Chapter 57: Aunt Guan
Although Guan's words are light, there is a toughness that cannot be ignored. What's more, Elder Hui spoke. , the younger generation has to listen to it. Li Xin looked at Guan Wen and saw that he was smiling and nodding to himself, but he had no choice but to go out with Guan.
I didn't go anywhere else, but to the back of the hall. Li Xin guessed correctly, there was indeed a stove room behind the hall.
Guan Shijing sat on the bench in front of the stove door, and did not greet Li Xin, but only looked at the stove in a daze.
Guan didn't speak, and Li Xin didn't want to find a topic randomly, so she stood quietly to the side, waiting for Guan to see how she reacted.
After about ten minutes, Guan said quietly, "I don't like you." Although he didn't name him, his eyes were still looking at the stove, but Li Xin also knew that Guan's "you" was referring to himself. She couldn't help but slander in her heart: I didn't ask you to like it, but she still smiled slightly, "I know, my aunt doesn't care much about me, so naturally she doesn't like me." Guan Shi was a little surprised, and turned his head slightly, "You are quite good at observing words and feelings." "My aunt is showing that I'm not wood, how can I not feel it."
Li Xin lowered her head, put the topic aside, and asked Guan, "Do you need me to do anything?" My aunt spoke. ”
Guan Shi looked at her complicatedly and shook his head, "There's nothing else to do, you can rest." "Arwen bought some meat, and before he came, he said that I would help my aunt clean up, where did my eldest cousin leave his things?" I'm going to clean up. 、,
Li Xin was about to go out as she spoke, but Guan called out to her, "That's not in a hurry, it's still early." Guan sighed, "You don't have to be courteous in front of me, although I don't like you, but I also think that Ah Wen can live a good life, you won't be embarrassed, but I can't get close to you."
Li Xin silently picked up a bench and sat down, and the depression caused by Guan's ignoring her before was also eliminated.
No matter how you say it, Guan is also Guan Wen's aunt, and she has been good to Guan Wen since he was a child, so it's good for her aunt not to embarrass her, she behaves better, and avoids making it difficult for Guan Wen to be caught in the middle. Isn't it true that superficial efforts must be kept?
Li Xin was also a little far away from Guan's family, and Guan took tongs to pull some dried firewood leaves on the ground, and while driving the leaves to a pile, he asked Li Xin, "How are everyone in the family?" "It's all good." Li Xin also replied smartly: "My father and mother are in good health, and my younger siblings are pregnant, so I am in a good mood." ”
Guan Shi smiled: "Then you should hurry up a little bit." 、,
This has no beginning and no end, but who can not understand it? This is knocking Li Xin's head and making her get pregnant quickly.
"The Guan family looks at a lot of men, but in fact, the men are thin and the four sons are still there, but none of them have asked my brother to hold his grandson. You are the eldest sister-in-law and the only daughter-in-law, so you have to take the lead. Li Xin was a little annoyed when she heard this, this child is not a child, and you shouldn't be an aunt when it comes to near and far, right? Guan Wen doesn't have any opinions!
Holding his breath in his heart, Li Xin couldn't make a move, so he had to sit sullenly.
Guan Shi glanced at her, looked away and said, "I knew that the girl hired by Ah Wen was you, so I didn't approve of it, but it was not my turn to say anything about this marriage, and I didn't want to ask for it." I saw you in a hurry when you got married that day, and I thought that your appearance was okay, but I didn't know anything else. No matter how good the matchmaker says, she can't believe it, saying that you are virtuous and gentle, it is difficult to guarantee that you are not scheming. However, I won't say any of this, I just hope that you will live a good life with Arwen in the future, this child has suffered for so many years, and I don't want him to be wronged. Seeing that Li Xin didn't speak, Guan's voice became slightly heavier: "I know you have been in that place, and it is difficult to say whether you will have children in the future, but you have to work hard." It's been a few months since you've been in the door, and you haven't made any moves. Take the time to see if Lang Zhong's body can be adjusted, or take advantage of the age is not too old to take care of it. You don't want to be without a queen, do you? Li Xin was depressed, and wanted to refute but was suppressed by himself. These words are obviously caring, but how can they be said from Guan's mouth with such a disgusting taste?
But before she could say anything, she saw Zhao Changhui carrying the meat, vegetables, and rice noodles brought by her and Guan Wen into the stove, interrupting Guan Shi and saying, "Mother, this is the eldest cousin and eldest cousin-in-law who brought you to honor you, we can have a good meal tonight." ”
Guan scolded with a smile: "It's like you haven't eaten a good meal in your life." ”
Zhao Changhui put down his things and said to Li Xin: "My cousin told my father that my cousin-in-law has made a good dish, and I will trouble my cousin-in-law tonight, and my cousin-in-law can't hide her secrets." ”
Li Xin nodded slightly, it was estimated that Zhao Chang would hear what Guan said outside the stove, and knew that Zhao Chang would be looking for her to go down the stairs, so she also climbed down the pole, "Don't dislike me, just have poor craftsmanship." As he spoke, he went to clean up the pork leg he had bought and cut off the pig's intestine.
Guan Shi frowned: "The pig goes into the water to cook?" "It's cleaned up, and it tastes good." , Li Xin explained lightly and went to work. Guan Shi paused before getting up to wash rice and knead dough, wanting to make a good meal for his family.
As for the pig's large intestine. Forget it, after all, it was Awen who brought it, and he can't say anything.
Getting ready, Li Xin wiped his hands clean, Guan Wen came over and looked at the purse for her, and whispered in her ear: "Give her the filial piety silver for your aunt, you give it to her." After speaking, Li Xin left, and smiled at her, "I'll go to have tea and chat with my uncle." ”
After a while, I saw Guan come over with a basin and cover it with gauze. Seeing Li Xin there in a daze, he said unhappily: "What are you doing in a daze?" If you feel sleepy, go and rest for a while. Li Xin hurriedly said, "Not sleepy", thinking of Guan Wen's actions, his heart warmed again.
This man is affectionate and is her beloved......
Guan Wen is not a person who can't read people's faces, so he naturally knows that Guan doesn't like Li Xin, and he does his best to help Li Xin and his aunt have a good relationship. If this filial piety silver comes out of Li Xin, although the Guan family will not change his attitude towards Li Xin immediately, at least it will change a little, right? After all, five hundred dollars is not a small amount.
Guan Wen attaches great importance to the relationship between him and his aunt, and he doesn't want to see it difficult to be sandwiched between his daughter-in-law and aunt. He knew that Li Xin had a gentle and gentle temperament, did not like to argue with others, and his aunt also had a good personality and was not a bad person. He thought that one day his aunt would like his daughter-in-law.
Li Xin pretended to dig out the purse, took out the money, stuffed it into her hand in Guan's surprised gaze, and said, "This time, Ah Wen and I went to Cui's Mansion to work for a short time, and we made a lot of money. Arwen said that my aunt has always been very good to him, he has been taken care of by you since he was a child, and it is the first time I have officially visited my aunt's house, so I have to express it. Some time ago, I asked my cousin to help with things, but Ah Wen couldn't help it. This is a little bit of our heart, auntie quickly put it away. Guan pushed back, "If you have money, you can collect it yourself, you will only get married, and there are many places to use money!" Get it back! ”
Li Xin was unmoved, "This is a little filial piety between me and Awen, if my aunt doesn't accept it, I will think you are too little." Take it quickly, I'll be close to Arwen. ”
Li Xin would not be so confused as to say how much she and Guan Wen had earned, and pushed her into Guan Shi's arms to prevent her from pushing her back, "Auntie, it's angry to push me again, although you don't like me, don't look down on me."
This is what Arwen ordered. Guan snorted, and finally sighed, "Then I'll take it." ”
Li Xin smiled at this time: "That's right." Help Guan tighten her belt, "Auntie go and put the money away, and leave the work between the stoves to me." ”
Guan Shi glanced at her complicatedly, walked to the hall to put the money, and just saw Guan Wen and his eldest son running out of the bedroom in the open space in front of the hall, pushing something. Guan hurriedly asked, "What are you two brothers doing?" ”
Zhao Chang will see Guan as if he has seen a savior, "Mother!" My cousin gave me money for the fortress, saying that it was the cost of my trip to my uncle's house that day! ”
Guan Shi hurriedly said: "Ah Wen, what are you doing!" Your daughter-in-law has already given me the silver for filial piety! "Xin'er said, one yard is one yard, it is filial to my aunt and uncle, this is the errand fee for Changhui, and he has been delayed for two days in vain, but it can't be delayed in vain."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but stuff the money into his pocket, "Don't take it out again, I'm going to be angry, you know your eldest cousin, it's scary for me to get angry, right?" Zhao Changhui turned to Guan in a daze, and Guan finally snorted, "Your cousin gave it to you, you can take it." ”
There seemed to be a sigh in his voice.
Guan's mind is very complicated. Li Xin said just now that it was Guan Wen's order to give filial piety to silver, but Guan Wen said that it was his daughter-in-law who said it. Guan Wen has always been bad at retracting lies, and it is impossible for him to lie without blushing and his heart beating. She, who is an aunt, still knows this nephew very well.
So, it should have been his daughter-in-law's idea to give filial piety money and run money to his son?
For a while, Guan couldn't react.
As Guan Wen's elder, she disagrees very much in her heart that Guan Wen married a kiln sister who left her nationality and went home. I always feel that my nephew is good in everything and deserves a better innocent girl. I also privately think that such a woman must not learn well, scratching her head and squeezing her eyebrows, and knowing that she is dressed up beautifully and good to go out to attract bees and butterflies.
Today, I see that this nephew and daughter-in-law are not demonic, and they still have a bit of the smell of a good woman, but her past is like a thorn in her heart.
In addition, she thought that this woman was losing money, and she didn't know if she would give birth to a baby or something for her nephew in the future, so she became more and more displeased with Li Xin in her heart.
But in a short period of time, she could also see that she said that she didn't like this nephew and daughter-in-law, and this nephew and daughter-in-law didn't come to her, nor did she say anything flattering, she did her duty, and she didn't say that it was her own idea to give money, and she pushed it to her own family. That alone is a rarity.
Many daughters-in-law take their husband's money and don't save it for their own children? But she also specially reminded her husband to give her some filial piety as an aunt.
Guan sighed, this nephew and daughter-in-law's temperament has to be seen slowly.
