Chapter 275: A Conversation
Seeing Xu's exclamation, Tan Jushi said lightly:
"It's good here."
"But..."
Xu Shi looked at the chair he sat on, and laid a simple cushion, this chair was still worn out, and it could be seen that it was something that was some years old. It is said that the Kou family has not been less than the Xu family's monthly silver, and when the family pays dividends at the end of the year every year, what should be given to the big house is also given. Didn't the Tan family give all this money to his mother's family?
Xu had some thoughts in his heart, but he didn't say it, Mrs. Murong stepped forward and saluted her sister-in-law:
"Sister-in-law."
Tan Jushi saw that Kou Baoyu was a little better, and said with a somewhat gentle face:
"Little sister is here, sit down."
Back then, she married into the Kou family, and before she had time to get along with this little sister, she became a widow.
Everything about the Kou family seems to be a little far away from himself. I locked myself up and couldn't go back to the past. Kou's house is her mother-in-law's house, and her mother-in-law's house is a place where she will stay for the rest of her life in the future, but it is still unfamiliar to a new daughter-in-law.
I just left my mother's house, but I became a widow at the side of my mother-in-law's house, so for Tan Jushi at that time, I didn't seem to have a sense of belonging and didn't know where my home was.
Simply, I entered the Buddhist hall, where I found a little comfort in my soul, and I also had a feeling of belonging that I could regard.
All these years have lived in the Buddhist hall, at first in the capital at home, made a Buddhist hall by herself, but because her family often came to see her under the pretext of concern, she didn't want to mention some old things again, so she went back to Mrs. Kou directly, and then went to a nunnery in the capital to lead the practice.
However, when I heard such and such things next, the Kou family still cared about her as always, and others always said that her life was hard or something, and some people came to worship the Buddha in the nunnery, and they also used themselves as a negative teaching material to tell their daughter. This was heard by the Tan family. I decided right now to move to a place far away where no one knew me.
When she came to this Yuyuan Nunnery, a nun in the original nunnery helped her contact her. And then she came to live here. Anyway, she didn't look at the moon silver sent by the Kou family every month, and Mu Jin took care of it and handed over a part of it to the nunnery, and the rest, sometimes buy something that is necessary for life.
Only Mu Jin has been following her, and she has sent everyone else. The people on her mother's side have not come to recognize her since she entered the nunnery. She was very indifferent to them.
In the past, when she was in the nunnery in the capital, Mrs. Kou would definitely come to the nunnery on the fifteenth day of the new year to offer incense, so she came to see her. Send her something. Now that I'm here, Mrs. Kou is also getting old, so I haven't come to see her again, but every Sanguan New Year's Festival or something, people will come to see her and send her something.
It's because Kou Ziyu has been told to pass on to her since she was a child, so Mrs. Kou often took the child to see her since she was a child, and she slowly became familiar with the child, until the child learned martial arts, and she would come to see her, but occasionally she was a little naughty, but it made people a little worried.
Therefore, the last time Ziyu said that she had fallen in love with a girl and wanted to ask her to come forward to help her get married, she went happily.
Actually, before going, she inquired that although this merchant is not a good match with the Kou family, this business girl is a good woman.
And Ziyu said that he really likes this girl. So she also went to Mrs. Shang, and according to what Ziyu said, she treated each other with courtesy and made this appointment.
At that time, she also thought that the Kou family might not be willing, but as Ziyu said:
"If they don't want to, they don't want to, I'm your son now, I really think this girl is very good. I love it too! ”
For the sake of this child, I like it very much, so Tan Jushi went to order his parents.
Seeing Mrs. Kou Xu coming today, Tan Jushi knew what it was for, it must be because of the child's marriage.
After welcoming the person into the room and sitting down, he looked at Xu Shi and shrank his hand. Tan Jushi gently pulled the corners of his mouth, this is a person from a rich and noble family, and it is colder in Shandong.
Tan Jushi called Mu Jin and asked her to light the charcoal basin. Usually, Tan Jushi is not very accustomed to using a charcoal basin, she always feels that a little colder will make people feel a little sober.
After sitting down, Mrs. Kou said:
"Sister-in-law, I only found out a few days ago that Ziyu was engaged. We hadn't heard anything about it before. I'd like to ask what's going on? ”
Tan Jushi Wei Yi Han first said:
"There is such a thing, the child came to me for two days, let me go to help him propose, I inquired, the merchant's reputation in this Baiyuan City is also very good, the merchant's family style is also okay, and the merchant girl is a capable girl. So, I went to mention this pro. The capital is far away, so I didn't report this happy event to the old people. Ziyu said that he would go back and talk about it. I don't know if he said it or not. ”
Tan's words made Xu angry. Listen to what people say, first, this matter, is the child's eye, I am also responsible to inquire, the person is not bad, the family voice is also good, so it was ordered.
Second, in this matter, although you are the biological mother, but the child is now my child, I don't need to inform you, the child's grandparents are here, I should say it, but it is far away, and I can't go as a woman. The child said that he would go back and say, but he didn't say it, it was the child's business.
In a word, this pro is decided, and you have no right to hold me accountable! I should have said it, and I should have said it to the two old men.
Naturally, such words made Xu feel how angry he was when he heard it. But there is no way, I am small, although I am now Mrs. Hou, but that person doesn't want it.
But the son is his own! Gritting his teeth, he swallowed the tears in his stomach, and shook his hand hard, and his nails reached his palm. Xu Shi still said calmly:
"But sister-in-law, you may have been away from Beijing for too long. Now the capital is all about getting the right door. You said that our family is also Houmen, and Zilang's wife is also the eldest daughter of Shangshu. can't let Ziyu's wife lower her too much, how will they get along with each other in the future? ”
"What's so bad about that? They will divide their families from now on, and each will live his own life. ”
Xu Shi was obviously a little angry, and then said:
"Sister-in-law, you don't want to think about Ziyu's future development. Zilang inherited the throne, and even if Ziyu became a family in the future, he would have to be the head of a family. Now that he is young, he has earned fame in the border city, and he still has to go back to the capital to live in the future, you said yes, without the support of a strong mother's family, how will he live in the capital in the future? ”
