Gu Sufen was puzzled that her son's father-in-law's house was in Lvmalan Town.
If you eat there in the morning and take a ride back, you won't get home until it's completely dark in the evening.
The two towns are so far apart. Have you heard of Hao Xianghua over there?
No way.
In fact, I want her to say that she has shit skills.
Hao Xianghua is a widow and doesn't even have a man. Just look at her tough character. Whoever gets involved will be unlucky. Both a dead man and a dead son, all because of the dog's mouth that opened the door curtain.
I used to like to use that mouth to pretend to be poor when I went out. I don’t know how many people secretly pay attention to walking on the front foot, but walking on the back foot. Now it's even worse. He used his dead son to coax Zhao Zhenting, and then he got the mutual trading deal, and then the situation became endless.
Gu Sufen didn't want her son to be cold outside. While urging Xu Youshu to go inside and talk in detail, she also directed her second daughter Wangdi to make egg soup for your brother.
"Mom, the big pot is boiling cakes, and the small pot is boiling water for washing clothes."
Hearing this, Gu Sufen scolded: "You still need to boil water for washing clothes? Whose idea was it between you two? It doesn't cost firewood. You can't even get three points of the land, so it looks like it's a money-losing thing. He looks like a cheap man, but he still learns from that young lady’s behavior.”
Zhaodi remembered that at her second aunt's house, she pulled water from the well and rubbed her clothes to wash them. The second aunt passed by and scolded her when she saw this.
However, the scolding was: "You seem to be a short-sighted kid. You will be frozen for a lifetime. Then isn't the water you just picked up cold?"
Thinking of this, Zhao Di and Wang Di said at the same time: "This is the water I want to boil."
Wang Di hurriedly glared at her younger sister, because she was the one who attracted Youshu, and her mother treated her better than her eldest sister and younger sister, so she wouldn't beat her up if she didn't like it. So regardless of who did the "wrong thing", she is better than others in taking the lead.
Wang Di quickly added in a nice voice: "Mom, aren't you afraid that we will be frozen? It's all burned, and we'll go chop wood soon."
"Hmph, I didn't know about it in advance, my little girl. If I could have known in advance, I wouldn't even want to give birth to you. Why am I afraid you'll freeze?"
Gu Sufen thought this sentence was just the most common sentence she used to scold her children.
She thought about it and then pulled her down after saying this.
But I didn't expect that my little daughter would go crazy today.
Zhaodi suddenly came up strong and was not afraid of scalding her hands. She held the small pot and walked out. A pot of hot water poured directly on the ground: "I'm going to make egg soup for you. Are you satisfied?"
The kitchen room immediately started to get up and down.
Gu Sufen whipped Zhaodi with a round stick, but Zhaodi just stood there in a daze and refused to move away. Wangdi was afraid that her mother would not hit her sister hard enough, so she protected her sister with both arms and received several blows from the fire stick.
Uncle Xu entered the room at this moment and cursed:
"If you are poor all day long, there will be no time to rest. If you are full and exhausted, don't even eat at night."
Xu Youshu had just changed out of his large cotton shoes that were soaked in the snow, pulled out a pair of straw sandals and frowned:
"Mom, what are you doing? Look at Jin Ling's family, no matter what they say, everything is discussed. If you always do things like this, we won't be able to bear it if someone marries you."
Gu Sufen has always believed that her son is God, so she immediately stopped after hearing this.
She could steal food without shame and give it to her son to eat.
She can also run back to her parents' house to do some work. Being able to rub shoulders and wash feet for her fourth sister, who had always bullied her when she was at her parents' house. Her fourth sister fell and broke her head and leg, but she took better care of her than a maid, in order to let her parents put pressure on her, so that she could willingly find a good wife for her son.
Gu Sufen knew in her heart that although she thought her son was good at everything, in the eyes of outsiders, only his face and body could attract people.
Therefore, my family's conditions are a bit poor, so I have to rely on solid introducers. If I want to recruit the parents of a good girl, I must first know them.
Fortunately, she was not busy in vain. The introduced Jin Ling's family owns a very large grocery store in Lvmalan Town and has been in business for decades. Think about that family background.
The other party's four sons are also making a living, and this is the only one who is an old girl.
I heard that she didn't want to marry far away, otherwise her son was capable, but the girl fell in love with her son at first sight and couldn't get him out.
It makes her happy. In the future, if her family has books, it means she will have four uncles to help her, not to mention that Jin Ling's relatives are also very decent. One of the most capable uncles heard that he raised hundreds of mules and cattle in Lvmalan Town.
Fifteen taels of silver per head, how much does it cost if there are hundreds of heads? That's not much richer than the shabby shops in the second house. When there is no mutual market in the future, the shops in the second house will be shabby and cheap. Just take a look, Hao Xianghua doesn’t look blessed.
Gu Sufen was very happy at first, and planned to go to Erdaohe to discuss the engagement with the old lady in detail when her son came back from this trip.
No matter how good the second wife is, she can only find a girl from the country, and she hasn't even found one from the village yet. Looking at her sons, they are much better than those born with the surname Hao. Always press that side.
Unexpectedly, when I heard other people talking in the village, Erdao River was opened for fishing, and Hao Xianghua was so arrogant that he played the drums to get the limelight.
Even when her son came home, he said things that made her worried.
And these two money-losing things, sold to wealthy families even if they were not accepted as maids, dared to give her trouble today if they did something evil.
At this moment, Gu Sufen was angry and jealous, and her face was distorted, but thinking about her son was the most important thing. Even if I was so jealous that I wished my sister-in-law's house would collapse tomorrow, I didn't dare to say any harsh words in front of Uncle Xu.
After all, the last time her man saw the old lady, he came back and said that he would never interact with her again if he had the nerve to do so.
Hearing what his son meant, the Jin Ling family inquired about it, so they had to move around.
Moreover, if the second house is rich, why shouldn’t they move around? She hates her in her heart but smiles on her face. Her man is stupid.
"You were waiting for it, Xiao Zhaodi."
Gu Sufen signaled her son and the man to come into the house quickly, "His father, there is a book saying that Jin Ling's family has even inquired about his younger siblings."
"No matter how awesome she is, it has nothing to do with our family!" Uncle Xu suddenly shouted.
In the past, Uncle Xu was very hostile to his brothers and their wives, but now he has been upgraded to the point where he has become a villain.
Gu Sufen muttered: "If the family doesn't speak the same language, don't worry so much. We are all real relatives. No matter what, I am still the mother of your nephews."
Uncle Xu seemed to be comforted by these words. He sighed deeply and was silent for a while before asking his son: "Should I ask you to help with the work? Let's discuss whether the salary will be smaller or hand it over to you couple later." , why are you still talking about the second room? Why are you asking? "
Xu Youshu said: "I asked during dinner. When I asked how Tian Xin and I were doing, I said I was her cousin. How could that be a good idea?"
Xu Youshu had a look on his face, as if family scandals should never be made public.
And he thinks that's true. After he came back from working, he worked on his own farm, and then went to his grandma's house to work. After he was busy seeing the girl, he never went to Erdaohe.
"Why do you ask your second aunt?"
"Jin Ling's capable uncle said that my second aunt is famous, and he even asked a few questions about the mutual market shop."
Next, Xu Youshu was a little more careful in his reply. He looked at his father's face before continuing:
"I asked that shop if our family could be a part of it. Maybe I thought my mother would be there for her old age, and the Xu family would work together.
If there is someone from our family, it will be understandable if the salary is less, because all the money is spent on it.
He also said that it was a good deal, and everyone was jealous when he mentioned it. Jin Ling's uncle wanted to open one along the road but failed.
I heard that only those who do not do well and are sued by merchants will have the opportunity to change their owners. "
"How did you respond?"
"I said I didn't know."
Uncle Xu took a deep breath: "...How could you not be clear? Why are you telling this lie!"
Gu Sufen quickly winked at her son, interrupted in the middle and said:
"His father can't write a single word. Jin Ling and her uncle are definitely thinking. Even if our two families don't work together in business, they will help the second son's family in the beginning. It's tight."
Does our son know whether he has been helped or not? Neither of us had a detailed chat with him.
And it's useless for you to shout. Our son and the boys from the second son's family are all brothers.
Isn't there such a saying? Brothers fighting tigers, even if they are not involved now, they will be too busy in the future, so why don't they help? It's not even a lie.
Our family has been busy these days, otherwise some book would have gone to Erdaohe long ago. The blood relationship is there, and you can't stop him even if you break his legs. "
Xu Youshu said: "I have indeed thought about it as early as when I was building a house at my second aunt's house. It's not because of anything. Dad, everything is going well with the family. This is what I felt when I went to Jin Ling's house this time. Their family members are united."
"Look."
Gu Sufen thought to herself: What's more, to put it bluntly, if something happens to her sister-in-law one day, how can she do it if there are only a few junior nephews left without a man? None of them have a family. As her uncle, he shouldn't help host the ceremony?
"It's not a big deal. You two, stop making small calculations. I'm telling you, don't sneak around. Why did you scold you for forgetting? You don't have the nerve to get close to me. People help the ones they picked up, but they don't help you. This Even relatives are not as good as others with two surnames."
Uncle Xu said with a sad look on his face: "Fathers and mothers are also snobbish these days. Which mother is having a bad life, and she is always thinking about pulling and pulling. Your grandma is good. Alas, whoever's life is good will run away. Stay home.”
"Dad, don't worry so much about your own mother. Can mother not care about letting the good ones help the poor ones? The palms and backs of her hands are full of flesh. You have to visit her often. As for the younger siblings who have bad tempers and scold them We, brothers and sisters-in-law, can’t take it seriously. If my family quarrels a little, there’s nothing we can’t get over.”
Outside the door, Wang Di watched in disbelief as her little sister eavesdropped.
Too courageous.
Zhaodi listened and shook her head without wiping away her tears. In this family, sons come first, money comes first, and greed comes first.
Her mother-in-law wanted to get an advantage from her second aunt and wanted her second aunt to slap her, but she turned around and had the nerve to slap her. Turning the black into white is extremely hypocritical and shameless.
Zhao Di was even more desperate when she heard her parents talking about her second sister's marriage again.
Wang Di also didn't expect that her father, who was clearly "favored" at home, would go to see a lame man for her today because of her younger brother's betrothal gift.
Worse than the elder sister.
The eldest sister is just older and lives in a remote place. When she comes in, she has to help the eldest brother-in-law raise his two younger brothers. My parents say to others that when you enter the house, you become the master of the house.
Fortunately, the next words comforted Wangdi, and Uncle Xu's voice came out one after another from the room: "Except for a little problem with my legs, everything else is fine. She has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is as honest as my uncle. What he said there I was just worried. There was an old man at home who was dying, so I said it would be a blessing. They are all filial people, and I felt quite uncomfortable when I heard that, so I agreed."
Gu Sufen said: "You are the pillar, you can make the decision. As for our son..."
"See, we can't miss out on the betrothal gift. Let's wait until the second girl leaves home after the new year and then make a date."
Uncle Xu looked at Xu Youshu and said, "If you have nothing to do, go check your breasts and let her know."
There is a saying that the child is right, at least let outsiders see that the relationship between the two families is okay.
"Dad, aren't you going? When my second sister goes out, my second aunt and the others will come. I'm the only one who will come when they get married. Don't do that."
"Huh, let's talk about it then. Youyin and the others didn't even say they came to see me, my uncle. How about my elders going to see them? I won't go."
On the second day, the Xu family in Erdaohe was experiencing several happy events.
First, the whole table hugged Old Mrs. Xu and cried excitedly: "Sister, you have troubled yourself so that someone can take over the few acres of land in my broken house. It's okay this time, I'll move here, and our two families will make something delicious in the future." Yes, you can carry it back and forth like your sisters. I will live next to you."
"I'm doing it for myself, so that I won't have to talk to you on crutches when I get old, and it will take a lot of effort to say a bad word to anyone."
"Yes, when we are old, we can still use crutches to climb trees and be naughty together. What if we don't have a man? What if our sons and grandchildren are all married? Let's go together."
The whole table was filled with tears and I was thinking with a smile: And sister, I will try to walk behind you, and I will serve you for the rest of my life, so that you will not be left alone and unhappy.
If Mrs. Xu knew what the table was thinking, she would definitely curse. Can you wish me well?
The table was full of young son Huzi, who was dragging his silly older brother behind to secretly wipe his tears.
Afraid of disturbing the two old sisters, he quickly pulled his brother away.
Huzi rubbed his eyes hard with his sleeves, then looked into the distance and recalled the words on the table that told him.
Mom said, if one day someone says to you: The Xu family earns so much, but you have worked so hard but earned so little, would you be willing to do so?
When you hear this, if you still recognize me as your mother, please change your hands immediately and give me a big mouth.
Aunt Xu, in the past, there was a dung truck in front of the door. I wanted to take a spoon to take a taste of the salty food. People who take advantage of it are also people who dare not spend a penny by mistake.
So your aunt is not unable to do it, but she gives our family opportunities to make money again and again. When you feel frustrated, please think about how your family has been doing well since then. Even if I have nothing to do, I will recall the scenes where the Xu family helped our family. They were all life-saving straws. In this life, if you dare to lose your conscience, I will not recognize you here.
Mrs. Xu still doesn't know this. If she knew, she would complain and say: It's not that bad. I'm not that rich yet. I just had enough to eat. There's no need to get vaccinated so early.
When the table full of people returned to the original village to complete the land sale procedures, the three grandchildren kneeling in front of Mrs. Xu started crying again.
Mrs. Xu plans to let the second eldest brother among the three brothers, Dapeng, Dafei and Daniao, start learning cooking from her. According to her observation, the second grandson has some talent.
The three boys knelt on the ground: "We swear by our late parents and eldest brother that if one day we dare to leave you or reveal our craftsmanship, we will..."
Mrs. Xu waved her hand to stop her. It was necessary to kneel to her.
Because from now on, these are her three grandchildren.
Three sons, three grandsons, and one big precious granddaughter. Qin Niang is pregnant again. Oh, look at the family. Since time travel, the population has grown faster than the wealth. And the growth is very solid.
But he swore not to leave her, and there was no need to reveal his craftsmanship.
Mrs. Xu sat above and said with a smile:
"Grandchildren, listen carefully, grandma is not afraid of leaking it if she dares to tell it.
But one thing is, you guys, don’t leak anything about this piece of land, it’s useless.
Kyushu is so big, and you have to go to bigger cities outside when flying solo, which is also the meaning of the name given by your parents.
In this case, I can't prepare for the fact that ten or twenty years later, I will still receive many property deeds from other places. "
What's going on? These words made the three of them confused.
"Because my three grandchildren turned into butterflies, flew over the mountains, flew across the sea, turned into strong young men, flew to bigger places, and bought it for me with the money they earned. During the Chinese New Year, they will definitely When you’re on your way at starry night, when you get home, you excitedly hand it over to me!”
Mrs. Xu discussed with her granddaughter that this is the meaning of adoption, rather than keeping a useful person around as a long-term worker.
After hearing this, the three new grandchildren kowtowed and said loudly: "Yes, grandma, the grandchildren know."
Xu Jiasanyou said: "..." It sounded like the truth.
It's true that if one dares to draw a big pie, the other dares to make a big pie. (End of chapter)
