Farmhouse life after traveling back to ancient times

In the quiet night, the four children slept side by side on the bed in the inner room, while Wu Sanmei and Cheng Suying sat on the stools in front of the door and chatted.

"But have you really thought it through?" Cheng Suying asked her.

When she asked this, Wu Sanmei was a little confused.

"I don't know if I'm thinking about it or not. I just thought that if you hadn't saved me today, and I had died all of a sudden, who knows, the children would have suffered greatly."

Wu Sanmei, who usually relied on her size and strength to act arrogantly, was choked up when she spoke about this.

"You don't know, he's a man, he's stronger than me, he just picked up the bench and smashed it on my head without blinking an eye."

"Seeing me fall to the ground, he showed no pity at all and just took the money from me, not caring that it was enough to feed a few people tomorrow..."

"Now that she hasn't come to look for me, I'm afraid she's having fun in some den of whores somewhere."

"My younger sister's father passed away early. When he was alive, he was relatively good to me. But nothing can overcome his parents." Cheng Suying also smiled sadly.

"I thought that after leaving Ci'an Hall and marrying him, I would have my own family."

"I just don't know what home is in this man's mind?"

"Tsk, I'm different from you." Wu Sanmei sneered.

"My parents think I'm ugly, so it's good enough that there's a man who wants me. They hope I die in a man's house so I won't bring trouble to them when I go back."

Cheng Suying refused.

"Why do you call me a troublemaker? You have hands and feet, and you are strong and healthy. Many women in our workshop cannot do the work, but you do it all."

"Even if I earn money, it's only a little less than men..."

Before she finished, Wu Sanmei interrupted her: "What do you mean by a little less? I earn more than my husband now."

Wu Sanmei waved her hand and said, "What's the point of earning a lot? I'll still be beaten by him when I go back."

Cheng Suying was inexplicably angry and said angrily, "If he earns a lot but still gets beaten, then I don't want him. Are all men in the world extinct except him?"

"So what if I don't have a man? Look, I'm living well with my little sister."

Wu Sanmei glared at her and sneered, "If you hadn't met Madam Du and Madam An, you wouldn't know how you would be doing now. Don't brag."

"Yes, it's because I met Madam Du and Madam An that I can live such a comfortable life now. But don't you also work in their workshops?"

Cheng Suying was so angry that her voice got louder. Thinking of the child sleeping in the room, she lowered her voice and said:

"Mrs. Du also said that day that even if the sisters in the workshop were bullied, as long as they came to her, she would definitely take care of it."

"But if you don't have the intention to change, then no one can help you."

Wu Sanmei hesitated after hearing this: "Did Madam Du really say that?"

"Of course it's true." Cheng Suying said firmly.

Wu Sanmei lowered her head, her eyes fixed on the ground.

"How about I go find Madam Du and ask her tomorrow?"

She asked Cheng Suying tentatively.

Cheng Suying rolled her eyes at her and said unhappily, "Why are you asking others about your own affairs?"

"If you have thought it through and don't want to go back with that man, she will support you and keep you here. If you don't live up to your expectations and insist on going back to get beaten, can Madam Du stop you?"

Wu Sanmei nodded after hearing this, saying that this was the truth.

"I will stay with the child for a few days, but it will cause you a lot of trouble."

Wu Sanmei said this with true feelings.

Thinking about what I did in order to drive Cheng Suying away, I really want to slap myself in the face when I think about it now.

"If I had chased you away at that time, I'm afraid I would be dead now."

She couldn't help but sigh.

Cheng Suying sighed slightly and smiled.

"It's all in the past, why bother talking about it. Besides, if you hadn't brought my case to Madam Du, I wouldn't have had the chance to be a doctor again."

"I am afraid that I will be busy carrying these jars and cans with my sisters every day, or arguing over how much salt is appropriate for a jar."

Cheng Suying slowly stood up, holding onto the door frame, and smiled at Wu Sanmei, "Everything is determined by fate. Meeting the ladies from Wenyuefang shows that we are still lucky, but we should cherish our blessings."

Wu Sanmei nodded in agreement, but after lying down, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

The next morning, he appeared in front of Cheng Suying with two swollen dark circles under his eyes, which scared her.

"You didn't sleep all night?" Cheng Suying exclaimed.

Wu Sanmei was unhappy.

"That's right. Although what you said makes sense, I am still very worried."

"What are you worried about? Are you worried that the man can't live without you?" Cheng Suying sarcastically said to her without any hesitation.

"Hey, what nonsense are you talking about?" Wu Sanmei's face twisted into a ball.

"I was thinking about when to take out the money I hid..."

When Cheng Suying heard her words, she knew they were not sincere, so she ignored her and called the children over to comb their hair and wash their faces one by one.

After Wu Sanmei finished her meal, she was sent to work by her mother.

Cheng Suying grew up in Ci'an Hall and was used to taking care of children.

Wu Sanmei's child is older than Cheng Xiaomei's. Growing up in such a family environment, he has learned to live by the wishes of others since he was young.

He did everything Cheng Suying said and did it well, so Cheng Suying praised him repeatedly.

"Okay, I was wondering why you money-losing bastards disappeared, and now it turns out you are here."

While handling her daily chores in an orderly manner, Cheng Suying heard a man outside beating and scolding a child in a rough voice, so she hurried out to see what was going on.

"Hey, man, why are you beating my child here?"

As soon as Cheng Suying went out, she saw several children huddled together and hiding behind Cheng Xiaomei.

Although Cheng Xiaomei was also afraid, she still stood in front of her sisters with her chest puffed out to block them.

The man didn't want to hit other people's children, so he held his hands up for a long time without putting them down.

Here, he saw a neatly dressed and well-mannered woman coming out of a room filled with the smell of medicine. He knew she was a person of status in this workshop, so he did not dare to act rashly.

"Who are you? You broke into our workshop and beat up our children, but you want us to hand you over to the authorities for justice?"

Cheng Suying spoke softly and calmly, but her words made the man's heart skip a beat.

For ordinary people like him, the thing he fears most is meeting an official.

The gate of the yamen faces south. Don't come in if you don't have money.

Not to mention that he had heard that Wenyuefang made money like water, even his lazy wife took home a lot of money every month.

What's more, we are not in the right this time.

Even though he was beating his own child, wasn't this happening in someone else's territory?

He smiled and said: "This lady is polite. My name is Li Daniu, but I am the biological father of these three children. This..."

"I had an argument with their mother yesterday, and I went out in a huff. When I came back I found the children were missing. I heard from the neighbor that they were in this workshop, so I came here to look for them."
