Chapter Twenty-Four: Shut the Old Fellow's Mouth
"How can my mother be like this? She is reluctant to buy a piece of flower cloth if I want to, but she is willing to buy something for an irrelevant broom star! Zhao Lingxiu twisted the veil, completely forgetting that the old lady didn't even have a place to live before, and she was afraid of being implicated and avoided it.
"Your brother was kicked out of the house, and the money in my hand was taken away by my mother, and my mother is determined to break off relations with us." Li Yunjuan wiped tears from his side face and said to Zhao Lingxiu: "What are you talking about?" My mother didn't want to see me, I still left first, and when she saw it, I had to scold you for getting close to me. ”
Li Yunjuan pressed the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief, lowered his head and walked away from Zhao Lingxiu's line of sight, but hid diagonally and peeked at this side.
Zhao Hong didn't know that Li Yunjuan instigated Zhao Lingxiu to come to her for trouble, so she bought two new clothes for Gouyu, and she also bought two of them herself, both of which were made of muslin, and she was comfortable and not ostentatious.
But when it was time to settle the bill, Zhao Hong just handed over the broken silver, and the hand holding the money bag was empty.
didn't wait for Zhao Hong to shout to catch the thief, so he heard Zhao Lingxiu shouting angrily: "Mother, how can you be so ruthless? The money you snatched from my sister-in-law, regardless of the lives of your children and grandchildren, you want to buy something for this broom star, aren't you afraid that my brother and I will be cold? ”
Zhao Hong forgot about this cheap girl, but he didn't expect to meet here.
Although she doesn't often walk around the town at present, Zhao Hong, who plans to start a career, still has to take care of her reputation, and now everyone in the cloth village is pointing fingers at her, Zhao Hong can't carry an unclear and vicious reputation in vain.
Taking back the money bag, Zhao Hong looked at Zhao Lingxiu, who was unlucky, this cheap girl's luck is not good, but unfortunately she is too lazy to remind her, it is not worth it to consume her luck for this kind of person.
"Dog leftover, you wait for your cousin at the door with something, cover your ears, and be obedient." Zhao Hong smiled and patted the dog Yu's shoulder, not wanting him to feel uncomfortable staying inside.
"Cousin ......" Gou Yu looked at Zhao Hong distressedly, he didn't understand such a good cousin, why did the children always yell at her, didn't they feel sorry for the cousin's difficulty?
"Well, we have to make a banquet when we go back, we can't delay it too long." Zhao Hong gently pushed the dog left, watched him out of Buzhuang, and when he turned to look at Zhao Lingxiu, who was full of anger, his face instantly turned cold.
"Mother, I am your daughter, how can you be better to an outsider than me?" Zhao Ling stomped his feet angrily, even more afraid that Zhao Hong would give his property to outsiders.
"Zhao Lingxiu, when your brother took all the family wealth to curry favor with Li Yunjuan's slut, and sold the house left by my father and mother to the casino, I, Zhao Hong, should have never given birth to that evil obstacle!"
"When I was homeless and lived in a thatched hut, relying on the relief of the villagers but still worried about you, and was rejected by you by pretending to be sick, I should have never given birth to you, a white-eyed wolf. If you want to marry in the future, I will prepare a dowry for you according to the rules of the village, and you don't have to think about the mother-daughter relationship anymore, and don't say goodbye. ”
Zhao Hong simply said it clearly, as for whether it would affect Zhao Lingxiu's reputation, it was all Zhao Lingxiu's own fault.
"Mother, how can you say that? Where am I pretending to be sick! Zhao Lingxiu said uncertainly.
Zhao Hong was too lazy to talk to the cheap girl, and said impatiently: "Okay, if you are willing to contact Li Yunjuan, I won't stop you." But her reputation is rotten, you'd better inquire, don't be dragged into getting married, I won't bother about your marriage. ”
"Mother, what do you mean by that? Sister-in-law, she is such a good person, why do you have to speak ill of her? Zhao Lingxiu dragged Zhao Hong, who was about to leave, and asked urgently.
"Yes, she Li Yunjuan is not a good person. While fooling her ex-husband into stealing all the family property for her flowers, she was messing around with her old lover in the house in broad daylight, which was witnessed by the people of both villages. ”
"Heh, it's just that you brothers and sisters who don't have brains will be deceived by her. Hurry up and let go, don't delay me from getting busy with business, look at you more, I regret that I didn't bring a brain when I gave birth to you, and I don't believe in my mother's idiot who helps outsiders! ”
Pushing Zhao Lingxiu away, Zhao Hong strode out of the cloth village, holding things in one hand and pulling the dog to leave with the other, leaving Zhao Lingxiu alone to be pointed at in the cloth village.
As the saying goes, listen to the sound, although the customers in the shop don't know the family, they also hear that something is wrong.
It is not difficult to verify whether what Zhao Hong said is true or false, but it is unfilial piety for Zhao Lingxiu to shout at his wife when he enters the house, but it is extremely realistic for Zhao Hong's last sentence.
"Looking at a girl who is quite beautiful, why don't you have a long brain? What her mother said just now, her brother and sister-in-law are not a family anymore, but she doesn't believe her own mother, but she is really long-hearted. ”
"It's not like that, if it's me, I don't dare to admit it if I have such a child, and sooner or later I will be angry to death!"
Where could Zhao Lingxiu stand these gossips, and she was even more afraid that someone would recognize which embroidery workshop she was from and would not be able to keep her job, so she hurriedly covered her face and ran out of the cloth village.
said that Zhao Hong, who originally wanted to visit Old Man Shen, was not in the mood now, so he simply hired an ox cart to go back to the village.
The things in the half-ox cart were moved to the house, and Zhao Hong and Zhou Xinghua were busy tidying up a table of dishes, and sent the dog to invite the village chief and his family to come over for dinner.
There was no man in the family, and it happened that Zhou Dasheng was not good at walking, so he set up a table in the Zhou family's house, so that the village chief and Zhou Dasheng could have a good meal, and the women ate and drank at the Zhao family.
"Zhao Hong, do you really plan to adopt the dog and leave this child?" After the children were full and got off the table, Shen asked with a little bit of wine.
Zhao Hong understood that this was Zhao Fugui's meaning, so he replied: "I can't talk about adoption, I can't count on this child, it just so happens that the dog is left with this child, and it is still the blood of our old Zhao family, it is for him to eat, if I can't count on it in the future, there is nothing, I can buy two mothers-in-law and serve myself." ”
"How's that happening? You don't want to think about who will pick up your grave after you leave, your father's incense can't be broken. Shen said urgently.
"The dog is the only seedling in the family, if he is adopted, won't the incense be broken in his family? My sister-in-law is good for me, I know it in my heart, but I can't damage my father's yin virtue. If the dog remembers my love for raising him in the future, and marries a wife and has a son, it will be the best of both worlds. Zhao Hong said with a smile.
As a modern person, Zhao Hong does not value incense, and it is not environmentally friendly.
But in ancient times, Zhao Hong still had to talk about it according to the thinking of this era, and it would save someone to persuade her, or the idea of inheriting her family business.
This can be regarded as the benefit of adopting a dog, after all, the dogs are the descendants of the Zhao family, which is enough to block the mouths of those old guys in the clan.
Hearing this, the Shen family didn't want to say anything, but Zhou Xinghua opened her mouth, and finally just picked up the wine glass and said: "Today is a good day for Zhao Hong's warm stove, let's not talk about this, come, take a sip and be happy." ”
Not to mention Zhao Hong's pleasure of eating and drinking, Lin Yuan, who spent the last bit of silver, came to Li Yunjuan's house drunk and slammed the door that was back.
"Li Yunjuan, you open the door for Lao Tzu!"
