Chapter 9 Settling In
Sister-in-law Hu said again, "This Cheng Sanniang is a person who refuses to take advantage, how many people eat for three people, they bring their own staple food, and they work very neatly, their family used to be a big family in Jiangnan, if it wasn't for the crime, tsk!" ”
Hu Xiaoqi knows a lot more than Sister-in-law Hu, "She was also implicated when she said it in her family, in fact, he also had a brother who heard that he was still the champion, but no one dared to ask for it, but this Cheng Yang is different, he is implicated, and he is not the main culprit, so I transferred him to me." If this Cheng Sanniang is a good one, you also have a companion. "Hu Xiaoqi has only been in office for a few years, and he is often not at home, and Hu's sister-in-law is also very lonely.
Sister-in-law Hu is very sweet in her heart, she is the daughter of Xu Zongqi, at that time Xu Zongqi was still Xu Baihu, she is also a young lady, and there are little girls around to serve, but Xu Zongqi was demoted because he offended the adults of Qianhu, and the son of Qianhu also divorced her, and was affected by the divorce Sister-in-law Hu did not marry his father's soldier Hu Xiaoqi until he was twenty years old.
Unfortunately, Fang Bingbing came back at this time, and Sister-in-law Hu beckoned Fang Bingbing to eat again, Fang Bingbing nodded slightly, then ate more than a dozen dumplings, and asked Brother Yu to eat a small bowl with chopsticks, and when he was full, Fang Bingbing took Cheng Yu to wash the cutting board and wash the dishes for Sister-in-law Hu's house, and then stood up and went to Sister-in-law Hu's room to talk.
At this time, there was still Grandma Zhan San in Sister-in-law Hu's room, and when she came in, she heard Grandma Zhan San's voice pretending to be everyone's ladies, "I wanted to come earlier, but my mother-in-law and they haven't eaten yet, and we as daughters-in-law have to serve again, so I will come to you." ”
Zhan San's grandmother and Zhan Er's family are all assigned to Hu Xiaoqi's here, Zhan San's grandmother has obviously washed up at this time, wearing a Hangzhou silk collared gown, and the bottom is a horse-faced skirt of the same color, and a hosta is inserted on her head, Fang Bingbing thought to herself, you are still in your Kaifeng Zhan family, this kind of dress will not only not make people look down on you, but will also feel that you are not close to them.
Grandma Zhan San obviously also saw Fang Bingbing, the disdainful look in her eyes, as if she was afraid that Fang Bingbing would get too close to her, "Why does Grandma Cheng San look like this?" ”
"Don't you dare to be, what grandma's wife, now that we have settled here, you can just call me Cheng Sanniang." Fang Bingbing said to her with a smile.
The smell of earth in this room is very strong, and although Grandma Zhan San said goodbye with a smile on her face, the pace is much faster.
As soon as she left, Sister-in-law Hu's face immediately sank, "Which green onion is here for me." She pulled Fang Bingbing angrily and said, "She also claims to be the third grandmother of the Zhan family, bah, don't look at what kind of person she is now, eldest sister, I can tell you, your family is implicated, and it is not the same as the main culprit, and the future will definitely be good, but there are several people in their Zhan family who are greedy for ink, including Zhan San, if it weren't for her two sons, I would definitely not let them enter our small banner." ”
Fang Bingbing persuaded, "There are many children in the Zhan family, don't offend other Zhan family members for her alone, no matter what, you are Mrs. Xiaoqi, and she will say that grandma is not a soldier's mother-in-law, don't be angry!" ”
"Yo, what the eldest sister said is, hey, don't worry, work hard here, and the days will get better and better." Sister-in-law Hu was persuaded by Fang Bingbing, and almost thought of the title of Zhan's third mother-in-law, and the depression in her heart dispersed a lot.
Seeing her like this, Fang Bingbing also saw that Sister-in-law Hu was a broad-hearted person, and she had a little more affection for her in her heart, Fang Bingbing wanted to know more about the people around her, so she asked Sister-in-law Hu, "Tell me how many families there are in our Xiaoqi, and I'm afraid that I will admit my mistake in the future." ”
Sister-in-law Hu used to be alone at home by herself, she couldn't find a partner if she wanted to gossip, seeing Fang Bingbing ask like this, she instantly opened the spirit of gossip, "Our flag, there are exactly ten soldiers, and the rest of the army is not counted, your family Cheng Sanlang counts as one, Zhan Erlang counts as one, and Zhan San counts as one, and then there is the second son of the Wang family counts as one, and Father Yang's two sons are both soldiers, one is the personal soldier of the commander of the guard, and there is also ......."
After listening to Sister-in-law Hu's introduction to the man, Fang Bingbing was more curious about Song Xianggong's family, "Then Song Xianggong went, how did the family live?" ”
"Who's to say it isn't? Song Xianggong's eldest daughter is fifteen years old, just over the age of Xuan, with an excellent temperament and diligent people, but unfortunately, she has four younger siblings under her head, because of the heavy burden, but some people say that she is pro, and the condition she proposed is to take care of the first four younger siblings, and many of them have retreated. Usually this Song eldest sister takes the job from the town, and her eyes are almost blind, but you also know that in our place, embroidery is not very profitable at all, at most the wedding will have more money, and there is no income at all, and these children are not very good at farming, in short, they all rely on the solid family to help more. Sister-in-law Hu was also quite emotional at this time.
Fang Bingbing understood, "So that's the case, hey, no one has a hard time." ”
Sister-in-law Hu heard her say this, but she sneered and laughed, "Big sister, I believe what others say, but I don't believe what you say." Seeing Fang Bingbing's puzzled eyes, he explained, "You used to be everyone's grandmother, but now you are much more powerful than what we are used to, your man is upright and prime, and you have a son, and you will only get better in the future." ”
Fang Bingbing stood up and shook his head while laughing, "You praised me, hehe." ”
"Can you tell me about the people of the Wang family again?" Fang Bingbing asked about the Wang family again.
Sister-in-law Hu frowned when she heard this, "The Wang family has three sons, two daughters, and only one second son of the army, the old woman of the Wang family has always been very biased, and the younger daughter wears rag clothes all day long. Her eldest daughter's marriage is afraid of ...... Ay! ”
Fang Bingbing was silent when she heard this, but this is the case in the countryside now, not to mention the countryside, even the big families are patriarchal, otherwise how could Mrs. Cheng put up with her bullying her niece Yao, not because Yao has no children.
However, Sister-in-law Hu was a lot happier when she mentioned the Yang family, "The Yang family is good, his two brothers are very promising, one is our archery master here, the other is selected to be the commander of the guard, and the Yang family also has a little daughter, although she is a little too pampered, but Aunt Yang is still very good." ”
