Xu Zhengxiang became furious when she saw Zou.
But in front of Ye Luoxin, she didn't want to say those ugly words anymore, so she turned her head and ignored the two women.
Unexpectedly, the Zou family on the opposite side took the initiative to come forward.
"Hey, why does she look so familiar? Isn't this my mother-in-law? And the daughter I raised with so much hard work, how come she got married and doesn't even recognize her own mother?"
Since Ye Luoxin left home, Zou has had a lot more work, such as washing clothes, washing dishes, and cutting pig grass. Ye Luoxin should have done these things. Now she sees the real owner still eating cakes leisurely. , the resentment in Zou's heart became even deeper.
This was Ye Luoxin's first official meeting with Zou's mother and daughter.
Ye Qingqing was dressed in silk clothes and was dressed like a pampered young lady. Zou was short and had two deep vertical lines between her eyebrows. She looked like the old lady beside the young lady.
"Who is your biological mother? Don't flatter yourself. Don't forget that on the day of the wedding, your daughter didn't even know where she went!" Xu Zhengxiang said angrily.
Mrs. Zou looked back at Ye Qingqing and sneered: "You are still thinking about my precious daughter! We Qingqing are very lucky. In the future, we will be the wife of an official, a popular and popular drinker, how can we follow you? Standing on the street eating these fried dough cakes that cost four cents a piece.
As far as your family is in a poor place, marrying a calamity like Er Yatou is already a blessing.
But I have to remind you, be careful when your second son goes up the mountain, lest he be snatched away by a wolf. "
"Fuck your mother!" Xu Zhengxiang put her hands on her hips and said, "I think you are the one who talks about having no virtue and is a bitch. You don't even urinate to look after yourself. With your virtues, do you still want to raise an official wife?"
People were coming and going in the market. When people passing by heard a quarrel, they stopped and gathered around to join in the fun.
"Mom!" Ye Qingqing pulled Zou's sleeve hard.
The reason why she escaped from the marriage that day was because she had secretly hooked up with the Xu family's youngest son.
Mr. Xu was born into a wealthy family and was studying hard. If he was admitted to the imperial examination in the future, he would be a real official wife.
With such a good future ahead of her, she naturally couldn't marry Xiao Mu and suffer.
As an official wife, Ye Qingqing didn't want to be watched by these untouchables in the market, which would damage her reputation.
"Mom, let's leave quickly." She urged with a frown.
Zou originally just wanted to vent her anger at Xu Zhengxiang, but Xu Zhengxiang stopped her with a few words and she couldn't swallow it.
"Hmph!" Mrs. Zou sneered, "You don't have that ability yourself, so there is no need to be jealous of me. If my heartless daughter hadn't married into your family, I would have gotten dirty just looking at you."
"My mother is Su Ruyu, you are not my mother!" Ye Luoxin, who had been silent until now, suddenly said.
In so many years, this was the first time Ye Luoxin had refuted her in front of so many people.
Zou felt that she could not save her face, so she opened her mouth and cursed:
"Well, you little bitch, I have provided you with food and drink for so many years. Even a dog has developed feelings.
If it weren't for you, our family would have become prosperous long ago! You turn around and don't recognize anyone. I think you are not only a loser, but also a white-eyed wolf! "
After scolding, she raised her hand, ready to slap Ye Luoxin a few times like before.
Xu Zhengxiang has always been protective of his shortcomings.
You can beat and scold your own children however you want, but no one else can lift a finger.
Seeing Zou raise her hand, she grabbed Zou's wrist: "How dare you try to touch her! Have you forgotten that you have sold Luo Xin to my family, and now she is my family."
Xu Zhengxiang has been working in the fields all year round, and her hands are much stronger than Zou's. She pinched her for a while, causing her to squeal and shout:
"Your son didn't force you to do that. Why would I sell my daughter if I'm a good person?"
Seeing that the people around her craned their necks to watch with great interest, Xu Zhengxiang shook off Zhou's arm with all her strength, pushed her to stagger, and faced the people around her and said:
"Everyone, listen, it's bright and clear. How can we, who live in a poor household, have the ability to force a wealthy family like theirs? It's not like her family was acting rogue and insisted on selling the girl to me. I originally bought this girl for 50 taels of silver. Woolen cloth!"
"Fifty taels?"
"So expensive?"
"This family really dares to speak like a lion."
"That's it, if you ask me, it's just for so much money, that's fifty taels!"
As they spoke, everyone turned their attention to Ye Luoxin again. While looking at her, they estimated in their hearts whether this girl was worth 50 taels.
Ye Luoxin has snow-white skin and delicate facial features, especially her eyes, which are bright and clean. When she is not smiling, her eyelashes also have a slight curve. She is thin and thin, and she looks like she has not had enough to eat all year round.
Such a girl, even if she is more beautiful than the average girl, can only be sold for a dozen taels at most in Ren Yazi's hands.
This farmer must have suffered a loss.
The whispers from the crowd reached their ears one by one, and Xu Zhengxiang struck while the iron was hot: "In today's times, even if life is a bit harder, no one is willing to sell their daughter, and it's not because they are not their own child. Across the belly.”
The attention of the onlookers was immediately shifted.
"It turns out he wasn't born by himself!"
"No wonder it sells."
"Uncle!" Ye Luoxin suddenly knelt down in front of Zou, surprising everyone.
"Auntie, you have raised me so big. Xin'er can't thank you enough. But in these years, Xin'er hasn't had enough to eat or sleep well. She has tried her best to take care of her family.
The property left behind by her father was all handed over to her uncle to take care of, and Xin'er didn't take any of it away. This can be regarded as repaying the nurturing love of her uncle's family.
Now that you have sold me, Shu Xin'er can no longer serve my aunt, please be merciful and stop beating me. "
"You!..." Faced with Ye Luoxin's words of gratitude but actual accusations, Zou couldn't find anything to refute for a while.
Xu Zhengxiang continued: "I don't know if you have heard of Ye Ji Silk Shop. It is a shop owned by my daughter-in-law's biological father.
Years ago, something happened to her biological father and mother, and her uncle took over the family's shop and children. After so many years, the shop and the money were gone, and the children were sold to the two evil-hearted people.
If the child's biological mother, Quan Xia, had known this, she would have cried so much when she saw her daughter ending up like this! "
The human heart is like this. When one's own interests are not at stake, the sense of justice is always stronger.
In just a few sentences, Xu Zhengxiang sketched out a story about a wealthy family leaving an orphan, but the relatives took the money and abused the orphan.
For a moment, everyone looked at Ye Luoxin with some affection.
"This family is really heartless."
"I've also heard about Ye Ji Silk Satin Shop. It was doing very well at first, and the silk and satin designs there were very beautiful. But then it disappeared for some unknown reason. It turns out something like this happened."
"This family has such a dark heart!"
"That's right, after receiving so much money from someone, he actually sold his daughter. This is worse than a pig."
"Don't listen to her nonsense!" Zou's face turned red with anger, and the lines between her eyebrows deepened. "If it hadn't been for me these years, this girl would have starved to death!"
"Then do you collect money from others?"
"Even that silk and satin shop alone probably costs more than a thousand taels of silver. How much money can you spend just raising a girl?"
"If you give me the money, I will definitely raise the girl to be smooth and smooth. How can she be so thin?"
"How miserable!"
"That's right, you see, her own daughter has a good figure and good clothes, but it turns out that she uses other people's money."
"It's just worse than a pig or a dog."
Zou originally wanted to disgust Xu Zhengxiang, but she really didn't expect that things would turn out this way.
Ye Qingqing was almost mad at her mother.
It was a nice visit to the market, and her mother had to find it unpleasant. If Young Master Xu found out, he would definitely dislike her.
Thinking of this, she no longer cared about Zou, turned around suddenly, got out of the crowd, and left quickly.
Zou was afraid that Ye Qingqing would go far away, so she didn't care about arguing with Xu Zhengxiang, so she turned around and ran away.
