After Lan Niang sold a few rice cakes and was idle, she lifted the padded jacket draped on the blind woman's body.

"Mother, it's getting colder and colder the day after tomorrow, it's okay for you to be at home, I'll come out alone. As she spoke, Lan Niang coughed a few more times, her face very haggard.

She only cared about her blind mother-in-law, and she was sick but still wearing thin clothes.

"When it's cold, you're going to get sick, and you're going to delay your work again. ”

"I'm fine. ”

"Today, you will work harder, make two more pots of rice cakes, so that you can sell some more silver, and make up enough to give Hou'er." ”

Lan Niang sighed, "It's not that I'm afraid of hard work, but I can't sell it if I do too much." ”

"You still want to be lazy!"

Liu Yunxiang could have bought some rice cakes, but the guys in Jingchuan Yuan and Nanmo Zhai had eaten enough, and said that they didn't want to eat rice cakes anymore. And Lan Niang, although she is poor, has a lot of backbone and does not accept alms.

At this time, a little girl came to Lan Niang's rice cake stall, wearing a crimson cotton skirt, washed a little white, but clean and neat, combed with a double bun, looking white and cute, with a pair of big eyes, staring at the rice cakes in the basket.

This little girl is Yue'er.

Remember the URL

When Lan Niang saw Yue'er, she seemed to know her, picked up a piece of rice cake from the basket, half-got up and stuffed it into Yue'er's hand.

"Eat. ”

Yue'er held it with both hands and ate it, eating so much that her nose was full of scum, Lan Niang got up again and wiped her with a handkerchief.

"Every time I see you alone, what about your family?"

Yue'er whined and said one word: "Home." ”

"Who are you in your family?"

"Home...... A lot...... A lot of people. ”

Lan Niang rubbed the little girl's head, "Eat slowly." ”

The blind woman listened attentively, and asked unhappily: "If she has any money, you will give it to her?"

"Mother, it's just a child. ”

"The child doesn't want money? Why are you so loose in your hands? If you do this, all your family wealth will be leaked!"

"Mother!"

"Don't let her go, wait for her family to get the money!"

The blind mother-in-law was afraid that Lan Niang would let her go, so she hurriedly got up, shook her hand a few times, grabbed Yue'er, and pulled her to her, "If you want to eat for nothing, no way!"

"Mother, this child is stupid, you will scare her!" Lan Niang hurriedly stopped.

"A fool can't afford not to give money!"

Yue'er saw that the blind woman was so fierce, she was already frightened, and her body trembled.

Seeing this, Liu Yunxiang hurriedly walked up and shouted: "Let go!"

The blind woman pulled Yue'er and pushed forward, "This is your child?"

"Yes. ”

The blind woman snorted, and then let go, "This kid has eaten my rice cake, hurry up and give money." ”

Yue'er hugged Liu Yunxiang and drilled her head straight into her arms.

Liu Yunxiang patted her on the back, "Yue'er is not afraid, my sister is here." ”

She comforted Yue'er for a while, and the little girl was not afraid, but she still hid behind her, not daring to look at the blind mother-in-law.

Lan Niang looked apologetic, "The owner, I didn't expect this child to belong to yours, I'm sorry, I'll compensate you for my mother." ”

"What's wrong with me, you're born soft with bones?" cried the blind woman.

"Mother, don't say it, this owner is a good person, he helped me!"

"Where's the owner?"

"Study's. ”

The blind woman thought for a moment, and then changed her smile to a smile, "I know it, blame me, blame me!"

Liu Yunxiang shook his head at Lan Niang, signaling that she didn't have to care. I saw Yue'er eat a piece again, obviously not full, and stared at the rice cake in the basket and swallowed saliva.

"Lan Niang, I want these rice cakes, you can wrap them. ”

"Ah, but there are so many, if you can't finish eating, you have to get hard, so let's ask for less. Lan Niang reminded.

"You are a dead brain, you can take as much as people want, why do you talk so much!" shouted the blind woman.

Lan Niang still looked at Liu Yunxiang, "If the owner is here to help me, I thank you, but I can't waste it." ”

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "It won't be wasted, I have a lot of family." ”

Lan Niang was relieved, "That's good." ”

She wrapped the rice cakes in the basket with oiled paper one by one, tied them up with hemp rope, and brought them to Liu Yunxiang. After Liu Yunxiang caught it, he gave her a broken piece of silver.

"Is it enough?"

"Enough, enough, more, I'll look for you. ”

"No need, you can take it to see yourself, you can't cough all the time. ”

Lan Niang was about to refuse, but the blind woman intercepted her words and faced Liu Yunxiang's direction, "This lady, listening to your words, it seems that she knows my Lan Niang, in this case, you have to help her." ”

Liu Yunxiang didn't like this blind woman, so her voice was a little cold, "How did you say this?"

"Her husband is going to participate in the Autumn Festival, but there is still a ten-tael registration fee, can the owner lend it to her? ”

"Mother!" Lan Niang was embarrassed.

The blind woman pushed her, "Please, this lady, Hou'er's future depends on you." ”

"Mother, I can't, I ......"

"For the sake of your husband, if you can't do anything, even if you want your life, you should be willing!"

When Liu Yunxiang heard this, she really couldn't listen to it anymore, she looked at the blind mother-in-law and said: "Did she owe your family or anything in her last life, why should she be willing to serve your mother and son? She said that she was a daughter-in-law and a lady, but in your eyes, do you really regard her as a family? Even, do you treat her as a person? In your eyes, she is clearly a tool to make money, and if she can earn money, she is useful, but once she can't earn money, she can't satisfy you, and she will become a useless waste!" Your family is surrounded by walls, a man, to rely on his mother, not only does he not know shame, but he also commands all day long, really taking himself as an official master? And you, a blind mother-in-law, know that she is useless, and rely on her daughter-in-law to raise her, not to mention gratitude to Dade, at least you should say something nice, right? You two are like this, if I were Lan Niang, I would have left you alone, and without two burdens, life would only be better!"

When the woman who was setting up a stall selling vegetables next to her heard this, she couldn't get used to the blind mother-in-law's attitude towards Lan Niang, and couldn't help shouting: "Well said!"

The blind woman's face turned into the color of pig liver, "You, you...... It's my family's business, what are you, you ......"

"Let's take a look at what you two yourself are, just your son's virtue, and he still wants to go to high school, it's a dream! And I will give you another sentence, there is no registration fee for the imperial examination, he wants these ten taels of silver, maybe what to do!"

After Liu Yunxiang finished speaking, Chong Lanniang nodded, and then pulled Yue'er away.

The blind woman's face was red, blue, white, so angry that she couldn't do it anymore, and pushed Lan Niang hard.

"If you have a grudge in your heart, just say it, and you want to borrow someone else's mouth, I didn't know that you were so scheming!

"Mother!" Lan Niang's eyes widened, almost unable to believe what she heard, "Mother, it turns out that you really never treated me as a family!"

The words that the blind woman buried in her heart accidentally said, and she was a little remorseful.

"I'm angry. ”

The woman who was setting up the stall next to her smiled: "Lan Niang, hear it, don't be stupid!"
