In the evening, Yi Jiaren asked her mother-in-law to boil flax porridge again, and when she came in, Xiao Yuwen looked weak and couldn't sit up, "Lady, help me up." ”

"Why are you in such trouble?" Impatience is impatience, but Yi Jiaren still helped him up and sat down, stuffed a pillow behind his back, and handed him the porridge, "Okay, let me go to the academy tomorrow, I don't have time to wait for you." ”

Xiao Yuwen raised his hand and put it down softly, "Lady, I don't have any strength, you can feed me." ”

"You..." Yi Jia was so angry that he had a toothache, but he still sat on the edge of the bed and fed him, for fear of burning him, and gave him a cold in his mouth. Xiao Yuwen was so excited that he ate three bowls in a row, of course, Yi Jiaren fed him one bite at a time.

After patiently feeding him the last bite, Yi Jiaren did not forget to threaten, "You'd better give it to me tomorrow, otherwise you can only wait for death, I don't have any money to treat you." ”

Xiao Yuwen was busy with a smiling face: "I will definitely listen to the lady's order, and I will guarantee it tomorrow." ”

After hesitating for a while, he said with a smile on his face: "Lady, it's almost the end of the month, and Mr.'s binding gift will be handed over next month, when will you give it to me?" ”

He was too embarrassed to mention it.

Yi Jia was so angry that he wanted to put the bowl in his hand on his face, "Didn't you say you didn't want me to feed it?" ”

"Hehe, count me as borrowing it, and I'll pay you back later."

Looking at his face with ancient carvings, Yi Jiaren was a little bored: "You said that you are of any use except for being good-looking." ”

Xiao Yuwen was not angry when he was scolded by his own lady, and he was still smiling, "Why am I useless, don't I talk to you now to relieve my boredom, but it's true that I'm good-looking, I've been worried that my wife didn't find out, it seems that I'm too worried." ”

"Can you be serious?" Yi Jiaren took his finger and wanted to poke his head open. "You can figure out your own way, I don't have any money for you, even if I have it, I don't want to give it to you."

Xiao Yuwen immediately sat up and drew a pie for Yi Jiaren.

He took Yi Jiaren's hand and said seriously: "Lady, you can't ruin my future, it's going to be spring soon, if I win the champion and become a high-ranking official, you are the champion lady, the phoenix crown is more majestic, and then I will support you, we will get back the face we lost before, you say it's okay." ”

This flatbread is not badly drawn.

Yi Jiaren was a little stunned, sitting on the edge of the bed, she couldn't help but think a little, as if she was already wearing gold and silver to show off her might in front of Lin Fengyin and Guo Xun.

Seeing that she was stunned, Xiao Yuwen snickered for a while and called her softly: "Lady, lady." ”

"Oh." Yi Jiaren came back to her senses and hurriedly withdrew her hand, "That... How much is that corsetion? ”

"Fifty taels."

"So much!" Yi Jiaren shouted, and the dream just now was shattered.

Xiao Yuwen patted his chest and pretended to be surprised: "Lady, it's okay for you to scare me." ”

"I want to scare you to death." Saying that, she stood up with her hips crossed, her eyes rolling, and finally spoke: "I see that you still don't go to the academy, you will go out tomorrow to set up a stall to make money, and start supporting me now, I'm afraid that I won't live to the day when you win the championship." ”

After saying that, she went out.

Didn't come in again all night. I slept with two mothers-in-law, and was smoked by my mother-in-law's stinky feet all night.

Early the next morning, she came in and combed her hair, and suddenly remembered that the jewelry she wore when she got married was prepared by the Wu family, and it looked like it was worth a lot of silver, and it was idle anyway, so it was better to give it to Xiao Yuwen as a gift.

I heard my brother say that he has always been among the best and valued by Mr., maybe he will come back as a champion.

She was busy on the dressing table to find out the jewelry, but it was all bad, and it was thrown around by the two of them on the night of marriage.

The last hope was also shattered, she didn't want to care about Xiao Yuwen's restraint ceremony, and let him find a way to go by himself.

She couldn't stay here for a long time, so she packed a small bag and prepared to go to Lao Han's house to hide for a few days. As soon as I went out, the mother-in-law came, "Young lady, the money for the medicine for the young master yesterday was not enough, and it was still on credit, so I have to send it to someone today." ”

"You're looking for the young master." Yi Jiaren hurriedly fled with her baggage.

The mother-in-law was still shouting behind: "The young master's horse is out of order." ”

Yi Jiaren has run away.

When she came to Zhong Xiufang, she was already out of breath. From North Street to South Street, you have to walk closer for an hour, or live closer to Lao Han's house.

Seeing that she was out of breath, the shopkeeper Wang asked, "Mrs. Xiao, why don't you take the carriage?" ”

"Eh, don't call me Mrs. Xiao, listen to my heart."

Yi Jiaren is bitter in her heart. What kind of lady is this, is there a lady who comes out to make money to support her husband? Return the carriage, what is it called?

It's better not to talk about shame everywhere.

All day long, Yi Jiaren was worried, for fear that the little girl in the family would come to her again to ask for money, but fortunately, the day passed without incident.

In the evening, when she was about to leave, the shopkeeper Wang stopped her, "Miss Yi, you can be careful when you go back, Ning'an City has not been peaceful recently, and I heard that there are fanatics who are plundering good and slavery." ”

These Yi Jia people have also heard that some dignitaries and nobles in the Tianshun Dynasty are proud to have Kunlun slaves and orchids in their families, but they have not heard of any of their own people being bought and sold.

"King Xie reminds me that I will be careful." Yi Jiaren said this, and he didn't go to his heart, humming a little song and going back to Lao Han's house.

Seeing that she came back alone without Luo'er, Song hesitated for a long time and asked, "Young lady, why didn't you bring Luo'er back with you?" ”

Hearing her ask, Yi Jiaren suddenly remembered what she said to herself before she got married, and hurriedly explained, "Luo'er doesn't live with us, she rests with his wife's eldest maid, don't worry, she's fine." ”

Song didn't say anything after hearing this, but his face was long, and he stood for a while before turning around to cook, and he didn't greet Yi Jiaren for tea.

"Alas!" Yi Jiaren sighed and called her: "Mother-in-law, you cook Luo'er's food, I'll go back and pick her up." ”

Seeing that it was about to get dark, she didn't take the main road, but took a shortcut to the alley of North Street.

To get to Xiao's house, she had to cross a small bridge, and then walk north along the river for a mile to arrive, but she went south and walked out of the city along the river.

It was getting darker and darker, and suddenly a crow flew overhead and screamed twice, startling her, and she looked around carefully, only to see the shadows of the trees in the distance.

Where is this?

She hurriedly walked back, at this time, it was already dark, she was deep and shallow in the suburban woods circle, half a day did not walk to the right road, there was no spark around the dark, she was even more panicked, and she was afraid of a cold sweat.

Holding his arms and trying to shout for help, he suddenly heard the sound of someone talking not far away, and then looked closely and it seemed that there was still some light.

This made her so happy that she hurriedly ran over there, shouting as she ran, "Is there anyone over there?" I'm lost, please point me down. ”

There was silence for a moment, and then a man's voice replied, "Girl, come here." ”

"Huh." Yi Jiaren spread her legs and ran over there.

Suddenly, a large hand covered her mouth from behind.
