The other party was so rude, and Song Qiu's tone couldn't be better, "I also sell this herbal tea for a penny. It's a waste to use it to entertain guests. Lihua, just take it back and change it to a bowl of boiled water."
"Okay!" Zhang Lihua moved quickly, rushed up, took away the herbal tea and quickly replaced it with boiled water.
It was so fast that no one had time to react.
When Mrs. Xiao saw this, her face suddenly turned ugly, "Song Qiu, no matter what, I am still your serious eldest sister-in-law. We are direct relatives! Your mother is gone and her natal family comes to visit, so you can
If you treat me like this, you won’t be afraid that your mother will look down on you and feel cold!"
Song Qiu snorted coldly, "If I entertain you with good wine and meat, my mother will be heartbroken!"
"Okay, who among us is following whom, and who doesn't know yet? Just tell me what you want to do today, and leave as soon as you say so. Don't delay my business."
There were no guests at this time, so Song Qiu didn't have to worry about what he said.
In fact, it would be a good idea if she didn't use a stick to chase people away, but these people don't know their own virtues and have to get along with others.
When Mrs. Xiao heard this, she gritted her teeth angrily and almost cursed, but Mrs. Hu, who had come with her, could hold her steady and quickly pulled her under the table.
Then he looked at Song Qiu and said with a smile: "Ah Qiu, your aunt is such a bad tempered person. She has shallow eyelids and can't speak. Don't get along with her. This boiled water is very good. Drink it to quench your thirst!"
"We don't have anything else to do. We just learned that you were seriously ill not long ago, but we were busy with farming and couldn't spare the time to come see you. As you know, there are many people in the family, and they all open their mouths and wait for food. This
It’s impossible not to be busy. I’ve been busy. I finally found some free time today. Your aunt and I rushed over immediately. Seeing that Aqiu is in good health and you are really promising, we are here for you.
Mom is so happy!"
Song Qiu had already learned who these people from his maternal family were. Compared with his eldest aunt's firecracker character who talked about everything, the second aunt's smile with a knife hidden in her smile was more frightening.
of.
What she said sounded so pleasant, but Song Qiu knew that it was not what she meant at all.
This person is typically someone who says he is good, but in his heart is a scheming person.
She twitched her lips and said nothing, just waiting for Mr. Hu to say something.
Mrs. Hu's mouth was really open. After that, she started to say a lot of good things. She praised Song Qiu and felt sorry for Song Qiu. In short, she said everything that was right. She said it well.
Come in a big bunch.
Finally, we got down to business.
"Aqiu, you are not an outsider either. Second aunt never hides anything from you. The family is in a difficult situation now. Ever since they have dealt with the affairs behind your grandparents' deaths in the past few years, the family has been unable to make ends meet."
"There are a lot of things to spend money on here, but my and your aunt's black hair are all burnt white! There are your two aunts here waiting for us to worry about, and there are others below
Your cousins are also rushing to visit each other, and we are really busy like mules."
"That's all. There are more than 20 people in our family, and we eat and drink a lot every day. Our family only has a few acres of land, which is not enough!"
"So, there is nothing we can do. Your eldest uncle and your second uncle had to leave home to find a job, but God is not open to you! Your eldest uncle is paralyzed, and your second uncle has lost his hand. Our family's life will be terrible.
It’s even more stressful!”
"Otherwise, if your mother was ill, we would have to spend money to cure your mother's illness no matter what. If you fell ill not long ago, we should immediately send money to buy you medicine!"
"But unfortunately, we just can't get any money out of it, and we feel very ashamed of your mother!"
"Fortunately, Ah Qiu, you are a promising person now. Seeing that you are living so well, we are relieved and happy for your mother!"
Song Qiu's face became even more serious when he heard these words of Hu's Barabala.
As if she didn't know.
Her grandparents were not people who loved their daughter, and they were not good to her mother. When she was only half a year old, her father died of illness, and these two elders came to her house without saying a word and forced her mother to go back and remarry.
After telling her several times, her mother refused to agree, and finally asked her two uncles to come to the house to tie her up and force her to marry him off. I heard that a new wife had already been found.
If it weren't for several uncles from the Zhang family who happened to be at home at that time, who helped stop the people and called the villagers to come, the village chief grandfather came forward and asked her mother's opinion.
Her mother was determined not to remarry, so the village chief's grandpa said that if she married into Songshan Village, she would be Songshan Village's daughter-in-law. Since she didn't want to, no one could take her away. If she had to take her away by force, then she would have to.
Pass the test in their village.
The people in Songshan Village are so united.
The Jiang family is not very harmonious with neighbors in their own village. They want to ask the villagers to help rob someone?
It was probably impossible, so her grandfather and his family left in despair, not daring to mention this matter again.
But she couldn't stand down at that time, so she said harsh words, never recognizing her daughter again, and not allowing her to return to her parents' home.
Her mother is also a strong person. She said she would not remarry, so she gritted her teeth and pulled her up. With her own crafts, she also made a lot of money for the family.
In addition, when her grandfather was still alive, he was also a capable man, and the family had saved a lot of money.
If grandpa hadn't gone and dad had gone early, their family's life would have been one of the best in the village.
Her mother knew that her family didn't like her, and the relationship in her heart was also weak. If she wasn't allowed to go back, she wouldn't go back. She didn't go back even once for several years.
No family members came to the house either.
Until her grandfather died of illness that year.
These days, people pay attention to the things they want to do after death. No matter how poor the family is, they still have to do things properly after borrowing money, so that people can go there with peace of mind, and a good wheel will be cast in the underground.
Therefore, as long as the person is not evil-hearted or does not want to die, he will give people a good show.
The so-called grand ceremony refers to their ordinary customs. In addition to a good coffin, accompanied by paper bundles sent up the mountain, etc., they also like to invite people to perform Taoist rituals.
Once this is done, it will not only be good for the deceased, but also good for future generations, so it must be done.
And to perform a religious service, it must be done for seven days, and it must be done consecutively before the funeral.
The amount of money gained from one game was at least several taels of silver.
In addition to other miscellaneous things, it will cost at least more than ten taels of silver to handle posthumous matters.
The two elders of the Jiang family were not people who could save money. In addition, the family had little land and did not want to look for other ways to make money. They had no financial resources at that time.
To marry this daughter, you have to ask for a dowry gift of ten taels of silver.
After reaping this benefit, the two of them grew older and gave birth to two more daughters. Not only that, they also urged their two daughters-in-law to have more daughters, just to get betrothal gifts.
It's a pity that before the two daughters could get married to the granddaughters, the two elders were gone.
