Chapter 12: Bringing up the Wife Again

When he returned to Houfu, it was already night, Wen Qiao turned to the way back to his room, suddenly remembered something, turned around and walked towards Mrs. Cheng's courtyard.

Mrs. Cheng was sitting in the room embroidering, and when she saw Wen Qiao coming in, she happily put down the work at hand.

"Qiao'er is back? Have you found today's goods? Mrs. Cheng looked at him with a smile, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that her son was excellent.

Wen Qiao was tired, but he still nodded seriously: "It's been found, mother doesn't have to worry." ”

"That's good, you haven't eaten yet, have you? I will ask someone to make you something to eat. Mrs. Cheng said as she prepared to go out and call someone.

Grabbing Mrs. Cheng, Wen Qiao said, "Mother, I went to Zhuangzi today, and I also saw their women's lives. ”

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, maybe he wouldn't have believed it, and he didn't think that they even relied on robbery for food.

Mrs. Cheng's body stiffened, and the smile on her face suddenly became a little unnatural.

Stopping, Mrs. Cheng turned around and smiled: "Are they doing well?" Why didn't you bring Chen'er back? I've been thinking about him a lot lately. ”

Wen Qiao turned around, stared at Mrs. Cheng's eyes seriously, and said word by word: "Mother will give them the silver on time in the future, it will not be easy for the two of them." ”

Although she had expected Wen Qiao to find out about this, she was still a little angry when it really came to this time.

Usually this son is very obedient, why is he talking to her like this because of a woman?

couldn't hold it on her face, and Mrs. Cheng's face was not very good-looking: "Did they say something to you?" I knew she was going to tell you. ”

Wen Qiao shook his head with a headache, and discussed with Mrs. Cheng calmly: "They didn't say anything to me, these are what I saw, Chen'er is your grandson after all, can I send them silver on time in the future?" ”

With his mother on one side and his son on the other, Wen Qiao felt his head hurt more and more.

The mother and son looked at each other for a while, but neither of them would back down, and I don't know how long it took for Mrs. Cheng to finally compromise.

"Okay, just promise you, I will never treat their mother and son badly in the future, now you should rest assured, right?" Mrs. Cheng sat on the bench with a butt and her face was not very good-looking.

Wen Qiao nodded, his face softened a little, and he said down her heart: "I know that my mother actually feels very sorry for Chen'er, but I just don't say it." ”

No matter what she thought in her heart, Mrs. Cheng was still amused by his words and couldn't get angry.

After laughing, Mrs. Cheng took Wen Qiao's hand and said in a serious voice: "Son, you are also the eldest child, how did you think about the matter that my mother told you before?" ”

Which thing? Wen Qiao was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted, referring to what she usually told him about marrying a flat wife.

He was not interested in this matter, so naturally he didn't think about it, and when Mrs. Cheng asked him, he couldn't say it directly.

Fifty lowered his head and picked up the teacup on the table and played with it, pretending not to hear.

"You wouldn't have thought about it again, would you?" Mrs. Cheng guessed a rough idea when she looked at him, and looked at him angrily.

Wen Qiao looked up at her and said with a smile: "My son is busy like this, where does he have time to think about it?" ”

Sure enough, after hearing his answer, the smile on Mrs. Cheng's face disappeared, and was replaced by hatred of iron and steel.

"Son, this is the event of your life, how can you not think about it? How many times has my mother told you? Why don't you take it to heart? "Mrs. Cheng is angry, her daughter-in-law won't just be gone, right?

Wen Qiao looked at her with a smile and said, "This kind of thing is about fate, so don't worry about mother." ”

After speaking, Wen Qiao got up and was about to leave.

He dared to guarantee that if he didn't leave now, I'm afraid that her mother would be able to repeat it eight hundred times again.

For the sake of his ears, it's better to leave earlier.

Mrs. Cheng saw through his intentions the moment he got up, and quickly reached out and grabbed his sleeve: "Don't leave yet, if you don't give me an answer today, don't want to leave." ”

Usually she just gave him advice, never really forced him, I thought he understood her hard work, but now it seems that he can't expect him to figure it out on his own.

It seems that she still went out to force him to work.

Wen Qiao couldn't shake off his hands and leave, so he had to look back at her helplessly: "Mother, I'm tired enough to work all day today, okay for another day?" ”

Originally, Mrs. Cheng was angry because of Zhuangzi's affairs, but now Wen Qiao has not listened to her, and Mrs. Cheng is determined not to back down.

Mrs. Cheng shook her head and didn't look at Wen Qiao's face: "You have to give me an answer no matter what you want today, otherwise it's something to drag on." ”

Her attitude was very firm, which was equivalent to saying that if Wen Qiao didn't agree to her, don't think about leaving today.

Looking at the serious Mrs. Cheng, Wen Qiao sighed almost inaudibly, and said helplessly: "I really don't have the heart to think about other things now, if this matter is concerned, my mother will look at it." ”

He is a little tired now, and wants to go back to rest, if he doesn't say so, I'm afraid he won't be able to get out.

Mrs. Cheng finally waited for him to relax, and her face was happy, "If you had understood my mother's hard work, why would you have to wait until today?" ”

"I saw a lot of girls around us, and Ming'er Niang asked them to come to the house to sit, and you can see if there is a match." Mrs. Cheng happily thought about how to do this.

I didn't hear Wen Qiao's answer for a long time, and looked back at him with some dissatisfaction.

But when she looked back, where was there a second person in the room besides her? Wen Qiao didn't know when he left for a long time.

The anger in Mrs. Cheng's stomach swelled up, and she was about to go crazy, when she suddenly thought that Wen Qiao had promised to hand over the affairs of his wife to her, and she instantly laughed again.

Now her son is just free and unfettered, and when he marries a wife and has children, it will not be like this.

Finally got the answer she wanted, Mrs. Cheng was happy for a night, and woke up early the next morning.

The first thing she did when she got up was to call the servants at home to clean up the waiting house, and today she was going to invite the young ladies from the neighborhood to come to the house as guests.

It is rare to have a banquet at home, and the servants are also happy, and they clean up the house with their hands and feet, and prepare food and everything very well.

Before noon, many young and beautiful young ladies came to Houfu one after another, all of whom were the daughters of local people with heads and faces.

Mrs. Cheng looked at her flower-like faces and closed her mouth happily.

Near noon, Wen Qiao still didn't see Wen Qiao's figure, Mrs. Cheng was a little anxious, and sent someone to look for him in his yard, and at the same time didn't forget to say that he wouldn't come out at a critical time.

Although those daughters were also a little strange, out of cultivation, none of them took the initiative to inquire about the situation.

Xiao Si, who went to invite Wen Qiao, ran back after a short time, ran to Mrs. Cheng out of breath, and said in a low voice: "Madam is not good, the prince is not in the waiting house." ”

"Where did he go?" Mrs. Cheng's face changed slightly.

"I heard it was out." Xiao Si was a little frightened, and lowered his voice a little lower.
