Chapter VIII Fines
When he returned to the Shen family from the Mei family, it was already unitary time.
Shen Yueran, as usual, put the remaining cakes in the back kitchen, took out two lotus paste shortbreads, and returned to the living room.
After a while, the door panel creaked, and then the sound of a wooden brush hitting a barrel, a barrel hitting a wooden door, and a wooden door slamming against the door frame.
", what a."
Shen Rihui began to curse.
Shen Yueran silently counted in her heart, "One, two, three-"
Sure enough, as soon as the word "three" fell, only to hear the sound of "bang", Shen Rihui scolded even more.
"Damn, what a broken door, every time we meet."
Shen Minggong, who came later, couldn't stop gasping.
Shen Yueran covered her mouth and snickered.
The door beam of the Shen family is low, Shen Rihui is burly, and his hands and feet are frizzy, every time he enters the door, he hits the threshold with the washing utensils in his hand, and then it is the turn of the head to make love with the lintel, Ren Shen Minggong said how many times he has to no avail.
There was a clanging sound, and after the washing utensils were placed, Shen Rihui shouted loudly, "Lady, lady." β
He picked up the cloth towel and brushed it around his body, looking around.
Unable to get a response, he walked to the window of the south room.
Shen Yueran heard footsteps and had plastic surgery.
She has always had a weak relationship with this so-called brother.
When she first crossed over, this brother often came to see her.
But every time, I couldn't stand Wu Zhaorong's crying.
He never concealed it, opened his mouth and closed his mouth, "Your sister-in-law said", soft and hard between words, in short, one purpose is to hope that she will take back her oath.
At first, she turned a deaf ear, but later she was disgusted, shook her cold face twice, and replied a few mean words.
Shen Rihui felt that it was a loss of face, and in a fit of anger, he slammed the door and walked out.
Since then, the brother and sister have rarely been alone, and there are really occasions where they can't hide, and they will pass after a few words.
At this moment, Shen Rihui walked under the window, he must have wanted to ask where Wu Zhaorong went.
Shen Yueran waited for him to speak.
Unexpectedly, Shen Rihui stood for a moment, didn't ask anything, turned around and left.
If you don't ask, you don't ask, and if you ask, I don't know!
Shen Yueran rolled her eyes.
In the back kitchen, Shen Rihui hurriedly chopped firewood, lit fires, boiled water, pasted noodles, and cooked soup. East House, heavy grinding grinding and practicing words. In the north room, Shen Minggong half-squinted and lay on the bed to rest. In the south room, Shen Yueran leaned on the head of the bed, flipping through ancient books, and nibbled on lotus paste shortbread without a bite.
At three o'clock, Wu Zhaorong pushed the door in like a whirlwind, shouting loudly.
"Lazy girl, you come out for me!"
Shen Yueran frowned.
What's crazy? Isn't it okay in the afternoon? What kind of anger did you get angry with her outside?
She leaned in a different position, rolling her eyes and flattening her mouth.
"Lady, what's wrong?" Shen Rihui came out in a panic.
"What's wrong?" Wu Zhaorong was so angry that he didn't even close the door, he went straight to the west room, and scolded while standing in the hall facing the south room.
"What's wrong with me, you're still asking? If I hadn't gone out today and seen the notice from the county government, how long would your father and son hide it from me? β
"Shen Rihui, let me ask you, did you already know? Otherwise, you discussed something with me last night, and took over the work of washing the city. As long as you are lazy, just your scumbag energy that eats the last meal and doesn't care about the next meal, if it weren't for the notice, it's strange that you are willing to do more! β
"Your father and son teamed up to deceive me, and this still doesn't let people live." Wu Zhaorong howled.
"The lady is angry, the lady is angry, listen to me, listen to me......" Shen Rihui was clumsy.
Shen Yueran couldn't sit still, pulled her cloth shoes, and opened the door.
"What's the noise? What is the notice of the prefectural government? Something to do with me? She whispered.
Wu Zhaorong saw her impatient, remembered the fall, and swallowed his saliva.
Immediately, she grabbed Shen Rihui's arm again and straightened her neck, "Nonsense, nonsense!" Of course it's about you, if it's not about you, what am I scolding you for? Originally, for the sake of my father-in-law's body and father-in-law's face, I, who was a sister-in-law, opened one eye and closed one eye, and put up with you as a lazy sister-in-law everywhere. Unexpectedly, it was not so easy at all! The notice of the county government said that those who do not marry after the age of 16 and have exceeded five years will be fined another hundred taels of silver! You say, "Where are we going to get these hundred taels of silver?" Moreover, if you are punished once, you will be punished a second time, and who knows if there will be a third or fourth time? If you don't marry and keep punishing like this, when will the Shen family's hard life be a leader......"
"Why is my life so bitter, my sister-in-law dragged the oil bottle, and my father-in-law and father-in-law partnered to deceive, how can I ......live this life?"
"It's all my fault that the lady is angry." Shen Rihui hurriedly reassured Wu Zhaorong, "Daddy and I did know about this matter for a long time, but the notice was only posted three days ago, and we only knew about it two days earlier." I haven't told you all the time, because I think it's a foregone conclusion, so why bother with one more person? Don't be annoyed, lady. β
"It's annoying, it's annoying." Wu Zhaorong sprinkled, "I already knew why you didn't sue me?" Do you still have me in your eyes......"
"Yes, yes, of course there are ......"
Wu and Shen were noisy, the other coaxed, the chaotic sound was in the ears, and Shen Yueran was full of fire.
How did she think the notice was clearly aimed at her?
There are still many girls of marriageable age who have not been married, let alone her, an "old girl"?
There are still many girls who hate to marry who have not married, let alone her, who vowed not to marry?
As Wu Zhaorong said, if she doesn't marry for life, will she be punished for the rest of her life?
The matter of marrying is what you and I want, and she doesn't want to marry anyone?
The yamen wants to go crazy for silver, right?
What the hell notice?!
Damn the Marriage Order!
"Bullshit!" She was furious.
Wu Zhaorong had sharp ears and reacted quickly, "Who are you scolding, dead girl?" β
Shen Yueran was angry, "Who scolds whom!" β
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the inner room, closed the door with a bang, and covered his ears with both hands.
"Ahh
"Let me die! was scolded by my sister-in-law, what kind of face do I, who is a sister-in-law, have to stay in the Shen family? The old ones don't say anything, the few don't speak, it's all up to the dead girl who has been struck by thunder! Daddy, daddy, look at the good things you did at the beginning, for the sake of a joke that you are a relative, let your daughter marry into the Shen family. This is good, you just wait to collect your daughter's body, and the white-headed man will send the black-headed man......"
She cried and slammed into the wall.
Shen Rihui hugged her tightly, calling "lady" and "lady" non-stop.
Shen Chong, who heard the movement, also ran, but he did not step into the hall, but grabbed the windowsill and grimaced at Shen Yueran.
"Oh, come on, the Shen family has another good show." A woman was holding a bowl of noodles and leaning against the wide open wooden door of the Shen family.
"Really? Wait for meβtsk, move somewhere, I can't see it. Another woman held a pancake and craned her neck excitedly.
It's all a group of masters who are full of food and can be scolded!
Shen Yueran scolded in her heart, glared at Shen Zheng, and opened the door angrily.
