Chapter 17: Into the Village
CHAPTER XVII
This is not a good thing to say, and it is a little unpleasant and a little sour. Obviously, I almost told Lin Baozhu, don't come to the door to eat and drink. It was also a few days ago that Aunt Tian gave Zhang Manho that little food and was bumped into by the Qian family, which didn't provoke the current leader. She didn't dare to make trouble with her in-laws, and she didn't catch up with the time when she saw Lin Baozhu ruthless, so she always felt that the rumors outside were too evil to be trusted, but Lin Baozhu was still the soft character who was rubbed by others before.
Seeing that what Qian said was not to be heard, Uncle Tian frowned and coughed a few times. But he is a father-in-law in the end, and he cares about the baby in his daughter-in-law's belly, so it's hard to say anything serious. And Aunt Bian Shangtian glared at her directly, and reprimanded her son: "Dashan, you can't forget your roots, if you weren't full of hoards back then, you might not be where you are now." If you can't manage your daughter-in-law well, I'll have someone bring a letter to my in-laws another day, and we'll talk about it. ”
As soon as these words came out, Qian Shi was a little sneered, snorted and only pouted and didn't dare to say anything more. Tian Dashan scratched his head honestly, greeted Lin Baozhu with some apologies, and went to get the shovel and hoe with a smile and planned to go to the ground.
Regarding the Qian family's yin and yang weirdness, Lin Baozhu was too lazy to deal with it and felt that there was no need to care. Originally, she didn't come for the Qian family, and besides, every family in the village was not well-off. Aunt Tian's family has always been full of hoards, and later gave eggs and pasta that can be exchanged for money, so it's strange that Qian can be happy.
"Auntie, don't be busy, I've already eaten. Didn't I make some mixed noodles potstickers yesterday and fried some pork shuttles, which tasted pretty good, so I'll bring some for you to taste. With that, Lin Baozhu lifted the blue cloth and handed over the basket.
When Aunt Tian saw that the basket was full of bowls of white noodles, as well as thin pancakes that smelled like eggs, and a lot of oil shuttles, she immediately waved her hand and refused. She didn't really want to pick up things, so she naturally complained again and again: "What are you doing, you and the two of you have just started their lives, why are you sending so many things out." ”
Lin Baozhu knew that Aunt Tian was worried that her life would be difficult, she was not a person who didn't know what to do, but every time she troubled others, she had to express her feelings. It's not that you have to give away things, but no matter what, it doesn't matter how good things are, it's always a thought.
If you really only accept Tian Damiang's gifts and help all the time, wouldn't you really become the kind of person who eats and drinks in Qian's mouth?
"Auntie, don't talk about me, where do I take it and take it away? Besides, it's just me and the two of us at home, it's enough to make a little bit of it, and I can't eat so much. Lin Baozhu said sincerely, looking at the unwillingness on Aunt Tian's face, he hurriedly said, "If nothing else, it is also appropriate to be an aunt to get some food for the little bench." ”
Seeing that she was sincere, and there was no embarrassed look on her face, Aunt Tian sighed several times and accepted the thing. Xu saw that this girl was sincere, and her heart naturally became closer.
The Qian family, who was still pricking up his ears and was afraid that his mother-in-law would send things out again, heard that there was something good, and his originally drooping face instantly became happy, and his disgusted eyes suddenly became shiny. Seeing what her mother-in-law wanted to say, she hurriedly stepped forward to pick up something, and said with a smile: "Mother, don't say anything, the daughter-in-law is not an outsider, no matter how polite it is, it will make people laugh." After speaking, he said, "Manho daughter-in-law, you go into the house and sit down, and I will pour you some water." ”
What is a change of face, Lin Baozhu can be regarded as understanding. But she didn't have any disgust, after all, the Qian family was not bad so far, otherwise if it really made a fuss, Aunt Tian probably wouldn't be able to help them for so many days.
Entering the house, several people sat on the kang and talked about the woman's private room. said that it was a private talk, but in fact, it was nothing more than a trivial housework between the east and the west. Of course, there is no shortage of Zhang Laohan peeing his pants and Liu being beaten.
"Don't you know, since the end of the handover, Old Man Zhang and the Liu family have been fighting for three days and five days, and when you got up early this morning, Uncle Tian still saw Old Man Zhang's face full of blood. When someone asked him, he was ashamed to say that it was a cat scratch. Thinking of the old man's old face being embarrassed by everyone's words, Aunt Tian couldn't help but pat her thigh with her hand rubbing the fine hemp rope, "I think that cat is wild, maybe there will be something rare in the future." ”
Lin Baozhu didn't really pay much attention to what was going on over there, but she was relieved to know that things were not going well over there. At least, there is some comfort in my heart.
"What about Zhang Erbao's daughter-in-law, Zhao?" Thinking of the woman who had just woken up and brought him a bowl of rice soup, Lin Baozhu couldn't help but say more. She is not a heartless person, no matter what, the Zhao family really wanted to help herself, even if in the end she was afraid of not stopping anything. But that bowl of rice soup wanted to block Liu's mind, and Lin Baozhu still remembered it.
Speaking of the Zhao family, Aunt Tian couldn't help but sigh, "If you want to say that the daughter-in-law is a virtuous person, she is also a bitter one." She is the maiden family of Shilibao, and her mother went early, and her father was a bad gambler, so he pressed her to the casino and lost to Old Man Zhang for some food. also has this reason, Liu and Zhang Erbao don't treat her as a human being at all, she has to do all the work, let alone Liu and Zhang Erbao, even Zhang Xiumei's clothes and small clothes have to be washed by her. Last winter, because of the beating, an unformed child was lost, and the body was injured and there was no movement. At the beginning of spring this year, many people in the village rumored that Zhang Erbao had fallen in love with Widow Du, and he might divorce his wife and remarry one day. ”
In fact, this matter is also a few words when outsiders chew the root of their tongues, after all, neither of them really caught the two of them have anything dirty. But in addition to this, the Zhao family is also a poor person, which one of the neighbors is not embarrassed? After all, there are too few daughters-in-law like her who serve a large family, and there are too few daughters-in-law who are scolded by their mother-in-law when they have miscarriages, and no matter how harsh they are, they are not as ruthless as Liu's. But after all, the matter is someone else's family, no matter how sympathetic outsiders are, it is not easy to say anything, especially Zhao himself has no opinion, when someone speaks for her for fear of upsetting her in-laws and men, she tries to prevent others from helping her reason.
Over time, everyone got used to her family's affairs. Not to mention that Zhang Erbao fell in love with the widow outside, even if he brought a small one to the house in a grand manner, they didn't think it was strange, after all, who let the Zhao family endure it?
Speaking of Widow Du, many people also know that it was Zhang Shunlai in the village who married him back for Chongxi, but Zhang Shunlai was blessed with a thin fortune, and he died of serious illness within two years of marrying his daughter-in-law. Although the imperial court does not enforce people to observe festivals in these years, they still have to keep filial piety to their ancestors for one year before they marry for the second time. And now, it seems that there is still some time left for Zhang Shunlai to have a year's life......
Xu is family has no man, so Zhang Shunlai's father and mother are quite lenient to her, in the past, she was allowed to rest and never go to the ground, but later she felt sorry for her young widow, and allowed her to go back to her parents' house for three days and two days. Naturally, she will not leave empty-handed every time, even if the Zhang family's father and mother pull the belt of their pants again, they will bring her more food.
It is also that Widow Du is young, and now she is still a lovely age, and many men in the village have beaten her idea. Naturally, there are many people who gossip and take advantage of their mouths, which provokes many women to gossip about her behind their backs.
But no one thought that the person who only took some pain in the past really spread the story that she was unclear with a man, and the words with a nose and eyes were really the same as the truth.
Lin Baozhu couldn't help but sigh secretly after listening to Aunt Tian's words, but she was afraid that things would not come out of nowhere. Zhang Erbao was originally an unreliable person, and the Liu family and Zhang Xiumei were not easy to get along, especially when they remembered Zhang Xiumei's sentence "losing money", it seemed that they didn't regard the Zhao family as a younger brother and sister at all. In such a situation, it is strange that Zhang Erbao has no outside intentions.
But after all, the matter belongs to someone else's family, if the Zhao family needs it in the future, she will naturally not be stingy and not help if she can pull it. But if it is said that she repays her grievances with virtue and takes a step back from Zhang Laohan and a few people, it is impossible.
"Baozhu, listen to the words of the eldest mother, even if you are kind-hearted, don't provoke the people over there. If you want me to say, one by one they are filthy and rotten lords, and who will blackmail them? Seeing Lin Baozhu sighing with a sympathetic and soft expression on her face, Aunt Tian hurriedly put down the work in her hand and told her carefully, "Now it's only right for you to live a good life with Manhoard, first recuperate and recuperate, and add a big fat boy to Manho in a few days, and the family can have a head in the future." ”
Lin Baozhu, who originally felt that the Zhao family was a pitiful person and must have something to hate, couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when she heard this, how could she be so good at gossiping about other people's families, Aunt Tian turned her gun and talked about her giving birth.
"Auntie......" Lin Baozhu blushed, and whispered a little. That appearance fell in the eyes of Aunt Tian, didn't it make people laugh?
"Hey, don't be ashamed, my aunt is for your good." Aunt Tian patted Lin Baozhu's hand, and said softly with an expression of "I understand, I am from here", "This is a natural thing, there is nothing to be embarrassed about." ”
Seeing that Aunt Tian was more and more happy, and the Qian family, who went to pour water, also carried the kettle into the house, Lin Baozhu hurriedly greeted her, and even screamed to her sister-in-law to slow down. That's it, the mother got together and talked without a match, and of course the topic also fell from Lin Baozhu to Qian's stomach.
