Although Zhao Xing didn't want to see Zhao Lingxiu, he saw her crying miserably, and since she was only in junior high school, there were some things she wouldn't understand without being taught.
The original owner favored boys over girls, and his maternal love for Zhao Lingxiu was limited to raising her. This gave Li Yunjuan the opportunity to win over this unpopular sister-in-law.
"What does mother mean?"
"Did Li Yunjuan deliberately harm me?"
Zhao Lingxiu's face turned white as she stood up and said bitterly: "I'm going to ask Li Yunjuan. If she is really the one who harmed me, I will fight her to the death!"
"Sit down!" Zhao Xing shouted sharply, which frightened Zhao Lingxiu into sitting back subconsciously.
Rubbing his swollen temples, Zhao Yan felt very angry.
Before, I planned to have no contact with Zhao Lingxiu until death, but now Zhao Lingxiu's fortune has turned out to be extremely good, and the relationship between mother and daughter is very deep.
Although Zhao Xing didn't think she would truly like Zhao Lingxiu, she would be unlucky if she deliberately went against her luck.
After just a few days of good times, Zhao Xing didn't want to experience the hard days before liberation again.
"Would you admit this kind of thing to you? Just think about whether she made it clear to you who she was working for when she introduced this job to you, and you can figure it out."
"In a place like that, how can the so-called boss do less of kidnapping and trafficking good girls? If you hadn't met us today, you should know what the consequences would be!"
Zhao Xing didn't want to say anything more. If Zhao Lingxiu stubbornly believed that Li Yunjuan was a good person, Zhao Xing would not keep her at home for a day even if he had to go against his fate.
"It's getting late. You're injured. I'm going to boil a pot of hot water. You can scrub it and apply medicine and then go to bed early. Did Li Yunjuan harm you intentionally? Sooner or later you will know the truth. You don't have to worry about this matter. Just take care of it.
Recuperate at home and don't go to town recently. It won't harm your reputation when things calm down."
After Zhao Xing finished speaking, he stood up, but in his mind he was thinking about how to teach Li Yunjuan a lesson.
Although Zhao Xun is too lazy to actively seek trouble, he is not a soft persimmon who allows others to bully him, especially a poisonous-hearted person like Li Yunjuan.
Looking at Zhao Xing's back as she left the house neatly, Zhao Lingxiu bit her lips and shed tears. She always felt that her mother didn't care about her and even wished she didn't exist. Only now did she realize how wrong she was.
But there is already a rift between mother and daughter, can they still get along well?
Zhao Lingxiu, who didn't know what Zhao Lingxiu was thinking, had just finished giving her the medicine and drank the medicine boiled with Lingquan water when a guest came to the house.
Zhao Fugui had not returned home from the brick kiln, so he didn't know what happened during the day, so when he entered the house and saw Zhao Lingxiu, he didn't think much about it.
"Cousin uncle." Zhao Lingxiu took her mother's surname, so naturally she wanted to call her cousin.
"This girl, Lingxiu, is looking more and more like your mother when she was young, good girl." After Zhao Fugui said hello, he said to Zhao Xing: "You are lucky. There is a batch of bricks in the brick kiln that are not very good. It is not easy to build a house.
It's not strong, but it would be a good thing to make a fence or build a pigsty. I don't dare to make the decision for you, so I asked them to keep it for two days."
Zhao Xing had never thought of raising poultry at home because she was afraid that the smell of feces would smell like medicinal herbs.
But the yard at home is big enough. It would be suitable to lay bricks on it for drying medicinal materials. On rainy days, just pull up the shed to cover it.
"I want as much as I want." Zhao Xing said without thinking about it: "I want to make the yard wider, and my cousin will buy me the title deed for another acre of land. The money will be deducted from the previous one. It won't be enough later.
Get it from me again."
"Why did you buy so much land?" After asking, Zhao Fugui realized that he had focused on the wrong thing and said hurriedly: "There are several cartloads of burned bricks, and your yard is covered with them and you can't even lay them!
"
Zhao Xing smiled and said: "The business of medicinal materials at home cannot be stopped. I really plan to use bricks to pave the floor to dry the medicinal materials. Furthermore, I plan to use bricks to build a fire wall in the house, just like our earthen kang.
, add a fire to keep it warm in winter, and you can also roast medicinal herbs.”
Zhao Xing said silently in his heart: I'm just afraid of the cold, roasting medicinal herbs is just a way of doing it, but it's a pity that I can't talk about what I want to enjoy.
Zhao Fugui swallowed his saliva, stood up and was about to leave. He had already stepped out of the threshold with one foot, and then he remembered and asked, "How many more houses do you want to build if you want an extra acre of land?"
Zhao Xing shook his head, glanced at the stunned Zhao Lingxiu, frowned slightly and said: "The west room is also as big as the hall, so it can be divided into inner and outer rooms."
He was not sure whether Zhao Lingxiu would stay for a long time. Zhao Xun didn't want to spend so much time on her, but he couldn't give her a room to sleep in before evicting her.
Zhao Fugui nodded and left, walking fast as if someone was chasing him away.
Zhao Xing was about to get up and close the door, but Zhou Huo rushed over at this moment, holding a letter of cakes in his hand.
"Auntie, we closed the stall early today. A butler bought everything. He also ordered fifty kilograms of meatballs from us. We need them tomorrow. I've given the deposit."
Zhou Huo was very happy. After entering the house, he saw Zhao Lingxiu stunned for a moment, nodded as a greeting, and then said: "I bought this for a few little ones. They are growing taller and are hungry at night."
"You are interested. Today I went to the town and bought some snacks. I will bring them back to give you some milk to try. It is a good thing that business is booming, but you two sisters cannot afford to be tired. Your health is your greatest asset." Zhao Xing
I collected the cakes and replied with a letter of snacks.
Zhou Huo smiled and scratched his head. Is he here to beat the autumn wind?
"I only have a lot of strength. I won't be too tired. Don't worry, Auntie." With Zhao Lingxiu here, Zhou Huo felt uncomfortable speaking, so he said: "My second brother said that those clothes are almost finished, and I will give them to you tomorrow."
Auntie sent it."
"Well, don't worry, tell him not to be greedy and hurt his eyes." Zhao Xin liked the hard work of the Zhou children, but he didn't want to tire them out.
Zhou Huo closed the door behind him when he left. Zhao Lingxiu wanted to say something several times but hesitated.
What Zhao Xing disliked the most was this nagging temperament, so he frowned and said, "What do you want to say?"
"Mom and the Zhou family get along very well?" Zhao Lingxiu was surprised, and only then did she remember that her new home was next door to the Zhou family.
"When I was about to starve to death, not only the village chief's family but also the Zhou family tightened their belts to help me, what do you think?" Zhao Xing asked back, seeing Zhao Lingxiu tugging at the skirt of her clothes uneasily, she went up to the kang to spread the quilt and said
: "Go and ask Yi Ning to come back and sleep. At night, if you sleep in the back room, apply some ointment on it if you feel uncomfortable. It's a few hundred taels of silver a bottle. Be careful not to break it."
The ointment is the result of Zhao Xin's research in his previous life, and it is very effective in removing scars. This is because he is afraid that Zhao Lingxiu is not a good product.
However, a bottle of several hundred taels of silver is not expensive. Who wants everyone in the world to cherish their appearance?
Lying down in his underwear, Zhao Xing, who was not sleepy at all, stared at the roof and sneered: "There will be a tough battle to fight tomorrow, and we have to recharge our batteries. As expected, people can't bear the hardship when they get old."
