Chapter 18 Breaking the bones and tendons
"Then sister, you're welcome. I'll call Xin girl here tomorrow. If it doesn't work, let her live with you."
"No, she's a girl, so she should go back to your house."
"Cut, I don't even want to give you a girl for nothing."
"Is this what my mother said?"
"Haha, what's the matter, she is your apprentice, what's the point of making her serve you? I don't feel sorry for you, but you do."
Qiao Mai smiled and said, "I see you, buy two maids to help in the shop, or just hire two people, in the future, Ruxin and Ruyi can no longer do chores in the shop, what a waste of time?"
Lu Sanniang thought about it and said, "Sister, what you said makes sense, so let's buy it. I have no second intentions in buying it."
Qiao Mai glanced at her, smiled without humming, Lu Sanniang couldn't sit with her for a long time, and left after a while.
Two days later, she really bought two girls, both of whom were fifteen or sixteen years old.
None of them are very good-looking, but they look very clever. Lu Sanniang knows what kind of girl is suitable for her.
In this way, Ruxin and Ruyi freed up their hands to concentrate on embroidery. The two went to Qiao Mai to work with her every day, and took time to clean up the house, and cooked for her before going back.
It can be said that these two children really regard her as their master.
So, her master is not stingy, and teaches all the embroidery skills she knows.
Little Linger in the space has been two months old, and she is white and fat raised by Qiao Mai. Although she is a premature baby, she looks like a full-moon baby.
In the past two months, she has grown really fast, and milk powder is also good. This is produced by the world's top manufacturers, and it is no worse than breast milk.
As the child grew, her eyes opened.
Qiao Mai goes in every hour to feed her, change her diaper, pick her up and pat her back, and play with her for a while. .
After Qiao Shicheng and his wife took the ten taels of silver, they didn't buy food, but went home directly, as if they were afraid that others would rob them.
The two brothers, Qiao Jiang and Qiao He, have been waiting at home. They are embarrassed to go with them. The family is in trouble, but it is not time to run out of ammunition and food.
When they first heard that their sister was tortured at her husband's house, the two men didn't expect the Tian family to support their sister.
The main reason is that they took the 100 catties of grain from the Tian family and didn't even give their younger sister a dowry.
It's been a long time, and it's reported that the younger sister was pregnant and was kicked by the mother-in-law to have a miscarriage. Their hearts are so uncomfortable.
It's not that he felt guilty towards Qiao Mai, but that he was secretly poked in the back wherever he went.
The younger sister was being bullied, and the two elder brothers were able to stay at home. They knew it but pretended not to know it. Their faces were trampled to the ground.
Later, they breathed a sigh of relief when they learned that their sister was rescued by the owner of the embroidery village.
But there was another wave of advice from people in the village. The reason was that even an outsider could save their sister, but they were older brothers who didn't even reach out, and fell into the saliva of the villagers again.
In the past two days, the daughter-in-law of the two brothers poked Qiao Shicheng and his wife, saying that Qiao Mai is doing well now and should help her family.
The two old people were embarrassed to go at first, but they couldn't stand the nagging of their daughters-in-law, so they gritted their teeth and went cruelly.
The ending was unexpected to them. They thought they could ask for some money back from the daughter, but they never expected that the daughter sold herself to the embroidery shop, and owed him twenty taels of silver.
The two were roasted amidst the ridicule of the common people. Qiao Shicheng felt that he couldn't save face, so he said those words, and the result was what he didn't expect.
However, they were very happy to get ten taels of silver. A pound of shelled wheat cost four Wen. How much would it cost for ten taels?
With Qiao Mai's appearance and her current status, even if she leaves another house, it will be used as a house for others, and the Qiao family won't get much.
However, Qiao Shicheng doesn't take the divorce seriously. He thinks that after a while, when no one talks about it, they are Qiao Mai's parents no matter what.
When the time comes, go find her again and say a few soft words, maybe Qiao Mai will forgive them.
After she finishes working in the embroidery village, she can continue to support the family. Anyway, she sells herself and will not marry again. From now on, all her money will belong to the Qiao family.
Qiao Shicheng and his wife took the silver back home and locked it up. They looked at it several times a day for fear that it would disappear. They had never seen ten taels of silver in their entire lives.
The two daughters-in-law were also very happy, and they went to the mother-in-law's room to coax her every day.
In the end, the money was divided up before it was warmed up. The first room gave two taels, the second room gave two taels, and the remaining six taels, bought a knife of meat, bought some grain, and the remaining four taels, Qiao Lu's family will never give up. Do not take it out.
Let's put it this way, Qiao's family had a few good meals with the money from breaking up with their daughter, and each of the two sisters-in-law had a silver hairpin on their heads.
After all, she is not completely shameless, she does not dare to let others know about her delicious food, and she does not dare to wear the silver hairpin on her head, she only stays beautiful at home.
After returning home, the old Tiantou couple also held their breath.
"That bastard, he agreed not to tell the truth. Now everyone in the town knows about it, and the mayor has a bad impression of our family."
"Yeah, you can say whatever you want, otherwise you will have to suffocate me."
"Don't worry, the future will last forever, and her good days won't last long."
A few days later, Tian Yaozu came back from the town, lost his temper as soon as he got home, and dropped everything on the desk.
The Tian family stood in the yard with apprehension on their faces.
It's not because she's afraid of him, but because she thinks he will be promising in the future, so she let him go.
"Grandma, grandma, didn't you say that you would go to the town to coax him, why did you alarm the mayor?"
"She hated our family and scolded me as soon as she opened her mouth. I am so old, how can I bear this, so I quarreled with her."
Tian Li started talking nonsense unconvinced, but in fact it was all caused by her opening her mouth first.
"It's all right now, my husband asked me about this matter, and even my classmates laughed at me, saying that our family is a farming and studying family, and they did such a thing."
"Anyway, we have all the good things to say. If you have the ability, you can tell it yourself. The rumors in the town are all hers and have nothing to do with us."
Tian Yaozu roared angrily: "Okay, okay, I have already found out what happened at that time, so you don't need to say anything, I will go to see my third aunt later, my third uncle went to serve in the army to contribute to the court, she How can we get away from third uncle? You have to come back quickly and obediently wait for third uncle to come back."
The two daughter-in-laws of the eldest and the second wife of the Tian family hid aside and talked in a low voice.
"Our mother is the same, don't just eat in one bite, what can I do if I give her something to eat, the third son's family is so capable, why would she pinch her eyes and look down on her, if it wasn't for that kick, the third daughter-in-law's heart would be chilled, and she would not It's not going to be like this, it's all right now, her job is ours."
"That's right, I'm exhausted these days. My mother-in-law wants to rub us like Qiao's, so I will take the child back to my mother's house."
"Me too, let that old man do all the housework."
The two of them are not guilty of saying this. When bullying Qiao, the two of them did not hesitate to speak or do anything.
On this day, Qiao Mai was drawing pictures in the yard, and Ruxin and Ruyi were already able to embroider.
As soon as the picture was half drawn, Lu Sanniang came.
"Sister, the scholar from Lao Tian's family is here. He keeps saying he wants to see you, and he keeps calling his third aunt. It's hard for me to drive him away."
Qiao Maimi rolled her eyes, "He really can put on a show. When he was at home, he often watched that old **** bully me coldly. I poured his chamber pot, and I also poured his washing water. He still has the nerve to call me Third Aunt?"
"He stood at the door for a long time, are you going or not? If I don't go, I will try to dismiss him."
"Go, I want to see how long Shushulang will pretend to be at such a young age."
