Seeing her mother-in-law going on like this, Haitang winked at Tian Niu.
Although Tian Niu was usually at a loss for words, she understood this look and immediately held her stomach and said "Ouch, ouch"...
I was quite tired after working for a day, but after being scolded by my mother and standing for an hour, my legs were already numb. I wanted to throw myself on the bed, but when I saw Haitang's eyes, I immediately understood.
"Did you eat something wrong? I'll get you some medicine?" Lamei is also a smart girl. She acts according to the situation and is no worse than Tian Niu. She helps Tian Niu and enters the mute girl's room.
The mute girl had been watching from the window, unable to speak, but knowing clearly in her heart. She came in and quickly asked the two of them to sit down and rest.
"Mute girl, it's your fault that you didn't let my mother stare at you." Tian Niu lowered her thighs and complained to her mother.
Seeing the two people entering the house, Bai Haitang took a chair and asked her mother-in-law to sit down.
She knew very well that the only way to deal with this old lady was to provide guidance and persuasion.
"Do those who open a tavern serve food to the male customers and the female customers? Do the vendors on the street sell to both men and women? The tailors in the shop make clothes for both men and women.
Clothes?" Bai Haitang poured a glass of water for her mother-in-law.
"But they are all men, and they are not afraid of what others will say. You are all a daughter's family, so it is different." The mother-in-law did not appreciate it and continued to quibble.
"Then you are saying that those who sell rouge and gouache are all women. If a man comes to buy it, won't she sell it? Anyone who comes is a guest. Without guests, who will we sell the dyed cloth to? If the cloth cannot be sold, the whole family is not allowed to work in the fields.
At the end of the year, you are begging the old rich man to borrow a few buckets of rice? Can you wear clothes made of this material? Can you bring it with you?
This silver hairpin? Can you live in this big house? Use this furniture made of good wood and good craftsmen? Can everyone in the village support you and like you? Can Datong not have to worry about the cost of living? Can Ertong and Hetian girls be the same?
Don’t be in a hurry to marry, and don’t be in a hurry to marry? Aren’t these all obtained by dyeing cloth?”
Bai Haitang's mother-in-law was speechless and drank the whole bowl of water.
"Mr. Zhang is a clean customer. He bought nine pieces of cloth from us! He also helped the dyeing workshop a lot. The young master from a wealthy family didn't dislike our girl's long hair and short knowledge. It's good for you, but you dislike her. Come back.
Prince's life
I'm so angry that I can't even call someone to bring peace to our family. You still yell so loudly about this ugly family, as if you're afraid that others don't know about it." Bai Haitang added that to deal with her, we need both sticks and carrots.
When it's time to intimidate, intimidate her.
Then I poured another bowl of water for my mother-in-law. I really wanted to pour the water on her head to wake her up.
"Isn't this for the good of our family? Aren't I afraid that others will make irresponsible remarks?" The mother-in-law drank it in aggrieved manner.
"When we are clean, we will be clean. As time goes by, we will naturally see it. Look at the neighbors and so on. Which one is not sincere to us? I see you, don't associate with people like Wang Po, it will easily lead you to bad things."
Bai Haitang said she was tired and quickly sent her mother-in-law to weave. When the old lady was free, she really had nothing to do and made trouble everywhere.
"From now on, if you weave a piece of cloth, the dyeing house will give you two more copper coins to save your personal money. Hush, don't tell others." Bai Haitang warned.
"Really?" As soon as my mother-in-law heard the word "copper coin", the smile on her face was extremely kind.
