Chapter 37: The Wicked Sue First
As soon as Rong put down the plate, a pair of chopsticks flew across the river and came to the plate of beef.
Xu Weiqiu first gave Xu Lian a few pieces, and then Erniang.
One, two, three......
Seeing this, Rong glared at her fiercely, and finally couldn't help but say: "Okay, Wei Qiu, there are only a few pieces of this beef, you have sandwiched it, what do others eat?" ”
Xu Weiqiu snorted: "Isn't this still there?" She said unashamedly, and put two pieces into her bowl as she spoke.
Xu Xiaoke looked at her with disgust: "A few pieces of meat are still sandwiched around, and it's not shabby, and your face is running snot, how can people eat a pair of chopsticks?" ”
Xu Weiqiu declared: "I haven't eaten these chopsticks. ”
Xu Xiaoke turned to cry to Xu Lian: "Dad, you see how domineering she is now, and I don't want to sleep in the same room with her, she doesn't sleep honestly, grinds her teeth all the time, and her hands and feet are not clean, the rouge gouache that my brother bought for me some time ago, I obviously haven't used it much, I opened it yesterday and saw that a lot of it was dug up." ”
What does it mean for the wicked to sue first, this is ......
Xu Weiqiu stood up suddenly: "Xu Xiaoke, what did you say?" You'd better make it clear who is taking whom. ”
"Dad, look, she still murders me." Xu Xiaoke pretended to be weak, and actually hid his face and sobbed.
"Eat when you eat, there are no rules." Xu Lian picked up the fan of the head of the family, said a few words to the two of them, turned his head and saw Xu Weiqiu, he couldn't help but think of the embarrassment last night, his face was a little uncomfortable, and then he coughed lightly: "Xiaoke, bear with it again, your sister will get married in a while." ”
Xu Weiqiu was about to make a stand, but Erniang on the side gently rubbed her with her elbow, Xu Weiqiu didn't speak again, although she didn't refute, but she had already made other calculations in her heart.
The quarrel finally stopped, Xu Xiaoke glanced at Xu Weiqiu with slanted eyes, and a triumphant smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Xu Weiqiu didn't bother to pay attention to her, and buried his head in eating.
Hongyan, who was sitting next to her, looked at this and that, and didn't speak, not knowing what she was thinking in her heart.
The Xu family's meal is so good that they are pregnant with ghosts.
At night, Xu Xiaoke repeated the old trick, either crowding her so much that she had no place to sleep, or pulling the bedding away.
Xu Weiqiu was uncomfortable, he slept groggily and was woken up by freezing several times in the middle of the night, and when he arrived at Yin, he actually started to get hot.
The quilt on his body was taken away again, and Xu Weiqiu felt cold all over the week: "Xu Xiaoke, I'm very cold, and the quilt is a little even." She pulled the corner of the quilt, the quilt didn't move at all, this Xu Xiaoke didn't know whether to pretend to be asleep or really sleep to death, put the quilt on her body, she didn't move no matter how she pushed it.
Xu Weiqiu didn't have the energy to talk to her, so he forced himself to go to Zhang's house.
She woke up Zhang's sleeping place,
"Erniang, I'm so cold......"
Zhang lit the lamp, and was also startled when he saw her trembling all over her body but sweating: "Ouch, my God, hurry, come into the quilt to warm up." ”
She obediently lay in, and the Zhang family hurriedly fetched hot water for her to wipe her body, tossing for a while, until dawn, Xu Weiqiu fell asleep groggily.
I don't know how long I slept, in a daze, she knew that Erniang came in to feed herself water, and reached out to touch her forehead, she said in a whisper: "Erniang, it seems that I can't go out of the stall today." ”
Zhang looked at her with heartache in his eyes, and responded: "Let's not go out of the stall, rest well, the body is more important than anything else." ”
"Uh-huh......." She replied lightly, and after a while, another sentence came out: "Erniang, it's good to have you here!" ”
This sentence has you really melted Zhang's heart, and her eyes are hot at the moment: "Silly child, there are you in this world, and Erniang is the one who should be happy." ”
While speaking, Zhang couldn't help but reach out and brush her wet sideburns: "Erniang doesn't look forward to anything, just hope that you can make a good in-law; Your aunt told you about the family business, Erniang inquired, I heard that although Li Damao is a little older, but his temper is not bad, and he is very diligent, I hope he is a good person, you can marry someone to love, someone to hurt, don't live like Erniang is aggrieved. ”
Xu Weiqiu slept in a daze, only to hear her say that Xu was a good mother-in-law, and replied very stubbornly: "I don't marry ......"
Erniang didn't take it seriously: "Silly boy, you are almost fifteen, men should marry women, that is a thing that has been the case since ancient times......." ”
She chattered for a long time, but the person who was huddled under the cover had already fallen asleep and did not give her any response.
I slept soundly, and when I woke up, I found that it was already three poles old. Since he came to this Cheng Dynasty, he has never slept lazy, Xu Weiqiu found that he was much better spirited, so he got up and tidied up the futon and went out of the house.
Walking into the hall, I saw a strange woman sitting on a wooden chair whispering to her Rong family, Erniang, Xu Xiaoke, and even sister-in-law Hongyan were also there.
As soon as she walked in, all the ladies in the hall turned their heads to look at her.
The strange woman looked her up and down with a pair of goldfish eyes, the eyes were quite sharp and extremely rude, Xu Weiqiu thought that she was also a cheeky person, and she couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable under her blatant scrutiny.
This woman was about forty or fifty years old, well-dressed, with flowers on her head, and her dress was very different from that of the peasant women in the nearby towns and villages.
"This is the big girl?" The woman asked.
Rong on the side nodded.
The woman unceremoniously looked at Xu Weiqiu's head: "The figure is good, but what's the matter with this face?" Also, the skin is too dark, women, you must have white spots on your skin to be marked, and you have heard of the truth that one white covers three ugliness. To be honest, it's really hard for me to find a good in-law with this appearance. ”
Hearing this, Xu Weiqiu had already guessed what this woman was doing, and her face was a little ugly for a while.
After the matchmaker finished commenting, she stood up and was about to leave.
Rong hurriedly got up to send him off: "Good aunt, don't sit down for a while?" It's also good to stay and have a meal before leaving. ”
"Forget it, I have to eat everywhere, I still have several more to run today."
The two went out one after the other, Xu Weiqiu saw Erniang's sad face, and couldn't help but walk up to her and asked, "Erniang, what's wrong?" ”
Before Zhang could speak, Xu Xiaoke, who was not far away, couldn't help but take the lead in opening his mouth: "Don't you recognize people?" That's the most famous mother-in-law matchmaker in the neighborhood, people came to refuse to marry, she told you about the family affair in Jiutou Village, and now the man is not satisfied with you. ”
After that, he mocked again: "What do you say you don't want to marry, you just want to marry, and people may not be willing to marry, I heard that you are still the first old bachelor in the village, so you don't look down on you." ”
