58. Remorse in your heart

What happened to the Li family was just one of the insignificant aftermaths of the Xie family's enrichment.

The fact that the Xie family grows shed vegetables to make money is like throwing a stone into the calm water, the ripples are constantly rippling, and the water surface reacts differently around the center, and the closer the relationship, the ripples are more powerful; The relationship is far away, and the aftermath of the ripples is also slightly affected.

And the Xie family is running to make a lot of money by themselves, where can they have time to pay attention to other people? Because of the various reactions caused by his family's big move, they did not know it.

Liu Shutun, Zhao family.

Because it is a winter idle time, there is no work in the field, the men in the village are idle and panicked, there are such lazy men, wandering around the village all day to play chess, and there are also diligent people who look for work everywhere to do short-term work, two of them dig the ground and build a grass hut on the Xie family Zhuangzi.

When the two of them came back to get a change of clothes, they both said that the Xie family's wages would be settled every three days, and they would give enough money, and they would give ten more than others. Three meals a day to make you full, every day at noon to see meat, never deducted. Hearing this, those diligent men went back to ask the Xie family if they wanted anyone.

Zhao Muchun wanders around the village every day, where does he not know about it? He listened secretly and did not speak, and went home.

When they got home, Wang and Second Sister Zhao were doing needlework in the hall, Wang took the soles of her shoes, and Second Sister Zhao took an embroidered bandage and bowed her head to embroider flowers.

Zhao Muchun sat on the back chair on the left side of the case, calling for tea and water, so that Second Sister Zhao's kitchen couldn't stop running back and forth.

When Second Sister Zhao endured her anger and made him tea, pinched a pinch of his special tea, he said that the water was too hot, complained that Second Sister Zhao wanted to scald him to death, and asked Second Sister Zhao to get another bowl for him.

Second Sister Zhao threw an empty bowl in front of him, snorted coldly in her nose, and only went back to sit down and pick up the needle and thread, and let him call him, but he didn't hear it.

Zhao Muchun blew the end of the tea leaves, glanced at his daughter Second Sister Zhao, and said: "Recently, I heard that the Xie family sells vegetables and digs mountains, and the workers have also invited forty or fifty, not to mention the wages every day, just the workers have to eat two or three taels of silver!"

His family is still arrogant, people only give the hired workers only 30 yuan a day, his family is good, manage three meals a day, have meat every day, and return 40 yuan to the workers.

It's been almost half a month, and it will cost thirty or forty taels of silver! Coupled with eating and drinking every day, I see that I have to go out for fifty or sixty taels of silver in half a month! Seeing that Second Sister Zhao ignored him, but pricked up her ears to listen, Zhao Muchun mocked his daughter and said:

"Second sister, I asked for a hundred taels of silver bride price before the previous child, but you still said that you wanted too much, and you wanted to exchange the bride price for a few sets of gold and silver jewelry as a dowry. I don't think it's much, it's that they don't want to give miles!

That Xie Lao Er looked at the day when he saw that day, he was fascinated by you, and who knew that he would throw you away in a blink of an eye! I see that you are just like this, how good you can be at home every day, shouting and drinking......"

Second Sister Zhao was deliberately supported by him before, and she was already suffocating her stomach, and she was so ridiculed by her father that she couldn't help but be annoyed and ashamed.

I saw her willow eyebrows upside down, apricot eyes wide open, and cherry mouth did not admit defeat at all:

"It's not that you want too much dowry, my sister's thirty taels of silver dowry is the first one in our Liushutun'er, you see that he Xie is a new rich, but he asks for a hundred taels? One hundred and two miles, I can marry ten daughters-in-law!

I have a flea face—so big that people will pay a hundred taels for me as soon as they see me. Daddy, daddy, you have made money and sold your two daughters like cattle for your good son to go to school......"

"Why am I thinking you're an animal? I've worked hard to pull you up, why don't you want more bride price? You sisters, shouldn't you think about your brother? Shouldn't he be sent to school? Even if I die one day, I will have to go bankrupt for him!

Didn't you hear the Taoist priest say? Brother Yaozu is a Wenqu star, and our family's future depends on him......"

Zhao Muchun chattered and talked non-stop when he mentioned his son.

Second Sister Zhao's ears were calloused when she heard this, and her father's words were repeated all day long, and she sneered: "Yes, yes, yes!" Our daughters were raised to sell for money, and sold for money for our sons! I'm cheap by nature, and I'm not as good as your son! ”

"What are you talking to your father? What do you look like as a girl? Zhao Muchun was annoyed and angry by what the second daughter said, stood up suddenly, and scolded her.

"That's what I am, huh? You don't know? You still want to hit me, don't you? Have you beaten me less since I was a child? My son cried and beat me, I was beaten when I wet the bed, I was beaten when I overturned the bowl, and I was angry with me even if I was unhappy!

Why don't you beat me now, look at me when I grow up, I grow up, I can sell it for a few dollars for fear of breaking it? Afraid that I will hold a grudge? You just beat me to death, and see how much you can sell my piece of dead man's rotten meat!" ”

Second Sister Zhao was not to be outdone, she was unforgiving, pinching her waist and scolding.

"It's the other way around, it's the other way around, you're the other way around!" Zhao Mu trembled with anger, Tuan Tuan turned around to find something, and made a gesture to hit Second Sister Zhao.

Second Sister Zhao ignored him, and just went back to the West Wing to lie down.

Zhao Muchun stood in the hall, his angry yellow face turned blue.

Wang, who was next to him with the soles of his shoes, saw it, and opened his mouth to say to him:

"The girl is so old, do you really dare to fight again? If you make a good appearance for a while, how can you get married? She is so good-looking with this face and body, you broke it, and you still want to sell it for a good price?

You don't want to think about it, we are both old, and we can't do our work anymore, and when we enter the grave, who will Yaozu rely on? Didn't rely on their two sisters?

If the girl is a guest, she has to be raised politely, and then sent away politely. Where are you a father? Who is the father who beats his daughter at every turn? Look at the girl, I won't hate you in the future! ”

Zhao Muchun said forcefully: "I'm her Laozi, I can't beat her?" If she wants to hate me, that's unfilial! If she doesn't care about her brother after getting married, she has no conscience! ”

Wang Shi glanced at him coldly and said: "She just has a bad reputation of not being filial and having no conscience, and she doesn't care about the two of us, no matter how Yaozu is, what can you do with her?" ”

Zhao Muchun trembled angrily: "I! I! I'll go to the yamen to sue her! ”

"It's obvious that you can do it by saying two good words, but you want to prick and stab, and the chicken and egg will hit both ends in vain, and you want me to say what is good about you? You're going to be broken with this mouth for the rest of your life! ”

Wang Shi pointed at him with hatred, "My daughter is older, and there are not many days at home in the future, how can you coax her so angrily?" Can you drop a piece of meat? As he spoke, he ignored him.

"I'm going to persuade my daughter!" Wang Shi took the soles of his needlework shoes and turned around to go to the west wing to relieve Second Sister Zhao.

When I opened the door, I saw that the second sister didn't take off her shoes, lying on the bed face in, without saying a word.

"Xianglan'er, are you still angry?" Wang Shi sat on the edge of the kang, with a needle and thread in his hand, "Your father's temper has always been like this, you don't know, let him say a few more words, just don't hear it, why bother to fight him?" It's also angry to provoke yourself. ”

The second sister still didn't say anything, but snorted coldly in her nostrils.

"That time, Mrs. Guo came back and said that the Xie family only paid thirty taels of silver as a dowry, what I mean is to let Mrs. Guo go on another trip and let the Xie family add more. Doing business is the same, you subtract me and add it, and it is enough to add it to fifty taels.

After marrying into his family, the water will flow for a long time, so Second Brother Xie is fascinated by you again, isn't it up to you? Who knew that your father's reluctance came up and said that there would be another family without him, isn't it? Freeze the matter! ”

Wang Shi held the soles of the shoes, and pulled the twine to make a thorn sound, the soles were not big, and they were made for the youngest son Yaozu who had come to have a son.

"Your father's fool, the Xie family is newly rich, can he still look at a girl from a poor family like us, a big family, can he take a fancy to our small family? Even if you fall in love with it, you are only treated as a maid in the room, and you are not even a concubine! You are a big-footed again, and people say that a good wife is a beautiful concubine, even if you are good-looking, which rich family wants to marry a big-footed concubine? Now in the world, a three-inch golden lotus is stronger than appearance! ”

Second Sister Zhao was facing inward, but her ears listened to her mother's words, and she snorted unconvinced when she heard Wang say that the three-inch golden lotus was stronger than her appearance.

"Don't be unconvinced, when I was a child, I spent 30 yuan to ask the village head Granny Jiang to wrap your feet, but you only shouted that it hurt and refused to wrap it, and secretly removed the footwrap in the middle of the night. I feel sorry for you again, I didn't force it, and I didn't wrap it up in the end, so who do you blame? I've grown up as a governor, and it's too late to wrap up. ”

Wang sighed, "Now it's not that you have to marry the Xie family, you are good looking, but you are a big foot, and you are not high or low." The rich family can't look down on the big feet, and the small families can't afford to give colorful gifts, now there is only the newly rich Xie family, the second brother Xie is from the village, he doesn't care about the big feet and small feet, he is fascinated by you again, if he can marry the second brother Xie, it is the best destination. ”

This time, Second Sister Zhao didn't hum, and Wang knew that her heart had loosened.

"I heard that his Xie family has been very busy during this time, and Second Brother Xie goes to the county seat every day to deliver food to the restaurant, and he sends a big car. In the nearby village, there are often scoundrels who steal his food, and Second Brother Xie guards it every day in his vegetable shed. ”

Wang's needlework kept stopping, and he glanced at her daughter secretly, "Ming'er, I'll go to Huluzhuang to buy two cans of oil sauce, and pass by Gangshang Village, you have to have a heart, go with me, and find him to say a few gentle words to love him, don't be afraid that he won't take the bait......"

After that, he glanced at Second Sister Zhao, who was still silent, and got up and went out with the soles of her sewing shoes.
