Chapter 157: There Must Be a Pit in the Brain!
Yao's family really can't figure it out, the old Xu family is so poor, obviously it is a poor family with mud legs, and it is not a family of high-ranking families, Xu Lao Er is a country man, if he says something unpleasant, he is like an ant, if he is crippled, he will be crippled, and the old Xu family is not only Xu Lao Er's son, but also a Xiucai eldest son, why do you have to devote the whole family to save him?
Isn't it obvious that everyone will suffer and have a bad life.
Xu Youde and Xu Zhang's brains must have a pit!
It's just that she can only think about it in her heart, and talk to Xu Darong in private, but she doesn't dare to say it in front of the juniors.
Otherwise, the children are too young to hide their words, and that will be a big deal.
Xu Chengfeng was reluctant to wear the new clothes, shrugged his nose and said, "Mother, it's all your fault, why do you say that this clothing material is worth so much money?" You just say that you just bought it for a tael of silver, isn't it enough? And this is obviously the new clothes you made for me, so I don't want to pick up other people's old, I don't want everyone's old miss, I am the eldest lady of the Xu family, why should I pick up other people's old? β
Yao Shi poked her fingers, "I told you before I came here, don't bring this, don't wear this, you have to show off, what kind of material is this worth, can I make it up?" This kind of shiny satin, this kind of color, you are your milk, your aunt will not go out to ask if they don't have a long mouth? Maybe there are this kind of materials sold in the town, and they can't be deceived, they can only be said to be sent by people, and they are indeed sent by people, and they are the Boxing Fabric sent by your father's master's family, and we can't afford to buy it, but in other words, your grandmother feels better. If you want to say that it was a cloth for sending, your grandmother's first thought is, why don't you take it back and make clothes for your aunt? An unfilial piety is pressed on your father's head again, making your father difficult to behave......"
"Mother, woo woo woo, I've told you many times, I just don't like the countryside, I don't like to go back to the countryside, my father is a talented official, a teacher and a learned person, I am the young lady of the scholarly family, I often run to the countryside, what kind of system? Those matchmakers who say they are close to me won't tell me about good people's doors. Especially I hate it when they call me big girl! If outsiders know that I still have a nickname Da Ya, my girlfriends, I'm afraid they will make me laugh to death......" Xu Chengfeng's good-looking little face was full of tears of grievance.
Yao Shi looked at this innocent daughter and sighed, "When can you learn from your brother, your brother will coax your father to be happy, your brother is more than a hundred times stronger than people whether he is a person or a worker, or he looks at people and looks at people, it is your mother who raised you to be too squeamish, too simple, and do not know the difficulties and dangers of the world." When people call you a big girl, you can't stand it? Originally, your nickname was Da Ya, in case in the future, people say something even more unpleasant, wouldn't you be angry to death? β
Xu Chengfeng was educated by Yao, and tears flowed.
Delicate, biting her lip, that pitiful little appearance is distressing and cute.
It's no wonder that Yao's love for her, it's really Xu Chengfeng's girl who was born too well, because this girl was born well, and many well-off people in the county have taken a fancy to her, and she is only thirteen this year, and there are matchmakers who don't stop coming to the door, and Yao's also easily made a lot of contacts because of this girl's light.
And Xu Chengfeng is also literate.
Before the age of ten, when Xu Darong taught others, as long as the main family did not object, he would take her with him, and teach her by the way.
Therefore, Xu Chengfeng also got to know a lot of ladies of the same age from famous families in the county, and his fame spread out in this way.
"Okay, it's just a new dress, you've also worn a lot of water, just be it, when we go back, my mother will make you another one, and next time you will make a different color, it will look better."
At this time, Xu Chengfeng was satisfied.
Reluctantly, he handed the clothes he had taken off to Yao.
"Also, the question of eating, who only eats two meals? I had lunch so late, it was so unpalatable, I didn't have dinner yet, I didn't have any snacks and fruits, I had to do everything by myself, I had to do it all by my mother, it was all the work of our old mother......"
"Shhhh How did my mother explain to you? Besides, my mother is going to hit you in the mouth! β
Xu Chengfeng rolled his eyes, "Okay, I won't say it." Okay, mother, let's tell my father, let's go home early. β
"What's the hurry? Your father doesn't take money, and he doesn't pick the big head, it's useless to leave our family, and after two days, as soon as the county town sends the letter urging the master's family, your father will naturally let us go. β
"Oh, okay."
After doing the ideological work, Yao went out with his clothes and handed them over to Xu Zhang.
When I was about to go out, I remembered something.
Turned his head to Xu Chengfeng and said, "Your mouth is stricter, you don't need your mother to teach you, anyway, it's a hard time at home, there is no silver, you don't want to brag about what you eat and drink at home in front of the second and third girls, you know?" And you are the eldest sister, you learn from your brother, try to learn from the eldest sister, even if it is to verbally care for your brothers and sisters, you know? Also, if you can, ask Erya Sanya, how does your aunt's loquat ointment loquat dew be made......"
This is what the Yao family explained to Xu Chengfeng on the way here.
Now it's just a matter of re-admonishing, this girl is too naΓ―ve, and she is a pampered person who can't be wronged.
I'm always afraid that she is unreliable and bad.
Xu Chengfeng responded, "I know, mother." β
***
As soon as Luo Shi cleaned up half of the dishes and chopsticks, Xiao Liuzi peed his pants and cried.
She took advantage of the situation and went back to the room with Xiao Liuzi, and the rest of the things were handed over to the second and third girls.
Xu Laosi lay on the bed and took a nap.
While changing Xiao Liuzi's pants, Luo said in a low voice, "In charge, the eldest brother really doesn't pay a penny?" Didn't you tell them about your family's difficulties before? Big brother, it's so difficult for them to get to this point? I can't even afford to rent a horse-drawn carriage, so I came here as a thing? β
Xu Laosi didn't fall asleep at all, who wasn't depressed when he ate this meal?
He traveled thousands of miles to the county seat to invite his eldest brother's family, but as a result, when he was not at home, there was only Xu Chengfeng, a little girl, at home.
I waited left and right for two days before I waited for someone back.
Seeing that the eldest brother and sister-in-law had packed their things, he thought that he would come back with some silver.
Because he lived in the eldest brother's house for two days, and when he saw food and drink, he didn't look like a family without money.
Knowing that the eldest brother will be conservative, he won't take too much!
As a result, there was not a penny.
In order to block Xu's mouth, Yao also volunteered to take out the silver bracelet that his mother married.
