Chapter 15 The Stepmother Is Here

Chapter 15 The Stepmother Is Here
As soon as she finished speaking, the expressions of the people around her suddenly changed.

Who doesn't know that Panlong Mountain in Shanghe Village is a geomantic treasure?
It is said that the senior official of Shanghe Village lived in Panlong Mountain for a period of time.

But today's Panlong Mountain is not a place they can go, not because someone bought the mountain, but because there is a black bear in the mountain.

Once a hunter went into the mountains to hunt, and he never came back.

Fortunately, this mountain is separated from Shanghe Village by a spacious river. As long as you don't go to the mountain, there is no danger on weekdays, so there is no movement from the government.

"Little girl, did you really go to the mountains?" Someone frowned and sighed, "You really want money and don't care about your life!"

Tang Mi sighed, but remained silent.

She only found out a few days ago that Tang Shu ran to the foot of Panlong Mountain when he went to dig pigweed.

Although Tang Shu is young, he is very courageous.

Not only went to Panlong Mountain to dig pigweed, but also went to the foot of the mountain to gather a lot of grass for Tang Mi, saying that it was for her to weave things.

It's not like she's lying.

Later Tang Shu's actions were seen by the villagers, and Tang Dashi scolded Tang Shu anxiously and worriedly, and Tang Shu agreed not to go to Panlong Mountain anymore.

The people around saw that she was silent, and they also had a clue in their hearts.

If it weren't for the fact that the family really couldn't open the pot, who would risk their lives to do this?

There were people who wanted to ask where Cao Chang was at Panlong Mountain, but they were all stared at by some vendors, and Tang Mi also took this opportunity to slip away.

This time, Tang Mi still didn't go to the pier first.

She wandered around the town before reaching a cloth shop deep in an alley.

The color of the cloth displayed in this cloth shop is a bit pale, and there is not much traffic around, so the business is naturally not as good as the shop outside.

Tang Mi chose a piece of cloth with a slightly calmer color, bargained with the shopkeeper several times, and finally bought half a piece.

There is an old custom in Xiahe Village, women should dress better when they are pregnant, so that the mother and child will be safe when they give birth.

Tang Mi also heard about this novel custom from Peng Cui.

Although she doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, she hopes that her loved ones who treat her well will be safe and sound. In ancient times, unlike modern times, giving birth to a child is like walking through the gates of hell.

What she is doing now is doing as the Romans do.

When leaving the cloth village, Tang Mi also met an old woman selling cloth shoes at the entrance of the alley.

The grandmother's craftsmanship is good, and the stitches of Na's cloth shoes are even more fine and dense. Although they don't look very good-looking, they are very strong.The most important thing is that the price is not expensive, a pair of adults is only [-] Wen, and a pair of children is [-] Wen.

Tang Mi bought a lot, so the grandmother gave her a little cheaper.

After buying these things, she will only have [-] Wen left in her hand.

"Uncle, bring me meat for ten renminbi and bones for five renminbi!"

Seeing her generosity, the butcher stall owner even sent her some pigs into the water.

Although there is no meat on the bones, there is a lot of weight.

Tang Mi put the meat and bones into the basket, and bought two more sesame seed cakes before going to the pier.

This time, the people on the pier came and went in a hurry, unlike the last time, when she came, someone would talk to her.

From a distance, a large three-story ship could be seen docked at the pier, and there were several government officials standing around it, as if they were transporting something valuable.

Tang Mi went to inquire and found out that the lord from Shanghe Village was about to come back to worship the ancestors, and the surrounding officials came to make arrangements in advance in order to flatter the lord.

Tang Mi raised her hand to her forehead, looked at the big ship in the distance, and was slightly absent-minded.

"Little girl!" The aunt who sells coarse grain steamed buns on the pier said to her, "Don't wait, the work on the pier is busy until late!"

Tang Mi smiled sweetly at her aunt, "Thank you, auntie!"

Fortunately, she had agreed with Tang Gu before that if there was too much work on the pier, then she would go back to the village first.

.........

After noon, Tang Dashi rested for a while, and then went to the bamboo forest behind with a hoe.

He can't move his right hand, but his left hand is still flexible.

If the family wants to raise pigs, it is natural to repair the pigsty.

Pig feces are too smelly. If the pigsty is built in front of the house, the smell will definitely spread far and wide, so he discussed with Jiang and decided to build the pigsty in the backyard.

"My son's father!" Jiang Shi came over with a water bottle, and frowned, "You forgot what Doctor Wen told you!"

Tang Dashi smiled embarrassingly, "I didn't do any heavy work, I just cleaned up the place! I can't lie down all the time, my bones are going to be moldy!"

These days the kids have been telling him to rest, and he is about to have a problem.

Seeing Tang Mi go to the town to sell things early this morning, Tang Dashi felt somewhat uncomfortable. If he had some skills, his daughter would not be forced to show his face.

Thinking of this, he said to Jiang Shi again, "You should sit in the front yard and pay attention to the fire on the small stove in the kitchen!"

"When Xiao Mi comes back, let her eat something to fill her stomach first!"

As he said, Jiang's eyes also looked at the front yard.

Although it is not too far to go to the town, how can parents not worry when the child goes out?
"Orchid, orchid..."

An old woman's voice sounded in the front yard. When Jiang heard this voice, her smile faded away.

"I'll go and have a look!" Jiang put the kettle on a clean stone on one side, and walked quickly towards the front yard.

As soon as Tang Dashi heard the voice, he knew that it was Jiang's embarrassing stepmother who had come.

He was not in the mood to continue working, so he went to the front yard with the water bottle.

……

"Mother!" Mrs. Jiang went to the front yard and led her stepmother Jiang into the house, and poured her another glass of water before asking, "Why are you here?"

Jiang Shi was already old, but the clothes she was wearing were still a little fresh, which seemed out of place with her yellowed appearance.

She raised her hand to gather her hair, as if pointing her finger at the silver hairpin on the bun, "Of course I came to see you!"

"Before you sent a letter to Laohugou saying that you were pregnant. At that time, there was something at home, and it was not convenient for your father and I to come here! Now that the family is free, I will send you something to make up for you!"

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Jiang lifted the basket in her hand, revealing several large sweet potatoes inside.

Jiang Shi is not surprised by this.

This stepmother does not go to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing, so she must have something to come to find herself.

"Of course, I have something to discuss with you!" Sure enough, seeing her daughter not answering, Jiang said, "Your elder brother is going to continue!"

This time Jiang was startled, "Whose girl is it?"

Jiang Jin is the child of Jiang and the previous man. He changed his surname after Jiang remarried to Jiang's family. He has no blood relationship with Jiang's father.

Jiang Jin married a wife before, it is said that she was bought from the county, and she was a maid named Luzhi from a wealthy family.

Luzhi ran away a few times when she got married, but later Jiang Jin broke her legs and settled down.

At the beginning, the Jiang family and the Jiang family had a very unpleasant quarrel, and it was also because the Jiang family let Lu Zhi go.

When Mrs. Jiang got married, she wanted to take Luzhi away, but Luzhi rejected her, saying that she didn't want to hurt her, and told her not to return to the village for the rest of her life.

Because Luzhi knew that Jiang's mother also bought it back.

When Mrs. Jiang gave birth to Tang Shu, she heard the news of Lu Zhi's death.

It is said that Lvzhi jumped into the river with her two sons, and even the dead body was never found.

The Jiang family was angry and had no choice but to think about marrying Jiang Jin again, but nothing happened for many years.

"It's your little girl from Uncle Liu's family!" Jiang patted Jiang's hand triumphantly, "Your Uncle Liu said that your eldest brother is a nice person, so he is willing to marry his daughter over!"

"However, what you mean, Uncle Liu, is that he is still young, so he also wants to marry another one!"

Jiang's heart was flustered, her voice trembling, "He wants to marry? Who?"

"Just your ugly girl!" Jiang said with a smile, "Your Uncle Liu said that he is willing to give three taels of silver as a dowry gift to marry your little Mi!"
