Chapter 176: The Best Old Lady of the Farm (1)
Qingyun County, Mujia Village
Qiao Mu was lying on the wooden bed, his eyes half-open, Mu Mu looked at the cobwebs not far away, and listened attentively to the noise of several people outside.
"My mother was stunned, and this has nothing to do with me.
It's all the little girl of the second family's who is provoking, and today she even said in front of her mother that her mother abused her, said that she wanted to split up, and said that as long as their two rooms were separated, they would be able to live a good life in the second room, and they would not need to subsidize our big house and three rooms.
Look at it, it seems that the second family went to the county as an apprentice, and the mother didn't pay the money, if it wasn't for the mother who spent two taels of silver to buy some gifts for the carpenter Wang, how would people accept the second family? ”
The third daughter-in-law, Mu Weishi, listened to her husband Mu Chunshi questioning her mother-in-law about her faintness, and hurriedly opened her mouth to defend herself, and accused the second family of the big girl who talked nonsense with the second family today.
"Two taels of silver, my father in recent years which month did not send a tael of silver back to you, from the beginning of a hundred wen a month, to a month and a half a month, one tael, this gift is a full ten years, and during the New Year's holidays, sometimes even two or three taels are sent back.
Doesn't it add up to two or two?
You are not as ruthless as you! ”
As soon as Mu Weishi finished speaking, the eldest daughter of Mu Chuntian in the second room, that is, the little girl mentioned in Mu Wei's mouth just now, immediately reprimanded and sarcastically in a relatively immature voice.
In her opinion, her grandmother just spent two taels of silver as a gift, and then sent her father to the king carpenter to endure hardship, saying that it was a carpenter's apprentice, in fact, it was similar to a slave, and she couldn't fight back by beating and scolding, and she began to work as an apprentice at the age of seven, and studied for ten years, until she was seventeen years old, she was officially a teacher, and then she had to send the money she earned to her home every month, and she could hardly leave a penny of silver.
There is no such a lucrative deal.
"Big girl, don't talk nonsense, this is as it should be.
Parents are here, no selfish property, three brothers and sisters, the eldest girl just talked nonsense, don't mind. ”
Even if Mu Wang's heart is also dissatisfied, he doesn't dare to say it openly, and even has to reprimand her daughter, so as not to let people spread what she said, because it is a common practice for children to hand over the money they earn to the public school for use together, and all families basically do this, even if they are dissatisfied, no one dares to say it, otherwise they will be scolded by others in the backbone, scolded for not being filial, and scolded for stirring up the family, if what her daughter just said is spread out, then I am afraid that there will be no matchmaker near the village who is willing to come to help her say goodbye. Because no mother-in-law wants such a daughter-in-law.
Therefore, she naturally had to quickly block her daughter's mouth and prevent her from continuing to talk nonsense.
"Yes, nonsense, a child's family, I don't know where so many words come from, and a set of sets, isn't it you who taught her, can she be self-taught, I think you are just dissatisfied with your mother, borrow your daughter's mouth to say it, and then tell us what children are not sensible, nonsense, what do you think I'm stupid?
I'm too lazy to quarrel with you, I'll wake up and have my own justice, some people, I have to cherish the time in our house, maybe I will be driven home by my mother after a while, maybe I can get the book of retirement, oops, I haven't seen what the book looks like until now, and I have to let me see and see, by the way, and open my eyes! ”
Mu Wei's family is everyone's maid in the end, she speaks more than ordinary people, she is much more teasing, and she doesn't bother to continue arguing after stabbing twice, dragging her husband, turning around and going back to the house.
Although Mu Wangshi still wanted to defend herself, she was stupid, so she could only sigh helplessly, and then dragged her daughter, that is, the eldest girl, back to her house with a somewhat tangled face.
After listening to the quarrel outside, Qiao Mu also sighed, took a ginseng fruit out again and ate it, and waited until the digestion was completed and he felt better, and then he began to accept the memory.
There is nothing to say about the original life, it is an ordinary little girl from a peasant family, when she reached her age, she fell in love with Mu Huayu of Mujia Village under the introduction of the matchmaker, at that time, the Mu family could barely be called a farming family, there were hundreds of acres of land at home, and the three sons were studying, although only one was admitted to the Tongsheng, and the others could only be regarded as a student, without any fame, but the status in Mujia Village was not bad, quite respected.
Mu Huayu, who was married by the original body, was the only child in the Mu family at that time, of course, the original family's background was not bad, the family gave three acres of dowry fields, and Mu Huayu was not admitted to the Xiucai at the age of eighteen, so he fell in love with the original body that was quite white and beautiful at that time, and the two successfully got married, got married and had children.
In the first two years of marriage, they only had one daughter.
When she became pregnant again in the third year, Mu Huayu's father, that is, the original father-in-law, had a serious illness, even if he sold his property to buy all kinds of good medicines to raise, he only lasted two months and went, because the original mother-in-law died earlier, so after the death of her father-in-law, it was natural to divide the family, but at that time, a lot of family property had been sold to her father-in-law for disease treatment, so even if the three brothers divided the family property equally, in the end, each of them only divided more than 30 acres of land, with three or five taels of silver and a yard.
Although the original husband wanted to grow by himself, he was pregnant at the time, so he could only rent out the field and let others plant it to collect some rent.
In the autumn, the original body gave birth to the eldest son, and the next day, the original husband fell off the list again, not only did the original husband not pay much attention to the son he just had, but the original body also felt that this son was unlucky, and he didn't like it very much, and later gave birth to the second, third, and fourth, and he didn't pay much attention to the boss.
After seven or eight years of continuous examination, the original family has no other fields except for the original three acres of dowry field, Mu Huayu also completely collapsed because of repeated failures and the fact that the family fields were sold out, and he couldn't afford to get sick, and he went in two days.
After that, it was the original body that pulled five children to grow up, and the hardships of pulling five children to grow up in three acres of land can be imagined, but fortunately, the five children were in good health, and they didn't get sick or anything when they were young, otherwise I am afraid I really can't survive.
After that, she quarreled over trivial things like ordinary peasant women, from a widow to a shrew, but fortunately, the eldest daughter and eldest son began to help the family at the age of seven or eight, helping to farm and do housework, and the second son was seven years old when he also had to learn from a carpenter who did not want any gifts, but at that time, the original body knew that the carpenter who could learn with him without any money was not willing to teach others the craft at all, but just wanted to find a few free laborers to help with the work.
So, in the end, he gritted his teeth and pulled out two taels of silver from home, and found him a good carpenter master, at that time, the two taels of silver were very much for the original body, for the two taels of silver, I didn't get any meat for a year, and I ate more wild vegetables on weekdays, and it took a year to slow down.
