"What about the county? Mother, if the price charged by the county is high, let's divide it out, and your grandmother can't control you when you do embroidery during the day, and you don't have to light the lamp and spend your eyes, and you don't need to do rough work, how good! β
Li Xiaoran's naΓ―ve words made Fu Shi laugh, "Silly boy, how can anyone who doesn't do rough work in this life, who will cook the meal?" Who washes the clothes? Who feeds the chicken? Who's going to clean up the house? I have to go to the field when the farm is busy. Besides, the mother is embroidered with a veil, the county is so far away, one is inconvenient, and the other is that the mother has no good patterns, and it can't be sold at a high price. β
However, her daughter's words reminded her that before she went to the ground, because she lived in Ye's house, it was not easy to catch chickens, so she could do some embroidery work during the day and ask Brother Ye to help bring it to the county to sell, and she could also subsidize some household use.
"Then tomorrow, your Uncle Ye will come back and ask him to help bring this handkerchief over and sell it." Fu Shi made up his mind and carefully put away the veil and satin.
There was a banging knock on the door outside, and a daughter-in-law of the Ye family went over to open the door, Li Xiaoran was puzzled by this point before, the Ye family is so rich, why isn't it divided into inner and outer courtyards like everyone else? Moreover, she didn't seem to have seen where the servants of the Ye family lived.
Ye Changsheng knew her doubts and explained to her with a smile, "Uncle Ye's family has just lived a little better, these people are mainly to help me transport vegetables out, they don't need them for some small tasks, they all live in the house behind Uncle Ye's house." β
Hua told her and Fu, "The family has a small population, and it is not a big family, so what kind of inner courtyard and outer courtyard are just jokes for outsiders." Besides, the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard were divided, and some servants lived in, which felt strange and awkward, and it was not as comfortable as before. That's good, let them help with some work if they have a job, and they can usually do some of their own work. β
Then the door of the east wing was opened, Li Yihai stood at the door, his face was very angry, and after seeing Fu's, he sighed slightly, "Second sister-in-law, eldest sister, they came back from the county and wanted to see you, so my mother asked you to go back!" β
When Fu Shi heard that the eldest sister was back, he was a little panicked, "I, I know, I'll go right away." Li Xiaoran was vigilant, could it be that this aunt is also like Zhang's, she is an unreasonable shrew?" Mother, third uncle, I'm going too. β
Li Yihai looked at his little niece's eyes full of pity and sympathy, he half-squatted and said softly: "Ran'er is good, my aunt has something to do with your mother, is it okay for Ran'er to play with her brothers at home?" β
"It's not good, my brothers are playing in the backyard, and Ran'er wants to accompany her mother." Li Xiaoran now feels that being young has the advantage of being young, and he can be coquettish and cute at any time. In the end, Fu Shi didn't resist his daughter in the end, and told Hua Shi to take her to the old mansion. Hua Shi looked at her with some concern, and whispered: "Brother and sister, remember what my sister-in-law said that day." Fu Shi listened and said solemnly: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, for the sake of a few children, I will not be as confused as before." β
On the way back to the old house, Li Yihai was in front and muttered for a long time before saying, "Second sister-in-law, you have to be prepared for Ran'er's affairs." Li Xiaoran became even more vigilant when he heard this, ready to prepare? What to prepare? That ruthless grandparents didn't want to beat their own ideas! "Mother, mother, you can't do without Ran'er......" Her heart suddenly felt a little sad, this kind of person is a knife, and I feel really bad for fish and meat.
"Don't worry, Ran'er, my mother won't want Ran'er, and my mother won't let people bully my Ran'er casually." Fu Shi said with a firm expression, hugged her and repeated again. Li Xiaoran's heart settled down a little, looking at how good her father and mother have been to her in the past few days, she shouldn't do anything unfavorable to her!
In the old house, in addition to the family that Li Xiaoran saw that day, there was also the youngest son Li Yijiang, who was not at home during the Chinese New Year, and this time he also came back with the eldest son and daughter Li Yufen's family who came back from the county. Of course, when they heard that the second child Li Yihe had gone out separately, their reactions were different.
"Dad, how can you kick the second brother out like this, how much he has done for this family, anyone with eyes can see it, Dad, you are so disappointing." Li Yijiang was brought up by his second sister-in-law since he was a child, so he naturally has a lot of feelings for his second brother's family. He has developed a clever mouth outside, and although his personality is a little exquisite, he still dares to say what he should say at home.
"What bastard? It was the unfilial son who took the initiative to move out, he now has hard wings, his heart is big, he doesn't want to support his family, he thinks we are all burdensome, hum, naturally moved out early to live his own small life. After Li Laoshi's family moved away, this mood was not smooth, and the younger son came back to accuse him of this incident, which made him feel that the majesty of the head of the family had been provoked.
Li Laoshi's eldest daughter Li Yufen's family lives in the county, and she and her son-in-law Jin Dashan opened a grocery store and a snack shop, and their lives are much better than their parents' family. Because the road is far away and not very peaceful, it is rare to come back once a year, but when Li Yihai got married in the autumn, she came back once, and this time she came back specifically for Li Xiaoran. She has a daughter and two sons, the eldest daughter Jin Hua is one year older than her aunt Li Yulan, the second son Jin Peng, and the younger son Jin Cheng are born with red lips and white teeth, and wear brocade robes.
"It must have been instigated by the slut of the Fu family, otherwise Yihe would be so good, how could he propose to split the family!" Li Yufen opened her mouth and made the Qian family and Li Yijiang frown, "However, it's okay to split up the family now, the boss is also a talent anyway, and there is still a rice every month, so it's no problem to support the family." In a few years, he will be able to take the exam, and when the time comes, let his brother-in-law pay him some travel expenses, and when he becomes a lifter, see if they regret going! β
Li Yufen is a selfish woman, for so many years, she doesn't bring many things when she goes home every year, she always complains about how sad the hard days are, and she has never funded the family for a penny.
"Alas, the family is unfortunate, the family is unfortunate, and I actually married a stirring family spirit to come to the house, alas!" Li Laoshi refers to the two daughters-in-law, after that day, Li Laoshi punished Zhang's severely, knelt on the blue brick floor of the main house for two hours, and was punished for a day not allowed to eat, and was not allowed to go back to his parents' house on the third day of junior high school.
Fu Shi led Li Xiaoran into the main house tremblingly, and when he entered the door, he called out first, "Dad, mother, eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law are also back," and then mustered up the courage to ask: "I don't know what the eldest sister wants me to do?" β
