Farmhouse life after traveling back to ancient times

Today, Du Wenchan and Qiao'er came back a little late, and looked a little disheveled.

When Du Wenxiu asked about it, the two said nothing happened.

After a while, Cheng Suying also came, and only then did she realize that the old woman was causing trouble again today.

Cheng Suying was so angry that she wanted to go up and fight with her. If Du Wenchan and the other two hadn't held her back, she would have probably cracked the old woman's head open with a clay pot.

Her crazy look frightened the old woman, and she fled away, unable to have a few days of peace.

Seeing many new faces in the house, I couldn't help but ask curiously, and it turned out that they had bought someone.

Du Wenchan and Qiao'er washed and dressed again and came out. Du Wenxiu told them about the purchase of the person and asked Du Wenchan to come and see.

"I don't care about anyone. Everything is decided by my sister."

Du Wenchan couldn't help feeling shy when she mentioned that she would get married after completing her mourning period.

But after all, I will be using this person in the future. My sister has chosen him, so I have to keep an eye on him and make sure nothing happens later.

So he called someone over to take another look.

The man's name is Manshan, his wife's surname is Ke, and they have a daughter named Yinhong.

Normally, a girl of this age should have been sold off individually long ago, but Zhang Yapo felt sorry for the family and took them all in.

This saved Du Wenxiu a lot of trouble. He asked Du Wenchan about their past again. Du Wenxiu kept silent and waited to see how Du Wenchan would deal with it.

Du Wenchan sat aside, thought for a moment, and said:

"The person my sister and I chose must be good."

"But I will leave home and go to the capital. I'll see if you are willing to let me go. Don't argue about the hardship of leaving your hometown when the time comes."

Although she spoke softly, she had been in charge of the workshop for such a long time and had her own demeanor, so she was not looked down upon by the servant girl of the criminal official.

The few of them had already discussed it clearly before she returned home. Although this family did not look wealthy, they seemed to be kind people.

If I had stayed, I think life wouldn't have been too difficult.

After these days of wandering on the road and suffering hardships they had never experienced before, the Manshan family had already tempered their temper and pride.

Not to mention that my daughter is grown up. If she follows a bad man who has ambitions towards her, even if I stop him the first time, I may not be able to stop him the second time.

So Manshan knelt down and said:

"My dear, we are all used to working for the master and we know the rules. We followed the master to take up the post earlier and we have no regrets. Please rest assured, my dear."

Du Wenchan looked at her sister, only to see Du Wenxiu nodding with a smile, and she knew that what she had done was almost good and was recognized.

So the Manshan family stayed there, and when Du Wenchan got married, he became her companion.

Du Wenxiu pulled Qiao'er to the main room again. Qiao'er, who was watching the fun, looked at her in confusion.

"Today, three families stayed. I thought that you didn't have anything prepared for your wedding, so I wanted to give you a room, but I was afraid that your mother-in-law would be unhappy."

"Oh, sister-in-law, I am also the young lady of the Fan family, and I have my own servants around me." Qiao'er stamped her feet and smiled.

"If my sister-in-law sends someone over again now, my mother-in-law might even suspect that you are hinting that she is not good to me."

As he spoke, he pushed her out:

"Sister Chan is going to get married, her family has the conditions, and she earns a lot of money. Even if she has prepared everything, I won't be jealous."

"I want something. Now that my sister-in-law has given me the opportunity, I will go and earn it myself."

"Sister-in-law, how can I be like that short-sighted person who gets jealous when seeing others have something?"

Qiao Er lifted the curtain and came out. She saw Yue Niang, who was wearing a water-red silk dress with silver patterns, walking slowly towards the courtyard. She did not forget to say something:

"Sister-in-law, please don't think too much. If you spoil me too much, I will be despised by others."

"Oh my, what are you saying? Let me see who dares to look down on our sister Qiao'er?" Yue Niang came over, fanning herself, and said to them with a smile.

Du Wenxiu then told her about the new arrival in the family, but Yue Niang said:

"It should have been done earlier. But if you had known earlier today, you might have kept my brother and sister-in-law's family as well."

"What? Sister-in-law Qin is here?" A few days ago, Yue Niang invited her brother to come and live in the city and help her. She didn't expect that he would come today.

"I originally thought it would take a few days to arrive, but my sister-in-law was worried about the child, so the couple stayed at home overnight to pack for a few days, and then hurried over."

Du Wenxiu scolded her for not telling her so that she could bring people to help.

Yue Niang pointed at the busy courtyard and spat, "Don't talk nonsense. Look at all the people in the courtyard. Who looks free?"

Du Wenxiu laughed and said, "I just said it in vain, why do you take it seriously?"

Yue Niang was so angry that she came up to tickle her. Du Wenxiu dodged left and right, and Mrs. Fan was so anxious that she kept shouting at them not to fall.

The new arrival Yuan Xi came to help in the kitchen, and her hands and feet were as skillful as she was.

After a while, Chef Zou called for dinner. Du Wenxiu couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. She was too busy today and didn't even teach Chef Zou how to make a new dish.

Chef Zou smiled and said that he was going to make his specialty dish today for the owner to taste.

And with the help of Yuanxi and Cheng Xiaomei, the cooking efficiency is much higher, much better than when Du Wenxiu said he would come to help.

Today I made cold tofu skin, stir-fried lentils, Minister Jiang's tofu, red stewed eel, stewed chicken with mushrooms, and stir-fried shredded lamb. For a while, the whole yard was filled with the aroma of food.

He picked out a few light dishes and packed them into lunch boxes for Lu Sangui's family, then sent the dishes to the front yard. Fan Zhao and Fan Chengyi also came over from the next yard.

However, during the dinner, people talked about the fact that the emperor had opened a special examination, and in two days, Fan Chengyi would have to go to Beijing to take the exam.

Du Wenxiu couldn't help but look at him deeply, remembering what Lu Fanghai had said before.

I’m afraid it won’t be long before some bloody storm breaks out in the capital again.

And what kind of life will Erlang, who lives in the front yard, face?

The meal had just ended when several new women came to help clean up the leftovers on the table, which was much faster than before.

Suddenly Yue Niang ran to a corner, bent down with her back to the person, and started vomiting.

Du Wenxiu was startled and hurried over to ask, "What's wrong? Did you eat too much?"

Yue Niang bent over and dared not stand up straight. Du Wenxiu patted her back gently, which made her vomit again.

"Don't take pictures, it's so uncomfortable."

"Did you catch a cold? Or did you get heatstroke? Where did Madam Cheng go? Call her over to check." Du Wenxiu was panicked for a moment and looked for Cheng Suying with his neck stretched out.

It was Qiuyue who came up and replied that Madam Cheng had drunk a few more sips of ice water in the evening and was now going to the toilet.

After vomiting for a while, Yue Niang felt dizzy and stretched out her hand. Du Wenxiu hurried forward and helped her sit down.

She checked the temperature of her forehead and found it was normal, so she asked someone to bring her some warm water to rinse her mouth.

Just as he was getting anxious, Cheng Suying came back from the toilet. Du Wenxiu saw her from afar and waved to her to come quickly.
