Chapter 16 (Trouble)
"Oh, I said mother, can I still lie to you, I really saw the eldest brother and sister-in-law and they all went to the county, I don't believe you and I will go to the old house with me to take a look." I can also look for it to see if there is any money hidden at home. Xiao Gao thought darkly in his heart.
After Bai Gao's second daughter-in-law repeatedly promised, he suddenly became angry, and then kept patting the table and vented: "Okay, I'll just say how can they be so obedient and don't want to break up the family, it turns out that the people have already buried the pit there and waited for the old woman to jump down, but they turned out to be good, not only did they have nothing, but they were scolded by the old man and spurned by the people in the village who didn't know the truth." ”
"It turns out that your old man still knows that what he is doing is not authentic, I thought you didn't feel it." Xiao Gao secretly pursed his lips in his heart, and he didn't say a word, just let Bai Gao toss around there, anyway, as long as she will go to the old mansion with herself, it will be done.
"How are all the work done? You're still here pestle, asking me to ask you to work, but you can't do it. Bai Gao's slapped the table for a long time, and when he saw that no one paid attention to him, he turned his head to start a fire at the little daughter-in-law who was standing in the corner, and as for why he didn't scold Xiao Gao, he was naturally reluctant to give her no face, after all, she was not his distant cousin niece (feelings in your old heart, only Xiao Gao's family is relatives and daughters-in-law, and everyone else is not).
Xiao Gao saw that his mother was angry, so he hurriedly leaned up and wrapped his arms around Bai Gao's arm, and said affectionately: "Mother, why don't we go to the eldest brother's residence now?" ”
"Go, why don't you go, I want to see what they are doing to hide from my mother." Bai Gao's second daughter-in-law was mentioned like this, and he suddenly came to his senses, and planned to go to the old mansion to explore Bai Dafu's bottom. "Third daughter-in-law, do you remember to wash a pile of clothes in the yard after cleaning up the house, and then chop up the pigweed and feed it to the pigs, or wait for me to come back and see if I don't cut you to death, do you hear? …… Why, you can't squeak when you're dumb. ”
Li's hand in his sleeve was tightly held until his nails were about to sink into the flesh, then he controlled his feelings, lowered his eyelids to hide the unwillingness and resentment in his eyes, lowered his head and said to Bai Gao's "respectfully": "I know Mother, don't worry, I will do everything well." ”
"It's good to know." Bai Gao looked at the little daughter-in-law's low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, and couldn't help but proudly take Xiao Gao's hand and walk outside the house, while saying to Xiao Gao: "Look at this person, he is a cheap, talk to her well and don't listen, but he won't know to be obedient until he finishes beating and scolding her." ”
"It's all because of your prestige in the family, so you can control these things." Xiao Gao glanced at Li contemptuously, and then patted Bai Gao's sycophant and agreed.
And the Li family, who was standing in the house, waited until they all came out of the courtyard happily, and after hearing the sound of the courtyard door closing, he raised his head, only to see that usually quite docile face, at this time, because of resentment, he couldn't help but twist, like a yaksha crawling out of hell, hideous and terrifying.
At this time, in the old mansion of the Bai family, Bai Cuicui was holding the hoe that Bai's father turned out of the utility room (it is more appropriate to say that it is a hoe than a piece of rust). Put it on the stone and sharpen it, so take the small stone to the backyard to remove the remaining weeds, and turn over the land, so that when the Lu family comes back, let's see how to plant some easy-to-live vegetables, and then you can add a vegetable or something to the house. As for her second sister Bai Dongye, in this regard, Bai Cuicui only begged her not to come out to make trouble, so she should be thankful, and forget about the rest.
When Bai Gao and Xiao Gao swaggered to the old mansion, they saw that the courtyard door of the old mansion was locked, and the courtyard was empty, so Bai Gao looked at Xiao Gao and motioned her to come forward and knock on the door.
Although Xiao Gao was not happy to do what her mother meant, she still smiled at Bai Gao, indicating that she knew, and then raised her foot to kick the door with a "knock" sound, as if she was spilling her anger on the door.
And although Bai Dongye in the house first heard the shouts of Xiao Gao's outside the courtyard, he still turned around and covered his ears with his hands, and then fell asleep on the bed, anyway, even if she didn't open the door, someone would open it, so why did she do it thanklessly?
So in the end, when Bai Cuicui, who was waiting in the backyard, led the small stone out to open the door, Xiao Gao and the others were already impatient, and when they saw that someone came to open the door, they scolded with a cold face: "You are deaf, you didn't hear me and your grandmother have been shouting outside for a long time." After speaking, he glanced at Bai Cuicui, and speculated viciously: "Is there still something unsightly that I am afraid that we will not be able to do?" Hmph, sure enough, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, there is a pair of fathers and mothers who can hide private money, what kind of daughter do they have. ”
Bai Cuicui originally wanted to explain patiently, but when she heard Xiao Gao's words, her face couldn't help but turn cold, and she pursed her lips and said sarcastically: "I don't have to worry about how my father and mother taught me, of course, no matter how they teach, they are definitely not as smart and clever as the second aunt you teach." "And it's going to be slippery and lazy.
"You ......"
"Smack-" Bai Gao's on the side saw that Bai Cuicui still dared to talk back, so he immediately slapped her, and put on the posture of an elder with a tiger face and said: "Your second aunt has no right to discipline you, I'll be the head of my grandmother." ”
"Eldest sister, how are you, does it hurt?" Xiaoshi was still hiding behind his sister, but when he saw his grandmother slapping his sister without saying a word, although he was still very afraid of them, he remembered that his father told him that they were manly men and wanted to protect his mother and sister, although he was still young, but he was also a little man. Little Stone secretly cheered himself up.
"Sister is fine, don't worry." Bai Cuicui looked at Xiao Shi who was obviously afraid to die, but he still stubbornly stood in front of him and wanted to "protect" himself, and couldn't help but feel moved, only to feel that even the wound on his face was not so painful.
When Xiao Gao saw the affectionate appearance of the sister and brother, and compared his three children, he only felt that the two of them were extremely eyesore, and his heart was also tired. So he pulled the white slate and asked, "Let me ask you, what did your father and mother do in the county this morning, did you go shopping?" ”
Xiao Shi saw that the collar of his back coat was grabbed by the second aunt, so he quickly twisted his body and struggled, but he just ignored her. Because the eldest sister told him a long time ago, don't talk to the second aunt casually, otherwise you will be bought like last time and you won't know. Hmph, his Bai Xiaoshi's memory is good, so he won't forget it.
