Chapter Eighty-Seven: Full of Confidence
Li Ting generously handed the mooncakes she brought back to her mother-in-law. Mrs. Fang took the moon cake in her hand and asked in her mouth: "You have been going for more than a month, how much salary have you been given?" ”
Excluding Fu Zhenyu's preference for himself and excluding his own craftsmanship, Li Ting said with an embarrassed face according to the "standard ability" of a folk woman: "They are all relatives, or relatives who are kind to me, they take care of our mother and daughter all day long, and give us new cloth to make clothes, I am not embarrassed to ask for wages." ”
"The richer the person, the more stingy they are!" Old Mrs. Fang complained, and turned her head to the other clan, "You have also seen that the two of them are wearing new clothes, big fish and meat, and they only suffer me, a poor man who has no family and no son, and lives on porridge and pickles." ”
Mrs. Fang's sister-in-law, the eldest lady of the Fang family pursed her lips and said, "Okay, don't pretend." In the past, when you didn't split up, when you really ate wotou pickles, you weren't as rich as you were here, and it was serious to set a stepchild earlier. ”
Say that the Fu family is not good, and I don't look at the same thing, the Fu family and the mother and mother eat ruddy, and follow you with yellow muscles and thin muscles, like a person who escapes the famine.
The patriarch was not happy to listen to Mrs. Fang crying poorly, so he directly pointed to a few children and said to Li Ting: "These four children are all children of the family who have not come out of the five suits, and they are all good. You two talk to them, and settle the person as soon as possible, so that I don't have to worry about it all day. ”
Although Li Ting has only been out for more than a month, she has been in contact with all the work of being the chief show girl, or even higher than the chief show girl, she also has spare money in hand, and she has a little confidence, and when she heard this, she said: "Succession is a big deal, how can I know if it is suitable or not for a woman?" If the patriarch had to choose me, I would still say that Xiao He would be fine, and the reason was also said, he sent Da Lang to the end. ”
For someone like Fang Dalang who died young, there were also children who served at the funeral, and it was Fang Fang's third cousin, that is, the second grandson of the eldest son of the eldest lady. Mrs. Lin gave Li Ting a move, anyway, the Fang family's family business and her mother can't get a few, so it doesn't matter who it is, it is best to block the old lady Fang's mother-in-law.
The one who is most willing to block the old lady in this world must be the big old lady. Li Ting is helping her talk at this time, the old lady is shrewd and shrewd, and she is better than her mother-in-law with a little face.
When the old lady heard this, she immediately answered alertly: "Isn't it? My Xiaohe has done a lot of work for her fourth uncle, and she hasn't given an explanation for so long. It's not an outsider, in terms of distant relatives, is there anything more suitable than Xiao He? ”
If you talk about intimacy, there are still several children in the big house, but only Xiaohe is three years older than Fang Fang, Fang Fang is married, and her mother's family still has a brother to help her. The other second and second sons are too young to help Shang Fang, so they only ask Fang Fang for help. If that's the case, Li Ting would rather her daughter have no heirs.
The patriarch also meant this, and the only one who disagreed was Old Lady Fang.
Mrs. Fang said at this time: "Xiao Fang's relatives are scholars, Xiao He is stupid, what is the material for reading?" ”
Hearing this, Fang Fang said: "Grandma is not right, my cousin said that there is no class to teach, as long as you learn, anyone can do it." ”
Everyone only thought that the cousin she said was Lin Jian, and the old lady immediately said: "That's it, what people read is right, what do you know when you open your eyes?" ”
This kung fu, Mrs. Fang waved her hand and directly slapped Fang Fang, the sound was shocking, this was not enough, the old lady still scolded in her mouth: "Losing money, which cheap goods teach you to talk more!" ”
Li Ting never thought that her mother-in-law would beat the child in public and hug her daughter-all of Li Yunzhen's words were in her mind.
"I think differently from others. What happened to you, I think, is your character. The kind of person you want your daughter to become, you have to become. Don't say that you have the ability to support yourself, but no, you are also a laundry farmer, so you are qualified to ask for a full meal! They are all men who are not self-reliant, waiting to starve to death or their daughters to be beaten to death? ”
At this moment, holding her trembling daughter, Li Ting finally fought back, and she said to the patriarch: "Patriarch, what my mother-in-law said is right, a woman's family can't talk much." Succession is originally a matter for men to have the final say, there is no male in my family for three generations, you are affected, just decide! I don't have a word about being a mother to my child. ”
Yes, according to the law, unless a man speaks, it is the mother of the child who is qualified to pick someone. On the contrary, Mrs. Fang can't do it horizontally, and she can't do it vertically, so she has dragged it out for several years.
Mrs. Fang also said: "No, hurry up and settle down, if you don't want my Xiaohe, you will settle the money." For such a thing, the concubine is not like the concubine, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law make trouble, and the husband and wife make trouble......"
The eldest old lady pointed out the filthy affairs of the four families present, the patriarch only knew that there was a disagreement between these families, but he didn't know that it was so serious, so he immediately ignored the old lady's scolding, gathered the clansmen, called the people of the Li family, and succeeded Fang He of the big house to the second room.
Li Ting thought about Li Yun's sentence "How many people who read books have face", so she succeeded Xiao He and said in public: "Everyone knows that many children on the other side of my relatives are studying now. My eldest nephew said that children who study will never suffer, although I don't have any great skills, I also want to send Xiaohe to private school. ”
As soon as these words came out, the other daughters-in-law of the big house were also sour.
Mrs. Fang jumped to her feet angrily, scolded and said: "I want to send you to do work for others, and I will not give you any money for my son!" ”
"I'll come out on my own! Xiao He's son, I raised it for Da Lang, and I also raised it for myself and Xiao Fang, no matter how tired I am, I won't suffer! Li Ting wept aggrievedly while stubbornly expressing her determination.
For the first time, the eldest lady felt that it was right for her step-grandson to pass by.
At this time, I heard Li Ting say: "Auntie, sister-in-law, my mother-in-law, you also know, my granddaughter is ruthless." I'm afraid that Xiao He will also be innocently beaten, you and your sister-in-law will be affected, so take the child for a few days. Wait for me to go to my eldest sister to borrow money, and then ask them to help me run around Fujiatang and send Xiaohe to study, do you think? ”
"Spanking a child?"
Many people didn't know what was going on and started talking about it. What kind of person is the big old lady, if you have nothing to do, you have to press the old lady Fang for three points, and it is now an opportunity to hack her, while scolding the old lady Fang, she started beating her husband when she entered the door, and the old lady Fang fainted angrily.
Seeing all this, Fang Fang, who was slapped by her grandmother again, was like a panicked deer, hugged Li Ting tightly and begged in a low voice: "Mother, shall we go back to the academy?" ”
Li Ting comforted her daughter: "No one in the academy cooks for us at this time, my mother will take you to your aunt's house, find Brother Bufeng, and go to see your sister-in-law, okay?" ”
How can Lin Jian have Fu Zhenyu to coax children? But the Lin family is always ten thousand times better than the Fang family, Fang Fang nodded. Li Ting took Fang Fang to Linjiazhuang in the name of borrowing money and arranging people.
Li Ting looked at the eldest sister apologetically, and said to the Lin family: "I'm causing trouble for everyone again." ”
Seeing Fang Fang's swollen face, what else did the Lin family not understand? Mrs. Lin didn't say much, but said, "Now that you're here, don't think about those bad people, and have a good holiday." Xiao Yu's girl is more sensible than her mother, and the Mid-Autumn Festival of the Fu family is so rich for the first time. I can still put it when I wear it, and I am worried about how to eat this cart of food, but coincidentally, you are here. ”
are also mothers-in-law, why is the gap so big? Li Ting was extremely sad.
