Chapter 307: Get Together
Sun Ruhua said as she helped her up.
Patting her hands, she said, "I know you are a good woman. Why don't you tell me why you don't want to go back to your parents' home? You have no husband or children left, and the only one you can rely on is your parents' home. Why don't you go back?"
When talking about her mother's home, Liu Mingyue shook her head and shed tears: "I can't go back. If I go back, my parents will sell me!"
Then Liu Mingyue spoke intermittently about what had happened since the flood!
It turned out that when the flood came, her husband and children did not run out of the house, only she ran out. She hugged an old tree stump and floated out of the water, saving her life.
When the flood in the village receded, she went to look for her husband and children, but they were all gone.
"Auntie, it's all gone! Woo woo ..."
Sun Ruhua clapped her hands: "You are also a poor child!"
Finally, she thought about going to her mother's house, but on the night she went there, when she got up to go to the toilet, she heard her parents telling her two brothers that they would sell her the next day in exchange for some silver for the family's living. So she ran away overnight!
I accidentally fell into the river while crossing the bridge, and when I woke up I found myself here!
"Auntie, I really have nowhere to go! Please don't chase me away!"
Sun Ruhua burst into tears when she heard this.
"You've been through so much, these days haven't been easy!"
Liu Mingyue also cried...
Finally, Sun Ruhua looked at her and said, "But, child, Zhili saved you with good intentions, but now the whole village is full of rumors, and he is afraid that it will damage your reputation..."
"Auntie, I'm in this state now. I'm afraid I don't have a place to stay. These rumors can't hurt me!"
"Yeah, you're right. I'm going to tell you something from the bottom of my heart. You should say something back to me!"
Liu Mingyue wiped her tears and said, "Auntie, please tell me!"
"You don't have anyone in your husband's family now, and Zhili is also single and has no children. Besides, the matter between you two has caused such a big uproar in the village. If you don't mind, why don't you stay with Zhili?"
After Sun Ruhua finished speaking, she looked at Liu Mingyue.
After Liu Mingyue heard what she said, her whole face turned red...
Sun Ruhua didn't urge her.
But Sun Ruhua added: "Zhili is actually a pitiful person..."
Then he confessed all of Xie Zhili's past, including the fact that he was ill.
After hearing this, Liu Mingyue was stunned, with tears still hanging on her lower eyelashes, "I didn't expect Brother Xie to be so pitiful!"
Sun Ruhua nodded: "That's right!"
"To be honest, he originally didn't want to remarry in this life. I just couldn't stand it, so I mentioned it. If you don't care, just pretend I didn't say anything. After all, the matter of this child is a big deal. If you really get together, I'm afraid it will delay you!"
Sun Ruhua stood up and said, "It's getting late, I have to go prepare dinner!"
Liu Mingyue also stood up. Sun Ruhua couldn't help but patted her hands and said, "You can also consider this matter. Zhili did some bad things in the past, but behind closed doors, he is very good to his wife. What do we women want in life? Isn't it just to have someone who understands us?"
Liu Mingyue completely agrees with this point!
Sun Ruhua said this without lingering for long.
Liu Mingyue thought about what Sun Ruhua had just said, grabbed the edge of the bed, bit her lip and began to think.
Seeing Sun Ruhua's happy face, Xie Jiaojiao asked her, "What did you say to Liu Mingyue that made her look so happy?"
Ever since Xie Jiaojiao didn't mind her association with Xie Zhili last time, Sun Ruhua dared to mention the three words "Xie Zhili" in front of Xie Jiaojiao.
So she repeated to Xie Jiaojiao what she had just said to Liu Mingyue.
Xie Jiaojiao listened and looked at Sun Ruhua in surprise: "Mom, you can say these words!"
"What's there to be unspeakable?" Sun Ruhua said while cutting vegetables.
"After all, I am the one who suffers because of her fate, and Zhili's fate is also miserable. Since we are both miserable, we might as well get together as a couple. Who knows, our lives will be better!"
Speaking of this, Sun Ruhua couldn't help but smile.
"You are just a person who doesn't care about anything else!"
"If I don't worry about you, what should I worry about? Besides, the house is ready, and the crops are planted in the fields. When are you going to Jiangbo City? You don't have any children yet, so you can't be apart for too long!"
What does this say?
"You're still driving me away!"
"Mother is not trying to drive you away. Mother is afraid that you will not be with your uncle. Your uncle's family is rich and powerful. What if someone with ulterior motives sees that you are not around and comes to stay? What will you do then?"
Xie Jiaojiao added more fire to the stove: "What can I do? At worst, I can just divorce him! With the money I've earned in the past few years, even if we do nothing, I can still support you and Zhiyi. What are you afraid of!"
Sun Ruhua felt that Xie Jiaojiao didn't understand what she meant, so she sighed and said, "Forget it, you don't understand what I'm saying! There's nothing to do these few days anyway, so pack up and go to Jiangbo City to find your son-in-law tomorrow!"
Xie Jiaojiao disagreed: "My bricks are still drying, I have to take advantage of these days to build a house for Niu Er and Xie Zhili, otherwise the weather will get cold in a while, and I also have to set up this soy sauce factory, there are still many things to do..."
While they were cooking, Cuizhu, Hanlu and Wang Xiuer were packing the dried mushrooms. The first batch of mushrooms had become damp because they were stored in the cellar, and some were even infested with worms and were no longer usable. Xie Jiaojiao asked them to take out the usable ones and dry them every day.
Moreover, she had collected a lot of dry goods in the village during this period. If Gao Shen came to ask for these dry goods, she could sell them for some silver.
In fact, she was thinking of going to the town to buy some tofu to make some fermented tofu, but it didn't grow, Zhang Tofu said. After the flood, they couldn't buy beans. Without beans, how could they make tofu?
However, there are actually places that sell beans, but they are all grain and oil shops. The beans sold in this shop are more expensive than those sold by farmers. If he buys them to make tofu, he might even lose money in the end. So he thought, it would be better to take a good rest...
Xie Jiaojiao thought so too. She had actually inquired in the neighboring or distant villages, and it was feared that there would be no harvest of beans this year. She was now pinning her hopes on Jiang Weinan. She had written to Jiang Weinan before, asking him to find a way to get her a batch of beans so that she could continue her soy sauce business!
……
Liu Mingyue didn't come out for dinner that night, and Xie Jiaojiao originally wanted Cuizhu to send some to her, but Sun Ruhua took over the job directly.
Liu Mingyue never expected that Sun Ruhua would bring her food. Thinking about what Sun Ruhua said to her in the afternoon, to be honest, she felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
