Chapter 434: Camels and Straw
Sometimes you have to face things that you don't want to face, such as...... The fourth. Think about it alone, as the head of the family, do something that feels awkward for the benefit of the family...... It's normal, too, right? At least most of the time, that's what I think, so I want to find a high-sounding staircase inside my heart.
Unlike Ying and the second daughter, it doesn't matter how they look, but it's a little unnatural with each other. Look, it's like a huge rock suddenly falling from a babbling stream, although it doesn't block the waterway and doesn't affect the flow of the water too much, but suddenly there is an extra object, which makes people feel a little stiff; It doesn't matter if it's a stream or a boulder, it's not comfortable.
This analogy may not be appropriate, no matter how the fourth child is surnamed Wang now, no one wants to look at his family like this, but I can't help but think so, I don't know how to correct it. Everyone knew in their hearts that my brother-in-law was just a transitional title, she called me that, and then I happily agreed, like two duplicitous idiots.
I can't shirk the responsibility because of this, and I'm lagging behind in this regard. Ying and the second daughter quickly changed their attitude towards the fourth child in the first time, although it was not a good attitude, but at least they were responsible for their own position, and I still pretended to be leisurely, and came out and went in as if the fourth child was a little sister-in-law.
There is always a lot of time to spend in winter, and the only thing that is comforting recently is watching the second daughter and the fourth child discuss the "Shang Yi Law Shu" drafted by Lanling, which is like playing an awkward game. It is undeniable that the Wang family is the best at finding fault with others, and it is really gratifying to watch the laws that Lanling painstakingly made gradually turn into shit regulations full of loopholes.
Write them down one by one, add notes where there are loopholes, and then carefully revise a copy of the "Shang Yi Law Shu Addendum", and the Wang family will rely on it to exploit policy loopholes in the future. Whenever nine catties need to practice calligraphy, let the child hold the pen, and the second daughter or the fourth child dictate. I sat down with Ying and played chess; Although I had taught them how to play chess, I still thought it would be better to play some simple games when I was with smart people, so that I would not have to change the rules of chess on the fly in times of crisis, which would be too brain-consuming.
Ying is a slow-burning player, and the charm of the game is that the winner is decided before your ingenuity is revealed, and the winning side can take the lead in the next game. Everyone knows what it means to be the first to win a game with seven or eight hits, and it was precisely I who won a game by luck at the beginning of the game, and the unchanged result made Ying a little unhappy.
"Husband doesn't have to go on an errand today?"
"Oh. The Zhang brothers did a good job and wanted them to accumulate more work experience. Victory is in sight, there is no reason to give up, and after putting down the key one, he looked at Ying triumphantly.
"Then you are resting at home, the concubine has to go to the Zhuangzi to have a look, and the spring has to be placed." Ying stretched out her hand to mess up the chess pieces, and shamelessly pretended to be worried, "I haven't seen snow for so long in winter." The husband doesn't care. ”
…… When the words came out of Ying's mouth, he was right, and he had no choice but to push the chessboard aside, "For the husband, write a chapter for the Jade Emperor, Laipi!" ”
"Look," Ying Yi rushed to the fourth and second daughters without looking back. "I don't know how to clean it up in the morning, it's unkempt. Who are you two planning to have work experience with? Hurry up and wash and change, go to the workshop to see, and stay at home for confinement when the year is busy. "It's a finger to look at the nine-pound head, "It's not martial arts!" I don't know what to say about winter training? After saying that, he was very relieved, clapped his hands and wrapped an otter skin shawl, and gathered a group of minions in the courtyard to patrol.
The second daughter covered her mouth and smiled, and the fourth child looked at me angrily and complained: "I don't know how many games I want her to win, I'm not afraid that my sister will set fire to the house!" ”
"It's going to burn early." Reach out and pick up the rod from the wall and fiddle with it. In fact, fishing in winter is also a lot of fun, as long as the weather is good. The sun shines on the ground warmly, and I am still relaxed and happy when I sit on the edge of the pond. "You two pack up and go to the workshop to have a look, and go out to practice Sanjiu for nine catties." When he went out, he told the child: "Don't run towards the river beach, so that your mother knows that no one can save you." ”
If I don't continue to work well, if I am not there, the scene of the fourth child and the second daughter fighting is enough to make Hao Laiwu's action blockbuster embarrassed, and Jiujin always asks me if the fourth aunt is not leaving at home, this kind of topic is more difficult to answer. It's better to let him ask the fourth aunt directly.
"Brother-in-law." As soon as I found a good position on the edge of the pond, the voice of the fourth child came from behind me. "I see you forgot to take Maza. Brought it to you. ”
"How?" Looking left and right, the fourth person took the Mazha brace and opened it to the side, "It's okay, I'm going to sit on the hay." Is there something wrong? "It's not the style of the fourth child to send Maza, this girl has something to say, pat Maza," he said. ”
The fourth child bypassed Mazha and sat on the dry grass as I did, and grabbed a handful of sticks around his fingers without making a sound, looking a little unable to grasp the topic. The cold field, and the warm sun shined on the person coldly, the two of them suddenly became a little uncomfortable, and I didn't hold up the fishing rod for a long time.
The fourth child smiled at me, "The fishing rod is quite long. ”
"It's a bit long...... It's just a high-end product, "the brain is not oxygen-free, the conversation is not smooth, and the fishing line is thrown out without even hanging the bait, and the silly Lengleng stares at the empty water."
"Brother-in-law...... "The fourth child has a stiff tongue, and he pulls a hairpin on the grass on his head, "You are full of chess...... Better than my sister......"
"She's always let me. You know...... Your sister is a little older than me. "I feel a little tongue paralysis, my brain can't control the operation of my tongue, and my brain is atrophied.
"My mother came yesterday," the fourth child was a little uncomfortable, and threw the grass clippings that had been crumpled into slag. "Said that the second brother plans to take his sister-in-law to Longyou, it is empty, there is no one in the family to handle it, and the housekeeper is an outsider after all, and he can't say anything considerate."
"Oh, it's good to pick it up. The children are older, and the parents have a good time, "put down the fishing rod and lay down on the dry grass, and let out a long breath, the second brother is good, I haven't seen him for many years, I miss him." The Wang family's industry is run by the pillars of the Chen family, which is somewhat unfair. It is said that the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and the land of Longyou reclamation is now becoming more and more prosperous, and it is not difficult to find a few pleasing people of the opposite sex to scatter their hearts as the second brother Chen. I also believe that he found more than one or two, but after all...... Pretty good guy.
Knowing that the fourth child has nothing to say, talking about these things can always make people have a thought, which is more interesting than discussing the length of the fishing rod. "The second brother is a good person, I remember that when he was wrongfully imprisoned, he always felt that the Wang family was not good enough, so many things could not be solved."
The fourth shook his head, "Thanks to my brother-in-law, if it weren't for my brother-in-law's mediation, something like this would not have been mediated." It's certainly not what it is now. At that time, no one expected that my brother-in-law would make such a big deal for the sake of the Chen family. Normally, there is no hope for a merchant to vote in Dali Temple, not to mention that Zhaoxue can be sent back respectfully, and he also cured the sins of many adults in one go, but he showed his face. My mother still often talks about it, and when she talks about her son-in-law, she can't wait to make a clay statue. ”
"Really?" Looking at the fourth child's serious nodding appearance, I couldn't help but smile, especially when she said that she was a son-in-law, it seemed that there was no sister Ying on her head. The Chen family is just a girl. "There are some things you don't know, the Wang family doesn't have that much ability to cure anyone's crimes, but many things happened together to make others misunderstand. Oh yes, how are these days? Look at you and ...... I get along well with my family. Right. ”
"Well," the fourth child blushed when asked, and turned his face sideways in embarrassment, "Still messing with the second daughter." There are many things that can't tolerate each other, and I don't know when I have to fight...... Don't be angry about this, there's a reason why she doesn't look down on me, and my sister sometimes thinks I'm not as good as the second daughter. ”
"Your sister?" This shouldn't be, since they have all become a family, even if they are a little bad, they shouldn't compare their sister with their second daughter, they are not the same kind of people, and it is a bit too much to always compare the shortcomings of the fourth daughter with the advantages of the second daughter. But I have to be a little bit measured. "Your sister is such a personality, she is good for you, but sometimes she does bad things with good intentions. You can listen to it, and if you are reluctant, you will turn a deaf ear, and you don't have to worry about your sister. ”
"Don't care, just don't do as you like," the fourth sighed softly, and carefully moved towards me. "Brother-in-law. You are a person who understands everything. Most of the time it's just a matter of pretending to be confused. Isn't it me...... I'm going to Wang's house this time, ......" Speaking of this, I didn't know how to continue, and coughed a few times weakly, "Am I too stubborn to make my family unhappy?" ”
It seems that it's not just me, the fourth child has already felt it. She said that the family just wanted to make the story round, which meant that she made me a little unhappy when she came to Wang's house. Looking up at the fourth, he took the fishing rod away from his side, unloaded and installed it one by one, and squeezed out the sentence after a while: "You are too careful, this is not painful or unhappy, it is ......"
"I'm the one who made you uncomfortable and made my family uncomfortable. Brother-in-law, I didn't think it through, and I came to fill in a lot of trouble for the Wang family. The old four added softly with a face, "Ugly and ugly and not well-educated, and fighting with the second daughter makes the family restless." ”
"That's not what you said," he said with a smile on his face, "You and the second daughter were like this before, no one cared, no one cared." Besides, if it's ugly or not, you don't count, why keep letting these things interfere with your emotions? ”
The fourth child has changed a lot, and it took a little time to make a smart and lively good girl a little abnormal when he entered the Wang family, and the fourth child used to talk about these very calmly, but now he has become a little inferior, and people feel uncomfortable. He Ying, has nothing to do with the second daughter, Ying still says sister in the same tone as before, and the content of the second daughter and the fourth child's scolding has not changed much, but the fourth child is in a different situation, and his thoughts are naturally different. Add me to this important factor...... The point is that I don't have the right attitude towards these things.
"Actually, it has nothing to do with you," I thought about it before thinking about it, I didn't know how to talk about it, and I said that the family should be honest with each other when they are together, just like I treat the fourth child like I did to Ying and the second daughter, but I can't make up my mind. There are obstacles, manners and appearance are a link, but it is definitely not an important link, I like the fourth child because of familiarity. It can be said that she has grown up in the past ten years, from a brutal and capable little girl to a pivotal figure in the family industry, whether it is the Wang family or the Chen family.
That's why I can't get my attitude right, and it's hard to adapt when things go beyond my imagination. I also hope that the fourth child will be happy, and I once hoped that the fourth child would find a man who is a hundred times stronger than me to marry, but because of the four words of importance, I have a feeling of being coerced by interests and compromised, uncomfortable, and not calm.
The fourth child must also feel this way, whether passive or active, I think this is one of the reasons why the fourth child has the idea of marrying me. blinded his eyes, and took this brother-in-law with mediocre appearance and qualifications as his home, and lost the entire forest.
It's time to correct your mentality, if it goes on like this, it won't be a good thing for me, the fourth child, or even the entire Wang family. "Look, you're overly sensitive to a lot of things," mustered up the courage to take the fourth hand, fleshy. The palms are sweaty, anyway, it will not be easy for both of them. didn't look at her, his eyes looked at the dead tree on the other side and pretended to be calm, "It has nothing to do with your sister and second daughter, it's me who caused your current mentality." I talk about the overall situation all day long, but in fact, the person who doesn't care about the overall situation the most is ......."
The fourth child was not used to this kind of contact, and before I could finish speaking, he carefully withdrew his hand, which made me a little embarrassed. With his empty hand hanging, he shook it a few times stupidly, forgetting all the words he wanted to say.
The fourth smiled apologetically at me, looked left and right with low eyebrows, and carefully rubbed his hand on the hem of his skirt after making sure it was safe. The red face shoved his hand back again, and said nothing.
"Look, your hands are smaller than the second girl," he said and wanted to slap himself. It's not just that adults should have words, children can go up trees, and they actually behave like mentally handicapped young pioneers who have just developed. The wind was blowing, it was a little cold, and it only took a while for the sky to change, so I had no choice but to pat the fourth child on the shoulder, "It seems that your sister wrote a chapter for the Jade Emperor on my behalf, let's go home." ”
And then...... It's ridiculous. I don't know whether to put down the fourth little fat hand, she also let me pull indifferent, including cleaning up the fishing gear I did with one hand, until I walked the slope was put aside by a line of trees, the fourth relieved hand back, the two of them looked at each other in unison, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's not easy," the fourth laughed before I could speak. While wiping the sweat from the palm of his hand, he carefully touched my arm. "Brother-in-law, your tendons are stiff. Move back and forth, beware of the tendons. ”
"It's not easy," he shook his head self-deprecatingly, patting the trunk embarrassedly, "It's okay, after this hurdle, you can be more natural in the future." Let's figure out a way together, and we should be like a family in the future. You know, I just had the feeling of doing something bad outside, which was quite exciting......"
The fourth child covered his face by what I said, walked a little staggered, and did not fade the blush on his face until the door of the house, and couldn't wait to jump into the threshold, and began to smile at me stupidly. Walking on the porch, he suddenly approached me, shoved his hand over and stayed in my hand for a few seconds, and before I could react, he retracted, panting and running away with a red face.
I'm still a girl, and I've never seen the world. Proudly raise your arms, Devil's Hand, you have to be insured. shouted at the back of the fourth child: "I'm still fishing!" ”
"Fishing is proud!" There was a bright voice behind him, and he ...... I know she's well equipped, and if I don't 1v1 with her, I discovered the big secret, and the Lich King is a married woman!
"What's wrong with the fourth?"
Pointing to the sky, "I was going to ask her to talk to God, but I didn't expect you to go first, look, it's ready to snow." ”
"Don't interrupt," Ying snatched my fishing rod with her hand, "what is she running?" Preparing for tomorrow's fishing? ”
"Are you going? If you don't go, you will talk less about it. "I didn't have the anger to snatch the fishing rod back," I followed her back like a ghost all day long, I didn't see a hand like that, what else can I do with her? ”
"I didn't see it," Ying stiffened her mouth and pushed me hard, "It's not a shame to pull the hand, sneaking on a person, why don't you carry the concubine when you pull the second daughter." Find the fourth child to ask! ”
grabbed Ying and slipped into the back house, "Okay, I've never seen you as a sister." Since you let your sister in the door and guard against it like a thief, aren't you afraid of driving the fourth child crazy? Who has this number, speak with a conscience, one day my brother-in-law and brother-in-law called me not a taste in my heart, do I treat her as a sister-in-law or something else? ”
"I didn't say no," Ying pouted and squinted at me, "You are the master of the house, you can pull whoever you want, the concubine has no courage to intervene, it seems to be a jealous woman." ”
"Jealous woman, can a jealous woman compare with you? Believe it or not, I committed suicide by throwing myself into a lake? "Reach out and pat Ying's head, my mother-in-law knows it herself, so I don't have to say it to make jokes." It's all over the body. ”
Ying's expression was a little stiff, her lips trembled and she was about to cry, she was stopped by my slap, and suddenly returned to her true colors, pulled my arm and ravaged it, climbed on her shoulder and bit it in relief, and giggled like a neuropathy on my back.
"Finished?" Rubbing his arm and pulling the female madwoman aside, "Think about others, don't be like that." There is no way for the fourth child to pass through the door, not that your man is so that he won't even let go of his sister-in-law; I can't say no at all, and you know how embarrassing it is. "Reach out and pull Ying over. Gently hugged and sighed, "We are all adults, you don't catch me and pinch and twist and bite; I'm sorry for you, as long as you don't kill people, you can do whatever you want, but who will the fourth child go to? Don't you see that the fourth child has been having a hard time lately? ”
Ying leaned on me silently, closed her eyes and thought about things. You can't ask Ying to be selfless to the point of fraternity, unrealistic, unfair; But I'm the head of the family. I can't let a good girl enter the royal family to experience the life of hell, and it's not fair to call myself a man's brother-in-law duplicitously; Of course, my own thoughts can be ignored, even if it is superficially harmonious, it is very satisfying......
"What does the husband think?" Ying's tone was light, as if she wasn't talking about her own affairs, "I talked about the concubine for a long time, and I talked about the fourth child." I guess it's about to mention the second daughter, right? The concubine body wants to ask her husband what she means, is it because there are more people in the family that make you upset? ”
"No, the fourth child has been in our house since he was a child, and I don't bother anyone." After speaking, he raised Ying's chin with a generous look, only to feel that Yingdi's eyes were becoming more and more dazzling. Suddenly, an inexplicable evil fire rushed up, rudely pushed Ying away, smashed a punch on the kang curtain, and roared: "Okay." I'm just upset! It's not you, it's not the second daughter, it's not the fourth, it's the whole thing that is upset! Saying this, he stood up suddenly, almost pointing at Ying's nose, "You! Watch out! You say you're not! For so many years, he has been fighting with outsiders, his family, and his second daughter. Fight with the old four, no one will let go! There are also two daughters, who are not very thoughtful, full of intrigue and ruthless! Others kill people with knives, you kill with your heart and eyes, and the second daughter kills with consciousness! He said very relievedly, and his voice became louder, "And that damn Lanling." Trouble me with some bullshit national affairs all day long. A woman's family has a fart relationship with national events, as if she has become the most capable person in Datang! Know what I've been most worried about over the years? It's not that nine catties grow up and have no interest. It's not that the girl will marry a good family in the future, let alone the three or four brothers who fell off the flower bed and fell half to death, or that one day you and the second daughter will fight for 2,000 rounds and then die together!
Now it's okay, you don't have to die together, there is one more Chen Laosi, she has not been in battle for as long as the two of you, and she has survived like a fool between the three madmen, go and see what the girl for the fourth child has become! She thought it was all her own fault, she was guilty, and she was scolded by you for a day, but she felt that she could still have two battles with the second daughter, who knew that it was definitely not the opponent of the second daughter...... "Yelling is not my style, today I was evil, and I said it so loudly, and I was sweating profusely after shouting in one breath, and I felt tired as soon as I passed, "Oh my God, what did I say!" ”
Ying opened her mouth to stuff a duck pear, looked at me in surprise, and continued this expression until I finished my hair, and when I sat down tiredly, the two of them looked at each other with such big eyes and small eyes, and both of them looked at me sullenly.
"I'm sorry......" I've never used such vicious words in a family conflict, and I shudder a little when I think about it...... I don't know why I quarreled with Ying and got involved with the second daughter and Lan Ling, especially Lan Ling, she is innocent, I have never had this habit, and I still call the same as splashing skin.
Ying came to her senses, shook her head, and gently put her on my shoulder and pinched it, "Are you feeling better?" ”
It's much better, although I'm a little tired, but I'm much more comfortable, and it's better than fishing.
"Which concubine dares to ask, it's four women now, not three, right?" Ying's movements were still gentle, and she tapped a few times on my shoulder blades from time to time, which was very pleasant.
"Okay, count four." The few bloody people I just scolded were the people I cared about the most, and I never thought I would do that. sent out a no open fire, as if venting some strange things in the body, and didn't even mind Ying's questioning tone at all.
"That husband is also responsible, although the concubine is not enough to die with the second daughter, but he always has the idea of fighting to the death with a certain princess. Of course, after the princess dies in battle, you can take her orphan back to the royal family to raise her, and the concubine knows that you want him to be surnamed Wang, don't you? Ying rubbed her face and put her face on my neck, "You are too tired, you are too tired to live a real or false life, and you are afraid that your second daughter will be bullied, and you don't want your concubine to be wronged, and you are hiding a damn Lanling inside and out, can you not be tired?" No one complains about the fourth, my poor sister is just the last straw on the camel's back, and you told this story to the concubine. It's not that we're a group of witches, it's that you don't want to add any more burdens, right? ”
Right? Ying's words stopped me, yes, the poor camel has three monsters on it, and it looks harmonious. How stupid the camel is, he feels good about himself, and he has a sense of accomplishment, how amazing, but ...... But the fourth straw was really over-standard, and after climbing down, he began to shout very shamelessly......
"You don't realize this, and this is exactly the most welcoming thing about your husband. It is not uncommon for ten or eight to marry wives and take concubines. With your identity, one wife and three teng are supported by the imperial court, which means that the fourth child is already a person with a fate, so the concubine does not dare to kill the second daughter, nor can she kill the fourth child, and even if you accept another room, you will live well. The concubine was worried before, looking at the people around her, the higher her status, the more women in front of her, but today she is really relieved. Unlike those beasts, you care about everyone around you, the concubine, the second daughter, the damn Lanling, and now you are also out of your temper to the point of incoherence because you care about the fourth child, where is there still a group of wives and concubines who have the energy. ”
"You question my abilities?" Turning her head to look at Ying, she was trying to hide her face behind me, and I pulled it out, "According to what you say, am I at a loss?" My husband never allows the public to take advantage of me, which is inconsistent with my principles of being a man, since it is a legal quota, how can it be stuffed to be worthy of himself, and he is already considered law-abiding if he does not eat empty salary. ”
Ying raised her head and smiled, very proud, her little nose wrinkled, and her small eyes narrowed into crescents, "The husband is the most partial to the concubine body in his heart, although he has a bowl of water all day long, but he only deliberately hides it when he is alone with the concubine." As he spoke, he covered his chest and said with a sad face: "You just got angry...... It almost scared people to death. ”
"You're trying to say it's ridiculous!" I knew that the lethality was not enough, and because of the lack of experience in anger, the flaws were exposed, so Ying seized the opportunity to analyze me well, and the appearance of enjoying it made me feel very defeated.
But Ying also conveyed a message, everything about the fourth child is that I am too nitpicky, the problem is not as serious as I thought, that is, everything is on me, a lazy camel with a weight-bearing capacity that needs to be improved.
