Chapter 197: Revisiting Family Affairs
After saying that the matter of not sending the moon silver for the time being, Liu Man'er said slowly: "Your Han Fang is also a big girl, I asked her to follow Xiaohe, follow her to learn some embroidery and recognize Braille, our family has suddenly undergone great changes, many things will depend on you, you will definitely be very busy in the future, and it is estimated that it will be even busier after the New Year, but I will not treat you badly in the future."
Xiaoping, if he wants to read and write, just come and ask me, originally wanted him to be Feng'er's scholar, but you see, now the family really needs help, so I wronged him. ”
"The master's mother said this, but it tormented me, the master has something to say, what to rely on or not, what to talk about what grievances are not wronged." Han Shixin hurriedly bowed down and said.
Liu Man'er stood up, looked at Han Ping and said: "Uncle Han doesn't have to be presumptuous, you have been coming to my house for more than a year, I have always treated you as an uncle, and I have never looked down on you, if my Ye family grows stronger in the future, you will help take care of things at that time." ”
"I have your heart in my heart, and I will live up to my trust." After the new Korean expression of loyalty, he said, "Do you have any other instructions?" If not, then go down first. ”
"Just do what I just said, you can do it, sell it to us for the New Year, and other things, let's talk about it later, you can get busy first." Liu Man'er waved at him.
"Yes." Han Shixin bowed his head in response and retreated.
After he left, Liu Man'er continued to write the story, saying that this handwriting is still not as convenient as the computer, sometimes a sentence is written wrong, and it has to be crossed out and rewritten, but the traces left are really not beautiful, Liu Man'er estimates that she has to copy it again after writing this book.
Today she was in high spirits, and she didn't stop until she ate at night, and after eating, she began to write stories with oil lamps again, and when it was evening, Fang's and Ye He, Cao'er and others all came to the house, they embroidered flowers, made clothes and made clothes, candlelight and fire reflected on their faces, and Liu Man'er looked warm.
After writing the story of Sun Wukong's entire chapter, Liu Man'er stopped, put away the things, looked at Fang again, and saw that she was still sewing clothes, Liu Man'er said with concern: "Mother, don't do it, it's not early, you go back to the house early to rest, and then you will be tired again." ”
"Okay, okay, I'll talk about it after this stitch." Fang's mouth was harmonious, but he didn't even raise his head.
Liu Man'er shook her head helplessly, looked at Ye He and Cao'er again, and said, "Okay, don't embroider for the two of you, go and rest early, don't burn your eyes at a young age." ”
"Yes." Ye He and Cao'er didn't turn a blind eye to Liu Man'er's words like Fang's family, when they heard Liu Man'er's words, they finished embroidering the last stitch, pulled the thread, put down their hand bandages, said hello to Liu Man'er and Fang'er, went out, and went upstairs with each other.
After they left, Fang slowly put down the half-made clothes in his hand and said, "Man'er, I have something I want to discuss with you. ”
"You say." Liu Man'er stared at Fang's family.
Fang Shi pondered for a moment and said, "Tomorrow, I want to invite someone from the Tao family to come over, what do you think?" After all, it's not a problem for the two children to drag it all the time. ”
"Don't worry." Liu Man'er walked over, sat down beside the Fang clan, and said, "Let's talk about this matter in a few days." Uncle Han was sent by me to find a buyer, and for a while, no one went to Tao's house to report the news, so it seemed that we were too rash to let Han Ping go. ”
"Well, that's true." Fang Clan nodded.
Liu Man'er asked again: "Mother, what do you think of the Tao family's matter, do you think this family matter, to end or not to tie it?" ”
"Alas, it is better to settle the grievances than to tie the knot, as the saying goes, it is better to demolish a temple than to break a marriage, I know Qing'er's heart, and I can disappoint him." Fang said faintly.
In fact, as soon as she thought about the hurtful words that the Tao family said that day, she felt a throbbing pain in her heart now, but but, because her foolish son liked it, what could she do?
She is not that kind of evil mother-in-law, and she never does such evil things, even if the Tao family hurts her, but she also thinks about others, considers from the perspective of the Tao family, and justifies them.
Liu Man'er's compromise with the Fang clan was looking at her eyes, but her heart was extremely angry, why did they look down on people and covet power, and finally want the Fang clan to compromise?
She really can't accept this, it's better to let them be anxious, if such a thing happens, if the Ye family doesn't want Tao Cuiya, she doesn't believe that in such an ancient world where her reputation is greater than the sky, she Tao Cuiya can easily marry out!
Thinking of this, she felt that it was better to let Han Shixin not get things done so quickly, after all, if she said her mind bluntly, it would inevitably seem that she was too small, and if no one went to Tao's house, it would become a helpless thing.
Fortunately, Han Shixin was very busy for a few days, and sometimes he just got home, and he was instructed by Liu Man'er to turn around, Liu Man'er said to Han Shixin: "Uncle Han, if my mother asks you if there is anything to do later, you will say yes, you know?" ”
"yes, okay." Although Han Shixin didn't understand what Liu Man'er meant, he still nodded.
Liu Man'er knew Fang's temperament very well, she couldn't do such things as enslaving people, so she would definitely come to ask Han Shixin, but if Han Shixin said that she was very busy, she must be embarrassed to let Han Shixin help run errands again.
In fact, as expected, until the end of this November, the Fang family did not find a chance to let Han Shixin go to Tao's house.
In December, Han Shixin was even busier, not only busy with New Year's goods, but also sending vegetables to a restaurant he had already found every morning, not to mention, the chickens and ducks at home have grown up again, and he also has to send them to the shop, so that he has to go at least two times a day, sometimes even two or three times.
Fang Shi saw it in her eyes, she was anxious in her heart, she couldn't find a chance, and she was also anxious, but with Liu Man'er persuading her and analyzing the pros and cons with her, she was still able to stabilize.
To Liu Man'er's surprise, Ye Qing was able to stabilize it, he didn't seem to care at all, which made Liu Man'er feel too strange, didn't he want to marry Tao Cuiya?
asked Ye Qing once, Ye Qing only said that he still liked Tao Cuiya, Liu Man'er thought that she couldn't find him from time to time during this time, and she instantly understood in her heart.
The lover has already been in a tryst, so she has to be in a hurry, Liu Man'er feels that she is lifting a stone to shoot herself in the foot, causing the Fang family to talk about this matter from time to time.
So on this day, when Han Shixin was free, Liu Man'er instructed Han Shixin: "Uncle Han, please go to Tao's house, just say that my mother wants to discuss the matter of the two children with them, after all, this matter has been delayed for so long, and it is time to deal with it." ”
Liu Man'er is not a person who likes to drag mud and water, it is better to deal with it early, but it is also beneficial for her to delay for a while, at least Fang is more open-minded, and her body is better.
Liu Man'er analyzed several possible situations with Fang's family: one is that Tao Cuiya marries, one is that she doesn't marry, and the other is that Ye Qing is in trouble, Liu Man'er gave Fang's preventive shots in advance, so that even if the Tao family says something unpleasant at that time, Fang's psychological tolerance is much stronger.
After Han Shixin came back, he brought back a message, saying that the Tao family would come to visit in three days, and the Tao shopkeeper would also come over to deal with this matter thoroughly.
In fact, Liu Man'er has never dealt with such an embarrassing marriage, presumably no one else has dealt with it, if other people take advantage of it, they will definitely be arrogant, but Fang's still feels that he is wrong, and always thinks about calming things.
Even Liu Man'er felt that she was now under the influence of the Fang Clan, and had almost become a bun like the Fang Clan, the Fang Clan had changed Liu Man'er with kindness and generosity, but Liu Man'er felt that she had not changed the Fang Clan.
The three-day period has arrived in the blink of an eye, and this day the Fang clan is also dressed up and waiting for the arrival of the Tao family. Although she said before that she would deal with this matter thoroughly, she still felt a little nervous at the thought of waiting for the Tao family to come, and she didn't know how to deal with it.
Of course, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and when the Tao family really enters the door, she is not nervous.
The Tao family who came today did not have the two annoying aunts of the Tao family, but in addition to Mrs. Tao and the shopkeeper Tao, Tao Cuiya also came.
After Liu Man'er invited them to sit down, she also sat down shyly, because Tao Cuiya came, so Ye Qing also came over and sat down.
Han Fang served the tea, the Tao shopkeeper took a sip, put down the teacup, and asked, "I heard that Mrs. Ye is sick a few days ago, but she is well?" ”
As soon as he thought of this, Fang's family had some migraines, and Liu Man'er also rolled her eyelids, what is it, your family is angry, and you still have the face to ask at this moment?
As if he felt that he had said the wrong thing, the shopkeeper Tao saw that Fang didn't answer, so he also kept silent.
The atmosphere was a little silent for a while, at this moment, no matter what greetings were wrong, and it seemed a little embarrassing to say something, after a long time, Fang Shi said directly to the point: "I invited the three of you to come over, I want to discuss the marriage of the two children, I don't know what Shopkeeper Tao and Mrs. Tao have any ideas." ”
"What else can I think, in my opinion, there are red and green books and papers, let their two children get married as soon as possible." Mrs. Tao said coldly.
During this time, she was criticized, and even Tao Cuiya was looked down upon, saying that it was because of greed and vanity, and the Ye family didn't want her, and these words made Mrs. Tao angry to death.
What is called the Ye family's don't, obviously they don't want to be contaminated with the Ye family's poor bastard, okay? Hearing Ye Qing say that their family owed another two thousand taels due to Fang's illness, and they would have to pay it back by the end of next year, which made Mrs. Tao feel more and more that what she did was right.
As for those gossips, she can't turn a blind eye, every time she either scolds others, or thinks fiercely in her heart: When Ye Qing is in trouble, I see what you say!
However, Liu Man'er delayed the matter for too long, which made Mrs. Tao really a little worried, but Ye Qing was still diligent in running the times, and it was inconvenient for her to talk to Ye Qing about these things, so she could only keep silent.
"You mean to marry them?" When the Fang clan heard Mrs. Tao's readily agreed, they felt a little surprised in their hearts, they heard about Yuan'er's disappearance before, but they didn't want to get married.
Sure enough, things were not so easy, only to hear Mrs. Tao say again: "Yes, your family will clean up, let Ye Qing enter as soon as possible, this is the sixty taels of dowry you gave at the beginning, and we will give you another forty taels of dowry, a total of one hundred taels, it's enough!" ”
Madam Tao said, took out a hundred silver tickets from her bosom and handed it to the Fang family......
