way, if not, it is according to his heart to accompany him.

"Don't talk about this, I went to the county to buy the candied fruit for you, I put it on the table for you, you remember to eat it tomorrow morning, then I may leave first, so I won't call you." Ye Yuan kept holding the fruit in his hand. A small bundle was placed on the table.

"Okay, then will you come back tomorrow night?" Liu Man'er asked.

"Tomorrow's matter, let's talk about it tomorrow, sleep." Ye Yuan blew out the candle.

As a result, Ye Yuan left early and returned late for several days in a row. On the sixth day, Ye Qing had just finished his exams. He originally wanted to go to the county town, but he was pulled back by Ye Yuan. When he returned home, he was quite resentful. Liu Man'er thought he had failed the exam.

"Feng'er, are the exam questions difficult?"

"It's not difficult."

"Then why do you seem unhappy?" Liu Man'er frowned, "Could it be that someone bullied you?"

"No one bullies me." Ye Feng shook his head.

"Oh, that's good. If someone bullies you, just tell your elder brother that he has great strength, and let him beat that person secretly." Liu Man'er said with a smile.

But Ye Feng's unhappiness was only because he wanted to stay in the county for one more day and look around with his classmates. Unfortunately, he was brought back by his elder brother.

After Ye Feng passed the exam, the whole family began to wait anxiously. A few days later, when the results came down, the head of the village came to announce the good news in person, saying that Ye Feng had passed the exam, and from then on, he could be regarded as a student.

This was a great joy in the countryside. Although Fang didn't want to be extravagant, he still specially invited his relatives and some acquainted villagers to have a meal together, which was considered joyful.

As soon as the banquet was spread out, a few uninvited guests came over. Ye Yuan was entertaining guests in the courtyard. After these people came in, they saw Ye Yuan and said, "Ye Yuan, there is a big happy event at home, why don't you invite some of our brothers?"
