Ming Lan’s arm secretly used force, bent her elbow, gently pulled off Mrs. Cao’s palm, turned sideways slightly, and avoided, secretly wondering in her heart that Mrs. Cao and Mother He are two sisters, how could one look vulgar The village woman? Another side of the eye, I saw Hemu’s face turned awkwardly red and white, but she could only watch her sister make a fool of herself; Cao Jinxiu kept her head down, Minglan glanced carefully, only to see her slightly skin color. Black, with a windy and frosty face, and also a thin and supportive actress, the complexion is really not good.
Because it is a guest, the He family can’t say anything, so Mrs. Cao became more and more proud, and turned to the old lady Sheng: “I heard my sister say that the old lady and my sister’s mother-in-law are the best handkerchiefs. , I’m not too embarrassed. Our Jin’er and my nephew Hong, have grown up together since they were childhood sweethearts. It’s not like I’m boasting. When our family left Beijing, Hong Hong chased after crying. Calling Jin’er! With such affection, we Jiner naturally…”
Ms. He’s face has changed, she put the tea bowl on the table heavily, and there was a crisp sound, and the bowl cover had been broken on the coffee table. The second wife and mother He knew that her mother-in-law’s temperament was fine. At the time, they were hearty and love to talk and laugh, but when they became angry, they were so hot that even the old lady dared to scold them. They immediately stood aside in fright.
Ms. He was very angry, but smiled on her face. She slowly pulled out a lapis lazuli hairpin carved with the words “Fu and Shou” from her head, put it on the coffee table, pointed and said: “Madam, I always think Send Jin’er this child a hairpin. Today, while everyone is here, if the aunt doesn’t dislike it, please take it.”
Mrs. Cao was stunned, and then overjoyed, she stepped forward, reached out and took the hairpin, gestured and praised repeatedly, Mrs. He had a strange smile on her face, and slowly said: Hairpin, turn around and ask Jin’er to tie her hair up; this dress should also be changed, and the women who don’t have it are still dressed as girls!”
As soon as this statement came out, the hall was like a silent thunder, and Cao Jinxiu raised his head fiercely, with tears in his eyes, like a piece of wood on the ground, he could not move; the hall The expressions of the crowd changed suddenly.
With a ‘bang’, Mrs. Cao panicked and dropped the hairpin to the ground, breaking it in two. Mrs. He turned her head, and sneered at the pale and dead Mother He: “It seems that your sister can’t look down on my hairpin!”
He’s mother also trembled in fright, she went to see Mrs. Cao in disbelief, her eyes were full of surprise, Mrs. Cao avoided her sister’s eyes, gritted her teeth secretly, and then forced her smile back to the old man. The man laughed and said, “The old lady is mistaken, my Jin’er hasn’t come out yet…” Madam He waved her hand to cut off her words, and grabbed Cao Jinxiu’s wrist next to her, with three fingers clasping her veins. Then stared at Mrs. Cao and smiled coldly.
Mrs. Cao horribly remembered that her sister had said that Mrs. He had studied medicine since childhood, and she could guess whether a woman was a girl or a woman. If she had a pulse, she could not hide anything. Thinking of this, she suddenly sweated down, and went to see her sister at a loss, only to see that she was also desperate.
Seeing this situation, He’s mother is already transparent. Her mother-in-law was afraid that she was suspicious early in the morning, but she did not break her face because of this, but now she said it in front of the grandparents of the Sheng family and the second wife, not only outward A clear statement is an indirect expression of strong dissatisfaction with the Cao family. Her mother was young and widowed, and she was able to live steadily in the past ten years. She raised He Hongwen and became a talent. Her mother-in-law was very helpful. She has always admired Mrs. He since she was very angry. Now that she is very angry, she is also scared.
Next, everyone didn’t want to enjoy the flowers anymore. Mrs. Sheng confessed that she was not in good health, she took Minglan and said goodbye. Mrs. He took her hand and said a few words, Mrs. He Er all the way. When they arrived at the door, they were full of apologies, and they packed the pre-prepared summer medicinal herbs in the cage, and then said goodbye respectfully.
After getting on the carriage, the grandfather and grandson were speechless for a long time.
Ming Lan lowered her head and thought. When she first met Mrs. He, she only thought that the old man was very straightforward and very easy to talk. But now that she thought about it, Mrs. He was very happy when he was young, and Ji concubine was also quite a lot. Ten years later, I have no children, but now I am an old husband and wife, and Mrs. He even took hold of the family. When he said that he was separated, he would be separated. He said that he would have as much property as his mother and son. The daughter-in-law has nothing to say, and leads a very comfortable life.
When I saw her today, I was a killer. How could such a person be easy? The inner house is like an arena of exquisite forbearance. Those who can survive in the end are not born with good luck like Yu Yanran’s grandmother, but they have two children!
After a while, Minglan sighed and said: “Fortunately, the He family grandmother is here.”
The old lady Sheng had a deep look, her eyes flashed inconspicuously: “The two families accept the marriage, it’s that you love me, everyone is happy, it depends on the pressure of the elderly, and it’s not a good marriage, let’s see. Well, I don’t know what Hongwen **** means…”
At this time, He’s mother was standing in the old woman’s room in panic. There were only two people, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, and the doors and windows were closed. The room was a bit sultry, but He’s mother still felt a chill in her vest.
“You’re faint!” Old woman He slapped her hand on the coffee table, and the cup on top jumped, “You know what I mean, and you also told the Cao family about the visit today! What’s your heart? Do you really want Jin’er to be a daughter-in-law?”
He’s mother looked flustered and shook her hand quickly: “No, no, I like Minglan’s child very much, how come…” She said that her eyes were hot, and she choked up, “But sister she kept begging me , I just… the only one left in my wife’s family!”
“You!” The old woman He was annoyed and scolded: “It’s just soft-hearted! I’m going to make it clear to you today. Our He family is not like the poor and loves the rich. If the Cao family committed a crime Before, he let his daughter and Hongwen brother decide the marriage, but now it is ridiculed, and I also recognize this grandson-in-law! But don’t forget, it was their Cao family who rejected you orphans and widows and did not rely on them. At that time, the Cao’s family was very big, and they kept saying that they wanted to marry their girls! Huh! Now it’s good, their family is ruined and down, but I think of you, a girl, and a nephew, Hongwen!”
Speaking of this, the old woman He raised her voice and said angrily: “Especially hateful is that they dare to deceive my family. They are obviously not finished, they want to hide from the sky! It’s really hateful!”
He mother sobbed, and intermittently said: “Sister Shicai told me that when they were in Liangzhou, their family really couldn’t make it through. They were forced to be helpless. Jin’er only became concubines with the military officer. I am amnesty for the world in just a few months, and now the Cao family regrets it!”
“So what?” The old woman He stared. “They wishful thinking and deliberately deceived behind. Do you really want to accept your sister’s wishes and ask such a shabby man to be your son as a wife?”
The widowed mother brought her eldest son, and the hard work she entrusted to her is much greater than that of ordinary mothers. He also has the heart to hope that her son will become a dragon, but she has a weak temperament and soft ears. When her sister cried and begged, her heart became soft. Now The matter broke apart. On one hand, the sisters’ love and the son’s future were on the one hand, and she couldn’t help panicking.
Finally, Mother He wiped her tears and raised her head and said, “Mother, I think it’s better. My daughter-in-law is better than Mingmai!… However, before leaving Shicai, my sister begged me and said that she was called Jin It’s also good to have a partial house; mother, what do you think?”
“Don’t even think about it!” Old woman He slapped her on the table again, gritted her teeth while talking, but looked at Mother He with a frightened face, she quickly pityed this young widow daughter-in-law, and let her be soft. The voice said, “Daughter-in-law, think about it, the Sheng family’s marriage is the best. Your father-in-law is getting older, and you will be paying official duties in a few days. By then, your father-in-law and I will not be back to your home in Baishitan. , Is to go up with his uncle; who do you call Hongwen to rely on? I am content to find a Yue family to rely on for him! We can’t climb the daughters of high-ranking families, and those of small families will not Well, ordinary people’s concubines can’t make it to the table. You have picked it yourself. Is there anything more appropriate than Minglan? Father and brother are both officials in the court, and the family is rich and concubine, although they are concubines, their appearance and temperament are first-class One, she was loved by my father, brother and sister at home, and she was brought up by my old sister. In the future, it will be your single family of three. She can also take care of housework, take care of mother-in-law, and assist husband-in-law! I see. For so many years, Ming girl is the most suitable one. Cao’s family will come out now! Be a concubine? Huh! The wife hasn’t come in yet, but even the concubine’s room is ready. I have no face to go with my old sister. !”
Mother He asked her mother-in-law to say her heartbeat, she slowly wiped away her tears, and said in a daze: “Mother said so badly, but…what about Jin’er?”
The old woman He said coldly: “She has her own parents, you are just an aunt, so don’t worry about it! Find a house, give it to the family, find errands, all you need to help, it’s hard to get it The Cao’s family for life? Also, you will stitch my fingers together! I divided a generous share of the family business from the boss and the second child to your orphans and widows. I will set up a family for Brother Hong in the future, not asking you to go. Supplement the Cao family. Son and Cao family, you divide the importance! The Cao family has men, sons, hands and feet. Is it possible that the family can’t support the He family? In this world, there is only emergency rescue, no poverty relief! This It’s okay for me to take charge of the property for you in a moment. When I die, if you don’t find a reliable grandson, if you don’t find a reliable granddaughter, you may have all the surnames Cao! I’ll tell you everything clearly. , It is you who begs your daughter-in-law, think about it yourself!”
These words were very harsh and implied. Mother Ho was shocked, knowing what she meant, she didn’t dare to say anything.
