Li Ailian and Zhang Yuxiu were cooking at home, and Sister Qiu and Jia carried bamboo baskets to send water tofu to the family. The two of them went to Fang Donkey's house first, and Sister Qiu didn't ask Jia to follow, so she went by herself. She is a person who loves to hold grudges, Fang Laosu, donkey's father and donkey are willing to help her, she is a good person, but it doesn't mean that she can forget how the donkey's mother played tricks on her and Jia's family, and made a lot of trouble, and the whole village who didn't have the brains to do it all knew that the donkey's family wanted to marry her...... It's really nonsense, she and the donkey are only 10 years old, do you want to spread the scandal at such a young age?

Fortunately, both parties didn't take this matter too seriously, if she was two or three years older and made a fuss like this, her reputation would be ruined, except for the little child of the donkey, who else could she marry?

Sister Qiu called by the door, the donkey listened, hurriedly came, Sister Qiu gave him the water tofu, told him that it was delicious to add green onions and flowers to stir-fry, and went back.

Then I went to Lali and waited for a few families, and there were many people in the village who went to the town to catch up with the market in the past two days.

Jia's and Sister Qiu went to send water tofu, which just explained the confusion of the people in the village, first, to take a look at the big guys, the idea is not so good, there are not a lot of water tofu not sold out, and secondly, it is also to establish an attitude for the people in the village, they are honest and honest people, and they want to do everything they can to earn money to pay off debts.

In the afternoon, all the people in the village spread the word, saying that Mrs. Lao Xiucai and Lao Xiucai's daughter are all honest and honest people, different from the people of the old Mei family, Mrs. Lao Xiucai is just sick, so she went to sell water tofu to make money, and there is a more important news, the old Xiucai's water tofu is very delicious, and the previous astringent water tofu is completely different!

"!" Second Uncle Mei couldn't help but snort after listening to the news, his intestines were all green in his heart, and he couldn't wait to go to the town to find the two pit fathers' Lang Zhong to settle the account, these days I heard Mao's chatter, he only knew that Mao's plan was to leave Jia's work and sell Sister Qiu to pay off the debt.

Now there is no Jia family to work, and Sister Qiu can't be sold. Fortunately, all the debts were lost to the Jia family, and the Mei family no longer had to worry about it.

Rao is like this, how can the resentment and jealousy in the heart of Second Uncle Mei be eliminated, what kind of water tofu will Sister Qiu's little girl make? It must be made by the eldest sister-in-law Jia's family, if Jia's is still in Mei's house, and goes out to sell water tofu every day, the money will not flow to the house like flowing water! No matter how much money the Jia family earns, it is all the property of the Mei family, and Sister Qiu's girl is not considered the Mei family, so the money is waiting for their sons, and now......

Second Uncle Mei looked at Jia and Sister Qiu again, and the two seemed to be enemies who took his money. Mei Tang crossed his waist and said to the chattering circle at the entrance of the village: "I tell you, but don't blame me for not telling you in advance, at first Lang Zhong said that my sister-in-law's illness would be too good, and you still said that the water tofu she made was delicious?" Hyung-hyung! ”

Second Uncle Mei laughed strangely twice, "Don't blame me if you're sick!" ”

"That's it! Mei Lao Er, I'm talking nonsense there again! If you say that, you are not afraid that the next thunder will kill you! "It is Furong's sister-in-law who said this, she is also one of the creditors of the Mei family, and in the face of debts, Mei Laoer, a man who has no responsibility and relies on it, is extremely hateful, and what Sister Qiu and Jia's orphans and widows do is admirable, Furong's sister-in-law is a cool person, and she looks down on Mei Tang's style very much.

Mei Tang stomped her feet angrily, pointed at Furong's sister-in-law and said, "Why do you say that your little daughter-in-law is not clean?" I kindly remind you, don't rely on me when you get sick! ”

Fleur's sister-in-law smiled, "Who dares to rely on you?" No one can rely on you! Then Lang Zhong also said that Mrs. Xiucai can't live, but now? Mrs. Xiucai is so raw! I eat the water tofu of Mrs. Xiucai's house, and our family is walking straight, and we are not afraid of anything. You're a black-hearted person, and it's good to see you! ”

"You!" Mei Tang couldn't say a word of the block, so he played straight up, "You say it again, I'll ...... I'll hit you! ”

"You fight!" Furong's sister-in-law took a few steps forward, she was not afraid of him at all, the head man in her family was strong, one top three or four Mei Tang, and four equally strong little uncles, if it really started, Mei Tang was only afraid that she would be beaten into a grass pig's head.

Mei Tang is even stronger than the Mao family, seeing that Furong is about to discuss the truth with him, she hurriedly took a few steps back, and muttered, "Good men don't fight women!" Then he strode home, pretending not to listen to the laughter behind him.

When she got home, Mei Tang went straight to the small kitchen and said to Mao, who was cooking: "Mother, do you know? The sister-in-law's body is fine! I also made water tofu with Sister Qiu and sold water tofu! ”

Mao pouted and glanced at Mei Tang, and said uncontrollably: "I know." ”

Seeing Mao's lukewarm attitude, Mei Tang became anxious, "Mother, this is not a thing!" Your pipes! ”

"Tube? What's the matter? Mao preached, thinking that now that he is old and has worked hard, he still has to serve Aunt Mei, and no matter how hard he scolds, he can't solve the resentment in Mao's heart.

Mei Tang paused, and immediately said: "Mother, you called your sister-in-law back, at first the family was all to blame for the level of Langzhong, the diagnosis was wrong, and it was the harm of our separation!" ”

Mao's family also regretted the first separation, if it is not divided, there is Jia's family, the things in this family, where to use her to move a finger, just move her mouth to ask Jia's to do the work, some of them are good when they are unconscious, this is useless, it shows that Jia's is good. However, she was also clear in her heart, and the deed of separation was written in black and white, and all of them went to the yamen for the record, and the raw rice was cooked into cooked rice.

"How can this be?" Mao said hatefully, "The deed of separation has all been written!" ”

Mei Tang had already thought about this layer, and spit on the stars to give Mao's ideas, "Mother, what is the deed of separation?" You are the mother-in-law of the eldest sister-in-law, and the grandmother of Sister Qiu, even if the family is separated, why do you say they can not hear it? You're not the elder of the two of them, are you? Can the two of them be filial to you? Are we a family with blood relatives, and it is not a matter for you to call your sister-in-law and Sister Qiu back? ”

Mao's eyes looked gloomily at the boiling soup in the pot, and he spoke for a long time: "Your sister-in-law is easy to say, Sister Qiu's Nizi...... But he was ruthless and disobedient. ”

"What can a girl do?" Mei Tang preached. Seeing that Mao's was silent, he said again: "Mother, it's not that I said behind my back that my sister-in-law is not good with Sister Qiu, they sell water tofu and send water tofu to the Furong family and Brother Daqiao's family, so we won't send it!" Look, what's this thing called? All the closest relatives want the foolish mother and mother to be enemies! We're not as good as Fleur's family? Mother, it's not okay to ask your sister-in-law and Sister Qiu to stand on their own! The two of them don't have an elder to guide them, so they don't care about what they do! ”

Mao's own concerns, at first she and Mei Tang insisted on "throwing" the sick Jia out, but now that people are fine, they are called back, and she came forward for this matter, so she wants the people in the village to poke her spine in the back of her life, she is so strong and has to be face-saving, the most important thing is that Sister Qiu's Nizi is very ambitious, when the two moved out, Sister Qiu scolded the second child, she listened to Qingqing clearly, this Nizi's temper followed the vulgar and fierce Li Ailian, I am afraid that I will not listen to her.

"Mother, my sister-in-law can make money by selling bean curd and water tofu in the market!" Mei Tang said, "Everyone I saw said that in the morning, none of the people who came to eat had ever stopped, and they couldn't collect any money!" Mother, you are also clear about the situation in our family, if you call your sister-in-law back, and you want to provide the old man with a little boy, it's all right! ”

The last sentence completely moved Mao's family, Meiqu studied and sold a lot of flowers, all the two taels of silver in January, I heard him say that this year is very important, try to prepare the results, try to be an old showman, can not cut off the supply at this time, if the family does not enter again, after the summer, she will sell the land for Meiqu to study, the land at home is originally less, barely making ends meet, if you sell the land again, the family eats all the problems.

"I'm going to call her back!" Mao made up her mind, she is her mother-in-law, what do you ask your daughter-in-law to do, otherwise it is not filial.

When it was close to noon, Sister Qiu and Jia's went to Jiang's house, and gave Aunt Chunhua a pound of water tofu to Aunt Chunhua, leaving her to add a dish for lunch. Aunt Chunhua fished more than two catties of pickled garlic and sour cowpeas from the sauce urn, wrapped them in Ye Zi, and asked Sister Qiu to take them back.

Sister Qiu didn't shirk either, firstly, the sour cowpeas were used in the bean curd, and secondly, the pickles that were indeed not eaten at home, and the two families were all cooked like this, but politely alienated the relationship between the two families.

Not long after the two arrived home, there was a knock on the door, and Lin Zhishi shouted at the door: "Sister Qiu? At home? ”

Sister Qiu hurriedly ran to open the door, and saw Lin Zhun standing by the door with two large bundles of firewood on her back, and smiled at her.

"Your family has a lot of waste firewood for boiling bean juice, and it is not enough to rely on the mountains and forests to pick iron." Lin Zhun smiled and said, "This is what I went to the mountains and forests with my father to chop it down just now, enough for you to burn it for a few days, and we will cut it when we run out." ”

Sister Qiu didn't know what to say, she was just thinking about Chai He, Lin Zhun had already sent Chai He to the door, and she always felt that there were more and more favors owed to Lin Zhun, and she couldn't pay it back.

As soon as the two of them unloaded the firewood into the ground, the sound of the Mao family by the door came, "Sister Qiu, where are your mother's relatives?" ”

Sister Qiu was startled, turned her head to look over, Mao was pouting and looking at the newly painted door of her house, without waiting for Sister Qiu to reply, she walked into the courtyard by herself, a pair of small eyes looked around, and her eyes were fixed on the small grinding plate in the courtyard.
