Duan Zhang's heart was happy, and his face kindly stretched out his hand to pull the "woman", and walked in with her, turning back to let Lanhua help the second sister to follow. Gossiping with the "woman" as he walked, what happened to Haoping during these days, whether he was in good health, and what errands he did. The second sister bowed her head and followed, listening with her ears upright.
This sister-in-law's maiden name is Wei, and her girlfriend's name is Yuzhen. I heard that she was a scholar of scholars in her family. When Duan Zhangshi mentioned this, the sister-in-law looked back proudly and proudly at her second sister who was born in the countryside compound.
The second sister bowed her head, but thought in her heart, the scholars who have been in the family are already scholars. If you are an official, you will not fly to the sky
The group of people slowly swayed to a yard, and the second sister was dumbfounded after raising her foot to enter the door. She has not seen such a small yard in nearly ten years since she came here, it is only half the corridor of Wu's house! This can also be called a yard? It looked like a half-yard, with two big houses on the left next to each other, and a hut at the end of the wall. There were only three houses in total.
Seeing the second sister staring at the yard, Duan Zhangshi was afraid that she would say something unpleasant. She was now taking the second sister Wu as a naive child, fearing that she would be embarrassed and hurt herself, so she hurriedly pulled her into the house.
Wei Yuzhen watched Duan Zhangshi pull the second sister into the room and press on the chair, and quickly took the tea from the girl with his own hands, and held it to the second sister in front of Duan Zhangshi. She smiled and said, "My brother and sister have worked hard all the way. Tea." Seeing the second sister took it, she immediately raised her eyes to look at Duan Zhangshi, thinking that this new daughter-in-law "women" would not give up tea to Duan Zhangshi, she would definitely be scolded!
Seeing that the second sister was obediently holding the tea, Duan Zhangshi couldn't speak, he was relieved to sit in the upper seat, followed her mother-in-law to pour a cup of tea and held it, Duan Zhangshi took a look at Wei Yuzhen. What a dead girl! It is indeed the person given by the old lady! I don't even know how to pour a cup of tea to her mother-in-law!
Wei Yuzhen made Duan Zhang's stare flustered, seeing the second sister still sitting by the side drinking tea, but she, the sister-in-law, is still standing! Suddenly got up, quietly glanced over, and saw that Duan Zhangshi didn't scold her but stared at herself. He secretly blamed Duan Zhangshi for eccentricity and stood aggrievedly in front of Duan Zhangshi and pretended to be a filial daughter-in-law "women".
Duan Zhang's tea slowly said: "The old lady wants to see the second sister, I will take her to stay for a day or two, and you don't have to come and wait every day." After speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at Wei Yuzhen with a smile.
Wei Yuzhen heard the meaning of Duan Zhang’s words, and quickly said: "Waiting for the mother is what the daughter-in-law "women" should do. The daughter-in-law "women" is here thinking about father and mother every day, hoping for the safety and health of the two elders. Now the mother is here. Now, the daughter-in-law "women" should naturally get close to the mother."
Duan Zhang nodded in satisfaction, raised his chin again, pointed at Aunt Yang's "milk" and "milk" standing outside the door and the mother-in-law holding the child and said, "This is Haofang's concubine and child. We will be together this time. Bring it to the old lady to see. You also know that the old lady has been thinking about Haofang's children. Go and make arrangements to see where they live, and come back when they are arranged. When everything is cleaned up, let's go together to greet the old lady."
Wei Yuzhen's face stiffened, and she didn't dare to say anything, so she squatted for a while and went out.
The second sister didn't understand why she asked her to arrange Duan Haofang's concubine, why is her face so ugly
Seeing her unabashedly puzzled, Duan Zhang sighed and beckoned her to come over.
The second sister was so happy to pretend to be a child in front of Duan Zhangshi, and immediately put down the tea cup and jumped over.
Duan Zhangshi pulled her down and adjusted her clothes and began to talk. It turned out that the yard of the old man's family in the old house was only half of the yard.
At that time, I moved to a new house from the backstreet of the vegetable market. This house was originally built for a wealthy businessman or a high official for the outer house. It was not intended to be used by a family of several people, so except for the outer house, the Dongzheng house was In addition to the owner's living room, there are other play rooms such as piano room, study room, and so on. So Dongzheng House accounts for more than half of the entire house. After moving in, it will naturally be occupied by the old lady.
The eldest son is the eldest son, so naturally the living is pretty good. Several houses are surrounded by walls and the yard is still big. Besides, the eldest master followed the old man Duan to the south to do business, then the eldest wife and his son Duan Haoshouyi were in the yard. Home.
The size of the yard of the second master was originally the same as here, but this side is next to the stove and the lower room, and the direction is not very good. When the wind blows, it will drift into the house here. Later, I don’t know what method the second master used to persuade the old lady. When the barrier wall separated the yard, he said that he would follow the Feng Shui, and separated half of the house here into the second master’s yard.
Therefore, the yard where the second sister is staying now has only three houses, two big houses, and a narrow aisle-like house as the lower house.
Before Mr. Duan and Mr. Duan Zhang moved out, they lived in one room with two inside. Mr. Duan's concubine lived in the outside room, and the couple slept in the inside room. The other is Duan Haoping and Duan Haofang, the hut is for the girl-in-law to live in.
When Master Duan and Duan Zhangshi moved away, the old lady said that she was reluctant to bear Duan Haoping, so she left him, and Duan Zhangshi had to take his youngest son Duan Haofang away. Later Duan Hao-ping got married, and the two couples lived in the house where the two brothers lived. As for the other big house, it was still reserved for Duan and Duan Zhang. After all, it was the house of the elders, and they didn't dare to live in it.
Duan Haoping's concubine and their girl-in-law lived in the small house, and four people were crowded in the small aisle-like small house. And their husband and wife led their son to sleep together.
Before Duan Zhang's brought Auntie Yang's "milk" and "milk", it was natural that she brought her son's concubine to act as a girl, and the two slept in and out of the house. But this time she brought her second sister. Although she wanted to let Aunt Xiao Yang live outside with "milk" and "milk", Duan Zhangshi was disgusted with the fact that she was ruining people, and hated the child's noise at night, so let Wei Yuzhen Go to the arrangement and make it clear that Aunt Xiao Yang will not live in this room at night.
This is troublesome.
Wei Yuzhen knew that Aunt Yang's "milk" and "milk" were relatives of the old lady. This time she gave birth to her son. She didn't dare to let her go to the next room and squeeze with the four girls. Duan Zhang made it clear that she would not be allowed to enter the big house. As for their own house, Duan Haoping has to come back to live, should he live in the same house with his brother's concubine? Even the reputation of Inner and Outer House is not good.
Wei Yuzhen circled the room twice, embarrassed for a long time. She knew that this was Duan Zhangshi deliberately tossing her, but she couldn't help it. She couldn't handle the things her mother-in-law confessed, and Duan Haoping didn't stand by her side. She walked a thin layer on the embarrassing ground in the house. She gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, and called the girl who combed the head of the "women" and said: "Go and tell your master, let him make peace wherever he wants tonight. There is a visitor at home, I can’t live there!"
The young girl combing the head of the "women" cautiously said: "Then...Would you like to give me some money? He has a drink or something..."
Wei Yuzhen glared at her fiercely, staring that the girl bowed her head before turning back to the house and opening the box and counting half of the money. She took a piece of clothes and wrapped it in her arms and screamed: "You are so distressed. He! Send it away! Let him remember your love!"
The girl made her slap her face and didn't dare to hide. Seeing that she had no other orders, she held something and bowed her head.
Wei Yuzhen sat down in the room twice, beating her leg with hatred. Does she still know Duan Haoping? If he doesn't come back tonight, then he will definitely go to those restaurants and colleges outside to find that kind of dirty woman! I remembered that girl who still remembered to give him money, and snorted fiercely: "Unconscionable hooves! I don't know who your master is when I go to bed!" He sighed again, who was originally his dowry girl, and entered the door. Later, she was given to Duan Haoping as a general house, who knew she also got the fate of Duan Haoping, and she became a concubine in less than two years. Fortunately, she gave birth to a son. This girl is still sensible and has not given birth to a fart, otherwise she would have to sell her!
Wei Yuzhen was angry for a while and calmed down. Ask the woman to move all the things of Aunt Yang's "milk", "milk" and children to this room. They can barely be regarded as concubines. The man who is not her sister-in-law will take her to live with the child. There will be no problem.
When people entered the house, the girl-in-law fetched water for them to wash their faces, and then went to look at the child that the mother-in-law was holding. Wei Yuzhen thought triumphantly, it's useless for Second Sister Wu to be proud. The concubine gave birth to her son first. Seeing that the old lady meant to hold this woman surnamed Yang, she was afraid that there would be a good show during dinner.
Wei Yuzhen hummed a little song happily and went into the house to change clothes, and when he went to eat with the old lady, he couldn't wear it so casually. Waiting for the girl to open her clothes box and her jewelry box again, Wei Yuzhen turned around but couldn't find the clothes jewelry that could crush the second sister. It's just that the two golden finger-sized Shan Zhuchai on the second sister's head can't match her, let alone the clothes on her body. Wei Yuzhen felt that the clothes were familiar, but they looked like the southern style worn by the second wife.
Tired and sweaty and unable to find a good dress, Wei Yuzhen threw down the things in her hand in despair, and sat down on the chair, not thinking about going to dinner.
It was only when Mrs. Duan got up to take a nap that Duan Zhangshi had come to the old house with her new daughter-in-law "wife" and her new grandson. The woman next to her gargles her mouth with tea, she spit into the basin and said, "From your point of view, how about that Wu family?"
The woman next to her immediately replied, "I can't see clearly from a distance, but I heard it's too late."
The old lady gave her a white look, "Who told you to say this?" She was more concerned about whether this Wu family's great-grandson "wife" was really so rich. I heard that it was a girl from the big landlord's house, but I don't know if it is true or not. The old lady didn't believe that the third daughter-in-law "wife", who had never been of any use in her eyes, could find such a good relationship. Although she had asked the subordinates of the old house to go to Wujiatun to inquire about it, what she said back may not be true. The old lady knows that some people would rather have a swollen face than a fat man. Really rich or fake rich. Seeing that the display at the time of marriage does not count, they only know when they really get married. She will take a good look at this'rich' grandson and daughter-in-law'wife' in a while.
Duan Zhangshi led the second sister Wu in the house to prepare for going to the old lady for a while. After the clothes box was brought in, the second sister asked Lanhua to find a piece of semi-old clothes, and took out a pair of silver jewelry to change. When Duan Zhang saw frowning and asked, "Well, what are you going to change?"
The second sister Wu looked at the angry Duan Zhangshi timidly, and whispered: "I think the sister-in-law is wearing..." I won't talk about the rest.
Duan Zhangshi said in an angry way: "What are you comparing to her? Is it possible that she eats one meal a day, and we only eat one meal a day? Who's going to starve to death!" He walked over and refused to let Lanhua give it to the second sister. Changing clothes, pulling her to stand up and look up and down carefully, and said with satisfaction: "I think you are fine like this! No need to change."
Duan Zhangshi was expecting the second sister to fight for her, wishing to let everyone in the old house take a look. The daughter-in-law she found for her son was much better than the old lady!
She took the second sister and turned around twice, frowning and said: "You are too veggie, what about the hairpin you brought? Wear two more. The first time you see the old lady today, you can't be rude."
Wei Yuzhen had only one silver hairpin on her head, and the second sister had two golden hairpins on her head. This is no longer appropriate. Seeing that Duan Zhangshi wanted to make her wear more, Second Sister Wu quickly shook her arm and said coquettishly: "Mother, mother! I don't want to wear it! That thing is heavy and heavy! It's uncomfortable to wear!"
When Duan Zhang heard her say this, he was so angry that he focused on her forehead and said, "I really have been born in a blessing, I don't know the blessing! Someone wants to wear it yet!!"
The second sister chuckled and turned and ran away, taking advantage of Duan Zhangshi's change of clothes and carelessly, she took off the gold necklace from her neck and only a pair of collars were left. The ear clams were changed to small ones, and the bracelets were changed to thin ones. Yes, I was about to put on my old clothes. Duan Zhangshi came out from behind the screen. Seeing that she was so angry about hitting, the second sister laughed and hid again. Outside Wei Yuzhen said through the curtain, "Mother, let's go to the old lady." ."
Duan Zhangshi agreed, pulling her second sister and confessing to her for a while, saying less and doing more, "Better shut up! Don't say anything!" Seeing that she was missing most of the jewelry, she was so angry on her back. After a few beats, the second sister ran away slippery. She lifted the curtain and jumped to the outhouse, almost hitting Wei Yuzhen who was standing outside.
Wei Yuzhen specially changed her best clothes and wore a few more jewelry. She thought that even if she was not better than her second sister, she would not look shabby at least. Who knew that the second sister laughed like this and bumped out, and she threw her bright red clothes. She was so angry for several streets. Seeing that she was so unruly, she couldn’t help but put on the elder sister-in-law to teach her a lesson: "I'll ask you to say something, this is not your own little home! What about the old lady! What do you look like as a master yelling "chaos" and running around! Even if the girl sees it, she will laugh at you! It's okay to lose the face of the whole family, don't say it, you have to do it Second brother, think about it!"
The second sister Wu almost ran into her and was about to apologize with a smile, but she didn't watch out for a long series of scolding, and she was stunned for a while.
Duan Zhangshi just raised the curtain and came out. Hearing Wei Yuzhen's insistence on the old lady, he was annoyed: "She is not good, and me! When will it be your turn to teach! Are you okay without making any mistakes?"
The second sister hid quietly behind Duan Zhang's, pulling her sleeves timidly and said to Wei Yuzhen: "Sister-in-law, don't be angry." Then to Duan Zhangshi, "sister-in-law is also for my good. She is there every day. The old lady waits there, and naturally knows the old lady's rules."
This sentence seemed to add fuel to the fire, and Duan Zhang looked at Wei Yuzhen with a sneer: "Of course she is filial, and she waits in front of the old lady every day! Where is my mother in your eyes?"
Wei Yuzhen never expected to see the silly second sister Wu put on the bricks so well, so quietly, she buttoned her such a big hat. Seeing that Duan Zhang's was really annoyed, she knew very well that Duan Zhang's always looked down on her daughter-in-law, "women". She had long been keen on Duan Haoping's refusal to go home. It's that she is not good at being a daughter-in-law. Seeing that the second sister Wu had hooked up Duan Zhang's old hatred, she hated herself for not mentioning the old lady just now, while scolding her in her stomach for looking for trouble.
The three masters in a room just stood and stared at each other like this, and all the girls outside the room stretched their heads to look. Seeing that Duan Zhangshi did not let her go easily, Wei Yuzhen quickly knelt down and said, "Daughter-in-law's "women" definitely don't have this heart...!" Without finishing a sentence, the second sister stepped forward to help her. She was saying: "Sister-in-law, get up! Don't you look like a mother if you kneel like this? Mother didn't say anything about you!"
The fire in Duan Zhang's heart was almost gone when he saw Wei Yuzhen kneeling down. After listening to Sister Wu's words, the fire jumped three feet high! From the left and right, there are all the girl-in-laws. This is the old lady’s yard. The front and back are the old ladies’ people. She just came to Wei Yuzhen today and embarrassed her like that. She knelt down in front of so many girls and women. This mother-in-law doesn't give her daughter-in-law a face, is she mean? Besides, the second sister is right, she didn't say anything nasty? Why is she kneeling? Thinking of this, Duan Zhangshi would shoot a knife in Wei Yuzhen's eyes.
Wei Yuzhen was silly when she heard what the second sister said. She couldn't speak for a while, and she didn't know where the words that were full of her stomach were forgotten.
The second elder sister just gave her a fake hand, did not force her. Seeing that she was staying, she didn’t get up, so she stopped turning back to Duan Zhangshi and said in a panic: "Sister-in-law refused to get up..."
Duan Zhang's stomped: "Do you want my old lady to help you personally! I can't get up yet! It's not a joke?"
Wei Yuzhen shocked Duan Zhangshi and hurriedly stood up.
Duan Zhangshi hummed heavily and took the second sister to walk out first, but did not call Wei Yuzhen. It was Wei Yuzhen's girl who came over and helped her, and she followed.
All the way to the old lady’s yard, the second sister was tightly beside Duan Zhang's. After a while, she whispered pitifully into Duan Zhang's ear and said, "Sister-in-law is staring at me."
Duan Zhangshi looked back, Wei Yuzhen was hurriedly putting his eyes aside, becoming more angry, and dragging her second sister's feet to walk forward like flying, and throwing Wei Yuzhen away.
Wei Yuzhen has been thinking about the two faces of the second sister, is she really stupid or pretending to be stupid? The eyes kept squinting at the second sister's back, looking at a little girl who hadn't opened up yet, her behavior was vulgar and she didn't know the etiquette, but what happened just now? Just happened to be caught by Duan Zhangshi, and quickly lowered her head, but he still heard Duan Zhangshi's cold snort and threw her farther. Wei Yuzhen scolded the dead old woman secretly, and quickly followed.
Walking to the gate of the old lady's yard, Wei Yuzhen pushed up to grab Duan Zhang's arm and whispered, "Mother, all mistakes are Yuzhen's fault. I only ask my mother to give Yuzhen some face in front of the old lady."
Duan Zhang's family also knows the importance. She no longer likes Wei Yuzhen's eldest daughter-in-law "women". She was also married to Duan Haoping by the old lady. She didn't even look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha. Since Wei Yuzhen bowed her head first, she was also willing to walk up the stairs Come down. So Wei Yuzhen slowed down to keep up.
The second sister just bowed her head and walked obediently without raising her head.
The little girl outside the courtyard saw Duan Zhang's arrival, and immediately rushed into the courtyard to report. After a while, a woman came out of the house and walked towards them. Second sister Wu felt Duan Zhang's nervousness like seeing a natural enemy.
The mother-in-law came over and saw a hastily, and Duan Zhang immediately went up to help her not to let her down. She has suffered a lot from the old lady's side.
The mother-in-law smiled, looking at her second sister, she was very presumptuous.
Second sister Wu just lowered her head, and Lanhua next to her stepped forward to support her, and smiled at the woman: "It turns out to be Mama Jiang. How good is Mama Jiang?"
The woman stared at Lanhua for a second time, recognized it carefully, and said, "Isn't this Rulan from Lao Xie's house? I heard that you followed Hao Fang's second young master, why is this..." She covered her mouth and smiled. The eyes glanced straight at the head of the "woman" combed by orchids.
Lanhua is not a disadvantage, and smiled: "Isn't it me? Mother Jiang hasn't seen each other for several years. Why are there fewer folds on this face? Come and see!" Going forward and twisting mother Jiang's face, that woman Zi was almost touched by her, leaning back and cursing, "Little hoof kills!"
Lanhua laughed and went to help the old lady, and kept saying that I was looking at my mother! Joking with mom! I also said that this was the first time I went home after I got married, and seeing my mother was like seeing my maiden family!
