Chu Yunli was silent and didn't speak for a while.
Mother Wen was so anxious that she raised her upper body and said, "Who is it? Don't let outsiders try to instigate our relationship between mother and daughter."
"No one is provoking it. I have the eyes to see it." Chu Yunli simply sat down and made it clear today, "When those people came to borrow food, I stopped Yuan Cha from letting them borrow food. In the eyes of outsiders, she is kind.
, you don’t know, I’m the only one standing there to stop you, so I’m the one who’s stingy, an adopted daughter who refuses to let the Wen family’s food be borrowed, how will they scold me secretly? I’m in my twenties and haven’t gotten married yet, and there’s another one like this
How can you rest assured of your reputation?"
Mother Wen wanted to speak, but Chu Yunli was the first to interrupt, "Are you going to say that we are all a family and don't have to worry so much?"
Mother Wen closed her mouth.
"I treat you as a family. I work hard in the restaurant and stop those people from borrowing food. But you push me in front to block me when something happens. Can you treat me like a family?
?”
"These are all accidental." Mother Wen said seriously, "You are my daughter. I once wanted you to be my daughter-in-law. I really love you, so how could I harm you?"
"No need to explain." Chu Yunli pointed at the corner of her eyes, "I can see it with my eyes and feel it in my heart. So, when you talk about the deep love between mother and daughter, I only find it ironic. From now on, we can live our own lives!"
Of course, the Wen family has raised me, and if you and dad get sick in the future, I will definitely come back to see you. No matter how much...that's it."
She raised her hand to open the door and stepped out step by step. She felt relaxed all over. These were what Wen Zhi wanted to say.
In her previous life, she did not meet Liu An in this winter. She was not married and was still helping in the restaurant. Every time Li Yuancha wanted to borrow food, she was stopped by her. The most intense one was in front of twenty or thirty people from the Wen family.
She insisted on locking the warehouse and found someone to guard the door.
She did keep the Wen family's food supply, but because of this, she gained a reputation as being stingy and domineering, unable to recognize how much she weighed.
Not long after the beginning of spring, someone from the Wen family helped her propose marriage. He was also a wealthy businessman in another town, and the Wen family agreed.
But after Wen Zhi married him, he realized that he was not a wealthy businessman, not even a businessman. He was a mountain man, over forty years old, living in the mountains, making a living by hunting, and the purpose of marrying a wife was to have children.
.Before Wen Zhi, he had already beaten to death two wives.
Wen Zhi never thought that she would be in such a situation. On her wedding night, she didn't want to accompany such a person and wanted to go home. She originally thought of discussing with him, giving money and food, so that he could let her go home. But the man drank
After a while, he punched her on the head. Gradually, she didn't know anything anymore.
When she walked out of Wen's house, Chu Yunli felt resentful and resentful. Her chest was blocked and she felt uncomfortable. She covered her chest and frowned slightly.
Li Yuan sent her tea all the way and deliberately talked to her, but Chu Yunli ignored her. Seeing that she seemed uncomfortable, she quickly asked, "Sister, what's wrong with you?"
As he said that, he stretched out his hand to support her arm, "I'll take you home and see my aunt by the way."
Chu Yunli avoided it and said, "No need."
Li Yuancha was not angry and insisted on sending her home. In fact, the Liu family lived across the street and it only took a few breaths to walk. Where could she need someone to take her home?
Before entering the Liu family's door, the Wen family steward came back in a hurry. He was about to enter the Wen family's door, but when he saw Li Yuan's tea, he turned around and ran over, "Young madam, the food at the entrance of the town is gone. I have been through four days today."
A pot of porridge, still owe a pot."
Li Yuancha was suspicious, "The food delivered two days ago was enough to last for five days. It's only the third day, why is it gone?"
The steward lowered his head and said, "Those people said that the porridge was too thin and could not be filled by the steward, so they added more grain to each pot."
Chu Yunli didn't want to hear how Li Yuancha helped people, so she turned around and walked in.
Li Yuancha took a step forward and said, "Sister, I have something to discuss with you."
Chu Yunli waved her hand, "If you let me help you, give up as soon as possible. I only have a small dowry, and it's still useless. I don't have enough money myself, so who can I save?"
Li Yuan was speechless.
The door to the Liu family was closed, and the guilt on Li Yuancha's face was also closed.
A little later, Chu Yunli's words about the dowry were reported back to the Wen family. After all, there were people inside and outside the gate at that time. There were always many caring people at any time.
When Wen's mother learned about this, she found a reason for Chu Yunli's words during the day. It turned out to be for the dowry.
There was nothing that could be done about it. Li Yuancha moved nearly three thousand kilograms of grain out and had just lost so much. How could Father Wen be willing to spend so much on a dowry? Besides, she was an adopted daughter, so no matter how much she gave, it was a favor.
By the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the snow had melted and the grass in the ground had sprouted young shoots. By this time, there were still forty or fifty people left at the entrance of the town.
Spring has begun, and every household is busy clearing the land. These people seem to have no intention of going home to cultivate the land and build houses. They stay in the tent at the entrance of the town every day, waiting to eat porridge.
Li Yuancha has sent out more than 3,000 kilograms of grain in more than a month, most of which was moved from the Li family.
She wanted to get out of the Wen family's warehouse, but unfortunately Father Wen refused to let go. He also irritated her with some very unpleasant words, such as saying that the Li family's daughter was only a prodigal. Li Yuancha was so angry that she went back to the Li family to ask her father for help.
The Li family really loves their daughter and tries their best to fulfill Li Yuancha's requirements. But businessmen have a bottom line when pursuing profits. Even though Li Yuancha is the daughter-in-law of the Wen family, people in the town now know that the porridge they drink is made of Li Yuancha.
The kindness of the Li family has now spread to several surrounding towns.
Moreover, after the beginning of spring, Mr. Li does not plan to continue moving food to the entrance of the town.
Under normal circumstances, when there was no food, the people in Zhenkou would have dispersed. But they didn't. They just lay down next to the Li family's porridge shed and refused to move. At first glance, it seemed that everyone was starving to death.
Average.
This is a scoundrel.
Originally, the Li family was so kind, how could they watch people starve to death?
If you can't see it, you will naturally bring food to make porridge.
Mr. Li laughed angrily when he learned about it, but he didn't expect these people to be so thick-skinned. He also got angry, waved his hand and said, "Ignore them!"
If we don't do anything now, the food we spent earlier will be wasted.
Mr. Li doesn't care. A good reputation is indeed needed to do business, but it is not necessary. In the whole town, his Li family is the only one willing to give out porridge, and many people in the surrounding villages remember it. Besides, if others don't give out porridge, business is not done as usual.
?
At the end of the first year, spring was warm and the flowers were blooming. Mrs. Liu was going back to the county town, taking her son and daughter-in-law with her.
Chu Yunli wants to go to the county town not for anything else, but to prepare some medicinal materials for Liu An. Although the town is large, it still has not as many medicinal materials as the county town, and there are not many good medicines. Even if there are, they are kept in various medical clinics.
, it is not easy to sell, and no matter how big the town is, it is limited, and any news will spread quickly. She doesn't think it is a good thing to spend a lot of money to buy medicine if the news spreads.
Liu An's carriage walked in front, with Chu Yunli and Madam Liu sitting behind. When they left the town, Madam Liu opened the curtain, "I heard that there are many people here who are being supported by the Li family and are not leaving."
Looking along the curtain she opened, she saw a lot of people lying in the sheds by the roadside, looking lifeless. Chu Yunli shook her head, "I don't know where these people came from."
Anyway, there are no people here in the town or surrounding villages. Even those bastards have gone home to farm.
"There is no shortage of people like this who are willing to push their limits." Mrs. Liu put down the curtain, "If the Li family doesn't handle it carefully this time, it will probably be a thankless task."
When the curtain fell, Chu Yunli saw something out of the corner of her eye. She didn't pay attention to what Mrs. Liu said behind her. She reached out to open it and saw a familiar burly figure in her memory. She was afraid of admitting her mistake, so she turned around and opened the small curtain behind the carriage.
, and sure enough, I saw a tall figure walking back into the crowd not far away, with a scar from the corner of his eye to the bridge of his nose.
It's indeed him!
Chu Yunli held the hand of the small curtain tightly, and her mind was spinning all over for a moment, thinking about how to deal with this person.
"Zhizhi, what's wrong with you?"
Mrs. Liu's doubtful voice sounded. Chu Yunli came back to his senses, put down the curtain, and his expression returned to normal, "I have never seen such a sloppy person."
Hearing this, Mrs. Liu laughed, "In disaster years, there are all kinds of people. When we get to the gate of the county town, there will only be more refugees there than here. However, those people will not be kept waiting for others to feed them.
Although there are many rich people, their sheds will be demolished after spring. These people just want to find someone to feed them, but they don’t know where to find them.”
"By the way, the Liu family can also set up a shed to serve porridge. Don't feel embarrassed that they don't serve porridge here. In times like this, the Liu family has to give out at least tens of thousands of kilograms of food. And these people in the town may not really know how to do it.
Those who starve to death and flee to the county seat are the ones who are truly desperate."
Chu Yunli suddenly came to his senses and said with a smile, "I have forgotten about the wealth and honor of the Liu family."
Mrs. Liu waved her hand, "No matter how rich you are, An Bao won't have too much property in his hands. Don't even think about having nothing. I just hope that An Bao can be in good health."
The meaning of the words is obvious, so that Chu Yunli should not think about things that he does not have, such as the huge business of the Liu family.
With the escort, the journey went smoothly. Five days later, the carriage entered the county town.
At the gate of the county town, you can see traces of someone once setting up a shed, but at this time they are just traces. There are no people giving soup or refugees.
The Liu family's house is located in the south of the county. The few streets here are populated by wealthy businessmen in the city. When Mrs. Liu came home, the middle gate of the mansion was opened to welcome her.
At that time, Chu Yunli was sitting in Liu An's carriage and curiously asked, "How is your relationship with your brothers and sisters?"
In the past few days, Chu Yunli has been accompanying Mrs. Liu most of the time. Liu An has not found a chance to tell her about the Liu family. Mainly, he has nothing to say, "Generally."
Really average.
Liu An's brothers and sisters are at least ten years older than him, so it's strange that they have feelings for each other. However, "normal" is not bad, at least they are not enemies.
Because Liu's father was ill in bed, Chu Yunli was considered a bride, so she had to visit her elders, brothers, sisters-in-law, sisters-in-law, and husband-in-law one by one.
Everyone was kind to her, but when facing her only aunt, she stared at her face and hesitated to hand over the gift in her hand, "From the Anbao family, do you live in Bu Town?"
Chu Yunli's heart moved slightly, "Yes."
Liu An looked at the two of them and said, "Aunt, Zhizhi is the adopted daughter of the Wen family in Bu Town..."
"Adopted daughter?" Aunt Liu was thoughtful, but didn't say much.
Seeing this, Chu Yunli felt slightly relieved. It was indeed the right thing to come to the county. If there is news, it will be found out sooner or later!
