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

Li Yujiao and Chun Ge took the ox cart of the village old man Niu to the nearby market.

This market is held on the third, sixth and ninth day of every month. There are three streets in total, and you can buy all the supplies you need for daily life here.

She first bought two buns, one for her and Chun Ge.

One copper coin can buy one bun, and two taels of silver are equal to two thousand copper coins. So, two taels of silver can buy two thousand buns.

Rice was a little expensive, costing five copper coins per pound, and buying twenty pounds cost her a hundred copper coins.

Pork cost ten copper coins a pound, so she bought ten pounds, planning to go home and dry it into bacon.

Vegetables and radishes were cheaper, one copper coin could buy two kilograms, and she bought more than ten kilograms.

Finally, she estimated based on these prices and concluded that two taels of silver could support one's life for more than a month if one lived frugally.

She also bought herself a pair of cloth shoes and two sets of clothes, otherwise she would have to wear her current worn-out shoes and clothes.

After buying these, she went to the Chinese medicine shop and bought some astragalus, red dates, wolfberry, codonopsis, etc.

She decided to perform surgery on Jing Qishan.

But Jing Qishan's surgery caused great damage, so he needed to be replenished in advance, otherwise she was afraid that he would not be able to hold on.

After buying things, she still had more than one or two taels of silver left.

Thinking that Jing Qishan was still at home, she brought Chun Ge back.

……

"Brother Chun, I'll give you ten copper coins. You can keep five for yourself and give five to your sister-in-law. Just tell your sister-in-law that this is my payment for your service."

Back at the ancestral home, Li Yujiao counted the copper coins for Chun Ge.

Chun Ge refused to accept it, "Sister-in-law, my mother said that you can't ask for rewards for doing something that requires only a little effort. This is greedy for small gains and will easily lead to big losses in the future."

"Brother Chun, listen, if you hadn't taken me to the market today, I wouldn't have been able to buy such good things. If you don't accept this little reward, I won't dare to bother you next time. And if your sister-in-law knows that I took you to the market, she will resent me. Aren't you worried that I will be scolded by your sister-in-law?"

After hearing this, Chun Ge had no choice but to take the ten copper coins.

Otherwise, my sister-in-law won’t dare to ask him for help next time.

Their conversation outside was heard clearly by Jing Qishan in the house.

He came back in just half a day.

In her previous life, she went to the market and couldn’t come back until dark.

After a while, Li Yujiao came in carrying a large bamboo basket.

She was the only one there, Chun Ge didn't come in.

She put down the big bamboo basket first, and then came to see him immediately.

"Have you been waiting for a long time? Go to the bathroom first, then drink some water and eat two buns!"

As she said that, she took the bedpan and placed it under him.

Then she went to get some water, wiped his body, gave him half a bowl of water, and then fed him some buns.

It turned out to be a bun filled with meat.

This woman is so kind?

Li Yujiao knew that he was doubting her, so she said, "I bought ten of these meat buns, and I ate them all, so I only have two left for you."

No wonder!

After he finished eating the meat bun, she carried him outside, boiled a pot of water with astragalus and red dates, and fed him half a bowl of water.

While feeding him water, he suddenly said, "I kind of miss the braised pork rice in Pingxiang."

Pingxiang was where he fought before.

Li Yujiao did not doubt him and just followed his words: "No matter what you want to eat, you have to keep your body healthy before eating it."

When Jing Qishan heard this, he thought to himself: She should not have been reborn.

Seeing how attentively she served him these past two days and how nice she was to Chun Ge, he thought that she was also reborn and came back to please him.

But she had no reaction at all when she heard the three words "braised pork rice".

Because in the previous life, before he ordered her to be boiled, he said: "Cook her into braised pork rice and feed it to the dogs!"

Li Yujiao never expected that feeding water would be a test, and she passed it unexpectedly.

However, his test is still ongoing.

"Did you go out shopping for clothes today?" he asked again.

Li Yujiao said: "I bought it, do you want to take a look?"

Jing Qishan said calmly: "It's up to you."

She bought new clothes definitely to seduce men, and they must be red. She did the same in her previous life. She bought red clothes with the money from cutting grass for pigs in the mountains.

Li Yujiao went into the house to try on new clothes.

Women, no matter which dynasty they were from, would definitely try on new clothes in front of people around them as soon as they bought them, and they were very eager to get other people's opinions.

Li Yujiao is no exception.

In this era, people usually bought a few feet of cloth and asked a tailor in the village to make it, but there were also ready-made clothes for sale, but there were fewer styles.

Li Yujiao only spent thirty copper coins on this outfit.

When she put it on to show Jing Qishan, Jing Qishan asked in surprise: "Why didn't you buy red?"

"Do women have to wear red?" Li Yujiao asked in confusion, "Or do you like red?"

Li Yujiao was wearing a khaki-colored coarse cloth dress. As a country woman, she chose khaki as the color was more resistant to dirt.

Jing Qishan stopped looking and turned away.

Because he found that even very ordinary country clothes, as long as the clothes were not torn or had no patches, could highlight Li Yujiao's waist very well.

When Li Yujiao saw that Jing Qishan didn't look at her, she thought he was a man who didn't understand romance and had no interest in her.

She took out another set of grey clothes and said, "This one is for you."

Jing Qishan was surprised.

"You're still buying it for me?"

"I'm afraid you'll wet your pants and then have nothing to change into." This is what Li Yujiao really said.

Jing Qishan sneered, "It is truly an honor for me."

Anyway, he was a paraplegic, so he would wear whatever she gave him to wear. If she dressed him in short shirts in winter and cotton jackets in summer like she did in her previous life, he would have no choice.

Seeing his arrogant look, Li Yujiao thought to herself, this treacherous minister really doesn't know what's good for him. His kindness is being treated like a donkey.

She left him and said, "Then I'll go into the house and clean up."

Jing Qishan was still lying on the bamboo chair outside.

A gadfly flew over from the river and landed on the tip of his nose.

He wanted to raise his hand to slap the gadfly to death, but he couldn't move.

He could only curse in his heart: You stinky gadfly, get out of here!

The gadfly landed on the tip of his nose, then crawled on it for a while, flapping its wings.

This thing will bite people and suck blood. After sucking blood, it will feel painful and itchy. He can't move and has to trouble others to scratch it for him.

Ever since he became paralyzed in bed, he always felt itchy all over his body, which was extremely uncomfortable.

He had no choice but to shout: "Li Yujiao, come out!"

Li Yujiao is packing the meat she bought today. Now that the weather is hot, it has to be marinated with salt to prevent it from going bad.

Speaking of salt, salt is really expensive in this era, almost catching up with the price of rice.

When she heard someone outside calling her, and the tone was so bad, as if she was ordering a maid, she shouted outside: "What do you want me to do? I'm busy, just tell me if you have something to say!"

Jing Qishan was so angry that he simply stopped shouting.

The gadfly sucked enough blood from his nose and flew away.

Jing Qishan was so angry that he closed his eyes.

In his previous life, he could kill an entire family with just a wave of his hand, but now he can't even deal with a stink bug!

But fortunately the bedbugs had flown away.

But before he could calm down, he realized something was wrong. He opened his eyes and found several gadflies flying around him.

The one that just enjoyed his blood actually ran back to call its family!

Now seven or eight gadflies were flying around him, some landing on his face, some biting his lips, and some biting his neck.

"Li Yujiao, come out!"

Li Yujiao's hands were covered in lard. She couldn't help but say, "I've already told you. If you have something to say, just tell me!"

Jing Qishan couldn't stand it any longer, so he just said, "Come out and kill the bugs!"

Killing bugs?
