Chapter 42: Encounter with an Alcoholic
Bai Yunxi's attitude made Qin Dachuan suspicious, and Shen Yao shouted in her heart: Sister, you are crazy, can you say something?
"Bai Yunxi, your family has a lot of rice, and you are full of food to take care of other people's family affairs? I am Sister Bao's stepmother, there is nothing in this world that I can't beat my daughter, you give me a dodge! ”
Shen Yao shook Bai Yunxi away, symbolically pulled Sister Bao'er's hand and slapped her palm.
Just kidding, when she doesn't know Sister Bao'er's true identity? Who dares to really beat the eldest princess, it's a long life?
Although Shen Yao's beating didn't hurt, the deliberate approach made Sister Bao feel humiliated, pushed Shen Yao away and ran out.
"Sister Bao!" Bai Yunxi stomped his feet anxiously, but pointed at Shen Yao and shouted, "Brother Dachuan will be killed by you sooner or later!" ”
After speaking, Bai Yunxi hurriedly ran out to chase Sister Bao'er.
Qin Dachuan clenched his fists, looked at Shen Yao coldly, and scolded: "If something happens to Sister Bao'er, I won't let you go!" ”
"Sister Bao'er's glass heart is not what you are used to, she was born in a peasant family, but she developed the temperament of an eldest lady, this is harming her!" Shen Yao retorted.
Qin Dachuan also knew that Shen Yao didn't hit Sister Bao hard, and he didn't know how to answer when he heard the words.
After putting away the dishes and chopsticks, Shen Yao's brows were always furrowed, and she always felt that something was wrong with Fang Cai.
But Wu Damei came to call Shen Yao to go out together, so she didn't think much about it.
"Not to mention, the sprouts you gave birth to are so delicious, and I'm quite hungry. The steward ate it once, and deliberately asked him to sell it to him. The smile on Wu Damei's face never stopped.
Shen Yao chuckled and said, "Then congratulations to Sister Da Mei, you have another livelihood." ”
"If you weren't busy, you would have done this business, and you would have earned dozens of yuan." Wu Damei whispered: "You always go up the mountain, I made you a pair of shoes, big girl, don't dislike it." ”
Looking down at the cloth shoes that were about to leak her thumbs, Shen Yao was a little embarrassed, she was not the original owner, and she was really not good at needlework.
"Thank you Sister Da Mei, no one taught me to do needlework when I was a child, and I really don't know this." Shen Yao made an excuse for herself, lest someone talk about it.
"It's okay, you come to me for needlework in the future, I don't know how to embroider or anything, but ordinary needlework is okay." Wu Damei looked at Shen Yao distressedly, it was really not easy for a girl without a father and a mother.
Shen Yao thanked her, she would rather take care of the medicine garden and make money to buy ready-made ones that are not fragrant?
Soon it was time to separate, Shen Yao went to sell medicinal herbs first and then went to Huiniang Tavern as usual, but he didn't want to see the drunk Qin Sanshu in the hall.
"Do you know the gambler?" Hui Niang's eyes were sharp, and she could see it with Shen Yao's eyes.
"My man's third uncle." Shen Yao didn't hide it, but she didn't say that she and Qin Dachuan were a nominal couple.
"Then I have to advise you, such relatives are far away, nine out of ten gamblers are muddy, and if they are stained, they will be like dog skin plasters." As a woman, Hui Niang understands how difficult it is for a woman to carry a family, so she will mention a few words.
Although Hui Niang didn't ask much about Shen Yao's family situation, women in this world rarely show up, that is, country women go to the market to sell something at most.
"Thank you for the lady, but I have a grudge against him." Shen Yao blinked, and her tone was a little playful.
Hui Niang pointed at Shen Yao in vain, because the relationship between women was already kind, and at this moment, she felt that the 'unfilial' Shen Yao was in line with her appetite.
Trading again, Shen Yao made another sum of silver, but also guessed that Hui Niang was not only in this shop, or that there were relatives who also made food, otherwise the traffic of the tavern would not have ordered another catty of seasoning.
However, Shen Yao didn't ask much, she was very short of money.
"Shen, it's really you! I'm your third uncle, are you dumb? Don't you know how to scream when you see someone? When Shen Yao went out again, he was stopped by Qin Sanshu at the door of the tavern.
"I don't have any relatives who gamble, I don't care about you if you get drunk, don't get in my way." Shen Yao walked sideways, unwilling to say a word.
However, Shen Yao was also a little strange in his heart, Qin Sanshu was broken that day, and he didn't go to Qin Dachuan to ask for silver, and he didn't hear about embarrassing Yu's mother and son afterwards, which was unreasonable.
This thought flashed, and Shen Yao threw it to the back of his mind, just an irrelevant cannon fodder.
Today I came to the town with a mission, in addition to radishes and cabbage seeds, Shen Yao went to buy a few sets of ready-to-wear clothes, as well as the four treasures of the study, and half of the silver that had just been put into his pocket was not hot.
"No wonder the ancients wanted to raise a family to provide for a scholar, and the speed of burning money is still self-taught at home, which is expensive." When checking out, Shen Yao muttered quietly.
"The mud legs still want to study, and they don't weigh their best to see if they have the life to read." A maid behind him who was about to settle the bill said in a weird way.
Shen Yao turned around and saw the maid pinching her nose in disgust, and rolled her eyes at herself with disdain.
"Some people are born slaves, and they think they are human beings." Shen Yao said unceremoniously, and when she picked up the back basket, she deliberately threw it in the direction of the maid, and almost fell down.
"Slut, you dare to hit me, do you know who my master is?" The maid asked in a cold voice.
"Yo, I'm really sorry, I didn't see anyone behind me. But does your master know that you are arrogant outside and ruining his reputation? Shen Yao sneered and turned to leave.
The maid still wanted to chase out and scold Shen Yao, but a gentle female voice came from behind the bookshelf: "Xiaohuan, have you lost your temper again?" I'm about to settle the money, don't delay to see Sister Yunxi. ”
Shen Yao, who had already left the bookstore, had not heard the girl's voice, otherwise she would have been curious to see who the person who was worthy of the Bai Yunxi sisters was.
After all, Bai Yunxi has only one daughter in her family, and the book doesn't say that she has any friends.
And Shen Yao, who had bought a lot of things, didn't want to collapse her back, so she rented a donkey cart and went back to the village, who knew that her move had avoided a trouble.
"Qin Sanshu, we can't catch up with that girl who walks in a donkey cart, but let's delay your efforts to accompany you to this block, and the money we should give is not less." The sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man spread out his hands, too lazy to listen to Qin Sanshu's scolding.
"It's just ten cents, and I don't have more." Qin Sanshu gave Brother Monkey ten dollars and ran away, scolding in his mouth: "Shen, you are a slut, you don't know how to honor the third uncle if you have money, and you also teach me to beat me, Lao Tzu is not finished with you." ”
Shen Yao, who was sitting on the donkey cart and sneezed, rubbed her nose and muttered, "Who is talking about me?" ”
The donkey cart swayed into the village, Shen Yao paid for the car and didn't want to go more, so she took the donkey cart directly to the door of the house, but at the moment of getting out of the car, she saw Bai Yunxi gently wiping the sweat beads on the tip of Sister Bao'er's nose.
At this moment, Shen Yao finally understood why she felt something was wrong in the morning.
I know Sister Bao'er's identity because I wear the book, and I knew the identity and fate of the characters in the book before.
But Bai Yunxi's demeanor in the morning was clearly the same as those servants who protected the master, how did she know Sister Bao'er's identity?
Could it be that Bai Yunxi is also a traverser?
"Sister-in-law, why did you come back in a donkey cart? The fare costs fifteen cents, which is enough to buy ten eggs. Bai Yunxi walked towards the donkey cart and opened his mouth to accuse.
Suppressing the tumbling emotions in her heart, Shen Yao tried her best to use a normal tone and asked tentatively, "I came back by plane, what does it have to do with you?" ”
