When Aunt Wang came to visit the star fruit again, Ye's attitude was much more attentive. When there was no one else, Ye also deliberately tested Aunt Wang.

She said: "The Qiao family has experienced such a thing, and it is not easy for several children. The neighbors have everything to say, and just those gossip are poured into the ears and make people unbearable. ”

At that time, it was speculated that Qiao's family would be beheaded all over the house, and few relatives and friends were willing to come to them, but star fruit was bent on rushing up. Since that time, there have been rumors in secret, nothing more than arranging star fruit and Qiao An, and there is everything.

As soon as Ye said this, Aunt Wang generally understood what she meant, and said with a smile: "The Qiao family is not a person who loses his conscience, there was no way at the beginning, and now that everyone is safe, the children must not be wronged." ”

Speaking of which, Ye Shi is not good at chasing and asking. She smiled at Aunt Wang and said, "You are a proper person, and it is naturally impossible to arrange it with you." ”

Going out of the Yang family, Aunt Wang has been thinking about Ye's words.

She knew that there were people in the village who were arranging star fruit, although no one dared to say it explicitly, but in the end, it also affected the reputation. If you want to say that the two children are settled, it is also an idea, anyway, Qiao An's heart is here in the star fruit, and it is good to fulfill them.

Aunt Wang went back to discuss with Qiao Kangcheng, but Qiao Kangcheng refused: "I don't know where An'er is, what kind of relatives are you in a hurry?" ”

His tone was not good, and his expression was not happy, and Aunt Wang knew that he was unwilling.

"Our family is not as good as before, the child of star fruit, it looks good with affection and righteousness." Aunt Wang blew the medicinal soup sent by Qiao Xiucai to cool, and then fed it to Qiao Kangcheng's mouth one by one: "If it weren't for star fruit this time, our shop wouldn't be able to keep it, and you would have to suffer a lot more in court." ”

Qiao Kangcheng drank the medicine with a sullen head, and it took a long time before he said in a sullen voice: "We owe her affection, let's pay it back slowly, whether it is silver or side, as long as my Qiao family has it, I can give it to her." But JoAnn can't, absolutely not. ”

Aunt Wang put the empty bowl aside, sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Qiao Kangcheng for a long time, then sighed and said, "I know what you're thinking." It is nothing more than a position of power, a pecuniary interest. I haven't experienced this experience, and I also think that our An'er should be the dragon and phoenix among people, and he should be a very popular minister, illustrious and wealthy. ”

But after this incident, I think peace and joy are the most important thing. Star fruit has good medical skills, and our family has a shop, as long as it is a good business, although it cannot be rich and expensive, it is indispensable to spend those two money. Children love each other, are willing to stand together through thick and thin, and can share weal and woe and prosperity, isn't it better than what? ”

"What do you know?"

"I don't know anything, but I have a heart. suffered this time, my parents avoided us, but the Yang family did not. The Yang family took the initiative to give us silver, and the star fruit gave everything to support us and protect the shop. If we don't cherish this kind of affection, we will regret it for the rest of our lives. ”

Qiao Kangcheng stuffed his head into the blanket and didn't say anything for a long time.

Aunt Wang pinched his exposed hand and said, "Kang Cheng, you are allowed." The two of us have been pharmaceuticals and drugs all our lives, and don't we live a peaceful and beautiful life? ”

"It's because our family is a drug seller that we can be bullied like this." Qiao Kangcheng peeked out of the blanket, he looked up at Aunt Wang, and there was mist in his eyes: "Do you know what life I spent in prison with Lao Zhao?" ”

"Three times a day, a snakeskin whip with barbs, five times at a time. If An Zhiyuan came to see it, he couldn't grit his teeth and endure the pain. The more you don't scream, the more he beats you, and when you scream so miserably that you kneel and beg for mercy, he is willing to raise your noble hand and let you go. ”

"He was seriously injured, and some doctors came to see him, smeared the medicine and then continued to beat, and then saw us kneeling in front of him like dogs, begging him without dignity."

As if thinking of the original scene, Qiao Kangcheng's back arched, and the green tendons on his forehead protruded.

"Those brutes!" Aunt Wang also burst into tears when she heard this, she guessed that they would suffer in prison, and she also knew that they were punished, but she didn't know that An Zhiyuan didn't treat people as people: "Why didn't you say it before? ”

Qiao Kangcheng wanted to wipe his tears for Aunt Wang, but as soon as he moved, he touched the wound, and the pain made him gasp.

"Don't move!"

Qiao Kangcheng shook his head, and the anger in his eyes was really hard to dissipate: "In prison, a bowl of glutinous rice soup with half a moldy steamed bun is a meal. It's nothing, and I didn't expect to eat well when I entered that place. ”

"But they showed us the good food and food you gave us. Every time you send something in. And the servants divided the things at the door of our cell. If there is anything to eat, set it before us and suck it up. While eating, he laughed at the stupidity of our family, bribed them with a lot of money, and begged them to spoil things. ”

"When they can't eat, they feed the cats and dogs in front of us. Then he looked at our greed and pushed us to crawl to the door and grab food from the cats and dogs. ”

Qiao Kangcheng clenched his fists tightly, he thought that he had once picked up a piece of braised pork that the dog had eaten and stuffed it in his mouth. He was sick and weak at the time, and he was so hungry that he saw a piece of braised pork left over from a dog by the cell door, and he couldn't help but pick it up and eat it.

He was the piece of meat that he cried and ate it, and he will never forget that humiliation and humility.

Aunt Wang lay on Qiao Kangcheng's hand and cried, scolding the official again and again for not being human: "After receiving so much silver from our family, what are you doing that is not as good as a pig and a dog......"

Qiao Kangcheng's tears in his eyes also slipped out, he reached out and stroked Aunt Wang's hair, and it took a long time before he sighed: "Speaking of which, An Zhiyuan will be like this, also because of star fruit." ”

He sighed, shook his head and said, "Last time Master Qin gave a lecture, star fruit bribed the cook, and the cook didn't do anything. When things came out, An Zhiyuan's face was not good-looking. That's why he wants us all to see this time, his people just collect money and don't do anything, who can do anything with him? ”

Aunt Wang raised her head and looked at Qiao Kangcheng dumbfounded.

Qiao Kangcheng sighed, and put his big hand on Aunt Wang's hand and pinched it: "Star fruit, this child is good, but it's not suitable for our An'er, forget it." ”

Although Aunt Wang felt sorry for her husband, she also felt that star fruit was wronged, she looked at her husband pleadingly, and persuaded: "In today's world, where can you do things without spending money?" There is no way to stuff silver with star fruit, and the cook should ...... if he doesn't do anything after receiving the money."

"I didn't mean that."

Qiao Kangcheng squeezed Aunt Wang's hand again, and signaled Aunt Wang to feed him a sip of water before continuing: "If it is said to be with Qiao Ping, I will never say anything." But An'er can't, he will take a career in the future, how can he do it without a background? ”

"Today's heavy family, which of the Beijing officials above the fourth grade is a flat-headed commoner? Our Qiao family has no interest, and the only thing he can count on is the Yue family. Now that he has ordered star fruit early, won't it cut off his way? ”

"An'er hasn't even won a show, where can she think so far? Even if he is talented and can go out smoothly, the powerful family may not be willing to marry his daughter to him. "Even if you are willing to marry, how can An'er be the person who climbs the dragon and the phoenix?

"As long as you win the champion, marrying a princess is not delusional!"

Aunt Wang looked at Qiao Kangcheng and didn't speak with a straight face.

Qiao Kangcheng looked at Aunt Wang's eyes seriously, and squeezed her hand tightly: "I asked the second brother, An'er is okay, as long as he is willing to put his mind into it, there will always be a day in high school." ”

"Aren't we here with a Master Qin? He is a famous teacher, and he must have a way in Beijing if he has prestige, so let's think of letting An'er worship him as a teacher. As for Xiucai, let's donate one to An'er, his time should be spent on examining people and relying on the champion. ”

The more he talked, the more excited Qiao Kangcheng became. Regarding Joan being an official, he is almost magical.

Aunt Wang wanted to persuade him, but seeing that he was emotional and injured, she finally pressed it: "Then let's talk about it, An'er hasn't come back yet." Now, I hope that he will be safe and that our family will be safe. ”

After a few more gossips, Aunt Wang went out to cook.

Qiao Kangcheng grabbed Aunt Wang's hand, he looked at Aunt Wang's eyes seriously, and his face was scary: "Go and break the thoughts of the Yang family." My An'er must take the career of an official, and he must be a very popular minister, if I can't see him chop off the surname An's in my lifetime, I won't be blind to death. ”

Aunt Wang's eyes were full of tears, she stood still, refused to turn her head to look at Qiao Kangcheng, and refused to nod in agreement.

"Are you willing to give away your wealth in vain, and are you willing to let us suffer in vain and be bullied in vain, and suffer sins that are not human in vain? Are you willing to admit it, and are you willing to give up? There was no danger this time, but what about next time? If there is no one in the court, we will be trampled under our feet sooner or later. Lady ......"

This lady shouted that Aunt Wang's heart hurt!

Thinking about the torment of this time, she actually couldn't swallow this breath. Her husband was still tortured like that in prison, and he didn't want to give up even if he was a little bloody.

What's more, in the future, if you have no power and no power, you can't speak, and if you offend people in the future, the Qiao family will be tossed again? The Qiao family, which is a small family, can withstand such a toss a few times?

The more Aunt Wang thought about it, the more scared she became, and finally nodded: "I know, don't worry." ”

That night, JoAnn returned.

He was dusty and haggard. As soon as I entered the door, I didn't have time to say anything, I grabbed two steamed buns and nibbled them violently, and I couldn't hold Aunt Wang's tears when I saw it.

Qiao Xiu and Xia Na glanced at each other, and the sister-in-law went to the kitchen to fry two dishes, and burned a bowl of persimmon soup.

Joan glanced at them gratefully, and ate hard, leaving not a drop of soup left.

"How long has it been since you've eaten?"

"It didn't take long for me to walk a little hard, and I wasn't used to eating food in the state capital, so I ate more."

"You're still lying!" Aunt Wang slapped Qiao An on the shoulder, but tears fell: "The Guo family refused to help us at all, and in order to scare the star fruit, they also inserted a knife in her door." Where did you take that fake letter of introduction? What did you do? ”

Star fruit, in the end, is it still a carambola?

"Is she okay? Did An Zhiyuan embarrass her? ”

Aunt Wang's heart was sour, sour and bitter. Her son is worried about star fruit in her heart, and she, who is a mother, wants to beat the mandarin duck ruthlessly.

She stretched out her hand and slapped Qiao An's face, and scolded with red eyes: "Star fruit, star fruit, you have your father and mother in your eyes, but you still have this family?" Is she really a fox thing, leading you to be cold-blooded and ruthless, and you don't recognize your six relatives? ”

This was serious, so frightened that Qiao An knelt down with a puff: "Mother......"
