Chapter 185 Chapter 185
As a bystander, Mingyue found that their attitude towards the original owner was indeed too harsh.

Also, according to Chen Xiucai's temperament, he is actually not the kind of person who accepts his fate once he fails the ranking. Why did he return to his hometown so readily?
If Chen Xiucai and his wife knew the truth and did it on purpose, how pitiful and ridiculous the original owner would be.

Whether it's her biological parents or adoptive parents, they are all plotting against her, and no one in this world has ever treated her sincerely.

Having said that, even the surrounding villagers' homes, Mingyue dare not go to ask for shelter now.

One reason is that they are afraid that the person behind the scenes will act viciously, and will kill innocent people without thinking to achieve their goals.

The second reason is that they are afraid that the Zhou family will be shameless and snatch the money back. It was the Zhou family who were stunned by Mingyue's words before, so they took out the money so easily. Mingyue is afraid that they will give up the money after they react. Open your face to grab money.

Right now, she is a weak woman with a cold and a sick daughter, so she is really no match for the Zhou family.

As for going to the county seat, Zhoujia Village is more than ten miles away from the county seat, and it has been raining now, and Mingyue has long been dizzy, and he really doesn't have the strength to carry the child to the county seat.

Fortunately, there is no unparalleled road, and when Mingyue was thinking about where to go, she saw the door plaque of the ancestral hall at the head of Zhoujia Village, and her eyes lit up instantly.

The people in Zhoujia Village are all ancestors, and everyone in the village has relatives, so this ancestral hall is also funded by the villagers. People in this era believe in the blessings of their ancestors, and there is always no shortage of sesame oil candles and offerings in the ancestral hall.

Right now, everyone in the village is hiding from the rain in their houses, Mingyue blinked her eyes, and with Zhou Pandi in her arms, she quickly pushed open the gate of Zhou's ancestral hall, ducked in and closed the door again.

In the ancestral hall, there are memorial tablets for the ancestors of the old Zhou family, and there is a plate of fresh peaches on the lower table, and two candles that are about to burn out are lit.

If ordinary people were faced with so many tablets, they might feel a little guilty in their hearts.

But when Mingyue thought about what the old Zhou family did, she felt flustered or embarrassed, which was also the emotion of the Zhou family's ancestors towards her.

Mingyue had just found a futon in the ancestral hall to sit down, and her mind was dizzy from match to match, when she heard Zhou Pandi in her arms, making a kitten-like voice, "Mother, mother, Cold, I, I'm cold..."

Only then did she realize that the two of them were still wearing wet clothes, no wonder she also felt chilly.

Mingyue looked around, but she couldn't see anything that could be used to warm up. Her eyes swept over the tablets above, and finally landed on the two futons on the ground.

After a while, a small fire was ignited in the ancestral hall. Mingyue took off Zhou Pandi's clothes, wrung out most of the moisture with her hands, and made a simple clothes hanger to dry beside the fire. Put brother Zhou Pan beside the fire to warm up.

And she herself took the bowl of peaches, went outside to get a bowl of water, and dipped the handkerchief in her arms to cool Zhou Pandi's forehead.

As for her own body, thanks to the years of hard work by the original owner over the years, she has also cultivated a strong physique. After sitting down and warming up by the fire for a while, Mingyue actually felt better.

After eating two peaches, Mingyue felt even more energetic.

In the final analysis, most of the reason why the original owner was dizzy was because he was hungry and anxious.

Just because she had nothing to do for several years after giving birth to her daughter, the original owner's status in the old Zhou's family was too low, and even the cow in the family was more expensive than her.

The cows in the family can still be full. The original owner is often ridiculed by the mother-in-law before eating two chopsticks, saying that she has the nerve to eat so much if she can’t lay eggs. The original owner can only stop the chopsticks and say that he is full. up.

It's already afternoon after today's tossing, the original owner didn't eat a few mouthfuls of breakfast, and didn't eat lunch, his stomach was empty and he got caught in the rain, isn't he about to suffer?
Mingyue shook her head lightly, she would have to leave Zhoujia Village with her children when the rain was less severe, and also had to leave this small county town.

Now that the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, it is not a good thing.

So she has to turn passive into active, turn from the bright place to the dark place, so that those people can't find her trace, and when she has the strength to protect herself, she will kill her back.

Now, just wait and see when the rain will stop.

And this rain fell in the evening, the sky was completely dark, and the rain gradually became smaller.

At the moment, the country road is slippery and wet, the sky is dark and the wind is particularly strong, it is not suitable for walking at all.

Mingyue fed Zhou Pandi some water, thought it over carefully, and decided to rest for a night and leave early tomorrow.

*
Zhou family.

When it was getting dark, the rain gradually subsided, and the Zhou family's father and son who were working outside rushed back.

As early as a few days ago, everyone knew about Miss Wang and Zhou Chengwen, and they had already discussed to drive Chen Mingyue and her daughter out.

After returning home, they didn't see Chen Mingyue and Zhou Pandi. Zhou's father and son thought that the matter had been settled, but in the end, they heard the truth from their own daughter-in-law like a bolt from the blue.

"30 taels of silver, that's all of our family's belongings, is it true that Chen Mingyue took it away?"

"I think you've really lost your mind. With Chen Mingyue's weak temper, she must have just threatened her. Why did you panic and ask your mother to give her money? Why didn't you know how to stop her?" ?”

"No, where is Chen Mingyue? We have to get this money back. This woman is really not a thing. She looks easy to bully, but she is still such a thief in her heart."

"It's true Cheng Wen, why did he marry such a daughter-in-law? Fortunately, Miss Wang is not like this Chen Mingyue. When he and Miss Wang get married in the future, we can also enjoy the glory..."

The same conversation was going on in several rooms of the Zhou brothers, and after a while, the brothers approached Zhou Chengwen by coincidence.

As soon as Zhou Chengwen saw them, he knew they were here for money.

In fact, he has come back to it now, and he doesn't know why Chen Mingyue led him away just now. He knew that Chen Mingyue would be the best to bully, and what she said must have been to scare him.

So when the elder brother and the younger brothers mentioned that they wanted to get the money back, Zhou Chengwen nodded without thinking, "Well, let's go to Chen's house together to find Chen Mingyue."

The brothers of the Zhou family all laughed when they heard this, and complimented Zhou Chengwen that he was going to marry a lady from a rich family, and that the future would definitely be bright.

When Zhou Chengwen heard what his brothers said, his face was full of pride.

He felt that the biggest mistake in his life was that he took a fancy to Chen Mingyue's face and married him back home.

If Chen Mingyue hadn't delayed him, he would have married a lady in the county town long ago, and became an official with the influence of a rich family.

Fortunately, it is now corrected.

It was not too late for the five brothers of the Zhou family to come to the neighboring Chenjia Village with torches and knock on the door of Chen Xiucai's house.
