You don't need to ask your mother-in-law to answer this question. The old lady is snobbish and wants to be coaxed. Why don't I just prescribe the right medicine for your daughter?
Zhou Banxia thought to herself, nodding hurriedly and knowingly, trying her best to be obedient like a well-behaved girl, which made Mrs. Li burst into laughter again.
After leaving the upper room and walking to the door, Zhou Banxia did not dare to ask her mother to send her out.
Listen, the sound of firecrackers is ringing.
The ancestor worship ceremony is over.
Although there is a cook at home, the mother of the family still has to take care of the New Year's Eve dinner. Soon, her father and son will be home.
Unlike her father-in-law who attaches great importance to the brotherly relationship between his parents, he learned that his old son was being plotted against by his eldest brother, and at best they would not have any contact with each other. If it were her father, he would not care about you, eldest brother.
You are unkind and you still want me to be righteous?
If you are weak, there is nothing you can do about it, and you can beat the sap even if you steal it.
Her father didn't care whether he had any evidence or not. Her two sisters were sold, and her father had to "serve" the eldest brother every year.
Are you not the favored eldest son?
The surrogate mother should be punished.
Even now, even old man Zhou Daniu is afraid of "falling" when he goes out after dark.
Her father was very angry.
If she went to the ancestral hall to worship her ancestors today, those blood relatives would definitely be present. Her father would not be happy to stay with those people for one more second. As soon as the ancestor worship ceremony was over, he would definitely go home immediately.
Fortunately, when Maidong returned to the manor to pick up things, he knew how to come by carriage. Zhou Banxia couldn't care less about the short few steps and quickly got into the carriage.
If you leave Ophiopogon japonicus at your parents' house to send back gifts, you won't be caught by your father.
Not only was her father very angry, he was also not an ordinary thrifty man.
Even if her children now support him and have a few taels of silver on hand, if her father sees her return a gift worth more than croquettes, and if she doesn't feel like beating and scolding the children on New Year's Eve, her father will get angry with her.
If Maidong had left the gifts and sent them back, there wouldn't be the problem of her father being anxious. No matter how frugal her father was, he would never let her, a daughter, not be able to make the decision in front of the maid and mother-in-law.
No matter how heartbroken her father was, no matter how annoyed he was, no matter how much he disliked her for being loose-handed, the most he wanted to do was wait until the Chinese New Year before giving her a good lesson.
Hehe, just wait until the New Year is over and we can have a good time.
"Is that your third sister's carriage?"
Zhou Shun exchanged greetings with his clan brothers and left the Zhou family ancestral hall. On his way home, he would have to walk a hundred steps or so before he could reach home, when he saw a carriage leaving in the opposite direction in front of him.
Xiaohe jumped up and stretched his neck, shaking his father's big hand that was holding his little hand, "Yes, daddy, it's the big carriage with the big couch inside."
Dajiang looked at his younger brother without saying a word.
Xiaohe immediately stood up and said, "Brother, it's New Year's Eve and we are the earliest to come back. Everyone is either at home or in the ancestral hall.
Dad, Third Sister must have gone home first. This is not the carriage that usually brings things here. Why didn’t Third Sister wait for me to come back? ”
You must have done something that you are afraid of being scolded by you and me. Otherwise, don't set off firecrackers too loudly in the ancestral hall, otherwise you won't be heard. Why are you running away in such a hurry!
Zhou Shun smiled and shook his head, "Your third sister is acting carefully. It's not that far away. She won't be able to see your third sister at any time. She wants to rush back before your third brother-in-law and the others get home.
Learn more, listen to the master in books, how to do things and deal with people on weekdays, you should pay more attention to how your third sister is doing, it won't hurt.
It’s not good to just stare at books all the time. You should listen more and look at things outside, and think more about things in your mind. What would happen if it were your third sister and third brother-in-law? Especially you, Dajiang, your brother is still young, he can still slowly ponder and learn, but you are different. Since you are determined to make a breakthrough, it is up to you to realize it.
Okay, let's not talk anymore. Let's go in quickly and see what good things your third sister has done when she comes back. Listen to your mother's laughter, which can make the whole village listen. ”
Ojiang, who was a little late and wanted to express his stance:...
"Brother, hurry up."
"Here we come." Dajiang quickly walked to the other side of his father, "Dad, you are very good, better than anyone else. My son will live up to his expectations. Be careful on the steps."
Zhou Shun wanted to praise his son as passionately as his in-law Gu Erzhu, but in the end he patted his son on the shoulder and said, "I'm too tired. We can't be hungry at home."
"Okay, my son understands."
"My son also understands, daddy."
"Well, tell me, what do you understand?"
"Look more, listen more, talk less -" Xiaohe covered his mouth and giggled, jumped forward a few steps, shouted at the top of his voice, "Mom, we are back~"
"Dad, isn't Xiaohe very smart? He is much smarter than when I was a child."
"You are wise early, and in terms of cleverness, you are not inferior to your brother. Among you siblings, you can actually tell from birth that the smartest one is-" Thursday paused, turning his head to look in the direction of the ancestral hall, " Your second sister. Your eldest sister is quick with words and quick with hands.
Your second sister doesn't talk much, but she's thoughtful and big-hearted. Your eldest sister listens to her. She can be half the family, but she's too smart and thinks too much. ”
Dad must have been too smart but was misled by his cleverness. Dajiang quickly interrupted his father to remember his second sister who unfortunately died young, so that his father would not blame himself again.
"What about the third sister after she was born?"
"The most sensible and well-behaved. Your third sister seems to have known since she was born that she was not welcome to see her. Your eldest sister and second sister can't be coaxed even if they cry and fuss after they are born.
Your third sister didn't howl even when she was hungry. She was very tolerant of being a small ball, and she only whimpered quietly when someone came to her.
If she is full and extremely well-behaved, she will not cry if anyone troubles her. Just like now, it is rare that she smiles when she is unhappy.
Several times when I was a child, my body felt uncomfortable and my whole body felt weak. If I asked her what was wrong, she would still fake a smile and say that she was fine and that she was sleepy.
I was born as a sensible child just like you. Except for the first year of my life when I was born, my body was not big enough for my father to worry about. I was also the child who gave my father the most peace of mind. ”
Dajiang smiled, "The third sister was not very healthy when she was a child, wasn't she?"
"Yes." Shushun Wangtian said on Thursday, he almost couldn't raise her, so he asked God to bless him, "Your third sister was born less than a hundred days ago, and you were almost one year old when you were born and you were frozen.
The best ones to take care of are you two siblings. You and your third sister are the most similar. We were both born weighing 5 pounds and 6 taels each, and they were both born the next day when the sun came out.
The most coincidental thing is that it rained for two consecutive days when your mother was about to give birth to you two. The next day when you and your brother and sister were born, the rain stopped and the sun came out just in time.
As the saying goes, ‘If you don’t give birth to a girl at noon, you won’t have a boy at midnight. ’ According to the older generation, you were born at the best time, and it happened to be sunny that day.
When you were just born, your father was still worried that you wouldn't be able to suppress your good fortune, so he asked your third grandma and the others to hold you. He thought he had suppressed you, but he didn't expect that you were almost one year old and still frozen.
Co-writing is just a villain. As soon as our family takes over, your uncle will come to see your third sister. Even you are a scholar, and everything goes smoothly. "(End of Chapter)
