Chapter 58: Hand Injury
Mrs. Lu asked Haoran to go out, although she had the intention of visiting a girl, but she was more afraid that the family would be trapped in the Xia family and be controlled by others at that time.
Seeing that Mrs. Lu told the Xia family about her marriage again, she couldn't help crying again after hearing it, but shook her head and said, "The Xia family is a loyal family." If there is no such injury, it is also a good in-law. It's just that I'm already like this, so why drag others down. ”
Mrs. Lu patted her hand and said, "It's like, you're a good boy." But if you don't marry their Xia family, what will you do in the future? Even if Haoran is willing to take care of you, you will be old in the future, and you won't have any relatives by your side."
It's as if he pursed his lips and didn't answer.
Mrs. Lu also knew that this could not be done in one or two days, but she did not force her. I chatted with her for a while before going back to the room to rest.
In the evening, Ruju really brought two stout mothers-in-law from the house in the city to take care of Wanru.
Xiao Xia's mother-in-law didn't want to appease the Sun family, but really asked the fourth brother to break a wooden fence and lock Ting'er on the bed. The third brother and the third sister-in-law ran to Xiao Xia's mother-in-law to plead again.
Xia Xiucai lay on the couch and roared through the door panel: "These days, your mother is busy. It's been a long time, and she won't be allowed to rest. ”
The third brother and sister-in-law couldn't, so they had to wait until the next day. Early in the morning, the husband and wife ran over to see Mrs. Xiaoxia, and both knelt on the ground and prayed: "I really know that I am wrong." Mother, how can she stand such a detention when she is so young. ”
Xiao Xia rubbed her temples and snorted: "I haven't seen you come so early on weekdays, so I think it's better to hold on." I can finally see my son early every day. ”
The third brother's face turned red, and he had to say stubbornly for the sake of his daughter: "Didn't you live in the city in the past?" Mother, open your grace and raise your hand. ”
Xiao Xia squinted at her son, smiled slightly and said, "You all get up first." ”
Seeing that both of them were kneeling on the ground and not moving, he said again: "Yan Ting will accompany me out for a walk." ”
When the mother and son got out of the courtyard, they went out into the field. The tenants who went to work in the fields on the road saluted them, and Mrs. Xiao Xia also greeted them with a smile.
After a while, the two of them arrived in the Xia family's field. Brother Xia was sowing seeds in the field with his children and nephews, and Little Xia Pozi was standing in the ditch where the seeds had been sown.
The breeze gently stroked her hair, and the third brother looked at his mother, although his face was calm, it made him feel sad for no reason.
Xiao Xia squinted her eyes and whispered: "Look, how good it is here, the surroundings are empty, just say something considerate." ”
The third brother looked at Xiao Xia Pozi with some puzzlement.
Mrs. Xiao Xia also tilted her head to look at him with a smile: "When you were young, your father often said that you were smart. The books that have been taught, you will be able to read them a few times. The understanding is also high, and the family is not good at that time, otherwise you and your eldest brother are both reading materials. ”
The third brother smiled and said, "There's nothing wrong with this now." ”
Mrs. Xiao Xia also smiled: "That's not the case." Then tell me: How do you solve the problem of blessing and misfortune, and how do you solve it?"
The third brother knew that his mother was talking about the Sun family and Ting'er, and he was in turmoil for a while. Although I understood that my mother was reasonable, I couldn't help but harden my heart when I thought that my eldest son was going to marry a wasted man, and I was afraid that he would not even have his own children in the future.
Seeing that his face was cloudy, Xiao Xia Pozi continued lightly: "I guess you also know that my mother used to come out of a big family. ”
The third brother was slightly stunned, he and his eldest brother have muttered about this a lot over the years, but his father and mother have never mentioned it. Thinking like this, I couldn't help but look at Mrs. Xiao Xia curiously.
Xiao Xia didn't continue on this topic, but asked, "Do you know what I would do if I were the Sun family?"
The third brother pondered for a moment and said: "It's all play between children, and the mother will definitely not force it."
Xiao Xia didn't wait for him to finish, and then laughed. Shaking his head, he said, "I'm not kind at all. I will change my relatives and let Haoran marry Ting'er, and Ruju marries Wanru. ”
The third brother was stunned and secretly thought: "The seventh brother said that Haoran is excellent in his studies, as long as he is a jinshi in the opening department, there is no problem." In the past few years, there have also been people who have said goodbye to Ting'er, either from the family of businessmen or from their own talents. If so, Ting'er has climbed high. For a while, there was a look of hesitation on her face, and then she remembered that her mother had said that she was not a soft-hearted person, and she couldn't help but have cold sweat on her back. secretly said that he was still greedy, and such an enemy fell into his own home, but he did not practice it to death.
Xiao Xia Pozi glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Fortune and misfortune depend on it, and misfortune and fortune depend on it." Not really, do you know why?"
The third brother looked at Xiao Xia in puzzlement.
Xiao Xia's face showed a rare little pride, and the third brother couldn't help but be surprised when he saw it.
"Thinking that my family withered back then and fell alone in Zhaowang Village, how many people thought that I would definitely die if I suffered such a catastrophe. But I have chosen your father, and over the years, who has not said that I am blessed. Could it be that my blessing is due to the great calamity ahead?" Xiao Xia shook her head and said slowly: "I judged the time and carefully relied on your brother to get it. ”
"In this world, there are people who can turn good things into bad things, and there are people who can turn bad things into good things. Tell me, "What's the benefit of marrying the Sun family?"
The third brother lowered his head and whispered reluctantly: "The enmity of this two family is gone." ”
Xiao Xia nodded: "What else?"
The third brother thought for a while: "Miss Sun is from an official eunuch family, and in the future, Sun Haoran will come out, and she will naturally be pulled like a horse." ”
Xiao Xia Pozi smiled and bowed: "And!"
The third brother thought and shook his head.
"Others, it's going to be a gamble. As he spoke, he raised his head slightly, looked into the distance and said, "Miss Sun may not be paralyzed all the time. The doctor said it could still be treated. ”
"Well. A sarcastic smile appeared on Xiao Xia's face: "The Sun family may not agree to this family business." ”
The third brother was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it again, he understood. If you marry like this, your in-laws won't give you a good look, and if you feel sorry for the girl, it's really possible to raise it at home. Thinking about it like this, he and Xiuxiu are unfounded. It was the mother who put her posture out so that the Sun family had nothing to find fault with.
Xiao Xia's mother-in-law turned her head to look at the third brother Zhengse and said, "If something like this happens, have you and the third sister-in-law gone to see the girl of the Sun family?"
The third brother's face was slightly red, and he moved his lips and said, "Mother has been to see it the same." ”
Xiao Xia shook her head: "You are a man, and it is common sense that you can't think of it." After that, he shook his head and sighed: "Yanting, since she can't think of this, you have to worry more about it and go back and do it." ”
The third brother nodded yes, and inevitably asked for a few words of love for Ting'er.
Xiao Xia sighed: "Ting'er, this child, has a left-handed temperament. You go to see the girl of the Sun family first, and then talk about it. Alas, the girl's family will marry into her mother-in-law's family in the future, and no one in the family will be close to each other, and her temperament will be like this, but I am afraid"
The third brother couldn't hear it, so he had to go back and tell the third sister-in-law to go and see the girl of the Sun family first, and talk about it later.
Sun Wanru saw the third brother and his wife, and remembered that his aunt talked about marriage yesterday, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Hurriedly asked the rough Mother Li to pour tea, and said apologetically: "It's really rude to lie on the bed like this." ”
The third sister-in-law hurriedly said: "It's all Ting'er who has caused a monstrous disaster, it's rare that you are not jealous at a young age." ”
"It's my sisters' fun, but it's my own bad luck. I heard that Aunt Xia also punished Ting'er, and I really didn't want to go. ”
The third sister-in-law immediately smiled and said, "This is the girl's generosity, and Ting'er is too reckless." It's good to punish her for a few days to have a long memory, but in the end, you are a golden branch and jade leaf, a young lady from everyone's background, where can we compare with country girls. ”
The third brother looked at it coldly, and saw that he didn't show any displeasure on his face as if he had listened to the sarcasm of the third sister-in-law, but said apologetically: "Now it's not good for me to plead with Ting'er, but it seems that you forced me to go." I'm afraid that my aunt will get more and more angry, so let's wait a day or two. ”
Seeing his daughter being locked in bed and crying, and then seeing that he knew that his injury was serious, but he coped with it so decently, the third brother couldn't help but think: "If it's good, it's really our family." "I don't resist this family business so much in my heart, but secretly compare my own daughter with me. Looking at the third sister-in-law again, she was a little disappointed in her heart.
As soon as the third brother and sister-in-law left, Xiaoyu ran in like a fly, wiping the sweat on her face and saying, "Oh, sister, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm late today." ”
It was as if she smiled and asked the rough mother-in-law to move a chair over, and asked Xiaoyu to sit on the edge of the bed: "Where are you going to be naughty again, you are sweating all over your body." ”
Xiaoyu used her hand as a fan, fanning non-stop, and drank the tea handed over by her mother-in-law. Then he said anxiously: "How can I be naughty, I went to decoct medicine for my second brother, and you smell the smell of medicine on your body at this time." ”
As if taken aback, he propped up his arms and said, "What's wrong with Second Brother Xia?"
Xiaoyu smiled slyly: "He deserves it, he split my plum with one palm yesterday." Hmph, now my hands are swollen like a steamed bun. My plums are about to bloom. This is the first time I've seen it bloom. Now that she has Mother Li, she has a lot of strength, and she originally planned to take you out to see it today, but now it's all gone. ”
As he spoke, he jumped up and ran out like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, he came back with a branch of wax plum with the thickness of his arm, and inserted it into the pen holder on the table. The branches hit the window lattice with a crackling sound. Xiaoyu tried for a long time, but she didn't insert it, so she had to give up. Another gust of wind broke off a branch and walked away.
It was like catching a glimpse of the thick branches of the plum, and I couldn't help but worry about the injury of the second brother. After a while, Ai Ai asked: "Second brother is so seriously injured, you go and take care of him, I just have Mother Li here." ”
