Chapter 65: Stupid Mrs. Ye
Seeing that the Zhuang family finally held back her tears, Mrs. Ye breathed a sigh of relief and secretly regretted that she had mentioned Zhong Deping earlier. If Zhuang kept crying, she wouldn't be able to say anything about her marriage again, and her son was still waiting for her in the hall in the front yard.
"Sister, you are blessed, your children can do it, I saw a famous child just now, I haven't seen you for half a year, but you have grown a lot taller, like an adult."
Hearing Mrs. Ye mention her son, Zhuang's mind became much brighter, and he sighed: "He was also forced to have no choice, and he didn't read anymore, and followed his sister to manage the affairs of the tea house, and he was busy all day long." ”
"How many children, even if they are forced, can't do anything, the name is good, at a young age, they manage the tea house so well, and sell this year's pre-rain tea at the highest price in the county. Now who in the county doesn't praise him for his ability? "Mrs. Ye was able to manage the family's business when she was young, and she was also a person, she was interested in Zhong Lingyu in her heart, but she praised Zhong Ling's name vigorously.
What mother doesn't want to hear others praise her children? Zhuang was praised by her for being comfortable, a smile appeared on his face, but he said modestly: "He is just doing a favor and learning from him." Most of the things are still done by Yu'er and the shopkeeper. ”
Seeing that the topic had shifted to Zhong Lingyu, Mrs. Ye was in the middle of it, and hurriedly echoed: "Isn't that exactly what I said, my sister is a blessed person?" The son is so capable, and the daughter is even more capable. At such a young age, and a girl's family, she is even stronger than those old and young masters in the county who have studied for many years and are a lot older, and have developed a new recipe for roasting tea, but no one has ever done it except for Master Onishi. My sister can have this pair of children, what is there to be uncomfortable about? If it were me, I would have to wake up laughing in the middle of the night. ”
Zhong Deping never told Zhuang about things outside, and Zhuang himself didn't care much about it, and never sent anyone to inquire. Zhong Lingyu was afraid that the Zhuang family would be suspicious, and she was worried that others would use the Zhuang family to deal with her and provoke the relationship between mother and daughter, so she let Granny Lu reveal it to the Zhuang family as early as possible, and brainwashed the Zhuang family through Grandma Lu's mouth, telling her that the fried tea recipe was thought up by Zhong Lingyu herself, and that she could share it with her two younger brothers, which was her great kindness to her younger brother and the Zhong family; If she doesn't share, that's her duty. After all, this is not the original thing of the Zhong family, so naturally it should be up to her.
Zhuang's family is deeply influenced by feudal etiquette, and attaches the most importance to morality and righteousness, and cannot reach out for things that are not his own, and must abide by his duty and not be greedy, such thoughts are engraved into his bones; And she has no idea, and when she heard Granny Lu say this, she also thought so.
Therefore, when she heard Mrs. Ye's words, she only smiled faintly: "That's just Yu'er's temporary luck, it's nothing." ”
"It can be seen that Yu'er is a person of good luck." Mrs. Ye said.
She paved the way for so long, and felt that it was time, so she put a smile on her face, glanced at Zhong Lingyu with a blaming gaze, and said to the Zhuang family: "Originally, I didn't want to come on this trip today, but my Qing'er begged me to come." ”
She didn't say any more, but straightened her clothes, sat up straight, and took another sip of tea from her teacup.
Although Zhuang has a weak temperament, he is not a particularly stupid person, why can't he hear that Mrs. Ye is going to get to the point? And listening to the meaning of this, it seems that he is coming for Zhong Lingyu's relatives. She couldn't help but glance at her daughter, and then looked at Mrs. Ye, waiting for her to say what was going on.
Mrs. Ye originally wanted to pretend to attract Zhuang and Zhong Lingyu to show eager expressions, and this matter was easy to talk about. Zhong Lingyu didn't move like the wind, and only glanced at her with those ink-jade-like eyes with a smile; Although Zhuang's face was puzzled, it had nothing to do with the word eagerness. She knew that her plan had failed.
Mrs. Ye had no choice but to put down the teacup, coughed lightly, wiped her lips with a handkerchief, and continued: "Your family Yu'er, it was too unpleasant to talk before, running up the mountain all day long, and often going to the teahouse, not to men, whether it is on the mountain or the teahouse, it is all used by men, she is always like this for a girl, don't you want to be gossiped about?" That's why I sent Qing'er's distant sister-in-law to warn her, but what did she do? He uttered evil words and drove them out. I remember that she was young, and she had recently lost her father, and she was in a bad mood. found another opportunity to ask her to go to the teahouse to talk, trying to persuade her. The result? She choked me so much that she didn't have me as a future mother-in-law in her eyes at all, and there was a lot of disrespect in her words. ”
When it came to the back, she still seemed to be very angry, her expression was stern, and her gaze at Zhong Lingyu was as sharp as a knife.
She originally wanted to give Zhong Lingyu some coercion, so that Zhong Lingyu was honestly afraid, and she would be more in awe of her mother-in-law in the future, but she didn't want Zhong Lingyu's eyes to look straight at her, the two looked at each other, Zhong Lingyu didn't have a trace of panic or shame on her face, she was still so smiling, her eyes were so bright that she seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, reflecting the darkness in Mrs. Ye's heart.
Over there, as soon as Zhuang heard Mrs. Li's words, he immediately stopped doing it. Her daughter, she looks good everywhere, how can she allow others to resist the accusations? Besides, the Ye family withdrew from her daughter's family affairs some time ago, and she hasn't settled accounts with Mrs. Ye yet, but this time she ran to the front and made a lot of nonsense, which is really unreasonable!
She immediately sank her face: "Didn't you quit our kiss for this?" What is the reason for running to say this now? Is it true that no one in our Zhong family can't do it? Besides, in what capacity did you come to accuse my family Yu'er? Although she has no father, she still has my mother to teach, don't worry about Mrs. Laoye. You better go home and teach your son well, don't pull anyone into the house and ruin your reputation! ”
Zhong Lingyu looked at her mother for a moment, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
She really didn't expect that her mother, who had been extremely weak all her life, would have a tough and poisonous tongue. It seems that I am still very important in my mother's heart~ Mother's maintenance gave birth to a warm current in her heart, even when she saw Mrs. Ye, it was pleasing to her eyes.
Mrs. Ye is just making a prelude, she doesn't want Zhong Lingyu to be too arrogant, and she has to make a turn later. But before she finished speaking, she was blocked back by Zhuang's family, Zhong Lingyu seemed to have not understood her words, she suddenly sulked in her heart, and almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood.
According to her temperament, at this time, she couldn't wait to throw off her sleeves and leave immediately, but thinking of her son's plea, she swallowed this breath hatefully, and swore in her heart that when Zhong Lingyu entered the Ye family's door, she would definitely be brutally grinded to death and tortured for a lifetime before she was willing to rest.
Looking forward to this "beautiful" future, she endured this sulking and smiled to comfort Zhuang: "Mrs. Zhong, don't worry, listen to me first." ”
