Chapter 203: In-laws

The Zhou Mansion in Anning County, after the winter of melting ice and snow, has gradually become willow green and red, and warblers are dancing with swallows. Aunt Wang lives very comfortably, she can read books freely every day, teach and teach Wu Niang, this day is really comfortable, so she has not returned to Pingshan Village.

The most important thing is that she is now going to make soup for Xue Jian every other day and send it over with Wu Niang.

It turns out that this new house is so close to the Xu family, there is no need to take a sedan chair, and a few people can walk for a while, which is very convenient.

For Aunt Wang, Xue Jian did not have the usual discrimination of this era, what she saw was only an olive branch extended to her by Aunt Wang, not her aunt's identity. So I don't have any special feelings about Aunt Wang's overtures, in such an era when women are regarded as property, although Xue Jian does not allow Zhou Bo to have concubines, he still doesn't have too deep feelings for other people's concubines. What's more, if you respect me, although I will not respect you, the necessary harmonious relationship must be maintained. Xue Jian can still deal with all this calmly, but her response makes Aunt Du very entangled.

Aunt Du is a member of the Du family, and she feels even more heartbroken when she sees that the relationship between the eldest and young grandmother and aunt of the Zhou family is better than that of her own mother-in-law, but the situation of the Zhou family has become a mess, and she is a subordinate, she really has no ability or energy to mix again, and it is only right to take care of Xue Jian's body.

Every time she stood beside Xue Jian, Aunt Du could only smile bitterly and watch her and Aunt Wang talk and laugh in a gentle voice, several younger brothers and sisters also took turns to come over as guests, and Zhou Bo was naturally by his side when he had nothing to do. Tell me about the happy scene now, if the mother and daughter of the Liu family slip away, it will be Du's! Alas!

Fortunately, Du Shi, the "big coffee" of the Zhou family, also came to personally inquire about Xuejian twice, which left a little room for mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to barely get along, but there are several layers of estrangement in between, but it is not as close as Aunt Wang and Xuejian. And faintly Du Shi heard that Xue Jian had a big belly, and he and Zhou Bo met, chatted, and even ate with three foreign men every day, and he didn't like it even more. This girl is a girl, and she is a big difference in her body, and there is really no way to mention it in terms of upbringing. But she didn't dare to say it directly, although her son was still obedient on the surface, he had separated from the couple because of this matter, and even if she was dissatisfied at this time, she didn't want to hurt her son's face and her grandson's safety.

Just thinking about it, he heard a chaotic footsteps in the courtyard, Du Shi hurriedly raised his eyes, but saw the door curtain opened, Xu Cong'an was wearing a purple and red robe, wearing a turban, and strode in with a depressed face. ”

Seeing that his nominal in-laws didn't even have the most polite courtesy, Du Shi was stunned, it was not the first time he had seen this legendary imperial doctor, but because of Xuejian's body in such a condition, there was no very formal ceremony or procedure for the two families to meet. Now although Du Shi is angry in his heart, he is indeed at a loss, so he can only frown and say: "What did the father-in-law say, Xue Jian has been taken care of by you all the time, and the Zhou family is naturally very grateful." ”

Xu Cong'an has been in the palace for a long time, who hasn't seen it? Seeing that she was already showing weakness, she sneered in her heart, unconsciously rolled her eyes and looked at the sky, and said unceremoniously: "Isn't it touching that my mother-in-law can come to visit her little girl in person, regardless of the poverty of the humble house?" ”

Du's face changed, his face was flushed, and his hanging hand trembled slightly, but he didn't say anything in the end, just got up and said, "The father-in-law of Lao is bothered." ”

Aunt Wang has been coming and going a lot in the past two days, and she knows a little bit about the temperament of this miracle doctor, and she is the most arrogant, and she doesn't take vulgar etiquette and human feelings in her eyes, so his remarks are expected by Aunt Wang, and it is difficult to say whether Du Shi's ability can reverse the attitude of this former imperial doctor.

So, Aunt Wang smiled and turned the red coral bracelet on her wrist, and said with a faint smile: "It's all a family, it's all for our young grandmother's body, even if it's harder, according to the slave maid, Master Xu is also willing." ”

After speaking, she turned around and ordered someone to bring her casserole to her, in order to avoid suspicion, she also invited Xu Cong'an to taste and verify the soup and water she had boiled to stabilize the fetus and replenish qi. Although Du Shi didn't know this, she was straight in her heart, this Aunt Wang used to use these little tricks to please people at home, and now she used this set to coax outsiders.

Although he thought so, he couldn't say anything to her, and could only smile reluctantly. Aunt Du next to her knew her psychology, and hurriedly said: "Auntie is also too careful, where does her family have so much thought?" ”

Aunt Wang is accustomed to these sour words of Du and Aunt Du, and she also knows that the Du people have never had big ideas, swaying left and right, and there are some problems of listening to the wind and listening to the rain and rain, but for the family, although they are not forgiving in their mouths, they are really good in private. So she heard it, and she just smiled and didn't refute it.

Stretch out your hand and don't hit people with smiling faces, especially people like Xu Cong'an, who are extremely self-assured, just say a few mean words, if Zhou Shangyi is here, he can still theorize, and it is indeed not his style to make a fortune with a few old ladies. It's just through Du's mouth, go back and let Zhou Shangyi know his attitude, is it really bullying Xue Jian to have no mother's family?

So Xu Cong'an thought about it, and suddenly nodded and sighed: "The little woman is upright, and the most important thing is not to rub sand in her eyes, which is similar to the old husband. ”

Du Shi glanced at Xue Jian, who had been silent, and knew that this was Xu Cong'an using the child to pressure herself, she felt that she could really be said to be two-sided to please herself, the two sides were not people, she was old, but she let herself fall into a dilemma like this, alas, there is no way, fate! It's just that the Liu family just won't let go now, and they won't leave, so that the Zhou family, which is already at a loss, will bombard people outside?

Others can run to Anning to hide from Qingjing, but she and Zhou Shangyi cannot. So now I can only look at Xu Cong'an without knowing it, and say gloomily: "Pity the hearts of parents in the world, and my father-in-law is also for the children, I can naturally understand." ”

Seeing Du Shi lower his posture, Xu Cong'an continued to sigh unconsciously and said: "The old man has always liked Bo Ge'er's youth and promisingness, not like me, and he is getting old day by day. After thinking about the old man's day, he pointed to this daughter and son-in-law to live, and asked his mother-in-law not to dislike our poor family. ”

Du Shi listened to him for a long time, but it is just some related matters that pregnant women should pay attention to, Du Shi has given birth to four children himself, these are naturally understood, and it is not easy to interrupt, so he can only listen with a smile. If it weren't for the fact that Yukimi's mood should not fluctuate too much, she really wanted to go out directly.

What bothered her was not only Xu Cong'an's attitude, but also the fact that there were some homeless people gathered outside the county, and it was very inconvenient to go back and forth. Originally, according to Zhou Bo's intentions, it was best for the whole family to move to Anning together, but the mother and daughter of the Liu family did not leave, and it was not easy to mention this matter again. Although there are a lot of nursing homes in the Zhou family now, Zhou Bo is not at ease in the end, so he won't let her come again, saying that it will not be too late to come again when the displaced people disperse after a while.

Of course, even if it's not safe, Duch is still willing to run around. Xue saw that the belly was pointy, needless to say, it must be a big fat grandson! Moreover, listening to the meaning of Xu Cong'an's words, there must be no doubt that it is Sun Tzu! As soon as he thought of this, Du Shi put away all those troubles, and when he returned to Pingshan Village, his mouth couldn't be closed, and he talked to Zhou Shangyi, "This daughter-in-law is a blessed one, and the first child can be added, no wonder people in this village often worship her as a bodhisattva." "In fact, how can anyone in this village be a bodhisattva? But naturally, no one was in front of her, and she thought about it herself.

When Zhou Shangyi heard this, he was secretly happy in his heart, his face was not obvious, and the corners of his mouth were also curved, "Can you see it?" Is it really a grandson? Don't rejoice. "The Zhou family has gone through ups and downs, and now they are very open to silver, and they are naturally concerned about the import of Tian Ding, even if it is a granddaughter.

Du Shi's heart moved, knowing that her husband had also recognized her daughter-in-law, she nodded tearfully: "Anyway, although our Zhou family has ups and downs, everyone is fine, and the children are gradually sensible, this is the most important thing." ”

Zhou Shangyi immediately agreed and said: "Madame is reasonable, but sometimes too many blessings may not be a good thing." "For example, the one who crossed the courtyard had decided to leave, but suddenly said that he would not leave, and he didn't know what the ending was. Zhou Bo's child is also dead, so why is it bad to marry such a virtuous woman as a flat wife? Spreading branches for the Zhou family is a big deal.

Du's mind is similar to Zhou Shangyi's, and when he heard this, he naturally nodded again and again: "The master is right, it's just that the daughter-in-law is too jealous, and they are a young husband and wife, and they are in trouble, so they naturally have a strong relationship, but I am afraid that Bo Ge'er will not be able to agree at present." ”

As he spoke, he took a few steps back, sat on the edge of the bed, and became worried, "Even now, the Liu family can't walk if they want to, and the homeless people have heard that there are still not many, and they are all rumored to start a war, and I am afraid that it will not be peaceful on this road......"

Zhou Shangyi paced back and forth and said, "Isn't there a way to get the best of both worlds?" ”

Du Shi looked at Zhou Shangyi, shook his head slowly, and said, "Daughter-in-law, naturally I can't persuade anymore." Now, unless my son relaxes, or the Liu family changes his mind, I really can't think of any other way to be happy! ”

Zhou Shangyi knew that she was telling the truth, and he didn't understand his son's insistence, so he could only sigh: "My son has grown up and already has his own ideas!" We're old, and no one wants to listen to us anymore. ”

Du Shi got up to support him, and said with a wry smile: "In the future, we will only look at our grandson with peace of mind, okay?" ”
