"Madam, are you okay?" Mei Niang quickly pulled Ling'er away to check Xia Qiyue's wounds.
A child who is only six years old can bite people really hard. There are a row of teeth marks on the back of Xia Qiyue's hand.
"Miss Ling'er, why are you so blind-eyed? Although I have been in this house not long ago, I can still see how kind my wife is to you. You were just a servant, but she raised you as your own daughter, but you did it for others.
Come and bite her? Why are you so vicious at such a young age?"
Mei Niang was so angry that she pulled Ling'er and said something, but Ling'er didn't feel any regret at all. Instead, she started crying aggrievedly. Mei Niang pulled her like this, which made her cry even more.
"From now on, don't call her miss anymore. It's not the case in the first place!" Xia Qiyue gently reminded her, and then looked at Lao An, "Dad, are you going to stay? If not, I'll take her back!"
She has been completely disappointed with Ling'er. Although Ling'er is still young, she has been bad since she was a child. You can't teach this kind of child well. She has always believed that Hua'er is her biological brother, and now she has eaten both inside and outside.
, then there is no need for her to stay.
It was An Zihao's relationship that originally bought her, but for Ge Mingyu's sake, she could not even think about rejecting it.
"Remain, from the fourth family, your hand is injured. Go back and apply the medicine first. Father Yinzi will send it to you in a moment!" Boss Lao An said. It was useless for Mrs. Lao An to wait any longer. She had spoken, and if she didn't obey, she would leave.
ah.
She is so old, if she is divorced, she will not be able to find where her parents fled to, not to mention her parents are long gone, where can she go?
Xia Qiyue shook her head, "Dad, I don't want to take this girl back again, it doesn't hurt to wait a while!"
Finally, Xia Qiyue sent Mei Niang back to get Ling'er's deed of betrayal and brought it back. Under the murderous eyes of everyone in Lao An's family, he took the ten taels of silver and left. Ling'er didn't say anything else, just cried softly.
, maybe, she also wants to stay with her parents, after all, she loves her brother so much, hehehe...
It was already dark when Xia Qiyue returned home, but she met Lu'er at the door of the house.
"Madam, where have you been? My servant has been waiting for you!"
Lu'er's injury has been healed and she is currently working beside Xia Qiyue. Xia Qiyue doesn't let her stay close to him, but sends her there if there is any need.
"What important thing do you want to wait for me at the door? Come on, go in and tell me!"
Xia Qiyue brought Mei Niang and Lu'er into the house. Mei Niang hurriedly ran to the kitchen in the second courtyard to help, because as soon as she was delayed, Mrs. Zhang was left busy alone.
The two of them had a lot of work in a day. In addition to cooking for the family, they also had to feed pigs and cows. Madam brought back another horse. Although Madam fed the two horses herself, they also had to feed the pigs and cows.
I have to tidy up the stables, drink water, etc.
The two of us were very busy at the end of the day.
Fortunately, Xia Qiyue didn't have time to tend to the vegetable garden yet, otherwise the two of them would be even busier.
Xia Qiyue took Lu'er to the main room. She didn't go to her room because she saw Lu'er looking anxious, so she came to the main room.
"Tell me, what are you anxious about and why do you want to wait for me at the door of the house?" Xia Qiyue sat at the main seat and asked Lu'er who was standing in front of her.
Since Lu'er was bought back by Xia Qiyue, she has always been a wife, and she no longer has the same attitude towards her as before.
"Madam, Lu'er wants to ask you for a leave. Tomorrow...tomorrow is the day when Miss Qin gets married. Lu'er wants to go over and have a look..."
Xia Qiyue frowned, Miss Qin, Lu'er's former master, it was because of her that Lu'er was wrongly accused, beaten, and sold out.
A good dowry girl suffered such a misfortune because of the young lady's jealousy. But now that things have passed and Miss Qin got married, what did she do in the past?
"Madam, Lu'er won't do anything. She just wants to...see him again."
Xia Qiyue didn't ask much about what was going on here, and she didn't ask if Lu'er didn't tell her. She originally bought Lu'er because she was literate and good at music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and asked her to teach the children, so she didn't know what happened in the past.
Neither have any interest.
But Lu'er said so today, and she wanted to ask why.
"Tell me more about it!" Xia Qiyue said calmly.
Because Lu'er was sold with a death contract, in other words, Lu'er was hers.
"Madam, originally, my wife sent me to have a trial marriage for three days, but after I came back, the lady didn't want to keep me. After knowing that my uncle was in good health and had no hidden diseases, she thought of a way to sell me out. But, this slave and my uncle
It’s love at first sight. I just want to see him again and see what it’s like to get married. I won’t do anything. Madam, don’t worry!”
Xia Qiyue understood and cooperated with the Qin family to let the dowry girl go for a trial marriage. Then Miss Qin felt alienated and had no choice but to sell the dowry girl.:
In ancient times, there was indeed a custom of trial marriage, which meant that the girl who was in trial marriage should spend three days with her uncle first to test whether there were any hidden diseases, so that there would be no mistakes when her daughter was married.
However, the Qin family actually asked the dowry girl to go for a trial marriage. Afterwards, the young lady ignored her and even sold him out. This was a bit unreasonable.
It seems that Lu'er still has feelings for that man. It's a bit magical to say that it's only been three days, how can there be feelings?
Anyway, Xia Qiyue felt that she would not fall in love with a man in such a short period of time, and she did not believe in love at first sight.
In the end, Xia Qiyue agreed to Lu'er's request and asked her to see if she could give up her wish, so that she could feel at ease in the future.
Men are ruthless creatures, especially men in ancient times. When they are ruthless, women are no better than playthings.
After Lu'er got the agreement, she rushed to Jiuli Town overnight.
The next day was not only the day when Miss Qin got married, but also the day when their candy shop opened. Everything was ready, so all she had to do was go there early the next morning. Xia Qiyue got up early the next morning and hitched up the carriage.
Rush to Jiuli Town.
An Sijin and the other two have already settled in the backyard of the candy house. Firstly, they are guarding the shop, and secondly, it is for convenience and they don't have to run back and forth.
Although the candy house has a backyard, it is small and has few rooms to live in. After the three of them live there, there will be no extra space.
Fortunately, the candy was made at home. Xia Qiyue only brought her younger sister, not the two little ones and Xia Xinghe.
When they arrived at the candy house, they went directly into the backyard, stopped the carriage, and got ready for the opening.
Although it opened during the day, Xia Qiyue still bought a lot of fireworks and firecrackers. Currently, it is enough for three people to guard the store. In addition, she and her sister will come over to help from time to time, so running a small candy shop will not be too difficult.
Effortless.
At the auspicious moment, Xia Qiyue cut the ribbon and unveiled the red cloth on the plaque. The words Xia Ji Candy House came into view, followed by a series of fireworks.
On the already lively street, with the busy business on both sides of the candy shop, people in line turned to look. When they saw the mini orchard in the house, no one could refuse and came over one after another.
