After the beginning of spring, there is more work in the field, Yao Laohan is now more and more haggard, his body is getting worse and worse day by day, the work in the field is naturally not able to do, but he can't pull down the old face to ask for a son-in-law, seeing that other people's families are busy, but no one does their own work, Yao Laohan is very anxious, and he can't care about his leg injury, so he gritted his teeth and went to the ground, and before he did it for a few days, he fell into the field, and was seen by the villagers who were doing work next to him, and carried him back with all hands and feet.

Yao's father's illness was menacing, and he thought that it would be good to rest for a few days as before, but it was getting worse day by day, and then Yao's mother had no choice, so she had to ask her son to invite Lang Zhong to come over, Lang Zhong came to see, and didn't say anything, only left a few packets of medicine, and the medicine Yao Laohan ate it, and it didn't have any effect, but after a few days, the whole person was so thin that he lost his human shape. At this time, there were riots in Dingtao and Xiangyang, and the peasant uprisings were endless, and the vast majority of them were under the banner of "Chongwu Ye", and the imperial court was so busy that they had to send troops to suppress it.

And this tax is tantamount to adding insult to injury for the Yao family.

Yao's mother seemed to be ten years old overnight, so she had to ask someone to go to the neighboring village to discuss with the Zhang family, wanting Jin Mei to marry earlier, this is to make Yao Laohan happy, and secondly, she hopes to marry her daughter and get a bride price, so as to pass the current difficulties.

Unexpectedly, the Zhang family replied, only saying that Zhang Wang had gone to the city to catch the exam, and the marriage would not be held in the short term.

Yao's mother held the two pieces of money, but she couldn't think about it anymore, Li Zheng had already said that if every household couldn't take out the silver, as long as one person came out to be a soldier, not only did the tax not have to pay, but the court also issued a reward of 800 Wen, and the court used such means to force people to join the army.

For a time, some people in Qinghe Village who couldn't take out the silver, the men all left their wives and children at home, and joined the army one after another, and the 800 wen money they received was enough for the family for a while.

Everyone knows that the imperial court will not be able to recruit soldiers, so it will make this decision, and when these soldiers enter the army, they must also go to fight to the death with the peasant army.

The Yao family was reluctant to ask Yao Xiaoshan to go to the battlefield, but they couldn't take out the money to pay the taxes, so Yao's mother had no choice but to think about selling two acres of the family's land, so that they could pay the taxes.

But now every household in the village is unable to protect itself, and how can anyone have the spare money to come up with this amount of silver? Seeing that the deadline was approaching, Yao's mother was so worried that she couldn't sleep all night, and discussed with several other families in the village, planning to pawn the family's field to Liu Yuanwai, a big family in Yunyao Town. But the situation forced her, and Yao's mother had no choice.

At the beginning, Yao Xiaoshan wanted to join the army, and the Yao family planned to marry Yao Yun'er as a concubine, and it was this Liu Yuanwai.

Yuan Wu went into the mountains every day these days, got some Ganoderma lucidum mushrooms, mountain wild herbs and the like, took them to the pharmacies in the city, and exchanged them for some silver. But after paying the heavy taxes, there is little left on hand again.

Late at night, Yao Yuner leaned on her husband's arm, like a lazy kitten, as if she couldn't sleep enough all day, and even her appetite was small, but whenever she smelled something greasy, her stomach would be nauseous, and sometimes she couldn't help retching.

The man is busy going up the mountain these days, going out early and returning late all day long, Yao Yun'er doesn't want him to worry, he doesn't say anything, snuggled in his arms at this time, he only feels that his eyelids are sinking so much, he doesn't even want to say a word, he just wants to sleep.

Yuan Wu didn't know what he was thinking tonight, and he didn't linger with Yao Yun'er, just quietly hugged her like that, his black eyes were blazing, and it was unpredictable.

Yao Yun'er woke up from sleep, rubbed her eyes, and saw that Yuan Wu was still leaning there, holding his waist with one hand, as if he hadn't moved for a long time.

Yao Yun'er arched into his arms, and Yuan Wu came back to his senses and kissed her on the forehead.

"Xianggong, what are you thinking?" Yao Yun'er stretched out her little hand, wrapped her arms around the man's neck, and spoke softly.

Yuan Wu shook his head, suppressed the gloom in his eyes, and said, "It's nothing. ”

Yao Yun'er raised her little face, looked at the man's face, and whispered: "The way you look is very scary." ”

"Oh?" When Yuan Wu heard this, he felt amused, hugged her in his arms, leaned over and rubbed her cheeks lightly with his hawthorn.

Whenever a man himself with a beard, Yao Yun'er can't help but giggle, and this time is the same, she laughs while begging for mercy, the voice is delicate and sweet, the man listens to it, but the breathing is getting heavier.

The next day, Yao Yun'er slept until noon before getting up, she moved, but felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, she noticed that something was wrong with herself, gently unbuttoned her shirt and took a look, looking at the blood stains on the underwear, her delicate little face was white, since she came to Kwai Shui for the first time a few months ago, her letter period has not been accurate, calculate, this time she has not come for nearly two months.

She thought that she had come to Kwai Shui and supported her to change into clean clothes, but not only did her stomach hurt, but even her waist seemed to be broken. She was a little panicked, and she didn't know what was going on with her, so she just wanted to go back to her parents' house and ask her mother.

As soon as he put away his dirty clothes, Yuan Wu walked in, and seeing that Yao Yun'er's face was slightly blue, the man's heart tightened, and he stepped forward and leaned down beside Yao Yun'er, and touched her forehead with his hand to find out if she had a fever.

"Xianggong, I have a stomachache." When Yao Yun'er saw him, she was aggrieved and buried her little face in his chest, but her voice was a little coquettish.

"Is Aoi water coming?" Yuan Wu frowned slightly and took her in his arms.

Seeing Yao Yun'er nodding, Yuan Wu's tightly knit brows stretched, stroked her hair, and said in a low voice: "Don't get cold water these days, you have to rest more, you know?" ”

Yao Yun'er stretched out her little fist, gently pounded it on his chest, and whispered: "It's all your fault, I bullied me so much last night, otherwise my stomach would definitely not hurt." ”

Yuan Wu was dumbfounded, nodded, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's all my fault." ”

His voice was low and gentle, with an indescribable doting, Yao Yun'er listened to it in her ears, but her heart was sweet, she stretched out her little hand to wrap around his waist, the two snuggled for a while, and after lunch, Yao Yun'er said that she wanted to go back to her mother's house to see, Yuan Wu couldn't rest assured, so he went back with her.

When I arrived at Yao's house, I saw that only Yao's father and Jin Mei were there, and when I asked, I learned that Yao's mother and Yao Xiaoshan had gone to the fields, saying that Liu Yuanwai from Yunyao Town was coming to collect the fields, and the people who sold the land in the village rushed to the fields.

Yao Yun'er knew that her mother's family was going to sell the land, and her heart suddenly became anxious, these acres of land of the Yao family are the rations of the whole family, if it is sold, what should the family eat in the future?

When Yao Yun'er thought of this, she only felt anxious, and turned back to the man and said, "Xianggong, I want to go to the field to see." ”

Yuan Wu bowed his head and said, "I'll accompany you over." ”

The two left the house, hurried to the field, and saw from afar that the ridge was surrounded by villagers who came to sell the field, and among the villagers stood a few men dressed as housekeepers, surrounded by a rich man dressed in brocade fifty miles away.

Yao Yun'er suddenly saw that Liu Yuanwai, her heart was empty, remembering that her parents wanted to marry him as a concubine in order to make up enough money, the slender body shuddered, and couldn't help but snuggle up to Yuan Wu's side, and the man noticed her attachment, so he stretched out his big hand and grabbed her waist.

Yao's mother led Yao Xiaoshan, and was there with the surrounding villagers to look at her face, saying good things to Liu Yuanwai, and her voice was nothing more than praising her good home, hoping that Liu Yuanwai could see it and give a good price.

Yao Yun'er looked at this scene, the tip of her nose was sour, and she couldn't help but whisper to her husband: "Xianggong, my father and mother have been counting on those acres of land to eat, if the land is sold, what should they eat in the future?" ”

Yuan Wu lowered his eyes, saw Yao Yun'er's little face pale and full of anxiety, his heart softened, he held her little hand, and said: "You go and tell your mother-in-law that she will sell the land to us, and you don't have to write any land deeds, and when you collect the grain in the future, give us a few bags." ”

Yao Yun'er was stunned, and immediately understood what the man meant, Yuan Wu was a butcher, so he didn't need to farm, so it was just to let the Yao family keep their own land.

Yao Yun'er's heart was sour, she couldn't tell what it was like, Yuan Wu's face was as usual, she squeezed her little hand, and ordered, "Go ahead." ”

Yao Yun'er nodded, hurried to the ridge of the field, squeezed through the crowd, found Yao's mother, and said, "Mother, don't sell the land to Liu Yuanwai, the prime minister just said, you sell the land to us, and when you receive the grain, just give us some rations." ”

When Yao's mother heard this, she was shocked and said, "Uncle really said that? ”

Seeing her daughter nodding, Yao's mother was stunned for a moment, and as soon as she turned her head, she saw that Liu Yuanwai had already taken over her own land deed from Li Zheng, and she was about to accept it. Liu Yuanwai still went to buy other ones, and our family is not for sale! ”

Liu Yuanwai was caught off guard, and was pushed by Yao's mother, and the family next to him hurriedly supported his body, and immediately someone pushed Yao's mother over, shouting: "Where did the shrew come from, dare to be presumptuous in front of our master?" ”

Yao's mother was pushed to the ground by the family, still holding her own land deed tightly in her hand, as if those few pieces of paper were more precious than her life.

"Mother!" Yao Yun'er saw her mother fall, and hurriedly ran over to help her mother up, her voice was delicate and sweet, and as soon as she called out, she attracted Liu Yuanwai's attention.

The woman in front of her was only sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a jingchai cloth skirt, but she had a snow-white melon seed face, a pair of apricot eyes that could hook a man's soul, and she seemed to be able to drip water.

After thinking about it, I suddenly remembered that I had a concubine last year, and the matchmaker said that in this Qinghe Village, there is a girl of the Yao family, who looks more iconic than the beauty on the silk painting, he only said that the matchmaker said nonsense, but now that I look at it, I think that the girl of the Yao family in Qinghe Village must be the woman in front of her.

Seeing that Liu Yuanwai was looking at herself without blinking, Yao Yun'er couldn't help but feel worried in her heart, after helping Yao's mother, the mother and daughter were just about to leave, but Liu Yuanwai chased after her, and regardless of the surrounding villagers, she arched her hand at Yao Yun'er and said, "Little lady, please stay." ”

Yao Yun'er saw that he looked modest, his clothes were gorgeous, and there was not the slightest rudeness around him, so he stopped there and looked at him suspiciously with his mother.

Liu Yuanwai is a person who has seen the world, a few years ago he has been running around outside, taking advantage of the "Lingnan Army" when he made a few windfalls, and the beauty has naturally seen a lot, but now he takes a closer look, and he feels that if he talks about beauty, the woman in front of him is the only one he has seen in his life.

"Dare to ask the lady and the little lady if their surname is Yao?" Liu Yuanwai secretly admired, and his words were extremely kind, which caused the surrounding villagers to look at each other, I don't know how Liu Yuanwai, who had no one in his eyes, could be so kind to the mother and daughter of the Yao family.

Yao Yun'er and Yao's mother glanced at each other, I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in this Liu Yuanwai's gourd, Yao's mother held her daughter's hand, and just about to speak, she heard a calm and powerful male voice, it was Yuan Wu.

"If you have something to say outside, you might as well talk to you."

Liu Yuanwai raised his eyes, and saw that there was a tall, heroic-looking man in front of him, and after seeing this person's face clearly, Liu Yuanwai's pupils suddenly shrank sharply, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying, and took a few steps back, pointed to the man in front of him with one hand, and said several "you" in a row...... You...... You ......" but he couldn't say the words, his face was like dirt, and he was obviously terrified.

The family on the side hurriedly stepped forward to help Liu Yuanwai, I don't know what happened to my master, why did I see a villager, I was afraid that it would be like this.

On the other hand, Yuan Wu's face still did not change, his burly figure was unobstructed, and his black eyes were so deep that he dared not dare to look at him.

Liu Yuan was bloodless outside, his whole body trembled uncontrollably, and after a long while, he tried his best to stabilize his figure, and he didn't dare to look at Yuan Wu again, and he didn't even take the field, and ordered to the family behind him: "Hurry, go quickly!" ”

The family looked at each other, as if they couldn't figure out why their master would be abnormal, it can be seen that Liu Yuanwai was urging urgently, and the group left Qinghe Village in a hurry, and provoked Li to chase after a group of villagers, but no matter how they chased, Liu Yuanwai did not stop, got on a sedan chair after leaving the ridge, and walked away in a moment.

After Liu Yuanwai left, Yao Yun'er shook her husband's sleeve with some anxiety, and said puzzledly: "Xianggong, why did Liu Yuanwai scare away when he saw you?" ”

Yuan Wu didn't admit that he would live in seclusion here, and he would be recognized, and when he saw Liu Yuanwai's reaction, he knew that he must have seen himself before, and if his whereabouts were passed on by him, it would be very tricky, and at the moment, it was necessary to cut down the grass and eradicate it.

Thinking of this, Yuan Wu looked at Yao Yun'er, snorted slightly, and said, "I'm not a man-eating tiger, how can I scare him away?" After speaking, before the little lady could speak, the man instructed again: "Okay, you go home with your mother-in-law first, and I'll go to the mountains to have a look, I'm afraid I'll come back a little later." ”

Yao Yun'er knew that the family didn't have much money, and now she was going to buy her mother's land, so Yuan Wuding was going to the mountains to find something to exchange for silver. At the moment, he was worried: "Then you should be careful on the road." ”

Yuan Wu bowed lightly, hugged his fist with Yao's mother and saluted, before striding away.

"Master, what's wrong with you, why don't you accept it, just let us go back?" The group was in a hurry, and the housekeeper of Liu's Mansion approached the sedan chair and whispered to the man in the sedan chair.

Liu Yuanwai lifted the sedan curtain from time to time and instructed the housekeeper: "Quick, look back, is there anyone chasing after you?" ”

The housekeeper didn't know why, so he looked back, but saw that there were few people around.

Liu Yuan ordered his family to stay on the Dingshe Road, and went on this wilderness trail, and did not return to Yunyao Town, but went directly to Jingzhou City.

"Don't worry, no one is chasing you, master." The housekeeper opened his mouth, and saw that Liu Yuan was pale outside, with a layer of cold sweat on his forehead, obviously he was greatly frightened, and he was even more puzzled in his heart, and said: "Master, who is that person just now, why did he surprise the master like this?" ”

Liu Yuanwai took a deep breath, raised his sleeves to wipe the sweat beads off his forehead, and was silent for a long time before he trembled his voice and slowly said three words.

As soon as the words fell, the butler's face also changed, and he immediately said: "Is the master mistaken, the servant heard that the man has already been cut down by General Ling, and his subordinates and relatives have all been shown to the public, so how can he be in this place?" ”

Liu Yuanwai's eyelids trembled slightly, and said: "No, I will never be mistaken, three years ago in Heishui County, I saw him once, and I will never forget it in my life!" Liu Yuanwai said, paused, and said: "It has always been rumored among the people that he was seriously injured back then, but he did not die, especially in Lingnan, every household worships him as a god, even this Dingtao, Xiangyang riots, those peasant armies have also played his name, if this person is not removed, the court will be in endless trouble." ”

The housekeeper pondered for a moment, and then said, "Then the master is going to Jingzhou City to report to the official?" ”

Liu Yuanwai nodded and said: "Yes, the imperial court has been chasing and killing the remnants of the Lingnan Army all these years, if we reveal the whereabouts of this person to the government, we will definitely have to make a big contribution, maybe in the future, it will be just around the corner." ”

Liu Yuanwai said, then smiled, Xu is this journey has been smooth, seeing that he is about to arrive in Jingzhou, his heart is becoming more and more steady, and the previous panic and anxiety gradually receded.

Suddenly, the palanquin man stopped. Liu Yuanwai's heart sank, and when he opened the sedan curtain, he saw a black shadow standing in front of him, the person was against the light, and he couldn't see his face clearly, he could only see that this person was burly and full of murderous aura, only after countless bloody rains and bloody winds, people who calmly faced life and death would have such a strong and fierce murderous aura.

Liu Yuanwai suddenly panicked, and was helped out of the sedan chair by the housekeeper, and the family members looked at the man in front of them, thinking that they had encountered a gangster in the mountain, and they all drew their knives to show the guys, and protected Liu Yuanwai.

Seeing the man approaching step by step, Liu Yuanwai's hand trembled more and more, and after seeing the face of the person who came, his knees were weak, if he hadn't been held by the housekeeper, he was afraid that he would have collapsed on the ground.

The person who came was Yuan Wu.

The man's face was cold, and there was no trace of vitality around his body, and he took out the sharp knife at his waist, but when he saw the cold light flashing, those family members didn't even see how he made his hand, and they were killed with a knife.

Liu Yuanwai's face turned pale, and the housekeeper was also shocked, and after coming back to his senses, he withdrew the hand that was supporting Liu Yuanwai's body, turned around and ran.

Yuan Wu toeed a little, raised a long knife from the ground, and threw the knife out with a force, passing the butler through his chest, and the butler didn't even snort, and fell to the ground.

Liu Yuanwai collapsed to the ground, his pupils were cloudy, his face was as pale as dirt, and when he saw Yuan Wu walking towards him, he couldn't hold back anymore, knelt down in front of Yuan Wu, and said repeatedly: "Chongwu Ye spares his life!" Grandpa spares his life! ”

Looking at Liu Yuanwai who was shaking on the ground, a cold light flashed in the man's dark eyes, and his indifferent tone was even more calm: "Liu Yuanwai, let's meet again." ”

Liu Yuanwai's whole body trembled like chaff, and he didn't dare to reply when he heard the man's voice, so he kept kowtowing.

When Liu Yuanwai heard this, he suddenly knew that he no longer had the possibility of living, and he couldn't even kneel, and his whole body was paralyzed, like a mess of mud.

"Chongwu Ye spare his life, spare his life!" Liu Yuan turned it over and over again, and would only say this sentence.

"It's really dirty to kill people like you." The man spoke lightly, finished speaking, and the knife fell from his hand, and Liu Yuan's blood splashed three feet, and his head fell to the ground.

When Yuan Wu returned, it was already dark.

Yao Yun'er had already prepared the meal, put it in the pot and warmed it, and just waited for the man to come back and eat it. Hearing her husband's footsteps, Yao Yun'er hurriedly greeted her, and saw Yuan Wu striding into the night.

"Xianggong." When Yao Yun'er saw him, she greeted him happily, Yuan Wu stretched out his hand and took her in his arms, and as soon as he entered the yard, he smelled the fragrance of food, and suddenly felt hungry and panicked.

"What do you do, so fragrant?" The man sniffed, but he really couldn't guess what his little lady had made.

Yao Yun'er pursed her lips and smiled, and said softly: "When I went home, I saw Aunt Jiang's bean noodles spread out at home, and they were drying at the door, so I took a small piece of cured meat, exchanged two loads with her, and went home and boiled soup with bacon bones, stir-fried the bean cake with the soup, and added some chili peppers, onions and garlic into it, you must love to eat it." ”

Looking at the little lady's smiling face, Yuan Wu's eyebrows were soft, leaned over and kissed her on the cheek, and said with a smile: "Then quickly bring it out for me to taste." ”

Yao Yun'er smiled skillfully, agreed gently, and hurriedly went to the stove room, laid out the meal for the man, and let him eat a hot meal.

After eating, Yuan Wu took out the silver, handed it to Yao Yun'er, and said, "You send these to your mother-in-law tomorrow, and ask her to pay the taxes, and you take the rest, and buy some if you want." ”

Yao Yun'er suddenly saw so much silver, so she was stunned, and whispered: "Xianggong, why is there so much silver?" ”

Yuan Wu smiled faintly, pinched her little face, and said, "I happened to find a mountain ginseng on the mountain, and I took it to the city to sell it, and I got this silver." ”

Yao Yun'er didn't doubt anything else, hearing Yuan Wu say this, her little face suddenly showed a smile, her eyes were also shining, and she said, "This mountain ginseng is so valuable?" ”

Yuan Wu nodded, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, and said yes.

Looking at her smiling like a flower, Yuan Wu couldn't help but caress her little face, pulled her into his arms, and said softly: "Does your stomach still hurt?" ”

As soon as Yao Yun'er heard this, the smile on the corner of her lips disappeared, she bowed her head lightly, and said: "Not only does my stomach hurt, but my waist hurts too." ”

Yuan Wu frowned and said, "You go to the bed to rest first, and I'll ask a Lang Zhong to come over." ”

Seeing that he was leaving, Yao Yun'er hurriedly grabbed him, her little face was slightly red, she lowered her eyes, and whispered: "Xianggong, don't worry, I asked my mother today, and my mother said that when a woman comes to Kwai Shui, stomach and back pain are the most common, as long as it takes a few days." ”

Yuan Wu is well versed in the affairs of men and women, and knows that Yao's mother is right, but it can be seen that Yao Yun'er's face is still pale, and she is still very distressed, holding her to sit in her arms, and her big hands are caressing her waist and gently rubbing it to relieve her discomfort.

Yao Yun'er leaned on his arms and whispered again: "Xianggong, my mother also said that women will only have little dolls when they come to Kwai Shui, I really hope that I come every day, so that we will have little dolls." ”

When Yuan Wu heard this, he shook his head helplessly, couldn't help but smile, and said, "Fool." ”

At night, Yao Yun'er slept very early, Yuan Wu hugged her waist, saw that her little face was like green jade, her eyes were slightly dark, not as white and red as before, her eyes were burning, and gently held her wrist to probe her pulse.

Yao Yun'er's pulse was thin, obviously due to her weak body and loss of qi and blood since she was a child, and she couldn't see anything else, Yuan Wu was not a doctor after all, thinking that she would still go to the town tomorrow to invite a Langzhong to take a look at the little lady. By the way, let's go and inquire about Liu Yuanwai's affairs again.

And so the night passed.

Early the next morning, Yao Yun'er fell asleep in a drowsy manner, and when she noticed the movement beside her, she tried her best to open her eyes, Yuan Wu had already gotten up, and after getting dressed, she turned around and saw Yao Yun'er lying there, with her eyes open, looking at herself innocently.

He returned to the bedside, leaned down to brush the broken hair on his forehead for Yao Yun'er, and said softly: "You fall asleep first, I'll go to the city, don't wait for me for lunch, eat more by yourself." ”

"Xianggong, are you going out again?" Yao Yun'er held his hand, only to feel uncomfortable all over her body, her lower abdomen hurt more and more, and her attachment to men involuntarily deepened.

Yuan Wu was helpless, and coaxed in a low voice: "I'll go and ask for a doctor, or I'll be back soon." ”

"Don't go." Yao Yun'er shook his sleeve and spoke softly.

Seeing her looking at herself pitifully, Yuan Wu's heart suddenly softened, and he had to sigh and say, "Okay, I'm not leaving." ”

In the afternoon, Yao Yun'er felt a lot more relaxed, so she got out of bed, planning to send the silver to her mother's family.

Yuan Wu wanted to accompany her, but who knew that the Gao family in the south of the village was going to do a happy event in a few days, and specially invited Yuan Wu to slaughter pigs at home, Yao Yuner hurriedly said that she was fine, and asked him to help, Yuan Wu saw that her face was much better than yesterday, so he sent her all the way to her mother's house, and then walked towards the Gao family.

Yao Yun'er looked at her husband's back, a smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and she was just about to knock on the door, when she saw that the door of her mother's house was opened, and it was not someone else who came out, but the matchmaker in the village.

"Granny Chen?" When Yao Yun'er saw her, a wave of surprise surged in her heart, and she didn't know how she could come out of her mother's house with such a good look.

When Mrs. Chen saw her, she squeezed out a smile, stepped forward and patted her little hand, and said, "I haven't seen her for a few days, Yun'er is getting more and more smart." ”

Yao Yun'er saw that her expression was different, and her eyes suddenly floated with a touch of melancholy, and she ignored Mrs. Chen's greetings, and said, "Granny Chen, do you have something to do with my house?" ”

Granny Chen paused, and then said: "The old body is here for your second sister's business, maybe you don't know yet, that Zhang Wang is in high school, and he will be the old man in the future, and the old lady of the Chen family is not a good stubble, and the son has just been lifted here, so he called the old body over, saying that he wants to divorce your second sister, and then let the old body find a daughter from a big family for her son, so that she can be a daughter-in-law." ”

As soon as Yao Yun'er heard this, she suddenly felt like five thunderbolts, not to mention a small place like Qinghe Village, even Yunyao Town or Jingzhou City, if a woman is divorced by the man's family, she will be regarded as an abandoned woman, but she can't raise her head for the rest of her life, and even the woman's family will be pointed at, if you want to marry someone in the future, it will be really difficult.

Yao Yun'er thought of this, and even her voice became hurried: "How can this Zhang family bully people like this, the second sister and Zhang Xiucai are baby relatives, how can their family say that they will retreat?" ”

Granny Chen also sighed: "No, this Zhang family can really do it, and they are not afraid of hurting Yin De, the old body will not help their family anymore, Yun'er, you go back and persuade your second sister, if there is a good family in the future, the old body will definitely help her pay attention to it, let her do stupid things, ah?" ”

Yao Yun'er was in a state of confusion, and after Granny Chen left, as soon as she entered the gate of Yao's house, she saw the eldest girl and the second girl playing in the yard.

Yao Yun'er took out the chestnut candy she brought, gave it to the two little girls to eat, and told them not to run around, and then walked towards the hall.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw that Yao's mother and Jin Mei were there, but the two of them did not have the look of death and grief on their faces as Yao Yun'er thought, especially Jin Mei, after seeing Yao Yun'er, her face even turned slightly red, and she stood up and said, "Yun'er is back?" ”

"Second sister, ...... you" Yao Yun'er felt strange, she thought that Jin Mei would be slumped by this blow, but seeing that she was no different from usual at this time, it only made her puzzled.

When Yao's mother saw Yun'er, she said to Jin Mei: "Jin Mei, you go to the stove room first, my mother has something to say to Yun'er." ”

"Hey." Yao Jinmei agreed, and walked towards the stove room, when she passed by Yao Yun'er, Yao Jinmei couldn't help but glance at her sister, but a trace of guilt floated in her eyes, so she just lowered her head silently and walked out.

"Mother, I saw Granny Chen just now, I have heard about the second sister, don't take it to heart, wait for us to find a good family in the future, and then help the second sister ......"

"Yun'er!" Without waiting for her daughter to finish speaking, Yao's mother interrupted Yao Yun'er's words.

Seeing her daughter Qing Lingling's eyes, Yao's mother felt a little unbearable, but when she thought of Jin Mei, she gritted her teeth and said to Yao Yun'er: "Yun'er, my mother told you the truth, this Zhang family postponed the marriage date one after another, and my mother guessed that there would be such a day, my mother thought, they are all sisters, if we can be together, we can also take care of it, and my son-in-law has a good heart, as long as you agree, he will not say anything, my mother also told your second sister, and your second sister is also willing, so my mother came to discuss with you, you ......"

"Mother, what do you say?" Yao Yun'er didn't wait for her mother to finish speaking, her little face turned pale, she looked at her mother in disbelief, and said in a trembling voice, "Are you going to marry the second sister to the father-in-law?" ”

Yao's mother's old face was hot, and she said stubbornly: "I can't say whether to marry or not, Yun'er, you are Yuan Wutang who married into the door, and your mother will naturally not let you be wronged, and this grievance is also Jin Mei, when she passes the door, she can still help you do housework on weekdays, and if you have a child in the future, you can also let her help take care of it, you have not been in good health since you were a child, with your second sister here, you can live more comfortably in the future, and your mother is also for your good ......"

"Mother," Yao Yun'er's tears welled up all of a sudden, shaking her head, and her tone trembled even more, "You can't be like this, I have a good life with my father-in-law, how can you marry the second sister?" ”

Yao's mother looked at Yao Yun'er's little face, and her heart was also painful, but when she thought of the fate of her eldest daughter, she only let her hold Yao Yun'er's hand and said, "Yun'er, you just listen to your mother's words and agree, think about your eldest sister, do you want to force your second sister to be as willing as your eldest sister?" My mother has raised you for so many years, and there is no credit and hard work, and at the beginning, if it wasn't for Jin Mei's marriage, what should she marry in this marriage, you married a good man, can you bear to see that your second sister can't marry for the rest of her life? ”

Yao Yun'er looked at her tearful mother, thinking of the eldest sister who was killed by a head, her heart hurt like a knife, she sat there, only to feel that her throat was choked badly, and finally said a few words intermittently: "We can ask the matchmaker to tell the second sister a good family, you let the second sister marry Xianggong, someone else...... People gossip too......"

"Who can this divorced woman marry? Even if they get married, they are all men who can't be seen, maybe worse than Wang Dachun. Yun'er, I'm begging you, think about your father, I haven't dared to tell him that Jin Mei was divorced by the Zhang family, you said that if he knew, what should he do! ”

Yao's mother said, she also cried, and actually stood up and made a gesture to kneel down to Yao Yun'er, so shocked that Yao Yun'er held her up, and the tears kept falling.

"Child, if your father begs you, you should repay your father and mother for raising her for so many years, and you will agree!" Yao's mother shook her daughter's hand, and every sentence smashed on Yao Yuner's heart.

Yao Yun'er sobbed, unable to speak anymore, only tears crackling and falling.

At this moment, a crisp children's voice came from outside the house: "Auntie, uncle is here!" ”

Yuan Wu finished killing pigs in Gao's house, and he remembered Yao Yun'er in his heart, so he came to pick up his little lady, but as soon as he entered the gate of Yao's house, he heard Yao Yun'er's cry, and his black sword eyebrows were wrinkled, and he strode towards the hall.

When Yao Yun'er heard the familiar footsteps, she was sad and couldn't bear it, and ran out in a hurry, just when she met Yuan Wu head-on, the grievances in her heart couldn't be held back any longer, and she just called "Xianggong ......" and buried it in his arms, crying.

Yuan Wu's eyes looked at Yao's mother, and as soon as Yao's mother met those sharp and deep black eyes, her heart couldn't stop trembling, and she even forgot to say hello, so she just stood there in a daze, unable to speak.

"Don't cry, who bullied you?" The man spoke in a deep voice, grabbed Yao Yun'er's shoulder with his big hand, looked at her with tears on his face, and his eyes couldn't help but feel full of pity.

Yao Yun'er raised her little face, looked at the handsome and burly man in front of her, remembered her mother's words, but her heart was throbbing for a while, she opened her mouth, and before she could speak, she felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, which made her eyes black, and her slender body was as light as a feather, and she fell into the man's arms like that.

Yuan Wu watched his little lady fall in front of him, his black eyes suddenly darkened to the core, he called her name in a low voice, and as soon as he held Yao Yun'er in his arms, his big hand had already touched the sticky blood.

He looked at the red in his palm, his face suddenly turned iron-blue, and his eyes were cracked in the deep pupils.

Yao's mother was also stunned when she saw this scene, and after her son-in-law hurriedly left with her daughter in her arms, she also led Jin Mei and rushed to Yuan's house together.

Yuan family.

After Lang Zhong walked out of the house, Yuan Wu immediately greeted him, his face was extremely anxious, and his voice was hoarse and obscure, and he said word for word: "How is my lady?" ”

"Yuan Xianggong don't worry, your lady is pregnant, it has been more than two months, I'm afraid that I haven't recuperated these days, and I am frightened, and there is a slippery fetus now, wait for me to prescribe medicine, and rest for a while, and it will be fine."

When Yuan Wu heard this, his tense body suddenly relaxed, and after thanking the doctor, he rushed into the inner room non-stop to see Yao Yun'er.

Yao Yun'er's little face was snow-white, lying on the bed weakly, her eyes were closed, tears were still there, Yuan Wu saw her lips trembling lightly, as if she was talking in a dream, he looked at his heart tightly, leaned over and put his ears up, and after hearing the little lady's whispering, Shenjun's face suddenly turned cold.

Yao's mother and Jin Mei were standing in the courtyard, and as soon as they sent Lang Zhong out of the door, they saw Yuan Wu walking out of the back room.

Seeing him, Yao's mother stepped forward and said, "Uncle, what's wrong with Yun'er?" ”

The man's lips were pursed, and there was a touch of cold that people dared not approach, and when he was looking forward to it, he was not angry.

"She's pregnant." The man's voice was deep and his words were powerful.

When Yao's mother and Yao Jinmei heard this, they were stunned, especially Yao's mother, who was even more shocked and inexplicable, and said, "That Yun'er's child ......"

"Lang Zhong said that Yun'er was frightened and had a slippery tire." Yuan Wu's voice was neither high nor low, and it was extremely silent, listening to the ears of the Yao family's mother and daughter, but it made people panic for no reason.

"So, what should I do?" Yao's mother was both weak and guilty, and only rubbed her hands, not knowing what to do.

"Yuan Wu has something to tell his mother-in-law." Yuan Wu raised his eyes and looked at the mother and daughter in front of him, those black eyes were like a black pool, cold, and the mother and daughter of the Yao family were shocked as soon as they met his gaze.

"Uncle has something to say, please say." Yao's mother chuckled in her heart and whispered.

"Since I got married to Yun'er, I have asked myself if I am worthy of the Yao family, and I also hope that my mother-in-law understands that if it weren't for Yun'er, I wouldn't care about these idle things, as for why Yun'er was frightened, my mother-in-law also knows it, and I don't need to say more."

When Yao's mother heard this, her face suddenly became hot and ashamed, and she was just about to say a few more words, when she heard the man's voice sound again: "My Yuan Wu's wife, only Yao Yun'er is alone, and my mother-in-law will put away those thoughts and take your daughter, please go back." ”

Yao's mother saw that the man had given an eviction order, and she panicked in her heart, and as soon as she called "Uncle ......", she saw the man's face sank, and said: "The same thing, don't let me say it a second time, go out!" ”

Yao's mother was stunned for a moment, and when she saw that the man's eyes were full of yin owls, she didn't dare to talk anymore, she just stood there, and her whole body couldn't help but tremble.

Yao Jinmei saw her mother like this, and as soon as she shouted "brother-in-law......" she heard the man suddenly drink a word: "Get out!" She was startled, and couldn't help but take a few steps back, but her eyes suddenly turned red.

Yao's mother tried her best to stabilize her mind, pulled her daughter with one hand, and said to Yuan Wu: "Since my uncle doesn't show us mercy, we will naturally not come to the gate of the Yuan family in the future, but Yun'er is weak, and Aunt Lao will take care of her." ”

After speaking, Yao's mother couldn't stay any longer, so she led Jin Mei and the mother and son out of Yuan's house together.

After they left, Yuan Wu closed the door tightly, hurried his steps, and walked towards the inner room again.

Yao Yun'er woke up, it was already dark, and as soon as she moved, she heard a male voice beside her: "Awake?" ”

When she opened her eyes, she saw Yuan Wu guarding by her side, and when she woke up, a faint smile suddenly appeared on Yingting's face.

"Xianggong ......" Yao Yun'er looked at the man, and remembered the words that her mother said to her when she was at her mother's house, and she only held the man's shirt tightly at the moment, and the water in her beautiful pupils was shallow, and before she could speak, her eyes were red.

"My mother said that I want to marry my second sister to you......"

When Yuan Wu heard this, a trace of helplessness appeared between his eyebrows, and he stretched out his big hand to wipe away the tears for her, but he couldn't help but scold: "She said that she would marry if she married, who do you think of your father-in-law?" ”

Yao Yun'er's heart was sour, and she said: "But my mother said, you have a good heart, as long as I am willing, you must be willing to ......."

"Would you like to?" Yuan Wu frowned slightly, staring at his little lady tightly.

Yao Yun'er's tears suddenly rolled down, and she lay there shaking her head desperately: "I don't want to, I don't want to be at all, I don't want my second sister to marry you!" No matter what the second sister asks me for, I can give it to her, but you can't, she can't want you! ”

Seeing her crying sadly, Yuan Wu's heart softened, picked her up from the bed, leaned on his arms, wiped her tears for her, and whispered: "Fool, I don't want anyone but you." ”

When Yao Yun'er heard this, she stretched out her little hand to hug his body, and choked up: "Xianggong, you really won't marry the second sister?" ”

Yuan Wu glanced at her, tightened her body, and said two words in a deep voice: "No." ”

Yao Yun'er buried her body in his arms, and after a long while, she spoke out glutinously: "But if we don't agree, will my mother be angry?" ”

"Don't worry about it so much, as long as you take care of your body for me in the future, both mother and son will be safe, you know?"

"Mother and son?" When Yao Yun'er heard these three words, she immediately stopped crying, raised her little face from the man's arms, and looked at him in surprise.

Yuan Wu's heart softened, pinched her little face, and said, "Yes, mother and son, I haven't told you yet, you are pregnant, and it has been more than two months." ”

Yao Yun'er was completely stunned.

When she came back to her senses, her little hand gently stroked her lower abdomen, and she said in disbelief: "We have a little doll?" He's in my belly? ”

Yuan Wu's eyes fell on her lower abdomen, and her eyes were indescribably gentle, she stroked her big hand, rubbed it gently, and said, "There is such a confused mother, I don't know if I have a child." ”

Yao Yun'er stroked her lower abdomen, but her heart was soft, looking at her stupid appearance, the man smiled lightly, got up and brought the medicine bowl over, handed it to Yao Yun'er's lips, and said softly: "Okay, drink the medicine while it's hot." ”

Yao Yun'er looked at the thick black medicinal juice in front of her, but suddenly remembered that her lower body would always bleed faintly in the past few days, she just thought that she had come to Kwai Shui, but she didn't expect to have a child!

Drinking the bowl of thick black medicinal juice without a drop, Yao Yuner stroked her lower abdomen, leaned on the man's arm, and her heart was indescribably warm and steady, with this child, she had already forgotten everything that happened in Yao's house, and only listened to the man's words wholeheartedly, and kept the fetus at home with peace of mind.
