    Zhang has always had an inexplicable sense of complacency in front of Liu.

    When they were not married before, they often got together because their families were similar, although they were not large families, but they were also rich.

    Liu was particularly outstanding at that time, and his appearance and character were the best in their circle.

    Later, when they got married, except for Liu's choice of an ordinary rich man, the others either married a scholar or chose a rich squire.

    At that time, they all laughed privately that Liu's vision was low. What was so good about the Qi family?

    But he was just a small landlord with some land in his family. Although there was no patriarchal control in the family, there was no one to help him either. If it is said that there are also scholars who can take imperial examinations who have a future, businessmen who can make money are better than the Qi family.

    At that time, Zhang also laughed at her, but who knew he couldn't laugh after two years.

    Those who marry a businessman will inevitably feel uncomfortable if their husband's family is underdeveloped. If they are developed, they will have to watch their husband marry a concubine.

    As for those who have married a scholar, if a man has not been promoted, and a weak scholar who cannot pick his shoulders and cannot be mentioned, he is afraid that his wife will have to make money to support him, and it is normal for him to live in poverty. In case it is more troublesome to win, if the man who is about to become an official is still young, how many original wives can he be used to looking old and yellow if he has endured for a few more years?!

    As the days went by, they counted Liu's life as easy as possible.

    Zhang was jealous of Liu in his heart and always felt that she had taken advantage of everything.

    When he clenched his teeth and watched his husband take a concubine, Liu was comfortable in front of her Mrs. Qi family, eating and drinking and not worrying about anything.

    His concubine room gave birth to one son after another, and Liu had three children there. Qi Fu was honest and respectful to her, not to mention the concubine room, not even to the brothel.

    However, Zhang became comfortable later, because the second son of the Qi family was not in good health.

    Qi Yun is famous for his poor health. From birth, he could drink medicine before he knew how to drink milk. Even though he was precocious than other children, his dilapidated body knew that he would not be able to live for a few years.

    For Liu, this is the only sadness in her happy life. Although Liu never really loved anyone, she did everything she could to be a mother for Qi Yun, Li Buddha, Qi Yun and Qi Yun.

    However, her pain has become a pleasure that others can grasp.

    As a matter of fact, Zhang also sympathized with her, but compassion was no better than jealousy. The brighter and brighter the concubine in the family, the more jealous she was of Liu, and she always pierced Liu's heart with Qi Yun's illness.

    This makes the blessing at the end of each year Zhang's favorite link, as long as she sees that Liu is unhappy, she can get some vanity.

    It's just that the ordinary Liu door is not out of two doors, and Zhang is not willing to visit, and the only place where he can meet Liu is in the temple.

    Zhang has been here since three days ago, and what he is waiting for is today.

    And she asked about Ye Jiao, also because she heard that Ye Jiao's mother's family could not stand, and she did not even have a dowry, so it was clear that she was a happy lady who could not stand on the table.

    Although these words are not said openly, they are often spread in private.

    It was only later that someone said that the Qi family supported Ye Jiao and that she had a share in everything, and Zhang did not want to believe it. She was only willing to listen to the unfortunate things of the Qi family, and she would naturally turn a deaf ear to Qi Yun's recent situation.

    Zhang just saw only the daughter-in-law of the Qi family, but did not see Ye Jiao, who had not come over in the distance, so she naturally felt that Liu was disgusted with the second daughter-in-law of Chong Xi, so she did not take her out.

    That's even better. The more you dislike it, the more you can't stand on the table. Zhang naturally wants to ask.

    How to know that Liu is not afraid of her to ask, or even wish she asked.

    As soon as he turned his head, Liu said to Ye Jiao, "Jiao Niang, come here."

    Ye Jiao immediately came forward and smiled at Liu Tian Tian: "Niang, do you call me?"

    Liu nodded, but did not say anything, just leering at Zhang, slowly and leisurely way: "this is Jiao Niang, just passed the door soon, what do you ask her to do?"

    Do what? just want to be mad at you with her!

    Zhang wanted to say this in his heart, but the smile on his face could not stop.

    She wanted to ridicule Liu, saying that she could only use the method of overjoying because of her urgent illness, and that she must have married an angry wife who did not want to look like her, but when Ye Jiao only stood in front of her, Zhang felt that her blood was rising.

    How does this look like a child from a poor family? It is said that the noble daughter is also believed by some people, okay?

    Zhang lost his voice at the sight of Ye Jiao, closed his mouth and stared his eyes red.

    Ye Jiao has a good appearance, beautiful eyebrows and smooth lips, especially the distant mountain eyebrows painted by Qi Yun this morning, which makes her look even more beautiful

    He was wearing a new dress cut before, with blue satin and a red cloak, which was particularly expensive and delicate.

    Just a stop there, playful, no matter who comes, you have to say a good look.

    Unluckily, Ye Jiao treated Liu with great respect. She looked clever, spoke pleasing to the ear, soft and crisp, and she felt comfortable when she heard it.

    Zhang made a mental contrast to the Diao daughter-in-law in his family who saw the day as a demon. She had a pain in her back teeth.

    But Zhang did not give up and seemed to ask Liu with concern: "I don't know if your Jiro is any better. When it gets cold, you should pay more attention to it. Don't ask the doctor to use the medicine as easily as a few years ago."

    Liu didn't open his mouth, but just glanced at Ye Jiao.

    The little ginseng thought that his mother-in-law was asking him to answer for him, and thought that it was him who usually got along with his husband day and night, so it was him who should be talking now.

    So Ye Jiao smiled at Zhang and said, "excuse me, ma'am. My husband is much better now. When our new shop opens next year, he will be able to go and have a look."

    As soon as this sentence was finished, Liu stirred up the corners of his mouth, and Fang could not help covering his mouth.

    In fact, both of them knew that Ye Jiao was telling the truth. Jiro, the wife, always had something to say and never dealt with those crooked yin.

    Qi Yun was indeed getting better, and he had the ability to open a shop, earn money, and was supplied by those in charge as the god of wealth.

    But this is the truth, the most piercing.

    And to be able to say so many meanings in one sentence, Liu feels that his second daughter-in-law is capable enough.

    Sure enough, Zhang's face immediately became ugly.

    Liu knows what's on her mind without guessing.

    At their age, they all have grandchildren, and their youthful beauty has been replaced by time. Even if they have some talents, there is nothing to show. They are only compared with each other in a fixed way.

    Whether the concubine is obedient, the son is filial, and the daughter-in-law is satisfied.

    Liu just wants to tell Zhang that there is no concubine room in my family, the son is very good, the daughter-in-law is better, and he will show off some things in front of me less in the future.

    But Liu will not say these words by himself, and a war of words has always been a self-deprecation, and even ordinary village women will not easily scold each other in the street, not to mention that the rich lady like Liu is not willing to do that kind of shameful thing.

    Liu only needs to let Ye Jiao stand here and say that Zhang's face will be swollen!

    Even though Liu has been at ease for many years and has never quarreled with people like Zhang, she still feels much more comfortable and smiles when she sees the embarrassing ink-dripping face of Zhang, who always adds to her jam.

    People, ah, after all, they still like to get angry, and sure enough, it is the most refreshing to hit them in the face.

    Zhang, who was full of anger, couldn't stay any longer. He originally wanted to see Liu's jokes for fun, but he turned out to be fun!

    She hurriedly found an excuse and left, Liu did not call her, slowly turned the bead string on the hand, faintly said: "this person just likes to worry blindly, leave without saying goodbye, impolite, you two can not learn from her." Come on, let's go in. "

    Fang knew that Liu was taunting Zhang, but didn't break it, just followed with a smile, while Ye Jiao didn't feel that she had just done anything rare, and the little ginseng just said what she had to say, just followed Liu behind and went into the main Hall with them.

    In previous years, Liu added a lot of sesame oil to the temple, but when they came, a little monk came out to help arrange the futon or the delivery container, which indirectly told Ye Jiao what to do.

    For example, when entering the door, you have to go through the left door, for example, the man takes the left foot first, the woman steps on the right foot first, and so on. If he doesn't say, Ye Jiao doesn't know anything.

    It sounds tedious, but Ye Jiao follows Liu one by one.

    But Ye Jiao is different from Liu. She just came here to accompany Liu. She is also a little ginseng to test the achievements of her life. She doesn't really want to make a wish.

    For little ginseng, these days are already more enjoyable than immortals.

    There are food and drink, accompanied by the husband, compared to the days when the wind and the sun had to eat dirt, now she has simply reached the pinnacle of demon life.

    But soon, Ye Jiao thought of something that could be used to pray.

    A few steps forward, the little ginseng knelt gently on the futon with her skirt and adjusted a more comfortable posture. She followed Liu's appearance and put her hands together in front of her body.

    Ye Jiao closed her eyes and silently read her wish in her heart.

    Her own life is very good, if there is anything unsatisfactory, just tell the husband, there is no need to alarm others, there is no wish to trouble the Buddha to realize.

    However, she wants to help her husband pray, only hope that his husband can get better, in the future can be disease-free, injury-free, pain-free, live a long life …. No, it would be nice to live to be 150.

    She also said a lot of nice things about Qi Yun in her heart, praising Qi Xun like a flower, as if to convince Buddha, you see, he is so good, of course he has to live well, is it right?

    When she got up, the little monk calculated the time and felt that the female Bodhisattva had probably made several wishes.

    Then Liu gave some sesame oil money, looked at five silver, Fang gave a money, Ye Jiao also gave a money.

    When the incense was finished, several people did not use Suzhai in the temple and soon left the temple.

    Seeing that the Spring Festival was coming, each family had a lot of things to do. Liu was reading Qi Fu and Fang was reading stones. Ye Jiao also wanted to see Qi Yun early, so she didn't have much delay and soon took the bus back.

    They each had an amulet in their hands.

    Although Ye Jiao did not know whether her little wish could be heard by the Buddha, she still carried the amulet well, ready to put it back in Qi Yun's brocade bag.

    Last time, the brocade bag with hair should still be hanging on Qi Yun. Ye Jiao was ready to go back and stuffed the amulet into it.

    But on the way through the town, the carriage made a detour and went to the shop where Liu had made his own clothes.

    Coincidentally, this shop is the one where Ye Jiao bought fur clothes before.

    It's just that it was the shopkeeper's wife who tailored the Qi family before, and Mrs. Liu usually didn't go out much, which made the shopkeeper didn't recognize her the last time Ye Jiao came.

    At this moment, as soon as heard wife say, the shopkeeper knew that this was a big customer coming to the door, and the kind words were poured out for free.

    Especially when it comes to Ye Jiao, the shopkeeper praised hard: "the lady really found a good daughter-in-law. The last time she came to me to buy fur clothes for the second young master, I knew at a glance that she was a good wife, and her ladyship was blessed."

    Liu was originally satisfied with Ye Jiao's unconscious attack on Zhang, but now he is more and more happy to hear this, and he looks at Ye Jiao more and more kindly.

    When he went out, Liu also said to Ye Jiao, "Erlang is now well-off, so don't hold yourself back too much. You should spend as much as you like. Don't help him save money."

    Ye Jiao responded obediently, and did not say anything to save or follow Qi Yun's words, but said, "I listen to my mother, and my husband also says that he can make a profit as much as he wants me to spend."

    In a word, hearing Liu's straight music and patting Ye Jiao's hand, she felt that she had really married a blessed and frank girl to go home this time.

    Without much delay, the few men took their clothes and got into the carriage. With a shake of the reins, the carriage soon disappeared at the corner of the street.

    But there was a man who stood not far away, looked this way, and saw that the carriage had left untouched.

    He is very tall and looks like a martial arts practitioner with thick eyebrows and big eyes that can be seen at a glance if he is placed in the crowd.

    It was just that he had been standing in the dark, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law did not notice at all.

    "Ye Tiha, what are you looking at?" The attendant who dressed up stood beside the man and followed.

    It's just that the carriage is far away, and now can't see anything.

    The tall and burly man did not answer, but frowned and thought, why is the girl dressed as a married woman so much like her little sister?

    Little sister. Aren't you supposed to be unmarried?
