PS: I'm sorry, I suffered from insomnia again last night, and I fell asleep almost at dawn. I got up late, so I posted a post late, sorry.

"I...hehe, I came here to see if you want a charcoal basin. It's so cold this day, and Brother Ning doesn't like to burn charcoal fires in his house. Don't be cold to Brother Wen." Yao sneered.

The fact that Yao's bullied Du Jinning several times made the whole village aware of it. Even though Zhang Hongwen kept his ears to the outside world and only read sage books, he had heard about it.

He was a simple-minded young man who hated such a woman deeply.At this moment, seeing that Mrs. Yao was eavesdropping outside without the slightest education, and then remembering that with Du Jinning's qualifications, he lived a life in dire straits in Du's house, and it was extremely difficult to even miss a book. Can't live.

He walked to the door and said loudly on purpose: "I really haven't seen it before. There are guests in my nephew's room, and my aunt eavesdropped on him at the door. The second room of the Du family is really well-bred. I really saw it today."

"Uh." Du Jinning, who planned to follow him out to see him off, was really dumbfounded when he heard this.

She didn't expect Zhang Hongwen, who seemed to be gentle and gentle, to be so good at making troubles.

Knowing that Zhang Hongwen was coming, Du Chensheng and Niu Shi, who were always paying attention to the movement in the west chamber, saw that it was not good, so they hurried out of the room.

"Second daughter-in-law, I think you are getting impatient, right? The two children are talking in the house, what's your business? Where are you going?" Niu shouted as soon as he went out.

"No... Didn't I just want to see if they want to make a charcoal fire? I'm really not eavesdropping." Yao's face was flushed red after being drunk by a half-grown child.

Niu Shi couldn't be more clear about Yao Shi's virtues.She herself was curious about what Zhang Hongwen came to see Du Jinning for, let alone Yao Shi.Now that Yao shi can come out to inquire about the news instead of him, it will also lose the face of the Du family if he is found out, so Niu shi naturally wants to protect one or two.

She waved her hand and said, "If you want charcoal fire, you can just ask in the yard. You have a lot of things to do, and you come to the door, just to misunderstand Brother Wen. That's all, all right, you hurry up and do your business." It's getting dark now, if you don't cook, do you still want to keep it so that others can't do it?"

As long as her mother-in-law doesn't punish him, Yao Shi will naturally be at ease, and ran back to the kitchen as if to escape, but he felt a little bit of resentment towards Du Jinning in his heart.

In the past few days, she has suffered so much anger because of Du Jinning, which is unprecedented in the past.She didn't think about what she did wrong, she just resented Du Jinning in her heart, thinking about how to make Du Jinning or Chen Shi be punished by Du Chensheng or Niu Shi.It would be great if it could bring them back to the way they were before.

Seeing Yao's behavior, Niu didn't give a word of punishment. Zhang Hongwen was deeply worried about Du Jinning's situation in this family, and wanted to help her more and more to achieve her goal of studying in Boyue Academy.

Du Jinning didn't care about these things, anyway, she was going to leave here with the third housemate, whether it was Niu Shi or Yao Shi, it didn't matter much to her what happened to them.As long as they don't come to torment her, mother, and sister now, they can act as demons as they like.

After seeing off Zhang Hongwen, she took a deep look at the room where Du Yunian lived.

This is what she fears the most.

For the past two days, she has been paying attention to Du Yunnian's movements.This guy owes the casino 30 taels of silver, and he needs to pay it back within five days. Where did the money come from?

Niu is stingy and powerful, spending an extra penny is as uncomfortable as cutting meat. If he knew that Du Yunian owed so much gambling debts, even his own son could chase and beat him all over the yard if he wanted to.Du Yunnian is also a coward, most likely he would not dare to ask his wife for money.No, it's been two days, and Niu hasn't reacted, so it can be seen that Du Yunian didn't reach out to her.

So, how did Du Yunnian deal with his debt?

What Du Jinning was most worried about was that Du Yunnian was targeting her elder sister, Du Fangfei.

Du Fangfei has reached the age of marriage, and she is not bad looking, with a well-proportioned and tall figure, and she is considered outstanding among the girls in this village.If Du Yunnian followed Niu's example and directly promised her marriage for money, or sold her directly to a brothel, it is very likely that he could get 30 taels in exchange.

So she kept watching Du Yunnian's movements.Helpless, this guy didn't know what his plan was. He didn't go to the county for the reason of recuperating. He stayed in the room for the past two days, and Yao Shi even had to send his meals in. He occasionally went out to use the toilet.Looking at his expression, Du Jinning didn't seem particularly anxious.

In this era, there are no mobile phones and computers, and you can contact people without going out, so she really doesn't understand what kind of medicine Du Yunnian sells in the gourd.

She went back to the room, closed the door, then slipped into Mrs. Chen's room, and watched Du Yunnian's movements through the gap in the window.

After a while, Mrs. Yao stuck out his head from the stove, looked in her direction, then crept over and entered her and Du Yunian's room.

Seeing this, Du Jinning immediately returned to his room, nimbly climbed onto the table, then gently slid down to the ground, and quickly ran to the window of Du Yunnian's room.

"...I didn't hear it clearly, but I heard the word 'study'." This is Yao's voice.

"Useless lady. You can't do anything well. What use do I need you for?"

When Yao was told this, he immediately became dissatisfied: "What's the use? Without me, who will deliver your meals, who will wash your clothes for you? Who will give birth to your son?"

"Stop talking about these useless things." Du Yunnian said in an extremely irritable tone, "Hurry up and cook, don't bother me here."

"I said Master, what happened to you these two days? It's like having a gunpowder keg in your arms, and it will explode at one o'clock."

"roll!"

After a while, there was a knock on the door over there, and it was believed that Yao Shi had gone out.Except for the sound of Du Yunnian panting, there was no movement in the room.

Du Jinning frowned, tiptoed back to his room, and went back into the room through the window.

Not long after, she heard noises from next door, and hurried to Chen's room to look out, just in time to see Du Yunnian's back disappearing at the gate.

Without hesitation, she immediately opened the door and went out, following Du Yunnian.

It was time for dinner, and there were constant voices from every household, but there were not many people walking outside.Du Yunnian went out directly from the east end, crossed the bridge, and walked in the direction of the ancestral hall.

Du Jinning followed him a few feet away, wondering where Du Yunian was going.

If you go from here to there, there will be no people, just a piece of farmland.If Du Yunian wanted to find someone, how would he go there?

Du Yunnian walked along the path for a while, and lingered on the ridge of the field for a while. Seeing that it was getting dark, he went back, entered the village, and returned to Du's house.

Du Jinning, who followed him all the way, wanted to scold his mother.

Damn, what the hell is this guy doing?
