Reborn in Dunhuang, I am farming and doing business in the desert

After the mother and daughter walked for a while, they saw a group of people holding torches surrounding the gate of the Qin family's courtyard.

Qin Yang cried and hit Gao Qiuqiu, whose clothes were disheveled, "You bitch! My son has been gone for less than two months and you can't stand it anymore? How can you be so shameless?"

Gao Qiuqiu was annoyed by Yang's beating and pushed her down: "Are you done yet? I've already said that it has nothing to do with Xue Yi, why are you still holding on to it?"

The crowd laughed: "Gao, don't try to make excuses. We saw it with our own eyes."

"What did you see?" Gao Qiuqiu put his hands on his hips and yelled, "Are you all bored?"

Shen Heng grabbed Xue Yi and poked him on the head: "Tell me, what were you and Gao Qiuqiu doing in the haystack?"

Xue Yi gradually calmed down after being flustered, and said calmly: "Sister Gao asked me about Brother Qin and Shen Zhao, there is really nothing else."

Shen Heng slapped him: "How dare you mention my sister? Are you looking for death?"

Xue Yi sneered: "That's the fact, why can't I mention it?"

"What's the truth? My sister got engaged to the Qin family, and your sister hooked up with Qin Yi right after. Why didn't you mention it?" Shen Heng sneered, "I saw them hugging each other with my own eyes at the beginning."

Xue Yi said nothing, seeming to agree with Shen Heng's accusation.

Gao Qiuqiu was not happy, and immediately grabbed Yang and yelled at her: "Qin Yang, you are such a jerk! Your own son is not decent, but you slander me? In that case! Hurry and return my 5,000 yuan dowry! I want to divorce your family!"

Qin Yang was not as strong as Gao, and after being shaken by Gao, she felt angry and anxious, so she simply closed her eyes and pretended to faint.

When Qin Shu saw her mother fainted, she screamed in fright, rushed over to hug her and cried non-stop.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment at the situation, and even Shen Heng loosened his grip on Xue Yi.

Finally, Xue Yi stumbled back home, and Gao also hid in the house.

Seeing that there was nothing exciting to see, the villagers talked for a while and then dispersed one after another.

Shen Heng was also taken back home by his mother and sister.

Zhang Shanyue twisted her son's arm and said unhappily, "Why did you go and get involved again?"

Shen Heng laughed and said, "If I don't get involved, how can I know what good things they have done?

Tsk tsk! I didn't realize that Xue Yi dared to do such a thing. I really underestimated him!"

Shen Zhao was also very puzzled, because in his previous life, Xue Yi had always been very close to Qin Yi. The two were almost inseparable and closer than brothers.

What went wrong now? He was actually involved with Gao.

"You're still talking? Go to bed!" Zhang Shanyue was afraid that her son would not know the seriousness of the matter and talk nonsense in front of his daughter, so she immediately pushed him out of the room.

He turned around and said to his daughter, "Don't pay attention to the Qin family and the Xue family in the future. Don't let their dirty and smelly things pollute your ears."

Shen Zhao didn't care, but still obeyed his mother's wishes and said, "I know, I won't ask about it anymore."

Zhang Shanyue was satisfied and continued to sew clothes for her daughter.

After all, those strange clothes cannot be worn in public. My family is not short of money now, so we should still dress decently.

On the second day, Shen Zhao received a letter from his eldest brother and learned that they were in urgent need of some food and crossbows, so he sent a lot of them, spending 100,000 coins.

Three days later, he received another letter from his eldest brother saying that Wulei City had been breached, they had killed thousands of Huns, captured hundreds, and would return to Yumen Pass soon.

Shen Zhao felt numb looking at the piles of jewels and swords given by his elder brother.

If all these things were sold, her account might be worth tens of millions.

"Mom, let's go to Dunhuang County tomorrow." Shen Zhao wanted to get his father's title as soon as possible, and then get it for his elder brother and the others. Zhang Shanyue: "Then you have to tell your father, in case he has an errand and can't go."

"I'll ask my second brother to go to Tingyi and ask right now." Shen Zhao patted the flour on his hands and shouted at the door: "Second brother! Second brother!"

Shen Heng came out of the tofu workshop, holding a bowl of soy milk in his hand: "What are you doing?"

"You go to Tingyi and ask your father if he is free to go to Dunhuang County with us tomorrow?"

"Okay, I'll go right away." Shen Heng drank the soy milk in the bowl in one gulp and went to the sheepfold excitedly to get the horse.

Shen Zhao returned to the kitchen again, and while making dumplings, he said to his mother, "If Daddy is free, we can leave tomorrow morning."

Zhang Shanyue nodded: "Well, I will ask your aunt to come over and look after us for a few days. There is so much food at home, we can't do without anyone at night."

Not only is there food at home, but there is also a lot of meat hanging under the eaves. It's the end of the year now, and we can't let anyone steal it.

As the mother and daughter were talking, the door curtain opened and someone walked in.

Shen Zhao looked up and saw that it was Xue Wangshi who came.

I saw that she was holding a basket with some black and yellow steamed dumplings in it, which did not look tasty.

"What are you doing here?" Zhang Shanyue frowned and asked rudely.

Xue Wangshi looked embarrassed, but soon calmed down and said softly, "I made some mutton noodles at home. I'll bring them over for you to try."

Shen Zhao said calmly: "No need, our family has also packed the noodles, you should take it back and use it yourself."

Tomorrow is the twelfth lunar month, and many families are making dumplings to prepare for the La Festival, which is to commemorate their ancestors and gods.

Xue Wang's expression froze, tears welled up in her eyes, but she still insisted on putting the basket down: "This is also what my husband meant. We were wrong before and caused a lot of trouble for the Shen family. Now I just want to make up for it a little. Please don't refuse."

The woman spoke tactfully and with tears in her eyes, which made Zhang Shanyue feel a little embarrassed.

"In that case, I'll accept it." Zhang Shanyue stood up and put the dumplings in the basket into a large bowl.

She took out the freshly steamed dumplings and buns from her own steamer and put them in a basket, then handed them to Mrs. Xue Wang: "These are from my home, take them back and try them."

Xue Wang took it and smiled: "Then I am ashamed to accept it."

She glanced at Shen Zhao again and said softly, "Ah Zhao, it was my fault before. I hope you can forgive me."

Shen Zhao didn't answer.

In her previous life, she had little interaction with the two elders of the Xue family, and even after going to the capital, she had no contact with them. However, Xue Yi often came to the Qin family and framed her many times.

I didn't understand why at the time, and I thought he was simply speaking up for Qin Yi.

Now it seems that Xue Yi probably knew long ago that he was not the son of the Xue family, so he deliberately targeted himself who was very similar to Xue Lingyao.

But what does Xue Wangshi want to do? I don't think she is really here to ease the relationship between the two families.

"Well, then I'll go back." Seeing Shen Zhao didn't say anything, Mrs. Xue Wang didn't continue the topic and said softly, "A Zhao, come to my house when you have time. Lingyao is the same age as you. You can be good friends like before."

Shen Zhao looked at her with a half-smile: "Aunt Wang really thinks Xue Lingyao and I will become good friends?"

The two families have become so quarrelsome, how dare she say such things.

Doesn't Xue Wangshi have any brains when speaking or doing things? (End of this chapter)
