Chapter 672: The Parents' Order
Although Chu Li's expression was kind, his eyes were very firm, and he nodded slightly, Master Li hesitated for a moment, and finally said to Su Niang: "Su Niang, your father has passed away, and now only Gao Tang is here, and today the old man will deal with today's family matter as an uncle." ”
Su Niangwu was puzzled, glanced at Chu Huan, and saw that Chu Huan's expression was also very serious, so she said to Master Li: "As an elder, it is naturally reasonable for uncle to deal with family affairs. ”
"Good!" Li Fuzi bowed slightly, and said to Mr. Dou and Wei Tianqing: "The two of you are here today, so I will bother the two of you to be a witness." ”
Wei Tianqing saw that they had to deal with family affairs, and was about to say goodbye and leave, although he had a great relationship with Chu Huan, but this was a private family matter after all, and he was an outsider, so it was not easy to interfere.
Li Fuzi bluntly asked him to stay, and he didn't know what was going on, but seeing Li Fuzi's solemn expression, he arched his hand at the moment and didn't speak.
Rulian was very well-behaved, and had already moved two chairs and invited Mr. Dou and Wei Tianqing to sit down.
Li Fuzi, Chu Li and Chu Huan all knew it, but the others were a little dazed.
"Su Niang, it has been more than three years since you entered the Chu family, and in the past few years, you have been married and worked hard, hard-working, virtuous and virtuous, even if your uncle doesn't say it, others have eyes." Li Fuzi said slowly: "You are a good daughter-in-law who got married, and you can welcome you into the door when you get married, that is the accumulation of virtue on the ancestors of marriage!" ”
Su Niang was stunned, but Li Fuzi praised her so much in front of so many people, but she was a little shy, lowered her head, and said softly: "Uncle, this is ...... These are all things that a vegetarian should do. ”
Li Fuzi bowed slightly, and continued: "Today's family matter, your mother also talked to the old man for a long time, the old man was a stubborn person, and he was against it at first, but now he has figured it out, speaking of which, this is not a bad thing, but a good thing." He looked at the book of resignation in his hand again, and said solemnly: "Today, there is Ye Suniang, a woman of the Chu family, who has been in the field for three years, hard work, clean and self-conscious, and the Chu family has this good woman, and I am grateful for the virtue of my ancestors." However, three years of filial piety, the filial piety period has passed, the main mother Chu Li, thinking of Ye Suniang's youth, is willing to relieve his body, from today on, Ye Suniang out of the Chu family, not for the Chu family! ”
Su Niang didn't understand Master Li's crepe words, but Mr. Dou and Wei Tianqing naturally understood instantly, and they were both taken aback and glanced at each other.
Although Su Niang didn't understand for a while, the sentence "Out of the Chu family, not for the Chu family", still made Su Niang vaguely understand something, raised her head, looked at Master Li with big eyes, and asked nervously: "Uncle, is this...... What does it all mean? ”
Master Li glanced at the Chu Li family, saw that the Chu Li family looked firm, sighed, and said: "Child, from today on, you are no longer the daughter-in-law of the Chu family, you no longer have to be chaste for the eldest man, you can marry on your own in the future, you can marry whoever you want, you can marry whoever you want, and the Chu family is no longer your bondage." ”
Su Niang's brain was stunned for a while, and she couldn't understand it, so she asked blankly, "Isn't it the daughter-in-law of the Chu family?" ”
Rulian also heard it clearly, her delicate face was full of consternation, she opened her red lips, and she was speechless for a while.
Chu Li finally spoke: "Su Niang, in the past few years, if you hadn't taken care of me, my old woman would have been buried in the loess. Today, please ask my uncle to be the master, Mr. Dou and Master Wei to testify, and my mother will give you a free body. ”
Although Su Niang is simple, she is not a stupid person, and at this time she finally understood, her face instantly turned pale, and she lost her voice: "Mother, you ...... Are you trying to kick me out? ”
Li Fuzi hurriedly said: "Child, don't get me wrong, your mother doesn't mean ...... meant!" ”
Su Niang's eyes were already red, tears rolled down, and she said in a trembling voice: "Mother, uncle, is Su Niang ...... Is there something wrong? If Su Niang is at fault, you can beat me and scold me, but ...... But don't drive me away. At this time, she was already distraught, and all her thoughts were discouraged, and she never imagined that today's family affairs would be such a thing.
Although she has only been in the Chu family for a few years, she has relied on the Chu Li family before, sharing weal and woe, and is called mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, which is actually deeper than the relationship between her biological mother and daughter.
In her heart, she naturally wants to serve her mother-in-law well, she is a very simple-minded woman, and she has never thought of leaving the Chu family when she entered the Chu family.
In her opinion, as a daughter-in-law, being kicked out of the house is definitely a big mistake, and only bad women are kicked out of the house by their in-laws.
At this time, listening to Master Li read out the letter of resignation, Chu Li even made it clear that she was no longer the daughter-in-law of the Chu family, how could Su Niang accept it? She only felt that her mind was in chaos, her body trembled, and she was completely overwhelmed.
Seeing that Su Niang was heartbroken, tears were like rain, Chu Li hurriedly stretched out his hand and said, "Su Niang, you come!" ”
Su Niang knelt on the ground and moved over, and said sadly: "Mother, what did Su Niang do wrong?" You tell Su Niang, why did you drive Su Niang out of the house? ”
Wei Tianqing and Mr. Dou are also quite familiar with the Chu family for a while, Su Niang is virtuous, they also see it, and know that Su Niang is a simple and kind woman, but at this time, they can't figure out why the Chu Li family made such a ruthless decision.
They also know that the daughter-in-law who was divorced from her mother-in-law's house has actually damaged her reputation, and although it is not impossible to find a good family again, there are very few of them.
At this time, Chu Li was already holding Su Niang, and said softly: "Su Niang, don't cry, how can my mother be willing to drive you out of the house?" My mother knows that I won't be able to do it, and Erniang is not worried about Erlang, but my mother is worried about you. If you can't settle you down before closing your eyes, your mother won't be blind. ”
Su Niang sobbed: "Kick me out of the house, is it settled?" I don't want you to settle me, if my mother really goes, I'll keep your tablet all the time. ”
"Silly boy." Chu Li's tears also fell, turned his head to look at Master Li, and said, "Brother, you ......!" ”
Master Li understood what Chu Li meant, nodded, coughed twice, and then said, "Su Niang, don't worry, my uncle's words haven't been finished yet." ”
Su Niang bit her red lip, feeling sad, but she didn't speak.
"Everyone, I have already read the book of resignation, you are all witnesses, from now on, Ye Suniang has nothing to do with the Chu family, she is neither the daughter-in-law of the Chu family, nor the sister-in-law of Erlang, you are all witnesses." Li Fuzi looked at Mr. Dou and Wei Tianqing.
Mr. Dou and Wei Tianqing glanced at each other, both bowed slightly, Mr. Dou didn't dare to ask more, but Wei Tianqing was a heroic character, seeing Chu Huan kneeling there and not speaking, his heart was a little annoyed, and he felt that Chu Huan should come out to speak for Su Niang at this time, Chu Huan didn't speak, but he felt that he still had to say a few words, stood up, and arched his hand: "Auntie, Master Li, Wei is an outsider, there are some things that shouldn't be said, but ...... With all due respect, it seems that Su Niang will be divorced from the house, and it seems that he is ...... It seems that something is inappropriate. He looked at Chu Huan and said, "Brother Chu, what do you say?" ”
He had the intention of letting Chu Huan stand up and speak, but Chu Huan just glanced at him and didn't say much.
Wei Tianqing was even more annoyed, thinking that Brother Chu is also a person who values love and righteousness, how can he seem to be a different person today, if it weren't for this occasion, according to his temper, he would have scolded Chu Huan at this time.
Li Fuzi had already said: "Master Wei is not in a hurry, let's come to things one by one." Master Wei, Su Niang is no longer the daughter-in-law of the Chu family at this time, and she has nothing to do with the Chu family, can you testify? ”
Wei Tianqing's heart was on fire, but it was not easy to say anything at this time, he just said "um", and he didn't say much, sat down, looked out, but his heart was thinking that he had to find Chu Huan to theorize when he turned around.
Su Niang was heartbroken at this time, Rulian had also come over, hugging Su Niang, she wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say, she was only worried that on this occasion, if she said the wrong thing, things would be even worse.
"Since Mr. Dou and Master Wei have already testified, this letter of resignation is valid." Li Fuzi handed the letter of resignation to Su Niang: "Child, do you want to take a look at this letter of resignation?" ”
Su Niang closed her eyes, her red lips were closed, and she didn't say a word.
"Good!" Li Fuzi saw that Su Niang didn't read it, but put the letter of resignation on the flame of the red candle, and the book of resignation burned instantly, and Li Fuzi threw it on the ground, and the book of resignation burned to ashes in a moment.
"A daughter-in-law of the Chu family has left." Li Fuzi said with a straight face: "Mr. Dou, Master Wei, the old man has to ask the two of you to do a big favor today!" ”
Mr. Dou immediately said: "Master Li has a useful place, although he said bluntly, if I can do it, I should do my best." ”
Wei Tianqing was noncommittal and did not speak.
Seeing Wei Tianqing's demeanor and knowing Wei Tianqing's thoughts, Li Fuzi smiled slightly and said, "Master Wei, Xiao Lao'er wants to ask you and Mr. Dou to be a matchmaker today, I wonder if the Chu family has this blessing?" ”
"Matchmaker?" Wei Tianqing was stunned and frowned: "What matchmaker?" ”
Li Fuzi stroked his beard and smiled: "Xiao Lao'er knows that Lord Wei has always taken good care of Erlang, and he is like a brother, if it weren't for Lord Wei, Erlang would not be where he is today." Xiao Lao'er feels that today's big matchmaker has to be done by you, and no one is suitable except you. ”
Wei Tianqing was a little confused by Master Li, and frowned: "Old Master, Wei really doesn't understand this?" You let Wei be the matchmaker, who do you do it for? Glancing at Chu Huan, he said strangely: "It's not because you want to be a matchmaker for Brother Chu, right?" ”
"Exactly!" Li Fuzi said with a smile: "Erlang's matchmaker is none other than Lord Wei!" ”
Wei Tianqing thought to himself: "Could it be that because the aunt's deadline is approaching, the Chu family wants to handle the marriage between Brother Chu and Su Dadong's family as soon as possible?" The heart only thinks that it is very possible, thinking that this is also a beautiful thing, he hesitated slightly, bowed his head slightly, but his heart thought that Su Niang had been taken out of the house recently, and this matter could not be forgotten, and when he returned to scold Chu Huan, he asked Chu Huan to make a proper placement for Su Niang.
Seeing Wei Tianqing nodded, Li Fuzi looked at Mr. Dou and said with a smile: "Mr. Dou, I also ask you to be a matchmaker, this man's matchmaker will be handed over to Lord Wei, and the woman's matchmaker will bother Mr. Dou." ”
Mr. Dou smiled: "This is a good thing, how dare you say that it is tiring?" He asked, "Master, but I don't know which girl the woman is?" ”
