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

Li Yujiao said, "I'm busy now. I have to rush back to town."

Wang said: "I told her that you have a lot of things to do and might not have time to come for dinner. She got anxious and said that you didn't even go when I asked you to. What's so great about Li Yujiao? She's just a fake daughter. And you're saying that she's not as good as a real daughter.

Jiaojiao, I didn't mean to stir up trouble between you two. I don't think it's necessary for you to go back to a mother-in-law like this. If you go back, she will tell others that you are reluctant to give up your identity as the daughter-in-law of the Jing family.

I actually don’t want to go back for this meal, but I have no choice. My husband and children are at home, but you don’t have any children, and you and the third child have moved out separately.”

Li Yujiao smiled and said, "I won't go. Let's go to Jing Qishan."

Jing Qishan inside had heard their conversation, and he said to the outside: "If my wife doesn't go, I won't go either!"

Wang said, "Then you should hurry back to town. I will go back and tell mother-in-law that you have something else to do and can't come back for dinner."

After Wang left, Li Yujiao went back and gave the pants to Jing Qishan, and she hid in another room to change into cotton pants.

……

In the evening, Chun Ge also came back.

He looked aggrieved.

Li Yujiao asked, "Brother Chun, what's wrong with you?"

Chun Ge said: "My sister-in-law still can't tolerate me. She said that I live well in town and shouldn't go back to the village to fight with them for a house."

Li Yujiao said: "In this case, then you can come back and do your homework."

Chun Ge couldn't help but laugh: "I've finished my homework a long time ago, I want to read a book."

"Then you go!" Li Yujiao said with a smile.

Chun Ge has been studying very hard recently and is completely obsessed with it.

After getting Li Yujiao's approval, he immediately went back to his room to read.

Jing Qishan also followed Chun Ge in. He was curious about what book Chun Ge was reading recently.

When he saw Chun Ge reading the Annotated Analects of Confucius, he couldn't help but ask, "Have you been reading these books recently?"

Chun Ge nodded and said, "Mr. Song said that if I want to be a teacher like him in the future, I have to take the exam to become a scholar. Only if I pass the exam can I become a teacher."

Jing Qishan asked: "Do you want to be a teacher?"

Chun Ge said, "A scholar gets two taels of silver as a subsidy every month, and is also exempt from taxes. If I pass the exam to become a scholar, Jiao Jie's shop won't have to pay such high taxes."

Recently, Chun Ge also followed Wang Erhua and Jing Qizhi in calling Li Yujiao "Sister Jiao".

After hearing what Chun Ge said, Jing Qishan couldn't help but sneer: "It's easy to pass the exam to become a scholar, but your ambition should not be to be just a teacher."

Chun Ge asked doubtfully: "What else should I be?"

Jing Qishan said: "In addition to taking the exam for the scholar, you can read more maps and books on statecraft. This way you can be knowledgeable and talented. In the future, you can join some capable people and become a strategist. Once you have made achievements, you can be appointed as an official. Then you can climb up step by step and become a powerful official or a ruler."

Chun Ge was stunned when he heard this.

"Big brother, I have never thought about becoming a minister. I just want to be a scholar and serve my sister in the future."

Jing Qishan smiled and said, "So do you think you can serve her better as a minister with power, or as a scholar? If you become a high-ranking official with power, you can make people respectfully call her Sister Jiao with just one order.

But if you are only a scholar, then the only thing you can do to help her is to reduce taxes and draw flyers for her, which is of little use."

Chun Ge was shocked again.

Li Yujiao outside also heard it.

It seems that Jing Qishan is very ambitious. He must not be willing to stay in her noodle shop forever. Perhaps before long, he will leave Minle Town and return to the battlefield.

……

After the winter solstice, more people came to the noodle shop again.

A man of about eighteen or nineteen came that day. Judging from his dress, it was clear that his family had some money, because his winter coat was made of silk and he had a feather hairpin on his head, which made him look a bit sexy.

After he came in, he looked around the noodle shop. He didn't look like he was here to eat noodles, but rather to look for someone.

Wang went to receive him and asked, "What would you like to eat, sir? We have hot and sour noodles, milk tea, lemon tea, and bread."

The man smiled and said, "Give me a bowl of hot and sour noodles. By the way, I want to meet Li Yujiao."

Wang was puzzled for a moment, then she shouted inside: "Jiaojiao, someone is looking for you."

Li Yujiao put down the pot and spoon and came out. She saw the man in front of her, whom she did not recognize, so she asked, "Who are you?"

When the man saw her, he became excited: "Jiao'er, it's me!"

Li Yujiao asked cautiously: "Who are you?"

The man immediately became displeased: "Do you really not recognize me, or are you pretending not to recognize me? I am your childhood friend, Qu Wencheng. I haven't seen you for only half a year, and you don't recognize me? Are you pretending?"

Childhood sweetheart?

That was the original owner’s childhood sweetheart.

Li Yujiao asked tentatively: "Why did you come to see me now?"

Qu Wencheng looked aggrieved: "I wanted to find you, but they didn't tell me where you were. After you left, they asked Li Yu'e to marry me, but Li Yu'e rebelled, saying that I was not worthy of her. I couldn't sleep for several nights. After thinking about it, I still think you are the best. I shouldn't have agreed to marry Li Yu'e in the first place!"

Li Yujiao: “…”

The original owner's love history was too messy, and she was a little overwhelmed. She just wanted to make money.

There were a few other people eating noodles in the store, and after hearing Qu Wencheng's words, they all looked over curiously.

Li Yujiao couldn't help but say: "I'm already married, if you want to eat noodles, eat them, if not, leave."

"I know you're married, and I'm not asking for anything from you. I just want to come and see you. Is that not okay? I'll leave after I see you."

Li Yujiao said: "Then you can go."

Just as he was about to send the guest away, Li Yu'e came in angrily.

As soon as Li Yu'e arrived, she started to curse: "You are such a jerk Qu Wencheng. Xiao Miao said that you came to Yong'an Town. I didn't believe it at first. On the day of breaking off the engagement, you clearly said that you didn't want to see me again. So you came to see Li Yujiao. Do you want to have a secret affair with Li Yujiao and rekindle our old relationship?

Fortunately, I found out that you were useless and broke off the engagement early. Otherwise, if I had married you, I would have had to endure your three wives and four concubines. "

Li Yu'e's voice was so loud that it attracted many people over, and Jing Qishan also came out.

Jing Qishan asked Li Yujiao: "What's going on?"

Li Yu'e was the first to complain: "Your wife wanted to reconcile with her childhood sweetheart, so when they met, they flirted in the store and I caught them red-handed. Jing Qishan, look at the man you married, he is so fickle and almost cheated on you..."

Before Li Yu'e could finish her words, she was slapped unexpectedly.

"..."Li Yu'e was hit and flew backwards. She saw stars, felt dizzy, and had a nosebleed.

Xiao Miao and Li Er called her for a long time before she reacted.

She was actually beaten by Jing Qishan!
