Chapter 23 Zhang's who became the focus of public opinion

Ma Shi, who happened to return to the courtyard after cleaning up the kitchen, heard his mother-in-law say such things to the master, only to feel that his eyes were dizzy with anger, and he said angrily: "Mother, where am I sorry for you, you actually let the master divorce me,"

Zhang's was a little weak-hearted, but when he saw the anger on Ma's face, he also said angrily: "Where are you right about me, married into the Tang family for three years, and didn't even give birth to a baby, you look at other people's pigs, a litter can give birth to a dozen, I don't expect you to give birth to so much, you can give birth to a son, you can't give birth to anything, what's the use of you?" ”

was cursed by her mother-in-law, panting, red-eyed Ma screamed: "Just because of this matter, you are going to be in charge of the family and divorce me, you don't think of my hard work and resentment against you, just think of a relationship between me and the master, and you can't say that I will divorce me if you leave,"

Tang Tiefeng saw that his mother-in-law was hindered by her girlish demon, hurriedly put down the axe in his hand, pulled Ma Shi and said: "Daughter-in-law, don't listen to your mother's nonsense, I can't divorce you, just put your heart in your stomach," and gave Ma Shi a look again, and continued: "Hurry back to the house, you are still reasonable to quarrel with your mother, if you really want to make a good deal of your mother's anger, you won't be good at that time," If you let the people in the village or the uncle know that your mother-in-law is not inferior, most of them will really be divorced.

Ma originally wanted the head of the house to defend her in front of her mother-in-law, so that the mother-in-law would not be so embarrassed for her to see the face of the house, and when she heard the satisfactory answer, she laughed in her heart, but her face showed a very aggrieved expression.

Zhang's was not happy, he screamed, pointed at Tang Tiefeng and said: "You have no conscience, who am I doing this for, not for you, your mother-in-law married in, one can't have children, two is lazy, three love to say right and wrong, there is no one who can take it, don't stop her, what do you keep it for, don't lay eggs, move the nest quickly, my old Tang family will not want it." ”

With such a loud noise, the old Tang Tou even came out to see what was going on, and even the farmers and peasant women in the aisle and the surrounding neighbors came out to see the excitement, but this kind of scene was not suitable for the babies to see, so Li and Sun locked the babies in the family into a room and asked Tang Qinger to take them, Tang Qinger pouted and was not happy, such a scene is really a hundred years old, so I wanted to stay and watch the excitement, but was restrained by a look from her mother, and when she returned to her house with her younger siblings, her curiosity led her to turn back step by step.

Ma, who was about to go back to the house, knew that this matter could not be good today, and he also broke the jar and said: "Mother-in-law, how can you be sure that I can't give birth to a son, my mother gave birth to five of our brothers and sisters, just say that my eldest sister and second sister, since they got married, which one didn't give birth to three babies in one go, and there is no example of my mother's family not being able to give birth to a baby, how can you be sure that I can't give birth to a baby." ”

"If you can give birth, don't you give birth a long time ago, if you really want to give birth, why bother me to bother with so much tongue, saying, look at your sister and them, what is the use of them, you are not them, you can give birth to three children in a row, if you really give birth to a few grandchildren for me, I will treat you as an aunt and grandmother in the future." Zhang relied on the large number of people inside and outside the courtyard and said loudly sarcastically.

When did the old Tang family be laughed at by the village like this, this incident was all made by the old woman, looking at the novels that people outside the courtyard were muttering, and even more, in that sneaky laughter, the old Tang's angry chest couldn't breathe, pointing at Zhang's speechless, Tang Tiezhu saw his father like this, and hurriedly walked over to help him, and didn't know how to comfort his father.

Li and Sun, who were watching from the sidelines, glanced at each other, and felt that such a scene was really not good for outsiders to see, so the two hurriedly walked to the door and said to the people watching the excitement outside: "There is nothing lively to see, everyone should go," and then closed the door and plugged in the deadbolt.

People outside are talking a lot, this old Tang family has no quiet time, just after the separation of the family, why did the Zhang family and her daughter-in-law work again, someone said: "You don't know that this Zhang family is not easy to get along with, you see her eldest and second daughter-in-law, inside and outside the house are good at work, and can also give birth to babies, so do you see her happy?" It's not because it's not biological, it's a nose and an eye, if my son marries a daughter-in-law like the eldest and second child in the future, I won't have to provide for it every day, and I have to wake up with a smile in my dreams. "The second sister-in-law of Wu on the other side of the river who spoke, everyone knew that her eldest son was only ten years old, and there was nothing to make such jokes, so everyone was happy to listen to this joke.

Talking and laughing, many villagers went to their homes, and some people who watched the excitement and listened to the sound did not leave: "Hey, the eldest and the second are not easy these years, earning money to help their younger brothers and sisters start a family, and finally looking forward to the separation of the family, the days have not yet passed, this is not noisy again, Zhang can't find the fault of the eldest and the second daughter-in-law, and began to find fault with Ma's, just because there is no baby for three years, I want to divorce her, our village is not that rich family, how can we keep these moths, and it's not ten years without children, just say that you will take a break, alas, whoever is her daughter-in-law is unlucky, That's right! You don't know who her little girl marries yet, do you?"

"I've heard about Xu people, but I haven't heard of which family it is, alas! When her daughter was fourteen years old, there was still no one to come to the door to propose, she knew that she was in a hurry, and asked the matchmaker in the village to come over to help match, help find a good young man from the neighboring village, so as to tell her daughter to others, but as soon as people heard that it was her daughter, they all retreated, we are a village, who does not know that her daughter has the same temperament as her, tricky and mean, and has never had a good face for her sisters-in-law, what kind of person is this matchmaker, who walks the streets and alleys day by day, the east and west are short, and they all know the things of their family, This Zhang family is a nonsense in the village, who is willing to let his son marry her daughter, "The person who speaks is really stinky, and it is almost worthless to bury Zhang's daughter."

Another B answered: "No, I only heard about it before, and then I saw it with my own eyes, this Zhang's daughter-in-law is working for her sister-in-law, just like the owner of a big family to the maid, and she doesn't have a good face,"

The stinky A mother-in-law just now continued: "The bubbles on her feet are all out of her, otherwise it would be so difficult to find her mother-in-law's family, phew, Zhang thought that she had found someone for her daughter, and she still hid it, so as not to let us know, there is no impermeable wall in the world, she found a good home for her daughter, but it was my distant relative, surnamed Song, the second son of his family had married a relative, but his daughter-in-law gave birth to a child with difficult birth, one corpse and two lives, married her daughter as a continuation, and like her mother, she was a daughter-in-law to the person who died of her mother-in-law, Fortunately, the second son of the old Song family has no children, if there is a baby, the baby will not have to be as miserable as the boss of the Tang family, "Let your Zhang family show off in front of me, and let your daughter fill the house like you."

"It's really fake, how did I hear that her daughter was talking about a young man, don't spread it, this ruining the reputation of her daughter is not authentic," also a kind-hearted C persuaded on the side.

"What am I lying to you about, really! Her daughter will marry the cousin of my distant cousin in the future, this is true, you don't believe it, when her daughter gets married, you just go and ask the person who welcomes the kiss, how can the Zhang family easily tell others about this, we know that this radius of fifty miles, no one is willing to marry her daughter at all, this Zhang is afraid that he knows this, and he is afraid that he will be embarrassed to say it, so he has been covering it and not saying it. The foul-mouthed mother-in-law A continued, as if she was said to be angry that she was angry at the basin on Zhang's body.

Ahem...... The origin of the ancient seven

The term "seven outs" originated in the Han Dynasty, and the earliest document that can be seen so far is the Han Dynasty's "Dadai Li Ji? Natal life", called "seven goes" and "seven abandonments". It is said that "a woman has 'seven goes': disobedience to her parents (this refers to her in-laws), going, childlessness, fornication, envy, going, having a bad disease, going, talking more, stealing, going." He also explained that disobedience to one's parents is due to their disobedience, childlessness is their desperation, fornication is their disorder, jealousy is their disorder, there is a bad disease because they cannot share it with one (prepare sacrificial offerings), too many words are its separation from relatives, and theft is its opposite. However, the phenomenon of divorce has long existed, and the pre-Qin women who married and were divorced were called "return" at the same time, and the divorced women were also called "great return", and the women who were divorced were called "abandoned women". The Han Dynasty proposed that the "seven outs" were related to the "five non-marrying" (incestuous families, anti-moral families, daughters of families with torture and serious diseases in the previous generation, and eldest daughters without mothers). In this way, the two gates of marriage are closed. In the Tang Dynasty, the "seven outs" rule was incorporated into the law, and when the wife was not out and abandoned at will, it would be subject to the intervention of the law; And change the order of the seven to "childless, adulterous, indifferent aunts (in-laws), tongue, theft, jealousy, and evil disease". The Qing law was changed to: "childless, innocent aunt, fornication, jealousy, evil disease, excessive speech, theft"; And for women who commit adultery, there is no "three no-go" changes. The change in the order of "seven outs" reflects the different standards required of women in different eras.

Therefore, it is said: "A daughter-in-law who has been boiling for many years has become a mother-in-law." The daughter-in-law married into the door and worked hard under the control and leadership of her mother-in-law. The hard work in the daily housework is done by the daughter-in-law, who not only suffers from physical labor, but also often endures the emotional torture of her mother-in-law's criticism, scrutiny, blame, and scolding. The mother-in-law is alive, and the daughter-in-law will never come out. The mother-in-law always has the final say in housework, and whether it is right or wrong, you have to listen to the mother-in-law. Because the filial husband is always submissive to his mother-in-law's words, the economic power and decision-making power are on the side of the father-in-law, and the daughter-in-law can only endure the bitterness! Once the mother-in-law and father-in-law passed away, the daughter-in-law's children also grew up, got married, and married the daughter-in-law, and the original daughter-in-law has finally become a mother-in-law, the boss of the housekeeping affairs in the family, and the person who deals with housework in the family! Although he has no longer been angry since the death of his mother-in-law, the time when he really raises his eyebrows and commands is when the new daughter-in-law marries in the door and plays the role of mother-in-law. If you are a daughter-in-law, you have to listen to your mother-in-law and boil it out step by step! It's really a daughter-in-law who has been boiling for many years to become a mother-in

Summary: It is not easy to be a mother-in-law, and it is even more difficult to be a daughter-in-law.
