069 Back to Jiuli Pavilion
Xue Ye frowned slightly, "If that's the case, I'm afraid this kid won't get the name he deserves." ”
Eleven Niang nodded, she was also worried about this matter.
The two silently cleaned up, Eleven Niang made a pot of tea, and the two sat on the kang by the window and talked. Xue Ye said suddenly, "The people of Qingshui Town are simple, if your eldest sister gives birth out of wedlock, I am afraid it will cause an uproar." Moreover, at home, he always hides the words that are accidentally known by Uncle Xia and Aunt Luo......"
Shi Niang looked up at him, Xue Ye looked solemn, and said thoughtfully, "If your eldest sister really wants this child, I will send her to another place to give birth, on the one hand, she can rest assured that her body is good, and on the other hand, it also saves Uncle Xia and Aunt Luo from worrying from time to time." Eleven Niang, what do you think? ”
Eleven Niang lowered her eyes slightly, as if she was thinking about Xue Ye's words, Xue Ye was a little worried, seeing that Eleven Niang didn't speak for a long time, thinking that she was thinking about something wrong, she hurriedly said, "If it doesn't work, let's think of other ways......
"The eldest sister was imprisoned in the firewood room for a few days, and the road was bumpy when she came back from the capital, and the child was safe and sound......" Eleven Niang raised her eyes and smiled slightly at Xue Ye, "My little nephew is a big one." At this time, if the fetus does not fall, it hurts the eldest sister's body...... That's a lifetime thing! Therefore, this child is to be kept no matter what......" This is also the conclusion she has been thinking about for a few days, but it is easy to keep the child, and how to keep the child is the key.
Xue Ye saw that Shi Niang didn't blame himself, so he sighed lightly, pursed his lips and thought, and after a moment, he smiled with bright eyes, "Aren't you going to send Uncle Hu's family to Jianghuai during the New Year?" It's better to let your eldest sister follow, just say take your eldest sister out for a walk......" Before he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something, his face turned pale, and his eyes were flustered.
Shi Niang didn't notice it, and when she heard his advice, her eyes lit up violently, and she nodded with a smile, "How did I forget this stubble, it's really a good idea, I'll go back to discuss with the eldest sister." ”
With that, he got up and walked out.
Xue Ye breathed a long sigh of relief, only to realize that a thin layer of sweat had appeared on his forehead. Lips and teeth murmured, "Fortunately, Eleven Niang didn't find out that I sent someone to follow her......"
When he returned home, Xia Chenghe and Luo were discussing when to send back the ten taels of filial piety silver to the old man Xia and the old lady in the old house, and Banniang muttered on the side, "What to send, even our house is occupied, and I will only be ......angry when I go back."
Erniang and Sanniang looked worried, Yuan Niang hung her head and said something to Xiao Twelve, Xiao Twelve twisted awkwardly in Yuan Niang's arms, Eleven Niang hurriedly walked over, hugged Xiao Twelve into her arms, and gently scraped the bridge of her nose, "What's wrong with my little Twelve?" Who bullied you? Tell Sister Eleven, see how Sister gives us Little Twelve angry......"
"Don't want my father and mother to go back......" Xiao Twelve raised his head, his small mouth was pouted high, his big eyes were watery, and he was very aggrieved and pulled Eleven's placket jacket, "They bully people......"
The immature voice was soft and glutinous, with a slight cry, but it made the hall instantly silent.
Eleven Niang smiled and wiped the tears on Xiao Twelve's face, "Little Twelve don't cry, there is a sister, don't let those people in the old house bully Daddy!" ”
Little Twelve shook his head, very stubborn, "Don't don't ......"
Eleven Niang hugged Xiao Twelve into her arms, "Doesn't Little Twelve like my sister the most?" Why don't you believe what my sister said? ”
Little Twelve craned her neck and looked at Eleven Niang pitifully, "Eleventh Sister will also bully ......"
The little guy is afraid that she will be bullied when she goes back?!
Eleven Niang's heart was slightly warm, wrapped up the whole round body of Little Twelve, and smiled, "Eleventh Sister is good at kung fu, whoever dares to bully Eleven Sister, Eleventh Sister will beat her up with a falling flower, and there is no return!" Good no good? ”
Little Twelve blinked and looked at Eleven Niang, her little head tilted, and her little mouth still pouted, "Really? ”
Eleven Niang nodded heavily, "Really! ”
The old house gave such a big 'New Year's gift' to the third room, how can they have to exchange gifts, and send back a 'New Year's gift', otherwise, let the old house live in peace this year, what can they do with the tone of the third room?
A smile suddenly appeared on the little twelve's round face, his eyebrows and eyes were like a crescent moon, but there was clearly a teardrop hanging from the corner of his eye.
Banniang jumped down from the chair and ran over, touching Xiao Twelve's head very much, "Little Twelve, it's good!" ”
Little Twelve giggled.
Yuan Niang smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.
Erniang and Sanniang also chuckled.
Xia Chenghe and Luo glanced at each other, the former smiled bitterly, and the latter glanced at the former fiercely.
Eleven Niang raised her head while holding Xiao Twelve, and said to the two, "Dad, mother, hurry up or not late, since we promised ten taels of silver on the family separation paperwork, it is better to send it tomorrow, lest those people in the old house chew the root of their tongues in the village again." ”
The couple remembered that the old man Xia and the old lady gave the house in the village to Xia Hongxia to live in without asking them, and there were even rumors in the village that their husband and wife agreed.
Luo's heart was blocked, and he glared at Xia Chenghe again, and Xia Chenghe laughed dryly.
"Send it, I'll send it tomorrow! Sooner or later, you have to run this trip, why bother people to poke their backbones in the back! Roche made a final decision, with a little annoyance in his voice.
Xia Chenghe nodded, "Cheng, then go back tomorrow." ”
Banniang hurriedly jumped over and grabbed Luo's arm, "Mother, I'll go back with you." ”
"What can you do when you go back? Stay at home......" Luo frowned, thinking of the old lady's temper and refusing Banniang without thinking about it, she went back to listen to two sentences of scolding, she didn't want to even her own daughter to be scolded!
Banniang was unwilling, rolled up her sleeves, and snorted, "I'll go back and watch, if they bully my father, I'll beat them!" After learning a few tricks from Huichun, she couldn't wait to find a place to try her hand.
Luo was stunned for a moment, and wanted to lose his temper at his daughter, but Yu Guang swept to several daughters with worried faces and smiled, "Cheng, follow if you want, if they dare to bully us, go up and beat them!" ”
Xia Chenghe! ”
Xia Chenghe was dumbfounded.
It was Banniang's turn to be stunned, reacted, rubbed her hands, laughed, her eyes were shining, and she was very obscene.
It was obviously a sad topic, but the people in the room couldn't stop laughing because of her appearance......
Eleven Niang didn't find the time when Yuan Niang was alone, thinking that there was still a period of time before Hu Laohan's family went to Jianghuai, so she suppressed this matter first, and talked to Banniang lying on the quilt for an hour.
Following.
Luo got up early, ate breakfast, packed up three New Year's gifts, and said to Xia Chenghe, "I'm thinking about sending one to my uncle's family, her father, do you think it's okay?" ”
Xia Chenghe nodded, "Okay!" When we planted the rice, the eldest brother did not help less, and on weekdays we were in the town, the eldest brother also helped us take care of the fields, I think we could add a little more......"
Roche thought for a while, took out a makeup box from the cabinet, opened it, and took the set of sterling silver heads, "This set of heads and faces is given to sister-in-law, okay?" ”
"Isn't it a little expensive?"
"Won't it?"
Sterling silver head, fine workmanship, ingenious design, regardless of weight, how can the lifelike flowers and birds not be cheap, in case you take it back, sister-in-law dare not ask for it......
Xia Chenghe and Luo looked at each other.
In the end, Roche picked a pair of ordinary-looking bracelets, a silver hairpin, and a few gauze flowers from the crowd of jewelry, and then relieved to put the things in a smaller box and put them together with the assigned things.
But I don't know that the pair of seemingly inconspicuous bracelets are authentic old pit ice species, and they are many times more expensive than that set of sterling silver heads.
Xia Chenghe thought about it, and asked Luo to pick out a few gadgets, and prepared to visit the village chief to send them to their daughters in the family, and the other family prepared a cotton cloth.
"Dad, are you really going to do this? In case the old man and the old lady talk about it......"
"Eleven Niang is right, that house is in the village, there is no reason for our family to take it to give favors." Xia Chenghe smiled slightly and patted Luo's hand, "It's not that there is no place for my father and mother to keep my eldest sister at home, and our family of eight didn't live in the old mansion before, so we can't live anywhere." Besides...... "Daddy really wants to scold him, and he doesn't need to make any excuses."
Luo came out and called Yan Xia to go to the carriage and horse shop to find the guy who was driving the car.
Yan Xia smiled and blessed, "Madam, the slave and the maid have learned, and a slave and maid are here to catch the car today." ”
Banniang heard that she was going to take a carriage home, and she was very entangled, "Mother, what if the people in the old mansion take a fancy to our carriage and want to grab it?" ”
Luo was stunned, and went to see Xia Chenghe.
Xia Chenghe looked at his daughter and said, "No, the carriage was bought with the silver of Eleven Niang, not the silver earned by Dad, and Dad will not let your grandma snatch it." ”
Ba Niang was overjoyed, "Dad, you said this, you can't give it when grandma says you want it." ”
Xia Chenghe also smiled, "Don't give it, my father promises not to give it!" ”
Banniang smiled happily and hugged Xiao Twelve into the car.
Considering that it was cold in the car, Eleven Niang asked Yan Xia to put a small carbon stove in the car, leaving Huichun to take care of it at home, and Yuan Niang, Erniang, and Sanniang were also left at home.
Roche's words, "What are you going to do, your father and I can be eaten in addition to being scolded by them for a few words?" ”
Erniang and Sanniang are engaged, she doesn't want her daughter to go back and set rules for the old lady, don't even think about it! As for Yuan Niang, it was enough to be scolded by the old lady last time, she couldn't give the old lady another chance to abuse her daughter in the sludge!
Halfway through the carriage, I had a meeting with Uncle Li's ox cart, Uncle Li opened his mouth to call someone, but was pulled by Aunt Li, and Eleven Niang saw several women and daughters-in-law in the village who loved to make trouble on the ox cart, and also pressed the father and mother who wanted to open the curtain and greet Aunt Li and Uncle Li.
Two cars staggered by.
Eleven Niang could still hear the voices of the women and daughters-in-law on the ox cart from the half-open curtain of the cart, "Tut...... I don't know which lady is in such a good carriage......"
"If you marry your daughter to Old Man Qiao's house, maybe you can rub your daughter's blessing and sit down?" The person next to him answered, and chuckled.
The woman who spoke before snorted, "It's great to have silver, I'm my mother, it's hard to sell my daughter for a few taels of silver!" ”
"That's not a few taels, it's a few hundred taels!" The woman said mysteriously, "I heard that when I am pregnant with a child, I will give another few hundred taels, tsk...... Old Man Joe's family is really rich! ”
"Really? Can give so much silver......" Someone was moved, leaned over and muttered and began to speak.
Only one person frowned and pulled the people around him, "Why did I look at the person who lifted the curtain just now like Luo in the third room of the Xia family?" ”
The man sneered and pushed her away, "You think too much, there is a group of people in the old mansion who are following and mixing, and the third room of the Xia family still wants to buy a carriage?" Ox carts may not be able to afford ......"
The previous people were right when they thought about it, and they laughed and put aside their own thoughts, and talked to a group of three aunts and six mothers-in-law about Old Man Qiao throwing silver to marry his granddaughter-in-law.
Uncle Li and Aunt Li glanced at each other, breathing a sigh of relief and hanging their hearts at the same time.
Aunt Li whispered to Uncle Li, "Third sister-in-law, what's the matter with them coming back at this time?" ”
Uncle Li shook his head, "How do I know? Could it be ......" Uncle Li looked at the group of three aunts and six women behind him, lowered his voice even more, and said, "Is it related to Old Man Qiao's desire to marry Qiao Mai's daughter-in-law?" ”
Aunt Li's eyes widened, "Can't! Erniang and Sanniang are all engaged, Baniang and Eleventh Niang are still young, and it is even more impossible for Yuan Niang to ......" Speaking of this, Aunt Li took a sip, "The old lady wants to fight Yuan Niang's idea, and it depends on whether the third sister-in-law agrees!" ”
Uncle Li responded indiscriminately twice, slapped the old cow's buttocks twice, the old cow mooed a few times, and turned the ox cart a few times, and the three aunts and six women who were talking about the car were happily turned back one by one, ouching and screaming.
Aunt Li sneered and screwed Uncle Li.
……
The family had never swaggered in a carriage
The carriage swaggered through the city into the village, but got out of the car first and went straight to Uncle Li's Aunt Li's house, and Yan Xia drove the carriage around the back of the village and entered the gate of the Li family.
Li Shuwu, the second son of the Li family, was writing big characters in the house, and when he heard the movement, he ran out, and Li Shuwen, the eldest son of the Li family, followed and walked out, making a gesture first, "Uncle Xia, Uncle Xia." ”
Li Shuwu jumped over with a smile, "Uncle Xia is good, Uncle Xia is good." ”
Grandma Li and Xiao Huang welcomed a few people into the door with a smile, and Yan Xia took the gifts he had prepared earlier and followed the group into the house.
Grandma Li frowned when she saw something, seemed to be angry, and said with a bad face, "Take whatever you want when you come home, take it back!" ”
Xia Chenghe and Luo Shi hurriedly got up to accompany him, Luo Shi explained with a smile on the side, "It was brought back by Shi Niang who went to the capital, saying that it was a cheap thing, not worth a few dollars, and it was also for Aunt Li to be happy." ”
After that, he quietly glanced at Xiao Huang's family, Xiao Huang's family was smart, and immediately smiled and took the arm of the Li family's grandmother, "Mother, the third brother and third sister-in-law are a piece of kindness, besides, this is also a piece of filial piety of the younger generation, are you willing to refuse your granddaughter's filial piety to make them sad?" ”
"This ......" Grandma Li hesitated a little, looked up and saw the family's eyes looking at her, she was happy, and chuckled, "Cheng, I will accept your filial piety, next time you are not allowed to spend money so much, save more in your hand and keep it for your daughter as a dowry or you can support the elderly yourself!" ”
The last sentence was obviously said to Xia Chenghe and the Luo couple, and the two nodded with a smile.
What was given to the grandmother of the Li family was a wipe of the forehead, embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns, and the grandmother of the Li family liked it very much.
With Xiao Huang, the second aunt of the Li family, is a silver hairpin with a rich flower, the stamen is inlaid with small broken beads, which is very delicate and chic, and another pair of pearl earrings, Xiao Huang thanked him repeatedly.
The men all gave cloth and made clothes for them.
There is no big difference between the Li family's aunt and Xiao Huang's, but the pattern of the silver hairpin has changed.
The two brothers Li Shuwen and Li Shuwu were given two inkstones, and the two brothers were very happy.
After sitting at Li's house for half an hour, the family said goodbye and left the Li family with a New Year's gift for the old house.
After walking not far, Banniang pulled the corner of Luo's clothes, "Mother, I hid something in the kang cave, I want to go back and get it." ”
Roche was surprised, "What are you hiding?" ”
"The salary that Eleven Niang paid me." Banniang grinned, and glanced at Eleven Niang.
Roche was embarrassed, "But our house has been given ...... by your aunt."
Xia Chenghe spoke on the side, "Girl, when we have been to your grandfather's house, will my father take you back to get it?" ”
Banniang shook her head, "You go to the old mansion, I'll get it myself." The house was given to them, and the silver was earned by my hard work, and I was not willing to give it to them! ”
After speaking, he turned his head and ran in the direction of the small courtyard where he used to live.
Luo Shi shouted twice and didn't stop, and looked back at Xia Chenghe.
Xia Chenghe only hesitated slightly, then turned around with his things, Luo was surprised, Eleven Niang had already taken Xiao Twelve and took Luo's arm, "Mother, let's go over together, I'm afraid that Eighth Sister will suffer." ”
Luo's expression changed, he bent down to pick up Little Twelve, and quickly chased after him.
Eleven Niang followed, her eyes were biased in the direction of the old house, and the smile on the corner of her lips deepened.
Banniang ran fast, Xia Chenghe hugged something and shouted a few times but didn't stop Banniang, when several people arrived, Banniang was banging on the door and shouting, "The surname is Yang, this is my house, why don't you let me in?!" ”
Xia Hongxia and Yang Deshi in the courtyard were shocked, Xia Hongxia pushed Yang Deshi, "It's Banniang, go and see what's going on?" ”
Yang Deshi's pupils shrank slightly, and pushed Xia Hongxia back, "She's your niece, go and see!" ”
Both of them were a little stunned, and neither dared to move.
Banniang was even more shocking outside, "You occupy my house, I want to sue the village chief and Li Zheng ......"
Not far from the gate, several families heard the movement, secretly opened the door to see what was going on, and found Banniang, some frowned and some gloated, and the woman who had a good relationship with the Luo family came out to pull Banniang, "Why did you come back, this child?" Where's your mom and dad? ”
"My dad and mother are in the back, auntie, what's going on? The Yang family occupies my house and won't even let me in, why is no one in the village taking care of it? Banniang asked according to the lines she had said to Eleven Niang before.
The woman was stunned, "Didn't you say that your father and mother agreed to give them the house to live in?" ”
Banniang jumped to her feet, "How can you!" This house belongs to the village, why did my father and mother do this, and the village chief has to say the final say! How could they throw dirty water on my father and mother like this, and let our family stay in the village......"
The woman saw her anxious appearance, and understood a little in her heart, and pulled her to comfort, "Okay, it's useless for you to be angry here, it's right to go to Li Zheng and the village chief to say a few good words, for this matter, Li Zheng and the village chief are angry with you." ”
At the end of the words, it was the advice that lowered her voice, and Banniang nodded again and again, "Thank you, auntie, I went to get the silver and told my father and mother about it......"
At this time, the door suddenly opened, Xia Hongxia probed left and right, and several peeking people closed the door, the woman glanced at Xia Hongxia, pouted, and patted Banniang's hand, "Take your aunt to say hello to your mother, and your aunt will go back to cook first." ”
"Oh, thank you, auntie."
The woman waved her hand, turned home, and closed the door.
Xia Hongxia opened the door and came out of the yard, raising her hand to call, "Banniang, what are you talking nonsense here, this house was given to us by your grandmother, and your father and mother also nodded their heads......"
Banniang reached out and grabbed Xia Hongxia's wrist, and was about to speak, when an angry voice came from behind her.
"Her aunt, be careful to flash your tongue when you say big things! When did my family say that this house was for you to live in? Luo Shi hugged Xiao Twelve and walked out of breath, as soon as he heard Xia Hongxia's words, as soon as he didn't get angry, he opened his mouth and pushed Xia Hongxia's words back.
Pushed back.
Xia Chenghe also sank his face, his eyes were very good, and he naturally saw Xia Hongxia raising her hand to hit Banniang.
Xia Hongxia snorted, opened her mouth and was about to shout, but the afterglow suddenly swept to Eleven Niang who was walking behind Xia Chenghe, her face turned white in an instant, as if she was entangled in her hand by a fierce snake, she desperately shook off Banniang's clamps, ran back to the yard and closed the door.
Baniang raised her foot and kicked the door, "Open the door!" You open the door! This is my house, why don't you let me in......"
Xia Hongxia ran into the yard and pulled Yang to gain momentum, "What should I do?" What to do? Eleven Niang is also here! I said you can't live here, you can't live here, you don't listen......"
Yang Deshi's face changed greatly, and he slapped him, "When did you say this?" Weren't you happy when you moved in? ”
"You're still beating me?" Xia Hongxia covered her face, her eyes were scared and annoyed, she rushed over and was about to scratch Yang Deshi, but was pushed to the ground by Yang Deshi, "When are you still making trouble?" I really want to be swept away by them and have nowhere to live, don't you? ”
Xia Hongxia groaned in pain, and was about to stand up and reason with Yang Deshi, when she heard Yang Deshi's words, she couldn't help but be depressed, "Then what do you say?" Eleven Niang's girl is poisonous, she still resents us for selling her family, and we occupy her house again, she will definitely not give up! She reminded us, she reminded us of our ......"
"Soft ass!" Yang Deshi's body was stiff and couldn't move, but his mouth was unforgiving, he smacked Xia Hongxia hard, and scolded the two sons who came out of the house nervously, "Little rabbit, what do you see, don't go to the old mansion to report the news, call the old man and the old lady to come over!" ”
The two boys turned their heads to look at Xia Hongxia, Xia Hongxia looked at the horror in her son's eyes, hurriedly got up from the ground, didn't care about patting her buttocks, ran over and pulled a son with one hand, "Later, my mother opened the door, you don't care about anything, just run to your grandmother's house, remember?" ”
The older boy nodded, and the younger boy looked up, "Mother, what should you do with your father?" ”
Xia Hongxia shook her head, "Don't worry about your father, you go yours, your third uncle and third aunt won't ......" The third brother and third sister-in-law won't do anything to them, Eleven Niang will!
Thinking of that night when she was frozen and covered in ice, Xia Hongxia couldn't help but tremble, and rushed to the door with her son, "Remember my mother's words, don't come out when you go to your grandmother's house, and don't come out if your mother doesn't pick you up......."
"Mother......
Xia Hongxia held one hand on the door bolt, took a deep breath, and pulled the door open, outside the door, Banniang was about to kick with her foot raised, and when she saw her open the door, she was about to speak, but she heard Xia Hongxia shout, "Run!" ”
A boy who was the height of Ba Niang ran out and ran towards the old house without looking back.
The other hugged Banniang's leg and shouted at Xia Hongxia, "Mother, I hugged her, you run ...... quickly."
