Chapter 0104: The Lively Wang Family
When a group of young people returned from the temple fair, Wang Chunfang suddenly proposed to Shen Kan that there was a rare opportunity to go to a relative's house in Xiaoxi Village.
Shen Kan disagreed, but he couldn't stand the eldest sister's help and persuasion, and Young Master Yao actually came out to instigate it.
Obviously, visiting relatives was just an excuse, they wanted to stay outside for a while, and the compromised Shen Kan decided to accompany them in person.
Asked a few older students to be in charge of the order of the school, and asked Shen Xiangdao and Wang Pu to send Yuqin home.
In Xiaoxi Village, suddenly the entire Wang family's old house became lively, and it was even more nervous than usual during the New Year.
In the early years, the deceased Wang Ge Lao was very nostalgic when he was alive, not only his relatives, but even the villagers in the village also gave a lot of money, and often came back to visit.
With the departure of the old immortal of Wang Ge, the Wang family has gradually lost contact with this side, especially in recent years, so although Mr. Qianzhai's family lives a relatively frugal life, in the imagination of relatives in his hometown, they still think that Wang Chunfang is a young lady, and she can drop gold by sewing her hands, and everyone hopes to get benefits from her.
The women of the Wang family used to go into the city during the festival, and they saw the wives of the Wang family take off their ordinary clothes, put on silk and satin, and wear pearls and emeralds, so they left a deep impression on them.
Even the neighbors who had never seen Wang Chunfang felt that they were about to come to the nobles, and they also had infinite brilliance in themselves, hoping to be able to get married to this official lady and get a little more generous.
So, after learning the news announced by Wang Si in public, almost half of the people in the village mobilized.
There are four brothers, Wang Si is a famous talent, Wang Dawang is a farmer all his life, and Wang San has been dead for many years.
Wang Da's wife forced Wang Da to go to the pawnshop to redeem the Gesi leather jacket, but Wang Da now has no money in hand, and because it is not suitable to wear a robe at this time, he only promised to redeem the jacket for her.
Wang's wife quarreled with her husband because the jacket was oblique, and the color was not bright or bright, so she was afraid of being looked down upon by the ladies.
As a result, Wang Da, who was in his forties, carried two quilts and rushed to the nearest pawnshop.
The second wife of Wang next door lost two firewoods last month, and the eldest wife of Wang broke the bloodstream, in fact, the reason is that Wang Er has always felt that the sister-in-law is coquettish, and the two have some little secrets behind their backs, so the two have always been enemies, and they have not spoken to this day.
But today, because I wanted to borrow two silk flowers to wear, so that I could look beautiful in front of the young ladies, I humbly went to tell my sister-in-law something nice.
Unexpectedly, Wang Da's wife was small-minded, remembered the previous feud, and didn't give her a good face on the spot, so angry that Wang's second wife went back and scolded her husband, forcing him to go out immediately, and within the time limit of one stick of incense, he had to buy back two good-looking silk flowers and a necklace.
And Wang San's wife, Widow Yang, was alone in the house in front of the mirror, twisting the face of a with a thread to make it shiny, but she accidentally used a little harder and twisted her face into a piece of oil.
In a short period of time, Widow Yang combed her hair tightly and tightened, ironed the wedding dress ten years ago, wore it on her body and looked left and right in the mirror, any little dust on her body had to be bounced off, and a shallow fold had to be smoothed, and she was worried that the cheap powder would fall, so she wiped it again every once in a while, and in less than half an hour, the powder on her face had been half an inch.
But as soon as she frowned and opened her mouth, the powder fell off in pieces, and Widow Yang had to apply it again, and even mixed some lard, until there was no omission and could enter the eyes of the young ladies.
I didn't know that I unintentionally bowed my head, and it was broken! Seeing a pair of worn-out blue satin embroidered shoes on her feet covered with mud, she forgot to brush her shoes, which made her so upset, and hated Wang Da for no reason, so she had already asked him to buy shoes, and he had not bought them back until today.
How good is that? Widow Yang thought about it for a long time and came up with an idea. She took a bowl and prepared to go to Wang Si's house to ask for some soju, wanting to use the wine to wipe the upper of her shoes with a new look.
staggered out and walked through the courtyard where Wang Si's family had been tossing for a long time, only to find that although a few garbage heaps had not yet had time to be pulled out, they had also picked up their appearance.
No, it seems that the garbage heap was deliberately made, because I don't know where to find crab shells, orange peels, banana peels and other valuable things that rich people often eat, as if they were ready for noble people to see. In addition, even the firewood was bundled into bundles, and they were all arranged in a neat manner, as if they were respectful.
Widow Yang's mind was all on the shoes, and she didn't care to look at them carefully, until she walked to the main house of Wang Si's house, and shouted, "Brother and sister, are you at home?"
"Who?"
"It's me." Widow Yang lifted the curtain and walked in.
In the room, I saw Wang Si's two little girls about ten years old, standing on the ground, grease and powder on a three-inch diameter mercury mirror on the table.
The mirror is too small, and the two of you are fighting for me and pushing each other, this one shouted: "Ah! The rouge is all on my neck, and you still squeeze me?"
The one also shouted: "Mother! She's used up all the powder, and I can't wipe my face white!"
Wang Si's wife seemed to be deaf to the quarrel between the two children, she was already dressed, wearing a long Han-style red dress with Hangzhou Yunjinxia satin, the sleeves were fat and short, and the narrow green sleeves of the round-necked shirt were exposed on her forearms.
At this time, it seemed that she was wearing a thick long skirt a few months earlier, but Widow Yang knew that she now had this good dress at the bottom of the box, and she would rather be dizzy with heat today than be in the limelight.
For the fourth daughter-in-law's good clothes, although Widow Yang is very envious, she has never been extravagant, after all, her identity is not a good match. It's the bright green crewneck shirt, but I've coveted it for a whole year.
For this dress, she and her sister-in-law fought openly and secretly for more than a month, but the result was not obtained.
At this moment, seeing that she was put on by the fourth daughter-in-law, Widow Yang couldn't help but scold in her heart: "The fourth bastard with no conscience, next time you come, don't buy me such a dress, it's strange to see if I call him a bed!"
Holding back her anger, she stepped forward and called out affectionately: "Brother and sister."
Wang Si's wife knew that she was the third sister-in-law, but she didn't raise her head, but still bowed her head and did her own thing. Widow Yang sat on the low stool opposite her while talking, and suddenly saw a yellow and clear thing on her younger sibling's wrist, and was surprised, and said how did the fourth child make a fortune? He put on a gold bracelet.
"How is that possible?"
Widow Yang became suspicious, so she took a closer look, and found that the big yellow bracelet on her left wrist was indeed burning and shining, but one of her right wrist was held in her hand, only half of the circle was yellow, and the other half circle was still showing the original silver.
The horse widow smiled and looked at it, and Wang Si's wife naturally didn't want to be seen through the secret, but she couldn't hide it.
So she pretended to be careless and said, "You have cleaned up, you are so handsome!" In this way, your brother will not be able to leave you. ”
Widow Yang saw that she came to expose her roots again, although she was displeased, but firstly, she couldn't tell her husband clearly, and secondly, now she had a request for her, so she could only accompany her with a smile and said: "You have also cleaned up your money, what are you doing here?"
Wang Si's wife rolled her eyes at her knowingly asked, and said, "The eldest lady over there will come in a while!" I've watched her grow up since I was a child, and it's rare for her to come once, so she has to say something considerate to me, right? I just remembered that the pair of silver bracelets in my hand was strange, and I was going to call it Yinlou gold plating, but it was too late. It just so happened that the eldest daughter had seen the dowry at the temple fair, and bought a few pieces of gold leaf back, and first dealt with it. ”
"Not really." Widow Yang echoed with a smile, and took the opportunity to say: "I'm also anxious about this, you see that my shoes are old, and I don't have time to buy new ......"
Wang Si's wife rushed to the interface: "Why is it too late, isn't there a ready-to-wear shop in the west of the village?"
"I, I don't want to buy it yet." Widow Yang whispered.
Wang Si's wife heard this, for fear that she would borrow shoes from herself in the next sentence, so she hurriedly said: "I only have this pair on my feet, and I am not rich."
Seeing that she had misunderstood her intentions, Widow Yang raised one foot, "I only have this pair on my feet, but it's just too dirty." You have old soju in your house, give me some wipe. ”
"Oh." Wang Si's wife's tense face stretched a little, but she shook her head, "I don't drink alcohol, where did I get the old burn?" You can spend two Tongbao to go to the small shop to do some work. ”
Widow Yang is not short of a few copper coins, but she is reluctant to use them for a while, and since she has already given up her face to her younger siblings, if she wants to break the bill herself, it will be heartwarming.
Anyway, everyone is here, and they have to achieve their goal no matter what, so she smiled and said, "Didn't the fourth master buy a pot back yesterday." When have you ever been short of something in this house? Good sister, you can give some, I don't use much. ”
At this time, Wang Si's wife had already pasted the bracelet, carefully strung it on her wrist, looked up at her, and saw that her eyes were staring at the wine jug on the table, and it was not good to say no, and her secret was discovered by her, and she offended her.
Then give her a little, Wang Si's wife said in her heart, but when she thought that the soju was also bought with money, it was really distressing to give her so much in vain.
frowned, and Wang Si's wife was concerned......
