Chapter 11 I want to buy exam questions~
It's not a big deal to quarrel in the dining room, the reason is that the eldest daughter-in-law, Li, knows that the second daughter-in-law secretly ate tofu at noon last day!
In Li's view, all the things of the Ning family are divided equally, even if they can't be divided equally, they can't let one person be greedy for ink.
"Second brother and sister, you can't do this, if you steal food like this in the future, then you will open your own stove." Li Shi had a cold face, she also wanted to take the opportunity to knock the third daughter-in-law, and wanted the second daughter-in-law and the third daughter-in-law to be obedient.
"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about, I can't starve when I'm pregnant with a child, what's the matter, I can't eat yet," although Xu was afraid of Li's, she would never back down half a step in terms of food and silver, "Big brother brought you and the child food twice in three days, and we didn't say anything, why can't it be our turn?" ”
Xu was pregnant, she couldn't control her temper at all, and tears fell down, as if she was very aggrieved, "The big house spends so much silver all year round, and we didn't say anything, what's the matter, I can't eat some tofu when I'm pregnant?" ”
Lao Er is a shrewd person, knowing that he can't offend the boss, he hurriedly smiled and said to the boss: "Big brother and sister-in-law, my daughter-in-law has a bad temper when she is pregnant, you should take care of it more." ”
Ning Zeren didn't look good, so he quickly drank the porridge and got up and left.
Li sat there with a cold face and fed the child, and did not say anything.
The more Xu thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, tears kept falling, crying and drinking at the same time, he couldn't eat it at all, and he felt aggrieved in his heart......
This breakfast was parted unhappily by the Ning family.
An Manyue sat in the room, vaguely heard the movement in the dining room, and said in a low voice: "The boss can't be a man, he doesn't know how to have a good relationship with the second brother on weekdays, and he studies all day long, and the love between the two brothers is almost gone." ”
"The boss looks down on Lao Er," Ning Yongchuan swallowed the last mouthful of porridge, put the bowl on the table next to him, and said lightly, "Lao Er's brain is flexible, thinking about business all day long, two people are not the same world, and it is impossible to get together." ”
"If you want me to say that it's better to split up directly, out of sight and out of mind, let them go their own way. Don't separate the third husband and wife, the two are not married yet. An Manyue said this and sighed, "The original body is thinking about doing a happy event for the third and the third family this summer." ”
"We can't separate families." Ning Yongchuan also hopes to split up in his heart, but the Ning family is now walking on thin ice, and splitting the family will only make the Ning family die, "The family power in this place is relatively large, no matter how much the boss and the second are not in harmony, they will be unanimous when they encounter something." ”
An Manyue said "oh", these things are not important to her, anyway, she only looked at the backyard, "Just do as you say, by the way, the eldest son is going to get married the day after tomorrow, how many gifts do you say is appropriate, forty or sixty?" ”
Ning Yongchuan flipped through his memories and said, "Sixty, this number is basically high in our village." ”
"Nacheng, we'll be delivering a piece of cloth at that time, and I'll go to town this afternoon to have a look." An Manyue said this, looking down at the clothes on his body, "By the way, buy some cloth for the whole family, summer is coming, it's time to make clothes." ”
The fabric of this world is far worse than the modern fabric, rough and faded and easy to rot, and it is almost bad to wear it for one year when it is made into clothes, don't think about wearing it for the next year.
"Then it's hard for you." Ning Yongchuan said sincerely.
"There's nothing hard to work for, but you, go back and paint more, otherwise our family's silver is not enough for me to waste." An Manyue smiled so much that her eyes were crooked, "I can especially spend money." ”
"Good!" Ning Yongchuan's promise was very refreshing, and he began to think about how to toss the boss and the second, who let the two of them stumble around today, it's not good to have the energy to make money.
After lunch, Ning Yongchuan called the eldest and fourth to the house to study, and An Manyue took Su and Ning Xueyu out of the house.
Xu looked at An Manyue with teary eyes, and the little fat hand reluctantly grabbed An Manyue's sleeve, and said pitifully: "Mother, I'll go out with you, okay?" ”
"Old second daughter-in-law, you are now the treasure of our family, you are still pregnant, you can't run around, be obedient, stay at home." An Manyue patted Xu's little fat hand and coaxed softly.
Li Shi was also looking at An Manyue with hope at this time, and she also wanted to follow her mother-in-law to the town, so that she could take the opportunity to order more things.
"The eldest daughter-in-law, you watch the eldest head study at home, and take good care of the second daughter-in-law," An Manyue ruthlessly broke the beautiful illusion of the Li family, completely ignoring the black face of the Li family, "You two concubines get along well, and I will let the third daughter-in-law help me carry things." ”
Li: Mother, can you make up a little more falsehood, obviously you are now the only one who favors the third daughter-in-law!
Xu: Mother, am I falling out of favor?
After An Manyue explained his home, he took his third daughter-in-law and Ning Xueyu to the town.
Ning Xueyu had never been to the town before, and this time she went out with her, she was very happy, chattering non-stop along the way, as for the Su family, she was also going out for the first time, her eyes flashed with a strange brilliance, looking around, as if she wanted to remember everything she had seen in her mind.
When she arrived in town, An Manyue first went to the grocery store to buy condiments.
An Manyue chose the daily condiments, her eyes fell on cumin, she didn't know if the people here had discovered the use value of cumin, pretended not to understand anything, looked at the king's shopkeeper suspiciously, and asked, "What is this?" ”
"It's cumin, it's coming in from the west, and no one likes to eat it, so it's never sold."
The shopkeeper Wang is a middle-aged woman, with a cool temperament, and she is not the kind of person who is greedy for a small one.
The shopkeeper Wang looked at An Manyue's face and kindly reminded: "Big sister, it's useless for you to buy this, don't buy it!" ”
An Manyue was still thinking about how to make money before, but now when he saw the idea of making money with cumin powder, he came up, and said with a smile: "Sister, how much cumin do you have in your house?" ”
"Just ten pounds." The shopkeeper sighed wistfully and said, "I took ten catties of goods and put them on for two months, but I didn't sell them." ”
"I'll take it home and think about it." An Manyue looked at cumin and said hesitantly, "Eldest sister, I want these ten catties." ”
The shopkeeper wanted to say something, but when she saw An Manyue staring at cumin, she responded, and she had already said what she had to say anyway.
The grocery store bought a total of three taels of silver, and the shopkeeper Wang saw that An Manyue couldn't take so many things, so he spent ten copper plates to rent a donkey cart for An Manyue.
An Manyue thanked the shopkeeper and went to Buzhuang.
An Manyue finally picked twelve pieces of green cloth and navy blue cloth, as well as six pieces of floral cloth, and finally bought two pieces of white cloth to match the clothes, and took the third daughter-in-law and Ning Xueyu to ride home in a donkey cart.
When she arrived at the door of the house, An Manyue hurriedly asked the eldest daughter-in-law to come over to move things, and the eldest daughter-in-law looked reluctant and drooped her face, as if someone else owed her a few hundred taels of silver.
An Manyue completely ignored Li's stinky face, waited for everything to move in, politely sent the donkey cart driver out, and divided it in the courtyard.
The green cloth and navy blue cloth were for everyone, six for each man and two for each woman, and as for the six pieces of floral cloth for the three daughters-in-law and the daughter-in-law, each of them could get six bodies.
This time, she prepared more clothes for her female dependents, and An Manyue also bought some milky white fabric for herself.
The fabrics were all divided, An Manyue looked at the fabrics in her hand and was a little worried, the original body was able to make clothes, but the needlework couldn't be done at all, after thinking about it, she decided to let her daughter make clothes for her, but she was worried that she would be tired of her daughter.
Ning Yongchuan couldn't help but smile when he heard An Manyue's thoughts, and said, "The eldest daughter-in-law's needlework is not bad, it's better for you to let the eldest daughter-in-law do it for you, so as not to tire your daughter." ”
"That's also done," An Manyue lay on the bed and cut her own clothes, bowed her head and said, "The eldest daughter-in-law has been in a panic recently, so she is looking for some work for her to do." ”
This is the joy of living at the top of the food chain, being able to call others to do the work at will.
As for whether Li will refuse her request, these are not within the scope of An Manyue's consideration.
After An Manyue finished cutting, he went to the door of Li's house with his clothes, and saw that Li was cutting clothes for the child, and said, "Eldest daughter-in-law, you took the time to help me make the clothes, and I have cut them all." ”
Li's hand holding the scissors trembled, and she looked at An Manyue in disbelief, she felt that her mother-in-law was now capable, and she dared to ask her to work.
"I ......"
Before Li's words could be spoken, An Manyue said to the big head sitting next to him holding the book: "Big head, come, I'll teach you to read." ”
Li's angry face instantly turned into a face with a bright smile, and he said flatteringly: "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely drive your clothes out first." ”
"Well, I'm sorry for you." An Manyue took the big head's hand and walked out, it is not easy to pinch the eldest daughter-in-law, as long as you call "big head", all problems are not a problem.
An Manyue really wants to teach Datou to read and write, in the eyes of outsiders, Datou is the eldest grandson of the Ning family, so he naturally has to teach him well, after all, he is the face of the Ning family.
An Manyue looked at the simple big head, and sighed silently in her heart, she has now become the kind of adult who forces her children to study.
The big head kid is really smart, and he really likes to read, every time An Manyue tells him a story in the book, he always listens wholeheartedly, and can repeat it on the spot, and his memory is much better than his father's.
As for Ning Zeren, the father of the big head, he was standing by Ning Yongchuan's bed at this time and reciting the book, stumbling for a long time, and he hadn't memorized the half page of the book.
Ning Zeren clenched the book in his hand, secretly glanced at Ning Zezhi who was standing on the side, his eyes were a little red, and he reluctantly put down the book in his hand.
He knew very well in his heart that it was impossible for him to be admitted to Xiucai like this!
After hesitating, Ning Zeren opened his mouth and said, "Dad, can you lend me five hundred taels of silver to buy the exam questions?" ”
