The rural doctor bought a husband who was very treacherous

Su Tang entered the kitchen and saw strips of meat hanging next to the stove.

Zhang pulled Erniu to the kitchen door and asked, "Do you want to take it outside and continue to smoke it?"

"Sure, I'll go call Qi Lingheng to come and get it done."

Now Qi Lingheng is the only strong laborer in the family, so he must be called upon to do the work.

Su Tang walked to the newly built room and took a look. Qi Lingheng would usually copy books here.

Sure enough, this guy is here today too.

Looking at the man who was concentrating on the book, Su Tang suddenly asked, "You are not some prince or prince who ended up in my house, are you?"

Su Tang just learned that she has a hidden identity as a princess, and now she has to wonder what Qi Lingheng does.

Qi Lingheng remained calm, but his heart trembled.

Did he reveal something, or was Qi Feng exposed?

In a wasteland not far from the Su family, Qi Feng, who was lying down and sleeping, suddenly woke up.

However, he looked around and found nothing unusual and fell asleep again.

There is no way around it. The sleeping hours of secret guards are different from those of ordinary people. On weekdays, when they have nothing to do, they will stay up until they can't stand it anymore and then take a short nap.

The master is not in danger now, so he just needs to help the master pass on some messages on weekdays.

So, he would find time to sleep for a while during the day, and most of the time he would go to the Su family to keep watch for his master at night.

"I wanted to tell my wife this before." Qi Lingheng put away the brush and elegantly placed it on the inkstone beside him.

There is no way, the conditions are limited now and there is no pen holder.

Qi Lingheng turned around and wiped his hands with the towel on the table. This was a habit he developed since childhood. In the past, he would always get ink on his fingers, which would easily stain other parts of his body.

"But I wanted to tell my wife at that time, but you said you wouldn't listen." Qi Lingheng walked to Su Tang's side and looked at Su Tang sideways, "Why, you want to listen now."

"Tell me what you say."

"Are you sure you want to say it here?"

Qi Lingheng's gaze turned to the yard, where Zhang was strolling in the yard.

"What's the big deal? He's not a stranger." Su Tang raised her eyebrows. When Old Man Su told her about his life story just now, didn't he just close the door?

"Or should I close the door?" Su Tang turned around and was about to close the door.

"No need, it's no big deal. I'm the eldest son of Marquis Dingbei." Qi Lingheng's voice was not loud, and only Su Tang who was in the room heard it.

Since he has already accepted Su Tang, he naturally doesn't want to hide it from Su Tang anymore.

But more importantly, he wanted to see Su Tang's attitude.

"Prince." Su Tang showed an expression of "as expected", but the tone of her words changed, "Are you rich? Well, he should be poor, otherwise he wouldn't have become a refugee."

"The Dingbei Marquis' Mansion was raided by the current emperor." Qi Lingheng frowned when he said this.

Now the fate of his father and the five thousand soldiers is still uncertain, and it is not convenient for him to reveal his current identity.

He actually wanted to go to Northern Xinjiang to investigate in person, but Qi Feng said that some people were still secretly investigating his whereabouts.

That's why he has been hiding here.

On this side, Su Tang widened her eyes, looking surprised.

Should she ask Old Man Su to give her some advice on the interpersonal relationships in the court?

Now it seems that Su Tang actually has a grudge against Qi Lingheng.

So is it right or wrong for her to keep Qi Lingheng?

Looking at Su Tang's astonished expression, Qi Lingheng thought that Su Tang was frightened by the words of house confiscation.

In the eyes of the common people, those whose property is confiscated are not only the most treacherous and evil people, but also those who will be implicated as a whole.

"If you are afraid that I will bring trouble to the Su family, I can leave now."

The paper deed that Su Tang bought from him was actually a fake, and his real identity was not a refugee.

"That's not necessary, but if you want to leave, you can leave at any time." Su Tang shook her head. A dragon cannot be kept in a pond. People like Qi Lingheng will definitely not stay in the countryside forever.

There was no need for her to rush her away, Su Tang didn't want to have any more conflicts with Qi Lingheng.

She only hoped that after Qi Lingheng was reinstated, he would not target her or these people in the Su family.

After all, they did not do him any wrong. Instead, they gave him a quiet place to hide temporarily.

"Okay, I'm going to move all the bacon to the yard and smoke it. You help me move it out." Su Tang's face regained composure, as if she had never heard what was just said.

After Su Tang finished speaking, she turned around and left, going straight to the kitchen to work.

Qi Lingheng stared at Su Tang's back for a moment, then followed her.

The two of them worked together to move all the meat to the yard. Su Tang directed Qi Lingheng to build a wooden rack. When the meat was hung up, Su Tang started to make a fire under the meat.

The billowing black smoke smoked the meat above, and soon the aroma of meat filled the yard again.

"Meat. We'll eat meat tonight." Erniu was very brave and not afraid of fire at all. He squatted beside Su Tang and looked at the smoked meat on the shelf.

In his eyes, all the meat was delicious.

The meat stewed with Su Tang is very soft and tender, even Erniu can eat several pieces at a time.

"Hey, what is the Su family doing? The meat smells so good." Outside the yard, Li Fuxiu's voice came from outside the courtyard wall.

"It should be pork. The Su family has been smelling meat these days. Yesterday I saw a girl from the Su family driving a donkey cart back from the city. I don't know what was in the cart because the curtains were closed and no one could see it."

"Hey, I have something good to show you..." Li Fuxiu said sarcastically again.

"Oh, if I had known the Su family's current situation, I would have let my son..." The person who spoke had already walked away, but when the words fell into the ears of the Su family, everyone could guess what the other person was saying.

Someone must have regretted not marrying Su Tang. Even if Su Tang is infertile, Dr. Su can make money. Besides, Su Tang is not so sickly anymore.

Qi Lingheng poked the firewood in the fire with a wooden stick, and the flames made crackling sounds.

The pork was smoked for another half a day, which consumed a lot of firewood, and made Old Man Su very upset. However, he didn't dare to say anything to Su Tang anymore.

The window paper was broken. In addition to the father-daughter love, when facing Su Tang, Old Man Su now felt a little more like a monarch and his subject, but he did not show it too much.

From now on, I will never say a word to Su Tang again.

In the evening, Sun came back early to cook.

"It's time to harvest our crops tomorrow." Because the crops have to be dried in the village drying yard, the harvesting days for each household in the village are arranged in advance by the village chief.

Tomorrow it will finally be the Su family's turn. After this wave of grain is harvested and dried, the grain collectors will come.

Next, it is the hibernation period of the year.

"We used a lot of firewood today. After the grain is harvested, let the eldest and second sons go and chop more firewood for reserve." Old Man Su strolled outside the kitchen and said to Sun who was cooking inside.

There is no mother-in-law in this family. When Old Man Su has something to say, he will talk to his eldest daughter-in-law.

A hundred years later, as long as this family does not break up, it will still be handed over to the hands of the Sun family.
