Chapter 44: Making Peace

Xue Yao was used to serving people in Nading Mansion, and helped Chen Zichang change gauze and medicine neatly.

Li fried a bowl of medicine for Chen Zichang and sent it over, and Zhao personally fed Chen Zichang to drink it one by one.

Xue Yao poured boiling water and made tea with the best Lao Jun Mei in her purse, and Zhao took it and gave it to Mrs. Chen.

"Mother, you are angry, it is not mine, I have been sick and crying these days. My brother came to the house and said something you don't like to hear, and he was in a hurry, he didn't want to make a big deal about it, but he was just angry, and asked his mother not to care about him as a junior. Zhao stood beside Mrs. Chen with low eyebrows.

Mrs. Chen didn't raise her eyebrows, and naturally she didn't take the tea.

Li retreated, and Zhao stood there embarrassed, only to feel that the tea in his hand was hot.

Zhao thought about it carefully in the past two days and found that in this family, the only person who could rely on was Mrs. Chen. The main reason why she has a face that is three or four rooms larger than the big house is that she has the support of Mrs. Chen. I thought that Chen Zichang had this incident, and his mother's family came to vent his anger and save a little face, but he didn't expect that his brother was a violent temper and beat Chen Zichang, and now Mrs. Chen was determined to sprinkle all her anger on herself. In this family, if you lose the favor of Mrs. Chen in the future, then I am afraid that my life will be as difficult as my sister-in-law.

"Milk, don't be angry" Xue Yao wanted to speak and stopped, looking at Mrs. Chen's face and knowing that this was not the time to persuade, she stopped talking.

Mrs. Zhao saw that her mother had no face for her daughter in front of her, so she angrily pulled Zhao into the ear room.

Xue Yao was caught in the middle and covered Chen Zichang with a quilt, and then also got into the ear room.

In the ear room, Zhao snuggled up to Mrs. Zhao and was talking in a low voice.

“…… Seeing this situation, the old lady was angry. You also know that I have always had a face in front of her, except that she suppressed Dafang and lifted me up, relying on my sweet mouth. Just now I served her tea and said soft words, but she didn't raise her eyebrows, just afraid that I would be sad in the future. Zhao's face was sad.

"Afraid of what? With me and your brother to support you, if she embarrasses you in the future, I and your brother will come forward. Mrs. Zhao said disappreciatively.

"After all, I am the daughter-in-law of the Chen family, you can protect me for a while, but you can't protect me for a lifetime, I can't let my mother's family support me whenever something goes wrong." Zhao Shi flicked the string of jasper beads sent by Xue Yao in his hand and said, "Qi Lin and his father have done such a shameless thing, I am annoyed, I still have to live in the future, you and my brother will not be able to take me home." This time the old lady was annoyed, I thought that in the future, I would let her look down on me again, but I am afraid that it will not work according to today's situation. ”

"Who is your mother-in-law, I don't know, when she was a girl, she fought with her sister-in-law every day at home, and she was a fierce product. Zichang did such a shameless thing, she didn't say that she cared for you, but complained about you. Mrs. Zhao said.

Zhao's heart tightened, and when she was a girl, she didn't have a good deal with her sister-in-law every day.

"Mother, I know that my mother takes care of me. I have always been a high-minded and arrogant person, and when I gave birth to a son in my first child, I gained power in front of my mother-in-law, and I had a big face outside the house. Qi Lin is a promising, and Xue Yao is also promising. But at this time, Qi Lin's father gave me no face, I am afraid that the big house with three bedrooms and four rooms will look down on me, you and my brother will support me and tell them inside and out that I am a person with a mother's family, I am grateful, but my brother should not beat the son hard. Zhao leaned into Mrs. Zhao's arms.

When she heard her daughter say that her brother shouldn't beat her uncle, Mrs. Zhao pursed her lips.

Xue Yao hurriedly persuaded: "Grandma, it's a good thing that you came to support your mother, you didn't want to make your mother lose face, you will stand more straight in front of your milk in the future, and you will be more powerful in front of other concubines." Originally, this thing was wrong with my father, my mother was patient, and the milk would be better for my mother in the future, but this time my uncle made such a big fuss, and I didn't have the heart to treat my mother well, how would my mother's life be in the future. ”

Mrs. Zhao was dissatisfied with what Xue Yao said, and she complained about her son inside and out, so she changed the topic: "I think the eldest family is tougher than before." ”

Xue Yao pulled the topic back again: "What's in it for us if the boss's family is hard." Grandma, think about it, in my grandmother's heart, our family is a serious big house, you and your uncle are so noisy, who is watching the joke? It's not a big house yet. In order to suppress the big house, the milk lifted her mother with all her might, if she was disgusted with my mother because of this matter, it would not be enough for them to see the joke. Although our family has a feud with the big house because of my brother's relatives, I have to say fairly, the eldest aunt had a hard time that day, and you don't want my mother to have the same hard time as the eldest aunt in the future. ”

These words touched Mrs. Zhao's mind.

"Where can the hard air go in the big house, I heard that the big boy in the big house and Qi Lin is also good at studying, I have been watching coldly in the past few days, their second girl is also smart, and she dares to force your mother-in-law to drink that coptis. I heard Xue Miao's girl say that the daughter-in-law of the big house is becoming more and more disagreeable, and she slapped Zizhang some time ago, and your mother-in-law did not punish her. Mrs. Zhao said in a low voice.

"So, our family can't make trouble, so as not to cheapen them." Xue Yao thought about it for a while.

"Mother, I've cried for the past few days and thought it clearly, Qi Lin's father can't count on it, I will guard these children in the future." Zhao began to cry again.

"Qi Lin is a good person, he studies well, and he will be admitted in the future, you are the wife of the official, your good life is ahead, you can't be discouraged." Seeing her daughter like this, Mrs. Zhao explained, "Zichang is not a thing, so you can't count on it." ”

Xue Yao heard Mrs. Chen scold Chen Zichang like this, although it was the truth, in the end it was her own father, and she felt uncomfortable after all.

Xue Yao knew that the current status of the Zhao family in the family was determined by Mrs. Chen, and she must persuade Mrs. Zhao to go to Mrs. Chen to make peace today.

“…… My mother didn't complain about my uncle's support, but on the contrary, she was grateful. Grandma, you and your uncle are all for my mother to have a good life, if it is because my uncle beat my father and annoyed my milk to give my mother a hard life in the future, you are not happy. Grandma is distressed that her son was beaten, not to mention anything else, and said that grandma, you love your uncle so much, if your uncle makes a mistake, and your aunt's mother's family makes such a fuss, what do you think in your heart. Xue Yao continued to guide Old Lady Zhao.

"She dares." Sure enough, when she mentioned her son, Mrs. Zhao became excited, she had always disliked that daughter-in-law, "I won't leave her." After thinking about it, there was a way, "Your child is under a trap for me to drill, is your uncle the one?" ”

"Xue Yao is right, my brother is not that person. She just wants you to understand that how can a mother not feel sorry for her children. The Zhao family excused Xue Yao, "I'm not excusing Zichang, I hate him to death, I'm just trying to continue to have a good life in the Chen family in the future." Mother, you are not happy that your sister-in-law's family will come to the house to support your sister-in-law, and my mother-in-law is not happy either. ”

At the beginning, Zhao saw his brother and mother coming to support him, and felt that he had saved face in front of his concubine, who would have thought that his brother would beat Chen Zichang violently, so that Mrs. Chen would definitely resent herself, and her life would be difficult in the future. After thinking about it, the only way to do this is to let my mother make peace with my mother-in-law for me. stabilized her mother-in-law, she is still the most face-saving daughter-in-law of the Chen family, and in the future, Qi Lin will come out of the whole family, and it is not up to him to decide.

Mrs. Zhao listened to the words of her daughter and Xue Yao, and her thoughts turned a thousand times. I am such a girl, I grew up on the tip of my heart, I have never done heavy work and never heard heavy words. She didn't want her daughter to lose her status in her in-law's family because of such a fuss at her. Xue Yao is right, she came to support her daughter in order to make her daughter's life better in the future, not to make her mother-in-law bow down and be small. Thinking like this, Mrs. Zhao gritted her teeth and stood up: "I'll let go of my old face." ”

Zhao and Xue Yao glanced at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. The mother and the mother-in-law went to make peace, and in the future, she continued to serve sweetly in front of her, thinking of ways to let the big house stimulate the mother-in-law, so that her position was as stable as before.

“…… Old sister, you're still angry. It's my fault, I didn't hold my son, and you know that your cousin is a short-tempered and distressed sister, and he bumped into you. You don't look at it, you don't look at it, you just look at it in Qi Lin's face to dissipate your anger. Old Lady Zhao sat next to Old Lady Chen and said.

Mrs. Chen was silent.

"You are a family, and there are many places where you need to work in this family. My daughter got married, and I didn't have a day of worry," Mrs. Zhao continued.

"That's not it." Mrs. Chen interrupted Mrs. Zhao's words, "I offer to her like a Buddha, I don't let her cook the food, I don't let her do the work in the fields, and I don't let her eat and drink spicy new clothes." ”

"That is to say, you treat her as your daughter, and she also treats you as your mother. The eldest girl in our village said that she was like a mother-in-law like you, and everyone praised my daughter for marrying the right person. Old lady Zhao flattered.

Old Mrs. Chen's face turned slightly pale when she heard this.

Mrs. Zhao saw it clearly and continued to take eye medicine: "What I did this time was not right, I quarreled with you a few days ago, old sister, you can be considerate of me." I also feel sorry for my daughter, and I also regard my son as my own son. I was angry with him for doing this, and I delayed Qi Lin's future in the future. ”

Qi Lin is the person on the tip of Mrs. Chen's heart.

As soon as Chen Zichang saw his mother-in-law come in, he didn't dare to breathe, and after listening to his mother-in-law's words, he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into. He was angry that he was beaten in Fireworks Alley, and he was beaten by his wife and uncle at home, and how he would raise his head in front of people in the future.

"You treat the son as your own son, and you let your son beat him." Mrs. Chen moved her ass and stayed away from Mrs. Zhao.

"Old sister, my son is a quick temper, and he is doing the pig killing business for a living, and I can't control my temper. Didn't he apologize to you, didn't he give you five catties of pork to be filial to you? Mrs. Zhao gritted her teeth and said, she was also aggrieved in her heart when she said this, so she had to endure it for the sake of her daughter, and continued, "Old sister, say something that shouldn't be said, if your Aunt Wen makes such a mistake, what kind of mood do you have, and please understand my heart as a mother." ”

Mrs. Chen snorted, if her uncle was like this, she would have brought a few sons to the door earlier, but it was different to be a son.

There is no impartiality in people's hearts, and what has to fall on you to know how painful and hurtful it is.

Mrs. Zhao lowered her voice and said: "My daughter has been crying these days, and she told me that Dafang has become angry these days, I am afraid that you will be aggrieved, and I am afraid that this matter will make Qi Lin lose face and make people laugh." You also know that Qi An's kid is competing with Qi Lin every day, and now he is only afraid that he is secretly laughing, and the second girl is not a good match. To put it mildly, what will happen to the big house in the future, it is not as good as your own son and grandson to love you. ”

These words touched the heart of Mrs. Chen.

"Old sister, we are the same people, we don't have anything in our hearts, for the sake of the eldest family. Don't be angry, I'm afraid that someone is looking forward to you and the second room. Old lady Zhao said as she pointed to the north wing.

Mrs. Chen finally spoke: "As long as you can speak, raising a daughter will not know anything but sweet mouth." Your son too, beat my son, give five catties of pork and it's over. ”

"I'll let him carry a whole pig for you." Mrs. Zhao smiled, as long as Mrs. Chen didn't get angry with herself.

Chen Zichang also breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that Mrs. Chen was fighting with the Zhao family. He was terrified of his uncle's fleshy face and his life-threatening hand.

Mrs. Chen twisted her body unnaturally, and now Mrs. Zhao has come to give herself a soft face, which can be regarded as giving herself a step down, so it is better to forgive the second daughter-in-law. However, Mrs. Chen thought about it, in the end, she had to be allowed to suffer the crime of ideas, and let her know that this family was run by Mrs. Chen, not her mother's family who wanted to make trouble.

In the ear room, Zhao took Xue Yao's hand and said with tears in his eyes: "I'm holding my breath in my heart, if it weren't for you, I would have asked your grandma to give you milk, and your grandma has never bowed her head to anyone in her life." ”

Xue Yao gently persuaded: "I know, mother, wait for me to be in Dingfu in the future" The latter words swallowed and blushed, sighed and said: "Although grandma said peace to the milk, according to the nature of the milk, I am afraid that as soon as we leave, the milk will take you as a pawn, and it will be good if you endure it for a few days." ”

Zhao didn't pay attention to Xue Yao's expression, and continued: "I know, I have been by your grandmother's side for so many years, and I have also figured out your grandmother's temperament. Just wait for Qi Lin to come out in the future, you rely on the Ding Mansion to find a good family, and I don't have the heart in this family. Zhao paused and said: "A few days ago, you told me that the Ding Mansion doesn't want your redemption money, and people value you, so it's better to ask the old lady to find you a good family." You signed a living deed, unlike that slave, you are still a daughter of a good family when you release it, and you are good-looking, it is not difficult to find a good family. You will go back in a few days, and I will tell you these words. ”

Xue Yao lowered her head and didn't speak, her mind Zhao didn't understand.

The last time the old man of the Ding Mansion came to the house, the Zhao family vaguely understood the plans of the Ding Mansion in his heart, and the Zhao family didn't want her to be a concubine. But she doesn't think like that, even if she marries into an ordinary family, she will serve her in-laws the same, and she will meet an unserious man the same, and her father is not an example. If you stay in Dingfu, not to mention food and clothing, it is not difficult to earn a future by relying on your own means and appearance.
