Chapter Seventy-Four: Kindness
"What a good daughter-in-law you married!" Mrs. Liu didn't scold Mrs. Liusan, but only pointed at Mr. Liu San and scolded, "You touch your conscience and think about it, when did you stop beating her when she entered the door." In front of me, there is no general face-saving. What is the purpose of separating our mother and son from Beijing? What do you say for your future, if you are in Beijing, be your official well, I am afraid it will not be worse than now! It's just to stay away from me, she is at ease and enjoys the blessings! ”
"How could I have had a little filial piety! You are also an uncompetitive person, just let her handle it, and she will decide everything big and small. Do you still have me in your eyes, who else can you have in your eyes! One day, if you are angry with me, you will be quiet, and you don't have to avoid me and disgust me! ”
The more Mrs. Liu scolded, the more sad she became, she felt sorry for Master Liu San, and what she scolded was Master Liu San, and it was Mrs. Liu San who was scolded.
Mrs. Liu San didn't speak at this time, just hugged Liu Yuhuai, and both of them were wiping their tears.
Master Liu San was busy kneeling down in front of Mrs. Liu and kowtowing to Mrs. Liu.
"Mother, it's all because the son is not good, and the son is not filial. You always want to scold, scold, and if you don't get angry, hit your son a few times. I just ask your old man not to be angry, he is angry with his body, and his son can't afford it. Master Liu San begged Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu felt sorry for Mr. Liu, and was angry that he favored Mrs. Liu, and Mr. Liu said this, Mrs. Liu was willing to beat him wherever she was, so she also cried.
"All the injustices are my injustices."
"Mother, mother......" Master Liu San called one after another.
Master Liu, Mrs. Liu, Second Master Liu, Second Mrs. Liu and others were all busy stepping forward to convince them.
"You said you were filial to me. If you still have me in your eyes. Let me ask you, would you like to pass Shiro to your second brother? Mrs. Liu was persuaded by everyone for a while. wiped away his tears, only stared at Master Liu San and asked. But he didn't glance at Mrs. Liusan.
Liu Ruoxi saw it on the side, and thought in her heart that these days, Mrs. Liu San has done everything to please Mrs. Liu in front of Mrs. Liu, and it will be all offset so far. And with Mrs. Liu's spicy and methodic, she has never been Mrs. Liu's opponent, and it is not without reason. Mrs. Liu understands Mrs. Liu's temper very thoroughly. In terms of self-control, Mrs. Liu San is too much worse than Mrs. Liu. Mrs. Liu has been in charge of the housework of the Liu family for so many years, and she has been so flat up and down. There really are some means.
Mrs. Liu asked directly about Master Liu San's head again, and it depends on how Master Liu San answers, between his mother and daughter-in-law, Master Liu San can no longer have both, so he can only choose one side.
Master Liu San's forehead was sweating.
"Mother, mother......" Master Liu San only called Mrs. Liu, but other words seemed to be held in his mouth and could not be said.
"You...... You ......" Mrs. Liu almost rolled her eyes in anger. If the daughters-in-law are jealous and can't tolerate the men's small size, it is Mrs. Liu's disgust. So what Mrs. Liu hated the most was that her sons had soft ears and were afraid of their wives.
This kind of performance of Master Liu San is in the eyes of Mrs. Liu. It is undoubtedly that Master Liu San was controlled by Mrs. Liu San, and he was afraid of Mrs. Liu San's performance.
Everyone watched Mrs. Liu's face change, and they all knew that it was not good.
Master Liu San glanced at Mrs. Liu San. Mrs. Liu San was also a little frightened at this time, but she saw the gaze of Master Liu San. But he didn't dodge at all. Mrs. Liu San hugged Liu Yuhuai tightly again, and looked at Master Liu San with fixed eyes.
Mrs. Liu San is telling Master Liu San. She would never give up her son.
Master Liu San knew Mrs. Liu's temperament very well, and there was really nothing to do at the moment, so he had to raise his eyes and ask for help from Second Master Liu.
"Old lady, don't worry," Second Master Liu sighed secretly, and hurriedly said to Old Lady Liu, "I can discuss this matter with my third brother again, and I will definitely give the old lady a satisfactory reply." The third brother is also filial to the old lady in his heart, but there are still some small things. …… It is also a good thing to slow down a little bit of the heir's major event. ”
"Yes, old lady," Mrs. Liu also said, "The third lady is straighter and anxious, I'm afraid there will be some small misunderstandings, and I'll wait for my daughter-in-law to talk to her again." ”
Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu persuaded like this, but it attracted most of Mrs. Liu's anger.
"You're not in a hurry, I'm the only one in a hurry! I've your heart for half a lifetime! Mrs. Liu said.
Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu also knelt down busily.
"Old lady," Liu Ruoxi hurriedly stepped forward, helping Mrs. Liu to ease her breath and persuade at the same time, "The old lady can tolerate some work, and it is indeed not at this moment." My father said that this will be done this year, so that the old lady can rest assured. ”
Everyone's persuasion, Mrs. Liu didn't listen, only Liu Ruoxi's words attracted Mrs. Liu's attention.
"This year?"
"Yes, even this year, it will be done." Second Master Liu said.
When Mrs. Liu heard this, her anger calmed down. The reason why she was so angry and anxious was also because of her sudden disappointment. And Liu Ruoxi gave a one-year deadline, which was equivalent to giving Mrs. Liu another hope, so she was able to successfully ease Mrs. Liu's emotions.
"The old lady also said just now that the most important thing is to have a harmonious family. Like this, you know, say that the old lady is teaching her children and grandchildren. If there is anyone who doesn't know, saying that it was caused by my father's step-son, who knows if it will be said that our Liu family brothers are not in harmony and the family is not harmonious? Compared to family harmony, whether or not I can pass Jishiro is my father's own business, but it's a trivial matter. Liu Ruoxi continued to persuade Mrs. Liu.
"Haven't the old lady heard such a sentence, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren. This thing, or just the chance, has not come. Take a step back and open the sky, a little slowly, maybe everyone can be happy. My father also had an heir, and the whole family was harmonious, and there was no longer any disagreement. ”
The latter words, Liu Ruoxi said a little meaningful. However, it will not be until one day in the future that Mrs. Liu will understand Liu Ruoxi's intentions at this moment.
"Old lady, don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha. Today is my father's birthday, so the old lady will give my father a little thin noodles. Everyone happily put everything else aside for now. Liu Ruoxi finally smiled and said, "Forget me begging the old lady, interceding with the old lady on behalf of my father." Can't the old lady bear not to agree? ”
Liu Ruoxi is right, today is the birthday of the second master Liu, and we must pay attention to auspiciousness and good omens. In addition, Mrs. Liu mentioned the matter of succession, and the performance of Second Master Liu did not violate Mrs. Liu in the slightest, it can be said that the performance of Second Master Liu, Second Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruoxi today is very satisfactory to Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu's anger was directed at Mrs. Liusan, and she was a little sad, and that was because of Mrs. Liusan.
There is really no reason for this to attack the second master of Liu. As soon as Liu Ruoxi pleaded like this, Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu echoed and said a few words, and Old Mrs. Liu couldn't help but give this feeling.
"That's it, that's it. Let's all watch you. ”
Mrs. Liu sighed and sat there, although she didn't cry or scold, she didn't say anything for a long time. Everyone stayed in front of Mrs. Liu's bed, and no one dared to speak.
After a while, Mrs. Liu raised her head and waved her hand at the big girl's peony.
Peony turned and went to the back room, and after a while she turned back, holding a brocade box in her hand.
“…… Your father used it when he was alive, so I'll give it to you. When Mrs. Liu opened the brocade box, she saw that there was a string of Canaan incense beads inlaid with the word "golden millet longevity", the color of the beads was smooth, and it was obvious that it was often held in the hand and often played.
Second Master Liu naturally recognized that this was still his great-grandfather, and the reward that Old Lady Liu's grandfather received back then was invaluable and passed on to Old Lady Liu. Old lady Liu cherished it very much when she was alive. After Mrs. Liu passed away, Mrs. Liu kept this string of incense beads, and she often saw things and thought about people.
Second Master Liu was slightly shocked, but he didn't dare to accept it.
"My father used it, but the old lady kept it. The old lady's compassion is understood by her son. Second Master Liu said busily.
"Your father also said before he was alive that this string of beads will be given to you. I was going to keep it until you had an heir. …… That's it, I'll give it to you now. It didn't work for me to keep it. Mrs. Liu said, the feelings implied in her tone were quite complicated.
"Three girls, you can put it away for your father." Mrs. Liu seemed to be a little tired, so she said to Liu Ruoxi.
Liu Ruoxi had heard the second master Liu say that the string of Canaan incense beads at home was a good thing, and it was the second master Liu's favorite in his heart, and after hearing what the old lady Liu said, she thought about it and accepted the brocade box with a smile.
"I listened to the old lady and took it for my father. On my father's birthday, thank you to the old lady for the reward. Liu Ruoxi smiled and said, "Old lady, find out any good things in the future, but don't forget me." ”
"But you are smarter than your father." Mrs. Liu said, "Your father, read a little bit." ”
Mrs. Liu's words seemed to be emotional, and I don't know if she was lamenting that Second Master Liu had suffered this incident for Third Master Liu today.
Liu Ruoyuan accepted the Ganan beads, and Liu Ruoyuan's face next to her was already jealous. Mrs. Liu seems to value Liu Ruoxi more and more, and although Liu Ruoxi no longer competes with her, she has not lost any benefits, and has a faint momentum to overpower her.
Liu Ruoyuan's heart was tormented, and she was about to say something, when she raised her eyes and saw Master Liu's solemn face, Liu Ruoyuan lowered her head and closed her mouth.
Everyone talked with Mrs. Liu again, and when they saw that Mrs. Liu was tired, they all said goodbye.
"Second brother, second sister-in-law, little brother is ashamed!" The third master of Liu bowed to the second master and the second wife of Liu. (To be continued......)
