"Sister, how many children have you given birth to, and who are they in your family? If I go, what would be a better gift?"
"No need to give gifts, just come. Those of us who are not married don't need to give gifts when they come to visit. There is no such rule."
"That's not okay. You have your own rules, and I have mine. Since you don't want to say it, then I'll figure it out myself!"
When Li Yuan heard what she said, she understood that she was most likely certain in her heart that her aunt was the Han family, and she also intended to go to their house. She felt inexplicably relieved.
It wasn't that she wanted to get married to this wealthy relative in a high-ranking mansion, but she thought that if her mother was still alive and had memories, she probably didn't want her younger sister and heirs to dislike her as a poor relative and stay away from her.
When Li Yuan returned to Juren Alley, before she got home, she saw her grandma standing outside the door and yelling curses.
"My granddaughter is very good, do you need to take care of her? Everyone just eats carrots and doesn't worry about her, bah!"
The two old women couldn't help but feel embarrassed after being scolded by Mrs. Wang. After a while, one of them said: "Since ancient times, men have been superior to women. Men can have three wives and four concubines, but women cannot. I kindly tell you that your granddaughter's ideas are unacceptable. , just let it go if you don’t appreciate it, and you still say that I am nosy? Okay, it’s me who is nosy, and I won’t say it again in the future. I want to see how good your granddaughter can live like this in the future. Xie Xiucai It’s so pitiful, why did you marry such a shrew?”
Mrs. Wang heard what Li Yuan said yesterday, so she rudely responded to the self-righteous person.
At this time, when she heard the words about your granddaughter's bad ideas, she smiled and said: "It's better to be a shrew than to be bullied to death and not dare to say a word. Besides, what is she wrong about? Should men look down on women?" ? Men don’t want women to give birth to children? So at home, you are looked down upon by your own man, as well as your sons and grandsons? In this case, your family will be full of unfilial sons? "
When Li Yuan heard this, she already knew what was going on. Seeing that there were still people poking around, she suddenly felt funny when she heard the old woman's words and nodded repeatedly.
So as women themselves, they look down on women, so what's the use of what others say?
It's okay for them to live a good life, but if they don't live a good life, it's entirely their own fault!
"Milk!"
Mrs. Wang, who had not finished talking yet, turned to look at Li Yuan when she heard her voice.
"Yuanniang is back?"
"Well, grandma, it's getting late now. Let's finish our meal early and go outside the city to watch Gao Ningyao be beheaded."
The old woman who was originally very angry with Mrs. Wang felt inexplicably frightened when she saw Li Yuan say such words with a blank expression.
That's a beheading. What's so good about it? She actually wants to see it in person. Isn't she afraid of nightmares?
Although Gao Ningyao deserved his crime and was Li Yuan's father-killing enemy, it would be fine if there were men in the family to watch this kind of thing. What use was there for women like them?
Forget it, this woman in front of me is fierce and cruel, it is better for them to have less contact in the future, so as not to lead their daughter-in-law and granddaughter into bad ways!
After all, Mrs. Wang still had some scruples. After finishing her meal early at noon, she said to Li Yuan: "Mother Yuan, beheading is not a good-looking thing after all. You can just go and see it in person. Don't go, you don't have to come back to do it." Nightmare."
As a modern person, Li Yuan lives in peaceful times and has only seen it on TV.
But that scene was also edited and used props.
If she really wanted to watch someone beheaded, deep down in her heart she couldn't accept it.
Li Yuan didn't say anything yet, but Xie Yanzhi on the side said directly: "Mother Yuan, you and Nai don't go, as long as I keep an eye on you personally."
Mrs. Wang hated Gao Ningyao so much. She thought that she had lived a long time and had nothing to avoid, so she said: "I have to go, I want to see the thief's head fall to the ground with my own eyes. Yuan Niang, don't go, wait a moment At two quarters after noon, you ask Brother Li to set off firecrackers, and it’s settled!”
Mrs. Wang was still a little worried when she said this. She came to the concierge in person and said to Old Man Li: "Brother Li, as soon as two quarters to noon comes, you will set off firecrackers outside and set off all the firecrackers I bought this morning. In the evening You bring Artai to the main courtyard for dinner, and let’s celebrate together!”
Old Man Li also knew why Mrs. Wang acted like this. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the host family was happy, so he nodded: "Okay!"
At noon that day, Li Yuan did not go outside the city. She waited for the firecrackers to be set off at home before going to her new house with Yan Jiao.
But neither of them expected that when they first arrived, they would see Su Jin standing at the door.
"Sister-in-law, Sister Jiaojiao!"
When Su Jin looked at Yan Jiao, there was pity, worry and envy in her eyes.
But after seeing her and Li Yuan standing together, that worry disappeared.
It seems that Ping An is right. Madam Li is a very nice sister-in-law and will not leave Sister Jiaojiao alone.
When Yan Jiao was sad, Su Jin followed her all the time, and she was grateful to her in her heart.
Seeing her standing at the door, he took out the key and opened the door. While welcoming the person in, he asked: "Su Jin, why are you here? I heard that Chen Miaomiao and his brother will go to the capital in the next two days. Before You will come here because of me and Chen Wu, but I have nothing to do with him. What about you, what are your plans next? Will you go back to Liuyun County, or stay here? Or, follow to the capital?"
Su Jin took out a purse from her sleeve pocket and handed it to Yan Jiao: "Sister Jiaojiao, Brother Wu gave this to you. He said that he knew he was wrong and the compensation he gave you would never appear in front of you again. Also. Yes, the eldest lady of the Chen family said. Ping An and I can go to the capital, or we can stay here. After discussing it with Ping An, we felt that we didn’t know what to do in the capital, so we just wanted to stay here. The eldest lady of the Chen family He said, then we will stay here to help her look after the house. Well, we need to sign a long-term employment contract, and each month we will give me and Ping An 300 yuan of monthly silver. In addition, no matter what we do, we can't hit her or the Chen family. in the name of.”
Li Yuan saw that Yan Jiao didn't want to take the money, so she reached out to take it, stuffed it into her hand, and said to Su Jin: "This is good. You are familiar with Fucheng, and anything you do is better than in the capital! There is free money. You don’t need to rent a big house to live in. Except for the main house and the like, which cannot be used, I think the place you live in, no matter how bad it is, is better than renting it for 100 or 200 yuan outside. What’s more, they still give you 300 yuan for free. arts."
Yan Jiao came to her senses and said, "Chen Miaomiao is very generous. I think he is subsidizing you. With these monthly silver, you can do whatever you want, and your life will not be too bad!"
Su Jin also knew that it was thanks to Chen Wu that Chen Miaomiao treated them so kindly.
Of course, it may also be Yan Jiao's blessing. After all, Chen Miaomiao asked them to keep an eye on Yan Jiao in secret, so as not to let her be bullied as an orphan!
