Chapter 237: Mother can't be wrong
When the hijab was revealed, the eldest daughters and daughters-in-law of the Li family looked at the Wang family, who bowed their heads and wept, and faced Begonia, and they didn't say a word for a long time, saying that Li Fugui was a blessing that he had cultivated for eight lifetimes to marry such a good daughter-in-law.
When the Wang family was sent in, there was a maid and a maid to serve her, but the day after she entered, the Wang family took all the maids and daughter-in-law away when they left. When leaving, the maids and mothers-in-law were crying and their eyes were swollen, and the Wang family also held a mother-in-law's hand and refused to let go.
After the Wang family entered the door, Li Fugui no longer went out to work, and stayed at home to go to the field with Lao Li. As the new daughter-in-law, few people in the village saw Wang go out, even if the daughters-in-law in the village went to visit the door, Wang was locked in the house by himself and did not come out, and occasionally showed his head and rarely chatted with the villagers, with a polite and alienated attitude. On the contrary, Li Chen's family was ruthless for a while, walking around the village in new clothes every day, and when he met people, he would say that his daughter-in-law's dowry was like that, and how filial he was to her.
It didn't take long for the Li family to start building the house, and the Li Chen family said how much silver the daughter-in-law's family had given, saying that they wanted their old couple to enjoy happiness. Not long after the house was built, Li Chen's family asked people to go around to tell Li Er's lame daughter-in-law. Lao Li's family built a new house, and promised that the daughter-in-law would give a bride price of ten taels of silver, and the daughter-in-law would also build a neat and tidy yard this year, so although Li Er's cripple was disabled, he quickly said that he was a family, and the Tang family also entered the door not long after.
Not long after Tang entered the door, Wang was about to give birth. Wang's body was weak, and it took a day and a night to give birth to Yu'er with his last breath. Li Fugui learned that his wife had died at that time, and cried bitterly outside the house. After Yu'er was full moon, he put down his hoe and went to work in the city, and rarely came back.
Poor Yu'er. I haven't eaten a mouthful of my mother's milk, if it weren't for Old Man Li bringing back a dairy goat, I'm afraid it would be difficult to survive. Li Chen's family has been depressed for a long time since Wang's death, and Tang's family is even more lazy to take care of the weak child in the swaddling clothes, so it is better to say that Yu'er was brought up by Li Chen's family, and it is better to be brought up by Old Man Li.
In the sixth year of Puhe, Li Tiangui went home for the New Year, and when he went to his wife's grave, he couldn't afford to be sick when he came back. went more than two months later, and Yu'er really became a child without a father and a mother.
Old man Li was heartbroken because of the death of his eldest son, coupled with Fang Shi's words, he also attributed the cause of his son's death to Yu'er, and no longer cared about him, Yu'er's situation in the Li family became more and more difficult, until Li Er's lame man lost the money and hit him with his idea, and was saved by Lan Yi.
Lan Yi clenched her fists after listening. Holding back tears.
Zhou Yue'e wiped her tears, "Yu'er, this child, has never worn a clean dress since he was a child. When he was two years old, the Tang family added a son to the Li family, and his grandmother and second aunt became more and more unkind to see him. The child learned to walk at the age of two. His grandmother thought he was running around, so she dug a hole more than a foot deep in the yard and let him play by himself in the pit. I only hugged it when I was eating. When Yu'er was four years old, she began to work with pigweed. At that time, he was not even a basket high. I often ask Ziqi to help him, and bring him some food by the way. ”
Lan Yi burst into tears and choked up, "Second sister, the people in the village don't like Yu'er, is it also because of Fang Shi's words?" ”
Zhou Yue'e wiped her tears, "It's not all." The older Yu'er this kid gets, the less like the Li family becomes, everyone says that he is not the Li family's species, and the older generation of the Li family is less and less interested in seeing him. ”
"What about the people on Yu'er's grandmother's side, no one came to take care of Yu'er like this?" Listening to it, I know that the Wang family is in a good situation, and when she got married, she had a bunch of dowries and thirty taels of silver subsidies, which showed that her maiden family treated her well.
Zhou Yue'e also frowned, "Speaking of this, it is even more difficult to figure out, when Yu'er's mother was pregnant with Yu'er, the Wang family only came to a carriage at the end of the first year, and brought a large cart of things over, except for the coachman, it was a lady with an old woman, Yu'er's grandmother said that the lady was Yu'er's grandmother, and the two of them stayed for less than an hour. Yu'er and his mother were buried after her death, and no one from the Wang family came, and at the end of that year, a carriage came, and I heard that the Wang family died, and left without even entering the door. ”
This is indeed very abnormal, Lan Yi then asked: "This family surnamed Wang lives in Huangxian County?" ”
Zhou Yue'e shook her head, "No, I heard that he lives in Dengzhou City, but we don't know where it is." ”
Lan Yi's mind was in a mess, and while feeling sorry for Yu'er, she was thinking about the unusualness of the Wang family. Zhou Yue'e suddenly lowered her voice again and said: "On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I heard the Tang family and Li Er's cripple arguing, and the quarrel became louder and louder, saying that the old Li family had deceived her. I happened to be in the yard at the time, and guess what I heard? ”
Lan Yi shook her head.
Zhou Yue'e didn't really want her to answer anything, and then said: "It turns out that Yu'er's mother didn't only accompany her with thirty taels of silver when she got married, but the Wang family also promised to give the Li family twenty taels of silver every year, so that they can take good care of Wang's mother and son." Yu'er and his grandmother came that time to deliver silver. After Yu'er's mother passed away, the Wang family refused to give any more silver, I listened to the meaning of the Tang family, when the Li family married her and entered the door, they promised to give her five taels of silver every year. ”
Is there such a thing? It seems that the Wang family doesn't care about the Wang family, but they don't look at Yu'er after Wang's death, they are disgusted with Yu'er? Why?
Zhou Yue'e continued, "That's all I know, Fourth Uncle Li's family is having a hard time, and now that they're eyeing you, they won't let go, you should be vigilant." Don't meet such people when you encounter things, they are barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, and you can't get angry with them. If they really dare to come, you let Wei Ji deal with it, don't look at Wei Ji's silence, he was muddy when he was a child, and he has his own way of dealing with such people. ”
After Zhou Yue'e left, Lan Yi couldn't help but lie on the kang and cry for a while, before venting the grievances and sorrows in her heart, and went to Uncle Wang's house for dinner after freshening up.
Through the fence, she saw Yu'er and Wenxuan following behind Second Uncle Wang, helping him hold the grass to feed the sheep. Second Aunt Wang and Jia Shi sat in the courtyard chatting, everyone was smiling, and the happy smile on Yu'er's face made Lan Yi couldn't help but redden.
"Mother, mother," Yu'er saw her, waving the grass in her hand and shouted, "The second grandfather said that the ewes in the pen also have cubs, and they will be able to give birth to lambs in a few months." ”
Wen Xuan corrected beside him: "Brother, the second grandfather said that it is not 'raw', it is 'down' cub." ”
Yu'er frowned and said seriously, "If my mother says that she is born, she will not be wrong." (To be continued......)
