Chapter 376: Old-fashioned
"Yes." Tian Youwei had a feeling of throwing her eyes to the blind man, so she simply sat upright and solemn, this old lady looked a little old-fashioned, maybe she liked this?
Old Madam Mu really said: "That's right, good little girl, don't make those gestures." ”
"......" Tian Youwei began to think that they were probably not all the way, and her posture was not very good, should she always keep a straight face like this old lady?
Old Madam Mu continued to ask, "What is your father and brother doing?" ”
Tian Youwei was sitting precariously, with a glance: "My father received the tribute porcelain firing, and the second brother is a Jinshi of today's science and technology, and he is a county magistrate in Shazhou." ”
"They are not mediocre and incompetent, and they are not short of food and clothing." Old Madam Mu frowned: "Why did you let a woman come out and show up to do business?" ”
"Hiss......" This soft hissing was made by Mrs. Xiao Mu, and she didn't expect her mother-in-law to say such rude words, so she hurriedly smiled and said, "Miss Xiaotian, I didn't ask you if you had anything to do just now, or else, you should go and get busy first?" ”
Tian Youwei's face was a little unsightly, but she could bear it, but if she wanted to continue listening, she was really embarrassed by herself.
The so-called people who have different ways do not conspire with each other, and this is exactly the case.
So she took the opportunity to stand up: "There is indeed something to do......
"I'll send you out." Mrs. Mu used "you", obviously worried that she would be angry because of Mrs. Mu's rudeness.
"I'm not done yet, so why are you in such a hurry? Do you think I'm talking too much? Or do you think I'm unkind? Or is it a food that is not good? ”
Old Madam Mu refused to let Tian Youwei go: "I see you Zhong Lingyuxiu, you are quite talented, I can't bear you to go the wrong way, otherwise I will eat too much and offend you?" Sit down! Listen to me before you go! ”
Tian Youwei maintained an embarrassed but polite smile and sat back again, silently reciting, "Patience, patience, maybe one day I will really ask for someone or not." ”
Old Madam Mu said earnestly: "If you think about it, women are naturally weak, and if they make a mistake, they will be criticized." In that case of a lack of food and clothing, the woman had to come out to make a living, which was helpless.
Like you, who don't lack anything, you should stay at home, calligraphy, painting, porcelain and porcelain hobby can only be used for leisure and entertainment, how can you exchange money everywhere, anyone can buy it?
Think about it, if that mad man buys you a pair of calligraphy and paintings, gets you a piece of porcelain, plays with it in his hand, and thinks of some dirty things in his heart, won't he defile you in vain! ”
"Excuse me, I'll have to interrupt you." Tian Youwei stood up, smiled, and said unhurriedly: "I am the kind of person who lacks food and clothing, and if I don't take care of it, I will have no food." ”
Old Madam Mu was slightly surprised: "Your father and brother ......"
Tian Youwei said calmly: "My father, he just wants to pass on Yue porcelain, even if everyone no longer likes it, and he obviously wants to lose money or even go bankrupt, he also wants to burn secret color porcelain."
He also likes to help the villagers, fight for righteousness and scatter wealth, when the people and bandits were rampant burning and killing, he took out the hard-earned family property to support the township brave, and took these people to protect the family and defend the country.
For this reason, my eldest brother died in battle, and he himself was left with a wound and illness, and the family had little property left, and I could not afford to eat white flour when I grew wheat at home, and only I could get an egg a day.
My brother likes to read and can read well, but my father insisted that he abandon his studies to inherit the family business, and follow the master to learn how to burn kilns. My second brother is most afraid of pain, but he is willing to be beaten and scolded for it.
My biological mother passed away a long time ago, taking care of our stepmother, she had no children of her own, adopted Ah Jing and Qiu Bao, she was careful and hardworking, she didn't have enough money during the Chinese New Year, she only made us new clothes, and she wore old clothes herself.
She has a weak temperament, even if she is angry with my father, she doesn't dare to say it directly, her ears are soft, she is easy to be instigated, and she has her mother's family to take care of.
My kiln is close to the mountains and rivers, close to the wharf, the porcelain clay is the thickest, the surrounding mountains and forests have the most firewood, it is the best kiln by the ancient silver lake, and the quality of the tribute porcelain fired is the best, and many people want it.
They are all smarter than my father, they want to take my father and brother, burn my storehouse, poison my father's wine, kill my master, steal my family's glaze water formula, bribe my brother to kill my brother. ”
"In this case, if I sit at home, I will either starve to death or really fall. I'm sorry, ma'am, but I still have some business to attend to, thank you for your kind advice and good care. ”
Tian Youwei finished saying this clearly and quickly, drank the tea soup without hurrying, and saluted and thanked Mrs. Xiao Mu: "Madame's tea soup is very good. ”
With that, she turned away with a smile on her face, and did not take the pair of bottles with her.
Mrs. Xiao Mu has long been stunned, in recent years, almost no one has refuted the old lady in person like this, even if the queen mother is soft-spoken when talking to the old lady.
But Tian Youwei, such a little girl, can say such a call with a smile on her face, without a little anger, in an orderly manner, and in a polite manner.
And his mother-in-law had nothing to say, and she didn't argue or lose her temper for so long.
"Get her bottle out!" Of course, Old Madam Mu's face was not very good-looking, her mouth was tightly pursed, and her eyes were full of unhappiness.
"Yes." Mrs. Xiao Mu called the maid and chased out with the gift box together.
Tian Youwei was anxious when she heard her call, so she had to stop and said with a smile: "Madame, but you can't bear me?" ”
Mrs. Xiao Mu was originally quite embarrassed, but when she saw Tian Youwei taking the initiative to joke with herself, she also laughed: "This kid ...... Don't talk to the old lady, okay? I apologize to you. Her temperament is like this, the older she gets, the more old-fashioned she becomes, she thinks she is good to others, and she doesn't care if people like to listen to it or not, what's going on. ”
Tian Youwei said with a smile: "Your family let the lady accompany the old lady out, just to know that you can handle these things properly, right?" ”
Mrs. Xiao Mu smiled happily and said modestly: "There is no other suitable person in the family. ”
"You keep this bottle and play with it, I won't take it back, I heard that the house is the home of the martyrs, and my heart is very respectful, so I am willing to give, if you refuse to accept it, put it in front of this post house, who has the fate to pick it up. Xi Mei, let's go! ”
Tian Youwei walked fast, disappeared in a blink of an eye, and when Mrs. Xiao Mu chased out, the Tian family's carriage had already left.
The maid was embarrassed: "Second lady, what should I do?" Is it really true that such a valuable thing is casually left in front of the post house and picked up by others? ”
Mrs. Xiao Mu struggled for a moment with the gift box, gritted her teeth and said, "Put it away!" What if people come back and ask us what to do? What to pay back? You don't have to talk about it, you know? ”
She was really fond of the bottles, but also really couldn't afford them.
