When she said this, the mother-in-law wouldn't be upset, and she helped her and said, "Since you have climbed a high branch, I can't say that I have to rely on you in the future!" Mama Jiang thought to herself, this little girl film seems to be I really climbed onto Duan Haofang's bed, if I let her father know, I can't break her leg!
Lanhua nodded and said, "Looking at my mother's auspicious words, it's just that the mouth of my family followed our third master to the south, and I don't know when he will come back. When he comes back, I will show him."
Mrs. Jiang said, "Why didn't you follow the third master?"
Duan Zhang originally watched Lanhua gossiping with the woman, thinking about listening to the old lady what it means to see them here. At this moment, I am in a good mood. Who knows that he heard this sentence, and he couldn't help but glared like his master. Gave the lady a look.
Lanhua pulled the old lady and walked to the second elder sister, and followed her to salute the second elder sister, saying: "Mom is talking nonsense! You must have drunk again! This is our third master's new "milk" and "milk"."
The woman was pulled by Lanhua and stood in front of the second sister. It's not good to be polite, but she always followed the old lady, even in front of the second master, she always walked with her waist straight to the second son of the unfavored master Duan. The daughter-in-law's "wife" salutes, somewhat reluctantly.
The second sister stretched out her hand to help. Duan Zhangshi stretched out her hand faster than her. She pulled the woman up and said: "How can she be a gift from you as a child? Speaking of which, you watched Haofang grow up. , On the contrary, she should give you a salute!" While she said, she winked at the second sister.
The second sister squatted steadily in accordance with Duan Zhang's intention, and saw that Old Lady Jiang accepted her full gift without evading her. The second sister felt like "touching" something in the Duan's old house.
Old lady Jiang smiled triumphantly after receiving the gift from the second sister Wu. Seeing her smile, Duan Zhang hurriedly pulled her into the room and asked her in a low voice: "The old lady knows that we are here, what did you say?"
Mrs. Jiang couldn't see Duan Zhangshi at all. After hearing her words, she rolled her eyes and said, "The old lady just got up, so she just asked a few words."
Duan Zhangshi laughed with him, and pointed to the little Aunt Yang's "milk" and "milk" who followed and said to the child: "The old lady kept thinking about it, so I brought it with me."
Granny Jiang nodded and said, "The old lady has always wanted to see my aunt's "milk" or "milk"."
Duan Zhang's still asked, how many people had already walked down the corridor, the little girl in front of the door raised the curtain, and Mrs. Jiang motioned to Duan Zhang's to stop talking and led everyone in.
Duan Zhangshi took a deep breath and winked Lanhua. Lanhua took the second sister to stand behind Wei Yuzhen, and then dragged Aunt Xiao Yang's "milk" and "milk" with the mother-in-law holding the child behind the second sister. Several people arranged their positions before raising their feet into the house.
Through the curtain of the back room, I heard a woman in the back room pinching her voice and saying softly, "Old lady, the third wife is here to see you with someone!"
Duan Zhangshi stood at the front, his knees soft as if he was about to kneel down. The second sister was shocked.
After a while in the back room, a hoarse voice that seemed to be panting slowly said: "...then let them in."
Someone walked over and raised the curtain, and Duan Zhang's short waist and shoulders were the first to walk in. The warm and humid atmosphere of a room came over, with a sweet and greasy mixed aroma that made the chest tight.
Seven or eight lamps were lit in the room with the windows closed, and the candlelight was dim. The second sister saw a brazier on the ground, but now it's a brazier in this weather
Five or six "women" crowded in front of the couch, and on the couch was a fat "woman" with gray hair sitting crookedly, dressed in gorgeous clothes and jewels on his head. There is also a big incense burner beside the couch.
The room is much hotter than the outside. The second sister was sweaty when she came in for a while, and Wei Yuzhen beside her was also sweaty.
Duan Zhangshi led them to the couch and bowed down and said, "Blessing to the old lady."
The second sister and others followed behind and bowed, and gave the old lady a blessing in unison.
The old "woman" on the couch raised her hand and coughed, "...get up." Pointing to the second sister and said, "Which one is this? It's very strange. Come over and let me have a look."
The old lady Duan married the old lady Duan when she was 16 years old. At that time, the old lady Duan set up a cloth stall in the vegetable market to collect the outdated cloth that was not needed by other cloth shops and sell it to the people in Caishi Street.
After a few years of hardship after I got married, I was squeezed in a dirty and smelly courtyard with the seven or eight households. Every day before dawn, I got up to dig a well and washed the cloth with water. I cleaned it up and let the old man Duan sell it. . The old lady Duan competed with people in the yard for the well. Every day, she dominates the well in the yard and prevents others from using it. She wants her to use enough to let others draw water. She pulls ropes and cloths all over the yard. No one dares to say her. After touching her cloth, she can block people's doorsteps and curse for three days and three nights.
The year she gave birth to her second son, Mrs. Duan actually rented a used cloth shop at the corner of the street. The owner returned to his hometown when he was old. Mrs. Duan had no money to buy the shop, so he rented it out and hired a few. A small worker started a business. After half a year, I went back to the original. After buying the store, I still made money. The old lady felt that her second son was the lucky star of their family, and she loved her every day. When the eldest son was five or six years old, the old lady rushed him to help in the old man's shop, and had dinner and work with a group of small workers.
Mr. Duan’s store business is getting better and better, and he slowly accumulates some money. The old man wanted to make a lot of money. When he was forty years old, he saw that his three sons were all grown up. He didn't need to worry about him at home anymore, so he would take the money to the south to make a fortune.
Although the old lady Duan was fierce outside, she listened to her husband at home. The old lady said that she wanted to go outside, so she let him go, thinking that at most the money would be lost, so long as people could come back.
But the old lady is really capable. After being in the south for less than three years, he made money and opened a shop. The business grew bigger and bigger. The old lady asked people to bring him back several times, but the old lady ignored him. The old lady had no choice but to ask the eldest son to call the old man back. Unexpectedly, the eldest son worked with the old man over there. The old lady was so angry that she killed the daughter-in-law and the child who refused to enlarge her son and went to look for him. The eldest son came home to pick him up a few times but didn't pick him up, and slowly he came back less, but he always remembered to send some money home for a year.
The old lady couldn’t see the eldest son, and even more closely watched the eldest daughter-in-law "wife". The eldest room and grandson is a big man of twenty-five and sixty. The old lady just refused to give him some work, saying that he has children. The second uncle "would worry," he better not go out at home as a child, and it's fine to learn from his second uncle. The angered grandfather's daughter-in-law "women" secretly cursed the old lady to die sooner, and the second master's family, who occupied the store's house and didn't let go, also quickly died.
The second son is the darling of the old lady, and she is also afraid that the second son will not come back with the eldest son when he arrives in the south. Therefore, the family was left with the second master to toss and forbid him to go to the south. In order to appease the second son’s family, she asked the second master’s family to pick out the things that the second master’s family sent back from the south every year, and then the rest would be distributed to the eldest son. If there is a little bit left, apart from giving it to a few old servants, the last thing is to run out to live in the unfilial Duan Zhang family and Duan Master's third room.
The old lady remembered one thing, grabbing the head of each room and not letting go. So no matter how far Lao Tzu son runs, he will return to her in the end. What she regrets most is that she shouldn't let the eldest son go to the old man, otherwise she would not leave the eldest son out.
But she didn’t see her children and grandchildren except for the first-in-law. She grabbed Aunt Xiao Yang’s "milk" and "milk". She just wanted to embarrass the third daughter-in-law "women". As for Duan Haofang's daughter-in-law, "women". She didn't care at all. Sanfang's second son, it doesn't matter to her to marry an ugly stranger.
It’s just that Duan Zhang’s family kept saying that she was a girl from a big landlord’s family, and her family was rich. The old lady thought, how rich is this? Then I wanted to see you.
When the second sister Wu walked in behind Duan Zhangshi, the old lady's dizzy old eyes was the first to look at her. The old lady squinted her eyes and took a closer look, but her eyes had long been unable to see things, but she saw a little girl in a new tuft of red clothes.
"Which one is this? It's pretty good. Come over and I'll take a look." The old lady said.
Sitting with the old lady was her second daughter-in-law "wife", and the eldest daughter-in-law would all sit on a stool on the side. Hearing the old lady's words, the second lady hurriedly took a step forward and pushed the second sister Wu who was following Wei Yuzhen over to the old lady and smiled: "Mother, look! This girl is a blessing at first sight!"
The old lady squinted her eyes and looked carefully, pulling her second sister to sit in front of her, her eyes turning straight on the golden hairpin on her head and the golden collar on her neck. Putting a hand on the second sister’s arm and "touching" the sleeves of the clothes, the old lady Duan has sold the cloth for a lifetime, and the old lady's vision is also good. Only by "touching" you can know what kind of cloth the cloth is. How much silver can be sold outside.
The old lady thought to herself that the golden hairpin on the other end looked like it was mixed with something, and she dangled her eyes, I was afraid it was not worth much. But that pair of gold collars looked like pure gold. Although the face was dark, it looked like it was a few years old, I am afraid it was the girl who had beaten her at home to keep her safe. The hairpin is probably a new one. The clothes on her body are made of good materials, and they cost dozens of dollars per foot. It seems that the Wu family is rich. It's not a lie. It's just that the second daughter is willing to spend a lot of money when she gets married. Her sister should bring better things when she goes out.
When the old lady thought so, the smile on her face softened by three points. Although she is not pleasing to the Duan Zhangshi, she has no grudges with Qian. This girl from the Wu family is rich, of course she likes it. He patted the second sister's hand and said, "Sure enough, he is a blessed child. I like it when I see it!" Turning his face to the woman next to him, "Go and get the blessed bracelet in front of the door. It's for me." The meeting ceremony of the new grand-daughter-in-law "women"."
The mother-in-law’s eyes lit up, her eyes were not right when she looked at the second sister, she squatted for half a blessing, and left. The wise girl next to her took tea to her second sister, while the Duan Zhangs were still standing below. , Not even a seat.
The old lady took the bracelet and put it on the second sister herself. She smiled and said, "I am lonely here, so you can stay here for a few more days to accompany my old lady." Before the second sister could answer the question, the old lady was not too big Madam, push the second sister to the second wife and say, "This is your second aunt, just find her if you have anything to do!"
The eldest lady was sitting there and wanted to come over. When she heard this, she sat back and rolled her eyes.
The second sister stood up and bowed to the second wife. The second wife grabbed the second sister and said, "I see a good girl! Look at this small face!" She stretched out her hand and twisted her cheek lovingly and pushed. Go to the old lady and say, "Mother, look, this face is as tender as a peeled egg!"
The old lady also liked the chubby face of her second sister. She started to "touch" twice and nodded and said: "If you are a country boy who looks strong, her father and mother will also be able to raise her, and she is a good boy."
The second sister just laughed and didn't speak, twisted if she wanted to, or touched if she wanted to "touch".
The old lady took the second sister and asked her what her name was. The second sister smiled and said that the name her father had given was Lingbao. The second wife immediately smiled and said, "Is the water chestnut just a baby? It can be eaten as a meal or as a "medicine". I heard that the southern pond grows everywhere!"
The old lady heard the sound from the south, looked at the second sister and sighed: "The two of you don't know that they are back."
The second wife immediately squeezed her second sister aside and sat down to persuade the old woman: "Big brother and father are both worried about the mother! A few days ago, didn't you just say you want to send some "medicine" back?"
Seeing that she had nothing to do with her, the second sister was going to leave. She was grabbed by the second wife and pushed back to the old lady and said, "Haofang has also passed by. If you don't believe me, ask his wife "women"." "Let" said, "Quickly tell the old lady, has Haofang gone there already?" The second sister immediately followed the second wife's words and said to the old lady: "He left ten days ago, and before he left, he said he wanted me to give it to the old lady. Take a good wife. He will listen to Grandpa and Uncle over there.” While talking and watching the second wife, the second wife nodded quietly to her, and the second sister was relieved. Although I don't know the reason yet, the second wife clearly wants her to show her face in front of the old lady. Even the old lady's attitude is much better than the second sister's first thought.
Seeing that the second sister understood the truth, the second wife didn't talk too much to grab the limelight, but she was a little satisfied with this niece's wife.
The second wife continued to hold up the old lady, coaxing the old lady to laugh again and again, while laughing and coughing, the second wife gave her a slap on her back, and the two looked as good as mothers-in-law. A room was sitting and standing looking at them. The second sister swept around and saw the older lady sitting on the side, bowed slightly and squatted in a salute.
The eldest lady glanced at the second sister and nodded slightly.
The second lady here took the old lady to talk for a long time before she pointed to Duan Zhangshi who was still standing underneath and said, "Look, the third siblings are almost waiting in a hurry!"
Duan Zhang hurriedly laughed and said, "Where is the second sister-in-law!"
The second wife smiled lightly and ignored her. The old lady seemed to have seen Duan Zhangshi with so many people standing there with so many people behind her, frowning and said: "I am willing to come over? I have to wait ten and a half days to see a son now. Yes! Coax your man to take his son to live outside. Whenever I close my eyes, I can't wait for the third child to come and give me a stick of incense!"
Duan Zhang's knelt down with a plop! Every time I saw the old lady, I had to be mentioned up again, but it was just like this that Duan Zhangshi never thought of moving back. Seeing this, the second sister hurriedly returned to Wei Yuzhen and knelt behind Wei Yuzhen, carrying her skirt.
The second lady pulled at the old lady's sleeves and "glanced" at the second sister. The old lady squinted her eyes and sighed: "For the sake of bringing your daughter-in-law's "wife" here today, I won't punish you. . Get up."
