Chapter 178: Thoughts
In the eyes of the eldest uncle, now that the family is rich, the eldest sister is going to get married, and as an elder brother, she must express it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Besides, if it weren't for the relationship with the eldest sister, how could he, a small second-class dealer, catch up with the Yang family and achieve such a position today?
But the second aunt didn't think so. The rules of the countryside, the son will be separated when he becomes a family, and now the second uncle's business is doing well, except for honoring his parents, it is his own property. When will it be the turn of the elder brother to marry this daughter?
To say that this second aunt can be said to be the most unlikable existence of the Yi family. At the beginning, because of his good looks, he was taken by the second uncle at a glance. Her family is poor, and the situation is complicated, but as the saying goes, "raise your head to marry your daughter and bow your head to marry your daughter-in-law", and her grandmother and grandfather are also open-minded people, not only agreed to the marriage of the young couple, but also promised that the second uncle would support her mother-in-law (because their mother and daughter depend on each other), which is already a rare reasonableness.
But maybe it's because of her own background, she is so strong and inferior, she always feels that others look down on her, and she can't wait for herself to be the most outstanding. The eldest aunt has a gentle temperament and never fights, and later went out with her husband, and she is usually fine. Since last year, the second uncle has made money, and at the beginning of the year, he approved a two-story small building in the house, which is the first in ten miles and eight townships!
According to such a big limelight, the second aunt should be happy, right? Not! The bad thing is that while the second uncle built his own house, he also helped the eldest brother build one, and the two brothers' buildings were made beautiful, and everyone who walked by had to praise them.
But the second aunt thought, the eldest brother is a national cadre, and the sister-in-law has become a temporary worker in the unit to eat commercial grain, and the unit has also divided the dormitory, so the two of them don't have a good life! Although your man has made money, how can you say that he is still a rural person, and his parents haven't spoken, where is your turn to worry?
The second uncle's idea was simple. If you have money, your family will definitely have a good life. The eldest brother broke up, what happened to his work? Not coming back? The big and small family of four, the children are all older, and the old house must not be able to live. This is not just the right time to build a house, so we quickly built it together and let the family move to a new house. The younger brother is still young, and he will definitely express himself when he gets married in the future, but the eldest sister is about to go out, so she can't be wronged!
The second aunt was unhappy, but she was smart and never complained in front of men, but showed her grandparents a look. Outside of the words, it seems that the family now lives on their second room. That's not all, as soon as the house was finished, he turned his head and took his wife over to live, saying that he had said that he would support his mother for the end.
The son was angry, and the newly built small building had not been lived in for a day, and it was occupied by his mother-in-law. The two of the key people didn't greet each other, and they looked like they were taken for granted, but they made their grandmother angry. This kind of behavior of not taking parents seriously is very bad in the countryside. Especially to support the woman's parents, saying that they agree, then you also have to be old, and the couple can take care of it, how can you live in such a big way?
The second uncle is a fool, he knows how busy he is to go out early and return late all the time, and he doesn't know the undercurrent at home. He also felt that it was a little inappropriate for his mother-in-law to come over, but the mother-in-law cried and cried and said that her mother was so pitiful alone, thinking that her house was not small, and it was not bad to live alone, so she agreed. He's actually a kind-hearted guy who always wants to take care of everyone.
The son is also older, and what he agrees to, no matter how old the grandmother is, she can't object. Wouldn't that destroy my son's family? Besides, the daughter-in-law is used to making faces, and she shouts "Mom" not too affectionately, but she can't see anything she takes. So she endured it, but after a long time, her heart became cold, and she usually didn't care about her daughter-in-law at all.
Therefore, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is an eternal problem. Like my grandmother, who is kind and good-natured, she finally got into trouble with her daughter-in-law, and she is completely incomprehensible. This time to marry her daughter, the son generously prepared these novel dowries, and the grandmother was very happy, but when she saw the stinky face of her daughter-in-law, it seemed that someone had taken advantage of her, and the grandmother was angry and didn't know where to fight.
The eldest daughter-in-law doesn't have much money in her hand, but after she goes to work, she rushes several sets of "covers" to send back, which is her intention. The second daughter-in-law takes care of the children at home all day long, doesn't do anything in the field, and treats herself as a young grandmother, not doing nothing? It is said that the sister-in-law must be made by herself to add needlework and makeup to be called sincere, she is good, she doesn't even bother to buy it, and clearly expresses her dissatisfaction.
Regarding the affairs of the Yi family, Yi Huifen didn't say anything, and Yang Xiaobei also knew. The second aunt is such a person, with such a personality, people hate dogs. But who called the second uncle like it? The two of them haven't lived a lifetime, and there are many grandmothers, daughters, daughters-in-law, and daughters-in-law, and they are not worse than her, out of sight and out of mind. Yi Huifen is also relieved, the family has prepared so much for herself, what is there to be dissatisfied? Sister-in-law, no matter how you say it, she is also an "outsider", so let's not worry about her.
The Yi family is like this, and the Yang family doesn't need to say it. It's like he's busy like something. But the Yang family is the final word of the Yang family, and there will be no moths at all. This year, I raised two pigs early, and when the time comes, I will hold a banquet and give gifts, the more the merrier. From the first half of the year, we began to prepare tile embryos and brick embryos. Then he asked a craftsman to burn a kiln and gather all the materials for building the house.
I had to go up the hill again to choose timber. The main beams are all good pine, and Yang Laohan has long been optimistic about it. Ask someone to cut it early and transport it home to dry it. There is also the wood of the roof beams, which is generally made of cedar trees, which are uniform in size and thickness, and are prepared in advance. Then there is the river to dig for sand and fine stones...... In short, everything is prepared by himself, Yang Laohan arranged it in an orderly manner, and he spent the whole year preparing materials in his spare time.
After the autumn harvest, the Yang family will officially build a house. The foundation was already asked to come to see by my grandfather, and the old house was reluctant to be demolished, or a new house built next to it. At his own daughter's house, of course, my grandfather tried his best to calculate for a long time with a compass handed down from his ancestors before choosing the direction of the house.
Generally speaking, houses are built facing north and south. Although the feng shui terminology is very obscure, he said to Xiaobei in the vernacular, "It is necessary to consider many factors such as terrain, wind direction, light, magnetic field, etc., so that the selected direction will make people comfortable to live in and the family will prosper." ā
Feng Shui is mysterious, but in the final analysis, it is the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancestors. It is definitely not superstition, if you know enough, you can find that it contains a lot of subtle knowledge, which can be completely consistent with many scientific truths, and if you can't find an explanation, most of them are just people who have not yet studied its mysteries.
It takes a month to build a house this year, to say the least. If nothing else, the foundation of the light will have to be built for a week. It has to be dug out by manpower, and if there is an excavator, it can be done in an hour or two. As you can imagine, the efficiency is so low. Generally, there will be one or two "bricklayers", and then a few small workers, no more than 5 workers to work. The rest of the people who helped were all the relatives and neighbors at home, and everyone was helping each other.
