There is space for the married man
Chapter 46
Li Le came over on time to fetch the medicine Wen Lang boiled for Ding Qiao, and walked quickly when he left.
"Isn't that Li Le? Why is he running so fast?" Song Lingwan asked suspiciously when she saw Li Le's back.
"He's rushing to deliver medicine to Ding Qiao." Wen Lang explained.
The whole village knew about Ding Qiao's dystocia, and Song Lingwan naturally knew about it too, but it was not as detailed as Li Le's.
"I said what kind of medicine are you brewing here? That child Ding Qiao is also pitiful." Song Lingwan was kind-hearted and supported Wen Lang's approach.
Wen Lang didn't talk to her about Ding Qiao's affairs. He only asked her to help make some medicine for the past two days. If you catch it, it may be effective. Li Le is an unmarried brother, and it is not convenient to make this kind of medicine.
After hearing this, Song Lingwan immediately agreed, "I don't think Ding Qiao is a few years older than you, so it's a little bit of help."
During dinner, You Jingshu told about meeting Liu Fengze and his brother. You Mingyuan was a little surprised, and immediately exchanged a look with You Jingshu, and said nonchalantly, "That's really a coincidence."
You Jingyue said with a smile all over his face: "Yes, General Liu still looks so brave and powerful."
Song Lingwan smiled and said, "You have worshiped General Liu since you were a child. If you hadn't been born a little late, you might have followed him."
You Jingyue blushed and said, "Mother, I also admire the King of Zhennan, okay? I also admire General Zhang's family. They are all good men who protect their families and the country. If you hadn't made me into a brother, I would have died a long time ago." He went to join the army."
"Yes, yes, since I was a child, I like to run around. I don't look like a brother at all." Although Song Lingwan said so, she still had a smile on her face. She said this to make fun of You Jingyue.
You Jingyue was not interested in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, or embroidery since he was a child. He liked to go out to play with his brother, and You Jingshu was willing to take him with him most of the time, so almost all of You Jingshu's classmates were familiar with You Jingyue, precisely because they were too familiar with him. No, there is no one who is interested in You Jingyue.
After dinner, You Mingyuan and You Jingshu went to the study and talked until late at night before returning to their room.
Wen Lang had just finished reading the ledger, and the candlelight shone on his immature face, but his brows and eyes were mature and stable.
Standing at the door, You Jingshu was lost in thought, this kind of Wen Lang seemed to be a mature soul put into an immature body.
But then he shook his head to dismiss the ridiculous thought.
The two haven't seen each other for some days, let alone lie down together.
At first, Wen Lang felt a little embarrassed for a long time, even when he lay next to You Jingshu hugging the pillow for the first time, he didn't feel this way.
Probably because he sensed Wen Lang's discomfort, You Jingshu moved his body away. His subtle movement suddenly made Wen Lang feel unspeakably uncomfortable.
"The Liu family and the Zhang family followed the Emperor Taizu to fight in the north and south, and conquered the country. Later, when the southern border war broke out, the Liu family took the initiative to ask Ying to pacify the southern border. Since then, they have guarded the southern border and won the title of King of Zhennan."
"The Zhang family is different from the Liu family. Although the Zhang family holds the same military power as the Liu family, but the Zhang family is the third prince's family. In recent years, the north has been stable, and King Zhenbei took the initiative to hand over the military power. Your Majesty, Longxin, rewarded the Zhang family with great joy. A lot of good things, and even the third prince has become more and more important."
Speaking of this, You Jingshu frowned, and said: "This time Liu Fengze brought Liu Fengzhi back to Pingcheng, I am afraid that His Majesty can no longer tolerate the Liu family. In the past few years, His Majesty's health has been deteriorating, and his mind has become more and more unpredictable. When he was demoted, he said that he was the first, but he won't be the last. The Liu family is in danger."
Hearing You Jingshu's words, Wen Lang's thoughts were gradually brought to the business, and he didn't think about anything else.
"You mean, the emperor suspects that the Liu family wants to rebel?" Wen Lang turned around, turned to You Jingshu, and lowered his voice.
You Jingshu didn't speak, just nodded slightly and lowered his eyes.
Wen Lang took a breath, "Could it be that your family did the same?"
"En." You Jingshu replied dully, his eyes dim.
At this time, Wen Lang really felt that he was in a feudal dynasty, and the emperor was not happy, saying that if he wanted your head, he would have your head.
"Liu Fengzhi should be kept by His Majesty." You Jingshu talked with his father about this issue tonight, and kept Liu Fengzhi as a hostage in Pingcheng, so that the emperor could feel relieved, but this is not a perfect solution, and this is not a consolation. Knowing how long it could last, the emperor became more and more suspicious. If one day he thought that Liu Fengzhi would not be able to stop the Liu family from rebelling, then Liu Fengzhi would be in danger.
When Wen Lang heard his words, he quickly figured out the joints involved, and his heart tightened. This Da'an Dynasty seemed calm, but in fact it was undercurrent.
Hearing from You Jingshu that the emperor's health was deteriorating, it also meant that the people staring at the imperial chair started to act.
But Youjia are just ordinary people now, and those temple affairs have nothing to do with them. Wen Lang just wants to do business well, and doesn't want to have a relationship with the imperial court. They prefer to live in peace and live in peace.
"Don't think too much, this fire won't reach us." Seeing You Jingshu's brows were tightly frowned, Wen Lang couldn't help raising his hand to pat his arm, comforting him.
The warmth of his palm brought You Jingshu back to his senses, and his eyes gradually softened.
This fire really can't burn them, I just hope that the replacement of the throne will not affect the people of Liming.
The crown prince is diligent, studious, and strict with himself. Even if he fails to become the Mingjun of the prosperous age, he will not make a big mistake. If he succeeds in ascension to the throne, You Jingshu and his son are not too worried. , I am afraid that the world will be chaotic.
The eldest prince is arrogant by nature, domineering and arrogant, and his maternal grandfather is Xu Shangshu, a high-ranking and powerful person in the court. If the eldest prince ascends the throne, he is afraid that his relatives will intervene in politics and the power will fall to the side. Maybe this country will have to change its name and surname .
You Jingshu can only hope that the prince and his party will not go on business trips.
"Yeah." You Jingshu didn't want to tell Wen Lang these complicated things, and let him worry with him, so he raised his hand and put it on the back of Wen Lang's hand, his eyes deep.
You Jingshu's sudden movement made Wen Lang's heart beat faster, his face became hot, and he withdrew his hand.
"Go to bed early, you have to get up early tomorrow." Wen Lang turned over as if nothing had happened, and closed his eyes with his back to You Jingshu.
The movement of Wen Lang pulling his hand woke You Jingshu up, making him realize that Wen Lang was really avoiding him.
He half-closed his eyes, looked at the back of Wen Lang's head and said, "Wen Lang, I don't know why you avoid me and why you reject me so decisively, but I still want to tell you that I like you."
You Jingshu was silent for a moment, Wen Lang didn't make a sound or move, as if he had fallen asleep, he sighed, raised his hand to gently rub Wen Lang's black hair, and said, "Good night."
It wasn't until You Jingshu's even breathing sounded that Wen Lang opened his eyes. His fists were tightly clenched, and the ink clouds in his eyes changed.
He really didn't expect You Jingshu to confess to him so suddenly. Suddenly, his heart almost jumped out of his throat. He didn't dare to move or make a sound, and even held his breath.
The words "I am happy with you" are really touching, and for a second, Wen Lang wanted to turn around and hug You Jingshu, telling him that he was too.
But he held back that urge. Anyway, he lived 25 years in his last life, and 17 years in this life. He is an adult, and he can no longer do things as he pleases, without thinking about anything.
In his last life, he had outstanding looks and an extraordinary family background. There were countless people who pursued him, but Wen Lang didn't have any special feelings. Those who liked him were either because of his family background or because of his appearance. No one really understood him. What kind of person is he.
He is inferior and cowardly, paranoid and insecure.
If the love for him is not [-]%, then he would rather not have it. He decided that it would be a lifetime.
He did like You Jingshu, but he didn't like You Jingshu enough to lose his reason for You Jingshu. In this relationship, Wen Lang's reason always prevailed.
The two of them tacitly did not talk about it, as if nothing had happened.
With the help of Wen Lang's decoction, Ding Qiao's health improved day by day. Seeing that Ding Qiao's health improved, his mother-in-law started asking him to do laundry and cook, regardless of whether he was still in confinement or not.
Ding Qiao changed from being obedient in the past, and lay down on the bed without moving.
Seeing this, his mother-in-law yelled and called him a slob, and asked her son to teach him a lesson. Don't think that giving birth to a son for the Li family would be enough to challenge her.
Ding Qiao's husband was sandwiched between his mother and husband, one head and two older. Today is also strange. No matter what his mother said, Ding Qiao didn't move.
"If your husband doesn't wash that bucket of clothes today, he won't even think about eating!"
Ding Qiao's mother-in-law slammed the door loudly.
"Fulang, what are you fighting with your mother? I think your body has almost recovered. It's just a few clothes, which can't hinder anything. Why make her so angry." The boss of the Li family is used to his Fu Lang worked like a cow and a horse, even when he was pregnant, he was still working in the fields, and he didn't think there was any problem with letting a brother who was still in confinement to wash clothes.
Ding Qiao had already given up on his husband, and now listening to him say these words confidently, his heart was completely cold. After so many years, why did he think that his husband was good to him, just because the other party would stay if he had meat to eat? Give half of it to yourself, and after you earn money and hand it over to your mother, will you secretly give it to yourself?
"If you want to wash it, go wash it." Ding Qiaomu turned over with a sullen face.
Seeing this, the boss of the Li family had no choice but to wash the clothes by himself.
When his mother saw it, she scolded Ding Qiao again, scolding Ding Qiao for being too lazy to do anything, for giving birth to a son, she thought she was rich, and there were chickens that could lay eggs everywhere, not missing him, and the neighbors could hear her scolding.
Li Le came to the door at this time. He stood at the door in embarrassment, and Li Ye stood next to him. Li Ye also felt that his future husband would blush when he heard his mother scolding his sister-in-law.
A few days later, Ding Qiao's body recovered completely, and the first thing he did was to reconcile with the boss of the Li family. The entire Linxi Village was shocked.
Even Li Zheng rushed to Li's house, and a large group of people talked to each other to persuade Ding Qiao not to do stupid things.
As for the boss of the Li family, he was completely confused. What did he do wrong?Why did Ding Qiao reconcile with him?
Ding Qiao sat in the main room with a cold face, still looking thin and thin. He had an ordinary appearance and was thin. He had been drinking medicine recently, and his complexion was much ruddy.
"Thank you for your kindness, there is no need to persuade me, I have made up my mind, I want to make peace with Li Cheng."
This incident made a big fuss, and Li Cheng's mother kept cursing Ding Qiao's white-eyed wolf all the time, showing shame.
Ding Qiao let her scold, sitting there and turning a deaf ear.
After a long time, Li Cheng finally recovered from the shock. He stammered and asked Ding Qiao incredulously, "Why...why? Aren't we living well? We just had a son again, and the good times have just begun, you Why are you reconciling with me?"
Ding Qiao stared at him with dark eyes, making Li Cheng's heart tremble.
"It's just that you think that I'm not doing well, not at all. I almost died. You can't even pay for the medicine except sighing in my ear. You just watched me die that night. I heard it."
"Your mother told you to save the money for the medicine and marry another girl. You didn't say a word. Li Cheng, are you moved? But your little conscience pulled you back and didn't say yes, so you acquiesced, let me let you go. Your mother tortured me and watched me die by default, so that I can marry a girl for you after I die."
Ding Qiao said with a cold face: "We have been married for so many years, and it took me a trip to the gate of hell to see clearly what kind of person my husband is."
"But that's enough. I don't have a second life to waste with your family. If you still have a conscience, let me go."
His words, like a bolt from the blue, made Li Cheng stunned. He looked at Ding Qiao in panic, with guilty conscience written all over his eyes.
Everyone saw Li Cheng's reaction and whispered in surprise.
"I really can't tell, Li Cheng is usually so honest, but he has so many tricks."
"Bah! His husband worked so hard to bear children for him, and he actually watched his husband go to die."
"At first I thought it was Ding Qiao who was just looking for trouble, but it turned out that her husband's family was too vicious."
"I still want to marry a girl to Li Cheng. Just dream about it. Who would dare to marry such a family? Be careful, she will kill the donkey."
In the end, Ding Qiao and Li Cheng reconciled, but the Li family would never leave the child to Ding Qiao. He was the eldest grandson of their family, so how could Ding Qiao be taken away by an outsider.
However, Ding Qiao didn't have any hope of taking the child away from the beginning, so the result is quite satisfactory.
When the two came out of the yamen, Li Cheng kept his head down, looking very depressed. Seeing that Ding Qiao was about to leave, Li Cheng called him, "Ding Qiao, I'm sorry."
Ding Qiao would no longer have emotional ups and downs because of any of his words, he gave Li Cheng a cold look, and said, "Be good to the baby, I can't take him away, you are his own father, and his only support. "
Li Cheng kept nodding his head, and tears kept streaming down his face. Why did this happen? He was just fascinated by ghosts for a while, and he let his little home be ruined.
Ding Qiao ignored his tears and walked straight forward with the burden on his back.
When there was no one he knew around, Ding Qiao found a big tree and sat under it, tears streaming out of his eyes.
That was the child he gave birth to with all his might. He didn't love him, but he knew he couldn't take him away, and the Li family was willing to let him go. It was because he took advantage of Li Cheng's guilt.
He chose freedom, but he is also sorry for his children, he has no way to achieve the best of both worlds.
It's better for a child to follow Li Cheng, than to live with himself and grow up with no fixed place and be pointed at by others.
"Do you want to buy anything else?" You Jingyue looked at the things in her arms, and she should have bought all of them.
Wen Lang made the calculations, there should be nothing else, "No more, let's go back to the store."
You Jingyue nodded, and suddenly saw a familiar figure sitting under a big tree by the river, "Brother Lang, it seems to be Ding Qiao!"
Hearing this, Wen Lang turned his head and saw that it was really Ding Qiao. He was sitting under the big tree, his eyes were red from crying, looking so pitiful.
"I heard from Aunt Yu that Ding Qiao and Dalang from the Li family are making peace, so it looks like it should be today." You Jingyue tilted her head and recalled what Yu Sanniang said.
"I'll go over and have a look." Wen Lang actually admired Ding Qiao a little bit, he had the courage to reconcile and leave as soon as he said it.
In the Da'an Dynasty, many people would not dare to propose reconciliation even if they were bullied to death in the back house. What's more, Ding Qiao had just given birth to a child. Everything and nothing.
Seeing this, You Jingyue hurriedly followed. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for Ding Qiao to go up to Wen Lang in this situation?
Sure enough, the moment Ding Qiao looked up and saw Wen Lang, his expression froze.
Immediately after he reacted, he wiped away the tears on his face, patted the wrinkles on his clothes, stood up, and said with some embarrassment: "Brother Lang, I heard from Li Le, thank you for your medicine, otherwise I would Life is gone."
"It's a little effort, don't take it to heart." Wen Lang saw that although he was crying hard, his complexion was much better, and he looked healthier than before when he was thin and malnourished.
"No, no, this may be nothing to you, but it is a life-saving grace to me. I will repay you even if I am a cow or a horse, and I will return the medicine money to you as soon as possible." Wen Lang Buying medicine for him, and asking Li Le to deliver it to him to drink, is kind-hearted, and he can't just take advantage of Wen Lang just because of his kindness.
Wen Lang tilted his head slightly, and looked at Ding Qiao. This man knows how to repay his kindness and has a good character.
"You just came out of the yamen?" Wen Lang glanced at his baggage.
Ding Qiao embraced the burden, nodded, "Yes."
"Is there somewhere to go?" Wen Lang asked.
Ding Qiao was stunned for a moment, really not, he pursed his lips in embarrassment, Wen Lang knew from his expression that he had nowhere to go.
"My new shop is about to open, and I'm short of manpower. Would you like to come? Food and lodging included, four days off every month, two taels of silver a month, and rewards for a good job will be calculated separately."
Hearing Wen Lang's words, Ding Qiao's eyes widened. Hearing such a good treatment made one's heart flutter, but rationality still made Ding Qiao suppress his excitement. He is a brother who just got married. Wen Lang's helper in the shop will definitely hurt the reputation of Wen Lang's shop.
Wen Lang saved his life, how could he avenge his kindness.
"Brother Lang, thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary, it's inconvenient."
"It's not inconvenient. I use people to judge their character but not their background, and I don't ask where a hero comes from. Although I can't do this, as long as I don't commit crimes and commit crimes, I am willing to use anyone." Wen Wen Lang could see Ding Qiao's concerns at a glance, but these concerns were nothing to Wen Lang.
This is not Linxi Village, few people know Ding Qiao, who knows what happened to Ding Qiao, not to mention that Ding Qiao just reconciled with Li Cheng, not doing anything shameful, and Ding Qiao is still a victim, It is the Li family who should be ashamed, not Ding Qiao.
"Jingyue, take your brother Ding Qiao back to see our staff dormitory." Seeing Ding Qiao's hesitation, Wen Lang asked You Jingyue to drag him away.
Ding Qiao panicked, "Brother Lang, I really can't do it."
"There's nothing you can't do. You said that your life was saved by me. The only requirement I have for you now is to be worthy of the life I saved. What other people say doesn't count, only what you say will matter." Forget it, what kind of person you are and what kind of person you want to be is up to you to decide." Wen Lang walked in front, his voice was not loud, but it was enough to deafen Ding Qiao's ears.
Ding Qiao settled down in Wen Lang's new store. He was the first employee in Wen Lang's new store. After getting along with him for a few days, Wen Lang found that Ding Qiao looked thin, but in fact he had great strength and good physical strength. He is fine.
"I have helped the family with the work since I was a child. I have been doing all the work of chopping firewood, carrying water and planting the land. I have been used to it for so many years." Ding Qiao felt a little embarrassed. The brothers of other people's families are all so delicate that they are loved by their husbands. But he was strong and rough like a man.
When Wen Lang heard this, he clapped his hands, "It's amazing. Even if you get lost in the mountains, you can survive for a while with this survivability."
"Brother Lang, I can do it too." You Jingyue said unconvinced.
"Forget it, you haven't recognized the vegetables in our vegetable patch until now." Wen Lang shrugged helplessly.
You Jingyue blushed, "Brother Lang, you're going too far, you even exposed my faults, I just don't know each other well, I'll get to know you after a while."
Li Le and Fang Liuer laughed out loud when they heard this, and even Ding Qiao couldn't help being infected by the atmosphere and smiled.
It was the first time someone praised him for being great, instead of dismissing him as vulgar.
Wen Lang taught Ding Qiao how to grill the barbecue. Don't look at the grill and just stand there, sprinkling condiments. The work hardly stopped.
The taste of barbecue was developed by Wen Lang after several experiments. Ding Qiao has been in and out of the kitchen since he was a child. He was called to cook when he was not as tall as the stove. Although he had never seen barbecue before, Wen Lang taught him It's done, it's very quick to get started, and the grilled barbecue is more delicious every time.
As tasters, Wen Lang and the others ate very satisfied, patted their swollen stomachs, and gave Ding Qiao a thumbs up.
Then a tragedy happened to the few of them. They got angry after eating too much barbecue, You Jingyue had a nosebleed in the middle of the night, and Wen Lang ran to the toilet several times.
Fang Liuer and Li Le even had several pimples and sighed in the mirror from time to time.
Wen Lang hurriedly brewed a large pot of chrysanthemum tea for everyone to clear away heat and detoxify. He poured out a cup to drink whenever he had time, and finally returned to normal four days later.
"This barbecue is delicious, but it's easy to get angry." Fang Liuer sighed.
"It's too much to go too far, we still have to exercise restraint." Wen Lang said.
Several people nodded.
"I'm going out for a while." Wen Lang stretched, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the store, he went out for a stroll.
As soon as he left on his front foot, the willow wind switch came on his back foot, and he ordered a table full of food by himself. You Jingyue brought the food up, and subconsciously looked at him twice more, could he finish eating so much?
But when he saw Liu Fengzhi's gaze, the falcon-like eyes made You Jingyue's heart tremble, but his face was tense, and he stared back.
For some reason, Liu Fengchi felt that You Jingyue looked a bit like a vicious little fox, with a red leather skin.
"Your floating skills are too poor." Liu Fengjiao said suddenly.
You Jingyue's eyes widened when she heard the words, how could Liu Fengchi know?
He paused, looked Liu Fengzhu up and down, he was tall and tall, very similar to the black shadow that night.
"You were the master who played around next to me that night?!" You Jingyue said in surprise.
Compared to You Jingyue's astonishment, Liu Fengzhi nodded with a calm face, quite superior, "Yes."
How could it be such a coincidence? !
You Jingyue looked at Liu Fengzhu in a daze, and suddenly felt a wave of emotion in her heart, "Well... can I teach you some skills next time?"
"Isn't that Li Le? Why is he running so fast?" Song Lingwan asked suspiciously when she saw Li Le's back.
"He's rushing to deliver medicine to Ding Qiao." Wen Lang explained.
The whole village knew about Ding Qiao's dystocia, and Song Lingwan naturally knew about it too, but it was not as detailed as Li Le's.
"I said what kind of medicine are you brewing here? That child Ding Qiao is also pitiful." Song Lingwan was kind-hearted and supported Wen Lang's approach.
Wen Lang didn't talk to her about Ding Qiao's affairs. He only asked her to help make some medicine for the past two days. If you catch it, it may be effective. Li Le is an unmarried brother, and it is not convenient to make this kind of medicine.
After hearing this, Song Lingwan immediately agreed, "I don't think Ding Qiao is a few years older than you, so it's a little bit of help."
During dinner, You Jingshu told about meeting Liu Fengze and his brother. You Mingyuan was a little surprised, and immediately exchanged a look with You Jingshu, and said nonchalantly, "That's really a coincidence."
You Jingyue said with a smile all over his face: "Yes, General Liu still looks so brave and powerful."
Song Lingwan smiled and said, "You have worshiped General Liu since you were a child. If you hadn't been born a little late, you might have followed him."
You Jingyue blushed and said, "Mother, I also admire the King of Zhennan, okay? I also admire General Zhang's family. They are all good men who protect their families and the country. If you hadn't made me into a brother, I would have died a long time ago." He went to join the army."
"Yes, yes, since I was a child, I like to run around. I don't look like a brother at all." Although Song Lingwan said so, she still had a smile on her face. She said this to make fun of You Jingyue.
You Jingyue was not interested in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, or embroidery since he was a child. He liked to go out to play with his brother, and You Jingshu was willing to take him with him most of the time, so almost all of You Jingshu's classmates were familiar with You Jingyue, precisely because they were too familiar with him. No, there is no one who is interested in You Jingyue.
After dinner, You Mingyuan and You Jingshu went to the study and talked until late at night before returning to their room.
Wen Lang had just finished reading the ledger, and the candlelight shone on his immature face, but his brows and eyes were mature and stable.
Standing at the door, You Jingshu was lost in thought, this kind of Wen Lang seemed to be a mature soul put into an immature body.
But then he shook his head to dismiss the ridiculous thought.

But he held back that urge. Anyway, he lived 25 years in his last life, and 17 years in this life. He is an adult, and he can no longer do things as he pleases, without thinking about anything.
In his last life, he had outstanding looks and an extraordinary family background. There were countless people who pursued him, but Wen Lang didn't have any special feelings. Those who liked him were either because of his family background or because of his appearance. No one really understood him. What kind of person is he.
He is inferior and cowardly, paranoid and insecure.
If the love for him is not [-]%, then he would rather not have it. He decided that it would be a lifetime.
He did like You Jingshu, but he didn't like You Jingshu enough to lose his reason for You Jingshu. In this relationship, Wen Lang's reason always prevailed.
The two of them tacitly did not talk about it, as if nothing had happened.
With the help of Wen Lang's decoction, Ding Qiao's health improved day by day. Seeing that Ding Qiao's health improved, his mother-in-law started asking him to do laundry and cook, regardless of whether he was still in confinement or not.
Ding Qiao changed from being obedient in the past, and lay down on the bed without moving.
Seeing this, his mother-in-law yelled and called him a slob, and asked her son to teach him a lesson. Don't think that giving birth to a son for the Li family would be enough to challenge her.
Ding Qiao's husband was sandwiched between his mother and husband, one head and two older. Today is also strange. No matter what his mother said, Ding Qiao didn't move.
"If your husband doesn't wash that bucket of clothes today, he won't even think about eating!"
Ding Qiao's mother-in-law slammed the door loudly.
"Fulang, what are you fighting with your mother? I think your body has almost recovered. It's just a few clothes, which can't hinder anything. Why make her so angry." The boss of the Li family is used to his Fu Lang worked like a cow and a horse, even when he was pregnant, he was still working in the fields, and he didn't think there was any problem with letting a brother who was still in confinement to wash clothes.
Ding Qiao had already given up on his husband, and now listening to him say these words confidently, his heart was completely cold. After so many years, why did he think that his husband was good to him, just because the other party would stay if he had meat to eat? Give half of it to yourself, and after you earn money and hand it over to your mother, will you secretly give it to yourself?
"If you want to wash it, go wash it." Ding Qiaomu turned over with a sullen face.
Seeing this, the boss of the Li family had no choice but to wash the clothes by himself.
When his mother saw it, she scolded Ding Qiao again, scolding Ding Qiao for being too lazy to do anything, for giving birth to a son, she thought she was rich, and there were chickens that could lay eggs everywhere, not missing him, and the neighbors could hear her scolding.
Li Le came to the door at this time. He stood at the door in embarrassment, and Li Ye stood next to him. Li Ye also felt that his future husband would blush when he heard his mother scolding his sister-in-law.
A few days later, Ding Qiao's body recovered completely, and the first thing he did was to reconcile with the boss of the Li family. The entire Linxi Village was shocked.
Even Li Zheng rushed to Li's house, and a large group of people talked to each other to persuade Ding Qiao not to do stupid things.
As for the boss of the Li family, he was completely confused. What did he do wrong?Why did Ding Qiao reconcile with him?
Ding Qiao sat in the main room with a cold face, still looking thin and thin. He had an ordinary appearance and was thin. He had been drinking medicine recently, and his complexion was much ruddy.
"Thank you for your kindness, there is no need to persuade me, I have made up my mind, I want to make peace with Li Cheng."
This incident made a big fuss, and Li Cheng's mother kept cursing Ding Qiao's white-eyed wolf all the time, showing shame.
Ding Qiao let her scold, sitting there and turning a deaf ear.
After a long time, Li Cheng finally recovered from the shock. He stammered and asked Ding Qiao incredulously, "Why...why? Aren't we living well? We just had a son again, and the good times have just begun, you Why are you reconciling with me?"
Ding Qiao stared at him with dark eyes, making Li Cheng's heart tremble.
"It's just that you think that I'm not doing well, not at all. I almost died. You can't even pay for the medicine except sighing in my ear. You just watched me die that night. I heard it."
"Your mother told you to save the money for the medicine and marry another girl. You didn't say a word. Li Cheng, are you moved? But your little conscience pulled you back and didn't say yes, so you acquiesced, let me let you go. Your mother tortured me and watched me die by default, so that I can marry a girl for you after I die."
Ding Qiao said with a cold face: "We have been married for so many years, and it took me a trip to the gate of hell to see clearly what kind of person my husband is."
"But that's enough. I don't have a second life to waste with your family. If you still have a conscience, let me go."
His words, like a bolt from the blue, made Li Cheng stunned. He looked at Ding Qiao in panic, with guilty conscience written all over his eyes.
Everyone saw Li Cheng's reaction and whispered in surprise.
"I really can't tell, Li Cheng is usually so honest, but he has so many tricks."
"Bah! His husband worked so hard to bear children for him, and he actually watched his husband go to die."
"At first I thought it was Ding Qiao who was just looking for trouble, but it turned out that her husband's family was too vicious."
"I still want to marry a girl to Li Cheng. Just dream about it. Who would dare to marry such a family? Be careful, she will kill the donkey."
In the end, Ding Qiao and Li Cheng reconciled, but the Li family would never leave the child to Ding Qiao. He was the eldest grandson of their family, so how could Ding Qiao be taken away by an outsider.
However, Ding Qiao didn't have any hope of taking the child away from the beginning, so the result is quite satisfactory.
When the two came out of the yamen, Li Cheng kept his head down, looking very depressed. Seeing that Ding Qiao was about to leave, Li Cheng called him, "Ding Qiao, I'm sorry."
Ding Qiao would no longer have emotional ups and downs because of any of his words, he gave Li Cheng a cold look, and said, "Be good to the baby, I can't take him away, you are his own father, and his only support. "
Li Cheng kept nodding his head, and tears kept streaming down his face. Why did this happen? He was just fascinated by ghosts for a while, and he let his little home be ruined.
Ding Qiao ignored his tears and walked straight forward with the burden on his back.
When there was no one he knew around, Ding Qiao found a big tree and sat under it, tears streaming out of his eyes.
That was the child he gave birth to with all his might. He didn't love him, but he knew he couldn't take him away, and the Li family was willing to let him go. It was because he took advantage of Li Cheng's guilt.
He chose freedom, but he is also sorry for his children, he has no way to achieve the best of both worlds.
It's better for a child to follow Li Cheng, than to live with himself and grow up with no fixed place and be pointed at by others.
"Do you want to buy anything else?" You Jingyue looked at the things in her arms, and she should have bought all of them.
Wen Lang made the calculations, there should be nothing else, "No more, let's go back to the store."
You Jingyue nodded, and suddenly saw a familiar figure sitting under a big tree by the river, "Brother Lang, it seems to be Ding Qiao!"
Hearing this, Wen Lang turned his head and saw that it was really Ding Qiao. He was sitting under the big tree, his eyes were red from crying, looking so pitiful.
"I heard from Aunt Yu that Ding Qiao and Dalang from the Li family are making peace, so it looks like it should be today." You Jingyue tilted her head and recalled what Yu Sanniang said.
"I'll go over and have a look." Wen Lang actually admired Ding Qiao a little bit, he had the courage to reconcile and leave as soon as he said it.
In the Da'an Dynasty, many people would not dare to propose reconciliation even if they were bullied to death in the back house. What's more, Ding Qiao had just given birth to a child. Everything and nothing.
Seeing this, You Jingyue hurriedly followed. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for Ding Qiao to go up to Wen Lang in this situation?
Sure enough, the moment Ding Qiao looked up and saw Wen Lang, his expression froze.
Immediately after he reacted, he wiped away the tears on his face, patted the wrinkles on his clothes, stood up, and said with some embarrassment: "Brother Lang, I heard from Li Le, thank you for your medicine, otherwise I would Life is gone."
"It's a little effort, don't take it to heart." Wen Lang saw that although he was crying hard, his complexion was much better, and he looked healthier than before when he was thin and malnourished.
"No, no, this may be nothing to you, but it is a life-saving grace to me. I will repay you even if I am a cow or a horse, and I will return the medicine money to you as soon as possible." Wen Lang Buying medicine for him, and asking Li Le to deliver it to him to drink, is kind-hearted, and he can't just take advantage of Wen Lang just because of his kindness.
Wen Lang tilted his head slightly, and looked at Ding Qiao. This man knows how to repay his kindness and has a good character.
"You just came out of the yamen?" Wen Lang glanced at his baggage.
Ding Qiao embraced the burden, nodded, "Yes."
"Is there somewhere to go?" Wen Lang asked.
Ding Qiao was stunned for a moment, really not, he pursed his lips in embarrassment, Wen Lang knew from his expression that he had nowhere to go.
"My new shop is about to open, and I'm short of manpower. Would you like to come? Food and lodging included, four days off every month, two taels of silver a month, and rewards for a good job will be calculated separately."
Hearing Wen Lang's words, Ding Qiao's eyes widened. Hearing such a good treatment made one's heart flutter, but rationality still made Ding Qiao suppress his excitement. He is a brother who just got married. Wen Lang's helper in the shop will definitely hurt the reputation of Wen Lang's shop.
Wen Lang saved his life, how could he avenge his kindness.
"Brother Lang, thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary, it's inconvenient."
"It's not inconvenient. I use people to judge their character but not their background, and I don't ask where a hero comes from. Although I can't do this, as long as I don't commit crimes and commit crimes, I am willing to use anyone." Wen Wen Lang could see Ding Qiao's concerns at a glance, but these concerns were nothing to Wen Lang.
This is not Linxi Village, few people know Ding Qiao, who knows what happened to Ding Qiao, not to mention that Ding Qiao just reconciled with Li Cheng, not doing anything shameful, and Ding Qiao is still a victim, It is the Li family who should be ashamed, not Ding Qiao.
"Jingyue, take your brother Ding Qiao back to see our staff dormitory." Seeing Ding Qiao's hesitation, Wen Lang asked You Jingyue to drag him away.
Ding Qiao panicked, "Brother Lang, I really can't do it."
"There's nothing you can't do. You said that your life was saved by me. The only requirement I have for you now is to be worthy of the life I saved. What other people say doesn't count, only what you say will matter." Forget it, what kind of person you are and what kind of person you want to be is up to you to decide." Wen Lang walked in front, his voice was not loud, but it was enough to deafen Ding Qiao's ears.
Ding Qiao settled down in Wen Lang's new store. He was the first employee in Wen Lang's new store. After getting along with him for a few days, Wen Lang found that Ding Qiao looked thin, but in fact he had great strength and good physical strength. He is fine.
"I have helped the family with the work since I was a child. I have been doing all the work of chopping firewood, carrying water and planting the land. I have been used to it for so many years." Ding Qiao felt a little embarrassed. The brothers of other people's families are all so delicate that they are loved by their husbands. But he was strong and rough like a man.
When Wen Lang heard this, he clapped his hands, "It's amazing. Even if you get lost in the mountains, you can survive for a while with this survivability."
"Brother Lang, I can do it too." You Jingyue said unconvinced.
"Forget it, you haven't recognized the vegetables in our vegetable patch until now." Wen Lang shrugged helplessly.
You Jingyue blushed, "Brother Lang, you're going too far, you even exposed my faults, I just don't know each other well, I'll get to know you after a while."
Li Le and Fang Liuer laughed out loud when they heard this, and even Ding Qiao couldn't help being infected by the atmosphere and smiled.
It was the first time someone praised him for being great, instead of dismissing him as vulgar.
Wen Lang taught Ding Qiao how to grill the barbecue. Don't look at the grill and just stand there, sprinkling condiments. The work hardly stopped.
The taste of barbecue was developed by Wen Lang after several experiments. Ding Qiao has been in and out of the kitchen since he was a child. He was called to cook when he was not as tall as the stove. Although he had never seen barbecue before, Wen Lang taught him It's done, it's very quick to get started, and the grilled barbecue is more delicious every time.
As tasters, Wen Lang and the others ate very satisfied, patted their swollen stomachs, and gave Ding Qiao a thumbs up.
Then a tragedy happened to the few of them. They got angry after eating too much barbecue, You Jingyue had a nosebleed in the middle of the night, and Wen Lang ran to the toilet several times.
Fang Liuer and Li Le even had several pimples and sighed in the mirror from time to time.
Wen Lang hurriedly brewed a large pot of chrysanthemum tea for everyone to clear away heat and detoxify. He poured out a cup to drink whenever he had time, and finally returned to normal four days later.
"This barbecue is delicious, but it's easy to get angry." Fang Liuer sighed.
"It's too much to go too far, we still have to exercise restraint." Wen Lang said.
Several people nodded.
"I'm going out for a while." Wen Lang stretched, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the store, he went out for a stroll.
As soon as he left on his front foot, the willow wind switch came on his back foot, and he ordered a table full of food by himself. You Jingyue brought the food up, and subconsciously looked at him twice more, could he finish eating so much?
But when he saw Liu Fengzhi's gaze, the falcon-like eyes made You Jingyue's heart tremble, but his face was tense, and he stared back.
For some reason, Liu Fengchi felt that You Jingyue looked a bit like a vicious little fox, with a red leather skin.
"Your floating skills are too poor." Liu Fengjiao said suddenly.
You Jingyue's eyes widened when she heard the words, how could Liu Fengchi know?
He paused, looked Liu Fengzhu up and down, he was tall and tall, very similar to the black shadow that night.
"You were the master who played around next to me that night?!" You Jingyue said in surprise.
Compared to You Jingyue's astonishment, Liu Fengzhi nodded with a calm face, quite superior, "Yes."
How could it be such a coincidence? !
You Jingyue looked at Liu Fengzhu in a daze, and suddenly felt a wave of emotion in her heart, "Well... can I teach you some skills next time?"
