First break up the relationship, then get rich, I can choose any handsome man in the world
Chapter 64: Throwing dirty water
Zhu Li wanted to use the five taels of silver from selling her body to buy clothes, but Ye Shian refused: "I said I'll pay today, you can come back later if you want to buy."
The brother and sister changed their clothes in the clothing shop, and then Ye Shian took them to Changning Village.
On the way, Yu Xiuying told Zhu Li about her family's current situation: "We also fled here, and we just settled down in Changning Village. We haven't built a house yet, so we have to put you two in trouble first."
Zhu Li held Ying'er in his arms. Her fever had subsided by now, but she was still very weak, so she lay in her brother's arms to rest.
"Madam, please don't say that. I am grateful to you and Miss for saving my sister, so how could I despise you?"
Ye Shian was driving the ox cart in front. Hearing the address of Madam and Miss, he spoke calmly: "We are new here too. Calling us Madam and Miss is really too conspicuous. For now, you should just call me by my name. As for my mother, just call her Auntie. Tell others that you and your brother are relatives who have come to seek refuge with us."
"It's all up to you, young lady."
A group of women were washing clothes by the river in Changning Village. When they saw Ye Shian driving the ox cart back, Sun couldn't help but curl her lips.
"These women are so bored. They went to the county town yesterday and went again today. I don't know why they go to the county town every day."
Feng's second wife was also washing clothes by the river. When she heard what Sun said, she looked up at the road. When she saw that it was the mother, her eyes narrowed.
"It's them. Sun, you have to be careful with your words. These women are not easy to deal with. If you mess with them, you'll be in trouble."
Sun turned around and looked at Feng's second wife: "Why, do you know them?"
Feng Er's wife looked around and saw some women from the village washing clothes not far away.
"Other families are fleeing and lack food and clothing, but this mother and daughter are living happily."
There was gossip, and Sun's eyes lit up immediately: "Second wife Feng, please tell me what's going on."
"What else could it be? The mother and daughter are beautiful, capable, and resourceful. Even if they are fleeing, they still have food and drink."
"I was saying that these women don't look ordinary. Their little daughter is so well fed and plump. Not to mention the children who escaped, even the children in our village are not as well taken care of as she is."
Feng Er's wife said "Aiya" and looked around: "Look at my mouth, don't go out and tell others, let alone say that I said it."
Sun patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person."
By the time Ye Shian and his group got home, it was already afternoon. Yinzhu hurriedly unloaded the meat from the ox cart. Zhu Li was also considerate: "Sister Yinzhu, let me do it."
Yinzhu didn't argue with him and took the newly bought wooden basin to the well to pump water.
Ying'er also wanted to help, but Yu Xiuying drove her away: "You are not fully recovered yet, go and rest."
Ying'er felt embarrassed, so Yu Xiuying could only show her demeanor as the head of the family and then she ran aside to rest.
Ying'er is only ten years old, but children in rural areas have to take charge of the family early. Just look at her posture, she doesn't look like a child. Since she can't work, she suggested to look after Ziyuan.
Yu Xiuying felt a little distressed: "You should get well soon. Only when you get well, I can hand Ziyuan over to you."
So Ying'er gave up.
Everyone worked together to wash and rinse, and it was much faster than yesterday.
After having breakfast, Liu took her son Sihai to Ye Shian's house, but Ye Shian's family had already gone to the county town, so she had to go there in vain.
She had no choice but to take her son back. In the afternoon, when the sun was about to set, Liu brought her son back again.
She could smell the aroma of meat from a long distance away in the yard. Liu sniffed hard and said, "This family really doesn't live that way. How much meat would it take to smell so good?"
Sihai looked unwilling: "Mom, why don't we go back."
"Why are you replying? You don't want a wife anymore."
"But you can't just lead me here like this."
"What do you know? I'm creating opportunities for you. You can come here often and help with some chores. This will let her know that you're good at making ends meet, and it will also help prevent others from getting there first."
When Liu arrived at the door, she was about to knock when the door was opened from the inside. Zhu Li went to the door to get firewood, but he didn't expect anyone to come.
When Liu saw a young man coming out, she was also stunned.
Zhu Li was the quickest to respond: "Who are you looking for?"
Liu stretched her neck to look inside, then pointed at Ye Shian who was working: "I'm looking for her."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to push Zhu Li away. Zhu Li did not bother with Liu and hurried to get firewood. There was a lot of meat waiting to be cooked in the yard. Ye Shian said that it might take until very late.
He knew that this was because he had wasted time.
When Liu came in, she went straight to the stove and said, "Mom, there's so much meat, can you finish it?"
Yinzhu was making a fire. When she looked up, she saw Liu reaching out to touch the freshly cooked meat. She quickly stopped her, "Hey, hey, hey, don't touch it."
"It's okay if I touch you, girl. It won't hurt you."
Yu Xiuying frowned: "Who are you?"
Liu introduced herself enthusiastically: "I am Liu, you must be Yu, and this is my son Sihai."
"Is there anything wrong, Liu?" Ye Shian was mixing mud. One stove was not enough, so she had to make another one.
"Girl, yesterday I heard you say that you are the only girls in your family. I thought that this is impossible, so I asked my son to come and help you. My son is tall and strong, so you can let him do any work you need."
Ye Shian sneered: "No need, our family's work can be done by our family members, and we don't need outsiders."
"What you said is wrong. What do you mean by outsiders? We are all from the same village. Sihai, don't just stand there. Go and help."
Seeing Sihai standing still, Liu winked at him, indicating that he should help Ye Shian mix the mud.
Sihai walked up to Ye Shian unwillingly: "Is there anything I can do?"
Ye Shian smiled and pointed to the stone nest beside her: "Help me move it out."
That stone nest must weigh at least 200 to 300 kilograms. How could Sihai move it alone? "This kind of stone nest is very heavy. One person can't move it. It takes two people."
As he spoke, he fixed his eyes on Zhu Li who was chopping wood: "Come here, let's work together to carry the stone nest out."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Shian came over. She washed her hands with clean water, then grabbed the edge of the stone nest with one hand and the bottom of the stone nest with the other hand. With a delicate shout, she actually lifted up the stone nest.
Then he strode out, and Sihai who was standing there was dumbfounded.
Not to mention him, even Liu, who had lived to such an old age, had never seen any woman with such great strength.
After placing the stone nest at the door, Ye Shian calmly returned to his original position and continued mixing the mud.
