Chapter 51 - Sour
The people around saw Zhao Zhan’s expression and dared not speak. Even if there was something they wanted to ask, they kept shut.
Anyway, they couldn’t bear to see such a delicate woman be bullied.
How?
A poor hunter was just learning how to pamper his wife.
He didn’t know the immensity of the heavens and earth.
Yue Jiaojiao could clearly see what these people were thinking, but jealousy was a normal thing, so what could she do? In the future, there would only be more and more things that would make these people jealous. She wouldn’t be able to do anything else all day if she cared about all these opinions.
Since Yue Jiaojiao did not mind, Zhao Zhan did not care about what others said either. Under the watchful eyes of so many people, he turned around and squatted down beside Yue Jiaojiao, like a loyal knight guarding her. “Do your feet hurt standing there for so long? I’ll carry you home.”
“It does hurt a little.” Yue Jiaojiao lay on his back as if no one else was around. “I’m a little hungry. ”
“I won’t work in the fields for now. I’ll go home and make you something good to eat.”
The two of them gradually walked away, and the rest of the people immediately burst into an uproar when they saw their figures disappear.
“How can Zhao Zhan pamper his wife like this?”
“From what they just said, she’s not even going to cook at home?”
“Zhao Zhan is busy hunting. It’s fine if his wife doesn’t work, but how can she not even cook for the man?”
“I don’t think Zhao Zhan will ever be satisfied if he keeps pampering her like this. Maybe she’ll run away with a rich man one day, or she’ll go home after spending enough time with Zhao Zhan. With our village’s conditions, how many days do you think she will survive here?”
While they were making sarcastic remarks, Yue Jiaojiao, who was almost home, poked Zhao Zhan’s face and said, “Wait a minute. Don’t go to the cave yet. The others will definitely follow us.”
Zhao Zhan obediently turned and went to the thatched cottage.
Yang Dashan and Li Miao squatted in front of their courtyard. When they saw the two of them coming back, they immediately got up, “You’re back?”
Yue Jiaojiao patted Zhao Zhan’s back, signaling for him to put her down. Then, she walked up to Li Miao. “Li Miao, have you clarified the splitting issue with them?”
“It’s all done. They gave us two pieces of land.”
Li Miao wanted to say something, but she hesitated and didn’t continue.
Yue Jiaojiao understood and opened the door to the courtyard to let them in. She took out ten silver and said, “Li Miao, this is the down payment for you.”
“Jiaojiao…” Li Miao’s voice was trembling as she sobbed. “I really don’t know how to thank you.”
Yang Dashan’s lips moved and he stuck close to Li Miao’s side. “Thank you. Thank you so much.”
“There’s nothing to thank me for. I’m just giving you the silver that you’ll be paying in a few months’ time in advance. Take these ten silver as a deposit for helping us plant the soybeans and millet peppers. When you collect them and weigh them, we’ll get them back.”
“Both of our fields will have soybeans and millet peppers,” Li Miao glanced at Yang Dashan. Seeing that the other party had no objection, his tone became more determined, “These soybean sprouts and millet peppers can be harvested at least two seasons a year. It’s more cost-effective than growing grain, and the price is higher than grain. We can just spend money to buy grain to eat.”
“I went to look for Li Zheng before I came. He approved of us building a house. I want to ask for a spot next to your house. Do you mind?”
“Of course not. We don’t have any neighbors. If you can live next to us, I can come and play with you when I’m bored in the future.”
Anyway, they couldn’t bear to see such a delicate woman be bullied.
