Chen Xingzu and Chen Tingyao beside him hurriedly returned the gift. Although Ye Meiniang was inconvenienced, she leaned slightly. Chen Xingzu hurriedly said: "The Liudong family is kind to my Chen family. When my daughter was forcibly married to Wang Tianci, it was the Liudong family who took action. Help me, so that my little girl will not fall into the pit of fire, not to mention the pressure from the fish shop to collect the fish caught by my Chen family. Such a great kindness, it doesn’t matter if I borrow my little girl for a few more months. Return Please don’t ask Mr. Liu to give such a big gift again.”

After saying that, Chen Xingzu frowned and looked at Chen Bing, scolding in a low voice: "Why are there no rules? Liu Dong's family is your great benefactor. What are you doing there? Why don't you return the favor quickly to Liu Dong's family?"

Chen Bing turned around slightly and saw Liu Zhiyuan's serious look. He greeted him with "Big devil, big devil" in his heart, but then he thought about it. He had indeed received many favors from him, not to mention being forced to marry Wang Tianci by his mother-in-law. For one thing, it was his credit for collecting the red-tailed white-water fish in the first place. In addition, I now feel attached to him. Thinking of this, I thanked him and said a deep blessing to him.

Liu Zhiyuan was amused in his heart, but he said calmly: "Now that the family has been reunited, I will take my leave." After that, he winked at Chen Bing, turned around and walked out of the courtyard. Chen Xingzu walked all the way to the door. Return home.

Ye Meiniang was happy in her heart. She pulled Chen Bing over and looked left and right. She reached out and touched her face again. The tip of her nose was slightly sore and she said distressedly: "Er Niang, you have lost weight. You must have suffered a lot in the Liu family."

Ye Meiniang didn't say anything, but in her heart she was unwilling to "lend" her daughter to the Liu family. Now that she saw that her daughter was thinner than a month ago, she felt even more angry and said, "What's wrong with the Liu family?" My daughter is not a maid in his family, so how can she make someone so thin? Er Niang, from now on, please don’t care about the affairs of the Liu family."

Chen Xingzu collected the fishing nets in the courtyard and entered the house. Hearing Ye Meiniang's words, he frowned slightly and said: "Why does Meiniang speak like this? Then the Liu Dong family is also a great benefactor to Er Niang. This time it is the old lady of the Liu family." Birthday, you should go and help. This trip to the Liu family is not about sightseeing, and how can you do anything without losing weight? Hey, I think you are just too spoiled to the second mother."

Ye Meiniang put her backhand on her waist, stared at Chen Xingzu, and said: "Second mother is my daughter, the flesh and blood I gave birth to in ten months of pregnancy. What's wrong with me feeling sorry for her? What's wrong with me caring about her? I don't So what if you want her to help the Liu family? You could tell me, I am a mother, so I can't do it for my daughter?"

Chen Xingzu wanted to say something, but he was worried about the child in Ye Meiniang's belly. He opened his mouth and swallowed the words that came to his lips.

Chen Bing did not expect that his mother, who had always been gentle in temperament, would have such a tough side, so he quickly advised Ye Meiniang: "Mom, am I not being polite in front of you? My daughter promises you that if something like this happens again in the future, my daughter will definitely do it." If you don’t go, I’ll stay at home with my mother and the baby in her belly.”

Ye Meiniang tapped Chen Bing's forehead and said, "You are the only one who can speak."

Chen Bing supported Ye Meiniang, winked at Chen Xingzu repeatedly, and said, "My mother is heavy. Standing for a long time is not good for the baby in her belly. I will help you into the house to have a good rest." Chen Xingzu understood and said: "Yes. Yes, Er Niang is right, your health is urgent, go back to the house quickly, I, I will come in to accompany you."

Ye Meiniang rolled her eyes at Chen Xingzu. Chen Xingzu shook his head helplessly, and then he and Chen Bing helped Ye Meiniang into the house.

After settling Ye Meiniang, Chen Bing left the house, but was quietly pulled into his house by Chen Tingyao. There was no one around. He gently closed the door and asked in a low voice: "How is it? Have you been kidnapped this month? Where? Do you know how worried I am about you? If it weren’t for taking care of my mother, I would have gone looking for you long ago!”

Chen Bing apologized and said, "Hey, I made my brother worried." Then Chen Bing told how he was knocked unconscious and kidnapped in the past month, what happened to him on the carriage, and what happened in the villa in Huzhou. Even when he finally sneaked out and met Liu Zhiyuan who came to rescue him, he told Chen Tingyao everything about Dongshan Villa and Tiaoxi Village. He only mentioned the relationship between himself and Liu Zhiyuan. The affection between them disappeared without saying anything. Finally, he said: "If I hadn't met Zhixing in the end, I'm afraid I would have been captured by Na Ada."

Chen Tingyao listened first

When I arrived at Wujia foot shop, I was really angry. Later, I heard Chen Bing said what Yang Naizhi said, and I felt surprised again. After I talked about what happened at Huzhou Zhuangzi, I felt a little nervous and scared. When I talked about why When Liu Zhiyuan rescued him, another big stone seemed to have fallen in his heart. When he finally explained what happened in Tiaoxi Village and the 1,800 acres of land, he was greatly praised. After listening, Chen Tingyao sighed and said, "Hey , I didn’t expect that Er Niang would have so many adventures since the beginning of the year, and the experiences in the past month have been full of ups and downs. How about Liu Dong and Liu Zhiyuan, are you okay?"

Chen Bing nodded and said, "He has always been very good to me and takes good care of me."

Chen Tingyao said: "That's good. That day after I learned that you were promised to Wang Tianci by your mother-in-law, I went to find him to find a way to rescue you. Do you know what the first thing I asked him was?"

Chen Bing shook his head and looked at Chen Tingyao in confusion.

Chen Tingyao continued: "I asked him, do you like Er Niang? He didn't say anything, he just took out a purse from his arms and showed it to me. I recognized that purse, it was the one my mother embroidered for you with her own hands. He was right I said that this purse was the most precious thing to him. No matter where he went or what he did, he kept this purse close to his body. I understood what he meant at that time and told him what happened to you. Yes. You just talked about a lot of things you experienced with him, so I asked you this."

Chen Bing's face turned red and she thought to herself: "It turns out that the purse my mother embroidered for me is in his place! I always thought I lost it somewhere! This big devil didn't even say a word to me!" Then she changed her mind. I thought, "Since my brother has already talked about this, I might as well explain everything to him."

Thinking about this, Chen Bing gritted his teeth and simply took out the jade pendant given by Liu Zhiyuan from his arms and said to Chen Tingyao: "Brother, please see, this jade pendant was given to me by Zhixing. He said it was an ancestral heirloom of his Liu family. There are two pairs in total, one pair belongs to him and his brother, and the other pair belongs to his two sisters." After that, she handed the jade pendant to Chen Tingyao. At the end, she added with a smile, "This is also my personal collection. thing."

Chen Tingyao looked at the jade pendant in his hand, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "You gave him the purse, and he gave you the jade pendant. Are you two privately engaged for life?"

Chen Bing twisted his sleeves with both hands, blushed, and nodded slightly.

Chen Tingyao sighed and said: "But my Chen family is just a country villager, and his Liu family is not only an official family, but also a big family. It is wrong to not be a family. What if his family opposes you? What if his family insists on it?"

If he marries another woman, what should you do? Hey, have you ever thought about this?"

Chen Bing was startled. Since the two of them became friends, they have naturally regarded each other as their partners. These questions raised by Chen Tingyao have never occurred to her. It can be seen from Chen Bing's understanding of Liu Zhiyuan that he is not

There will be the kind of people who will fail her. She nodded in her heart and replied to Chen Tingyao: "I am not interested in the Liu family's family fortune. Judging from the situation of my own anger, after a few years, my Chen family will definitely not

Worse than the one from the Liu family. What I like is a person who knows what he does and his heart that treats me sincerely. He would even risk his life for me. How could such a person let me down?

Brother, he told me that he wanted to take me to see the beautiful country of Dachu; I also told him that I would accompany him to every corner of Dachu. I like him, I really like him

he."

Chen Tingyao knew what it was like to like someone. He still sighed and said: "Okay, since you have made up your mind, I can't say anything more, brother. I will help you two, and will never be against you two."

If my father and mother object in the future, I will reconcile it for you two. I hope my mother can marry someone who fulfills her own wishes, and I understand all of this."

Chen Bing felt happy after hearing this, and said with a slight smile: "Then I will thank my brother first. But I still have to ask my brother not to tell my father and mother about this matter. After all, the two families are not in the right family, and my father's

I am a bit old-fashioned as a person. I want to wait until the right opportunity comes in the future and I will tell them personally."

Chen Tingyao nodded and said, "Don't worry, I don't want my father and mother to know so soon. There is no benefit in knowing now. I can understand this."

The two brothers talked for a while about the self-made fire business.

After hearing about the incident and the interesting events in the village for more than a month, Chen Bing left Chen Tingyao's house, but she was wondering: "Why didn't my brother ask me about Yun Niang?"...

At Ye Meiniang's strong request, Chen Bing slept with Ye Meiniang at night, but Chen Xingzu was kicked by Ye Meiniang into Chen Tingyao's house. The father and son had to squeeze into the same bed and make do. Ye Meiniang had a lot to say.

She told Chen Bing that she also had many questions to ask Chen Bing. The two of them kept nagging until midnight, and then they slowly fell asleep. Early the next morning, Chen Bing had no idea.

I got up early as usual.

It was around midnight that Chen Bing woke up, and this was the most peaceful sleep she had had in more than a month. She slowly sat up, while Ye Meiniang beside her was sleeping soundly.

After putting on her clothes, she covered Ye Meiniang with the quilt and quietly left the house.

Chen Bing washed up briefly. She was worried that Ye Meiniang would wake up hungry, so instead of doing Tai Chi as usual, she hurried to the kitchen and saw a plate of prepared steamed cakes already placed on the kitchen table. She

He picked one up, took a small bite, and said to himself: "Hey, in the past month or so since I have been away, it seems that my father and brother have learned how to make food. Although the steamed cake is a bit stiff, it is delicious to eat.

But it’s also sweet.”
