While the Lu family was laughing and laughing, the Xu family was gloomy.
Xu Wei was sitting at the head of the hall, glaring angrily at Xu Ting who was kneeling on the ground with dull eyes: "Damn girl, tell me, what is going on?"
Xu Ting seemed not to hear, kneeling straight on the ground and keeping silent.
Xu Wei was so angry that he slapped her face. In an instant, Xu Ting's pale face had red finger prints.
Aunt Lu waited until Xu Wei finished slapping her, then stepped forward and gently pulled Xu Wei: "His father, don't be angry. Maybe Ting Yatou just couldn't help herself and did such a thing on impulse. ."
As Aunt Lu spoke, the corners of her mouth curled up in an imperceptible arc. This damn girl, Xu Ting, deserves what she has today!
That day at the gate of the academy, Xu Ting said such words, which stabbed Aunt Lu hard in the heart.
Aunt Lu was furious. The more she thought about it when she came back, the more she regretted it. She had raised her as her own daughter since she was a child. She didn't expect that she would raise a white-eyed wolf who would bite her back.
When Xu Wei heard what Aunt Lu said, he was already furious and hit Xu Ting even harder.
Xu Ting couldn't bear it anymore and cried loudly.
"If you hit me, just beat me to death. Anyway, you have disliked me since you were a child and wish I was dead."
"Ms. Lu, you bitch, it's all because of you that you took away my father and drove away my mother. Even if I get to the underworld, I won't let you go, ah..."
Xu Ting was beaten violently by Xu Wei. At first, she still had the strength to cry, and she cursed while crying. Later, her voice gradually became quieter.
When Aunt Lu saw Xu Wei's eyes turned red, she quickly pulled him back with all her strength.
"His father, we can't beat him any more. If we continue to beat him, Ting Yatou will die."
Xu Wei fought for a long time and was already out of breath from exhaustion. He looked at Xu Ting lying on the ground with red eyes and said to Aunt Lu: "Go to the matchmaker and marry her off quickly to avoid bad words from spreading outside. The family’s reputation.”
Aunt Lu had this intention, so she nodded immediately and said, "Ting Yatou, don't worry, mother will find a good family for you."
Xu Ting, who was on the ground, had no luster in her eyes, she only felt pain all over her body, and she didn't hear what Aunt Lu said at all.
No one in the Lu family knew about these things that happened in the Xu family, and they were not interested.
The Lu family was busy picking the second wave of honeysuckle. This time, they still hired about twenty diligent helpers from the village. It took them two days to finish picking the honeysuckle.
Gu Yunxi also wanted to help pick, but the whole family objected, especially He and Lu Jianchuan, who refused to agree no matter what Gu Yunxi said.
Gu Yunxi had no choice but to follow them, sitting on the edge of the medicine field and watching them pick honeysuckle.
After picking them, I followed Father Lu to transport the honeysuckle home and put it in the yard to dry.
A few days later, Lu Jianchuan and Dad Lu delivered a large package of dried honeysuckle to the county town. The drug store that previously sold honeysuckle sold it to shopkeeper Wen.
When Father Lu and Lu Jianchuan came back, Lu Jianchuan said carefully and thoughtfully: "Daughter-in-law, what do you think we encountered this time?"
"What happened? The honeysuckle was sold at a higher price?" Apart from this, Gu Yunxi really couldn't think of anything else.
Lu Jianchuan was speechless for a while: "No, the price of honeysuckle is still the same. Well, this is all silver."
As he spoke, he handed a heavy purse to Gu Yunxi.
Gu Yunxi took it with a smile and opened it to see that there were five taels of silver in it and a piece of broken silver.
"Daughter-in-law, can you guess again?" Lu Jianchuan was still very interested.
Gu Yunxi put away the money and asked doubtfully: "Is there any new opportunity to make money?"
Lu Jianchuan rolled his eyes. His wife only had money in her eyes, and her guessing was all about money.
"Just tell me, I really can't guess." Gu Yunxi was acting coquettishly with Lu Jianchuan, and she was too lazy to guess.
Lu Jianchuan said: "Dad and I went to the county drug store this time and met shopkeeper Wen."
"Well, Shopkeeper Wen is originally the shopkeeper of the medicine shop. Isn't it normal to see him?" Gu Yunxi said.
"No, it's not Shopkeeper Wen from the drug store, but Shopkeeper Wen from Shixiufang." Lu Jianchuan quickly explained.
Shopkeeper Wen from Shixiufang? Gu Yunxi suddenly remembered, wasn't he the shopkeeper Wen who followed Chen Dong's family? I haven't seen him for a long time. How could Lu Jianchuan see him at the county drug store?
Wait, the shopkeeper of the county drug store is also named Wen?
Gu Yunxi finally rounded the corner and asked, "Who is the shopkeeper Wen of the drug store, the shopkeeper Wen of Shixiufang?"
"They are father and son! Unexpected, right?" Lu Jianchuan said with a smile.
Gu Yunxi suddenly realized. No wonder, the last time she went to sell honeysuckle, she felt that Shopkeeper Wen of the drug store looked familiar. It turned out that he was the son of Shopkeeper Wen of Shixiufang!
"Shopkeeper Wen was a little surprised when he saw me. They said that these honeysuckles sell well in the county and prefectures. If we have more in the future, we can just send them to the drug store."
Gu Yunxi nodded. It seemed that the county drugstore was also owned by Chen Dong's family. The Chen family's business was indeed very large, and they were spread throughout Jihu Town, Yang County, and even Fucheng.
She had only met the Chen Dong family a few times, but since the last time Shopkeeper Wen and the Chen Dong family helped Gu Yunle to be rescued smoothly, Gu Yunxi felt that they were good people.
She is also happy to do business with the Chen family.
However, this wave of honeysuckle in the medicine field has been picked, and the next batch will have to wait another half to a month.
Gu Yunxi was really bored. Apart from drawing, he just read books and practiced calligraphy, waiting for Lu Jianchuan to come back from school.
On this day, she really couldn't sit still at home, so she planned to go out for a walk. During the day, the villagers had nothing to do, so they would gather under the big banyan tree in the center of the village, sit, chat, and play cards.
When Gu Yunxi arrived, several women were playing cards and playing cards enthusiastically. Others were watching, including some familiar faces including Mrs. Mo and Mrs. Li.
Gu Yunxi pretended that he had not seen these two people and walked around to the other end, curiously watching them playing cards.
The playing cards of this era are almost the same as those of the 21st century!
Gu Yunxi was thinking about it when she suddenly felt something staring at her. When she raised her eyes, she saw Mrs. Li looking at her fiercely, as if she wanted to eat someone.
Mrs. Li, the more you talk to her, the more excited she will be.
Gu Yunxi didn't want to pay attention to her and looked away.
Besides, Gu Yunxi is no longer alone now. She is still pregnant. If there is any conflict with Mrs. Li or something happens to the child, the gain will outweigh the loss.
However, Gu Yunxi thought so, but Mrs. Li did not intend to let her go.
