Sanzhu's daughter-in-law couldn't stand it anymore, so she stuffed her youngest son into her daughter's arms, stepped forward to help her man, and said to Mrs. Lu: "Mother, don't you know who Sanzhuzi is?" He picks up a bird's egg in the forest and brings it back to you to eat, where will he eat it alone behind your back? The porridge was cooked by my sister-in-law surnamed He, and I just helped watch the fire for a while. ”

"Whew! You plagued mother-in-law dare to talk to me? If you want to learn, you have to see if you are that material! Mrs. Lu regarded the three-pillar daughter-in-law as Hua Ronghua, and all kinds of foul words gushed out, scolding the three-pillar daughter-in-law straight to tears.

"Is my mother trying to force me to death?" The daughter-in-law of the three pillars shouted angrily.

"If you want to die, you will die!" Mrs. Lu is not used to the three-pillar daughter-in-law, looking for who to show alive!

The daughter-in-law of the three pillars trembled angrily, and she was about to hit the wall next to her as soon as she buried her head.

"the kid!" The three pillars grabbed his daughter-in-law and stopped her from looking for a short time.

"You've got more than a father! Look at what kind of mother is this on your stall? You starved your baby's belly and took food to honor her, but in the end she wanted to kill me! Sanzhu's daughter-in-law was really sad, crying and beating her husband's chest.

"What does it mean to honor me with grain, just a bag of bud flour a year is still mixed with bran skin......"

"Mother, can you stop talking." Lu Wenping felt that his head was buzzing, and he saluted the three pillars and the husband and wife, "Brother and sister-in-law, if you have anything to say in the house, don't make a noise here to the neighbors." ”

"Hey, hey!" Sanzhuzi has always been in awe of Lu Wenping, who is literate and literate, and at this time, seeing that he has no reason to talk to himself, he pulled his mother-in-law again.

Sanzhu's daughter-in-law also knew that she was asking for help now, so she only sobbed and followed into the house.

Lu Wenping let the Sanzhu couple sit on the stool, and then apologized to them, "Please forgive my brother and sister-in-law, my brother was drunk when my brother came last night, and I didn't know that there was something going on this morning, so I was really slack!" ”

Sanzhuzi stood up from the stool, rubbed his pants with his hands, and said crampedly: "Not slow, not slow." ”

Hua Ronghua, who was watching the excitement outside the door, couldn't help but burst out laughing, which provoked Mrs. Lu with a roll of her eyes, cut, who is so rare to watch! Hua Ronghua turned around and went to the kitchen, just a little hungry!

Lu Wenping was also a little speechless for the answer of the three pillars, so he had to ask again: "May I ask why my brother came with the whole family this time?" Isn't this the New Year? ”

"I, I am ......" The three pillars were even more uneasy, and they couldn't even finish their words.

It was the daughter-in-law of Sanzhu who made things clear. It turned out that at the beginning of this year, Sanzhu's daughter-in-law caught two piglets from Rich Li's house, and said that she would sell the pigs at the end of the year and then give money, but the pigs died of illness before they grew up.

The rich man Li brought people to force debts, and looted all the valuable things in the house, not to mention, and also arrested Youfu to pay off the debts. Sanzhu and his wife disagreed, and Sanzhu's daughter-in-law also scared Li Rich and said that his brother-in-law was a celebrity in the eyes of the county magistrate. Maybe the rich man Li was really frightened, and he didn't dare to say anything about paying off the debts with blessings, and only urged them to repay the money.

Originally, the three pillars and their husbands thought that they would sell the house they lived in first, and there was still some left to pay off the debts, but who would have thought that the house would suddenly catch fire one night, and the loss was found early, or maybe the lives of the whole family would be burned to death inside.

"That fire must have been set by the rich man Li, just so that we can't afford to pay the money to catch Youfu! Rokuro, you must not spare him. "The daughter-in-law of the three pillars hated the way.

Lu Wenping frowned and asked, "But you caught Rich Master Li or who is it?" "If someone really set fire to it, then it really can't sit idly by.

Sanzhu shook his head, "No, nothing was caught, the fire was still extinguished by those neighbors, and even the house frame burned down." With that, the man squatted down on the ground and grabbed his head with both hands, as if in great pain.

"It's not good to arrest Rich Li without a certificate." Lu Wenping said truthfully.

The Sanzhu couple should have known this result a long time ago, but they still had a glimmer of luxury.

"The house in the countryside is burning, and the weather is getting colder and colder, and it is about to snow, so we can't sleep in the snow, so I thought about borrowing a winter from Rokuro." Sanzhu's daughter-in-law ignored her mother-in-law's fierce eyes and asked Lu Wenping directly, "Liulang, you won't take us in!" ”

"Of course not, my brother and sister-in-law can live in peace!" Lu Wenping said.

Old Lu was too anxious, "Hey, Liulang, you are stupid, you want to support their family of five for nothing?" ”

"Mother!" Lu Wenping's face was a little unbearable, this was still in front of his brother and sister-in-law, how could his mother say it.

"No, it won't be in vain, I and Youyu will go out to find a job to do, and the child can also wash clothes or something if he is blessed." As soon as Sanzhuzi heard that Lu Wenping let him stay, he hurriedly promised that he would not eat white food.

"Don't be in a hurry to work, let's rest for two days first. If you're hungry, let's go to the dining hall to eat. Lu Wenping pondered, since the person has stayed, don't be harsh and make people hold grudges, and should be treated well.

Mrs. Lu was scolded twice by her own son early in the morning, and then a mother's heart was also hurt enough at this time, "I don't eat it, I'm full of anger." "He lost his temper.

"Mother, don't make trouble." Lu Wenping shouted in a low voice, and said with a smile to the Sanzhu couple waiting at the door: "Brother and sister-in-law should go over first." ”

"Mother, he is my brother after all, if you treat you too harshly, it is not good to be known." Lu Wenping persuaded in a low voice, "After all, he is also your son!" ”

"I never gave birth to him!" Mrs. Lu said angrily: "I knew that raising him was to collect debts, so I shouldn't have softened my heart at that time and let him starve to death." "Mrs. Lu regards her adopted son Sanzhuzi as the object of oppression, and now this person who has always been oppressed by herself wants to take advantage of herself, is this worth it?!

"Mother, my brother has also been filial to you all these years." When Lu Wenping was born, Sanzhuzi was almost ten years old, and the two were not compatriots, coupled with Mrs. Lu's prejudice, the two had no feelings.

Although Lu Wenping has no feelings for his adoptive brother, he still understands basic things, so he can only persuade his mother, "Besides, so many people saw that my brother's family came to join me last night, and I was afraid that people would laugh at me if I drove them out, and it would be bad if it reached the ears of the county order." ”

Mrs. Lu pouted, "There are too many county orders." ”

Cough! Lu Wenping pretended not to hear his mother's nagging, "Besides, my brother also said that he just borrowed it, and when the spring of the New Year is over, they will probably go back to the countryside again!" Besides, my brother will go out to work to earn money, mother, don't scold them anymore. ”

Although she was a little worried that her mess would affect her son, Mrs. Lu was still indignant, "There are so many idlers at home, you must not be tired to death!" ”

"Uh......" Mother still felt sorry for herself, Lu Wenping, who had been busy all morning, suddenly felt that it was better to have a mother's child, and held the old lady's arm to comfort her: "Don't worry, mother, isn't there still that shop?" Brother, they're here, so the shop doesn't have to hire any more people! ”

The son has already made the decision, and Mrs. Lu, who has always regarded her son as the sky, can only curse a few words in a low voice no matter how dissatisfied she is.

The Sanzhuzi family lived in the Lu family in this way, and the family of five lived in the guest room in the east wing. Under the fence, the family is not very comfortable, the work at home is rushed, and they dare not be too casual at the dinner table, and only eat the least amount of food and pickles at a time, but they don't have to live on the street.

It was almost noon when there was another knock on the door.

"Which one suffered from the plague?" Mrs. Lu was a little frightened by the knock on the door, and stood at the door of the West Chamber staring at the gate.

Hua Ronghua also walked out of the main room, for some reason, she faintly felt that the knock on the door might be related to herself.

The three pillars didn't need Mrs. Lu to shout and ran to open the door, and after a while, his exclamation was heard, "Mother! ”

Mrs. Lu almost fell down in a trembling way, and cursed with a black face, "Call the soul!" Walking quickly into the courtyard, I was stunned.

I saw a shopkeeper-like person standing at the gate and directing four strong men to carry a coffin to the courtyard, but the three pillars blocked left and right did nothing, and outside the door, the women who lived nearby were looking into the courtyard.

"Y-What are you doing here? Sent bad luck to the door? Mrs. Lu's lips trembled angrily, "Hurry, go and report to the officials and arrest them!" ”

The shopkeeper on the side stopped hearing this, "Hey, I said old lady, it's obviously the coffin you bought with money, and you asked us to send it to the door, why do you want to arrest us again?" ”

"You fart, old lady, I'm alive and well, what kind of coffin did you buy?" Mrs. Lu staggered to the firewood room, carrying an axe, and was about to rush over to split the coffin.

Chop! With a muffled sound, the axe was embedded in the coffin lid, and Mrs. Lu didn't pull it out when she tried her strength to feed, so she turned her head and shouted, "Where are you dead?" Hurry up and split this coffin for me! ”

Sanzhuzi answered and was about to look for a knife, but the shopkeeper reacted and hurriedly asked someone to pull Mrs. Lu away and stopped Sanzhuzi.

"I said something was wrong with your family, right? These coffins are willing to be cut with knives? "The shopkeeper is a little distressed, this coffin is the treasure of his town store!

How many taels are a ten? Hua Ronghua was stunned and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Shopkeeper, who asked you to send this coffin?" ”

Lu Wenping, who was making up for sleep in the west wing, was also awakened, he came out with his clothes on, and when he saw the mess in the yard, he felt a pain in his brain, and shouted, "Shut up!" ”

When the courtyard was quiet, he asked, "What's the matter?" Then he asked the shopkeeper, "Who art thou?" Why did you bring the coffin to my yard? ”
