Chapter 63: The True Form Is Revealed
Seeing his daughter-in-law crying, Xiaoshan rubbed his ears and explained, "Daughter-in-law, we really didn't give it to others, we really accidentally fell into the river when crossing the bridge and lost the money." ”
As soon as he said this, Shi Shi's mother howled even more, crying and pointing at him and scolding, "You are such a big person who crosses a bridge, how can you fall, then you can't fall, you have to fall into the river, now that the money is gone, why do you call Shi to see a doctor." ”
Xiaoshan was scolded and lowered his head in shame, stunned and speechless, at this time the child held by the old woman cried, and the old woman patted his back anxiously, "What's wrong with the stone?" Don't cry, don't cry, aren't you hungry? ”
Saying that, she looked at Xiuniang expectantly, "Yongbai daughter-in-law, he is making such a fuss, we haven't eaten yet, see if you can pack some food for the stone to eat." ”
Regardless of whether he has any opinions on adults or not, he still can't be ruthless with the child, so he said to the eldest girl, "Go and fill a bowl of rice for Xiaoshi." ”
The eldest girl answered, walked quickly into the kitchen, and soon walked in with a bowl of rice.
The old woman had already sat in the place where Daddy Han was supposed to be sitting with the little stone in her arms, and the daughter-in-law of Xiaoshan, who was sitting on the ground crying, also got up and was standing at the table with Xiaoshan, and if they wanted to, they could sit down at any time.
Seeing that the eldest girl really only brought a bowl of rice in, the faces of the little mountain daughter-in-law and the old woman were a little heavy, and when the eldest girl put down the bowl and saw what it was, the faces of the two of them were even lowered.
"What's brown rice?"
Xiuniang looked at the little mountain daughter-in-law a little inexplicably, "What do we eat if we don't eat brown rice?" ”
Xiaoshan's daughter-in-law didn't know how to answer, so she had to glare at her man.
Xiaoshan, who was glared at by his daughter-in-law, rubbed his hands and looked at Xiuniang with a flattering expression, "Sister-in-law, this baby is uncomfortable, he has no appetite, he is afraid that he will not be able to eat brown rice, see if you can fill him with a bowl of white rice." ”
A sneer flashed in Han Chuxue's lowered eyes, and sure enough, it was so.
Xiuniang didn't expect this stubble before, but now that Xiaoshan mentioned it, remembering what the little girl said before, she suddenly looked at Xiaoshan with a strange look.
Xiaoshan was a little furious by her, and said with a forced smile, "Sister-in-law, why do you look at us like this, don't worry, we adults can eat anything, I just want Xiaoshi to eat something." ”
The implication is that their family has to eat here.
Erzhu couldn't help but be a little angry, "Uncle Xiaoshan, if you want to eat white rice, you're late, we just finished eating white rice, and now we only have brown rice." ”
Half a liter of white rice is not enough to eat for so many people in the Han family, so Xiuniang deliberately used a pot to cook some brown rice.
The reason why I didn't eat it at the beginning was because Grandpa Han came, if he knew that white rice was not enough, he would never be willing to eat it with his temperament, and secondly, he had eaten so many meals together, Xiuniang They also understood, if they wanted to open a small stove for Han Chuxue to eat alone, this baby would definitely not eat it, so the family ate white rice, and then went to fill the brown rice to eat after eating enough, so now the Han family is really only left with brown rice and a small half pot of wild vegetable soup.
It's just that Xiaoshan doesn't know that there is a cold grandfather in the room, and he doesn't know Han Chuxue's temperament, and Zhao Xiuniang and Han Daddy's temperament will never eat all the good things first, since the brown rice is not finished, the white rice must still be there.
And it's not just Xiaoshan who thinks like this, his daughter-in-law and his wife also think so, after all, it is a common habit of the peasant family to eat the bad food first and then eat good things slowly, so both of them suspect that Xiuniang is reluctant to give them white rice.
So the little mountain daughter-in-law slapped her thigh and sat on the ground again and howled.
"It's a sin, our family is reluctant to eat and borrow food from others, but people use it with delicious food and drink, and our family can't even let the baby eat good."
Xiaoshan's mother also began to wipe her eyes, "Our poor grandson, I haven't eaten such a mouthful of white rice." ”
The little baby who was holding her saw that her mother and milk were crying, and she also cried, "We want to eat white rice, we want to eat white rice." ”
Looking at this family, Xiuniang only felt a little helpless and a little angry.
Although she is softer, she is not stupid, and the little girl has been reminded a few times, and then look at the current style of Xiaoshan's family, what else does she not understand, people are not willing to just pretend to be a bowl of rice and leave, but bring the whole family to eat together.
"The white rice has been eaten, and now there is only this bowl of brown rice, Xiaoshi, you can eat it if you like, if you don't eat it, go home and eat it."
Because she was angry in her heart, Xiuniang's tone became much softer, and she even directly issued an eviction order.
Xiaoshan was stunned, obviously a little surprised by Xiuniang's attitude, and his eyes couldn't help but glance at the door next to him, why didn't my brother make a sound? Could it be that others are not there, so this Xiuniang dares to talk to her son like this?
Xiuniang because she usually has a soft temperament and listens to Han Yongbai's words very much, so she thinks that she can hold the hill of Han Daddy's secretly doesn't really take her in her eyes, and a sister-in-law is also called to Han Daddy, and now he is smart to guess that Han Daddy is not at home, so Xiuniang dares to treat her family like this, and her temper also comes up.
"Sister-in-law, he is a little big baby, and now his body is uncomfortable, why do you have to compete with him as an adult? My sister-in-law doesn't like the stone to eat here, so let's just don't eat, but didn't my brother say before that I asked my sister-in-law to give us the money to bring the stone to see the doctor, sister-in-law, you should give us the money now. ”
Looking at the hand that was clearly spread out in front of her, Xiuniang was really a little confused, angry and puzzled, "All the money was taken to return to the villagers, where did our family get the money?" ”
Xiaoshan changed his honest appearance in front of Daddy Han, and smiled a little skinnyly, "Sister-in-law, we can hear Erzhu say it clearly before, your wild boar was sold for 100 wen, and the villagers were returned for 80 wen, isn't there still 20 wen left, this money is enough for us to take stones to see the doctor." ”
At this time, his daughter-in-law also got up from the ground, stood beside him and pouted her face and said, "Sister-in-law, you better hurry up and give us the money, otherwise you will miss the time to see the doctor, and you will not be able to explain to your eldest brother." ”
Xiuniang was so angry, "What is the relationship between your stone and our Yongbai?" ”
"Yo, pillar, you can't say that." Xiaoshan's mother stood up with her grandson in her arms, "Our Xiaoshan and your Yongbai are closer than brothers, and the stone is like his own nephew, and it is also appropriate for the uncle to give some money to the nephew to see the doctor." ”
"You, you ......" Xiuniang's body was not good, and she was so angry with them that she gasped directly.
