Chapter 8 is remembered
Sending Dou Liangfu and Mai Xiaoyuan away, the people in the third room went to Mai Xing's house very tacitly, because they didn't get anything cheap from the rich man's family, and the Wu family was a little lukewarm to Shan Cuihua. also scolded the dog in the yard, what "ungrateful, dogs look down on people, bullying dog things" and the like kept popping out.
Is Shan Cuihua a person who swallows her anger? She glared at Wu and said: "It's useless to be jealous of some things, if you have kung fu and eyes, others might as well take a good look at others for your daughter, and if you have the ability, you can also find a rich uncle!" β
Wu was speechless for a while, and in the afternoon, she once took advantage of the crowd to push her daughter in front of Dou Liangfu, but unfortunately Dou Liangfu glanced at the two of them and never looked at them a second time.
The girl is disliked like this, can the Wu family not be angry in his heart? In her eyes, her own children are many times better than the second family. Isn't Xiaofang just big eyes and small mouth? If she is white, where can she be worthy of her daughter; Not to mention Xiao Huan, who can only see a pair of eyes on her face, thin skin and bones, it is difficult for this kind of girl to marry in the village.
Wanting to laugh at herself, she seemed to have forgotten that there was a half-dead person at home who could be blown away by the wind at any time, and Wu replied: "Even if my daughter can't marry a rich man, at least it's not a problem to marry out, unlike some people's daughters, who can be blown away without a rope when they encounter a slightly stronger wind, and it's probably not easy to find their in-laws in the village!" β
"Auntie, who are you scolding! My little family recruited you to provoke you, if she marries or not, she will get other people's jokes, and she won't be able to laugh at her own family! Milk, you give a judge. Mai Xiaofang ignored Wu and asked her grandmother Mai Liu directly.
If you ask Mai Liu which grandchild she is most reluctant to deal with, the first one is Mai Xiaofang, and if she is angry, she will go back directly, and she has to ask for an explanation. Mak Liu brushed his hair, interrupted the conversation between his daughter-in-law and granddaughter, and asked them what they were here for, wanting to quarrel and go outside.
Wu can tell what is the most important thing now, honestly shut his mouth, Mai Xiaofang pursed her lips, and said goodbye to the elders and went home, she didn't think that her family could get a well, with her grandmother, of course the best thing should go to the uncle.
The final result of the discussion was that the water well was shared by the three families, and each family had a share of the three acres of land allocated from the second room, and all those things for daily use belonged to the Mai Xing family. When Shan Cuihua turned around to go out, Mai Liu mentioned the fabric and silk flowers brought back by her eldest granddaughter: "There are only five girls in the family now, if Xiaofang and Xiaohuan are wearing new clothes and wearing new silk flowers, Xiaoling and they only have old clothes and headbands, it won't look good." β
This time it was changed to a blatant request, Shan Cuihua guessed that it must be the sister-in-law who came back yesterday and said something, and the mother-in-law would open her mouth like this, her old man had never said such a thing in the past.
In fact, there are only a few brightly colored fabrics at home, and it would be good for the eldest girl to come back two or three times a year. Most of the things she took were rice and noodles, and each of her two younger sisters could only get one piece of cloth and a few silk flowers. Let's make new clothes for the New Year! Usually prepare to go out, in case there is an occasion, a market or a wedding banquet, you must also have new clothes to support the faΓ§ade!
Listening to her mother-in-law's meaning, she wanted to give the old family Xiaoling, Xiaohui and Xiao Miao of the third family a cloth each, and Shan Cuihua's face was a little unpleasant. Mai Liu glanced at his daughter-in-law, turned his head and asked Mai Wang: "You have a total of three nieces, and the material for each of them to ask for a new dress is not too much!" It's not that you can't take it out, Xiaoyuan will take it home in the future, right? β
Mai Wan glanced at his daughter-in-law and whispered "um", I don't know whether he agreed or not. Shan Cuihua didn't say anything, and after saying goodbye to her mother-in-law, she took her family out of Mai Xing's yard.
"Milk, the second uncle and the second aunt agreed or not!" Mai Xiaoling, who was carrying a handkerchief in her hand and shaking three times in one step, walked and spoke in strict accordance with the methods taught by Wu. She and Wu's thoughts are strikingly similar, and she feels that she is much better looking than the two younger sisters of the second uncle's family, and even compared to Mai Xiaoyuan.
I guess I agreed! Mai Liu's heart is also bottomless, but she knows that the daughter-in-law of the second son's family has the final say, who is willing to take out good things, anyway, she will not give gifts with her own things.
Mai Liu, who lives with his eldest son, complained and vented his dissatisfaction after his eldest daughter-in-law came back yesterday, and he didn't settle down until the evening. She had to mention it as a last resort, otherwise she might have thought about her own things, this daughter-in-law has been staring at the clothes material her granddaughter gave her for not a day or two.
Shan Cuihua went home in a huff, Mai Yonghe and Mai Yonghai didn't want to become a punching bag, so they made an excuse and ran away, Mai Xiaofang was cooking dinner, re-stewed the remaining chicken with mushrooms, soaked some dried vegetables to stew the pork, and steamed the mixed noodles steamed buns.
Mai Xiaohuan is mixing cold vegetables with celery leaves and radish skins sent by her eldest sister, as well as pickled dried wild vegetables. Mai Xiaofang saw that they were all worthless, and no one used them so she tinkered with them, thinking that she was idle and bored to play casually!
Shan Cuihua entered the courtyard and glanced at the two daughters, and saw that dinner was almost ready, so she went directly into the back room. Maiwan sighed and turned to look at the cows and sheep, not paying attention to them all afternoon, and not knowing if they were hungry.
Mother must be having an awkward relationship with someone, otherwise, when you enter the yard, you will either carry a broom or a dustpan, is this a strike today? Mai Xiaofang wanted to ask what happened, but Mai Xiaohuan shook her head and stopped her. Now going to the house is equivalent to going to the door to find and be scolded, it is better to stay away from the old lady, and it will be estimated that her anger will be almost gone, and it is not too late to go again.
"What did you get this?" Mai Xiaofang used chopsticks to pull up the pot that her sister was busy with just now, not to mention the colorful and green monsters, can you eat this? In the past, the leaves of chopped vegetables were directly fed to chickens and ducks, and these things are rarely eaten in the current conditions of the family.
It's a pity that the seasoning is not complete, Mai Xiaohuan picked up a piece of radish skin with chopsticks and sent it into the second sister's mouth, crispy, slightly spicy, and a little refreshing, and it tastes good! Mai Xiaofang took the chopsticks from her sister's hand and took a mouthful of dried wild vegetables by herself, chewy and tenacious, she patted her sister's shoulder and praised: "Yes, you have played new tricks, worthy of praise." β
"Second sister, just tell me how to eat!" The craftsmanship is not as good as oneself and he still refuses to admit it, and after a while, he must win the right to cook and cook meals for his own appetite, so that his body can get better faster.
At dinner, Shan Cuihua's anger had almost disappeared, and she remembered the eldest daughter's proposal, and as soon as she finished speaking, the little sisters refused together.
Mai Xiaofang said that she wanted to be a maid, but there was no door, and the eldest sister didn't have any good intentions at all, she just didn't want to see herself live a comfortable life. Mai Xiaohuan ate calmly, she knew that her mother was just talking, with her small body, even if the family was willing to send it, someone had to be willing to accept it!
