Chapter 7: Sister-in-law
Chapter VII
Cheng Wanyu took someone to buy the Qu family girl arrogantly, which looks quite exaggerated, but it's nothing if you think about it.
After all, people are the main room where eight sedan chairs are married into the door, if Cheng Wanyu doesn't spend money to buy people, then the girl of the Qu family is a cheap commodity without a matchmaker. How do you look at Cheng Wanyu is quite kind, and then look at Cheng Wanyu recently and she has not been holding a shelf, and the people in the village are not so chewy.
Despite this, the villagers have to work in the fields every day at dawn. At noon, I went home to do laundry and cook, serve my in-laws, and sew and mend at night. There are still a few people like Cheng Wanyu in the entire Xilianghe, who can still be spoiled by their mother-in-law when they are idle every day?
At least in the Cui family, Cui Xiyue can't look down on this second sister-in-law. Why does sister-in-law Ruan Sanniang have to cook in the kitchen every day, and she has to follow the mother-in-law hired by the family to serve the silkworm baby. Cheng Wanyu can be like a young lady, staying in the house all day long, stretching out her clothes to open her mouth?
Since she is the daughter-in-law of the Cui family, she must at least abide by the rules. Although she has two maids, at least she has to be pretty, right? What's more, she is still a woman who eloped with her second brother and made her father and mother laugh at by the villagers.
An abandoned woman, are you embarrassed to dress up every day? Why is your face so big?
Cui Xiyue was indignant and put on a cold face to show Cheng Wanyu. Cheng Wanyu knew what Cui Xiyue was thinking, and she didn't know anything like her at all. Someday, Trixie will thank herself, because she knows what kind of disaster will befall Trixiyue.
In the evening, after dinner, the family sat in the courtyard to cool off. Xiaocui cut the watermelon and put herbal tea on the table. The family sat together, talking, laughing, and having fun.
Cui Xiyue watched Cheng Wanyu holding a sandalwood fan and sitting on a chair and shaking it. In her heart, the Cheng family was originally a vulgar countryman, but she just relied on her father to make some money. I also learned to be a young lady in the city, and it's disgusting to pretend.
She turned her head and said to Ping Po with a smile: "Mother, there is nothing to do left and right." Why don't we make a bet? It's better for everyone to make a song than to sit like this now! ”
Ping Po smiled lovingly: "Then how to bet it?" ”
Cui Xiyue looked up with a smile on her face, and Cheng Wanyu looked at her sister-in-law. I chuckled in my heart, I had been in contact with her for more than ten years in my previous life, as long as she smiled 'honestly', she must have a ghost idea in her heart.
"Every time I go into the city with my dad to see the lanterns, there are lantern riddles on them. Why don't we guess the riddle too, and everyone will come up with one. If you can't guess, you will be punished! Cui Xiyue's mention made Cui Xizheng, who was drowsy on the side, wake up all of a sudden.
As the youngest son of the Cui family, he is still studying. The odds of winning are the greatest, and I am confident that others can't win against me.
Cui Ming, the vegetable gardener, waved his hand and said truthfully: "I can't do it, I can't do it." You play, I watch you play! ”
Some people in the Cui family want to watch the excitement, and some people are eager to try. In the end, it was determined that the two elders watched the excitement, and there was one person at the head of each room. Cui Xibin, Cheng Wanyu, Cui Ximin, and Cui Xiyue came to the game first, and let others see how this is played.
"I'll come first!" Cui Xibin, as the elder brother, was the first to speak: "People give nicknames to old family thieves, the older they get, the darker their hair becomes!"
Cui Xizheng was the first to react, clapping his hands and smiling and pointing at the eldest brother and said, "Sparrow!" ”
At this time, everyone understood that the sparrow was not what ordinary people call a house thief. Cui Ming, the vegetable gardener, already understood how this was playing, and continued to watch a few children messing around with great interest.
"It's my turn!" Cheng Wanyu put down the watermelon peel in her hand and said a riddle briskly: "Wearing a red hat and colorful clothes, she never sings, and she hangs her voice every day." ”
"I know!" As soon as Cheng Wanyu started, Ping Po thought of it. She hurriedly replied: "This one we have in our house, it is the big rooster in the backyard!" ”
Xiaocui had never seen that she could play like this, and she happily pulled Xiaohong on the side and shouted. The long-term workers who were resting in the corner of the courtyard also sat over with wooden benches in twos and threes to watch the excitement when they heard the words here.
Cui Xizheng is a scholar after all, and it will naturally be slightly more difficult to talk about riddles than others. He looked at everyone with a smile, with a smug look on his face: "It's not easy for me, let's talk about what reward I have if I can't guess correctly?" ”
Ruan Sanniang sneered and said to the little uncle: "Uncle, let's get familiar with this game of white play." The next game is serious, you make a simple one first, and you point to whoever wants it in the next game. ”
Cui Xizheng nodded and spit out four words: "There is faith in the world"
Everyone was stunned, what does this mean? When Cui Xiyue heard this, she clapped her hands and applauded: "This is good, this is good." How can it be like the eldest brother and the second sister-in-law, speaking the vernacular, coaxing the child? ”
Ping Po said angrily: "You are not a child, you can tell me, what does San'er mean?" ”
Cui Xiyue tilted her head and thought very seriously: "There is faith in the world, there is faith, is this an animal?" ”
Cheng Wanyu shook her head and smiled: "Uncle, the mystery should be a wild goose, right?" ”
Cui Xizheng nodded in surprise: "Yes, second sister-in-law, it is Dayan." ”
Cui Xibin was a real person, scratched his head and asked puzzledly, "Why the wild goose?" ”
Cheng Wanyu spat out and said: "Hongyan passed the book! I see, and everyone suddenly realized. For Cui Xiyue, who didn't guess the puzzle, Ping Po was the first to come forward and joke.
"I thought you were a smart one, but the geese couldn't even guess it. If you keep going like this, you're going to lose! ”
Cui Xiyue shook her lips, unwilling to show a slight sorrow: "What's this, it's just the beginning, it's just a fluke!" ”
"I'm so lazy and doesn't work, everyone scolds her for being stupid, and I look forward to her fat death every day!" Cheng Wanyu could hear that this was Cui Xiyue's insinuation. The riddle is about a pig, but it's just scolding her for not working.
The family didn't think much about it, but Ping Po understood the meaning of her daughter's words. She frowned, glancing at her daughter. looked at the daughter-in-law's face carefully, and breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately, the second family didn't hear it.
The family is prosperous, and she doesn't want her daughter to make waves at home.
This puzzle is difficult to people, and one of the lively long-term workers in the back has a fast mouth and blurts out.
Knowing how to play, everyone was eager to try it. After all, among the lanterns in the city, if you answer the riddle correctly, there will be a gift for nothing.
Everyone has been playing here for a while, and they are familiar with it, and maybe they can guess one when they go to the city. That's so interesting, and it's also very face-saving for everyone to see.
At the beginning of the second round, Cui Xiyue pointed at Cheng Wanyu and said, "I'll ask the second sister-in-law first, if you can guess correctly, I will wash the clothes for the whole family." ”
Cheng Wanyu smiled confidently: "This is what you said, and you won't admit it if you lose at that time." Crying nose also has to wash dirty clothes! ”
"That's nature!" Anyway, I won't lose, and you can win me as a fool who doesn't recognize a few words and pester men all day long? After all, Cui Xiyue also went to school, and a few people in Donglianghe have entered the school to read and write, and they can count them all!
