Chapter 10 Xiang’s awakening
"The Qin family has brought blessings to the banker, which is equivalent to happiness. If they recover from their illness, they will be grateful to the Qin family. Otherwise, what is the difference between them and white-eyed wolves?"

At this time, the Yang family went to the room, and everyone in the room was talking excitedly.

"Bah, I said she was a restless woman. As soon as she left our house, she hurriedly moved into the banker's house. I think they must have had an affair a long time ago."

"That's right, you look so ugly and you flirt with men, it's shameless!"

Qingyun and Qingting lowered their heads and did not defend Qin.

"It's too late to say anything now. I heard that the household registration has been changed."

"Don't let me see her, otherwise I will have to tear her apart. How dare he, Zhuang Shitou, want my son's woman? You are really looking for death. You are deliberately trying to make trouble with my family."

"Mom, we're not angry. As long as she is like that, even if the banker wants her, she has suffered hardships in the past and will never be able to turn over in her lifetime."

It was Yang Shaohua who spoke, with a sour taste in his tone.

Although the Zhuang family is poor, they can't stand the fact that Zhuang Shi is young and strong. At this age, Mr. Qin has such an appearance, and he is somewhat satisfied that he can find someone like this.

"Humph, you really gave her an advantage. You shouldn't have let her leave in the first place."

"Do you think your son wants her to leave? I'm really not used to being without her for the past two days. This is Miss Huang's intention. How can my son be capable?"

"One day she will fall into my hands, leaving her unable to live or die." Zhou said through gritted teeth.

"My son's future is not settled yet, so you should be more honest during this period."

"Just let her go like this?"

"I married Miss Huang first, and used the Huang family's connections to get a job in the Yamen. Now that I have the status of an official, isn't it easy to manipulate a village woman?"

"Then let her jump around for a few more days?"

No matter how the villagers slander, the relationship between Zhuang Shi and Qin Yue has been determined. Qin Yue is the true mistress of the Zhuang family!
At dawn, the villagers went to the village chief's house to inquire.

"Village chief, what's going on with the banker?"

Hu Hai smoked a dry cigarette and glanced disdainfully at the villagers who were doing good things:
"You don't even have enough to eat and you still want to meddle in other people's business?"

"Isn't this just out of curiosity? Can you just tell me about it?"

"What's going on? Just like the bankers, they are so poor that they can't even afford a wife. The Qin family just got married and have no place to go. They just make do with each other. It's not obvious."

"Yes, his family is not only poor, but also has two old people who are very poor, so this is the only way."

Now I felt at peace, and I attributed this incident to the banker's poverty. The village chief was smart and didn't want to get into trouble, so he didn't tell anyone about the ginseng dug by the Qin family, let alone his own family.

He was optimistic about Zhuang Shi and Qin Yue, thinking that he could get some benefits from them in the future.

Seeing how little money was left in the space, Qin Yue reluctantly picked up the bamboo basket and went to the back mountain with the machete.

Zhuang Shi gave his parents medicine and then treated the two trees in the yard.

If Mrs. Qin wants to be strong, she also needs to be good. The doors, windows, tables, and benches at home need to be replaced with new ones, and the house needs to be renovated.

The collapsed areas of the fence also need to be repaired, the mud bricks that have fallen off the house walls need to be repaired, and the stoves need to be rebuilt. It’s really a lot of work to do all the math.

Thinking that Mrs. Qin was still sleeping in the woodshed, she could put her work behind her, but it was important to give her a bed first.

I came to the firewood shed and looked at the size of the place, then turned around and looked at the corner of the wall. If I want to free the firewood, I have to build a strong shed first.

In the morning, we set up the shed, cleaned up the woodshed, and marked the lines, preparing to dig soil and make mud bricks in the afternoon.

Qin didn't come back at noon. He steamed egg custard for his parents and ate steamed buns and pickles for himself. He had no time to spare for a while.

When Qin Yue came back, she saw mud bricks drying all over the courtyard. Today's harvest was not big, but it was still a full harvest. She sat on the bench and looked at the mud bricks and asked.

"What are you doing?"

Zhuang Shi brought her a bowl of boiled water: "I'll clean up the woodshed and give you an earthen bed. You can't always sleep on the haystack."

"Oh, where will I sleep tonight?"

"Sleep in my room first. I'll share a kang with my parents. It'll be convenient for taking care of them at night." Zhuang Shi quickly set out the food. When the two of them sat down to eat, there was movement in the room.

"Stone, stone, where are you?"

Hearing the weak cry, Zhuang Shi stood up ecstatically and rushed into the room with several vigorous steps. Xiang opened his eyes and tilted his head to look at him.

"Stone?"

He stepped forward and held Xiang's hand: "Mom, you finally woke up."

"What happened to your father?"

"After you fainted, my father also fainted in a hurry. It's been several days."

"How many days?"

"Yes, dad's illness is more serious than yours, and it may take a day or two before he wakes up."

Only then did Mrs. Xiang remember that she had fainted and asked hurriedly:
"Mom knows that our family has no money and is in debt. My son, are you not allowed to do stupid things?"

"It's a long story."

Zhuang Shi looked back at Qin in the yard. She was eating leisurely.

"Come on, what are you looking at?"

He took a deep breath and reluctantly told the truth.

"It's like this..."

Zhuang Shi fell ill with his two elders and was unable to treat him. The Qin family separated. He passed by Zhuang's house and found out about the matter. He went to the mountains to collect medicine and gave them medicine. When the two elders' condition improved, he and Qin got married. It was simple. After narrating it briefly, Mrs. Xiang almost fainted.

"You, you, what do you want me to say about you? I'm so angry! I have to wait for my mother to wake up no matter what."

Mrs. Xiang looked excited and burst into tears.

"It's too late. Seeing that both you and dad are dying, my son has no other choice but to save you."

"So, our family has been sold to her?"

Mr. Xiang is a person who is obsessed with saving face and committing crimes. Not to mention, he has a lot of etiquette.

Qin Yue likes to be free and unfettered. She and Xiang are completely different people.

Zhuang Shi knew the Xiang family best, and naturally he would not let his mother take advantage of the Qin family. As long as he recognized the master-servant relationship, I believe that the Xiang family would not dare to cause trouble to Qin Yue.

I have to say, he thought too much!
"Mom, secretly we are master and servant, and openly she is our daughter-in-law. You don't have to worry about others making irresponsible remarks. Just take good care of yourself."

"You unfilial son, your father and I would have died, but you are still alive. You have the hands and feet to do anything. If you want to marry, you have to marry a young lady. Why are you ruining yourself like this?"

"Mom, don't you know what's going on in our family? Not to mention you and dad, there just isn't one. With our few shabby houses, a few acres of wasteland, and more than 20 taels of foreign debt, who will marry me? Besides, who will marry me? , you still don’t know who the Qin family is? Except that she is older, she is a good woman that you can’t find even with a lantern, and I will not lose anything by marrying her. "

"If you do this, how will our family stand up in the village in the future?"

"They don't interact with the villagers. They are nothing but the Sun family. My son doesn't care."

"But at her age, can she still give birth to children for you?"

"Mom, my life is gone. Why talk about children? Let's live our lives first."

Mrs. Xiang was so angry that she wanted to raise her hand to give him a hand, but she was so weak that her eyes turned black whenever she moved.

Zhuang Shi quickly went to the kitchen and brought over the prepared egg custard.

"Mom, let's eat something first."

"I'm almost mad at you. What can I eat?"

But when she smelled the scent of eggs, she still swallowed in dismay.
