Country roads, bushes, wildflowers.

The morning dew had just dried up, and the air was filled with the freshness of flowers and plants and the faint smell of earth.

In the fields on both sides of the path, the early farmers have already begun to work, using bamboo rakes to hug the straw in the field, clearing the fields, and the smoke of the people in the distance is curling, a quiet and peaceful.

Occasionally, a breeze blows a pool of spring water and picks up the strands of hair.

Dumb walked in front with Xue Xiaoying on his shoulder, the old scalper pulled the car behind, and several adults followed behind.

Except for the children, no one rode in the ox cart.

All these years have passed, and Lao Huang is already old.

There are enough loads in the car, so naturally I can't burden Lao Huang anymore.

More than ten miles of road is not far, and it didn't take long for everyone to arrive at the gate of the Xue family.

Dumb looked up at the Xue family, he hadn't seen him for a few years, but when he looked at it today, he felt a strangeness and strangeness in his heart.

The gate is still the same gate, and the wooden gate has been damaged a lot.

Dumb grabbed the knocker and buckled the door.

Dangdangdang.......

A crisp sound sounded, and after a while, an angry curse came from inside.

"Who, knock knock, knock in the morning, knock hard, go to the door to mourn. ”

"Bah, what am I talking about, it's really unlucky. ”

Hearing this familiar voice, the corners of Dumb's mouth twitched slightly, it is really easy to change his nature and difficult to change, and after so many years, his eldest mother still has not changed.

After a while, the eldest daughter-in-law opened the door, looked at Dumb and didn't recognize it, frowned, and said, "Who are you?

Dumb said, "Auntie, I'm dumb." ”

"Dumb?" the eldest daughter-in-law's pupils shrank suddenly when she heard this, "Are you the dumb of the second family?"

Seeing that the eldest daughter-in-law didn't recognize it, Father Xue walked up and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, this is Dumb, I don't recognize it." ”

The eldest daughter-in-law sighed, "I haven't seen you for so many years, I didn't expect it to grow so big." ”

Dumb smiled, "Auntie, how is my brother doing?"

The eldest daughter-in-law smiled smugly at the corner of her mouth when she heard this, "That bastard boy is still working hard in the house to do the test questions, and he is preparing for the exam." ”

"Just the year before last, your eldest brother Xue Tao had already passed the college examination and was admitted to Miaocai. ”

"If you work hard this time, you have a good chance of being able to pass the Yushi exam. ”

"Eh, dumb, don't blame the aunt for speaking badly, in the past few years, the aunt has heard from the town that your luck has been tried in the town, so you haven't been tested yet, I don't know if it's true. ”

"What does the eldest lady say, don't take it to heart, don't remember the eldest mother's hatred. ”

Dumb's eyes flashed with a strange light when he heard this, and then he smiled and said, "Auntie said that it was funny, what Dumb said is the truth, over the years, Dumb has followed his master to cultivate immortals, and has never participated in the immortal examination." ”

"Oh!" said the eldest daughter-in-law's eyes with contempt.

The so-called mother is more expensive than her son, what is the comparison of being a mother?

I don't believe Dumb's sentence 'I have been cultivating immortals with my master for eight years, so I have never participated in the immortal exam'.

Is she really stupid?

Is there a conflict between participating in the immortal exam and cultivating immortals?

There is no conflict at all.

This is clearly that I didn't take the exam, so I made up such a lie.

It's been eight years, and the former leader Zhun Miaocai didn't even get into the Miaocai, and his son Xiaotao was admitted to the Miaocai the year before last.

In such a comparison, his son is the most promising of the old Xue family.

The eldest daughter-in-law's chest suddenly rose with a sense of superior pride, and she spoke with confidence, "Dumb is not the eldest lady talking about you, you should also work hard." ”

On the side, Xue Mu couldn't listen to it anymore, and snorted coldly, "Old man, you won't just let us stand outside like this, right?"

The eldest daughter-in-law glanced at Xue Mu when she heard this, her chest suddenly stood tall, glanced at Xue Mu, and snorted softly, "Wait." ”

After speaking, the eldest daughter-in-law walked in a figure-eight step, slowly returned to the courtyard, and opened the door without hurrying, thinking in her heart that the second family must spit out tens of thousands of lower grade spirit stones, and then buy more test questions for his family Xiaotao, this time he will definitely be able to go to high school.

The ox cart was pulled into the Xue family's compound, and Dumb helped Xue's father carry bags of flour into the house.

Seeing this, the eldest daughter-in-law on the side said in a low voice, "I know how to get these small favors." ”

Mother Xue saw that her family brought food to her hometown and gave them food and drink, not only was the old family not grateful, but also said in a weird way, Xue Mu suddenly became angry and said angrily, "Old family, what do you say?"

"Why, I didn't hear clearly, then I'll make it clearer, I said that your second family knows how to get these little favors. ”

At this time, Boss Xue heard the noise and came over.

He knew that his mother would pinch the second family as soon as they met.

Boss Xue immediately said, "Child, it's rare for the second family to come back once, and they will worship their ancestors in a while, so let's not quarrel a few words." ”

The eldest daughter-in-law glared fiercely, thinking in her heart that now is not the time to turn her face, everything will be said after worshipping the ancestors, so she snorted coldly and did not say anything more.

Boss Xue smiled with Mother Xue again, "Brother and sister, don't be surprised. ”

Dumb walked over and patted Mother Xue on the back and smiled, "Mother, it's time to meet grandpa and grandma." ”

Mother Xue stopped arguing, no longer paid attention to the eldest daughter-in-law, and walked towards the back room to see Old Man Xue and the Zhao family.

"Mother, father, how are you doing lately?" said Xue Mu with a smile.

Master Xue put on a new set of clothes today, ninety percent new, made of fine fabric, soft and comfortable to wear, not like the previous linen clothes rough and grinding skin pain on the body.

Coupled with the good food and drink over the years, Old Man Xue was full of red light, took a puff of cigarette pouch and said with a smile.

"Okay, thanks to you and the second child, we have lived a good life over the years, much better than before, hehe, fortunately we have you and the second child in our family, dad has to thank you." ”

Xue Mu was relieved for a while, and said with a smile, "Dad, it's all due, what do you say thank you or not!"

On the side, Zhao's face was calm when she heard this, and the more she looked at Xue Mu's smiling face, the more she felt hypocritical, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt hateful.

Over the years, she has earned more than 56,000 lower-grade spirit stones, but she has only given more than 1,000 to her family, which is not even a fraction of what she earns.

They live in a big house in the town, warm in spring and cool in summer, but they let themselves live in this small house in this poor country, which is bitterly cold in winter and hot in summer.

She was really confused at the beginning, why did she let the second child marry such a stingy daughter-in-law in the first place?

If I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have signed that contract in the first place.

Now thinking about the scene at that time, her unfilial daughter-in-law deliberately wanted to add the last one, and she had already calculated it.

This unfilial daughter-in-law is thoughtful enough and scheming deep enough!
