Chapter 55
It's not too late at this time, and there are a few mothers-in-law who have come back from the market on the road. When encountered, Lin Baoru was not timid, if she was acquainted, she would say hello to "auntie". If you are familiar but can't remember who it is, most of them will nod and say hello.
Her performance was also decent, so that people could not make mistakes, but she would not praise a few words.
It's rare that she had a dull temperament before, and she never took the initiative to speak when she met someone. Therefore, when others looked at her eager appearance, they couldn't help but sigh with emotion that since they divided the family, a few people in the second room of the Lin family seemed to have changed their temperament.
Although the peasant family loves to gossip, most of them are honest and simple. was worried that Lin Baoru would be embarrassed, so a few people just said a few words at the bottom.
It's probably cold, and there is no one at the door of Lizheng's house, which is the most lively on weekdays.
Although she came to visit the door, Lin Baoru didn't want to go directly into the courtyard with a big face. So she stood at the door of Lizheng's house and shouted, "Auntie, are you there?" ”
Before Lizheng's daughter-in-law could speak, Lizheng's daughter-in-law Qin, who was feeding the cattle in the cowshed at the back, shook her hands and walked out. She saw that it was Lin Baoru, and quickly let people into the courtyard, "You are dressed up like this, my sister-in-law almost didn't dare to recognize you." ”
Lin Baoru came back from the market and didn't change her clothes, so she was still wearing a brand new padded jacket at this time. If you just talk about pants, there is nothing to see, but she is wearing a turquoise cotton jacket, which just matches her complexion very white and tender. In addition, she came over generously at this time, and she lost the childish spirit of the past, and at first glance she really looked like a big girl from that big family.
It is precisely because she is very different from the past that she has said this from Sister-in-law Qin.
The person who spoke was the daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the Li family. She has a lively temperament and a warm heart, so she has an excellent reputation in the village. If there's any downside, it's that it's a bit of a philistine.
In the past, when she saw Lin Baoru, she might not have been so eager. It's just that she dared to go to the market today, and she knows that the inconspicuous girl in front of her has made soap beans that decent people rush to buy.
If she can accept her own love, then in the future, regardless of whether she gives it away or sells it, won't she be able to get some cheapness for herself?
In addition, her father-in-law has been carrying her and her mother-in-law from time to time in the past few days, so that they can have a good relationship with Lin Baoru. Even if you can't have a deep friendship, don't offend people.
Sister-in-law Qin has been married to the main family in Taoxi Village for several years, and she has long been used to seeing all kinds of human affairs. Besides, she also knows that her father-in-law, who has lived for most of her life and is considered to be an inclementable person, has always been accurate to look at. Since he spoke. confessed, then Lin Baoru must have something for him to look at.
So at this moment, she naturally showed a good deal to Lin Baoru in and out of her words.
Lin Baoru can be regarded as having been here once, and the last time she came, Sister-in-law Qin saw that her face was still lukewarm. But at that time, she didn't dislike her, let alone say anything unpleasant.
Now she suddenly became enthusiastic, which made Lin Baoru a little unaccustomed.
She felt a little awkward in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, and only said embarrassedly: "Sister-in-law, don't make fun of me." ”
Sister-in-law Qin looked at her like this, and couldn't help laughing: "What's this, is it difficult for people to say that you are handsome?" With that, she took Lin Baoru's hand and went into the yard, and looked up at the side of the main house and shouted, "Mother, Sister Baoru is here." ”
When Lizheng's daughter-in-law heard the movement, she put down the half-contained soles in her hand. She put on her clothes and beckoned them into the house through the window, "It's cold outside, come in and warm up for a while." ”
"Auntie, don't get off the kang, I'm here to say a few words to you and my sister-in-law." Lin Baoru entered the house and saw that Lizheng's daughter-in-law was about to get off the kang, so she hurriedly spoke.
"Then you hurry up and sit on the kang to warm up," Lizheng's daughter-in-law said, and sent her daughter-in-law to pour hot water.
"Auntie, sister-in-law, don't bother. In the past, I didn't often walk around the village, but now I want to open it, and I want to visit the door but I don't have a good place to go. Lin Baoru didn't follow the meaning of Lizheng's daughter-in-law to get on the kang, but just sat sideways on the edge of the kang, and said shyly, "Thinking about it, I can only think of you......"
"My mother always said in the past that my aunt and sister-in-law are kind-hearted, if you didn't help me pull it, I'm afraid my mother and I wouldn't be able to survive now." No matter what the purpose of coming was to send objects or what to do, in short, Lin Baoru opened his mouth and praised the two of them first.
When she said this, the sister-in-law of Qin showed a little sincerity. It's really not easy to say that the people in the second room of the Lin family are really like that, and the family is like that, and I still think about the friendship that my mother-in-law helped me with. Even those who take her as a daughter-in-law can be cared for in their hearts.
Thinking of this, Sister-in-law Qin patted Lin Baoru's hand and persuaded: "It's all from the same village, you can't see you when you look up, and you should help each other." Don't you dare to see the outside like this, so that people can't laugh at us after listening to it? ”
The three of them said a few more gossips, and Lin Baoru naturally picked a good one, but it made Lizheng's daughter-in-law and sister-in-law Qin feel useful and happy.
Finally, she took out the soap beans in the basket, and said with some shame: "I also made this object unintentionally, originally I wanted to follow my mother to try to buy and sell at the side of the stall selling firewood. I didn't expect it to be crooked, and it was a bit similar to the bath beans used by wealthy people...... If the sister-in-law and sister-in-law don't dislike it, they will leave two pieces to try, and if they are used well, I will send some later. ”
As early as on the way back, Lizheng's daughter-in-law smiled and asked Lin Baoru for soap beans, so when she took it out, Lizheng's daughter-in-law naturally didn't refuse.
"I've heard that how many people in the collection are rushing to buy you today. If you call me aunt, of course I can't let you scream in vain. Lizheng's daughter-in-law said, and took out ten cents in her sleeve pocket, "If we don't come to the void, my aunt will give you ten cents, don't be too little." ”
Compared with her daughter-in-law, Lizheng's daughter-in-law was very kind to her from the beginning.
In the past, she also felt that the Wang family was too child's play. How can a widow who has no support, with a few children who have not done anything, leave her husband's house? Even if you have some things in your hands, you can't stand the waste.
But now it seems that she is really overthinking. Not to mention that if you don't separate the family, I'm afraid that a few people in the second room will still suffer from sin. Just looking at the few members of the Lin family now, isn't that look like it used to be at all?
And his family's Baoru's bearing has also been practiced.
Thinking like this, she looked at Lin Baoru's expression even more pitiful.
How could Lin Baoru accept this money, she refused again and again and said: "Auntie, don't you dare to give money, this is also a self-made thing, and outsiders won't do it...... rare."
"It's also your blessing that you can find this business, how can your aunt be in vain. Hurry up and take it, don't make your aunt angry. Li Zheng's daughter-in-law was stunned as she spoke, and she stuffed the copper plate into Lin Baoru's hand.
When she sat on the rope again, she began to feel a little hopeful for Lin Baoru's family, "Alas, your mother is a stuffy gourd, she was so wronged in the past, but if you find the elders of the family, why bother to let the family suffer!" But now, it's kind of boiled out. ”
When she was in her mother's house, life was smooth. Later, he got married, although he was not a wealthy family, but he was also a decent and wealthy family. Therefore, Lizheng's daughter-in-law, who has never been offended, naturally can't look down on the Wang family with a few children living pitifully every day.
The person who was born in the Wang family likes to please the old mansion, and she doesn't interact with people in the village, which makes her look down on the Wang family a little.
Fortunately, she was confused as a mother, but she was lively when she gave birth to a girl. In this way, Lizheng's daughter-in-law couldn't help but nag a few more words.
Lin Baoru understood what she meant, and naturally responded with a stack of voices. It's just the copper plate, but she said that she didn't put it up at all.
"Sister Baoru, you can take it. My mother can't rub sand in her eyes, since she wants your soap beans, she won't take advantage of them in vain. Sister-in-law Qin smiled and took the soap beans and put them on the table in the house, and sat cross-legged on the kang.
It was originally a village, and everyone watched what the situation of whom's family was. In addition, my mother-in-law really didn't think about saving copper plates at this time, so my sister-in-law naturally had to echo my mother-in-law.
Their situation, if they dislike their mother-in-law for ten copper plates, it is not cost-effective.
Besides, she didn't pay the money, so Sister-in-law Qin was happy to be a good person.
Besides, at the end of the day, she's not the kind of person who doesn't take advantage of enough. Even if there are some philistines, it is not that they do not talk about favors at all. Now Lin Baoru said with a sister-in-law on the left and a grateful sentence on the right, she wants to pay back the care, but she doesn't seem to clean up.
Lin Baoru only smiled on the side: "This is a little bit of my family's heart, if you don't dislike it, you can't give money." Don't say I can't take it, even if I take the money, I'm afraid my mother will have to yell at me. ”
"You kid is too real-minded, don't you just say that your aunt forced it to you? Otherwise, let your mother come to me! Li Zheng's daughter-in-law knew that the days of the Lin family's second room were tense, and she said left and right, but she didn't want to get the object for nothing.
Lin Baoru saw that she was sincere, and she was very grateful. If there was still an element of acting before, then now she really shows her sincerity.
Seeing that she couldn't refuse, she simply took the copper plate, raised her hand and stuffed it under the kang quilt, and said with a smile: "Auntie, sister-in-law, you are really good for me, then I can't keep the copper plate." You also know the situation of my family, although my brother has improved, but he is a careless person in the end, my mother has soft ears and sometimes has no opinions, my sister and Xiaoshan are still young, if something happens in the future, I have to ask my aunt and sister-in-law to help me get an idea......" she said, and she became more and more embarrassed, "If you see me like this, then I won't dare to come to the door again in the future." ”
These words made Lizheng's daughter-in-law laugh out loud, "You are a ghost, dare to wait for your aunt here." You've said that, and I'm going to give you back the money, but it's ugly. ”
The sister-in-law on the side also echoed a few words, and the three of them were not cold. While he was talking, Li Zheng came back with a hanging of sun-dried pumpkin peels.
When he entered the house and saw Lin Baoru there, he said casually: "Here." ”
Lin Baoru nodded, looked at Li Zheng, who was pale and pale, and looked at Li Zheng's daughter-in-law in embarrassment, as if there was something difficult.
"Baoru, do you have something to tell your uncle?" Lizheng's daughter-in-law didn't play tricks, she was afraid that she would not dare to speak at her young age, so she simply asked directly.
Lin Baoru glanced at her gratefully, nodded and said, "I really have something I want to discuss with Uncle Lizheng." ”
She opened her mouth like this, but it was not easy for Li Zheng to go out again, so she simply dragged the bench and sat on the edge of the table.
"Uncle, aunt, you also know that after we split up, there will be no farmer. We have a place to live right now, but it's not mine. So I want to ask, is that piece of land from the village or from which household? Lin Baoru pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, and then said what she planned in her heart, "If it's from the village, I want to discuss with my uncle to see if I can buy it." If it's a household, I'm afraid I'll have to bother Uncle to think about it, see if I can get in touch and ask if they can sell ......it to us cheaply."
In a short period of time, it is difficult for them to find a suitable farmer and start a house from scratch. If you have enough money in your hand, it doesn't matter. But now, if they are kicked out again, their family is afraid that they will have to sleep in the wild.
This is also what Lin Baoru is most worried about after the scorer. After all, in the original memory, the memory of the family being kicked out of the old house in embarrassment is too deep.
