Chapter 261: Let her understand
It was already noon, and Lin Zhang slipped down from the very hot kang and walked out of the house slowly.
The weather was warm and the vegetable garden smelled of fresh, earthy scent. She squinted her eyes and looked at the second son and daughter-in-law at the end of the vegetable garden working hard to turn the ground, Lin Zhu carried the teapot and poured water for them, as if she was saying something, and the three of them laughed. Her son's family of three is happy, and she knows that she can't penetrate it.
It stands to reason that it is natural to live in her son's house, but she feels a little out of place. In the morning, her daughter-in-law called her for breakfast, but she pretended not to wake up and did not answer.
I'm hungry right now. I wanted to call my daughter-in-law to cook for me, but I couldn't.
She went into the kitchen and saw a few black chaff gnocchi on the board. Reluctantly, she walked in and picked up one and took a bite. It was cold and hard, and her old teeth were gone. Only the anterior incisors can be used for strenuous peristalsis.
She huffed and threw the bran gnocchi back on the board and walked out the kitchen door. Twisting his fat body, he walked to the other end of the vegetable garden.
I've never lived with this son, and even though I'm forced to be helpless now, I can't break the rules. The daughter-in-law should serve her mother-in-law, not only to serve, but also to serve only as promises.
She has been living in the vegetable garden for seven or eight days, and she eats thick and black bran noodles every day, and when she eats them, she feels sick to her stomach when she sees black noodles.
When I was at home, I often ate the last meal but didn't eat the next meal, but every month the second child's family also had some rations and silver. With a little bit of it, you won't eat bran noodles every day.
This chaff is the black skin of white flour, that is, the slightly finer bran. This thing is usually used to feed livestock. People eat, it's too coarse. Discomfort in the stomach. After eating, it is pantothenic acid in the stomach. Young people can't stand being busy, and she naturally can't stand it at this age.
But she couldn't say anything. She used all the food of the three to feed her two sons and two families.
But she really can't stand her old stomach when she eats like this every day.
"Mother, why are you here. Zhu'er Niang also said that after turning this point, I will go to give you a steamed bun. Mother, there is no food at home, and this little black bran noodles is secretly given by Chef Zhu. Eat bran noodles every day, my son is afraid that your stomach can't stand it. Mother, you see that chickens have laid so many eggs these days, so I'll make a poached egg for each of us. ”
There were so many eggs for her, but she wouldn't let them move.
Hearing his son say this, Lin Zhang's family couldn't say anything. Originally, she wanted to question. I won't give her food......
Lin Zhu smiled and said, "Dad." My grandmother's eggs are all left for silver, so don't touch them. In case grandma was upset that day and said we ate her eggs. The silver exchanged for these eggs will also be given to the great sage of Noble Treasure. ”
Lin Zhu said that there was a basis for this, in the past, Lin Zhang would come to check on the eggs laid by the hens she thought were hers almost every day. I will also take the trouble to touch the chicken butt to confirm. Although Lin Zhu's family also secretly embezzled three a day, they ate breakfast. But they were all afraid.
These days of Lin Zhang's in the vegetable garden. Cai Er felt that he ate bran vegetables every day, and he couldn't bear it. I didn't take out a few catties of white noodles hidden in the small vegetable cellar on the first day, and I didn't dare to do it in the past few days.
He had already offered to make an egg for his wife several times. Lin Zhang's refused. He said that he would stay and save up fifty for silver.
The silver she exchanged was naturally used to feed the big family in Xiezhuang Pit.
Lin Zhu's words made Lin Zhang's family feel that he couldn't hold his face, and it was too eccentric to search for the second son to make up for the eldest son and the third son.
But Lin Zhu was right, that's what she planned. In fact, she wanted to go back the day after she came to the vegetable garden, she was worried that Noble would not be taken care of, and she was worried that Daxian would not have enough to eat, and she was worried about her two unlucky sons. I even thought about how she would live there if no one came to invite her back.
But she came out angry, no one came to invite, and she was embarrassed to go back.
was told by Lin Zhu, and her old face suddenly sank. A big pancake with a face full of meat, the old face was scared to death, and he couldn't pay for his life in front of the three of them.
Cai Er Cai Er Niangzi was suddenly so frightened that her face turned white, and Cai Er Niangzi's lips trembled. "Mother, mother," I didn't say anything after calling for a long time.
The mother-in-law lived in the vegetable garden for seven or eight days this time, without any noise or noise, what to do and what to eat, which is very different from her usual high-flying and domineering image. But she felt terrible, and always felt that it was a precursor to a storm.
Maybe Lin Zhu's big truth provoked the incident. She subconsciously glanced at Cai Er, and Cai Er was also looking at her.
The two of them smiled bitterly tacitly.
Only Lin Zhu was not afraid at all in her heart, she was waiting for this old witch to exert her power, she used to think that she was an old man, and she didn't care much about everything.
This time, we must let her understand the truth that she doesn't understand when she is old.
She looked at Lin Zhang with a smile and said, "Grandma, don't be angry. What I'm saying is true. You can also see that my father and mother get up before dawn to work, and the family is secretly pitiful for this bit of chaff, and there is no superfluity. You know that there is not much left of the hens you stored in the garden, and my mother is afraid that grandma will be angry with you, so she will secretly collect the house for you. If you look at that basket of eggs, half of them are from people's houses. ”
She spoke in a nice voice and with a smile.
Lin Zhang's gloomy old face was hot, but he couldn't see the color.
She laughed a few times with a slightly embarrassed dry smile and said, "Zhu'er, grandma is not angry. Grandma also knows that she has suffered your father over the years, but grandma can't help it. Who let grandma give birth to such a son who can withstand trouble. You said that your uncle and third uncle, there are ten people in the two families combined, and our family is not prosperous. Let's eat all the people in the family, Noble Daxian is still young, and he can't starve to death. ”
The daughter said this, Lin Zhang's was not angry, and Cai Erniang looked at Lin Zhang's very incomprehensibly. She hasn't said if she wants to eat poached eggs yet.
She is kind-hearted, and she has eaten bran noodles for her mother-in-law for so many days, and she can't get over it in her heart.
Lin Zhang finally nodded and said, "The second one's family, since the second one said it." Let's just make some poached eggs. Catch more pickled eggplant, then you don't want sour cabbage, it's uncomfortable to eat too much. ”
Eggplant is a rich dish, and a lot of oil is used when pickling. The pickles pickled by Cai Erniangzi are not as salty as others, not very salty, and accompanied by a lot of seasonings, which taste greasy and greasy. It's no better than sour cabbage with black bran noodles, and the stomach is thicker when you eat it.
Cai Er Niangzi hurriedly agreed to put down the farm tools in her hand and wiped her hands on her body. The mother-in-law finally spoke, and she didn't have to eat the chaff noodles that looked uncomfortable today......
As someone's daughter-in-law. Usually my mother-in-law is not in the vegetable garden. She can decide what to eat, her mother-in-law is here, she doesn't dare to make her own decisions.
Cai Er hurriedly supported Lin Zhang with a smiling face and said, "Mother, that's right." You said that my eldest brother and third brother are all such big people. The big beam is not small. They are all old enough to provide for their families. Don't worry about them when you're old. Just eat it yourself. “
Usually he doesn't dare to say these things directly.
Lin Zhang said with a long sigh. "Second child, my mother knows these truths, but I pity the hearts of parents all over the world. I can't let go of my mother's heart. ”
Lin Zhu followed behind one after another, saying that Jiang was still old and spicy, but he didn't expect this Lin Zhang to be quite old and spicy. This visit to the vegetable garden seems to have been reborn.
It seems to be the same as parents all over the world, but everyone in the world is a parent with meat in the palm of her hand and the back of her hand, and she is so eccentric?
She said loudly, "Grandma, you can't help it. You're in your seventies, and sooner or later you'll have to take that step, and when you close your eyes, will you be able to control them? So, if you can eat it now, eat it as soon as possible, so as not to lose your appetite. ”
"How does this boy speak? Not a spark of decency. ”
Although Lin Zhu's words are all in it, it is not good.
He hurriedly glanced at Lin Zhang's family, Lin Zhang's old face did not have the usual frightening changes at all, and he also smiled a smile that was more ugly than crying and said, "Second brother, what Zhu'er said is also right." My mother is over seventy, and she can live for a few days, and when the time comes, she will not be able to worry about anything when her eyes are closed. Second child, go and tell your daughter-in-law to bring her two poached eggs. ”
Cai Er agreed and shouted loudly to the kitchen: "Zhu'er Niang, give Niang two eggs in a purse." ”
Is she the only one who eats two? A family of three eats bran these days.
Lin Zhu also shouted loudly: "Mother, my grandmother said, two poached eggs per person, put more salt, sprinkle some green onions, and put some sesame oil." ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for Lin Zhang to speak, trotted all the way, and ran lightly to the kitchen.
Lin Zhang rolled his eyes angrily, helplessly watching Lin Zhu run away.
Just now, she was just embarrassed by Cai Erlinzhu's words, so she agreed to make a poached egg for everyone to eat. Later, she was so greedy that she felt that one was not enough, and wanted to bring herself two.
As an old man, the highest elder in the family, he should enjoy a little special treatment.
But this girl who is a strange girl in the ancient forest, just like that, will eat three more eggs. Three eggs, that's three days of breakfast for my little grandson.
She plucked up her own strength, and a little angrily shook off Caier's support and said, "Don't hold it, your mother is not old enough to walk." ”
The two of them are honest and understand in their hearts.
Knowing that it was her daughter who made her mother unhappy, she didn't dare to speak more, so she silently let go of the arm that was supporting Lin Zhang and followed behind her.
Lin Zhang's took a few steps, this time he lived in the vegetable garden to take refuge, and he couldn't play tricks like usual. Live well, the people of Yanfu may not say anything, in case of trouble, they will be kicked out and homeless.
and Lin Laoqi, who was shrewd and didn't suffer at all, warned her very solemnly when he left, reminding her: Don't provoke this Lin plant in the future, if you don't make it, you will catch up with the family.
She really didn't understand what this yellow-haired girl was, she didn't dare to look at the Yanfu princess, and the dignified prince of the Marquis would look at her differently.
Since the shrewd old seven have said so, if you can't afford to provoke it, you won't mess with it. No matter how much she cares about the past, she just acts as if nothing has happened.
Cai Erniang's cooking skills are good, just a little processing, floating green onions, oily poached egg soup, swarthy sour and spicy pickled eggplant, and served up.
Cai Er handed the fast chopsticks to Lin Zhang with both hands and said, "Mother, you eat." The bran dough is a little hard and soaked to eat. ”
After speaking, he broke the black and hard bran ball little by little.
Lin Shu on the side sighed silently.
This father is so filial that as long as Lin Zhang's face changes a little, he will keep asking back and forth. Filial piety to the point that he did not take out the white noodles hidden in the vegetable cellar for his mother to eat, sighing and regretting for several days. The second lady of the cabbage, Lin Zhu, and her daughter, who gave up this idea, were a little uncomfortable. It seems that they are blocking Nanaji's filial piety.
Cai Er's uncomplaining filial piety made Lin Zhu not know whether to respect or pity.
She couldn't bear to teach Lin Zhang a lesson with a plan that she had planned for a few nights.
This old witch is really hateful, even to the point that she should not be called ineffective by crying every day.
But the father who was punished like that was also who loved him.
She gritted her teeth and swallowed the resentment in her heart along with the poached egg.
Lin Zhang's changed his previous arrogance, and said very kindly: "Zhu'er, you eat more, you are growing your body,"
It's really a dog spitting out ivory.
Lin Zhu gave her a mocking smile back.
Although his father was too poisoned by feudal ideology, he was indiscriminately stupid and filial.
But revenge is not human. This old woman who is comparable to Gargamel bullied her mother and oppressed her father, treating her as an animal, no matter how foolish and filial her father was, she had to let her know that she knew that she would not end well if she did something bad and hurt people, and she would be punished.
Just like Lin Yun.
After eating, she smiled and said to Cai Er: "Dad, my grandmother has lived in our house for so long, and there is nothing to eat." In this way, I went to Chef Zhu and begged him to let us slaughter an old hen to make up for my grandmother's body. ”
Cai Er hurriedly said: "Go quickly, go quickly." ”
There are forty or fifty chickens in the vegetable garden, twenty of which are fostered by Lin Zhang's family, and the rest are all in the house, which is under the management of the kitchen of Yan Mansion.
Although Cai Er has a good relationship with Chef Zhu, it is better with the iron housekeeper. But he didn't dare to make such a request, and people were enough to take care of him.
But Zhu'er is different, Carefree Boy values her very much, and Chef Zhu, the iron housekeeper, treats her very well.
He knows very well that the so-called care of those is a daughter's face.
As soon as Lin Zhang's heard that there was chicken to eat, his cloudy old eyes suddenly flashed with greed.
But she was nervous in her heart, this ghost girl lost money and knew what she had done to her, but she still had to slaughter the old hen for herself.
What do you mean?
Lin Zhu got Caier's nod, got up and walked out with a smile.
I walked to the yard and looked back at the house. He smiled coldly.
Lin Zhang, you just wait and see.
If I said that I didn't care about it again and again before, it was because of my poor father's stupidity, and also because I wore this time and space in a daze, and I didn't honor my parents. My father regarded himself as his own child, and he was not concerned with an old woman.
Not now, there is a lower limit to being a man, and this Lin Zhang really crossed her bottom line this time. (To be continued......)
