"I also know, but our family has invited someone to come back to do the work, and there are people waiting, if my father and mother want to invite someone and we refuse, I don't want to go, and I will let people gossip, although we have three brothers, and our father and mother should be responsible for us together, but the current situation, you have also seen, you know the situation in the third family, we must not be counted with him, the eldest brother's family is also worse than our family, I think my father and mother should not care so much about it." Erniu said.

After a pause, he spoke again: "Daughter-in-law, don't think about the past, I don't know how my father and mother are in our family, but after all, it is my own father, they are also old now, and the current environment in our family is also better, don't think about that, I think that my father-in-law and mother-in-law are also old, and tomorrow I will invite more people to come and work at my mother-in-law's house, okay?"

Huang listened to Erniu's words and said: "I don't want my mother's family, my sister-in-law is in charge of everything at home, and my sister-in-law can do it, and there are not many people in the family, so you don't need to invite someone, but you have time, you can go and see my father." ”

Huang thought for a while, and then said: "Child, father, I didn't say that I didn't want to ask my mother-in-law to do work for her before I quarreled with her, but it was my mother-in-law's attitude that made me feel a little uncomfortable, so I just said a few words, and I won't do it in the future." ”

Erniu said: "It's okay, daughter-in-law, who is my mother, I know better than you, it's good that you can endure it for so long, I know." ”

Lin He listened to the conversation between his father and mother on the side, and felt that although such a husband and wife relationship was not earth-shattering. Feelings are accumulated in the bits and pieces of life, two people will think about each other's feelings, and husband and wife will understand each other. tolerating each other, which made her a little envious.

If your mother is not for your father, she will not put up with her grandmother like this, saying that she is afraid of gossip, which is indeed a small part of the reason, but most of them must be because they don't want their men to be embarrassed between their mother and daughter-in-law, so they would rather be wronged than make big things small.

Zhao was very happy to return home. I thought that there would be someone in the family to serve me in the future, and I was very happy to clean up a small utility room near the kitchen. Intending to let the people who came live, Father Lin saw her happy, so he asked her what was the matter, and she told them that Erniu wanted to invite someone to come back to serve them. But I didn't say anything about the trouble I made at Erniu's house. Daddy Lin usually doesn't go around to listen to other people's gossip, so naturally he doesn't know.

Father Lin didn't approve of inviting someone back, and said: "Old woman, there is such a thing at home, what do you invite someone to come back to do, you are all living in your own family, and you are not used to it, and I am afraid that it will cost hundreds of dollars a month to invite someone back." Who pays for this? ”

Zhao said happily: "Old man, my son is filial. I want to invite someone back to serve, I'm happy, there are not many things at home, these housework always have to be done, Hongxia has a big belly, this is going to give birth after a while, please come back and wait, I have a lot less things, the matter of money, Erniu said that he cares. ”

Father Lin was very relaxed when he heard Zhao say this, so he didn't ask more, and let Zhao toss. Wait until the next day, as soon as breakfast is over, Erniu came to Zhao's yard, saying that he was going to Yayu to pick someone, and Daddy Lin was also at home, Erniu asked him to go with him, Daddy Lin waved his hand, saying that it was enough to let Zhao go alone.

The two of them arrived at Yayu, Yayu brought a lot of people out for them to choose, Erniu meant to let Zhao choose an ordinary woman to go back to do it first, and sign a contract like a long worker, a few hundred silver dollars a month is enough, but Zhao didn't think so, she looked at it in a bunch of people, and finally took a fancy to a very young woman, Yayu said that it was a widow, to sell herself, but other masters disliked the widow and were unlucky, so they refused to buy.

Presumably, this widow has been here for a while, and the tooth has not been sold, but now seeing that Zhao has taken a fancy to it, she said flatteringly: "Old Madam Lin, this is a widow, she sells herself, if you want it, I will be cheaper, and I will count ten taels of silver for you, when it is half sold and half given, you don't need monthly money for a month, just give dozens of big money for it." ”

Erniu felt that this lady was a widow, and she looked very young, afraid that she was not a person who could do things, and just wanted to persuade her mother to choose a new one, but she didn't expect that the woman would suddenly kneel in front of Zhao's family, crying and saying: "Old lady, you buy me, just give me food, I can do anything, and it doesn't cost anything." ”

Zhao originally planned to ask for this woman, but when he saw this person crying with a pitiful look, he whispered to Erniu: "Erniu, I want this, you see that this is only ten taels of silver, you can buy it, how cost-effective, please give a few hundred dollars a month, a few taels a year, and you see that this person has clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and it looks better to take it out." ”

Although Erniu didn't think it was good, seeing that Zhao was so insistent, he asked, "Mother, are you sure you want her?" Doesn't this mean that she is a widow, and people say that it is unlucky, so why not choose a new one? ”

"What does it matter to the widow, this is to go home and do work, I don't believe in this, I want her." Zhao still persevered, and even said that he couldn't believe in the superstitions that he had always believed in.

Seeing that she insisted, Erniu gave Yayu ten taels of silver to buy this woman, and this woman saw that someone was willing to buy her, and seeing that Erniu was still tall and big, she was very happy, and walked up to Zhao and shouted, "Old lady." He also shouted at Erniu, "Young Master." ”

Erniu waved his hand and said, "You don't need to call the young master, you can follow our family's long-term workers to call the owner." ”

However, Zhao thought that the title of the old lady was very good, so he agreed, and said that he would let this woman be called like this in the future. On the way home, Zhao had a look at the woman, it turned out that this woman's name was Dongyu, eighteen years old this year, there was no father and mother since childhood, so she was a child daughter-in-law in someone's house, in the husband's house, the little husband has been in poor health, and last year he couldn't stay up and died, and her in-laws saw that she had no children, so they didn't want to leave her at home to eat rice for nothing, and directly bought her to Yayu.

I have been here for a long time, and most people see her as a widow and dislike her, so even if the price of selling her body drops again and again, no one is willing to buy it, and Yayu also said that if she can't sell it again, she will be sent to the kiln, and now she sees that Zhao is willing to buy her, so she naturally pleads.

This woman also knows that if no one buys her this time, she will definitely be sent to the kiln, and if she gets to the kiln, what good way do she have to go, even if she goes to Zhao's house without pay, it is better than being sold into the kiln.
