Chapter 35: Pondering and Fearing
As soon as the clan elder came in, Mu Cha went to say hello as a junior, and instructed Mu Qiaoming to move the chairs in the ancestral hall one by one and help the clan elder sit down.
Mu Jiu and Mu Hongli stepped forward to help diligently, and greeted every clan elder very seriously.
When the clan elder came in, Mrs. Mu finally stopped for a while.
The patriarch's face is a little better.
After the clan elder sat down, Mu Cha gave Mu Jiu a look.
Mu Jiu was as good as a stream, walked to the most respected clan elder and knelt down, and said obediently, "Hello grandpa!" ”
"Hmm." The patriarch had a faint attitude.
In the eyes of these old people, only boys are the future of the Mu family, and girls will eventually marry into other people's families.
Mu Jiu is not stupid, he can see from the attitude of the clan elder that he doesn't like her, and he is not in a hurry, so he said calmly, "Jiu'er knows that he shouldn't make trouble here, but my grandfather slandered my mother for not abiding by women's morals, Jiu'er, as a mother's child, should stand up and speak for her mother."
Mother's personality is obvious to all, if she is slandered like this, she will be beaten, and it will be spread out in the future, so what do those aunts and aunts in the village think?
If it spreads a little further, everyone knows that a good daughter is innocently beaten, no one in the clan says a word of justice, no one helps, who dares to marry his daughter to our Mu family? ”
At first, the clan elder was so contemptuous that he didn't need to look at Mu Jiu squarely, but when he heard the last few words, he became serious, and after exchanging glances with several other clan elders, he slowly spoke, "Mu Rongguang, you are also an old man in the clan, in a few years, you can also sit in the position of the clan elder, you say." ”
The implication is to question Mu Jiu's words.
Without waiting for Mu Rongguang to speak, Mrs. Mu howled first, "She contradicted her husband, and her husband disobeyed his orders, isn't this a disobedience to women's morals!" ”
Mu Rongguang just wanted to find a hole to get into, and dragged Mrs. Mu behind him fiercely, accompanied by a smiling face, "I'm sorry for the uncles, it's my fault, I couldn't manage her well."
In fact, we didn't mean to, it was Li Xiaotao who invited herself to go to court, and my second child was angry before he moved. ”
Excuse yourself?
Everyone's faces changed.
I've seen people who are afraid of being suspended, but it's the first time I've heard someone say that they want to be invited to leave the church!
Mu Jiu lowered his head and evoked a sneer from an angle that no one could see, fleeting.
The words of self-invitation to leave the court came out of her mouth, and from Mu Rongguang's mouth, the effect was two extremes.
She said it as a threat and in a way that was extreme.
But when Mu Rongguang said it, people couldn't help but wonder what the Mu Rongguang family had done to make a weak woman who would rather invite herself to the court than stay any longer!
Mu Jiu and Li Xiaotao chose to be silent in front of outsiders, in the final analysis, in order to take care of the last face of Mu Rongguang's family, but Mu Rongguang stood up and shouted grievances, no matter how you look at it, it's hypocritical!
The contemptuous eyes fell on Mu Rongguang, and he only felt that his face had been lost in his life.
For the sake of face, he had to come out and explain, "Things are not what your uncles imagined. ”
Mucha, "Oh? How do you know what the uncles are thinking? ”
Mu Rongguang lowered his head and explained stubbornly, "Here's the thing, early this morning, Li Banxian arrived at Mujia Village and said that my Jiu'er will suck the blessings of my mother's family dry in her mother's house, in order to prevent the family from being harmed by her, as the head of the family, I have no choice but to drive her away!"
But the second family doesn't understand the difficulties of an old man, so he has to talk back to our old man for a scourge, and my second family is also filial, and she hit her on impulse. ”
Seeing that several clan elders easily believed in Mu Rongguang, Mu Jiu stood up, the corners of his lips slightly hooked, outlining a desperate sneer.
"Why didn't Grandpa say it, such a big family, everyone is sitting at home waiting for food, and the farm work is done by us in the second room, and we go home to do housework after we finish it.
The family eats rice, and the people in our second room eat bran mixed with broken rice!
Uncle reads, aunt doesn't read! It's understandable that my father is a man doing heavy work, but my mother is a woman, so why is my mother's work more tiring than other men in the family!
Freezing three feet is not a day's cold, your unfairness to our second room is not accumulated over the years, so many years of accumulation of abuse of our second room people, have we said a word of complaint?
It's obviously an ugly thing done by Mu Liufu, you have to push Jiu'er out, if Jiu'er hadn't been ruthless and proved his innocence with death and won the pity of the Bodhisattva, I'm afraid that our second room has been ruined.
If that happens, grandpa is not afraid to dream back at midnight, Jiu'er comes back and asks why you are so eccentric?
Or is there a reason why grandpa is so partial, or rather, my dad is not your son at all, and you have to treat it differently like this!
I even suspect that you're deliberately looking for something to get me out! ”
Mu Jiu ignored Mu Rongguang's ugly face and finished the complaints of the original owner over the years in one breath.
At first, she just said it casually, but she found that when she questioned whether Mu Qiaoyong was Mu Rongguang's son, a trace of panic flashed on Mu Rongguang's face.
Could it be that she said that Mu Qiaoyong is really not his son?
It's scary to think about!
Although Mu Rongguang is stingy, he has always been willing to spend money in cultivating children to read, but in the second room, he is not only reluctant to spend money, but also eager to squeeze out the value of everyone in the second room!
Mu Qiaoyong was questioned and became angry, "Don't talk nonsense! How could the dick not be my son! What reason do I have to deliberately find trouble, I'm not familiar with Li Banxian! ”
"Then why don't you let him study, like the eldest uncle and the third uncle! Then why don't you let Manulife go to school at the age of six, like the rest of your grandchildren! Mu Jiu jumped over Li Banxian's stubble.
"It's not that the second child is stupid and can't read well, I'm not worried that Manulife will be like him."
Make it up, keep it up!
Mu Cha did not hesitate to expose Mu Rongguang's lies, "I think back then, my eldest brother was teaching in a private school, when you sent the third child, I asked you why you didn't send the second child first, you said that the second child thinks that his qualifications are dull, not the material for reading, and now it seems that what qualifications are dull, it is clear that you are reluctant to spend money to read for the second child!" ”
Mu Rongguang forgot that there was such a stubble, and he refused to admit it, "My three sons have all been enlightened by me at home, who is smart, and who is not the material for reading, I can't see it?" ”
"That's just your one-sided words, you don't give the second child a chance, how do you know that he can't do it!"
"In short, this is my family matter, I Mu Rongguang have read books, how can I do things that are biased and abuse my juniors!"
Mu Cha and Mu Rongguang have a sentence for you, a sentence for me, seeing that the topic is far away, Mu Jiu coughed and asked in a low voice, "Grandpa Lizheng, can you ask someone to help me find Lin Langzhong, my mother's hand must be very painful." ”
Saying that Cao Cao Cao arrived, Lin Langzhong stood outside the door and shouted, "It's inconvenient for the old man to enter your Mu ancestral hall, Jiu'er will let you come out, and the old man will take a look." ”
"Thank you, Grandpa Lin!" Mu Jiu replied softly outside the door, and then helped Li Xiaotao to walk out.
In fact, she had already seen that Li Xiaotao was fine, otherwise she would rather think of other ways than delay the best treatment time by Li Xiaotao.
Lin Langzhong intended to help her, and after looking at Li Xiaotao, he squeezed his eyes at Mu Jiu and sighed heavily, "What a sin!" ”
Mu Jiu, "......"
There is an indescribable emotion!
Mu Rongguang, who came out with him, panicked, as soon as he said that he would not abuse his juniors, Li Xiaotao was seriously injured, who would believe him!
felt that everyone's eyes were full of contempt, and Mu Rongguang was angry.
At this time, Mrs. Mu jumped out, "Please go to the court, then call the second child and leave her!" ”
Mu Jiu was about to say something, but Lin Langzhong took the lead, "Mrs. Mu, you don't want to pay Jiu'er's medical expenses!" ”
was poked in the center, and Mrs. Mu was rarely embarrassed, but all of a sudden, she jumped up, "Don't talk nonsense!" She herself wants to invite herself to the court, and I will fulfill her! ”
"Hehe......"
"Don't believe it, lest they say we're abusing them!"
"Hehe......"
But the more Mrs. Mu spoke, the more unfriendly the gaze that fell on her became.
Unable to justify herself, Mrs. Mu finally realized that something was wrong and retreated to Mu Rongguang's side.
Mu Rongguang put on a physically and mentally exhausted appearance and sighed long, "Hey...... Woe to the family! Woe to the family! ”
is ambiguous, and I don't know if it's Mrs. Mu or Mu Jiu, in short, a victim posture.
Mu Rongguang turned to Lin Langzhong again, and said, "Trouble Lin Langzhong, please use the best medicine, and I will pay for the medical expenses." ”
Mrs. Mu still wanted to jump out, but was glared at by Mu Rongguang and pressed down.
After Lin Langzhong pondered, he said, "Mu Xiucai has thought about it, and he will use the best medicine to get ten taels of silver." ”
Mu Rongguang was stunned, and at the moment he was stunned, Mrs. Mu jumped out and howled in a thin voice, "Ten taels!" Why don't you grab it! ”
Lin Langzhong flicked his sleeves angrily, "Please speak well, you are in charge of the best medicine, and I didn't say it, ten taels or a fraction of the number for you." ”
After speaking, he didn't look at Mrs. Mu, but looked directly at Mu Rongguang, "Mu Xiucai, who is in charge of your family?" ”
Mu Rongguang couldn't hold his face, "Naturally, it's an old man!" ”
Lin Langzhong snorted disdainfully, "Is it cured or not?" Who pays for the medicine! ”
Mu Rongguang: "Can you use cheaper medicine, I ......"
"Come on, to put it mildly, it's just that you are reluctant to give the second family treatment, and you say that you are not partial, you keep this to coax yourself." Lin Langzhong made a gesture and began to collect the medicine box, then cleaned it up and said, "Qiao Yong's daughter-in-law, don't blame me for being ruthless as a barefoot Langzhong.
There are some medicines that we don't have in this place, I have to go to the pharmacist to buy them, I have to spend money, and now your family is reluctant to spend money, I can only give you some cheap medicines, as for whether the arm can grow well in the future, then it can only be left to fate! ”
Mu Jiu didn't understand why Lin Langzhong would help her so much, but she remembered today's kindness, and if he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely repay him.
