After Xie Yushu finished explaining the reason, Xiao Zhengde said to Mrs. Xiao and Mr. Xiao
"Since the child buys those things to replenish his body and heal his legs, you parents can just be happy for your child. Why are you doing all this nonsense here?"
Old man Xiao said unwillingly
"What happened to this donkey cart depends entirely on this girl, I don't believe it!
Besides, even if this donkey cart is half the size of the girl named Qu, it is half the size of my Xiao family. Why can’t I take it back? "
"Yes, the village chief, and Widow Liu, we, the father and mother, have no one to take care of us yet, so they are left to be taken care of, and they are not afraid of losing their lifespan!"
Mrs. Xiao said.
"That's right, even if my second brother is treating his leg, he doesn't need Widow Liu to serve him! With so much work at home, my parents are so tired that they can't even stand up straight!"
Xiao Zhengde looked at Xiao Yan and Xie Yujiao who were full of mouths, and thought to himself
"I'm so used to lazy guys like you, it's strange that it's easy! Besides, Xiao Dayong's family must be the ones who are tired! Old man Xiao occasionally follows him to the ground. When has Mrs. Xiao ever been in the ground?"
However, Old Man Xiao and Mrs. Xiao killed Xiao Yi and his wife for being unfilial. No matter how reasonable Xiao Yi was, he would still suffer!
Being filial to your parents is a matter of course.
Logically speaking, Xiao Yi also assumed his share of the support obligations.
Eight acres of land, coupled with filial piety during the New Year and festivals, it is not considered unfilial!
The same goes for Xie Yushu. Although she is a new daughter-in-law, she takes good care of Xiao Yi and the two children at home. Outside, she also leads everyone through a disaster. If she hadn't led people into the mountains to find water, and fought so many Prey, how many people in the village are still alive is another question!
He really couldn't tell what was wrong with Xie Yushu
However, it really gave him a headache to meet Old Man Xiao and Old Mrs. Xiao who were not satisfied with anything, so he spoke with a certain amount of anger.
"Don't go too far! Didn't I just get you ten taels of silver a few days ago?
I heard that outside, Xiao Yi’s wife gave you a tael to buy rice and grain, and when she came back, she gave you additional fabrics. She also gave you chicks and goslings just now!
The two of them are a good couple! What else do you want!
Don't worry about the donkey and the cart, let alone Miss Qu. Even if there isn't one, you still have to make a living for the second son and his family!
I've said this, but if you don't listen, if Miss Qu goes to the Yamen to sue you, I won't bail you out!
I can't afford to lose that person! "
After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao was dissatisfied and wanted to say something else. Xiao Zhengde suppressed her words and said
"It doesn't matter if you are accused. It will affect the reputation of the fourth child. Don't regret it. The scholar's parents stole things from others and were accused of going to the Yamen. From now on, there is no need to continue reading Xiao Yuanhang's book!"
At this time, candidates for scholar examinations had to be jointly recommended by the village, which proved that the candidates had a clean family tradition and excellent moral character and learning. Otherwise, they would not be qualified to take the examination.
Sure enough, as soon as the village chief said these words, Mrs. Xiao was like a chicken that had its neck strangled, and she immediately fell silent!
Seeing that the donkey cart was hopeless, Xiao Yan and Xie Yujiao began to work hard on eating and dressing.
Xie Yujiao said
"Then the second brother and sister-in-law can't ignore their parents and enjoy spicy food!"
Xiao Yan also said
"Even if my second brother needs to undergo some kind of operation, it's okay to have Xie Yushu to take care of him. Widow Liu should be sent to the old courtyard to take care of my parents!
My second brother and sister-in-law have so much free time on their side, shouldn't someone come up to fulfill their filial piety for them? "
Xiao Zhengde looked at Xiao Yan and said
"Yanzi is also fifteen this year, right?
This big girl has also learned to share some housework for your mother!
Girls younger than you in this village have started helping the family with laundry and cooking! "
Xiao Yan blushed and had a thick neck when she was told that she wanted to refute but didn't dare. She secretly resented Xiao Zhengde for being nosy, thinking that this girl was going to marry into a high family and become a wife, could she be the same as these village girls?
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Xiao Zhengde didn't care what she was thinking, and said to Xie Yushu
"If you have spare time, ask Widow Liu to go to the old yard to help out. As children, you must take care of the elderly's emotions!"
Xie Yushu replied
"The village chief is right. It is natural for children to be filial to their parents. I am not rich enough to hire someone to serve me. It's just that Sister-in-law Liu just came back from abroad with three more children. She said that life was difficult, so she asked Xiao Yi for help. Xiao Yi thought that the neighbors would help if they could, so he hired Sister Liu to do the work.
Since my parents are busy everywhere, I naturally have to send them to my parents’ place!
As for the food, I originally planned to send some to my parents, but when I came back yesterday, it was almost dark, and early this morning, people came to buy chickens again, so I didn’t take the time to come!
I'm going to pretend for my parents right now! "
What Xie Yushu agreed to was called clean and tidy! Turn around and go to the kitchen to load things.
"Wait! I'll go with you!"
Xiao Yan shouted.
Xie Yushu didn't care
"OK!"
Anyway, most of it was put in the cellar by Xiao Yi. There was only five or six days of rice in the kitchen. Even if she packed it all, there wouldn't be much. It would just make Xie Yushu and Xiao Yi's reputation better and ruin her own reputation. !
Sure enough, Xiao Yan went into the kitchen and unceremoniously picked up two kilograms of millet, two kilograms of rice, and two kilograms of noodles, and put them into the basket she was carrying, as well as twenty eggs!
When Xie Yushu saw it, she didn't stop him. She just said symbolically, "Your brother still needs to replenish his health. You can save some for your brother!"
Xiao Yan glared at her and ignored her!
Xie Yujiao saw Xiao Yan pretending to be happy and expected the village chief to be here. Xie Yushu didn't dare to stop her, so she also pushed her over.
"Second sister-in-law, I heard that you bought a lot of fruit! You won't hide it from your parents, right?"
"There, get it yourself!"
Xie Yushu pointed at the half-frame of plums hanging on the beam.
Xie Yujiao's eyes glowed green, she took it off and started eating.
While eating, he walked out with the basket in his arms.
The kitchen was completely empty, except for the cornmeal. Xie Yujiao had enough of this!
After going out, Xiao Yan asked Xie Yushu dissatisfied
"Mom said she wanted to make two sets of clothes for me. I heard you bought a lot of materials last time! Bring them to me!"
"I already gave you a piece last time!"
"One piece is not enough! Go get it again!"
"No more! I have use for the rest of the cloth!"
When Xiao Yan saw that she couldn't get it, she stamped her feet and shouted aggrievedly, "Mom! Look at her!"
Mrs. Xiao scolded dissatisfiedly
"Ms. Xie, why are you, a married daughter-in-law, wearing such fine cloth? Who do you want to seduce? Why don't you give it back to your sister!"
Xie Yushu’s old actions are difficult
"I have finished cutting that material. It must not be suitable for Xiao Yan to wear. However, Xiao Yan wants to see her husband's family. Mother, you have spoken. I am not a good sister-in-law and will not show it at all. I just sold chickens this morning. If you have some copper coins, I’ll give my sister-in-law a hundred, and then let her go to the town and pick one!”
After that, he took a bunch of copper coins and gave them to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan took it proudly and whispered, "You know what I'm doing!"
Then he took his things and left!
Of course, don’t forget to call Widow Liu
Of course Widow Liu doesn't want to go. What she really wants to serve is Xiao Yi. Who wants to serve that old naughty woman and these two little naughty women?
So he said immediately
"I won't go! I work for Brother Xiao's family, what does it mean if I go?"
