Chapter 36, Reckoning
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, every family has to go to the grave to worship their ancestors.
Yesterday, the Jin Baozhu family kept the New Year until midnight.
At this time, the sun is all drying his buttocks, and no one in the Jin family's courtyard is still quiet.
Li Nianlian's mother and daughter are greedy for pleasure, and they are sitting at the small table eating at this time.
"Mother, I've already planned, let's finish eating, let's go to my uncle's house, I'll ......"
Li Jinshi slammed his chopsticks on the table, "Don't think I'm old and confused, I know better than you what you think." ”
"I just can't figure it out, isn't it just a broken showman? What's there to worry about? ”
"Besides, all these years, look at what that stinky boy has done to you."
"Lian'er, you believe in your mother, we don't want him, my mother will ask you about a better one."
"With your appearance, the rich and noble people in the town are not allowed to send them to your door for you to choose."
"You're not in a hurry now, let's choose slowly, my mother will make you prosperous and rich for the rest of your life, and you will enjoy it endlessly."
Li Nianlian's white eyes: Dead old woman, she really has long hair and short knowledge, what rich and noble people are up to me, is it so easy for rich and noble people to enter? It's still the rich and noble, and the people are all cabbage on the stall.
The body has a delicate and pitiful charm, "My mother always plans for me, how can I not know, but Lian'er's heart has long been given to the fourth cousin, how can I be willing to commit to others." ”
Li Jinshi hated that iron could not become steel, "You dead girl, but you are just a broken teacher, I really don't know which tendon you are wrong." ”
Li Nianlian decided to take a dose of heavy medicine, "Mother, come here." ”
"I heard Liu Cui'e say that the fourth cousin came back from outside and brought a lot of recipes, and now they are all sold to the Yunkelai restaurant in the town."
"And it is said that it was sold for thousands of taels of silver!"
When Li Jinshi heard this, he was startled, "What you said is true?" ”
Seeing that Li Jin's complexion was gradually eroded by greed, Li Nianlian smiled.
"Of course, it's true, isn't Liu Da also working in a restaurant in the town? He came back and said it, and I guess the fourth cousin has more than that. ”
Li Jinshi pondered calmly for a moment, "Even if he earns more than a thousand taels of silver, it is not his own, besides, when you marry into the town, what is that one thousand taels, it is not just a casual coquette." ”
Li Nianlian...... Nine of the ten rich men are fat, how can there be four cousins who are pleasing and good-looking.
"Mother, when I win the heart of my fourth cousin, are you still afraid that you won't get those money-making recipes?"
"At that time, even if the fourth cousin treats me badly, I have money in hand, and I can't find any kind of man."
Jin Baozhu is sleeping soundly at this time, otherwise he knows Li Nianlian's shocking thoughts, and he has to complain.
Sure enough, the table is ruthless, regardless of age.
The time to sleep is always short, and it is not too early for the family to wake up.
He hurriedly heated the top drawer of yesterday's leftovers, cooked a large pot of green vegetables and radish soup, and Lin baked a stack of mixed dough cakes in the pot next door.
A comfortable lunch.
Jin Baozhu and several elder brothers sat on the small bench with their stomachs shy one by one, basking in the sun while "eliminating food" with their minds.
Then he saw two annoying voices coming into the courtyard.
"This jewel girl is really blessed! The elders were very busy, and they didn't see anyone call to help. ”
As soon as Li Nianlian heard her mother's words, she secretly said that it was not good, and hurriedly rounded the field, "Mother, you are really, how big is Baozhu, and not helping is the biggest help!" ”
The hand that grabbed Li Jin's arm tightened secretly.
Li Jin didn't know that his daughter was just blaming her, but when he thought of so much white silver, he shut his mouth stupidly.
Golden Treasure Bead ...... This Li Nianlian really lived up to her name, a proper white lotus.
The real Nyima is a girl who can't hear your praise and disparagement.
The Jin family was picking up things for the grave in the yard, and when they saw the style of the two women, they all pretended not to see it.
Only Xiao Wang's family secretly exchanged a look with Li Nianlian, and in an instant, no one saw it.
Both of them were thick-faced, and when they saw that no one was talking, they took a small bench and sat down in the courtyard.
"Big brother, I know you don't want me to come over, but today is a big day to worship my ancestors and go to the grave, and I, as the daughter of the Jin family, should also come back to join you."
Before the old man could speak, she continued, "Even if you remove me from the clan, it's just you...... With the meaning of sister-in-law. ”
"Don't forget, when my father and mother were alive, it hurt me as my life."
Wang was about to talk back, but was stopped by the old man.
"Expelling you, that's what I mean, and it's also the trend of the times, and everyone expects it!"
"If you want to go to the grave, I won't stop you, and it's not that you can't find it, just prepare something yourself."
Li Jinshi thought that he was so low, and this dead old man was still so unsympathetic, and he was suddenly angry.
"Golden ......"
Before she could say anything, she was stopped by Li Nianlian.
"Mother, since my uncle and aunt don't want to, let's go by ourselves! In any case, filial piety is the most important thing. ”
Before coming, Li Nianlian discussed countermeasures with Li Jin's family, and after Li Jin's saw his daughter's eyes, he softened and followed.
The ancestral tomb of the Jin family is on a relatively flat hill next door.
From a distance, in addition to the lush cypress trees, there are also some fireworks.
At a glance, you can see that someone must have arrived first.
Sure enough, when the group went up, they saw Jin Shizong and his family kowtowing to worship.
After a brief greeting, they turned and went to the grave of their old man.
Just when they had just lit the incense wax, Li Jinshi took me, Li Nianlian, to follow.
Wang muttered in a low voice, "It's really ghostly." ”
However, this time, the Li Jin family did not have any words and movements, and kept quietly kowtowing to the side to burn paper.
Jin Baozhu: It always feels like something is wrong.
Jin Daxi: When things go wrong, there must be demons.
The two shrewd men silently paid attention to the two of them, for fear that they would give birth to some kind of moth.
The cemetery, which was originally silent, suddenly became lively and noisy.
"Mother! Mother, can you hear your daughter talking? Are you doing well down there, do you miss me? ”
"Mother, my daughter is bitter! I was bullied by my husband's family and abandoned it, and now I don't even want my brother anymore! ”
"Mother, open your eyes and see! Look at what your daughter is doing now! Mother~"
Li Nianlian also made a momentum on the side, "Mother, don't be like this, I believe that she knows what she is doing, and I don't want to see you live such a hard and painful life." ”
As if she couldn't persuade Li Jinshi, she turned around and slammed on the ground, "Milk, milk, you show your spirit!" Look at my mother! It's too hard for my mother. ”
Jin Baozhu: Obviously, it's more difficult for us to listen to you sing here, okay! Turning over and over just a few words, the best deserves to be incompetent at all.
Old Man Jin was trembling with anger at this moment, and he couldn't stop coughing.
"You...... You ...... How many years have my father and mother been there, and you are still disturbing their tranquility during the New Year. ”
"You were abandoned by your husband's family, you deserve it, do you think I'm old and confused, don't you know the ugly things you did after your husband died?"
"There is also the matter of removing the clan, you are not qualified to mention it again, if it weren't for the fact that you are a living life, I would have strangled you a long time ago."
There were many people who came to the grave along the way, and when they heard that the old man was a "scandal", they all began to discuss it in private.
"Ugly? What is the ugly thing, doesn't it mean that she came back because her in-laws were unkind and didn't want to see her? ”
"What's unkind, the Li family was originally selected by the old couple of the Jin family, how can they be unkind."
"I'll just say it! It turns out that this is the case, but I don't know what the ugly thing is. ”
Aunt Niu is also among them, and when she heard this, she couldn't help it, others didn't know, but she knew, over the years, if it weren't for Aunt Meifeng's sake, she would have been eager to see it.
"What else can be ugly, what else can a woman with a dead husband do!"
"Phew!"
Although Aunt Niu didn't explain it, it was because she left so much space that it was exciting and interesting enough.
Li Jin didn't expect the old man to poke this matter out, and his old face was extremely embarrassed.
Li Nianlian was flustered in her heart, and she gritted her teeth and glanced at Li Jin's family, eager to slash her mother.
What's more, it's not a mother.
Xiao Wang, who had been watching the show next to him, naturally noticed Li Nianlian's eyes, glanced at her, and signaled her to calm down.
According to the original plan, Li Nianlian secretly pinched Li Jin's hand.
Then Li Jinshi fell down with a pop.
When Li Nianlian saw it, her tears flowed like tap water that didn't need money.
Regardless of the people on the ground, he walked to the old man on his knees and kept kowtowing, "Uncle, please, uncle, you save your mother, your mother ......"
was still condemning the people who despised Li Jin's family, but at this time, it can be regarded as a free performance of a wave of Sichuan opera to change face.
"This Li Jin is also a pitiful, look at it, it's all over, my brother and nephew are not willing to help."
"Yes! It is indeed not easy for a widow to drag a child. ”
"If you want to say that this Jin family is really ruthless, you can see that the lotus girl's head is rotten, and no one has gone up."
Jin Baozhu listened to the familiar voice, turned his head to look, and saw the tall daughter-in-law Cui Shi pinching a handful of melon seeds, and her face was gloating.
What others say, she doesn't care about the gold treasure beads, anyway, she can live by herself, just bark as a dog, but this family, she can't bear it, she doesn't need to endure it anymore.
