Chu's mother took a peek at her son's expression and saw that he was calmly adjusting his collar, his face was serious, his eyes were crooked, and he was in a happy mood.
The son was obviously enjoying it, and Chu's mother was a fool to be a bad person. She immediately decided to pretend that she didn't see anything. "Xuan'er didn't make a fuss, she just wanted to go out for a walk. I originally wanted to wait for him to come out for some fresh air, but you guys came back."
This mother-in-law is very kind, and Chu Yunli is in a good mood, "I'll take him for a ride."
After the New Year, the weather gradually improved, and the people in the city were in a good mood. You know, tribes used to come in every winter to plunder, but last year they didn't. Now that winter is over, they probably won't come back this year.
.
In her previous life, Lu Qiuniang was unable to celebrate the New Year last year. When she learned that her son had died in infancy, she went to Li's house with a broken leg, without even looking at her son's body. Later, the Lu brothers spent a lot of money to get help from the doctor who helped with the diagnosis.
I learned from my mouth that my son had caught a cold and was found too late. The doctor’s actual words at the time were: The child had been having a high fever for at least three days. If he had called the doctor earlier, he would not have been unable to be saved!
Later, Lu Qiuniang ran to block the wealthy sister-in-law who was going out to do some shopping. She couldn't help but kneel down, insisting on demanding the truth.
At that time, she was holding on with only one breath, and she had vaguely guessed that her son had been harmed. The rich sister-in-law had no choice but to whisper, "The first day when young master Xuan'er fell ill, the second master took him to play outside.
I came back late at night, but it turned out that the second master was drunk and the slave had already gone to bed, leaving Master Xuan'er unattended. The next morning, I found out that Master Xuan'er was soaked to the skin the first day. Although I changed my clothes in time, he was still wet.
I have a high fever. I insist on using folk remedies to treat it..."
Lu Qiuniang had not slept since her son's death, and had run back and forth again. She was already mentally prepared for suspicion. When she heard with her own ears that it was Li Chaowen who deliberately harmed her son who had a fever, and that Li's father deliberately delayed treatment, she was still extremely angry.
, his body could not bear it and he fainted.
After waking up, she no longer had any expectations for the Li family. She planned to go to the Taoist temple outside the city to pray for her son, and then go to the Yamen to seek justice for him. As a result, not long after leaving the city, she encountered a robber and died!
wrong!
Chu Yunli opened his eyes, and in the night, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle.
When a child died tragically, it was normal for a mother to pray for him. But at that time, Lu Qiuniang's leg injury had not healed. Even if she wanted to pray, she should have postponed it. Based on her grief and anger at the time, she should have gone to the Yamen to file a complaint in anger! Although she complained
The Li family may not be convicted, but this is the only possible way for her to avenge her son. There is no reason for her to pray for blessings first.
She carefully recalled the people Lu Qiuniang met after she learned about her son... The Lu family couple, two brothers, and two sisters-in-law all advised her to relax and take good care of her health first. There was also someone... Yu Qing
cigarette!
"I heard that after the death of such a young child, it is easy to be resentful. Why don't you go outside the city to pray for him so that he can be reborn? This world is too miserable, don't leave him alone..." These were Yu Qingyan's original words.
Chu Yunli sneered, the Li family really didn't bother the two masters.
If Lu Qiuniang's encounter with the robbers had nothing to do with the Li family, she wouldn't believe it anyway. If Lu Qiuniang didn't investigate or file a complaint after her child's death, she might still be able to survive.
In the quiet room, a child next to him turned over and muttered, "Mom."
Chu Yunli stretched out her hand and patted her soothingly, "Mom is here, go to bed early." I will protect you in peace for the rest of your life.
Listening to the child's steady breathing, she carefully combed through Lu Qiuniang's memory several times before falling asleep.
In mid-February, with only half a month left for the wedding, the Chu family began to prepare for the wedding, and she moved back to the Lu family with her children.
Living in the Lu family this time was different from the last time. When she came back from Li, even though the Lu family tried their best not to mention the Li family in front of her, they could not help but sigh and the atmosphere at home was depressing. This time it was full of joy, and occasionally neighbors would come over.
Sit down.
Even though she has been married many times, Chu Yunli is still looking forward to it.
That afternoon, Mother Lu came back from outside and whispered, "Qingyan next door is back again. Is there another quarrel?"
Originally, Chu Yunli only planned to draw a clear line with Yu Qingyan and have no contact with her in the future. But a few days ago, she suspected that Lu Qiuniang's death was related to her, so she couldn't ignore it. Then she asked doubtfully, "We weren't fine before, why?"
Suddenly there was a quarrel?”
"Then who knows?" Mother Lu said casually, "They say they are a close couple. You and Chaowen were just as good in the past. Isn't it okay to say that you can't do it?"
Chu Yunli emphasized, "That's not my fault!"
"I know!" Mother Lu sat opposite her, "I'm just sighing. Chaowen seems to be such a gentle person, but who would have thought that he would fall out with him at any time. Life is full of misfortunes. When you came out of the Li family, I didn't either.
I knew you could marry so well." She shook her head, "The same goes for Qingyan next door, Cheng Yue looks good, and the two of them live a good life, but who would have thought that he would start to take action."
Mother and daughter only talked about Yu Qingyan, and she came over in the afternoon.
Chu Yunli was sitting in the yard basking in the sun without avoiding her. When he saw her coming in, he asked, "Is something going to happen again?"
Yu Qingyan: "..."
"It's noisy. I can't live this life. If it weren't for my children, I really don't want to go back."
Chu Yunli raised her eyebrows, "Why are you two arguing?"
"Silver!" Yu Qingyan sighed, "Poor and lowly couples suffer from everything. In this ordinary family, which couple wouldn't quarrel over this?"
Chu Yunli sat up straight and asked curiously, "Tell me honestly, how many benefits did the Li family give you at that time?"
She might as well ask about this suddenly, Yu Qingyan's face stiffened, "Three liang."
Chu Yunli suddenly realized.
Let's put it this way, the dowry purchased by the Lu family for their daughter only totaled two taels of silver. The Li family paid three taels, so it's no wonder that Yu Qingyan was tempted.
"I will collect money from the Li family. I really want to help you." Yu Qingyan said again, "Think about it, three taels of silver is a lot. Since they offered so much to ask me to help persuade them, it shows that they are solid.
Also, in my opinion, even if they are willing to pay you, they can't let you go."
Hearing this, Chu Yunli raised his eyebrows, "Does that mean that if they can let me go, they should buy a pack of medicine and poison me to death?"
Yu Qingyan: "..."
She looked helpless and said, "Qiu Niang, I find that you are very straightforward now and you can't speak properly."
"It depends on who you are talking about." She was still willing to talk to the Lu family and the Chu family mother and son. Chu Yunli raised her hand to pour tea and handed over a cup, "You came today just to let me comfort you, right?
"
Yu Qingyan smiled bitterly. If she really waited for this person to comfort her, she would probably be angry to death.
She took out a box from her sleeve and said, "I heard that you are getting married. I may not be able to come back then. I will come back today and give you a gift by the way."
"You two are quarreling over the money, so don't use the gifts. Don't go back and start fighting again." Chu Yunli said with a half-serious smile without moving the box.
Yu Qingyan choked and said helplessly, "I will give you a gift even if I fight, won't you be touched?"
Chu Yunli stretched out her hand and pushed it back, "I can't bear it. Besides, whether I live well or not depends on your gift. I know your intentions. Take this and return it."
Yu Qingyan looked gloomy and took back the box, "Actually, I was surprised to hear that you remarried so soon. I'm really happy for you, but also a little worried."
"What are you worried about?" Chu Yunli was very interested. You know, since she moved out of Li's house, except for two encounters with this person, she has never taken the initiative to come to see her. Even if she came to visit today, she saw that she had remarried and thought of her again.
For this sisterly love, just sending congratulatory gifts and blessings is enough. Worrying and the like are probably a bit redundant.
Yu Qingyan sighed, "Chu Ju is a man of great literary talent. How can you talk about it in the future if you don't know Chinese characters? Also, he is a high-ranking Juren and can become an official at any time. Then he will be an official. When the time comes, the officialdom will need him.
Are you able to do the work of Madam's socializing? Furthermore, you are remarried, and now that your love is strong, he will naturally not care about it, but if one day his feelings fade away and he sees Xuan'er again... the Li family's side is
First married couple, don't you just change your heart when you change your mind, and you won't hold back when it comes to fighting. You are not in the right family, how can you be happy? I don't dare to think about it, you are my only friend, I really want you to be well.
.”
The words were sincere and all aspects were taken into consideration. Chu Yunli held her chin up and said, "What should I do according to your wishes?"
Yu Qingyan looked at her expression without any trace, "If you are still willing to listen to me, don't get married." After a pause, she continued, "There are so many men in the world, and Chu Feng is not the only one. Slow down.
Pick slowly and you will always find the right one.”
suitable?
For Chu Yunli, there is no more suitable person than Chu Feng.
She married Chu Feng, and both the Lu family and the Chu family were very happy. As for the others, most of them were upset, but they didn't care. After all, even if Chu Feng didn't marry her, he didn't know who he would marry.
As for those who didn't want her to marry, apart from those girls who liked Chu Feng, there was probably only one Li Chaowen left.
Thinking of the things that Yu Qingyan and the Li family did...Chu Yunli smiled half-heartedly, "You came here to say these things, how much money did the Li family give you?"
Hearing this, the tea cup in Yu Qingyan's hand slipped. She quickly held it and managed a smile, "What did you say?"
"After you left the Li family, I never interacted with them again." She calmed down, her face remained as usual, with a vague anger in her eyes, "Maybe you think I have ulterior motives for saying these things, because I followed the Li family's instructions.
?”
Chu Yunli asked, "Isn't it?"
Yu Qingyan: "..." After hearing her question, wouldn't a normal person feel that she had been wronged and then apologize?
She said firmly, "Of course not!" She stood up angrily, "I'm really doing it for your own good, but you don't appreciate it, but you still doubt me!"
Chu Yunli sneered, "Do things with money? It's not like you've never done it before. How can you pretend to be a sister to me?"
Yu Qingyan looked pale, "Whether you believe it or not, I didn't mean to harm you." After saying that, he turned around and left.
deliberately?
If it’s not intentional, it’s just unintentional!
Seeing her going out without forgetting to take the "congratulatory gift", Chu Yunli shook his head inwardly and said loudly, "Go back and tell Li Chaowen that if you are a man, you should be more generous. Even after we divorced, you still hold on to me. Watch out for me.
Get drunk and go find him."
Yu Qingyan paused slightly as she walked out, feeling strange no matter how she heard these words.
What kind of threat is a woman going to a man drunk?
She thought of something and asked in shock, "Did you inflict those injuries on him?"
Chu Yunli blinked, "You pissed me off. I beat people regardless of gender. From now on, you have to think more carefully before collecting money."
Under her playful and penetrating gaze, Yu Qingyan could no longer hold on and ran away.
Unexpectedly, Li Chaowen actually tried to prevent her from getting married. If Lu Qiuniang cared about Yu Qingyan, she would seriously consider her "kind words". But now it's Chu Yunli, and she doesn't believe anyone and doesn't persuade anyone.
use.
I was finally angry, so I made some inquiries and learned that Li Chaowen had now enlisted in the army and was training in a military camp outside the city. He would come back once every ten days.
She specially bought wine on the day he came back and waited outside the city. When she saw the Li family's carriage, she stepped forward to stop it and got in smelling of alcohol.
Li Chaowen lay down in the carriage, protecting his head and face. He was punched and kicked by her. He always felt that her hands and feet were like iron bones and hurt when they hit him. He never thought that after practicing for so long, he could not struggle under her hands. He roared angrily.
, "Why are you crazy?"
"Yu Qingyan told me that you asked her to persuade me not to marry." Chu Yunli stepped on his back hard, "I don't care if you marry again, you don't care if I marry or not."
Li Chaowen's eyes were red with anger, "How could she tell you?"
Damn, it’s really him!
Chu Yunli kicked him hard in the face, causing him to scream, then jumped out of the carriage and said viciously, "If you mess with me again, I'll beat you to death!"
