Niu comforted herself because Zhang Yaosheng was diligent, studious and motivated, but looking at Mrs. Jiang's husband in the yard over there...
Mr. Niu was bored, listening to the soft footsteps outside, and glanced out from a distance, and saw Song Jingyun passing by his door.
His steps were hurried, as if he was rushing home in a hurry.
They were all from farmers, and their husbands were studying in Wende College. No one was any more noble than the other. Why was she living a tight life at home, with not much food or water, but how could the Jiang family change? Can you buy all kinds of dishes from the restaurant?
Niu rolled his eyes, walked through the narrow and short yard of his house, walked out of the gate, and stopped Song Jingyun.
"Mr. Song." Niu was blessed.
"Are you..." Song Jingyun thought for a while, "Sister-in-law Niu?"
He remembered that Mrs. Niu was Zhang Yaosheng's wife, but she rarely saw her in person, so he didn't have a deep impression. He only remembered that she had a daughter, but the way she looked at her daughter was not loving enough, and she even had a hint of disgust.
Accustomed to the love Jiang Youcheng and Liu had for Jiang Michia and him, Song Jingyun also felt that as parents, they should love and care for their children. Even if they gave strict instructions, their loving eyes could not be hidden.
This is obviously not the case with this Niu family.
Song Jingyun didn't understand why some people didn't love their children, and they didn't even have a good impression of Mrs. Niu. She took a step back calmly, "I wonder why Sister-in-law Niu stopped me?"
"It's nothing important." Niu looked at Song Jingyun.
She had seen Song Jingyun before, but only from a distance without taking a closer look. Now looking at her up close, she found that Song Jingyun was only around 20 years old, with red lips and white teeth, straight eyebrows and eyes, and a face that was much better than that The woman is a bit more handsome, and more importantly, she is tall and neither fat nor thin. Just standing there, she exudes a calm and restrained scholarly atmosphere, which makes people admire her.
Niu was illiterate and couldn't even remember a few sentences of the literate words, but when he saw Song Jingyun, he couldn't wait to rack his brains to think of a few words to praise.
Think about my husband Zhang Yaosheng again. Although he is also a scholar, it has been three years since he passed the scholar examination. Be a butcher.
They are all farmers, how come Song Jingyun can have such a demeanor?
Mr. Niu felt very sour in his heart, and his tone of voice was a bit mean, "But there are some things I want to remind Song Langjun."
"I wonder if Sister-in-law Niu has any advice?" Song Jingyun's tone became more distant.
"It's not about giving advice, but I just want to remind Mr. Song to take good care of your wife."
Hearing Mr. Niu mention Jiang Michia, Song Jingyun was a little nervous, "What's wrong with my wife?"
"What's wrong? As a wife, your wife stays at home all day long. She doesn't make clothes, or needles, or make fires, or cook. She only goes out to buy food and drink in various ways. She doesn't look even remotely virtuous. ?”
Mr. Niu was frothing at the mouth as he spoke, seeming to let out all his resentment, "You are Mrs. Jiang's husband. You must restrain her and teach her what it means to be diligent and thrifty in running a household."
"My husband-in-law is older than you. Even if you call me sister-in-law, don't blame me for saying these words. Even if the family has a strong foundation, they can't bear to spend money like water flowing out. In this life, we still have to have a steady stream of water. For the best, don’t wait until the money is spent before you know what regret is..."
Song Jingyun frowned and listened for a long time, then nodded vigorously, "I understand what Sister-in-law Niu said."
"It's best if Mr. Song understands this." Seeing Song Jingyun's stance, Mr. Niu felt relieved.
"Hey, my wife has really worked hard." Song Jingyun sighed.
Because he is greedy, he has to go to different places every day to buy various dishes. He has to walk so many roads and have to buy them in different ways. It is really difficult for her.
Song Jingyun said, "It's time to hire some servants for my wife."
In the past, my father, mother, and two dogs helped to take care of things at home, and he could share the housework. But now they live alone, and he is busy studying in college, so he has to rely on Jiang Michia for all the big and small things at home. It must be very hard for people to be busy taking care of him.
If I can buy a few that I like, in addition to leaving them at home in the county town, I can also place two at home to make my parents less tired.
Song Jingyun didn't expect this at first, but he happened to be in the academy today, listening to others talking about his mother's housekeeper's troubles and clumsy servants causing trouble, so he thought about it.
Now that Mr. Niu said it again, Song Jingyun became more and more determined about this idea.
It just so happened that he entered the academy and got some money from poetry competitions with others. Plus the money from selling the books he copied while practicing calligraphy, it was quite a lot. He estimated that he could buy three or four servants. , which is almost enough.
Song Jingyun was thinking about this, but Niu was stunned.
This man is all about face. Normally, when others say something bad about his wife, most of them will feel very embarrassed and have their own thoughts.
What happened to Song Jingyun that instead of feeling embarrassed, he actually felt that his wife was working hard?
She goes to restaurants all day long to buy food, so why is Mrs. Jiang so hard?
"Mr. Song, you misunderstood, I mean..." Niu hurriedly argued.
Song Jingyun waved her hands hurriedly, "Thanks to Sister-in-law Niu for reminding me, I know what to do."
"My wife is still waiting for me to have lunch at home. Sister-in-law Niu, if you have nothing else to do, please leave first."
After saying that, Song Jingyun hurried away and entered the courtyard gate of his house.
Mr. Niu stayed there for a long time.
After coming back to his senses, he stamped his feet.
What is this?
Does Song Jingyun not have enough brains or ears to understand what he is saying?
Or……
Men love to save face, so they can't talk about their wives' faults outside. Even if they don't like it, they can only echo a few words and can only go home and teach her a lesson.
Well, it must be, then just wait and wait for Mrs. Jiang to suffer.
Niu felt much better after thinking this, and then turned around and walked back to his home.
The courtyard gates in the county all have thresholds, especially the one in Niu's house. After moving in, a threshold was specially made, and the threshold is higher than that of ordinary homes.
In Zhang Yaosheng's words, he is from a wealthy family. His family is not high enough, so the threshold must be high enough.
Every time Mrs. Niu goes in and out the door and stretches her feet across the threshold, she often thinks about this incident. She always thinks about the scene when her home will become a high-class courtyard in the future.
This thought will inevitably make your mind wander.
Plop!
