But even if he buys a house in the town, he may often go back to the village to live, because he is going to buy a mountain to plant in the spring of next year.

The status of a merchant in this era was too low, and it was impossible for him to completely turn into a merchant.

After all, he still has to think about the children's origins.

Just like Du Qingliu and Zhao Baozhu.

One is the concubine of the poor Xiucai family, and the other is the concubine of the butcher's family.

But Xiucai's family, even if she is just a concubine, can overpower a merchant girl in terms of status.

…………

In just a few days, the clothes were ready.

Naturally, you have to send it over, so you should give it a New Year's gift in advance.

Zhang Dujuan's house didn't have to go, Yunfei subsidized her with silver.

The other two didn't treat them well, so he didn't buy any heavy gifts, after all, everyone knew that he was just a poor scholar.

Pastries, sugar, meat.

It's very good that the farmer can come up with these gifts, plus two sets of new cotton clothes and one set of old cotton clothes,

In order to facilitate the sale of tofu in the town, Yunfei had already bought a donkey cart.

Horses are too expensive and eye-catching, so choose a docile donkey, which can also be pulled.

At this moment, after he set up the car, he laid a soft cushion in the carriage before helping Du Qingliu up.

"Slow down."

"Okay." Du Qingliu's face is a little pink, she has never tasted affection.

For more than a month, tasted.

At this moment, just being supported by her husband, I felt that my wrists were hot and my heart was beating wildly.

Now, because of her pregnancy and the fact that she eats well on weekdays, she has a lot more plump.

Wearing a light blue cotton jacket, navy blue cotton pants, and a circle of white rabbit fur at the collar.

Holding a soup woman in his hand to warm his hands.

This thing is precious, but the husband still bought four without saying a word, and no one in the family has it, but he doesn't have it.

It's cold, holding this in my arms, my hands are warm, and my body is also warm.

The embroidered shoes on the feet are also filled with a layer of rabbit fur, which is particularly warm.

The donkey cart moved slowly, and Yunfei led it in front.

Looking at the familiar paths on both sides of the road, Du Qingliu felt that this was the first warm winter day she had lived when she was so big.

Dujia Village is not far away, just next door, so the two arrived quickly.

The people in the village, for a while, couldn't recognize Du Qingliu.

Seeing strangers entering the village, an eldest lady stepped forward and asked, "The little brother and the little lady are a little face-to-face, have you come to find someone?" ”

"Aunt Hua, I'm Aoyagi, don't you recognize me?"

Aunt Hua looked at it carefully and clapped her hands in surprise, "Ah, it's really a willow girl, I haven't seen her for a few months, why has it changed so much?" ”

"I'm fat, my face is better, it's good to look at your in-laws."

"Yes, my husband treats me well." Du Qingliu hadn't interacted with many people in the village, so it wasn't surprising that many people couldn't recognize him.

After all, she has to do embroidery all day long, and she is a concubine, so how can she be qualified to appear in front of people often.

After a few pleasantries, they left, and Aunt Hua also tasted not to delay their time.

turned around and gossiped with others.

…………

Du Xiucai's house is also a blue brick house, although the family is poor, but outsiders do not know.

At least on the surface, it seems that life is very good, who would have thought that it would be a place where the clothes and rations of the concubines and concubines were deducted.

Knock knock~~

As Yunfei knocked on the courtyard door, Du Qingliu's body began to tense.

Yun Fei immediately noticed her strangeness, and said comfortingly: "Don't be afraid, meet your mother-in-law, we will leave after giving the gift, with me, I won't let you be bullied." ”

"Who?" It was a young woman who listened to the voice.

The door opened, and inside stood a thin woman, dressed in an old autumn robe.

Du Qingliu shouted with some stumbling: "Sister-in-law...... Sister-in-law. ”

"Are you...... Willow girl? ”

"Yes, sister-in-law, I'll go home and take a look."

"Okay, you wait first, I'll call Daddy."

With a bang, the courtyard door closed again.

Du Qingliu's face turned white in an instant, she understood what her sister-in-law meant, and she actually had to ask to determine whether she would enter the door or not.

Is she not even qualified to go back to her parents' house now?

She doesn't understand, what is wrong with what she has done?

"Don't think about it so much, there are some things that you can't force to come, you still have a mother-in-law."

"Yes, and the little lady......"

Yunfei has always called Du Qingliu's mother-in-law as his mother-in-law.

It was this lady who was blind, and worked day and night to do embroidery work to earn poll tax for herself and her daughter.

To be honest, Du Xiucai really didn't raise them except for a firewood house to live in.

even relied on Du Qingliu and her mother to make a lot of money.

His mother-in-law's embroidery work is different from Du Qingliu's, her embroidery work is all large.

The shops in town rushed to get that.

Even though they made a lot of money, she and Du Qingliu even had a full meal, and they were always scolded by the housemother for eating white rice.

After waiting for a while, the courtyard door opened again.

It's still that woman, Du Qingliu's brother's wife, Wang.

Her eldest brother has a wife and two concubines.

The younger brother is another concubine, born to Wu Xiaoniang, and he also had a difficult time in this family.

And the younger sister was born to the main mother, and like the elder brother, in this family, they can rely on their mother to be favored.

Because the main mother is the daughter of Du Xiucai's master's family.

So for so many years, no one can cross her.

Even after so many years, Du Xiucai has not been able to go any further, and he still has not given up.

Naturally, I need to please my father-in-law, who is a master.

However, his father-in-law is only a talent and fame, and he is older and more experienced.

The couple were brought into the hall by the Wang family, and there was no trace of Du Xiucai in the high position, and it was his wife who entertained them.

Mrs. Du smiled: "Your father happened to go to the classmate's house today to discuss his homework, so he was not at home. ”

"This is my uncle, right? looks really talented, and our family Aoyagi is really lucky. ”

At this moment, she also had some doubts in her heart.

Didn't you say that the family that this dead girl married was about to die?

The man he married was a scholar with little talent, how could this not be like it?

Seeing that Du Qingliu was raised like a jade man, with red lips and white teeth, and the clothes on his body were beautiful and warm.

There was also the pair of silver bracelets on the wrists, and the silver hairpins on the top of her head, Mrs. Du's hands couldn't help but clench.

The nails were clasped in the palms.

It's really like, like when she was young.

If it weren't for her hard work, it is estimated that the woman would still be able to dominate her man's heart.

It's a pity that I can't fight her after all.

"I haven't had time to visit, it's not cold, and I think about my father and mother, so I want to take her home to see.

After all, if you are a few months older, it will be difficult to go out. ”

Yun Fei said a few polite words playfully, and then handed over the gift before asking, "Don't you know that Deng Xiaoniang is at home?" The son-in-law wanted to visit her. ”
