Chapter 69: Gossip
"Sister-in-law, what do you see?" The person who spoke was still busy with his needlework in his hands with his head down! The voice is soft and weak, and it is very comfortable to listen to!
The woman is Li Amber's daughter-in-law, Yao Ruolan, as her name suggests, she is indeed like an orchid, without a little vulgarity of a peasant woman, and she speaks softly, as if she will never lose her temper with someone!
After Yao married Li Anbai, he had two sons and two daughters, namely Li Li, Li Shan, Li Yuran, and Li Yucan; Li Li and Li Shan are already married, Li Yuran and Li Yucan have also become young men, and when they reached the age of marrying, when they came in just now, they saw a few people following the elders!
The Li family is a very harmonious family, including Li Qingfeng's family, although the Liang family speaks ugly, but compared to other families in the village who make trouble all day long, the atmosphere at home is still enviable, although the grandchildren are a little squeamish, but they are not unreasonable, and they are generally good!
"Hey, you don't know, just now the second uncle came over and gave my mother ten taels of silver, I saw it with my own eyes!" Liang relayed it to Yao in an exaggerated voice!
"Hey, I just said that we can't always let us work for nothing, two days ago I was still chattering, and I told the head that the second uncle was not good, but now that the second uncle sent it over, I think I misunderstood the second uncle!" Although Liang complained in advance, he would feel embarrassed again!
"Those are all men's things, I don't understand, since the second uncle gave it, we have to help!" Yao's is a woman with traditional education, married and obeyed her husband, and implemented the male protagonist outside and the female protagonist thoroughly, she is not like the Liang family, she wants to take care of everything, and never asks about external things, only guards her own one-acre and three-point field, honors her in-laws, and takes care of her husband and children!
I didn't stop the clothes I was sewing when I wasn't chatting, and I didn't usually like to go out, so I did needlework in my room when I had nothing to do, and I was a person with a weak sense of presence at home!
"Hey, I'm also anxious for the children, you see that my family is young, not married, the others are married, and now there are no children, but after you see, there are more children, not only do you have to raise children, but there is not enough place to live, I am not also planning for the family! The second uncle's family is having a better time, so I think he should help us! ”
It is understandable for Liang to think so, the eldest daughter Li Yueer is married, not to mention, the eldest son Li Yusheng has been married for two years, and the daughter-in-law Lin Caiqing is seven months pregnant, and she is about to give birth, Li Yuhao has been married for a year, and the daughter-in-law Feng Lamei has just found out that she is pregnant, and the peasant family will think that there are capable relatives in the family, and they should always pull some, modern rural areas have this concept!
The Liang family was chattering there, talking about his daughter-in-law, talking about his mother's family, and thinking about how much silver he had in the family, and when his mouth was not idle!
Yao Shi was listening silently, and from time to time she nodded or nodded in response, she was originally a person who didn't talk much, and she basically didn't express any opinions on what Liang said, just as a loyal listener!
Liang knows her character and does not embarrass her. Just talking about yourself!
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?" As soon as he came back from outside, he heard Liang's voice coming from Li Anbai's house, and Zhu couldn't help but come to join in the fun!
Zhu is the wife of Li Qingfeng's youngest son Li Annuo, and has two daughters and a son, his son Li Yupeng is the oldest, thirteen years old this year, two daughters Li Liuer is eleven years old, Li Laner is nine years old, and the personality is the most compatible with Liang's, is lively and gossipy, no, as soon as I heard that Liang was chatting with Yao, I didn't wait for anyone to call, and I came over!
"Didn't you just say that the second uncle is here!" Liang replied.
"What is the second uncle doing here?" The Zhu family really couldn't think of what would happen to Li Qingshan, who didn't come home much!
"The second uncle is here to deliver money!" The Liang family deliberately sold the guanzi and let the Zhu family guess what was going on!
"Send money? What money to send? Zhu didn't react, he was still confused!
"Oh, I see, didn't you let them help and send them over!" After a while, the Zhu family realized that she and the Liang family complained to each other two days ago, saying that the second uncle always used his own people for nothing and didn't give any benefits!
"That's right, I gave ten taels!" Liang's ostentatious tone!
"So much?" I don't blame the Zhu family for being surprised, and I don't blame the Liang family, who was originally angry, smiled in the blink of an eye, and his attitude turned 180 degrees!
If a few strong laborers in the family go to work, they will earn at most one or two taels of silver after working hard for so many days, and Li Qingshan has sent ten taels is already a lot!
"What do you think my mother will do with this money?" Since the Zhu family, the Liang family has changed the object of the chat to the Zhu family, after all, the Yao family really will not echo her, let her have a good chat!
"That's right! Will you give us some! Zhu and Liang looked at each other and reached a consensus!
Although the family has been doing well recently, and this year is much better than in previous years, but the concubines don't have any money in their hands, the family is Miao's dang, except for the concubines who can take the money they earn, the money earned by the men has to be handed over!
So Liang and Zhu tried their best to save their own money, but neither of them was a material for fine work, and they didn't have as good embroiderers as Yao's, so both of them had empty pockets, and the richest one was Yao's, who would sell some handkerchiefs and purses every ten days, and then buy some needlework and thread, and sew Xiuxiu in the house if they had nothing to do, and they could save a hundred and ten wen a month, which made Liang and Zhu envious and jealous!
No, the two of them started the idea of today's ten taels of silver!
"I saw that the Lin family on the front street wore a silver hairpin, and the flowers on it were carved like they were, and I was really a few years younger when I brought them, I was the same age as her, look at people, look at me, alas!" Sighing while talking, Liang is talking about Li Dagui's daughter-in-law.
Since the days have been better, the living standard of Li Dagui's family has risen sharply, Li Dagui is not stingy, and it is still very casual to buy a hairpin for his daughter-in-law, so he took advantage of the effort to go to the town to give Lin a hairpin, Lin said that it was a waste of money, but his mouth couldn't close with a smile! Now I have to wear it every day when I go out, and I envy a bunch of people!
Liang is one of them!
"The clothes are all old, and I have mended them again and again, when can I make a new one!" The Zhu family has long wanted to make new clothes, but they don't have the money!
Although the two of them are not young, the Liang family will soon have a grandson or granddaughter, but women's love for beauty is regardless of age, and comparison will always exist, whether it is a noble lady in Beijing or a woman in a mountain village, it has been indispensable since ancient times!
"Why don't you mention it tomorrow?" For the sake of clothes and jewelry, the two secretly decided to ask and try it tomorrow!
I'm really sorry, I still have to go to class, I don't have so much time to code words every day, don't be too little!
