Liang An took Mei Jingjing back to the courtyard just in time. Midday time.
However, Liang An, who had been impulsive just now, immediately felt a little embarrassed after leading Mei Jingjing, who was nominally his daughter-in-law, back to his courtyard.
"This...this is my home, a bit rundown."
Mei Jingjing didn't expect her husband to be such a shy child, so she couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile. This expression and action made Liang An's eyes go straight.
Mei Jingjing did not have the arrogance of those goddesses, nor did she feel that the world was centered on her. Instead, she knelt down to thank Liang An again, which frightened Liang An again.
"What are you doing? Get up quickly."
Just when Liang An just pulled Mei Jingjing up, Mei Jingjing said with tears in her eyes.
"Thank you to the master for taking me in."
After Mei Jingjing spoke, Liang An hurriedly said, "You don't want to call me the boss of the house every day. My surname is Liang, and my only name is An."
I am the only one in the family. My mother died in childbirth and my father also passed away unexpectedly not long ago.
But there is one more thing I want to make clear to you. "
Mei Jingjing hurriedly looked up at Liang An and waited for Liang An's arrangements.
"My father died of illness. In order to save my father, I sold all the property in my family and borrowed foreign debts."
Upon hearing this, Mei Jingjing hurriedly took out more than ten copper coins from her arms.
"Master, my mother secretly gave this to me when I came here. You can take it first."
"How does this work?"
Liang An hurriedly retorted, "How can I take your money? No, no, no, no, no, I, a man, even if I starve to death or die from exhaustion, I can't take a penny from your girl's family."
Mei Jingjing was so moved that she took out the money not only as a dowry but also as a way to determine the character of the head of the household.
"I just hope these dozen dollars can help the boss."
"No, no."
Liang An was still refusing, and he was refusing again and again. More than a dozen coins accidentally fell to the ground.
Mei Jingjing hurriedly knelt down to pick them up. After picking up 100 million pieces, she blew them carefully and put them in her hands. Finally, she picked them all up and sent them to Liang An again.
Liang An looked at such a virtuous daughter-in-law and praised Mei Jingjing's nose heavily, which made the beauty squirm. However, Mei Jingjing didn't feel any embarrassment and still put the money in front of Liang An. Holding up the copper coins, he hoped that Liang An would accept the money in his hand.
Liang An and Mei Jingjing looked at each other, and suddenly their stomachs growled at the same time.
At this moment, Mei Jingjing's face turned red with embarrassment.
"Master, I'm going to cook for you now."
As he spoke, he was about to push the copper coins to Liang An again, and Liang An hurriedly punched Mei Jingjing's hand from the palm shape into a fist, leaving more than a dozen copper coins in Mei Jingjing's hand.
"This money is my wife's dowry, I will keep it for you. And my wife, please stop cooking. There is no more rice at home."
After Liang An just finished speaking, Mei Jingjing looked at the dozen copper coins in her hand, and then looked at Liang An, who was standing in front of her and smiled very kindly, and gritted her teeth.
"Master, please let me go back."
Liang An was startled at this moment, but he reacted immediately.
"I know that my family background cannot be a burden to you, so I should let you go back. At least next year you can find a good family, so you don't have to suffer hunger with me."
But as soon as Liang An finished speaking, Mei Jingjing shook her head.
"Master, what are you saying? As the saying goes, if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, follow the dog. I am already the wife of the leader under the witness of the officials. How could I leave the leader?
I wanted to go home and I begged my parents for some food anyway to get us through the winter.
Wait until next spring and rent a few acres of land. The head of the family will farm while I weave and raise silkworms at home. As long as we are hardworking and capable, everything will be fine. "
Liang An was quite moved, but still asked Mei Jingjing.
"Didn't you say that if you go back you will be beaten and scolded by your parents? I feel sorry for your parents already.
Now that I have married you without any betrothal gift or betrothal gift, how can I let you go home and ask for money again?
You believe in me, believe in your boss, no matter what I say, he is also a child prodigy in Liangjiacun, he just passed the boy student examination. "
When she mentioned that she had passed the Tongsheng test, Mei Jingjing pulled Liang An to sit in the middle of the yard, where a tree stump was used as a seat.
"Master, sit down quickly. You are a scholar. You shouldn't do these menial tasks. It's all my fault. I shouldn't arrange for the master.
I will rent a field next year. I will farm during the day and weave at night. I will definitely earn enough money for the family to study, so that the family can take the scholar examination.
When the head of the family becomes a scholar, our whole family will not have to pay taxes, and the money will be saved for the head of the family to study. I wonder what the master’s intention is? "
Seeing Mei Jingjing being so sensible and considering everything for herself, Liang An was filled with emotion.
"Madam, let's talk about this later when we have the opportunity. Now let's fill our stomachs."
When Liang An just said this, Mei Jingjing gritted her teeth again.
"Master, wait a moment. I will go back to my parents' house immediately. You are a scholar and you are already a child. I don't think my parents will embarrass me too much."
Just when Mei Jingjing was about to leave, Liang An grabbed her soft and boneless hand.
"Why bother, madam, just wait and see. I, your head, am not only a little prodigy in reading, but also a real prodigy."
After leaving an incomprehensible sentence, Liang An stood up and quietly placed Mei Jingjing on a stool and sat down.
"Madam, wait a moment. I'll be out for a while and I'll be back. Be sure to wait for me. I'll give you a surprise."
At this moment, Mei Jingjing was a little curious again, surprise, what surprise could there be? Although she was very curious about the surprise Liang An said, Mei Jingjing's face did not show joy yet, and she looked at Liang An as she spoke.
"It's already so difficult for the head of the family, so don't bully others anymore!"
"Where do you mean this?"
However, Mei Jingjing felt that she would find other people for help. They were all poor people, and helping would mean eating and drinking from them. Wouldn't it be bullying them?
Such a nature makes Liang An even more satisfied.
"Ma'am, just wait a moment. You'll know later. I will never bully anyone."
After Liang An finished speaking, he was about to walk out, but Mei Jingjing said hurriedly, "Since the master is going to the slave's house, we can't stop him. Just don't embarrass others."
"Okay, everything depends on my wife."
After the words fell, Liang An had already walked out of the door.
"To have such a virtuous daughter-in-law who can handle both the living room and the kitchen is really a blessing I have acquired in eight lifetimes!"
After Liang An said this, he clenched his fists heavily.
"Even if I am not born rich or have a child in poverty, I must still live a decent life for Mei Jingjing."
When there was smoke rising from the kitchen in Liang An's courtyard, Liang An returned laughing and carrying a few big fish.
"Madam, come out quickly and see what good things I have caught."
As soon as Liang An finished speaking, he quietly came out of the room and greeted Liang An with a bowl of water from the clean clay bowl in the room.
"The master is back. Let's drink some hot water to relieve our fatigue."
But just as Mei Jingjing finished speaking, she saw the fish in Liang An's hand.
"Fish? It's such a big fish. If you take it to the town tomorrow and sell it, you can buy a lot of rice. The boss is really amazing."
But just as Mei Jingjing finished speaking, Liang An waved his hand.
"We'll talk about tomorrow's matters tomorrow. Let's fill our stomachs with these fishes today. It can also be considered as our wedding celebration."
When it comes to getting married, Mei Jingjing's face turns a little red.
She had just cleaned up the room and sold everything that could be sold in the room, leaving only a table and a bookshelf with a few books.
There is also a small bed...
