Qi Ning hurriedly made a nondescript blessing and said to everyone: "Today, I have the help of the neighbors, that mother-in-law is my aunt's original mother-in-law, she has always been a spicy and broken household, and she is used to being unreasonable, and today she was bullied to the door." Thanks to everyone's help, Qi Ning thanked him here first, and he will definitely come to the door one by one another day to thank him. ”

Wu and a few neighbors who helped were busy: "It should be, it should be, Miss Qi has been here for so long, everyone is looking at it, she has always been kind and talkative, and she has been taking care of our business for a long time, this is nothing, go back and help your aunt see if you want to ask for a doctor." So saying, everyone left. Qi Ning looked around and didn't find Wang Zhutou, it is estimated that he will go back when he sees that it is okay, after all, he can't stand for a long time now.

When the three of them returned to the store, the eldest girl was still angry: "Hmph, it's cheaper for them to run away." ”

"You, you, how can you say that it's your grandmother, how dare you fight it, once this reputation spreads, you won't be able to find your in-laws." Qi Shi poked the eldest girl's forehead with his still trembling finger and said angrily.

The big girl pretended to be in pain, and hugged her legs and hummed and screamed in pain.

"What's going on?" Qi Ning and Qi Shi were both startled, and hurriedly helped her to sit down on the stool, lifted her trouser leg and saw that there were several bruises on the thin dry calf.

Qi Shi was stunned: "This, what is this?" ”

The eldest girl pursed her lips and said, "It wasn't Zhong Erniang who kicked it." ”

Qi covered his face and cried again.

The eldest girl said indifferently: "Mother, I don't hurt at all, that Zhong Erniang is an embroidered pillow, it doesn't hurt me at all, I hit her with a bag, it hurts even more." ”

"How can this not hurt?" Qi sniffed, his voice was heavily nasal, and he covered his face and cried again.

"Mother, why are you crying, today is the happiest day in my life, I have been bullied by them for so many years, and today I finally breathed a sigh of relief." The eldest girl glanced at the crying Qi and said impatiently.

Qi Ning sighed in his heart, and arrived at the place where he ordered some liquor to rub the dredging for the eldest girl. This bun is a bun, as the saying goes, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change, Qi Ning is too lazy to persuade it.

"Hey, sister, I hurt, it hurts, light." The big girl grinned and deliberately shouted.

Qi couldn't help crying: "Didn't you say it didn't hurt?" See if you dare to fight in the future? Girls' families, do things with people on the street, and don't want to be famous. ”

"If they dare to come again, I'll beat her." The big girl clenched her fists and raised her head angrily.

Qi Shi looked at the eldest girl and felt both relieved and sad, and said, "In the end, the mother is useless." ”

Qi Ning grinded his teeth secretly, and he really didn't want to say a word. She was also upset if she talked too much, Qi was such a weak and irresponsible character, and she couldn't change it for a while.

"Mother, why are you afraid of them? Now we are no longer from the Zhong family, let alone endure it everywhere, besides, this shop belongs to my sister Ning, why let them take it for nothing, even if it goes to the yamen, we will take care of it. ”

Qi Ning put down the bowl of wine, sat beside her and said, "I'll just deliver a meal, what happened?" ”

Qi Shi showed a wry smile, looked at her cautiously and said, "Ning Ning, today you were affected by your aunt, and your aunt can't stand you and cause you trouble." ”

Qi Shi saw that Qi Ning didn't speak, lowered his head and said: "I'm working in the back, the two girls saw the big girl in the shop, they didn't do anything when they came in, they scolded indiscriminately, and they wanted to eat for nothing, but the big girl didn't give it, so they quarreled, I heard the voice come out, and just after a few words of persuasion, they pulled my hair and beat me." ”

Qi Ning looked at the stools in the room, his heart sank, and he held her hand and said, "Auntie, you have been divorced by them, and now you have nothing to do with his Zhong family, and even if you are a real relative, there is no reason to take it in vain." Turning to look at the big girl and continued: "The big girl did the right thing today, although this is my shop, but we are a family, and this is also the capital for you to settle down, but next time don't beat something, if you can't beat it, you can pinch it according to the place where the flesh does not leak on her body, and bite if you can't pinch it." It's not easy to see the injury from the outside. Anyway, there is only one, you can't suffer a loss, if they dare to make trouble in the future, they will clean up to death, and if you have something to do, sister will bear it for you. After speaking, he wiped the wound on Qi's face with a handkerchief dipped in wine, but fortunately, the injury was not deep and would not break the appearance.

Qi Shi looked at the two sisters who came and went, apologized without thinking about it, and said with a forced smile: "Ning Ning, my aunt is here to accompany you, it's all my fault." Even the eldest girl couldn't help but feel a little resentful when she heard this, she didn't ask the reason, she didn't distinguish between right and wrong, and took the responsibility on herself, has her mother been squeezed for a long time, or is she really cowardly?

They don't know how important their son is to a woman, Rao is Qi's father and brother are both talented, no matter how high she is, she has married into the Zhong family for more than ten years, and her son has not given birth to one, so she can't straighten her waist and raise her head. Because of this, she didn't dare to say or complain, that is, her daughter had to do so much housework every day at a young age, and she was often beaten by Zhong Su's mother, and she didn't dare to stand up and say a word, she would only bow her head and protect herself, and try to let the stick and slap fall on herself.

Seeing Qi's uncompetitive appearance, Qi Ning and the eldest girl couldn't let out their anger.

Seeing that the eldest girl and Qi Ning didn't speak, Qi Shi hurriedly explained: "This daughter's family must be obedient and filial piety, you are so spicy, or a daughter without a father, once there is a bad reputation, which mother-in-law will dare to ask you to be a daughter-in-law in the future?" ”

Qi Ning heard that the fire that had just been suppressed arched again: "Auntie is willing to be angry, don't pull me, I don't have a father, but I can't be a dwarf because I don't have a father, and whoever is doing it will." I never bully people, and it's even more impossible for others to bully me. After saying that, he went back to the counter and grabbed the ledger and looked at it.

Qi opened his mouth, sighed, cleaned up the scattered tables and chairs, wiped his tears and went back to work in the backyard alone.

The eldest girl showed a hint of sarcasm on her face: "I think what my sister said is very right, no one will want to bully me in the future, and I can't bully you, if anyone bullies us, I will risk my life to fight with them." After saying that, he limped into the courtyard as well.

Qi Ning was a little embarrassed and smiled alone, she took the initiative to leave this Baozi aunt, it seems that she was asking for trouble, it is really better to give her more silver to help her find a job.

In the evening, Qi Ning still carried two dishes and a meal to Wang Zhutou: "Brother Wang, thank you for today's incident, if it weren't for you, those two scoundrels might not have made a fuss for a while." ”

In exchange, it was still a hum. Qi Ning got used to it, wiped the tables, chairs and benches, cleaned up the dirty clothes on the kang and went to the yard to wash and dry.

When I came back and took the dishes and chopsticks, I just walked to the door, and a voice came from behind me: "Did the girl ever marry her mother-in-law?" ”

"Huh?" Qi Ning thought she had misheard.

"Has the girl ever promised to be married?"

Qi Ning was stunned, for the first time in these days, he carefully looked at the face of the man sitting on the kang, Wang Zhu's head under the light, his hair was faintly shiny like black jade, his angular face was full of gentleness that he had never seen before, thick black eyebrows, shining eyes like a pool of water looking at her with deep meaning, a tall nose, thin lips, well-shaped lips, and wheat-colored skin. In modern parlance, it's a straight man with bursting hormones. Qi Ning tried to look away, and his breathing was almost forgotten.

"No, I was born on Halloween, people are afraid of me, and no one dares to propose marriage to me." Qi Ning shook her head self-deprecatingly.

"Will you marry me?"

"What? What's what? Qi Ning was a little dizzy, did this person propose to her? Looking at him with a solemn look doesn't look like a joke.

"If the girl doesn't want to, forget it." Wang Zhutou cleared his throat in embarrassment, and turned his head to look at the flickering oil lamp on the cabinet.

"Well, what, that, Brother Wang, I respect you very much, but I have no plans to talk about marriage at the moment, my goal now is to make money hard and buy a few more shops. Besides, I'm still in the filial piety period. ”

"What are you doing with so many shops?"

"If there are more shops, I don't have to work hard to sell pig intestines every day, and then I will lie on the chair at home and drink tea and wait for the rent to be happy, and being a happy rice worm is my goal in this life." Qi Ning blinked slyly.

"From tomorrow onwards, you don't have to bring me food, I'll eat in the yamen. You estimate the cost of these days, and you will be given any extra rent. Wang Zhutou's voice turned cold.

"No, no, it doesn't cost a lot of money to eat, we have to cook three meals a day anyway, but add more rice." Thanks to Brother Wang's care these days, I have saved me a lot of trouble, and I don't know how to thank you. Qi Ning stammered and walked away with a face red into an apple.
