Zhang Huiniang and Song Dachuan both sat in front of Lianyi, frowning at the white gauze on their daughter's face, and finally couldn't help but ask:
"Lianyi, what's wrong with your face?"

Ripple felt there was no need to hide it, so she took off the white gauze covering her face and exposed the injury on her cheek.

"ripple!"

Zhang Huiniang exclaimed, and then her eyes turned red. Song Dachuan, who had always been calm, swayed, stood up with his hands on the edge of the table, and said in a deep voice:
"Lianyi, is this the price you pay for leaving the Dong family?"

"My poor daughter, what will you do in the future?"

Zhang Huiniang's tears fell instantly.

"I'll go find them! They don't bully people like that!"

Song Dachuan gritted his teeth and stood up, knocking down the wooden stool. It was obvious that he was very angry.

When Lianyi saw the two of them like this, she immediately grabbed Song Dachuan and patted Zhang Huiniang's shoulder to comfort her:
"Mom, dad, don't get excited. This is my plan to get out. I didn't take good care of myself after I was injured, so it looks scary, but it didn't actually hurt me at all."

"Really?"

Zhang Huiniang asked with tears in her eyes after hearing what Lianyi said.

"Really, what did I lie to my mother for? When I raise her, won't you see it!"

Ripple said with a smile.

"Girl, tell me and your mother, what is going on?"

Song Dachuan was still able to hold his own. After being pulled by Lianyi to sit down again, he couldn't wait to ask.

"Well, it started when I returned to the Dong Mansion. I pretended that you agreed to me being a dowry maid, but you wanted to sign a living contract."

Wait for Lianyi to tell everything that happened in the Dong Mansion in the past three months.

Both of them were amazed after hearing this. They didn't expect that it was a Dong Mansion with so many twists and turns.

"My daughter has been pitiful. She stayed in that cannibalistic place for two years and raised most of her family. In the end, she had to work hard to disfigure her appearance before she could return home."

After Zhang Huiniang heard this, she became more and more aware of her daughter's difficulty, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.

"Lianyi, we have suffered so much for you over the years. You always report good things but not bad things. We thought you could have a good meal at Dong Mansion, but we didn't expect you to be so cautious. Now that you are back, we will take good care of you at home. , if the injury on your face cannot be healed, dad will support you for the rest of your life!"

Song Dachuan rarely said a long sentence.

"Okay, as long as my parents don't dislike me as an old girl who can't get married."

Lianyi said with a smile and wiped Zhang Huiniang's tears.

"You are my daughter, Song Dachuan. I don't dislike you, and no one has the right to dislike you!"

Song Dachuan said immediately.

After the business was finished, Zhang Huiniang and Song Dachuan were in the mood to look at the things piled up in the main room. "Lianyi, I didn't pay attention just now, why did you buy so many things?"

Zhang Huiniang asked.

"Part of this is a reward from the young lady. I have served her well. In order to have a good reputation, she has to show off. They are all practical cloth and rice noodles. They are enough for our family of four to make clothes. The rice and noodles are also Don't waste it, make it for your little brother, and keep him healthy while he's still young.

The Dong government hired an ox cart to transport me, so I purchased some things in the town. I sent some snacks and tea to my grandfather’s family. There was also a piece of red cloth, just in time for my brother-in-law to get a wife, and a jar of oil. On weekdays, It’s for cooking. The weather was too hot, so I didn’t dare to buy more meat, so I just bought one.”

Lianyi didn't mind the trouble and told her one by one what the things she bought were used for and how much money she spent. She gave the remaining two taels of silver directly to Zhang Huiniang for her family use.

Lianyi didn't say anything about the other 45 taels of silver. She was afraid that if it leaked out, it would attract Aunt Dong. Moreover, she had other great uses for the silver, so she didn't mention it for the time being.

When Huzi woke up the next day and knew that his sister was back, he happily let Lianyi hug him, and Lianyi took over the task of taking care of Huzi, which made Huiniang much more relaxed.

Huzi was very interested in the white gauze on Lianli's face, and always wanted to pick it off, but he couldn't touch it, which made him scream out in anxiety, and he became more energetic.

Huzi was weak since birth. He is almost three years old now, but he can only crawl and sit. He has no strength in his legs and cannot stand up. Naturally, he has not learned to walk, so except for sleeping, he is not in Huiniang's arms all day long. , right on her back.

The first thing Lianyi did when he came back was to absorb spiritual energy, and then dredge his little brother's meridians and condition his body bit by bit. This was a hard work.

Firstly, the spiritual energy here is pitifully thin. Secondly, Huzi is too young and his meridians are also very fragile, so he cannot be impatient and must take his time. Fortunately, he is young, so he has plenty of time.

On the third day after Lianyi returned to Zhangjiacun, everyone in the village knew that she was sent back by her master because she had an injury on her face. However, her master was very considerate and rewarded her with many things, so she came back decently.

The next day, a matchmaker came to Lianyi's door, wanting to propose marriage to Lianyi. She said that the man liked her because she worked as a servant in a wealthy family, so he must be knowledgeable and knowledgeable, so he wanted to marry her and go back to head the family.

Zhang Huiniang couldn't help but ask which family's son-in-law, the matchmaker waved her handkerchief and said:

"He is a boy from Songjia Village. He has only one mother in the family. There is a sacrificial field in the village for him to study, and he is expected to take the scholar exam next year! When your girl gets married, she will be the master of the house. She doesn't have to do anything, just take care of the boy's daily life. Just live."

Before the matchmaker finished speaking, Zhang Huiniang's face dropped. She was the daughter-in-law of Songjia Village, so she didn't know who the Tong Sheng the matchmaker was talking about was!
He is already forty, and he is still squeezing his only wife on the pretext of taking the merit test. This is because his wife has only been living for a few years, so she has set her sights on Ripples and wants to do Ripples' dowry. It is really disgusting. She Just as he was about to curse, Lianyi raised the curtain of the bedroom and walked out.

"Matchmaker Liu, our family may not be able to afford the child you are talking about. To tell you the truth, I was originally going to be Miss Dong Er's room maid, but because I hurt my appearance, I begged the lady to let me go home. of."

As Lianyi spoke, she pulled off the white gauze on her face without any warning, exposing her injured face to Matchmaker Liu's eyes.

"Ouch! Oh my God!!"

Matchmaker Liu was caught off guard. Her heart was so frightened that she jumped up from her stool.

"Mother Liu, our Song family has always been upright and would not deceive our neighbors. My appearance is indeed a hindrance. If Mr. Tong Sheng of the Song family reaches high school, I may not even dare to leave the house.

Even if he doesn't despise me, as a real wife, I can't even do the most basic things to treat people, so why marry me?
I also don’t want to ruin Matchmaker Liu’s reputation. Just tell Tong Sheng of the Song family the truth about the reason for my refusal! "

Lianyi said while wiping her tears, which made Matchmaker Liu feel relieved, and then left with a sigh. Although she regretted not being able to earn the matchmaker's money, at least she would not ruin her reputation, so she did not go out. She spoke ill of Lianyi, and when someone asked her about it, she just vaguely said that Lianyi's appearance was damaged and that she might not be suitable for marriage.

Soon the words spread to several nearby villages. Some were regretful, while others were gloating about the misfortune. Old Song was even more happy to eat an extra bowl of rice to support himself. (End of chapter)
