Chapter 41
"Then what are you still doing here? Why don't you go soon?" The man said loudly, and the woman turned and left.

When the woman left, the man's stern face immediately relaxed. He said to Liu Man'er with a pleasant face, "Man'er, why don't you eat eggs? Wasn't it your favorite food before?"

Liu Man'er didn't speak, the man sighed and asked, "Did you get bullied at Ye's house?"

As he spoke, he picked up the tobacco rod behind him, and lifted up the clothes on Liu Man'er's arm. There happened to be a few red marks on his arm, which were scratched by branches when Liu Man'er was picking tea leaves in the mountain.

When the man saw the red marks on Liu Man'er's arm, he was furious: "Damn Ye Yuan, I don't think he is a short-lived soldier who married my good daughter to him, yet he dared to beat you. People in the village also said that his family is the kindest, I think it's all about saving face!"

"Man'er, don't be afraid, you tell daddy, hurry up tomorrow, when your eldest brother and second brother come back, I will call your cousins ​​in the village to rush to his house to beat him up for you, what are you kidding, buy The daughter-in-law who came here is no longer human, and dared to beat you!"

After hearing this, when the man said that Ye Yuan was a short-lived soldier, Liu Man'er's heart trembled inexplicably. She didn't want him to curse him like this, but after hearing what he said, she felt like crying She wanted to laugh again, she knew he didn't have such courage.

When he took her to Dawan Village, she was extremely humble.

Is it just this feeling, the feeling of being protected by family members?

Even though he knew that he was just talking about it, he was inexplicably happy.

Afterwards, Liu Man'er and the man just sat there, no one spoke, only the little girl swallowed silently while looking at the eggs in Liu Man'er's bowl.

Not long after, the woman finally came back. As soon as she put down the things, the man pointed to Liu Man'er and said to the woman, "Mother, do you see if this Man'er is even more stupid? He could talk before, but now he can't say a word." Don't get back to me, did she just talk to you again?"

"No." The woman shook her head, walked to the table three steps at a time, looked at Liu Man'er, and said worriedly, "She didn't speak before, but I pulled her in, and she came in."

"Our Man'er was not stupid before, but his mind was a little blunt. Now it's all right. After going to their Yejia Village, I dare not even say a word." The woman said sadly.

The man took out the dry tobacco and stuffed it into the pipe, the woman lit the torch for him, and he took a puff, the already deep wrinkles on his face became more criss-crossed due to his sad face, and he looked even more serious. old.

"What about this?" the man asked.

"You see she's dressed in such rags, she couldn't have escaped because she was frightened by the Ye family's beating, right?" the woman said worriedly.

Liu Man'er thought that she was going to go to the mountain today, so she wore a suit of clothes that looked almost the same. Who would have thought that they would misunderstand her like this.

But wouldn't it be weird for her to refute now?

Continue to keep silent, but fortunately the two couples muttered for a while and didn't say anything more.

The woman went to cook, but the man still looked at her and sighed.

After a while, the man just sat there and felt that there was nothing interesting, "Man'er, how are you doing at Ye's house? Did Ye Yuan hit you?"

Liu Man'er shook her head.

"What do you mean by shaking your head? Did you have a bad time at Ye's house? Or did Ye Yuan not hit you?" the man asked.

Liu Man'er shook her head again.

The man changed the question and said in a low voice, "Man'er, let me ask you, is your brother doing well in Ye's house? They didn't treat your brother as a servant, did they?"

Liu Man'er shook his head, and the man took another puff of tobacco and sighed, "Oh, I thought that Fang family was kind at first? Several married girls in the village also said that she was kind, so it shouldn't be too late. May abuse you?"

"Could it be Ye Yuan? I heard that the soldiers were tyrannical, did he come back recently?" The man looked at Liu Man'er and asked.

Liu Man'er nodded, Ye Yuan is indeed back.

"Oh, I'll just say it." The man nodded, and said to himself with a look of cleverness, "It really is this Ye Yuan, I knew that this former soldier is cruel, and I thought it was Ye Yuan back then. The Fang family is a good person, and her son should not be too bad, it seems that no matter how straight the root is, the tree on it will grow crooked."

"Don't worry, I heard that Ye Yuan won't be able to stay at home for a few days." The woman interrupted.

The man nodded repeatedly, and then asked, "Does Fang treat you well?"

Liu Man'er nodded.

"That's good, that's good." The man nodded sharply, took another puff of tobacco, and then walked out of the house.

The little sister next to Liu Man'er still didn't leave. Liu Man'er saw it, so she scooped some cooled honey egg soup in her bowl for her to eat.

She looked at Liu Man'er timidly, but finally couldn't resist the temptation and opened her mouth, and the sweet egg soup fell into her stomach, and the little girl looked satisfied.

Liu Man'er felt sad again, she gave her another spoon, but the little girl quickly ran away.

Not long after, there was a sound outside the door, Liu Man'er seemed to hear Ye Yuan's voice vaguely, was it her hallucination?
It wasn't until the man came in with Ye Yuan that Liu Man'er was sure that the voice she just heard was not a hallucination. The two stood together, the man was a head shorter than Ye Yuan, and Liu Man'er saw Ye Yuan holding a few rabbits in his hand. , but the man who threatened to beat Ye Yuan just now, now has a very good attitude towards Ye Yuan, even in front of Ye Yuan, there is still a little groveling.

Seeing Ye Yuan looking at her, Liu Man'er turned her head aside.

"Yo, Man'er is at odds with you." The man said flatteringly, and moved a stool for Ye Yuan: "Come, sit, my daughter is not sensible, if there is something wrong, you should take care of it."

What about your morals? ! ! !

Liu Man'er shouted loudly in her heart, "Didn't you just say that you would hire someone to go to Dawan Village to beat Ye Yuan up? Now that Ye Yuan is here in front of you, why don't you beat him and treat him so well?"

But men are afraid of Ye Yuan for a reason. Ye Yuan is tall and burly, with a bow and arrow on his back. He has been a soldier all year round, and he has a special aura on his body. His straight face really makes people a little scared.

What's more, Liu Man'er and Liu Fusheng will be taken with Ye Yuan's home in the future, can he not treat Ye Yuan well?

Therefore, this is the tragedy of marrying a daughter. Some people marry a daughter-in-law and beat or scold her every day, but when the son goes to his father-in-law's mother-in-law's family, the father-in-law's mother-in-law's family treats the son-in-law as a guest of honor.

Liu Man'er sighed in her heart, stood up suddenly, turned around and left.

She really didn't want to see two old people not only going to such trouble for her, but also bowing their knees in front of a junior to please her.

"Where are you going, Man'er?" The woman asked hastily after seeing it.

Liu Man'er didn't speak, but quickened her pace and walked out.

She didn't expect to come to her mother's house today. She was wearing tattered clothes and didn't even have a copper coin in her arms. She couldn't even buy something for her parents and younger siblings. Instead, she let the poor parents take care of themselves. , she couldn't bear it.

"Man'er, Man'er!" It was Ye Yuan who came after him from behind, and Liu Man'er ran away, but he couldn't run after all.

A hand reached out from behind and grabbed her hand, Liu Man'er shook it off.

"What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly go back to your mother's house and still fight with me?" Ye Yuan's voice came from behind Liu Man'er.

Liu Man'er didn't know how to answer.

"Is it because I didn't answer you last night, so you are angry?" Ye Yuan thought for a long time, but only thought of this.

Liu Man'er remained silent.

"I know, you must be angry." Ye Yuan twisted Liu Man'er's body, turned her around, looked at her, and said, "Of course I can't answer you hastily for such a prudent question. It is equivalent to someone pointing to a gold mine and a tael of silver and asking you: 'Do you want a gold mine or a silver coin?'”

"Of course I want them all, but the man said: 'If you want gold mines, you can't ask for silver.' Such a difficult question, of course I have to think carefully. Can you say at once, if I give up the gold mine, I want silver?"

"Then do you want gold mines or silver now?" Hearing what Ye Yuan said, Liu Man'er couldn't help but raised her head and asked.

"I thought about it all night yesterday, but I still couldn't figure it out, so I ran to the river, and I sat by the river, listening to the rush of the river, and my heart suddenly calmed down. No matter how much gold you have, it is not mine, just like the water in this river, if you want to quench your thirst, you only need a spoonful."

I rub!

Liu Man'er felt that the words of Ye Yuan, a short-lived soldier who was a soldier, were quite touching!

"I just thought about it. When I needed this tael of silver and this scoop of water, when I got home, you were already gone." Ye Yuan looked at Liu Man'er, "I haven't found you anywhere, listen up! He said that he saw you go to the mountain, so he came to the mountain to look for you."

No wonder Liu Man'er seemed to hear footsteps along the way. She thought it was her hallucination, but she didn't expect it to be real.

"You only want to take that ladle of water to drink, have you ever thought about whether you would like to take this ladle of water?" Liu Man'er couldn't bear his gaze, and turned her head away pretending to be disdainful.

"Then are you willing to be 'married' by me?" Ye Yuan stretched out his hand again, and straightened Liu Man'er's head.

"I don't know." Liu Man'er said seriously, "I really don't know."

"Because you still don't trust me very much." Ye Yuan said leisurely, "I'll give you time, anyway, you are my people, you can't run away."

"Hmph!" Liu Man'er snorted coldly, her heart was extremely complicated at the moment.
