Chapter 3 Chinese New Year
"Mother Cai?" the maid outside the door whispered, Mother Cai was afraid of disturbing the eldest wife, so she hurriedly turned over, and saw that the eldest lady was sleeping deeply, so she put her mind at ease, took a blue coat from the chair next to the bed, put it on, and put on her shoes and came out.

"What's the matter?"
Seeing her calm face, the maid hurriedly laughed and said, "That one is still making a fuss, I want to see the old lady!"
"What that one, that's the third wife, there are no rules. Cai's mother reprimanded angrily.
The maid was not annoyed, and said with a smile, "Outsiders don't know, who in our family doesn't know!" "The third master didn't know that he had a wife like her. ”
When the so-called third wife entered the door, the third master, the eldest young master, and the second young master had already gone to Xiyue with the army, and there was no church at all, and the third wife also brought an oil bottle with an unknown father!
Thanks to their mother and daughter, they have the face to put the master's score in the Li family, and their eldest wife is the housewife, so she never puts on the score like them
Mother Cai shook her head secretly, "What do you know? The third lady is the old lady's niece and nephew. As she spoke, she tapped her hand on the maid's forehead, and the old lady saw that the two daughters-in-law were not pleasing to the eye, and she had already thought of raising someone to suppress the two of them, even though the third wife was a concubine's daughter-in-law, but she was the daughter of her mother's brother!
In terms of parenting, how can the eldest wife and the second wife be as good as the third wife's niece?
The girl who was knocked raised her hand and rubbed it, lowered her eyes and was silent, and the other maid glanced at her, and smiled at Cai's mother, "Don't be annoyed with her, she was angry with the third lady just now!"
"What, the third lady is angry with you?"
The third wife, Xiao Jiang, has been living in Lingnan Village since she entered the door, and she can stand it because she is pampered! If it weren't for the words of the eldest wife and the second wife, that woman would have taken her daughter back to the old lady to enjoy the blessings as soon as possible! Now that the woman who might have taken back the title of the main room is dead, she will naturally have to go back to the house to enjoy the blessings.
"The old lady hurts the third lady so much, where can she be willing to be wronged? It's just that the aunt in the third room dies, and the third lady is angry! That's why I don't see her, and I don't call her close. Mother Cai had a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and defended the old lady.
The maidens nodded in understanding.
At the door of the second room of the Li family, the second wife's maid was in a hurry, and the mother-in-law guarding the door hurriedly stepped forward to please, "The girl came back from there?
The maid ignored her, rolled her eyes and walked over her inside, and the mother-in-law saw her go away from behind, so she snorted at her back.
In the inner room of the second room, the second wife is watching the daughters embroidery, the eldest wife has three daughters and one son, and the second wife only has three daughters, no sons, and the confidence is not as good as the eldest sister-in-law, so the temperament is very gentle, and the husband has seven or eight concubines in order to give birth to a son, but unfortunately all of them are the lives of daughters.
Thinking of the eldest grandson who passed away not long ago, the second wife couldn't help but be full of envy and jealousy, why could people easily give birth to four sons in a row, but she was tortured even when she was pregnant, and all the daughters were born! Looking at the pink and childish faces of several daughters, the second wife couldn't help but worry about the future of her daughters.
"Don't think about it, madam. Seeing this, the second wife's nurse hurriedly stepped forward to persuade.
"I know. The second wife laughed and looked down at the embroidery shed in her daughter's hand.
The maid hurriedly entered, and said with a smile on her face, "Second wife, the young master of my uncle's cousin has been admitted to Tongsheng." ”
"Really?" A room full of people was surprised and delighted, the second wife pulled the maid to ask for details, and Ji's nurse was even chanting Buddha with her hands folded.
Several girls even squeezed their eyebrows and smiled at the eldest sister, the second wife laughed for a while, and then let the sisters go back to the room, leaving only the eldest daughter Li Zhaodi, after sending all the people in the house out, the second wife held her daughter in her arms, "It's okay now, your cousin has been admitted to Tongsheng, and when he is admitted to Xiucai, it should be time for you to get married!"
"What did my mother say! This show is not easy to test!" Does her cousin have that ability? Li Zhaodi was quite worried.
"It's better than your father!" Speaking of her husband, the second wife couldn't help but sigh, when the Ji family married her in, it was because she fell in love with the second master Li Jingyue, who knew that there was an embroidered pillow with a belly of straw bags!
But if you get married, what else can you do? It's just making do with your life! It's just that it's hard to settle down!
Li Zhaodi blushed shyly, buried her head in the arms of the second wife, and quietly listened to her mother's nagging.
In the upper room, the old lady got up from the afternoon, after all, she was reluctant to let her niece daughter, and sent her powerful mother to help people in.
When the third lady came into the house, it was the first time she saw her aunt and mother-in-law, and she couldn't help but throw herself into the old lady's arms and cry for a long time.
The mouth was still chattering, "Third lady beware, the old lady has just gotten up, but you can't help scaring her like this." ”
The grandmothers on the side also said, "What is my aunt and nephew!" When the third lady saw our old lady, she naturally wanted to complain about her grievances. ”
"The third wife is a mother, don't scare the child!"
The old lady glanced at them with disgust, "You old goods, the net will send people, knowing that she has been wronged and wants to cry, why don't you hurry up and take the child down, if you are scared, how can you make trouble at night." ”
The grandmothers were busy laughing and blessed, and reached out to lure out the little girl who was following the third wife.
When everyone was gone, the old lady pointed to a chair next to her for the third lady to sit on, "Tell me! What's going on?
"Also, it's not good, she, she's not very good all the time. The third lady muttered, not daring to be honest.
"If you don't say it, I also know, you! It's just that you have a small amount of energy, and you deliberately blind people, now it's okay, kill people! You're happy?" the old lady snorted coldly, scaring the third lady enough.
She didn't expect her aunt to know that the reason why the eldest grandson died was because she wanted to eat fresh fish, forcing the eldest grandson to brave the cold wind to go into the water to fish, and when she came back, she rushed to cook fish for her to eat, so that she would get sick with wind and cold.
"Whoever told her to be slow and slow down, told her to do something and procrastinated. ”
"You're reasonable!" the old lady glared at her with hatred.
The third lady lowered her head and pursed the corners of her lips in disbelief, in her eyes, the eldest grandson and her daughter were her and her daughter's descendants, and it was a matter of course to serve their mother and daughter, and it was the honor of the eldest grandson to die for her!
"I thought you kept your head down, I didn't know you weren't convinced?"
"Auntie!" the third lady raised her head and sat down beside the old lady and said coquettishly, "That eldest grandson is just a cheap concubine, you scold me for her, of course people are not convinced!"
The old lady looked at her charming niece like a flower, and couldn't help but sigh, I really don't know whether it was right or wrong for me to force her to be a concubine in the first place?
Her sister-in-law's original intention was to be a concubine, okay, and then she had to get rid of her daughter-in-law so that she could correct her daughter.
However, it is the niece's temperament that can't bear the responsibilities of the clan wife at all, so she can't be allowed to be a concubine for the eldest son, the second son is suave, and the niece wants to really enter the second room, I'm afraid that she will be harmed by those Yingying Yanyan, and finally decided to marry the third concubine as the two daughters-in-law wanted.
However, now when she sees her niece and thinks of her widows, the old lady's heart throbs.
The distressed niece in the city is so distressed that he can't watch a good show, but no one thinks of Li Qianqian, who was thrown down by the third wife in Nanling Village.
If you want Li Qianqian to say, these relatives in the city are better not to get along, so what kind of grandmother, for the sake of her niece's reputation, forced her mother to be demoted from a wife to a concubine, Li Qianqian didn't have much reaction to the difference between concubines and concubines, because there was no difference between concubines and concubines in the world she came from, so she didn't feel about it.
But for reducing his wife to a concubine, this made her angry.
Although she didn't have any feelings for the original owner's mother, after all, when she came, the original owner's mother was already dead, but when she was still Mo Qingcheng, the little friends who played together since childhood were all born to the eldest wife, and they were born with a deep hatred for creatures like the little three.
Mo Qingcheng's parents died early, and the almighty eldest brother was ten years older than her, and she couldn't play together, so she spent more time in her friends' houses than in her own home, and of course she had heard and seen the methods of those juniors.
So even if she is now Li Qianqian, she still feels the same for a creature like Xiao San, so someone forcibly demoted the original owner's mother from a wife to a concubine for their own selfishness, which really made Li Qianqian indignant.
It's just that her mother is dead, and her father doesn't know where she is, and she is a little baby who is less than ten years old, and it is a problem to live, how can she help her mother restore her status as the main house?
Sitting on the bed with his cheeks in a daze, Li Qianqian, who looked lonely, made the mothers-in-law and mothers in the village feel distressed, and after everyone came up to appease and coax them, the village chief's wife invited everyone out, and sat on the edge of the bed to discuss with Li Qianqian.
"Girl, your village chief uncle said that it is really not safe for your little baby to live here alone, and I want you to move to the village, you see, how about it?"
Li Qianqian looked up at the village chief's wife for a long time before shaking his head and said, "No, my mother said, we have to guard the house, otherwise when my father and brother come back, we will be worried when we see no one at home." ”
The village chief's wife smiled bitterly, but she tried to persuade her again and again, but she couldn't move the five-year-old girl, which made the village chief's wife very frustrated.
"Didn't the village chief's uncle say that when spring begins, he will help me rent out the land?
It'...... "Are you going to hire someone to take care of you?"
"If I were a little older and could do my own laundry and cooking, I wouldn't need it. Li Qianqian lowered his head and said with some frustration.
The village chief's wife patted her head gloomily, "I'll go back and discuss it with your village chief's uncle." ”
Li Qianqian nodded and smiled, and the village chief's wife patted her hand again, and then got up to leave.
The village chief was not surprised by Li Qianqian's decision to be reluctant to leave home, and after listening to his wife's words, he only said, "Then you have to help her choose someone to live well, you have to be honest and reliable, and the family is simple." ”
There are a lot of people in Nanling Village who rely on tenants' fields to make a living, and most of them have a large family population and a small land, so it is really difficult to find a simple family population.
After Li Qianqian threw the problem out, he didn't care, anyway, the sky fell, and there were adults carrying it.
Under the hard feeding of the village chief's wife and other mothers-in-law, she has finally grown a little flesh after being skinny, her little face is a lot plump, and her facial features look more like her mother's eldest grandson, only her heroic eyebrows and eyes are the same as her father's Li Jingshi.
When the old doctor in the village lifted the ban for her and could go out and walk around, it was also time for the New Year.
