154. Chapter 154: The Maids
Chapter 154
It turns out that Yuan Changqing is not omnipotent, and he guessed wrong about Wufu's reaction.
Shanniang originally wanted to tell Wufu herself, but now Yuan Changqing saw her closely, so she had to let Mother Li tell Wufu. And Wufu exploded when he heard it, and Shanniang, who was sitting under the window in the west room, heard her surprised voice, "What?!" β
It's not Xiu Mu today, Yuan Changqing has already gone to the government at this time, but before leaving, he gave the job of watching Shanniang to Lu'an, who was dead-eyed.
Shanniang sat quietly in the main room first, listening to the movements of Mother Li and Wufu. But after Wufu screamed, there was no movement. Shanniang was so curious that she put on her shoes and got off the kang, and was just about to lift the curtain to go out of the house, Lu'an, who was sitting in the hall embroidering flowers, hurriedly put down the embroidery shed in her hand, greeted her and smiled: "What does grandma want?" Seeing that Shanniang ignored her, she was going outside, Lu'an was in a hurry, like a loyal dog who resolutely carried out the master's orders, stopped in front of the door curtain, and persuaded Shanniang: "Grandma, don't go out, it's cold outside." And there is still snow on the porch that has not been cleaned, so be careful of falling. β
Shanniang glanced at her angrily and said, "I know that the snow has not been cleared, why are you still here?" β
Lu'an said seriously: "Ye told me to look at grandma." β
"Ha, you're a jailer!" Shanniang poked a finger on her head, and called Wufu through the curtain.
Wufu came over after a while, and his face was still very ugly. Seeing Shanniang looking at her with such a smile, she immediately blushed, glared at Shuangyuan's eyes, which were one size taller than others, and said, "Grandma also looks at me and laughs!" β
Shanniang looked at Lu'an and smiled at her: "Okay, I have something to say to Wufu, you go out." Seeing Lu'an's look of disbelief in her, Shanniang gritted her teeth and said, "Whose girl are you?!" Why don't you listen to me, but only listen to the uncle?! Quick, get out! I have something to say to Wufu. And he said, "Can't I go out if I don't go out?!" β
Seeing that Shanniang made a guarantee, Lu'an went out with her embroidery shed.
"Dead-eyed girl!" Shanniang shook her head and scolded her, then turned back to Wufu and smiled: "I didn't come to see your jokes, I am an old man." There are girls in my family who have just grown up, and there are people who can look at your frizzy girl. β
Wufu was annoyed when he heard this, and crossed his waist and said, "Where am I wrong?!" β
"It's not bad, it's just that I'm a little quick-tempered," Shanniang teased her, "but in other words, we also call it impatience and righteousness." β
Sanhe happened to come in with hot water, and when he heard Shanniang's words, he laughed out loud.
Wufu didn't dare to turn his face with Shanniang, it was still a matter of minutes to make trouble with Sanhe, and he was about to screw Sanhe when he rushed over, "Let you see my joke!" β
Sanhe hurriedly raised the teapot in his hand, "Look at the hot!" β
Shan Niang waved her hand and said to the two, "I have something to ask you." As he spoke, he led the two into the inner room, sat on the kang again, and asked Sanhe Wufu: "You are both one year older than me, and when the New Year is over, you will be nineteen, and you should think about your own affairs." I ask you, what are your plans? β
This was the first time that Shanniang had taken the initiative to ask them about their plans for the future.
Xu was too lenient in her previous life, and in this life, she can be said to be "herding sheep and eating grass" to her family. Generally speaking, as long as the general direction is not bad, she will not ask - and, in her previous life, she worked hard like that, and her family was still like a plate of scattered sand, and everyone under her staff had their own plans. In this life, she doesn't ask anything, and the family is united ruthlessly, and there are few times when there is intrigue. Often, even if there is a dispute, it is always on the surface, and there is no personal grudge.
Although she doesn't seem to care about anything, in fact, as the head of the house, any bit of wind and grass in the family, Shanniang's heart is like a mirror. For example, she knows who is good with whom in the family, who is wrong with whom, and what kind of signs are there with whom. She knew that Sanhe and Liangfeng were better, but because Liangfeng was two years younger than Sanhe, Sanhe had scruples; There is also Mother Li, although Uncle Hua has returned to the house in Ruyifang now, he still often finds excuses to come to Mother Li, but her nurse is "once bitten by a snake, and she is afraid of the well rope for ten years", and now she no longer dares to have that kind of thought; As for Yan Feng, she could naturally see that he liked Wufu, but Wufu was obviously not enlightened yet...... Therefore, when Yuan Changqing swore like that, Shanniang only squeaked and looked at his jokes.
When Shanniang asked the two of them like this, Sanhe lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking, but Wufu twisted his neck and said, "I don't understand, do women have to marry?" Why do you want to get married? Isn't it nice to be alone? I just need to take care of myself now, and if I get married, I will have to take care of the family's food, drink, and Lazar. I'm so tired all day long that I don't talk about it, whether it's good or bad depends on their faces, and if I meet a mess again, I should be like Mother Li......"
She suddenly shrunk her neck, hurriedly ran to the door and looked out of the door, turned around and said with the tip of her tongue and suppressed her voice: "Mother Li is not here, right?" β
"You know!" Sanhe glanced at her, and smiled at Shanniang again: "The peach blossom cake made in the kitchen last time, the uncle said that the taste was not as good as that made by grandma, and Mother Tian didn't dare to disturb grandma, so she took Mama Li to teach her." Then he turned back to Wufu and said, "What do you say is the use of those?" It is a matter of course for men to marry women, but it is not a matter of not marrying if you don't want to. He added, "This is our Great Zhou, if it is changed to the previous dynasty, I heard that if you are eighteen years old and have not married, the court will marry the hard-working!" β
"That's right," said Shanniang, "it's written in the history books. β
"Women are not animals!" Wufu pouted, "Know what I think?" I always feel that this marriage and marriage are all ideas come up with by men's families, but they just want to find an old mother who doesn't want to pay for themselves! For example, my father, who is lazy and lazy, is good every day as long as he has wine, and once he runs out of wine, he slams the table and hits the bench, as if my mother owes him wine! Everything inside and outside the house is in charge of my mother, obviously he doesn't do anything, but when it comes to him being the head of the house, my mother can't say a word. My brother wants to marry a daughter-in-law, he is as lazy as my father, and he can't earn his wife's book, so he is eyeing me and wants to exchange me for a wife. Fortunately, I was only seven years old at that time, and the people he liked didn't look down on me, so I didn't ask him to change it. Later, my mother saw that there was no way, so she asked someone to bring me to the city, and then I entered the house and served my grandmother. It's also a shame that I entered the city, otherwise I'm afraid that I will have to be like my mother again in this life, and I will only regard this as my fate for the rest of my life! β
Sanhe paused and said with a smile: "Actually, not all men are like that, when you get married, you can wipe your eyes." For example, our uncle," she said with a smile as she looked at Shanniang, "I am afraid that there is no one in this world who is more accustomed to our grandmother than him." β
Shanniang, who was about to reach out for the teapot, heard this, and immediately turned around and said, "Why is he used to me?" In fact, if I follow my wishes, it would be freer not to marry for the rest of my life. As Wufu said, I just need to take care of myself. It's good now, I have to think about what he's going to say before I do anything, and now ......."
She looked down at her flat belly. It's really strange, yesterday she was still embarrassed because of the child in her belly who might be in her previous life, but when Yuan Changqing said last night that it might not be, she suddenly felt an inexplicable loss in her heart. And such a entanglement made her feel calm when she thought of the piece of meat in her belly againβit was really the child from her previous life, and probably there would never be another like that between their mother and son. After all, she is no longer the same person she used to be......
While she was pondering, Wufu was talking to Sanhe, "Look, even grandma said that!" I'm not going to marry anyway! β
Shanniang raised her head and smiled: "Don't use me as an excuse, whether you like to marry or not, it's your own business, and it has nothing to do with me." As I said earlier, no one can replace anyone else by going their own way. I'm just asking you if you want to get married. If you want to marry, I will prepare for you, if you don't want to marry, then don't marry. I don't have to be afraid that I won't be able to explain to my uncle here because my uncle values Yanfeng. β
In the previous life, she was too good as a teacher, and she always felt that others who thought she was good should also think that it was good, but in this life, she has always remembered that everyone should do their best first, and for other people's affairs, they may be able to give advice, but they must not interfere. Because, that's someone else's own life.
Wufu clasped his palms together and said with a smile: "What I want is grandma's words!" As long as my grandmother doesn't drive me away, I'll die with my grandmother. β
"But there's one thing I have to ask clearly," said Shanniang again, "You don't plan to marry in your life?" Or do you just don't want to marry Yanfeng? β
"Anyway, now I don't want to get married!" Wufu has always been a big-hearted person, and he never thinks as far as Sanhe. And, as soon as she mentioned Yan Feng's name, she really gritted her teeth again, and crossed her waist and said angrily: "That Yan Feng, is there something wrong with it?!" Every time I met him, he had to hurt me before he was willing, I thought he hated me as much as I hated him, why couldn't he tell his uncle that he wanted to marry me?! Did he get his head caught in the door?! Which eye did he see that I meant that to him?! β
Sanhe smiled: "Don't you also have brothers in your family?" Why can't you understand this? Sometimes boys are like that, they like you but can't say it, so they deliberately make you angry, just to want you to pay attention to him. He smiled again, "At this point, Yanfeng has done it." Every time you touch him in the outer court, we will know. β
"Huh!" Shanniang also smiled, "As long as you touch him, you will definitely scold him for several days when you come back." It can be seen that his method is still quite effective, and I haven't seen you mention the names of other boys in your mouth again. β
She and Sanhe teased Wufu, and said Wufu in a hurry, stomped her feet and said, "Where did I not mention others?!" For example, the cool breeze," she looked at Sanhe, "I didn't miss a message for him!" β
Wufu suddenly covered his mouth and looked at Shanniang with blinking eyes. Although the matter of Liangfeng and Sanhe is almost an open secret at home, it has never been put on the table, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a private affair......
Shanniang tilted her head with a smile, looked at Sanhe and said, "Yes, don't keep talking about Wufu, what are your plans?" Are you going to keep it unclear like this? β
Wufu heard that Shanniang didn't mean to blame, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Sanhe and smiling apologetically.
But she didn't know that compared to her arrogant, Sanhe had always had a good idea. In fact, as early as after she and Liang Feng had a tacit understanding with each other, she had secretly revealed her mouth to Shanniang, and even shed tears in front of Shanniang because she was two years older than Liang Feng.
Now seeing Shanniang asking, Sanhe Luoluo said generously: "I wanted to find an opportunity to ask for the grace of grandma and uncle, but there have been many things recently, and grandma has joy again, so we thought, wait until the end of the New Year." Now that my grandmother asked, I didn't hide it from my grandmother, he asked me if I was willing, and I agreed. He smiled again, "He originally said that he was going to speak to the uncle, but Yan Feng took the lead." β
Actually, here's the thing. Among Yuan Changqing's four little guys, Yan Feng is the most eloquent, and Liang Feng is more stuffy, he was afraid that he would not be able to speak, so he went to Yan Feng to ask for ideas, but he didn't want this topic to immediately arouse Yan Feng's mind two years older than him, Liang Feng was still hesitating how to talk to his uncle and grandmother, Yan Feng couldn't hold it back, and he actually opened his mouth to Yuan Changqing first...... It's just that he was doomed to disappointment.
Probably Liang Feng didn't expect it, he was still thinking about how to talk to the uncle and grandmother, Sanhe had already seized the opportunity to tell Shanniang first.
Shanniang was curious: "Didn't you hesitate before that you were two years older than him?" Why don't you hesitate now? β
Sanhe sighed: "I hesitated before because I felt that he was younger than me, and I was afraid that he would change his mind later." Now that it's been two years, he's still the same as he was at the beginning, and I think I should believe him. β
Shanniang was silent for a while. In her previous life, she had resented that no one was willing to give her a chance, but in fact, after being reborn, she didn't plan to give Yuan Changqing a chance. It was only a series of mistakes and Yuan Changqing's persistence that brought them to where they are now. And, in fact, it wasn't that she gave him a chance, but she actually gave herself a chance, a chance to realize her past dreams......
Give people another chance, maybe they will hurt themselves again, but maybe, this time there will be a different result?
I only heard Sanhe smile at Wufu and said: "You just said that you are serving the old and the young, you don't know, they are all orphans, and there is no old and young one in the family to serve you." β
Shanniang also said: "I don't advise you anything, but I only advise you, give yourself a chance, the wind is not bad." β
Wufu has always been stubborn, even after listening to the words of Shanniang and Sanhe, he only rolled his eyes and didn't go to his heart.
Shanniang and Sanhe both knew that Wufu was the kind of person who did not go away and went backwards, and they were afraid that the child would be rebellious if they were persuaded to do so, so they didn't talk about it anymore, but pointed to other things and talked about it.
While gossiping, Lu'an ran in and said, "Brother Yanfeng came in and said he wanted to see grandma." β
Shanniang looked at Wufu, whose face changed abruptly, and asked, "Is there anything wrong with him?" β
Today, when Yuan Changqing went out, it was Jingfeng and the strong wind, and the hot wind and cool breeze were all left at home.
Lu'an has always been a little afraid of Wufu, so he looked at Wufu carefully, and said, "I said that I apologized to my grandmother and sister Wufu......"
Shanniang thought about it, looked up at Wufu again, and smiled at Wufu: "I don't need him to apologize here, he is indeed reckless, and I owe you an apology." Why don't you go and see him, or I won't see him. "βMoreover, when Yan Feng came in, it was evident that he had not come to see her. Shanniang is still very clear about this.
When Wufu heard this, he immediately rolled up his sleeves and said, "Okay, I'll meet him!" β
Shanniang hurriedly said to her back: "Don't beat people!" After saying that, he laughed first.
