475 Zhu's vinegar daughter-in-law
Chapter 475 475 Zhu's vinegar daughter-in-law
Between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, since ancient times, there are few mothers and daughters, and there are many who are not accustomed to each other.
The momentum of the east wind and the west wind is uncertain, and when the son is the husband, he must be a wall grass, appease the old lady at the top, and be considerate of the daughter-in-law, so that the family can be harmonious.
Qingsong did a good job in the past, this time he went back to Taiping County to take office, one official has a lot of things, and the other is that Yueniang is pregnant, naturally more important than any other, busy and chaotic, he has never come back to see his father and mother for the first thing.
To talk about it, it was not a big deal, there were priorities, and it was nothing for him to cling to his daughter-in-law first, and it was a big deal to go home to see his father and mother after two days.
Some people have a lot of mouths and tongues, and they reported the good news to the old couple of Li Mingjiang: "I saw Qingsong riding a high-headed horse back, and your family can be prosperous." He said a lot of compliments such as "old lady" and "old lady", which made Zhu smile with his eyebrows, his body fluttering, and he almost flew up.
Zhu thought that since his son came back on horseback, he would definitely come to see her first, so he rushed to do some housework, and said to people everywhere: "Our Qingsong is coming back, and everyone will come to my house to eat and drink in the evening!"
Who knew that she arranged the meals in the next morning, and when it was almost dark, she didn't see Qingsong come back, no one saw or spoken, and she didn't even have a message, so Zhu was naturally unhappy in her heart.
She also felt sorry for the good wine and meat, and had the heart to drive away all the neighbors, but Li Mingjiang persuaded her: "Baba Er invited someone to dinner, because Qing Song didn't come back, and we couldn't afford to lose this person, if Qing Song came back tomorrow, where would you let him put his face?"
Therefore, he persuaded everyone: "If you want to invite everyone to come on weekdays, it is difficult to gather, take advantage of the good weather today, everyone should eat and drink, and have fun." ”
Everyone looked at the old couple and looked a little depressed, and they all changed their words: "I think there is something important to stumble, Qingsong has always been filial, we all know." ”
Although she understands Qingsong's filial piety, she also remembers the saying that "if you have a daughter-in-law, you forget your mother". Her glory and boasting in her life fell on Qingsong, for fear that Qingsong would forget her if she married her daughter-in-law, so she often had to compare with Yueniang.
You say it's funny or not, the person who is a mother-in-law wants to compete with her daughter-in-law and be jealous, which is really an unimaginable anecdotal.
The more she thought about it, the more crooked she became, thinking that Qingsong didn't come back, I was afraid that it wasn't really for Yueniang to stumble, and it was really unfilial.
As soon as everyone left that night, she cried with tears in her eyes: "Raising him so big, even if you raise a dog, you know how to love your family, he is good, throw his father and mother over the wall, and just be happy." ”
Li Mingjiang said: "Qingsong is an official, how can he walk around at will? We say that it is not far from the mountain, but it is not close, and it takes time to really walk around." Wait two days, and when he is free, he will surely come back. ”
Zhu didn't say anything, but in his heart he decided that Qingsong was not filial to her, so he was determined to win his son's heart back.
On the second day, Zhu heard that Qingsong really lived in his father-in-law's house, and he went in and out with Yueniang, which was sweeter than when he was newly married, and he couldn't help but become more and more angry. In addition, Qingsong even went to several of his sisters' houses, but he didn't go back to the mountain, and he became more and more convinced that he was "unfilial".
If it weren't for Li Mingjiang blocking her, she would have run to Liu's house unkempt and crying, so that everyone could see Yueniang, the daughter-in-law of the demon Qiaoqiao, what was Qingsong doing!
Fortunately, after a few days, Qingsong rested, put some tonic items and rushed back to the mountain, and as soon as he entered the door, he kowtowed three heads firmly, and his father and mother were startled, and hurriedly came up and pulled up, and said, "What are you doing here?"
Qingsong raised his head and smiled and said, "I haven't been at home for many years, and I haven't been able to fulfill my filial piety in front of my father and mother, what's the point of kowtowing?" He stood up, and Zhu just patted the soil on his knees, "Come back before your head, I really don't have time to go up the mountain again." I have many men and horses, and if I leave them alone in my own business, they will disobey me. ”
In just a few words, Li Mingjiang's suspicions were gone, even if Zhu's anger was half gone, he pulled Qingsong into the house, and wanted to cook meat for him, and he had to find him the insoles he had accepted a few days ago.
"Good bacon smoked at home, boiled ribs, you love to eat this! There are also dried lentils, boiled until the broth is crispy, you love to eat this soaked rice when you are a child." Zhu said with a smile.
In fact, when Qingsong was a child, how could their family have meat to eat, cooking with hemp silk dipped in oil and brushing twice in the bottom of the pot, even if the oil was put in, there were two or three times a year to cook ribs and dried beans on the top of the top, Qingsong was really hungry for meat when he was a child, and naturally loved to eat this.
Qing Song was busy asking his father and mother if he was doing, and he took off his robe again and went to the yard to chop wood.
Zhu Shi saw that he was wearing a snow-white middle coat, with no yellow traces on the collar and cuffs, it was a new dress, and he hurriedly said: "You don't need to chop firewood, you can sit and wait for dinner." ”
Qingsong is also very tired these days, and when he heard Zhu say this, he saw that the firewood pile was so high that it would not be a problem to use it for more than ten days, so he sat back.
There is no shortage of firewood in their family now, and Song Haonian hired someone to come to the house every few days to help chop firewood and do some side work, so although the old couple has no girls, they are very comfortable.
Here Zhu came up with rice, and when she saw Qingsong eating in a big gulp, she couldn't stop putting meat in her son's bowl: "Eat more." ”
Qingsong hid while eating: "Don't want it, don't give me any more clips, you and your father can eat more." ”
"Your father's teeth are not good, if you eat a bite of lean meat, you have to dig out your teeth for half a day, and I don't like to eat this, I can't chew it. "She loves fatty meat.
Zhu Shi took a piece of meat from the rib cage and put it in the green pine bowl, and said happily: "When you come back this time, you should take us down the mountain to feed?"
It stands to reason that Yueniang should be like this when she comes back, but Yueniang doesn't kiss them, she has to live with her father, and the old couple has to continue to nest in the mountains, and they can't watch their grandson be born.
Zhu thought that it would not work if it went on like this, and in the future, when his grandson was born, he would only be close to her, and he would not love her as a grandmother, so where would it be?
Qing Song choked, put down the bowl and whispered: "Mother, I haven't cleaned up there yet, I'll pick you up in a few days." ”
Obedient and listening, how can Zhu not hear that Qingsong is unhappy?
She suddenly sank her face and said angrily: "People say that your filial piety is fake filial piety, and you have a face-saving relationship, and I still go around telling people that my son is really filial, and you are so filial to us?"
Qingsong couldn't cry or laugh: "Mother, I still live in a hundred households, and I don't have a house in the county, so you just want to go, and you have to wait for me to rent a house, and then pack it up, and then invite you over." ”
This reason is also passable, Zhu nodded, and asked Qing Song'er again: "My grandson must be born in our family! His surname is Li, not Liu, what is the reason for being born in your father-in-law's family? According to me, your father-in-law is only afraid that he wants to rob my grandson, you must guard against him, if my grandson's surname is Liu, I will fight with you!"
"Mother!" Qingsong really doesn't know what to say, his father-in-law has a son and a grandson, and his granddaughter Qiongniang wanted to ask his eldest sister to talk about family affairs, Lily didn't go to the capital in the past two years, but entrusted the princess of the letter to the princess, and really gave it to someone who said that the family was about the same.
The family is not as good as Sister-in-law Liu expected, but it is not bad, it is better than the Liu family to find it alone, and it is better in that the character is dignified, not the kind of crazy and deceitful people, the mother-in-law and concubine are also quite easy to get along with, and Qiongniang is preparing to marry before Qingsong leaves Beijing.
Qiongniang's brothers have already married daughters-in-law, and the younger ones should also go to school, and they should be on errands, the descendants of the Liu family are prosperous, where do they want to rob the grandchildren of the Li family?
Liu shopkeeper's partiality is true, that day in the capital, Liu's sister-in-law half-truths and half-truths crookedly sent Yueniang several times, but the sister-in-law is a petite, and Liu's sister-in-law also knows the general situation, but she said a few words casually, and she was still close to the family after that. What's so strange about Shopkeeper Liu wanting to stay at home to give birth to a child and be confined?
Even if Qingsong and his family both lived in Liu's shopkeeper's house, he was only happy.
But the daughter-in-law and son-in-law can go to live, and there is no reason for the in-laws and mother-in-law to also go to the Liu family, so the Zhu family is not happy: "You are not his son-in-law!"
Qingsong perfunctory to his mother: "Haven't I rented a suitable house yet? Can't you wronged Yueniang carrying your grandson to live in a foot shop? ”
Qingsong had a thought in his heart, his mother really loved him, so he wanted to be filial to his mother. But Zhu is an unreasonable person, so when Zhu speaks, he only listens to his ears and doesn't take it seriously.
When Qingsong went down the mountain, he met Wenwa's father and mother again, these two days ago I didn't see Qingsong, today I listened to Qingsong return to the mountain, Tete left the tofu shop to block him, and asked Wenwa why she didn't come back.
In fact, Wenwa also wrote to say the reason: he also has a future to run, it is not good to always follow Qingsong, it is simple to mix behind Qingsong, but in the end, the two little brothers always have to divide the high, Wenwa is unwilling to always be a head lower than Qingsong.
Qingsong wants to be released, but Xu Caiwen has to stick to the capital, and the brothers rely on each other inside and outside, so that Qingsong will not be unmanned in the court. Turning back to Qingsong and returning to the capital, it is Wenwa's turn to go out, with his local experience and connections, Wenwa's road can be much better.
The two of them had already discussed their future official career with Mu San, so they just had to go step by step, and there would always be a day to come out.
Only Wenwa's father and mother suffered, Wenwa went to the capital and didn't come back for four or five years, they thought so much that they didn't care about people. Even Dou Wuniang, the daughter-in-law, has only heard the name and has never seen a real person.
Dou Wuniang is okay, she gave birth to a daughter, Wenwa's father scratched her heart and thought about her granddaughter's appearance, but she couldn't think of it, and she was really bitter in her heart.
Qingsong then softened the color, and persuaded them, and said that Xu Caiwen's daughter Weiwei was born cute, "In another year and a half, Wenwa's qualifications are enough, and she can return to her hometown to visit relatives, and when the time comes, she will bring Wu Niang and Weiwei back." ”
Wenwa's father and mother glanced at each other, and they couldn't hinder their son's future, and they were relieved and sad, and they went together. Qingsong only got on the horse, and first went to Lily's house to ask for a small jar of kimchi, "Yueniang loves to eat this, others don't make it right, and it has to be delicious here for the eldest sister." ”
He also ignored the fact that it was getting late, rode his horse back to the county seat, and hurriedly delivered the jar of kimchi to Yueniang.
