Chapter Twenty-Four: The Bottom of the Box

In the past few days, Dabao remembered Yan Wuwu's words, and came and went around from time to time, which really scared Lin Zhang's family, she didn't dare to harass the women's army at will, but every day after scouting Dabao at noon, she quickly slipped over to collect a few eggs and hurried back, scolding the second lady of the vegetable without any effort.

So the day is already bright, the second lady of the vegetable Lin Zhu Niang'er is still sitting on the kang peacefully, and there is a needlework dustpan in front of the second lady, which contains needles and threads and brain rags and the like. Lin Zhu folded his clothes over and over again, changing his appearance. Her new dress had been made, still a slanted blouse, but it was more decently cut than the last, the waist was a little tighter, and the skirt was matched, a moon-white one-like pleated skirt. She always felt that when she folded it, she would press out a lot of wrinkles.

Cai Er Niangzi smiled and shook her head, her daughter cherished this new dress so much, she was really a child. She rummaged through the dustpan for a long time, and found a strand of gold thread, she was rushing to help Lin Shu make shoes, the upper was dark red, and she wanted to embroider golden flowers. She put the golden thread on the upper of her shoes to compare it and felt that it was still worthy, and began to embroider.

Lin Zhu finally folded his clothes, approached Cai Er Niangzi and said, "Mother, you don't need to make shoes first, you can still wear these shoes on your feet." Let's make your and Dad's new clothes first, and we will be busy during the New Year. ”

Cai Er Niangzi smiled gently: "Mother, let's make shoes for you first." The New Year is all for children, and it is so good for little girls to wear new and new ones. What's so good about adults, my mother and your father are so old, and they can wear new clothes anytime. ”

Lin Zhu said: "Mother, that's not what you said. There are still many opportunities for children to wear them in the future, and as their parents get older, they don't look so good in clothes. So, while everything looks good now, hurry up and wear it. ”

Cai Er Niangzi glanced at Lin Zhu with a smile and said, "This kid, what are you talking nonsense." My father and mother are old, what else can I look like. ”

Lin Zhu said with a smile: "Who said that, my mother is good-looking and thin." It looks good in anything. But you have to wear it quickly, or you won't be old in a few years. ”

Listening to her daughter praise herself for her good looks, Cai Er Niangzi's yellow face turned a little red, and she said a little shyly: "Zhu'er, only you say that your mother is good-looking, your father never looks at your mother, and your grandmother can't see her mother at all." Your grandmother used to talk about her mother and your grandmother's conflict. ”

"Where." Lin Zhu half leaned on the windowsill, looked outside Caier sweeping the yard with a broom and said, "My dad doesn't know how much he likes you, you didn't see how nervous my grandmother was when he bullied you." ”

"What's the use of being nervous, he doesn't even dare to put a fart." Cai Er Niangzi said sadly: "My mother married your father at the age of sixteen, and it has been sixteen years. From the day you got married, your grandmother has been in charge of the house, and even the dowry accompanied by your grandmother's family has never been seen again. Over the years, your father and I have been taken care of by the iron housekeeper, and the Yan Mansion has given a lot of monthly salaries, and we have all taken care of food, drink and clothing, but my mother has never seen a copper plate and has never eaten a few full meals. I used to want to make you a pair of shoes, but I didn't have the money to buy uppers, I didn't pave the lining steps to make the soles, and I didn't even have a single cotton thread. Mother's needlework dustpan is still your aunt came to see your mother some time ago, and secretly left her to your mother, saying that she would give you sewing and mending. ”

Lin Zhu looked at her mother sympathetically, if she had been in the past, she would have felt that these words were absolutely lies, and she was deliberately slandering her mothers-in-law, where in reality was there such a mother-in-law who managed her daughter-in-law so harshly.

It's too late for the mother-in-law to please her daughter-in-law.

But now she really believes that the ancient mother-in-law is really more vicious than Huang Shiren's mother.

There is indeed a little daughter-in-law like my mother who suffers and suffers.

She comforted and said: "Mother, my father can't help it, my father is a filial son, it's all because grandma is too partial." In the future, we should not follow her everywhere. In the future, all the money earned by the daughter will be handed over to her mother. ”

"Give it to my mother?" Cai Er Niangzi was startled: "Mother doesn't dare to ask for it." Where there is a woman in charge, if you want to give it, it is also for your father. ”

"Just give it to my mother." Lin Zhu said firmly: "I haven't heard anyone say, a man is a rake." A woman is a box. The rake is not as good as the box. That is to say, the man earns money outside and gives it to the woman, so that the woman can take care of the house. ”

"Whoever says it, it's all nonsense." Cai Er Niangzi glanced at her daughter lovingly: "How can a woman be in charge of the house and still have a box." ”

"That's all said." Lin Shu took out five coins of silver from his pocket and said, "My mother is so capable, she must be a good box." I still have five coins of silver here, and I will press the bottom of the box for my mother first. ”

These five coins of silver were left over after Jin Xiaoguang rewarded her with a tael of silver that day after buying something, she originally wanted to stay and press her pockets, but this was the first money she saw here.

But my mother has lived for more than 30 years and has no money, so it's really pitiful, so let's give it all to her.

Cai Er Niangzi's eyes suddenly widened more round than a cow's eyes, five coins of silver are five hundred copper plates, ten copper plates are a pound of white noodles, but fifty pounds of white flour money is her monthly salary.

She put down the work in her hand, looked at Lin Zhu and asked, "Where did you come from?" ”

Lin Zhu was stared at by her and felt a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "On that day, I went to the capital with Master Wu to entertain Jin Gongzi, and Jin Gongzi rewarded half of the comb, grate, rouge and gouache, and the remaining half." ”

Cai Erniangzi breathed a sigh of relief, looked outside in a panic with a pair of eyes, reached out to take the silver and put it into her arms, and whispered: "Those things cost five dollars of silver, what a loser." The lady will help you put it away and buy a dowry later. ”

This mother is really good, she thinks about her daughter in everything, but she doesn't need it.

She shook her head and said, "Mother, you spend it yourself." Buy whatever you want. You don't have to worry about your daughter's dowry, and your daughter is still young. There is no hurry. ”

Cai Er Niangzi said: "It's not too small to say small." After the New Year, it's time to eat a twelve-year-old meal, and it's fifteen or sixteen if you save up. Poor daughter, my mother doesn't know how old you are, your birthday. ”

The first time I saw my daughter five years ago, I shook my head when I asked her everything, just asked her how old she was, she stretched out five fingers,

Lin Zhu shook her head blankly, she really didn't know this, she just wanted not to tell her birthday in her previous life. Then I heard the door open, accompanied by the sound of chaotic footsteps, as if a lot of people had come in.

Frightened, Cai Erniang hurriedly got off the kang and dusted the needlework, and the fabric of her new clothes was hidden in the small hole on the side of the kang.

It doesn't seem to be grandma's footsteps, they are not so powerful.

Lin Zhu hurriedly put his little face against the window and looked out, but it was Yan Wuwu Dabao who rushed in with a group of half-sized children kicking a ball.

Caier in the garden nodded hurriedly and greeted him, only to see Yan Wuwu wave his hand at him and say something. Cai Er was busy walking into the vegetable field to clean up the debris.

After a while, Yan Wuwu took a group of half-sized children into the bare vegetable garden and kicked the ball.
