69. Should it be
After the meal, seeing that He Shi was sitting on the seat and didn't move, Yang Liu knew that she had to say something next, she cleaned up the table with a few concubines, and then went to the stove room to brush the dishes and chopsticks, washed a plate of crisp fruit and brought it to the table, and was ready to go back to the room.
"Lady, you also sit down and listen." Li Cong spoke, and then his gaze fell on He.
When he said this, everyone's eyes fell on He.
There were a few meetings at home, whether it was intentionally avoided or Yang Liu happened to be absent, anyway, there was no place for Yang Liu, and over time, she got used to it. At first, she would feel excluded, but then she comforted herself and said that she didn't have to worry if she didn't know, and she was happy not to participate.
Should she go or stay now?
"Brother and sister, sit down." Li Qiang also said.
Yang Liu didn't answer, but also looked at He Shi and asked her to make an idea.
"Don't sit down yet, you have to be persuaded by everyone to sit down." He squinted at Yang Liu.
If you agree, you agree, you have to say something to make everyone's hearts unhappy. Yang Liu pulled her skirt and sat on the big bench again. With his feet together and staggering diagonally on the rungs under the table, his back straight, his hands slightly clasped, resting on his thighs relative to each other, his eyes paying attention to He.
"Ahem." At this time, several people in the room were uncomfortable and moved when they had a dry cough.
He was a little uncomfortable stared at by Yang Liu's gaze,
Yu and Xiao He, who were sitting on the oblique side of the willow, looked at the sitting posture of the willow intentionally or unintentionally. Especially Yu, he secretly paid attention to Yang Liu's chest several times, wondering if it was because of this sitting posture that Yang Liu's good figure was maintained. Then the gaze moves up and down. Also learn the movements of the willows, raise your head and chest.
"Now go ahead." He Shi looked at Yu Shi angrily, what others were doing. She also does what she does, and she doesn't have a long brain. Is that man the same as a man? Forget it, if you think about it any longer, you will still be suspected of disliking your daughter-in-law. Or cough dryly, and then get back to the point: "By the way, where did you just go?" ”
“……”
"Mother, we just gossiped a few words." Xiao He said.
"Oh." He nodded, then swept his eyes around, and then said, "Today's matter is still about Xiuxiu." ”
Xiuxiu's heart immediately raised, about her, did her mother find her a blind date? So fast? Who introduced it? It is certain that the other party is either crooked and cracked, or morally corrupt. Although Xiuxiu has been able to face the last blind date calmly. But there is still a shadow in her heart, and she doesn't want to be hit again in a short period of time.
"Mother"
As soon as Xiuxiu opened her mouth, He raised his hand to stop her from continuing.
"Not what you think."
Not what she thinks, what is that? Xiuxiu was a little anxious, she didn't say anything, how did He know what she thought? Who said that the mother and daughter look at men in the same way.
"When I went to your uncle's house, your aunt told me that the kid of the Zhang family intended to save this family affair." He first fixed his gaze on Xiuxiu, and then looked at the others.
"I disagree!" Li Cong immediately slapped the table and stood up, "What does that bastard kid of the Zhang family mean, what does he think he wants." Do we have to accompany him to make trouble? Our Li family is marrying a daughter, but we are not begging others to marry. Treat us like monkeys? I disagreed, refused. ”
"Who did you learn from slapping the table and glaring, and your temper has grown, right?" He glanced at Li Cong. "Sit down and talk to me, I'm still here, and there's no one in my eyes. What's stinking?! ”
Yang Liu stretched out his hand and dragged him, and Li Cong took advantage of the situation to sit down. He also apologized to He's in his mouth.
"Mother, don't be angry. The fifth child is also unhappy for Xiuxiu. Xiao He gently patted He on the back and smoothed out.
"Good horses don't eat back grass, Xiuxiu, we can't have this kind of person." Yu said. Obviously, she also agrees with Li Cong's opinion.
She heard what the man said with her own ears, and she was not poor, so if she didn't do it with a good wife, how could she be willing to degenerate and want to be a concubine? It's clear that he looks down on people, and he wants them to be grateful for his arrival, which is really not ashamed.
Wen lowered his head, fiddled with his fingers, and hung high on his own business. There are so many people who are worried about Xiuxiu, what is her head.
"How could he have repented?" Li Qiang was more rational and asked to the point, "What did the eldest aunt say?" ”
"It was said that Zhang Xiucai went back to reflect on it, and felt that his behavior was too Meng Lang, which annoyed us, and he wanted to apologize in person, and the two families sat down to get to know each other well. And his mother is sorry too. He added, "If the parents of both sides have seen the juniors of each family and feel that they are in harmony, they will prepare for marriage after Xiuxiu and Xu." ”
"Lying, definitely lying." Yu Shizheng stretched out his hand to read a crisp fruit, and immediately shook his head when he heard the words.
He slapped it on the table, "Do you want to delay Xiuxiu's good marriage." What kind of lie and don't lie, isn't your sister-in-law worthy of that poor and sour talent? ”
You dislike people for being poor, why is it still a good marriage? When I heard that Xiuxiu might marry a Xiucai, who was so happy that I couldn't keep my mouth shut? Yu Shi understood in his heart, but he couldn't break with He's family, his mouth moved, but he didn't make a sound, tilted his head, and threw the crisp fruit into his mouth.
Even if he had already noticed Yu's small movements, He just tilted his head and ignored it. She was afraid that she would continue to talk nonsense with the Yu family, and another half a day had passed. Although He was afraid that the last incident would hurt Xiuxiu, he really felt that this family business was good, but he was afraid that Xiuxiu would refuse to agree to think about it again and again, and finally left Xiuxiu behind. It's about Xiuxiu, how could He not be cautious? She is such a girl in her life, and she expects all the good things in the world to go to Xiuxiu. And if he didn't love Xiuxiu, how could He agree to let Xiuxiu secretly go to see that Zhang family kid?
"Mother, what do you think?" Li Qiang said uncomfortably. Listening to He's words just now, Li Qiang also heard that He still valued this family business, and since they had made up their minds in their hearts, they wanted them to sit here and take some ideas. Just a nod or shake your head, isn't it? Are you afraid that Xiuxiu will not agree, and you want them to persuade Xiuxiu to nod?
He didn't answer, and his eyes fell on Xiuxiu.
Xiuxiu lowered her head, avoiding He's gaze, anyway, if any of them said it in a daze, she just wouldn't nod. Some things are missed, she doesn't care if the other party is Xiucai or not, besides, doesn't Xiucai eat? If He is strong, she will close her eyes, and it will be okay to marry in the past, but only later
"Mother, we don't know what the situation of the Zhang family is, is Zhang Chengzu an only son?" Yang Liu was the first to break the silence and asked.
He Shi glanced at her before replying: "It's an only son, I used to have a brother who died when he was about three years old." The family is not complicated, a family of three lives together, and there is an aunt and aunt above, both of whom are married far away. My father and mother are all kind people, and they have a good reputation in that area. ”
Probably when He said this, he also thought of Zhang Xiucai's mother, and no matter how you look at it, it can't be related to harmony. As for why she still said so, it is estimated that she is still more optimistic about such a family affair, you know, the other party is a showman.
Yang Liu only nodded, indicating that he knew, but did not express any thoughts on this. You must know that the fields under Xiucai's name can be exempted from taxes and favored by others, who will say that the other party is not good? And Xiucai is a person who can almost be an official in the eyes of the common people, with culture and status, who will offend others if his head is dizzy, and it is too late to stammer.
"Is that Xiucai Niang strict with Zhang Chengzu?" Yang Liu said: "I think he listens to his mother very much." ”
The son is filial piety when he listens to his mother's words, and if he blindly obeys, he becomes foolish, if this is the case, Xiuxiu will definitely be miserable by the mother and son when he marries. In addition, Xiucai Niang lost another son, so she naturally poured all her expectations into Zhang Chengzu, and especially after Zhang Chengzu was admitted to Xiucai, the idea of wanting him to go further would be even worse. Moreover, the title of Xiucai is not small - some people have been children all their lives, but they are not big - at least it will not pave the way for him to collect enough money to pave the way for future social entertainment. Judging from Zhang Chengzu's dress, his family is not wealthy, and the only way to change this dilemma is to marry, and the best party is still a soft and easy to handle girl.
According to modern sayings, the woman has to see how the man's mother is doing while going on a blind date, and the problem of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has existed since ancient times, and if it is easy to solve, it will not exist for thousands of years. Marriage is not a matter of two people, but a combination of two families and two concepts. If you want to press each other all day long, then you don't have to spend this day.
"A loving mother is a loser, listen to your tone, is it wrong for a son to listen to his mother's words?"
Li Cong's brain reacted extremely quickly, "He listens to his mother for everything, that Xiuxiu has been wronged, who is he on?" ”
That's a real problem. He Shi choked, she knew Xiuxiu's character, and she would never take the initiative to provoke right and wrong, how could she see what kind of person the other party was? By the way, you can't tell whether people are good or bad. This bastard boy was almost stunned by him.
"Let's not talk about this yet." Yang Liu shook his head, "Since we are married, we will marry a girl in the near future, so can Zhang Chengzu have a business now?" ”
"He wants to concentrate on preparing for the imperial examination in the future, how can he be distracted to find something to do?" He felt that Yang Liu was asking this question very idioticly.
"I don't have the ability, do I still have to rely on Xiuxiu to make money to support my family?" Li Cong immediately retorted.
Ho's heart pounded.
Yang Liu said again: "It seems that this year is impossible, then the next imperial examination will have to wait until at least three years later, Zhang Chengzu has no livelihood, is Xiuxiu married specifically to endure hardship?" Also, does my mother think that Xiuxiu can overpower Zhang Chengzu's mother? ”
Ho's face turned pale. (To be continued......)
