【Quick Wear】My Years as a Mother-in-law

"I'm Yun Xi, may I ask who you are?"

Yun Xi was curious. This girl looked so young, like a flower blooming in winter.

There are three handsome men and two pretty girls in the family. Logically, she shouldn't be surprised to see a beauty, but Yun Xi was still amazed by her temperament.

Lu Da is handsome and tough, Lu Er is androgynous and charming, Lu San is a sunny young boy, the fourth sister is as elegant as a lotus, fresh and unworldly, and the fifth sister is also a beauty.

But looking at the girl in front of him, Yun Xi felt that her elegant temperament was the most charming, and her beautiful face was just the icing on the cake.

Zhao Taoyao opened the gate and saw the beautiful girl in the alley. She felt that the boring winter had become beautiful. She stared at her fair and rosy skin with envy. She must have taken such good care of herself.

He Xiang smiled and handed over a purse, saying gently, "I'm He Xiang from the Yuanren Marquis's residence. Madam Wei asked me to give you a thank-you gift."

"Thank you for the trouble. Come in and have a cup of tea."

Yun Xi took the purse and thanked him.

"No, I have something else to do. I'll leave after I deliver the things."

After He Xiang finished speaking, she nodded slightly to the two of them and left.

Zhao Taoyao also watched He Xiang walk away, then came over to gossip, "Auntie Lu, who is that person? She's very pretty, not really, not as delicate as Fourth Sister, but she's pretty, and you never get tired of looking at her. She looks like an elegant noble lady."

"Don't call me Aunt Lu from now on. Call me Aunt Yun." Yun Xi turned around and went back to the house first. "Also, the maids working in wealthy families with deep roots are all well-trained and naturally have a noble demeanor."

"why?"

"I've already divorced Lu Zheng. From now on, I'll be single. Do you understand?" Yun Xi said proudly, "I'm a golden bachelorette now."

Zhao Taoyao felt her worldview was overturned. She put the girl behind her and chased Yun Xi, asking, "What? Madam Yun, you divorced your husband?"

Yun Xi had already taken care of this matter. "Of course, Lu Zheng is married into my Yun family, so I naturally have the right to divorce him. If he hadn't disappeared, I would have given him a few big noses."

"This matter has already been filed with the government, and I don't think Lu Zheng will come back. The five men and two women he took away all settled in Huilinfang later. They must be in the same group."

Zhao Taoyao couldn't understand, "I'm curious why he did this?"

"Just treat him as a kidnapper. Stay away from him if you meet him next time. If anyone asks you, just say that the six of us are dead." Yun Xi advised her.

In front of her house is a six-meter-wide alley, and further south is another block. The residents in that block are very wealthy, and are very different from Taolifang. Therefore, there is basically no interaction between them. She is not worried about exposing her identity because of the neighborhood relationship.

"Kidnapper? Then I really need to stay away."

Life in winter doesn't have too many ups and downs. Yun Xi spends every day writing and teaching her children to read and write.

The task of cooking was given to Lu Da.

It's true, these kids were pretty quick at learning the basics. Only Lu Er was always trying to be naughty and uncooperative, like throwing hibernating snakes into her room, boiling a huge pot of eggs, and acting like he was going to eat up all the food in the house...

There were so many of them that Yun Xi really wanted to beat him up. Even his own parents would beat this little brat.

The first ghost story "Bell" sold well after its release. Unexpectedly, many people's psychological endurance was not so weak.

The pen name Xi Nian Liu is also labeled as a horror novel.

The price of a book is 300 wen, the cost is 150 wen, and the profit is 150 wen. Let's see how many books can be sold in the end. The dividends will be distributed once a month.

"The Bell" tells the story of a female ghost, and the second book, "Daytime", tells the horror story of a tomb robber encountering zombies. Yun Xi feels that it is more terrifying than "The Bell", and wonders if readers can accept it.

When I was a child, I read ghost stories and watched zombie movies, but I was most afraid of zombie movies. I would dream about them, but I never dreamed about ghosts. You can see how scary zombies are.

Let’s give the ancients a little shock.

When delivering the second book, Yun Xi received a share of the profits from "The Bell". One thousand two hundred books were sold in a month, and Yun Xi received thirty-six taels of silver, which was not a small amount. The family's monthly living expenses were about two taels of silver, so there was more than thirty taels left. Oh my, they finally started to not lose money.

After reading the manuscript of "Daytime", Shopkeeper Shi was shocked.

"Madam Yun, your writings are becoming more and more terrifying."

Yun Xi scratched her head, "Isn't it bad if it's too scary?"

"Well, there are not many people who are curious about novelty after all, and the protagonists here have no way to deal with zombies. It's really suffocating." Shi Shu covered his chest.

He was referring to the story in "Daytime" about a few tomb raiders who encountered zombies. They had neither extraordinary abilities nor superhuman wisdom, so they could only flee, waiting for daybreak in arduous circumstances...

"Okay then, I'll be more restrained in the next article."

Yun Xi thought about it and wondered if she should be a plagiarist and write the story of White Snake. The story of White Snake satirized and criticized Buddhism, and since many people believe in Buddhism now, she decided to forget about it.

When she returned home with the silver, Zhao's mother came to talk to her and brought her an unexpected news.

Mother Zhao said mysteriously, "My husband saw Lu Zheng today."

Yun Xi was surprised, "See him? Where did you see him?"

Speaking of this, Zhao's mother was a little embarrassed to speak, and whispered: "I saw it outside the blacksmith shop. Lu Zheng looked very different. He was wearing eunuch's clothes. His temperament was also very different from before. But my husband didn't call anyone."

"It's right not to call anyone. Just pretend you don't know. Thank you for telling me the news." Yun Xi took out five meat buns and wrapped them for her. "I bought them in Dongcheng, a time-honored brand. Take them back and let your family taste them."

Zhao's mother evaded the question, "I can't accept it. It's not a big deal."

Yun Xi forced it into her mouth, "This is no small matter. This news is very important to me."

Unable to refuse, Zhao's mother had to put it away. "What are you going to do now that you know about him? What are your plans for the future?"

Yun Xi was vague, "Of course it's revenge on Lu Zheng for deceiving me for so many years."

"Well, fortunately you have gotten rid of him now. If you can't get revenge on him, just live a good life and raise the children." Mother Zhao kept nagging and advising for a long time.

Yun Xi agreed casually, and after Zhao's mother left, she wrote down the news in her small notebook.

Strange Lu Zheng, instead of being a good man, he became a eunuch? Did he practice the Sunflower Manual?

And then there was Wei. She and Wei had a pact: if she needed any clues, she would ask the beggar to notify her. If she was in danger, she would not contact him. If she was safe, she would give him six taels of silver as a thank you. But he gave her five taels of silver. What did that mean? Safe, but not completely safe?

Let’s put this matter aside for now.
