I became a farmer's wife, and the cruel and powerful officials forced me to give birth to a chi

Since moving into the ancestral home, she has been sleeping in the same bed with Jing Qishan in order to take care of him.

I had originally planned to sleep in separate rooms once he was almost well, but Chun Ge moved in again, so there were only two rooms in this ancestral house, and a separate shed that was used to raise chickens and ducks.

If she wants to sleep in a separate room, she needs to build another room in the yard.

Forget it. Jing Qishan won’t be well for a while anyway. When he gets better, she will let Chun Ge come and sleep with Jing Qishan, and she will sleep in Chun Ge’s room.

Li Yujiao was so sleepy that she fell asleep again in a daze.

What she didn't know was that Jing Qishan had already stood up.

He pretended not to be able to walk during the day and could only practice walking secretly at night.

Anyway, Li Yujiao is sleeping so soundly that she won’t notice.

He didn't go out, but just paced around the room. Last night he could only walk four or five steps, but tonight he could walk ten steps.

Every step he took had to be very hard.

And hold on to the wall.

Sweat kept dripping down his forehead. If it were someone else, he would definitely hope that there was someone around to help him up.

But he didn't want to alarm Li Yujiao and Chun Ge.

If they knew he could walk, she would definitely sleep in a separate room from him.

This woman, Li Yujiao, carried him around every day, just like a doctor serving a patient, and she had absolutely no feelings a woman should have for a man.

He was so angry every time.

So he could only practice walking secretly by himself.

As it was the middle of the night, there were no lights on in the room, and his movements were clumsy, his hand accidentally touched a teacup she used to drink water, and the cup fell to the ground and broke!

He was startled and quickly looked at Li Yujiao on the bed.

In the darkness of the night, Li Yujiao simply turned over, and then the snoring continued.

He was relieved.

Fortunately, he didn't wake her up, otherwise he wouldn't have to bother her to hold him tomorrow.

He didn't know whether he liked her or not, but he just felt that it was nice to have a woman around him.

He doesn't have much in this life, so he'll grab whatever he can get.

……

The next day, when Li Yujiao woke up, she saw Jing Qishan sleeping soundly beside her.

She had already baked today's bread, and when she returned to the room she saw that Jing Qishan was still asleep.

Chun Ge also finished his morning work and prepared to go to school.

"Sister-in-law, big brother hasn't woken up yet? I can't serve him if he falls asleep." Chun Ge seemed very apologetic.

Li Yujiao smiled and said, "Then you go to school first. I'll take care of him later. It's not a big deal."

When the sun rose, Jing Qishan finally woke up.

When I sat up, I heard Li Yujiao chopping wood outside the yard. It was a very rhythmic crackling sound.

He felt at ease with her busying around him.

But he won't help.

He's not well yet.

"Li Yujiao!" Jing Qishan called her.

Li Yujiao put down the axe and came in, with beads of sweat on her forehead and her little face red.

Jing Qishan felt that Li Yujiao had completely changed. When she first came in, she was still a fair-skinned young lady who was weak and unable to take care of herself.

Although she is still slim, she looks much more fit now.

She usually pays attention to sun protection. She wears a straw hat when she is under the sun and applies aloe vera water on her face before going to bed.

So although her face is not as white as it was at the beginning, it is not very tanned either, and has a very healthy rosy color.

"You finally woke up. You slept well in the past two days." Li Yujiao spoke to him in a doctor's tone again.

Jing Qishan said: "I want to go to the bathroom, please carry me to the toilet."

Li Yujiao knew that he didn't like using the potty recently, so she had to carry him to the toilet.

When she hugged him, she smelled sweat on him, and she couldn't help asking, "Did you sweat last night?"

Jing Qishan had thought of his story long ago. He said, "A mosquito flew in last night. I sat up and chased it away for a long time. I was sweating a little."

Li Yujiao did not doubt him and just said, "There are mosquitoes even through the mosquito net? We need to burn some incense at night!"

"Okay!" Jing Qishan hugged her tighter.

……

Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Yujiao and Wang Erhua finally made the hot and sour noodles.

Wang Erhua obviously developed a deep affection and dependence on Li Yujiao.

Especially after the hot and sour noodles were made, Wang Erhua admired Li Yujiao even more.

"How did you come up with the idea of ​​making this?" Wang Erhua slurped the hot and sour noodles, sweating profusely.

Li Yujiao said: "I've seen this method in a book before. Do you think it tastes good?"

“Delicious, very delicious!”

Chun Ge also thought it was delicious.

Li Yujiao served Jing Qishan another portion and asked him to sit down and eat.

Jing Qishan took a bite. In his previous life, when he was traveling in the southwest region, he had eaten the sour soup fish there. It was sour and spicy and very delicious. He missed it very much after he came back, but he could never eat it again.

This hot and sour noodle tastes different from the sour soup fish. The hot and sour noodle has a numbing feeling and tastes particularly good.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Li Yujiao asked Jing Qishan.

Jing Qishan said: "Not bad."

"If you say it's okay, then it's delicious!"

Jing Qishan: ...

When did he say such a thing?

But there seems to be nothing wrong with this statement.

Wang Erhua also wanted to make money, so she asked Li Yujiao: "Jiao Jie, can you take me with you to sell hot and sour noodles? I can work for you like Chun Ge did."

Li Yujiao just needed a helper. She felt that although Wang Erhua was a little sensitive and a bit of a green tea fan at times, she was still quite capable.

She said, "Come and help me sell hot and sour noodles and bread. I'll pay you two taels of rice every month, and I'll teach you how to make bread!"

When Wang Erhua heard about making bread, she quickly said, "Okay, don't worry, if you teach me how to make bread, I will never tell others how to make bread."

Li Yujiao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you tell others. There are many people who know how to make bread now."

"That's right. My eldest cousin, your eldest sister-in-law from the Jing family, and her two sisters-in-law set up a stall to sell bread for more than a month and lost ten taels of silver! Because of this, my eldest cousin and your mother-in-law quarreled every day.

Your mother-in-law scolded her, saying that she didn't have the ability but still tried to set up a stall, and she lost all the money I had saved!

The eldest cousin's mother also scolded her: "How could I expect you to help your brother? If you are divorced by the Jing family, don't come back. Our family can't afford to lose this person!"

Li Yujiao was shocked: "So scary?"

Wang Erhua said: "So I will never steal your recipe and set up a stall. You can trust me, I am not cut out for business!"

……

Li Yujiao and Wang Erhua were making bread and selling hot and sour noodles at the same time.

The hot and sour noodle business is pretty good. New and novel things are always particularly attractive.

The young owner of the "Yue Lai" restaurant in the town heard that Li Yujiao was selling new products, so he came to taste them.

This young master Chen is quite impressive and is even accompanied by a servant.

The weather was a bit hot, so the servant was fanning him.

Master Chen was sweating profusely while eating. The spicy, fresh, fragrant, sour and oily but not greasy taste was swirling in his mouth. Even though he was sweating profusely, he couldn't stop eating and ate three bowls in a row.

"My dear, your hot and sour noodles are really delicious!" Young Master Chen gave her a thumbs up.

Li Yujiao knew that Young Master Chen had bad intentions.

Previously, her bread was cracked by the chef of Yuelai Restaurant. Not only that, but he also came up with various shapes, which resulted in fewer and fewer people coming to her bread stall.

Young Master Chen must have come here with this in mind.

Li Yujiao teased, "Then why don't you buy a few more bowls and go back to study how it's made?"

Young Master Chen didn't feel embarrassed. He ate while saying, "I have to buy a few more bowls. Food doesn't just belong to you. You can make it, and so can I, right?"

Li Yujiao thought to herself: Just do it, I know a lot of things. If you can figure out how to make hot and sour noodles, I will make snail noodles next time!

Young Master Chen said again, "My dear, I have a suggestion. Are you willing to listen to it?"

"you say!"

"I see that you are working in the wind and rain, and you have to take care of your husband who can't take care of himself. It's really hard. Why don't you come to my restaurant and be a cook? I can pay you eight taels a month."

When Wang Erhua, who was standing next to him, heard the eight taels wage, she almost dropped her jaw in shock.

The waiter in the restaurant only earned two taels of silver a month, but Master Chen offered him eight taels. This was definitely the highest-paying job in the entire Yong'an Town!

Li Yujiao was actually a little moved.

There were no disposable bowls in that era, so she not only had to wash the dishes, but also set up two small tables in the back for the guests to eat noodles.

As a result, the stalls take up more space, and the surrounding vendors obviously have complaints.

Moreover, the hot and sour noodles have a strong aroma, and the fragrance is everywhere, causing people who originally wanted to come here to eat tofu pudding to be unable to resist trying the hot and sour noodles after smelling the aroma.

The uncle who used to sell tofu pudding now has a grudge against her and has moved his stall far away from her.

"Young lady, please think about it carefully." Young Master Chen said with a smile.
