Chapter Twenty-Nine: Dong's
At noon, most of the villagers in Peach Blossom Village came, and the Lin family's banquet was rare even during the New Year's Festival, and everyone ate happily.
Even the workers next to the house were invited by Yao's mother to eat together, and for a while, the small courtyard of the Lin family was happy.
As one of the protagonists, Xiao Moyao naturally can't be absent, most of the men in Peach Blossom Village are rough, so they pulled Xiao Moyao to congratulate him while pouring him wine, and Xiao Moyao also did not refuse, and bowls of liquor were down.
At this time, Lin Yao saw that he had already drunk three jars of liquor, but seeing that his face did not seem to change, he let him drink it with confidence.
She sat quietly next to Yao's mother and ate her meal, listening to the congratulations of the surrounding villagers, Lin Yao smiled and thanked them one by one.
The peach blossom villagers are simple, and the people in the village will warmly congratulate anyone when they see a happy event, and Lin Yao also enjoys a happy atmosphere in it.
"Yo, Yao Chu, your family is very lively, you have forgotten about me, an old woman, you have no conscience." Suddenly, an unfashionable voice sounded at the gate of the courtyard.
Everyone was silent in an instant, and they all looked at the old lady Dong who spoke at the door, and she was followed by an old man Lin on crutches, and behind her stood Lin Xingfang and her daughter Lin Yue.
They are none other than the original owner's grandparents and vicious aunts.
Seeing that it was them, everyone was a little embarrassed, it stands to reason that on this happy day, everyone naturally wants to help with such bad words, but this Qing official is difficult to cut off family affairs, this old lady Dong and the Lin family's big house, in the final analysis, are still a family, and they outsiders are really not easy to speak.
Although this happy event is naturally to invite the elders in the family to come and have fun, it is just that what Mrs. Dong and Old Man Lin did before was too disgraceful and unpleasant.
If they succeed, they will definitely be shameless.
Seeing that it was them, Lin Yao suddenly sneered in her heart, heh, this grandmother of hers is a rare and superb grandmother in the world.
The original owner's father has been forced to work by the Dong family since he was a child because he was the eldest son, and has been working for the Lin family for most of his life, and all the money from working and farming every day has to be handed over to Mrs. Dong, and he has never complained, until Yao's mother gave birth to Lin Yao, Dong scolded Lin Yao for losing money, and planned to strangle her, so frightened that Yao's mother ran out of the house with Lin Yao overnight and didn't dare to go back, helpless, Lin's father had to propose to divide the family, but he didn't expect this Dong to hear it and scolded him for being a white-eyed wolf, stunned that not an acre of land and a room were not allocated to Lin's father, also said that they would pay her fifty yuan in alimony every year for the Lin family's big house.
Although this father Lin is a filial son, he is also a good husband, so he gritted his teeth and agreed to Dong's regulations.
When Father Lin was still there, he would always save money every year and save 50 yuan from eating bran and vegetables to give to the Dong family.
Until Father Lin had an accident, Dong also came to take a look, but he came empty-handed, and as soon as he entered the house, he pointed at Yao's mother and scolded her for being useless, forcing her eldest son to go up the mountain to hunt, and then scolded and left.
And Father Lin actually went up the mountain in order to make up enough for her fifty yuan, and accidentally had an accident.
Since then, the Dong family has never been to the Lin family's big house, and she also knows that the remaining orphans and widows can't scrape together a few dollars at all, and if they are pressed, it will damage her reputation.
And the Dong family is also cold, and she is really powerless, so the two have no intersection this year.
Yao's mother actually thought of Dong's when she made the mat, but she knew her mother-in-law's virtue too well, in order to let her daughter have a festive marriage banquet, she gritted her teeth and didn't invite her, but she didn't expect her to come.
And as soon as he came, he said such unpleasant things.
Although Yao's mother was very uncomfortable, but this ancient precept is that the world is big, and her parents are the biggest, no matter how Dong treated her at the beginning, she could only bear it, and she was used to being oppressed by Dong's family over the years, and when she saw her, Yao's mother was still a little scared, and she stood up instinctively, squirming her lips and trembling slightly, "Mother, father, you are here, quickly, sit down." ”
After speaking, Yao's mother found four chairs from the side and placed them next to her.
"Humph!" Dong snorted heavily from his nostrils without appreciation, and did not reply, but turned around and helped the old man Lin on the side to sit down, and Lin Xingfang saw that she also hurriedly led Lin Yue over and sat down.
After sitting down, Mrs. Dong squinted her bean eyes, looked at the banquet in front of her, and said in a rough voice, "Heh! This mat is really magnificent, it seems that this girl is married well!"
The words were good, but there was no trace of joy on her face, and she was still angry that the Lin family's big house was developed and she didn't know how to honor her.
A few days ago, she heard that the Lin family's big house was developed, and she thought that she had just made a small fortune, and when she was free, she would come to let them honor her, but she didn't expect that this family banquet would be held, but she dared not tell her.
Lin Xingfang saw it, rolled her eyes, and stepped forward and said earnestly, "Mother, my sister-in-law's family has been really good these days, you see, even the big house has been built, and a horse has been bought, this is not fifty or sixty taels can not be down, it seems that this big house will not give you less alimony this year." ”
This Lin family's big house has always been the most tired to work in the Lin family, the most angry, and the least obtained, these days I don't know what evil the dead girl has in, she can earn so much money, these days are getting more and more prosperous, she is so hateful in her heart, why can the person she has always looked down on live better than her.
Now that this old lady Dong is here, I can't see if I can't peel off a layer of skin from them.
Thinking about it, her heart was a little more balanced, and she fanned the flames even harder.
Dong Shi became even more angry while listening, after her eldest son was gone, she had not paid attention to the big house, just afraid that they would borrow money from her, but she didn't expect their big house to be so prosperous now, and she didn't even tell her the happy event of the dead girl's marriage, this is not to take her seriously.
When the old man Lin on the side heard this, his face became more and more gloomy, and he looked at Yao's mother and said as a matter of course, "Your big house didn't give us alimony last year, and we also took care of you at that time, and we didn't care about you, since you are doing well this year, then we will give it all this year." ”
Hearing this, the Dong family hurriedly echoed the situation, "That's right, we don't want more from you, just give ten taels, your big house can even afford Malaysia now, and you can afford to pay for it." ”
The surrounding villagers couldn't help but gasp when they heard it, this Dong family really dared to ask for it with a shy face, this Lin family's big house has made cattle and horses for him for so many years, and these villagers are all looking at it, these ten taels are in Peach Blossom Village, but some people have never seen a huge amount of money in their lives, no matter how much this Yao girl earns, she can't give it for nothing.
And this is the big day of this Yao girl's marriage, they even barked regardless of the occasion, they really don't know how to be polite, everyone cast contemptuous eyes at them, and the eyes of Lin Yao and Yao's mother also became sympathetic.
Hearing this, Yao's mother turned pale and looked at Lin Yao a little helplessly.
Since ancient times, it is not wrong to support the elderly, but these ten taels are too much, and their family is not unaffordable, but Yao's mother is also a little dissatisfied in her heart, and her family's Yaoyao's money is not blown by the wind, it is all earned by her eldest girl who gets up early and is greedy for darkness.
Seeing this scene, Lin Yao sneered in his heart, a touch of disgust flashed in his eyes, and he stepped forward to the Dong family with a cold face, "Grandma, today is my wedding banquet, it's not appropriate for you to discuss these things in front of the public, otherwise, let's eat first, and after eating, let's go back to the house and say okay?" ”
Forget about other times, it's just that today is her wedding banquet, and she really doesn't want to talk to her about alimony in public.
If it weren't for the fact that there were some well-behaved villagers around her, Lin Yao really wouldn't mind scolding her for being a dog blood sprinkler, bullying and squeezing their Lin family's big house so openly, she would really be the timid and cowardly Lin Yao she used to be.
These words made Dong Shi couldn't help but glance at her, thinking that this dead girl had really changed a lot, and she dared to look at her so confidently to speak, feeling the disdainful gaze of the people around her, she was suddenly dissatisfied in her heart, and said loudly, "What do adults talk and children interject?" Go aside!"
"That's it, this Yaoyao is too ignorant, your grandmother finally came to see you, and you even disobeyed your grandmother." Lin Xingfang also echoed in due course.
"Yaoyao and I have already made a marriage, and we are no longer considered children, you should have come today to bless me and Yaoyao, not to ask for alimony." Seeing his beloved being bullied, Xiao Moyao couldn't stand it anymore, and hurriedly interrupted them in a cold voice.
Hearing this, everyone looked at Xiao Moyao.
I saw Xiao Moyao's sturdy and upright body standing so firmly, with a hint of disgust in his deep narrow eyes, and his face was gloomy and terrifying.
Obviously, on the surface, he looks just a mountain man, but the breathtaking spirit around him makes people dare not ignore him.
Lin Yue, who had not spoken for a long time on the side, looked at him, her face was a little red, she felt that her heart was beating a little fast at the moment, this man was really tall, and he didn't look like a bad breed.
Thinking about the handkerchief under her table twisted fiercely, she looked at Lin Yao, who was dressed beautifully and calmly, and felt a little unwilling, that Lin Yao had been chasing after her before, crying and shouting to take her to play, and she had always disliked her, how did she become so outstanding now, and found such a good man, thinking about a dark light flashing in her eyes.
Dong knew that her grandson-in-law had some skills, and she would be a good hunter, and today's banquet in the Lin family's scenery was a blessing to him, and she was also a little frightened by his stunning spirit, so she eased her face and said, "Of course, we are here to congratulate you and Yao Yatou, okay, let's eat first." ”
Xiao Moyao glanced at Lin Yao with a little worry, he knew that his Yaoyao was having a miserable life, but he didn't expect that there was such a family of excellent relatives, it was really not easy for her Yaoyao to grow up safely in such an environment.
Looking at Xiao Moyao's distressed eyes, Lin Yao smiled at him slightly, indicating that she was fine, Xiao Moyao returned to the table with confidence, but this joyful mood was a little lighter, and no one noticed that his lowered eyes were flowing with murderous aura.
As soon as he said the word "eat", Dong immediately moved his chopsticks to sandwich all the food on the table into Old Man Lin's bowl, "Old man, come, it's all meat, eat it quickly." Lin Xingfang, who was on the side, saw it and was not far behind, and was also busy putting the vegetables in Lin Yue's bowl.
Old Man Lin leaned back on the chair, holding chopsticks, and enjoyed Dong's service with a deserved face.
Lin Yue, who was on the side, saw Lin Xingfang's rude movements and the disgusting eyes of the people around her, her face was a little unsightly, so she had to cover her face with a handkerchief, her heart was full of disgust, but she stretched out her chopsticks to eat the food in the bowl.
The other villagers on the table looked at them with disgust on their faces after seeing it, this Lin family's big house is really pitiful, and it is not easy to get out, and there are so many vampires.
Lin Yao didn't care much, anyway, the big guys had eaten almost, no matter how much they ate, it couldn't affect her appetite, she drank honey lemonade in small sips while watching the wind and clouds of those people.
After the feast was over, the women of the village stayed behind to help clean up the scraps, and they were happy to help after such a good feast.
The Dong family came to the Lin family's house, and the Dong family sat on the kang, looked at Yao's mother with a proud face, and said, "Yao Chu, this meal is also over, and we should also discuss the matter of alimony." ”
Hearing this, Yao's mother stiffened a little and looked at Lin Yao.
A touch of disgust flashed in Lin Yao's eyes, and she looked at the Dong family with a cold face, anyway, there were no outsiders here, and she didn't want to hide it, "Grandma, we can give this alimony, but we can only give fifty yuan, not one more." ”
