Rebirth of marriage

Chapter 15 Can I ask my nephew to replace me?

As for the reason for buying medicinal materials, Xie Jiu still predicted the weather. Lu Hongyuan did not question it. After getting along with him these days, he knew that Xie Jiu was doing things safely. He discussed with his two younger brothers and the Lu family also bought some medicinal materials. Neither of them had any objections. He took his servants and set out for the capital overnight.

The Lu family's decision was within Xie Jiu's expectation. After explaining what needed to be explained, Xie Jiu also set off back to Lin Shu's house early the next morning.

Not long after arriving home, the troublemaker came.

Yang Xiner placed two buckets of strong-smelling clothes in front of Xie Jiu and said arrogantly, "Where have you been these days? I don't even know how to do the work at home. Go and wash these clothes for mother."

"Have you forgotten that I have given up the past six months to Dr. Lin to treat my mother-in-law?" Xie Jiu smiled quietly, "I can only do what Dr. Lin ordered me to do."

"How dare you not wash it? I'll tell mother later and take care of you when she gets better." Yang Xiner put the bucket into Xie Jiu's hand.

Of course she didn't forget it, and learned from Lin Shu that Xie Jiu was out on business.

But her mother's dirty clothes had been accumulated for several days, and she really didn't want to wash those dirty clothes. She was just worried when she saw her coming back from the wine shop, and in a blink of an eye, she brought the dirty clothes to Lin's house.

With Xie Jiu's docile temperament, she used to be obedient as long as her mother was moved out. She would definitely wash these clothes obediently.

Unexpectedly, it seems to have failed this time.

Instead of accepting the drink, Xie Jiu took a step back and asked with wide eyes, "You mean, you want me to regret that I will no longer treat my mother-in-law with work-compensated medical treatment?"

"In this case, everyone will say that the Yang family does not keep their word. The eldest brother values ​​reputation. It is better for us to consult with the eldest brother before making a decision."

"When did I say that?" Yang Xiner became anxious when she heard this.

Since Xie Jiu left, her sister-in-law and nephews also went to work, and it fell to her to take care of her mother and housework.

How could she have done this without touching Yang Chun Shui?

At first she protested, but her eldest brother, who had always loved her, actually starved her for two days in a row and warned her fiercely that he would kill her if she disobeyed, which would save one person's food rations.

Xie Jiu's words reminded her of her elder brother's fierce look, and she shuddered inexplicably.

But she didn't want to show her timidity in front of Xie Jiu, so she said arrogantly, "You have to wash mother's clothes anyway. I'll come over to pick them up later. If you dare not wash them, you'll suffer."

She found out a few days ago that her family's grocery store had been robbed and burned down. The government has yet to catch the thief, and their family's income has been completely cut off.

Seeing that her brother and sister-in-law were worried about money, she proposed to let Xie Jiu work as a prostitute, but her eldest brother and the others have not yet agreed. She still thinks this method is very good, and the money will come quickly. Sooner or later, the brother and sister-in-law will agree. If the family has money, she will not have to I serve my mother myself.

Thinking like this, she ran away proudly.

The flash of fear on Yang Xiner's face made Xie Jiu curl his lips.

Yang Ji's grocery store was destroyed and the Yang family had no way of making money. Given the selfish and fearful nature of the Yang brothers, they would no longer coddle Yang Xiner. If life gets harder, they would pay attention to Yang Xiner.

Xie Jiu recalled that night when she was drugged at Yang's house and heard Yang Xiner's words, "Despicable people from merchant families should do despicable things."

"It seems that this is not bad." Xie Jiu muttered in a low voice, then he carried the dirty clothes to avoid people, found a place to burn the bucket together with the clothes.

Lin Shu went out, Xie Jiu ate something alone, and then lay on the bed. The wound was still very painful. She didn't bother to take a good rest when the Lu family was busy, so she slept until the next morning.

She was awakened by shouts outside the door.

After getting dressed and arriving at the main room, Lin Shu also came out of the room, "Yang Xiner came to see you last evening. I didn't let her in. She seemed to be in a hurry. What did you do?"

Xie Jiu told her about Yang Xiner's visit yesterday and how he burned the dirty clothes.

Lin Shu's eyes were much more troubled and narrowed, "I'm afraid Mrs. Cai has no clothes to change."

"Go out and take a look." Xie Jiu suggested. She dared to burn those clothes without fear of Yang Xiner knowing.

The two of them walked lightly to the door. The courtyard door was knocked quickly. Xie Jiu and Lin Shu opened the door forcefully, and Yang Xiner fell to the ground unprepared.

Yang Xiner was followed by Mr. Yang and his wife and a few spectators.

"Brother and sister-in-law, what is Sister Xin doing?" Xie Jiu looked at the others with confusion on his face.

Yang Xiner was knocked down for a while. Although it wasn't very painful, she felt embarrassed. She got up from the ground and slapped Xie Jiu on the face, "You bitch."

Xie Jiu ducked down and avoided Yang Xiner.

"What did I do wrong that my sister-in-law wants to beat me, my sister-in-law?"

Boss Yang felt that after Xie Jiu came to Lin Shu's house, he seemed to have completely cut off contact with the Yang family. He actually never went back to see it. He felt that he was out of his control, and he felt very unhappy.

Yang Xiner wanted to beat Xie Jiu, but he didn't stop her. He had a new plan for Xie Jiu, and asked Xiner to give her some pain so that she could be more obedient.

Seeing that he was still hiding after thanking him for the wine, he said displeasedly, "Brother and sister, although you work for Dr. Lin, you shouldn't not go back and take a look for several days.

My mother was paralyzed in bed for many days, and Xin'er couldn't take care of her alone. She brought some clothes and asked you to help wash her. Instead of washing her, you burned her mother's clothes. What's the point? "

Everything he said was Xie Jiu's fault. Xie Jiu was unfilial in the first place, and it was justifiable for Yang Xin to hit her.

Xie Jiu looked at him blankly, "I went out to do errands for Dr. Lin these days, and I just came back yesterday... Why are my clothes not washed and burned? I don't know."

Boss Yang frowned. Xin'er had just taken them to see the place where clothes were burned, which was right next to the Lin family, but the expression on her face when she thanked him for the wine didn't seem to be fake.

He was a little unsure, but he scolded, "The clothes were burned near Lin's house. Don't deny it."

Yang Xiner couldn't believe that Xie Jiu actually lied to her face, "Don't pretend, I brought my mother's clothes over for you to wash yesterday. How dare you say that I didn't come yesterday?"

Xie Jiu Hanhan nodded, "You came yesterday to ask me to leave here and go home to take care of my mother-in-law. I said that breaking my promise would bring bad reputation to the Yang family. I still need to ask my eldest brother to make the decision. You ran away when you were angry."

She turned to Boss Yang again, her soft eyes shining with joy that her child was about to return home, "Are my elder brother and sister-in-law coming to take me home?"

"Mom does miss you very much. We borrowed some money and paid back part of it first. You come back with us..." Boss Yang said.

Lin Shu snorted and interrupted him, "It's true that you should redeem it, but now it's more than six taels of silver."

After saying that, she pulled up Xie Jiu's sleeves, revealing her arms wrapped with gauze, "She went out to collect medicine, but she didn't get the medicine. Instead, she was injured. It cost me at least 50 taels of life-saving medicine. Redeem There are 56 taels in total. Pay the money to take the person away so that I don’t have to raise idle people.”

Boss Yang's words made Xie Jiu wary. He was not even willing to pay for Cai's medical treatment, but he was willing to pay her back to go home. She lowered her eyes and thought about it. Taking advantage of Lin Shu's opportunity to grab her arm, he put his other hand on her back. There were a few words written on it.

Mrs. Hu knew that her man wanted to get Xie Jiu back, and with her beauty, she could easily sell her for more than six taels.

But Lin Shu was talking about 56 taels, and the cost was too high.

There was no movement at all from Prince Xiao's Mansion. My husband specifically went to find the person who took over the job of thanking the wine at Prince Xiao's Mansion at that time, but that person refused to admit the matter.

Either King Xiao didn't care about Xie Jiu, or he fell asleep and refused to admit it, thus wasting all their planning.

They are now the most low-status prisoners. If they offer their thank-you wine to other dignitaries, there will be nothing they can do if the other party also sleeps in vain.

Therefore, it can only be sold to ordinary merchants who have some savings and dare not cause trouble, and the selling price cannot be high.

She shouted, "What kind of medicine is worth 50 taels of silver? This is not the capital, so don't blackmail people."

Lin Shu glanced at her coldly and said rudely, "Life-saving medicine, can't you see her face if you are blind? She rolled down the mountain, her abdomen was pierced by a sharp stone, and she had many wounds on her body. If she hadn't been discovered in time, now It’s just a corpse, bad luck.”

Boss Yang also cursed in his heart that he was unlucky. He brought her back so sick that he still had to see a doctor. It would be a pity to die. Hearing this, Lin Shu said again, "Come here today, which saves me a trip. Either pay back the money." Or let a man in good health come over to collect medicine for me to pay the bill."

Xie Jiu had no inner tone after being injured. After a few days, his face was still pale, and he really looked sick. After hearing Lin Shu's words, he looked at Boss Yang expectantly, "Brother, can you let your nephew take my place?"
