Chapter 49: It's Hard to Hire People

The second aunt saw that the sisters-in-law didn't believe what she said, and she didn't plan to explain more. So he was busy boiling water and making some sugar water for them to drink.

The eldest aunt hurriedly grabbed her, "Don't get it!" We're not thirsty, it's hard to talk together, what are you busy with? ”

The eldest aunt continued: "You said that your niece and daughter-in-law are the girls from Liu's family next to us, why didn't I recognize them?" ”

"It's Liu Laishun's second daughter, and her family and Tian are on the edge of the big ditch south of our house. When I was at home, I saw Liu Laishun working in the field. ”

The eldest aunt suddenly realized, "Oh! If it was Liu Laishun's daughter, I should have seen it, she should know me, and she should know my Chunzhi! How can I see that she is polite, but she doesn't know us? ”

The second aunt shook her head, made up for a while, and said uncertainly: "I don't know, maybe she thinks that she married into my family from a rich family and let you acquaintances know, I'm sorry, right?" She hasn't even returned to her parents' house yet! ”

The second aunt said slowly: "Actually, she shouldn't have anything to go back to her parents' house, if it weren't for your mother's house, we might not know." No one on our side has heard of this, nor has any of us heard of it. ”

The second aunt sighed: "Hey! It's also her father and grandfather who don't want to leave my family for the time being, so let's wait for two years to let them lose their anger! ”

The second aunt felt a little embarrassed, approached her sister, and asked, "Then how is the house in front of her now?" ”

The eldest aunt also gossiped and looked at her sister.

"Hey! What else? If it's high, it's not low! So far, there has not been one. At that time, I disliked my nephew and daughter-in-law, and now I am looking for a girl, I have to look for it like my nephew and daughter-in-law. It's not me who blows, my niece and daughter-in-law really can't compare. As far as my nieces and my own two daughters are far behind. Some time ago, his family said sour things everywhere, saying that our family coaxed my nephew and daughter-in-law over, and we didn't hear anything else. ”

The eldest aunt smiled and asked, "Then is your niece and daughter-in-law angry?" ”

The second aunt laughed "ha": "Angry? Since she entered our house, she has been so busy that her feet do not get dusty, but you give her time to listen to the gossip and have time to be angry! ”

The eldest aunt sighed: "Hey! This is fate, it is the blessing of your family, and it is the blessing of Xiaohu. ”

The second aunt also received: "It's true, her boy who was a talented girl in the exam, and a girl who fell in love with a rich family, would earn a dead dowry at most, how could this niece and daughter-in-law of your family make her own money?!" Those two are blind, and it should be a blessing for Xiaohu. ”

The second aunt also sighed, "They all treat pearls as fish, but they make my family lucky." Don't you know, when we met at that time, Xiaohu asked her, can you dislike my family for being poor?! Do you know what she said? ”

Shuangshuang was curious and asked urgently, "What do you say?" ”

"She said!" Me! If you are afraid of anything, you are not afraid of poverty. What does that mean? It shows that people have the ability! Even the sixth grandfather of our Wang family said that when he saw this girl talking lightly about harmony, he felt that this was a capable and dependent person! ”

The eldest aunt and the second aunt are straight to their mouths!

The eldest aunt asked again: "Auntie, you just said that you are okay now, but what has become of you?" Tell me about it! I'll go back and talk to my parents so they can be at ease. ”

The second aunt was stunned for a while, 'What should I do?' To say or not to say? In the end, he made up his mind: "Sister-in-law, we don't have to worry about food and clothing now." I didn't mention it to my niece and daughter-in-law when I borrowed your money. Therefore, I am not prepared to pay you back this time. I'm sure I'll be able to pay you back by the end of this year. ”

The eldest aunt was so angry that her face turned red, "What do you mean by that?" I ask you if you can get by, is it to ask for money? Didn't you say it a long time ago, if you have it, you can give it if you don't! Why do you still think about that? ”

The second aunt hurriedly waved her hand: "No! Sister-in-law, don't be angry, you listen to me. My child and my mother both borrowed money from my mother's family, and we both wanted to repay the money ourselves, so it was not counted in the family's arrears. These few times the money was earned back by my niece and daughter-in-law, and we didn't even open our mouths.

Fortunately, my niece and daughter-in-law said that when Ye Zi got married, there would not be so many chores to be busy, so let us make sweaters, and she would take them to the provincial capital to sell. Then the three of us women divided. not to the account of the family. I guess it won't be long before I can pay you back! I've wanted to tell you for a long time, not because you asked me. ”

The eldest aunt was also a little embarrassed, "Auntie, don't blame me, I'm just short-tempered." We are relieved to hear that you can get over as much as possible. Ye Zi, this girl, only replied after asking ten sentences, and she couldn't ask anything, which made people anxious, so she asked you more. ”

"Hmmm! That's all there is to my leaves! Not much mouth, more tongue. Xiaohu's daughter-in-law said that the leaves are stable, and the future will not be bad. ”

The second aunt also praised the leaves, "The leaves are good, what to eat and drink in my house, never make a fuss (this word is misused locally, to the effect that the main family is neglected, despised and looked down on and resentful, and does not rule out the suspicion of finding fault with the main family), just like my own children." Her second uncle praised her more than once. ”

The eldest aunt praised her sister: "Auntie, the children in your family are all good." This is what you have taught. Children are all learning the same, and if adults don't do well, children are not much better. ”

The second aunt smiled happily.

The eldest aunt and the second aunt followed my sister to see the livestock raised in the two yards, and couldn't stop praising them: "Auntie, this day is really good, there are cows, sheep and pigs, and yellow wolves, and so many chickens in the house." Your family really doesn't have to worry about this day. ”

The second aunt's smiling eyes narrowed into a line, "It will be better!" That's not all! ”

“”

I had dinner early in the evening and sent off the second aunt's family.

Erya stood outside the door and asked the second aunt: "Why didn't Ye Zi come back together?" I also want to teach her how to make a sweater, so that she can wear the skirt on her wedding day by herself! ”

The second aunt was a little surprised: "Ah! Can't I fight? Her grandfather had no one to take care of, so she stayed at her grandmother's house. If it doesn't work, I'll let her go and call her back?! ”

"Yes, yes! I'm afraid it's too late. I'm going to put a blouse on her, at least half a month, and the skirt is longer. Or do you fight with the eldest uncle? Divided into eight pieces, four red and four black, does this wedding dress say? ”

The second aunt shook her head, and it took a long time to reply: "I don't know either!" Why don't you ask your aunt! ”

Erya shook her head helplessly.

Back in the kitchen, the second aunt couldn't wait to ask her sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law!" The wedding dress is red and black, okay? ”

The eldest aunt's hand washing the dishes did not stop, raised her head and replied: "Okay! As long as there is red, the phoenix clothes specially made by the big families are not lined with red jokes, embroidered with pictures of various colors. ”

"That's great, my niece and daughter-in-law said to weave a wedding dress for the leaves with wool. I was afraid that it would be too late, so I thought that the two of us would knit skirts, and she would knit blouses. ”

After the eldest aunt washed her hair, she was ready to pack a bowl of straw ash and take it with her, and go to the pond to clean it. The second aunt hurriedly carried the basket containing the bowl and followed her over to clean it together.

The eldest aunt wiped the bowl inside and out with straw ash to see that there was no grease, and then handed the bowl to her brother and daughter-in-law and asked her to wash it in water. While asking his brother and daughter-in-law: "Did your nephew and daughter-in-law say how to weave?" ”

She said that she would divide it into eight pieces, weave it, and sew it side by side. She also had to go to the coppersmith to get some buckle, saying that it was to be attached to the belt of her skirt. ”

The second aunt said, and sighed again: "Sister-in-law! Don't you know, just listening to my niece and daughter-in-law, I think that dress must be different. I've never heard of it! ”

The eldest aunt laughed and teased her brother-in-law: "What's wrong! Do you want to be able to get one? That's what the girls wear, but don't forget, we're all going to be old women. ”

"Oops! Sister-in-law, you are so cruel, my heart is broken! The second aunt was full of bitterness and learned the tone of the second girl when she said this!

"Hahaha!"

The eldest aunt, second aunt, and second aunt were busy weaving the clothes that Ye Zi would wear when she got married, and they were busy cooking three meals a day.

The eldest uncle and the second uncle have to take care of the livestock in the yard, the chickens have all come out of the shell, the female yellow wolf has divided the nest (the yellow wolf in the nest indicates that she has been pregnant with the little yellow wolf), the two wild boars are eating more and more, there are five sheep, and cattle, and the lacquer maker wants to send tea and water, fortunately, there are many children, and they can help make some.

On the twelfth day of the first month, the eldest uncle's maiden family came, and the three of them were delayed for a day.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the second aunt and several married daughters returned to their parents' homes.

After lunch, the eldest uncle told the second sister, daughter and son-in-law, and niece and nephew that Tian had already bought it, and told them what he had discussed with the second child before. Each of them said that they listened to the arrangement of their elders.

After dinner, the second aunt was in a hurry to go back, and Hongxia, Hongyun, and Hongxiu were all left behind by Erya.

"Three sisters, if you don't go back, stay here. Follow us to learn knitting, and after learning it, we will also make money. ”

The eldest sister Hongxia was very embarrassed, "Brother and sister, it's not that I don't want to make money, it's just that I've split up and lived separately, I have to take care of the family, the children and your brother-in-law, I really can't get out!" ”

Hongyun lowered his head and thought for a long time, and asked Erya: "Brother and sister, I want to follow you, but can you wait for me to divide the family and come over?" My mother-in-law said that after the first month, the family will be separated. Now that I have land, I don't care if they give me the property or not, I just hope they will divide it quickly! I'm afraid that if they hear the news that my mother's family gave the field, it shouldn't be divided! ”

Erya nodded, "Okay!" It's not a rush anyway. ”

Hongxiu said with a red face: "I want to stay in my mother's house and be free." I'm afraid that my mother-in-law won't let me, and she's watching it tightly! I bent down to pick up something, but she was afraid that I would stretch my waist and hurt the child. ”

Erya shook her head and said helplessly: "Then so be it!" Wait for you to learn from me when you want to do it! ”
