Chapter 452 Worried Father-in-law
Ms. Liu was worried that her newborn baby, including her pregnant daughter-in-law, would be frozen one day, and her family would have people put on the kang early this year.
The west wing leads from the inner room of the south room to the study room of the north room. Even though the windows are often opened for ventilation, it is still very hot. When I arrived on Thursday, I was busy taking off my jacket.
There is nothing we can do.
The child's mother was too noisy, and even forced him to put on his jacket early because of what her daughter-in-law said, saying that she was not afraid of being hot but not afraid of freezing when it was cold.
According to him, Sanya purchased a lot of silk, cotton, etc., and she prepared several winter coats for everyone in the family as if for free.
The eldest men of any family are going back and forth in the village before it snows. Why should the daughter-in-law let the head of the family go out in such thick clothes so early?
It was already dark and the night was cold, so he and his two sons teamed up to grab him, the head of the family, and forced him to put on more clothes before letting him go out.
Listening to Zhou Shunhao's unintentional "complaints", Zhou Banxia was amused and relieved. Her mother knew better and better how to take good care of her father.
In fact, her father is not difficult to take care of. Apart from being afraid of poverty and reluctant to waste money, uh, he is also afraid that her mother will use her money to supplement her parents' family. He is a perfect husband.
Although she was not as protective as her father-in-law, who treated his daughter-in-law like jewels, her father never looked down on his daughter-in-law in front of others, as if it could elevate his own status.
Even though Dajiang hadn't been born yet and the old woman cursed her daughter-in-law because her mother gave birth to three losers in succession, which caused her mother's low status in that family, her father still protected his daughter-in-law.
At the very least, as long as her father is at home when he is not looking for work in the town, the girls in that family will not dare to bully her mother in front of her father.
This is why she hates her grandfather for insulting her father for not being able to protect his daughter. How can a father know what his daughter is like!
I still wonder how her father will protect her!
Her father finally secretly saved up enough copper coins for hard labor and came to the house to ask his father-in-law to raise two chickens for his daughter-in-law's confinement in the name of his family, but he was humiliated!
Now she regrets it. It's too late. No matter how down-to-earth her father is, Zhou Banxia's father is not a cat or dog that can be humiliated. She can remember this hatred for the rest of her life.
"What are you doing? Sit peacefully." Seeing that his daughter couldn't reach the fruit plate and pushed it in front of him and wanted to stand up, Zhou Shushun quickly stopped him, "Look at you, you are so old and you don't know you are pregnant. Dad just ate it. If you want to eat, dad will get it yourself. Just sit down for me.”
"I can't stretch it."
"Are you talking back? Be careful and you won't make a big mistake..."
Gu Wenxuan silently moved the fruit plate that his wife wanted to move to his father-in-law's eyes, waiting for the father-daughter conversation to come to an end, otherwise he would not be on anyone's side.
If he dares to nod in agreement with his father-in-law, hehe, this good father-in-law will magically mistakenly think that he is his uncle and takes the opportunity to teach his pregnant daughter a lesson.
To sum it up in the words of his brother-in-law Li Chunsheng, his father-in-law is usually afraid that his daughter will be wronged in her husband's family, let alone when his daughter becomes pregnant.
When the eldest sister-in-law was pregnant with her first child, their good father-in-law told the aunt-in-law that he would be even more angry when the eldest daughter was pregnant.
All in all, when his daughter is pregnant and has children for his uncle, the uncle, who has no conscience, has to endure the huge resentment and coax his wife to give birth to the child before settling the score.
Even though their mother-in-law gave birth to many daughters, and the family lived together and the food was poor at that time, their father-in-law still coaxed her into giving birth to children smoothly.
When it comes to the influence of pregnant women's emotions on fetal development and whether childbirth is normal, his father-in-law is the originator, and he already understood the cause-and-effect relationship even when he didn't know a single word.
"...Okay, it's getting late, and dad wants to talk to my uncle about serious matters. If you want to listen, just sit still and don't move. If you don't listen, let Mai Huang help you back to the house and lie down." Zhou Banxia immediately put his hands on his legs. , sat upright, amusing Gu Wenxuan who was concentrating his thoughts, but still managed to laugh out loud.
Looking at his uncle and daughter who were so happy for a while, Zhou Shun couldn't help but laugh. At the same time, he quickly started to get down to business.
Before going out, I heard from his family Dajiang that it was almost Xu Shi (seven o'clock in the evening). If there was such a delay, it would be almost Xu Shizheng if it wasn't even Xu Shiquan.
There are five shifts a night.
The first watch is at the quarter of the first day of Xu, the second watch is at the third moment of the first lunar month, and the third watch is at the third hour of the twelfth lunar month.
It was already midnight, and if he didn't hurry up and get down to business, his family would be delayed again. Sanya went back to her room early to rest. She slept late and couldn't make up for it with anything to eat.
"Let's talk about the first thing first." Zhou Shun reminded his uncle to listen carefully, "If you want to ask someone to lay the adobe, I guess you won't be able to make it in time for the service in two days.
Fortunately, making adobe bricks was originally a task that should be done when the weather was hot in the first two or three months. In the past few days, almost all the adobe bricks that can be purchased have been purchased. ”
She knew that her father must be worried about her spending money to buy blue bricks to build the tofu shop and oil pressing shop at the entrance of Gujiazhuang Village, so he must have made reservations for the adobe bricks with someone early.
"I asked you, Uncle Chang Gen, to do the math. According to his calculation, he said that based on the drawings, the area at the entrance of Gujiazhuang Village should be enough."
but!
"It's a pity that this year's corvee is not included. Our villages are building roads from the west part of the city. If the silt is cleared and the river is widened, not many people will go there."
Look at how sorry you are to my father-in-law. Believe it or not, if you say this, even my wife and I will not be able to protect you. You will definitely be beaten with a sack!
Gu Wenxuan suppressed a smile and nodded to show that he heard, "It doesn't matter, this is already very good. We won't move it to the paper mill for the time being. We will wait until next year to have time."
Yes, that’s what I mean. Anyway, the workshop is enough. It’s not too late to surround the entrance of Gujiazhuang Village first. Zhou Shushun nodded repeatedly.
"On the other hand, in Zhuangzi over in Hexi, the weather will only get colder and colder. Wouldn't it be better to renovate the pig pens and sheep pens our family currently has built?"
Even if my uncle didn't mention this matter, Zhou Shun had already mentioned it to his good brother Zhou Changgen two days ago, "Your uncle Changgen will send a few people over there tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to sort things out.
Apart from these things, is there anything else that needs to be changed? If you can't tell clearly right now, it's best if you take some time to go out with me tomorrow.
After taking a look around, we will see what needs to be fixed first and what can be dealt with after the new year. I just happened to take advantage of the fact that no major construction has started in the past two days to sort it out. ”
This is the second thing.
Gu Wenxuan looked at Zhou Banxia.
Zhou Banxia looked shocked, "Can I go for a spin too?"
"Think of something beautiful."
But no, why don’t you go hiking!
"My uncle, I want to hear what you have to say." Zhou Shun shook his head and smiled, "No need to ask Sanya, just walk around our village and it won't take two hours.
That's it, let's just choose tomorrow's afternoon. Don't forget to bring Zhi Ming or Jia Xing with you and let them run errands, so as not to delay your study. ”
