pastoral life

Xue Mingyu's life is getting worse and worse now. Although Wang Juren still let him live in the mansion, and the food and clothing expenses have not changed before the fellowship test, but the state of mind of eating and living here has undergone earth-shaking changes from before.He hadn't passed the township examination, his former classmate was already a candidate, but now he is still only a scholar. Even the villager Wang Mingchuan was lucky enough to pass the exam. How could Xue Mingyu fail the exam based on his talents?

The more he thought about it, the more he was wrong. In addition, after Xie Liu found out about buying a murderer earlier, he felt that Wang Mingchuan was coming to seek revenge, and Xue Jiaojiao's unborn child was not a Wang family. Whichever one is shaken out will be considered ruined in his life.

Being haunted by such fear all day long, Xue Mingyu can't even read books. His studies have been ruined, not to mention his whole spirit has also collapsed. Wang Juren approached him several times to talk to him, but he didn't see any effect, so he just ignored him. He didn't drive him out of the mansion because of his master-student relationship, but it was impossible for him to value him as much as he did in the early years.

Xue Mingyu noticed the change in Wang Juren's attitude, but he didn't think that it was because he was not motivated to make Wang Juren feel cold, but he felt guilty because Wang Juren knew about Xue Jiaojiao's matter or Thinking about the matter of Wang Mingchuan's family, he became more and more uneasy. He couldn't eat or sleep soundly all day long, and he lost weight rapidly, and the scars on his face were no longer covered with thick powder. This appearance looks like a ghost in the eyes of outsiders. The servants saw him detour, and when he went out, they ran into pedestrians and avoided them in disgust. So Xue Mingyu didn't want to go out again, and only locked himself in the door. Never contact outsiders when necessary.

Naturally, except for Xie Liu.

"Why are you here again, the janitor's eyes were eaten by dogs!"

Now that Xue Mingyu looked at Xie Liu, he was afraid. This person knew all the shady things about him, but he had nothing to do with him, so he could only let this person float in front of him like a deadly ghost, and finally forced him to retreat. There is no turning back until it is beyond redemption.

"You have become like this, if I don't come here, I won't see you someday, who can I go to?"

Xue Mingyu struggled to push Xie Liu out of the room, but after tossing for a long time, he couldn't do what he wanted, so he could only scream with the force of tearing his throat:

"Get lost! It's all because of you that I've ended up where I am now. It's all about you. If it wasn't for you, why would I be here!"

Facing Xue Mingyu Xie Liu, who was almost insane, he couldn't help but sneer. The resentment of being deceived and calculated back then has subsided a lot, but he can't see the slightest joy in his heart. Damn, he still feels a little distressed.

"What did I do to you? Did I cause you to fail the exam or did I teach you to do that shady thing? Xue Mingyu, your virtue should be shown by your husband to see if he is willing to continue to take you in. "

"What are you going to get from me before you are willing! I was sorry for you in that incident back then, but you should calm down after seeing me now. Why do you still want to force me? You really want to do it. Am I willing to die!"

Xie Liu opened his arms and forcefully pressed Xue Mingyu into his arms, no matter how much he struggled, he refused to let go. He just lowered his head and whispered in his ear:

"Would you like to marry me? I will treat you well in the future and won't be bullied again."

Xue Mingyu stiffened.

"What if I don't agree."

Xie Liu tightened his grip on the waist of the man in his arms, his face remained unchanged with a faint smile.

"Is there any reason why you haven't been caught by me now, do you really think... Am I asking what you mean and waiting for you to nod?"

The work on the barren slope is a long-term job, and Mingzhu's days of running on both sides will not be over for a while. Fortunately, the medicine prescribed by Jiang Cheng made him feel much better. Wang Mingchuan saw it in his eyes and was happy in his heart. He went to Jiangfu with his things and thanked Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yuan several times.

When Mingzhu was busy running around, there was a message from Tangpinzhai that he was willing to pay part of the money to help Mingzhu study the fruit trees on the barren slope, and agreed to share it if there was a high profit. It's impossible for Mingzhu to raise a [-]% interest at first, but the condition over there is half of the interest. On the face of Mingzhu, he hesitates and agrees with great reluctance, but in his heart he is so happy that he is almost in front of Tang Pin. Laugh out.

The branches of Tangpinzhai are all over the Central Plains, and their daily profits are soaring like crazy. Even if they only distribute dividends around the Pearl Jinzhou City, the profits cannot be underestimated.

rich.

Mingzhu remained in a state of "hehehe, hehehehehe" until she got home. Wang Mingchuan thought something was wrong when he saw it, and hurriedly dragged someone to find a doctor, but was slapped away by Mingzhu.

"I'm fine, Tangpinzhai has some clues."

Mingzhu talked to Wang Mingchuan about what happened today, and then resumed the state of "hehe, hehehehehe". The latter was also very happy to see this. With a tight budget, you have to watch everything by yourself. Now Tangpinzhai is willing to help, not to mention that at least the labor costs and early-stage technology investment are reasonable. In this way, Mingzhu doesn't have to spend as much energy as before. On the barren slope, people will naturally feel better after resting, and the medicine given by Jiang Cheng will probably be more effective.

Once the initial investment funds were confirmed, Mingzhu invested a lot of money in it. It's not that he really doesn't feel bad about spending other people's money. If the lemon cultivation is unsuccessful, the money will eventually have to be paid by them themselves. Make some eyebrows and have a bottom line in your heart.Now that you have Qian Mingzhu, you don’t need to spend money. You can buy enough things, and you have to go all the way to ask for the masters you need. This whole mess is more time-consuming than when you just ran across the mountain. Seeing this, Wang Mingchuan was very resentful.

If you have money, you can relax for a while... Sure enough, he is thinking too much.

The Wang family's life is prosperous, Wang Mingchuan's social circle is expanding day by day, and Mingzhu's men's lemon cultivation technology is also advancing day by day.Yeerba is still flowing from small workshops to Jinzhou City and the surrounding counties. The sour candy is sold out, and there is no hurry if Mingzhu can't produce new candy for a while. Pinzhai signed a one-year contract, and he didn't have to worry about cutting off communication with Tangpinzhai if there were no new products.

Only the sour sugar was missing, after all, there was a lack of income. Just as the corn harvested earlier had been dried and stored, Mingzhu began to toss the cornbake.In fact, the method is not very unusual, but the corn is ground into powder, mixed with flour, sugar, water and steamed on the corn husk. What you eat is the original taste. The corn has a strong aroma, not as restrained as a leaf rake. After steaming, you can smell the sweetness of corn from afar, and it is perfect for attracting customers. Therefore, as soon as this product was sent to Yunlaifang, it was immediately promoted to the surrounding area.

As the demand at Yunlaifang increased, the output naturally had to keep up. Therefore, Mingzhu expanded the scale of the small workshop again, from 30 to 50 workers. The workers who came in earlier would naturally have to increase their wages. Well, new recruits are still calculated on the basis of one or two taels of silver per month. This method of calculating wages based on seniority also makes those old workers willing to bring newcomers. Anyway, the more the boss earns, the more wages they will pay. Well, if the newcomers work quickly, they will also benefit in the future.

Just when Wang's life was getting smoother, an unexpected person came to the door. Mingzhu was rare that day and didn't go out. He happened to bump into someone knocking on the door. At first, he thought it was Wang Mingchuan who had come back. After trying to open the door, he saw Yang Wenhua standing outside.

"Brother Yang, come in quickly, why don't you wear thicker clothes in this cold weather."

Mingzhu hurriedly brought Yang Wenhua in, she didn't know how long Yang Wenhua had stood outside, her whole body was covered with air-conditioning, that's all, but she was still dressed very thinly, but she only wore a thin cotton coat in such a cold weather , the lips are so black from the cold that it is unbearable to look at them.

"Come and bake in front of the stove, come, put a blanket on."

Mingzhu found a thick blanket to wrap Yang Wenhua around, and handed him a hand stove. The two sat in front of the stove and talked. Even so, Yang Wenhua was still shivering from the cold, presumably because he had been exposed to the cold outside for too long. I can't slow down.

"Thank... thank you."

Yang Wenhua took the hot tea that Mingzhu handed over, and drank it in one gulp, only to feel a little hot in his stomach.

"What's the matter with you? You don't wear more when you go out. It's really cold, but what to do."

Mingzhu ordered Changgui to go down to the kitchen to make ginger soup, but she stayed in the room to talk with Yang Wenhua, but before she could understand, the person in front of her cried holding a teacup.

"What the hell happened?"

Mingzhu stared at Yang Wenhua and was clueless. Speaking of which, Yang Wenhua had no friendship with him, and he hadn't even met him a few times, but now this person came to the door and cried without thinking. Linglong couldn't think of the reason, not to mention that Xue Mingzhu was just an ordinary person.

Yang Wenhua just cried, Mingzhu couldn't ask anything, so she had to worry on the sidelines, wondering what to do, but Wang Mingchuan and Wang Qingquan waited for them.

"Why did they all come back, what kind of drama are they all singing today?"

Wang Mingchuan gave Mingzhu a helpless look, then looked back at Wang Qingquan, but Wang Qingquan had been staring at Yang Wenhua since he entered the room, and before Mingzhu could ask, he asked:

"Why are you here?"

Male wives are different from female wives who don't often come out to meet male guests, so it's not surprising that Wang Qingquan, who is also from Juren, knows Xie Liu's male wife. Are all of them crazy, or is he still in a dream and has not woken up?

"Xie Liu is arguing at Mr. Wang's house to marry Brother Xue. You are Xie Liu's wife, why would you go to another house to hide?"

Yang Wenhua shrank back, but cried even harder. Mingzhu saw her brain ache, and when she was about to persuade Yang Wenhua, she cried out:

"Xie Liu is going to divorce and I will marry another one. Before my father-in-law nods, the servants will kick me out with a stick!"
