Chapter 4 Ancient Father-in-law
The atmosphere was very low for a while.
Qian Peiying glanced at her husband, which means that you should say that you don't care about your daughter, you will be fine in a while, and besides, you are not really thirteen years old.
Father Song complained a little that he was not calm just now, and he was out of energy with his daughter.
glanced at his daughter, and understood in his heart: it is useless to persuade each other to talk.
He rubbed his face with both hands, cheered up and said to his wife:
"Peiying, in fact, your ancient father is also interesting enough to us.
Mr. Qian was born to sell goods from the south to the north, and his young head was pinned to the waistband of his trousers. Later, I don't know where to get the secret recipe for winemaking, and the wine is good, so I stabilized and opened a liquor shop in the county.
The old man only had a son and a daughter for the rest of his life. Daughter-in-law, you are the eldest, and there is a younger brother below, and your mother didn't have it when your brother was ten years old, you have to remember this.
Didn't I say it first, my life is good because I married you.
When the two of us first got married, we lived with a large family in the countryside, and your father, who was in this body, was afraid that you would be tired in the field, and every time he was busy farming, he hired people to work in Dajing Village out of his own pocket, and I didn't have to work if I got it.
When you give birth to our daughter, the old doctor says that you have injured your body enough to regenerate, and the old man will be even more worried.
First of all, I didn't fall off the list after watching the exam, so I walked around in the county to give me a job, responsible for enlightening Mengtong, so that we could stay away from the countryside, for fear that my old son would grind you.
Then the house was prepared for us, even if we live in this house now, it was also given by the old man for nothing.
When it comes to the house, this is the third stage of the old man's life.
Because the wine business is too good, the old man has to go to Fucheng to develop, so he took your brother's family and moved out of the county seat.
After he left, the distance between the city and the county was too far to always come back, and he didn't worry about the two of you, of course, he was also afraid that the money I earned would be too small, and he would be mean to you, so he decided to put the wine shop in the county under your daughter-in-law's name.
Do you understand? It is equivalent to not only giving our house for nothing, but also giving a deal for nothing.
Therefore, he broke his heart for you, and gave his daughter and son-in-law a house for nothing, and he couldn't show it to the outside world, on the one hand, he was worried that it would affect my examination for Xiucai, an ancient Shinong businessman.
Second, I am afraid that I will be too careful. If I am ridiculed as a son-in-law, I can't go home to find fault with my daughter-in-law without face? He covered up the matter of giving us to our shop for free, and sent a cow shopkeeper from the old man.
This Uncle Niu is an old brother, I don't know why he didn't have a family, he has been in charge of our wine shop, and he also lives in the store.
The shop is on the right turn West Street when our house goes out, and the old bull head will deliver the profit silver to our house on time on the first day of each month. In other words, we don't have to take care of the store, and we still get silver for nothing. ”
Speaking of silver, Father Song paused, remembering the inducement for the three of them to wear to ancient times.
He looked at his wife and frowned:
"Peiying, there is another matter here, we have a wine store and money coming in every month, except for my father-in-law, my widow, and two brothers, even my eldest sister doesn't know, no one knows the details at all.
In the past, didn't I just say that I took the money and sent it to the countryside to let the old lady add one or two acres of land every year, and said that it was earned by copying books and teaching, so why did we let the thieves worry about it? How does the thief know? ”
Qian Peiying sneered: "Don't you still have two sisters-in-law?" Can your two brothers talk to their daughter-in-law without closing the door? If you have a big, you can go home and talk to me. Don't those two sisters-in-law still have their mother's home? Don't you still have sisters-in-law in your mother's house? In this world, as long as you tell a person, it is not called a secret. ”
"You mean to say that acquaintances commit crimes?" After asking, Song Fusheng didn't wait for an answer, he nodded first: "Well, it makes sense, it's easy to steal from our family, just the three of us, we have a good chance of success." Then we really have to study who it is, and guard against it in the future. ”
Speaking of which, Qian Peiying also asked by the way: "By the way, my daughter and I were stunned, where did you go, your head injury was not only for the fall, but the injury in your scalp was with them?" ”
"What a move!"
Song Fusheng disliked the original owner very much in his heart, and he hated his own body, except for saying that he was insulting, he studied every day to take advantage of his father-in-law's family, and he didn't do anything.
In my memory, the original owner kowtowed to the old gentleman who taught him to be admitted to the Tongsheng last night, and the old gentleman died, and he knelt in the early hours of the morning to be a filial son and grandson, so he hid in the incense.
Of course, it's useless even at home.
Because in my memory, when the original owner came back, he happened to touch the thief on his head, and then squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, not daring to look at others. It is estimated that the thief didn't expect him to be so bearish, and he looked down on him very much, so he gave him a stick before leaving.
"Well, I wasn't at home, and when I came back, I found that the place where the money was hidden was emptied, and I was distressed, so I hurriedly ran to the county master's house to report to the official.
probably felt that he was a child, awesome, and the official master could also give some face to go to the police quickly, but no one saw it, saying that the county master was not in the county office, and he had left the city early with the messenger.
At the beginning, I said that the woman who served medicine like Pan Jinlian was the maid of the county master's family. ”
Qian Peiying didn't understand the voiceover clearly, but Song Fuling, who only listened to it with one ear, understood: "Oh, I'll go, Dad, thanks to you coming with me, I changed the core for his soul." At this critical moment, a man who only looks at the money and does not look at his wife and daughter is really not very good."
Qian Peiying nodded perfunctorily, still not very interested in these ancient people and things: "A few people in the family have also been cleared up, let's cook and eat first, and talk while eating." ”
After saying that, she took the lead in getting up and went to the outhouse stove.
Song Fuling picked up the door frame and asked, "Mom, didn't the thief steal the rice, flour, grain and oil, right?" ”
"No", Qian Peiying pursed her lips when she looked at the grain bag, and her heart rippled a little, and she was no longer as indifferent as just now.
Why, because even if she doesn't remember, even if she doesn't understand everything in ancient times, she understands that in these years, she can have flour and rice at home, and life is really okay. You must know that not to mention ancient times, even in the modern seventies and eighties, there were many people who could not eat these.
And her husband's next few brief words made Qian Peiying's eyes sour all of a sudden.
"My body is a child, and you and I can't eat this. It's the old man who is afraid that your daughter-in-law will not be willing to eat and drink, so every month he asks the cattle shopkeeper not only to send money, but also to buy 50 catties of white flour, 20 catties of rice, and a jar of oil. From the day he moved to Fucheng, it has always been like this, no matter how hard the price of grain rises, the fine flour has not been broken. ”
Qian Peiying paused as she bent down to scoop rice, and said in a nasal voice: "I will treat him as my own father, let's be kind to him in the future." ”
Song Fuling heard that the voice was wrong, and cautiously leaned over: "Mom, why are you crying again." ”
Qian Peiying was busy wiping her tears with her sleeve, but she didn't answer, and she didn't know how to answer.
The more tears I wiped, the more I wiped them.
She just misses her long-dead parents and her father at the moment.
My father is the same as this ancient father, how can he be good to his uncle as his husband said, how can he have eye sockets without eyeballs.
They are being good to their daughter, and they are good with all their hearts. Before getting married, I thought that she was cold, hot, and hungry, and after she got married, she was worried that she would be wronged and didn't tell her family.
