Shen Lvman was led by her, wondering: "How do you get those children to play with Liu'er willingly? Children are not so easy to persuade, and this is not good, right? Those children in the village also Not everyone is good-natured, in case Liu'er is bullied in the future..."

As she said so, she frowned.

Jing Aoxue casually smiled and said: "Yeah, children do things too freely. We found playmates for Liu'er to make her cheerful, not to let her be bullied. So we went to find the parents of those children. , I remember that Wu Zhiyong had a child, he is reliable and trustworthy, and the children he educates must be good."

Shen Luman felt a little speechless when she heard the words. Seeing that Jing Aoxue was indeed heading for the thatched cottage, she said, "But Wu Zhiyong left the village early this morning."

Jing Aoxue nodded, and said: "I know, he's gone to look for the person Gu Baiwei was looking for, and he's not in the village. But his brother Wu Zhi'an is here, he's all from the Wu family, Wu Zhi'an is more simple and honest than his brother .”

Shen Lvman paused, and said helplessly: "But Wu Zhian is not in that direction, he went to renovate our field."

Jing Aoxue was taken aback for a moment, but she forgot about it and patted her forehead quickly, but now that she was almost near the thatched cottage, she sighed and said, "Forget it, let's go to the working people first to see See, which one is trustworthy."

Shen Lvman lowered her head to think, but after thinking for a long time, she didn't have a deep impression of the others, and naturally she didn't know which one had a good character.

The reason why she was so familiar with the Wu family brothers was that Jing Aoxue had warned her to stay away from Wu Zhiyong before, so she became slightly concerned about this man, thinking that there was a dispute between them, and worried that Wu Zhiyong would retaliate against Jing Aoxue.

On the other hand, this pair of brothers is really good, they work practically and hard, and they can finish more than the specified amount without being watched all the time.

Such a person is hard not to please the boss.

Naturally, Shen Luman is also the same, she sighed, thinking: let's go and see first.

The two walked outside the thatched cottage, and before they went in, they noticed several women gathered at the door, chatting with the young men working inside.

Jing Aoxue glanced at them casually, and found that she didn't know any of them, and planned to move on without paying attention.

Shen Luman grabbed her, and when Jing Aoxue turned her head in confusion, she shook her head and led her around to the other side of the thatched cottage.

Jing Aoxue leaned against the wall and said with a smile: "Who are those people? It's worth your vigilance."

Shen Lvman paused, and then said: "It's not a powerful person, but it's not easy to get along with. Let's wait until they leave."

When Shen Luman said so, she poked her head and took a look, and was slightly relieved when she saw that the women hadn't noticed her.

She has lived in the village for many years. Although she doesn't have a deep friendship with the villagers, after a few years, she also knows everyone in the village.

And those few women are well-known gossip women in the village, they like to get together on weekdays and gossip about the parents and the west.

They are warm-hearted and familiar with each other. When Shen Luman first came to the village, she didn't know anyone. Jing Aoxue had that kind of character, and she rarely stayed in the village. At first, she walked alone for a long time. , no one came to talk to her, of course, she just didn't care much.

But these women suddenly took the initiative to come up to her one day, and pulled her to talk a lot, trying to get out of her identity and background.

Shen Luman made up lies to deal with them. In exchange for satisfying their gossip psychology, they also introduced each of the villagers to her.

At first, she also accepted their love.

It's just that after getting along for a long time, she found that these women's attitudes towards her had changed.

They are all human beings. Although Shen Luman kept her details to herself, she showed a lot of truth in the details.

The women knew that she was an unfavored wife and had no status in the family. The poor family needed her as a hunting woman to support the family, so they looked down on her and were unwilling to associate with her.

After the friendship faded, even if they met her occasionally in the village, the women would just pretend they didn't know her, or roll their eyes and make fun of her.

Fortunately, Shen Luman is a broad-minded person, and she doesn't care about people or things she doesn't care about.

If she was the only one here today, it would be fine for those women to gossip and listen.

But Jing Aoxue was by her side, and her reputation in the village was even worse than her own. Whenever these gossip women talked about the scum in the village, they would mention Jing Aoxue and shake their heads.

If Jing Aoxue confronted them head-on, maybe they would have some cynicism.

They spoke harsh words, and she was afraid that Jing Aoxue would be sad, and she was also afraid that Jing Aoxue's temper would quarrel or even fight with them after hearing these words.

There was no point in arguing with a few mortals, so Shen Luman's first reaction was to drag Jing Aoxue away from them and hide from those women when they didn't notice them coming.

Jing Aoxue was bored, so she pricked up her ears to listen to the movement over there, and her eyes turned around Shen Luman unconsciously.

The other party's complexion was not very good at the moment, Jing Aoxue naturally thought more in her heart, and was about to say something to comfort her, when those women laughed loudly.

Their voices were so harsh that Jing Aoxue frowned.

She didn't want to stand here, so she took Shen Luman's hand and pulled her to sit under a small tree by the river.

In this position, you can not only rely on the vegetation on the river bank to cover your body, but also see the scene in front of the thatched cottage. Those women's voices are so loud that they can be heard from a long distance away.

She thought that Shen Luman had been tired at the foot of the mountain for a long time today, and she might feel uncomfortable, so she hugged her considerately.

Shen Luman's cheeks became hot, and she struggled a few times but couldn't get away. She could only look ahead to divert her attention, but her earlobes turned red quietly.

Outside the thatched cottage, several women in their 30s and [-]s were making noise.

One of them, a short, fat woman in her 30s with a sharp voice, said enviously: "If you want me to say, the most capable of us is the Zhang family's aunt. Look at her, since she got married, It hurts to be held in the palm of the hand by Mr. Zhang, and Mr. Zhang is a practical and capable person, and this day is so nourishing and happy!"

Another woman also hurriedly responded: "Who says it's not? Aunt Zhang's life is not only good, but she can also give birth. She gave birth to a child with a handle in her first child, and a daughter in her second child. As long as you have both sons and daughters, how can you get together? Hey, it’s not like me... I’ve been married for so many years, I only gave birth to a son last year, and I’ve been complained by my mother-in-law all day long..."

She sighed, and the younger woman among them seemed to be the most beautiful among them, she was Aunt Zhang, and she smiled and said: "Don't sigh, you will scare away all your luck, let's be women Yes, what do you want to do in this life? Isn’t it just for the family to be happy and the children to be proud? My kid is naughty and only causes trouble on weekdays. I don’t like to talk to her. It’s better to be a daughter. .”

The short and fat woman said: "That is to say, but it also depends on who gave birth to the girl. There are also unmarried losers in the village who are in their 20s, that is, your Qiaoer, who was born to follow you." , who is handsome and beautiful, and can embroider well, at the age of seven or eight, many people have asked me for news."

Jing Aoxue sneered when she heard the words, and said to herself: Seven or eight years old is too early, no serious parents would do such a thing.

Another tall and thin woman nodded hurriedly, and said: "Yes, I like Qiaoer, but that kid in my family is not worthy of such a beautiful girl at all. Miss Qianjin is no match. I heard before that the Liu family even came to invite Qiaoer to the mansion to study with the young ladies, alas, this is a big face."

Liu family?

Jing Aoxue frowned, and said to herself: Why does it sound so familiar?

She was thinking about where she had heard about the Liu family, and Aunt Zhang raised her chin and said modestly: "Everywhere, it's all Madam who is willing to give face. My Qiao'er is also lucky, and it doesn't matter."

Others didn't think so, and they all praised it.

A group of people walked away while boasting.

Jing Aoxue sat on the spot for a while, she frowned and looked thoughtful, and Shen Luman didn't want to disturb her, so she nestled in her arms and listened to her steady heartbeat.

After a while, Jing Aoxue said: "I think of the Liu family."

She just said a word, without beginning or end, Shen Luman got up from her arms curiously, and asked, "What's wrong with the Liu family?"

Jing Aoxue sneered, and said: "Didn't we meet Liang Shengrong in the town yesterday? Speaking of the Liu family, he mentioned it to me before. We met on the street at that time, and I saw him looking at Liu'er His eyes were not friendly, so he asked you to take Liu'er home first, do you remember this matter?"

Shen Luman naturally remembered that she was very impressed by this incident. She originally thought that Jing Aoxue had changed and took her and Liu Er to a restaurant for dinner, but she didn't expect that as soon as she met Liang Shengrong, she would drive her home and go to the casino to gamble with Liang Shengrong. All afternoon, I didn't come back until evening.

She had already given up her mind at that time, and didn't think too much about it, until Jing Aoxue generously gave her the silver ticket, and she didn't know that Jing Aoxue had won a lot of money.

That night, she kindly scrubbed the drunken Jing Aoxue's body because of this incident.

At this time, when Jing Aoxue mentioned what happened that day, she frowned. She always felt that anything related to Liang Shengrong would not be a good thing, and this matter actually involved Liu Er.

How dare Liang Shengrong!Last time it was really cheap for him!

Shen Luman's heart was slightly cold, and Jing Aoxue continued: "Last time, Liang Shengrong persuaded me to send Liu'er to the Liu family to be a maidservant for Mrs. Liu's third son. Going to be a slave to someone else, so I rejected his proposal at that time."

Shen Luman immediately said: "Well done, Liang Shengrong has bad intentions for us, this matter is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface, there may be a conspiracy."

Jing Aoxue shrugged her shoulders and said: "It doesn't matter, anyway, it's good that Liu'er is fine. Speaking of which, we have been out for a long time. I was discouraged by those women. With such a mother, the children who are educated will not do much. So, let’s go directly to the field to find Wu Zhi’an.”

Shen Luman nodded, and the two got up from the weeds by the river and walked in another direction.

Walking halfway, Jing Aoxue thought that Liu'er was alone under the tree, waiting for so long alone, she should start to get scared, they should go and take Liu'er to take her with her.

So, they went to the previous place to find Liu'er.

When they arrived at the place, they didn't see Liu'er. They called Liu'er's name. If she was nearby, she would definitely respond, but they shouted for a long time, but Liu'er didn't show up. Shen Luman's expression changed at that time, panicked Get restless.

Jing Aoxue was also upset for a moment, and then she thought that this is a peaceful and peaceful village, and nothing serious would happen, so she told Shen Luman, and the two split up to find her.

Shen Luman nodded hurriedly and looked around.

Jing Aoxue walked to the side of the big tree and mobilized the wood-type abilities in her body. Her wood-type abilities are much stronger now, and she can use many additional skills.

When she was brewing the pill before, she added many of her own abilities to it.

As the master of the ability, she can sense the wood element in the air, and she can even feel the location of her ability, similar to the traces of spiritual energy in the world of cultivating immortals.

It's just that her traces are more special and have a longer effective time.

She closed her eyes and sensed it, and immediately found two light spots in the surrounding area. The stronger one must be Shen Luman, because she had accumulated more wood-type abilities in her body after taking the pill for seven days.

Then the relatively few ones are naturally Liu'er.

She opened her eyes and followed the direction of the induction to look for it. She was wondering that the light spot was very close to her. Liu Er should have heard their voices before, but she didn't respond. Could something really happen? .

She was flustered and ran over quickly, but she didn't see Liu'er, but she saw Shen Luman who had separated from her not long ago.

Jing Aoxue: "..."

Seeing her coming, Shen Lvman thought she had found Liu'er, and came over with a sigh of relief, looked behind her, but did not see Liu'er, so she frowned and asked, "Where is Liu'er?"

Jing Aoxue looked at her speechlessly, and a few messy thoughts flashed in her mind, but now was not the time to think about them, so she said: "I found her, I was worried that you were too anxious, so I came here and asked you to come with me."

Shen Luman was overjoyed when she heard the words, and hurriedly said: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go."

Jing Aoxue was pushed by her, she sensed another supernatural light spot, a little far away from here, she was worried that Liu Er's emotions would gain the upper hand, so she didn't think much about it.

The two quickened their pace and almost ran over.

Then I saw the intact Liu'er, sitting on the grass, playing with a few children.

Those children seemed to be under ten years old, and they gathered together curiously at this time, looking at the soft white rabbit in the middle, and reaching out their hands to poke it from time to time.

It seemed that he was attracted by the little rabbit.

Seeing this, Shen Luman relaxed her whole body, relying on Jing Aoxue to stabilize her body.

She was really afraid that something would happen to Liu'er, it really scared her just now.

Seeing this scene, Jing Aoxue felt annoyed and amused. Before that, she was thinking of finding playmates for Liu'er, but in fact, the adults were too worried. As long as you give the children some candy and new gadgets, they will automatically join them.

Rather, she had done so before.

She and Shen Lvman looked at each other, and they both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes, and they didn't go up to disturb the children's play, but walked to the distant field ridge and sat down.

Shen Luman looked at the bright smile on Liu'er's face, and said: "In the future, I will bring back more prey for Liu'er. Liu'er likes these, and so do the children."

Jing Aoxue nodded, and said: "It's because we thought too much before. The children's affairs should be left to them to solve by themselves. See how happy Liu'er is smiling."

"Yes."

They stared at the front quietly. After a while, there were a few steady footsteps behind them. They both heard them, but they thought the other was passing by, so they didn't care.

Until Wu Zhian's voice came, saying: "Hey, why are you here? I've been looking for you for a long time."

Jing Aoxue turned her head to look at him, and saw that he was not alone, but beside him was a familiar farmer and two women, one old and one young.

She guessed that these people should be Wu Zhian's family members, so she got up from the ground, patted the dust behind her, and said, "What do you want from me?"

Wu Zhian rolled his eyes, and said reluctantly: "It's not my brother who told me, let me tell you that he will go out for more than a month before he comes back, and ask you to stay in the village as much as possible and don't run around, otherwise I won't come."

After he finished speaking, he was poked by the farmer next to him with his arm. Wu Zhian curled his lips and turned his head to look in another direction unwillingly.

Looking at his appearance, it seems that he is still angry about the fight between her and Wu Zhiyong.

Jing Aoxue didn't care either, and said with a smile, "Well, I know, I won't leave for the time being."

Wu Zhian muttered, "It's good to know!"

The farmer beside him glared at him, turned his head and said politely to Jing Aoxue: "Jing Yaren, Mrs. Jing, this worthless boy from my family has caused you trouble during this time, I will take care of him when I go back."

Jing Aoxue already knew that he was the father of the Wu Zhian brothers, so she said with a smile on her face: "That's not necessary, I appreciate his straightforward character, his brother Wu Zhiyong is my friend, and he is even more upright and wise. Brothers are all talents of pillars, it must be my uncle who teaches well, and I admire you."

Uncle Wu was very happy when he heard her praise his son, and a deep smile appeared on his face.

He had a bad impression of Jing Aoxue before, but after hearing his eldest son praise her for being a good life for a few days, his impression changed a lot. Seeing her extraordinary manners and thoughtfulness in conversation today, he felt a little more fond of her.

He smiled and chatted with Jing Aoxue for a while, until he was urged by his wife, Aunt Wu, without a trace, and he remembered that they still had important matters today, so he left.

Jing Aoxue looked at the back of their family going away, Uncle Wu seemed to lower his head and said something, Wu Zhian scratched his head and nodded hesitantly, and was poked by Uncle Wu again, looking like a warm family scene.

Although she didn't talk about it before, she was the most envious in her heart.

She even hoped that when she was old, she could live a peaceful and happy life like theirs.

She sat on the ridge of the field, leaning against Shen Luman, watching Liu'er play with the children.

It wasn't until dusk that the children were all hungry, so they dispersed and went home one after another.

Liu'er had seen them a long time ago, and she came over a few times before, but was persuaded by Jing Aoxue to continue playing.

At this time she came over, her cheeks flushed with a smile, and she said: "Mother, mother, let's go home."

Jing Aoxue wiped the sweat off her forehead with a handkerchief, and said, "Did Liu Er enjoy playing today?"

Liu'er obediently stood where she was, and let Jing Aoxue wipe her sweat, saying: "Happy, they are fine."

She still stuttered, and at first she didn't dare to speak, for fear of being laughed at by other children.

Afterwards, I couldn't help but say a few words, the boys laughed immediately, but was stopped by another little girl, and told them not to laugh, otherwise they were not allowed to play with the bunny, and no one would laugh at her after that, and it was very Interested in imitating her, everyone stuttered.

Seeing that she was happy from the bottom of her heart, Jing Aoxue was also happy, and said: "Well, from now on, Liu'er will go out often, let's play with them."

Liu'er nodded, but then shook her head again, saying: "I want to study, Qiaoer, sister, I want to study, get married, get married."

Yo, the child is only so old that he wants to get married.

This girl named Qiao'er is really precocious.

Wait, this girl's name is Qiaoer, and the little girl we talked about in front of the thatched cottage is also Qiaoer.

Could it be the same Qiaoer?

Jing Aoxue frowned and asked, "What's Miss Qiao'er's last name?"

Liu'er tilted her head and looked at her curiously. She didn't know why her mother asked such a question, but she said honestly, "My surname is Zhang."

That's right, Qiao'er is indeed Zhang's aunt's girl.

Now, it's a little troublesome.

But let's make sure first, she thought so, and inquired some information about Qiao'er from Liu'er.

Liu'er didn't know much, and only said that Zhang Qiao'er was a pretty girl; as long as she said no to one thing, those boys would not do it, which sounded like the role of the king of children.

Well, she is a rare good girl, and in a few days she will go to town to study with Miss Liu's family...

Jing Aoxue was thoughtful, weighing whether she should intervene in this matter.

According to her indifferent temperament to outsiders, she is unwilling to take care of it. The Liu family has backers just like the boss of the gambling shop. The family members are still officials in the capital, which is more difficult to deal with than the boss.

If she confronts the Liu family head-on, she will only suffer at the moment.

The best way is to let Zhang Qiaoer "have an accident" openly, so that she will lose this good job and not offend the Liu family.

It sounds simple, but it is a bit troublesome in practice.

Jing Aoxue was most afraid of trouble, and said to herself: Let's take another look and see if this Qiaoer is worth her effort to help.
