Chapter Ninety-Six: Shame on Stalls?
"Is it your eldest aunt?" Li was stunned when he heard that it was the person at the other end of the old mansion, and subconsciously reached out to put away the account book, but he was really afraid that those people would say crooked things when they looked at the account book, so he turned his head and asked his husband, "Why didn't you hang the door, father?"
"I'm ...... I was in a hurry to go into the house to pack up my things and settle the accounts, and I forgot about it for a while. Shen Chenghou also remembered that he was responsible for hanging the gate every day, and he forgot about it when he sent someone back today, so he let Yu Shi break into the yard directly, but fortunately, the door was hung up.
Qixi didn't stop it, her mother hid the account book in the cabinet, and there were two pieces of paper on the table, and Jingwen happened to sit there to teach the stone to write.
"Mother, don't worry, even if it is handed to her, she can't understand what we write, one day patronizing and gossiping, how can she have the time to learn to read? Maybe she can't even write her own name, which like her mother will settle accounts now." Before getting off the kang, he couldn't help but hurt Yu's sentence, and made Li so funny that he couldn't help laughing, and then he walked over and opened the door on Qixi Festival.
Walked to the door and stopped first, and waited for Yu to start knocking impatiently on the door again before opening it suddenly, seeing that Yu was frightened, Qixi pouted and said: "Uncle, what's the urgency here? Even if my door is strong, I can't stand the knock of the uncle, right?"
Yu Shi was so frightened that his heart flickered, and he was about to be annoyed when he opened his mouth, and when he saw that it was Qixi to open the door, he still swallowed the words that came to his mouth.
glared at Qixi before entering the door, and as soon as she entered the room, she saw the paper and pen on the table, and let her find the words again, and sneered: "Oh, this kid of yours is good, I really have a lot of knowledge." I don't go to school and study at home by myself. Why are you still planning to come out with a champion?"
"What you learn at home may not be good in the future. It's been more than ten years in the school and I haven't read anything, I really don't know what kind of energy I still have to read?" Qixi opened his mouth and went straight to Yu's heart, seeing that she was angry enough to choke before saying, "What's the matter with my aunt? My house lamp is lit to read and write, not to chatter." ”
Yu's face was terrifyingly dark, and she stared at Qixi for a long time, but it was true that her eldest son was not even a child until now, so she gritted her teeth and ignored Qixi. Turning his head to look at Shen Chenghou, he said stiffly: "Dad let you go." ”
"Sister-in-law, what's the matter with my father looking for me?" The couple glanced at each other, and Shen Chenghou couldn't help but ask.
"What do you ask, let you go, you can go, what's the matter, why can't you please move when you have money?" Yu Shi said unhappily, and couldn't stop his eyes from spitting around.
If it weren't for the fact that she came to see what their house was like now, she would have rushed here this big night, and when she saw that there was nothing in the house, she didn't even add anything decent, so she was a little unwilling. His eyes ran to the kang cabinet and went.
Who is pretending to be poor, who doesn't know that the dumplings are sold one by one. If you don't make money, you can still spend money to hire someone to make dumplings? But that's the end of it, I see what else you can earn.
"You hurry up, why do you still let your father wait for you at home at that age? He glanced at it a few more times without giving up, but he didn't dare to turn it over, so Yu Shi said that his nose was not a nose and his face was not a face, and he turned his head and shook the door and left.
Shen Chenghou had to take his coat and put it on to prepare for a trip, and Qixi also hurriedly put on his coat: "Dad, I'll go with you." ”
Jingwen Jingsheng is also busy keeping up, the old house is a tiger's den and a wolf's nest in their eyes, especially if his father goes by himself, it is a sheep into the tiger's mouth.
Several children wanted to follow, so Qixi stopped them: "Brother, sister, you stay with your mother at home, settle the accounts, and then hang the door, I'll just go with my father." ”
The road into the village was quiet, many people on both sides of the road turned off the lights and went to sleep, Yu walked in front, father and daughter followed behind, and no one spoke.
I really don't know what kind of moth those people are going to come out of the old house, Qixi looked at her father's somewhat sad face, and couldn't help but sigh, why can't I see people every day?
When I entered the door, I saw that the Shen family was there, and they didn't stay in the rooms this big night, and they were just waiting to find her family, which was really idle.
"The third brother is here, hey, Xi'er is also here, sit down, sit ......down," Jiang was sitting at the door, and when he saw the two men coming in, he stood up and let the stool out, and found a place to sit on the edge of the kang.
The old man sank his face, and it was rumored that he only let Shen Chenghou come over, what was the matter with a child who came over, especially when he saw that it was Tanabata that came with him, his face was even more cold.
Shen Chenghou didn't expect the second sister-in-law to be so polite, so he smiled at her gratefully, and Qixi didn't care what the old man's face was, pulled her father to sit down on the stool, didn't speak, and waited for the old man to speak.
The old man didn't open his mouth, who dared to interject in this room, Qixi saw that her father was uncomfortable, so he reached over and pulled his sleeve, and smiled at her father.
Seeing the smiling face of the little girl, Shen Chenghou was much more down-to-earth in his heart, and couldn't help but think, no matter what his father wanted to say, he just had to think more about his wife and children.
Seeing that the father and daughter were still laughing and not taking it seriously, the old man panicked in his heart, and finally stopped hanging it, coughed and said the meaning of calling them.
Shen Chenghou was a little stunned at first, but when he understood his father's words, his hands couldn't help but tremble a little, and he couldn't say anything about the feeling floating in his heart, but he didn't say anything.
What did his father say? He was not allowed to set up a stall, saying that counting how many generations in the past, the old Shen family was also a serious farming and living, and no one ran to the street to shout for business without shame, saying that setting up a stall had lost the face of their old Shen family.
Qixi also heard it clearly, and couldn't help sneering, not letting the stall be set up, then it was to give more silver when the family was separated.
They didn't even give a grain of rice, and no one took care of them when they didn't have a meal, and now it's a shame to earn a stutter, who is embarrassed? When did they treat her family as the Shen family?
"Okay, let's go, don't put that stall tomorrow or something. The old man saw that the third child didn't speak, thinking that he was in response, and he didn't bother to look at him and began to pick up people, and the sarcastic tone in his words was heard by a person, "Don't say anything about being embarrassed to go to the town, and still hire someone in the village, and I'm not afraid that someone will poke the backbone in the back, my old Shen family can't afford to lose that person." ”
"Selling dumplings? Even your dumplings are also bought? Maybe one day people will eat people badly, I think you are still getting worse day by day, and the village is not enough for you to show off." Shen Chenghuai's face was full of jealousy, "Let me tell you, Dad can say it, I finally found a good family at home, and Huaiyu's good eight characters will definitely make our Shen family make a career in the future, don't be ashamed to show me bad things." ”
"That's it, do you really think that you are a powerful person, and you still do business? Don't you look at your parents' luck?" Yu still remembered the ten cents that were asked to go, and chattered, "You still need money to eat your bowl of dumplings, why do you have that face and open your mouth, you are ......?"
"Dad, let's go home, Ming'er's personal family came to get dumplings early in the morning, and we have to get up early to get busy." Qixi didn't wait for them to finish, without saying a word, she stood up and pulled her father to leave, knowing that Lu Dao was going to say that this was simply not used, and turned around and glanced at a few people from the Yu family, "Some people still don't always instigate behind their backs, and specialize in things that harm others and themselves, so let's accumulate some virtue for ourselves." ”
"What are you talking about, who are you scolding, dead?" Yu jumped up when she heard this, and before anyone else could speak, she took her own seat first.
"Stand up for me!" shouted the old man when he heard that the dead girl's words were wrong, which meant that the stall still had to be set up.
"What else does the master want to say? Don't let my family set up a stall?" Qixi was obedient and really stood still, turned his head and looked at the old man coldly, "When the family was divided, I gave it to my family when I was divided, and I knew what my master had in mind, seeing that it was winter, would we be able to eat the land or drink the northwest wind, or did the master plan to let our family starve to death? If we are in the way, we will divide it, so is this not good? Now you are not happy to see us earn a stutter? What is wrong with us setting up a stall, who is in the way? You can't give people a way to live?"
"Our family doesn't steal or rob, every penny is earned with our own hands, what's there to be ashamed of? If you want to say shameful, it's not my family, it's not my family, it's lazy and greedy, stealing chickens and dogs, and those who are worried about other people's houses, in my opinion, that's a shame, if the ancestors of the old Shen family are really ashamed, then they can't find my family, who to find. ”
"Didn't you say that the girl of the Wang family is a good and prosperous house, why are you still afraid of being given by my family? If that's the case, you should change your daughter-in-law, I don't think that girl's eight characters are good enough. ”
After saying this, the room was silent, no one thought that this little girl would dare to say all this without scruples, and the old man was even stunned and didn't open his mouth.
Ignoring the eyes of those people, the two of them stood up and left, Shen Chenghou was pulled out by the little girl, but when he walked to the door, he suddenly stopped, Qixi was startled, and hurriedly pulled her father: "Dad, why don't you leave?"
Shen Chenghou touched his little daughter's head to signal her not to be afraid, turned sideways and didn't look at his father, lowered his head and said, "Dad, you should rest early, we will go home, this stall ...... We still have to swing. I said a long time ago, there is nothing at home, it is already a bitter child and his mother and children, the family can't starve to death, if my father thinks that I have embarrassed the Shen family, he will ...... Just ......"
didn't say anything in the end, but Shen Chenghou stiffened his temper and didn't look back, pulling the little girl and walking out with his head down.
"Hey, the third child is here?" This push door happened to meet the neighbor who also opened the door and came in, and happened to hear Shen Chenghou talking about the stall, and immediately remembered that the daughter-in-law at home said that she also wanted to work, and she didn't enter this door, so she turned around and went with her, "The third child, you wait, do you still want people to do that bag of dumplings in your house?"
