Chapter 517: Who's going to take care of the house
"I also told my mother-in-law about this in advance, and my mother-in-law had the same idea as you at first, that is, she was worried that if so many mouths were added to the house at once, the cost must be huge. But if you think about it the other way around, these people have to look for it. Since we can live in such a big house, we still have to spend this expense. Xue Shi analyzed carefully.
Magu nodded approvingly, "It's still sister-in-law who is thoughtful." ”
Xue smiled briskly, his eyes lit up slightly, "Brother and sister, it's just that the expenses are still there." Caiyu is now someone else's daughter-in-law, so naturally she shouldn't ask her for money. This father-in-law and mother-in-law are also old, so naturally they can't ask them for this money. Then only our big room and your second room are left. My idea is that since the family is bigger and more regular, then we have to do many things according to the rules. ”
Magu roughly guessed what Xue was going to say, "The expenses in this house, our second room should also pay for some of it." ”
With Magu's words, Xue smiled vaguely, "Yes, we should pay half of this cost." Now we are separated, and we eat in our own courtyards. Even so, such a large mansion always has to be run by one person. Brother and sister, do you say? ”
Xue wants to host the feed?
"Sister-in-law, if you have anything to say, just say it, I listen to you." Magu had already seen Xue's careful thoughts, but she remained silent and waited for Xue to say it herself.
"Oh, my younger brother and sister still understand me." Xue Shi was overjoyed, "You said, mother-in-law is so old, her vision and foresight are not good." In the past, the small family didn't care about her, but now it's such a big family. If I give her care again, I am worried that my family will not have peace. ”
"Sister-in-law, it's a bit serious if the family has no peace." Although Magu agreed with what Xue said. But I don't think my mother-in-law will almost go anywhere. Similarly, Magu didn't think that the Xue family could be much better than her mother-in-law.
I feel that I have been trapped, and it is Xue who has set myself up.
Xue wanted to be in charge of the family, but he knew that the family would not support her, so he wanted to bring her together. Xue's previous words touched her very much, everyone is a daughter-in-law, and they are all outsiders of the Hu family.
I saw Magu thinking. Xue didn't force her, and took a sip of the tea bowl.
"Sister-in-law, I think this matter should be discussed with everyone. See what everyone thinks. "She can't be the master of this matter, and she has to see if others are convinced by her Xue family.
Xue Shi hurriedly put down the tea bowl, "That's for sure, it's just that my brother and sister will have to stand with me when the time comes." ”
My mother-in-law is old. So many people in the family have to worry about it every day. Or Xue is the most suitable.
"Okay." Magu agreed to her.
Xue's eyebrows stretched, as if he was the master of this Hu Mansion.
The iron should be struck while it was hot, and the Xue family refused to let Magu leave, and dragged her to gather all the people in the family to the hall.
It was still early, and everyone was idle, and they came to the hall to see which one of the Xue clans was present.
"What's going on? You have something important to say. The mother-in-law sat on the first seat and looked at Xue with slanted eyes.
She has been dissatisfied with this eldest daughter-in-law a lot recently, rushing to give orders in everything, and blindly commanding everywhere. It's as if she's in charge at home. made those subordinates afraid of her Xue family.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law. Husband, brother and sister. There were four people in total, and she shouted again, "Actually, I am looking for everyone to come here today, just to discuss with the family, such a big house, should someone come out to preside over the feed." ”
Ah Cai Niang suddenly became angry, "What? Looking for someone to come out and host the feed? This matter still needs to be discussed? Does this person still have to look for it? ”
Isn't she the only one?
Of course, the Xue family knew what her mother-in-law meant, and said disapprerovitically: "Mother-in-law, now there are a total of forty-six people under the light, and with the addition of other people, there are almost sixty people in our house." There are so many people, mother-in-law, you are old, how can you worry about coming over. ”
Magu suddenly sighed in her heart, when did this Xue family become so thoughtful, and actually analyzed the affairs of the family like this.
In this way, the Xue family really has the potential to manage the affairs of the family.
"Yo, old man, are you trying to take my power? Hmph, the old lady is still alive, so you don't think about it. Why should you be in charge of the family business that my two sons have earned? You want to take care of the housekeeper and come back when I'm dead. Ah Cai Niang looked unhappy.
"Bah, mother, don't talk nonsense, what is dead, dead." Hu Awang stood up and spit three mouthfuls of saliva in a row, then turned back to reprimand his wife: "What's the matter with your mother-in-law? Mother's body is still strong, of course the family affairs have to be handled by the mother, you give me back to the house to stay well. ”
The Xue clan had long expected that they would not agree, so he gave Magu a hard look.
Magu is also a little embarrassed, what the family does not agree with, she can use it wherever she speaks. Especially in front of her mother-in-law, who says nothing, she can't convince her.
"Mother-in-law, don't be angry, sister-in-law doesn't mean to seize power, she also feels sorry for you." Magu thought about it and waited for her mother-in-law to dissipate her anger.
"Phew, what do you feel sorry for me, my body is very good, and my brain is not stupid. She fooled you, and you believed. Ah Cai Niang glanced at Magu, "Did she ask you to persuade us before?" ”
was debunked all of a sudden, Magu turned her head to look at Xue in a panic, Xue lowered her head, she didn't expect her mother-in-law to be so fine.
"Mother-in-law, sister-in-law really feels sorry for you. Think about it, the family is not our original few people now, there are nearly sixty people, so many people, how does my mother-in-law plan to take care of it? With so many people, if there are no rules, there will be no chaos. Magu asked.
The anger on Ah Cainiang's face disappeared, and she hung her head and thought seriously, "It's not that I haven't thought about this problem before, so many people, I'm afraid that a whole set of rules is needed." ”
Hearing her mother-in-law say this, Xue hurriedly seized the opportunity, "Mother-in-law, I have thought of a set of rules to manage this group of people. ”
Hu Awang yawned, "Okay, your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are in charge of this matter, I'll go back to the house first." With that, he left.
Ah Cai's father couldn't sit still, so he got up and followed Hu Awang out of the hall.
Magu also wants to leave, her brain is spinning for a day today, and she doesn't want to use her brain.
"Brother and sister, if you have something to do, go back first, I'll discuss it with my mother-in-law."
The Xue family really knew her so well, Magu responded with a smile, and then turned around and left to go back to her courtyard.
I heard the maid later report that the eldest lady and the old lady had a very happy conversation, and in the end, the old lady was in charge of the feed, and the eldest lady assisted from the side.
This result is already the best.
Mother-in-law and Xue are not convinced by anyone, and now managing the affairs of the family together is probably the best ending. (To be continued......)
