Mrs. Chen was scrubbing Tian Huaide's feet while observing his expression. Unexpectedly, Tian Huaide had a gloomy face and hit the kang hard with a hammer.
"My enemy, why are you doing this?" Mrs. Chen was shocked when she saw it. She took his hand and looked at it and said, "Look, it's red."
"Nothing." Tian Huaide was very impressed by Chen's concern, so he pulled her up, fell down on the kang together, and said, "I'm feeling depressed, please stay with me and talk."
"What on earth is going on?" Mrs. Chen grabbed the cotton handkerchief and wiped his feet dry, then moved the wooden basin to one side, straightened herself a little, and then leaned back on the kang.
"Mom wants me to take Erniu and his family to Henghe." Tian Huaide said with a gloomy face.
"What?" When Mrs. Chen heard this, she sat up from the kang and her eyes widened.
"Keep your voice down." Tian Huaide quickly sat up and covered her mouth.
Mrs. Chen opened his hand and asked angrily: "Then you agreed?"
"Is this acceptable?" Tian Huaide glanced at her angrily and said in a low voice: "The second and third bedrooms are already troublesome enough, and with the addition of the second girl, why should I be an official?"
Mrs. Chen breathed a sigh of relief after getting the confidence and said, "You really scared the living daylights out of me."
Erniu, the youngest daughter of Mr. Tian and the Jiang family, was the most beloved daughter of the Jiang family. She married into a family named Yang who owned a cloth shop in the town. She originally lived a good life, but because of
The son-in-law's business was not good, so he opened several cloth stores in the town. The competition suddenly became fierce, and life became tight.
I heard from Mr. Jiang that the Yang family originally wanted to close the cloth shop and start other businesses, but they didn’t have much capital. The family only had a son, Yang Dayong, who was not a good businessman. He would beat his wife and children when he lost the business.
Erniu cried several times when she came back and said she couldn't go on anymore. When she saw the bruises on her daughter's arms, Jiang felt very distressed and naturally scolded her son-in-law for eighteen generations.
Now that Tian Huaide has obtained an official position, the Jiang family suddenly became active. Thinking about the life of the old girl, he thought of letting the boss take him to Henghe, so that Yang Dayong would not beat or scold him easily for the sake of his uncle.
, you still have to provide for it well.
"How could she be like this?" Mrs. Chen listened to the whole story, her face turned dark, and she scolded with dissatisfaction: "You are an official alone, and when you have a big family, you still don't laugh to death? Do you think any official is such a drag on his family?
Really? It doesn’t make people laugh out loud.”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Chen glanced at Tian Huaide's face again. Seeing his gloomy face, she leaned over again and said: "We finally got the wealth and honor, why can they get it for nothing?
Most of them went? Take the third room for example. We had agreed to let Yan Yatou marry Governor Tan’s silly son, but what happened later? We took such a big detour and almost ended up in trouble. If I hadn’t gone there so shamelessly.
Mrs. Tan said all the good things and promised my niece, but this official, huh, I don’t know where he is yet? It’s good for him, he’s here to share half of the wealth.”
"I know, I know how good you are." Tian Huaide hugged her, thought for a while and said, "I see the third child's attitude and he doesn't want to follow us, but I really want to separate and live alone."
"Hmph! Who knows? Girl Zhuang also said that she is afraid of retreating in order to advance." Ms. Chen sneered and said: "If this is really the case, then he is more motive than the second child. I looked at Min
That girl Yan fell into the river for a while, but her brain became brighter, and she was so evil."
Mrs. Chen shuddered when she thought of the scene that day when Tian Minyan held a kitchen knife and said menacingly that she wanted to chop someone.
"Well, the third child can't do it, right?" Tian Huaide was a little hesitant, but seeing Chen's eyebrows raised again, he said repeatedly: "Don't worry, he has always been honest and can't make trouble, but I'm bothered by the second child.
Home."
When she mentioned the second-bedroom family, Mrs. Chen fell silent again. That family, compared to the honest third-bedroom family, made her so sick that she couldn't eat. Whenever she thought about living with that family, she felt a stabbing pain in her forehead.
.
"You have to think of a way." Mrs. Chen pushed his body and said gloomily.
"Dad, I'm so sad about that." Tian Huaide turned over and said gloomily.
"If we come back with a lot of money, will they give it up? Are they willing to join us and squeeze into such a small courtyard?" Mrs. Chen said urgently.
"It's not like you don't know about the second brother."
Mrs. Chen was silent again, pursed her lips tightly, thinking of her second son's face, rogue, frivolous, and the way he looked at her several times, which made her feel hairy. She looked at Tian Huaide's back and hesitated to speak.
.
"Go to sleep, go over there at most, and let's buy a big yard and move out." Tian Huaide also drank a lot tonight, and he felt drunk and felt sleepy.
Mrs. Chen muttered something next to him, but seeing that he didn't respond, she couldn't help but angrily pulled the quilt over and fell asleep without mentioning it.
The moon was rising above the willow branches, and the cold moonlight shone into the wing at the north end of the main house.
Panting, Tian Huaixiao fell off Mr. Li's body, spread his legs wide and fell on the kang, breathing heavily.
Mrs. Li sat up from the kang, and while tying her clothes, she spanked the things that Tian Huaixiao had ruined. She looked at him and said, "I ate a few cups of cat urine tonight, and I feel really good."
Although her tone was accusatory, there was a sense of contentment in her eyes. In the past, this devil was running around like a bull, but now he seemed to be a different person. He was punishing her to the death, which was not enough.
Tian Huaixiao snorted, pulled the quilt to cover himself, closed his eyes and did not answer.
"I'm sleeping, I'm talking to you." Seeing that he didn't respond, Mrs. Li pushed him again.
"I'm tired." Tian Huaixiao hummed from his throat.
Of course he knew what was going on tonight. People are in high spirits when happy events happen. My sister-in-law, Mrs. Chen, wore a new set of clothes today and had two glasses of wine. Her face was really more beautiful than a flower. She looked like that just now.
In one scene, he imagined Mr. Li as Mr. Chen.
"I'm telling you, you have to be careful with me these days, so that the two of you can give me eye drops. Otherwise, huh, let alone being a master, you'll be useless." Naturally, Mrs. Li didn't know what he was thinking.
He walked in a crooked way, pointed to the east wing, curled his lips and said, "I looked at it coldly, sister-in-law and the others don't want us to go to Henghe."
"He doesn't dare." Tian Huaixiao moved and hummed: "He really dares to do this, hum. He is barefoot and is not afraid of wearing shoes. If he shouts to go out, everyone will not feel better."
"They are much more successful than you." Mrs. Li deliberately provoked him: "Don't talk about other things, they know more words than you. To count you, it's just a matter of my little finger."
"I told him he didn't dare." Tian Huaixiao turned over and sat up and roared.
Li was startled, and when she realized what she was doing, she slapped him in the face: "You are seeking death, you are so loud, who are you showing off to?"
"It's just you who's so verbose." Tian Huaixiao glared at her and lay down again, but Li's words got into his heart. Starting from tomorrow, he will really follow the old man closely.
Li didn't know what he was thinking, so she muttered a few words and fell asleep. It was just that several people were worried and worried, and each had his or her own agenda.
