Chapter 45: The third room suffers
Although Mei Xiaotong thinks that the Zhou family is careful and calculating, the Zhou family is qualified to be a mother, and all her calculations and careful thoughts are for the sake of her children.
Even if he is scolded by Mrs. Li, the next time, as long as it is for the sake of the child, the Zhou family will still go against the wind.
There are many times, and there are always one or two times that can achieve the goal.
Wen's seems to be indisputable, and Sanfang suffers the most in daily life.
Look at Xiaoque's red eyes again, and she has to hold back her tears to prevent her tears from falling.
Mei Xiaotong's heart softened.
Originally, I was just going to teach Xiaoque a little lesson, but now that she is so pitiful, forget it, appease her.
took out the remaining red head flower from his sleeve again, and put on a straight face: "Xiaoque, come here." ”
Xiaoque has been instilled by the Wen family, and Sanfang is looked down upon, so he must be obedient, sensible, diligent, and can't ask too much, and he is almost used to it.
The three-room mother and son are in the Mei family, and their sense of existence has always been very low.
So after the old aunt's attitude towards her changed a little, Xiaoque was the first to notice.
So a little bit of goodness flattered Xiaoque, she was afraid of losing this little bit of goodness, so she almost used all her strength to get closer to her aunt, so that they had three rooms, and she and her younger brothers would not be so sad in the future, right?
Unexpectedly, I messed up all this.
Xiaoque was so depressed that she was afraid to go back to her old days.
Hearing Mei Xiaotong call her over, her eyes were bright and scary, and the little Xiaoque only felt that this was the last chance she could seize at the moment.
Cautiously walked to Mei Xiaotong's side, "Auntie-" There were too many complicated emotions in her tone.
Mei Xiaotong made a straight face: "Seeing that the bamboo leaves have a flower, you don't have it, are you sad?" ”
Xiaoque nodded, and shook his head again: "I, I don't-"
Afraid that Mei Xiaotong would be angry, she didn't even dare to say it sadly.
"Tell the truth!"
"Sad!" Xiaoque is still young after all, and when she was questioned by Mei Xiaotong, the tears that she had endured for a long time flowed out at once.
"Then do you know that yesterday, when my aunt was told by you about a bucket waist, a three-layer chin, and a footbasin face, she was also so sad!" Mei Xiaotong said very seriously.
The little girl Li Zhuye on the side also looked at her face and stood up: "Aunt Mei, I was wrong yesterday, I shouldn't talk nonsense, I will compensate you, don't be angry with me and Xiaoque." ”
Xiaoque also nodded hurriedly: "Auntie, I know it's wrong!" It's true! I swear! I'll never say you're fat again! If I say you're fat, I'll never be able to wear a good-looking headflower for the rest of my life! ”
This is the most poisonous oath that the little girl has thought of so far.
Mei Xiaotong almost couldn't hold back her laughter, but looking at Xiaoque's little girl, with a sincere look, she coughed twice and suppressed her laughter.
"Okay, this time my aunt will forgive you! In the future, whether it is to my aunt or to others, you can't make fun of other people's shortcomings, do you know? Comparing my heart to my heart, if I laugh at Xiaoque, you are ugly, with dark skin, yellow teeth, and less hair, will you be angry? ”
Xiaoque thought about it and shook her head honestly: "I'm not angry!" ”
Mei Xiaotong......
"Then what do people say about you, will you be angry?" Mei Xiaotong swallowed a mouthful of old blood and asked shamelessly.
Xiaoque lowered his head and remained silent.
Li Zhuye on the side was quick to speak, and said for her: "Xiaoque hates people saying that she has no father, last time the Song family's dog said that Xiaoque's mother was useless, saying that Xiaoque has a father is the same as not having a father, and also said that Xiaoque's father must be someone outside, don't Xiaoque." Xiao Que rushed up at that time and cut off Song Dog's hair——"
"Bamboo leaves!" Xiao Que was ashamed and annoyed, and shouted.
The most secret and embarrassing secret in her heart was told by her good friend like this, especially in front of her aunt and her mother, which made her eager to get into it in an orderly manner.
Li Zhuye is still young, and she doesn't know that she is speaking for Xiaoque, and she is not happy.
Mei Xiaotong and Wen are adults, so they naturally know it.
Wen's eyes were red, and he turned his back to wipe his tears, but he was useless, causing his daughter to be talked about outside.
Mei Xiaotong's heart softened, looking at Xiaoque's stubborn emphasis on not letting her tears flow, she knew that she couldn't say anything else now, otherwise she was afraid that the little girl's self-esteem would not be able to stand it.
Therefore, he just pretended to be nothing, and stuffed the red head flower into Xiaoque's hand: "Okay, okay, this one is for you!" Don't cry your nose! ”
Xiaoque didn't react for a while, looked at the head flower in her hand, and realized for a long time that her aunt had also given her a head flower, and it was still the red flower she had in mind!
She was still a little angry and sad, and she was ashamed that her heart was told to be exposed, but at this moment, looking at the red head flower in her hand, she felt very happy, and she was about to fly.
For a while, I didn't know whether I was happy or sad, the expression on my face was very strange, and there were tears in my eyes, but the corners of my mouth were already upturned.
looked at Mei Xiaotong, and then looked at the head flower in the palm of his hand, he finally had a sense of reality, and he couldn't speak clearly with excitement: "Aunt Crab Crab...... Auntie, you are so good, I will be filial to you when I grow up in the future, just like filial piety to my mother, when I have money in the future, I will buy you a flower to wear ......"
Mei Xiaotong imagined herself wearing a flower, uh......
"Alright, alright, let's play." As he spoke, he rubbed the goosebumps on his arm.
Little broken child, his mouth is so sweet!
Li Zhuye saw that Mei Xiaotong was really angry, so he hurriedly pulled Xiaoque to the side, and the two of them went to the well to fetch a basin of water, and went to the water surface to stink.
Wen saw everything in his eyes, and his heart was grateful and sour: "Little sister, thank you!" Alas, it's useless to blame me, Xiaoque and they suffered with me, but fortunately, your old aunt feels sorry for her and takes care of her......"
Mei Xiaotong glanced at Wen lightly, lowered her head and continued to fight against needlework, "Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense, it's just a worthless head flower, anyway, I don't love it, who is it not for?" Why is it distressed and cared for? Your own daughter doesn't feel distressed and doesn't take care of herself, and you still expect me to fail? ”
Maybe it was the influence of Mrs. Li's words yesterday, or maybe it was because I couldn't get used to seeing Wen's forbearance and humility.
It is a good character not to fight or grab, but this can only be done calmly by people who have everything and lack nothing.
Wen, who is at the bottom of the family, as a mother, does not fight or grab, and pin her hopes on others to save, which is too sad.
Fortunately, although Mrs. Li has a poisonous mouth and is a little biased, she treats her grandsons equally, and she doesn't have anything to eat, and if she wants to deduct it, she will also deduct Wen's rations.
Otherwise, with Wen's temperament of suffering losses and silently forbearing, it is a miracle that her three children can be raised so big.
Wen's original stomach was grateful, but Mei Xiaotong's words choked back.
Na Na opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he was afraid of saying too much and making mistakes, so he had to put away his mind and seriously teach Mei Xiaotong how to tie knots, how to flatten needles, and what tricks should be paid attention to when sewing clothes......
Listening to Wen's teaching over there, he didn't pay attention to this side, and Li Zhuye stuck out his tongue at Xiaoque: "Why is your mother still that soft?" I don't know how to cry out when the needle is poked, if she is a little fierce on weekdays, your life will be much better. Like my mother, if my grandmother dared to do this to her, she would have lifted the table a long time ago. ”
Xiao Que's eyes dimmed when she heard Wen's words, but she recovered immediately, anyway, she was used to it, didn't she, cheered up, and said enviously: "If only my mother could have half the fierceness of her aunt!" ”
"Alas, don't be sad, my mother is such a fierce person, she hasn't been by the next door these days!" Li Zhuye wrinkled his nose and comforted his little friend.
"What's going on?"
"It's not the uncle next door's house, there is such an ugly thing, and my mother is dying of anger at home. You don't know, after your family left that day, the He family and theirs almost didn't fight. The He family asked my eldest uncle to return the silver, but the eldest uncle refused to return it, saying what kind of compensation fee. The He family was so angry that they shouted on the spot that the marriage was not over, and Li Jinzhi cried and knelt against, saying that he had to marry He Dawei, otherwise he would force her to die. ”
He also said that if Uncle Guigui didn't return the money, she would have no face to live anyway, so she would hang herself at the door of her house with a rope, so as not to disgrace the Li family! Phew! Speaking of this, Li Zhuye showed a look of disdain
"And then?" Xiaoque came to be interested.
As soon as she cried and made a fuss, He Dawei made a fuss, pulled Li Jinzhi and said that if the two sides did not agree to their marriage, they would die together or something, and the family of three would go underground to reunite. The He family was so frightened that they also panicked, and they all turned their faces, because the two of them pinched their noses and sat down to discuss marriage. ”
"I hid at the base of the courtyard wall and listened, saying that it seemed that ten taels of silver would not be returned, and it should be counted as a dowry. Pick a date for the marriage nearby, and forget it. What else did my uncle want, clothes, etc., but he was scolded by the He family. scolded so badly, saying that Uncle Gui's family sold his daughter or something, and said that Uncle Gui's family was not good, if it wasn't for his son, he wouldn't want to marry Uncle Dagui's family or something. ”
"And then?" Mei Xiaotong was still listening to Wen's explanation of how to sew and mend clothes at first, but then her mind was not on it, her mouth was uh-huh, her ears were actually erected, and she was listening to Li Zhuye talk about the confrontation between the He family and the Li family.
Hearing the highlights, I couldn't help but ask out loud.
Li Zhuye saw that Mei Xiaotong was interested in this, and she had just gotten someone's head flower, so she naturally knew everything and said everything.
Later, the He family said that it was okay to get married, everything was in accordance with the rules of the He family, the dowry was gone, the clothes and jewelry for the bride were gone, and the Li family was going to dowry. In the end, Li Jinlong came back from the school and agreed for Uncle Gui, and the two families agreed, and picked a recent good day to welcome their relatives on the eighth day of June. Li Zhuye crackled, and explained everything between the He family and the Li family.
Mei Xiaotong calculated, it was less than a month, and it seemed that both of them were in a hurry.
If you don't hurry, you can't do it, if you don't hurry up, when the time comes, the woman's belly will be big, not to mention, even if you can't see it now, how will you explain it when she is born in the future?
"Then what's your mother angry about?" Xiaoque asked.
"Don't mention it, Aunt Daxiu next door came over and asked my mother to be the Quanfu person on the day of Li Jinzhi's marriage, and asked my mother to comb her hair and clean her face, my mother didn't want to agree, Aunt Daxiu cried and begged at my house, saying that everything was a relative of the family, and said that Li Jinzhi was like my mother's daughter, and now that my daughter is married, I don't do anything that is easy to do, and I have to the relationship between the two families, pulling my grandmother and my father, forcing my mother to agree. My mother is so angry and embarrassed that she slams the door and bowls at home these days, and it doesn't please her to see any of us, and I can be scolded by my mother five times a day. "Saying that Li Zhuye is also very aggrieved, are they all unjustified disasters, okay?
