Brother Yu smiled and said, "It's good that you have this kind of heart. Fortunately, everything is over now."

Looking at Brother Yun's tattered and thin clothes, he asked, "Brother Yun, did you receive the things I sent you?"

Brother Yun nodded and said: "Got it."

But although he nodded, his eyes dodged and he didn't look at anyone. Ji Yu quickly asked, "Brother Yun, what's the matter? Are you worried?"

Now that you have received everything, why are you still dressed like this?

After a while, Brother Yun shook his head: "No...no."

Then bowed his head and made no sound.

No matter how Ren Ji Yu found a topic, he stopped talking.

His appearance made Ji Yu very helpless.

Where did the lively and talkative Brother Yun go?

After being silent for a long time, Brother Yun raised his head again, hesitant to speak on his face, but bit his lip and refused to speak, and finally looked at him deeply with red eyes, then got up and ran away.

Aunt Qiao carried a chicken and a basket of vegetables into the yard, seeing Ji Yu looking at Brother Yun's back and sighing, Aunt Qiao also sighed and said, "Poor kid!"

Ji Yu followed Aunt Qiao into the kitchen, and asked, "Auntie, what's the matter with Brother Yun? I can see that he looks preoccupied..."

While building a fire, Aunt Qiao said, "Last time, in order to raise the dowry for his elder brother, didn't his father marry him to a widower? Your family gave him five taels of silver, but his father didn't let him marry him again."That family got married, but they didn't give all the five taels of silver to his elder brother's Yue family, they said they would give half of it first, and give the remaining half when they got married."

Ji Yu wanted to help wash the vegetables, but Aunt Qiao refused to let her: "Look at your robe and how beautiful your hands are! Just stay on the side, and I'll finish it right away."

He said again: "His father wants to repair the house. That's true. To marry a bride is to build a decent house. But his father and elder brother are too greedy. They don't repair the house, nor do they build a small one, but want to build a decent house.To build a big house, you need to build three big tile-roofed houses. How can two taels of silver be enough? You owe a whole lot of debt! Now that the creditor came to the door, his father came up with Brother Yun's idea again, and he still wants to marry himTo the widower..."

"You don't know, his eldest brother, the bride has not yet entered the family! He only cares about the unmarried girl. Brother Yun only took a look at the cloth and food you brought back last time, and he was sent to the Yue family by his elder brother."gone. Poor!"

Ji Yu's heart burst into flames.

How could he treat Brother Yun like this?

Fortunately, he didn't bring money to Brother Yun last time, otherwise...

He just thought so, and Aunt Qiao raised her head and looked at him: "New husband, don't give him any more money in the future, what do you know? When the creditor came to his house, his father said, my brother canI have a rich friend, when they come next time, I will pay you back."

He asked again: "New husband, did Brother Yun borrow money from you just now?"

Ji Yu secretly sighed, shook his head and said, "No."

Aunt Qiao lowered her head and continued to stuff firewood into the stove: "Just wait, Brother Yun will be forced to come to you again soon."

Sure enough, Aunt Qiao had just killed a chicken and was plucking its feathers!Brother Yun came again, his face was full of tears, but he stood at the door and refused to come in.

Ji Yu glanced outside, and at the corner outside was Brother Yun's father, Third Child Yang.

Today, the man glared at Brother Yun viciously, gritted his teeth and threatened, "Go!"

When he found that Ji Yu was looking at him, he immediately put on a smile all over his face: "Brother Yu, you're back? Brother Yun misses you so much, let's have a good chat!"

After finishing speaking, he turned and walked away quickly.

Ji Yu sighed, dragged Brother Yun into the main room, made tea and served some snacks, and placed them in front of him.

Brother Yun lowered his head, but the slap marks and tear stains on his face were clearly visible.

Ji Yu waited quietly, waiting for him to speak.

He can take the initiative to lend money to Brother Yun.But from Aunt Qiao's words, he knew that Brother Yun's family might use Brother Yun as a cash cow.

He only wanted to help Brother Yun, but he didn't want to help Brother Yun's father.

He wanted to wait, and if Brother Yun asked, he would lend as much as Brother Yun wanted, but it was only this time.

If Brother Yun can't speak, then he will definitely help Brother Yun get rid of this terrible family.

But when the tea was cold, and the smell of chicken wafted from the stove, Brother Yun still lowered his head and just didn't speak.

When the meal was ready, there was a sudden noise outside the courtyard.

"What about the money? Didn't you say that you will pay back the money today?"

"Immediately, immediately..."

"Brother Yun, brother Yun..." Brother Yun's father stood at the gate of the courtyard and shouted ferociously, making Brother Yun tremble.

Ji Yu really couldn't bear it, held his hand and said, "Brother Yun, if you have any difficulties, just tell me, and I will help you."

Brother Yun's tears flowed down, holding him and weeping, it took a long time before he opened his mouth and said, "Brother Yu, I...I...I want to..."

Before he finished speaking, a group of people suddenly entered the yard, and the two tall and handsome ones at the head were the An family brothers.

An Wu frowned, looked at Brother Yun's father: "Are you okay?"

Brother Yun's father put on a big smile: "Xiao Wu! It's all right, it's just that my brother Yun has something to do with Brother Yu..."

Seeing An Wu, Brother Yun's face paled immediately, he let go of Ji Yu and ran to the yard, pulled his father and dragged him outside desperately: "Let's go..."

Brother Yun refused to leave, and asked, "Have you borrowed any money?"

Brother Yun's face became paler, he didn't dare to look at An Wu, and said loudly: "Let's go!"

Someone outside said impatiently: "Are you going to get the money? I can't wait so long..."

Brother Yun's father said reassuringly: "There will be soon..."

Then he said viciously to Brother Yun: "You dead brother, have you borrowed any money?"

Brother Yun was so ashamed and indignant, he gave An Wu a desperate look, then let go of his father, turned around and ran away.

He looked like this, so naturally he didn't get any money, his father became angry immediately, gritted his teeth for a while, then turned to look at Ji Yu and wanted to ask for money, but seeing the cold-faced An family brother, he didn't dare again, afraidCowardly backed out of the yard and ran away too.

Most people in the village are like this, afraid of power and wealth.

In the past, An Family was just a wealthy family living together in the village. They were at most envious and jealous.

But now the An family brothers bought a mansion in the city, and they know so many powerful people. heard that last time in the yamen, when those powerful friends of the An family brothers appeared, even the county magistrate had no choice but to obediently let them go.

Brother Yun's father would not dare to mess with such an An Family brother.

"Brother Yu." An Si handed the rabbit in his hand to Aunt Qiao, took the hot water brought by Ji Yu, and washed his hands: "What happened just now? Isn't that Brother Yun?"

Ji Yu sighed, dragged the fourth brother back to the East Wing, briefly talked about the affairs of Brother Yun's family, and said, "Fourth brother, I want to help Brother Yun."

Judging from Brother Yun's performance just now, Brother Yun is not a fool, and he also knows in his heart that his father and brother are wrong, so he can't speak.

Dare to get angry with his father, Brother Yun should not be weak.

Being forced to borrow money but being seen by An Wu who likes him, he must be extremely ashamed and indignant, that's why he ran away, right?

He is willing to help such a brother Yun.

An Si nodded: "How are you going to help?"

Ji Yu's expression was a little bad: "I just want to help Brother Yun, not his father and elder brother. They just treat him as a cash cow."

An Si nodded again: "Yes."

Five taels of silver could have solved the problem last time, but Brother Yun's family is too greedy.

His An Family is not very rich, and it is impossible for people to use it as a cash cow.

In the east wing, Mrs. An Sijiyu and his wife were discussing how to help Brother Yun. In the west wing, Tong Jingyuan was looking left and right, with an excited expression on his face: "Xiao Wu, have you lived here for three years?"

An Wu tidied up the things he had left before, and said, "It's not been three years, this house has been built for less than two years!"

Tong Jingyuan nodded: "The house is not bad, much better than I imagined."

Lie down on the bed again: "Xiao Wu, I will sleep with you tonight."

An Wu said without raising his head: "My house has a place to sleep, so I don't need to squeeze a bed."

Tong Jingyuan said cheekily: "But I just want to talk to you, and I want to hear about your life in Peach Blossom Village for the past three years."

An Wu laughed: "What's so interesting? Isn't it just going to the mountains to hunt and dig medicinal materials and chop firewood every day? After earning money, we build a house, and then... my fourth brother met his wife-in-law, and then we enteredthe city."

Why is this kid so ignorant?Tong Jingyuan was so angry that his teeth itched: "Xiao Wu, I want to hear the details!"

An Wu was taken aback: "What details?"

Tong Jingyuan sat up: "What do you see and encounter when you go into the mountains? How do you hunt? What do you usually eat?"

An Wu was really puzzled: "Didn't I already say that! It's just hunting, digging medicinal materials and chopping firewood! Isn't what you eat the usual game? If you insist on listening to the details, it's that since my sister-in-law married in, heThe taste of the rabbits and chickens made is completely different from before.”

Speaking of food, An Wu became more interested: "Brother Jing Yuan, you don't know, my fourth brother and I used to put rabbits and chickens in a pot, add some water and stew them. It's okay to eat twice.If you eat too much, it’s really unpalatable like mud. But the chicken and rabbit meat made by my sister-in-law Fulang is different, it’s delicious and fresh..."

Tong Jingyuan's face darkened.This brat never leaves his sister-in-law in three words, does he like his sister-in-law?

However, it doesn't look like...

An Wu was boasting that his sister-in-law's cooking was delicious, when Aunt Qiao shouted outside: "Xiao Wu, it's time to eat."

An Wu got up and looked at Tong Jingyuan: "I'm going to eat."

Seeing that Tong Jingyuan's expression was not good, he had no choice but to go forward and pull him: "Brother Jingyuan, we're going to eat."

Holding An Wunuan's big hand, Tong Jingyuan's depressed mood immediately improved, and he followed him to the main room with a smile.

There was a table in the main room, all of them were men, and there was also a table in the west room, with Ji Yu, Liu Fulang, Mrs. Yang, Aunt Qiao, Hu'er, Feng'er and others who didn't drink.
