Chapter 62: Farce
The sun is half-down, and the evening breeze carries the humidity after the rain, and the leaves swaying with a few raindrops. Shen Yuanyao lifted the dustpan on his back, and walked home with a faster pace.
Seeing the smoke rising from the chimney of the Shen family from a distance, and daring to walk in front of the courtyard of the Shen family, I heard Shen Yuanyao's sister-in-law Jia Xiuli scolding: "A little rabbit cub without a father and a mother, he is waiting to eat without doing any work." ”
"Beautiful, yelling." Qin Hua's voice then sounded, "Sanya is ready to go home, and I don't know how to think when I hear it." ”
"Whatever she wants, the ground doesn't go down, so she takes a little rabbit cub to make a herb all day long, what do you want!"
Qin Hua stopped saying anything when she heard this, she had been weak for half her life, no matter what Jia Xiuli said, she gave birth to two eldest grandsons to the Shen family, and she had no credit and hard work. She can say whatever she likes, and if she doesn't care, compared to her daughter Shen Yuanyao, her eldest son and two grandsons are more important.
Shen Yuanyao stood outside the courtyard and listened to it, almost laughing angrily at her sister-in-law. She woke up from this body a month ago, and before it happened, she never imagined that such a thing would happen to her. It doesn't matter if you go back to ancient times, you still have a small oil bottle, and the only consolation point is that it comes with a space ring.
Since she returned home, she has given some money to supplement the Shen family, she just went up the mountain to collect medicine, and when she came back and listened to such a bag, if she hadn't listened to it today, she really didn't know that her sister-in-law would talk like this.
Shen Yuanyao still doesn't believe it, she is a white-collar worker in the 21st century, and she can't handle such a sister-in-law who loses money.
The courtyard door was pushed open from the outside, and the door panel slammed on the fence with a loud sound, Jia Xiuli looked up suddenly, and saw Shen Yuanyao stepping into the courtyard with half a foot, and the other foot firmly stepping into the courtyard, and said in her heart, "Sanya, why did you return home so early today?" ”
"If you don't go home early, how do you know that my sister-in-law will say that about my family." Shen Yuanyao hooked the corners of her lips, whether she wanted to smile or not, and her eyes greeted her directly, "I haven't understood it for a long time, my sister-in-law steals pork and sells it to the Liang family, so why do you say that my family eats it secretly." ”
Jia Xiuli's face was red and black for a while, and she couldn't speak for a long time. Qin Hua saw that her daughter-in-law's face was not very good-looking, so she stepped forward and took Shen Yuanyao's hand and was about to go inside, and said as she walked: "Don't talk about your sister-in-law, I didn't fall on the mountain today, I am so restless, I will feel relieved to see that you are fine." ”
"Mother, I'm fine. You have to take care of your sister-in-law, I'm finer now. ”
Shen Yuanyao shook off Qin Hua's hand without showing a trace, it didn't take too long for her to return home, but she could see this mother's heart clearly this month, and it was simply out of bounds.
In his eyes, it is the eldest son and the two eldest grandsons, if Jia Xiuli reprimands her two eldest grandsons tonight, she doesn't jump up and scold, and when she sees that it is the son brought back by Shen Yuanyao, she will let it go, this kind of thing happens a lot, even her own daughter will be chilled.
"Auntie!" Liu Anyi saw Shen Yuanyao returning home, jumped down from the mat spread in the yard, and hung directly on her.
Shen Yuanyao looked at Liu Anyi, who was full of admiration and grievances, and pressed half of his anger down, and walked towards the mat in the courtyard with him in his arms.
"Mother, I don't cook yet, and when my father returns home and doesn't eat, it's time to talk about it again."
Jia Xiuli said that her sister-in-law was not still caught, and now her heart is still empty, seeing her mother-in-law helping her to speak, the sister-in-law didn't even give herself a corner of the eye, and she didn't catch what she just said, and her heart was secretly happy.
This sister-in-law is really a soft person like her mother-in-law, easy to bully. A big girl brought a son home, saying that it was the grandson of her adoptive father, who knew what had happened in the past few years.
When she thought about it like this, she was still upright in her heart, and the more she looked at this sister-in-law, the more unpleasant she became.
Shen Yuanyao helped Qin Hua make dinner, and as soon as the meal was served, Shen Houniu and Shen Hongguang just returned home, and the family sat together for dinner.
"Auntie, it's raining heavily today, and the herbs are all wet." Liu Anyi opened her big wet eyes, her fingers buckled the mat she was sitting on again and again, and she said weakly: "I can't finish it, so I'll get wet." ”
Shen Yuanyao glanced at him, patted his hair soothingly, and his eyes hung directly on Jia Xiuli. She remembered very clearly that before going out this morning, she knew that someone was at home, so she specially asked Jia Xiuli to help watch it.
"Oh, don't I still have to watch the two jumping monkeys, why don't I have time to look at your herbs." Jia Xiuli was not afraid of Shen Yuanyao at all, and replied with a sharp voice under this gaze: "That herb will be wet if it is wet, tomorrow's sun must be very good, and it can be used for another day." ”
Shen Yuanyao was choked by such a sentence, even a person as young as Liu Anyi knew that this herb was useless if it was drenched in rain, and all her busy work in the past month would be scrapped.
"Sister-in-law's words make no sense, can this grain still be used if it is rained? This herb is the same thing, if you say you are not available, you are not available, my hard work in the past month has been in vain! ”
"It's not just some herbs, what's the use, I advise my sister-in-law to be at home with peace of mind, the woman's family is going to marry after all." Speaking of this, Jia Xiuli paused for a while, and sneered: "Speaking of marrying, sister-in-law, you still have a husband here, and it is difficult to marry." ”
As soon as Jia Xiuli's words landed, the faces of the few people in the courtyard who were enjoying the cool did not look very good, Shen Hongguang slapped her directly in the face, and said angrily: "You mother-in-law has a lot of mouths, how can there be such a mother-in-law who talks to her sister-in-law!" ”
Qin Hua's face was pale, and she was directly trembling with anger, "It's just a matter of what the people outside say, you will also come to chew the root of your tongue at home, the rules are too big for you!" "She is partial to her eldest son and grandson, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't feel sorry for this daughter, how can she also be the meat that fell from her body. usually looks at the two grandsons silently, but now it is related to the reputation of his daughter, how can he not care.
"Shen Hongguang, you don't care about your son? People outside say this, your son is going to school in the future, chewing the root of the tongue like this, which master is willing to accept the two of us! Jia Xiuli was slapped in the face, but she didn't care about it, and shouted directly at Shen Yuanyao: "Why doesn't my sister-in-law think about our family, I don't think about the reputation of my two nephews, and I just move out to live in the province!" ”
Shen Yuanyao's hand around Liu Anyi gradually tightened, it was not the first time she was squeezed by Jia Xiuli, and she didn't want to go toe-for-tat with this sister-in-law, after all, this is not the 21st century, a society that advocates equality between men and women. Jia Xiuli married into the Shen family and was a member of the Shen family, and she was the water spilled by her daughter after all.
Ben still held the situation that she would not quarrel if she could avoid it, but her forbearance contributed to Jia Xiuli's prestige.
"Sister-in-law, this is funny, why I, Shen Yuanyao, moved out to live, not you!" Shen Yuanyao sneered and swept over the people present one by one, "Just based on what you said today, my sister-in-law's mother-in-law taught my sister-in-law three obedience and four virtues?" ”
"Three from four virtues, you are embarrassed to say, you brought such a guy home, who knows if this guy was secretly born by you, and I don't want to think about how our Shen family was poked in the back!"
Jia Xiuli is usually spicy and uninformed, but every sentence is on point, and Shen Houniu's face is even more ugly, darker than ink.
"Father-in-law, you should give me a good word, whether Shen Hongguang will take me and the two of you to move out to live, or it is appropriate for my sister-in-law to go out and live alone, I will wait for the right word today!" The Shen family's affairs are just a matter of Shen Houniu's words, and since ancient times, there has been no father-in-law to teach his daughter-in-law a lesson, so it is very appropriate to ask Shen Houniu directly.
Shen Houniu's face was dark and calm, his eyes swept to Shen Yuanyao, who had a calm face, and said in a stiff tone: "Just listen to your sister-in-law, there is a small house at the end of the village, which is our family's house, and it can still be lived in if it is repaired." As soon as he finished speaking, he put the cup in his hand on the table, got up and walked into the room.
Qin Hua hesitated for a long time, looked at the faces of her eldest son and daughter-in-law, and whispered to Shen Yuanyao: "Your father said so, I'll take you to pick up and pound when I'm free." After speaking, he followed Shen Houniu's footsteps and entered the house.
Jia Xiuli looked at Shen Yuanyao with a smug face, and said arrogantly with sarcasm: "Hurry up and pick up, I'll move away tomorrow, and outsiders in the province say that I don't treat my sister-in-law well." ”
She wore a huge five-finger print and dragged Shen Hongguang and the two of them back to the house.
Seeing that everyone was gone, Liu Anyi gently took Shen Yuanyao's hand and asked, "Auntie, are we going to move out?" ”
Children who are more than four years old and nearly five years old have begun to remember, Liu Anyi is already a little smarter than ordinary children, and he can hear a little good in what others say, and tonight's series of things will be so noisy sooner or later.
"In the future, the two of us will live in a courtyard, and the place is much more spacious!" Shen Yuanyao replied with a smile.
I used to think that the purpose of returning home was to get a household registration for him, so that I could send him to school, but now it's not bad to move out and live alone, and I don't have to endure such a sister-in-law all day long.
Liu Anyi looked at Shen Yuanyao for a long time, then laughed and clapped her hands: "Then the aunt won't scold the pupil anymore, right?" ”
Shen Yuanyao's eyebrows were cold, "I'm afraid that she will do something, just scold her back!" "It's also that she thought wrong before, and she endured and endured the Buddha!
It's okay now, they move out and live alone, and no one interferes in anyone's life.
Early the next morning, as soon as Shen Houniu and Shen Hongguang went out with hoes, Qin Hua helped Shen Yuanyao take things to the end of the village. Jia Xiuli stood at the door of the house, watching the two big and one small busy, holding a basin in her hand and saying, "The two of them haven't gotten up yet, so I won't help you." Then he poured the water from the basin into the yard, turned around and went back to the house.
"Your sister-in-law is just for the two of you, don't think too much, my mother will help you pick it up." Qin Hua had long been accustomed to the attitude of her daughter-in-law here, and when she turned around, she comforted her daughter, and her subordinates moved faster, thinking about putting things away quickly and coming back to cook while it was still early.
