"Tsk tsk, it is said that people are clothes and horses are saddles. This is true. Take a look at my sister. Wearing this satin dress, isn't she much younger than before? Her complexion (san) is also better than before. , I look at it, she looks like a little daughter-in-law in her twenties..."
In the morning, when Shen Ruolan went to the spicy cabbage workshop, she heard Yu Erbai's exaggerated voice in the room as soon as she entered the yard.
Then, there were a few echoing praises from the room, Shen Ruolan opened the door and walked in, and saw several old ladies who made spicy cabbage were talking around the aunt.
At this time, Mrs. Shen was wearing a brocade-tailored padded beanie, with her hair neatly combed in a bun and two large silver hairpins pinned to it. She was sitting on the edge of the Kang with her back straight, imitating The appearance of the wife of a rich family, she smiled reservedly, and she looked out of place, which was very funny.
"Yo, Lanya is here."
When Aunt Shen saw Shen Ruolan coming, she took the initiative to say hello, as if she had forgotten the unhappiness at her house last time.
Shen Ruolan saw the aunt's attire and saw the somewhat smug look on her face, and knew that she was here to show off, so she couldn't help but rolled her eyes in her heart.
No wonder Shen Ruomei always looks superficial and frivolous, so she inherited her mother's genes.
In the past, she looked at the aunt as safe and sound, but now it seems that she has misjudged her. She is so old, and she can't change her vanity. She just came out with money and showed off. I'm afraid others don't know about them. It seems that the family has made a fortune, it really can't hold two taels of sesame oil in a dog's stomach!
Shen Ruolan glanced at Aunt Shen, nodded lightly, as a response to her, and then went straight to the iron stove in the middle of the ground to warm her hands.
She can conclude that the aunt does not have much money in her hands, and the little money on hand is at most enough for her to show off and put on a facade, because she knows Shen Ruomei well, even though Shen Ruomei is married to the richest man in Jizhou, But according to Shen Ruomei's selfish temperament, she is reluctant to give her parents how much money to spend. If she has money, she still has to keep it for herself. How can she spend it for others
The aunt dressed up like this and ran over, she just wanted to covet these old women, make everyone envy her, and satisfy her own vanity. In addition, it was also to be arrogant in front of her and to be angry with her, because she believed Shen Ruomei's words, and always thought that she had found someone to abduct Shen Ruomei away, and hated her all the time in her heart!
Aunt Shen hated Shen Ruolan in her heart, and Shen Ruolan didn't want to see her in her heart. Ever since she was scalded by Shen Ruomei last time, and Aunt Shen behaved like that again, Shen Ruolan no longer regarded her as a relative and an elder, because such a person did not deserve her If it weren't for the face of the uncle, Brother Fu Cun, and Brother Jin Cun, she would have kicked her out a long time ago, and she could still be left to baba on her own territory? ''''''''''''''''
Aunt Shen was very angry when she saw that Shen Ruolan was not stingy with her, she said with a smile, "Lanya, I came back with your uncle this time just to drink your wedding wine, otherwise it would be so cold It’s cold, and Jizhou is hundreds of miles away from our village, so I really don’t want to go back and forth.”
Originally wanted to sell favors and ask Shen Ruolan to say a few words of gratitude to her, so she would put on airs and put on a show. Unexpectedly, Shen Ruolan acted as if she hadn't heard, she took the stove hook and lifted the stove lid, added a few pieces of broken wood inside, then closed the stove lid and continued to warm the fire, completely ignoring her.
Aunt Shen was angry when a woman from another village said in surprise, "Sister Shen, are you going back to Jizhou?"
This woman belongs to the Si family, and she just knew Mrs. Shen. She didn't know much about the old Shen's family. When Yu Erhuai heard someone inquire, before her sister could speak, she rushed to answer, "I don't want to go back. Why, they have a house in Jizhou now, and they are from the city. When will they live in our country where the birds don’t shit! They still live in a big house with two entrances, just like Lan Ya’s house. It's big, it's magnificent!"
"Oh, isn't it? That's really amazing. It's really lucky to be with my sister-in-law. You can make a fortune quietly." The old lady complimented her very much.
When Aunt Shen heard that others envied her, her vanity was greatly satisfied, and she smiled triumphantly, "How can we get rich? It's not the dowry gift given by my uncle when I hired Mei when I was a child. It's just our couple's ability. If you don’t eat or drink for the rest of your life, you can’t afford a second-entry mansion in Jizhou City. You don’t know how expensive the houses in Jizhou City are? It’s scary to say that. The house we live in now costs thousands of dollars. It can only be bought with two silver coins, but the two of us can’t afford it, just the two of us, working hard for a lifetime, is at most enough to build a house like Lanya’s in Kaoshan Tun’er.”
After showing off her own daughter's dowry, she lowered Shen Ruolan's house by the way. Aunt Shen felt very happy. Now that her two sons are not working here under Mr. Shen's second hand, she no longer has to be afraid of this damn girl. Now, you can say whatever you want to say, and you can run on her if you want to run on her.
Shen Ruolan couldn't help laughing secretly when she heard Aunt Shen's words, maybe the richest man really gave their family a house as a dowry gift, but according to Shen Ruomei's temperament, she would not leave the house to her parents, it must be the deed. Holding the title deed by himself, his parents can at most have the right of residence, and absolutely no right of ownership.
Those old women who didn't know the details were stunned when they heard that Shen Ruomei's dowry was a big house in the city: "What? Is it too big for a two-entry house as a dowry? When my daughter got married, my uncle gave me a tael of silver and four big geese, and I returned seven or eight hundred Wen as a dowry. Compared with your Meier’s dowry, our family really can’t survive! "
"How handsome is Meier, is it comparable to a girl like us? So don't compare. They say that people are dead compared to others. If you compare things, you have to throw them away. Since we can't give birth to Meier Such a handsome girl, let's not compare with others."
Aunt Shen was very pleased with this compliment. She touched the hairpin on her head, smiled proudly, and said, "Actually, this house is just one of the betrothal gifts. Besides this house, my uncle also gave me a thousand taels of silver." , a box of head jewellery, and ten bolts of fine colored satin."
"Hey, my mother, so much? Then the two of you can't spend all your flowers in this life? It's thousands of taels of silver, tsk tsk, it's enough to spend several lifetimes." Someone exclaimed.
Aunt Shen smiled, and said in a low-key manner, "It's not enough to spend a few lifetimes, but in this lifetime, I don't have to worry about running out of money."
The reason why she dared to say such big words was not that Shen Ruomei could give her money, but that her two sons were doing well in Jizhou, and their family's life in the future would definitely not be bad.
Shen Ruolan stood by the stove, warming herself by the fire while listening to the aunt's mindless bragging. She felt that her ears would be poisoned if she stayed any longer. She gathered the cloak around her body, turned around and walked out the door.
Seeing Shen Ruolan leaving without saying a word, Aunt Shen thought that she was stimulated by Meier's good marriage, because Meier married the richest man in Jizhou, and she could eat delicious food and drink spicy food all her life. ; and she married just an unknown and down-and-out young man, to put it bluntly, he was just a man from the mountains with a little more money than a countryman.
Seeing that Shen Ruolan was about to leave, Aunt Shen hurriedly called him to stop, with a triumphant smile on her face, she said with a smile, "Lanya, don't rush away? Auntie came back after a long time, so you can talk to her , By the way, the aunt hasn't asked you yet, your son-in-law has also hired you, and what dowry gifts will I give you? Tell the aunt to listen to it, and the aunt is also happy to follow suit. "
Shen Ruolan looked at her smug and self-righteous look, didn't bother to pay attention to her, and said coldly, "I married an ordinary person, and the dowry gifts are all ordinary things, there is nothing to say."
Seeing that Shen Ruolan refused to say anything, Aunt Shen concluded that her betrothal gifts must be some unbearable things, and they couldn't be compared with Meier's. So I became more proud and proud, and with a condescending sense of superiority, I said regretfully, "Really? That's a pity, we are far away. If we were close, my aunt would not call you casually." I'm engaged. Your sister Mei has married into the Li family. Aren't you a relative of the Li family in the future? With the big tree of the Li family covered, do you still worry about a good marriage in the future? Your parents are the same, you You're only fourteen, why are you in a hurry to get married?"
Hearing such shameless words, Shen Ruolan couldn't bear it any longer, and said, "If you have a good marriage, forget it, I don't have such a great fortune to be a concubine for others, and I can be a concubine for others with my temperament." I don't understand, it won't take a few months before I have to be kicked out, and maybe my family will be beaten..."
When Aunt Shen heard this, her old face turned red, and she heard that Lan Ya was talking about Meier as a concubine. By the way, she also said that Meier was kicked out by Lao Ding's house before, and the old man was thrown out by Lao Ding. She was ashamed of the family beating.
She blushed, thought for a while, and said with a sneer, "That's right, this person is self-aware. When I was in Jizhou, I saw you walking close to King Zhan, and thought you were going to be a concubine in King Zhan's mansion." Well, I didn't expect you to figure it out. Knowing that I can't be this concubine, I went back to the village to marry an honest man. In fact, this is pretty good. Although I didn't enter the palace of King Zhan, at least I got a set with King Zhan Wealthy!"
She deliberately revealed the fact that Shen Ruolan was close to King Zhan before, and told everyone that the reason why this dead girl is rich is that she came by the side of men, so as to destroy her reputation, so that people would know her He is a disrespectful and shameless person, and then looks down on her in order to achieve her purpose of discrediting her.
When everyone heard that Shen Ruolan was still involved with King Zhan, they couldn't help being shocked and frightened. In the eyes of the country people, a yamen servant in a town yamen is an unattainable high-ranking official. For the prince, what a big official he is ah? How many eyes are bigger than your own
Shen Ruolan saw that everyone was looking at her in unison, she was not afraid at all, and said to everyone with a smile, "Listen to my aunt who said this, it seems that my money is It seems that I rely on men to earn money, how I opened the powder house and dried tofu workshop, everyone has seen it with your own eyes, I have the ability to make money, do I need to rely on men?"
"My aunt, I like to hear that the wind is the rain. I don't know where I heard it. It said that I fell in love with King Zhan, so I believed it. When her family, Shen Ruomei, was kidnapped by a kidnapper in Jizhou, she found me. Kneeling and kowtowing, she forced me to go to King Zhan to help her save Shen Ruomei. You said that I don't even know whether King Zhan is tall or short, ugly or not, so where can I help her? I was so desperate that I ran out and hid for two months before returning to Jizhou..."
"What? Meier has been kidnapped? Tell me what's going on?" Hearing the heavy news from Shen Ruolan, all the old women in the room stopped their work and stared. Looking at her, it seemed that the gossip she reported aroused everyone's interest.
Aunt Shen never expected that Shen Ruolan would be able to reveal Meier's scandal. Her face turned red all of a sudden, and then turned dark again, and she shouted sharply, "Lanya, what are you doing? It's nothing. Don't talk nonsense, be careful that your uncle asks you to settle accounts."
Shen Ruolan is not afraid of his threats. Her principle of life is that you respect me one foot, and I respect you one foot. She has repeatedly run on her and provoke her. If she doesn't give her some color, she really thinks she is good What about bullying
Besides, she (Shen Ruolan) doesn't care about her (Shen Ruolan's) reputation, she (Shen Ruolan)'s information is exposed, so why should she (Shen Ruolan) be polite to her (Shen Ruolan), come on, let's hurt each other, anyway If the news is revealed, Shen Ruomei has a lot more dark history than her, and she can take out any one that is enough to make their family unable to hold their heads up in the village for a lifetime.
"I'm not talking nonsense. The case of Shen Ruomei's abduction is well documented in the Jizhou government office. Did you forget it so quickly, ma'am?" Shen Ruolan reminded kindly, "If you forget If it is, I will remind you, you can forget others, but you must not forget that Niu Kui and his old lady, in order to make money, those two women regarded Shen Ruomei as a village... "
"Shen Lanya!"
Aunt Shen saw that Shen Ruolan was going to reveal that Shen Ruomei was a village prostitute, and hurriedly interrupted her with a drink, not letting her continue.
Shen Ruolan was slapped on her chest by the aunt, and she looked like a frightened little white flower, "Auntie, why are you shouting so loudly, you scared the baby to death!"
Aunt Shen stared at her eyes, seeing Shen Ruolan's innocent death, she was so angry that she wanted to come forward and tear her apart, but she also knew that this was impossible, the dozen or so old women in this room were all It is absolutely impossible for her to take care of her by relying on this dead girl to make money. If she really makes a move, I am afraid that she will be beaten to the ground by these old women before she gets close to this dead girl. Must be this dead orchid.
Shen Ruolan looked at the aunt who was angry, scared and unable to do anything about her, she couldn't help laughing secretly, you think this person is mentally ill, her own daughter has more black history than anyone else, so she just wants to find someone else's little feet, this Aren't you in a hurry to find a draw
Aunt Shen's face was red and then white, then blue and purple, and the emotions in her eyes also changed several times, anger, threat, fear, and finally gradually turned into pleading.
Yes, she was afraid, afraid that Meier's background would be revealed, if it was exposed that Meier had been a village prostitute, what face would they have in this village? Besides, there is no impenetrable wall in the world, if her words spread to the Li family in Jizhou today and were heard by Li Daguan, wouldn't her Meier end
After weighing it, she decided not to give in to this dead girl, put down her figure and give in first, otherwise this dead girl can really let Zhou get rid of Meier's affairs!
She coughed and said, "Mei'er's stories are all misinformation. Don't listen to what you say. By the way, what did you do yesterday? I went to your house with your uncle. You and your father have nothing to do with you." At home, I even talked to your mother for a long time."
This is a distraction. She wants to end this unpleasant topic and bring it back.
Shen Ruolan didn't want to just take advantage of her like this, why do you run on someone if you want to, and reconcile if you want to reconcile? If she didn't see other things, she would let it go, but the aunt actually used her boudoir reputation to talk about things. Based on this alone, she must not let her go easily.
"I went to the county seat yesterday to do some errands. My father was worried that I would walk back and forth alone. He was afraid that I would be abducted by others like Shen Ruomei, so he went with me." Shen Ruolan turned around while talking. Sitting next to Kang Yan'er, it looked like she didn't want to leave, but wanted to have a good chat with Aunt Shen.
When Aunt Shen saw her turning back, she twitched her face twice, and when she heard what she said, her face became even more uncomfortable. While winking at Shen Ruolan, she lowered her tone and said, "It's all about you Sister Mei’s story was misrepresented, why are you still making noise? Oh, I almost forgot, when we come back this time, your first cousin and your second cousin will each bring you back five taels of silver. As for the gift, all the silver is with your uncle, and I will send it to you later."
Shen Ruolan is still half a month away from getting married. Aunt Shen is raising the gift money now just to let Shen Ruolan see for the sake of Uncle Shen, Shen Fucun, and Shen Jincun, and stop mentioning the matter of Shen Ruomei. It's all up to her to spend some money, so she can just let them go by keeping Germany.
Shen Ruolan is not short of money, and she is not someone who can be bought with a mere ten taels of silver. She ignored the aunt's eyes begging for peace, and continued: "Auntie, I am not short of money, you should keep this money for yourself, in case In the future, Shen Ruomei will be kicked out by her husband's family like last time, what are you going to do if you don't have any money?"
"Eh? What are you talking about, you damn girl? Do you ever talk like that?"
Aunt Shen was still begging Shen Ruolan to stop talking with her eyes, but when she heard that Shen Ruolan cursed her precious daughter to be kicked back by her husband's family, she suddenly became unhappy, she put her face down and opened her eyes and yelled.
Shen Ruolan said unhurriedly, "Let me tell you the truth, think about it, ma'am, the man Shen Ruomei married is the richest man in Jizhou, so the wealthy family must be very picky. If they know that Shen Ruomei has married and had an abortion before, She was also abducted to a village to be a daughter-in-law. Can people still want her? You can think of it with your heels, and it is definitely not possible. Even if we country people are looking for a wife, we still want to find a clean one, so ah, Shen Ruomei will be kicked out sooner or later, you'd better be prepared and save more money, so as not to be caught blind... "
"Put your mother's spiral fart, you're not clean, you're the one who kicks people out!"
When Aunt Shen heard Shen Ruolan's words about burying her daughter, she trembled with anger, pointed at Shen Ruolan's nose and scolded, "You bastard little Saobi, isn't it because Meier married better than you? If you are jealous, just bury her and curse her like this, you are so cruel, just wait for me, I will go to your house to talk to your mother, I will make you blind..."
Aunt Shen stood up tremblingly, and walked out while cursing, her mouth was so angry that she couldn't control it.
However, she was quite sensible and didn't stay here to continue to argue with Shen Ruolan, otherwise, Shen Ruolan would definitely reveal that Shen Ruomei was a village prostitute.
Seeing the aunt retreating, Shen Ruolan smiled at her back, "Auntie, when you go to my house to complain to my mother, don't forget to tell me about Shen Ruomei deliberately scalding me with boiling water. I haven't told my parents yet." Talk about it!"
Aunt Shen froze, she didn't expect that Lanya didn't mention such a big thing, if it was Meier, she would definitely come back crying and complain immediately.
Since Lan Ya didn't mention it, if she mentions it now, the second child and his wife will definitely not blame her for saying those things for Lan Ya's death. Instead, they will blame Meier for scalding her in their hearts. She, Meier, ignored it, after all, where is the injury on Si Lanya's foot, and if there is a quarrel, it will also affect Meier's reputation.
Hey, forget it, let her be unlucky this time, and stop being as knowledgeable as that dead girl...
