After dying early, I traveled to ancient times and became a boy
Chapter 131: Exhausted
Ye Ergen fell into the well and drowned, so Xiuniang and her daughter no longer had to worry. Some villagers said that they would no longer have a man to rely on as the head of the family. Only Xiuniang knew that it would be the same with or without this man. With this man, their suffering began.
The third mother-in-law accepted Luzhu as her apprentice. After asking her daughter's opinion, Xiuniang happily agreed.
At Luzhu's age, you might say she's young and naive, but in fact, she knows everything about her father, grandfather, and uncle. She's been around since she was little.
When they have work to do, they come back to work, after all, they need to eat. But when they don't work, these evil creatures spend two or three days in the casino.
I don’t know how magical the casino is that it attracts all the young and old men in the village to gamble.
Gambling is like this: if you lose, you want to win back your money; if you win, you want to win more. Those who can't control themselves will eventually lose everything.
Xiuniang lived with her daughter in Third Grandma's house. She was good at washing clothes and cooking, and fetching water and chopping firewood were no problem for her. She even took the time to dig up the two pieces of wasteland given to Third Grandma by the village, intending to grow some vegetables that could survive the winter.
Moreover, this land can be used to grow crops next year, which will give them more income.
When Ye Xunqing went there again, Xiuniang was not there. She had gone to dig the ground. Only Luzhu and Third Grandma were there. Third Grandma was teaching Luzhu to identify herbs and read.
"You've come at the right time. Please help me teach her a few words. I'm going out for a while." The third grandmother packed up her things and prepared to go out.
Ye Xunqing asked one more question: "Where are you going?"
Grandma San replied, "It was the ghost who made him fall into the well. His family bought some offerings and asked me to go take a look and seal the well. I'd say the same thing. Who would dare use a well if someone died in it?"
It was unnecessary to say who the Third Granny was talking about. However, Ye Xunqing was a little worried about Luzhu's mental health, after all, he was her father.
Ye Xunqing looked at Luzhu's expression. Luzhu was just quietly writing the names of the herbs without any extra expression.
After the third mother-in-law left, only Ye Xunqing and her husband were left in the room. Ye Xunqing wanted to give her some psychological counseling, but he didn't know how to start.
"Uncle Qing, do you want to tell me something?" Luzhu put down her pen and looked at Ye Xunqing with her big round eyes. "It's okay, uncle, go ahead. Luzhu wants to talk to you."
Her eyes are very beautiful, black, bright and round, like dewdrops.
"Oh." Ye Xunqing touched his nose and said, "Do you know who fell into the well?"
Dew nodded, "I know, and I know why he fell into the well."
Ye Xunqing was shocked. Could it be that Luzhu saw Xiuniang taking action?
"It was the gods and ghosts who avenged us." Luzhu looked at the altar with reverence and said with a smile, "My mother and mother-in-law both said that the gods and ghosts couldn't bear to see the bad guys bullying us, so they took him away. From now on, he will stay in the eighteen levels of hell and will never come back."
Ye Xunqing breathed a sigh of relief, "Yeah, that's it."
Sometimes white lies are good too.
Ye Xunqing stayed here for a while, and then Xiuniang came back carrying a shovel. The wound on her face was too deep and it was probably impossible to recover.
"Sister Xiuniang is back from tilling the soil." Ye Xunqing greeted her.
Xiuniang said with a smile: "Yes, turn the soil over. In a few days, tell mother-in-law to buy some seeds and plant them. Then we can eat tender vegetables in the spring of next year."
Ye Xunqing discussed with her for a while what vegetables to plant. Xiuniang was more familiar with this place than he was, and had been doing housework for many years. She owned the house inside and out, so she knew best what to plant in what season.
Ye Xunqing wrote them down one by one and planned to plant them when he returned.
It was almost time for dinner, and Xiuniang invited Ye Xunqing to eat here, but Ye Xunqing politely declined. The food here was definitely not as delicious as the one at his home, and he still preferred the food at home.
Ye Xunqing went home to cook. Just as the dishes were on the table, he heard a commotion outside.
Ye Xunqing held the bowl and stretched his neck to look outside. Ye Xunbai and Mo Yuyan were also very curious and wanted to see what was happening outside.
Feng Jingheng said, "Let's eat first, and then go and see it after we finish eating."
After being reminded by him, Ye Xunqing also felt that he should set a good example, so he said: "Well, eat first, and then you can do other things after eating."
However, before they finished their meal, they heard a hearty laugh coming from the door, which sounded quite like the sound of "Feng Lazi".
"Xiao Jing, Xiao Jing..." the woman at the door called out, "Is Xiao Jing here?"
Liu Xiaojing came out of the main room carrying a bowl. When she saw the woman at the door, she was startled at first, then showed an unhappy expression, "Sister-in-law? Why are you here?"
This sister-in-law is Liu Xiaojing's sister-in-law from her mother's family, and is the wife of her eldest brother, named Zhang Lian.
Zhang Lian smiled brightly when she saw Liu Xiaojing. "I just came by to see you. Are you eating? I haven't eaten either, so I'll have a bite."
As she spoke, Zhang Lian walked towards the main room. When she passed by the door of Ye Xunqing's room, she stopped at the fragrance.
"Wow, what's that smell? It smells so good!" Zhang Lian was about to walk towards Ye Xunqing and the others.
Liu Xiaojing ran over and held her back. "That's my second brother's house. We've split up. You can't go there. If you want to eat, come to our house."
Feng Datong and Ye Hongxia also came out at that time. Although they didn't like having people from Liu Xiaojing's parents' family come, since they were already in the yard, they had no reason to chase them out.
"Xiaojing's sister-in-law, right? Come in and have dinner. We haven't eaten yet." Ye Hongxia said with a smile.
Whether it is welcomed or not, the surface work must be done.
Zhang Lian thought to herself, if the food here is so delicious at her son's place, then the food at his parents' place must be good too, so she went to eat happily.
Liu Xiaojing asked her, "Sister-in-law, why are you here?"
Zhang Lian replied, "Oh, someone from the Liu family next door is here looking for their girl. I think it's Wang Xiu. I came along to watch the fun."
After hearing this, Ye Xunqing whispered to Feng Jingheng, "Could it be Sister Xiuniang's family? No, isn't Sister Xiuniang's last name Wang?"
Feng Jingheng gave him an answer, "Three generations return to the clan."
"Ah?" Ye Xunqing knew this word. It had become popular on the Internet in recent years. It was not a good word anyway.
Feng Jingheng thought he didn't understand, so he explained: "Wang Xiu's original surname was Liu. Her father's grandfather married into the family and was originally surnamed Wang. He was from Wangjia Village. Her father also took the surname Liu, but when it came to Wang Xiu's generation, Grandpa Liu died, so the child changed his surname back to Wang."
"I know, I know." Ye Xunqing said, "Eating up the whole family, I know it very well."
There are so many cases of wife-killing that wipe out the entire family every year, and Ye Xunqing can see them every now and then by watching the videos.
"That's pretty much the truth." Feng Jingheng said indignantly, "Anyone who eats up a family's entirety has no guts!"
Ye Xunqing said: "Calm down, calm down. We eat our own food, not our own."
