Chapter Eighty-Six, Heart-to-Heart

Early the next morning, Zeng Ruixiang took Zifu and Zilu to the old house to help, Shen called Ziqing into the house and asked about last night's events in detail, Ziqing thought about it and told the truth.

Shen was noncommittal when she heard it, it seemed that everything was in her expectation, Ziqing didn't know how to persuade her, so she called her grandmother into the house to accompany her. I took my two younger brothers and took a small shovel to the back mountain to pick up eggs.

When Ziqing came back with a basket of eggs, Shen's mood seemed to be a little more cheerful, and he was drinking the chicken soup that He had boiled. He has always thought that his daughter has given birth to so many children, and she has not eaten any serious good things in the previous confinement, so she must make up for the loss of her body this time, so every once in a while, she killed an old hen and boiled a pot of thick soup, and even the children borrowed it all.

When Ziqing saw this, she didn't bother to take her two younger brothers to the old room for dinner, and said to Shen with a smile: "Mother, let's drink some chicken soup at home, although it is a formal banquet, it is chaotic, if we don't go, no one will notice." Besides, I don't think the food over there is as good as ours. ”

"Silly boy, don't look for trouble, let's go over. In case your grandparents, grandma and sister-in-law know that you are not going, they will be unhappy, but it is your sister-in-law's day. I'm going to see off my relatives tomorrow. Let's change our clothes. Shen said.

Ziqing had to change her clothes and bring her two younger brothers to the old room, the banquet had not yet started, Zishou took Zixi to pick up firecrackers to play, Zeng Ruiqing and Zeng Ruixiang were busy putting things together, Zifu and Zilu were setting up tables, chairs, dishes and chopsticks, and Ziqing also stepped forward to help.

"Qing'er, don't do it, find a room to sit in, don't stain your clothes, my brothers did this little thing." Zifu said.

Ziqing saw that there were many female dependents who were accompanying the Zhou family to talk about their children in the house, and Tian's room was occupied by her mother's sisters and younger siblings, several older mothers-in-law. entered my sister-in-law's house, "Ziqing, when your second aunt got married, you gave a pair of piles of flowers in the capital, did I get married?" Qiu Yu asked with a smile when she saw Ziqing.

"You're chewing maggots again, you caused trouble last night. I don't have a long memory. People who are about to get married, I see why you didn't cover up when you got to your mother-in-law's house? As soon as Xia Yu heard this, he hurriedly taught her a lesson.

"Sister-in-law. Where there is always such a coincidence, last time someone brought me from the capital, the second aunt caught up, or, you wait for when I go to the capital and buy you a pair. Will you remarry then? Ziqing asked with a funny smile.

Qiu Yu twisted Ziqing's face, and was about to say something, when Chunyu came in with Wumao in her arms, and Ziqing said hello. was sitting bored, Xiao Xiuying's sisters came in, and Xiuying's day was also set for the beginning of spring next year. So the two joked with each other. Ziqing pulled Xiushui to sit aside and whispered.

After a while, the sound of firecrackers was heard, and the guests entered the door one after another, probably because of the underestimation and the prepared table was not enough. Ziqing and them, Da Mao and Ziping did not arrange for the banquet, and when the guests left, Tian found seven or eight leftovers from the stove for the children, and with Da Mao and a few of them, Ziqing and they could not eat any good dishes. Ziping is bigger and much stronger. I even grabbed two slices of meat to eat. Zifu took his younger siblings and ate a few bites indiscriminately, Ziqing thought that it was really better to drink a bowl of chicken soup at home, but he didn't even think that he didn't even have a dinner table.

Ziqing, who was crying at night, was not interested in listening, and pulled Zifu and whispered: "Brother, let's go home, staying will only let us do things, maybe we have to wash the dishes, and my mother is still waiting at home." ”

Zifu smiled and pinched Ziqing's face, "It's your ghost." After saying that, he said hello to Zeng Ruixiang, and the five of them went home hand in hand, leaving Zeng Ruixiang alone.

The next day, Zifu took his younger brothers and sisters to see off his relatives, and because they were close, even Zixi followed. The family was quiet, and He went to the back mountain to pick up eggs, leaving his daughter and son-in-law to say something considerate.

Zeng Ruixiang was discussing the matter of Ziyu and the full moon with the Shen family at home, "Yumei, I know you are not happy, but this is not a helpless thing, the eldest brother and sister-in-law have a child easily, and the sister-in-law is still a person who can't figure it out, so she recognized a dead reason, not to say that it was said by the master of Qingyuan Temple, my father and mother also persuaded me to take a step back, I have to wronged you, let's just be a day late." ”

Shen said: "I expected that there would be trouble, it's nothing to be a day late, they can do what they want, let's live our own lives, my mother persuaded me, people are doing it, the sky is watching." I believe that the Bodhisattva will take good care of my daughter, and my rain will definitely grow up healthy. Let's not be angry. ”

"Well, I'm worried that you won't be able to think about it, in fact, I don't care, I just feel sorry for your grievances. You're right, let's live our lives well, even my father praised you in front of everyone, saying that you never broke these old women's long tongues. Zeng Ruixiang didn't expect his wife's attitude to be so tolerant,

"He should praise me well, I should have responded to whatever he said when we broke up, and I didn't expect that we would take advantage of anything, besides, just that little bit of family foundation is there, even if you tear your face, it's not interesting. What do you want after the separation depends on your face, I basically gave it, especially when I first broke up, knowing that we don't have a grain of grain in our hands, a Dragon Boat Festival, open your mouth to ask for a stone of wheat, and I don't want to think about how I live as a family? Where to find me such an obedient and obedient good daughter-in-law, but not to praise me. In fact, I also figured it out, what can I do if I take advantage of it? Can you live a lifetime? The eyelids are too shallow, even God can't look at it, don't you often say that God rewards hard work, you see, in the end, it's still our family's life. ”

"Yes, I know that I have suffered you all these years, so I want to discuss with you, I will quit the museum at the end of the year and go home to accompany you. Our family is not short of these taels of silver now, I open a museum at home, and the junior is also going to be enlightened, Zifu can take Zilu to study in the county, Zifu is old after all, and he can take care of Zilu. I have been away from you all these years, it is forced by life, and now, I want to accompany you well. Zeng Ruixiang held his wife's hand and stroked it over and over again.

"Are you really willing to quit? You have to think about it, I don't want you to regret it. Think about it again. Will you be able to come back on the day of the rain and the full moon? ”

"Let's see, just after taking ten days off, your eldest brother's son will get married next month, and you won't have to take another day off. I can't come back, you look for your sister-in-law to help, don't be tired. The couple whispered for more than an hour.

After Ziqing and they entered the house, Zeng Ruixiang reluctantly said goodbye to the Shen family, Zifu pulled Ziqing to the side and said: "Sister, after my brother leaves, you must take the third and fourth children well, my mother can't take care of it now, you have to worry more about the affairs of the family, help your grandmother take care of it, my brother knows that it is difficult for you to do this, you are only eight years old, but my brother has no other way, my mother is in confinement, and my grandmother is also old, so I have to work harder, fortunately, my brother knows that you are sensible." After Zifu finished speaking, he hugged Ziqing tightly, and Zilu also had red eyes on the side. (To be continued)
