Before the people in the courtyard dispersed, Mrs. Chen cried and went up to the door of the north wing, and everyone slandered her in their hearts that this was a cat crying mouse and fake mercy. Who doesn't know that she is the mother of the future, and I wish that the three children born before her would die.

Old Man Chen was so sad that he fainted in the north wing, and was carried back to the upper room by everyone.

Li was half leaning on the kang, his face was sallow, the tears on his face had dried, and the four children were in a circle.

Mrs. Chen came to the door with a wail, and when she saw Li's appearance, she swallowed all the words that were written with a full stomach. What's even more terrifying is Chen Xuejiao's eyes, seeing her come in, staring at her directly, she thought about it and walked out.

Mrs. Chen and the Zhang family discussed: "I'm afraid that Qi An's grandmother's family doesn't know the news yet." ”

Zhang was not stupid at this time, and slapped his face and said: "What my mother said, I see that Qi An's grandmother's family is not easy to mess with, in case they come to the house to make trouble, and invite the patriarch to open the ancestral hall, the whole family will be a big house." ”

Chen Xiucai's death can't be hidden, but I'm afraid that it will be spread to Lijiazhuang tonight. Don't talk about others, just say that the four children in the big house cried and went to the door to ask their grandparents for ideas, so they couldn't help but come. Mrs. Chen pulled her hair, rubbed her eyes, and made a haggard look, she made up her mind to take advantage of the fact that the Li family did not come to the door, she went to pick up with Mrs. Li first, so she instructed the Zhang family: "You look at your father, don't talk nonsense outside in stupid words, let the big egg flatten the car and take me to the Li family." ”

Mrs. Chen was still thinking about it while sitting in the flat car, but she was afraid that Old Man Chen had made up his mind, and it was impossible to coax him back now. Li died of a man, how can a woman stand up the door, even the Li family's mother can't see her suffering for half her life. Care. If her daughter Wen Yan came to this point, she couldn't watch her suffer, and she had to persuade her to remarry. They are all mothers, and the mothers who want to come to the Li family have the same thoughts.

Even if there are four children here, there is no man to guard the cold kiln. Li's mother's family has a bit of a family background, can she manage her for the rest of her life, she still has three sisters-in-law and nephews. Where can I close to my mother's family to supplement her.

The big egg ran fast with the flat cart. Mrs. Chen sat on top and was still thinking about the Li family's remarriage. The Li family is not old, and the young man can't, but there are widowers who have died of their daughters-in-law in and out of the township. If not, there will be a single person who can't beat his daughter-in-law in his life. Taking advantage of the fact that the 100 days of filial piety have not passed, he hurriedly united with Mrs. Li to coax the Li family to get married, otherwise. It's going to be three years.

It's going to rain, and my mother wants to get married, even if she has four children, she can't persuade her.

Li is slightly more handsome than ordinary women. She is a widow who doesn't want a bride price, she is a good hand at home and abroad, and she has experienced that she knows how to love men than her eldest daughter, and the Li family has to put a dowry. Which old bachelor doesn't rush to ask for such conditions.

Mrs. Chen thought about it for a long time, and she had chosen all the candidates. There are three old men in Maoshan Village who have been singles for half their lives, so I choose the one who can work hardest. Not in this village, but also the widower next door to her mother's Wangjiazhuang. It's just that none of the widower's three sons are vegetarians.

When the Li family remarried and gave birth to a son, where can I still remember the four children in front of me, and when the time comes, don't say that one Qi An is a hundred Qi An is not in the hands of her and Qi Lin. There are still 40 acres of good paddy fields in the big house, and they will all be returned to the house when the time comes.

The more Mrs. Chen thought about it, the more proud she became, and when she arrived at the door of Li's house, everyone lit lanterns and waited for dinner. She wanted to pretend to be like, pinched her thigh, her painful eyes were full of tears, and she got out of the flat car and patted her little feet to open the door of the Li family and cried: "In-laws, it's amazing, my eldest son is gone, and the eldest son is hard." ”

Mrs. Chen entered the door crying, and dinner was being set up in Li's house, and as soon as she picked up her chopsticks, she saw her crying and stepping into the door. Mrs. Li and her eldest daughter-in-law Qiao Shi glanced at each other, and they didn't take it seriously, thinking in their hearts that your eldest son is not Chen Zichang, maybe there will be some kind of moth to make you give up your face and go to the door. Mrs. Li asked her second daughter-in-law to add a pair of chopsticks: "Don't cry in-laws, don't cry, what can the son have to do?" I ate first and was talking. ”

The eldest daughter-in-law brought a chair and placed it beside Mrs. Chen, and said with a smile: "Auntie, you can't say this, didn't your eldest son go to the city to enjoy happiness?" You're cursing him. It's the first time my aunt has come to the door, and her eyesight is really good, and she didn't touch the wrong door. ”

Mrs. Chen was crying vigorously, and when she heard this, tears came into her stomach. The second daughter-in-law put on the chopsticks, put a plate of steamed buns in front of her, and greeted her: "Auntie, eat it while it's hot." ”

At this interruption, Mrs. Chen's tears were all withdrawn. She couldn't open her mouth several times, daring to love them for treating the dead person as Chen Zichang, scolding the Li family in her heart for not dying well, rubbing her eyes, and holding back a tear and said: "The in-laws misunderstood, it's Xiucai who is gone, and the son-in-law of the Li family is gone." ”

Everyone in the Li family put down their chopsticks, and Mrs. Li asked in a wooden voice: "Don't talk about it, my son-in-law is selling silk outside, and he wrote a letter before, how can he say that it is gone." ”

Mrs. Chen took out a blank piece of paper from her sleeve, this blank paper was still begged for by Zhang from the mourning soldiers and given to her, and the name on it was clearly written, how she died, and when she died, all of which were listed on it: "The funeral table has been sent, and the soldiers sent by the Xuzhou government have sent it this evening." ”

Mrs. Li was illiterate, but Li Yuntian snatched it over, he followed Chen Xiucai to know some words, and he didn't know the others, but Chen Zimin always recognized the three words.

Mrs. Li asked in a loud voice: "Is it true, but don't it be fake?" ”

Old Man Chen took it from his son's hand and looked at it, he was silent for a long time, and was urged by Mrs. Li to be anxious, and suddenly fell on the chair, and the mourning table fell into the soup, and the words on it were blurred. Mrs. Li sighed, put down her chopsticks, and cried bitterly on the table.

To do enough play, Mrs. Chen wiped her eyes, snuggled up to Mrs. Li and patted her thigh: "My hard-working son, I said let's be honest and be a teacher at home, he wants to go to Yuhang to do business, that business is so easy to do, look at it being swallowed by the Dragon King, big sister, what can I do if I leave my eldest daughter-in-law." ”

That's a really poignant thing to say. The three daughters-in-law of the Li family are all soft-hearted people, and when they heard that their brother-in-law was gone, they thought that their sister's life could be endured, and it was difficult to persuade their mother-in-law at this time, so they cried with their mother-in-law.

Old Man Li gasped after a long time, and slapped the table and shook a bowl: "Don't cry, I'll let Yuntian go to Xuzhou Mansion to inquire later." ”

Immediately after preparing the carriage and horses, Li Yuntian rushed to Xuzhou Mansion non-stop. borrowed a flat car from a neighbor's house, and the second son took Mr. Li and Mrs. Li to Li's house together, Qiao's followed, and the rest stayed at home to wait for news.

Entering the gate of the Chen family, the moon had already risen. Mrs. Li got out of the flat car and rushed into the north wing, hugged Li and cried: "My hard-working daughter, you didn't have a good mother-in-law's house, and you were tortured by your stepmother all day long. ”

Mrs. Chen rushed in with her little feet, she wanted to hug Li and cry together, but Mrs. Li's words made her unable to get off the stage. Qi Ping, who was closest to her, cried, Qi Ping was a little clever, wiped his tears and broke free from her arms, and threw himself into Mrs. Li's arms and sobbed.

Old Man Li was helped into the room by Qiao's family, his face was calm and silent, and Chen Xuejiao and Chen Qi'an saw that the tears held back by their grandfather flowed out. Old Man Li was silent, and touched his grandson's head, which had the power to calm people's hearts.

"Don't cry yet, the matter is still inconclusive, even the name on the funeral table is not necessarily true, as long as no one is found, it is not destined to live and die." As soon as Old Man Li's words came out, everyone stopped crying.

Chen Xuejiao and Chen Qi'an's eyes lit up, and hope suddenly ignited in their hearts.

Mrs. Chen didn't mean that Old Man Li said this, she was stunned, and forgot to cry. She also thought that the Li family had gotten the news, and for the sake of her daughter, she hurried to find someone for the Li family to remarry. The people of Xuzhou are open, and the woman who died of the man remarries, and no one can keep it, if the in-laws oppose it, even if the official sues the widow, the widow will win. Mrs. Chen originally planned to burn her clothes, shoes and socks if she couldn't find Chen Xiucai, dig a hole in the ancestral grave, pile up a mound of clothes, and take advantage of the 100-day hot filial piety of the Li family to send the Li family to marry, even if that Xiucai really didn't die, he could still turn around when he came back.

Mrs. Chen's face changed a few times, she thought about it in her heart, and said with hypocrisy: "It's not that I said, Da'er was originally stabbed in the autumn, but it wasn't that when the king of Hades let him go, but he was kind and let him stay for a few more days." ”

This was said heartbreakingly, Chen Xuejiao glared at her fiercely, and Mrs. Li got up the feather duster on the bed and chased her. Mrs. Chen raised her arms and dodged for a while and continued: "I only pity the eldest daughter-in-law, don't worry, if you can't be my daughter-in-law in the future, you will be my daughter-in-law, and if you remarry the Chen family, you won't stop you, and in the future, when the daughter walks around and calls me a mother, I will be the same." ”

Chen Qi'an and Chen Xuejiao heard this, and drove her out in unison. This person is vicious, not to mention that Chen Xiu is her stepson, even if it is two surnames, everyone will shed a tear when they die. I didn't see such a person, and the dead man didn't see the body, so she rushed to persuade her daughter-in-law to remarry.

Li had cried several times, and the tears seemed to be exhausted, and Mrs. Li hugged her and cried, but she was silent. Mu Mu leaned on the pillow without making a sound, and only moved his head when he heard Mrs. Chen say that he would remarry. opened his mouth and asked Xue Jiao what time it was, Xue Jiao agreed, and Li was about to get up and cook again and said that Qi An Qiping still had to practice calligraphy. Mrs. Li held her down, and a bubble of tears came out again.

Li's wooden said: "Mother, you can rest too." After speaking, he struggled to stand up, went to the pot house and brought a pot of noodles in, Mu Mu's four bowls were full, and Xuejiao's children couldn't eat it, and they didn't dare to persuade their mother very much.

Seeing Li's appearance, Mrs. Li was even more uncomfortable than her crying, and quietly wiped her tears and said to a few children: "Your mother is not stupid like this, do you want to ask a Lang Zhong to take a look." (To be continued)
