Reborn Concubine's Wife

Chapter 109: Peanut Curd (3)
When Zheng Wan saw him, she looked at him curiously.When she saw his eyes cast towards him, those lake-like eyes made her heart skip a beat.His face slowly turned red.

When Zheng Ru saw his eyes, she knew he was a half-hu and half-han.This kind of person is not only looked down upon in the Han area, but also in the Hu area.With just one glance, she felt that her eyes were dirty.

Not long after the twin sisters waited, Zheng Ruo and Zheng Yu came down from the attic.

Hearing the sound of tapping and tapping going downstairs, Shi Yue's eyes seemed to be glued to Zheng Ruo's body, and he couldn't leave for a moment.Seeing this, Zheng Wan was inexplicably angry!

Why, in the eyes of these gentlemen, there is only Zheng Ruo, this humble concubine!

When the three of them met for the first time, Zheng Ruo carefully looked at their expressions.When passing by Shi Yue, she paused and said, "The food you make is delicious."

Shi Yue was ecstatic in his heart, "It's just pea curd, if the girl likes it, I'll make it next time."

Zheng Ruo thanked with a smile.

It was too hot, this time Zheng Ruo did not hold a banquet in the yard, but invited them into the main room.Entering the hall, the four of them were seated as the guest of honor.Liu Xu immediately served tea to the four of them neatly.It has been nearly half a month since he came back from the county guard's mansion, and he has not seen the twin sisters. Only when they saw each other today, did they know what Zheng Yu meant by yellow and thin.The cheeks of the twins are thin, and the original rosiness is gone, and the whole body is thin and there is not much flesh.They are still the masters, if those servants, servants, I am afraid that they will be starving and only skinny.

Zheng Ruo's eyes fell on them, but there was a moment of blankness in his eyes.In the last life, after experiencing this severe drought, the Patriarch sold many of his servants, and even exchanged some valuable things in the clan for food, so he survived the famine.She vaguely remembered that her elder brother was dying and her father was sick.She was the only weak woman left in the family, without food for many days. Seeing that there was no more food, her father and elder brother were about to die.After thinking about it, she still went to ask the Patriarch, begging him to donate a bucket of rice.However, that day she knelt in the courtyard under the scorching sun for a whole day, but she still didn't see the Patriarch's face. Later, she fainted from the heat, and she was still crying and brought her back to the small courtyard.Without food, my father and elder brother started a hunger strike, saying that they wanted to leave the only food in the family to her.She cried and refused, and went on a hunger strike with them, so that the whole family could advance and retreat together.Unexpectedly, at night, taking advantage of her unpreparedness, father and elder brother committed suicide one after another.In the end, there was still food left, and she survived on the food her father and brother bought with their lives.

"Ah Ruo?" Zheng Yu called softly.

Zheng Ruo was brought back to her senses by her cry, and only then did she notice the strange expressions on their faces.Now that she has food, her eldest brother's leg and father's illnesses have gradually improved, and the situation in the previous life will never happen again.Gathering her mind, she looked at the twins and asked, "The two elder sisters go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so I don't know why they came to find Ah Ruo?"

How could the twins fail to hear Zheng Ruo's faint sarcasm?Ever since Wang Jiulang brought her back from the county guard's mansion, they had been afraid that Wang Jiulang would come to trouble them, especially after Mrs. Liu was punished and severely punished, the two of them stayed behind closed doors.However, today the two of them came here at the order of their mother.Enduring it, Zheng Ru pulled Zheng Wan, who was irritable and her eyes were already flaming, and said softly, "Ah Ruo, we really came here for something."

Zheng Ruo looked at them with a light smile, as if she had seen through their purpose.

"What's the matter?" Zheng Ruo took the fan from Liu Xu and shook it.It was too hot.

The room was a bit stuffy, Zheng Wan was ridiculed by her again and again, her forehead was already sweating, she had listened to Madam Liu's words, and planned to talk to her, but when she thought about it, the person in front of her was originally following behind her. The concubine daughter who was handled by me, but now I want to beg her in a low voice, and I feel a little uncomfortable.At that moment, she snorted coldly and turned around.Even Zheng Ru secretly pulled her sleeve to signal her, but she ignored it.

Seeing Zheng Ruo, the smile on his face deepened.

In fact, Zheng Ru didn't feel much better than Zheng Wan, but no one knew Zheng Wan's temper better than her.She took a few deep breaths, and said slowly, "Seventh sister, since your father brought you to our house, my father has always fed you with good food and drink."

Zheng Ruo's expression did not change, she looked at her quietly and asked her to continue talking.

At the beginning, Zheng Ru spoke more and more smoothly.

"Seventh sister, you and I are one family. Although your family has produced five clothes, you can't write two Zheng Lai. Now that the once-in-a-hundred-year famine has been caught up by us, we should help each other in the same boat." It is. We can only get through this famine if we work together, don't you think?"

Zheng Ruo had roughly understood what she meant, but her face gradually showed a ignorant look, showing a puzzled expression.

Zheng Ru thought that she had already said this, but Zheng Ruo was still unmoved.I have only had one dry meal these days, and tea is strictly restricted.Having said such a long paragraph, I was actually a little out of breath.On the other hand, Zheng Ruo on the opposite side had a rosy face, and Liu Xu added water to her bowl without any scruples, as if she didn't know how severe the water shortage is in the city.

But who told them to be protected by Wang Jiulang?I heard that he would deliver food every day. What's even more annoying is that in the whole Wubao, there is a well in their yard for some reason, and it hasn't dried up yet.

Seeing that she had no intention of speaking for a long time, Zheng Ru felt that she was really sick to death.To be honest, she really didn't want to bow her head to this humble concubine who used to follow her behind like a maid.But……

"Ah Ruo, there is not much food in the mansion now..."

"Well, who would have thought that this year would be a year of severe drought? I heard that there is no market for grain on the market." Zheng Ruo nodded and said.

Zheng Ru gritted her teeth, feeling that she had already said this, but she was still indifferent.Did you not understand it, or did you just ignore it?
