Chapter 948: The Young Marquis's Broken-Engagement Wife (Extra 6)
Young Military Doctor Xiao Meng (Part 2)
Most of the military households in Youcheng live in this area, so there are quite a lot of people coming here.
Even though these people are all military households, there are still quite a few young men and women with good looks or good conversation.
Men are born into military households, and apart from climbing up the career ladder by becoming soldiers, they basically have no other better prospects.
Women can often change their fate by getting married.
So there were the most people in front of Meng Jifan today, and most of them were women.
Usually there are older military doctors here, and when a young man shows up occasionally, he really stands out from the crowd.
"Mom, let's go over there too!" An ordinary-looking girl tugged at the woman next to her. Seeing many of her friends gathering around the young military doctor, she also had an idea.
Fang Yunniang glanced at her stepdaughter and said nothing.
It would be wrong to agree at this time, and it would also be wrong not to agree.
He took a quick look at the women lined up there. They were all considered to be the most beautiful among the military households. Compared with them, his stepdaughter had no advantage.
Come to think of it, there has never been a golden phoenix flying out of a mountain nest. Most of them were the daughters of officials who were exiled and in trouble and were bought back by military households who could not find wives. They gave birth to children for them and took care of the household chores for them.
The good upbringing was passed on to sons and daughters, and the superior appearance optimized the appearance of the offspring.
Then there will be this group of young people with prominent priorities.
But some things that are ingrained in our bones cannot be changed, such as narrow vision.
However, Fang Yunniang's stepdaughter was the daughter of her current husband and a native village girl, so she was educated by her for several years, but she didn't make much progress.
Speaking of which, Fang Yunnian had a really miserable time in the first few years after she came here.
When she arrived at the mine that day, almost everyone knew that she had a miscarriage. So even though she was good-looking, many people thought that Fang Yunniang could not have children.
There are lustful men among the military households, but few are willing to buy a childless woman just for her looks.
In the first few years, Fang Yunniang worked in the mine with the older women.
As for Huo Qingyang, he could hardly protect himself, so why would he care about her?
This "couple" who were once "deeply in love" have basically become strangers with hatred.
There were even a few times when Fang Yunniang would deliberately give Huo Qingyang less food in order to get revenge.
Whenever Huo Qingyang got the chance, he would report Fang Yunniang for being lazy.
After several years of this tit-for-tat, Fang Yunniang accidentally saved a child from a nearby military household while she was out shopping with the old women - a boy.
A few days later, the boy's family came to the mine and gave her some things as a thank you.
After a few visits, she became familiar with the widower man of the house. After finding out that he already had a son and a daughter, Fang Yunniang became interested in him.
Basically, the man was a dozen years older than her and not very good-looking, but if he could take her away from the mine, then he would be her chance.
After showing his goodwill again and again, the man bought Fang Yunniang back from the mine - after his wife left, it was natural for him to find a woman to help him with housework. The most important thing was that this woman could not give birth to children, so his current child would not suffer.
This is actually the contradiction between military households and mine workers, because most of the women who were bought were the workers' sisters, wives, or concubines like Fang Yunniang.
Slaves are bought and sold!
Seeing Fang Yunniang didn't answer, and seeing her neighbor and the young doctor "talking and laughing", the stepdaughter stomped on Fang Yunniang's foot and said, "What are you daydreaming about? Come with me."
After saying that, without waiting for the other party to react, he dragged Fang Yunniang to the back of the line.
Fang Yunniang had no choice but to compromise in the end.
When it was their turn, Fang Yunniang could hardly believe her eyes. She stared blankly at Meng Jifan and subconsciously called out in her once shy voice, "Cousin!"
I have to say that Fang Yunniang's eyesight is still very sharp. Even though Meng Jifan and Huo Qingyang are only 50% to 60% similar, she still recognized them.
In fact, it was not so much that she recognized his appearance, but rather that Fang Yunniang saw again the confident and high-spirited look in Huo Qingyang's eyes when she first met him.
Being called "cousin" by an old woman, Meng Jifan was very embarrassed: "Madam, you have the wrong person! How can I be your cousin? I am not the right age!"
After being reminded of this, Fang Yunniang came to her senses. At this time, she just thought that they were similar, so she didn't care anymore and even apologized to Meng Jifan.
During the treatment, Meng Jifan rolled up his sleeves because they were a bit cumbersome. Fang Yunniang's eyes fell on the red "mark" on his wrist and she went crazy: "How is this possible? Why is this happening?"
