On the second day of the unhappy parting with the Lin family, Jiang Qingyao came over to make amends.

At that time, Ruan Yimian was still sick, and Lu Caimei was in distress for her son and hated the Jiang family, so she naturally didn't give him a good face, and finally drove people out with an angry face.

Jiang Qingyao was born handsome, but he was not a good person, his expression always showed a little detachment, and he was more than polite to others, but he was not enthusiastic enough, and no one in the village dared to talk to him.

At that time, he always ran to Ruan's house when he had nothing to do, and his attitude towards Ruan Yimian was very unusual, and Lu Caimei guessed that he liked his son.

Every time he came over, he would bring a lot of food and medicinal herbs, all of which were good things to nourish his body, although in the name of thanking Ruan Yiwen, but anyone with a discerning eye could see who those things were for.

Lu Caimei went to the village Lao Langzhong to ask, and sure enough, Ruan Yimian ate it very suitably.

A rich son, every time he comes over, he helps Ruan Yimian do farm work, Ruan Yimian cooks, he clumsily helps others to light the fire, Ruan Yimian wants something, he is more concerned than his brother.

Gradually, Lu Caimei became less restrained about him, she secretly felt that this future life was good, and she was kind to his brother Mian.

Later, Jiang Qingyao expressed his affection for Ruan Yimian and invited a matchmaker to come over to propose marriage.

The dowry he gave, as well as his attitude towards the Ruan family, can see his love for Ruan Yimian.

Lu Caimei treated Jiang Qingyao as "the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at it, the happier she becomes", she has already treated him as half a son, and this is the first time she has slapped his face.

When Jiang Qingyao was kicked out, Ruan Dexian did not stop him, he wanted to see Ruan Yimian, but they also refused.

Jiang Qingyao looked at the faces of the husband and wife, and knew that his mother had completely offended the Ruan family this time.

When Lin left that day, there was quite a lot of commotion.

Jiang Qingyao prepared more dowry gifts, and a carriage had to pull the dowry and sit people, so he couldn't sit down. After leaving the gate of Ruan's house, Lin instructed Ah Cai to go to the village to inquire and hire a carriage to come over.

The imperial court did not allow smuggling horses, how could there be a family who could afford horses in Shanliu Village, Ah Cai went for a long time before he found an ox cart to come over. By the time Ah Cai came back, there were already many sharp-eyed people who had seen the things on their carriage.

There were no secrets in the village, the Lin family scolded and left, and the news that the bride price sent by the Jiang family was brought back by the Lin family soon spread throughout the village.

Everyone was muttering in their hearts, was Ruan Yimian divorced?

The Ruan family and the Jiang family have very different family backgrounds, Ruan Yimian is a sick brother, Jiang Qingyao is at this age when he is hot-blooded, he doesn't care about these, his father and mother are not necessarily, and it is normal for the Jiang family to regret it.

Later, Ruan Yiwen went to invite Lang Zhong and was also seen, and there were rumors in the village that Brother Mian'er couldn't stand the blow of divorce and fell ill.

However, those people only dared to chew their tongues behind their backs, and they never dared to go to the Ruan family to make irresponsible remarks.

Although the Ruan family is poor, their status in the village is not low, Ruan Dexian and Ruan Yiwen are both capable, especially Ruan Yiwen, who has a very bad temper and is a showman, the village chief is polite to him, where do the people in the village dare to provoke him?

In the afternoon of the same day, the village chief of Shanliu Village and the people who were friends with the Ruan family went to see Ruan Yimian, and Ruan Yimian had already fallen asleep at that time, and the woman who came to visit comforted Lu Caimei, and the village chief and Ruan Dexian went to the hall to talk.

The village is a big village, named after the large number of pomegranate flowers growing on the mountain behind the village. There are more than 200 families in the village, and the most of them are surnamed Huo, which is a big family.

The village chief of Shanliu Village is surnamed Huo, because he is the fifth oldest among the brothers, Ruan Yimian and his generation call him "Fifth Grandpa".

This village chief is fair, very attentive to the affairs of the village, and has some prestige in the village.

He heard the rumors in the village, so he asked a few more questions.

"I heard that Brother Mian'er was divorced by the Jiang family, what the hell is going on, didn't the dowry gifts come over?"

Knowing that the village chief was concerned and couldn't hide the cancellation of the family affair, Ruan Dexian didn't hide it from him, but he didn't say it too clearly.

"The family affair has indeed been canceled, but it is not that the Jiang family has withdrawn from the family, it is our brother Mian'er who refuses to marry. The Lin family is arrogant and rude, and it is not easy to get along, Brother Mian'er is afraid that it will be difficult to marry in the past, I discussed it with his mother, my husband's family is poor, and I can't let the child be wronged, so I quit the Jiang family. ”

This is the case, the village chief took a puff of dry tobacco, pondered for a while, and then said: "Then the Jiang family husband and wife are very public, and the people who went to work in their village came back and said that their ancestors were all officials, and you didn't have a grudge against others when you quit your relatives, right?" We're afraid we can't afford to mess with such people! ”

Ruan Dexian looked at the air and said coldly: "The dowry sent by their family was returned to them intact, and it didn't delay them anything, you know Brother Mian'er's temperament, Fifth Uncle, if it weren't for the Jiang family's excesses, he would never have regretted his marriage." ”

He paused, and then said: "Caring about the child, his mother and I have endured the Lin family again and again, if this is the case, then the Jiang family still has to remember the blame, then even if you don't grudge now, Brother Mian'er will marry in the future." Our family doesn't cause trouble, but we're not afraid of things, and we will never let people bully our little brother. ”

The village chief nodded when he heard this, this Ruan family is indeed not a person who messes around, Brother Mian'er also grew up under his watch, he has a pure temperament, and he is timid, not the one who can be a demon, since Ruan Dexian said so, it must be the Jiang family who is excessive.

The village chief shook his head, sighed, and explained to his family after he went back, asking them not to follow the people outside to talk nonsense, ruining the reputation of other people's brothers, and this family affair was the Ruan family's initiative to retreat.

It is not good to be divorced, Lu Caimei was afraid that the villagers would arrange Ruan Yimian behind her back, so she also told the people who came to visit about today's events.

Although the Ruan family husband and wife insisted that Ruan Yimian didn't want Jiang Xiucai, there were still some people in the village who didn't believe it, but when Jiang Qingyao came over the next day, they had to believe it.

Jiang Qingyao brought a cart of gifts when he came, not to mention, he also had a closed door at Ruan's house, and he didn't rush to leave after being kicked out of the door, and went to Dr. Wu in the village to ask Ruan Yimian about the situation before leaving.

In the next few days, he also ran to Shanliu Village every day, and even if Lu Caimei and Ruan Dexian didn't let him in at all, he still persevered and came over.

His attitude, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like he wants to regret his marriage and abandon Ruan Yimian! The people in the village finally believed the Ruan family's statement.

There was a lot of discussion outside, and Lu Caimei and Ruan Dexian were actually a little worried, they were not only worried about Ruan Yimian's body, but also about his marriage.

Many of the grandchildren of the village's age crawled all over the ground. Their two sons and elder brother are twenty-four years old, and they still refuse to say goodbye; My younger brother is seventeen years old, and he finally got engaged, and there was another accident. Fortunately, the imperial court canceled the official matching system a few years ago, otherwise neither of these two people would have been able to escape.

Ruan Yiwen is okay, although he is older, he is a showman in the end, and he doesn't have to worry about finding a daughter-in-law.

Ruan Yimian is difficult! Brother is not as popular as a girl, he can't do any work, and he has to be supported by medicine, and now he has a "stigma" of quitting the marriage.

Ruan Yiwen saw that his father and mother were worried about what to do with Brother Mian'er when they got old, and he didn't care, he raised his eyebrows slightly: "Dad, mother, don't worry about it, Brother Mian'er still has a brother!" I have studied so many books, even if I can't pass the exam and can't be an official, I can still be a master and collect some restraints to support him. ”

"And, who says he won't be able to get married? Maybe he can marry someone better than Jiang Qingyao! ”

*

When Ruan Yimian came to his senses, his brother had already returned to the town to study.

His mother guarded him in the house, watching him wake up, hurriedly put down the embroidery work in his hand, and walked to the side of the bed in a few steps: "Brother Mian'er woke up?" Thirsty or not, there's nothing uncomfortable, right? ”

She poured a glass of warm water and handed it to Ruan Yimian: "You frightened my mother this time, if it weren't for Dr. Wu saying that you were nothing serious, but you didn't rest well and got cold, your mother would have died in a hurry!" ”

Ruan Yimian took two sips of water, held the cup and looked at his mother apologetically: "Mother, I'm sorry, I made you worry again." ”

Lu Caimei touched his face, and helped him tuck the quilt in front of him: "Silly boy, you have to pay careful attention to your body in the future!" ”

Ruan Yimian nodded, Lu Caimei said a few more words, and went to the kitchen to serve him food.

Ruan Dexian was doing carpentry work at home today, and when he heard that his son had woken up, he hurriedly came over to take a look.

Ruan Yimian saw that his father didn't leave after caring about him, and looked at him with a look of desire to speak, and was very puzzled: "Dad, is there something wrong?" ”

"Ahem, that ......"

Lu Caimei came back with porridge and saw her man in Ruan Yimian's house, so she pushed him angrily: "The child just woke up, and his stomach is still hungry!" You go and help him heat up the medicine, don't delay his meal here. ”

When Ruan Dexian heard this, he honestly went to give his son hot medicine.

As soon as he left, Lu Caimei's face changed again, Ruan Yimian finished drinking the porridge and found that his mother had been looking at him, and there was some worry on her face, so she asked, "Mother, what is the matter, you can tell me directly." ”

Lu Caimei hesitated for a while, sighed faintly, and finally told Jiang Qingyao that he had come over every day in the past few days, and said that he would bring his mother over to make amends when Ruan Yimian woke up.

The Lin family bullied Ruan Yimian so much last time, Lu Caimei and Ruan Dexian both remembered in their hearts that they were unwilling to accept the Jiang family's apology, but they were afraid that their son would be soft-hearted.

After all, this is Ruan Yimian's lifelong event, and he has to let him make his own decisions.

"Mother, since we have already withdrawn from our family, then we have nothing to do with the Jiang family."

Ruan Yimian's voice was soft and glutinous, but his tone was very firm, although he didn't say how to do it, but with his words, Lu Caimei understood, and when Jiang Qingyao came over again in the future, they would just send people away.

Ruan Yimian's love first opened, Lu Caimei and Ruan Dexian were worried that he couldn't let go, seeing that his face was so calm and there was no sign of sadness, Lu Caimei was relieved.

After feeling more relaxed, Lu Caimei also had the heart to joke with her son: "Your brother said that you can find a better one, but you can't find it, and he supports you, you have to supervise your brother to study well in the future, and when he becomes a big official, you can enjoy happiness!" ”
