Chapter 2042 Begging for a Jade Bracelet
What Shen Jing reminded Du Yueqing yesterday was to prepare Du Yueqing mentally.
Facts proved that Shen Jing's guess was correct. The next day, the news of the addition of a little girl to the Shen family spread throughout Xiaoniu Village as if it had grown wings.
Some people didn't believe it at first, until they saw with their own eyes that there was an extra little girl inside the gate of Shen's family.
Regarding the origin of Niu Jingmiao, people in the village made guesses and guesses. Some said that she was a distant relative of Shen Jing who was temporarily staying with the Shen family. Others said that she was adopted by Du Yueqing because she could not give birth to a child.
However, adoption seems unlikely. Du Yueqing is only a few years old, and adopting a daughter would not mean adopting someone who is only a few years younger than her.
Everyone's mouths seemed to have grown wings. Those who had no friendship with the Shen family watched the excitement from a distance, while those who had a better relationship came directly to the Shen family.
In the end, Niu Jingmiao was embarrassed to ask and didn't know what she should or shouldn't say, so she simply locked herself in the room and never came out.
"You are weak and suffered some irritation yesterday. Take good care of yourself these days. Leave the housework to your grandparents for the time being. When you get better, it won't be too late to do what you can."
Niu Jingmiao is a very sensible child. She gets up early in the morning and helps with household chores.
Du Yueqing felt a little embarrassed about cleaning the yard and feeding chickens and ducks. Ever since she opened a shop in the city, these two old people at home have been doing these tasks.
Although they also made it clear that Shen Jing and Du Yueqing could only handle the business of the store.
But when Niu Jingmiao arrived, Du Yueqing suddenly realized that the two old people were old and it was time to enjoy a happy life.
Niu Jingmiao lowered her head and said timidly, "Sister, I'm fine now. I'm very capable of working."
Seeing the little girl's face promising herself, Du Yueqing also understood why she was so nervous. She was afraid that she was not liked by people in this family and would be abandoned again like last time.
Du Yueqing said with a smile, "Go and rest if I ask you to. Shen Jing and my grandparents are both very good people. No one will criticize you. You will know when you get along with them in the future."
Du Yueqing's words calmed Niu Jingmiao's mood to a great extent.
Yesterday, she had a fever and almost hit the wall and died. Although Shen Jing saved her in time, the long-term physical weakness swept over her after that.
There is nothing wrong with the body, but the whole person seems to be floating in the air, constantly dissociating, and even the ground beneath his feet feels like nothingness.
…
"Good news, good news, our village's land is going to be expropriated!"
I don't know who shouted at the entrance of the village, and all the people who were watching the excitement at Shen's house immediately rushed out.
The government expropriates land, which is a good thing.
Xiaoniu Village is a remote and remote place, and no one originally had such hope.
As soon as the news came out suddenly, the village seemed to explode.
Each household in the village has one-third of an acre of land, but it cannot support the large population, and each household can get a lot of money.
Among them, the one with the most land was Du Yueqing. When Du Yueqing got married, he was originally given ten acres of land as a dowry, and later bought fifteen acres of Du Jinshui's land.
Du Yueqing would also be very happy if the government could collect all of it or collect part of it.
They are a big family. Grandpa and grandma are too old to farm. Shen Jing doesn't look like a farmer. She is even more busy with business in the county.
Indeed, he has no talent for farming.
Shen Jing asked Uncle Zhao and his family to help take care of the more than 20 acres of land at home, and then divide it into their family after the harvest is harvested.
Uncle Zhao and his family are also happy.
Most of the people in the village went to the collector to watch the fun.
Amei stood at the door of her house and saw everyone crowding around Du Yueqing. She spat on the ground and said, "Bah, didn't you just make a few bucks buying clothes in the city? You don't need this. Hey, thirty years to the east of the river, thirty years to the west of the river, just wait and see when it will fall, you little bitch."
"Amei, Amei, where are you? Why haven't you washed my daughter's clothes yet? She needs to wear them tomorrow."
Inside the room, the Queen Mother was shouting to pull Amei into the room, and everyone watching the excitement outside heard it.
Amei's face suddenly changed, turning green and black.
"Did you see just now that Amei was really pressed hard by the mistress who came in from behind? He had to go and do the laundry if she was told."
"This is what happens when you do too many bad things. If you don't live near the Du family, you haven't seen how hard Amei used to punish Du Yueqing. In the winter, people are no longer what they are."
"Then now that Du Yueqing is married to Shen Jing, life is so prosperous. It's really an eye-opener for God."
"It's not appropriate for Du Jinshui to keep his wife and mistress in the same home. How is he going to solve this problem?" someone asked in confusion.
"What can I do? Just keep it like this. Du Jinshui is really lucky. He has married three wives in his life. When he gets old, he still enjoys the blessings of everyone. Even if he loses a lot of money, he still has a lot of money. Deposits are not the same as ours."
"Yes, but Du Jinshui's fortune has not been good recently. If he hadn't treated Yueqing, his biological daughter, like this, maybe now Yueqing's land has been expropriated by the government, and she still has a share."
"Isn't that right? Look at how well the Shen family is living now. You haven't seen what Yueqing is wearing. I haven't seen the same clothes like hers in a month. There are rich people in the county. None of them are as rich as Yueqing."
"We rural people may never be able to live like this in our lives."
"I can only envy you. Now Yueqing is the living God of Wealth in our village. I heard that the clothing store they opened is doing booming business in the county, especially the hand-customized series. Even the county magistrate's wife has to queue up to go there. Woolen cloth."
"Don't tell me, I met Zhao Lianhua's girl Zhao Qiufeng yesterday. Didn't she work at Yueqing before? She also secretly learned other people's crafts and opened a shop of her own. Now, she has a bad reputation."
"I've also heard about this. Their store can't sell two pieces of clothing in a day. All the business is from Yueqing Clothing Store. I think Yueqing is also a powerful person. He stole this kind of clothes without doing anything. Those who learn other people’s craftsmanship will take care of it.”
"So we should be careful in the future. Yueqing is the richest in our village. Don't stir up trouble in their family. If Yueqing hears it and holds a grudge, what will happen in the future? It would not be good for me to find her."
A few women would gossip at home all day long when they had nothing to do, but they didn't expect that Amei and Zhao Qiufeng they were talking about were listening behind them.
Also hearing these words was Du Yaning.
Amei has been tortured by Du Jinshui's mistress these days, and Du Yaning has been tortured by Sun Shengli. She occasionally wants to go back to her parents' home to hide and relax, and hears a lot of rumors about Du Yueqing.
.
Du Yaning's heart was filled with jealousy. How could Du Yueqing, a man who had no mother since he was a child and was robbed of his marriage in the county, live such a good life?
Her innate conditions are many times better than Du Yueqing's, so why did she end up in this situation?
Du Yueqing clearly chose an inconspicuous rural person, but she had robbed Sun Shengli, and now the lives of the two families were reversed. How could she be reconciled?
…
Du family.
Sun Shengli was talking to Du Jinshui.
"Father-in-law, I heard from Yaning that the bracelets that my mother-in-law left for our engagement were actually two. The other one was used as a token for our family, and there was another Yaning who didn't bring it with her as a dowry. I want to ask about the remaining one.
Where have you gone?"
Sun Shengli picked up the jade bracelet and brought the gifts he had specially bought here.
