Chapter 285 What is this for?
Yang Shulin nervously turned his head to look at the door, but saw no one coming.
Then he frowned and whispered:
"Mom, how can it be so fast?
She always had the key hanging on her chest, and she was extra alert when she slept, so I didn't get a chance!"
Mother Shulin slapped him with a look of dismay and said angrily:
“You are such a useless person, you can’t even get a key!
Women like to hear something nice, so why don’t you just say a few nice words to coax her?
It’s hard to say on weekdays, but is it also hard to say on the bed?”
Hearing his mother say this, Yang Shulin felt embarrassed and angry.
He hasn't touched that woman yet!
But it is really inconvenient to tell this fact. If I tell his mother, I am afraid that she will scold him for being useless again.
Seeing that his face was flushed, Mother Shulin thought he was shy, so she continued to teach him.
"On weekdays, when she is working, you should go over and talk to her more often.
If you can't coax her, then steal!
If you can’t steal, then rob!
If that doesn't work, just beat her up. She's just a woman, after all, if you beat her up, how can she not give it to you?"
Yang Shulin recalled the sight of Lu Qingqing shooting an arrow from the wall, and shuddered again.
His mother had no idea that the people in the North Courtyard dared to kill people.
He doesn't understand anything!
Thinking of this, he said impatiently:
"Mom, I'll get the things in her box sooner or later, so stop pushing me. It's so annoying!"
Mother Shulin originally wanted to teach her eldest son more carefully, but seeing that he was already annoyed, she could only remind him:
"Okay, I won't say any more.
But besides food, there must be a lot of silver and money in her box.
Keep a close eye on her and don't let her move back to the North Courtyard!"
Yang Shulin nodded perfunctorily.
In the yard, Jian Ya and Ting Mei were washing clothes.
In the kitchen next door, Bai Xing'er added some snow and a few pieces of firewood to the pot.
He waited until the water temperature rose before scooping it into a wooden bucket and carrying it towards the two girls.
After she married into the Yang family, it was these two little girls that she interacted with the most.
These two girls look especially like her when she was a child. Every time she sees them, it’s like seeing herself back then.
After she took the initiative to show kindness, the two children also returned the kindness in their own way.
As we interact with each other, we become more familiar with each other.
When she brought the hot water over, Jianya was shocked when she saw it.
She turned her head nervously to look at the door, and when she saw that her mother didn't come out, she whispered:
"Sister-in-law, mother doesn't allow us to wash clothes with hot water, saying it's a waste of firewood.
Take it back quickly, or your mother will scold you again if she sees it!"
Bai Xing'er looked at the two people's red, frozen hands and said distressedly:
"Didn't I tell you to wait until I boil some water before washing?
Look at how frozen your hands are. If you wash them with cold water, they will rot."
The bastard shrank her frozen hands and said nervously:
"Sister-in-law, I know you're doing this for our own good, but mother won't let you do it.
Before, Tingmei secretly used hot water to wash, and her mother saw it. She punished her by making her sleep in the woodshed. She almost froze to death that night!
Better take it back quickly, quickly!"
As she said that, Jian Ya strode forward, lifted the bucket with great effort, and wanted to bring the hot water back.
Bai Xing'er reached out and pressed the bucket, soothingly saying:
"Good boy, sister-in-law knows you are doing this for my own good.
Don’t worry about this matter. It’s still a long way from spring!
After a winter, you won’t have any more hands to use.”
As the three were talking, the door was pushed open with a creaky sound.
Jianya quickly stood in front of the bucket and tried to block it with her thin body.
When she saw that it was her eldest brother who came out, Jian Ya was obviously relieved.
His elder brother usually doesn't like to meddle in their trivial matters, so it should be fine.
Bai Xing'er stood straight and didn't hide at all.
She will live in the Yang family in the future, so she should make her own decisions on some matters.
These days, she has also gotten to know the Yang family a little better.
Now, they all rely on themselves for their livelihood. If we don’t take over the management of the family this time, it will be difficult to take it over in the future.
Yang Shulin saw Bai Xing'er in the yard, walked over and said with a smile:
"Xing'er, it's so cold in the yard, why don't you go back inside?
Don’t worry about the clothes, they are the ones who do the work on weekdays.”
As he said that, Yang Shulin wanted to pull Bai Xing'er back to the house.
Bai Xing'er took a step back to avoid his hand and said softly:
"It's winter, and there's nothing much to do. I saw they were freezing after taking a cold shower, so I boiled some hot water for them."
Yang Shulin nodded indifferently, his eyes focused on her neck.
Hanging there was the key he wanted.
Before Yang Shulin could say anything, Shulin's mother came out.
She spotted the steaming wooden barrel immediately, walked over in two or three steps, pointed at it and said:
“What did I tell you?
This firewood can be exchanged for money, so use it sparingly.
You two little stinky girls, washing with cold water will freeze you to death, right? "
Jian Ya and Ting Mei were so scared that they huddled aside. Bai Xing'er stepped forward and stood in front of them.
"Mom, I boiled this water. Look at the two children's hands. They are frozen. If they don't wash them with warm water, they will have to take medicine in the future."
After hearing this, Mother Shulin said sarcastically:
"My two daughters are not so squeamish. Everyone knows that washing clothes with hot water is comfortable. Why are you pretending to be a good person?
"Jian Ya, Ting Mei, go back and continue washing. If you dare to use hot water today, you won't have dinner!"
The two girls were so scared that they shrank their necks and continued to wash clothes.
Bai Xing'er straightened her back and stared at Shulin Niang:
"Mom, since you say that, I'll have dinner with my two sisters."
When Mother Shulin saw her like this, she was so angry that she jumped up and down and cursed:
"It's outrageous, it's really outrageous, the daughter-in-law dares to ride on the mother-in-law's head and shit!
I told them not to eat, so they are not allowed to eat!"
Bai Xing'er ignored her jumping up and down, and said to Yang Shulin with a cold face:
"Master, please return the twenty kilograms of food I lent you earlier. I have something to do in the North Courtyard."
Yang Shulin looked at her cold face and was not sure what she wanted to do.
But going back to the North Courtyard is not a good thing!
Thinking of this, he hurried over:
"Xing'er, what are you doing?
All the food was eaten at home, and the remaining food would not last for a few days.
I will definitely return it to you after we harvest the grain!"
Bai Xing'er no longer smiled at him:
"We agreed on a loan, so now I want to return the food I lent you, is that okay?
No matter where this matter goes, I am always right, what do you think?"
Seeing her like this, Yang Shulin knew that she was really angry, so he turned to his mother and said:
"Mom, what are you doing?
Xing'er just used two more pieces of firewood, why are you complaining about it?
There is enough firewood at home to last until spring.
Look at what has happened. Now Xing'er has to go back to her parents' home. How can our family save face if this gets out?
Why don't you just ask her to boil some hot water?
If you ask me, I will wash clothes with hot water from now on!"
Mother Shulin looked at her son who was speaking harshly. Although she knew he was acting, she was still hurt by his words.
