Chapter 302: Dream Tapir and Canned Peaches (9)
γγ
Speaking of canned food made of peaches, Bai Li immediately became greedy.
The midsummer in my memory is always related to peaches. Mom's favorite to eat July Immortal, the skin is thin and the meat is thick, and the bite is soft and soft, and the mouth is full of sweetness. As for her, when she was a child, she liked to eat crispy peaches, the kind that could hear the sound when she took a bite. When I grew up, my taste changed, and I began to like to eat the kind of canned yellow peaches that are cold and cold, but feel very sweet when you bite into them.
Thanks to the blessing of her ancestors, in her original era, canned yellow peaches were available all year round, and they could be bought anytime and anywhere. But canned food is still different from canned food, some of them are particularly fresh and delicious, and some are just like Bai Zefang said, the taste is average, and the entrance is a little sour and bitter.
Bai Li was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard a muffled rumbling sound, and the surroundings were pitch black for a moment.
"Bai Ze!"
"Madame, don't be afraid, I'm here!"
"What's going on?"
"I'm sorry, I didn't control it for a while, and let the dream collapse."
"Dream collapse?" Bai Li fumbled, until he touched Bai Ze's hand, and then settled down: "Can this dream collapse crush people?" β
"Can't!" Bai Ze had a smile in his voice: "With me protecting you, the king of Hades doesn't dare to invite people." β
"Look at what you can!" Bai Li covered Bai Ze's hand: "Where are we now?" Still not in the dream of the cat master? β
"It's a dream, but it shouldn't be the cat's." As soon as Bai Ze finished speaking, Bai Li heard a familiar voice.
It's Ah Chang, it's Ah Chang, the dead man I just saw.
But listening to this voice, he was clearly alive.
As she was pondering, a light lit up in front of her eyes, and after looking closely, Bai Li was shocked to realize that she and Bai Ze were nesting in a box right now. The bright light that suddenly appeared in front of him was because Bai Ze secretly lifted the lid of the box, letting the candlelight in the room let in.
"Mother, what should I do, I don't want to marry the blind one of the Mei family."
"Won't you marry? That cat master doesn't look like a good offend. Besides, he also gave us a lot of silver, and even your father's grave was chosen by him. Think about it, is our family's life much better since the appearance of this cat master? β
"It's a good day, but no matter how good it is, you can't put my lifelong happiness into it."
"How do you talk like a child, what does it mean that your mother has put your lifelong happiness into it. I've seen that girl in the Mei family, and there is nothing wrong with it except that she can't see with her eyes. Not to mention anything else, just her appearance is also outstanding in our Huaxi Town. She just can't see with her eyes, and it's not that she can't do anything else, so she can't delay you anything. β
"If anyone else knew that I had married a blind man, they would have laughed at me."
"Whoever loves jokes will let them laugh, what's wrong with listening to two laughs?" Ah Changniang shook her face: "Listening to others laugh twice won't let us drop our silver, let alone let us drop a piece or two of meat." If you really feel wronged, my mother promises you, when the blind man passes the door, we get their Mei family's property, and my mother will give you a concubine. Whoever you like, your mother will accept whomever you like. As for that Mei Niang, if you really think it's an eyesore, just find a reason to take a break. The cat master only said that he would let you marry Mei Niang, but he didn't say that he would not let you leave Mei Niang. β
"Will this work?" Ah Chang asked, his tone obviously hesitant.
Ah Changniang said: "Why can't it work, listen to my mother, marry that Mei Niang first." When she enters our door, my mother has a way to toss her. The custodian told her that she couldn't get out for half a year, and took the initiative to ask you for a divorce. This Mei Niang doesn't look down on our family, and she takes the initiative to leave, so we can't stop it, right? β
"Then I'll listen to my mother!"
"Well, it's right to listen to my mother."
The candlelight outside flickered and went out.
Just as Bai Li fumbled to open the lid of the wooden box and go out to take a look, the candlelight turned on again.
Ah Chang's voice came again, but this time it was a little impatient.
"Mother, I can't stand it, I really can't stand it. Just that Mei Niang, every time she touches her, it's like asking for her life. I'm obviously her husband, she's obviously my wife, so I'm like a villain. Other people's ladies are all gentle like water, and they are all husbands who change their ways to please their own children, but she is good, like a chaste martyr. I know, I said that I Ah Chang used eight sedan chairs to marry back. I don't know, I thought she was snatched back by me. β
"Mother knows, mother knows your grievances, mother is not trying to find a way."
"I still have to think of a way, I'll just write a letter of divorce and take her back to her parents' house." Ah Chang shouted angrily.
"You're stupid! Have you forgotten the money she took out? I guess it was all given to her by the cat master. β
"Cat master, cat master, it's that cat master again. I thought he was kind enough to let me marry Mei Niang, but now I know that this Mei Niang has some unclear relationship with him. He didn't want it himself, so he casually gave our family some silver and sent Mei Niang to our house. I don't care, I just want to take a break from Mei Niang. β
"Mei Niang is definitely going to take a break, but before that, we have to find a way to cheat all the money in Mei Niang's hand. No, it's not a lie, it's a take. Since she married into our family, then hers is ours, and we should want it. As for divorce from a wife, it can't be the divorce method you said. In case you give her the letter of resignation, she will run to the yamen to sue us, and everything we ate before will be spit out. You don't feel distressed, but your mother is still distressed. β
"How can I not feel distressed, those are all white flowers." Ah Chang echoed: "But mother, I can't live a day now." β
"Don't worry, let my mother think about it." Ah Changniang was silent for a while, and then said, "Or, as we said before, find a way to drive Mei Niang away." If this soft doesn't work, it will come hard, I don't believe it, our mother and son can't clean up her blindness. β
"What does Niang meanβ" Ah Chang's voice was first confused, then relieved, followed by panic, and finally irrepressible excitement: "What does Niang mean is a hundred?" β
"My son is smart, and he doesn't need to say anything to his mother." The sound of footsteps, the sound of the door closing, followed by Ah Changniang's voice: "You come, let's discuss it with our mother." β
Bai Li didn't listen to Ah Changniang's words anymore, because she already knew the results of their discussion. According to the time calculation, Ah Changniang's wanton beating of Mei Niang started on this night. Anyway, Mei Niang is alone and has no mother's family. Coupled with blindness, even if he goes to court, it is difficult to prove that Ah Chang and his mother are there. Therefore, even if Mei Niang was killed by them, no one would stand up and say a word for her.
