Chapter 502: The soft and bullying sister-in-law VS the sinister brother-in-law who was borrowed 52
Although he was not sure now, he kept writing, and a landscape painting soon appeared on the paper.
He looked at it carefully and felt that he was quite satisfied, so he carefully put it away.
I am going to take it to Mobaozhai in town to try it out in a few days.
In the evening, the family gathered together to eat. The dim candlelight illuminated everyone's faces. While eating, they discussed how to serve the wine.
No one has any objection to this.
The Chen family has a rare candidate, and the first one is Jieyuan, so naturally they have to celebrate with a drink.
Chen Xiuyuan was not very interested, so he lowered his head and ate in silence.
Although he did not express an opinion, he listened carefully.
Dad Chen looked happy and waved his hand, saying that he would set up flowing water mats for three days to make the people in the village happy.
As soon as Mrs. Wang heard that she was going to have a running water banquet, her hands trembled and she began to feel sorry for the money.
This flowing water banquet is different from the usual several tables. Guests come and eat at any time, and the dishes are on the floor one after another, like flowing water.
The cost of this is naturally higher.
She wanted to say something, but she was afraid that her youngest son would think she was stingy, so she was reluctant to spend money on drinks.
Chen Mufeng frowned. He knew what was going on at home, so he just wanted to set up a few tables.
There is really no need to set up flowing water mats. If you don’t have the wealth to show off, what can you do?
He put down his chopsticks and looked at Father Chen, "Dad, I don't object to having wine to celebrate, but the current situation of our family really shouldn't be too extravagant. Put a few tables of wine and invite relatives and friends to come and get together. That's good, the flowing water table is too expensive."
After hearing this, Father Chen looked a little ugly: "Liu Lang, what are you talking about? What do you mean? Our family finally has a successful candidate, shouldn’t we celebrate it?”
“Dad, that’s not what I meant.”
Chen Mufeng explained: “We should celebrate. Yes, but we should also act within our capabilities. Our current family situation really shouldn’t be too public.”
When Mrs. Wang saw her youngest son saying this, she quickly said: "Liu Lang is right. The current situation of our family is that we really shouldn't be too extravagant. Just put a few tables of wine for fun."
Chen Xiuhe did not speak. He doesn't have any problem with setting up several tables or running water seats.
After hearing this, Father Chen was silent for a moment. Considering the situation at home, he sighed: "Okay, then let's set up a few tables of wine to celebrate according to your wishes."
Things are settled like this.
A few days later, the Chen family set up several tables of wine and invited relatives and friends to gather.
But there were many more guests present than expected on this day, and many people even came uninvited.
Not to mention relatives, whether they are related or not, as long as they are familiar with each other, they will basically come after hearing the news.
As a result, the originally prepared seats were not enough, so we had to go to the village to borrow tables and chairs in a hurry, and put them together in the open space in the yard.
The ingredients originally prepared were not enough, so Chen Xiuhe could only hurriedly ask Chen Xiuhe to borrow the village’s ox cart to buy in the town.
While Mrs. Wang felt sorry for the money, she kept talking about it, and she did not forget to direct Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Qian to work.
Qian was so sloppy that she couldn't even wash the bowls well and accidentally broke several of them, which made Wang curse in anger.
Even the 7-year-old Da Ya works better than Qian.
Fortunately, the fourth child, Chen Sangyu, who was married to the town, and Chen Liuer, who was married to Taoyuan Village, returned to their parents' homes today. With the help of the two sisters, it was much better.
But I am still busy and never have a moment of leisure.
Wang couldn't help but think of Yu Yao at this moment, thinking that if the Sangmen Star was here, he could help right now.
Although she hates Yu Yao, she has to admit that he works quickly and the food he makes tastes great.
Even she and Zhao can't compare.
Suddenly she regretted driving him away. Seeing the lost look of the third child, she felt uncomfortable.
But it’s useless to regret, everyone is gone.
Here, Taohua has been secretly paying attention to the Chen family. Seeing that the Chen family is very busy, she has made a small calculation.
She cautiously walked towards Mrs. Wang and said softly: "Aunt Wang, I see that your family is very busy, and I would like to come over and lend a hand, okay?"
Ms. Wang was already so busy that she was dizzy. Although I still have some grudges about Mrs. Zhou's previous behavior.
But thinking that it would be good to have one more person to help, he responded casually: "Okay, then you can go to the kitchen to help Aunt Zhao."
Taohua got the permission, feeling in her heart Not to mention how happy I was, I thanked him repeatedly and turned around to help in the kitchen.
There is no need for Mrs. Zhao to give orders. She takes the initiative to find work. She is good at washing and chopping vegetables, and is diligent and quick.
Chen Sangyu and Chen Liuer were so offended that they looked at Taohua.
The two grew up in the village. Although they married separately, they also knew Tao Hua.
Seeing Taohua coming to help, she didn’t think much about it.
They can feel more relaxed when there are more than one person working, and they can also talk and laugh.
Qian just turned back to the kitchen and saw Taohua washing vegetables.
She was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but taunted: "Hey, isn't this a peach blossom? Why, you didn't succeed last time, so this time you take the virtuous route? Don't think that you can get into our Chen family by working here for a few times. Humph~"
These words instantly aroused Zhao's sneer, as well as Chen Sangyu and Chen Liuer's suspicion.
Peach Blossom's face flushed red, and her hands stopped washing vegetables.
But she quickly adjusted, bit her lip and whispered: "Aunt Qian, I'm just here to help, I have no other meaning."
Qian didn't believe it, and was about to Open your mouth and sarcastically.
Chen Sangyu hurriedly approached Qian and asked her what was going on.
Qian glanced at Chen Sangyu and knew that she would not hide it, so she told the story about Mrs. Zhou's insistence on giving Chen Mufeng a peach blossom.
Chen Sangyu has a hot temper, and she was quite happy to see Taohua come to help her. Who knew that this woman was planning on her sixth brother, and she dared to plot against her sixth brother.
That's okay, the whole person exploded instantly.
Her eyes widened, and she slapped Peach Blossom unceremoniously, scolding: "You shameless bitch, you dare to scheme against my sixth brother, you are impatient to live, aren't you? What are you planning to do now? Get out of here, I don’t need your help.”
After saying that, he stood up and drove Taohua out of the kitchen, pushing people out as he walked, without saving any face.
She was also planning to tell her sister-in-law to her sixth brother. How could she let her succeed? Of course not.
Not that Chen Sangyu was very happy for her sister-in-law to marry her sixth brother, but she couldn't bear the fact that her husband-in-law and mother-in-law kept nagging her.
My sister-in-law has been very nice to her in the past two days. She is affectionate and affectionate. She is more like a sister-in-law than a sister-in-law. She also gave her a lot of good things.
As my mother-in-law said, it is better for my sister-in-law to marry my sixth brother than to marry my sixth brother.
Although Chen Liuer and Zhao felt that Chen Sangyu's actions were a bit excessive, they didn't say anything.
Taohua was beaten and kicked out. No matter how thick-skinned she was, she was too embarrassed to stay here to help. She covered her face and ran away crying.
But after running not far, I thought about how my mother would teach me a lesson if she knew that she had been kicked back.
Maybe he won’t let himself eat.
Thinking about it, she felt aggrieved.
Taohua gritted her teeth, wiped away her tears and turned back. She avoided the people in the kitchen and sneaked into the Chen family yard through the back door.
In the front yard, Chen Mufeng was greeting Master Wu from the town.
Master Wu is his mentor, so naturally he was invited here today.
Li Mingxuan and Zhang Shuhan also came together.
In fact, Li Mingxuan was also serving wine at home, and the table was a flowing table. The scene was much more lively than here. He took the time to come here today.
I will leave after eating.
Zhang Shuhan didn’t have anything to do at home, so the mother and son invited a few elders to come over for a get-together, so they had free time today.
The three of them were sitting in the yard chatting and laughing.
Taohua rubbed her face with her hands, and with a change of heart, she sneaked into the main room and saw melon seed snacks and candies on the table in the main room.
Seeing the snacks and candies, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva. She had never eaten such good snacks and candies.
But he didn't eat it secretly. He was afraid of being seen and kicked him out.
She picked a few snacks that looked at Jin Gui, and brought them over to Chen Mufeng and the others.
Chen Mufeng was chatting lively with Master Wu, Li Mingxuan, and Zhang Shuhan when he suddenly saw Taohua coming over with snacks and frowned.
Because of what happened yesterday, he no longer has a good impression of Taohua, and he also believes that she has a purpose in showing up at Chen's house.
Taohua bravely came over with snacks, with a smile on her face, "Brother Mu Feng, this gentleman, you two young masters, I saw that you have been chatting for a long time, so I took it because I was afraid that you would be hungry. Here are some snacks to warm your stomach.”
She deliberately called Brother Mu Feng affectionately, just to make people misunderstand their relationship.
Mr. Wu smiled slightly and thought she was a female member of the Chen family. He came over to greet her, nodded and said, "This girl is really thoughtful."
Li Mingxuan and Zhang Shuhan were very fond of Chen Mufeng. Understand, Brother Chen is the youngest in the family, so where is the younger sister?
And when this girl looked at Brother Chen, her eyes were shy and timid. She was obviously not as simple as a younger sister, but more like a young girl with a budding heart.
The two looked suspicious.
Li Mingxuan picked up a cup of tea and put it to his lips, sipping it lightly. He looked at Chen Mufeng and asked with a half-smile, "Brother Chen, who is this girl? Don't you want to introduce me?" Zhang Shuhan also looked at Chen Mufeng, with a puzzled expression. With a bit of joking.
Also holding a cup of tea and sipping it gently.
Brother Chen has a sweetheart. The girl is still pregnant and waiting in Fengqi County. Why does another girl appear now?
Brother Chen doesn’t seem to be the kind of person who is half-hearted and has only one thing to do. Maybe it’s the girl’s wishful thinking or some misunderstanding.
Zhang Shuhan thought to himself, but his eyes secretly looked at the peach blossoms.
Although he looks good, he is obviously not worthy of Brother Chen.
Chen Mufeng glanced at Peach Blossom and saw her evasive eyes and slightly cold eyebrows, so he said calmly, "This is the Peach Blossom girl from the village. She came to help with the wine at home today."
Peach Blossom. Her expression changed. She didn't expect that Chen Mufeng would introduce herself so simply and straightforwardly, completely destroying the ambiguous relationship she had created.
She was unwilling to give in, but she could only force a smile and nod.
When Li Mingxuan and Zhang Shuhan heard this, they immediately understood what was going on.
This kind of thing is not surprising. A lot of similar things have happened to the two of them in the past two days.
Once a person has fame, wealth and status, as long as he looks good, countless women will naturally come to him. This is an eternal truth.
Master Wu didn't know the inside story. He just thought it was a love between young people, so he joked with a smile: "Chen Juren is young and promising, no wonder the peach blossom girl fell in love with him."
Although he He was Chen Mufeng's mentor, but he was only a scholar, and his status was not as good as Chen Mufeng's.
Chen Mufeng frowned when he heard this, but he didn't like this misunderstanding, and he didn't want his reputation to be damaged because of it.
He was about to explain.
Taohua hid her face and cried, "Brother Mu Feng, I know you despise me, but I really like you. I don't ask you to respond to me, I just hope you can give me a Chance, let me stay by your side and take care of you."
Taohua said while crying, her voice was sad and moving.
Although she is a village girl, she looks pretty.
This scene stunned several people present. They did not expect that Taohua would suddenly confess her love, let alone that she would be so persistent.
It also instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the yard.
Chen Mufeng's face became even more ugly and he was about to speak.
I saw Mrs. Wang rushing over in a menacing manner, twisting Taohua's ears and dragging her out of the door, not forgetting to curse: "You damn girl, you still dare to mess around here, I let you You stay here to work, right? Isn’t the lesson you learned yesterday enough for me to seduce my son? My Liulang is a Juren, or is it just you? Get out of here right away.” Unstoppable flow.
She shouted with a tearful voice: "Aunt Wang, I am sincere. Please give me a chance. I will take good care of Brother Mu Feng."
After hearing this, Mrs. Wang became angry. He became even more ruthless, the force on his hand became a little stronger, and he scolded: "Bah! Stop saying shameless words here, you If you were a wealthy lady, I would still consider it. You don’t care about your status and you just want to climb a high branch. There is no way!”
The guests in the yard pointed and whispered something, but It was nothing more than saying that Taohua, a village girl, also wanted to climb a high tree, with a look of contempt.
Although he was full of contempt, seeing Wang's attitude, the person who originally wanted to marry her gave up the idea.
Wang’s words just now: If Miss Qianjin would still consider it, it would naturally fall into everyone’s ears.
Most of the people present were from nearby villages, most of them from the town. Where can I meet Miss Qianjin?
Taohua was ashamed and angry. She originally thought that she could impress Chen Mufeng, even if there was only a chance, but now she was humiliated and driven away by the Wang family. She just felt that her sincerity had been stepped on. feet.
Chen Mufeng watched the chaotic scene from the side, his brows furrowed deeper.
Although my mother did this to protect herself and prevent Taohua from getting entangled again, it was indeed inappropriate to make such a fuss known to everyone, and it would also have an impact on the reputation of the Chen family.
He hurried forward to stop Ms. Wang, "Mom, calm down first, don't get so angry. I'll talk to her and let her stop thinking about it completely."
< br>
After hearing Chen Mufeng's words, Mrs. Wang let go of Taohua's ears, but she still glared at Taohua fiercely and cursed: "Humph, for the sake of my son, I will let you go today. You But listen to me, don’t do it again Let me see you pestering my son here again, otherwise you won't be able to look good!"
Peach Blossom covered her ears and cried so sadly that she said pitifully: "Aunt Wang, I know you don't like it! Me, but I really like it Brother Huan Mufeng, I am willing to do anything for him, just do it for me."
But these words made Chen Mufeng's face turn cold, he looked at Peach Blossom and said coldly: "Miss Peach Blossom, you. I accept your wishes. We already have a sweetheart, it's impossible for us, please respect yourself."
When Taohua heard this, she cried even more sadly. She never expected that Chen Mufeng would reject her so decisively, without giving herself any chance. .
The people present only thought that Chen Mufeng was just trying to break up the romantic relationship, not that he really had a sweetheart.
Even Taohua and Wang think so.
Only Li Mingxuan and Zhang Shuhan knew that what Brother Chen said was true.
Not only did she have a sweetheart, she was also pregnant, and she was waiting in Fengqi County.
Seeing this, Master Wu couldn't help but sigh: "If you ask what love is in the world, you can tell us whether life and death are mutual. Miss Peach Blossom, you are a good girl, and you will definitely meet someone who treats you sincerely in the future. People."
Peach Blossom wanted to roll her eyes when she heard this. She wanted to be an official's wife, to live a good life, to eat well and drink hot food, to be served by maids and slaves, and to take advantage of her mother's family.
If you marry a pauper, will you really treat me like a fool?
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so shameless and stalkerish.
But it was difficult for her to say these words. He continued to sob, looking really pitiful.
Seeing that she was still crying, Chen Mufeng didn't want to pester her any more.
Then he turned around and said to Master Wu and others: "Teacher, Brother Li, Brother Zhang, I have made you laugh. Let's continue chatting. Don't let such trivial matters disturb our interest."
< br>
After that, he walked over and sat down, paying no attention to this place.
Master Wu nodded, "It's okay, it's okay, the matter of a girl's love here is indeed a mess. Let's continue talking."
Li Mingxuan and Zhang Shuhan also agreed. Then, the four of them continued the previous topic.
But at this moment, a strange and sinister voice suddenly came from the crowd: "Hey, the Liulang of the Chen family is now a member of the imperial family, and he has become more arrogant. Look at how sad this girl is. It's too close. It’s a favor.”
When everyone heard this, they turned around and saw that it was Mrs. Liu who always liked to gossip.
She usually likes to stir up trouble, and now that there is a lot of fun to be seen, she naturally can't help but add a few words.
Chen Mufeng frowned, feeling a little unhappy, but he ignored it and just smiled and talked to Master Wu, Li Mingxuan, and Zhang Shuhan.
Just because he ignored it doesn't mean Wang ignored it.
Wang was so angry that she pointed at Mrs. Liu and opened her mouth to curse: "You old talker, what are you talking nonsense about here? Is it your turn to point fingers here about my Liulang's affairs? What if you? If you have nothing to do, go home and take care of your incompetent son, and don’t cause trouble here!”
Mrs. Liu's face suddenly turned ugly when Mrs. Wang scolded her like this, and she scolded back, not to be outdone: "Humph, I wanted to be fair, but you scolded me. Do you think there is something wrong with your family?" Is it great to just lift someone up? I think this one is also heartless. I pity this girl..."
Before she could finish her words, Ms. Qian pushed her out with a curse, "Go quickly, go quickly, our family is having a banquet today, it's not a place for you to act up. If you make trouble, I will stand in front of your house tomorrow and scold you." "Three days and three nights."
Mr. Zhou knows how powerful Qian is. It would be a big deal if Qian really stood in front of her house and scolded her for three days and three nights.
Her face looked a little frightened. Not to be outdone, she said a few words: "Don't be proud of me." Then she turned around and left cursing.
It caused a burst of laughter from the guests present.
Taohua was too embarrassed to continue staying at Chen's house, covered her face and ran away crying.
When she returned home, her mother, Mrs. Zhou, beat her and scolded her again, and she was not allowed to eat. Not to mention how wronged she was.
The Chen family doesn’t know about this, and even if they knew it, they wouldn’t care.
A banquet ended in a lively manner, and the guests dispersed one after another.
Sent away the guests, cleaned the yard, and borrowed tables and chairs from the village.
As soon as Chen Sangyu finished her work, she was pulled aside by her husband-in-law Lin Yu. Seeing that there was no one around, she said in a low voice: "Have you told your father-in-law and mother-in-law about my little sister?"
Chen Sangyu glanced at her husband and said angrily: "I'm so busy that I don't have time to talk."
Lin Yu looked embarrassed, but he didn't ask, he just urged her to say this quickly. thing.
Chen Sangyu snorted, but did not refuse. He wiped his hands with a rag.
Seeing her mother coming from the corner of her eye, she quickly pulled Wang into the main room and closed the door when she entered.
Wang was a little puzzled, frowned and asked: "Fourth child, what are you doing?"
Chen Sangyu looked embarrassed and pulled Mr. Wang to sit down in the room. Thinking about her sister-in-law, she couldn't help but said: "Mom, we have to hurry up and arrange the sixth brother's marriage. You see, the sixth brother is now a civil servant." , this status is different from the past. There will definitely be people who come to our door to say goodbye, but we have an idea first. No? My little girl also knows that she has a good appearance, a well-behaved and virtuous temperament, and she knows everything. If we can get married, it will be a close relationship. "
She is a well-behaved and virtuous mother-in-law. Just like that, she was a dominatrix. If it weren't for the pressure from her mother-in-law and husband-in-law, she wouldn't have bothered to say anything.
Wang squinted at Chen Sangyu. She knew in her heart that the relationship between the fourth child and her sister-in-law was not good, and her mother-in-law was also a powerful master.
Now she actually wants to tell Rokuro about her sister-in-law. Without pressure from her husband’s family, she wouldn’t believe it.
"Fourth brother, tell me honestly, did your mother-in-law and that sister-in-law say anything in your ears?"
Wang asked with serious eyes.
When Chen Sangyu was asked this question by Wang, a trace of uneasiness flashed across his face.
She hesitated for a moment and nodded awkwardly, "Mom, to tell you the truth, it is indeed my mother-in-law and sister-in-law who often talk about this matter to me. My mother-in-law said that the sixth brother now has the status of a scholar and has a bright future. , if my sister-in-law can marry my sixth brother, it will be the best marriage. My sister-in-law is also in front of me all day long. She said how much she likes her sixth brother and wants to get married to her. He has been very good to me recently. I thought that if this happened, we could get married, which would be good for us, so I wanted to tell you. This matter."
Wang frowned slightly after hearing this. Although she was very dissatisfied, she also knew that her daughter was in trouble at her husband's house.
If this is a straightforward rejection, the daughter's life in her husband's family will be even more difficult in the future.
But she really looked down on the fourth sister-in-law, who was just like the fourth mother-in-law, she was also a powerful master. How could such a girl marry Rokuro?
Today the two chapters are posted together, without splitting into chapters.
