Peasant girls seek happiness

Chapter 5

Only then did the old lady snort softly, and pointed at Cheng Er: "From now on, take care of your daughter-in-law and girl, and if this happens again, get the hell out of me! Our Cheng family is a small family, and we can't tolerate such a dark and heartbroken one!"

This is the most important sentence the old lady said.

It is because of the causes that Qu and Cheng Jiaojiao had planted before that this time it bears fruit.

Cheng Er was beaten, and his face was full of shame: "Mother, it's the son who is useless and didn't take care of his wife and children..."

He wanted to say more, but the old lady waved her hands and said with a cold face: "Second brother, I have heard your mother so many times over the years. I thought about it before, for the sake of family harmony, your face, and your father. He only cares about face, and he is afraid that people will say that he is partial, so I put up with it.

But it’s been a long time and you don’t remember it. Everyone in the family has read the book, but you didn’t read it yourself...

Since he was selected as a scholar, rice and tax-free money are enough for him to study. "

She sighed and waved her hand: "You should think about it for yourself if this is the case! Parents are old, and the biggest desire in this life is to see your eldest brother succeed, and to honor our old Cheng family. Don't think we are partial to our parents. If any of your children can also be admitted to the scholar and earn face for our old Cheng family, then your father and I will pay for him too!

Isn't our family not at this point... Second child, after what happened to you, if your daughter-in-law makes trouble again in the future, be careful that your parents don't care about face..."

She didn't go any further, but Cheng Er's heart skipped a beat.

Today, I completely annoyed my parents.

"Mother, don't worry, I will take care of them!"

No matter how much you say, it's better to do well, the old lady didn't bother to say any more, she went to the kitchen to look around, arranged dinner, and went back to the house to take care of the old man.

Cheng Chuqi stood in front of the window, listening to everything outside, let out a long breath.

Fortunately, the old lady took advantage of this opportunity to have an outburst. Qu Shi and Cheng Jiaojiao didn't have a long memory and would stir up wind and rain in the future. The dawn is about to be seen. Cheng Er is not stupid, and he will definitely restrain the two women firmly and prevent them from acting like moths again.

What's more, she didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that Cheng Jiaojiao seemed to be full of malice towards them...

Just as Qu turned the corner of the room, her second son, Yun Xiu, came back from the toilet and met her. She grabbed his arm and said, "Where are you going? Follow me to clean up the vegetable garden."

Little bastard, you haven't settled the account with him yet, want to run away?Can you run?
There was Yunxiu's squeaking and screaming sound from the backyard, but the few people in the yard didn't seem to hear it, and they were used to it.

For dinner, it was rare for Cheng's table to have meat on holidays and important days.

The main room is large, with a screen in the middle. Inside is the sleeping old man with his five sons and the two grandsons of the second bedroom.

At the outside table are the old lady with her daughter-in-law, youngest daughter, and other grandchildren.

Although Yunxiu is two years older than Yunhui, one is the second son of the second house, and the other is the eldest son of the first house, so their status is naturally different.One still sat at the usual outside table, and the other sat at the lower head of his father as before.

Cheng Chuqi felt a little weird.

You say that the Cheng family is a big family, but there are no rules, and there is no big brother-in-law who doesn't talk to his brothers and daughters-in-law, and women who don't see other men. Just like farmers, they don't have any servants. The Cheng family does the housework and even most of the farm work by themselves.

But if you want to say that the Cheng family is not a big family, sometimes the rules are quite ridiculous. For example, now, it is understandable that there are many people sharing tables, but it seems ridiculous and redundant to set up a screen in the middle.

Cheng Chuqi looked around and saw that he was quite satisfied without Cheng Jiaojiao, so he saw Yunxiu secretly packed two big cakes and walked out quietly.

Yunxiu helped her today, she didn't want to embarrass her, but when she thought that this big pancake was for Cheng Jiaojiao...

She took a step forward and held him pretending not to know, "Second brother, are you taking this pancake to eat out? There is meat today, don't you want to eat it?"

The Cheng family had plenty of food, but the kitchen didn't make less food for Cheng Jiaojiao just because she was punished for eating.

During the fine meal, everyone would secretly save the meal. This was a tacit understanding between each other, and no one expected Cheng Chuqi to expose it like this.

Yunxiu faltered: "Eat... eat..."

That's meat, you can't just give Jiaojiao a meal, right?What's more, it's obviously her fault, this is the punishment given to her by grandma...

And today's flatbread is mixed with half of the white flour, and a little bit of bean flour and sorghum flour, which is more delicious than the usual one with only a little white flour.Yunxiu was still a little guilty before, but he straightened his back after thinking about it, and whispered: "My mother asked me to secretly deliver food to Jiaojiao, so stop me."

Chu Qi understood, held him and did not let go, looked back at the old lady and said loudly: "Then why are you going out?"

After talking too much, he shouted again, and his throat hurt a little.

Seeing this, Qu came over to pull her: "Si girl, I'll let your second brother go back to the house..."

She snapped back before she finished speaking, "Then ask Second Brother to put down the cake, I'm afraid he will send it to Cheng Jiaojiao!"

Chu Qi said bluntly that she didn't want to learn from the Cheng family's previous way of doing things: make peace with each other!
I just let you know how dissatisfied I am with Cheng Jiaojiao!

Mrs. Qu was scolded, and the old lady said coldly, "If you want to feed the third girl, then don't eat your meal."

Qu Shi hurriedly apologized with a smile, "No, that's what, it's Yunxiu who loves his own girl..."

After all, Cheng Jiaojiao was hungry all night, but the first day of the seventh day did not end well, the old lady gave her a cold face the whole time.

Maybe in the bottom of the old lady's heart, she felt that this granddaughter could talk, but she was annoying.

Chu Qi also knew that in this big family, the most unofficial people were the old man and the old lady.

But she has her limits.

Back in the room, Xiucai's father tapped her forehead reproachfully, with a very helpless tone.

"You girl, it's not good to be unreasonable like this, in the future~" But what happened in the future stopped in her flattering laughter.

This talented father really loves children!
Cheng Da and his wife felt a little helpless when talking about their youngest daughter, "Now that you can talk, why do you have a grown-up mind? How do you think she knew that Yunxiu was going to deliver food to Jiaojiao?"

Yang said angrily: "Chu Qi can speak, but she just refuses to speak."

Cheng Da responded with a good temper: "Yes, she can talk. Hey, tell me, who is she following? Not like you or me..."

Yang felt that she was a bit like an old lady, and she whispered: "I think it's good for her to be like this, so that she won't be bullied." If she is like her, I don't know how much anger I will suffer!
Cheng Da was silent, and after a while he said, "You're right, it's better as it is."

How depressed and difficult Yang's life has been these years, he, the husband, knows best, because he brought all of this to her.

Yang couldn't bear to see him blame himself like this, so she quickly changed the subject, "By the way, Mother will prepare six dishes tomorrow, and I don't know how many people will come, is there enough to eat?"

She went to the village to buy meat, and happened to meet someone from the same village who had just returned from the county, and told him that his classmate Chen Xiucai would come home tomorrow.

"If he is alone, four dishes will be enough." Cheng Da was also a little puzzled, "We have already discussed the day to go to Fucheng, is there any change?"

In the second room, Qu's was feeling distressed while rubbing Cheng Jiaojiao's knee with medicine and wine, while cursing Cheng Chuqi in a low voice, "You little mute who broke his heart..."

Hearing the sound of the door opening, she looked up to see Cheng Er coming in, she hummed and lowered her head, and continued to scold: "She should be dumb all her life..."

Cheng Er scolded impatiently: "Shut up! You've offended this man with a broken mouth all day long."

Qu Shi was not convinced, she put down the medicinal wine in her hand and was about to argue with him, Cheng Jiaojiao hurriedly pulled her back, "Mom~It hurts~"

Qu Shi hurriedly called out "Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao" to re-apply the medicine, and said angrily: "Mother is too cruel, she only has eyes for Dafang!"
