The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 4 The Chen Sisters Who Came to Make Trouble

While mother and son were weeping, someone came in from outside: "Second aunt, bring me some eggs from your house. My brother has to take an exam!"

This is Jing Xiang, the youngest daughter of the eldest family of the Jing family. She is also a daughter. What is different from Jing Li is that Jing Xiang is the daughter of her mother, Zhang, after she gave birth to three sons. The cost of food, snacks and clothing all costs Jing Xiang. Pears can't compare.

Because Jing Song in the big room is a promising scholar in the Jing family, everyone in the Jing family has to keep a close eye on him. All the eggs and meat in the house can only belong to him. Su, a patient who has been bedridden for a long time, does not even smell like eggs. You can't even smell it, but Jingsong can't beat a few poached eggs every day.

Su Shi coughed twice and pointed to the basket under the bed. Jing Ye was about to get it, but Jing Li held his hand down.Turning to look at Jing Xiang: "Axiang, my mother has been ill for a long time and has no money to get any medicine. How about you guys borrow some money from your family to get some medicine for my mother?"

Jing Xiang was also startled when she saw Jing Li at home, but when she heard that she wanted to borrow money, she immediately came to her senses: "My family has no money, and I have to prepare for my third brother's spring exam. How can I have more money?"

Jing Li looked bitter: "What should I do? I also want to sell a few eggs to give my mother medicine."

Jing Xiang turned a blind eye and went to get the egg: "You can borrow it from someone else. I will take the egg back first to replenish my brother's health."

Jing Li stopped her: "Didn't you hear me clearly? You need to replenish your third brother's health, and I need to get medicine for my mother. Since you can't borrow money, I naturally can't get the eggs."

Su Shi coughed at the side: "Ah Li, I...cough cough! It's not important for me, but your third brother's exam is important."

However, Jingli didn't give in at all. The two of them were looking away from each other, and there were shouts and curses coming from outside the house.

"Jingli, you little whore, come out here!"

"Come out of here, you bastard who has no conscience and a bad conscience. You have almost ruined my Chen family. If I don't tear you apart today, my surname will not be Chen."

Jing Li came out and said, "Your surname is not Chen? Do you want to follow my surname Jing?"

The people who came were none other than Chen Yuzhang's eldest sister Chen Yuhua and younger sister Chen Yulian. Chen Yuhua left early yesterday because her husband's family was in a neighboring village and she had children at home.

Chen Yulian went to show off at her neighbor's house last night and was not at home. She didn't know that her house was on fire until the fire started getting fierce.

Both sisters were filled with anger and hurried over before dawn.

It was breakfast time early in the morning. When the villagers heard the scolding, they all came out to watch the fun. When they saw that the girl from the Jing family who had just got married yesterday had returned to her parents' home today, they were all very curious and did not go home for a while. He ran to the door of Jing's house to watch the excitement.

When Jing Xiang saw that the Chen sisters came with bad intentions, she hurriedly called the elders in the family. She was not asking for support, but she was afraid that Jing Li would do something that would affect the entire Jing family.

While Sister Chen Yuhua was still cursing, the old lady and father of the Jing family, as well as the first and third bedrooms all came.

"Eldest sister of the Chen family, why are you scolding at the door so early in the morning?" Old Mrs. Jing ran over.

Chen Yuhua snorted: "Then I have to ask how your Jing family teaches girls? Not only did they push my eldest brother into the water last night, but they also burned down my house. Tell me, how can I not find such a wicked woman? Does she settle the score?"

Everyone looked at Jing Li and started talking about it for a while.

"You can't tell this girl from the Jing family. She is usually a quiet girl, but she is said to be a very good girl. I didn't expect that she would do such a thing."

"Hmph, no matter how big of a deal it is, a girl's family is killing people and setting fire to other people's houses. This is too dark-hearted." The old man of the Jing family drew a stick and was about to hit Jingli, but Jingli ducked out of the way. Dodged.

"You unfilial daughter, you have caused such trouble, how dare you hide?"

Jing Ru, the third room mate of the Jing family, had a look of gloating on her face. She also admired Chen Yuzhang in her heart. Chen Yuzhang was not only good-looking but also well-read. There were few girls in Jingjia Village and Chenjia Village who did not admire him in their hearts.

Now that she saw Jingli in such a state, she would have wanted to laugh a few times if it wasn't for the wrong occasion.

Jing Li ignored Mr. Jing and said, "You two sisters are coming over. Does your family know?"

Although Chen Yulian is young, she has a bad mouth: "How many people do you want to know that a rag like you won't find a rope to hang yourself, and you will be embarrassed all the way to your parents' house, and you are not afraid of staining the reputation of your parents' girl."

People with marriageable girls in their families all looked at Jing Li with evil eyes. If this girl gets married, people will say that you have a girl in the Jing family. How can the girls in your family hold their heads high?

Chen Yuhua said bitterly: "If you Jing family don't give me an explanation today, I won't leave here. Let's see if you Jing family still have the face."

Sun, the eldest daughter of the Jing family, was unwilling: "Father, mother, the second family is separated! If his girl gets into trouble, we can't hurt our family."

Uncle Jing squatted on the steps and bowed his head silently. It was obvious that he also agreed with Sun's statement.

He, the third-bedroom member of the Jing family, also hurriedly said: "Yes! We separated a year ago, and we don't want Jingli to bring down the girls of our two families."

The third uncle of the Jing family spoke slowly: "Normally, since my second brother has been away from home for many years, we are one family and we should naturally help you, but Ah Li! We can't help you if you cause such a disaster."

Jing Li sneered: "I dare not ask my third uncle for help!"

Then he looked at the Chen sisters: "What kind of explanation do you want me to give?"

Chen Yuhua said aggressively: "I will pay you 300 taels of silver for the house that was burned down yesterday."

Everyone took a breath of air. These days, a brick house can only last for a few taels of silver. Who doesn't know what the Chen family is like. This opening is only 300 taels, which covers all the Jing family members. It’s not enough even if you sell it.

"My eldest brother was pushed into the water by you. Now he is seriously ill. In addition to paying 50 taels for medical expenses, you will have to serve my eldest brother like a horse for the rest of your life."

Everyone was shocked again, 50 taels!The Chen family's appetite may be a bit too big.

When Su Shi heard this, she almost fainted and barely stood up to look at the old lady.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Jing hurriedly said: "I'm telling you, when she marries your Chen family, she will become a member of your Chen family. What does life or death have to do with us? You don't want us to pay a penny of this money. As for Jing, Pears, you can sell them, beat them or kill them, whatever you want."

Although Jing Li had known that the Jing family was cold, she still couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. Over the years, Erfang and his family had been working as cattle and horses. When Jing Bo'an died and Su was seriously ill and unable to work, the Jing family separated the family.

Even so, the eggs and meat every year are not even smellable to the second family and the family, and are all provided to the two elders and several sons of the Jing family.
