Chapter 388: Strife
I heard that Lin was sick, and Yan Wanxiu was also a little bad, so Li Luan'er took the time to take a look, she and Yan Wanxiu made an appointment to go to Lin's house, but saw that Lin's face was really ugly, and it looked really sick.
Seeing Li Luan'er and Yan Wanxiu, Lin's face was even worse: "You are all here to laugh at me." ”
Yan Wanxiu stood not far from Lin's bed and did not go further: "Madam, I am your daughter, but I am also the daughter of the master, and the granddaughter of my grandfather, I can't just care about you and ignore their life and death, although I am not good for you, but if I do it again, I will still do this, I know that my wife will not be able to forgive me, and I don't ask my wife how to do it, I can only do more filial piety in the future." ”
Li Luan'er also blessed slightly: "Where did Mrs. say, one of us is your daughter-in-law, and the other is your daughter, why do you joke about it, Mrs. is probably too sick, and she is a little confused." ”
Lin gasped angrily: "I don't need your filial piety, get out of here." ”
Before her words fell, she saw Shi Lan coming in in a concubine-colored dress, her face was heavy, and her voice was hoarse when she spoke, and she was even more frightened: "Madam, there are locust plagues in many places near the capital, and there is no food in the fields, but there are no weeds. ”
"Locusts, locust plagues......"
Everyone, including the Lin family, was full of fear and shock, and the Lin family was even more shocked, and their bodies began to tremble: "How can there be a locust plague." ”
However, Li Luan'er was surprised for a while, and then turned calm, she had discussed with Yan Chengyue, and the two of them saw that the weather was so dry, so they had already guessed that there would be no locust plague, and when the locust plague really came, she was not surprised.
"This year's drought is like this, and locust plagues are inevitable." Li Luan'er said softly: "I'm afraid that in addition to the locust plague, there will be no plague." ”
The Lin family was shocked for a while, Shi Lan and Yan Wanxiu were young, they didn't know how scary the locust plague and plague were, although their faces were not good-looking, but they were much stronger than the Lin family, and the Lin family had a lot of things to do with their old age, and they still remembered that she had also experienced the locust plague and the plague, that kind of scene...... It was when she was young, but she was unforgettable.
"No, not really." Lin's lips trembled: "This ...... But how can people live? ”
She couldn't sit still anymore, she got out of bed and stood barefoot on the ground and looked out: "A locust plague has passed, I don't know how many years it will take to recover, and I can't say that next year's grain harvest will not work, our family ...... If there is really a plague, I can't say that we have to close the house to thank the guests, Wanxiu, you and your second sister-in-law have a good discussion, while others haven't thought of it now, hurry up and prepare some things at home, in addition to food, all kinds of spices, clothes, and medicinal materials must be prepared, by the way, black stones and firewood must also be prepared, in case the house is really closed for a period of time, we have to get through. ”
"Yes!" Yan Wanxiu agreed, but there was still no movement when she stood in the local area.
Yan Wanxiu is the daughter of the Lin family, and some things are not easy to say, but Li Luan'er can say whatever she wants, she smiled: "Mrs., you should really thank Sister Wanxiu, if it weren't for Sister Wanxiu's righteousness, she couldn't say that the family would have to lend a lot of food, if this is the case, our family will be sad in the future." ”
Li Luan'er's words taught Lin's face to swell and red, and he twisted his head to the side with a snort: "Thank her for what she did, she is the meat that fell off my body, she has to do what I call her, where is the mother who thanked her own girl." ”
"But so." Li Luan'er laughed again: "After all, you are Wanxiu's mother, no matter what happens, it's your good, it's Wanxiu's sister's fault, if Wanxiu's sister listens to your words and sends the food out, you can't complain that she is too bold at this time, and she will send the food quietly, Wanxiu sister didn't listen to you, you have to say that she is not filial, this is a child, after all, it is not good in front of her parents." ”
Lin's face was even worse, and she coughed lightly in embarrassment: "Ouch, I have a tight headache, you guys should retreat first, and tell me to be quiet for a while." ”
Li Luan'er tugged on Yan Wanxiu's sleeve: "If your wife is not well, she should rest more, you rest first, and we will go to ask you for a doctor." ”
As soon as she went out, Yan Wanxiu thanked Li Luan'er, Li Luan'er took her hand and smiled: "Thank you, I'm your sister-in-law, can I not look at you, after all, I'm a person who doesn't have much heart and the most straightforward temperament, I can't hold anything in my heart, I can say whatever I want, your brother said before that I always don't have a long heart, I don't know how many people I have offended, I also want to speak better, but my temper is natural, where can I change it." ”
Yan Wanxiu also smiled: "Sister-in-law's temper is good, and she is always in harmony with me." ”
Shi Lan stood behind and watched Yan Wanxiu and Li Luan'er's aunt and sister-in-law make love, and she was a little unhappy in her heart, and sneered and tugged at Shi Lan's clothes: "Sister, Mrs. asked us to buy medicinal herbs and clothes with silver, let's prepare earlier." ”
Li Luan'er lowered her head and hooked her lips and smiled: "Lan Yatou and Wanxiu don't have to accompany me, you can do it yourself, I will go back to ask grandpa for peace." ”
Shi Lan was a little dissatisfied with Li Luan'er calling her a blue girl, but who called Li Luan'er the eldest sister-in-law, she couldn't make a noise, she could only hold back, pull Yan Wanxiu and hurriedly say goodbye and leave.
Li Luan'er waited for Shi Lan and Yan Wanxiu to go to General Yan, she brought some medicine when she came, which was intended for General Yan, and when she went in without waiting to speak, General Yan smiled first and asked her to come closer, and looked at her for a long time before asking, "Is your body good?" If you want to eat or use, just tell grandpa, and grandpa will get it with you. ”
"Yes." Li Luan'er agreed with a smile: "I'm much better now, I can eat some of everything, grandpa doesn't have to worry about it." ”
General Yan nodded happily: "I am really relieved that you and Chengyue are good, your mother-in-law is an uneasy one, in the future, these days are getting more and more difficult, you can raise the baby at home with peace of mind, if you don't have to, you don't have to always run over to say goodbye, I have someone to accompany the old man, I am not lonely." ”
"My wife just complained to me a few times, and she didn't do anything to me." Li Luan'er smiled and argued a few words for the Lin family.
General Yan snorted: "When I am old and useless, I don't know what is going on in this family, I know what your mother-in-law looks like, it is you who have the ability to lower her, she doesn't dare to do anything, if you change to a useless one, maybe she will be bullied into something, why do you and I like you to be Chengyue's daughter-in-law, is to see that you are shrewd, refreshing and capable, and can cure the foolish things of the Lin family." ”
General Yan can say that the Lin family is not, but Li Luan'er, as a junior, can't say any gossip, she can only listen with a smile and no response.
"In a few days, I will ask someone to build a Buddhist hall at home, and ask your mother-in-law to go in and recite the manager of the Buddha, so as to cure her temperament." Old General Yan pointed to the seat next to him and asked Li Luan'er to sit down: "While my old bones can still move, you have to think of a way to turn her temperament over, otherwise, you will have to follow her to endure hardships." ”
"Mrs. is an elder, so we have to respect everything." Li Luan'er responded with a smile: "I brought some medicinal herbs, I still leave it to you after thinking about it." ”
"I also have medicinal herbs at home." When General Yan heard that Li Luan'er had brought medicinal materials, his face was full of relief: "In the future, you can only store the medicinal materials, and you don't have to worry about your family." ”
"This is not an ordinary medicine, it is a medicine for heat stroke made by my wife, and some pills for anti-plague, I thought that I was afraid that I could use it at home, so I sent it." Li Luan'er smiled and took a sip of water: "Grandpa will take it first, you have the final say on which one to use and how to use it." ”
After talking for a while, Li Luan'er got up to say goodbye, she went out of the door of the old house, got into her own carriage, and asked Yan Yi to drive the carriage home, Yan Yi responded, shouted and drove the car away, and after walking not much, Li Luan'er heard a commotion, she opened the curtain and looked, but smiled, it turned out that the car was almost to General Street.
And the noise came from a group of pedestrians who were walking towards General Street, Li Luan'er took a closer look, and felt even more funny, this team of people she was also familiar with, it turned out to be Gu Da Niang's mother's family, Gu Cheng's family.
The one who walked first, sitting on a tall horse and dressed in red, was Gu Chengcai's newlywed wife Ma Ting, who had recently married home, who was tied to a rope and ran behind the horse, with a pale and crumbling face It was Aunt Fu who was crying and crying behind Aunt Fu and looking uncomfortable.
The curtain on the carriage behind was lifted, and Gu Cheng and Gu Ying were tied up with five flowers on it.
Gu Cheng's face was extremely ugly, but he was able to keep his mouth shut, but Gu Ying shouted as he walked: "What are you doing, do you abuse the concubine like this and treat the concubine and the concubine like this, Ma, you are not worthy of being my mother-in-law, you are really vicious......"
"Brother Ying, don't shout."
Gu Erniang saw that she couldn't keep up with the team, followed a few steps, and spoke loudly in a gentle and firm voice: "No matter how bad she is, she is our mother-in-law, we have to respect, and there can be no dissatisfaction, although she scolded us, and didn't ask you to go to school, she didn't even ask you to read books, she found so many Buddhist scriptures for you to copy, and gave me countless embroidery jobs to do, but, who called her an elder, she was our mother-in-law one day, we have to honor her, what will happen to us in the future is a matter of the future, no matter how bad it is, there can be no complaints." , who told us to live hard. ”
There are many people on both sides of the street, who pointed their fingers, listened to Gu Erniang's words, and all of them had 120,000 sympathy for Gu Erniang and Gu Ying, plus Ma Ting's reputation was not good, as soon as something happened, people first felt that she was at fault, where would they delve into the truth of the matter.
Many people on the side of the road whispered, all talking about Gu Cheng's bad fate, marrying a tigress into the house, but first stirring up the restlessness of the house, and even the hero only said that if he married a lady like Ma, he would have to give her a horse first, so that she knew that she knew that she was powerful, and she must twist her temperament over and teach her virtuous and gentle.
There is also the person who laughed loudly and said amplified words is too capable, as far as Ma's martial arts are concerned, there are a few men who can be cured, don't stop it, but let Ma beat him half-dead is true.
Ma was followed by a heroic girl dressed in green, the girl held a short knife in the back and rode on the horse to protect Ma Ting, at this time, when I heard that the people on the street obviously believed Gu Erniang's words, and pushed them all to Ma's body, the girl was angry, Ma was a tall character, not rare to argue with others, but this girl had to say a few words for her master.
She glared angrily, and spat at Gu Erniang: "Shut your dog's mouth, what are you, you can also calculate our girl." ”
Gu Erniang's eyes flashed with tears, and Ai Ai said: "Who called me a concubine, even a girl can scold me, hey, my father is a weak scholar, and he deserves to be bullied by his family." ”
The girl sneered: "It's bullying, just the poor bastard of the Gu family, the flowers used for food are all our lady's, and there is a face to say that our lady bullies people, do you have a silver to smash and bully people, if this is the case, I would rather be bullied." ”
When the girl said this, many people burst into laughter, and some people shouted: "We are also willing to be bullied by Yinzi." ”
Gu Erniang's tears crackled and fell: "Our family has always lived like this, and we are living in poverty...... Dad once taught us that wealth cannot be yin, and mightiness cannot be bent......"
"Yes." The girl sneered: "Lord Gu first called Weiwu to give in." ”
Speaking of this, she didn't wait for Gu Erniang to speak, and said loudly: "Our eldest lady is kind-hearted, just those Gu family members have encountered such a disaster year, and they should have been cut off, if it weren't for our family's lady to support it, you would have drunk the northwest wind a long time ago, and you still have the strength to be crooked here?" Now our lady can't hold on, in order for the family to survive, I have to take you to my mother's house, you are good, but because of the reputation of our uncle, I dare not go, I can only ask our lady to be tied up and dragged away, speaking of which, if our lady has a little bad intention, she will directly drag Master Gu to go, why bother with your life or death. ”R1152
