Chapter 177 The Return of a Good Man

(Pink, pink, eagerly summoning the little pink!)

After all, it was a heart-to-heart connection. Hui Niang was so painful that she was sizzling and sucking the cold air, but she didn't retract her hand that was handed to me in half.

Dad Shi frowned in pain, "You girl is the same. We don't have money, why do we have to pick up firewood to cook by ourselves? Just to save those few cents, my hands are full of thorns. Isn't you suffering from not living?"

Hui Niang smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay, what's the aroma we cook outside? Besides, you're always full of food when you buy it? You can't bear to ask for another bowl. Although we have two hundred taels given by Aunt Song now, she said it was for doing good deeds for the rich. We are not so poor that we have no food to eat. I always feel uneasy when I take this money, so I'd better pay her back and help those really poor people. Oh! Mom, please be gentle!"

After focusing on picking out the last thorn, Aunt Shi angrily called her daughter, "What are you going to pick up the locust when you know it hurts? We have to save money, and it won't be that way. When we meet good firewood, we will pick it up and cook it yourself, but what if we can't find it, so what if we occasionally make do with it? Why pull those? If we tie our hands like this, can we still have peace of mind?"

"Okay, okay, I remember tomorrow, wrap my hands with a strip of cloth first and then pick it up. Don't nag it!"

Dad Shi put down the lamp heavily and said angrily, "Do you want to go tomorrow? No way! From tomorrow, I will go. Your father is thick-handed and not afraid of those things. You little wife, you have a thick-handed and big-legged person, how ugly it looks!"

Hui Niang chuckled, "I just realized that I hate me now. It's too late! I've been your daughter for more than 30 years. No matter how thick the hands are, there is no place to retreat. OK, okay, you two elders, stop nagging, go to bed quickly, I'll have to hurry up tomorrow morning."

After tidying up the simple luggage, the whole family squeezed into a bed to rest.

Although she felt tired, Hui Niang was eager and excited in her heart.

In the capital, she is one step closer. As long as she keeps going, no matter how hard or tired she is, she will eventually see her daughter. She may even find her husband, right?

Thinking of this, people's hearts will be warm, and no matter how thin the quilt is, it will not feel cold.



Capital.

Mrs. Tan's heart was also hot at this moment, but she was really hot.

The room was burning very warm, and a pair of huge lion-patterned cauldrons burned exquisite silver wire and fine charcoal, which made the whole room warm as spring. Without a trace of smoke, it made the fragrance of Madam Tan's body more intense, so that she felt her cheeks were hot and she couldn't control it anymore.

Her eyes turned and she signaled the servants on both sides to retreat. She quietly walked to the tent and lifted a corner.

The man on the bed seemed to be asleep. The light covered by the red gauze at the head of the bed fell obliquely on his face, outlining his handsome facial features. Although it was not so clear, it had a hazy beauty. Especially the lips on his chin, although the color was a little lighter and the lip line was not so clear, it was as pleasing as the lotus root powder jelly.

Mrs. Tan looked at it and felt her face getting hotter. Her heartbeats a little faster, her whole body is hot, and her mouth is dry. She gently untied her cloak and put it on the screen. She slowly walked to the edge of the bed with her skirt, and then she wanted to sit down. She suddenly saw the man on the bed suddenly open her eyes!

He suddenly stared at such a look, as if he was discovered by a beast and invaded into its territory. Mrs. Tan was really shocked and even forgot the fact that he was blind and took a big step back.

But after thinking about it again, she quickly calmed down and said in a gentle and tender voice, "Master, I'm my husband. You scared me!"

The man supported his chin with his hands, as if he didn't hear her coquettishness, so he just asked lightly, "Is there anything wrong?"

Mrs. Tan was a little embarrassed, "Look at the master's question, do you need a reason to serve you?"

"Oh." The man responded without comment, unable to hear any emotion, but lay down again and said, "thank you for your hard work."

Mrs. Tan was delighted and thought she had allowed her to stay. She quickly started to wear a loose dress, but she had just unbuttoned a button. Then she heard the man say casually, "Come back and serve me, don't make it so fragrant, it makes me feel uncomfortable. Sleep on the small bed at the door, don't let me hear it when I call you."

What...what? Mrs. Tan was like pouring cold water on her head, and her enthusiasm disappeared completely. What was he talking about? What does it mean to have a small bed at the door? Is it good for the servant who is on the night to sleep?

"Master!" Mrs. Tan spoke out in anger. She couldn't swallow this! She was the wife of Duke Pingguo, and he had no right to treat her like this! As a husband, isn't there any obligation to have sex with his wife?

"What else do you have? I want to go to the palace tomorrow to see the Queen Mother. If you have nothing to do, I want to rest."

Strange, the man's ordinary words made Mrs. Tan's mind, which was almost blown away by anger, suddenly calmed down again.

She is the wife of Duke Pingguo, but he is the younger brother of the Empress Dowager. Her glory and wealth come from the Empress Dowager, but also from this man. What are the benefits for me if I really offend him?

Taking a deep breath and swallowing it, Mrs. Tan said expressionlessly, "Since the master doesn't like the smell on me, I'd better come and serve you again another day."

Well, the man responded softly and turned over to go to bed.

Mrs. Tan almost bit her silver teeth secretly before she was about to lift her foot and leave. The man added, "Take your things away."

Mrs. Tan turned her head suddenly, her eyes seemed to burn two big holes on the man's body, she pulled off her cloak from the screen, and left with hatred.

The man turned around again, his expression on his face was a little cold and disgusted, but he didn't have any unbearableness or pity.

She chose this path herself, and she could only bear the ending of what kind of outcome she should have.

She took away the position of Duke Pingguo’s wife, but it did not mean that she was also hers.

You really shouldn't be too greedy when you are a human being.



But being a good person will really pay off.

Nianfu stared at the things in his hand, and his warm eyes scared Wu'er and Liu'er, "Sister, what's wrong with you? Say something quickly!"

Sister discovered the treasure! Nianfu didn't have time to explain, so he just grabbed this thing and ran out, shouting, "Luo Wu, Luo Wu!"

Wangcai first followed her and then rushed to the front to lead the way. Otherwise, the owner would be lost in such a big house. Look at it, what a caring little helper, right?

"Here!" A young man stood up from the weed half a man tall, responded in a rough voice, and waved his hand to Nianfu. It was the previous child king.

Now, Luo Wu and the twelve children have taken off their rags, changed into clean clothes, and have their own shoes. Although these are all modified with old clothes donated by the people, they are warm and fitting, and each patch is neatly nailed, starting to have the smell of home.

The only regret is that these thirteen children were shaved and put on hats, regardless of gender. There was no way, the dirt on the children was burned with a few buckets of hot water and could always be rubbed clean, but the lice on their heads were really annoying. If they were not dealt with quickly, it would be extremely difficult to eliminate once it was contaminated on the bedding. In order not to bother more people, they had to let them collectively cut off the worries.

Fortunately, the children's health is not very bad. Dr. Gao has come to treat these children. In addition to taking a few medicines to beat the insects in the stomach, the main problem is caused by malnutrition. As long as you eat well, you can always make up for it slowly.

The tasks assigned to these children by Ouyang Kang were originally optional and not too heavy. Unexpectedly, under the leadership of Luo Cheng, these children not only cleaned up the garden for them, but also kindly told them that the small trees that looked like dead branches were actually peonies of good quality, and there were also koi that were not as good as food hidden in the puddles under the haystacks.

It is indeed very useful to deal with old residents.

While sighing, Young Master Ouyang instructed Luo Wu to report all the useful things they found in the past, or they did not recognize but special things.

It’s better to kill by mistake than to let go!

Master Ouyang spent three thousand taels of silver, how could he not squeeze out the last drop of blood? No, let’s use the last bit of residual heat?

Luo Wu and the others are quite good. The good things they have discovered so far are worth dozens of taels. Luo Wu also told them that by the spring of the next year, he could take these children to help their families grow vegetables and feed chickens, and even lean on the hibiscus pond on the water surface to raise fish and ducks. If they don’t smell bad, they can still feed a few pigs.

Stop! Ouyang Kang couldn't accept the last thing.

When he thought of how many chickens crowed one day, he could also encourage himself to say, "The lights are on the third day and the fifth day is when a man is studying." When he pushed the window and saw a few ducks, he could also say, "The duck prophets of the spring river." But suddenly, a fat and big ears arched out of the yard. What should he think?

However, none of the above is more surprising to Nianfu if he reports today.

"Is this thing really dug out of the cave?"

Luo Wu glanced at her and said, "What should I do to coax you? There used to be some terrible wood in that cave, which grew up all year round. Sometimes we didn't have food to eat, and we got it, but it was not poisonous. But we ate it so hard that it didn't grow much this year, so I didn't say it. But when I went to see it today, I found another flower grew, and I gave it to you."

Haha! Nianfu wants to smile to the sky. In fact, she did the same.

This is nothing else, this is mushroom, mushroom!

Since mushrooms can grow in the cave, what does it prove? It proves that this cave is a ready-made small treasury!
