Chapter 9 Neither Nor Ever Divorced

After catching the rabbit, he went around in the wild forest for a while, and hit a wild duck, estimating that the time was not early, Xue Langjing returned satisfied, and shot another pheasant on the way back.

Today's harvest is worth many days of the past, and a total of five pheasants, four hares, a wild duck, a nest of live rabbits, and a basket of wild herbs were hunted.

I also saw a sour jujube tree on the road, but the back basket was full, and she was also full of prey, there was really no place to install it, and it would take a lot of effort to remove these sour jujubes, or next time, anyway, this tree can't move the nest, just make a mark.

When a basket of green grass was picked, causing other things to only hang on his body, Xue Langjing realized that his eyelids were still too shallow before, except for those herbs, a basket of wild vegetables was not worth a few dollars at all, it was better to hunt a few more prey, and there were more good things in the depths, so there was really no need to pick them on the periphery.

Next time, I won't pick any of the wild vegetables outside that aren't worth much, and leave them to the other poor people.

She only picks valuable ones, and she puts everything in the back basket today, resulting in some good things in the back that can't be loaded, so she can only mark them and keep them for next time.

On the way back, she was surprised by the villagers passing by, and joked that she had taken a lot of luck today, and how any hares and pheasants had hit her, so that she had caught so much, and she only laughed and said that she was lucky.

After Xue Langjing arrived home, the Xue family happened to be in the yard, the old man Xue was sitting on the threshold smoking an old cigarette stick, the two Xue Yuhe brothers were sitting together and didn't know what they were talking about, and the women of the Tang family were working with the Xue sisters to tidy up the wild vegetables on the ground.

The Xue family now only has two acres of thin fields, and there is no need for so many people to go to the fields to serve, and the Xue sisters usually go out to dig wild vegetables in addition to housework, and when there are no wild vegetables to dig, they sit at home and embroider.

Now is the season to dig wild vegetables, but unfortunately there are many people digging up, so there are not many wild vegetables on the ground, and everyone's harvest will not be too big, and it seems that they will not be back for long.

The sisters, like her, are miserable.

It's just that she is now a serf and singing, and the sisters are still far away, and there is really a long way to go if they want to live a good life together.

Xue Langjing was able to bring back so many prey, which was naturally the happiest thing for the Xue family, who were now almost destitute, and praised the granddaughter (daughter, niece) of the old lady Xue, who had a somewhat drooping face and a sad face.

Aren't they happy that they hadn't seen her hunt so much prey one day?

"Big girl, hurry up and boil the pot of hot water to wash your sister, look at the dirty on her body, she has been in the mountains for a day, and it must be uncomfortable to wear dirty clothes", before Xue Langjing put down the things she was holding, Mrs. Xue hurriedly ordered to open it.

"Hey", Xue Lin answered quietly and went back to the house to boil water.

Xue Langjing, who had been walking all day, was also a little tired at this time and didn't want to speak.

Carefully put down the cloth bag containing the hare, this bag has to start at least forty pounds, and the hare that is still scurrying in the cloth bag is even heavier, and untie the dead prey hanging on the body, which adds up to more than thirty-five pounds, and a basket full of things.

Before long-term malnutrition, even if you can eat enough now, it is not a day or two can be raised, although I feel full of energy during the day, it is also relative to usual, I didn't feel much when I exercised before, and now I found that I was tired and hungry when I rested, and I didn't want to move.

And it's really tiring.

Putting down the things on his body, Xue Langjing found a low stool and sat down on the edge of the earthen wall, resting against the wall.

Mrs. Xue looked at her like that, and asked a granddaughter to come into the house to bring a bowl of water to quench her thirst, she took the bowl, and drank it without saying a word.

With these things she brought back, everyone was also busy.

Seeing the six wild eggs carried with banana leaves on the back basket, Mrs. Xue carefully took them out and said happily that she would cook two for her to eat at night.

There was only one basket left, and it took three and four of them to pour them out together, and at once the place where they had been fenced was full.

It was a mixture of herbs and wild herbs, and she didn't have the time and energy to distinguish them when she was in the mountains, so she could only dig it up and throw it into the back basket, and anyway, she had to take it out and re-pick it and tidy it up.

Those dead wild animals must be bled and cleaned up today, except for what they have eaten today, the rest must be salted and left to eat for the next few days.

This made Mrs. Xue bluntly say that it was a pity, if she was sold alive in the town, how could she sell it for a few hundred yuan, but the dead thing would turn bad if it was left for a day, and it was not good to sell it again.

Mrs. Xue said to leave one pheasant to eat tonight, and the rest was pickled, Xue Langjing thought that her sisters and sisters had almost never eaten any meat, so she left three to eat.

This can make Mrs. Xue feel distressed, where can she give up, and in the end, she will eat two.

The Xue family has a large population, several granddaughters are responsible for cooking dinner and boiling hot water, and the remaining sisters continue to sort out wild vegetables and herbs outside, so many things, some of them are busy, no matter how they say, they have to toss until tomorrow, and the three of Mrs. Xue's daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law are to bleed pheasants, hares and a duck to marinate meat.

A few men continued to sit and be uncles, and after Xue Yuhe saw the living creatures in the cloth bag, he went to bring a rabbit cage over, put all the rabbits in it, threw a few handfuls of grass to them, and the nine rabbits filled a rabbit cage that was not small.

Needless to say, according to the current situation of the Xue family, it is natural to take them to the town and sell them.

After Xue Langjing took a bath and looked more energetic, Xue's father talked to her about going to talk about quitting her relatives today, thinking that it was a matter of course that was not difficult, but the family was stunned and the family was not negotiated, and the two families were unwilling to withdraw from the family.

Anyway, this person is gone, why are these two unwilling to retreat?

Why?

Even if their Xue family wants to marry, no one can marry them!

If they don't quit their relatives, who can they marry to the Xue family!

Also, twenty taels of silver, if the two families don't give them back, they won't be able to get the money back.

Xue Langjing roared wildly in her heart, the twenty taels of silver were likely to be used on her when she got them back, could she not worry.

Not only the silver, but also a lot of gifts, all of which can be worth a lot of money.

So why?

The two brothers talked with the two families for a long time, and finally figured it out.

It just so happens that one family is famous, and one family is profitable.

When the Jiang family literally, we have passed the five ceremonies of the six rites, my family has received your red and green book paper, and your family has also received my reply, the text has passed, and my family Qianyue will sit and wait for the groom to come to marry when the day comes, how can this pro say that he will retreat.

Our Jiang family is a scholarly family, we must abide by the rules of etiquette, this girl will be a member of your Xue family in the future, and she will die as a ghost of your Xue family, your Boqing is gone, then his daughter-in-law will be widowed for him, and the bride will definitely be sent to your Xue family on the day of the wedding.

Actually?

To put it bluntly, her Jiang family's daughter is widowed like this, and the neighbors report it like this, then the Jiang family's chastity archway is so handy.

What? You say the above will not judge?

Then you can appeal and try to see if the county master agrees.

For the county master, one more chastity archway under this rule is one more merit for him.

Can he take the initiative to push his merits outward?

The Liu family, on the other hand, is much simpler.

Money is not returned.

The girls have been left until twenty-one, and they finally told the others, and they gave such a big five taels of silver, how can there be any reason to return it.

This girl is more and more worthless, and if she stays, she will become an old girl, how to marry out, and give a bad reputation, leave a name of Kefu, and finally give a big one, if you want to return to your relatives, anyway, the money is not returned.

Therefore, neither of them was successful.
