The next morning, Mr. He was woken up early by her mother-in-law. She endured the pain in her body and hands and hurriedly got up. However, when she opened the door, she was beaten by her mother-in-law.
"Go and wash mine and your father's clothes!"
This morning, the water in the river was cold and icy, and my mother-in-law actually asked her to do laundry!
"Mom, don't you have new clothes? Don't wear these old clothes!"
"Okay, give me money and I'll buy new clothes, so I won't wear these old clothes!"
"Okay, mother, just wait!" After hearing this, Mrs. He thought that her hands were blistered and she would definitely get chilblains if she touched the water, so she might as well spend money!
Anyway, the weather will be better next spring and we can start hunting!
After a while, Mrs. He took out two taels of silver and said, "Mom, take these two taels of silver and buy some cotton and cloth. I will make new ones for you and dad."
As soon as Mrs. Shen looked at the money in her hand, she knew that Mr. He was dishonest. She must have a lot of money, otherwise she wouldn't be so generous and give away only two taels.
He collected the money with his right hand and raised his left hand to hit her, "You lazy woman, if you give me the money now, can you wear new clothes now? It's so cold, how do you want me to go to the town? It will only take two days to go out."
Wait until the sun comes out. Hurry up and go wash your clothes!"
After saying that, Mr. He pointed at Shen Tianlu and cursed: "You lose money, what are you doing here? Your aunt is doing housework today, and your second sister is getting married. If you don't go over to help, you will be lazy every day."
, so he beat Shen Tianlu a few times.
He's whole body ached, but he didn't dare to stop her mother-in-law. She could only say: "Mom, my hands were broken yesterday when I cut the soles of my shoes. Can you let Lu'er wash the clothes? I'll light the fire!"
"You lazy fool, have you got your wings strong and learned to talk back! You are an unfilial daughter-in-law, what do you do for me? My parents-in-law don't wash their clothes, but you still dare to contradict me. Let's see if I don't beat you to death!"
Then, Mrs. Shen started beating again.
Shen Tianlu remained silent, hugging He and bearing Mrs. Shen's fist.
Shen Tianli couldn't bear the fact that his mother and sister were beaten, and said in a cold voice: "What's the noise? Are you going to let me sleep?"
Mrs. Shen narrowed her eyes, paused, and then said: "I'm not your mother, so I'm asking her to do some work without any hesitation. He, let me tell you, if you talk too much in the future, you won't listen to my orders."
, the Shen family can’t keep you here anymore, just go back to your parents’ house!”
When Mrs. He heard this, she hurriedly cried and said: "Mother, mother, I don't dare to do it anymore! Don't drive me away!"
"Humph, why don't you hurry up and do the laundry!"
Mrs. He hurriedly grabbed her clothes, without combing her hair, took a basin, wooden sticks and soap locust and ran out of the house in a hurry.
Little did he know that her son's eyebrows were so wrinkled that they could pinch an ant to death!
After Mr. He finished washing his clothes, his hands were sore and cold that he could no longer hold the wooden basin and dropped it to the ground. He squatted by the river and cried in grievance.
She has never suffered like this since she was a child!
Seeing this, Li Xiuer walked over and asked worriedly: "Aunt, what's wrong with you?"
As soon as He saw the person, he hurriedly wiped away his tears. When he saw that the person was Xiu'er, he said awkwardly: "Xiu'er, why is it you! Why did you come out in such a cold weather?"
"My mother asked me to pull some vegetables. When I came here and heard crying, I thought it was someone! Aunt, what's wrong with you?" He came out with clothes in his arms. Li Xiuer saw her and left after she finished washing the clothes.
Came over.
"It's okay, it's just that the water is too cold and my hands are freezing!"
Li Xiuer went to hold He's hand and saw that there were white and rotten blisters on her hand, so she asked in surprise: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with your hand?"
He shrank, hid his hands in his sleeves, and said, "It's okay, I cut two shoe soles last night and they can be polished!"
In her previous life, Li Xiuer married into the Shen family and never paid for shoe soles. This was one of He's methods of torturing people, but she didn't expect that He would actually start paying for shoe soles so early.
He said sympathetically: "Aunt, others have married wives and become mothers, but it's better for you. With a wife, not only do you have to collect and cut firewood, but you also have to wash clothes in the cold weather, and you even have to collect the soles of shoes.
Auntie, you are marrying a daughter-in-law. You clearly don’t know how to care about your ancestors. She doesn’t know how to care about you. I feel sorry for you! Auntie, I’ll wash your clothes for you!”
"No, no! The clothes are washed. I'm just about to go back!" He said thoughtfully.
Ye'er should be back today!
With Ye'er's help, she doesn't have to work so hard!
Li Xiuer held the basin, "Then I'll take Auntie back!"
Because Mr. He had washed his clothes, he didn't have to chop wood today. Who knew that after dinner, his mother-in-law would send her to chop wood, and Shen Tianlu wouldn't be allowed to go.
Shen Tianlu was not idle at home. She said she was helping, but in fact, she was left to do what the aunt should do. If her brother hadn't gotten angry, he would have asked her to wash the clothes in the big room.
He and Shen Tianlu lived a hard life at home, while Liu Ye and Shen Tianyan lived happily in the county, eating white rice and meat every day. The happiest person was Shen Tianyan, whose sister-in-law was busy teaching Dr. Sun and his family acupuncture methods.
Well, brother Sun Hong taught him how to read and write.
He is so awesome now that he can write his own name. Brother Sun Hong also said that he is the smartest, cutest and most diligent child he has ever seen!
On the third day, for the sake of celebration, Dr. Sun also asked his daughter-in-law Shang to buy a new set of red coats and skirts for Liu Ye to wear. Shang did not have a daughter and liked such a beautiful child like Liu Ye very much. Although
They will be junior sisters from now on, but this does not affect her treating each other as a daughter.
Doctor Sun's apprenticeship banquet was very solemn. Not only did he invite prominent people from the county, he also invited the county magistrate.
When Qin Ping saw Liu Ye, he was first surprised. This little woman was not the one who treated the beggar that day, but was actually Doctor Sun's apprentice.
Although Doctor Sun was punished by the emperor, Doctor Sun was very famous for his medical skills. In addition, he was the brother of a miracle doctor, so it was only a matter of time before he returned to the court. Therefore, Qin Ping still valued Doctor Sun very much. Naturally,
Because of this relationship, he, the only disciple, valued him very much.
"I didn't expect that this young lady is actually Mr. Sun's beloved disciple. She is indeed a great disciple born from a famous teacher. She not only has Mr. Sun's medical skills, but also his chivalrous heart!"
"Master Qin has known his disciple before?"
Qin Ping smiled and told about Liu Ye's rescue and treatment, and then said with a smile: "My wife also likes Mrs. Liu's chivalrous heart. She wants to go to the county government office when she has time."
Liu Ye just giggled and didn't nod or shake her head. If he wasn't the biggest official in the county, and the people didn't fight against the officials, she wouldn't bother to pay attention to such a deaf and blind person.
The apprenticeship went smoothly. As soon as Dr. Sun invited everyone to come to the table and enjoy the dishes, he was disturbed by a group of soldiers outside the door.
"Brother, why are you here?" Qin Ping asked hurriedly when he saw that it was his uncle.
Kong Maoxun glanced at Qin Pei and was very dissatisfied. His sister had been married to him for fourteen years. In order to manage the domestic and foreign affairs for him, she only gave birth to one son. It was better for him to keep taking concubines. It was not honest to be a county magistrate.
You should stay in the Hanlin Academy and never come out for the rest of your life!
Let’s see if he can still take a concubine!
"Why are you here?"
"Mr. Sun accepted a disciple today, and he specifically asked me to come over for verification." Seeing that his uncle was very indifferent, Qin Peng guessed that he might have known about his concubinage, and he felt guilty for a moment.
"Mr. Sun, have you accepted a disciple? Where is it?" Kong Maoxun looked around and asked.
Dr. Sun stroked his beard, raised his chin, pointed at Liu Ye proudly and said, "This is my little apprentice Liu Ye! Liu Ye, come and see General Kong."
