Yue Zhongyao took three steps and turned back, following his nephew who came to call him down the mountain. His opponent
Yue Boyang's six-year-old son Yue Donggen came to call him and said he had a guest at home. Nai asked him to go home quickly.
Yue Zhongyao did not want to go back. Although his wife did not speak to him, she was organizing the firewood branches he had chopped behind him. Although both of them were working hard, Yue Zhongyao obviously enjoyed the opportunity to be alone with his wife more.
Unexpectedly, Yue Donggen had candy in his mouth and was thinking about the delicious food at home, so he took his third uncle's hand and dragged him out of the woods as hard as he could.
Yue Zhongyao was not easy to resist. If he hurt the eldest grandson of the Yue family, his mother might never end it with him. His mother treasured this eldest grandson very much, and his second sister-in-law even regarded this eldest son as a pearl.
Yue Zhongyao didn't even have time to say a few words to Qiao Mingjin before he was dragged away by Yue Donggen. With each step he looked back, his wife's figure became smaller and smaller in his eyes.
Qiao Mingjin didn't reply, and the child didn't call her, so she was happy to pretend to be mute.
Qiao Mingjin was not affected in any way. She grabbed the hatchet that Yue Zhongyao had chopped on the dead branch and started chopping firewood.
Although Yue Zhongyao told her to wait for him to come back before cutting, he would come over to help in the next two days. But Qiao Mingjin knew Wu's character, how could she watch her son stay at home and help others?
In these days, Qiao Mingjin also helped the Yue family sell eggs several times. She didn't earn a penny from her family, but paid them two cents per egg. She would not leave any chance for Wu to talk.
Qiao Mingjin was chopping firewood alone in the forest without any distractions, as if Yue Zhongyao had never appeared just now.
On the other hand, when Yue Zhongyao returned home and saw Liu's mother and daughter sitting in the hall, his face immediately darkened.
His brows were furrowed and his mouth was pursed tightly. He glanced at the two people sitting in the hall and wanted to leave in a blink of an eye.
Mrs. Sun grabbed him with a smile.
He said with a warm face, "Look at my third uncle, he's so young-skinned, he's so embarrassed." After saying that, he chuckled to himself.
Yue Zhongyao glanced at Sun with a gloomy face, and then looked at Yue Boyang.
But his second brother didn't even give him a look.
Ever since Mrs. Sun gave birth to her eldest grandson, his second brother had been so suppressed by his second sister-in-law that he didn't even dare to refute a word.
As soon as Yue Zhongyao lifted his steps, Mrs. Wu, who was sitting in the seat, said: "Lao San, you went to the city to work as an errand, and you are so indifferent to human affairs? I didn't see Mei Niang and you... and your Aunt Liu coming.
Are you ready? Where are you working as a doorkeeper? There is nothing for you to rush to do outside!"
Yue Zhongyao had no choice but to turn around and glance at the person sitting there. His father was holding a hookah pole and spinning it around without saying anything or looking at him. He was considerate of the fact that there were guests in the room and did not smoke the hookah.
Yue Zhongyao had no choice but to salute Mrs. Liu. Liu Meiniang glanced at him quickly and then lowered her head, looking very shy.
Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Yu saw this, and the two sisters-in-law looked at each other with unclear expressions. With this look, they won't eat Yue Laosan to death in the future?
And how could her mother-in-law, Mrs. Liu, be a simple person? This mother-in-law is not easy to get rid of.
The two sisters usually stand in the hall while watching a play, neither leaving nor speaking. Now that there are guests at home, and the parents-in-law are sitting in the hall, where is there room for them to sit?
Mrs. Liu raised a decent smile and said to Yue Zhongyao: "We, my mother-in-law, have just learned that you will not take a bath for these two days. Didn't you originally say that you will take a rest for two more days? Could it be that this time?
How many more days can I take off?"
After hearing this, Yue Zhongyao said to Mrs. Liu, "No. I just have some free time these two days, but I may get busy later."
Ms. Liu nodded while listening, and said with a smile: "It's better to be busy. If the errand has nothing to do, then he has really become an official errand of Qingshui Yamen Qingshui?"
After saying that, he glanced at Mr. Wu, and he and the others laughed together.
Mrs. Wu has never heard her son say that he will be busy in the future. It is good for his son to be busy. Only when he is busy can he get money. Otherwise, he will just wander on the street, where will he get any money?
Mrs. Wu found out clearly that if an errand in the yamen was sent out to be an errand, no matter who it was, who would do the job, how could the errand get any less benefit?
Mrs. Wu was immediately happy.
Sitting opposite Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Liu glanced at Mrs. Wu and smiled with an unclear expression. She looked like she had picked up gold on the street.
Mrs. Liu picked up the handkerchief and covered her mouth and nose with a smile, and then said to Yue Zhongyao: "I also know that you are busy on weekdays. Even if you are in a city, I rarely see you. I think of you and take a rest.
, Mei Niang also said that she has never been to your house, so we and I are visiting relatives and come to your house to recognize each other."
After hearing this, Mrs. Wu said repeatedly: "Sister Liu, you came just in time! If you hadn't come, I was thinking of going to the city to see you. My old lady has also been to Qingshanji, and there is really no one in this city.
I've been there a few times. I thought this girl was lovely before, but I didn't expect her to be even more lovely after we met her! This is really an advantage for my third child."
After saying that, he chuckled.
The Sun family and the Yu family also cooperated and praised Liu Meiniang desperately.
When Liu Meiniang heard this, she smiled on her face, and the red clouds spread all over her face. She had dressed up a lot before coming, so this added even more color.
When Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Yu looked at it, their faces became a little uneasy.
It turned out that Qiao Mingjin had heard that Yue Laosan was going to marry an equal wife, and Qiao Mingjin had made peace with her. If they couldn't make peace with each other, they ended up getting separated.
The two of them were happy, thinking that they no longer had to face Qiao's aloof and distinguished face every day, and they felt secretly happy. Every time the three sisters-in-law stood together, everyone else's eyes would be turned to Qiao Mingjin.
Yes, the two of them are like Qiao Mingjin's companion girls.
So the two of them never went to the market together with Qiao Mingjin.
Qiao Mingjin was finally waiting for Qiao Mingjin to move out, and she was very happy. She was looking forward to the newcomer coming in so that she could have a chance to be shy in front of Mr. Qiao, and also to show off in front of the newcomer how to be the eldest sister-in-law and the one who would be the first to move in.
I just didn't expect that although Liu Meiniang's color was not as good as Qiao Mingjin's, she couldn't help but look young! Moreover, with every gesture and glance in her eyes, the man's body felt numb.
Didn't you glance at Yue Lao Er and Yue Lao Si several times secretly?
The sisters-in-law gritted their back molars, each glared at their man, and then thought about it.
Look at Liu Meiniang's appearance. She came with a dowry several times more than theirs. If she can please the man and her mother-in-law, will there be a place for her and her two people? In the future, she will give birth to a grandchild for the in-law family.
I am afraid that my son will have to stay behind.
Thinking about it this way, the two sisters actually felt that something was not going well.
Ms. Liu, who was sitting in the hall, didn't know what the two sisters-in-law were doing. She was a shrewd person who could talk, and she looked delicate and frail, making her husband look pitiable. After a few words,
All the people in the room welcomed her mother and daughter without telling them, wishing they could hold their hands and wish they could stay here for ten more days and a half.
The Wu family directly ordered Yue Laosi to go to the butcher in Shanghe Village to buy some meat, and then ordered the two daughters-in-law to kill chickens, as if they were entertaining distinguished guests.
Yue Zhongyao looked at the room full of smiling Yan Yan. Thinking of his wife who was struggling to cut firewood alone on the mountain, he felt a little sour in his heart.
After a brief explanation, he turned around and went back to his room.
Mrs. Wu even joked that she was shy. Yue Zhongyao had no expression on his face and returned to his room silently. He closed the door behind him.
Thinking about his wife and daughter, he originally wanted to help his wife share more of the work, and also wanted to ask his wife not to work so hard. He would work hard to earn money to make their mother and daughter live a better life.
I was still thinking about looking for my daughter and teasing her. Thinking of her pink and tender daughter, Yue Zhongyao felt soft in his heart. This time he brought back a lot of cakes and snacks. He was just afraid that they were not at home, so he didn't
Didn't take it over.
Yue Zhongyao smiled as he thought about it, walked to the table and unpacked his baggage.
After unpacking the baggage, Yue Zhongyao stood there stunned.
Except for my two changes of clothes, there was nothing left. The two oil paper bags wrapped with cakes and candies were gone! There was also a piece of flower cloth for Jin Niang and her daughter, which was also missing!
Yue Zhongyao shook the wrapping cloth again and again. He also shook out his clothes, but there was no trace of the two oil paper bags and the flower cloth.
Yue Zhongyao stood in front of the table in a daze, holding the wrapping cloth and two pieces of untied clothes.
Soon he opened the door again and walked out.
"Mom, have you unpacked my burden?" Yue Zhongyao asked Wu as he entered the main room.
Mrs. Wu glared at him. Then she smiled and said to Mrs. Liu, "This child is still so frizzy. He is almost getting married."
After laughing with Mrs. Liu, she said to Yue Zhongyao: "Mom was afraid that there was no one around to take care of you, and that there might be some dirty clothes in the bag, so she happened to take it out and wash it. You kid, you forgot all the cakes you brought back.
I took it out, but fortunately Donggen went to dig it up. Otherwise, those two clothes would have been stained with grease, and they almost stained the flower cloth."
After speaking, he turned around and said to Mrs. Liu with a smile: "This child is really filial. Every time he comes back, he brings something for his nieces and nephews. This time he even pulled a piece of cloth for me. He is really filial. Your daughter is getting married.
My family is just waiting to enjoy happiness."
After saying this, Liu Meiniang blushed and lowered her head.
Mrs. Wu glanced at Liu Meiniang with a smile, and then said to Yue Zhongyao: "It's just that the flower cloth is too bright, so just keep it for your sister to make new clothes. Now your sister is about to get married. It's been a long time.
I made her new clothes."
Yue Zhongyao was stunned after hearing this.
I heard Mrs. Liu say again: "Your daughter is first-class in appearance and housekeeping. I see that she is good everywhere, so why should I worry about it? My daughter is good at needlework.
, I also got a piece of cloth in the past few days, and I asked her to make new clothes for Xiaoman when I get back, which can be regarded as her wish."
After hearing this, Mrs. Wu laughed so hard that she couldn't see her eyes, and said modestly: "Oh, how did this happen? I don't know where this girl got such good luck. I see that Mei Niang is very handy..."
Yue Zhongyao looked at his mother, who was pulling Mrs. Liu and Liu Meiniang to talk affectionately. He opened his mouth and walked out with a frustrated look on his face.
Liu Meiniang looked at his turned back and frowned.
When Yue Zhongyao left the main room, he saw Dong Gen in the courtyard, holding a few pieces of cake and eating happily. He grabbed several pieces in both hands and stuffed his mouth full, for fear that if he ate slowly, it would be gone.
Next to them, Beishu and Linglong were also grabbing cakes and candies and stuffing them into their mouths.
Yue Zhongyao twitched the corner of his mouth, turned around and entered the room. He threw himself on the bed and closed his eyes tiredly...
