CHAPTER XXXVII

The so-called bad habits are difficult to change, even if the Liu family is really a little worried about the old man Lin, and was almost frightened by his angry words that he would drive her back to her parents' house, but she was still unconvinced in her heart.

Now that it has been stable for two days, she saw that Lin Laohan didn't mention those things anymore, and even always relied on her temperament, she couldn't help but mutter, couldn't it be that the old man was just scaring her?

After the last set, the people in the village said that the second house got silver, bought meat and grain, and bought a lot of cotton to make a thick quilt, and lived a good life.

But the family who was born got the letter that she was lying down in anger, and they didn't think about taking some delicious food to serve her. When she thought of this, she felt a little angry in her heart.

In addition, yesterday Zhang's began to sigh and chatter with her, saying that she went to the second room and wanted Baoru to come and see her as a milk. Milk. Target. But Baoru's daughter, who lost money, not only didn't come, but also kept singing against Zhang's family, so she almost scolded her directly for being a milk. Milk. The old ones don't die.

Liu gritted his teeth and thought about it, couldn't help but spit at the mouth, and scolded: "That disrespectful thing, a thousand dollars to lose money, the old lady should be damn to guard the old Lin family's belongings, and those white-eyed wolves who save money will be hocked!" ”

"That's right, our family is interested in studying now, and pen, ink, paper, and inkstone cost money. A few days ago, Youzhi also said that in their school, only he still uses rough-edged paper, and everyone else uses the best rice paper to practice calligraphy......" Zhang sighed on the side, and even the youngest son on the kang didn't care about teasing. She looked at Liu and said in an aggrieved tone, "It's just that I have the ambition to feel sorry for my grandmother, I'm afraid that you will be in a hurry, and you won't let me say it." ”

Liu listened to his own family. The baby grandson was still a head shorter than others, and said a little anxiously: "You are shallow-eyed, can my eldest grandson save money?" Let me tell you, if you have ambitions, you will succeed in the future, you pick and instigate, if you delay him to test his fame, be careful that the old lady beats you to death! ”

Although Zhang's was counted, his heart was comfortable. She knew that when her mother-in-law said this, she was planning to supplement her family's ambitions. But even if she has a plan in her heart, she still pretends to be Ai Ai on her face.

It wasn't until Liu waved his hand to drive her out that she said again: "There is also the old . . . Second, I have been thinking about finding a place to learn crafts recently, mother, you know that all good craftsmen need to be honored......"

When Liu thought of Youcheng, he couldn't help frowning, "What are you going to learn?" ”

Nowadays, the craftsmen in the farmhouse are also popular, regardless of whether they are carpenters or blacksmiths, and their lives are very nourishing. After all, whether the farmer is marrying or doing farm work, he must use tools.

Even if those carpenters and blacksmiths are old and can't do their jobs, they can still accept apprentices and pay filial piety for a few years. So, that's a really good way out.

As soon as Zhang heard it, he knew that Liu's intention was moved, so he hurriedly said: "I plan to learn to be a carpenter, it just so happens that there is a familiar carpenter master in my mother's house, and I said that I can help talk about filial piety." If you really can't do it, you can only learn the craft from the butcher if you have success. After a pause, she pretended to be aggrieved and said, "My mother brought a letter and said that the village Zhang butcher is looking for an apprentice, and filial piety only needs a few cups of tea and water...... It's just that in the future, he won't be old enough to come back to honor his mother. ”

As soon as Liu heard this, he immediately slapped on the edge of the kang with a snap, pointed at Zhang's nose and scolded: "Can that butcher be able to do it casually?" Youcheng's body is not strong, if you let him be a butcher, you won't be afraid of him......" Xu thought of the bad luck of what she said, and she quickly spit out a few more mouthfuls.

"Okay, let your mother's family help find a carpenter, but you have to tell your father and mother, if the filial piety is too high, you won't be able to achieve anything."

Zhang's got cheap, and said a lot of good and obedient things to Liu. By the way, he also coaxed his youngest son to hug and gnaw at Liu.

Liu was troubled by his favorite little grandson, and the little anger in his heart was completely smoothed.

"Go, go, you blind, old. The second family will also make the old lady uncomfortable. I didn't see that the old lady was dying of thirst, so I hurriedly went to boil some water for the old lady and sent it over. Liu hugged his little grandson and shouted at Zhang with squinted eyes.

Zhang's was startled by Liu's suddenly raised voice, and he originally heard his mother-in-law scolding the old man. The two families scolded themselves, and she was a little annoyed and panicked.

It can be seen that she wants to spend her own money on the pretext of boiling water, but Zhang's eyes still can't help but light up, and he hurriedly flattered with a smile: "Mother, you see that I don't serve you well, so I'll go and boil water for you." In the future, you just wait to enjoy the blessings, and when we have the ambition to become an official master, let him add seven or eight maids to you, and then make you feel comfortable. There is also success, if you learn to work as a carpenter, you will definitely be honored first when you earn money! ”

Seeing what she said, Liu pinched his little grandson's chubby arm and responded twice with his mother-in-law's score. Seeing that Zhang Shi turned around and was about to go out to work, she also advised: "I don't have a taste in my mouth, remember to put some sugar in me!" ”

Zhang Shi paused, white sugar is very expensive these days, and a pound of white sugar is much more expensive than a pound of meat. The point in her house was still her mother who felt sorry for her and let people bring it, and there was only a small bag in total. Usually she saves a lot, let alone take it out to honor Liu's family, even if she is reluctant to drink sugar water herself.

But when she thought that her mother-in-law must still have money in her hand, the reluctance in her heart faded.

However, when she came out of the door of the main house, she still pursed her lips secretly, and thought in her heart: A lot of old age is still thinking about the objects in her daughter-in-law's house, and she is really ashamed.

When she turned around and walked towards the stove room, she happened to meet Lin Dachong, who came back with her father-in-law Lin Laohan. Immediately, she rolled her eyes, and asked with red eyes: "Dad, Da Chong, do you drink sugar water?" ”

Lin Laohan frowned, "What kind of sugar water do you drink for no reason!" ”

Seeing that his man also looked at him with a puzzled face, Zhang hurriedly explained: "My mother has been feeling uncomfortable these days, so I want to bring the white sugar that my mother sent to you to eat, and boil some sugar water for my mother." ”

As soon as he heard this, Lin Laohan guessed that it was probably the good things in his mother-in-law's house.

However, he thought that his mother-in-law had indeed been honest for a few days, and over the years, his mother-in-law had also added a lot of silver to the big house. At this time, I just want to drink some sugar water, but it's not too much.

He sighed, pinched the cigarette stick in his hand that was barely tied with hemp rope, and said in a deep tone: "You have a heart......

Lin Dachong looked at his daughter-in-law, who was obviously virtuous, and said, "Dad, why don't you go back to the house first, and I'll go and pick up some firewood." ”

Lin Laohan's cloudy eyes drooped slightly, and he hummed dispensably, and then hunched over and walked towards the main house.

As for Zhang's calculations, he didn't care at all.

In the room, Liu leaned over and took out the jar with silver ingots and copper plates hidden under the window, and after a crackling sound, she began to count cross-legged on the kang.

"The bride price of eight or two, the loss of money is really valuable."

As for the acre of land that the old man said about the second room and the land allocated to the second room, she actually didn't pay attention to it. Although it is clearly written on the family separation documents, I heard that Li Zheng also took the Wang family and Mancang to the county government to change the land deed, but in the end, the land is still in the hands of the Lin family.

Regardless of whether it is held by the Wang family or by Mancang, she can find a reason to come back in the future.

It's probably because the wind is too tight, so the Liu family didn't listen to the news that the field fell under Lin Baoru's name. So much so that later, when she was crying in the courtyard of the second room, she was slapped in the face by Liu Shulai, who returned to her parents' house, and Lin Baoru with the title deed.

Of course, that's all for later.

At this moment, she counted out a few broken silver horns, and counted out a hundred copper plates one by one in the palm of her hand, thinking about asking the eldest daughter-in-law to send it to her eldest grandson for a while.

As soon as Lin Laohan entered the door, he saw broken silver and a few silver ingots on the kang, as well as copper plates scattered into a small pile. He narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath to suppress the awkwardness in his heart.

"Didn't you say that there is no money at home? If you want to die or cry alive today, you will take two taels of silver and let the boss give the second room! Lin Laohan suddenly spoke, making the Liu family tremble.

But when she saw that it was her own man, she said angrily: "You are thinking about the unsuccessful one in the second room, and the few people who lost money." If I don't care about some aspiring brothers anymore, then this eldest grandson won't be over! ”

Lin Laohan's face changed again and again when she said this. When he thought of the words he had just said to himself about the Zhang family, his heart was very blocked. Look at the daughter-in-law who is regarded as a treasure by her mother-in-law, even if she boils water, she also has her own calculations.

I don't know, what is blinded by my mother-in-law's heart, why can't I remember the few people in the second room, and I waited for a large family to come?

But he thought about it, and it was a matter of giving him an extra acre of land for the second room. Now, as long as this mother-in-law no longer tosses the jokes of letting people see Lao Lin's family and the second room, then she can do whatever she likes.

Thinking of this, Lin Laohan didn't say anything more, but he couldn't hear her say that the eldest grandson had an old man's chatter, so he pinched his own bad cigarette stick and turned around and went out.

Seeing that Lin Laohan left silently, Liu became more and more sure of his own conjecture, and estimated that that night, this old thing just couldn't wipe his face to scare and scare himself.

As soon as she remembered how frightened she had been that night, she couldn't help but snort coldly, and she lost even interest in counting the silver.

The old thing, after having the ability, was stained with the light of ambition, success and talent, and let the family in the second room drag him down to support his old age. Anyway, she made up her mind to be the majestic old lady of the official family in the drama.
