That day when she went to the banker's house, although she didn't suffer any injuries, her wretched appearance was seen by many people on the way back. She always had a good face, and it was only for her to talk about others, so how could she let others look at her?
It's a joke. So I haven't talked about visiting the yard for the past two days. I can't even bother to go out to my own room, the bed is scarce, and every meal is brought to the bedside by my wife.
At noon, all the men in the family who had gone out to work came back, and now they gathered around the table to eat.
"Mom, you are feeling better today. Have you had any soup this morning?" Wang Dazhi was very filial and asked his wife as soon as he came back.
"I'm still lying on the bed. I feel unwell and have a headache and backache." Mrs. Lin arranged the dishes and chopsticks on the table and served food to the men on the table.
It is said to be rice, but it is stewed with multigrain brown rice, served with fried cabbage and pickled melon on the table. It is a makeshift meal and can fill your stomach.
"Then I need to get some nutritious food for my mother."
Wang Da asked his wife to go to the henhouse to find an egg, break some sugar cubes and give Aunt Wang a sugar-watered egg.
Old man Wang and Wang Er were eating rice from their rice bowls, mumbling without saying a word. The little girl of the Wang family heard her father talk about making sweetened eggs. Although she was very greedy, she didn't dare to ask for it. On the contrary, Wang San
I took my chopsticks and rummaged through the dishes, but I didn't see any meat, so I almost dropped my chopsticks.
"Mom is not sick, but she is angry. Why should she eat sugar-watered eggs? There are not many chickens at home, and we are reluctant to feed them. It is difficult to lay eggs. How can we waste the eggs that we have saved so easily? Why don't we waste them like this?
I'll take it to the town and sell it, and I can get some meat back."
"Third brother! What are you talking about! If it hadn't been for you, how could I still be lying in bed and unable to get up!" Wang Da felt angry when he saw that his younger brother was not as sensible and filial as his own girl.
Wang San had been ridiculed for the past two days and felt unhappy. He was worried that he had nowhere to vent his anger. At this time, Wang Da said something again, which made him feel angry.
"Dad hasn't spoken yet, and you're here yelling at me. Who do you think you are?"
"I'm your eldest brother!" Wang slapped the bowl down and stood up. The stools behind him were pushed back by his violent movements, making a sharp and harsh "squeak" sound.
"You, what do you want to do? Do you still want to hit me?!" Wang San was a little scared at first, but when he saw his elder brother just breathing heavily and looking at him, he didn't make any move. He saw that his father and second brother only ate from themselves.
Fan didn't look here at all, but became emboldened, "That's right! You useless coward, what else can you do besides farming! If you say that Mom got angry and got sick because of me, then you can tell me, I made Mom
Why are you so idle?"
"You still have the nerve to ask!" Wang Da was so angry with this younger brother that his chest heaved violently. He suppressed the urge to beat up the bastard in front of him who was looking at him with his eyes hanging and his mouth crooked, so he spoke: "
Tell me! Did you have the unreasonable desire to marry the banker's girl?"
"So what? The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, so why can't she propose marriage?"
"Why don't you look at you like this? You are lazy and lazy all day long. You are always lazy, and only your mother can spoil you!"
"Then if you have the ability, why don't you let your mother spoil you?" Wang Sanqi said, "I don't have the ability. Why don't you hope that your brother will be well and marry a capable wife?"
Wang Da couldn't even curse. The third brother's reputation was spread throughout the village. He was molesting girls and cheating on people. If the woman hadn't swallowed her anger and didn't report it to the official, and the family had provided money as compensation, he would have been raped long ago.
The reporting officer caught him, how could he still have the chance to bark at me here!
"you!"
Wang's wife, Mrs. Lin, had just put the sweetened eggs into a coarse porcelain bowl and brought them to the back room. As soon as she opened the door, she heard her husband and her brother-in-law arguing.
"Hurry up and be gentle, please listen to me." She reminded in a low voice, holding the bowl and shaking her head at the two people who were at war with each other.
Wang Da then remembered that his mother was still lying down. Although he was angry, he forced himself to sit down and continue eating. Wang San, however, raised his head, looking like a scoundrel who had nothing to do with me.
Unexpectedly, before Lin made any move, the door to the back room opened.
Aunt Wang held on to the door frame and looked straight at the family sitting around the table. Finally her eyes rested on Wang Da and asked, "What did you just say?"
Wang Da didn't know what his mother meant, but he was worried that the old man would get up and hurt herself again, so he hurriedly walked up and helped her arm.
"What did you just say? How did you know that San'er wanted to marry the banker's girl?"
Wang Da thought of the few words he had heard outside in the past two days and was afraid that his mother would be uncomfortable if he said them. At this time, he lowered his head like a gourd with a sawed mouth and said not a word.
Seeing her son's virtue, Aunt Wang suddenly felt bad. She pushed Wang Da's hand that was supporting her, hunched over, walked to the dining table and sat down. She looked at the other people and waited.
Ask them to explain.
But Wang San didn't know anything. He hadn't been running around with his friends these days, but he didn't know what was wrong with him. He followed Zhuang Keqing every day, from sunrise to sunset, getting up earlier than the chickens and getting up earlier than the chickens.
The dog slept late, so there was no chance to listen to the gossip of the country women.
Although Old Man Wang and Wang Er have heard a little bit, they both know the temperament of their mother-in-law. If they talk about it now, they may not be able to overturn the meal on the table.
When Aunt Wang saw that everyone was silent and evasive in their eyes, a wave of irritation surged in her heart.
"Okay! Okay! Okay! Now no one cares about what I say, and I have become more capable, ah?"
Wang Da was afraid that his mother would be angry and broke down, so he hurriedly took the sugar-watered eggs from his wife's hand, put them on the table, and pushed them in front of his mother, "Mom, you haven't eaten much in the past two days. First, use some soup to make up for it."
repair."
There was no answer to my question just now, but now I am taking it upon myself to touch the egg? Aunt Wang curled up her lips and sneered, "How can I be so lucky to eat sugar-watered eggs?"
After that, he pushed the bowl back to the house.
Although Aunt Wang was gone, the people still in the main room did not move their chopsticks, as if they had forgotten that they were eating.
It wasn't until "Bang!" a heavy slamming of the door woke everyone up. It was as if a switch had been pressed and everyone immersed themselves in the meal. Even Wang San no longer disliked the lack of meat in the meal.
Not long after lunch, it was the time for the elder sister-in-law and the younger daughter-in-law to sit under the tree in the village every day. Aunt Wang combed her hair and washed her face, put on a clean shirt, tidied herself up, and grabbed a handful from home.
The wild grapes obtained in Zishan are out the door.
Her feet felt like wind, and she completely lost the dejection she felt lying in the room a few days ago.
You idiots, just don't tell me! Can't I go find out for myself? I want to see what bad things these bitches can say about me!
