Chapter 14 Mrs. Xie's Family

"Children are not sensible, sister-in-law should not blame. Hugh said that he ate such a meal, that is, he came to support his brother and mother every day, and he should have done so. Xie Ling hurriedly pushed Yichen behind him and said with a smile.

Dwarf Winter Melon glanced at Xie Ling coldly and said, "It's good if you know." Drinking water must think of the source, and being a person must also know its duty. My mother is waiting for you in the big house to bring you meat. Do you know how much to give? ”

Xie Ling said with a smile: "How many miles are there to be filial piety, of course, all." As he spoke, he pointed to half a pound of pork belly on the stove.

The dwarf winter melon left satisfied.

"Mother, didn't she take advantage of the fire to rob?" Yichen waved his fist at the back of the dwarf winter melon angrily, "We only have half a catty of meat, we gave it to them, what do we eat." ”

"Yes, mother, although the Xie family took us in at that time, we have never had a good life, eating the leftovers they eat every day, and raising silkworms for them for free. As soon as the silkworms spit out, they took them away, and they took them to the town to sell, but they didn't give us a penny. "Er Ya couldn't be angry.

Meiya simply cried: "Meiya wants to eat meat, and my mother doesn't give them meat." Meiya also wants to eat meat. ”

Xie Ling was cleaning up the table, listening to the children's words, she had never had any opinions in the past, and her waist suddenly straightened: "The grace of dripping water is reciprocated by springs." How can you say that about your grandmother and your uncle? It's a few pieces of meat. Originally, the mother's life was also saved by the Xie family. ”

The children had never seen Xie Lingsheng so angry, and they didn't dare to speak out again. Yichen tugged at the sleeves of the Dragon Boat Festival, "My mother listens to the words of the third sister the most, third sister, you can persuade your mother quickly." ”

Dragon Boat Festival said with a smile: "Younger brothers and sisters, don't worry, the Xie family just wants a few pieces of meat now, if you don't give them to them, I'm afraid that they will gossip in the village, and my mother doesn't like to cause trouble." It's just a few pieces of meat, and my sister will buy it for you. ”

Xie Ling nodded with relief and continued to clean up the table.

Erya pulled the Dragon Boat Festival into the room, "Dragon Boat Festival, you won't really let your mother send meat to the Xie family." You were young at the time and didn't know how they bullied us. ”

"Second sister, as soon as I saw that dwarf winter melon talking domineeringly, my sister knew that they had been bullying us. They just wanted to have more free labor for us. Dragon Boat Festival said.

"Then you're also-" Erya couldn't understand this third sister.

Now they only want a few pieces of meat, and if they quarrel with them over a few pieces of meat, they are afraid that they will hurt the peace. After all, we're not really on our own feet yet. I'm afraid that they are not greedy enough, and after asking for meat, they want to ask how I earned this money. Therefore, why don't you use a few pieces of meat to stabilize the Xie family's heart, and say that in the future, we will personally deliver the delicious food to the door every other day, so that they don't have to come over by themselves and take a look, wouldn't it be better? "The Dragon Boat Festival is the truth, and Erya has to be convinced.

When the Dragon Boat Festival was spoken, it was relaxed, but there was no score in my heart. It was easy to earn some silver by relying on the countless honeysuckles behind the mountain, but it was spread by others, and it also reached the ears of the Xie family. Can these pieces of meat stop the Xie family's greed? In case they go to find out how the silver came from during the Dragon Boat Festival, can the honeysuckle field still be hidden?

In the afternoon, the Dragon Boat Festival was in the firewood room, feeding the green-headed silkworms. The silkworm has slowly turned yellow and is no longer malnourished. Xie Ling came over and took them all back to the "big army".

"Dragon Boat Festival, my mother is going to Xie's house to deliver meat, you stay at home." Xie Ling has changed into a new twist dress.

said that it was a new dress, but it was also patched with the old one, but this was the first time I saw Xie Ling wear it during the Dragon Boat Festival. Xie Ling is very good at color matching, a green silk hair is tied in a big tuanyue bun behind his head, a broken copper hairpin, and the skirt is matched with crimson yellow, but it is washed a little gray.

"Mother, I'm going too." Dragon Boat Festival muttered next to Xie Ling's shoulder.

Xie Ling put two pieces of fine meat in the basket, covered them with a piece of flower cloth, pointed his finger at the head of the Dragon Boat Festival and said, "You love to join in the fun, you have to follow everywhere." ”

"Mother, I also want to see you during the Dragon Boat Festival."

"It's okay if you want to go, but you can't talk without your mother's permission. If you don't promise your mother, I won't take you over. Xie Ling said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, according to my mother's kiss." Dragon Boat Festival said coquettishly, Xie Ling was afraid that she would say the wrong thing and offend people.

As mentioned earlier, the Xie family was originally a big clan in the village and monopolized the sericulture business, but as the business became bigger and bigger, and the wealth was abundant, so they moved to the town, and the only one left was a relative of the Xie family's side branch, planting mulberry and raising silkworms for the town's own family, and doing the most basic work.

Although Mrs. Xie is a distant relative of the Xie family in the town, she is also surnamed Xie, and the family left her several ancestral houses. She gave birth to a son and a daughter, and her husband died early, which can be regarded as a person who raised a pair of children. The daughter married early to a foreign family in the town as a steproom, and she usually doesn't come to see it often. Mrs. Xie doted on her son the most, even to the point of doting, so that this son had ** gambling, but lost Mrs. Xie's house to only one room, Mrs. Xie easily helped her son pay off his gambling debts, and as a result, he became a poor person from a small rich family. After that, his son Xie Yun is old and is going to get married, because his family background is not good, he has to marry a woman named Huang Tian'er from the same village. Although this Huang Tian'er looks ordinary, and is short and fat, she is a capable mother, on weekdays, in addition to helping her mother-in-law raise silkworms, she also picks the door tightly, a silver province, but also runs this family well.

It's just that Mrs. Xie is old and wants someone to take care of her, but her son can't take care of people, so she happened to meet the helpless Xie Ling, so she recognized her as her goddaughter. Mrs. Xie also personally set up a table and an altar for Xie Ling, and held a ceremony to worship her mother in front of the whole village. Just want to be old and have a daughter to take care of her.

"Dragon Boat Festival, the front is it. Once inside, don't talk nonsense. You have to remember. Xie Ling told again and again.

Looking up at the Dragon Boat Festival, the house where Mrs. Xie lived was far away from her home, with white bricks and black tiles, three big houses and a large courtyard. The cries of chickens and ducks came from the yard. The Dragon Boat Festival counted it, and there were a total of ten chickens and five ducks.

Huang Tianer is sprinkling millet for chickens and ducks to eat with a dustpan. Seeing Xie Ling and the Dragon Boat Festival coming in, he squinted his eyes and tilted his head, and said very impolitely: "Mother is in the house, you can go in." ”

During the Dragon Boat Festival, I saw two lime jars on the ground, which were full of silkworm corpses, and they stink. I thought to myself, no wonder Mrs. Xie has been in a difficult situation recently, it turns out that a lot of silkworms have died.

Mrs. Xie was wearing a dark blue gown, her round hair was pulled up in a high bun, she was neat and neat, and she was calculating something with an abacus in her hand.
