Chapter 154: Eccentricity

Old Man Chen didn't care about these things, so he couldn't stop greeting Duan Erhu who was sitting beside him. As the saying goes, if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather, and the old man Chen values the children in front of him in his heart, but he can't stand the coaxing of his stepwife every day, and Wen Yan lives in a small house at home, but it is not a pain, and even with a little son-in-law is more favored than the first two daughters.

The bowl in front of Duan Erhu was full of large pieces of meat and vegetables, and in the cup was the best bamboo leaf green.

Two sons-in-law, different treatment, don't look at Duan Erhu and Wen Yan's family, but they are more intimate with Dafang and the Zheng family in their hearts. Hearing Chen Zichang's ridicule of Zheng Huozi's words, he couldn't help but feel annoyed, and picked up the bamboo leaves beside him and poured them for Zheng Huozi.

The women's table was scattered, and everyone sat and drank tea and ate the fruit.

Wen Ying glanced through the curtain, full of meat and vegetables, only a bowl of pig intestines in front of his man, although he was like this every year, he couldn't swallow this breath in his stomach.

Wen Yan's favorite thing is to fall on his man's face in front of his mother's family, so as to show off his skills, and when he saw that the man was guessing and eating wine with Zheng Huozi, he raised his voice and said: "I know how many pounds and taels I have, and I have worked hard to pour cat urine, and you are drunk to see which one helps you." ”

Zheng Huozi smiled and laughed at the past, but now he went crazy, took a sip of wine, chewed peanuts slowly, and said after a while: "The affairs of the man's family, you ladies are less involved." ”

In a word, Wen Yan couldn't get off the stage, so he had to lift the table, and was dragged by Mrs. Chen.

Wen Yan was angry in her heart, her mother-in-law made a rule this year, and the whole family waited for the eldest sister to go to her mother's house on the second day of the Lunar New Year. When I came home, I was afraid that my mother's family would see me clearly. Even a relative was restrained by his mother-in-law.

Wen Yan is already the mother of two children, and her style of acting has not changed at all, and she still falls on her face if she doesn't agree with a word.

is not afraid that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, in front of the mother-in-law and the second sister, the matter of how to fight with Mrs. Duan is all over the yard, and Mrs. Chen can't persuade her.

Wen Ying looked coldly at the sister born to her stepmother, and sneered in her heart. Glued a delicate rice candy on the table. I put it in my mouth and took a bite and spit it out: "The rice candy that my sister brought was bought a year ago, and I ate it all soft, and it wasn't crispy at all." In the end, it is my sister's intimacy, and I want to come to the mother's teeth to chew the crispy, and I brought it when it was softened. ”

As soon as these words came out, they interrupted Wen Yan's mouth that was flying up and down. Rao is that she is thick-skinned, and she was exposed in public. A purple face suffocated, and he didn't dare to talk back to his sister.

Who in the room didn't know that the rice candy was from years ago, and the old lady Chen relied on the fact that it was brought by her daughter, and she put out a plate to show off.

"I love cotton!" Mrs. Chen glued a piece. Put it in your mouth, it tastes like chewing wax, and the sugar on it melts. Confused. also kept greeting Zhao, Xueyao, and Xuemiao to eat, and went home from Xueyao. The exquisite food in the second room continues, where can I see this.

Wen Ying just saw Zheng Huozi drinking as if he was angry, and he didn't go to pick up the vegetables, and the bowl of pig's intestine in front of him didn't move, but Qi An put a large piece of elbow in his uncle's bowl. Wen Yingqi gritted his teeth angrily, and the table was full of chicken, duck and fish, that is, he took out one or two plates and put them in front of Zheng Huozi, can he eat the poor Chen family. Until Wen Yan's face fell, his heart was like drinking a big bowl of snowflake sugar ice mung bean soup on a June day, refreshing from head to toe.

Mrs. Chen saw that her daughter was angry, and she was naturally dissatisfied with Wen Ying in her heart. But she really didn't dare to say big things to Wenying, she was not as honest as her brothers and sisters in front of her, she dared to talk back to her when she was young, and she would be a lot of Wenying when she was young. Seeing that Wen Yan was blocked, she was more uncomfortable than being blocked, and turned her voice to Zhao: "Give your sister a bowl of sweet soup to moisten her throat." After thinking about it, he shouted again, "Serve one more bowl to your sister." He pinched the nearest plate of fried noodles in front of him and handed it to Wen Ying, "You taste this, there are a lot of sesame seeds this year, and they are fragrant." ”

Zhao brought two bowls of sweet soup and sent them over, in front of people, she had a good face, Wen Yan and Wen Ying had the same dates in the bowl, and they had the same egg flowers. After the conversation turned to the second room, Wen Yan took a sip of sweet soup, spit out the date kernel, stared at Zhao and smiled: "Sister-in-law is so blessed, give birth to a good girl." ”

Xue Yao's face turned red, and she lowered her head to pick up the pumpkin seeds in the sunflower seeds.

"Under the big festival, my uncle didn't come to give a New Year's gift?" Wen Yan didn't wait for Zhao to speak, and said with a smile on his face.

I don't know if she was sincere or unintentional, but she asked this. Who in the Manchu family doesn't know that Xue Yao is also a concubine when she enters the Ding Mansion, so she naturally doesn't move around like a serious relative, and the Chen family wants to climb the identity of the Yue family, so you have to wait for Xue Yao to straighten out and think about it. Don't look at Chen Zichang's big face outside, claiming that he is the father-in-law of the Ding Mansion, at most he will deceive the countryman who doesn't know the truth, in fact, he doesn't even know which direction the gate of the Ding Mansion is facing.

Zhao almost couldn't lift it in one breath, so he quickly glanced at his daughter, pretended to laugh and said, "How far is Xuzhou Mansion from here, we naturally have to think about the Ding family." ”

This is just a pretext, although it is also Najib, taking a name, and there are many ceremonies, but Ding Mansion just sent a grandmother with the official media to discuss it.

Xue Miao, who was biased, was afraid that she didn't know that her sister was already from Dingfu, so she opened her mouth and came: "It's not a good time for my brother-in-law to come to the house, and he can't come in the next year, so he will naturally come when he gets married." ”

Xue Yao's face was red and dripping blood. When it comes to family affairs, ordinary girls bow their heads and keep silent in order to show their reserve, and Xueyao is naturally no exception.

As soon as Xue Miao's words fell, Wen Ying snorted. Xue Miao was not afraid to flash her tongue when she said that, and she was called by her brother-in-law, and she was not a serious wife and sister.

Chen Xuejiao felt that the room was too stuffy, so she pulled her cousin from the house to play.

There was a dragon in the room, and the two of them leaned on the bed and fiddled with the colored silk strips, and the big girl held a delicate jade toad in her hand and couldn't put it down. It was made by Jing Hao and given to Xue Jiao, hanging it around her neck every day, and seeing that the girl liked it, she gave it to her.

"Sister Xuejiao, the eldest brother who sells meat for the second concubine beat up a girl, and it is rumored in the town that he is here to avenge the concubine, do you know what happened? I asked my mother, but she reprimanded her. The big girl put the jade toad spitting beads around her wrist and held it up to face the sunlight outside the window to take a closer look.

Xue Jiao naturally knew who Butcher Zhao was beating, but this was not something that a girl's family could say. So he said to him: "I don't know either." ”

The sisters talked, and Li and Wenying came in with Xueru.

Wen Ying didn't eat enough at the dinner table, so Li re-entered the pot house, lit the stove, brought out the flat food filling, and wrapped a big bowl of dumplings with the dumpling wrappers that he had rolled out yesterday. Add to the chicken broth. Chicken soup is eaten on the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve. When the stove is hot, fill the pawnshop with shredded chicken on top and bring the pot to a boil. After rolling a few times, the soup and water were brought into the north wing room for Wenying to eat.

Wen Ying said while eating: "Today's table full of big fish and meat, I'm afraid it was my sister-in-law." ”

Lee nodded.

"You've only had a few days to celebrate your birthday, and I'm picking you all the same. I see. In the future, if you have money, it is better to rent a house in the town to live. ”

Qi Ping used to sit at the women's table with Li during dinner, and he shouted that he was a year old. I no longer refuse to go to the table of my daughter's family when I eat, and now I sit at the men's table with my father and brother.

Qi Ping's long thick eyebrows and big eyes, round face plate, and wearing a purple cotton jacket. The meat whirring looks like a doll on a New Year's painting.

Duan Erhu has no sons, only two daughters, and his eyes are hot when he sees other people's sons. hugged Qi Ping a few times. Tear off the chicken leg and give him a sip of wine. Look at the cute look of his frowning eyebrows, and laugh.

Zheng Huozi smiled and said to his brother-in-law: "My brother-in-law likes boys, and he can tease his nephew, so why don't you give him a red envelope when you meet." Duan Erhu smiled and hurriedly took out the red envelope from his sleeve pocket and gave it to Qi Ping, and teased her in his mouth: "Go to the street with my uncle and buy you something delicious." Saying that he would report a bunch of food, Qi Ping blinked his eyes and opened his mouth to eat the candy ball. Zheng Huozi saw that Duan Erhu took out the red envelope, and took out a handful of red envelopes from his pocket, not only flush, but each nephew stuffed one. Duan Erhu's face is not good-looking, he also wants to prepare a few more, how can his mother-in-law pay too much attention to the money, and she is so deducted from her own nephew, it is not that Zheng Huozi deliberately lowered Duan Erhu's face, he gives it every year.

Qi Ping got two red envelopes, and he was so happy to pull the big egg and go out to buy candy balls.

Duan Erhu was angry in his heart, and a large pot full of bamboo leaf green was poured into his stomach by him. His face was red and his mouth was full of words, and he pulled Zheng Huozi to prevent him from leaving, and shouted that he wanted to ask his brother-in-law to go to the bathhouse at the back of Baitu Town to take a bath and get a pedicure. Staggering, pulling Qi Lin with one hand and Qi An with the other, he shouted: "After the spring, my uncle will give you a big red seal." ”

Wen Yan saw that his man was drunk, and he was full of nonsense, and stepped forward to pick his ear: "Tell you not to drink, don't drink, drink too much and be nonsense." Pulling his ears, Duan Erhu suddenly touched the edge of the table and knocked over a large bowl of crucian carp tofu soup, his mouth was confused, and he couldn't hold back the "wow" and spit on Wen Yanxin's jacket.

She didn't care about getting angry, she jumped a few feet away, her face turned red and she scolded: "Useless things, get drunk when you drink a little wine, is it a man?" ”

When Mrs. Chen saw that her daughter was covered in filth, she asked Zhao to fetch water to wipe her clothes, and Zhang to bring her clean and unused strips of cloth, and the house became a mess of porridge. Wen Yan was reluctant to eat this red jacket, so Mrs. Chen forced Zhao to take the same red jacket from the house and change it for her.

Wen Yan had the intention to show that he could hold Duan Erhu in his mother's house, and he couldn't stop scolding: "No one is a dog thing, he will be wild when he drinks cat urine, and he spit out my clothes, not to mention that he will make amends to me." ”

With her waist crossed, the old lady Chen, who was full of posture, carved out of a mold.

Although Duan Erhu was drunk, his mind was still clear, and when he heard Wen Yan scolding him, his brother's words rang in his ears a few days ago: "Your wife didn't fight for two days, and she went to the house to reveal the tiles, and she couldn't find anyone in Xuzhou Mansion who scolded her mother-in-law and your sister-in-law all day long like her." ”

Wen Yan scolded himself: "Just a person like you who can't even resist a mouthful of cat urine, what kind of man is you, and you can't give birth to a son because of you." ”

The scolding was so vulgar that even Mrs. Chen couldn't help but scold her.

Unable to give birth to a son touched Duan Erhu, he was a clay man and couldn't help scolding like this, I saw him walk up quickly and pull Wen Yan's hair from behind, Wen Yan's face was tilted up, and he gave her two slaps with his hands.

Wen Chang was beaten with gold stars in his eyes, and he didn't reflect it for a long time. Mrs. Chen snorted and went up to protect her, and smashed her son-in-law with her little feet and fists. The Zhao family, the Zhao family, and the Cai family all watched it by their side, and no one went up to Lawen Yan, this sister-in-law deserved to be repaired, and went back to her parents' house all day to transfer three nests and fours.

Old Man Chen and his sons pulled forward, Old Lady Chen picked up a bowl of cold tea from the table and poured it on his head, Duan Erhu was excited. Most of the wine was gone, he was already a rigid and weak person, and when he saw Wen Yan's mother's brothers surrounding him, he was scared in his heart, and his legs fell weak.

Everyone was busy again, and at this time, Mrs. Chen couldn't care about Wen Yan, full of fear that her son-in-law would come to the door if he had three long and two short in-laws.

The house was full of commotion, and Li was called to boil the sobering soup, and Qi An took a clean dress for his uncle to change.

When Chen Xuejiao arrived in the upper room, she saw Wen Yan sitting in the corner of the kang, the rouge on her face was spent, the powder was off, and her face was full of tears. Sister Chun leaned on her, and her little face was red from crying.

In the evening, Wen Ying's family had already gone back, and Duan Erhu sobered up, regretting the urge to beat people after getting drunk.

has been restrained by her daughter-in-law for so many years, even though she is dissatisfied in her heart, she has never touched a finger.

Seeing Wen Yan's sallow smiling face, which was more moving than the usual tough tigress, he jumped up from the kang and walked in front of Wen Yan to make a straight move.

Wen Yan spit a mouthful of phlegm on his face, and he didn't wipe it. Mrs. Chen was even more angry and wanted to go up and kick her feet, scolding and scolding without a clean word.

It was still Old Man Chen and Chen Xiucai who went up to solve the siege. Although Old Man Chen felt sorry for his daughter's beating, he knew that this fight was worth it, if he didn't really annoy his son-in-law, his daughter would not be beaten. She didn't have a son in the first place, and she was still so horizontal in the Duan family, if she met an ordinary family, she would have been suspended and returned home. The Duan family is a kind family, and they can't stand her making trouble all day long, maybe this beating will make her learn to eat softly, and be careful not to be beaten by the Duan family in the future.

Wen Yan was stupid and stupid, and he knew that he was provoking the man by himself. Beat her in front of her mother's family, she felt that she had lost face, and she didn't want to stay at her mother's house for a moment, and she saw schadenfreude from the corners of her sister-in-law's eyebrows and eyes.

Ignoring Mrs. Chen's retention, the two took the children and hired a carriage to leave before it was dark. (To be continued)
