Mr. Xiao nodded, and Xiao Zhengning felt slightly relieved, "Dad, Sanya has been a child with good ideas since she was a child. As long as we treat her well, she will definitely treat us well. Please advise mother, don't give the child trouble at every turn. Look, when the child is older, he also needs face."
As a son, he can bear being slandered by his own mother; a generation later, he is still scorned for unreasonable reasons, who can bear it!
"I know, you and your wife don't have to worry about this. Your mother won't make a fuss; Sanya has already hung the plaque next door. If she makes a fuss again, she's really confused." If that's the case, It's time for the old wife to enjoy her old age in peace, and she can no longer interfere with matters that she shouldn't have to deal with.
Xiao Zhengning got the right message and felt happy; after he separated from the old man, a smile appeared on his face.
When Mr. Xiao returned to the house, Mrs. Xiao asked, "What does the boss want from you?"
"He!" Mr. Xiao found a set of clothes and came out, changing his dirty clothes while talking, "Sanya got a title, and her senior brother gave her a mansion; Sanya had someone clean it up, and her master gave it to her The two servants have gone over, and the plaque of the County Lord's Mansion has been hung up."
"Did you hang it up? Where did you hang it?"
Mr. Xiao said angrily: "Of course she went to the yard next door. The next door was given to her by Sanya's senior brother. In the future, the next door will be the County Lord's Mansion, which has nothing to do with us. Don't think too much about it. .”
"We're not dead yet, and she's not married yet, so why did she hang the plaque somewhere else?"
"That's Sanya's yard, and the title belongs to Sanya. She can hang it wherever she likes. Damn it, how many times do you want me to tell you, don't meddle in the children's affairs. If you're not deaf or dumb, you won't be a family man. Don’t you understand? Children are older, they have good ideas, and they all have their own ideas. The more we take care of them, the more likely they are to get into trouble. They know this. They originally planned to help the family, but if you go to make trouble, you will be angry. If I don’t comply, I won’t help. What can you do?”
Why don't I have any idea in my heart? They are old, and what they say makes sense, and the younger generation will listen; if it doesn't make sense, the younger generation will just show off, so why bother to talk about it.
Mrs. Xiao's eyes twitched hard a few times and she became angry, "Sanya is paying less and less attention to us. She quietly took care of the matter of hanging the plaque."
"Okay, why is Sanya doing this? Isn't it because you always cause trouble for her." Mr. Xiao can see it, but the old lady can't!
She has been thinking about how many properties Sanya has under her name. She only knows about two houses, right? She didn't know if there were any that she really didn't know, but she felt that there must be.
"Things without conscience..." The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. The old lady slapped the table and wanted to find someone.
The old man sternly interrupted her unspoken words, "Shut up, what's going on in your head? I've told you so much, but you haven't remembered it at all? Sanya is a grown-up girl, what's wrong with having property? It was a gift from my master and senior brother, and it didn’t cost our family any money. Why do you have the face to ask her for it? Even if she has money in her hand, it was earned by her, and it was earned by a child under eight years old. I can’t go through the trouble of finding a child who hasn’t grown up yet.”
"Do you want a second wife?"
The last sentence completely stopped the old lady.
Mrs. Xiao took a few deep breaths and managed to swallow her dissatisfaction. "Then what do you think we should do? Her wings are hard now. In a few years, her wings will be hard. Then she can still listen." Ours?"
"It's not you who has the final say whether you can listen to her, it's her who has the final say; treat her well and don't cause trouble for others, don't cause trouble for others, remember?" Isn't it good to be a kind old man? You have food, drink, and clothing, and you don't have to do anything every day. Isn't it nice to be well taken care of by the servants?
Wouldn’t it be nice to be an old man or an old lady?
Why do you have to do things according to her wishes?
Mr. Xiao was suffocating in his heart. After all, seeing as his old wife had been with him for decades, he couldn't bear to get angry too hard. According to his true thoughts, he should be sent to the countryside to stay with his second son's family. Take more pain. But he was afraid, so he really sent the person back; the second daughter-in-law was not allowed to gossip about the old wife who asked the boss for money from time to time!
In the name of filial piety, should the boss give it or not?
If you don't give it, it will be a bad reputation for the three grandchildren; if you give it, it will raise the heart of the second son's family, which is really difficult for him.
Old Mrs. Xiao was upset and felt that the old man did not help her and favored the eldest family in every aspect; however, she had been such a person before! Even more partial than the old man. However, because of this, she now feels a little more guilty towards her second wife.
This guilt was born from the attentiveness of my younger son during that time in the countryside.
"I know, even if you don't tell me, I know it; you just don't want to cause trouble for Sanya! Isn't it okay for me to be a mute? I will never say a word in front of her." This should be enough, wait until Sanya feels it in her heart After her anger subsided, she spoke again.
Mr. Xiao didn't know what the old lady was thinking at all, but he was satisfied after hearing her words.
"Remember, don't cause trouble for Sanya, and the same goes for the people in the eldest house; don't think about trying to manipulate the eldest daughter-in-law. Our whole family has seen what the eldest daughter-in-law has done over the years. If we really want to make a fuss, what do you think about Sanya? Are the three of them facing the eldest daughter-in-law or you?"
Of course it's towards their mother.
Mrs. Xiao didn't want to know everything, but because she knew, she didn't feel confident; if she didn't feel confident, she would just make a fuss, which was harmless.
The fact that Minghua had an extra yard was a clear path, and a war that had never seen smoke was eliminated invisibly.
After a long time, Xiao Zhengning and Xiao Leshi didn't hear the old lady making trouble, and they were still cheerful while eating, so they knew that the old man had understood the old lady.
Minghua felt a little more comfortable when she saw it. She put down her chopsticks after dinner and spoke slowly.
"Grandma, father and mother, tomorrow my master may send two nuns over. The nuns are from the palace. They are of high rank and are female officials in the palace. When they arrive at our house, they will have to arrange accommodation for them. , so I will first arrange for the three gentlemen to move to the house next door to free up the yard for the correctional nun."
The three gentlemen's yard is not big, so they have one yard for the correctional nuns to live in, and two more yards can be left free.
"When will it be delivered? What is the rank of the nun in the palace? Do we have to salute when we see people?" Xiao Zhengning asked several questions in a row.
Minghua said: "It depends on your rank. According to the rules, my rank is higher than theirs, so I don't need to show you any courtesy. You are my elders, so naturally you don't need to show me any gifts. It's just that my brothers have to pay half a courtesy."
A half-courteous gesture is considered respect.
