The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad

"Come on, I'll invite everyone to have dinner at the Jujiu House." Tang Zhongbai stood beside the carriage and extended an invitation to Liu Qingyuan.

"Ah, didn't you say you wanted to go home and eat scallion oil noodles?" Liu Qingyuan was stunned. He was going to go home.

He hadn't been home for half a year, so he had to clean up his place for tonight, otherwise he would have nowhere to sleep.

"Hey, it's night. Let's go."

It was noon, the weather was clear, dry and cold. As the New Year was drawing to a close, the West Market was bustling with people, busy buying supplies and food for the New Year.

The fragrant aroma of rice wafted over the entire West Market, and Tang Si's stomach growled in response.

Tang Zhongbai brought his men to the tavern, and the four men drank and chatted in the private room on the second floor.

Liu Xuer brought the two of them to the guest room of her wing. Not far away, a waitress came in carrying a bowl of black medicine.

"Madam, please drink the medicine first."

Liu Xu frowned and said softly, "Put it down first and let it dry for a while before I drink it."

Jiang Muxia, who was sitting opposite her, could smell the bitter taste of the medicine. She frowned and asked her, "Are you not feeling well? Why are you drinking medicine?"

Mei Zhao tugged at her sleeve, signaling her not to ask any more questions.

Liu Xuer smiled bitterly, "There's nothing I can't say. The old lady saw that I had been silent, so she had someone prepare some medicine for me. She made it every day and watched me drink it. Today, you're here, so she can't say much."

"You've only been married for over a month, and they're already so impatient to torment you. This is ridiculous. The more pressure you have, the harder it is to get pregnant." She picked up the bowl and poured the medicine into the flowerpot beside her. "If you really have a problem with your body, come back to the county with me after the first month of the lunar year. My adoptive father is a miracle doctor. There is no disease that he can't cure."

Jiang Muxia called the maid who was guarding the door in and said, "Tell the old lady that the divine doctor Chu in Suanzao County is proficient in all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases. He can make the lady pregnant with just one dose of medicine. You don't need to boil medicine for her in the future."

The waitress looked at her and then at Liu Xuer, her face embarrassed.

"I'll ask my husband to talk to the old lady. You can go down now."

Liu Xuer smiled and said, "After a month, you still haven't made any movement. Mrs. Tang might be more aggressive than the one in my family."

"No, my mother already has grandchildren, so she doesn't have time to take care of me."

Liu Xuer and Mei Zhao smiled with ambiguous meanings.

In a blink of an eye, it is the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, the Little New Year.

The sky has been gloomy since yesterday evening, with howling winds at night.

When I opened the door in the morning, I found that it had started snowing in the middle of the night.

"Madam, I received news from Sister Qingyun yesterday. After Aunt Cui returned home, the old lady confined her to her room and sent people to guard her door. Tang Shuli couldn't get in at all. He took his anger out on Madam Liu, but because of Sister Qingyun's status, he didn't dare to move a finger. He was really angry and has been living in the study these days." Qinghong smiled with a relaxed look.

"What's even more satisfying is that Tang Yi is called by the old lady to be scolded every day, and every time he comes back, his face is gloomy."

"Madam, do you think Madam Liu will soon be able to make a name for herself?"

Jiang Muxia thought to himself that his success was not far away, but his death was not far away.

In this case, I'm afraid that Tang Rong and Aunt Cui's plan to harm people will be brought forward.

"Qinghong, send someone to tell Qingyun to stay close to Liu Qinghe. Refuse anyone who invites her out, especially Tang Rong. Don't show her any mercy and kick her out directly."

"But what if Sister Qingyun can't stop Madam Liu?"

Jiang Muxia's eyes sank. Yes, Liu Qinghe was used to being a coward at home. She would not dare to refuse the invitations of those who always took advantage of her. Qingyun was afraid that she could stop him once, but not many times.

"Then tell Jingyun not to leave Madam Liu's side."

"Yes."

Qinghong was depressed. Her wife was a bright and decisive person. She looked down on Liu Qinghe's cowardly appearance, so why did she try so hard to help her? What was she trying to achieve?

Besides, she is a distant aunt. Isn’t she afraid of people gossiping about her meddling in other people’s family affairs?

Little did she know that Jiang Muxia had already thought of divorcing Liu Qinghe, as that family was not worthy of her.

She had someone spread the news early on that Liu Qinghe was her savior. Now seeing that Liu Qinghe was living a miserable life, she was willing to put aside her own reputation and help her benefactor through the difficult times.

In this way, others will only say that she is a grateful person.

"Alas! Another nearly impossible task."

She tapped her fingers on the small table, wondering what Liu Qinghe's weakness was. Was there any way to make her agree to a divorce and take her three children away?

It’s difficult. She rubbed her eyebrows and felt a headache.

Tang Zhongbai walked in with a cold look on his face, followed by two maids carrying food boxes.

"Why did you mention the stove? This is..."

A small flame had already burned in the small red clay stove in Tang Zhongbai's hand, and he placed it on the small table on the couch under the window.

The old woman put the food box on the windowsill and stepped back. She smelled the aroma of meat wafting out.

"It's Sukiyaki." Jiang Muxia said happily and reached out to open the lid of the box.

There is a small pot on top of the food box, which contains the cooked soup base.

As soon as she smelled it, she knew it was the soup base made by Nanny Jiang.

"Qinghong, quickly follow the maids to the kitchen. Today the old lady is showing mercy and everyone has a place to eat. Tang San and Tang Si have already gone there and have reserved a good seat for you."

Jiang Muxia smiled and waved her hand, "Go quickly."

There were only two people left in the yard. Tang Zhongbai set the cups and plates, set up the pot, and filled it with wine.

"Come, have a drink. I wish you a good harvest in the coming year, and that the people will have enough food and clothing."

Bang, two glasses clinked together. The fire in the room was burning brightly, and he felt hot all over, so he opened the window.

The wind blew in with the snow, and the air was mixed with the refreshing scent of plum blossoms and the faint aroma of Sukiyaki.

Snowflakes fell on her forehead, and Tang Zhongbai smiled and reached out to wipe them off for her. As soon as he touched her, the snowflakes melted and turned into water droplets that stuck to his fingertips.

"Having a wife like this, what can a husband ask for?"

Jiang Muxia laughed at him for being pretentious. Seeing his face turn red after drinking a glass of wine, she put the wine away.

"I'm drunk before I even drink."

"There's nothing to be found. It's as clean as a blank sheet of paper."

She understood what he meant. It was that the spies hidden in the other two rooms could not find any clues at all.

"It's okay. Maybe we're overthinking it. Maybe they've seen the situation clearly and stopped thinking about it."

Tang Zhongbai was not as optimistic as she was. He recalled the meaningful words Yin Yusheng left when he last saw him.

"I hope you can take her to a quiet place and live the rest of her life in peace and never return to the capital."

He didn't understand at the time, but when Jiang Muxia told him her guess, he suddenly understood that Yin Yusheng really knew something. But why didn't he say it? Now he can't be found anymore, where did he go?

He used various means to search the servants of the two rooms thoroughly, but found nothing.

He felt even more uneasy, fearing that she would worry, so he would adjust his mood outside the mansion before returning every time.

Jiang Muxia raised her eyes slightly. She was sensitive and had seen through him long ago.

If he didn't say anything, she wouldn't ask. She would think of some way to help him.

Tang Zhongbai was still drunk and fell into a deep sleep until the evening.

Tang San called Qinghong out from the corridor and said something to her, and Qinghong went back to the house to report.

"Madam, there is a girl outside the mansion looking for you. She said she has something important to see you about."

She doesn't know many people in the capital, and it's impossible for Mei Zhao and Liu Xuer to look for her if they have important matters, so who could this little girl be?

She put on a thick cloak and walked quickly towards the gate of the mansion in the heavy snow.
