Chapter 21 Dilemma
Ye Ziqiu naturally thought about this question, but if Qi Tianci became crippled because of this, she couldn't abandon him even more.

Thinking that his leg would never recover from now on, Ye Ziqiu felt indescribably uncomfortable.

"Hope he's okay."

If you hurt your leg, you should eat something to make up for it. Qi's family's conditions are not good. Ye Ziqiu thought about it, went back to the house to find the purse in which she saved money, and took it out the door.

Ding Lao San in the village is a pig butcher and also Ding Wan'er's father. Although he doesn't like Ding Wan'er in his heart, Ye Ziqiu doesn't care about it and goes directly to Ding's house.

I heard people say earlier that what you eat will nourish you, Ye Ziqiu plans to cook some bone broth for Qi Tianci.

Entering Ding's house, Ding's family was eating, seeing Ye Ziqiu, Ding Wan'er's eyes lit up, "Ziqiu, are you here to find me?"

Ye Ziqiu twitched the corner of his mouth, "I'm here to buy some big bones from Uncle Ding."

Hearing that it was for shopping, Ding Laosan got off the kang directly, "It just so happens that there are some meat and bones left today, how much do you want?"

At this time, the weather was hot and things couldn't be stored for long, so Ye Ziqiu ordered a few big bone sticks with meat on them, and it cost ten renminbi.

Ding Wan'er has been paying attention to Ye Ziqiu since she came in, seeing that she didn't intend to talk to her, she frowned involuntarily, put the rice in her mouth a few times and dropped it on the ground.

"Qiu'er, it would be nice to buy some meat, why do you still think of buying bones?"

Ye Ziqiu didn't hide it when she heard the words, "Brother Qi was injured because my father was injured, so my mother asked me to buy some bones to make soup for him."

The story of Qi Tianci was naturally spread all over the village, how could Ding Wan'er not hear about it, her eyes lingered on Ye Ziqiu's face for a moment, seeing that she had no special emotions, she felt relieved.

She also wanted to visit Qi Tianci, but her family disagreed. It was obviously inappropriate for her to go to a man's house as a girl, and she was in a hurry. When she saw Ye Ziqiu, an idea came to her mind.

"Ziqiu, have you eaten yet?"

"No."

"Can you boil this bone well? Let me tell you, there is a trick to boiling this bone. If the method is wrong, it will have no effect at all. How about this, I will go with you to your home and teach you how to boil it."

Ding Wan'er vowed.

Ye Ziqiu glanced at her, and he had already seen her purpose in his heart, how could she make her wish come true, "No need, my mother is the worst boner, it's getting late, I have to go back."

Ignoring Ding Wan's and Bully Pan's eyes, Ye Ziqiu pursed her lips to say goodbye to the Ding family and left the house.

No need to think about it, Ding Wan'er was probably out of anger at this time, Ye Ziqiu's mood suddenly improved a lot.

Just leaving the door of Ding's house, he bumped into Tian Wenjin who was coming out. Tian Wenjin's family lived diagonally opposite Ding's house, and his eyes lit up when he saw Ye Ziqiu.

Ye Ziqiu immediately remembered what happened before, and his face turned pale for a moment, but thinking that he was in the village, he stabilized his mind, turned around and walked home without even looking at him.

"Ziqiu!"

Ye Ziqiu just pretended not to hear.

"Ziqiu, I was wrong about what happened that day, can't I even say a word now?"

"Talk? Why should I talk to you? Men and women don't know each other. Tian Wenjin, you are a scholar, so you should understand this better. Don't talk to me in the future. I don't know you well."

Tian Wenjin looked at Ye Ziqiu who was walking away in front of him, narrowing his long and narrow eyes slightly. The reason why he chose Ye Ziqiu in the past was because the Ye family had little savings, and on the other hand, he also fell in love with Ye Ziqiu's beauty.

If he had to say that she was the only one, that wouldn't be the case, but now that he was rejected, he couldn't let it go, and more importantly, he was unwilling and humiliated.

Tian Wenjin clenched his fists, Ye Ziqiu, sooner or later you will crawl under my feet, begging me to repay today's humiliation!

Ye Ziqiu didn't know what Tian Wenjin was thinking, so he hurried home. At this moment, Mrs. Zhang and Ye Zhengliang had already returned. Seeing Ye Ziqiu's return, the family prepared to have dinner.

Ye Ziqiu split the big bone back with a knife, washed it, added green onion, ginger and garlic, put it on the fire and boiled it in a pot, and then went into the house to eat.

"Qiu'er, what are you doing?" Mrs. Zhang asked.

"It's a pig bone. I just went to Ding's to buy it. Qi Tianci's bone was injured and needs to be repaired."

There was nothing wrong with these words, but Mrs. Zhang slapped the chopsticks on the table.

"I will take care of Qi Tianci's affairs. Your father and I will take care of it. Don't meddle with you, an unmarried daughter."

Ye Ziqiu knew that Mrs. Zhang was angry, but she had to explain this matter clearly, so she also put down her chopsticks and looked at Mrs. Zhang.

"Mom, it's just cooking. Mother don't need to be so nervous. There is one thing I didn't say. In fact, Qi Tianci's injury is all because of me. After my father went out in the morning, I have been restless. I just happened to meet Qi Tianci. I begged him to find my father. If it wasn't for me, he wouldn't be hurt at all, so maybe it would be my father. Mother, you taught us that we can't be ungrateful, but it's nothing more than making something for him. .”

"And mother, I still have a marriage contract with the Qi family, mother, don't be angry, there is something I don't want to hide, if Qi Tianci's leg really doesn't get better this time, I will marry him."

Ye Ziqiu said these words directly, Mrs. Zhang listened quietly all the time, her face turned blue and then white, and then turned pale and then blue, without saying a last word, she turned her back to Ye's family, raised her hand and wiped her face. shed tears.

Ye Ziqiu understood Mrs. Zhang's mood, but she still had to explain clearly. Seeing her mother like this, Ye Ziqiu suddenly felt sore in her heart. She stood up and came to Mrs. Zhang, and handed her the handkerchief.

Mrs. Zhang pushed away fiercely, without even looking at Ye Ziqiu.

Ye Ziqiu sighed in her heart, she didn't want to make her mother sad, but it still made her uncomfortable, Ye Ziqiu couldn't control the tears from flowing down.

"Yunniang, the child is right, we must not be ungrateful." Ye Zhengliang thought for a while and said.

"If in the past, the kid from the Qi family was fine, we would still be able to retire the engagement. Now that I was injured in order to save me, if we divorce again, what will others think of our Ye family."

"Then let the daughter jump into the fire pit?"

Mrs. Zhang turned her head sharply to look at Ye Zhengliang, her eyes were red and fierce.

Ye Zhengliang lowered his head in pain, and hammered his leg hard, "It's all my old bones. If it wasn't for my Qi family boy, why would he be injured? Now he even has a daughter, so it's not me who was injured!"

Ye Ziqiu had never seen Ye Zhengliang show such an expression before, and the whole family was stunned.

Zhang Di rushed over and grabbed his hand, his voice tinged with fear, "Father, what are you doing? If there is something wrong with you, what will our family do!"

Mrs. Zhang cried bitterly, feeling in a dilemma. She didn't want to part with her daughter, but she also felt sorry for the Qi family, "Father, don't do this. Eat first, and we'll talk about it later."

Ye Ziqiu couldn't swallow the whole meal, so Ye Ziqiu was full after two mouthfuls, and went to the stove to look at the fire. The big bone soup had already been boiling, emitting bursts of aroma. Ye Ziqiu pressed the firewood, looked at her eyes, and felt full of It is melancholy.
