Chapter 44: Happy Day, Buqi
As her voice fell, the air around her became thinner.
But Yu Tingwan didn’t want to mention it too much, lest he get caught in the mess.
The Zhou family’s father-in-law and daughter-in-law can ignore human ethics, what else can’t they do? If after seeing things leaked, she would hold a grudge and come to Wei's house to cause trouble while Wei Shouzhong was not at home. How could she and Huiniang, two women, resist?
There is really no need to put yourself in it just for fifty cents. It is better to do less than to do more.
However, she also revealed in a gentle voice: "We can't hide this matter, I guess in a few days we will have to..."
She paused, listened to the words, and just said: "Auntie, don't worry. ”
Yes, Matchmaker Liu will be caught and raped by Li Lian.
Seeing her firm tone, Aunt Wu was convinced.
She watched Zhou Qin grow up, and she suffered a lot at the hands of her stepmother Liu Matchmaker in the early years! However, her short-lived father and mean grandfather disliked her for being a girl and turned a blind eye to her, leaving her to be treated harshly by her stepmother.
At that time, Matchmaker Liu wanted to marry her stepdaughter far away. Relying on his sharp tongue, he praised a drunkard and a womanizer as a rare good son-in-law.
If Zhou Qin’s grandmother hadn’t heard the letter and came over to make a fuss, followed by several uncles carrying hoes aggressively to back her up, the child would have been tricked.
Although the scandal was revealed, the whole family was embarrassed.
But...
Aunt Wu slapped her thigh: "Okay, then I'll let her go back and wait!"
She and Zhou Qin wished that Matchmaker Liu would be unlucky!
Aunt Wu felt relieved and no longer gritted her teeth.
She looked at Yu Tingwan with a smile.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but I always feel that this girl’s face has become less pale and more rosy after not seeing her for a few days.
Even the chin is not that pointy anymore.
"I came to see you today for one more thing."
Aunt Wu: "My Erlang caught a rabbit, which is very fat. He plans to stew it later. You have to come to the house for dinner."< br>
If it hadn’t been for Yu Tingwan, Xiufen might not have been able to keep the baby in her belly. Aunt Wu liked Yu Tingwan and was willing to be generous.
At this moment, voices came from next door.
“Master, where did you put the dieffenbachia at home? I put it in the house yesterday, but why did it disappear?”
"Have the couplets posted inside and outside the house? Aren't there a few more of them saying 'Six Livestocks Are Prosperous'? Don't forget to paste them on the chicken coop."
"Uncle, his legs and feet have not changed. Go back and pick him up in person. He has treated us well over the years, and we cannot lack the courtesy."
It was Huiniang's voice.
Aunt Wu was surprised to hear that there were no pastimes in the countryside, and what happened to each family could be discussed privately for days.
She nuzzled at Yu Tingwan next door.
"It's also strange. Is the Wei family going to have a happy event? And Alang of the Wei family was injured like that. When he came back, he fell to the ground bloody, and they said he couldn't save him."
Old man Qian's medical skills were hers. I don't believe it.
Before, Xiufen had a stomachache, and old man Qian didn’t even know she was pregnant.
Aunt Wu couldn't help but ask: "Mother, you are close to the Wei family, do you know who you are marrying?"
Yu Tingwan:...
Then you've asked the right person.
She knows so much!
But before she could open her mouth, Aunt Wu took the lead.
She patted her thigh: "Look how confused I am. You and the Wei family don't have any contact. I'm afraid it's just a matter of saying hello when we bump into each other on the road. What can I know?"
Yu Ting Wan is a loner and is not a girl who wants to socialize with others.
Aunt Wu remembered that Yu Tingwan was going out just now. She knew that Yu Tingwan often went into the mountains, and her expression turned solemn.
“My Erlang learned hunting from an old hunter before. He often went into the mountains for tooth hunting festivals, but he didn’t dare to go deep into the mountains. He always walked around the outside. But when he came back this morning, he He said he saw the footprints of beasts lingering on the snow.”
Oh, it’s scary to think about it.
“You must not go into the mountains during these days.”
Yu Tingwan: “Don’t go into the mountains.”
That's good.
Aunt Wu warned again: "Remember to come home for dinner, the rabbits cooked by aunt are delicious."
Yu Tingwan Wentun said: "Then...maybe I can't come."
"Why, what's the matter with you?"
Yu Tingwan said in a light voice: "I have to take the time to go next door to get married."
Aunt Wu:? ? ? ————
Yu Tingwan entered the Wei family with brisk steps.
When she arrived, Huiniang was wiping dieffenbachia in the yard. There were red papers on the side, as well as dyed wedding eggs and peanuts.
“Why are you up so early?”
Seeing her, Huiniang's smile became even stronger.
She spread the happy eggs and peanuts on the red paper, and then carefully wrapped the dieffenbachia in it to avoid scattering. She also tied the knots with red rope.
This is when the bride is asked to carry her across the brazier.
Hui Niang grabbed the peanut on the side again, pinched the head a little harder, heard a clicking sound, opened her mouth, and then bit the dieffenbachia leaf.
But after a while, red and green peanuts were hung on the evergreens, which was very festive.
Seeing Yu Tingwan watching from the side, Huiniang said.
“I’ve steamed some sweet potatoes. Let’s go to the kitchen house and eat some to fill our stomachs.”
Yu Tingwan responded.
In addition to sweet potatoes, there is also... Wei Zhao, who is peeling sweet potatoes with listless eyes and empty eyes.
Wei Zhao was woken up early in the morning by the voices of Wei Shouzhong and Huiniang.
He wanted to continue lying down, but Wei Shouzhong insisted that he come out and try the crutches he had made overnight.
He peeled it off a few times and stuffed it into his mouth.
It tastes like chewing wax.
Seeing Yu Tingwan come in late, he didn't even bother to raise his head.
Yu Tingwan picked up the crutch at his feet and looked at it curiously, not forgetting to try out the feel.
"Uncle..."
Yu Tingwan paused.
This title needs to be changed.
She was extremely natural, without any shyness: "My father's craftsmanship is really good."
Wei Zhao didn't know how Yu Tingwan managed to adapt so smoothly.
He asked vaguely: "Like it?"
Yu Tingwan nodded: "Yeah."
With crutches, Wei Zhao will have to move around more. If you lie down all day, you will get sick even if you are not sick, let alone sick.
Wei Zhao: "That's for you."
He doesn't have to throw it away himself.
If you really think about it, this is Wei Zhao's wedding gift.
Who gave me crutches?
Can she use it!
Even if Yu Tingwan could guess his ulterior motives, he could not bear to face him.
Don’t be angry on a big day.
The little girl was silent for a long time.
For so long Wei Zhao felt that the kitchen house was so quiet and strange.
Wei Zhao was confused: "What's wrong?"
Yu Tingwan finally found her voice, without any ups and downs of emotion: "If I try again, I'll make my legs lame. Otherwise, if you keep it, it will gather dust.”
If it were a discerning person who knew that the girl’s family was the most duplicitous, she would have apologized with a smile.
But Wei Zhao didn't.
His eyes moved.
“Want to help?”
Yu Tingwan could no longer bear it and raised her hand to hit him.
She is really strong.
It hurts quite a bit, but it’s all because of this, and I know how to avoid the vital injuries.
After living for so many years, Wei Zhao was beaten for the first time.
