Chapter 270: Mi Sin
But what should be talked about is still to be talked about, about the second daughter's emotional problems, the Yi family's parents are undeniable, they have always been more broad to their children, strict requirements in education, but they are completely free in lifelong events, the second is like this, the eldest daughter is also like this, they just check it. The problem now is that the two adult sons are not there, and the eldest daughter is firmly opposed, so things are not easy to do.
"Anyway, I don't agree, the age difference is too big, and I've been engaged before, who knows what's going on! The Wang family is not a good family either. Yi Huifen said a lot excitedly, looking at the second sister who was still indifferent, she was very angry. Don't think that it's good to see it now, marriage is a big deal, what if you choose the wrong person?
"I understand what the eldest sister said. I don't care if the Wang family is broken, we all said that we will settle in the county seat. Isn't Becky like this now? "I'll go! How did it get to her? Yang Xiaobei, who is teasing her baby son, is inexplicable, is she a positive example or a negative teaching material?
"Ahem." My grandfather, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said, "Actually...... I'm ten years older than your mother! ”
Belch...... Yi Huifen was dumbfounded. Co-authored her for a long time, does it mean to reflect her parents? "I don't mean anything, I just ......," she explained awkwardly, but the more she spoke, the more embarrassed she became.
This can't be blamed on her, of course she knows the age of her parents, but how can she compare the things of that era? She never thought about it either. Grandpa smiled and said, "I don't blame you, I mean, in fact, age is not a problem at all, as long as the person is right." ”
Hey? Why are you arguing and arguing, even the privacy of your grandparents is being said? Yang Xiaobei had never heard of this, so he looked east and west curiously. When I got older, the difference of 10 years was not obvious, and my grandfather had never suffered in his life, but my grandmother was full of weather, and I couldn't see the difference of ten years between them.
In that era, it was common to get married in your teens, and the conditions of the Yi family were good, how could there be such a big difference? Grandpa saw their doubts, which he had never talked about with his children, after all, it was not a glorious thing. But now that the focus of the second daughter's affairs is here, he doesn't mind taking it out and talking about it, it's all old! What else can't be said?
"I'm actually a step-room, and your father used to have a wife." Grandma said more calmly. It's not that she didn't say it, when she used to do sports, it was too late to cover it tightly, the children were all young, what if she didn't know what to do!
What rice? Mother is a steproom? Is the father married for the second time? Yi Huifen, who was still upright just now, was shocked, she never thought that such a big secret would blow up from her second sister. "It's no secret, it's just that you didn't tell you when you were young." My grandmother said, "When I got married, your father was 28 years old, ten years older than me!" ”
It turned out that when my grandfather was young, he also became a relative early under the arrangement of his family. But unfortunately, the "ex-grandmother" was in poor health and did not get pregnant for a long time. The Yi family is a big family, and there is only one single seedling (Yi Zhishu is a cousin), so naturally it can't go on like this. At that time, the bad custom of taking concubines was also abolished, and there seemed to be only one ending to go.
Except for the wife who can't get pregnant, everything is fine, the young husband and wife, raise their eyebrows, the girl is also from a scholar's family, and the relationship between the two is very good. The Yi family can be regarded as benevolent and righteous, and they waited for 7 years, but there was still no news of the heir, so they went to the woman's family to discuss.
This was very humiliating at the time, seven years without anything, it was in line with the conditions of "seven out", the Yi family could divorce his wife, so that the woman's family could not raise their heads. However, after discussing with her in-laws, the young lady invited herself to the court, which saved a little face. My grandfather didn't do anything here, even if he had feelings, it was a heavy mission to carry on the lineage. There is also the inheritance of what the family has learned, and in front of these, their personal feelings are so insignificant.
Later, the Yi family gave the step-room to be her grandmother, who was not highly educated and barely literate. The biggest advantage of the Yi family is that she is healthy and good to have children, and her grandmother is also angry, she became pregnant in the first year after entering the door, and then she was out of control and gave birth to 6 children in one go.
"That'...... What about my grandmother before? Yang Xiaobei was dumbfounded when she heard this, she couldn't imagine that the kind wife would do such a cruel thing as beating a mandarin duck! In fact, she doesn't understand that in the face of the family's reproduction and inheritance, everything is a floating cloud. Maybe the grandmother was also very satisfied with the previous daughter-in-law, but in the face of the family's interests, even the grandfather could only compromise.
"Alas! She was not in good health, and when she returned home, she ...... It ended in depression very early. "Now my grandfather is very indifferent when I talk about it, but the depression and pain of my youth seem to be just yesterday. Since then, he has not been in charge of things, and his family has completely let go, and he has been immersed in his own world all day long. If you don't pay attention, the children are all older, and even the second girl has a sweetheart......
Tsk, another victim of feudal society. However, such an ending is still normal in later generations, and no one in the countryside will maintain a marriage without offspring - after all, the purpose of marriage is to reproduce, just like Sister Wang and the Tan family. Even if you adopt one, you can make a fool of yourself. At that time, my grandfather could only choose to divorce, because the heavy pressure almost broke his wife, and he thought that leaving this family would make her feel better, who knows......
Grandma and grandfather are also old husbands and young wives, and after she married in, she served her in-laws, gave birth to children, and took good care of her grandfather. The family was affected by the movement, the land was divided, and there was nothing left, and they worked hard to manage the housework, and never complained. The two of them may have been in love before, but they have long been like relatives. But this kind of life does not mean that she has no regrets in her heart.
Two people who have regrets in their hearts have the same tacit understanding in the marriage of their children. There is nothing better than being with a loved one, and the couple who have gone through all the ups and downs just hope that the children are okay and happy, and that's enough.
In line with this idea, the eldest son and daughter-in-law looked at each other on a blind date, and lived in harmony and beauty. The second son himself took a fancy to people, and although they were a little dissatisfied, they did not object. Huifen is the same, she herself has taken a fancy to Qitai, isn't it great? Only a good temperament like Qitai can tolerate her short-tempered her.
But maybe Huifen herself was too smooth, so that she had forgotten the gains and losses when she was happy with Qitai. The grandfather didn't want to convince his daughter to change her mind, but just told his story so that she could understand what the most important thing about marriage was.
Maybe it was because the amount of information was too much, maybe it was hit, Yi Huifen opened her mouth and couldn't say anything. Yang Qitai gently held her hand and said, "Mom and Dad are very reasonable. Age, experience, or even family background are not a problem, as long as the two of them feel good and truly love each other, it is enough. ”.
