Chapter 13: Quarrels
As soon as the third aunt left, the mother glared at the father, her eyes as cold as a blade, and the father glared back without showing weakness, like a trapped beast.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense.
Dou Zhao's small figure shrank in the curtain, listening to his parents' mutual accusations.
"Zhao Guqiu, what are you going to do? Don't you think I'm shameful enough? ”
"What am I going to do? I also want to ask you, what are you going to do? Take the daughter of a sinner as a concubine, where have you read the books of your sages? Do you want the Dou family's century-old reputation and the accumulation of several generations to be ruined in your hands? You're not ashamed, I still have face! ”
The father was so angry that his face was red: "We grew up together, who am I, don't you know?" At this time, in Chapter 13, you didn't help me in the quarrel, but you were still pulling my hind legs, and invited the second aunt to come to see my jokes, how did you become a wife? When my reputation is over, how much better will you be? Don't forget, husband and wife are one! You're still a good wife! Fortunately, my mother-in-law went early, if I saw you like this today, I don't know how sad and sad? ”
"Dou Shiying, if you say I'll talk about me, what do you want my mother to do?" The mother cried angrily, "You remember that we grew up together, so do you remember how my mother treated you?" Do you remember what you told me before you got married? You shameless! You want me to cover it up for you, but there is no door! ”
The father suddenly wilted like an eggplant beaten by frost, and a trace of unease flashed between his expressions: "I, I didn't mean to mention my mother-in-law, do you need to be so unforgiving?" I'm not forced by you. He said, remembering the old things, and became angry again, "Baoshan just dragged me to drink a meal of flower wine, and you blew your beard and glared at others, and when people came to our house, they didn't even give people a cup of good tea, which made me suffer the ridicule of my classmates......" The more he spoke, the more annoyed he became, "You only know how to blame me, why don't you want to think about yourself!" If you have a better temper, will I discuss the quarrel in Chapter 13 with the third brother? ”
The mother was trembling with anger and wiped the tears on her face indiscriminately: "You did something wrong, and you are embarrassed to say anything about me!" So what kind of good thing is Feng Baoshan? In addition to eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, what else will he do? At the end of the year, if it weren't for the uncle's sake, he would have been dismissed a long time ago, only you, you are mixed with him every day, you are not a good thing! ”
The father was so choked that he couldn't speak, and only after a while did he mutter, "Then, then you can't do this!" ”
"What do you want me to do?" The mother asked sharply, "Open the door and welcome Wang Yingxue in?" I have that Yaliang, does she Wang Yingxue have this blessing? The mother sneered, "Dou Shiying, I said it here, the women in the world can accept whoever you want, Wang Yingxue wants to enter the door, unless I die!" ”
"You...... I ......" the father pointed to the mother, his arm trembled, and he didn't say a complete sentence for a long time.
The mother smiled disdainfully, and her waist straightened up.
It turns out that husbands and wives can still quarrel like this!
This is her father, who always puts on a sanctimonious appearance?
How to act like a child!
Dou Zhao was dumbfounded.
She had never quarreled with Wei Tingyu.
At first I didn't dare, then I was disdainful.
The father lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Gu Qiu, let's not quarrel, okay?" His tone was sad, "This matter is all my fault, and Yingxue is also dragged down by me." Otherwise, she is a good daughter of a white family, why should she suffer such humiliation? Besides, Yingxue and I have also agreed that she will live in the Grange in the future," he said, raising his head with a bit of hope in his eyes, "We are still the same as before, okay?" I'll listen to you for everything in the future, and I'll never go out with Baoshan again......"
Good!
Dou Zhao almost couldn't bear to jump out of the curtain to answer on behalf of his mother.
When a husband and wife quarrel, what better way to explain the status of the wife in the husband's mind than the husband taking the initiative to bow his head.
Now that Wang Yingxue is pregnant, with her father's personality, she must be determined to accept Wang Yingxue into the door, so it is better to take the opportunity to give her father a step down, not only to show her generosity and virtue in front of the elders of the Dou family, but also to envelop her father's heart, and even to take this matter to her father when there are any differences between husband and wife in the future.
That's killing three birds with one stone!
And the broken mirror is reunited, whether there are cracks or not, in the eyes of others, it is still a mirror.
That Wang Yingxue is afraid that when she looks at it, her heart will be like a knife.
Then let Wang Yingxue write the deed of sale and throw her to the grange.
Regardless of whether what my father is telling at the moment is true or false, what he promised himself can't be reversed, right?
As long as her father doesn't change her mind for a day, Wang Yingxue will have to stay up in the grange. Just let everyone see what Wang Yingxue is in the Dou family!
Even if my father wants to regret it, he is not afraid.
When the time comes, take Wang Yingxue to visit every household.
Aren't you Wang Yingxue the queen of celebrities? Willing to fall into a concubine with others, look at what your Wang family will look like when the time comes!
What could be more relieving than that?
Even if Wang Yingxue can move her father one day, but her mother has her deed of sale in hand, where is the status of wife and concubine, and with the help of this elder of the Dou family, can she still turn the sky upside down?
Dou Zhao almost burst out laughing.
But the mother's scream sounded in his ears: "Yingxue, Yingxue, it's really affectionate!" Since you've discussed everything behind my back, what are you looking for me for? 'Good daughter of a white family', Dou Shiying, you can say this! Will the daughter of a pure white family find herself to be a concubine? Will the daughter of a pure white family shamelessly seduce someone else's father-in-law? If she is the daughter of a pure white family, I am afraid that there is no innocent and unclean person in this world! She felt humiliated, so she should find a place not to humiliate her......"
Dou Zhao was so anxious that he wished that he had three heads and six arms to block his mother's mouth!
Arguing is the same as talking, be focused!
What's the use of dwelling on these over and over again?
Hurry up and make your father's promise.
But before she could do anything, her father was furious and shouted, "What else do you want from me? It doesn't work, it doesn't work either! Don't you just rely on your elders to support you? Don't you think I dare to do anything to you? I'm thinking of the love we grew up with as children......"
"If you still remember the love we grew up with, you wouldn't have done such a dirty thing!" The mother did not show weakness, with a disdainful expression, "I just rely on the elders in the family to support me, what can you do to me?" If you have the ability, you bypass me to marry Wang Yingxue into the door! ”
"You, you......" the father was annoyed, "I, I...... I'm going to divorce you! ”
The mother was stunned.
"What did you say?" Her face turned pale, "You're going to divorce me!" The mother looked at her father in disbelief, "You want to divorce me for Wang Yingxue......"
As soon as the words came out, his father was also stunned, he didn't dare to look at his mother as if he turned his face away, and whispered: "I'll tell you well, you must not be accommodating......"
"Dou Shiying!" Her mother's eyes were red with anger, and she shouted her father's name, "Get out of here!" Give me as far as I can roll out! I'm waiting for your letter of resignation! I want to see how you welcome Wang Yingxue's little slut into the door! ”
The father was very wolfish and argued strongly: "Gu Qiu, I didn't mean that!" Listen to me......"
"Get out of here! Get lost! Get lost! Mother pushed her father out the door, "I'm waiting for your letter of resignation, I'm waiting for your letter ......of resignation," she murmured, and slammed the door shut.
"Gu Qiu, Gu Qiu!" Outside the father, he banged on the door, "I didn't mean that, I just said it casually!" I'm an unintentional ......"
The mother leaned against the door, tears raining down, and her voice was like a gnat: "Unintentionally, sometimes unintentionally speaking the truth......"
Dou Zhao had a splitting headache, slipped off the kang and pulled the corner of his mother's clothes: "Mother! Mother! ”
The mother squatted down, grabbed her daughter's arms, sobbed and asked her, "Didn't you say you were going to your uncle's house to play?" I'll go to my uncle's house with you, okay? ”
"Not good!" Dou Zhao shook his head, his big eyes were as bright as the morning star, "This is my home, I want to stay at home." During the Chinese New Year, go to my uncle's house! ”
The mother was stunned, but the tears fell even more urgently.

In the evening, Mama Yu advised her mother: "...... If you are angry with the Seventh Master at this time, wouldn't it make your relatives hurt your enemies quickly! ”
The mother sat in front of the mirror, stared blankly at the woman in the mirror who looked like still water and flowers, and replied unexpectedly: "...... When I was a child, every time I came to the Dou family, my mother told me not to be naughty and not to upset the aunts and sisters of the Dou family...... Once, Pei Tzu took me to pick magnolia flowers, and I was so scared that I didn't dare to climb the tree, but I still trembled when I thought of my mother's words...... Pezy jumped off the tree, but I crouched on the tree and didn't dare to come down...... Seeing that it was almost time to eat at noon, Pei Ci got up in a hurry and ran to the outer courtyard to find the little maid for help...... I was squatting alone on a tree, with fluffy leaves and fleshy bugs crawling around on it...... I wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry, for fear of attracting others and causing Peici to be beaten...... Thinking that it would be better to jump like this, I would rather die and be crippled than be crawled by bugs...... I closed my eyes, and someone below said 'feed' and said, 'Why are you crouching in a tree?' The voice was like the water in a brook, clear and pleasant. I opened my eyes and saw a young man standing under a tree, looking up at me. His hair was as black as fine satin, his face was as smooth as jade, and his eyes were gentle and bright...... I watched in a daze. But he laughed, and it was more beautiful than the flowers in the garden...... I told him that I was hanging from a tree and couldn't get down. He told me to wait, turned around and found a ladder to carefully free me from the tree...... Later, every time I came to Doufu, he would wait for me under the magnolia tree...... Give me sweet pea yellow to eat, and sour plums, black olives...... Once, it was a pearl made of pearls...... I put it in my close-fitting purse and didn't leave it for a moment......" She turned her head and looked at Mama Yu with her eyes that were red and swollen from crying, "Mama, you say, where is the person who was waiting for me under the magnolia tree?" How come I can't find him? ”
"Miss!" Mama Yu covered her mouth and cried.
Dou Zhao's eyes were blurry, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

After reading the comments of the book review, I felt that there was something that I had to explain to everyone.
o(∩_∩)o~
With the Dou family's family, it is impossible to sell his wife for glory, Dou Zhao's mother committed suicide and not murder, so everyone doesn't have to make up for it!
As for why Dou Zhao was sent to the grange to be raised by the peasant woman's grandmother, and why Dou Zhao's uncle broke off contact with Dou Zhao, this is within the scope of spoilers, and everyone can only read the text patiently and find an agreement from it.
PS: Thank you again, today's PK list "Nine Purples" continues to be in the fifth position, it's not easy!
