Chapter 075: A little bribe
Liu's cousin's name is Gui Muxiang, Jiang Yu's cousin.
When Aunt Cousin came that day, she smiled and was enthusiastic and familiar, and after saying that Liu was a sister, she turned her head and took Jiang Yu's hand to look left and right, all of them were happy, and their faces did not violate the harmony. The little sister, who disdains anyone, immediately became disgusted.
But it was Liu, knowing that her cousin was here to stammer, and she deliberately raised her chin very high, as if she had taken the lead, she made the appearance of the owner complete, and invited Fang Chuan over.
The purpose of inviting Fang Chuan to come, not for anything else, is because Liu thinks that this future son-in-law will never come empty-handed, it is either meat or fish, and he will be able to carry some things, even if he wants to cook and cook, he will also use the son-in-law's things, and Liu is comfortable. In short, he is here to support his face, contribute, and run errands.
At the end, a few people sat together, eating the meat brought by Fang Chuan, drinking the wine brought by Fang Chuan, chatting freely, and the atmosphere was peaceful and joyful. However, when Aunt Zai's cousin talked about why she didn't see his daughter-in-law, Liu narrowed her mouth slightly.
What's even more funny, this cousin aunt actually thought that Chu Jianniang was Jiang Feng's daughter-in-law.
After the meal, my cousin and aunt pulled Liu and said, "Good sister, didn't I say that this daughter-in-law is not at home all day, and you don't care about it?" Look at how long I've been at your house, but you're all busy, and you haven't seen her, so we haven't been able to say a few words. ”
Liu smiled and skipped asking Chu Jianniang's words, and said kindly: "Isn't this what you said?" ”
"It's almost dark this day, and you can still say something heartfelt!" My cousin and aunt were all displeased, and she said as if her own daughter-in-law would never return.
Liu Shi looked at it, and after thinking about her cousin's temperament, he explained: "My daughter-in-law here is busy working outside to make money, and she goes out early and returns late every day, and she doesn't know how busy she is (she obviously knows), but for the sake of the family, she still follows her." ”
The cousin's aunt's face was closed, and she gave this daughter-in-law an undesirable look, "What kind of work does a woman do when she goes out?" Without her to make money, this family can't survive? ”
"You can't say that, it's good to earn money for the family......"
"Who really earns money for the family? Don't let her go outside and hook up the man and do something else! You are a mother-in-law, you still don't understand such things, can you still allow it? ”
And that's right...... Liu was really taken aback.
Old man Wei was still on the side, his face suddenly turned ugly, and he scolded in his heart: Where did a vulgar woman come from, instigating some!
The hall coughed violently.
Fang Chuan was in the lower hall, coughing, picking up the teacup, and sipping the tea without making a sound.
Jiang Yu didn't like this cousin who came to the door at first, although the words were not good, but it was not her, and she only glanced at it and didn't bother to pay attention to it. Then he got up and pulled Fang Chuan out.
Seeing that the old man's face changed, Liu was afraid that he would not be able to accept his words too much, so he hurriedly protected the calf in front of him and said embarrassedly: "Cousin, this is far away, my daughter-in-law, is the most obedient and filial, she is a simple person, and she will never do anything wrong, how can she be blind outside?" This is to see that there is no one in the family to take care of, and it is hard to stand up alone. ”
My cousin didn't believe it.
This cousin is used to fighting with her daughter-in-law, and when she sees Liu's protecting her daughter-in-law like this, she feels that this mother-in-law is a bit of a wreck. In the eyes of my cousin, there is no harmonious mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the world.
I thought about Liu's appearance, all of them saw that the master of the family was there, and I just said this to her intentionally, I must have been pressed by my daughter-in-law and couldn't breathe!
At the end, my cousin said very knowingly: "You, you! When I was young, I felt that you had a good temper, and these decades have passed, and in the end it is still this style. Look at this daughter-in-law is still new, she can do whatever she wants, if you don't take some of the posture of being a mother-in-law, you will have your good fruit to eat in the future! ”
"Ahem..." Liu raised his hand to wipe his forehead, deliberately blocking Old Man Wei's eyes.
Speaking of which, the Liu family wants to manage this daughter-in-law more than anyone else, but if she can really manage it, after all, she is not her own son's daughter-in-law!
Aunt Cousin didn't care about Old Man Wei, and some of her words were specially said to Old Man Wei. Talking about her personal experience, she said that her daughter-in-law can't be spoiled and protected like a daughter, but if people are spoiled and protected, she looks docile and obedient now, and her wings will be hardened in the future, and she will be able to turn against the sky.
Old man Wei has never been like a woman's opinion, he wants to scold people when he hears it, he is really a good teacher!
Liu was hindered by Old Man Wei, and it was inconvenient to answer some words, so he was embarrassed to protect the calf. Listening to the words that he was going to beat his daughter-in-law, Liu hurriedly interrupted and said that he would send his cousin, so he pulled his cousin and aunt to get up and send off the guest.
However, on the way to see off the guests, Aunt Cousin pulled Liu for a long time and said.
My cousin and aunt boasted that she understood the difficulty of being a mother-in-law, and she also boasted that she understood that the Liu family was pressed in the Wei family, after all, she was a continuation of the strings, so she could only swallow her anger.
However, although Liu was perfunctory and obedient, pretending to be as she said, he actually had some crooked thoughts in his heart.
Liu thought about it before, when was she not chewed the root of her tongue behind her back, saying that how did she, the stepmother, do not do it right, how did she do it badly? She has nothing to do with her face, after all, she didn't listen to it in person, so she didn't care.
Now I heard everyone outside say that she was Chu Jiaoniang's good, but I didn't hear anything bad about it, and I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. If you want to say that she is pressed by her daughter-in-law, she is really pressed by this woman.
When he heard that his cousin was so jealous of his daughter-in-law in the world, Liu touched his heart, so he followed some of his cousin's words, and began to look forward to Ai Ai, knocking on the side, and sighing.
"Cousin, don't you know, my daughter-in-law is the most assertive, and she can't control teaching people, didn't you see what you said just now, and taught my old man to give a face? I can't say it, I can't say it! ”
"It's against her! If you are a daughter-in-law, even if you are protected by your father-in-law, you can't say that you are a mother-in-law? You are also the elder of the family, the head of the house, I have never seen a daughter-in-law who is not at home all day long, which really makes her set the score! ”
"Whew! So my cousin can know the pain in my heart. Liu frowned, shook his head helplessly, and deliberately swallowed some bitter fruit into his stomach, as if he had suffered a great sin.
My cousin and aunt are used to being barbaric at home, and they are most unaccustomed to seeing this kind of daughter-in-law bullying her mother-in-law, "Let's just say that you have a soft personality!" How can you be so! But you're going to me off! This is going to be my daughter-in-law, if she dares to do this, I will give her two ears to the past, and she can still give her face? ”
Speaking of my cousin's daughter-in-law, she was a mute, and my cousin relied on her daughter-in-law to be mute, and no one quarreled with her, so she said that she was so powerful.
Liu continued to look poignant, and almost wiped away his tears: "What can I do?" It's all a family, and life is all to live. ”
My cousin was so angry that she shook her head again and again, and she was in a straight way.
Liu wanted to cry and stopped, but he stopped talking.
The appearance of a good mother-in-law who was wronged and bitter, Liu pretended. With my cousin's aunt, seeing the wind is rain, seeing that the daughter-in-law in the world is not very good, and loving her mother-in-law and mother-in-law's temperament. After seeing her bullied appearance today, I will definitely be able to spread some words.
In private, Liu secretly smiled a lot: If you want to come to Chu Jianniang's reputation as a good daughter-in-law, it will not be much better.
So, within two days, the words about Chu Jianniang being the daughter-in-law of the Wei family, and her father-in-law loved her, so she suppressed the Liu family, making the Liu family depressed and unhappy, and she was so angry that she couldn't eat.
It is precisely because these words have been passed on that Chu Jianniang has to slap the Liu family first and make a small bribe.
This time, without waiting for Liu to speak, Chu Jianniang took out the money she earned from her waist pocket, "Mother, this is what I have earned in the past month or so, not much, one or two or three dollars, take it for you." Counting the days, the little sister will have to get married, and we have to get ready. ”
Liu Shi lowered his eyes and looked at the broken silver in her hand, for a while. Needless to say, that's a lot less than the last time.
Chu Jianniang saw through it at a glance and said: "Mother, you are too little, the five taels last time were saved by the daughter-in-law for several months, and they were all given to you." At this time, I have been doing fine work for nearly half a month, and some of the money I earn from selling firewood will also be given to you. These days, I am working outside, and you need to worry about the affairs of the family, and it is also hard for you. ”
Chu Jianniang deliberately said that she was hard, and spared no effort to sell herself miserably, and at the same time, she felt sorry for Liu's "work" at home, and helped her take on the work at home, and she was very grateful.
Liu only said in his heart: It's really a roundworm in her stomach. Then he deliberately put up his hard-working shelf, and his posture was quite high.
However, whether the Liu family has been working at home during this period of time, Old Man Wei can see it.
Right now, Old Man Wei saw that his daughter-in-law was working hard to find a little self-esteem outside, and because of Liu's behavior, he had to send it to her, and he felt a little distressed.
So he coughed coldly and interrupted: "Your mother doesn't have much money at home, it's just that she has to use some of the dowry for Yu'er in the near future." You have already given it last time, and you have given me some, plus my aunt has made up a lot of subsidies, but the dowry is enough, and you can take the money yourself. Your mother is still rare, and your daughter-in-law can't make this money? ”
Liu Shifang's hand that wanted to stretch out suddenly stiffened, and he bumped into the eyes of Old Man Wei who pulled it over.
The old man spoke, Chu Jianniang was surprised, but the old man's words were intercepted, especially the last sentence. What does this make Liu's take? Or don't take it?
