The sunset gradually sinks in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun shines into a dilapidated courtyard in the outer mansion of Yifu, a middle-aged woman puts her hands intertwined in front of her, and the facial features on her face are just right.

It's just that everything that is perfect is destroyed by the hideous scar with a clear groove next to the wings of the nose.

"Squeak..."

Zhai Lang, who had finished doing chores, pushed open the courtyard door, pounded his waist weakly with his fists, and the tired color was clear at a glance, but when he saw the woman standing under the afterglow, the tired color on his face disappeared abruptly, replaced by a smile, and his back was slightly straightened, and then he slowly greeted him, and said with a smile: "Mother, why did you come out?"

Yuan Shi looked at Zhai Lang, who was smiling and didn't speak, stretched out his hand and pinched his arm that was swollen from too much work, and his heart was filled with sadness, and said, "Come to eat first, and my mother will bring you medicine and wine later." ”

Zhai Lang still wanted to say something, he always felt that today's mother was a little different from the past, but when he saw the sad look on Yuan's face, the words that came to his mouth were swallowed back again, and he followed Yuan into the courtyard in response.

After a while, Zhai Lang looked at the dishes served by the Yuan family on the wooden table, and his eyes couldn't help but be a little stupid.

Roast duck.

Roast chicks.

Roasted goose.

......

This dish is a dish that he usually wants to eat but can't afford to eat, but now it is really placed in front of him, his throat unconsciously swallowed saliva, and finally suppressed the surprise in his heart, his eyes moved away from those foods with great difficulty, and he wondered: "Mother, where do we get the money to buy these things?"

Yuan Shi smiled and did not answer, the speed of the plate in his hand became faster and faster, and after a while, the entire wooden table was full of delicacies, and then he smiled: "You have to go to Houfu every day to do those dirty and tiring work, how can you withstand it if you don't eat some good body?"

As he spoke, Yuan's brows furrowed slightly, slapped his thigh suddenly, and said hurriedly: "You go to the stove and bring that chicken soup, it's not easy to use your brain when you're old!"

Zhai Lang was slightly stunned, and there is chicken soup?

But now he hurriedly responded, turned around and ran out with a full stomach of questions, Yuan Shi watched Zhai Lang's figure disappear into the room, his throat suddenly swelled with a sense of pain, and he hurriedly pulled out a silk handkerchief from his waist and covered it between his mouth and tongue, and after a cough, he slowly spread out the silk handkerchief in his hand, and a dazzling scarlet came into view.

Yuan sighed, and at this time, Zhai Lang's footsteps happened to be heard outside the door, his face changed suddenly, and he hurriedly wiped the corners of his mouth, and then hid the silk handkerchief back to his waist, all of which were in an instant, and the next second Zhai Lang entered the room with chicken soup.

"Mother, you...."Zhai Lang put the chicken soup on the table, his eyes unconsciously swept over his hands on his knees, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

Looking at the expression on Zhai Lang's face, Yuan's heart jumped, wasn't it discovered?

"Where's the jade bracelet in your hand?"

Hearing this, Yuan slowly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, picked up a chicken leg with chopsticks, and said with a smile: "Son, come and taste this roast chicken, it's fragrant!"

"Where's the jade bracelet in your hand?"

"Let's try this pine flower belly, the taste is also excellent!" Yuan picked up another chopstick belly and put it in Zhai Lang's bowl.

"Where's the jade bracelet in your hand?" Zhai Lang kept repeating the same question tirelessly, not paying the slightest attention to the food in the bowl, even though they were volatilizing an incomparably tempting fragrance.

"Smack...."

Yuan Shi suddenly put the chopsticks on the table, frowned, stared at Zhai Lang with a pair of beautiful eyes, and said angrily: "Are you stupid kid, what do you have to do with so much food in front of you!"

Zhai Lang still said the same sentence, staring at Yuan's eyes, and asked word by word: "You.. Target.. Jade.. Bracelet.. What?"

Yuan Shi was a little dodged by Zhai Lang's scorching gaze, lowered his head and did not speak, and said to him in silence.

Looking at Yuan's appearance, Zhai Lang was a little speechless, every time he encountered something, he didn't speak, there was a precedent before, and some valuable things at home would be secretly taken to maintain the family's income, but this time it was different, and he hurriedly got up and took her hand and asked, "Did you take it?"

Yuan still didn't speak, still lowered his head and didn't say a word, which made Zhai Lang so depressed, and said hurriedly: "That bracelet is the dowry that grandma left you before she died, how can this be taken away?"

"Or the pawnshop from before?"

After that, Zhai Lang couldn't sit still anymore, got up and was about to run out, but before he could take a step, he was grabbed by Yuan's family, and he was about to say something when he turned around, but when he saw the tears on Yuan's face, his heart felt like he was hit hard by a heavy hammer, and he opened his mouth but didn't say anything.

"You do those dirty and tiring jobs every day, watching you endure hardships, my mother's heart hurts, your body will collapse sooner or later without some nutrition!"

Zhai Lang's eyes gradually turned red, and he sat down and took his mother's hand and said softly: "But that's your dowry, this... It doesn't mean the same!"

He never thought that his mother would take this object away, after all, this was the last thing his grandmother left to his mother, and the meaning represented was far different from those cold decorative things.

"Mother doesn't care, as long as you can be good, you can do whatever you want your mother to do!" Yuan Shi's hazy eyes gently looked at Zhai Lang's calloused hands, and said with a smile.

"Mother..."

"Okay, let's eat first, or it'll be cold!"

"Come, drink some chicken soup first!" Yuan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, scooped up the mellow chicken soup, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the money this time is enough for our mother and mother for more than half a year, come and drink some soup to warm up!"

Zhai Lang trembled and took the chicken soup silently, his mother has paid too much for this family, and by the candlelight on the side, Zhai Lang looked at the hideous scar on Yuan's face, and the hatred in his heart was gradually magnified.

Back then, the Yi Mansion was invited to go out, Chenghai was drunk and passed through the Outer Mansion, and coincidentally met the Yuan family who had just returned from work, and was immediately shocked by his beauty, and immediately wanted to forcibly occupy her, but was stopped by the eldest lady who also went back to the house, and was reprimanded.

And after my mother came back, so as not to happen like this again, for fear that it would affect me, I slashed my face with the bead hairpin, and became an ugly monster that everyone feared, and the work in my hand was also lost.

Yi Chenghai, if I can't slash you in this life, I will be a son of man in vain!!

.......

At the same time, in the right wing of Yi Mansion, Yi Chenghai was lying comfortably on the bed, his head buried deep in the ravine, and he took a sharp breath, which made the lovely people in front of him laugh.

Ping'er took the tip of the hair on the side and gently swept it over her man, and said in a grueful voice: "Xianggong~, you have to make decisions for others, I think my poor parents are the souls of Chen Feng's sword, and the concubine is unwilling!"

At the same time, the weak, boneless little hand gradually reached out to .....

"Shhh

Refresh your mind!!

Yi Chenghai gasped, looking at Ping'er's eyes becoming softer and softer, sure enough, you know me best!!

Just about to turn over and become a landlord, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the door, Yi Chenghai did not respond, and continued to do what he liked, but the knocks sounded one after another, which immediately made him angry and jumped out of bed with a scolding.

"Who doesn't sleep at night, it's a good thing for Lao Tzu!"

"I'm going to have to peel you off!!"

Between the words, the whole person had already come to the door, and opened the door bolt with a "snap", but the next scene really made his pupils shrink!

"How.... It's you...."
