"Sister-in-law, are you going out?" Liu was holding the child, and his face was not good-looking.

Lan Yi was going to go to the hillside, but when she saw Liu like this, she knew that she had something to say, "No, I just came back from the back hillside, let's go into the house and sit." ”

Liu followed Lan Yi back to the house and sat on the kang without speaking.

Lan Yi took off Wen Xuan's shoes and let him play on the kang, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Liu bit his lip, with tears in his eyes, "Sister-in-law...... It is said that the daughter is the mother's little padded jacket, and the son is the mother's heart, no matter how warm this little padded jacket is, it can't compare to the heart! ”

After Liu finished speaking, the teardrops fell one by one and fell on the small quilt of Sanniuniu, "This heart can't be wronged a little, the cotton jacket will be worn on others sooner or later!" When I get married, I'm afraid that the bride price will be less than enough, let alone the daughter who is married! Sister-in-law, let's be a concubine, my life is miserable! Sister-in-law, your mother-in-law came all the way to prepare your dowry for the sake of your relatives, getting up early and greedy at night; Every time the second sister-in-law's mother comes to the door, no matter what she does, she is more or less carrying a meeting gift and smiling with something. My mother is good, every time she comes to the door with two empty hands, she opens her mouth and asks for silver, and if I give less, she scolds me for having no conscience! ”

Lan Yi frowned and got angry when she heard it, it really sounds like every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. Liu's mother's family is indeed a headache, others don't talk about it, just her cunning and greedy mother-in-law is very superb.

"Third brother and sister, is your mother here? I remember your little brother getting married this month, right? ”

The Liu family has a total of five sisters and brothers, she is the eldest sister, and there are three younger brothers and one younger sister below. Her two twin brothers have been able to kiss. The third brother also got married in September. It is said that it is time to marry a daughter-in-law, and Liu's mother-in-law, Zhao, should be very busy.

"Not only my mother is here, but my second brother is also here. I came in a big ox cart! Liu Shi took out a handkerchief to wipe his nose and tears, and his lips trembled, "Sister-in-law, do you know what they are doing with the car, come to pull things!" ”

Lan Yi's brain is a little insufficient, this is too big in autumn, Liu's mother and brother came all the way to her daughter with a big ox cart to pull things. What can use a big ox cart?

"Pull something? Did your mother ask you to help buy your daughter-in-law's belongings? ”

Liu shook his head, took a deep breath, and said with red eyes. "Pull the peony seedlings! Without telling me, he pulled the car and came! If I hadn't made a fuss at home, they would have gone to the hillside to dig their own seedlings. Fortunately, now that the family is divided, I live in a yard by myself, and if I live together, my parents-in-law will listen to it......"

Lan Yi was speechless. It turned out that they were fighting this idea again. "Third brother and sister, I can't figure it out, this peony seedling is not as valuable as last year, and they can't make much money by pulling it back and reselling it."

Uncle Wang raised three acres of peony seedlings on the hillside last year and now it is time to emerge, this year's peony seedlings are not as high as last year's price, last year's most expensive time to 20 yuan a tree, this year is two yuan three trees. Peony seedlings are cheaper because last year, many flower farmers saw that it was profitable to cultivate peony seedlings of these two oil varieties, and increased the area of seedlings. In the case of both supply and demand, supply is more than demand. The price of natural peony seedlings has dropped.

Liu started crying again, "I said the same thing!" But my mother just didn't follow, and said cruelly, if I didn't give her a cart of peony seedlings, she would personally find her in-laws to go. scolded me again and again for being a white-eyed wolf, only caring about living a good life for myself! Sister-in-law, tell me, is there such a mother, if she really makes trouble, how will I live in the future! ”

Lan Yi poured a glass of warm water for Liu's family, took the three Niu Niu who was babbling and waving her little arms, and comforted, "Third brother and sister, don't worry about getting on fire first, you are breastfeeding the child now, if you are on fire, the three Niu Niu will follow the fire milk, if she also follows the fire, it will be troublesome." Come, drink some water first. ”

When Liu heard Lan Yi say this, he cried even more fiercely, and Wen Xuan next to him saw the third aunt like this, and also ran over to pat her on the back and wipe her tears.

Lan Yi knew that she had too many grievances in her heart, so it was good to vent it. Liu's is a strong person, and her mother's family came to the door like this, so it's no wonder she can stand it!

"Third aunt, don't cry." Wen Xuan wiped Liu's tears with his sleeve, learned his mother's movements when he cried, touched Liu's head, and patted her on the back one by one, "Don't cry." ”

Seeing Wen Xuan like this, Liu pulled him into his arms and hugged him, and gradually stopped crying.

"Third brother and sister, what about the second girl, follow her grandmother?"

"No, I asked her to stay at home with my grandmother." Liu Shi picked up the cup and took a few sips of water, "I have to go back after sitting for a while, sister-in-law, I can't tell others about these things, I can only come to you and talk about ......"

Lan Yi nodded, she couldn't tell her mother-in-law and the Chen family about this, and only she was more suitable here.

"I remember you said that last year, it was your eldest brother who came to pull the peony seedlings back for resale?" Lan Yi knew that the Liu family came to her, in addition to crying, she also wanted to hear if she had any ideas, so she began to ask, after all, there were still people at home, and the Liu family couldn't stay longer.

"It's my uncle's lobby brother, our old Liu family has three generations, and he has the most crooked ideas!" Liu gritted his teeth and said, "My second brother follows him every day, this saying is right, gold is like gold, jade is like jade, next to the quasi-long Ganoderma lucidum grass in the Jinluan Palace, and next to the quasi-long dog urine moss in the stinky thatched house!" My second brother learned all the crooked ideas from him! ”

Liu's second brother Lan Yi has not seen it, but her second brother and sister Lan Yi have seen it when the third girl is full moon. She was actually greedy for money, and took advantage of everyone's inattention to reach out and want to steal the silver jewelry that everyone threw into the washbasin, and was found to be not red and panting, which shows how she is a person. Now that I hear Liu talk about her second brother, it seems that this couple is about the same.

Lan Yi took a deep breath, this is even more difficult, such a second brother came over, I am afraid it will not be easy to send away.

"Third brother and sister, what are you going to do?"

Liu Shi wilted after crying, and there was nothing he could do, "What good way can I do with such a mother's family, I can only scrape together the money in my hand to them." ”

Lan Yi nodded lightly, after all, it was Liu's mother and brother who came, she could complain or scold herself, Lan Yi said that it was not good to be heavy here, "Then did they say how much silver they wanted this time?" I remember that the full moon of the three girls was your mother who said that she wanted you to pay a hundred taels, right? ”

Liu nodded, "That time it was said that the third brother was going to marry a daughter-in-law, and the woman heard that the third brother had an eldest sister who took advantage of the money, so she asked for a dowry of sixty taels of silver!" Sixty taels, the dowry of ten taels when I got married was already up to the sky! Lin Yuan entered the door in order to marry me, but he was stripped of three layers of skin by my mother, if I hadn't cried and bought a dowry of four taels of silver, I wouldn't have the face to enter the door of Lao Wang's house.
