Chapter 23: A light smile
Tian's mind turned around, and it was more important to comfort the sister-in-law now.
Du Yuniang came to her senses, and the fog in her eyes had already dissipated.
"I'm fine, I just let the heat in the pot smoke." Du Yuniang blinked, and said, "Yuniang, what do you want?" ”
Tian saw Du Yuniang standing on the edge of the stove, staring at a certain place with her eyes hooked, looking very sad, and couldn't help but ask softly.
In this family, the sister-in-law's status is very high, and she is absolutely pleased.
Tian felt that he was able to marry into the Du family, which was a virtue accumulation in his previous life and a blessing! So she is very grateful to live in this home.
Whether it is to her in-laws, grandmother, husband, uncle, and sister-in-law, Tian treats them with courtesy and truly treats them as her relatives.
Tian's appearance is not very outstanding, especially compared with Du Yuniang, it is so ordinary that it can't be more ordinary.
She is of medium stature, with slightly yellow skin, and her eyebrows and eyes are also very plain, with no protrusions.
Tian's boudoir name is Tian Zhaodi, and she is one of the many village women!
She is the daughter of the Tian family, and her mother's home is in the Niangniang Temple.
Probably the name is too good, Tian's wife gave birth to six sons in a row after giving birth to her.
It is a good thing that there are many sons, which represents the prosperity of children and grandchildren! And there is a lot of labor in the family, as long as you are willing to endure hardships, life will definitely get better.
But half the size of the child, eat the poor old man.
When the six boys of the Tian family grew up, the amount of food was very amazing. The family tightened their belts to get by, but the days were still tight, and there was nothing left.
In a blink of an eye, several children have grown up, and they were expected to be diligent in their hands and feet, work, farm, and live a prosperous life. Which Cheng thought, Tian's old lady suddenly fell ill, and the hard-earned money that the family had saved with great difficulty became the cost of soup and medicine, and it didn't take long to consume all the savings of several years.
Later, although Tian's wife got better, her family became poorer.
The daughter reached the age of marriage, but could not marry, and the son reached the age of marrying a daughter-in-law, and because the family was too poor, he could not marry a daughter-in-law at all.
The Du family doesn't dislike her family for being poor, and they don't even mind that she doesn't have a dowry, which is very rare.
As for what the Du family took a fancy to her......
Hehe.
She is diligent with her hands and feet, especially good at living, and according to the older generation, she is a good child and can give birth to a son. But these don't matter at all, okay? The important thing is that the Du family treats her really well.
Except, of course, for sisters-in-law. (Second bedroom is not counted)
In her previous life, Du Yuniang was undoubtedly full of malice towards the Tian family.
Du Yuniang hated Tian's background, and hated her submissiveness in the face of herself, as if Tian had invisibly turned herself into a villain.
It is precisely because of this that the Tian family will be cautious when facing Du Yuniang.
This time Du Yuniang came back, and Tian felt the difference between her. People don't look as bad as they used to be, whether it's looking at people's eyes or talking to people, they are soft, and they don't look down on people like before.
The most important thing is that the sister-in-law has begun to get close to their big house, which is very rare. Today, when Du Yuniang coaxed Xiaohuzi, she saw it with her own eyes, and the intimate demeanor of the sister and brother did not look like pretending. Especially Yu Niang's patience with Xiaohuzi really surprised her.
Tian smiled.
It is said that looking at beauties under the lamp, Du Yuniang's smile can be described as shining, and it is almost like blinding Tian's eyes.
"Then, then you hurry into the house and rest, and the dumplings will be fine for a while." Tian always felt that Du Yuniang was a fairy-like person, not suitable for doing these rough jobs, and it didn't take too many people to cook dumplings, so let the sister-in-law rest, she could still be happy!
Du Yuniang shook her head towards Tian, "It's okay, I'm not tired, sister-in-law, I'll help you light the fire!" ”
Yes?
Tian was dumbfounded, she had been married into the Du family for two or three years, and she had never heard Yu Niang call herself. Today's sister-in-law came too suddenly and unexpectedly.
"No, Jade Niang, I really don't need to!" Tian saw Du Yuniang squatting down and wanted to sit on the small wooden tie to help her watch the fire, so frightened that she hurriedly pulled Du Yuniang up.
The sister-in-law's hands were soft and slippery, not unlike her rough hands that were used to farm work.
"Yu Niang, obedient, you can't do this rough work, you go into the house to talk to grandma, and the dumplings will be fine for a while." Tian's sweat was about to come down, and her sister-in-law was by her side, which made her feel a little uncomfortable, and she even seemed to be unable to do the work she was used to.
Du Yuniang was a little crying and laughing, she really wanted to help her sister-in-law do some work!
"Grandmother." Looking up and seeing Li's teasing smile, Du Yuniang felt a little embarrassed, she was a person who had lived for more than 30 years, and she still let people treat her as a child.
"Don't rush, take your time!" Li took it for granted that his granddaughter had changed and wanted to integrate into the family as soon as possible.
That's a good thing.
Du Yuniang nodded vaguely and sat beside Li obediently.
She is not the kind of person who is clever in words, she wanted to fly on the branches in her previous life, and she also relied on her own appearance and means. She had never done anything inferior or said anything flattering.
Later, she was framed by the eldest woman, and when she was broken by He Wugeng, she knew that she was a pawn of the He family, and her whole person was filled with hatred, from a person who didn't like to talk in the first place, to a person who cherished words like gold.
Because she didn't know what she could say after she opened her mouth, as if her short life had nothing to say except hatred.
In a trance, she seemed to be back to that fiery night, she laughed, laughed arrogantly, laughed with tears, but couldn't say a word! The revenge was avenged, what she had was just hysterical catharsis, but the dull pain in her chest seemed to crush her to death.
"The dumplings are ready!" Liu brought the boiled dumplings to the table and beckoned the family to come and eat the dumplings.
Tian then also brought a plate of dumplings over, and there were two big pots at home, and the dumplings were cooked quickly.
The whole family sat together, and it was already the time to eat dumplings.
"Second child, the firecrackers haven't been set off, so let's set off the firecrackers first."
Du Hepu answered, hurriedly put on the whip and went to the ground, and set off firecrackers.
The countryside is particular about the firecrackers on the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve and the morning of the first day of the New Year, but they cannot be saved. Those who have the conditions will put more of them, and those who don't have the conditions will have to find ways to make some moves.
The sound of crackling firecrackers sounded in the yard, Li looked at the smiling faces of the whole family, quite comfortable, she picked up chopsticks, took the lead in holding a dumpling, and said, "Eat dumplings!" ”
Huzi cheered and hurriedly started.
Du Yuniang looked at these calmly and smiled lightly.
