Chen Xuejiao walked to the door of the upper room, hid under the eaves, and heard the voice of Mrs. Chen coming from the house. Different from the usual fierce voice, today, Mrs. Chen's tone was extremely gentle and gentle.

There must be a demon in the abnormal, Chen Xuejiao was startled, she didn't immediately lift the curtain and go in, but stopped at the door, she wanted to hear what kind of medicine was sold in Mrs. Chen's gourd.

"Boss, you are running a boat outside, and the grievances you suffer are not light, you see how white and clean you used to be a teacher at home, but now you go out, your face is black and your body is thin, and my heart is uncomfortable as a mother." Inside the house, Mrs. Chen sat on the bed and whispered to Chen Xiucai.

Chen Xiucai went out to run the boat for so long, a yard to live, Mrs. Chen has never come to ask about the big house, it is the busiest @▲, ○anshuba.Wheat harvest and autumn harvest season, the old man Chen led the people in the room to give the big house a hand, Mrs. Chen took Qiao as a gesture, and cried with her old face. What she does to Dafang and Chen Xiucai, Chen Xiucai has always been like a mirror in her heart, but it can't be changed by her words. If you really cared about him, you would have shed tears as early as the day he came to the house, and you still have to wait until now. It's just that in the way of morality and face, she said it with emotion, and Chen Xiu couldn't help but answer.

"Let my mother worry, although it is not as bitter as at home outside, it is not as bitter as I imagined." Chen Xiucai smiled lightly and perfunctorily.

No matter how much Mrs. Chen and Chen Xiucai are separated, she is Chen Xiucai's nominal mother after all, and morally speaking, Chen Xiucai must answer her words.

"Boss, I heard the news that you were killed last time. Niang Ke was scared to death, Niang has been hiding in our village for half her life, and at most she has been to Baitu Town. Where do you know the situation outside, and the people sent can't find out why, the funeral table issued by the official has come out, so we can't believe it. Mrs. Chen said, rubbing her red eyes with her hand, and rubbing a bubble of tears, "I thought you would go like this." The eldest daughter-in-law is still young, how can she live with her four children, if I let her stay at home. If you don't scold me, then the Li family will scold me to death, so I will find a way to let Qi An and Xue Ru stay in the Chen family, and your daughter-in-law will take Qi Ping and Xue Jiao to live a good life. You've heard about it, too. I've found a matchmaker. The person has also been found, he is a craftsman, your daughter-in-law will not suffer a loss when she remarries, and she received your letter when she was waiting for her relatives, I was so happy that I didn't close my eyes overnight, but this time, I am afraid that your daughter-in-law will hate me. ”

Chen Xiucai knew that the news of his encounter with water bandits came to his family, and Li was upset for fear of him. He never told him about it, but he still heard a few words from Grandma Xianglian next door. Now that these words came out of Mrs. Chen's mouth, he felt bad in his heart.

If he was really kidnapped by the bandits last time and thrown into the water to feed the fish, leaving the Li family and the four children, how would he live that day. Don't forget the insult of the surname, I'm afraid that the Chen family will bully the orphans and widows without even a place to stay, he has eaten the pain of not having a mother, and knows the sorrow, if it wasn't for him to study, his sister would not have been able to marry Wang Baozhu's bastard, and he was forced to die at a young age.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiucai felt more and more guilty about the Li family and several children.

Mrs. Chen carefully looked at Chen Xiucai's expression, and saw that a mist appeared in Chen Xiucai's eyes, and thought that her words just now moved her, so she raised her hand and stroked her gray sideburns, squeezed out a few tears and continued: "I heard that you came back from the south and brought a few large boxes of things, it's not that my mother wants to ask you what you brought, but Wen Yan and Wen Ying are both your sisters, you look at the gift that your daughter-in-law gave Wen Ying back is gold and gold, why did you only give Wen Yan a satin and a silver hairpin, everyone outside knows that you have made a fortune, Wen Yan went back with these things, not enough for people to talk about, this is not your sister's face, but your face, our surname Chen's face. ”

Sure enough, the viper highlighted the venomous hyacinth. Mrs. Chen spared a big circle of bends, and sure enough, she went around to the real purpose.

Chen Xuejiao saw through the curtain that there was not only Mrs. Chen in the room, but Wen Yan was sitting next to her, and Wen Yan was still the same as she had ever seen before, constantly knocking melon seeds and eating fruits.

Their mother and daughter are too finely shaved, and they don't want to think about having a relative in everything, Wen Ying and Chen Xiucai are born to a mother, belly to belly, she Wen Yan and Chen Xiucai are separated by two bellies, this is not the main thing, the important thing is that Wen Yan is usually indifferent to the big house, and he has never had this big brother in his heart, at this time he smelled the smell of gold and silver, and pounced like a hungry wolf.

Chen Xuejiao sneered twice in her heart with disdain.

"Mother, I didn't bring much back, the capital of doing business outside is on credit, and this hasn't been returned to others. The family has a lot of expenses, Qi Ping and Qi An are studying, just buying pen, ink, paper and inkstone is a big expense, Xue Ru and Jing Hao are both old and face to say goodbye, this dowry has not yet been settled. Chen Xiucai said with an impassive face, "As for the things given to the two younger sisters, Qi An's mother has always been measured and will not be biased against anyone." ”

Chen Xiucai's words were not leaky, Mrs. Chen's face turned red and white when she heard this, the honest boss who had always been pinched in her hands changed her appearance after going out. She mentioned it to him yesterday, and asked him to prepare a golden crown like the Li family for Wen Yan, this morning the old man Chen didn't know how to know, and gave her a beating, she pondered for a long time, changed her strategy, endured the anger of the female family and didn't wait for her to open the banquet, and left Chen Xiucai to talk to him kindly, but he didn't expect him to not enter.

Chen Xuejiao heard Chen Xiucai say this, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, she was really afraid that Chen Xiucai would buy more things for Wen Yan for the sake of face, which would not only make Mrs. Chen even more excessive, but also hurt Li's heart.

Old Mrs. Chen lowered her head and sneered unconsciously. Chen Xiucai's words were in her ears, and she was clearly crying poor, and she was obviously unwilling to pay for the silver, so what should she do with the golden crown she promised to Wen Yan. According to her previous character, she must have been scolded, from Chen Xiucai to Wen Ying's three children in front of the Liu family, which one was not beaten by her, but now she resisted the urge to scold, today she only asked Chen Xiucai to promise to give Wen Yan a golden crown, and she was thinking about it in the future.

"You're having a better life now, and if you say that, won't we be even more unable to survive when we go to the house. Your father and I are too old to work, and we have no extra silver. Old Mrs. Chen lowered her voice, "Xue Ru said that it is still early, you are a man's family in the end, your daughter-in-law plans to let her stay at home for a few more years, not to mention quiet, her dowry is taken care of by the Wang family." Let's not talk about things in the distance, let's talk about things in the near world first, you promised me the golden crown yesterday, can you give your sister today. ”

When Mrs. Chen said this, she suddenly raised her head and glanced at Chen Xiucai.

Rao is Chen Xiucai was already mentally prepared, and he couldn't help but shudder in his heart. He was persuaded by Chen Xuejiao a few times yesterday that he didn't plan to give Wen Yan a golden crown, but now Mrs. Chen's words aroused his guilt about the Li family, and he made up his mind not to throw the money in his hand casually. In the past, when there was no separation, all the money he earned from teaching was handed over to Mrs. Chen, but what kind of life did his daughter-in-law and children live, if it was said that there was no way to do it at that time, but now that the family is separated, it is impossible to say that they are continuing to be controlled by the upper room.

Chen Xuejiao rolled her eyes in her heart, Chen Xiucai didn't promise to give Wen Yan the golden crown yesterday, every thing was the old lady Chen's own speculation, and Chen Xiucai's silence was regarded as a tacit acquiescence.

"Mother, you told me yesterday, I didn't respond immediately at the time because you were afraid that you wouldn't believe it, there are many places to use money at home, and there are few places to enter, Qi'an Qiping wants to study, Xue Ru and Jing Hao want to prepare a dowry, just a Xue Jiao doesn't need to go to a private school when she is young, but she hasn't enjoyed happiness since she was a child, and she is busy with life at a young age, I'm a father" Chen Xiucai said here, and the tears that were originally a little fake were also very sincere.

Mrs. Chen's face was gloomy and gloomy, look at what she said, she didn't cry poverty over and over again.

Wen Yan, who had been sitting beside Mrs. Chen without saying a word, couldn't help but snort coldly at this time. Don't waste her changing the law to please the Li family, let alone the golden crown, even a golden crown can't be fished.

Mrs. Chen talked to Chen Xiucai for a long time with a pleasant face, and when she saw that he didn't pull on the golden crown at all, she couldn't help but run out of patience.

"Boss, I'm your late mother, I know, it's hard to be a late mother, you talk about you, I raised you, you didn't care about going to the room after you split the house, I didn't ask you for anything, just begging you to give your sister a golden crown, you can't afford it, who doesn't know how many things your family brought back, you look at what your daughter-in-law wears on her head, even Xue Jiao's idea girl, all over her body is silk and satin, you say you have no money, who believes it. Boss, boss, you walk outside, aren't you afraid of people saying you're ungrateful, aren't you afraid of people poking your backbone? ”

Sure enough, Mrs. Chen exchanged for another face.

"Mother, although I have divided it, but I put you and my father in my heart, everything I have to eat will not let the second elder starve, not only me, but also the child's mother and the child also think the same as me." Chen Xiucai changed the topic and slid out.

It means that morally I can take care of the upper room, but I am not obligated to take care of others.

Old Mrs. Chen naturally heard this meaning, and her angry teeth gurgled, but she still held on: "The golden crown ......"

Xue Jiao eavesdropped outside the door for a while, and now she listened to Mrs. Chen repeatedly pulling this topic to Jin Guanzi, and she was dissatisfied, so she simply picked the door curtain and walked in from the outside.

"Dad, didn't you say that the banquet was dismissed? Mother sees that you are not going back, let me take a look. Chen Xuejiao greeted Li and Wen Yan, and said coquettishly to Chen Xiucai.

"Your grandmother is talking to me about something." Chen Xiucai said.

"What's the matter?" Chen Xuejiao didn't wait for Mrs. Chen and Wen Yan to greet her, sat next to Chen Xiucai, picked up the melon seeds on the table and knocked, "I was listening to what about the golden crown outside just now, and I heard something ungrateful, I was startled, our Chen family has always been a reasonable family, who is ungrateful, it is better to let the master come, let's listen together."
