Chapter 51 My mother is busy at home!
The Yuan family and the old Xu family are separated by two hills. They rarely interact with each other during normal times. The Xu Zhang family does not like to see the old Yuan family at all.
Mrs. Xu Zhang never had a good look when she saw Mrs. Yuan.
Before Mrs. Yuan got married, Mrs. Xu Zhang went to Lao Yuan's house to meet someone. After that, she never went to Lao Yuan's house again.
On the other hand, Mrs. Yuan often came to old Xu's house to see Mrs. Xu, and Mrs. Xu and Zhang became disgusted every time she saw her.
No, I just heard something, the autumn wind is knocking on the door again.
…
Mrs. Yuan came closer, smiled and said hello, "My mother-in-law is busy at home! There are so many people, is there something going on at home?"
The people watching the excitement all around craned their necks to look.
Mrs. Xu Zhang was disgusted, but she didn't want any evil moth to come up at this juncture and ruin the good thing about the old girl's loquat ointment.
These few days are a critical period. When the loquat season is over, she will have time to deal with these ghosts and monsters.
In addition, there are so many outsiders watching at the entrance of the courtyard, so there is no need for others to laugh.
He replied with a smile, "It's nothing serious, I just want to build a cellar. What kind of wind brings you to our house? Your legs and feet are not convenient for walking over mountains and ridges. Please come into the yard quickly."
Have a sip of tea."
He pushed open the courtyard and invited people in.
Then, the courtyard door was closed with a bang, blocking the inquiring and curious eyes from outside.
After closing the courtyard door, Mrs. Xu Zhang's expression turned cold.
Mrs. Yuan had already heard her mother's voice outside in the yard. When Mrs. Yuan came in, she stood up happily and wiped her hands.
"Mom, why are you here? You came suddenly and didn't even say hello."
Mrs. Yuan said, "I have nothing to do and wanted to come and see you. I made some cornmeal steamed buns at home this morning and I brought one for you. Although you live a good life at Lao Xu's house and have enough food and clothing, you still want to
Since you loved this bite when you were little, I gave you one to try..."
With that said, he took off the bag and took out a small corn bun, about the size of a baby's fist.
He took it out and broke it in half. He wanted to give Xu Zhang a portion, "My mother-in-law should try it too."
Mrs. Xu Zhang refused to throw her away, "I'm not going to tell you whether it's okay or not. Your buns are so small. You must have made this thing the size of a thumb shell to disgust people?"
This merciless retort made Mrs. Yuan's face full of grievance, "No, mother-in-law, our family's conditions are just like this. They are indeed very small, and we don't have solid food to eat every day. We only have to deal with vegetable porridge."
Yes, I know it’s not as good as your old Xu family’s family background..."
Mrs. Xu Zhang snorted coldly, "Mom, none of us understand each other. You don't have to pretend. If you have it, you have it. If you don't have it, you don't have it. You don't have to make a disgusting thing the size of a fingernail to disturb your daughter. In your daughter's heart
As for you guys, didn’t I just give you dumplings to eat the day before yesterday? Why don’t you give me a corn bun the size of a fingernail in return? You can take this kind of thing out and mess around with it in private, but you still have the nerve to take it.
Are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf in front of me?"
Mrs. Yuan made a big fuss and was embarrassed.
She looked at her daughter Yuanshi with a helpless expression.
Yuanshi was also sarcastic...
Luo Shi followed suit and didn't dare to speak.
Only Xiao Liuzi sniffed his nose smoothly...
At this time, Xu Jiaojiao's voice came from the upper room, "Mom, I'm thirsty. Please pour me a cup of loquat dew and drink it."
Mrs. Xu Zhang quickly turned her head and responded, "Hey! Here we come, Jiaojiao."
He turned back and said, "Hurry up and peel the fruit. If you just think about being lazy and not working all day long, you will be so poor that you can't even eat. You don't even have a place to enjoy the autumn wind..."
Mrs. Yuan's face was gray and gray, and the clay figurine was also very angry. This Xu Zhang family was too bullying.
If you point and scold Huai, you might as well scold them, Lao Yuan's family.
I wanted to turn around and leave, but when I thought of today's mission, I endured it.
After Mrs. Xu Zhang left, Mrs. Yuan felt very sorry.
He took my mother's hand and said, "Mom, come sit with me in the room. Fourth brother and sister, you peel it off first, and I will take my mother to the room to drink some tea."
Luo Shi responded, "Hey, okay, let's go."
Mother Yuan and her daughter entered the house and sat down on the Kang.
Mrs. Yuan poured a cup of tea for my mother, "Drink some water, mother. I'm sorry, my mother-in-law is just like that. She speaks very quickly. Don't argue with her, don't take it to your heart."
Mrs. Yuan said angrily, "I know her. She has a bad reputation from all over the country. Who doesn't know her? I won't care about her. I pity you. You are with her every day and you are tortured by her."
, Fortunately you are good-tempered, who could have endured it if you were someone else? I feel sorry for my son, if I had known earlier I would not have married you to Lao Xu’s family. My daughter is hard-working and good-looking, so who could not marry her when she was young?"
Yuanshi smiled back, "Don't say such angry words that are worthwhile. The man in charge of our family has a good temper, the children are obedient, and there is no shortage of food and clothing. It's okay. But I can't help many parents, you always
do not be angry."
Mrs. Yuan took out the small cornmeal buns that were broken into two halves and said, "Eat quickly, I'll hold it in your arms. It's still warm. None of your nephews got a share. They are all greedy.
This is what I saved for you secretly."
Yuanshi was very moved and pushed it back without picking it up.
"It's not easy to have someone who stutters in the family. I accept your kindness, mother. You can eat it yourself. There is nothing in Lao Xu's family that I can't eat for."
When Mrs. Yuan saw that Mr. Yuan didn't want it, she didn't even bother to push it further, so she just put it away.
"As long as you feel sorry for my mother, then she will take her back."
Yuanshi said again, "Mom, wait a minute. I still have some dry cornbread here. What I have saved in the past two days is to accumulate more for another day. I asked Erlang to make another trip. When you come, I will
Bring back."
These two days’ worth of cornbread was made in half and half, secretly saved by the children in the second room.
Mrs. Yuan was not polite and put it away with a small bundle, "Okay, your brothers haven't had anything to eat these days. They are so hungry that they can't even get out of bed. Your father can't walk either. I ate cornmeal today."
Wotou, that’s why you asked me to come. Erlang, my good boy, sent dumplings to our family the day before yesterday. Your father and I smelled the smell, so your two brothers snatched them away and ate them. I was guilty of giving birth to those dumplings.
Nie Zhan, seeing your nephews grow up, life in this family is getting more and more difficult..."
This cry of poverty is not repeated once or twice. When will this day come, it will not be crying of poverty?
When Yuan heard this, she understood that something was going on again, "Mom, what's the matter with you suddenly coming here today? If you have something to do, I can't bring you a letter. I have to go there in person on this hot day...
