Chapter 188: It's Not Much
Mei Changqing can be regarded as more knowledgeable, and when he heard the old lady's words, his jaw fell, and his voice trembled, "Old ...... Old sister? β
Mrs. Li pumped a broom on him, and he forgot to hide because he was in pain.
"Ouch, old girl? Is it really my old sister? Sister, why have you lost weight like this? It's not me who said, old girl, you're still thin and good-looking! You have lost weight, you look so good, you don't even dare to recognize the third brother! These ten miles and eight townships, no, our entire Jing County, old girl, if you dare to say that the second is good-looking, no one will dare to call it the first, hurry up, let the third brother take a good look at you. β
Mei Xiaotong pursed her lips and smiled, in the memory of the original owner, the relationship between Mei Changqing and Mei Xiaotong was the best among the brothers and sisters.
Mei Changqing's greasy mouth, when he sees people, he talks about people, and when he sees ghosts, he is best at coaxing people.
I also know current affairs, and I know that the Lao Mei family is the most powerful, and who is the person who has the silver bag? Mother-in-law Li.
And who is the most painful person for her mother-in-law, Mrs. Li? Old sister Mei Xiaotong.
My mother is too shrewd, and there are too many sycophants, so it won't work, so what should I do?
Shoot the old girl, although the old sister is a little more delicate, her brain is not good, but she is so coaxing.
Therefore, Mei Changqing usually goes home and has ten big money on him, at least half of which he has to bring Mei Xiaotong something to eat. is the kind of family that has gifts, and Mei Xiaotong's must be the most expensive one; If you don't have the money, you can only buy one, needless to say, it is definitely only for Mei Xiaotong to buy alone, and the daughter-in-law and children are the kind that are behind.
Because of this, Mei Xiaotong is her favorite brother Mei Changqing, and she often said good things to Mei Changqing in front of Mrs. Li.
Otherwise, with Mrs. Li's personality, silver is second only to the life of her daughter, can she take it out so happily to wipe the third child's buttocks?
It's not all for the sake of the third child's good daughter.
Mrs. Li really saw that the eldest and second sons in the family were unreliable, the fourth lacked hearts, and only the third was mixed.
The girl will get married in the future, can't she have the support of her mother's brother, she is also counting on the third child to look at this sentiment when the time comes, what is really the matter, to fight for the daughter?
Mei Xiaotong nodded at Mei Changqing, "Third brother is back." β
Then he walked up to Mrs. Li with a concerned face, "Mother, are you tired?" I'll pinch your arm, and then smoke the third brother after slowing down. β
This is Mei Changqing's old trick after Mei Changqing was pumped hard before, and after asking Mei Xiaotong for help.
Mrs. Li couldn't hold back all of a sudden, showed a smile, and stopped, "Okay, then mother, I'll rest first, Xiaotong will pinch me." β
A scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping to chase and beat his son stopped like this.
Mei Changqing looked at this posture, the old lady had stopped, and she didn't have to be beaten.
If he was amnesty, he smiled at Mei Xiaotong, "It's still an old girl."
I feel sorry for the third brother, and it is not in vain for our brothers and sisters in the past. Oh, old sister, the girl's hand should be pampered, where can you pinch your mother's arm, it's the third brother who tired her mother, you have to give this opportunity to the third brother, let the third brother be filial to his mother......"
As he spoke, he leaned over and pinched Mrs. Li's arm.
Mrs. Li glared at him, but she didn't object.
Mei Xiaotong stepped aside two steps.
Mei Changqing was serving Mrs. Li, but she had nothing to say, "I said sister."
Ah, why is it that the third brother has only been away from home for less than a year, and you have lost weight like this? It's all wrong to blame the third brother, it's because the third brother is not at home, so he tired you out, right? Now that the third brother is back, don't worry, the third brother will go to the town to give you delicious food, and keep the ...... that will raise you for nothing at the end of the year."
Mei Xiaotong heard this, why didn't she hear it, what did you call raising yourself white and fat before the Chinese New Year, and being a New Year's pig? Fattened up at the end of the year?
Suddenly, his face twisted, and he complained to Mrs. Li, "Mother, I think the third brother still has the strength to massage you, which proves that it hasn't been played yet, why don't you get up and continue to smoke?" β
As he spoke, he handed over the broom.
Mei Changqing immediately jumped away, and soon realized that this was what the little sister was unhappy with herself, what did she say? Said that at the end of the year, he was raised for nothing?
"Bah, look at my mouth, I really can't speak! Our sister is so beautiful and good-looking, just right, definitely not worried about not being able to get married, where do you need to raise it again, the third brother is happy and confused, he can't speak, don't you accompany your sister! Mei Changqing immediately changed her tune.
When Mrs. Li heard this, her eyebrows raised, "You are a dead person, what are you talking about, when did your sister-in-law get married?" Do you want to get beaten again? β
"Yes, yes, yes, our sister is outstanding, no matter whether she is fat or thin, it is all a hot item, I am stupid, I pump my own mouth." Mei Changqing twitched his face as he spoke.
The people who watched the excitement laughed.
Mei Xiaotong saw Mei Changqing singing well, and slapped herself several times, her face didn't blush, and she didn't know if he was thick-skinned or light-handed.
Seeing a large number of people watching the excitement outside, I didn't bother to bother with him, "Okay, mother, the third brother just came back, and he worked hard all the way, let's remember this beating first, and then he will do it again, let's settle accounts together and then worry about him." β
Mrs. Li glared at Mei Changqing, patted the ashes on her clothes, and carried a broom to enter the yard.
Mei Changqing helped Mrs. Li, and before she entered the courtyard gate, she saw a head poking out of the courtyard.
It's Xiaojuan.
Xiaojuan heard such a big movement outside in the yard and knew that it was her father who came back, and her heart only itched.
He is most envious of the big house and the lobby brother, they have the uncle as their father by his side all the time.
Himself, from birth to the present, has not spent much time with his father, although his sister Xiaoque has a bad face when she mentions her father.
Yes
can't stand a child's admiration for his father.
Therefore, he hurriedly ran to the gate of the courtyard, opened the door and looked outside, and saw that his father was running all over the ground by milk, and he couldn't bear to run to Wen's side, "Mother, mother, father is back, and he was pumped by the milk with a broomββ"
The original intention was to let the mother persuade the milk, but I heard Xiaoque humming next to her, muttering in a low voice, "Good pumping, pumping more-"
Looking at Wen again, he was stunned, his eyes looked straight outside, and he was stunned.
Xiaojuan saw this posture, her mother had no hope, bit her lip, and ran to the gate of the courtyard again, covering her face, and looking out from between her fingers.
Seeing that his father was pumped, his empathetic little body trembled.
Finally, my father coaxed the milk and was about to enter the house, he stood by the door a little shyly and twisted, and when he saw Mei Changqing entering the yard, he shouted in a small voice, "Dad!" You're back......"
The first update, there are only three updates today, and I was halfway through yesterday, and there was a problem with the system, and everything had to start again, and I was depressed
Mei Changqing looked down, smiled, touched Xiaojuan's head and said, "Xiaojuan, you've grown taller again, so ...... good."
Xiaojuan was touched by her father, and her little face was red with excitement.
Although Xiaoque dislikes it, he also knows that his father is unreliable, but no matter how unreliable he is, he is also his father, Mei Changqing has money in his hands, and when he gets better, he is still good for a few children.
So even if Xiaoque knew that Mei Changqing was not good, but he hadn't seen him for a year, he really remembered it in his heart, and he took Xiao Xiaoduo's hand and moved it slowly.
reluctantly shouted Dad, and let Xiao Duo call Dad.
Xiao Duo wrinkled her little face, biting her fingers, and looked a little timid.
Xiaoque asked him to call his father, but he only held Xiaoque's legs and hid backwards.
When he was born, Mei Changqing ran out in order to avoid gambling debts, and later took advantage of Xiao Duo's catch Zhou, when he was tired of entertaining guests at home and sending guests away, he secretly came back and robbed Wen's only remaining dowry and private room and ran away.
That is, Xiao Duo didn't recognize this father at all, he just felt strange, but his brothers and sisters all called him father, and he wanted him to shout, he only felt scared and a little curious, it turned out that he also had a father, and his father was like this.
So even hiding behind Xiaoque's legs, he couldn't help but sneak a few glances, and then habitually went to find Wen.
Wen stood behind the children, his eyes were a little red, no matter how much he hated this man before, he left his mother and ignored it, and snatched his last bit of dowry before leaving, but when this man appeared in front of her, she couldn't help but feel a little happy and reassured.
Wen felt that she was not as powerful as her sister-in-law, she knew that this man could not be counted on, but after he came back, she felt a little confident, and the feeling of having a man in the family and not having a man was different.
Mei Changqing to himself this
The youngest son had no impression, before he left, he took a look, only felt thin and small, and now it seems that there is flesh on his face, and he looks like a clever child.
After all, it was his own flesh and blood, Mei Changqing was still happy in his heart, watching Xiao Duo walk up to Wen's face, he looked up and looked over, and the two couples looked at each other.
This scene......
Mei Xiaotong coughed, "Third brother, if you have anything to say in the house, I see what delicious food you brought us back." β
Mei Changqing hurriedly agreed, "Okay, you guys go into the house, I'll come right away." β
He turned around and went out again, in the direction of the carriage.
At this time, everyone realized that the carriage had not left yet, and it was still quietly staying at the door of Lao Mei's house.
A neighbor quipped, "Oh, Wang Laosan, what valuable things did you drag a cart of money back?" Take it out and let us see it for a long time. β
"Hiding it so tightly, didn't you bring a little wife back?!" If you have that quick mouth, you laugh.
Mei Xiaotong originally felt that something was wrong after seeing the carriage.
Even if it is developed outside, if you really want to bring things back to your family, there are big bags and small bags, there is that kind of carriage that specializes in hauling goods, with Mei Changqing's loving temperament, there is really something in this carriage, it must be swaggered through the market, and you can know it all the way.
How could such a lightweight, sturdy, and usually sitting-person carriage be hired? The curtain of the carriage was so tightly covered that it was impossible to see what was inside.
There is something strange.
king
Yongzhu and Mrs. Li subconsciously glanced at each other suspiciously.
Who is Mrs. Li, Mei Changqing was born to her, she still doesn't understand what virtue her third son is?
When you go to the street, buy a straw, and you can brag all the way, you are really going to make a fortune, and you can't wait to take the horn and shout back along the road to let people know that he is the third king.
There must be something wrong with being so sneaky and hiding.
Especially Mei Changqing has always been able to speak, no matter what others say, she smiles, and when she heard the little wife before, the smile on her face suddenly became embarrassing, which made Mrs. Li and Mei Xiaotong have an ominous premonition.
Mei Changqing reacted immediately, and smiled, "Everyone is laughing, there is nothing valuable, but I just brought some food and clothes for the elderly and children at home." β
As he spoke, he turned his head and said, "Catch the car, you drive the car to the back door of our house and go in......"
As he spoke, he pointed in the direction of the back door and led the coachman to that direction.
It's not easy for the neighbors to ask any more.
Some people speculate that they are afraid that this Wang Laosan is just a face-saving person, but the actual carriage is empty, so he is afraid that people will see the jokes, right? It's rare to come back this time, and I actually got a new set of clothes to wear, and I definitely have to put it on.
There is that old and shrewd person, and they all see that something is inappropriate, but I am afraid that this Wang Laosan wants to hide something.
It's just that whether it's good or bad, it's all the Mei family's business, and they can't interfere with outsiders.
In addition, at this moment, there are people from other villages to sell mountain goods, and everyone is not easy to block, and they will disperse one after another when they look at the sky.
Mei Changqing took the driver into the yard from the back door.
Mei Xiaoque was left alone at the door to inspect the mountain goods, and Mrs. Li and the others also turned around and entered the yard, and even Mei Zhongzhong followed in and covered the gate.
As soon as the carriage entered the courtyard, Mei Changqing signaled to the coachman to go out, and without waiting for Mrs. Li to ask, she knelt down in front of her, and said with a straight face, "Mother, I want to discuss something with you, do you want to drink saliva first, calm down, listen to what I said, don't beat my son first, okay?" β
Mrs. Li held her hands and did not answer.
This is obviously boring!
Mei Xiaotong glanced at the carriage a few more times, and felt more and more that there was a problem.
Mei Zhongzhong walked over and knocked the cigarette pouch pot, "Say, what's the matter?" β
"Dad, mother, son...... My son brought someone back outside, specially serving the two elders, my father and mother raised me so big, I didn't let my father and mother enjoy happiness for a day, so ......" Mei Changqing rubbed his hands, a little embarrassed.
Mei Xiaotong said quickly, "So, third brother, you bought a subordinate to come back and wait for our father and mother to come?" β
Mrs. Li patted her thigh very tacitly, "Third child, it turns out that you really made a fortune outside, and you know how to buy someone to come back to serve me and you, hey!" God is eye-opening! Old man, did you hear it, the third child is out, we can still enjoy the blessings of the third child in this life! I've heard that the old ladies in the city are all served by subordinates, who can do everything to serve tea, pour water, laundry, cook, comb hair and dress. β
"I didn't expect that I would have to be an old lady one day. The third child, you are stupid, why don't you call down the people you bought, really, whose people still use them as carriages, can't you run behind them? The third child, what kind of person did you buy, why don't you look ignorant, don't be deceived, right? β
Mei Zhongzhong was sung and harmonized by Mrs. Li's mother and daughter, and took it seriously, "Nonsense, our family has only had a good life for a few days, so what will we buy?" It's not so bad to have money, hurry up and give people a tooth back, we in the countryside, just live our duty, you see who can afford the next person, don't let people see the jokes. β
"Boss, look at what you said, this is the third child who is filial to us, and if he buys it back to serve us, he just needs it as an object. Besides, what's wrong with the countrymen, the countrymen are not worthy of using the next people? I bought it, let's call it for two days, let the next person do the dirty work in our house, and when it's done, it's not too late for us to go back! "Mrs. Li has other plans.
Mei Changqing listened with an embarrassed expression as his father and mother listened to his father and mother about how to make people quarrel, thinking about explaining something, first, he didn't find a chance to speak, and secondly, he squinted at Wen's thin appearance and the three children surrounding Wen's in front of him, and suddenly felt a little difficult
Reluctant.
At this moment, a soft cough came from inside the curtain of the car.
Immediately afterwards, a white and tender woman's hand came out from inside, her skin was fair, she looked like she had never done any work, and her fingernails were still dyed red, making her hands more and more tender and beautiful.
When the people saw these hands......
There was a sudden silence in the courtyard of the Mei family.
Even if you don't have many hearts, you can know that this is not a subordinate.
How can there be a subordinate whose hands are so white and tender, and who still have long nails that are dyed red?
This is not a pair of hands doing the work at all!
Not to mention Mei's loyalty, the whole family was stunned.
Only Mei Xiaotong's eyes darkened, and she exchanged a look with Mrs. Li who knew each other.
The mother and daughter had long been suspicious of the people in the carriage, so they deliberately sang and harmonized, just to force the people in the carriage to come out.
Sure enough, after a few words, I couldn't hold my breath.
The curtain was lifted, and a long, handsome and slender woman, half-hung her head, stepped out of the carriage by herself.
The woman was dressed in a plum-red dress, delicate and gorgeous, with a white skin and a thin waist, and a woman's hair in a bun, with two gold and silver hairpins inserted on it.
His face was coated with grease powder, which made him look very white, and when he got out of the car, he still had a fragrant wind on his body.
All of a sudden, a pair of fox eyes turned delicately, looked at the Wan family, and then blessed, Wang Lao Wang Zhu, and Mrs. Li blessed, "Daddy, my surname is Sun, my name is Ah Fu, I will be filial to the two elders in the future, and serve tea and water to the two elders." β
Mei's face turned red with anger.
Mrs. Li's eyes flashed, and her heart was completely clear.
What kind of person is this?
This is clearly a wild woman who the third child got back outside!
Although Mei Xiaotong was prepared, she really saw the woman Mei Changqing brought back, full of wind and dust, and was immediately dumbfounded, Mei Changqing likes this tune?
Not to mention that there is also a courtyard where the Mei family is dumbfounded.
Zhou covered his mouth exaggeratedly.
Wen's face suddenly lost blood, pale and miserable, his body was shaky, and he helped Xiaoque to take two steps and leaned against the courtyard wall so that he did not fall.
