Chapter 58 58 nodded
The blacksmith nodded, but his face was hesitant, and he wanted to say something, but the girl said Uncle, now this is all her own family, if you have anything to ask, just ask.
My cousin immediately said, yes, uncle, if you want to ask anything, you can ask me directly.
The blacksmith said that since you all have a child, I don't know if your mother has ever been to see this child, and when he talked about it, the smile on his cousin's face also dimmed, and he lowered his head and said, and then went to see it a few times and gave us a few taels of silver.
said that he was going to give the child a meeting gift, and let us quietly, absolutely not let my sister know, he knew today that I was going to give a gift to your uncle, so he quietly lent me the family car, so that I could go home early.
Is there anything your mother would like to say to me?
The blacksmith asked anxiously, as if realizing that his attitude was a little wrong, and he glanced at the girl.
The last time your sister gave birth, I scolded him a few words, and my cousin said, uncle, you just have to rest assured, since I came back from the pharmacy, my mother has not always complained about others like before, so didn't your mother say anything about me?
The blacksmith still doesn't seem to give up.
My cousin thought for a while and said very seriously, he didn't mention it at all, including me coming to give you a gift this time, he obviously knew that I was coming to my uncle's house, but he didn't say a word.
After leading me out of the carriage, he turned around and went back, which made me wonder what he was thinking.
The blacksmith also said that he didn't understand very much, but the girl laughed quietly, it is estimated that the aunt already knew how excessive the things she had done before.
I want to repair the relationship with the blacksmith, but I am inevitably worried that the blacksmith will not forgive him at all, and if this is the case, then there is no face at all.
Since they have reached such a point, and they still want to take care of their own face, and they are worried that the blacksmith will not forgive themselves at all, needless to say anything else, just for him, the aunt is not sincerely repentant, and the blacksmith there and the cousin asked about their current situation, and the cousin said, I didn't go back to their yard at all, if I had seen it a few times when I walked around the village.
Didn't you speak?
The blacksmith immediately looked at his cousin.
My cousin said.
I want to say hello to them.
But my sister has been pretending not to know me at all, and of course I will not take the initiative to please her, since you don't have my brother in your heart, after seeing me, it is like seeing a plague god and turning around and running, then of course I don't recognize you.
My cousin said.
The blacksmith could only sigh deeply, I don't know how the child is now, my cousin shook his head, I don't know what happened, it was my mother who sent the child away, but it was sent to a family far away, because I didn't know exactly what was going on with that family, so I didn't go to see it, my cousin said honestly.
Hearing this, the girl couldn't help but take over, I think that if you can't really give the child a warm home, then it's best not to disturb her, maybe that family doesn't have a son who has been looking forward to it, the cousin and the blacksmith all agreed with the girl's words, if you really take the child back, then who should take care of her?
As a biological mother, she actually wants to kill her child, so if you look at it like this, I think it's better for the child to stay in that family, it stands to reason that my cousin has already arrived in this filial piety period, he should have been thinking about how to return to the palace, talking about this cousin sneered, I'm afraid he has always had such a thought in his heart, he has always wanted to go back to the palace, but now he has no money to go on the road, he and his mother have been eating and drinking at home for the past few years, and they don't pay attention to anything, so the little money on hand has long been left, and as far as I know, The coachman she brought out from the palace was not driven away by her cousin at all, but because the person took a sum of money and quietly ran away by himself, he didn't dare to say anything on the surface, and of course his mother didn't dare to say it, because my daughter-in-law gave birth to a child recently, so my mother came to see us talk about it, and my mother just said it.
I really didn't expect that there would be such a person in this world, it is really too angry, the blacksmith said angrily, and the girl said, I don't think so, I wonder if this is the coachman because he knew about his cousin's child, so he used this matter as a threat to dangerous cousin.
So that my cousin would give her a sum of money and let her leave directly, and my cousin said, I don't know what is going on, anyway, I haven't seen the coachman for a long time, and the matter about my cousin is here for the time being, and my aunt has already returned from the vegetable garden with a basket.
The girl immediately stood up and said to the blacksmith and her cousin, "You can talk here now, I'm going to cook in the kitchen, and my aunt is discussing with the girl in the kitchen, what kind of dishes should I cook at noon."
All the vegetables are here, but I don't know what meat dishes to make, my aunt asked the girl.
The girl glanced at these things in the kitchen, and thought that the dishes were enough, but the main problem was that there was only the meat that my cousin just brought over at home, girl, I'm going to kill a **, do you think it's good?
Well, the girl thought for a while and said, I think if you kill the chicken now, it's a bit of a waste of time, it's better like this, aunt, you make these meats, and then I'll catch two more fish, and make meat and fish at noon today, this amount is enough for everyone to eat, and when the time comes, catch a fat chicken and let my cousin take it home when he leaves, let them decide what they want, aunt, do you say that's good?
Aunt immediately nodded, your idea is very good, then do what you say, I'll cut the meat first, the girl said, then I'll go catch fish.
She went directly to the pond and caught a very heavy fish, and then caught some small fish, returned to the blacksmith's house and began to get busy, set up the table, and called the lady and the child over, everyone had eaten kindly, uncle, I have already eaten, and now I should go home, and now only Xiaohua is left alone at home with the children, I am very uneasy.
After eating, my cousin wanted to say goodbye and go home, and the blacksmith wanted to keep her here for a while, but because he considered that there were children at home, the blacksmith said that it was okay, and he called out to his aunt as he spoke, and said that now that the children are going home, are the things ready?
I'll be here soon, my aunt ran in while talking, holding a big fat chicken that had been tied up in her hand, and a big bag in her hand, which contained a lot of things, and then said to my cousin, there are no good things at home, this is the new rice that has just been ground this year, your uncle grinds it himself, it is very clean, you take these things home and cook a little porridge for the child, but it is very nourishing, let Xiaohua eat more, my cousin kept waving his hand and said, how can this be?
The last time Xiao Hua gave birth to a child, your uncle and aunt had already taken a lot of gifts, and there were still a lot of left.
The blacksmith said.
This is the last time, this time you take it back, the blacksmith said while putting the bag in the hands of his cousin, the child is still young, Xiaohua has to stay at home to take care of the child, you can't go out to work anymore, you can only do a little odd job at home during this time, there must be no income, you take this rice back, if there is not enough to eat, you can come here to get it again.
When the child is a little older, you can go out and do things, and I won't give you any more things at that time, take these things today and go home, don't waste any more time, the blacksmith said as he pushed his cousin outside, and my cousin had no choice, so he glanced at the full things in his hand.
I didn't know what to say if I was already moved, the girl also came over with a baggage, cousin, I took some clothes that I wore before, you must not dislike it, take them back to the child, if it rains all the time, I'm afraid the child's clothes are not enough to change and wash, these can also be dealt with.
Seeing the burden in the girl's hand, my cousin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately put down the things in his hand, took the burden and said, my brother and sister said something from the heart, in fact, your cousin-in-law told me earlier before I came, and asked me if I could ask you for a little old clothes, because the clothes at home are indeed not enough, and when it rained two days ago, these clothes could not be dried after washing.
After sending her cousin away, the girl returned to the kitchen, helping her aunt collect things, and the blacksmith also walked in, girl, you can give your cousin all the clothes that the child wore before, this is a better gift for them than anything else, the blacksmith said while his face was full of gratitude, and the girl looked at the blacksmith and smiled.
Uncle now these things are useless, even if I stay, I can only be a souvenir, but for my cousin, they are equivalent to sending charcoal in the snow, to help them, I am also very happy, the blacksmith keeps nodding, girl, our family will have a good life now because of a daughter-in-law like you, this is really not sure how much virtue has been accumulated, hearing the blacksmith's evaluation, the girl suddenly felt very embarrassed, girl, you gave these clothes to your cousin, but if you are giving birth in the future, do you still have it?
mentioned this matter, the girl's face turned red, aunt, now I and the boy have no plans for me to have a child, so I can only wait a little longer, in fact, his heart has always been thinking about Xing'er, this is also a knot that cannot be opened, if she can't find this child for a day, she doesn't want to have another child now, the blacksmith glanced at the girl, and knew what he had in his heart.
So he said to his aunt, "Do you just know that you are worrying about it there, and when the time comes, they can make new clothes if they want the child?"
Don't always think about the past things can't get by, people still have to look forward, the road ahead is still long, everything will slowly get better, although it sounds like reprimanding the aunt, in fact, these words are all said to the girl, the girl is not stupid, how can you not know the meaning of the blacksmith, okay, let's not talk about these anymore, he raised his head while laughing, the uncle doesn't know what his cousin is doing now to make money, the blacksmith said, before your cousin didn't give birth to a child, he went to the county to sell coolies, is this what my third brother did before?
The blacksmith nodded, it was indeed that thing, he did it for a few months, and he earned a few taels of silver, and then because your cousin-in-law gave birth to a child, no one around him could take care of him, so he returned home, some time ago because of the busy farming, so he helped the people in the village to harvest the crops, so that he could also earn a little money, and he could take care of the child, there should be nothing to do during this period of time, if there is anyone who needs to recruit short-term workers, he can only do a little odd job.
He said that he still has a little money in his hand to support the Chinese New Year, and then I told him not to rush to do things during this period of time, just need to stay at home and take care of the children and Xiaohua, and then find a way to find something to do after the New Year.
The girl nodded, if they have no one to help take care of the child, then the cousin really has no time now, and after the New Year, the child may be better when he grows up, and then the cousin can also find something to do by himself, the cousin is from the palace, although other things are not necessarily, but these needlework must be taught by someone, so wait until after the festival, if the uncle can go to the cousin if you have time, you can ask the cousin, see if she can do a little needlework alone now。
The girl said, because Tao'er has always taken Xiaoqian and Xiaocao and a few of them to do these things for the restaurant.
Of course, the blacksmith understands, and many women in the village also want to do it, but these things do not mean that you can do them, this is a very high demand, I used to look at the shoes made by my cousin-in-law for Xiaoxiao, the embroiderer should be quite good, if he can, he can let a few of them come here, this period of time only rely on these needlework to earn money, absolutely no less than my cousin to do odd jobs for others.
