Chapter 103 Drinking water can relieve hunger

With the idea of ​​leaving early and returning early, the two of them grabbed a few steamed buns from the kitchen, took a jar of hot sauce and hit the road.

With Xiao Shui following, Qin Yue was not worried.

Compared with before, Xiao Shui's Niu Gong was much stronger. Not to mention five, even ten were no match for it.

Mrs. Xiang was sitting in the courtyard, watching eagerly. Although she couldn't go out, she got what she wanted. Next time she asked for something else from her son, if she asked for too much, she would end up in vain, so she might as well ask for it slowly.

Qin Yue rolled her eyes and went back to the upper room.

Not to mention that Qin ignored Xiang, even Dong and Wang seldom said a word to her.

Madam Huang was just looking at the dishes, and Qin Yue ignored her, so she naturally wouldn't look down on Mrs. Xiang.

Today the old lady came over and brought a message to Qin Yue.

"Girl, Magistrate Xue has been imprisoned."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

The old lady glanced at Qin Yue with a meaningful look.

"I heard that the tax money and tax grains that could not be used to make up for the deficit were taken away by the prefect's policemen. He was imprisoned on the same day. I heard that they were sent to the capital after the autumn. This time things have become a big deal."

"It shouldn't be like being executed by the nine tribes, right?"

"His collusion with the officials above him was discovered by the secret guards around the emperor. All the witnesses and physical evidence are there. I'm afraid he may not be able to escape again this time."

"Retribution of sleepiness."

"It's a pity that his family has children inside."

Qin Yue lowered her head to do her work, but did not waste time chatting with her:

"Old madam, the two armies are fighting for their own masters. It sounds irrelevant to this matter, but if you are born in his family and enjoy his causes, you will naturally have to bear the consequences he brings. What do you think?"

"Oh~, I hope the emperor can take pity on the weak and let them go."

"You are very well informed."

Mrs. Huang smiled proudly, "Although the Huang family does not have a big backer in the capital, my shop is open there. What kind of news can't you want to inquire about?"

After saying this, she put her mouth close to Qin Yue's ear and whispered.

"The emperor's illness is cured." Then he winked at her.

"Well, of course there is no bad reason for me to take action."

"Girl, you are this one!" The old lady held out her thumb.

Qian didn't know the reason, so she pretended to be angry when she saw the two people talking in code.

"It's not like this. You just whisper and leave me alone."

"Haha, you don't understand, that's why I didn't tell you."

Qin Yue handed the cloth support to her and said, "Is this okay?"

When Qian saw it, he was extremely surprised: "Hey, it's only been a month and you can embroider like this. Not bad, not bad. If you practice for a while, you can catch up with me."

At this moment, Qin Yue turned her head inadvertently, and through the window, she saw Xiang going to the gate.

Rhubarb follows behind, and as long as she doesn't go out, it won't bite.

I saw Mrs. Xiang sneaking around like a thief, holding on to the door frame and looking outside, as if she was still talking in a low voice.

She stretched out her hand and made a stop gesture.

The two of them understood each other, and no one was talking. Qin Yue closed her eyes and listened carefully.

It took a long time to open her eyes. Seeing that her complexion was not good, Qian asked with concern:

"what happened?"

Qin Yue took a deep breath and tried to adjust her emotions:

"My mother-in-law, I don't know when, she got together with the Zhou family of the Yang family."

"What? How could she do this? Isn't this a slap in your face?"

"That's exactly what she wanted."

"What on earth does she want to do?"

Qin Yue chuckled: "What can she do? Just beat me down and she will take over the family."

"What's going on with you guys? I always feel weird and a little abnormal."

Qin Yue did not hide anything from the two of them and simply explained the whole story.

The two of them were stunned, how could a family be formed like this?

Oh my god, first time meeting.

Qin Yue said with a wry smile: "This is also a helpless move. The way it was done back then, ugh~"

"Then this clan is nothing." The old lady said angrily.

"That's right. I'm ungrateful. Instead, I always make things difficult for you and cause you trouble, you white-eyed wolf." "Back then, Shitou and I were not what we are now. If they directly proposed to write an IOU and pay it back to me in the future, I wouldn't let them sign it." The contract of betrayal, knowing that her virtues are just to contain her, is not an idea, the country is easy to change, the nature is hard to change, there is no end."

"Do you want to tell Shitou about this?"

"What you say is never as good as what you see. It seems that I have to think of a way. I can't let Mr. Xiang live in this house anymore."

Mrs. Huang looked out the window, clicked her tongue twice, and then shook her head.

"You have a venomous snake!"

In the afternoon, Shitou came back and bought a cart full of flowers, including peonies, chrysanthemums, and jasmine, all of which are grown in flower pots.

He and Zhuang Dashan moved several times and placed the flowers on both sides of the door of the upper house.

As soon as you enter and exit the house, you can see flowers everywhere.

Qin Yue stood at the door of the house, looking at the flowers on both sides, and smiled charmingly.

"It's beautiful, thank you!"

Shitou chuckled, then grabbed her hand and brought her a silver bracelet.

"It's a new model. The shopkeeper saw it at Warm House Winery that day. He gave it a [-]% discount and only charged the cost price."

Qin Yue raised her hand to take a look, "This style is good, I also like the flower shape, momoda!"

"Momoda!"

She chuckled. He had also learned this word and used it quite smoothly.

Mrs. Xiang watched angrily from the side. What she didn't like to see the most was two people kissing each other.

"Shitou, where are the things Mom asked you to buy?"

The smile disappeared, Shitou turned back to the bullock cart and took the clothes.

"Here, here are the satin clothes you asked for. One set cost five taels of silver. I also bought you a pair of shoes, also made of satin."

Only then did a smile appear on Mrs. Xiang's face. When she opened the package and took a look, she immediately sank.

"You know Mom likes sexy things, why did you buy something so tacky?"

"Mom, that's not called rustic, that's called solemn. Look at Sister Qian, she also wears clothes of this color."

"She is her, I am me!"

Qin Yue didn't hum, turned around and went back to the house, Shitou took a deep breath.

"You can have it if you want it. If you don't want it, forget it."

Then he turned around and entered the house, but Xiang was so angry that he wanted to throw away the clothes, but he couldn't part with them because they were made of satin after all.

He had no choice but to go back to the house in anger. Zhuang Dashan held his hands tightly and tried not to lose control.

It was late at night, and everyone at the banker fell asleep.

Mrs. Xiang got up from the kang. Zhuang Dashan was very wary of her. He immediately opened his eyes and shouted sharply:

"What are you going to do?"

"My stomach hurts and I want to go to the toilet."

"I'll go with you,"

"No, I just need to go to the toilet. Can I run away in the middle of the night?"

"Humph!"

Just like that, Mrs. Xiang held her stomach, opened the door hurriedly, and actually went to the toilet.

She was afraid that Zhuang Dashan would follow, so she naturally had to be careful.

She only stayed inside for a while, then quietly came to the kitchen door in the front yard. She bit her lip, gently pushed the door open, and groped for the water tank.

She took out a packet of medicinal powder from her arms, but because she was too nervous, she didn't notice that Qin Yue, Shitou, and Zhuang Dashan were standing behind her.

I poured the medicinal powder into the jar and stirred it a few times. Damn it, I didn’t even wash my hands after using the toilet.

Mrs. Xiang also laughed sinisterly: "You forced me to do this, so go to hell!"

Unexpectedly, when she turned around and was about to go back to the house, she saw three people staring at her. Xiang screamed, thinking she saw a ghost in the middle of the night.

Shitou lit the candle with an expression on his face, and Zhuang Dashan asked directly.

"What did you throw into the water?"

Mrs. Xiang hurriedly protected the vat with her body, "No, it's nothing, I'm just a little hungry and wanted to find something to eat."

Qin Yue stepped forward and grabbed her by the front, "Drinking water will satisfy your hunger."

"No, no, I don't want any water!"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Qin Yue directly pushed her into the water. Xiang couldn't hold her breath and sucked the water into her stomach from her nose and mouth.

After several sips in a row, I definitely drank enough water.
