Chapter 3

"What did you say?!"

Xue Liangjun's expression was obviously stunned, and even Wang Ergou, who was standing by, was so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.

What's going on?!

Who doesn’t know that Du Xuan likes the village chief’s son Xue Liangjun the most?

Even if she went to the mountains to pick some fresh wild fruits, she would not forget to bring them to Xue Liangjun.

Later, she was sold to a fool as his wife. She thought it was time to stop, but she didn't expect that she would use the fool's prey to subsidize Xue Liangjun.

Xue Liangjun was also used to the original owner's betrayal, so even if what she brought before was precious meat, he felt it was nothing and took it for granted.

But now that Du Xuan is not the original owner and no longer tolerates him, he feels extremely shocked, "You actually asked me for money?"

Du Xuan looked at him with a smile on her face and said, "What you said is interesting. Our family is reluctant to eat the prey that my husband-in-law has worked so hard to catch. We plan to sell it in the town to exchange for some money to subsidize the family and buy some food."

"It's fine if you just reach out and ask for it. We all live in the same village, so I'll sell it to you cheaper. A pheasant of this size can be sold for at least 80 yuan in town. I'll only charge you 70 yuan, so you can forget it.

If you don’t give money, you have to exchange for food, right? Is it possible..."

The curve of Du Xuan's mouth gradually revealed a bit of ridicule, "You are a scholar, and you just want to eat for free?"

"You!" Xue Liangjun didn't expect that this woman who had always been shy and timid in front of him would suddenly change her face. She suddenly turned livid with anger and said coldly, "That was what you gave me for free before!"

It's really embarrassing in such a feudal and conservative society to give gifts to other men after they're already married.

Many people in the village regarded the original owner as a joke, but the original owner did not feel ashamed and thought that he would really have a chance to be with Xue Liangjun, even if it was just a small child.

"I think what you said before is right. I'm already married, so it's not suitable for etiquette. Therefore, it's better to calculate everything I gave you before."

Du Xuan said, "After all, you are a scholar. If people knew that you took things from married women for nothing, your reputation would not be good. Don't you think so?"

Xue Liangjun's face was livid, and he finally waved his sleeves and left.

Wang Ergou, on the other hand, looked at Du Xuan in surprise, "Xuanya...ah no, Ms. Xuan, did you take the wrong medicine? Didn't you like Liangjun the most before? You gave him everything good.

…”

"Then I can still be stupid for the rest of my life?" Du Xuan said, and then asked casually, "Is your father going to the county today?"

Wang Ergou's father owned a mule cart, and he often took things for the villagers to sell in the town or county, and also helped the villagers buy some things back. As long as there was enough room in the cart, a few copper coins were enough for travel expenses.

At this moment, in addition to some goods, there was also a mother and daughter sitting on the mule cart at the entrance of the village.

My mother looked at her in her thirties, with a fierce look on her face, and she looked very shrewd.

The daughter is sixteen or seventeen years old. She is probably born from the heart, and there is a bit of calculation in her eyebrows, but she does not have the innocence that a young girl should have.

"Wang Mazi, why aren't you leaving? How long are you going to wait here? It will be dark by the time you come back if you don't leave!"

"That's right, Uncle Wang Mazi, let's go quickly. My mother and I are rushing to the county. It's not like I won't give you the fare."

"It's from the Du family. You, mother and daughter, are just paying for each person's ride. Why don't you want me to wait for a ride?" Wang Mazi rolled his eyes. To say that the conditions of the Du family in Zhao'an Village are not the best, but they are still there.

Not bad at all.

Especially the Du family, who just sold their niece to a fool as their wife a while ago. But just like this, they even had to pay a few pennies for a ride, and they didn't let go of any small gains, and they didn't feel embarrassed at all.

When Mrs. Yang heard what Wang Mazi said, she raised her eyebrows and said, "My Rong Ya is still a child! Why should I pay my child for a ride?"

Wang Mazi glanced at Du Rong, the child is a seventeen-year-old girl. If she were from another family, she would already be the mother of two children.

The people in the village are also accustomed to the Du family's shrewd temperament of taking advantage of small things.

However, there is no harm without comparison.

Wang Mazi waited for a while, but no one else arrived. Du Xuan, who came to take a ride to the town, happened to be waiting.

Du Xuan came over carrying a pheasant, "Uncle Wang, I will go to the county and sell this pheasant, and I will give you the money for the trip, okay?"

Wang Mazi felt relieved now and said deliberately, "Okay, if you really don't want it, forget it. After all, you are still a child."

Du Xuan smiled and said, "I'm almost seventeen, how can I have such a big child. Please give me some grace and I'll give you the fare for the return trip."

"Okay, get in the car and we're leaving."

As soon as Du Xuan got into the car with the pheasant, she saw the mother and daughter Yang and Du Rong sitting behind the sack with ugly faces.

That is, the eldest aunt and first cousin of the original owner.

What a damn bad luck! Du Xuan thought to herself, if she had known she would meet them, she might as well have walked to town.

Both Yang and Du Rong had ugly expressions. They had obviously heard what Du Xuan had just said to Wang Mazi, and it was a slap in their faces.

"I see you are living a good life, and you can even take the bus to the county to sell pheasants." Yang glanced sideways at Du Xuan with his slanted eyes, and spoke in a strange and sinister tone.

Du Rong's yin and yang expression was exactly the same as her mother's, "You blamed my parents for marrying you to that stupid...that man, how could you live like this if you didn't marry him? Can you even take a car to the county to sell money?"

Mountain goods."

Yang looked at the pheasant held in Du Xuan's hand with some covetousness, "Even if you don't know how to take it back to honor your elders, you are so heartless. I raised you so big in vain."

Du Xuan was simply amazed at the shamelessness of the mother and daughter, but she already knew from the memory of the original owner that this was actually the norm.

If you are serious with them, you will lose, so Du Xuan was very calm when she heard this.

"Originally, I planned to sell the pheasants to the county in exchange for some food, but my family couldn't even open the pot," Du Xuan said.

Hearing her words, Yang felt something was wrong, but she didn't have time to speak.

Du Xuan had already continued, "My mother-in-law's willingness to take it back will solve my urgent need. I will take Qi Yan and Xiaobao home for food and accommodation. We don't speak the same language. Originally, I was worried about how I would survive this winter.

.”

Yang's face turned green.
