"The Zhao family is a well-known wealthy family, and there is a girl who is the concubine of Mr. Liu's son. If they really want to take revenge, do you think you can escape?" Yu Tongxi looked cautious, "I came to you with good intentions.
I am here to discuss solutions, not to quarrel with you."
Chu Yunli crossed his arms, "You obviously came here to ask me for the prescription."
Yu Tongxi coughed twice uncomfortably, "Our two bun-selling businesses are indeed too close together. Either you sell me the recipe, or you give me some compensation and I'll do other business."
Chu Yunli was speechless for a long time. She had not seen such a thick-skinned person for a long time.
She turned around and walked in, "It doesn't matter to me whether you sell buns or not. As for the Zhao family, if they bully me, I will risk my life to fight for it. There is nothing to discuss with you."
If the Zhao family really wants to take revenge, Yu Tongxi... It's not that Chu Yunli underestimates him, he really can't deal with it.
Chu Yunli walked in. Outside, Yu Tongxi looked unwilling, but he could only leave in anger.
The two ladies lived in the back street. When they saw Yu Tongxi leaving, they couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "What is he doing here?"
Chu Yunli smiled and shook his head, "I thought I took the Yu family's prescription and wanted to settle a score with me."
In fact, as soon as Chu Yunli's bun shop opened, many people thought that she had taken the Yu family's recipe. Because of this, many people were unwilling to come over and try her taste.
This is very self-evident. Chu Yunli can make Yujia's taste, but Yu Tongxi cannot make hers taste by steaming it.
In fact, many people were secretly waiting for Yu Tongxi to come and cause trouble for her.
Unfortunately, those people will probably be disappointed.
When you live on the street, you can’t have any secrets. Chu Yunli had no intention of hiding it. By the next morning, many people knew that Yu Tongxi had been here. Moreover, he accused his first wife of using his recipe, but
After eating two steamed buns, I left in despair.
What does this prove?
It proves that Chen Chunhua has no recipe for home use at all. Otherwise, could Yu Tongxi spare her?
In the next two days, Chu Yunli's business became better. Basically, everyone who bought steamed buns would become repeat customers.
Another afternoon, Hanxiu came to the door again, "Did you really not take her money?"
Chu Yunli didn't want to pay attention to her. Although it was true that she took the money from Hanqing, she caused Chen Chunhua's family to be ruined, she was jailed, she received so many slaps, and she was given dumb drugs.
Adding up all the items, Chu Yunli had no regrets in taking her hundreds of taels of silver. "You said I took it, but where is the evidence? Don't talk nonsense without evidence. That is slander and will lead to conviction."
Hanxiu was a little annoyed, "I've already asked about it. Before you moved out, you stayed in Hanqing's house for two nights. Do you dare to swear to God that you didn't take any of her money?"
"Why?" Chu Yunli raised his eyebrows.
Hanxiu Zhengse said, "I just want to help her get her money back!"
Chu Yunli smiled and looked her up and down, "Speaking of which, I once heard Hanqing say that she still has some banknotes at her sister's place. Isn't it at your place?"
Hearing this, Hanxiu got angry and asked, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Chu Yunli suddenly said, "No? Or did you originally want to embezzle her money? If you want to get to the bottom of it, you must know where the money I paid to buy the yard came from. Do you suspect that the money is hers? You look for these
Is the money for her or for yourself?"
A trace of panic flashed in Hanxiu's eyes, "I don't know what you are talking about. If you don't admit it, I will ask her to accuse you of stealing!"
"Go ahead!" Chu Yunli waved her hand, "Don't come here again. My family won't do your business."
The next morning, Chu Yunli carried the food box and went to the prison again.
After not seeing each other for a month, Yu Fu has lost a lot of weight and his hair is messy. There is no medicine for the wounds on his body. He has not healed yet. He is lying on the ground and cannot move at all. It is summer and the prison is sultry. He is covered in flies.
.
At first glance, I thought the man was dead, with only a ball of rotten flesh left.
When he heard the guard calling him, Yu Fu raised his head and saw Chu Yunli carrying a food box. He said in surprise, "Mom, you've come to see me." His eyes fell on the food box and he couldn't pull it off, "You
What did you bring for me?"
Chu Yunli walked over and squatted down. There was a strange and unpleasant smell in her breath. She took out a plate of buns and placed them in front of him, "Eat slowly."
Yu Fu grabbed the buns and wolfed them down, biting off most of them in one bite. He choked and rolled his eyes. After a few breaths, he finished the whole plate of buns.
He looked at Chu Yunli's food box again, "Mom, are there any more?"
The food box is double-layered, and the bottom layer has not been opened yet. Since you are here, you can't just bring one plate, there must be some.
Chu Yunli nodded, "There is more."
"However, I have to see Hanqing, this is hers!"
Speaking of Hanqing, Yu Fu's eyes were full of disgust, "What should I do for her? If it weren't for her flirting with others, our family would be fine now. Give it to me quickly, mother. If you don't come to see me, I haven't eaten meat for a month.
Already."
How long has it been since I didn't marry anyone who wasn't your wife?
Chu Yunli didn't move, looked at his outstretched hand, and said quietly, "What happened to our family is not just Hanqing's fault, the culprit is you. If you didn't let her in, nothing like what happened later would happen.
thing."
Yu Fu was stunned.
"Mom, do you still blame me? I am your son, and you don't feel sorry for me, but you feel sorry for a bitch?" Yu Fu lay on the railing and said angrily, "Even if I did something wrong, it was you who taught me!"
When these words came out, Chu Yunli felt a little uncomfortable, and her breathing was blocked. This was Chen Chunhua's emotion.
She did regret that when her parents-in-law doted on Yu Fu, she was forced to do so out of filial piety and did not speak out to stop her. Besides, she was busy at the bun shop all day and had no time to spend time with her son. She must have thought that if she accepted the child's upbringing, Yu Fu would be better.
This may not necessarily be the case.
If Chu Yunli could have come ten years earlier, he would have taught Yu Fu a good education, but it was too late. The person in front of him couldn't even distinguish the most basic right from wrong. When something went wrong, he would only blame others. He had no idea.
He is just a heartless bastard, it is best to reinvent the wheel.
Chu Yunli put the food box away and asked, "Has your father visited you?"
Yu Fu was dejected, "No."
"He remarried a few days ago, and the bride is his wife. He told me frankly that he remarried just to have a son." Chu Yunli said this and looked at the person in front of him, "Back then, you knew he had someone outside.
, why don’t you tell me?”
Yu Fu asked, "Aren't all men like this?"
Chu Yunli: "..."
She regretted it, even if she wanted to find Hanqing, she shouldn't have come here, it would hurt her eyes and heart.
Chu Yunli picked up the food box and said, "You can take care of yourself."
Yu Fu yelled loudly behind him, and later the guards came over to scold him, but Chu Yunli never looked back.
Sitting in the corner holding her knees affectionately, when she saw Chu Yunli approaching, she quickly reached the railing door and said, "Please let me go. I don't want to live here anymore. There are rats, insects, and lice here. I will
Crazy...wuwuwu..."
By the end of the story, I was crying.
"She's pretending." Mrs. Zhou said coolly, "I think she's adapted well. Don't let her fool you."
A heartfelt cry.
"Mom, what do you have to do to save me?"
According to Chu Yunli's true feelings, he would not save her no matter what, but there was no need to tell her this. Seeing her kneeling down and begging for mercy, Chen Chunhua should be quite satisfied, "Besides me, no one has come to see you.
?"
Confused and confused, "What do you want to ask?"
Mrs. Zhou added, "She is such a bad person that no one has ever seen her except you."
Chu Yunli glanced at Mrs. Zhou. At first she wanted someone to help her go and see her son. Now she replied that it was a sign of goodwill.
"Someone came to me and told me that I must pay you back your money." Chu Yunli stared closely at Hanqing's expression, "They also said that if I don't pay you back, you will sue me for theft."
Expressing surprise, "I don't have any money!"
Does she want to wait ten years before going out to find the box?
In any case, Chu Yunli understood that Hanxiu didn't know that she wanted money.
Since you don't know, then it's Hanxiu's own idea.
After coming here and knowing what he wanted to know, Chu Yunli put down the buns and said, "You guys can share the food."
After putting it down, she turned around and left.
Several people scrambled behind her. Ms. Zhou did not move, she said persistently, "Please help me look at my son, I beg you!"
Chu Yunli did not look back.
After leaving the prison, the breeze blew by, taking away the unpleasant smell. Chu Yunli breathed a sigh of relief and returned to his yard.
The days returned to calm, and it was August in the blink of an eye. Before anyone could deal with Yu's bun shop, he learned the news that Yi Niang was pregnant.
At this time, someone came to the door again.
He is a well-known matchmaker in the area who works for clients. He came to the door cheerfully and said, "Sister Chunhua, congratulations!"
Chu Yunli: "..." I'm so happy!
There was no one else in the house but herself. She knew without asking that the matchmaker was here to announce her marriage.
Matchmaker Li sat down with a smile, "The Yu family already has children, so you won't say anything if you marry an outsider. The Li family in the back street... Speaking of which, he is my cousin. He is forty this year and is in his prime. At home,
If you are willing to have both sons and daughters, filial piety and etiquette, they will definitely treat you as their own mother after entering the house..."
Seeing her chattering non-stop, Chu Yunli quickly interrupted, "Thank you for your kindness, I don't want to get married again!"
"Do you still want to guard the Yu family?" Matchmaker Li was surprised, "He is about to have a son, don't wait any longer. Life is so long, do you really want to die alone? When you get old in the future, who will provide for you until you die?
Woolen cloth?"
She thought more.
After being angry at first, Chu Yunli stopped being angry. She held her chin and asked, "Why should I marry again? Is it because it's hard to sell steamed buns or because it's hard to make money? I have to find a family to take care of me to feel comfortable?"
Matchmaker Li: "..."
"You can't say that. Husband and wife should support each other throughout life. My cousin is the most honest, a good worker, and he treats others well..."
Another series of boastful words.
Chu Yunli said solemnly, "I won't marry!"
Matchmaker Li continued, "He has three houses in his house, and the marriages of his children have been decided. If you don't want to live with them in the future, you can just ask him to move here."
Chu Yunli frowned, "I'm not getting married. Can you understand what I'm saying?"
Matchmaker Li finally noticed that her face was unhappy and her eyes were full of impatience.
In the job of a matchmaker, there are many strings involved in her life. No matter who she goes to, she will be treated with courtesy. She has not encountered such an attitude from Chu Yunli for a long time, and she was not happy at once, "I mean well."
kindness……"
Chu Yunli quickly interrupted, "Thank you, I don't need it."
Matchmaker Li still wanted to persuade, but Chen Jiqing came in from outside. He was a little surprised to see guests in the courtyard, but still said, "Aunt, something happened to the Yu family."
What a joy to hear!
Chu Yunli suddenly became interested, "What happened?"
Chen Jiqing ignored the matchmaker beside him. Anyway, what he was going to say was not a secret, and said, "The Yu family's buns killed people, and the sufferer went to the Yamen to file a complaint, and the Yamen took all the Yu family members to prison."
Chu Yunli was very surprised. Yu's steamed buns had been sold for nearly a hundred years, and they often caused diarrhea. How could they eat people to death?
What she immediately thought of was the revenge of the Zhao family mentioned by Yu Tongxi.
Matchmaker Li next to her asked in surprise, "How could this happen? Who died? When did you buy the buns? Have you asked a doctor to take a look..."
As expected, Bao inquired!
Chen Jiqing also knew that the matter was not simple, and said directly, "Auntie, my aunt and I have something to say."
Matchmaker Li: "..."
Being rejected twice in one day feels quite fresh.
"I'll come back when you're free."
Chu Yunli immediately said, "I'm not going to marry, so don't waste your time. Your own son can't be relied on, how can you expect your stepson?"
