Wang Shuzhen woke up and went to her daughter's room next door, but found that the bedding was neatly folded, and the person was long gone.

This kid must have gone to the fire room.

She had just raised her feet to look for her daughter, but was stopped by the young aunt who was hurrying over.

"Big lady! The old lady please. ”

The main house.

Mrs. Wang put a list in front of her daughter: "This is your dowry list, and it will also be Jiaojiao'er's dowry in the future, I didn't give it to you before, because I was afraid that you would be fully subsidized to the bottomless pit of the Xue family." ”

"Mother! I'm sorry my daughter gave you a chill. ”

Thinking of her previous behavior, Wang Shuzhen's eyes turned red again.

"Okay, okay, don't cry your nose at every turn, how old are you."

Mrs. Wang was disgusted in her mouth, but she picked up a handkerchief in her hand and gently wiped her daughter's tears.

"These things are stored in the warehouse in your yard, you have to keep them alive, don't give them to the Xue family when your brain is hot."

This dowry list was prepared fourteen years ago, but because the surname Xue didn't want to get involved, the dead girl also fell out with her father.

Later, they sent people to send money and goods to Xuejia Village many times, but they were all spent by this dead girl to the Xue family.

"Don't worry, my daughter won't be stupid."

Wang Shuzhen took a deep breath and suppressed the sourness in her eyes and reassured.

"Hmmm! Jiaojiaoer is a good one, but she is always going to get married, and you can't follow her for the rest of your life, and your father and I can't protect you until you get old.

In the end, you still have to rely on your eldest brother, so you have to get along with your sister-in-law, so that your eldest brother is not caught in the middle. ”

Although her daughter-in-law is gentle, she deliberately avoided topics about her daughter since she beat her daughter and ran away with the surname Xue.

It is not difficult to see that she has an opinion about her daughter.

There is an aunt like her who eloped with someone in the family, which has an impact on the reputation of the nieces, and the sister-in-law should hate her to death.

Wang Shuzhen bit her lip, smiled bitterly and put her head on the old lady's shoulder.

"Don't worry! I know it all. ”

"Alas!"

Old Madam Wang wrapped her arms around her daughter's thin shoulders: "Tomorrow, your eldest brother's family, as well as your second uncle's family, will come back, and then you should admit your mistakes and don't just cry." ”

"Hmmm! I'll admit my mistake. ”

The mother and daughter were leaning together and chattering, but the women's shouts were heard outside the house.

"Sister-in-law...... Sister-in-law, I heard that Shuzhen is back? ”

Wang Shuzhen heard this familiar voice and hurriedly raised her head from her mother's shoulder.

"Mother! Three...... The three aunts are here. ”

"What's the panic?"

Old Madam Wang glanced at the dowry list on the low table: "Put the list away." ”

"Oh...... Good. ”

Just when Wang Shuzhen was busy folding the dowry list and putting it in her sleeve pocket.

Several old women in their fifties and sixties rushed in.

……

Inside the fire room.

A big pot of white and chubby dumplings floated up on their stomachs.

"The dumplings are cooked, get out of the pot quickly."

"Oh! Okay! ”

Everyone takes the bowl with their hands and feet, and the spoon takes the spoon.

Soon.

A large pot of dumplings is all out of the pot.

Looking at the row of nine large bowls of dumplings, Xue Zijin only planned to take four bowls out, and left the rest to the cooks to taste.

But before she could speak, Qinggu came.

"Cousin! Several of the clan's side mothers came, and the old lady asked you to go out to meet them. ”

Relatives came.

Xue Zijin blinked and looked at his flour-stained clothes: "Then I'll go back and change my clothes." ”

Saying that, she raised her feet to leave, but thinking of the dumplings that had just come out of the pot, she paused again: "Qinggu! How many are there? ”

Qinggu thought that she was going to prepare a gift, so she replied with a smile: "The five old ladies from the side are here. ”

That's it!

Then her nine bowls of dumplings are just right, but there are not a few aunts now.

Xue Zijin walked to the stove and said apologetically to several cooks: "I'm sorry! I can't invite you to eat dumplings today, but I'll come tomorrow, and I'll make more of them, so I'm sure you can all taste them. ”

"Whew! What's this? We're not greedy. ”

"That's right! It's still important to be hospitable, we don't want to be greedy. ”

Several cooks said that they were not greedy, but their eyes kept glancing at the white and fat dumplings.

After Xue Zijin and Red Sleeves left, the nine bowls of dumplings were also brought to the front hall together.

"Old lady, my cousin's dumplings have been served."

After the cooks brought a few bowls of white and chubby dumplings to the low table in the side hall, Qinggu walked quickly behind her old lady and leaned over and whispered in her ear.

Old Madam Wang nodded: "Hmm! Did the old man send it over? ”

"Sent it."

Lord Lang is working in the study of the West Wing, and I'm afraid that I have already eaten it at this time!

"You go and see Jiaojiao'er and let her dress up so well."

Hum!

Even if her granddaughter is thinner, she is better looking than the granddaughters and granddaughters of several of their families.

"Yui! The old slave saved. ”

Qinggu understood, agreed and took a few steps back, then turned around and walked out of the hall quickly.

Mrs. Wang pursed her lips and said to a few old women who were still chattering: "You are blessed today, my Jiaojiao'er has just made dumplings, everyone follow me to the side hall to eat!" ”

Dumplings?

Such a precious food, what will the poor girl of the Xue family do?

Several luxuriously dressed women glanced at each other, and there was disdain in their eyes.

Taiyuan has Wang, Liu, Li, Wen, four major families, the prestige of the Wang family in the past is the most prominent.

But since Wang Shuzhen and Xue Erlang ran away, the entire Wang family always felt dwarf in front of the other three major families in Taiyuan.

As soon as they heard that Wang Shuzhen's dead girl was back, they invited each other to see what happened to the dead girl who broke off her family for a man back then.

But after seeing Wang Shuzhen, who was as thin as a homeless person, she couldn't say anything bitter and mean.

Don't breathe like that!

I always feel stuffy in my chest.

And so.

These old ladies from the side branches began to show off their daughters, granddaughters, and granddaughters.

secretly belittled Xue Zijin in the poor ravines to the point of being useless.

But Mrs. Wang is very angry!

Several people sat down in the side hall.

After seeing the white and chubby, particularly pleasing dumplings in the bowl, the depression in Mrs. Wang's heart disappeared a lot.

The third old lady in the second room of the side branch glanced at the dumplings in the bowl in front of her, pouted and said disappreciatively: "This dumpling is very good, but with this craftsmanship, it is not made by a girl who grew up in the countryside!" ”

"The second sister-in-law is right." The fourth old lady in the third room immediately chimed in: "That girl has grown to fourteen years old, but I'm afraid that she hasn't even seen dumplings, how can she make such good-looking dumplings." ”

Someone took the lead, and the other three old ladies followed.

"Alas! Even if the girl of the Xue family cooks a bowl of wheat rice by herself, it is better than letting the cook do it well and pretending to be her own credit! ”

"It doesn't matter, we're not outsiders, so we won't laugh at her."
