Xia Ruan looked at his father and smiled slightly.
It's a coincidence today, as soon as Zhao went out, he acted in such a good show, and Xia Ruan watched it with relish.
Xia Fucheng looked away and said after a while, "What's wrong?" How could Mother Zhou kneel here. β
What else? It is nothing more than self-inflicted.
Several mothers-in-law who followed Zhou Xihua knelt outside the gate with snot and tears, looking more miserable than the other.
But who can blame for this?
If they had done what they had to do and did not sell their lords for glory, they would not have ended up like this.
Man dies for money, and birds die for food.
If other mothers-in-law want to go to the eldest uncle's side, Xia Ruan also feels more or less excusable. But Xia Ruan never thought that Zhou Xihua would actually follow, and she still made the most noise in the yard, saying that she would leave if she died.
At the beginning, Zhou Xihua's husband wanted to use his daughter to pay off his debts because of gambling debts. Zhou Xihua didn't want her daughter to be sold on the street, so she was about to throw herself into the river while holding her daughter. If it weren't for the fact that he met the Li family, this Zhou Xihua would have been dead by now.
The Buddha said that saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter.
But now, the Li family saved Zhou Xihua and gave a lot of silver, which made his situation embarrassing. But he was stumbled by Zhou Xihua, and the huge courtyard was served by Wang San and Cuiliu.
When his father asked, Xia Ruan didn't answer, let alone count Zhou Xihua, he just had a sullen tone in his heart. After all, she is at the door now, and there are many chances to fall in the future, so why let the people around her see her jokes?
As a result, Xia Ruan's evasion made Zhou Xihua even more energetic. Not far away, she said to Zhao, who was wearing a small begonia red floral cotton jacket: "Big lady, you must be the master of the old slave." A few days ago, it was obviously Zhang's mother who said that we could come to the uncle's house to do things when we came out of the second lady's house, but now why don't you take us in? Today, the old slave is not messing around here, who is reasonable and who is not, everyone knows in their hearts. β
Cuiliu scoffed.
The Zhao family was trembling with anger at this time, but he couldn't say half a sentence to refute it, but Xia Fugui, who was standing next to the Zhao family, pointed at Zhou Xihua and shouted: "Nonsense, you are all nonsense." β
The words are just right.
Xia Fucheng came late, so he naturally didn't understand what his eldest brother and the servants in his family had. Just by feeling, Xia Fucheng felt that there was a bit of a grudge in it. He raised an eyebrow, then couldn't help but glance at Cuiliu, as if asking what was going on.
Before Cuiliu could answer, Xia Ruan walked to Xia Fucheng's side, smiled slightly, and disagreed: "Father hurriedly went into the house to rest, and I will make dinner myself, which can be regarded as picking up the wind and washing the dust for my father." β
Xia Fucheng has a straight posture, a handsome face, and a tooth-colored round-necked robe, covered with gold and silver rats. The whole person looks a little more frivolous and a little less calm than Xia Fugui.
Xia Ruan thought, why would this person who likes to look for flowers and ask willows, but is unkind, be her father?
"Your eldest uncle is not a violent and wanton person, it must be Mother Zhou who has done something wrong. Hurry up and let Zhou's mother leave, so as not to ruin the interest of my brother's reunion. Xia Fucheng smiled and explained righteously.
Xia Ruan lowered his eyes, his father was so naΓ―ve. In many things, he did not understand what it was like for the most believing person to betray him. He has always thought that his eldest uncle is his eldest brother, and he will definitely not harm him in many things. But I never thought that sometimes, things are often the opposite.
Those thin family affections, in the eyes of the eldest uncle, are not as affordable as silver.
She didn't want to stop Zhou Xihua's crying today, and let her father see clearly what her uncle's intentions were.
Zhou Xihua heard Xia Fucheng say this, and she could continue to endure there. stood up directly, straightened up, pointed at Zhao's nose and scolded: "Big lady, you are a good trick, a few days ago, I asked Mother Wang to come and tell us that if you leave the second master's house, you will give us a salary increase." We have left the second master's side now, but you are unwilling to accept us. Isn't that bullying? What about when we are monkeys? However, the eldest lady and the old slave are now the ones who have to support the family, and if you let the old slave not survive, then the old slave will make this matter bigger. Let the people around you see what kind of person your eldest lady is. It's a pity for the second lady, and you will meet a vicious sister-in-law like you. β
As soon as these words came out, they were silent.
Zhao covered his chest in embarrassment, as if he had been greatly wronged.
This was completely unexpected by Xia Ruan. She raised her head and glanced at the eldest aunt, and it happened that the eldest aunt also looked over, and the eyes of the two met. Zhao's eyes were cold and piercing, like a sharp blade, eager to pierce Xia Ruan. But Xia Ruan's eyes were cold and indifferent, as if a bystander was watching a play. At the end, there was a shallow smile on her lips, as if she was pitying the Zhao family, but in the eyes of outsiders, she was doing her best of etiquette.
Zhao was stunned for a moment and then lowered his head, losing interest.
She gripped her coat and her fingers squeezed it hard, vaguely white.
Xia Ruan looked at it in her eyes, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, this eldest aunt was really calm.
As the saying goes, people are better than people and more dead than people. If it had been before, she would have quarreled with her aunt a long time ago. That can be like the eldest aunt, in an unfavorable situation, can still be so calm.
Sometimes, with just one look, you can know whether you are falling behind.
"How can you shameless nasty thing slander your sister-in-law like this." Xia Fucheng frowned, and his voice was displeased: "Zhou Xihua, you also have to take a mirror to look at, and it is not worthy to hand tea and water in the sister-in-law's house." β
Hearing this, Xia Ruan couldn't laugh or cry.
It seems that now, my father is still willing to believe in my uncle, and she is a little disappointed.
It's just that where did my father learn these swearing? It's rude, but it's relieving.
Xia Ruan's lips turned up slightly.
Cuiliu replied on the side: "Second master, Mother Zhou has already left the Xia family." A few days ago, she said that she was too little paid, and she said that she still needed to be busy at home, and she had no time to serve the second lady. The third lady is sick, and Zhou's mother is even more noisy. Mrs. felt that Mother Zhou's loss of honor would disturb the third lady's recuperation, so she let Mother Zhou go. β
Adding oil and vinegar is also a matter of skill, and don't say much when you shouldn't.
When Cuiliu said this, Xia Fucheng was stunned.
Because Xia Fucheng is a man of knowledge, Cuiliu is not a person who speaks words.
What is happening today?
Xia Ruan looked at his father, his eyes were as clear as water, and he said softly, "Father, let's talk about it when we enter the house." Just right, let the eldest uncle and the eldest aunt come over for dinner and have a good conversation. Although the daughter is not as good as the cook in her uncle's house, she has exquisite cooking skills. But you can also make a few side dishes that are barely in the mouth. β
When the uncle and aunt heard that their father had returned, they stood at the door and waited unkindly. Fortunately, she came out first, otherwise I don't know what Uncle Lu Dao would say to her father.
So, it just so happened that she would give her uncle and aunt a chance to talk to her father tonight.
It's just that she will listen to it from the sidelines, and she won't let others slaughter her.
