After hearing Xiao Yi's words, Mrs. Xiao was so angry that her head was buzzing. She slapped her thighs and was about to sit on the ground, still yelling.
"Oh my God! I've rebelled against you! Why doesn't God send a thunderbolt to kill these unfilial things!
My son is unfilial, my wife is unfilial, my mother-in-law has no life left!
Oh my god, come and take a look, my son and his wife are going to kill me! "
It was dinner time. Although Xiao Yi's family was at the entrance of the village, they had neighbors in front and behind them. On the left lived Aunt Tian's family, a woman with a notoriously long tongue.
After receiving the food, everyone was happily eating in the yard when they heard Mrs. Xiao's ups and downs yelling!
The good Aunt Tian was instantly inspired!
"Yo! The old witch from the Xiao family has become a monster again."
After saying that, he just leaned against the wall with his bowl in hand and watched the excitement.
Old Mrs. Xiao became even more excited when she saw her head lying on the wall, crying with runny nose and tears.
"Hey, my life is miserable! I raised my son in vain!
After marrying a daughter-in-law, you have forgotten your mother! ungrateful! It's a thing that was struck by lightning, and I don't care when I see my daughter-in-law bullying me. "
After being scolded, he jumped up again, pinched Xiao Yi hard several times, and cursed
"Why haven't you seen a woman in your eight hundred lifetimes?
Such a prodigal bitch has mesmerized you!
Useless stuff! "
Seeing that Old Mrs. Xiao had warmed up the place, Xiao Yuanhang and Xie Yujiao also appeared on the stage. Xie Yujiao got up and ran over, pulling Old Mrs. Xiao and persuading her.
"Hey, mother, you are too old to get angry!
Second sister-in-law is not sensible, just teach her slowly, but don't get so angry! After saying that, he turned to Xie Yushu and said
“Second sister-in-law, you look so effeminate and you still don’t admit your mistake to me!
It's a big mistake to be unfilial to your parents-in-law. Don't make your parents-in-law angry, and being divorced will ruin the reputation of our Xie family! "
Xiao Yuanhang also said righteously
“Second brother, do you still have any parents or brothers in your eyes?
See how angry you have made our mother?
Why don't you lead your wife to admit her mistake to her parents! You are such an adult, don’t you understand the most basic filial piety? "
"Ouch! This is so fresh!
Weird things happen every year, especially this year!
A well-educated scholar eats from his elder brother, uses his brother's food, points his nose and scolds his elder brother. Doesn't this count as picking up the bowl to eat and putting down the chopsticks to scold his mother?
You said your second brother is unfilial,
Your second brother worked hard on the battlefield for four or five years with his head raised, and gave eight acres of the ten acres of land he earned in exchange for a broken leg to his parents. All the land in the family was cultivated by your eldest brother, sister-in-law, and your nephew. You The second brother had a broken leg and had to help.
Your second brother didn’t get a cent of the money he got from selling the grain, so he spent it all on your education!
You are here to point your nose and scold your second brother for being unfilial, and you are not afraid of being struck by lightning. After all, he is also a scholar. The books of your sages did not teach you that elders and younger ones are in an orderly manner, and brothers, friends, and brothers are respectful. Your second brother is extremely benevolent and righteous to you. Do you have any respect for your second brother? "
Xie Yushu's words were spoken urgently, quickly and loudly. Zhao Yuanhang was speechless when he asked the question. After holding it in for a long time, he jumped out:
"You, shrew! I don't care about you!"
"Insulting my eldest sister-in-law, a scholar who loves etiquette, really opened my eyes to calling her sister-in-law!"
At this time, there were many people watching the excitement at the gate. After all, Mrs. Xiao's voice was very penetrating. It was summer, and everyone was eating out. She single-handedly attracted almost half the village. people!
The village chief, who happened to be not far away, also came over. After listening to Xie Yushu’s words, he said
"Ms. Xie's words are right. Yuanhang, your second brother spent so many years outside and was still lame. He worked together to get these ten acres of land and gave eight acres to your parents. Your parents gave these eight acres to you." I gave you the land, and I also gave you the money I used to hunt for at home. This reflects the brotherhood between you!
As a younger brother, it’s just that you didn’t help because your older brother was lame. It’s really inappropriate to point at your second brother and scold him!
I really don’t know how you got admitted to this scholar! "
Village chief Xiao Zhengde, a middle-aged man in his forties, is not only the village chief of Fenghuangzui Village, but also the patriarch of the Xiao family.
Unlike the clan leader Xie Dafu, he was extremely fair in his dealings and had high prestige in the village and clan. He was still a boy and had been educated for several years.
The most important thing is that although he is young, he has seniority. Mr. Xiao has to call him uncle, and Xiao Yi and his generation have to call him grandpa. Even if Xiao Yuanhang is a scholar, he can't show off his authority in front of him!
"Uncle Zhengde!
Grandpa! "
Everyone in the courtyard got up to say hello one after another!
Xiao Yuanhang was scolded. Although he was dissatisfied, he still explained
"I, I just saw my mother angry, and I got a little anxious for the moment!"
"That's right, uncle, you can't blame Yuanhang for this. It's the second eldest brother, Mr. Xie, who hid money behind my back, went to the city to buy good things, and didn't know how to respect me. This is unfilial! I can't talk about them yet!
I told them they didn't listen, so the fourth child said something fair for me! "
Mrs. Xiao didn't want to make a big fuss. She planned to come over and give the second son money, take the things and leave.
Unexpectedly, when I came here, I smelled the smell of fried eggs with mountain leeks. It was so fragrant that I planned to have a meal. Then I saw Qu Xiaodie again. When I heard that Xie Yushu had given her thirty taels of silver, Mrs. Xiao went crazy. Things went off the rails and made a big fuss!
Originally, they were not afraid of a big commotion, as filial piety overwhelms others, but Xiao Yi and Mr. Xie were even less able to resist her in front of everyone.
Unexpectedly, the first person to be recruited was the patriarch Xiao Zhengde. This Xiao Zhengde actually spoke for Xie Yushu. Even though Mrs. Xiao was a hundred dissatisfied, she was frightened in front of Xiao Zhengde, thinking that she might miss forty taels of white money. I am so angry that my heart aches and my liver hurts.
At this time, the people at the door holding bowls and watching the excitement were all talking about how sad it was that Xiao Yi had given them eight acres of land, while his family only had two acres of land!
Fortunately, Xie Yushu collected some valuable medicinal materials, otherwise she would have starved to death.
Of course, there are also those who say that Xie Yushu is not able to live a good life. She has no land in her family, so after finally selling some money, she hired a martial arts master for her children, which is a waste of money!
Of course, there are also those who think that Xie Yushu is jealous of her wealth and is a joke.
Generally speaking, there are still many sensible people, and there are even those who are not afraid of Mrs. Xiao and directly shout into the courtyard.
"Old Mrs. Xiao, the palms and backs of your hands are full of flesh. Don't go too far. I heard from my family that Mrs. Xie gave her father-in-law one tael of silver to buy food in the city!
One tael of silver is enough to buy three days of food and there is still some left!
They are not unfilial, right?
Xiao Zhengde also heard about this, and continued what the man said:
"Our eldest and second child also talked about it when they came back. With the one tael of silver given by Mrs. Xie, you bought food and cloth, and you have everything to eat and wear. The children have indeed fulfilled their filial piety.
Moreover, Xiao Yi gave you eight acres of land a long time ago. When you separated, you said that these eight acres of land should be Xiao Yi's filial piety. From now on, you don't need to take care of him. Why are you making trouble now?
Xiao Yi is lame in one leg, and he has a wife and children to feed, so life is not easy. They are all his own children, so don't go too far, you two. "
Old man Xiao is a good man to the outside world, and he either doesn't stand up when things happen, or he lives in mud. Hearing what Xiao Zhengde said, he just nodded obediently, neither saying yes nor no.
