Chapter 36: The Woman's Name

It was the next day when He Mai had nothing to do, so he made more noodles and baked some oil cakes, and before He Mai could discuss with Yang Liulang, Yang Liulang opened his mouth and asked He Mai to send some to the old lady.

He Mai's heart was warm, and he wrapped six oil cakes and sent them to the old lady.

When he arrived at the thatched hut, He Mai chatted with the Qin family in the house for a while, which was nothing more than an idle matter in the village.

I only heard Qin's family say that the Li Zheng family caught two little pig lambs, and they were worried about the pig food on weekdays, saying that now pig raising has become a science, and pig lambs are very cheap, but if they are not raised well, I am afraid that they will not even be able to return the capital.

He Mai only asked Qin what to feed this pig food? At present, there is still a vacant land in the back room of the Yang family, if you can hold two pigs and raise them, it is good.

He Mai asked, and Qin replied carefully.

This little pig lamb likes to eat a lot of things, the acorns, sweet potato leaves, and the swill at home can make the pig grow fat and strong. But if you don't have anything at home, even if you cut some pigweed and feed the pigs, it can grow slowly, but it just takes a little more time.

He Mai felt very simple when he heard it, so he asked the Qin family what was still worried about?

The Qin family then expressed the suffering of the Zheng family here.

Lizheng's daughter-in-law was the Biao'er who came to gossip outside the hut that day, and this Biao'er had never taken care of housework, let alone feeding pigs. Li Zheng also faces the loess with his back to the sky on weekdays, and has three girls and a son at home, studying in the academy in the town.

The three girls have married to other villages, and this one son can't be counted on, and Biao'er is an incomprehensible person, so she smashed all her work on Lizheng's back.

Isn't that worrying? If you come back from the field and have to mow the grass, I'm afraid you will tire people out!

He Mai only felt sorry when he heard it, the family had the conditions to hold the pigs, but they couldn't come out to feed them, didn't this look at the silver of the white flowers and slip away in front of them!

Qin saw that He Mai was interested in this matter, so he reminded her and asked her to go back and sum up with Liulang, if it was suitable, he would take two pigs back, and a pig could earn seven or eight taels of silver in two years, but she had to get up early and be greedy.

He Mai remembered it in his heart, sat for a while and said goodbye to the Qin family.

Before going out, Qin took a bag of pastries brought by yesterday's mountain grass and half a catty of sweet potatoes to Hemai, and told Hemai to take less things from his mother's house in the future, it would not be good to be seen.

He Mai knew the old lady's temperament, so she had to respond first, and rushed home with pastries and sweet potatoes.

At this time, it was getting late outside, and He Mai was in a hurry, but he didn't want to be there, and on the way, he met two unrelated people one after another.

He Mai stared at Mrs. Dong who was coming towards her, and the two collided unguardedly, Mrs. Dong was startled, and her eyes flashed with emptiness.

"Hemai is back...... Mrs. Dong sneered, "Go to your grandmother's place?" What a coincidence, I just went to Xu Langzhong to see the disease......"

"Look, where does the illness go?" He Mai glanced at her lightly and snorted coldly: "Didn't you go to Shunchai?" ”

"Why are you talking, you girl!" Mrs. Dong looked at her dissatisfied, looking confident, "I'm just stopping by to see if you're at home...... Yo girl, why do you say you don't care about Liulang's house again? When you get married, you always run to your mother's house, aren't you afraid of being gossiped about......"

He Mai glanced at her, "Auntie, I'll go back first......

"Hey, hey, wait a minute!" Mrs. Dong stopped her, "What are you in a hurry with this girl," she came over with a smile and grabbed Hemai's hand, "Look at how delicate your hand is?" Rokuro must be at home to hurt you, you are also a good fate, Rokuro is not at home, he doesn't know what to do, and he is comfortable! The mother-in-law in our village envy you......"

"What?" He Mai was puzzled, "What are you talking about?" Make it clear! ”

"Nothing, nothing!" Mrs. Dong hurriedly shook her head and smiled, "Girl, go back, I'm leaving!" ”

He Mai frowned and walked forward in doubt, and when he was about to reach the door of the house, he suddenly saw two people standing in front of the house.

The tall figure is Yang Liulang, and the other slightly plump figure is a woman, I saw the woman from afar, waving her hands and paws and saying something, He Mai vaguely heard Liu Ermazi, Xu Jiang, a few names.

Take a closer look at the figure of that woman, it is Aunt Fang!

Everyone knows that Aunt Fang'er's mouth is the same as the belt of her trousers, and there is no door, but He Mai is strange, how could Aunt Fang talk to Liulang about Liu Er Mazi and Xu Jiang?

Thinking like this, thinking of Mrs. Dong's ulterior smile, He Mai's heart tightened and he understood what was going on.

This Aunt Fang is afraid that she heard the rumors of Liu Er Mazi and her, and took advantage of her Lin Hemai's absence to learn words from Liulang!

This Aunt Fang didn't have to worry about it, and even ran to Yang Liulang to spread her gossip! Is it really easy for her Lin Hemai to bully!

Thinking of this, He Mai hurriedly ran over and shouted, "Liulang! ”

Aunt Fang'er was foaming at the mouth, and when she saw He Mai running over, her face was stunned, she looked a little embarrassed, and greeted uncomfortably: "Yo, He Mai is back......"

"Aunt Fang," He Mai ran over, seeing Aunt Fang'er's embarrassed and uncomfortable face, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but sneer, "What do you say to our family Liulang?" ”

"No, I didn't say anything!" Aunt Fang hurriedly denied it, and stammered to explain, "That, that, I came to see Xu Langzhong with Mrs. Dong, and when I went home, I stopped by to see you, so I ......."

He Mai narrowed his eyes, "Come by and see me?" Then I'm not at home, what are you talking to Rokuro at the door? ”

"Didn't say anything! Hey, what do you want to do with this girl! Aunt Fang saw He Mai's questioning, and hurriedly shouted aggrieved, "Why do I say that it is also your aunt, what are you thinking in your head?" I'm just here to talk to Rokuro for a few words, and you'll see ......."

He Mai set her eyes on Yang Liulang's face, and when she came back until now, she didn't take a look at Yang Liulang's expression.

It's okay not to look at it, but when she looked, she was actually frightened by Yang Liulang's expression.

On the face that was usually gentle and smiling, the lines were tense at this moment, the corners of his mouth were pursed into a line, displeasure flashed in his slightly cold eyes, and He Mai even saw a trace of anger in his eyes.

"Rokuro?" He Mai was shocked, and secretly shouted that it was not good: Liulang must not listen to rumors, and be sowing discord by the words of the broken-mouthed mother-in-law!

She glared at Aunt Fang fiercely, but in her heart she wondered how to explain to Rokuro.

Aunt Fang also saw that Yang Liulang's face was not good, and then looked at He Mai's eyes glaring at her, and hurriedly shrunk her neck and smiled, "Ya, girl, I'll go back first if it's okay...... I'll see you again when I have time! ”

He Mai stared at Aunt Fang'er's back and glared fiercely, "Long-tongued woman! ”

Leaving He Mai and Liulang in front of the house, He Mai coughed lightly and explained: "Liulang, don't listen to their nonsense, in fact, ......"

"Liu Er Mazi has been here?" Yang Liulang interrupted her suddenly.

"Huh?" He Mai was stunned by his cold words, and had to answer: "I have been here, but I ......"

"Really?" Yang Liulang's eyes were a little cold, "I also said they were talking nonsense!" ”

"This ......" He Mai was stunned, looking at Yang Liulang's increasingly cold face, he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart: Could it be that he listened to Aunt Fang'er's slander and thought that he had an affair with Liu Ermazi?

Looking at Yang Liulang's thoughtful care of He Mai on weekdays, but in this kind of matter about women's names, it is difficult to guarantee that he is not like most men in the world, who value women's names more than anything else!

If he really listened to Aunt Fang'er's words, He Mai wouldn't be able to wash it even if he jumped into the Yellow River!

He Mai's eyes were filled with sadness and grievance, could it be that the trust and concern between the two of them collapsed because of such an incident?

That's so pathetic!
