Eightieth Bowl of Soup (4)
After Qing Huan's parents accepted the bride price, they no longer regarded her as their own family. After Guan Da's death, she wanted to go home, but her parents refused to take her. It is impossible to say that she is not sad, her parents have loved her younger brother more than her since she was a child, Qing Huan is very clear about this, even if she is a little sad in her heart, she has gotten used to it after so many years.
Every household around here, which one is not like this, boys are treasures, girls are worthless at all, if she hadn't given birth to a bit of a good color, she might have been a child bride for others, how could she get Guan Da Fall in love with her.
Therefore, the arrival of her parents did not make Qing Huan feel very happy. She froze for a moment when she heard the old man's voice, and wiped her hands on the apron to look outside, and found that it was not only her parents, but also her younger brother Dabao.
Her name was given by a wandering doctor who passed by at the beginning, and she spent three Wen for it. This matter has always caused her parents to worry about it. Later, when they had a younger brother, they named them Dabao simply and neatly. The younger brother is really their favorite. He doesn't do any work at home, and he can use her as an older sister to be used immediately. Qing Huan couldn't tell how many times she was tricked out by Dabao, and it turned out that there were villagers who wanted to take advantage of her outside. Sometimes Dabao could sell her with just a piece of candy and a melon.
After she figured it out, she felt that it would be fine not to go home. At least in the Guan family, she is very free by herself. No matter how bad the security is, she doesn't have to worry about being sold when she is at home.
"Why are you here?" Usually, there is no benefit and you don't come to the door. A few days ago, you just came here to capture two chickens and dozens of eggs. Why are you here today
Qing Huan's parents stretched their heads to look inside, and asked cautiously, "Is Guan Er at home?"
"He went hunting in the mountains and is not here."
As soon as the words fell, Qing Huan's father breathed a sigh of relief, his nervous look disappeared, and he said to Qing Huan's mother relaxedly: "Look, I said, there is nothing to be afraid of. Strictly speaking, Guan Er has to take care of that kid I'll call him Uncle Er, can I be afraid of him?"
Qing Huanniang gave him a blank look, and she didn't talk nonsense at all: "Well, we have something to tell you today, so let's go into the room and talk about it."
Qing Huan was dragged into the house by her, Dabao rummaged around like when he came here before, he would taste something delicious when he saw it, and if there was something good that caught his eye, he would just put it in his pocket. On the bedside was a set of new clothes that Qing Huan made for Guan Er, he put them on without even looking at them, but unfortunately they didn't fit, even so, he still wanted to take them away. Qing Huan frowned, and was about to speak when her mother held her hand. She was taken aback, Mother had never talked to her so intimately before, "... Mother, what are you doing here today?"
"Girl, mother asked you, did you really sleep with Guan Er?"
Qing Huan's face turned red immediately, Qing Huan's mother saw that there was something she didn't understand, she slapped her thigh immediately, Qing Huan's father also sighed, and then Qing Huan's mother scolded: "You are useless!" I didn’t believe it when people in the village talked about it, but you got married with your brother-in-law right after your husband died, how shameless are you?!”
Qing Huan bit her lips in embarrassment, and Qing Huan's mother poked her forehead desperately, "Marrying a dead ghost is unlucky enough, don't you know?" Do you know what kind of person that Guan Er is? He was not a good person since he was a child, and everyone in the world knows that he is full of bad water. Do you want to make me and your father angry with him?!"
Qing Huan heard her talking more and more too much, and couldn't help but retort: "Didn't Mother say that once you get married, you are not a member of your family, and told me not to go back, and don't take myself seriously? Then now you are Did you come to me because you cared about me? Or because you cared about my reputation?" She didn't believe it at all.
When Qing Huan's father heard her talking to him so boldly, he immediately raised his hand: "You little hoof, your mother will teach you a lesson, you have a hundred sentences waiting!"
But the slap failed, because Guan Er came back at some point and just grabbed his hand. Guan Er's strength was enormous, Qing Huan's father was no match for him, his face turned pale from the pain, and all the vigor he had when he taught Qing Huan a lesson was gone.
Seeing Guan Er coming back, Qing Huan's tears couldn't stop falling, Guan Er was very angry. He held the little sister-in-law in his palm to coax, why would others dare to treat him like this? Guan Er is not a person who cares about etiquette. He doesn't smile at each other just because the other party is the father and mother of his beloved sister-in-law. He is still extremely fierce: "What do you want to do today? Do you want to drink the wedding wine with my sister-in-law?"
The old couple were going to be terrified, and when they closed their eyes, they saw the clothes that Dabao was holding in his arms. That looked familiar, wasn't it just what he begged his sister-in-law to make for him a few days ago? Well, this family, who came to see my sister-in-law, clearly came to bully her. Guan Er let go of the old man, and punched the wooden table: "Say! What are you doing here today!"
Qing Huan's father was so frightened that his legs trembled and he fell to the ground. Dabao was even more timid and cried out of fright. Only Qing Huan's mother could hold on, and her face was pale. Guan Er's fists were creaking, full of deterrent force. He was just trying to scare the couple, it was unlikely that he would really beat them up. But Guan Er was also really surprised that the little sister-in-law was so cute and lovable, and her family was nothing like her.
Guan Er is so vicious, no matter how stupid Qing Huan's parents are, they know what to say and what not to say. If they really tell the purpose of coming today, it would be strange if Guan Er didn't beat them to death! But Dabao is timid. Although he is good at bullying his sister at home, he is more cowardly than anyone else when facing outsiders. He was only thirteen years old this year, and he was so frightened that he fell to the ground, Guan Er pressed him to tell the truth: "We told my sister that my husband's family is here today!"
When Guan Er heard this, he immediately laughed. To be honest, although his furious appearance was terrifying, it was not impossible to appease him. Only when he was clearly very angry in his heart but had a smile on his face, was it really scary. Qing Huan didn't expect that her parents came here for this purpose: "You want me to remarry?"
Maybe it was because Qing Huan's tone was full of disbelief, but Qing Huan's mother became more confident: "Your father and I are doing it for your own good! Could it be that you want to guard this dilapidated place for the rest of your life and be a widow for Guan Da? You are young Why don't you marry again? It's better than living alone, how can you do without a man?"
Qing Huan knew her parents too well, they didn't consider her at all when they said this. "Did you take other people's money again?"
A guilty look flashed across the faces of the old couple, and Qing Huan lost all strength: "How many times are you going to sell me..." Fortunately, the first time was sold to Xiucai Guan Da, although Guan Da died that night , but she said a few words to him, she is a very gentle person. At that time, she really thought that she could live a good life. Even if Guan Da died later, she wanted to go home but they refused, she never blamed her parents in her heart. But now... "You came to ask me if I slept with Guan Er. You didn't consider my reputation at all. You were trying to estimate how much I could sell! How could you do this to me!?"
Her last sentence was crying, her parents have been partial since she was a child, she never said anything; she married her off to save money for her younger brother to marry a wife, she didn't say anything; but now, she feels that she can get through with the second After a lifetime, they came to the door under the guise of caring, with the purpose of marrying her off again!
No, it should not be said to marry, but to sell.
Sell it again.
Therefore, it is very important whether she has slept with Guan Da, if she has slept, it is worthless.
Qing Huan gritted her teeth and said, "So what if I slept with Guan Er? Can you control me? It doesn't matter if he marries me or not? I just want to sleep with him. If you really don't like it, go to the yamen Sue me! Let everyone know that you sold your daughter once for money and want to sell it a second time!"
Guan Er pulled her into his arms, covered her eyes with one hand, still had a smile on his face, but that smile made people shudder. He is really not a good-tempered person, especially when facing people like Qinghuan's parents. "I'll give you back how much money you take. If I'm alive, no one will take her away. Do you hear me?"
He still restrained himself, otherwise Qing Huan's father's head would have been separated from his body at this moment.
Qing Huan's father got up and wanted to run, but Qing Huan's mother was still unwilling. She tugged at Qing Huan anxiously and said, "Girl, can you just let your parents look down on you? We took Huang Yuanwai's money, and they said that if they couldn't send you, they would pay them double! Your father has worked so hard for so many years, and finally saved your brother's daughter-in-law, do you have the heart to see them go for nothing?!"
Huang Yuanwai... Qing Huan couldn't believe it: "You mean that Huang Yuanwai who is over fifty years old and has no son, and married dozens of concubines?! Are you going to sell me to him?!" That Huang Yuanwai is Who, I heard that none of the women in his hands are good. He has dozens of concubines in name, but in fact there are only a few more, many of them are dead! How did you die? It's not that Huang Yuanwai has a tyrannical personality! God just punished him in his fifties without even having a child, but her parents wanted to sell her to such a person, just for a little money!
Guan Er reached out to snatch the clothes back, then kicked Dabao on the ass, and kicked him out of the door, his head was covered in blood, his eyes were dark, "If you don't leave, I will destroy your son."
He knew what the couple's weakness was. They could be shameless for money and their son, so threatening to abolish Dabao was the most useful. Sure enough, the couple hurriedly got up and ran outside to support Dabao, not daring to scream in front of Guan Er, and left in disgrace.
