Chapter 221 Rumors
These days, the Sang family has been very busy, and no one has time to visit people everywhere, and they are unaware of the gossip that has quietly spread in the village. It was not until the afternoon of the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month that Aunt Guihua and her neighbor Aunt Li came to find Mu. After listening to what the two said, Mu knew what happened.
It turned out that since yesterday, Aunt Guihua and Aunt Li Er heard rumors about mulberry leaves. It turned out that the child in her belly was not a seed of the Zheng family, but a wild breeder she got pregnant with an unknown wild man when she was building a house in the Sang family!
This rumor is unreliable at first hearing, but it is spread like a nose and eyes, saying that the Sang family's son-in-law has been gone for almost three months, and Mang Ye's belly has only two months of emergence. As soon as the time comes, he knows that it is not the Zheng family's seed.
Moreover, this rumor came from Shangzheng Village. Some people said it was said by the old couple of the Zheng family, and even said that Sang Ye did not voluntarily go back to her parents' home to settle their baby, but was driven out by the Zheng family. When the Sang family's son-in-law came back, they would divorce their wives and completely drove Sang Ye, who was unfaithful, out of the Zheng family.
There are many people who have heard of this rumor in Lijia Village, and only a few people believe it. However, if the Sang family does not deny the rumors in time, it will soon spread everywhere. By then, it will become yellow mud and fall into the crotch. It will be either shit or shit.
Aunt Guihua and Aunt Li Er and the Sang family had a good relationship. Later, the Sang family made a lot of money and made money with them, so their relationship became a little better. Therefore, when they heard rumors about Sang Ye and Sang family, they immediately came to tell Mu.
The two knew very well that once this rumor spread and someone believed it, it would definitely force people to death. They knew the seriousness of the matter and did not dare to say it in front of Sang Ye, for fear that she would be affected by the stimulation, so they found an excuse to find Mu.
"Which one who killed Qiandao is spreading rumors behind his back, and when I find out who she is, I will see that I will not tear her stinky mouth and beat her to her will not recognize her parents!" After hearing this, Mu's lungs were furious and cursed in front of Aunt Guihua and Aunt Li Er.
"Sister-in-law Mu, calm down. Now is not the time to be annoyed." Aunt Guihua quickly persuaded Mu, for fear that she would go to find someone who spread rumors and make the matter a mess on the table, making people laugh: "You should try to find a way to suppress these messy rumors, otherwise it would be bad if it would be heard one day."
She didn't believe the rumors. She had never seen anyone more promising than the eldest son-in-law of the Sang family. The daughter of the Sang family would steal people if she had a trick on her mind. What's more, her mind was not only not bad, but she was also very smart, so she would not do such stupid things.
"Yes, Sister Mu, this matter is temporarily circulated in private. If you make a big fuss, your face is not good-looking, and the Zheng family's face is not good-looking." Aunt Li also knew Mu's bad temper, so he followed Aunt Guihua to persuade her.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything wrong." Mu's face looked ugly, and he waved his hands at the two of them, trying his best to calm down his anger.
She was angry and did not get confused by the anger. The most important thing at the moment was to suppress the rumors, then to catch the rumor-mongering person and clean up.
But this matter seems simple, but it is not easy to do. You can't just tell everyone that her daughter is innocent and that the child she is also from the old Zheng family. If she really does this, few people will believe it.
Aunt Guihua saw Mu's embarrassment. She thought for a while and suggested: "However, you ask your in-laws to come here, as long as they don't believe the rumors and show closer to Xiaoye in front of others, people outside will naturally not believe it."
After hearing this, Aunt Li thought the idea was good, so she quickly echoed: "This is a good idea. There are few people who believe it. It's just that the fun is spreading in private. Your in-laws will recognize Xiaoye's grandson. It's useless for the people who spread rumors to say it's useless."
After thinking for a while, Mu thought that this idea was the simplest and most effective, so he nodded and said, "I will go to Zheng's house tomorrow and take my in-laws home for a reunion dinner. Then, let the three of them go back together."
Speaking of this, she sighed: "It is because my eldest son-in-law is not here that there are such dirty rumors. I am afraid that Xiao Ye can't stand it and deliberately throw dirty water on her body. I just don't know who is so vicious and it's so annoying!"
Aunt Guihua heard this, hesitated for a moment before asking: "Rumor"
Yan came from her in-laws' house. You can find an opportunity to ask Xiao Ye if she offended someone. Maybe she can find out who it is."
"Well, when I go back, I will ask if I don't catch this person, who knows if she will do something to harm my Xiaoye next time?" Mu Shi was thinking, otherwise she wouldn't even be able to sleep.
Aunt Guihua and Aunt Li Er comforted Mu until Mu's mood completely stabilized, and they went home.
Mu stood outside for a while and was sure that his daughter would not see anything strange. Then he raised his foot and returned home. He went to the kitchen to serve a bowl of chicken soup stewed at noon.
"Mom, you just finished your meal. You really raise me like a pig!" Seeing my mother walking in with a bowl of chicken soup, Mulberry leaves screamed, but had to clean up the things on the table so that she could put chicken soup on it.
It’s no wonder that Mangye has such a big reaction. Since she returned to her parents’ home, she has been drinking chicken soup every few days, or fish soup or bone soup. Now that she still eats these things in the month, most of them are eaten by herself. The children in her belly don’t need so much nutrition at all.
In just a few days, she obviously felt that she had gained weight several times. If this continues, she is very suspicious that her belly has not been supported by the child. First, the layers of fat have swollen her.
"Bao, what are you talking about?" Mu glared at his daughter in anger and carefully placed the chicken soup on the table: "Hurry and eat while it's hot. After you finish eating, go to the yard for a few rounds. Mom can clean up your house and sleep in the new house tonight."
When Sang Ye heard this, he knew that he had to drink this bowl of chicken soup if he was unhappy, so he could only take the chopsticks from his mother's hand. Just looking at the chicken soup with oily flowers floating on her face, her brows frowned unconsciously, obviously feeling nauseous. But the one in her belly was very well-behaved and not aroused at all. She was completely tired of drinking it, so she felt like this.
Mu pretended not to see it, and did not urge his daughter again. He just pretended to be careless and said, "Tomorrow is a reunion dinner. Alin is afraid that he will not be able to come back. Mother plans to bring your parents-in-law and the others to eat together."
Sang Ye thought that her mother was pitiful. She was the first reunion dinner at her parents' home. She was moved and hurriedly swallowed a small sip of chicken soup she had just drunk: "I'm afraid it won't work. My sister-in-law may come back tomorrow, but her father-in-law will definitely not be able to leave."
When Mu heard this, his brows frowned slightly and quickly calmed down: "It's okay, our family's reunion dinner will be in the afternoon. I'll ask your elder brother to go to Zheng's house to say that later. Your sister-in-law may have gone back then, so it won't affect your in-laws coming to our house for dinner."
Sang Ye looked at his mother suspiciously and asked, "Mom, why do you have to call your in-laws to have a reunion dinner? It's not just me who is having a reunion dinner at home, but Zhizi's family. You just stay with me, and Zhizi's side is delayed."
Unexpectedly, his daughter was so sensitive, Mu's eyes twitched and he concealed: "Zhier went back to her parents' home for a reunion dinner every year. My mother no longer cares about her anymore. You are different. It's the first reunion dinner. My mother doesn't want you to be wronged."
When she heard this was the reason, Sang Ye was so moved that she was so moved that she wanted to tell her mother that she was not wronged and not at all. But it was her mother's wishes, and she couldn't bear to let her down, so she nodded and said, "Then please, I will go back with my elder brother later. I'm afraid that my parents-in-law and the others will be embarrassed to come over."
Mu was startled and said anxiously: "No need, your elder brother is going alone. It is better to stay at home if you have a body, so as not to bump into it."
Perhaps realizing that his reaction was too intense, Mu quickly explained: "Your second brother will go later, just rely on your second brother's mouth, don't worry that he can't tell your parents-in-law."
Sang Ye was so careful that when she noticed her mother's strange reaction, she unconsciously paid attention. It would be better if she didn't explain, but when she explained, she revealed more flaws.
Knowing that my mother had something to hide from her, Sang Ye didn't ask directly. She said calmly: "Okay, if you have a second brother, I don't have to worry. When I finish drinking the chicken soup, I will go directly to my new home."
Mu was obviously relieved and responded with a smile, and even forgot to ask her daughter if she had offended anyone.
Waiting for a bowl of chicken soup, mulberry leaves touched their stomachs, and felt like they were connected.
She could hardly walk anymore. While her mother and sister-in-law were tidying up her things, she slowly walked outside the yard and gently patted the Paulownia tree at the entrance of the yard.
It was the coldest time of the year, and the Paulownia tree had already fallen into a semi-hibernation state. After being patted by mulberry leaves several times, it woke up in a daze and complained unhappily: "I was woken up by your mother's loud voice just now, but now I'm awakened by you again. What kind of evil have I committed? I can't sleep well."
Sang Ye was embarrassed and quickly apologized to the Paulownia Tree: "It's not right for me to bother you, but I really have something important to ask you. When I finish asking, you can scold me."
The Paulownia tree hummed proudly and said in an old man's tone: "Okay, okay, I won't bother with you, just a little man. In the spring of the next year, remember to add some ingredients to me."
"Okay, I will definitely add some materials to you so that you will be richer and taller in the coming year!" The requirement was not very high, Mangye agreed happily.
While the Paulownia tree is in a good mood and will not fall asleep for a while, she quickly told the questions she wanted to know. She did not forget that the Paulownia tree had said before, and her mother's loud voice just now also woke it up.
