Chapter 96: Unwillingness
Old Madam You noticed that You Shi's expression was wrong and asked, "What's wrong?" β
You Shi pressed the sinking heart and smiled reluctantly: "It's just that I suddenly heard you mention Orange's family affairs, and I was a little surprised." β
Old Madam You sighed: "I know that you are worried about the Xue family's resignation. However, the world is like this, and it is inevitable that people will talk about it for a while, but fortunately, we all know that oranges are good. β
You pursed his lips and said nothing.
Old Madam You couldn't figure out You Shi's thoughts for a while, and said with a smile: "Orange grew up with us, needless to say, the whole family loves her." She and Hanzhang are now at the age of a man and a woman, and I think it would be great if I could kiss and kiss. β
You Shi lowered his eyes, but remained silent.
"Yuan Niang, what do you think, can't you talk to your mother yet?" Old Madam You was a little irritable.
My daughter is good at everything, but her temperament is not good enough.
After a moment of silence, You Shi finally spoke: "I don't know if I want to kiss and kiss, I don't know what my mother means, or what my younger brother and sister mean?" β
"Of course I'm looking forward to Cheng'er marrying in, and as for your brother, I can't ask for it."
"So, it's my brother and sister who have taken a fancy to Orange?"
Although Old Madam You felt that You Shi's tone was a little weird, she didn't think much about it, and said with a smile: "She, she looks at Orange with full eyes and eyes." β
You Shi's heart completely fell to the bottom.
The daughter had a disagreement with her nephew, and she was worried that her daughter would be estranged from her mother.
Thinking about what Orange Er said at the time, and listening to what her mother is saying now, it was like a slap in the face, making her hot and painful.
"What, do you think the You family's threshold is low?" Looking at You Shi's face, Old Madam You frowned.
Although she was prepared to be unwilling to do so, she was really rejected by her daughter, and Old Mrs. You was still inevitably annoyed in her heart.
In the old lady's opinion, there is a gap between the two families, but the granddaughter has withdrawn from the family, the grandson is a good child who studies hard, and she doesn't have to worry about being tormented by her in-laws, and the daughter is unwilling to even think about it?
Of course, You Shi was unwilling, not only did he not want to, but he was also a little dissatisfied with his mother because of Feng Cheng's words.
But the words of direct refusal cannot be spoken.
Fortunately, there are also advantages to being weak in temperament, You Shi hesitated slightly: "Don't hide it from your mother, my mother-in-law said that she will be in charge of Orange's family affairs in the future, and my daughter doesn't have to worry about it." β
The words were taken for granted, which made Old Madam You feel heartbroken.
"Marriage matters pay attention to the orders of parents, you are Orange's mother-in-law, is it all up to her grandmother?"
You Shi smiled: "Mother-in-law is a second-class fate, and she is a noble lady who comes and goes, and it is much better than me to be a widow for Orange." β
Mrs. You hates iron and steel, but she is helpless to look at her dough-like daughter.
If the mother is better, the daughter will go back first. Since the concubine was recuperating, her mother-in-law handed over some household affairs to her daughter, but she was not as idle as before. β
"Let's go back." Old Madam You didn't bother to look at You Shi again.
On the carriage back, You Shi's face sank completely, and he was cold against the wall of the carriage.
If the mother's family treats oranges like jewels, this family business is not impossible to consider.
She was unwilling, not because she felt that the threshold for her mother's family was low, but because her nephew looked down on her daughter.
When the husband was still there, he treated her very well, the joy of thrush was often there, and the mother-in-law was even more protective when she was embarrassed.
Rao is like this, she often lives in a deep house, and she is not less wronged because of her mother-in-law's pickiness.
The nephew has already looked down on his daughter before he becomes a husband and wife, and after a few years of honey blending oil, can he still be expected to shelter his daughter from the wind and rain?
You is weak, but not confused.
The daughter and her nephew must not agree to the relationship.
Her orange, it is precisely because she has suffered so much that she has to find someone who will cherish her.
The more You Shi returned to the mansion, the more he thought about it, the more he felt uncomfortable, and he unconsciously walked to the late autumn residence.
In late autumn, the sound of cicadas in the center was bursting, and You Shi heard laughter when he stepped into the courtyard door.
"Sister Xiaoyu, there's one there, it's on your left!"
You Shi fixed his eyes and saw that the maid named Xiaoyu was stepping on the tree to catch it, and the two little maids were standing under the tree to join in the fun.
Not far away, a recliner swayed slightly, and a girl in an apricot-colored shirt lay on it, squeezed by a fat cat beside her.
The sunlight shone through the branches and leaves, and gently fell on the girl's fair face, and also on the flower cat sleeping soundly.
One person and one cat, very warm.
You Shi looked at this scene and wanted to cry for some reason.
Bai Lu was fanning Feng Cheng when he saw You Shi hurriedly shouting, "Mrs. is here." β
The girl on the recliner opened her eyes and looked at the courtyard gate.
You Shi walked over, looked at the fine beads of sweat on his daughter's forehead, and said angrily: "Why don't you sleep in the house, the sun is so big outside." β
Feng Cheng stood up and smiled at You Shi: "I didn't sleep, I saw that Xiaoyu caught it." β
You Shi glanced at the little maid on the tree, and his heart was beating in shock.
Fortunately, my daughter is well-behaved, just to see.
"Mother didn't go out, why did she come back so soon?"
"Nothing happened, and I came back." Looking at her smiling daughter, You really couldn't say the words of Old Madam You.
Fortunately, she refused, whether it was her mother or her brother-in-law, it was impossible to say anything to a little girl in Orange.
"Mother is alright?" Feng Cheng looked at You Shi's reaction, and then thought about where she went today, and his heart moved.
Wouldn't it, she quietly buried a thorn in her mother's heart, and her grandfather's family took action?
It's too competitive!
Feng Cheng perked up, and his face was not revealing at all: "Mother didn't call me when she went out, my daughter only knew that you went to your grandmother's house, isn't your grandmother unwell?" β
"Your grandmother is fine, don't worry." Looking at the daughter who looked concerned, and then thinking about the mother who was bent on planning for her nephew, You Shi's heart became more and more uncomfortable.
Hearing You Shi say this, Feng Cheng was relieved: "That's good, otherwise my mother should be in a hurry." β
"Orangeβ" You's eyes were sour, and he wanted to cry.
"What's wrong with you?"
You Shi pressed back the tears and hugged her daughter's shoulder: "Mother just missed you suddenly." β
Feng Cheng was silent for a moment and hugged You Shi.
She also misses her mother.
Whether a mother is strong or weak, she is her mother.
"Mother."
"Huh?" You Shi let go of his hand and looked at the girl with a shallow smile.
"Eat watermelon? Sweet and cold watermelon soaked in well water. β
The topic changed too quickly, You Shi was stunned at first, and then nodded with a smile: "Okay." β
"Bailu, go cut the watermelon. Little fish, don't catch it, come down and eat watermelon, everyone has a share. β
The little fish jumped straight down from the tree.
When the two little maids heard that there was watermelon to eat, they were overjoyed.
The people in the late autumn residence were eating watermelon lively, and the big girl Wanshu over there in Changning Hall came over.
"Big girl, old lady, please go."
