Chapter 112: Jokes
This is really chilling, secretly thinking that his previous life is still not cold, but people here have been lively and married into a room of daughters-in-law, as if they are eager to erase their mother and daughter from the family. Wan Chun gritted her teeth and continued to listen, Lu Jian's skirt stomped her feet, and clapped her hands again, snapping like a big-eared melon seed, and she didn't know who she was going to hit in the face, and said with a purr in her mouth: "Mom, your old man has to speak with his conscience, have I treated you at fault for so many years?" I won't say anything about your partiality with the third brother, he is nothing to let him do, but it is too unreasonable for you to be partial to the eldest brother's family. What kind of background is the sister-in-law, who doesn't know who doesn't know our area? Their family is so poor that they can have dozens of mahogany boxes to marry? It's really a joke, when you married me out, I heard that I received a whole mule cart of bride price from the Si family, but when I went out, I didn't even get a box, I want to ask my mother, where did those bride prices go? ”
"Are you too embarrassed to mention it?" The old lady coughed twice, cleared her throat and shouted, "Why don't you ask your in-laws, what is the bride price?" A hundred feet of rags, unused silk yarn, and piles of pressed boxes were sent in the door, and I only thought it was a good thing, and I took it out almost without making people laugh at it. Although your dowry is less, one box is more than a hundred boxes of their company, and now you have the face to ask me about the bride price? You go and ask your uncle to ask, you ask him, I'm so embarrassed, marrying a big girl from someone else is even worse than marrying a prostitute in the hall. ”
The old lady's eloquence is really good, and the people who serve her say that she was widowed when she was young, so it is inevitable that there will be more right and wrong in front of the door, which makes people poke their backbones and gossip. The old lady was so angry that she took a bench. He sat down at the entrance of the alley and cursed for an evening. The neighbors are closed to avoid customers. At this time, Wanchun listened to her arguing with her daughter, and she was like a common enemy, saying something ugly, and she was happy and sympathetic for Jianskirt. It's just a mother of her own son, it's rare that my uncle is not worry-free, when she didn't die, I also heard that the dowry sent by my uncle was too cold, but I didn't expect it to be so cold, not a single eldest son didn't come out, only picked up some outdated cloth and sent it over. It's strange that the mother-in-law regretted marrying her daughter's intestines were green, and she said that she fell for the matchmaker. But at that time, she forgot that she was the biggest matchmaker. If it weren't for her, Jianhua wouldn't have to marry into the Si family. - Of course, maybe she might be as comfortable as in Si's house if she changed to another family.
Things in the world are always not as expected, Wanchun secretly thought, and heard that Jianskirt said that the sister-in-law was from a small portal, and she was stunned at first. According to Lu Jianhao's identity now, he can marry a woman who is the right person to be his wife. can also be beneficial to his officialdom, why did he find a poor family again? It's not like his own style.
She thought about it, and the noise over there became more and more incessant, and the old lady's sentence was 'better than marrying a prostitute'. completely broke up the relationship between herself and her daughter, and Lu Jian's skirt cried like a splash, probably breaking her mother's heart. "Whose fault is this?" Is it that I am going to marry, who was ruthless in the first place to be the master of me? I don't want to get married, and who asked someone to drag me into a sedan chair. Now there are fewer people complaining about the bride price. I knew this was the case, what did I do in the first place? You said that it is better for people to marry me than to marry a prostitute, when the eldest brother married his sister-in-law, how much did your old man spend, a silver dollar was broken in half, and the sister-in-law was an orphan, who would want to send his daughter in for others? ”
"She is also worthy of a silver dollar, a poor daughter, if it weren't for your eldest brother who said that she had a treasure in the house, I would have scarcely let her enter the door? Compared with her, do you eat less in our family or wear less for you? ”
When the old lady mentions old things, there are always many things waiting to be built. Jianskirt made her speechless, and the room was quiet again.
Wan Chun sat at the head of the bed in a daze, she heard that only now did she know that where there was any newly married sister-in-law, what they said was clearly themselves. The family is poor, and she is an orphan, and a silver dollar marries into the door, everything is in line with her past, and she doesn't believe that there is a second person who has a life like her.
It turns out that they were talking about her, sister-in-law? It's really hard for them to remember to call her sister-in-law, and they are still laughing at the non-person who Jianskirt married, and it will be their turn to laugh at themselves. Compared with the dowry of Jianskirt, her dowry back then was really not worth mentioning, but it was just a copper ring bought at the stall, which made her give her her whole body and mind, and she was willing to marry into the Lu family. Because her mother's family fled to Shanghai, her father died early, and her mother never told her any relatives and friends, so her marriage was completely based on her personal wishes.
She was really stupid at that time, she believed whatever others said, because her family was poor and there was no high hall, so her neighbors persuaded her to make a marriage early, in case she had no relatives and friends to bully her. She has enough to live alone, and some of the private money her mother has saved has made her almost enough to go to school, and she barely has some money left to buy her head and clothes. The Lu family is even simpler, except for renting a sedan chair with a pair of horns to welcome her into the door, nothing else is mentioned. The mother-in-law said that it was because she didn't have her mother's family, and she had to bring it back as it was, so it was better to put it in the Lu family, and it would be hers sooner or later, so she would admit it.
At this time, I heard Jian's skirt clamoring for a bride price, and I deeply regretted that I couldn't get what I deserved back. Moreover, she was also surprised that her mother-in-law actually said that her dowry had dozens of mahogany boxes. That's something she doesn't know at all, who would be willing to buy her such a rich dowry if she doesn't even have her mother's family, I'm afraid that her mother-in-law will deceive her into building a skirt.
She was just stunned, Cuizhi twisted a handkerchief and wanted to come over to wipe her hands, and suddenly looked up at her sitting as if she had lost her soul, so she hurriedly pushed her and smiled: "What do you think, so distracted?" I saw my eyes straightened. ”
Wan Chun came back to his senses, rubbed the corners of his forehead, and said with a smile: "There is a famine next door, and the noise gives me a headache." ”
Cuizhi snorted: "Ignore them, you know that it is a violent family, where can you not speak, you run here to say, the family is ugly, and I am not afraid that others will listen to the joke." ”
Xiu'er was considerate, so she said, "Why don't I go next door and remind them a few words, so that they can say less?" ”
"No need." Wan Chun waved his hand and stopped Xiu'er and said, "Other people's family affairs, if they make trouble, they will make trouble, and we can't make peace." Come here and help me sit up. ”
"Hey."
Xiu'er responded crisply, walked over and grabbed half of Wanchun's arm, saw her straighten her legs and go straight to the edge of the bed, and said with a smile: "What, are you going to get out of bed?" This can't be, the ankle injury has only been changed, and it is time to change it again. ”
Wan Chun said: "I don't want to go down, I'm just tired of lying on the bed, sit up and move my muscles and bones, you pull me." ”
Xiu'er really pulled her and changed her from sitting on the side to sitting on her side, Wanchun's right hand was better, almost not hurt, so she used her right hand to lift the left half of her sleeve and trousers, and looked down. The abrasion is not serious, but the surface of the skin is flushed with red silk, and it can be completely recovered after a few days of rubbing with muscle-building plaster, but the ankle injury is more serious, and it does not hurt the muscles and bones, but it is just twisted. This is also due to her luck, so she asked the window to block it and slow down the speed of the fall, otherwise it would be strange if she fell at such a height and didn't fall half to death. Wan Chun touched his ankle and moved, and a heart-piercing pain immediately extended from the soles of his feet to his heart, which made people feel uncomfortable.
She let go of her hand in frustration and muttered to herself: "I'm afraid that it won't be good for five or six days." ”
Xiu'er was close, and when she heard it, she smiled and said: "The most taboo to recuperate is to seek speed, people say, 'Hurt your muscles and bones for a hundred days', although your foot is only twisted, you have to be completely raised before you can get out of bed." ”
Wanchun also knew that she was in a hurry, she was busy in the ward, so she asked Cuizhi to bring a message to Zhongqing and asked her to bring a few medical books for herself. I can't go to school, and I still have to review my homework. Zhong Qing saw that it was Wanchun's explanation, how could there be a reason to do it wholeheartedly, so in the afternoon, he asked the people in the house to go to the library and buy a set of books according to the list of books in the medical college, and put them neatly on her bedside stand, so that she could flip through them.
Wanchun only used these books to pass the time in the past two days, and the old lady of the Lu family next door and Lu Jianskirt always had an endless quarrel, and they didn't stop until they went up three or four times a day. Wanchun was tired of reading, so she listened to the quarrel next door and was funny, Lu Jian's temper became more and more after she got married, and she was better than her mother, in order to be able to meet the Li family here, she tolerated almost all the abuse from her mother. But he never saw Lu Jianhao show up, Wanchun didn't know if he really ignored his mother's illness as Jianskirt said, but his third brother Jianpeng came a few times.
This young man can be said to be out of the mud and unstained, under the hypocrisy of his mother, eldest brother and second sister, it is rare that he still retains a sincere heart. In previous years, in the Lu family, whenever Lu Jianhao was not at home, when his mother-in-law and sister-in-law made things difficult for him, he mostly came forward to turn the war into a jade silk. Therefore, even though he hated the Lu family Wanchun to the core, he never complained about this little uncle.
It's just that his own situation is also difficult, he hasn't made much progress in his studies, and he is not as good as his brother who can drill camps, and he was born with a shy and honest skin. Occasionally, she said a few good words for her, and when she asked the old lady to scold, she scolded him red-faced, and she felt pitiful when she looked at it. When two poor people face each other, they will always cherish each other, so when they first enter the Lu family, they can still say a few words with their uncles and sisters-in-law behind their backs.
is like this, it can still hinder the eyes of others, the first sister-in-law Lu Jianskirt speaks the most ugly, it is not enough that she seduced the eldest brother, but she wants to seduce the third brother, Tian is shameless. was so angry that both uncle and sister-in-law were angry, but there was no way to reason with the same shrew, and slowly the two became estranged in order to avoid gossip.
