(62) Raise the knife to the mother-in-law

Zhang Qingting said so. has her own reason, "Don't blame me for saying more, did you offend people and make enemies at that time, or why did you recruit someone to kidnap your son?" It stands to reason that if it is an ordinary robber, if they get money, they will be released, why do these people have to be killed after they get money? Did you report to the police later? Have you caught this gang of thieves? If you don't care about the people who really killed your son and forced your daughter-in-law to die, why will they only bully your little granddaughter? ”

"Who said I didn't report to the police?" Old man Fang roared angrily, lifted the quilt and turned over and sat up, his face full of grief and indignation, "But what's the use of reporting to the official?" As soon as I knew that Tianguan was kidnapped, I went to find the yamen to arrest him, and they accepted it, but when I turned around, those robbers cut off a finger of Tianguan and sent it back! What can I do? I had to sell all my belongings and exchange them for gold and silver. But they, they're still ......"

Thinking of the past, Old Man Fang burst into tears, "I was sick at the time, and I wasn't old and confused!" It's a fatal thing. How can you not report to the official? But the servants in the yamen knew that I had no money, so they began to push back, and no one was willing to take on the case. Pity my heavenly official, he only sent a head back, and he didn't even know where the corpse capital was? ”

This is truly miserable! Zhang Qingting also had a little sadness on his face when he heard this, but he said affirmatively, "Then it should be that you have offended some powerful person!" Otherwise, how could the robbers know about the letter as soon as they reported to the official? Think about it again. ”

"I don't know!" Old Man Fang was heartbroken when he thought of this, "What if you know it?" Is my little cook still capable of bringing down those big masters? ”

Zhang Qingting suddenly understood, "So you took advantage of your illness to return to the countryside?" ”

Old Man Fang neither admitted it, but he also did not deny it.

Zhang Qingting revealed the past and only said now, "Since you are such a smart person, why can't you figure it out?" Since it was your apprentice and the woman who entered the door, there was Xiangshi who said nonsense about what kind of broom star your granddaughter was, why did you believe it? ”

Old man Fang was still stiff-mouthed, "But it is true that with her, our family is so unlucky!" ”

Zhang Qingting shook his head, "Everything has a cause before it has an effect, you don't go to investigate the antecedent, but you just blame the evil result, it is inevitably biased." Old man Fang, let me just tell you this, your granddaughter is your son's biological flesh and blood, and she is also your only relative in this world. What are you going to do to her. No one else can control it. But think about it, will your son of the earth be at ease? When you die, even if you can smoothly enter the earth, what if you leave her alone? Isn't it a lonely life of being bullied? No matter how you scold her for being a broom star, she is always surnamed Fang, and outsiders only know that it is the granddaughter of your old Fang family who is being bullied outside, even if you want to lose it, it is also the face of your old Fang family! ”

Old Man Fang was slightly moved, and turned to ignore her.

Zhang Qingting continued, "I think your son should have been happily looking forward to the arrival of this child back then, right?" Even if it's a girl, he must be as painful as a baby. If he was really in heaven and knew that his daughter was beaten and cursed by his father every day, what should he think in his heart? Can he be at peace under the Nine Springs? ”

"You said that the girl is a foreign surname and can't bear your family's incense, so there are many such people in this world, don't you recruit a grandson-in-law to come to the door?"

"Yes, I admit that I have my own selfish motives. I want you to cheer up and do business with me! But don't worry, I don't want your formula, I just want you to be the master chef. If you're afraid of the secret recipe leaking out. I prepared it myself, ground it into powder, and then I can use it! I can leave the kitchen completely in your hands, and you can just make the things and take them out and sell them to me. It's supposed to work, right? If you still don't feel at ease, we can make an agreement in black and white, if I break the rules, we will break up, or you can go to the official mansion to sue me! ”

"Old man Fang, you heard it yourself just now, the medicine you take is not cheap, and it costs a tael of silver a month. It's okay for me to give you this first time, but after a long time, why should I provide it for you? ”

"You, even if you don't think about your granddaughter, you have to save two dollars for yourself to take medicine to prevent old age, don't you? I see there's a broken plaque of yours outside, I think it's also how many years of hard work you've earned it, right? Can you really bear to take it to the coffin? Who in the world will remember that there was once such a person as you? You also take a good look in the mirror when you have time, I think you have also had a time when you have a scene, and then look at you now, including your granddaughter, it is not much different from the flower child on the street, if you meet an acquaintance, are you embarrassed? ”

"If you want to continue to live like this, no one can stop you. But you really have to think about it, if you are so angry one day, how will you explain to your son when you see him? ”

Zhang Qingting said everything that should be said in one breath, and stood up at this time, "That's all I say, do you like to listen to it or not!" Don't worry, I'll never come to your house again. Don't dislike this money, it's a good thing for me to do to the end. Keep it for your grandparents and grandchildren. ”

She put down a few dozen pennies, "You think clearly, let your granddaughter come to me." My family lives on the west side of the market, Zhao Xiucai's house, you can inquire about it. Again! In the last sentence, everything should be done in moderation. If you really hate that granddaughter, just sell it to me! I like that little girl so much, I won't treat her badly! That's it, it's over, I'm leaving! ”

Miss Zhang only left the moon cakes, and really took out the two jars of wine.

Outside the door, the little girl squatted by the door, with a teapot and a cup beside her, with tears on her face.

Zhang Qingting patted her head, pulled her up, wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, and smiled gently, "Little sister, my sister taught you a word, people will insult themselves, and then people will insult them." It's up to you what star you are! If you really can't stay in this family, come to my sister. She whispered. I just said that what is not sold is to coax your grandfather to play! But if you really want to come to me, you have to follow me and learn to do things seriously! ”

Miss Xiaofang choked up and couldn't say a word, Zhang Qingting stuffed the handkerchief into her hand and flew away.

Miss Xiaofang couldn't see her figure all the time, and then turned her head and came in.

Old man Fang was covered with a quilt, and he was in tears. Looking back on most of this bumpy life, my heart is really sour. Today, it was pierced by Zhang Qingting, and it was like the Yellow River bursting its embankment, flooding for thousands of miles.

He is not a naturally ignorant person who can be the best in every industry. There are still some advantages. It's just that losing his son in old age is really a fatal blow to him, so he has to escape the bad luck of life in wine.

If you die today, you will be liberated. But Zhang Qingting came and shook him awake. How will we live in the days to come? He couldn't help but think deeply.

The little granddaughter couldn't see his movements, put down the kettle, and went out quietly.

Sitting in the courtyard in a daze, Zhang Qingting's words kept echoing in her ears, "What star you are, it's up to you to decide!" ”

Can there be such a way of living in life?

Zhang Qingting tossed this time, it was too late to get home, and when he entered the door, he saw Zhao Yulan's eyes red to open the door.

"What's going on?"

Zhao Yulan shook her head silently, bolted the door and went to work in the kitchen again.

Zhang Qingting was surprised in his heart, he didn't see anyone when he returned to the room, the front yard was quiet, and even Zhao Chengcai didn't come back.

took the teapot to the kitchen to find boiling water, Zhao Yulan was secretly wiping her tears on the stove!

Zhang Qingting was curious, but he didn't ask directly, only smiled, "It's really fragrant, what did you do?" ”

Zhao Yulan hurriedly wiped her tears and turned around, with a trilling voice in her voice, and lifted the lid of the crockpot to show her, "Last time...... Last time, sister-in-law, you brought a rabbit leg back, didn't everyone say it was delicious? I just marinated a little pig's head meat, pig intestine and other water or something, anyway, it's cheap and quite tasty. It's just that you don't dislike it, sister-in-law. ”

Zhang Qingting pursed his lips and chuckled, "I don't have to worry about your craftsmanship!" Even if I don't like to eat, you can eat if you like it! Hey, have you cleaned up this duck? ”

"Not yet! The mother said that she would eat it tomorrow and kill a chicken, and the chicken, duck and fish would be complete. ”

Zhang Qingting nodded, "Then you can tell me what you are going to do?" ”

"The chicken is stewed in soup, the duck I plan to burn taro and chestnuts, and the fish is sweet and sour. This piece of belly is still braised with some dried beans, everyone loves to eat it. ”

Zhang Qingting shook his head, "The smell is too strong!" What's more, you still have braised vegetables here, and there are three dishes that are all burned, and there are some repetitions. ”

"What do you say, sister-in-law?"

Although Zhang Qingting is not good at cooking, he is good at eating, and after thinking about it, he said, "Chicken is still stewed soup!" Roasted chestnut taro with meat, will you make steamed fish? That duck can be made into a saltwater duck. ”

Zhao Yulan said for a while, her mood calmed down a lot, and now her mind turned to cooking, and she returned to normal.

The first two dishes are fine, "It's just that if this steamed fish is not done well, it will be fishy, how to make salted duck, I haven't heard of it?" ”

Zhang Qingting immediately told her about the recipe of this dish, and when Zhao Yulan heard it, then this duck had to be cleaned up today.

"It sounds like it's not that hard, but what if I mess it up?"

"Ahem! What's in it? If you smash it, you will smash it! Zhang Qingting waved his hand very generously, "Just do it next time." ”

"Mother...... Mother will scold. ”

"It's okay! There I am! Speaking of which, Zhang Qingting was also a little hungry for the food in his hometown, urging her to get it.

Zhao Yulan thought about it, this is the money from her sister-in-law. Make up your mind and do it!

The duck was washed and plucked, and the blood was removed, and the internal organs of the duck were not wanted, and after cleaning, they were thrown into the crockpot and marinated together. The duck blood condensed on a large plate, Zhang Qingting suddenly remembered the duck blood sauerkraut vermicelli soup in his hometown, and also explained it to her, Zhao Yulan smiled and said, "I know this, we call it chowder noodle soup here, and it is not as exquisite as sister-in-law you said." ”

She searched for a long time and found a handful of fans at home. Zhang Qingting smiled, "This soup is enough!" If there is more, it will not be drinking soup, but eating vermicelli. ”

Zhao Yulan grinded peppercorns, star anise and other spices and salt to fry them together, smeared the duck inside and out, and hung it in a cool and ventilated place.

Zhang Qingting also said, next time, I will buy a gauze bag and come back, cover it, and it will be cleaner.

Seeing that she was in a good mood, Zhao Yulan suddenly smiled and asked, "Sister-in-law, how do you know how to eat so much?" Yesterday's ribs were also quite special. ”

Zhang Qingting avoided the edge and asked rhetorically, "Is it delicious?" ”

Zhao Yulan nodded, "I like it very much, but my mother thinks it's too light, so I don't eat it, it's better to burn it with some beans or something, it's more and more than enough!" Later, my brother said that my mother was that violent thing, and I didn't know how to appreciate it! ”

Destroying the heavens and harming the people. This is an apt description of Zhao Wang's family. Zhang Qingting covered his mouth and chuckled, "I forgot to explain to you yesterday that the ribs should only be made of the middle ribs, and the two bones should be discarded." If she did, your mother wouldn't know how to jump to her feet! ”

Zhao Yulan was stunned for a moment, "Then I'm going to jump my feet, it's too wasteful." ”

Zhang Qingting said, "Wouldn't it be nice if you threw that lot into any soup and stewed it?" ”

Zhao Yulan nodded and said with a smile, "Then sister-in-law, you will teach me more!" ”

As soon as the words fell, someone at the door suddenly said in a strange way, "What do you want to learn from your sister-in-law?" Don't learn well, learn some crooked ways! ”

is so mean, who else is there besides Zhao Wang's family? Seeing her husk, I thought that she had just come back from the backyard to fetch water.

Zhao Yulan's face stiffened in fright, "Mother......"

Zhang Qingting thought to himself, what am I provoking you again, do you have to pick your nose and eyes all day long? At that moment, he replied coldly, "Yo! I don't know what my daughter-in-law has done to offend your old man, please advise! ”

"Humph! Then you have more places to offend! I can't count them on ten fingers, it's just that your Zhang family is bad for your own, don't bring our family to your burden! I don't know what unsightly things are hidden in your box, but don't take it out to abduct and harm the children of the Zhao family! ”

Zhang Qingting heard this differently than in the past, as if there was some story in it. But this stick overturned a boatload of people, and it was not something she could bear, and her face turned cold at the moment, "If our Zhang family is not good, then why do you have to work hard to recruit our family?" Now that you've come in, what's the matter, and now you're shooting yourself in the foot? So why did you bother in the first place? ”

Zhao Wangshi stared at Zhang Qingting angrily, only this matter was a big hatred in her heart, but she couldn't find the words to refute it.

"Mother! Sister-in-law! You...... Don't make any noise! Zhao Yulan cowardly wanted to persuade her, but she was burned at once.

Zhao Wangshi caught a glimpse of the duck hanging from the beam of the house, as well as the duck blood on the plate, and was furious at the moment, rushed forward and grabbed his daughter's arm, twisting it vigorously, "Dead girl!" Didn't the old lady tell you to eat this duck tomorrow? Can't wait? Do you have to do it today, do you eat it and rush to reincarnation! ”

Zhao Yulan couldn't bear the pain, and tears fell at the moment, "Mother! That's not true! It was the sister-in-law who said a new method, and she cleaned it up and ate it tomorrow! ”

"If you are told to do it, you will do it! If the old lady doesn't let you do it, why don't you listen? ”

Zhang Qingting was annoyed, who is this chicken killer for? "I asked her to do it, what's wrong? Come to me if you're not convinced! ”

"How dare I teach you? Then you have to say, these things are all bought with your money, you can eat as much as you like, who cares? ”

"Why do you know why you're embarrassed?"

"I can't control what you want to do with the things you bought, but why should you ask me to teach my own daughter? She didn't listen to her mother, so I hit what! I'll fight again! I'll beat her to death, and I won't let her learn badly! ”

This simply makes no sense! Zhang Qingting was so angry that his face turned white, how could he meet such an unreasonable parent in the past two days?

My heart was soaring, and I remembered that in the past in Nankang country, the beating she received when she was a child is still fresh in her memory.

At that time, I was only seven or eight years old, and once I was playful, and the little girl who was waiting for me climbed back to the tree, and as a result, I immediately reported to my mother that I was caught, and it was a good fight anyway.

At that time, my mother knelt on the ground and cried and pleaded, but my mother also said coldly, "Since she calls me mother, I will discipline me well." Even if you are killed, it is better than raising a wild girl who doesn't understand the rules! Call me! ”

In the end, Zhang Qingting was beaten unconscious, and when she woke up, her mother's child who had just been in the womb for more than a month was gone. only said that he accidentally shed it, but Zhang Qingting knew that it was his mother who exchanged her life for it.

Almost even thinking about it, Zhang
