"If it weren't for you, how could I have married into the Cui family?" Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth, "The whole family are all liars, and no one is good."
From the looks of it, she must have run back to her parents' house yesterday after finding out she was cheated. "You came back like this?"
Mrs. Zhou frowned, "They cheated me into getting married. If I don't come back, will I still stay in the Cui family?"
Chu Yunli was curious, "What about your money? I can give you some of the congratulatory gifts given by everyone yesterday, right?"
Ms. Zhou was stunned for a moment, then realized, "Xi'er, come back with me!" After saying that, she hurried back to the backyard.
Listening to her words "go back" proves that although Zhou was angry, she still regarded the Cui family as her own home.
When Chu Yunli took the snacks and went out, Zhou had already packed them up. Before leaving, she said, "You must come back tomorrow, and we will have a good time then!"
Return home?
I still have to go back. As for the separation, I'm afraid that the Cui family will have to fight after the separation.
When Chu Yunli returned to the house, she saw Lu Feng sitting under the big tree facing the courtyard door. When he saw her coming back, he immediately asked, "Why have you been gone so long?"
It’s a quick round trip from the next town.
Chu Yunli didn't refute, but smiled and said, "I'll make some medicine for you."
While the medicine was being boiled, Lu Feng sat aside and watched, and suddenly asked, "I can't accompany you wherever you go. Do you regret marrying a sick man like me?"
"No!" Chu Yunli fanned the small stove. Seeing that the medicine was almost boiled, she took a bowl and poured it out, blew it for a while and handed it to him, "Drink it while it's hot."
Lu Feng looked at the dark medicine, took it and drank it in one gulp.
Seeing how neat he was, Chu Yunli took the bowl back and asked with a smile, "Aren't you afraid of poison?"
Although Lu Feng looked pale, it could be seen that he was in good spirits and mood, "You said you didn't want to be a widow."
The next morning, Chu Yunli wanted to go home. Lu Feng couldn't walk now, so naturally he couldn't accompany her, so he specially ordered a carriage to take her off.
Although the Lu family is not peaceful, it is much better than the Cui family. At least it is a big place, and it is not like the Cui family where people can't see each other, and it is easy to quarrel. Returning to Sanli Village again, Chu Yunli felt as if he had been away for a long time.
.
Mrs. Zhou was under the eaves, lying on a chair eating snacks. Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Fang were setting up the meal. They were still eating porridge with vegetables in the morning just like when Chu Yunli was there.
Originally, when a married woman returned home, her parents' family had to prepare a table of good food, but looking at the Cui family's appearance, Cui Yuan'er didn't take Cui Yuan'er seriously at all.
Cui Yuan'er from the previous life didn't come back at all today. No one from the Cui family came to ask.
It seems that once Cui Yuan'er got married and paid off the debt, she had nothing to do with the Cui family anymore.
Seeing Chu Yunli getting out of the carriage at the door, everyone in the yard was surprised. When they heard the noise, everyone who was waiting for dinner in the house came out.
The neighbors on the left and right also saw it, but it was the lady next door who said hello first, "Yuan'er is back?"
"Yes." Chu Yunli smiled and asked casually, "Auntie, have you had breakfast?"
Only then did Fang react and opened the courtyard door, "Yuan'er, you're back."
Chu Yunli walked in, and Mrs. Zhou under the eaves snorted. Except for her, no one else looked good.
As a group of people entered the door, Xiao Zhang whispered, "Are you still embarrassed to come back?"
"I didn't want to go back at first." Chu Yunli stood at the door, "I just wanted to come back to see how you were doing."
Zhang searched around and asked, "Where is your homecoming gift?"
Chu Yunli shook his head, "No, I came back to say that I married the Lu family for you and earned twelve taels of betrothal gift, which can be regarded as repaying your love for raising me. From now on, you will treat the Cui family as if there is no such thing as me.
As a human being, I will treat myself as if I have no natal family."
"It's best this way!" Little Zhang said quickly, "When the eldest young master of the Lu family is gone, it would be best if you don't come to beg us."
What do you want me to ask for? Cui Yuan'er did ask for it in her previous life. Unfortunately, no one from the Cui family helped or said anything, and they didn't even show their faces.
Mr. Zhou is most sensitive to money, "You said the Lu family received a betrothal gift of twelve taels?"
No one except my own family knows about what happened between the Cui family and the Lu family. It makes sense that the Zhou family didn't know the inside story at this time.
Xiao Zhang was a little flustered, but Chu Yunli had already nodded, "It was my aunt who picked up the betrothal gift given to you by the Lu family when she went to Xi Po's house to marry Cui Fu and the others. She asked Xi Po privately..."
"I picked up the betrothal gift given to you by the Lu family." Mrs. Zhou could no longer hear the words that followed, and her face turned pale.
"Stop talking!" Mrs. Zhang interrupted Chu Yunli's unfinished words, "What about the past? Since you are not coming back, we understand what you said, so let's leave it at that."
"You are not allowed to leave!" Mrs. Zhou stopped Chu Yunli, "Let's speak clearly before leaving! You said that was the betrothal gift given to me by the Lu family? How did you know? Who told you?"
Chu Yunli nodded and said seriously, "I only found out yesterday. Mrs. Mei asked her brother to find Xi Po, but he... ahem... put the money on the roadside, and then it was picked up by the aunt. Later, the Zhou family
We have made a marriage arrangement with the Cui family. So, you said yesterday that I harmed you, but that is not true. Looking at it more carefully, it should be Mrs. Mei's brother who harmed you."
Zhou's face was pale and her lips were trembling.
Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Liu beside them were discussing something in a low voice, and then asked, "Yuan'er, are you sure you picked up twelve taels?"
Chu Yunli nodded.
Fang was anxious, "Then where did our betrothal gifts come from?"
Xiao Zhang tried to interrupt several times but failed. Seeing that there was no way to hide it now, and they would have to know it sooner or later, he said heartily, "I borrowed it!"
These two crisp words made the eyes of the two newly arrived daughters-in-law dim and they almost lost their balance.
Before this marriage was consummated, the Liu Fang family had really seen a lot of the Zhou family's reputation and thought about becoming a sister-in-law with the Zhou family's daughter. Apart from anything else, they would also have a way to borrow money when the family encountered difficulties.
Not everywhere?
But after becoming sisters-in-law for nearly a month, they have figured out that if they want to get money from Zhou, they have no way unless they give interest!
You know, as the mother-in-law of Xiao Zhang, she has to ask for interest if she takes any money, not to mention that they are just sisters-in-law.
They didn't get the benefits they wanted, and the Cui family still borrowed the betrothal gift. In the end, they had to pay it back themselves. This marriage seemed like a good marriage at first, but now it seems like nothing more than that, or even worse than others!
The atmosphere in the room was stiff. Chu Yunli was particularly satisfied and turned around to go out.
Mrs. Zhang chased her out and cursed, "You are a house disturber, and you will die the same as your vixen mother!"
Chu Yunli turned around and picked up the rope tied to the firewood at the kitchen door. When Zhang saw this, she immediately remembered Cui Fu's injury, which took more than half a month to heal, and immediately shut up.
Chu Yunli swung the rope and said, "Swear again."
Mrs. Zhang didn't say anything, but when she saw her trying to shake off the rope, she took a step back.
Chu Yunli went out and got on the carriage to return home. The journey went smoothly. Lu Feng was waiting for her at the same place. Almost as soon as she appeared at the door, she noticed his gaze and felt inexplicably sad.
She walked up to him, knelt down and said, "How long have you been waiting for me?"
Lu Feng looked her up and down, thinking he was invisible, "I wasn't waiting for you, I was basking in the sun here." Then he asked, "Did the Cui family bully you?"
It was obvious that he was duplicity and changed the subject. Chu Yunli did not expose him, "They did not bully me."
If your guess is correct, the Cui family should be quarreling at the moment, and maybe a few in-laws are involved.
"It's a pity that I'm not in good health and can't accompany you." Lu Feng said sadly, "Even if I accompany you, if outsiders bully you, I can't help you." He became more and more pitiful.
Chu Yunli patted his hand and said, "Don't worry, you will get better."
Lu Feng nodded, "Yeah."
Chu Yunli looked at the sky and said, "No acupuncture has been performed today, let's go."
When Lu Feng heard the acupuncture, his body stiffened, but he still responded.
For the next few days, Chu Yunli didn't go out and applied acupuncture and decoction all day long. After ten days, Lu Feng could barely stand up and would hold on to the wall and walk a few steps every day.
Apart from the woman who delivers meals and does laundry and cleaning every day, there is only Hanzi in his yard. Not to mention outsiders, even the Lu family themselves don't know that he is getting better.
Father Lu was very busy. A few days after his son got married, he left with the caravan again.
Therefore, the housekeeper is now in charge and does not give preferential treatment to their yard. Under this situation, it is no wonder that Lu Feng is getting worse and worse.
I don’t know if the food at home is good or not. Anyway, the food delivered is mediocre and can only fill his stomach. Lu Feng has to recover from his illness and cannot eat this, so he asked Hanzi to buy chickens and ducks and make soup for him every day.
After a few days, Lu Feng could walk without support.
On this day, Chu Yunli was making soup in the yard, and Lu Feng was taking a walk, looking at her from time to time. When the two of them were playing the game of you look at me, I don’t look at you, I look at you, but you don’t look at me, someone suddenly came to the door of the yard.
.
Lu Chen stood at the door of the yard, stunned.
Chu Yunli noticed the person and asked, "Second brother, is there something wrong?"
Lu Chen came back to his senses and asked, "Brother is fine?" Then he was confused, "Why is Big Brother suddenly fine?"
Chu Yunli fanned the stove, "He didn't eat well before, but recently I made soup for him. Now that he has strength, he can leave naturally."
What she said sounded like the truth. If Chase Lu hadn't known the inside story, he would have believed her.
Chase Lu looked at it for a while, then suddenly turned around and left.
Not long after, Mrs. Mei came in a hurry. She was accompanied by the girl she saw on the day of the tea ceremony.
At that time, Lu Feng had finished walking and was sitting down to rest. Mei looked at him doubtfully, "Feng'er, are you okay?"
Lu Feng shook his head, "No!"
Mei didn't believe it, "So Chen'er said you can stand up? If you get better, it's better to find a doctor. By the way, you originally wanted... who treated you, Dr. Jiang or Dr. Gu
?”
These two are the only two doctors in Yulan Town. Apart from them, there are only local doctors in each village who know folk medicine.
Lu Feng was in a good mood and explained seriously, "No one helped me cure it. I didn't eat well before and had no strength. Now that I eat well, I'll be fine."
