Seeing Jin Yu's appearance, she immediately picked up the letter.

Read it in a hurry.

"Stop crying, you man with a big ass, bah, bah, bah, man, why are you crying?"

"Ah? I'm not crying, Sister Xiaoxia. I'm just thinking about how to defeat them. Hey, I'm so useless. If you hadn't helped me, Sister Xiaoxia, I would still be trapped in the brothel. My parents and eldest brother must have You’ll think I’m useless.”

Jinyu raised his head blankly.

Youyou said.

"I think your family may want you to live well, and you are overestimating your ability. Maybe your whole family will be reunited. It's better to look forward to the future. Evil will be punished by nature, and no one can be lucky all the time. , let’s see when the one from the Imperial City stops being blind.”

Yan Xia's words made Jin Yu stand up in fright.

He quickly covered Yan Xia's mouth.

"Hush, Sister Xiaoxia, you must not say such rebellious words outside. If people hear it, they will be executed."

The scene of his house being ransacked that day was still playing out in front of Jin Yu's eyes. He was afraid that if someone heard what Yan Xia just said, he would end up with the same fate as him.

"Don't worry, I'm just telling you. I'm not stupid. Besides, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. He can't even control corrupt officials, but he can control me."

Yan Xia patted Jin Yu's hand away and whispered.

If the man on the dragon throne really wanted to rob her family one day in the future, she would use space to teleport to the emperor's bedside and kill him.

Then take your family with you to the deep mountains and old forests to survive until the dynasty is destroyed and then come out.

Afraid of a hammer.

"Sister Xiaoxia, I forgot to ask you, where did you get this letter?"

Jin Yu's words made Yan Xia completely confused.

Boy, she forgot all about it.

"Well, there's someone below me."

Yan Xia thought for a long time before coming up with such a sentence.

Jinyu nodded half-understanding.

He made a lot of assumptions, thinking that Yan Xia had secretly tricked the secret guard.

I just got these letters.

As for the theft in Xu's house, he didn't think about it. After all, the people in Jiangnan County only knew that the jewelry box was lost in Xu Wenyan's house, but they didn't know that he had lost his letters.

"Okay, you go back to bed early. Leave the letters here for safety. Everyone is exhausted today. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

Yan Xia took the letter and ran away, fearing that he would ask more questions.

This hurried figure made Jinyu misunderstand, thinking that Yan Xia was sleepy.

Baihua Village at this time.

All the villagers have returned to their homes long ago, except Zhu Qiumei.

Because she targeted Yan Xia at the Full Moon Wine, Jin Yu wore small shoes. He deliberately arranged for Zhu Qiumei to be sent in an ox cart, lying that the carriage in front could not fit.

I also privately told the driver of the bullock cart to slow down. The slower the better.

The driver took half a tael of silver, so he was naturally very obedient. He drove the cart slowly, and the people walking on the roadside were faster than the ox cart.

Zhu Qiumei wanted to get out of the car and walk alone, but when she thought about walking so far.

She still backed down.

I could only urge the coachman over and over again.

The coachman heard her urging, going in one ear and out the other.

It was not until the moon hung in the sky that Zhu Qiumei arrived at the entrance of the village.

"Hurry up and kill you old cow. What a piece of shit! It's so slow. I can walk faster than you drive. Bah——"

"It's such a wicked thing. You won't let me ride in a carriage, but you'll have to ride in an ox-cart. You're such a rotten thing. Don't you just want to hate me for talking about Yan's family? You little pup, you can't tell if he looks like Yan's family at a glance. , no wonder I bought a house in the town, and spent a long time raising a pretty boy, a couple of adulterers, bah bah bah - "

Only when the bullock cart disappeared did Zhu Qiumei dare to curse loudly.

She stood at the entrance of the village. The night wind was slightly cold, which shocked her whole body.

Coupled with the unknown sound of insects, Zhu Qiumei realized she was scared after scolding her. She hurriedly ran home without daring to look back.

"Bang bang bang-"

"Open the door, I'm back -"

Arriving at the door of her home, Zhu Qiumei banged the door.

"Why are you back so late? Come in quickly. Don't let the villagers see you. They will think you have done something shameful and you will lose the face of the Zhu family."

The person who opened the door was Zhu Qiumei's mother-in-law, Tian.

Tian gave birth to a son and a daughter. Because her family was poor, in order to find a wife for her eldest son, she married off her youngest daughter Qiumei early.

I received a betrothal gift of three taels of silver.

Because the maximum betrothal gift in this village was two taels, Zhu Qiumei married far away.

It’s been several years since I came back.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. Five years ago, her eldest son got caught in the rain and caught wind and cold, and he passed away just like that.

And her daughter-in-law also lost her vitality because she got married and gave birth to nine children in a row, so she went with her eldest son.

She was left with only one grandson, the only child of the Zhu family.

Zhu Guijiu.

10 years old this year.

As for the first eight granddaughters, some drowned in urine buckets, some were thrown to high mountains, and some slept in the river.

After all, no one is alive.

It was precisely because their son was dead that they were willing to let Zhu Qiumei return to her parents' home.

After all, they have to rely on others to support them when they get old, and their grandson is only 10 years old. If they suddenly pass away, the grandson will be helpless.

With the idea of ​​letting their daughter and grandchildren support their grandson, the old couple of the Zhu family asked Zhu Qiumei to come back to live.

Tian's cheekbones were high and her face was slanted, making her already mean face look even more terrifying.

Mrs. Tian put on a coat and sleeping clothes underneath. She closed the courtyard door and stood in the courtyard cursing Zhu Qiumei.

"Where have you been? Have you been fooling around with a wild man? If you bring shame to the Zhu family, you can go out and live with the long pile. Your father doesn't know. If your father is not asleep yet, I’m not sure how I’m going to scold you. Go back to your house quickly. Get up early to work tomorrow. The autumn harvest will be in half a month. Don’t run anywhere. The crops in the fields still depend on you. Your father and I are getting old. No, Xiaojiu is only ten years old. How can he do farm work? The burden of the family still depends on you. You are a widow, so you should be responsible on weekdays, otherwise the villagers will gossip about you behind your back, do you understand?"

Tian's eyes narrowed.

The eyelids drooped because they were too loose.

It looks like triangular eyes.

"Mom, I didn't do anything. I went to town. Yan Xia is organizing a full-moon party for her granddaughter today. You really don't know. It was so grand that the whole front yard was filled up. , and the county magistrate’s wife gave Yan Xia a gift. Oops, I don’t know how she got along so well. I thought, I played well with her when I was a child, so I went to get close to her. Didn’t she have two daughters? Let my parents marry Yan Xia's daughter, and our family will have no worries about food and drink. The house Yan Xia bought in the town is so big. I heard that it has three courtyards and a hole in the ground. How many people can live in it? .”
