Chapter 15: The Story of Concubinage

The night breeze blowing from Daqing Mountain could not dissolve the rich bloody aura on everyone's body.

After properly burying the bodies of the three bandits, Zhao Hengyi and his gang returned to the village with the frightened Liu Shuang.

The young members of the hunting team, who were with the village chief and a group of elders in the village, did not know what had happened in this seemingly uneventful night.

Wu Lao Liu appeared in everyone's sight alone, muttered a few words to the village chief and asked the young members of the hunting team to go home separately, some things, it was not time for these young people to participate.

The weaving workshop was noisy as usual, and under the bright torches, the women of Elm Bay were speeding about the new loom, while the parents were gossiping and laughing from time to time.

Since the establishment of the textile workshop, these women have hope for their hopeless lives!

As long as you can work here in Zhao Hengyi, you can eat a full meal of rice and sorghum cooked dry rice, and you can also divide two copper plates every day, and the grain bought by the two copper plates is mixed with some wild vegetables and grass seeds, which is enough for a family to eat and drink for three days!

Because they can work to make money, the women in the workshop can also straighten their waists when they return home, and the men in charge no longer dare to scold their wives and concubines at will.

In the simple thatched house, Miao Xiaoyu rarely sat under the dim oil lamp and did not go around to greet and work, her expression was full of nervousness.

The six little ones seemed to notice something, and they didn't go to sleep obediently, but quietly accompanied the eldest sister one by one with their chins.

In the corner, there is the anxious Sun Xiuying, an honest girl who seems to want to hide herself in the shadows that the oil lamp can't illuminate.

There was a commotion outside the door, and Zhao Hengyi's familiar voice was greeting the sisters-in-law and aunts who were working, Miao Xiaoyu stood up with a stabbing sound, and the drowsy six little ones instantly cheered up.

When Zhao Hengyi walked into the house, Miao Xiaoyu hugged her husband, suppressed her voice, and cried silently.

"Okay, aren't I okay?"

Zhao Hengyi's pale face squeezed out a smile, and gently patted his daughter-in-law's little head, "My sisters are all watching, don't cry." ”

The six little ones who were vaguely aware of something also gathered around their brother-in-law, stretched out their immature arms, and hugged their eldest sister and brother-in-law tightly.

At this moment, Zhao Hengyi's heart instantly became calm, and everything he did had meaning at this moment!

After appeasing Miao Xiaoyu and the six little ones, Zhao Hengyi could take care of Sun Xiuying who was shrinking in the corner.

"Xiuying, Liu Shuang was locked up by the village chief, and he won't beat you again in the future."

Zhao Hengyi was keenly aware that Sun Xiuying, an honest girl, was afraid of herself, "You are you, Liu Shuang is Liu Shuang, what that kid did has nothing to do with you, but if you didn't report the news this time, maybe there would be a big disaster."

In the future, you don't have to go back to Liu Shuang's shack, stay and help Xiaoyu take care of the workshop. ”

Leaving a few words, Zhao Hengyi couldn't hold back any longer, walked out of the door quickly, found a place to carry people and vomited.

The bloody breath in his nose seemed to have been entangled with him, the first time he saw someone being killed with his own eyes, even if he knew that the other party was a thief with bad intentions, Zhao Hengyi couldn't control his stress reaction.

Being able to endure until this time is already considered tenacious.

After spitting out the contents of his stomach, Zhao Hengyi felt that the bloody breath that had been lingering on the tip of his nose had faded a lot.

Looking at the bright moon in the night sky, Zhao Hengyi couldn't help but think of Wang Erhu's smiling face and those eager eyes...... The person he meows is more popular than the dead man, that killing embryo!

"Husband, Xiuying is indeed a good girl, honest and responsible, and a person who can be a sister."

Miao Xiaoyu, who came out with Zhao Hengyi, gently patted her husband's back and whispered her thoughts, "Moreover, since being selected by Liu Shuang from the family sending team, Xiuying has only met Liu Shuang twice, and she was beaten by Liu Shuang every time, and she didn't do anything else, she was still a clean girl......"

"Stop!"

Zhao Hengyi, who was out of breath, felt that Miao Xiaoyu's words were getting more and more wrong, "Why are you talking to me about this?" ”

"These are all things I just asked, Xiuying's girl is very honest and won't talk nonsense with me."

Miao Xiaoyu was still immersed in her own thoughts, "Now that Liu Shuang is locked up, Xiuying has no hope at all, her husband is willing to accept her as a concubine, and she is doing good deeds!" ”

Zhao Hengyi couldn't cry or laugh, even Miao Xiaoyu, the daughter-in-law, he married to save talents, where is there any intention of taking a concubine!

"If the husband doesn't want to take Xiuying as a concubine, why do you want her to stay in our house and be my companion?"

Miao Xiaoyu looked self-righteous, "I'm not a jealous person, a man's family has the ability, and taking a concubine is a matter of course, besides, my husband doesn't want to touch me, but I have to have someone by my side to serve ......"

The more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes, and she is not a jealous person, she is clearly accusing herself of not having sex with her!

Zhao Hengyi didn't wait for Miao Xiaoyu to continue, he directly covered the other party's small mouth with his big hand, and quickly pecked on that delicate cheek!

"Go back and take care of my sisters, go to bed early, I'll go to the blacksmith."

After speaking, Zhao Hengyi, who was weak-hearted, fled.

Looking at her husband's slightly embarrassed figure, Miao Xiaoyu, whose cheeks were red like boiled shrimp, pursed her lips and was stunned for a while before returning to the house.

The husband has Xiaoyu in his heart, and he blames the damn Kefu's life!

For Miao Xiaoyu's careful thinking, Zhao Hengyi can guess one or two, but as a modern person, his concept is difficult to change.

Zhao Hengyi doesn't care what Kefu lives, but he always feels that two people become husband and wife, and they need an emotional foundation for a long time.

Miao Xiaoyu is probably more grateful to him now.

As long as the relationship between the two gradually warms up, Zhao Hengyi is not a stupid person, everything can fall into place.

It's just that right now, Zhao Hengyi always has a feeling of taking advantage of people's danger, which makes him feel uncomfortable.

In the blacksmith shop, Zhang Daniu was barebacked, wearing only a pair of shorts, and sweating like rain with a hammer.

Everything that happened tonight made Zhao Hengyi clearly aware that if he wanted to protect his wealth and safety, it was far from enough to rely on a crossbow.

It's time to build a fleet of sharp, well-worn knives, weapons like crossbows that don't fit in the sight of others who are too exposed.

"Brother Niu, I'll find some people tomorrow to burn some coke to use, which should be able to raise the temperature of the furnace a little more."
