Chapter 6

Zhou Yongnian responded, but Du Yao didn't say anything, and he didn't continue to ask.

The family ate with gusto, and the atmosphere was fairly harmonious.However, there was a disappointing curse coming from the yard, a woman's sharp voice.

"Zhou Fang, come out! And your daughter who lost money! You have to give me an explanation for this matter no matter what!"

"Are you in trouble again?" Zhou Fang immediately thought of Du Yao, and poked her on the head and cursed. "You girl, can't you let me relax? If you don't make trouble for a day, will you die?"

Du Yao hid her head aside, the voice outside sounded familiar to her, but she smiled at Zhou Fang. "Mother, go out and have a look for yourself. Maybe it's you and not me who caused trouble outside."

"Is that how you talk to your mother?" Zhou Fang couldn't help raising her voice, dragging Du Yao outside.Many people in the Du family wanted to see the jokes and excitement and followed them out.

Zhou Yongnian was worried about Du Yao, so he also walked out with the little bun in his arms.

Standing in the yard was a somewhat familiar woman, about forty or fifty, with a short stature, and next to her was a fat son in his twenties, but he was simple-minded, and when he saw Du Yao coming out, he yelled "Daughter-in-law, drooling" Keep flowing out.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that a woman's child is a fool.

Du Yao's resentment towards Zhou Fang was even deeper, so she actually betrothed her original body to an idiot who couldn't speak well for the sake of thirty catties of rice?Fortunately, Zhou Yongnian cut off the beard halfway, otherwise she would have to fall into the fire pit.

"Ms. Li, why are you here?" Seeing the woman, Zhou Fang immediately came over with a smile on her face, "What's the wind today? Not only my Yaoyao came back, but you also came here by yourself."

"Mother, how could it be a coincidence? Aunt Li knew that I was coming back, so she brought her son here to see me at Du's house." Du Yao couldn't understand Zhou Fang's fake appearance, so she just said it all .

"Yes, I just came to the door in person when I knew Du Yao was coming back." The woman added, putting her hands on her waist by the way.

"You clearly said before that you gave Yaoyao to Du Yong after taking thirty catties of rice from our family. But you took the rice and turned around and married Yaoyao to someone else. Is there anyone like you?"

Aunt Li also approached Zhou Fang a few times, but she shied away because she had no money.Today she heard that when Du Yao returned home, she brought a lot of things home, including twenty catties of rice alone.

She also understood her meaning very well, she must give Zhou Fang an explanation, anyway, she would not go back empty-handed.

"Mother, you really took Aunt Li's white rice and asked me to marry Du Yong?" Although the last time the woman made trouble, Du Yao would believe it only from Zhou Fang's mouth. His biological mother was sold to a fool.

Aunt Li also looked at Zhou Fang confidently.

"Yaoyao, you're getting old, let alone marrying daughters of the same age, children can go to the fields to help with work." Zhou Fang didn't dare to answer directly, but her eyes dodged slightly to avoid the sharpness in Du Yao's eyes.

"I'm doing this for your own good too. You see, you're living with Zhou Yongnian, aren't you having a good time? You can still help the family a little bit."

She is doing well now, but what does it have to do with Zhou Fang?
"Then you accepted the white rice from Mrs. Li's house and asked me to marry a fool, and it was for my own good? Then you turned back and sent me to Zhou Yongnian, and it was also for my own good?"

She can really talk nonsense with her eyes open.

"What are you talking about? Our Du Yong is such an idiot?" Aunt Li rushed up to protect her calf. "If you don't get married, I can ask someone else to be his wife. Also, you owe our family [-] catties of white rice, and you can't miss any of it!"

"I made it clear to you last time, whoever takes your white rice, you ask for it." Du Yao stepped back, looking at Aunt Li quietly.

"What are you talking about, girl, you just pushed me into the pit of fire!" Zhou Fang was anxious.

Du Yao is her own daughter, isn't she turning her elbows?
"But mother, if you asked me to marry Du Yong, wouldn't you also push me into the fire pit?" Du Yao replied lightly, she was different from her original body, and she didn't like this kind of mother who sold her daughter. I don't even want to go through such a muddy water.

"How can you talk to mother like this?" Zhou Fang was also anxious.

"Forget it, you and Auntie Li should settle this account yourself. It's getting late, we almost have to go back." Du Yao retreated to Zhou Yongnian's side, and hugged the little bun who didn't know what happened. Get up and squeeze gently.

Things are terrible, and only by pinching Xiao Baozi's face can he relieve the depression in his heart a little.

"Yes, you must return the thirty catties of white rice to me today, otherwise the matter will not be over." Aunt Li hurried to Zhou Fang and insisted that Zhou Fang honor it.

Zhou Fang shirked the excuses, saying that the rice had been eaten up, and the things Du Yao brought back had to be saved for the winter.

"Let's go." Seeing that Zhou Yongnian was still standing still, Du Yao urged him slightly. "Now you know that you shouldn't prepare those things for my natal family? You leave the good things to their group of white-eyed wolves. Why don't we keep the improved food for ourselves?"

When she came out just now, the old lady of the Du family who had been standing by had been trying to persuade her. "Yaoyao, family and everything are prosperous. Although she did not do this right, she is your mother after all. What is the difficulty for the family?"

She really doesn't hurt her back when she stands and talks.

Seeing Zhou Yongnian's hesitant expression, Du Yao just sighed. "Why, you want to persuade my family to reconcile everything? Continue to maintain a harmonious relationship with the mother who sold her daughter?"

Although Du Yao was smiling, there was a touch of desolation at the corner of her mouth.

"will not."

Zhou Yongnian replied two words shallowly, but it warmed Du Yao's heart.

He understands her.

It's not like the rest of the Du family, who don't know the reason of the matter, and blindly accuse her of not being magnanimous.

Seeing that Du Yao's expression softened slightly, Zhou Yongnian nodded slowly.

"If you don't want to, then you don't have to go back to your mother's house in the future, and we can live our own little life in the mountains."

"I'll listen to you." Du Yao readily agreed, but put the unhappy things behind her and continued to count with her fingers. "I picked about three catties of mushrooms yesterday. I see that there are very few of them sold in the market, so they should fetch a good price."

Speaking of making money, Du Yao is in a great mood.

"I can also take advantage of the good weather recently, go to the mountains to hunt more prey, and then sell it for money, so I can buy some things at home."

"Okay." Du Yao agreed without hesitation, but turned to pondering, hunting and breeding depended largely on the weather, everything was easy to say in a good year, but when the weather was bad, they were stretched everywhere, and had to have other livelihoods.
