In order to avoid Zhao Shuxian's regeneration, Young Master Long did not eat with Jiang Cuilian; But he was always watching, worried, and concerned about Jiang Cuilian's every move. When he saw Jiang Cuilian walking out of the gate of the Long family with her baggage, an indescribable sourness suddenly rose in his heart, and he sighed in his heart: "Cuilian! Dear Cuilian! I'm sorry for you! I'm the one who hurt you! Little Cuilian! I swear to you again: 'I will compensate you with a lifetime of love in heaven'! ”

Jiang Cuilian walked in front with her baggage, and Long followed behind in the dark - he wanted to give Jiang Cuilian a ride - he didn't worry about Jiang Cuilian going back alone with her own blood, and he was reluctant to leave Jiang Cuilian like this; He wants to see Jiang Cuilian again - this farewell, I don't know when we will see each other again.

It is more than 20 miles from Jiangzhou City to Dawangzhuang, and it takes less than two hours to arrive by rickshaw! But because of her shy belly, Jiang Cuilian was afraid of being discovered by others, and wanted to wait until it was dark before going home. Therefore, after Jiang Cuilian played around in the west of the city, she hired a rickshaw to return to Dawangzhuang - Long Zaitian also called a rickshaw to follow.

Whether it is a rickshaw driver in the past or a taxi now, there are enthusiasts and "material reduction ghosts". Enthusiastic people will help you move this and that, and will always send you to where you need to go, making it as convenient as possible for guests. And the "material cutter" is different! Not only do they not help to carry things, but even if they send off guests, they only send them to the main road, not into the alleys and alleys, let alone to the door, and there is still a distance for you to run by yourself.

The rickshaw driver hired by Jiang Cuilian today belongs to the latter - as soon as he arrived at the east of the Wulong Bridge in Dawangzhuang, there was still a mile or two away from Jiang Cuilian's house, so he stopped the car and said that he wanted to turn back early when it was dark and let Jiang Cuilian walk back by himself.

This Dawangzhuang is completely different from Xiaowangzhuang in the west - Xiaowangzhuang is economically backward, cold and depressed; And Dawangzhuang is thriving, and the people are dense; What tea shops, restaurants, tobacco houses**, casino song halls, money village silver number everything; Although it is not as prosperous as Jiangzhou City, it is also a bit lively.

After Jiang Cuilian got out of the car, it was already twilight, and she couldn't see things very clearly! She was about to enter the street with a large burden on her shoulders, but she was confronted by a dejected man with a sharp beak and cheeks. The man saw Jiang Cuilian alone, staring at Jiang Cuilian with his eyes and looking up and down - just because it was late, both sides couldn't see each other clearly, but there was a little sense of déjà vu in the blur.

The man stared at Jiang Cuilian, who was carrying a big burden, for half a minute, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pull off the burden on Jiang Cuilian's shoulders, and ran westward - Jiang Cuilian was stunned by this sudden attack! Scareless! She only felt that the world was spinning, and the sky was dark......

"Stop! Put the baggage down! Jiang Cuilian suddenly heard a familiar voice and cut off the farmer with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, and chased after the man closely.

"Is that him? Is it Young Master Long? How did he end up here? ”

Long Zaitian, who jumped from the rickshaw, chased the thief; The thief hugged the burden tightly with one hand, and smashed Young Master Long with his fist desperately with the other. After a period of fighting, the young master Long, who was only a little high-spirited, gradually lost his strength and let the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked rural man run away.

"Cuilian! Don't be afraid! Don't be angry! The burden was robbed by that guy, forget it! I still have two gold bars here! I'll send you back. Young Master Long Zaitian panted and returned to Jiang Cuilian's side, helped her up, took out the two gold bars that had been brought to Jiang Cuilian, and put them in Jiang Cuilian's pocket.

"How good is it to collect your gold bars again! I can't get sick of that! The frightened Jiang Cuilian said.

"Why don't you want to go? I owe you so much! Do what you should do! Young Master Long Zaitian helped Jiang Cuilian into the rickshaw he was sitting in, and the two of them came to the door of Dawangzhuang Jiang's house in the same car. Young Master Long told the coachman to wait for a while, and then got out of the rickshaw with Jiang Cuilian in his arms.

When Jiang Cuilian knocked on the door, her mother Zheng Jing and younger brother Jiang Wenhua were eating dinner under the lamp. Mother Jiang saw Jiang Cuilian coming back with a handsome rich man, so she hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks, and stepped forward to ask Jiang Cuilian: "Cuilian!" This is ......"

"Mom! This is Young Master Long! ”

"This is Young Master Long? You may be seated! You may be seated! "The Long family is as kind to their daughter as a mountain, and Mother Jiang is of course respectful to Young Master Long like a god!

"Auntie! I'm not sitting anymore! The coachman is still waiting for me outside! I'm leaving! Because Jiang Cuilian is "coming back abnormally", Young Master Long Zaitian should not stay for a long time, so as not to be embarrassed.

"Young Master Long, are you leaving? Then let's go! Jiang Cuilian's pair of Danfeng eyes stared at Young Master Long Zaitian with affection - where was she willing to let Young Master Long Zaitian go! When will we see each other this time! But Young Master Long couldn't help but leave—this was the reason why my mother was about to ask me why I came back, which would embarrass Young Master Long. The second is that there is a tigress in Long Zaitian's house who knows that I am back, and if Long Zaitian is late for Young Master to go back, he will have more tongues.

"Cuilian! I'm leaving! I'll be back in the future! Young Master Long Zaitian said, and also stared at Jiang Cuilian with a pair of beautiful eyes for three seconds, and then turned around and left resolutely!

"Young Master Long, let's go! Young Master Long walks slowly! Mother Jiang kept sending Young Master Long Zaitian to the gate, and watched Young Master Long get into the car and go away before turning back.

"Cuilian! It's not a year, how did you have time to come back? How did you come back so late? When the dragon was gone, Jiang's mother asked her daughter why she came back.

"Mom...... Woo ...... "Mother and daughter are connected, Jiang Cuilian, who has suffered a great grievance outside, saw her mother asking her like this, and regardless of her brother's presence, she lay in her mother's arms and cried unscrupulously.

"Cuilian! Cry! Cry as much as you want! If you have any bitter water, pour it out in front of your mother! As soon as Jiang's mother saw that Jiang Cuilian, who was usually dignified and steady, was so out of control today, she estimated that she had suffered a lot of grievances outside, and knew that her daughter's stomach must be filled with bitter water. Therefore, not only did she not blame Jiang Cuilian, but hugged her daughter tightly and let Jiang Cuilian vent to her heart's content, and she herself shed tears.

Jiang Cuilian cried in her mother's arms for five or six minutes before she could control her feelings and tears, choked up and told the story of the story with Young Master Long. and in distress at the street corner, the gold bars were robbed, Young Master Long fought with the thieves, and was finally escaped by the thieves.

Jiang Cuilian's younger brother Jiang Wenhua is strong in blood; He listened to his sister's story on the side, and was full of anger, he must find Long Zaitian, who had abandoned the beginning and end, to settle accounts: "Hmph! None of the rich kids are good! Sister, don't be sad! I'll go into the city tomorrow to find the guy surnamed Long!" Avenge you! ”

"Mandarin! You don't understand these things! Please don't talk nonsense! Your sister and I will take care of this calmly. Mother Jiang pressed Jiang Wenhua down:

This Jiang's mother Zheng Jing is an honest person who is afraid of stepping on ants when she walks, and her life creed is "go against the grain", "suffering is a blessing", and "let people not lose their capital". This Dragon Mansion is the daughter's owner, and Mrs. Long has always been kind to Cuilian; Young Master Long Zaitian is also good to Cuilian, and on the first day of every month, he asks Steward Feng to send ten silver yuan over on time; is how Young Master Long treats Cuilian now, that is also the young master of the family who can afford his daughter, and he really likes his daughter; I had to elope with my daughter last night; This is a true feeling, and it is not a mess at all; If it weren't for the arrogance of that young grandmother, her daughter might be able to marry the Long family and become the second young grandmother.

Even now, people are not ruthlessly abandoning Cuilian, Mrs. Long sent four gold bars, and Young Master Long sent two gold bars; In the future, I will take the children born and raised by Cuilian back to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors, and find a way to compensate Cuilian; If Cuilian is unwilling to marry that Wan Fuxiang, she still wants to give Cuilian a name. From these aspects, it shows that the Dragon Mansion is very benevolent. For such a benevolent and righteous person, how can they lightly say the word revenge? This is the honest Jiang's mother's view of the Long family and her attitude towards the whole thing. But she hated the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, déjà vu, and the bad guy who snatched Cuilian's four gold bars.

"Cuilian! You said that the person who snatched your baggage at the corner of the street was a sharp-billed monkey gills, and he seemed familiar? Mother Jiang asked angrily.

"Because it's getting late, I can't see what that guy looks like, but I feel like I've seen it somewhere." Jiang Cuilian, who was fascinated by the affairs of the Long family, could still identify the specific face of that person in that sudden situation.

"Hey...... That bad guy is so lacking in virtue! Fortunately, Young Master Youlong gave you two gold bars again, so that your mother and son will not suffer in the future! Mother Jiang felt relieved when she saw that her daughter still had two gold bars.

"Mom! These two gold bars are right there for you to use! "Jiang Cuilian is a filial daughter, whether she gets a salary or has any good things, she gives her mother without reservation.

"Hmm...... Let's not talk about gold bars for a while, but think about where you can go to protect the baby. "At this time, Jiang's mother is most worried about how to place her unmarried pot-bellied daughter as soon as possible where to protect the fetus and raise her - this is the top priority, and it must be done without knowing and unknowing; Don't let your neighbors know, let alone let your families know. Once outsiders learn that their daughter is pregnant, it will be terrible: "Cuilian! You can't stay in my house, and you can't even show up. You want to! You have a big belly and a round waist and are pregnant with a child, as soon as you show up, you will immediately spread ten, ten to hundreds, and spread all over the city; It will soon spread to the Wanjia family in Xiaowangzhuang in the west, and then the matter will be out of control! Therefore, it is necessary to immediately think of a safe place to send you away overnight. ”

Ay! Readers! If a woman leaves her husband and wealthy family and elopes with her beloved boyfriend, even if she is pregnant, she is willing to live a hard life with the poor **...... If it's a romance novel or a love story from a TV series; It will surely win the admiration and tears of envy from readers and audiences; There are even people who shout loudly - "For the sake of love, what can not be abandoned?" ”

However, if this is a living fact of life, then this woman must be condemned by all those around her; Maybe even her relatives won't forgive her - the more memorable and resonant the love story, the more beloved it is. But if it is a fact of life, the more it is spurned and cursed. Only a love that follows the rules, starts from the beginning, and is unremarkable is a textbook for real life - Jiang Cuilian's current situation, doesn't it confirm this statement? It's just that her mother didn't dislike her.

"This ......" Jiang Cuilian had thought about this question as early as when she came out of the Long family, and even when Mrs. Long decided to let her come back first to avoid it. But she only thought that she couldn't stay at home for a long time, but she didn't expect her mother to let her leave immediately, which made her feel very sudden and a little uncomfortable.

"Hmm...... Where are you going? Jiang's mother didn't care about her daughter's feelings, but just continued to think about the question of where Jiang Cuilian was going according to her thinking.

"So be it! I'll send you to your uncle's house, who has no children and no daughters, and it's very secluded and quiet. ”

"Mom! Uncle looks like that...... Jiang Cuilian seems to be a little "talking about her uncle's color change", as soon as her mother mentions her uncle, she thinks of her uncle's house when she was a child, her uncle Zheng Dongshan's snobbish and terrifying appearance and all kinds of snobbish things.

"Although your uncle is more snobbish, he is a family member after all, and he is always much better than outsiders, and I don't think he will do you any bad things. And your aunt! Your aunt is a good person. Jiang's mother weighed it again and again, and there were no other good relatives and friends, so it was only better to let her daughter go to her snobbish brother Zheng Dongshan to protect the fetus and give birth.

"Then that's it!" Hearing her mother say this, Jiang Cuilian thought about it too-outsiders saw that she was a young girl who was pregnant unmarried, and she didn't get the "number one news" everywhere? Although my uncle is snobbish, he will never say that she is not.

"Cuilian! I keep the emerald gold ring and the gold necklace with a gemstone pendant that Young Master Long gave you before, as well as the silver yuan that Steward Feng gave you every month (due to Young Master Long's continuous gifts, the impoverished Jiang family is now a small rich family); I also keep the two gold bars that Young Master Long gave you today; Just take some silver dollars and spend them. O Cuilian! Hurry up and have dinner, and we'll go to your uncle's house overnight, and we won't let anyone know you've come back. ”

Jiang Cuilian ate dinner as if she was chewing wax, and Jiang's mother sat aside to talk about her "strategic deployment".

"Cuilian! Let's give your uncle twenty silver dollars first, so that he can have some sweetness before he will be happy. Besides, your clothes have been robbed by the thief, and I have to make some new clothes according to your old clothes and send them to you; You don't have to worry about these things, your mother will arrange them. It's just that you have to be careful everywhere at your uncle's house, and you have to endure everything a little more; If your uncle says something, rub your stomach and endure it, and don't quarrel with him; As soon as the quarrel starts, it will be noisy often, and it will not be good. You must listen to your mother! Jiang Mu said, and the tears came out of her eyes!

"Mom! I will definitely remember your words, be patient in everything, and don't say anything to my uncle, so you can rest assured! In order not to worry her mother, the sensible Jiang Cuilian hurriedly said that she would not say anything to her snobbish uncle; But as soon as he said that, the tears flowed down.

"Cuilian! Don't be sad, let's go! Wenhua also came with us, let's leave now, so as not to have too many dreams at night, if someone comes to play and see it, it will be bad! Jiang's mother, who was uncomfortable, saw her daughter crying, and hurriedly persuaded Jiang Cuilian not to be sad, and urged her to leave immediately.

"Hmmm! Let's go! Jiang Cuilian had just returned home, she couldn't sit at the warm seat, and she was about to leave home, so she couldn't help but feel uncomfortable again.

Because I am afraid of leaking the wind, it is difficult to hire a car, and even the lantern cannot be played; The mother and son had to grope to the north one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Although it has rained in the season, the weather is warm and cold at first, especially at night. Zheng Jing's mother and son were shivering from the cold.

Zheng Jing's elder brother Zheng Dongshan's family lives in Qingshi Village, which is more than ten miles north of Jiangzhou City, and walked from Dawangzhuang for about 20 miles.

In order not to be reckless and not to let the snobbish brother be surprised; At the same time, I don't know what the outcome of the conversation is, Jiang's mother, who has more eyes, asked her son Jiang Wenhua to accompany her sister Jiang Cuilian to wait more than 20 meters away from Zheng's house - she will go in first to meet her brother and sister-in-law before making plans.

When Jiang's mother came to the door of Zheng's house, she saw that there was still a light inside, so she raised her hand and knocked on the door and shouted. Zheng Dongshan, who was about to go to bed, heard someone call the door in the middle of the night and hurriedly asked who and what happened; When he heard his sister Zheng Jing's voice, he turned around and opened the door.

"Zheng Jing! What are you doing so late? "This bastard Zheng Dongshan, my sister rarely came, not only did he not receive him warmly, but also asked such an unreasonable sentence.

"I'm here so late because I have an urgent matter to ask you." There is a saying that "people are self-exalted when they have nothing to seek." "When it comes to asking for help, he is three points shorter; Even though they are brothers and sisters, it is the same - Zheng Jing is here to ask for help today, and she doesn't care about her brother's bastard attitude, so she replied straight to the point.

"What's the urgency?" Zheng Dongshan asked coldly while letting Zheng Jing in.

"Here's the thing...... Mother Jiang put Jiang Cuilian in the Dragon Mansion and Young Master Long had a story, the young grandmother Zhao Shuxian made trouble and "forced the palace", and Mrs. Long gave gold bars, wanting to give birth to a "dragon seed", and then recognize the situation of ancestors and returning to their ancestors in the future. and was in distress at the entrance of Dawangzhuang Street, the gold bars were robbed, and now he plans to put Jiang Cuilian in the Zheng family to protect the fetus and raise the situation, tactfully and strategically tell Zheng Dongshan.

Zheng Dongshan listened to his sister's words, and was a little unhappy at first, but then thought about it: I am an elder brother and an uncle, and it doesn't seem good to not agree to such a thing, but I can't promise in vain.

"Zheng Jing! It's good that you put Cuilian here with me to protect the fetus and give birth! It's just that my conditions here are not very good, and I'm afraid that Cuilian will suffer and be wronged! ”

"I know this, I have twenty silver dollars for you here, and you can use it first; If it's not enough, I'll figure it out later. Mother Jiang knew that her brother was reaching out to ask for money, so she hurriedly took out the twenty silver yuan she had prepared and gave it to Zheng Dongshan.

"Just have a silver dollar! If you have silver dollars, you'll be fine! Then you can send Cuilian over tomorrow! Zheng Dongshan saw that Qian Yuan's eyes were open, and he quickly took the silver yuan, and there was a little sunshine on his face.

"Cuilian is here! She and Wenhua are waiting outside! ”

"Oops! Cuilian and Wenhua are already here? How do you get them to wait outside? Why don't you let them in soon? Zheng Dongshan, who received twenty silver yuan from his sister, was much more polite, so he went out with Zheng Jing to greet Jiang Cuilian and Jiang Wenhua.

Jiang Cuilian and Jiang Wenhua entered their uncle's house and asked for their uncle and aunt. Aunt Chen Guifang hurriedly got up to clean up and placed Jiang Cuilian in the west room.

Jiang's mother laid out the futon for her daughter, put away a lot of things and clothes, settled her daughter, and was about to go back - she and Jiang Wenhua rushed back to Dawangzhuang overnight, so that the neighbors didn't know that she and her son had left home; Don't let the neighbors know that Jiang Cuilian has come back.

The mother and daughter had just been reunited and were about to be separated, and Jiang's mother and Jiang Cuilian were both reluctant to give up and sobbed. Thanks to Chen Guifang's persuasion from the side, the mother and daughter said goodbye in tears.

Jiang Mu and Jiang Wenhua rushed back to Dawangzhuang overnight, and they really didn't know and didn't know it. Jiang Cuilian lived in her uncle Zheng Dongshan's house (during this time, Long Zaitian went to Jiang's house several times and never saw Jiang Cuilian, and Jiang's mother didn't tell him where Jiang Cuilian was); To the outside world, it is only said that friends of distant relatives like the quiet of the countryside and want to go to the countryside to protect the fetus. As for how Zheng Dongshan treated Jiang Cuilian, I will talk about it later.

Two flowers bloom and one branch.

Let's say that the rich man of Xiaowangzhuang spent twelve taels of silver, and after he made a contract with the Jiang family of Dawangzhuang, he looked forward to marrying Jiang Cuilian into the door as soon as possible. How could Jiang Cuilian be still young, and she didn't want to see her son Wan Fuxiang, so she went to the city to work. Magnum personally went to Jiang's house to tell Jiang's mother several times, and Jiang's mother postponed it again and again on the grounds that "Cuilian is too young and works outside, and she will talk about it in a few years".

In the winter of the twenty-fifth year of Guangxu, universal lung disease recurred, he was bedridden, and handed over all the affairs of the family to his son Wan Fuxiang to take care of. But this Wan Fuxiang is addicted to gambling, and when his father is in charge, he can only ask his father for change to "play"; Since he became the head of the house, he has become "wealthy"! Every time, it is a few taels or dozens of taels of silver to win or lose.

Sit and eat the mountain empty, and gamble on the ground. Wan Fuxiang has been in charge for more than a year, and he has almost lost the furniture that Magnum saved! In the spring of the twenty-seventh year of Guangxu, Wan Fuxiang not only lost all his family property, but also left a lot of debts, and had no money to marry Jiang Cuilian, which made him embarrassed to go to Jiang's house. But he still didn't change his gambling nature, demolishing the east wall to make up the west wall to borrow money to gamble, and if he really didn't have any money, he cheated, stole, and even robbed.

On the evening of March 17, the 27th year of Guangxu, after Wan Fuxiang lost all the borrowed money in Dawangzhuang, he was about to go home dejectedly, but met a single woman with a big burden on her back at the corner of the street. He looked at each other vaguely in the dark for a moment, déjà vu, but not familiar; I think it's a foreigner who came here to join my family. So I snatched the woman's baggage, hoping that there was something valuable in it, and I could change it to gamble for a night or two.

Wan Fuxiang, who was both guilty and a little complacent, took the stolen baggage home and opened it to see that there were four bright gold bars inside, which made him very happy!

Ha ha! Four gold bars is not a small amount! I can take it to the casino and flip through it, one over two, two over four, four over eight, and I'll be done!

Wait! What if I lose my luck and gamble badly, and I can't turn it over, and I lose four gold bars? Am I going to be a pauper again? Don't have the money to marry Jiang Cuilian again?

No way! I can't gamble anymore! I will use these four gold bars to go to the city to buy a house and property; and also to bring his father to the city for healing; Then he asked around to find Jiang Cuilian, who was a worker, and married Jiang Cuilian into the door. In the future, what kind of business will you do, make money continuously, and enjoy the happy life of urban people from now on.

The ancients said: "Knowing can be changed, and good is great." "After Wan Fuxiang got four gold bars, he didn't take them to the casino to gamble; Instead, he changed his ways, boldly brewed and planned a "grand plan" - he wanted to use these four gold bars to completely change his life.

If you want to change your life, you can't act rashly, and you can't make people wonder how I, Wan Fuxiang, became rich overnight; I must "taoguang and cultivate obscurity" - first work diligently and diligently, and pretend to live a thrifty life; After the autumn harvest, the rice was sold, and then the farm tools and the country property were sold, and then they could go to the city.

As the saying goes: "A skinny camel is bigger than a horse", and "a broken ship still has three pounds of nails". Although Wanjia was defeated by Wan Fuxiang, there are still more than a dozen acres of thin fields, a broken windmill, an old buffalo, and a long-term worker named Ding Changfa. Wan Fuxiang called Ding Changfa to his father's sickbed and showed the two that he was determined to wash his hands in a golden basin, stop gambling, and farm well; When you have money, you want to go to the city to live.

Wan Fuxiang's father, Magnum and Changgong Ding Changfa, were stunned when they heard the "ambition" of Wan Fuxiang, the son of the loser, - can he really change his past? He also wants to go to the city to live? Is the sun coming out of the west? The two of them will be suspicious, so they will look at the dead horse as a live horse, and see how he Wan Fuxiang plays.

As the saying goes: "The loser does not change his money when he turns back". Wan Fuxiang, who turned back suddenly, really washed his hands of gold, stopped gambling, farmed diligently, and lived frugally and simply. After autumn, a lot of rice was really harvested. Wan Fuxiang sold the rice, so he took the long-term worker Ding Changfa to the city to see the house.

People say that money is not everything, but in fact, the "ability" of money is unparalleled. Wan Fuxiang, who had money, quickly found a good courtyard in Xicheng District, Jiangzhou, and bought it in full cash. Later, he went home and sold farmland, farm tools and real estate, took his father to the city, found a famous Lang Zhong to treat Wanneng, and then began to inquire about Jiang Cuilian's whereabouts.

Hard work pays off! In the early winter, Wan Fuxiang finally found out that Jiang Cuilian was working in the famous Dragon Mansion in Jiangzhou City.

On this day, Wan Fuxiang, who was dressed up in a new way, timidly came to the luxurious Dragon Mansion and asked the gatekeepers Li Hu and Ma Long about the situation.

"Excuse me, big brother! Is this the Dragon Mansion? ”

"You don't have eyes, do you? Isn't it clearly written on this golden plaque? "Seven officials in front of the prime minister's door". Li Hu and Ma Long, the gatekeepers of the Dragon Mansion, replied angrily when they saw a person who didn't even know the Dragon Mansion, probably a hillbilly.

"Yes, yes, yes! I'm sorry! I didn't pay attention. "Wan Fuxiang is a big family in Xiaowangzhuang, but when he arrives at Jiangzhou Chenglong Mansion, he is a big witch! Therefore, he was robbed by Li Hu and Ma Long, and he didn't defend himself, but just obeyed: "May I ask if there is a person named Jiang Cuilian who works in this Dragon Mansion?" ”

"Who are you? What qualifications do you have to ask us about the Dragon Mansion? Get out of the way! "There is a rule in the Dragon Mansion: no one is allowed to reply to strangers without the master's instructions or the people in the palace to greet them in advance.

"You...... Why are you like this? Let me ask what happened to my fiancée? Why are you so fierce? Wan Fuxiang is a boy from a rich family, and he has also been "beautiful"; He had endured it for a long time, and now when he heard Li Hu and Ma Long tell him to get out, he couldn't stand it in his heart, so he roared.

"Who is so presumptuous in front of our Dragon Mansion?" Zhao Shuxian, a young grandmother who was walking in the vestibule, heard that there was a noise at the door, so she ran over to ask about the situation.

"Grandma! This person wanted to find Jiang Cuilian, and said that Jiang Cuilian was his fiancée; I told him to go, and he yelled! Li Hu and Ma Long reported truthfully.

"What? Are you looking for Jiang Cuilian? Jiang Cuilian is your fiancée? What is your name? As soon as Zhao Shuxian heard this, she suddenly came to her senses, so she hurriedly stepped forward to interrogate the visitor.

"Grandma! My name is Wan Fuxiang, and I am here to find Jiang Cuilian; She is my fiancée, is she in this Dragon Mansion? Wan Fuxiang heard Li Hu and Ma Long call this noble lady the eldest young grandmother, so he followed the call of the eldest young grandmother; and believed that this person must know whether Jiang Cuilian was working in Longfu, so he humbly explained his intention to Zhao Shuxian truthfully.

"Yo! Your name is Wan Fuxiang? Are you Jiang Cuilian's fiancé? You're looking for Jiang Cuilian, right? Ha ha! You've got the right person! Then I'll tell you! You Jiang Cuilian...... Zhao Shuxian couldn't help but be overjoyed, and was about to shake off Jiang Cuilian's "scandal" one by one, but was pounced on by a broken drink:

"Who is making a noise at the gate? What is this system? As early as when Wan Fuxiang said that he wanted to find Jiang Cuilian and Zhao Shuxian came out to interrogate Wan Fuxiang, someone hurriedly went inside to report this important situation to Mrs. Long. When Mrs. Long heard that Jiang Cuilian's fiancé had come to the door, and heard that it was Zhao Shuxian who was receiving her, this surprise was not trivial, and she was immediately supported by Yang Lizhu, the personal maid who had just taken office, and came to the vestibule.

As soon as Mrs. Long came to the vestibule and had not yet arrived at the gate, she heard Zhao Shuxian talking to Jiang Cuilian's fiancé, and she was about to "release poison"! Therefore, before the people arrived, they took the lead and threw out "Who is making noise at the gate?" What is this system? This is a very deterrent sentence.

OK! Zhao Shuxian saw Mrs. Long coming over with a strong voice, and she didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so she left stupidly.

When Zhao Shuxian left, Mrs. Long softened her attitude and asked Wan Fuxiang who his name was, where he lived, when he was engaged to Jiang Cuilian, and so on.

When it was "verified" that the person who came was indeed Jiang Cuilian's fiancé Wan Fuxiang, Mrs. Long estimated that Jiang Cuilian would "disappear" as soon as she went back, hiding somewhere to protect the fetus! So he told Wan Fuxiang with a pleasant face: Jiang Cuilian used to work in this Dragon Mansion, but now because of her poor health, she has asked for leave to go back to rest.

Wan Fuxiang listened to Mrs. Long's words, and knew that Jiang Cuilian was indeed working in this Dragon Mansion; But now because of physical reasons, he is no longer here - Wan Fuxiang, who got the quasi-Xin'er, thanked Mrs. Guolong very politely, and went home!

The next day, Wan Fuxiang took a car from Jiangzhou to Dawangzhuang and came to the long-lost Jiang family to look for Jiang Cuilian.

When Wan Fuxiang saw Jiang's mother, he bought a house in the city now (of course, he wouldn't say that he was rich only after robbing other people's gold bars), and also took his father to the city; and went to the Dragon Mansion to find Jiang Cuilian, and met Mrs. Long and said that Jiang Cuilian had asked for leave to come back to rest because of her poor health. Now let's see if Jiang Cuilian is in good health, and I want to discuss with Jiang Cuilian what date to set and get married as soon as possible.

After listening to Wan Fuxiang's words, Jiang Mu knew that he was now living in the city, and had already been to the Dragon Mansion and met Mrs. Long. So she followed Mrs. Long's statement and said that Jiang Cuilian was not in good health and often had a fever, and now she had gone to Shanghai to see a doctor, and she would discuss marriage after she came back.

Wan Fuxiang asked Jiang's mother again, what hospital Jiang Cuilian saw in Shanghai, and he wanted to go to Shanghai to find Jiang Cuilian. Jiang's mother replied that she didn't know exactly what hospital she was in, and she asked a friend to help her find a famous doctor. Wan Fuxiang was helpless when he heard this, so he had to go back.

Later, Wan Fuxiang came twice, and Jiang's mother prevaricated with her previous words; Wan Fuxiang was skeptical, but he had no reason to doubt, so he could only endure it for the time being.

Putting aside Wan Fuxiang's side, let's focus on Jiang Cuilian who is hiding in Qingshi Village to protect the fetus.

As mentioned earlier, Jiang Cuilian's uncle Zheng Dongshan is a snob who has no money and is not colorful, and he opens his eyes when he sees money. Although he and Zheng Jing are siblings, their personalities are very different - Zheng Jing is kind, down-to-earth, and kind; But Zheng Dongshan is shrewd, snobbish, and sophisticated. Although he is Jiang Cuilian's uncle, Jiang Cuilian's mother also gave him twenty silver yuan, but he still has a hard time, always thinking that Jiang Cuilian, who works in the dignified Dragon Mansion, works as a personal maid next to Mrs. Long, and has such a leg with Young Master Long, must be fat. Didn't Zheng Jing also say that twenty silver yuan will be used for me first, if it is not enough, I will find a way later? Where do they need to think of anything? That's a lot of silver! I'm going to make sure I can show Cuilian some color so that she can get some more silver."

Based on this idea, Zheng Dongshan always picks his nose and eyes at Jiang Cuilian, finds the bones in the eggs, and reprimands and embarrasses Jiang Cuilian in a different way.

Although Jiang Cuilian is a pregnant woman who came to protect the fetus, she has to do work every day in the Zheng family - she has to sweep the floor when she gets up in the morning, and the ground is very clean, because this is the basic skill she has practiced in Longfu; And he was very careful at his uncle's house, so he was not allowed to be disciplined in this regard. But after the ground is swept, the dustpan broom will be trained if it is not put well - according to the rules set by Zheng Dongshan: the dustpan should be placed a little far away from the gate, with the mouth facing down and the back to the sun leaning against the wall; The broom outside is placed next to the dustpan, and the broom at home is placed behind the door. But whether it is a broom outside or at home, only the tip of the broom can hit the ground, and the whole bottom of the broom cannot be touched to the ground, otherwise the broom will rot. If you forget, you will be disciplined as soon as you put it away.

After sweeping the floor, wipe the table, the rag on the table and the rag on the stove should not be mixed, and if you don't pay attention and make a mistake, you will be trained.

After the cleaning and hygiene are done, brush your teeth and wash your face. If you squeeze too much toothpaste for brushing your teeth, you have to be trained; The towel for washing the face is hung differently under it, and Qi has to be trained.

In the morning, I helped choose the dishes, and I had to be trained if I didn't make the right choice.

When you go to the river to wash rice and vegetables, whether it is a rice basket or a vegetable basket (at that time, it was all made of bamboo strips), only half of it is allowed to be wet; It's all wet, it's easy to rot, and you have to be trained.

In the afternoon, I also helped grind corn grits, corn dumplings, and pig food; The grinding strength is not great, and it has to be trained.

The bath water for bathing at night should not be too much or too hot; Too much, hot is a waste, to be trained.

If you speak inappropriately and are not shrewd, you will be reprimanded.

If you don't take the initiative and do things inappropriately, you should be trained.

……

In short, as Han Yu said in "The Explanation of Further Study": "After the journey, you will be blamed at every turn." "If there is a slight mistake, you will be reprimanded - poor Jiang Cuilian is like raising a crane under the bed - the food is delicious and it is difficult to lift her head.

Fortunately, Jiang Cuilian's aunt Chen Guifang is reasonable, helps Jiang Cuilian everywhere, protects Jiang Cuilian, and refutes her husband's fault; Jiang Cuilian's life is not very sad, so she has never fallen out with her uncle. And when leaving, my mother also repeatedly told me not to quarrel with my uncle, and if I was wronged, I must rub my stomach and endure it. So Jiang Cuilian had no choice but to grit her teeth and endure humiliation - endure her uncle's nest gas and maintain her fetal gas.
