Chapter 49: Awakening

This is the relatives he has always maintained, for them, he made his daughter-in-law sad, and his children suffered with it. How does it end up? The mother accidentally injured her niece, but asked her family to compensate.

"Xiao Huanniang, let's go home and make a reunion dinner by ourselves." Mai Wang shouted lonely, the pension money and food that should be given have been given by himself, since the daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law are so unpopular, why stay?

After Wu checked the wound on his daughter's face, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately, he was only cut by the tip of the scissors, the side of the ear was scratched heavier, and the hair should not be able to see the scar. She also hates her mother-in-law, but she also knows that it is best to put this matter on the second family, and only in this way can she get some compensation.

If you want to leave, you have to pay for the silver, Wu let go of Mai Xiaoling and went over to block the door, Mai Xing, his son and Mai Quan's family all stood by and watched, and none of them stood up and said a fair word.

Shan Cuihua hooked the corners of her mouth disdainfully, she was not in a hurry to speak, just took this opportunity to let her husband take a good look at the faces of these so-called relatives.

Mai Xiaohuan grew small, and took advantage of people's inattention, squeezed between the two elder brothers and the second sister, and whispered to them: "No matter who goes out for a while, hurry up and find the village chief." ”

The three of them nodded in understanding, the village chief would definitely not mess with grandma and aunt.

Mai Wan can't see women in general, and looks forward to the eldest brother calling people away and letting his family leave. But the faces next to him that were either indifferent, or waiting to see a good show, pierced his heart deeply, and at this moment he really understood who was worthy of putting it in his heart.

He exhaled heavily, turned around and kowtowed to Liu's three times, beckoned his daughter-in-law and a few children to kowtow to her old man, and bowed to the New Year in advance: "Mother, don't be angry for the New Year, we won't come to make you unhappy when we don't pay pension money and food in the future." I don't compare the eldest brother and the third brother with you, in the future, our family will give you an extra silver tael every year, Xiao Huanniang, you say no. ”

Shan Cuihua nodded happily, of course she didn't object, she should take a tael of silver to buy a stable life.

"Yo! The second family is so rich, why do they take an extra tael of silver! Those are all things in the future, did the second brother and sister pay our Xiaoling's money to see the doctor first, in case there is a scar, it will be bad. Of course, Wu hopes that there is no flaw on his daughter's face, and he is reluctant to let her go to the ground for so many years, and he is reluctant to let her cook all day long, so he wants to raise her as a young lady, and he will fight for himself in the future and find a rich son-in-law.

Hearing her husband's words, Shan Cuihua was already content, she asked Wu: "Sister-in-law opens her mouth and closes her mouth to let us take the medicine fee, I just want to ask, did someone in my family hurt Xiaoling, or who quarreled with her, even if you want to let go, you have to have a reason for the past!" ”

Wu looked at her mother-in-law and asked the Mai Wan family to pay for the medicine, but her old man proposed it first.

Mai Liu's heart said that the cost of this medicine can only be paid by the second son's family, and the old family and children are injured, so they can't let them take this money by themselves! The third family is hungry and full for dinner, where is the spare money to fill this hole. Even if you count it, only the second son, who has the most comfortable life, is the most suitable to carry this pot for himself.

Before she could give an order, Mai Xiaoling cried and said: "I became like this, it is you two who are harmful, if you don't make grandma angry, how can grandma throw things; If you hadn't gotten out of the way, would my face hurt? Go home now, and bring me all the clothes and silk flowers, and the books. ”

"Haha...... Haha......" Mai Xiaofang pointed at Mai Xiaoling and smiled for a while before saying, "What do you want books for?" It's really funny to make a fire or a decoration, I don't know a single big word, and I still want a book. ”

"You...... Don't you know a word? What face to laugh at me. ”

Mai Xiaofang stopped laughing and told her seriously that because she knew that it was not the material for reading, she had never had the idea of those books. O man! Be clear about your own pounds, and don't always worry about other people's things.

Wu doesn't like to listen to this, in her eyes, her daughter is the best thing, like Sister Mai Xiaofang, who looks like a stinky girl who has no luck at first glance and cannot be productive in her life, is not worthy of satin clothes to wear, and not worthy of books to read. Xiaoling is illiterate, can the two of them recognize it, phew!

"What's the noise, let's talk about the cost of medicine first." The eldest granddaughter still has something to worry about the two girls, it seems that the injury is not serious, Mai Liu's heart fell to the ground, hoping that the second family will lose some money quickly, and this matter is the best.

"Xiao Huanniang, are you in there?" Aunt Huaihua, a neighbor of Mai Wang's family, stood in the yard and shouted.

Mai Xiaofang ran to the window and said outside: "Auntie, what are you looking for my mother?" ”

Aunt Huaihua told Mai Xiaofang to ask someone from their family to go to the village chief's house to receive the New Year's goods.

"Trouble Aunt Huaihua told the village chief that we can't go, and the eldest lady won't let us go out at all." Mai Xiaohuan also answered, she was worried that no one would help pass the message! Aunt Huaihua came too timely.

Wu was so frightened by Mai Xiaohuan's words that he couldn't care about blocking the door, ran out and grabbed Aunt Huaihua's arm, and said with a smile: "Don't listen to children's nonsense, how can I not let them go out!" Nothing. ”

Mai Xiaohuan took this opportunity to pick up the second sister and ran out, she shouted loudly as she ran: "Father, mother, let's go to the village chief's house first, and you will come later!" ”

The people in the house were silent, it seemed that the money would not be done, and if the girl complained in front of the village chief, her family would have to suffer a lesson even if she was not kicked out of Shaxi Village. Mai Liushi coldly warned Mai Wang and his family that they owed the medicine fee first, and hurried to catch up with the two girls in front of them, so as not to let them talk nonsense in front of the village chief.

Wu didn't forget to shout behind after the Mai Wan family walked out, if they couldn't get the money now, they would have to charge interest, and they really didn't have money to pay off their debts. It's a pity that the spit she shouted was flying all over the sky, and no one who walked out of the yard was willing to respond.

When he arrived at the village chief's house, Mai Xiaohuan figured out where the so-called New Year's goods came from. It turned out that it was given to Mai Xiaohuan's family by the county order, and the village chief did not come back with the person who delivered the New Year's goods in the county. As a result, his daughter-in-law misunderstood that the things belonged to her own family, and the things that should have been divided were divided, and what should have been done was made, and when the village chief returned home, not many things were complete.

Where did the village chief dare to be greedy for the things ordered by the county, so he had to put them back together, and today he finally put things together. went to Mai Xiaohuan's house to find someone to receive the New Year's goods, but they were not there, so I had to let Aunt Huaihua run to give a notice.

Looking at the pork unloaded into small pieces and the bags of white rice that were obviously missing a lot of flour, Mai Xiaohuan knew that the things had been passed over by the village chief's daughter-in-law. She pretended not to see anything unusual, first praised the county order as the best parent official, and then thanked Pan Mingqiu. And said very generously that the things were given to their family, and they only hoped that after he and his second sister went to Qingcheng County, the village chief would take care of his own family.

"You're going to the county guard again." Pan Mingqiu asked enviously, he has been to the county seat as far as he can, these two girls are blessed, how long have they been back, and they can go out to open their eyes again.

Mai Xiaohuan only said that he would stay longer this time, and he would trouble the village chief to take more care of his father and mother after he left.

"Xiao Huan, you can rest assured to go to the county guard mansion to live! We'll take care of your home. The village chief's daughter-in-law poured things back with joy, and praised Mai Xiaohuan in her heart for being able to do things, and she had eyes.

When the sisters walked back, Mai Xiaofang kept complaining about why her sister gave everything to the village chief's house.

Mai Xiaohuan smiled and said nothing, and only after returning home did he tell the reason: "Those things have been touched by the village chief's family, if we force them back, they will definitely not be happy if they don't say it." Besides, the eldest lady has been staring at us! She can make you bring the rice noodles home! Instead of being angry with her, it is better to send the village chief's family directly for personal favors, so that he can take care of the family more in the future! ”

Oh, yes! Looking at the appearance of the two girls, I can't take all the things in my house for myself! Mai Wan solemnly apologized to his daughter-in-law and two daughters, and promised that he would not be confused again in the future. Not only is the daughter-in-law and children farther away from the eldest brother's house, but he will no longer be as stupid as before, and it is the right thing to live his own life to marry his two sons and save a dowry for his daughter.

It's not easy! Dad finally got his senses, and everyone in the family was happy that he could have such an awareness. Shan Cuihua took the opportunity to teach her sons that they must be virtuous when marrying a daughter-in-law, and that everything is prosperous in the family and talent.

The mother and the couple went to make a reunion dinner together, Shan Cuihua had the strength to be responsible for making noodles, Mai Xiaofang washed vegetables, cut vegetables, lit a fire, Mai Xiaohuan tied up her hair, tied an apron, braised fish, sweet and sour pork ribs, shredded sweet potatoes, cold vegetables, mushroom stewed chicken, meatball soup...... A full ten dishes are made in just over an hour.

Mai Yonghai rubbed his hands and exclaimed: "Xiao Huan's craftsmanship is getting better and better, you are gone, what if I am greedy?" Or you can ask the county lord if he still has a small house where he lives, and it's okay if he doesn't pay for it, as long as he can often eat the dishes made by Xiao Huan. ”

Shan Cuihua took off one of her shoes and smashed it, scolding with a smile in her mouth: "You don't have to follow Xiao Huan to Qingcheng County, get out of the house now!" I don't think my cooking tastes good, right? I want to see if you can eat after Xiao Huan leaves. ”

Mai Wan looked at the family members who were fighting together, and showed a smile from the bottom of his heart, when they were happy here, Mai Xing's family almost didn't fight because of the disappeared meat and fish on the reunion dinner table.

Mai Liu accused the eldest daughter-in-law of hiding her secrets and wanted to rummage in her house, how dare Wu let her go! I had to swear that I really didn't take it, and I also falsely accused Mai Xiaohuan and the sisters of taking it away.
