Chapter Seventy-Nine
This time it was Aunt Xia's turn to have a black face, and May was a big red face. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info Aunt Xia immediately quit, although because Tian Laibao was in the house, she didn't point fingers, but her usual loud voice was taken out: "Sister-in-law, who are you listening to." I'll have to make this clear for the kid. Someone wanted to marry our family, but we didn't want to, so he pressed us to take May to see each other. May doesn't want to go and can't help it. It's because we didn't have a crush on the family, they have a crush on us for May!"
"Sister-in-law, this is a lifelong event for your niece. Others haven't said anything yet, you're a big aunt and you've arranged it first!"
Aunt Xia and Tian's eyes met, and it seemed that there was a spark crackling, just a little bit.
This is the friendship and affection between the concubines.
Xia Zhi quietly gave the little black fish a look behind Tian's back. The little black fish was waiting for this, he pulled Tian Laibao to jump off the kang together, and then beckoned Xia Zhi: "Let's go, let's play." β
Tian Laibao glanced at Xia Zhi quickly, and was pulled out by the little black fish, while politely saying goodbye to Tian. ββ¦β¦ Disturb the eldest aunt, I will come to see the eldest aunt again. β
"Hey, hey. Tian agreed repeatedly, and sent Tian Laibao out. Aunt Xia's family is here, even if she is reluctant, she can't continue to stay in the field. "Summer solstice, little tree, you should accompany your uncle and Noble to play. Daqiao, you go and take care of it, don't let Noble bump into it. β
Second Aunt Xia also came out, she couldn't see Tian's courteous appearance. Tian watched a few children walk away, and then turned around. When facing Aunt Xia, the courtesy and smile on Tian's face disappeared without a trace.
May was embarrassed by Tian's face, and when she saw Tian Laibao gone, she turned around and went home. I looked around July and walked with this. Xia Zhu and Xia Yang didn't leave, and together with Aunt Xia, they entered the house with the Tian family.
The two children saw the food on the kang table, and after entering the house, they looked at the table with their eyes, especially Xia Yang, whose saliva flowed out. If it was usual, Tian would definitely grab a handful of food for the two children, but today she was angry with Aunt Xia in her heart.
"His second aunt, you sit by yourself, I don't have time to entertain you. Tian said politely, while quickly putting all the food on the table into the cabinet.
"Oh, why are you so hungry, kid. That's your aunt's stuff, and you're going with your aunt by yourself. Second Aunt Xia pushed the drooling Xia Yang onto Tian's body.
Xia Yang looked up at Tian.
Tian was ruthless, she cleaned up by herself, and said, "Oh, Xia Yang is still young, these things are not for you to eat." β
With that, she also removed the kang table and the mattress.
Aunt Xia sat on a mattress, but Tian was not polite to her, and directly ripped the mattress away. Her movements were so fierce that anyone could tell she was angry. If it was someone else, she would have to throw up her sleeves and leave immediately, but Aunt Xia didn't take it seriously, she was thick-skinned.
After Tian finished cleaning up, she saw that Aunt Xia was sitting there, and she was also sitting on the kang. The two looked at each other and looked away.
"Sister-in-law, you wiped the powder today, no wonder it's fragrant, Xiucai lady, it's different from our daughter-in-law. But I don't think you're a little old. Sister-in-law, it's not that I'm tired in Xiaowangzhuang. If only you could come back, if you really work for a month, this person will not be tired and half dead. The talented lady went to collect the vegetables, oops, this is really unusual!"
Tian sneered: "I went to work to collect vegetables, I didn't let the old man scold the dog's blood, and I haven't gotten my little girl yet, I kowtow to people, and I don't know how many times I have been with me." If it were me, I wouldn't be able to ask for this face. β
The two people went head-to-head, both picking each other's most painful places to lower their mouths, and the results were comparable.
After a pause, Aunt Xia raised her wrist and smiled and asked Tian to see the gold bracelet she was wearing. "My niece gave it. Then there were words about how Juanzi was rich and rich, and how good she was. "The style of this bracelet is not in the water town, and it is said that it is only in the city. Sister-in-law, you definitely can't take a fancy to it, you must have something better than this. β
Tian's wrist was slippery, only a thin silver bracelet of less than two coins. She was a little dazzled by Aunt Xia's gold bracelet, and her heart was sour, she pulled the corners of her mouth, pretending not to care.
Aunt Xia deliberately handed her wrist in front of her again.
Tian Shipi didn't smile: "It's real gold, it can't be fake, right?"
Second Aunt Xia didn't do it, so she had to let Tian open her eyes and look at her bracelet: "What's the matter, it's pure gold." Sister-in-law, if you don't know the goods, don't pretend to know the goods. β
Tian couldn't avoid Aunt Xia, so he had to endure his sadness and look at it twice. When she looked at it, she really saw a little bit of a doorway. "This isn't pure gold, this is gilded!" she grabbed Aunt Xia's wrist and looked at it carefully, then laughed. "It's gilded, and it's probably white copper. β
Although Tian didn't have it on her, she used to wear gold jewelry, and to be honest, she knew more than Aunt Xia.
When Aunt Xia saw Tian's determined appearance, she was a little weak-hearted, but she was still strong in face. She pulled back her hand vigorously: "Sister-in-law, you don't have anything good yourself, and you can't see that I have it." If you are not golden, you will be told that it is not golden. You can't see the good of others. I won't tell you. She got up and was about to leave.
How could Tian just let her leave: "Her second aunt, you don't believe what I said, you go to the gold shop in the town and let someone show you." Listen to what people say. That's gilded, and I guess it's not as valuable as my bracelet!"
Aunt Xia said that she couldn't help Tian, so she dropped the curtain and left.
Xia Zhu and Xia Yang were also going to follow. Tian called Xia Zhu with a calm face: "Erzhu, I heard that you told people bad things about your fourth sister, and you also beat your little Shu'er brother?"
"I didn't. Xia Zhu ran away in a puff of smoke, regardless of Xia Yang stumbling on the threshold in a hurry behind him.
Tian had a calm face and scolded in a low voice: "There is no good person in the old Xia family!"
β¦β¦
At the same time, Aunt Xia was also scolding in the east wing of the backyard.
"Heart wolf, except for the few people in her mother's family, she has no one in her heart. Usually tell us how good it is in May and July, but when something happens, she shows her true colors. It's also true, she is like that to her daughters, she can still be good to May and July, she usually has a face, just our honest eyes, and she takes it seriously. β
Usually, Tian and Aunt Xia are very good, and they are close to May and July compared to Xia Zhi, and they always say that they are stronger than Xia Zhi. In addition, Tian's is also good to Xia Zhu and Xia Yang.
Counting it up, this is the first time that Tian has turned his face to a few children.
May still has a face on her face, and she is obviously very badly hit. To say that her face is not thin, but who lets her say that she is Tian. In May's heart, Tian has always been a loving aunt. She is a coquettish child and says a few clever words, and Tian can scold Xia Zhi. Tian told her in person, saying that she was closer than Xia Zhi.
"That's a fierce product who turns his face and doesn't recognize people!" Second Uncle Xia sat on the stool and commented with drooping eyelids. "There are a lot of eyes, and you mothers and sons are not one of them. β
Aunt Xia was not convinced. "In the final analysis, people have confidence. If you're a showman, I'm better than her. Then he talked about how Tian dressed up today, how the house was furnished, and how much food he took out to entertain Tian Laibao. "Let's invite Young Master Tian Laibao, we can put on such a show!"
Second Uncle Xia doesn't like to hear such words. "I won't say much about these useless words. You don't like me, you go now, you find another good one. We can't tell who doesn't like who!"
Aunt Xia was speechless for a moment.
"Daddy, what are you two arguing about now, let's get down to business. May wiped her tears and reminded her.
"We told my aunt everything, why didn't she clean up sixteen. "July has been wondering about it.
"Normally, no matter what it is, as long as we say the last sentence, she can clean up Sixteen. This time it's not going to be easy. Second Aunt Xia also sighed.
"Hehe," Second Uncle Xia sneered, "Tian Laidi can take sixteen as a treasure now, but she is reluctant to clean up sixteen." You haven't seen it yet?!"
Of course, they could see Tian's intentions, so they were particularly angry.
"We can't compete with others. Aunt Xia sighed, and touched the bracelet on her wrist, wondering whether this bracelet was pure gold. Do you want to go to the gold shop in the town next time?
"I don't believe I can't fight for sixteen. May looked up, bit her lip and said. She was still thinking about Tian Laibao in her heart.
Second Uncle Xia looked at his two daughters. If you want to say that you are the same age, it is naturally July. But July is far less clever than May. "The female junior holds the gold bricks, or let May try it. Second Uncle Xia said.
"Tian Laibao is about to return to Fucheng. Xia Zhu said wiltedly.
The big guys all looked at him.
"What I heard under my father's window just now, Tian Laibao said it himself. He also said that he was reluctant to leave, and his father and mother would come to pick him up in two days. β
"Then we'll have to hurry. β
"There's no chance at home. β
"Then go to the door. β
The family got together and muttered for a long time, and they didn't know what the charter had been decided.
β¦β¦
At noon, when Xia Zhi returned home, Tian beckoned her to come to her. There were two pieces of flower cloth in front of Tian, and she was looking at them, as if she didn't know how to choose. "Sixteen, look at these two pieces of cloth, which one are you rare?"
"I'm rare. "Summer Solstice is absent-minded.
"I think it's still good to be red, and call your skin white. Sixteen, you are white, you don't tan, this is like me. As Tian spoke, he tore off the red cloth and compared it with Xia Zhi's body.
Is this to make clothes for her? Xia Solstice was surprised. As far back as she can remember, she never wore a new dress. Her clothes were all changed from the old clothes of other people in the family, and they didn't fit well, they were all fat, and she was planned to wear them for three or five years when she grew up.
"You're not too small, you should wear a skirt too. After Tian compared, he took out a stone pen and painted on the flower cloth, really planning to make a skirt for the summer solstice.
Summer Solstice's eyelids jumped. "Mother, I'm dressed pretty well now. Keep this cloth and make clothes for my two cousins. She didn't mean anything else in her words, but it was not like that in Tian's ears.
Tian quickly raised his eyes and looked at Xia Solstice carefully, not seeing emotions such as resentment on Xia Zhi's face, Tian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "Sixteen, do you hate your mother? Why can't you be considerate and considerate of me? β
"The life of the eldest girl and the second girl is hard. That's your cousin. We're all better than them! Your heart is so hard! Sixteen, this is a good person, and you can't forget your roots. β¦β¦ Your grandfather is old, and your uncle can't do heavy work......"
It's a clichΓ© again, these words, Xia Solstice's ears can hear the cocoon.
"Mother, I just listen to you. Don't make this dress for me, I'm not used to wearing it. Do it for my cousins. β
Tian frowned, suspicious in his heart, he always felt that Xia Zhi's words were not a taste, in the past, when Xia Zhi was the most honest, he would pout and be angry, when was it so "reasonable" like now. But no matter how she looked at the summer solstice, there was nothing abnormal.
"Your cousin, they'll wait a minute, I'll do it for you first. My daughter's dress up must be a hundred better than in May and July!" Tian lowered his head and continued to draw the line, and then took out the scissors to cut the cloth.
I see, Xia Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly. Tian's making her new clothes was not a discovery of her mother's conscience, but to let her compete with May and July. She showed no interest in this, and turned and went to the Westinghouse.
Xia Zhi got up at noon and saw Tian sewing skirts, she didn't tell Tian, so she took the needle and thread to the backyard. She said in the afternoon that she would make a purse with Mrs. Xia and Layue.
The backyard was quiet, and Old Man Xia took the little black fish to the door, and only Mrs. Xia was in the upper room. Everyone thought that the room was boring, so they moved the bench and went to the shade under the west wing to do needlework.
There was no movement in the east wing, Xia Zhi raised his head and looked at it, and asked Layue with his eyes.
"After lunch, I went out, and I didn't know where I went. Because there was no one in the east wing, Layue didn't deliberately lower her voice. Second Uncle Xia and Second Aunt Xia especially like to visit the house, when they are not busy with farming, these two can stay outside for a day in addition to eating.
"My mother said that the second aunt's gold bracelet is not pure gold, it is gilded, there is a layer of gold, and the bottom should be copper. "Xia Solstice said a new gossip. This is what Tian said at the dinner table.
"Ahh
Old Lady Xia didn't seem surprised at all. Xia Zhi had also seen Aunt Xia's bracelet, and she was a little suspicious at the time, so she asked Mrs. Xia: "Milk, do you also see what's wrong?"
