Chapter 400: Aha (II)
Chapter 400: Aha (II)
After comforting Ah He for a while, Ah He stopped her tears, Ah Mei went to throw a veil for her to wipe her face, Ah He sniffed and said: "The older you are, the more unpopular you are, sister-in-law, what do you think of Dad, his children are separated from him, but his life is better?" ”
Li Xin and Xing'er glanced at each other, Guan Ming couldn't get along with them, but now they are torn apart and don't interact with each other, and they can't talk about the rights and wrongs of this father-in-law.
Li Xin smiled and said, "Your father has that temper, Ahe, don't be angry." ”
Xing'er said: "It's rare to come back once, don't lose your good mood." Not to mention anything else, your eldest brother and second brother are very happy to see you come back. ”
Ah He sighed and said, "Yes, no matter how my father is, I still have my eldest brother and second brother who are happy for me to come back." ”
Li Xin asked Ah Mei to scoop a bowl of white fungus red date soup for Ah He to drink, and asked her: "I see that you look good, and your body and bones will nourish the ground, okay?" ”
"In the past few months, I feel much better." Ah He smiled, and looked at Li Xin's eyes even more grateful: "Sister-in-law persuaded me that those are right, women's families, you can't wait for men to hurt, you must be kind to yourself first." This time, I drink brown sugar water every month, soak my feet in hot water, and try not to touch the cold water, so my complexion is much better. ”
"That's fine." Li Xin smiled: "After adjusting your body, it will be easier to have children." ”
"Now that the date of the monthly letter is much more accurate than before, there is nothing wrong with estimating the day by myself." Ah He nodded, his face slightly confused: "I think about it too." When will I be able to conceive a baby. In the end, I still have to have a son to be a little safe...... Daughters always have to get married, and they can't always point to their daughters when they are old. ”
Xing'er persuaded: "How old are you, why do you think so far ahead, decades later." ”
While speaking, Ah Mei came over with white fungus red date soup. Took the tray. There is more than one bowl of filling, a total of four bowls, and one person does not leave one bowl.
Ah He looked at Ah Mei up and down and said with a smile: "Ah Mei is more and more stable in her work, and she is also comprehensive. Of course I can't drink this soup alone. ”
Ah Mei's face was slightly red, and Ah He asked Li Xin again: "Sister-in-law, is Ah Mei's mother-in-law still satisfied with her?" ”
"Satisfied." Li Xin said with a smile: "We only went to Wei's house a few days ago, and Aunt Wei was full of praise for Ah Mei. Ah Mei is not bad looking, she is quiet and quiet, and she is liked by her future mother-in-law. The Wei brothers are also a good one."
"That'll be fine." Ah Ho paused for a moment before he said softly: "Ah Mei's family affairs have been settled, so ...... What about Ah Xiu? ”
Ah Ho only said that Ah Xiu's conditions were there. is old and lives in the town for a long time, so it is not easy to find her mother-in-law's house, so she asks more carefully, for fear of annoying Li Xin - after all, Ah Xiu's family affairs are handled by Li Xin, if she asks too reasonably, even if the sister-in-law is reasonable, I am afraid that it will not be comfortable.
Who knew that Xing'er snorted and laughed, winked at her sister-in-law, and bumped her elbow against her.
Li Xin glanced at Xing'er. looked at Ah He with a smile and said, "Ah Xiu's family affairs...... I'm waiting! ”
Ahe's arrival naturally made Guan Wen and Guan Wu have a good meal together, Li Xin cleaned up Axiu's room and gave Ahe's mother and daughter to sleep with, and after eating and washing, Amei went to Ahe's house and wanted to whisper to her sister.
Li Xin put on a long robe and carried a candlestick over to illuminate them, and poured two glasses of warm water for them to drink.
Ah He took his leg and said, "Sister-in-law." Let's sit down and talk. ”
"I don't have to. Your sisters whispered, and I listened to it. Ah Mei was embarrassed to say it. ”
"How can there be ......" Ah Mei said softly: "A lot of things were taught to me by my sister-in-law, how can there be anything that my sister-in-law can't know." ”
Li Xin shook his head and said with a smile: "You just say it, I won't listen to it from the side." But also pay attention to the hour and don't go to bed too late. Since Ah He is here, he will definitely stay for a few more days, Ah Mei, it's time to talk to your third sister. ”
Ah Mei nodded, but Ah He pulled Li Xin and said, "Sister-in-law, sit down, let's talk together." I'm serious, there are some things I want to mention to your sister-in-law, and ask you for ideas. ”
Li Xin thought about it for a while, but he didn't bother to go back to the house, so he simply sat down next to the edge of the bed.
The eldest girl and the second girl were already asleep on the inside of the bed, Ah He sat cross-legged on the side, and Ah Mei snuggled up to her next to her.
"I'm living a good life now." Ah He laughed and said: "Since Brother Qiang took me and the eldest girl and the second girl to move out of the house, I rented a shop by myself, selling noodles in the front, and we lived in the back, so I have only shown the weather in my own life." It was really difficult at first, but fortunately, with the help of his friends, he didn't go hungry. Gradually, business improved, and there were more repeat customers, and we gradually had more money. ”
Li Xin smiled and said: "You are also diligent and willing to endure hardships." ”
"Yes, those who are human beings and do things must not be lazy, nor can they endure hardship. As the saying goes, if you eat hard, you will become a master. Ah He also smiled and said: "Although we are not human beings, at least we are well fed and warmly dressed, and we are relieved to see that the babies do not have to be angry." ”
Ah Mei hugged Ah He's shoulder, Ah He patted her hand and said, "Your third sister is a little bit out of it, so I look forward to you and your fifth sister, you can marry well, and you don't have to be angry as a daughter-in-law." ”
Ah Mei whispered; "The third sister doesn't have to be angry with your father-in-law and mother-in-law in the future."
"I can't say for sure." Ah He sighed: "After all, it is also your brother-in-law's father and mother, you can't die old and don't get along, every New Year's holiday, your brother-in-law will still sneak back with a big bag - he is also afraid of gossip, saying that he is rich and rich, but he is not filial to the two elders or something." ”
Li Xin bent her lips: "Third sister, don't say anything else, you must hold the big head in your hands for money." With money at hand, you have the confidence to speak. No matter how your parents-in-law make a fuss, if you have money, you have the right to speak. ”
Ah He nodded: "Yes, I have always listened to your sister-in-law, and I have all the money myself." ”
"Will my brother-in-law be upset?" Ah Mei asked softly.
Ah He shook his head: "Your brother-in-law made money before it was for his father and mother, and he didn't take care of the money himself." When the money was handed over to me, and I took care of everything for him, he felt satisfied, but saved him a lot of things. ”
Li Xin smiled and said, "It's good if my brother-in-law doesn't care, but you usually don't be too harsh on him." ”
Ah He paused slightly, and Li Xin said: "You guys are living a good life now, he is in the noodle restaurant business again, and he welcomes customers, there must be more and more people making friends with him from all directions, and there must be more and more people making friends with him." He wants to make friends, he can't do it without a little money around him, men have a good face outside, and whoever pays for a treat when they eat together is the uncle. You can't just block him and not let him pay for dinner and drink, he will feel that you have made him lose face. ”
"I'm in control of this." Ah He nodded and said, "Usually we do business in the morning, and we close the shop at the next day. Sometimes when he goes out for a walk, I will give him a little money and ask him to buy some snacks for the eldest girl and the second girl. ”
"That's fine." Li Xin smiled: "Your method is good, reminding him that there are still two daughters in the family who need him to coax." ”
Ah He smiled, but the smile faded again: "There is another thing, but I still can't put my mind down." ”
Thinking that Ah He insisted on pulling her down and saying that he wanted to talk about something, this should be the main topic.
Li Xin said with a straight face: "What's the matter?" ”
Ah He exhaled lightly and said, "It's still my little dowry." ”
Li Xin raised her eyebrows and motioned to Ah He to continue, and Ah He confided: "That little dowry, Brother Qiang didn't move away when he came out with me to do business on his own, and he was very busy at that time, and he didn't expect these many things." When the business was on the right track, I thought of this stubble, so I told Brother Qiang to bring back the dowry box. ”
Ah He said: "That little dowry does not seem to be very valuable, but when I got married, it was already very rich. That's what my eldest brother spent a lot of money to buy for me at that time, and the degree of food and clothing has been taken into account everywhere, and new clothes and new bedding have been worn one after another over the years, not to mention some fabrics and the like. Don't mention anything else, just the box, that is also the second brother and the fourth brother who personally called me when they dug up the field to cook the field, whether it is strong or not, it is also the second brother and the fourth brother's intentions. ”
Li Xin paused for a moment and asked, "Your parents-in-law withheld your dowry, and you are not allowed to take it out?" ”
Ah He sighed, "The dowry has already been tossed by my concubine, and the good fabric has also been taken away by her, and there is not much left besides." I used to be careful not to let it bump into it, but the last time I looked back, there were a lot of bars on the top of the box. My sister-in-law was very proud to say that her son was smart, and wanted to learn a trade at such a young age, so he took a knife and gestured on the box to carve things. ”
Ah He looked at Li Xin: "You said how old that little man is, play with a knife!" I don't mention it, children are naughty and look at everything novel, playing with knives and fire, who doesn't have children like this? But her mother, when she saw her son playing with a knife, she didn't stop it, and she looked proud...... Sister-in-law, what kind of psychology do you say she has? ”
Li Xin was silent, and Ah He said again: "Later, Brother Qiang and I moved the box away, and when I went back to my house to look at my box, I still felt angry. ”
Ah Mei gently held Ah He's chest and said, "Third sister, don't be angry. ”
Li Xin looked at Ah He: "You said you can't put your mind down, is it for the little grandson of the Luo family to play with the knife, or for your dowry?" ”
Ah He sighed: "Half and half." ”
Li Xin smiled and said: "You are really kind-hearted, your parents and grandparents didn't say anything, and you don't have to say much." ”
Ahone paused: "...... Looking at that child, I'm afraid that he can't learn well, his parents-in-law are in pain, and my sister-in-law basically doesn't care about her son. ”
Li Xin smiled faintly. (To be continued) RQ
