When Ruan's mother left the village, all the girls in the village cast envious and jealous eyes on her, and some jealous people even discussed with others in private when Ruan's mother would be abandoned by Ruan's father.

After all, how many men in this world can tolerate a woman who has ruined her appearance and is unable to bear a son?

"Hey, Niang Hui has done a lot to the Ruan family. Although she failed to have a son, Master Ruan has been able to study and take the exams for so many years. She has contributed a lot. She has no son, and married two concubines. I am a peasant woman who understands the truth, Master Ruan will not fail to understand." Another woman spat at the sour-spoken man, "You just envy someone who became an official wife, look at how cowardly your man is, Even if you can't control him, what do you expect him to do?"

"What's wrong with my man afraid of me? At least he doesn't dare to bring children home anymore! In the future, Mr. Ruan will find some young and beautiful little scumbags. Once those people give birth to sons, let's see how Tan Hui can live in that house!"

These days, Ruan's mother heard these words a lot. Of course, those women didn't have the courage to say it in front of her. They only dared to shout loudly outside the Ruan's house, as if the people inside would not hear them.

They didn't know that Ruan's mother didn't care about these words at all. As early as the night when Ruan's father came back, they had nothing to do with each other.

They just gritted their teeth secretly, while spurning their own husband's incompetence, while thinking about why the old lady of the Ruan family chose a fleeing beggar as her daughter-in-law?Aren't they prettier than this woman with half her face burned?Isn't he richer than this poor and white woman?No matter how you look at them, they are all better than this woman. Why did the old lady choose her?

If I was the one who was chosen to be the daughter-in-law of the Ruan family, then I would be the one who enjoys the rich clothes and food now!

Father Ruan is going to prepare for the next year's exam, and Mr. Liu has already prepared a house for him, just waiting for him to go back to study his homework.

The food and clothing in the Liu family are all very good, and there are servants to take care of him when he travels. After only staying for a few months, he developed a wealth problem, which made Father Ruan toss and turn on the bed he had slept in for more than 30 years, feeling disgusted for a while. The bed was too hard, and after a while he felt that there were bugs on the bed, but he couldn't sleep, but in just two days, his face was sallow.

After arranging things in his hometown, he couldn't wait to leave. He didn't want to stay any longer. He climbed into the carriage that Mr. Liu picked him up and saw his wife... No, they are not husband and wife anymore. Hui, his complexion suddenly turned half black.

He drank too much wine that night, and when he came back, his mind was not clear, so he hurriedly finished the matter and wrote the divorce letter, but this woman took 500 taels of silver for nothing!After his mind cleared up the next day, his intestines were green with regret, and he bled from distress. That was 500 taels of silver!

Ruan's father was a poor scholar from a small family. His vision was more than a little bit narrow. Even if he climbed to the top of Master Liu, he would be equal to the sky-high wealth, but in his eyes, the 500 taels of silver were still worth worrying about.

Sure enough, drinking was a mistake, so how could he be so easily fooled by this woman's tricks?

The carriage drove away from the village amidst cheers. Hearing the voices of the villagers receding away, Ruan's father even had a thought in his heart to take back the extra 400 taels of silver.

But this woman is too fierce. Ever since her daughter was married off by herself, she has become like a shrew!That day he dared to point a knife at him and threaten him... Father Ruan looked at Mother Ruan's bulging bag, and he didn't mention the 400 taels of silver just because he was afraid that the other party would pull out another knife from it.

But Ruan's father guessed right, Ruan's mother did carry a knife with her, and Ruan's mother did not trust Ruan's father's character at all, fearing that the other party would regret attacking her and take away the money for her and her daughter's livelihood. There were only three of them, and the coachman belonged to Mr. Liu, so he was alone and helpless when he really did it.

"You can let me go when you get to the county, and I can walk the rest of the way by myself," Ruan's mother said.

"How do I know you won't go back and ruin my reputation with the money?" Father Ruan glanced at her.

"It's not good for me to go somewhere to have fun with these 500 taels of silver. Why do I go back to that poor village? Besides, I really want to go back and ruin your reputation. It doesn't matter where I get off." Mother Ruan sneered.

Father Ruan felt that what she said was also reasonable, and it happened that he didn't want to stay in the same carriage with her any longer, so he let her get out of the carriage as soon as he arrived at the gate of the county seat.

A gray bird on the top of the carriage tilted its head, flapped its wings and flew up, circling in the sky.

In the letter, my daughter said that she didn’t want to go too far. It’s best to find a place to live in the county town. The county town is not too far from the village, but it’s not too close. People in the village will only go to the town if they need to buy things. In fact, going to the county is a waste of time, and the cost of riding a bullock cart will double, so ordinary people will naturally not go to the county unless there is something important to do.

But there are still some risks, and I don't care about it. It is not me who should be afraid of being discovered, but if my daughter is discovered, it is inevitable that the people in the village will not go crazy.

But the daughter would not propose to live here for no reason, maybe there is some reason that is inconvenient to tell herself, Ruan's mother weighed it over and over again and decided that if there is a suitable house in the county, she will accept her daughter.

Ruan's mother, who is busy with housework and farm work every day, came to Wangshui County for the first time. Wangshui County is the largest county town in this remote area.

Wangshui County is named after Wangshui River, which surrounds Wangshui County and faces Linshan Mountain far away. There is also a story about Wangshui River since ancient times. It is said that a long, long time ago, there was a young and beautiful girl. I met a young man by the Wangshui River. The two fell in love with each other at first sight, but one lived in the east of the river and the other lived in the west of the river. So they agreed to meet by the Wangshui river every day.

The friendship between the two grew stronger, and the boy promised the girl that he would come to her house to propose marriage in a few days, so the girl waited and waited until the parents at home wanted to arrange a marriage for her, but the boy didn't wait.

The girl then went to Wangshui River to look for the boy, but as the days passed, the boy did not show up again. The girl crossed the river with a boat and wanted to go to the other side of the river to find the boy, but when the boat reached the middle of the river, the boat capsized suddenly, and the girl Fell into the river and drowned, but the dead girl was not reincarnated because of her obsession, and her soul still lingered in the Wangshui River.

"When a young girl passes by by the river, the resentful soul that is unwilling to die will attach herself to her to find her lover." A girl about fifteen or sixteen years old by the river pulled her by her side and looked younger than herself. A few-year-old girl told the legend of Wangshuihe, and a look of fear appeared on the younger girl's face.

"Why don't you come and marry me? I hate it so much!" The older girl lowered her voice and slowed down her tone, speaking in that spooky tone, the younger girl screamed and backed away in fright. After a few steps, he accidentally bumped into a person.

"Be careful." Mother Ruan caught the girl who almost fell.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The older girl hurried up and apologized to Ruan's mother and sister.

"Sister scared you, don't be afraid!" The girl comforted her crying sister while apologizing to Ruan's mother, "I scared my sister so she bumped into you, I'm sorry, it's all my fault!"

"It's okay, be careful next time, don't scare your sister." Mother Ruan looked at the little girl who was still sobbing in her arms and said with a smile: "In the legend I heard, the girl who fell into the river didn't Harmful, the child should not cry."

"Really?" The little girl was a little skeptical when she heard Mother Ruan's explanation.

"it is true."

Receiving assurances from her sister and the strange aunt, the little girl wiped her tears and snorted at her sister: "My sister is a liar, I will never play with my sister again!"

After saying that, the little girl ran away without a trace.

"Oh." The girl sighed pretentiously.

Ruan's mother looked at the girl who was as old as her daughter, but even more eccentric than her daughter, and couldn't help laughing: "Go back and coax my sister, don't scare her in the future."

"I didn't scare her indiscriminately, auntie, you shouldn't be from this county, right?" The girl said to Ruan's mother in a mysteriously lowered voice, "A few days ago, the daughter of old Zhangtou, who sells tofu here, suddenly disappeared. After searching for two days, she couldn't find it, but yesterday morning she suddenly appeared on the bank of the river dripping wet for no reason. Everyone is saying that the daughter of old Zhangtou's family is the resentment of the girl he saw!"

"I also scared my sister so that she wouldn't run around by the river, oh, let's not talk about it, I have to go back and see her, auntie, I'm sorry today, next time we meet again I'll treat you to a sugar man! The lively girl waved her hand and chased after her sister in the direction where she left.

Mother Ruan watched the girl go away, looked down at the Wangshui River not far away, recalled the strange thing the girl said, and felt a little cold for no reason.

It should be... I think too much.

……

Father Ruan's carriage drove towards Wanyan Mountain as Yan Quan guessed. This is the shortest way back to Liu's Mansion, because the imperial court suppressed the bandits and hadn't come out for several months. Father Ruan didn't take this kind of luck divert.

Yan Quan and A Fei waited unhurriedly until Ruan's father approached Wanyan Mountain before leaving.

The bandits hadn't opened for several months, and their eyes were green from hunger. They were seized by Zaoquan and mingled in to provoke them. A few brave ones carried their boss on their backs and went down the mountain, intending to catch a fat sheep and beat them for a tooth sacrifice. .

Not far away, Father Ruan's carriage was gradually approaching.
