Chapter 36: To each his own word

Yuehua and Chen Po came out of Mrs. Ning together, and Chen Po suddenly patted her on the shoulder and said, "You go to my place to sit down in the evening, and I will make a dime of wine, and we will sit down and have a good meal." Yuehua looked at Chen Po's appearance, knowing that she was going to talk to herself, and said with a smile: "It's okay." ”

Yuehua has been to Chen's mother's house two or three times, and she has never seen Chen's daughter-in-law, and Yuehua followed Chen's mother-in-law to the backyard to find her daughter-in-law before seeing her for the first time.

Chen's daughter-in-law put the military students on a bamboo bed, which was surrounded by a half-person-high railing, and the children would not fall out when they played in it, and she held a hoe to hoe the ground.

She wore only a white coarse cloth blouse and gray-blue homespun trousers, a pair of straw sandals on her feet, no skirt for the convenience of her work, slightly fat, her hair was slightly dry and yellow, her hair was coiled into a bun wrapped in an earthy yellow turban, and a thick silver hairpin was inserted.

She heard the human voice, turned around, her facial features were smooth, her appearance was thoughtful, her hands and feet were rough, maybe because of her work, her face looked healthy and ruddy, and she looked like a standard peasant woman, she saw someone come and smiled: "Mother, I didn't know if you would come back sooner or later." ”

Chen Po frowned, picked up her grandson, stuffed the rice candy she had just bought at the gate of the barracks to her grandson, and called out to her daughter-in-law: "Go to the mouth to make a corner of wine, clean up a table of dishes, I want to invite someone to eat wine." The daughter-in-law seemed to be very afraid of Mrs. Chen, so she hurriedly threw down her hoe, took off her skirt and tied it on the railing where she dried clothes in the garden.

"My daughter-in-law will only bury her head in work, and she can't get on the stage, and she has me inside and outside the house, and she doesn't know where I went...... What should these two women do, I believe that with this mother-in-law, hunger will not starve to death, I am afraid that the military students will not be able to produce after following this mother-in-law. ”

"There is a diligent and capable daughter-in-law who no one else can hope for, I see that you have a strong body and bones, and you will definitely live a long life."

Yuehua looked at Chen Po's courtyard.

Chen Po's yard is not big, the backyard is against the mountain, the fence around the yard is still planted with pumpkins, pumpkin vines climb on the fence, a few pounds of heavy carp can be seen swimming back and forth in the small pool, and the pond is still driving grape trellises, and the grapes have not yet grown, and they look very good. The chicken coop and duck coop are cleaned cleanly, the chicken manure and duck manure are piled up in the corner, clean and neat, and a few narrow vegetable fields have been opened up on the gentle slope of the back mountain, Yuehua has been abducted into the palace since childhood, and I don't know the vegetables in the field, I only recognize one of them planted with buds, and the other few don't know, but the growth is very good, and it is obviously very careful.

"I hope so! My daughter-in-law has nothing to say except for Mu Ne. Chen Po smiled: "People! How can there be perfection, it is really the kind of person who has many ideas and will not be so diligent and honest, and it is impossible to keep it if he remarries early. At the beginning, the family was so difficult that even her mother's family came, and she still refused to leave, and she must guard my dead son. ”

"You're a man who understands." Yuehua said with a smile.

When Yuehua was in the palace before, she heard that it was difficult to be someone's daughter-in-law, and she couldn't eat on the table as a daughter-in-law, and the dishes were on the table, honoring her father-in-law and mother-in-law, and after serving her husband, children and sister-in-law, she hid alone on the edge of the stove and pulled two mouthfuls of food, and then went up and removed the table after they finished eating.

This Chen Po's daughter-in-law didn't dare to serve the meal after cooking, so she took a bowl of rice by herself, and was about to serve the rice bowl, and was stopped by Yuehua when she went to the kitchen with her son in her arms.

I only heard Yuehua smile and said: "I am familiar with Aunt Chen, I am not an outsider, you don't have to eat at the table, there is no food in the kitchen, you have worked so hard to make a table of food, so you can eat two bites by yourself." Chen Po's daughter-in-law was very afraid that Chen Po would take a look at Chen Po and didn't dare to speak, Chen Po smiled and said, "You can sit here today, you look like I can't do it for you." ”

Chen Po's daughter-in-law sat down at this time, she still didn't dare to sit, a chair only sat for less than a third, the right buttocks were not on the stool, the right hand was still holding the rice bowl, the left buttocks supported the strength of the whole body, and the child was still sitting on the left thigh, and I didn't know if she was so comfortable.

She scooped some soup and vegetables with a wooden spoon and fed the child, the child always moved around when she sat on her, and she had to put down the spoon from time to time and pull the child with her other hand, so that she could easily feed the child and put the child on the bamboo bed surrounded by a fence.

When she ate by herself, she was more careful, sitting sideways in the corner, bala rice, and two chopsticks on the dish in front of her, Yuehua clearly saw that the dish in front of her was just a plate of cold sweet potato vines.

Yuehua thought to herself, if she gets married in the future, she is afraid that she will be like this if she has a mother-in-law.

This world is too bad for women, you don't go out, your mother doesn't dislike you for being a money loser who drags oil bottles, and you can be better for you, marrying someone is like mud, only a daughter-in-law who has been boiling for many years can have a good life.

Yuehua reached out and grabbed a chopstick pig ear and put it in her bowl: "I think this is good, you eat two bites." "Yuehua is not a person with a flood of sympathy, her life is not as good as Chen's daughter-in-law, she purely thinks that eating at one table, it makes no sense for you to eat vines and I eat meat, why can't I eat the dishes I cook!

Mrs. Chen's daughter-in-law hurriedly caught it, and kept saying, "You eat!" Do you eat...... I'll just eat mine. ”

Chen Po only smiled when she saw it in her eyes.

Chen Po's daughter-in-law hurriedly ate and left, only Yuehua and Chen Po were left on the dinner table, Chen Po poured a glass of wine for Yuehua and said with a smile: "I see that you didn't drink much just now, this is like clear water, it is not in the way, if you don't drink, you will have a few drinks with your wife." ”

"Yes, yes, but I used to drink less in the palace, the amount of alcohol was very bad, I got drunk after eating two glasses, and I didn't dare to drink more, if you want to drink, I can accompany you, but I'm afraid I can't accompany you."

Yuehua actually drinks a lot of wine, she refuses to drink because she drinks on her face, and after only a few glasses, her face is red like a Guan Gong, which hinders the view, and there are those eunuchs in the palace who are not right-minded in the palace who like to pour palace maid wine, and when you get drunk, up and down, Yuehua declares that she will not drink, never drink more, and gradually develop a habit.

"I don't drink on weekdays, I only drink two drinks once in a while, and it doesn't get in the way."

After three glasses of wine, I was good at talking about things, but I heard Chen Po say: "You also saw it today, don't mind." ”

Yuehua pondered: "Everyone has their own life, we are born poor people have to earn their own lives, better than others to live hard, I was still a little lucky, thinking that I can pick up some good luck and live a good life here, is I too impetuous, or I have to be down-to-earth." ”

Mrs. Chen didn't drink well, she was a little drunk, she probably didn't listen to what Yuehua was saying at all, she just heard her say: "Mrs. Ning's temper is not good, you have to take care of it, but she is a person who values friendship."

Let me tell you something from my heart, my wife has hands, feet and brains, why should I follow her!

I remember the winter of the year when the military student was born, just after the war, most of the grain in the field was destroyed, and there was no food to eat in the winter, and the whole family starved for a day, and I couldn't let the blood of the Chen family starve to death if I died, how could I be worthy of the Chen family.

My mother's family is in the mountains of Suxian County, and I picked a basket with my two girls, went to the mountains, and every household knocked on the door one by one to beg.

In the mountains, they are all related to each other, people see that my husband has died, and now my son is also dead, pity me, everyone has nothing to eat, each family still gives me a big pumpkin, a gourd scoop of dried pumpkin strips, begging for a day's food, one person picked a load of pumpkins back, relying on this for a winter, and was also born in the winter that year.

Later, I wondered what if I couldn't survive that winter!

I thought at the time, I want to support this family, I used to dig trenches with Mrs. Ning's troops during the war, and went to Mrs. Ning to ask her to find me something to do, and Mrs. Ning gave me some money to supplement the family, and life was better in the past two years.

Let me tell you, I am old, unlike you who think long-term, just want the family to be happy, and the grandson grows up to be a daughter-in-law.

Needless to say, you also know that Mrs. Ning is not very good-tempered, and the future with her is not broad, but she is Mrs. Duwei in the end, and it is impossible not to return to Duwei's Mansion for the rest of her life, and she will definitely be close when the time comes.

She is a solid person, as long as you follow the **** well, she will not treat you badly. I won't tell you that my daughter Erniuzi married a house, and she was the matchmaker. Otherwise, people wouldn't have taken a fancy to my daughter.

Let me tell you, what fame and fortune are all false, the old woman has lived a lot of age, and what she holds in her hand is real, you endure Mrs. Ning's temper, she is solid, as long as you follow her well, your life will not be bad at that time.

You just listen to what she says, don't care, I don't think you're in a good mood when you leave, and I tell you that when you reach my age, it's not a problem. ”

In fact, today's attitude of Mrs. Ning Yuehua was not angry at all, she didn't go to her heart at all, the people she encountered in the palace were much more arrogant than her, and she was angry every time she had a bad attitude towards others.

She was depressed that according to the current form, the future may be very difficult, and it is estimated that there is still a long way to go in the future.

However, Chen Po was quite grateful to be able to say these words, and Yuehua felt that it was good for a person like Chen Po to be sleek and transparent with Mrs. Ning's strong and arrogant temper.
