After listening to Yue Zhongyao's three candidates, Lao Yuetou and Yue Er and Yue Si both thought they were good.
Mrs. Wu frowned tightly, as if someone owed her eight thousand yuan.
Where is this good family?
One of the two families in the city rented a shabby courtyard in a slum area. The other was just a small-time policeman who didn't even have a place to stay in the city. The two families didn't have a house, and they didn't even have any extra money.
The other one was even worse.
When she got married, she had to work hard in the fields to get food to eat. And she had to wait until the family was separated. With a big family, she had to take care of the whole family. Besides, her daughter didn't go to the fields very often at home.
.
This one is a no-go.
Yue Zhongyao knew that his mother would have thousands of reasons to refute him, and he knew that the three families he and his eldest sister had selected would be unsatisfactory in his mother's eyes.
His mother was jumping around in the main room and scolding him for not treating his sister as his own sister and not wanting his sister to have an easy time.
He just listened quietly without saying a word.
Now he just hopes that his father can stand up and be able to shoulder the responsibility of being the head of the family and make the final decision on Xiao Man's marriage.
Yue Zhongyao is quite satisfied with his father's performance during this period.
His mother has been powerful in the family for decades. Maybe his father is not the kind of person who is afraid of his mother-in-law, but just doesn't want to get involved with his mother.
Yue Xiaoman listened anxiously outside the hall as her mother dismissed her third brother's kindness as worthless.
But she knew that it was difficult for her to come forward about this kind of thing and she should avoid suspicion. So she didn't say anything even though she was anxious.
In the main room, Lao Yue clutched the hookah rod tightly with his head and breathed fire into his eyes. Wu didn't look like a good person to anyone, so she was not without disappointment in her heart.
This woman has not lived a good life since she married him. She also gave birth to five children for him, all of whom were successful, and left him three sons to carry on the bloodline, which can be regarded as a great achievement for her hard work.
He was considerate of her and willing to go along with her in everything, but this woman was actually going too far.
Not only did the third daughter-in-law run away in anger, but she still raised her own granddaughter outside. Now that her daughter's marriage was delayed by her, her son's kindness was worthless.
Is it so easy to get into a wealthy family?
Don't even look at what kind of family you are. You are just a mud-legged person. Do you still want to imitate other people's clothing of gold, silver, silk and satin?
Not to mention wearing it on the ground. Even my own hands can tear the silk thread.
What kind of pot top and lid? Who has ever seen someone digging in the fields wearing silk and satin?
"Then what do you mean? You don't think it's good? You're the best! I've been looking for several years, but I haven't found a good and satisfying family! Xiao Mansheng has been delayed by you until now, and you still can't find it.
Is she her own mother? How long will it take to delay the child?"
The old man had a dissatisfied look on his face, and his voice could not help but rise a little higher.
"Fart! How am I not her biological mother? Isn't it for her own good that I choose carefully? I raised the daughter I worked so hard to give birth to and let her go to other people's homes to suffer hardship? It's better to raise her
At home, I can still see her all the time!"
Mrs. Wu didn't think there was anything wrong with her choosing more people. Aren't mothers always doing it for the good of their children? Could it be that they were all chosen for her?
"You can't explain the truth with a cow. No one said that you are wrong in choosing carefully. I just want you to understand what kind of family we are. Don't imitate others who have eyes on the top of their heads. Those who can't climb, just stare at it.
What's the use? Even if you keep staring at it, they won't carry your daughter in."
When Lao Yuetou faced the Wu family, he felt like a scholar meeting a soldier.
As soon as Lao Yuetou finished speaking, Mrs. Wu responded: "Isn't it all your fault for your good son? If it hadn't been for him, he had nothing to do and quit his job, wouldn't Xiaoman still be able to find a good family? There is only one arrest in a county.
!”
Wu's gaze almost made a hole in Yue Zhongyao's face.
After talking about it, it came back to the same point.
Yue Zhongyao let out a long sigh. His mother had the ability to bring things back to him.
He felt a little tired.
For some reason he suddenly felt that there was no hope.
Lao Yue turned his head and glanced at his third son. Yue Zhongyao's demeanor made him feel a sudden pain in his heart.
Lao Yue turned his head and shouted at Mrs. Wu: "What do you mean? San'er and Chunfen worked hard to select three suitable families. What else are you dissatisfied with? The child has been running around for three days. Before you
There is nothing in your eyes?"
Wu disagreed: "He is a head hunter. He has been in the city for a year and he still doesn't know a few good families. Look what he is looking for. Either he has no house, no foundation and no job, or there are too many people and he is bombarding him.
They are digging in the ground for food. What kind of good family is there!"
Yue Zhongyao closed his eyes and put his hands on his knees to stand up.
When he saw Yue Xiaoman outside the hall, he felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.
He rushed in and said, "Mom, let's choose from these three families. I think the people chosen by the third brother are all good."
When Mrs. Wu saw her coming in, she shouted: "Girls, this is what you can listen to? You are not shy or impetuous, you have no control over this! How can these three families be good families?"
Yue Xiaoman was not afraid of her. As soon as Wu finished speaking, Yue Xiaoman also raised his voice and said: "Mom, I think these three families are very good. If you don't like them, maybe they don't like me! Dad, this
It’s up to you this time, choose from these three families!”
Wu was so angry that she jumped up and pushed her hastily: "It has nothing to do with you here. Mom will choose a good family for you. You will have no worries about food and drink in the future."
Yue Xiaoman ignored her and went to shake Lao Yuetou's arm.
The old man patted her arm comfortingly and said to Mrs. Wu: "If you don't like it, then you can find it. If you can't find a good family in half a month, choose one of these three families."
Hu. I will definitely marry Xiao Man this year."
Wu jumped up: "Half a month? What kind of good family can I find in half a month!"
"It's just half a month. San'er found three suitable families in three days, and I paid more than half a month."
…
Yue Zhongyao did not stay in the main room anymore, his ears were buzzing. He stood up with his hands on his knees and walked out.
In the village in summer, the sun is shining brightly, the leaves are green and the grass is green, and you can hear the chirping of birds and insects on the way out of the village.
Yue Zhongyao's footsteps were heavy.
The door to Qiao's courtyard was ajar, and the crack was very small. He tried his best to look in, but he couldn't see the person he wanted to see.
The door was very thick, but it wasn't like he couldn't push it open.
He wanted to see her, but he was afraid of seeing her.
She has asked him twice about leaving the book.
Every word she said seemed to cut a knife in his heart. He wanted to avoid her, but he couldn't help but want to see her.
"father?"
Xiao Wan'er held a small cloth bag in her arms with one hand, pushed the door hard with the other hand, and squeezed between the two doors.
Yue Zhongyao stepped forward and helped her open the door wider so that his daughter's little body could come out more smoothly.
When I crossed the threshold, I picked up a handful from my daughter's thin arm.
Xiao Wan'er landed on the ground, raised her head and blinked her big eyes at her biological father who had disappeared for a few days.
Yue Zhongyao rubbed his daughter's soft hair, knelt down and asked her, "Does Wan'er miss her father?"
After asking, I felt very sour in my heart, and my eyes seemed to be filled with mist.
Xiao Wan'er looked at him steadily, and nodded heavily after a long time.
Yue Zhongyao lowered his head and blinked several times before taking his daughter in his arms and sitting on the threshold together.
"Where are Wan'er going? What are you holding in your arms?"
The little thing sat closely against her father, staring at her father.
Hearing her father's question, she grinned and said: "They are boiled peanuts. Grandma Lu sent them. They were just picked from the field. My aunt boiled them. As soon as they were cooked, Wan'er wanted to take them to the workshop to invite Liu
Sister Zhi and the others eat."
As he spoke, he opened the bag, revealing the steaming peanuts, with water seeping from the outside of the bag. The child must have been eager to take out the peanuts before they were dry.
Yue Zhongyao smiled: "Wan'er likes to eat boiled peanuts?"
The little thing nodded hurriedly and stuffed the peanuts wrapped in cloth into Yue Zhongyao's hands.
Yue Zhongyao was stunned for a moment, and saw that his daughter had straightened up. He took out a pill from the opened bag, rubbed it in his palms, put it to his mouth and breathed it twice, and then peeled it off with his little hands.
.
"Daddy, eat it."
Yue Zhongyao was watching with a smile, but his daughter might as well have stuffed a peanut into his mouth.
Yue Zhongyao couldn't tell what it felt like.
Seeing his daughter looking at him eagerly, he rolled his tongue and chewed slowly. The peanuts were cooked very soft and glutinous.
"Daddy, is it delicious?"
His daughter's big black eyes looked at him with dazzling eyes.
Yue Zhongyao felt sour in his heart. He rubbed his daughter's hair with one hand and nodded: "It's delicious."
The little thing smiled with the corners of his mouth curled up.
He quickly stuffed the other one into his mouth, took another one from the bag, and peeled it off carefully with his little hands.
After peeling it off, he turned around and stuffed one into Yue Zhongyao's mouth, and then fed the remaining one into his own mouth.
Yue Zhongyao saw that his daughter liked to eat, so he also used his hands to peel it for his daughter.
"Where's your mother?"
The little thing’s mouth was so stuffed that he couldn’t speak clearly: “…I’m reading Zhang Ben…”
Yue Zhongyao took a look inside, and found that the courtyard was quiet and quiet. No one was walking around, he couldn't see that person, and couldn't hear that person's voice.
Yue Zhongyao reluctantly turned his gaze back. It was only the height of the threshold and the distance that his eyes could see.
But he just didn't dare to walk in.
"My aunt is still cooking in the kitchen. There is still a lot of food. After a while, Wan'er will go get it after eating. Daddy, do you like it?"
Yue Zhongyao looked at the face similar to his wife's and nodded.
The little thing grinned happily: "I like to eat too. Daddy, you peel it for Wan'er, and Wan'er peels it for daddy."
"good."
The father and daughter just sat next to each other. The threshold was half a calf high and less than half a palm wide, so the father and daughter did not mind stretching their buttocks. Without entering the door, they sat on the threshold and happily peeled and boiled peanuts for each other.
Then feed each other.
After a while, peanut shells were peeled all over the ground. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.) Huijun, beautiful and elegant,
