Li Lanlan's eyes were still a little swollen, she just took the money subconsciously, and she was stunned after hearing what the husband said.
Her father gave it
Her first reaction was that it was impossible. Li Lanlan knew better than anyone who Li's father was. From childhood to adulthood, this person would only take money from the family. When did she ever give her a penny, even if she was married, she would Didn't get a penny.
Seeing Li Lanlan's expression, Lin Shiheng gave a small smile and said warmly, "Father-in-law saw that our family was poor and father was in poor health, so he kept giving me money, saying that he would let us live a good life."
If he said that Father Li was distressed for his daughter's money, Li Lanlan would guarantee that he would not believe it, but if he said that Father Li had seen the poor elders of the Lin family and were in poor health, she would have believed it 80% of the time.
Li's father's problem has always caused the family to suffer from open and secret losses. At the beginning, Li Lanlan was given away by her father because of the food at home. Thinking of getting married, it was rare to feel his sympathy.
After thinking about Li's father's temperament, Li Lanlan completely believed it when she took the money. She handed the money to Lin Shiheng again, because she had cried before, and her voice was still slightly hoarse, "Xianggong, take it."
"This is the money my father-in-law gave. How can I keep it? You can take it."
The scholar smiled and did not accept the money.
Li Lanlan respected him, and since he said so, he no longer pushed the money over.
This amount of money is not much. After all, Father Li is busy doing good deeds every day, so there is no way he can save money, but Li Lanlan is already satisfied.
Which child does not expect his parents to treat him well, even if Father Li did this because of his overflowing sympathy, Li Lanlan still wanted to burn incense and worship Buddha to thank God.
She didn't ask her father to treat her as well as others, she just asked him to stop thinking about "letting his son-in-law lend him money to do good things" because of the bad situation of the Lin family.
Thinking, Li Lanlan straightened her hair: "Is my father still outside?"
"I'm gone, just now I said I wanted to stay for the meal, but my father-in-law said he wouldn't stay to eat, so he hurriedly left."
Li Lanlan doesn't think it's strange. Her father is like this. Even if he helps other people's big things outside, he is very conscious of not bothering them. Even if he just gave the other party most of his own food, his stomach growled with hunger. , that is also unwilling to eat at the other party's house, and have to go home hungry and endure to eat.
As a thoughtful person, it must be grateful, but as his family, it was a disaster.
Because of Li's father's character, Li Lanlan has always been firm in her thinking and cognition since she was a child. She feels that you should come and go between people. If you are good to me, I will be good to you. Like his own father, when people have no relationship with him and no reason, and they don't even ask him for help, he will just shy away. Those who give up their own wife and daughter and don't give up their family business to help are called stupid.
Knowing that Father Li was gone, the heavy stone that was pressing on Li Lanlan's heart seemed to be taken down. She breathed a sigh of relief. After putting the money away, she rubbed her eyes again and continued to work outside.
Here she is doing things with ease, but the second room in the big room is looking forward to it early in front of her door.
They came out when they heard someone knocking on the door before, and when they saw Li Lanlan driving away her father, they were afraid that the world would not be in chaos, and no one went up to stop them.
When the family was not separated, the third brother loved face. If he saw his daughter-in-law beat his father-in-law, he would not be angry.
The two thought beautifully, but it was a pity that Lin Shiheng came out. There was no anger on that white jade-like face, and it could even be said that he calmly invited Father Li to the house.
The daughter-in-law of the second room wanted to eavesdrop on what the husband-in-law had to say, but she was afraid of being discovered, so she could only stand with her neck stretched out to watch.
"Sister-in-law, what do you think Father Li Lanlan is here for?"
"Li Lanlan is so angry, maybe I really got it right and borrowed money."
"Is he really so shameless?"
Dafang's daughter-in-law affirmed: "I have said it long ago, he is like this, and everyone in the village knows it. He is also a mother. He doesn't dislike anything dirty and stinky. Such a family would dare to marry."
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little smug in her heart. Her parents' conditions were not very good, but her father was not a fool like Li's father. Even if she didn't subsidize her these years, she still needed to subsidize her. She has no face at her husband's house.
The second daughter-in-law thinks about the same thing as her. In fact, they don't pay much attention to their parents' family. After all, they are women, so they must not be favored by the male family members. They didn't bring anything when they got married. The dowry was also taken by her parents and not given to them.
But they don't think it's anything, isn't it like this in the village? Those who love their daughters and buy dowries for their daughters are outliers, so although they can’t speak much in their parents’ home, both of them have a red heart towards their parents’ home. During the festivals, or when their hands are loose, they will Always want to take something back.
For this reason, Mother Lin also said to them several times that she disliked them just thinking about her parents' family, and took the things from her husband's family to make up for it.
Well now, there is a third younger brother and sister, with such a father, see how the mother-in-law is biased towards the third room.
The more they thought about it, the more excited they became. It was obvious that it was time to cook, but no one moved.
As a result, after a while, the curtain over there was lifted, Lin Shiheng came out, and politely escorted Father Li out the door.
The two were a little confused for a while.
Is this borrowing money, or not borrowing money? Why is the third brother still smiling
They desperately wanted to know what happened, but they couldn't ask their uncle, so they could only watch Lin Shiheng, who had finished sending people off, turn around and go back to the house.
"Sister-in-law, do you think the third brother lent money to the Li family?"
Dafang's daughter-in-law still wants to know.
After the meeting, Li Lanlan came out. Although she wiped her eyes and patted her, she was born white and her eyes were red and swollen. You could tell at a glance that Sister Li, who couldn't understand the situation, immediately settled down.
"It must have been borrowed. You can see that the three younger siblings are crying."
The second daughter-in-law also followed to see Li Lanlan, and seeing that her eyes were swollen because of her fairness, she looked better than she looked at herself.
"I'm not sure what to do when my mother comes back and finds out about this."
When the two said this, they looked at each other, and they could clearly see the excitement in each other's eyes.
At first, they were only brought home by their mother-in-law and talked about it for a long time. Now that the third sibling's father came to borrow money the day after she got married, the mother-in-law might not be able to bear her.
The third house is unlucky, the mother-in-law is angry, and they are happy.
Happy and happy, the second daughter-in-law suddenly smiled.
"I forgot to cook!"
Dafang's daughter-in-law's smile also stiffened: "Me too."
Both of them were lazy, and it was tiring to go to the field. Neither of them went to the field. They asked their sons and daughters-in-law to go, and they just cleaned up at home and then cooked.
As a result, I was watching the fun today, but I forgot to cook.
They were in a hurry, but unfortunately the delay was too long before, and they still couldn't catch up.
When Mrs. Lin came back, she saw that the second room in the big room was busy cooking, and after a tired day in the field, the elder Lin, who just wanted to eat a hot meal quickly, didn't look very good-looking, and he didn't care about the younger generation. Now, with a stinky face, he scolded his mother-in-law for not working at home.
Since the separation, she has become cold-hearted about these two rooms, looked at them coldly, and stopped paying attention to them.
Here, Li Lanlan made the meal early and was busy bringing it to the table, because there was a patient at home and a scholar who was consuming energy. The chickens raised by Mother Lin never bought eggs when they laid eggs. Soup to eat.
Li Lanlan has suffered too much and has long been used to being diligent. After she neatly brought out the dishes in the kitchen and cleaned them up, she took two bowls of porridge and vegetables, and said gently, "Mother, do you want me to feed my father? "
When Mother Lin came home, she didn't have to do anything but just wait for the meal. The house was cleaned up everywhere. It wasn't like she was busy in the field all day and had to come back, cook and clean up the house. Let's compare The two rooms next door were in a hurry, and I was instantly satisfied.
In the past, she might have been satisfied, but she wouldn't be as satisfied as she is now. After all, the newly-daughter-in-law in the village, unless it was too weird, would be like Li Lanlan.
But after experiencing two daughters-in-law who slapped their noses on their faces, and a home that was left untidy because her husband was in bed and her son was busy reading In the courtyard, Mother Lin's favorability for the third daughter-in-law was almost raised to 150%.
This is how to be a daughter-in-law, look at the two goods next door, they can't even cook a meal.
Daughter-in-law is good, mother-in-law doesn't mind giving anything in return, Mother Lin stood up with a smile, "No, your father and I have always eaten together in the house, I'll just feed him, you and Shiheng are here. Eat out."
"Eh."
Li Lanlan responded crisply, without having to say anything from Mother Lin, she took more vegetables and put them in the bowl.
The more Lin mother looked at her, the more satisfied she became. She was afraid that their son and daughter-in-law would not have enough to eat, so she stopped and wanted to bring a plate into the house, but Li Lanlan had already brought it to the house.
She was also used to this. Before, Father Li was always away from home, and she had to do everything by herself. It was not like the daughter-in-law of someone else's family, and the elders gave orders and actions.
In the eyes of Mother Lin, the third daughter-in-law is called filial piety.
She was even more satisfied immediately, and once again glanced coldly at the second room on the opposite side, who was secretly looking at her, and turned around and entered the house.
Lin Shiheng sat in his place the whole time, chewing and eating slowly.
As the only scholar in the family, he did not work since he was a child. It would be strange if he did.
When Li Lanlan came out, he naturally put vegetables in her bowl and said in a low voice, "Eat more."
Being concerned by her husband, Li Lanlan blushed a little, and gave a low reply with embarrassment, and buried her head to eat.
She just got married, and she was still a little cramped. Even if her mother-in-law was not on the table, she didn't dare to add vegetables. Lin Shiheng ate slowly by himself, while serving her dishes from time to time.
The young couple ate one by one, and they both had a good appearance, which was very pleasing to the eye.
However, the people in the second room were not looking at them. The people in the two rooms who had no food to eat were all attracted by the dishes on the table.
Li Lanlan's cooking skills can't be called good, but it's not bad, and she was instructed by Lin Shiheng. The Taoist family needs to make up for it, so they are willing to put oil and salt. This dish was fine when it was in the kitchen before, until one end reaches the yard Inside, Caixiang floated all the way to the two rooms along the wind.
When the family split before, because no one of the three bedrooms had the money to build a new house, they still lived together, but there was a commotion at the time. In order to show that the three brothers were not one piece, they picked up soil and built a short building. One layer of wall.
It's very short, and people can pass by with just a light step, so even if Lin Shiheng and his little wife are sitting and eating, the other two hungry rooms can still see what's on their table.
Rice porridge that is not thin at all, eggs of Huang Cen Cen...
- Gudong!
Whenever the people in the two rooms looked at it, they swallowed more or less.
The four-year-old grandson of the big room stood on the steps, looked over there eagerly, and shouted at his mother, "Mother, I want to eat eggs too."
"What to eat!!"
Dafang's daughter-in-law was very busy, anxious and dry, and when she heard the humiliating words of the little grandson, she yelled back: "A shallow eyelid, is that something you can eat? Do you think everyone is like someone else? So rich!"
Her original intention was to imply that Mother Lin still hid the money for her beloved third son and did not share it. As a result, the tired and hungry Boss Lin became angry first.
"What are you calling!!! You think I'm useless, don't you think? After working outside for a day without even cooking a meal, who can have such a lazy mother-in-law as you? Don't stay at home tomorrow, let's go. Daughter-in-law cooks, you go down with you!"
Wanting to refer to Sang's scolding of Huai, but the daughter-in-law of the big house who set her on fire: "..."
The second-family daughter-in-law, who was beside him with false concubine affection, just showed her gloating eyes, when she heard her stinking husband say, "What are you looking at! You too! Go down to the ground with a piece of land tomorrow!"
The second daughter-in-law: "… "
Lin Shiheng turned a deaf ear to the farce next door. The population of the third room is not like the other two rooms, and there are only four people in Li Lanlan, so they can eat enough food for their whole family to go to any room next door, that is, Bottom up.
Therefore, Mother Lin can safely take out eggs to replenish her family.
After the meal, Li Lanlan diligently went to wash the dishes, and then went to wash the clothes.
The next door finally had a meal, but the daughter-in-law of the second room couldn't help but look over there.
When she saw Li Lanlan actually heating hot water to wash her clothes, she suddenly showed a look of watching the excitement.
It takes firewood to burn hot water, but it can be washed with cold water, but cold water must be used. These three daughters-in-law are still prodigal, wait and see how the mother-in-law scolds them.
Mother Lin was really stunned when she saw that her third daughter-in-law was washing clothes with hot water, "How do you use hot water?"
Lin Shiheng, who was sitting under the tree reading a book, said lightly, "I let it, but it's not clean in cold water. I'll go to town often in the future, and I can't wear dirty clothes. I'll wash it in hot water in the future."
As he said that, he turned his head and smiled at Mother Lin: "Mother, Lan Lan has entered the door now, and you can also enjoy the happiness. In the future, let her wash the clothes. When the son is good, he will hire someone to give it to us. do the laundry."
The daughter-in-law of the second room who listened to the movement here with her ears pricked up: Listen to him, it's worth it.
And the daughter-in-law should wash the clothes when she enters the door. If she doesn't do it, she is not filial and diligent. She can only wash her own clothes in the confinement period. Because the confinement clothes are dirty, if the mother-in-law washes them, they will definitely be laughed at by the whole village. Why? When the third brother said this, the feeling was completely different from before.
They felt that something was wrong, but Mother Lin was happy. She felt that her son was really filial to her. As soon as the new daughter-in-law entered the door, she couldn't wait to let her help with the burden. Is there enough water? Mother, can you burn some more for you?"
From the time she was a teenager, she used cold water to wash her clothes until now, she used hot water for confinement, and the second-bedroom daughter-in-law of the big house who was disliked by her husband for wasting firewood: "… "
They originally wanted to watch each other lively, but they didn't see the liveliness, but they were so angry that they even lost the "cooking at home" treatment that they had originally had.
But fortunately, when my mother-in-law knows that Li Lanlan's father came to borrow money, she will definitely be angry.
They have this hope in their hearts, and they always pay attention to Sanfang's side in everything they do. As a result, they waited until the evening, and Sanfang was calm and did not move at all.
Should not be ah.
This night, like pancakes, the two of them tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
They were always thinking that Li Lanlan would return home the next day.
When she got married, she was uneasy, and now she is going to go home. If her mother-in-law makes a scene, it will become a joke for the whole village.
The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, but when I wanted to sleep, I couldn't.
When the two of them got up in a trance the next day wearing two big dark circles under their eyes, they saw Lin Muzheng next door holding a basket and handing it to Li Lanlan, smiling kindly: "Lan Lan, it's you coming home today, these things you Take it back to my father-in-law, and tell him that our family is okay, let him not worry about it, how can there be a reason for his daughter to come to his son-in-law's house to give money when he is married."
Having said that, Mother Lin was very happy.
Look, what a good daughter-in-law, not only she is diligent, but also the legendary unreliable father.
Although she is not a person who likes to take advantage of others, there is an in-law who hears that her son-in-law's family is having a hard time, and also takes the initiative to send money, which is better than those who only want to suck the blood of her daughter-in-law's family.
Compared with the two goods next door, this is simply a unique good daughter-in-law!
The two people who went back to the door next door only took something superficially and didn't even take an egg: "..."
Why! !
