After the marriage was broken off, the husband's family regretted it

Chapter 82 Sophora japonica finds out the secret recipe

Yuntao and Erniu had a happy meal at their grandparents' house and then went back home. It was dark when they got home, and Daniu had been waiting at the door, fearing that something had happened to his mother and second brother.

Daniu, "Mom, you're finally back. I was so worried about you. You didn't come back so late. You just watched a rabbit nest for so long."

Erniu: "Brother, it was a rented house. How could I leave after seeing it? I didn't see the rabbit hive for long. I just played with some cousins for a while, and my mother and grandmother talked about family matters. Brother, you didn't see it. The rabbit hive was built very well and looked very pleasing. It's a pity that it was eaten. Poor rabbit."

Daniu smiled and said, "If you don't eat it, how can you have money to spend. If you don't want to eat it, that's fine. You can just go back to living in the thatched hut. It's that simple."

Yun Tao looked left and right but didn't see Sanniu: "These days, Daniu, you saw Sanniu. Why don't I see him? What is he busy with all day?"

Da Niu said embarrassedly, "Mom, since that incident, you have stopped giving San Niu pocket money. Maybe he has no pocket money and is short of money. Recently, I often see him going to town early and late, and coming back very late at night. And he is out of breath when he comes back. It feels like he has been working, otherwise he wouldn't be so tired. He is also very dirty. By the way, he was wearing coarse cloth clothes when he went there, the same kind of clothes we used to wear when we worked."

Yun Tao said firmly, "That means he went to work to earn money to support his little wife. I haven't given him a penny since that incident. It's not easy to support a little wife. She needs money. And if they don't make money, where will they get the money to rent a house or repair a thatched hut?"

Daniu looked at his mother and said, "Mom, there are some things I don't know whether to tell you or not. Sanniu sometimes takes the preserved eggs from home out, and I don't know what he does with them. You said to sell them, but he didn't take much, just a few. You said to eat them yourself, isn't it enough to eat them at home? Why does he have to take them out? I don't understand what he is thinking."

Erniu laughed out loud: "Brother, you don't understand this. This must be for his beautiful wife. Don't forget, preserved eggs are sold outside for 8 coins each. If you go out to buy them, it will still cost dozens of coins. How could Aunt Zhaodi's family be willing to spend them? Everyone in the village knows Aunt Zhaodi's character. If you don't take advantage of the opportunity, you are a bastard."

The three of you looked at each other and understood what was going on. It must be to help Huaihua's family.

Huaihua looked at Sanniu's miserable appearance and said, "Sanniu, don't go to the town to work recently. It's very tiring. And I feel sorry for you when I see you are so tired." After saying this, Huaihua started crying.

Sanniu felt distressed when he saw Huaihua like this: "Huaihua, don't be sad. I am a man, this is what I should do. I should make money to support you, it is only natural. Besides, I will make more money now, so that you won't be so tired when we get married. Our lives will be much better. Besides, everything costs money now, so it's better to have more money on you."

Huaihua felt sad and happy when she heard this.

The feelings towards Sanniu are even more complicated.

Huaihua said shyly, "Thank you, Sanniu. We really like the preserved eggs you brought to our family before, and I like them too. Can you give me some preserved eggs? Can you give me a few more? The main thing is that preserved eggs are very small, and there won't be much left after cutting them. There are also many people in the family, so there won't be much left if we divide them among each person."

Hearing this, Sanniu felt a little embarrassed. "Huaihua, I may not be able to take more. There are not many preserved eggs at home. I only take a few each time. It's not that I want to take more, but I don't dare to take more. If I take too much, I will be discovered. Besides, the preserved eggs are not produced in our village now, but at my uncle's place. Now when we want to eat preserved eggs, we occasionally go to my uncle's house and take some."

Sanniu poked his hand awkwardly and said, "That's too much. It will be bad if mom finds out. Besides..."

When Huaihua heard what Sanniu said, she immediately understood.

"Sanniu, don't say anything. I know it very well. Don't take the preserved eggs from now on. Aunt doesn't like me anyway. If you give me the preserved eggs to eat, she will hate me even more. It will make things difficult for you if I say more. I don't want you to quarrel with Aunt over this matter and embarrass you. I hope you are fine, Sanniu."

Sanniu was deeply moved when he heard this, "Huaihua, you are so considerate and you love me so much. Just because you are so good to me, I am willing to do anything for you."

Huaihua looked at Sanniu in front of her and said, "Sanniu, I also like that jasmine-scented soap. When I use it to take a bath, the whole body smells like jasmine. But my mother wouldn't let me buy such an expensive soap, which is a pity. But I heard that it was made in your family."

Sanniu said excitedly: "Yes, it is made at home, Sophora japonica, if you like it. I will get it for you."

Huaihua said embarrassedly, "Forget it, Sanniu, soap is such an expensive thing. I heard it costs several taels of silver. If you give it to me, won't there be one less piece, and it will be discovered. It's not nice to give me the preserved egg, let alone such a precious soap. Forget it, Sanniu, I won't make it difficult for you, just don't go home and give it to me."

"Sanniu, do you know how to make it? I can make it at home for my own use in the future, so I don't have to spend money to buy it, and you don't have to give it to me for my own use. It's not difficult for you to make it, and I can use the soap I want to use. Don't you think it's great, Sanniu?"

Sanniu looked at Huaihua and said even more embarrassedly: "Huaihua, I don't know the formula either. I don't care about anything in the workshop. Besides, mother dislikes my young age and won't tell me many things. I only know that the fragrance of soap is a kind of spice, which is very unique. Even my eldest brother and second brother don't care about that spice. It's all in mother's room. Every time she wants to produce a certain scent of soap and how much spice is needed, it's all decided by mother herself. No outsider can touch it."

"This also includes the three of us brothers. If you want to make the recipe or spices yourself, I can't help you."

Huaihua was very disappointed when she heard these words. Not only did she not get the recipe, but she couldn't even get any spices.

"Sanniu, can't you get any at all? I just need a little bit. If it doesn't work fast, I can use it myself."

Sanniu looked at Huaihua. "Huaihua, it's not that I won't help you, it's just that I really can't get any. It's all handled by mother herself, I don't care about this. And mother won't let us touch spices."

Sanniu watched Huaihua struggling with the soap formula and spices. He had no idea what to say and couldn't help.

"Huaihua, I'm going to go back first. It's too late and I'm very tired. I'll come to see you when I have time."

After saying this, Sanniu left directly, leaving Huaihua so angry that she stomped her feet on the spot.
