The surplus grain came back at noon, although the time was short, but the effect was remarkable, and he hunted four hares in the morning, and he said modestly: "The archery is not accurate, only four were hunted." ”

Lu Xiaoyi praised with a smile, and hurriedly brought out the hot meal, until he was full and his body warmed up, and then he said that his great-grandmother was seriously ill.

"Let's go, let's take a look now."

"Brother Liang, let's bring some money, my great-grandmother has been sick for the past two years, and what the big house needs most now should be money." Lu Xiaoyi discussed with Yu Liang.

Yu Liang nodded, and Lu Xiaoyi took five taels of silver and put it on the belt.

The two went down to the bottom of the mountain and went back to their parents' house first, and their mother's family was there.

Lu Xiaoyi asked, "Mother, is my great-grandmother better?" ”

Yulan frowned and said worriedly: "This time it's not like the previous times." ”

Lu Zhong said: "Without further ado, I'll take you two to see it." ”

Magnolia put on the thick cotton jacket, "I'll go too." ”

Lu Xiaoyi said: "Mother, I have discussed with Brother Liang, my great-grandmother's medicine money and future affairs must have cost a lot, and now that Xiao Bing's daughter-in-law is in charge, I want to send some silver money over, I can help a handful, what do you think?" ”

Yulan sighed, "Our mother and daughter want to go together, I only sent five taels of silver in the morning, you don't need to send more, just send two taels, you and Liangzi are new families, and two taels of silver are already very decent." ”

Lu Xiaoyi was still hesitating, and Lu Zhong said: "Listen to your mother, just send two taels." After speaking, he took the lead and walked out, Yu Liang, Xiao Yi and Yulan followed, Xiao Ding was not feeling well, and Yulan let her stay in the warm house.

When the group arrived at the big room, they heard the sound of reading in the direction of the bookstore. Summer and winter, the students are bitter, and the husband is also bitter, especially when Mrs. Lu is seriously ill, Lu Fuzeng still has not suspended classes.

Yulan said: "Your uncle and grandfather are very disciplined people, and they are filial piety in front of the old lady's kang, and they are not allowed to suspend classes in the study house." ”

As he was talking, Bingyu's daughter-in-law came from the backyard with a bowl of potion in her hand, and white smoke was wafting from the bowl. See the people who came. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and after greeting him warmly, he invited people in.

The doors and windows of Mrs. Lu's bedroom were closed, and the room was filled with a strong smell of herbs. All the people in the big house were guarding in front of the kang. A sad face.

Bingyu's daughter-in-law brought the medicine bowl to the kang. whispered, "The medicine is here." ”

Bingyu helped Mrs. Lu up, and Bingyu's daughter-in-law gently blew it cool one spoonful at a time, and fed Mrs. Lu to drink.

Mrs. Lu finished drinking the medicine. Raising his eyes slightly, he glanced at everyone in the house, and found that there was more Xiao Yi and surplus food, raised his hand and pointed at them, and muttered, "You two live a good life." ”

Lu Xiaoyi's eyes were sour, and he nodded while dripping tears.

Mrs. Lu felt tired, and said: "There are a lot of people, look at the tiredness, disperse, don't stay here." ”

Lu Shouzeng obeyed Mrs. Lu's orders and beckoned his children and grandchildren to withdraw from the bedroom, but Jiluo did not retreat, still guarding the old lady's kangtou.

Lu Shouzeng went to the study house, Lu Si, Bingyu, Lu Zhong and Yu Liang went to the hall, and Bingyu's daughter-in-law took Yulan and Xiaoyi to the next small hall to sit down.

Lu Xiaoyi hasn't seen Bingyu's daughter-in-law for a few days, her big apricot eyes are still so delicate, but she is extremely spicy in her work, listening to Yulan, Mrs. Lu and Lu Si's daughter-in-law are now tasting the power of Bingyu's daughter-in-law, and they are not as arrogant as before.

Yulan said: "Little Daughter-in-law, if you need help, just squeak, uncle and aunt will definitely try their best to help you." ”

Bingyu's daughter-in-law smiled lightly: "Aunt Lao is concerned, if there is a need in the future, I will definitely open my mouth to my aunt." ”

Lu Xiaoyi handed the money bag to Bingyu's daughter-in-law, "This is a little bit of heart between me and Brother Liang, my brother-in-law will accept it, now my great-grandmother is seriously ill, and I have to use silver inside and out." ”

Bingyu's daughter-in-law did not postpone it, and took it generously, "I keep my sister's love in my heart, and I will wait for this period to get through, and then slowly return it to you." ”

Yulan said angrily: "I only persuaded you in the morning, and now you talk about repaying the silver, why are you so stubborn." ”

Bingyu's daughter-in-law smiled, "Auntie, your family's silver is not blown by the wind, how can I be so arrogant and use it in the future, let's be honest, there is still some money at home now, but the family has to eat, drink and study, and all kinds of expenses have increased at the end of the year, and my great-grandmother can't live without medicine, and no matter how much money there is in the family, it can't compete with the big medicine jar at the mouth!" ”

He also said: "Actually, the money sent by my aunt and sister is prepared for my husband, if my great-grandmother is well, my husband will have to spend a lot of money to study in the county, if my great-grandmother dies, my husband will keep filial piety at home, and the money for studying in the county will be saved for the time being, and I will return your silver." ”

Yulan heard that Bingyu's daughter-in-law had arranged it, and she no longer forced her, and said with a smile: "Okay, just do as you say, as long as you don't share politely with us in the future." ”

The three of them chatted for a while longer, until Lu Zhong and Yu Liang said goodbye.

Several people returned to their homes together, Xiao Ding was quietly embroidering, and Xiao Rui was sitting in the corner of the kang playing a small abacus.

Yulan pulled Xiaoyi to sit down, "Don't worry about going back, stay and eat lunch together!" ”

Lu Xiaoyi nodded hurriedly, "I haven't come back for a long time to eat and drink, I have to eat and drink today." ”

Yulan glanced at her, "Big eyes and small belly, can you finish boiling a pot?" ”

"I'll walk around if I can't finish eating!" Lu Xiaoyi began to make trouble again, and Yulan couldn't close her mouth with a smile.

Xiao Ding, who was doing embroidery work on the side, said: "Sister, just since you get married, my mother's laughter is less." ”

Lu Xiaoyi said to Yulan proudly: "Did you hear it, you didn't cherish it before you got married, now you know my good!" ”

Xiao Rui, who was playing with the abacus on the side, looked up and said, "Thick face!" Thick face! ”

Lu Xiaoyi gritted his teeth and made a gesture to scratch him, Xiaorui hurriedly said to Yu Liang: "Brother-in-law, don't care?" ”

Yu Liang smiled: "Tube! ”

Just smiled and said that he was in charge, and there was no actual action of discipline, Xiao Rui's eyes narrowed, and he immediately ran to Yulan's side, coquettishly begging for protection.

Yulan loves her eldest daughter and loves her child, and she reprimanded Xiaoyi a few words with a fake, and Lu Xiaoyi pretended to be pitiful with a bitter face.

Xiao Rui saw through their clumsy acting skills, and turned to the person he thought was the most trustworthy, "Dad, hug." ”

Lu Zhong loves his children even more. smiled and hugged Xiao Rui over, and said to Yu Liang: "Come with me to the West Courtyard to sit." ”

When he arrived at the door, Xiao Rui said to the woman in the house: "Nag! Nag! ”

Lu Zhong laughed, "Good son, you can hear it too!" ”

Yulan scolded with a smile: "Hurry up and take it away, the little fart cub is annoying!" ”

Lu Xiaoyi said with a smile: "Mother, Xiaorui said that you nagged!" ”

Xiao Ding sneered, "You two that Xiao Rui said." ”

Lu Xiaoyi pursed her lips and leaned over to Xiaoding to see her embroidering a pair of butterflies. Go without saying. This is also embroidering a dowry, Xiao Ding will be fourteen years old, and it is also a good year to say goodbye.

Lu Xiaoyi was bad and said deliberately: "Mother." Recently, our threshold is good, right? ”

Magnolia was puzzled. I also deliberately looked in the direction of the threshold. "Okay? What's wrong? ”

Lu Xiaoyi laughed, "Our Xiaoding is so good-looking, I'm worried." The people who mentioned the relatives stepped on the threshold of our house! ”

Xiao Ding shyly dropped the embroidery work in his hand. Scratch the place where Lu Xiaoyi's body has the most itchy flesh.

Yulan said: "If it's broken, I'll find Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Qin to lose money, these two people run the most diligently, and they have to come once at both ends of three days, and we will drink a few jars of tea alone." ”

Lu Xiaoyi had a good impression of Mrs. Zhang, but she had a bad impression of the green-skinned frog Mrs. Qin, and said to Yulan: "Mother, next time the surname Qin comes, don't let her into the house." ”

"Why are you still so straight, you are a matchmaker, you run to the east and the west all day long, if I offend her, I will provoke her to talk nonsense everywhere, and it is not worth it to say that our Xiaoding's reputation is bad!" Speaking of this, Yulan said lightly: "Her kind of mother-in-law can be discarded with just a few cups of tea." ”

Mrs. Lu pushed the door and lifted the curtain to come in, "Which mother-in-law did you just say can be sent away with tea?" ”

Yulan smiled: "I'm talking about the matchmaker in the village." ”

Mrs. Lu has a bad impression of the two matchmakers in the village, if she has to divide them, she hates Qin matchmakers even more, although Mrs. Lu has quarreled with Mrs. Zhang and fought, but Mrs. Zhang is upright, not like the bewitching woman with hooks in her eyes like Mrs. Qin.

Mrs. Lu said: "Next time the person surnamed Qin comes, I'll clean her up, phew!" Sao woman, I have long seen that she is not pleasing to the eye. ”

Lu Xiaoyi said: "Grandmother, don't be impulsive! ”

Yulan said the relationship again, and Mrs. Lu squinted her eyes and thought about it, "Okay, I'll be patient for the time being, and when Xiaoding's family affairs are certain, I'll find out if the sassy woman is not, and quarrel with her." ”

Regarding Lu Pozi's behavior of seeking trouble, Lu Xiaoyi couldn't cry or laugh, and persuaded: "Grandmother, you are not young, why bother to be angry with that green woman, it is better to hug the golden grandson at home with peace of mind!" ”

"Jin Sun wants to hug, and the fight has to quarrel, you don't care, I have been a grudge with that sao woman for many years, if I don't quarrel, I will get sick sooner or later."

Lu Xiaoyi looked at Yulan, Yulan smiled helplessly, Lu Xiaoyi thought: Forget it, she wants to quarrel with her, she has quarreled with many people in the village, and no one has made an eternal enmity with her, sometimes others give her a roasted sweet potato, sometimes she gives others a crispy cucumber, and the enmity is over.

Mrs. Lu glanced at Xiao Ding and said to Yulan: "Xiao Ding is not Xiao Yi, your eyes are bright." ”

Yulan was stunned by Mrs. Lu's sudden words, thinking of what she had just said about the matchmaker, she quickly understood, and said to Mrs. Lu with a smile: "Mother, I understand." ”

Lu Xiaoyi didn't understand, "Grandmother, what do you mean?" ”

Mrs. Lu glanced at her, "You are as strong as a cow, you can live wherever you marry, but Xiaoding is different, she is a wicker-like person, she can't carry a basket on her shoulders, she marries into a family with little labor, she can't do endless work inside and out, can she withstand this body?" Therefore, I remind you to have a long snack, don't marry Xiaoding to those bitter people's families. ”

Not only Xiao Yi, but even Xiao Ding looked at Mrs. Lu in surprise.

Mrs. Lu was a little uncomfortable when she received the attention of her granddaughters, and she pouted: "The door is right, do you understand?" Our family's conditions are not bad, and we have to find a comparable family for Xiaoding. ”

Mrs. Lu was very happy to be able to say such a thing, and Yulan was very happy in her heart, and promised with a smile: "Mother, don't worry, I will keep it for Xiao Ding to find a good family with a good door." ”

Mrs. Lu saw that her opinion was adopted, and her daughter-in-law and granddaughter were even more impressed with her, and became more and more proud, "Also, don't look for those mothers-in-law and mother-in-law, it's better to find a straight person like me to get along with." ”

Yulan's face changed, and she finally smiled and nodded, with her own thoughts in her heart.

Lu Xiaoyi said bluntly: "Grandmother, it's good for you to be straightforward and fast-talking, but it's annoying to be patriarchal." ”

"What do you say? You repeat! Mrs. Lu yelled at Lu Xiaoyi angrily, spitting Xingzi splashed Lu Xiaoyi's face.

Lu Xiaoyi asked rhetorically while wiping: "This is what you call getting along?" ”

"You can't speak, why should I get along with you?" Mrs. Lu glanced at her, looking unhappy.

Lu Xiaoyi is not afraid of her, "I am also a rectum, and I also say it clearly if I have something to say, my grandmother's patriarchy is annoying." ”

Mrs. Lu exploded, and her emotions immediately became excited, "I'm patriarchal? When have I ever despised you granddaughters? Isn't it just a few more words of scolding you on weekdays? Isn't there something to stuff you with good food behind your back? When I met those grandmothers who smeared honey on their mouths and hid knives in their hearts, they didn't beat you or scold you, and they coaxed you to sell them if they gave you something to eat, hum! When you meet such a grandmother, cry you guys! ”

In such a comparison, Lu Pozi is indeed a bodhisattva.

Lu Xiaoyi said: "Grandmother wants to sell her granddaughter, why did my grandfather go, and my father and mother didn't come out to say a word?" And those seven aunts and eight aunts who break their mouths on weekdays don't stand up and say a word? Just let the grandmother sell her granddaughter? ”

Mrs. Lu sneered: "In the event of natural disasters and man-made disasters, selling children and daughters is also a last resort, if it is an ordinary time, people who can do such things, a litter of soft and confused eggs, by a mother-in-law as a blessing, deserve to be sold granddaughter, in my opinion, maybe I can live well away from this home, and the province is in that dog." The and stinking soft cowards live at home. ”

glanced at Xiaoyi Xiaoding again, and said proudly: "You haven't met such a mother-in-law, let's have fun!" ”

Lu Xiaoyi grinned, "I'm having fun." He asked again: "Grandmother, do you dare to sell me, Xiaoding and Xiaofeng?" ”

Mrs. Lu thought for a while and said honestly: "If I have this thought, your grandfather will beat me to death." After a pause, he said: "Your grandfather's family doesn't have a good stubble, although your aunt's family has no one to support her, but she dares to poke me with scissors." Speaking of which, Mrs. Lu was a little melancholy.

Lu Xiaoyi sneered, Xiao Ding also covered his mouth and laughed, Yulan glanced at them, and pointed at Lu Pozi Nunu, reminding them not to get too angry.

The melancholy Mrs. Lu heard the laughter of her granddaughters, especially Lu Xiaoyi, who laughed the most, stood up angrily, and pointed at Lu Xiaoyi and reprimanded: "White-eyed wolf, you are the biggest white-eyed wolf in our family." ”

"Grandmother, if I'm not mistaken, you once said that Xiao Geng is the biggest white-eyed wolf in our family, why did he become me again." Lu Xiaoyi deliberately provoked her.

Lu Pozi was speechless for a while, pulled Lu Xiaoyi closer, leaned into her ear and whispered a threat: "If you talk nonsense, return those two silver hairpins!" ”

How can there be a reason to give back the things that are sent, let alone the marriage for his granddaughter, Lu Xiaoyi shook his head and was not happy.

Mrs. Lu pursed her lips and said: "Take people's hands short, eat people's soft mouths, don't be so unpleasant when you talk and do things!" ”

Lu Xiaoyi laughed and said kindly: "My fault, my fault, you are the best grandmother, I am the most unpleasant granddaughter, grandmother forgive me a lot!" ”

Mrs. Lu glanced at her, "Na, I still say the same thing, it's best to get along with a person like me with a straight intestine, you can figure it out for yourself!" After speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and swaggered out the door. (To be continued.) )
