Chapter 11: Right and Wrong
"What, is this deliberately making trouble for me?" Old Lady Zhu glared at them angrily and scolded, not feeling weak at all, "I don't have the power to force people to death!" said that she was also angry, and glared at Li Shi hatefully.
Jiang Shi saw this situation, and turned around and continued to breathe into her chest, "Mother, mother, don't be angry, be careful." Looking at Hongzhu Wenhan again, he said half-complaining, half-blaming: "What's wrong with you two, you want to die or live like this, don't you have to make that scheming against your grandmother?"
Hongzhu listened to Jiang's overt persuasion and secretly bad words, and said seriously: "It's not our turn to be scheming in this house! My brother speaks straight and sincerely, and he will do what he says, so don't you still want to try it?"
Cheng Wenhan didn't speak, only stared at Mrs. Zhu stubbornly.
Li Shi only felt full of pain, and tears rolled down his eyes.
Mrs. Zhu was angry in her heart, and when she looked at the Li family, she was about to scold, but after taking a closer look, she was frightened by the appearance of their mother and son, and secretly hated that this family was all hard bones. After all, she was a little timid in her heart, so she didn't mention Fang Cai's words of remarriage.
She rolled her eyes and coldly met the red bead gaze, and said: "Your second uncle is not your second uncle, is it your own uncle, but just shouting that the second uncle will stick it like this, who knows what others think." Now you are still blaming me for stopping you from getting rich? Go and do your dream of making a fortune, make a profit, and if you are sold and eaten by others, don't come back, go and go!"
Hongzhu hugged Li and hurriedly replied: "Grandma, what you said is not right, although the second uncle is not close, but our two families have been friends for so many years, and my father's funeral is still busy with his help, which is something that no matter how close people can't do!
Hongzhu said this seriously, they are very affectionate among their neighbors, if it is a red and white wedding as a relative, it is a great kindness, and when the matter is done, even if it is not a relative, it will be a relative.
Cheng Wenhan said: "Grandma, if you don't recognize it, you will be poked in the back." ”
He said it seriously, such a child taught people with a straight face, and Mrs. Zhu choked when she heard it.
Jiang Shi came out and said: "Your grandmother didn't mean that, she was worried that you didn't have any knowledge, and she was coaxed away by someone for a while." ”
Hongzhu said: "Auntie, you don't have to worry about this, the second uncle won't lie to us." She said categorically, "It's not that the matter of this shop is hidden from you, it's just that Second Uncle Li wanted to open a shop before, which is his own business, and it has nothing to do with us at all." Later, it was Uncle Li who saw that our mother and son were pitiful, so he asked us to take a little share, so that the two families would not have a share, work together, and add some income to us. ”
"Poor, how miserable are you guys, and it's their turn to be pitiful?" Old Lady Zhu suddenly became angry again.
Hongzhu said: "Oh, grandma, in the end, he is kind, my mother's words were not bad before, our family should live seriously after the funeral." ”
Jiang Shi frowned, and said with a worried face: "An Niang, Hongzhu, this business is not so simple, how much silver does your second uncle ask you for, and how many components is it? ”
"It's not much, it's just that if you look at the relationship between the two families, it's a loss......" Li Shi only came back to his anger at this time, and whispered with a white face, "Our mother and son work harder, and we can bear it." ”
When Jiang Shi heard this, his face slowed down with a "hmm", and before he could speak, Mrs. Zhu said, "Take the silver back, don't join in this fun." ”
Li Shi was anxious when he heard this, and he couldn't breathe, and Hongzhu immediately said: "I told my grandmother the truth, that is, by virtue of the affection between our two families, don't say that the second uncle is not short of this bit of silver, that is, the second uncle came to us when the real money and silver are not enough, and we have to give him this silver to save money, and there is no need to say a word to borrow the money! ”
Cheng Wenhan said with a straight face: "I can't open this mouth either, Mr. said, 'People can't stand without trust', and if you promise it, you have to do it." ”
When Mrs. Zhu heard this, she felt even more unreasonable, and she looked like she was willing to be cheated of money by the Li family, so she said: "What kind of reason do you have, that the money was given to the Li family for nothing?"
Hongzhu hurriedly eased her tone and said: "Grandma, this is the shop of the second uncle's family, and their big money and silver are out, do they still deliberately come to seek our little money? Now that we have that little bit of shares, we will have income in the future, and we are still embarrassed. ”
Mrs. Zhu was so angry that she suddenly heard that Hongzhu was embarrassed to even pay for it, so she was even more annoyed, and immediately scolded again: "What kind of drug have you taken, no matter how many taels of silver, it is a fact that you have made a share, if you make money in the future, you should have your share, can this be relied on?
When the Jiang family heard this, they knew that the Cheng family and the Li family had joined forces to open a shop, and Mrs. Zhu was finally willing. She immediately frowned, thinking about it.
Hongzhu was relieved to see that this old lady Zhu had finally fooled her and accepted the matter of joining forces. Seeing Jiang's face in a blink of an eye, his heart suddenly changed, and he was worried that this would really make money, and what twists and turns would happen. Hongzhu's eyes rolled, and she deliberately followed Mrs. Zhu's words: "That's also my mother's dowry, let my mother do it." ”
Old Madam Zhu raised her eyebrows.
Cheng Wenhan smiled and said, "It's for the second uncle, and I don't have a word." Grandma, I'll make money when I grow up. ”
Mrs. Zhu is arrogant and arrogant, and she is still a little tough after so many years of being the master of the house, Hongzhu insisted that it was the dowry money from the Li family, and the benefits were also from the Li family, although the old lady Zhu didn't believe it, but she didn't have anything to say. The daughter-in-law's dowry money, even if Mrs. Zhu is the Li family's mother-in-law, will not ask for it, and now that the two surnames have no reason to interfere.
Sure enough, as soon as she heard that it was the Li family's dowry money, Mrs. Zhu suddenly lost a little heart, thought about it and ignored the two little ones, only turned her head and glared at the Li family viciously and said: "If you are really not a virtuous housekeeper, you have gold and silver in your hand, so you can go to accompany your mother's family with a few taels of silver?" I will just say a word, whether it is your dowry or not, if you want to be the wife of the Cheng family, you will think about your son and daughter, and think about having a peaceful birthday. If I knew that you didn't want this from you, I didn't have to leave, and I would beat you out with a crutch!"
Li held back tears and nodded, and did not mention the dowry or not.
Jiang Shi helped her with a stiff smile on his face, and only said: "An Niang, I didn't expect that you also have this heart now, and you are still taking the dowry to give birth to silver." ”
Li didn't know how to answer when he heard this, Cheng Wenhan came up and shook her hand, and said to Jiang with a smile: "Auntie, then accept your noble words and give you a lot of silver!"
Jiang Shi was stunned for a moment, then touched his head with a smile, "Really sensible." ”
"Alright, let's all go down. Mrs. Zhu was also tired and impatiently sent them out, so Li took her children and retreated.
Jiang Shi watched them go out coldly, and then turned his head and said to Mrs. Zhu with an uneasy expression, "Mother, this matter is so decided......?" In a hurry?"
Mrs. Zhu snorted angrily: "What if I say no, which of them can listen to me." She drank a bowl of tea from the boss, and she was a little tired after a while. Thinking of the conversation between Fang Cai and the three of the Li family, he paused for a while and said slowly: "Except for the funeral, this portal still needs to be supported by Wen Han in the end, can we still support their surname Cheng for the rest of their lives?" Hongzhu has not been at home for a few years, I see that the little girl is still a little sure, let them open this shop." ”
Jiang didn't want to hear these words from Mrs. Zhu's mouth, and was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he complained in passing: "Who said it wasn't, after all, it has become two families now." After this funeral, there are many things to do in the Cheng family...... Hongzhu wants to get married, and Wenhan wants to take scientific examinations, one by one. When she saw Mrs. Zhu nodding, she said softly, "Mother, do you have to let them move out?"
When Mrs. Zhu heard this, she suddenly glanced at her, and said angrily: "What do you think, Wen Han is only a few years old!"
Jiang's face showed a little grievance, "Mother, I think it's wrong." He explained: "I thought An Niang would find it inconvenient, so I said this." In fact, the two families live together, and it is just right to help them. ”
Mrs. Zhu snorted.
Jiang Shi thought about it, and then he was worried again, "It's this time, Anniang and they haven't done business in the end, and you will have to check it for them in the future." This is a food shop again, and the money and food come and go every day, which is mixed and messy, and there are many doorways in it. That Li Er has only been going back and forth for a few years, and he knows people and faces, but he doesn't know his heart, and their mother and son are not even a family now, and they are in debt when they turn around, and they still involve us!"
Mrs. Zhu also understood what she meant, and she was worried about this before. As soon as she thought about it, she also nodded, her face was ugly, and she only said stiffly: "They dare!"
Jiang sighed, and then complained: "It's also that they don't stop, my mother is going to enjoy happiness, and she can't stop worrying." Seeing Mrs. Zhu's face showing approval, she said again: "But don't worry, my daughter-in-law, although I don't know anything, I am younger than my mother, I will pay attention." ”
Mrs. Zhu patted her hand, "You are an understanding person, and then you have to take care of anything." ”
Jiang smiled slightly, and persuaded again: "Don't think about it, mother." The shop has been busy these days, and I have to prepare for Bo Xiu to come back, and my daughter-in-law has less to serve, so my mother has to take care of her body. ”
Speaking of Zhu Boxiu, the eldest grandson who was studying at Xishan Academy outside the city, Mrs. Zhu's face was filled with joy, and she talked about her grandson, and complained about why she came back so late this year.
Jiang Shi picked a few nice words, and immediately coaxed Mrs. Zhu to be happy.
Out of the old lady's room, Jiang smiled and went to his daughter's room with a cold face.
