On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times
Chapter 168
After County Magistrate Chen heard this, he decided to go back on his word: "My son's marriage can be regarded as a matter of the inner family, and your mother has to make the decision."
He also gave an example and explained: "Just like your eldest brother's marriage, it is your mother who makes the decision."
Even if he doesn't care about family status, he doesn't want his son to marry a girl whose real father is still working hard, and a big family can open a small restaurant and live in poverty.
Especially the eldest daughter-in-law has a good family background, but the second daughter-in-law has such a family background. Can the sisters-in-law have a common language?
"I believe in your mother's vision. You must also be filial and don't make your mother angry."
Oops, I am really too smart. I put the blame on my wife and ignore my own business.
The main reason is that he didn't expect his son's taste to be so bad, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed so happily in the first place.
Hey, it's obviously his own son, why didn't he learn from his shrewdness? Don’t have any luck of your own?
At this time, Chen Yibin didn't expect that his own father wanted to go back on his word. He accepted it humbly: "Dad is right. I just want to tell him first. If dad agrees, I will talk to my mother."
For such a big thing, my father must agree before I can talk to my mother.
After hearing this, Mrs. Chen was stunned: "..."
Although she was urging him to get married, was it too fast?
Or is she still dreaming?
Seeing that she was in a daze, Chen Yibin coughed lightly: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
"Ah," Mrs. Chen suddenly came back to her senses: "This matter needs to be discussed with your father and your aunt."
She also said very straightforwardly: "I am willing to be beautiful as an adult, but I am afraid that your aunt will misunderstand me and think that I deliberately chose a daughter-in-law for you who cannot help you."
She sighed: "You still have to be cautious about marriage. If you feel sorry for the girl, you can use money to make up for it."
If you think she is out of place after marrying into the family, that will be ruining the family.
"Can you promise that you will be good to her for the rest of your life? You don't know how to read, don't know how to manage the house, and don't know how to socialize. Maybe you have other shortcomings that you don't know about."
"Marriage is not something you can decide on a whim or a whim."
Chen Yibin: Getting married is really troublesome.
I can't go to propose marriage today, and I have to write three letters and six etiquettes. How can I have so much time at home?
In a few days, he will be busy. Will he be able to come back in the second half of the year? In other words, he still doesn't know if he will be able to come back in the second half of the year.
He repented decisively: "Mom, why don't you help me prepare a generous gift for the Xiao family?"
This was obviously Mrs. Chen's goal, but she didn't expect it to be achieved so easily, which made her feel very unfulfilled.
This made her feel a little regretful, feeling that instead of beating up the mandarin ducks, she should just agree.
The next morning, Xiao Dalang drove the mule cart to deliver fresh vegetables to the other two inns.
In addition to a cart of fresh vegetables, he also brought two young boys.
Yesterday, the third sister asked him to bring two young men from the countryside to replace them.
Nowadays, if country people can find work in the city, it will be very respectable, so it is easy for Xiao Dalang to find people.
Fortunately, Xiao Dalang now spends a lot of time interacting with people in the village, and he has some understanding of everyone's temperament.
The small restaurant does not do business in the morning, so the Xiao family has not come over yet.
Xiao Dalang can also arrange them well: "You guys carry the vegetables down, and the next one will go with me to fetch water, and the other will start washing the vegetables."
After a while, Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Wu came over. Seeing that they were working quickly, they felt quite satisfied.
Besides, people have already been found, so even if they are dissatisfied, there is nothing they can do. With two boys, Xiao Xiu and the others simply worked at home, but Xiao Xiao would also take Lin Long and Xiao Sanlang around in restaurants.
Two days later, Mrs. Chen also sent a gift of apology, which was some heavy fabrics and some silver jewelry that the girl could wear.
They were preparing to make some thick clothes, and this gift was considered a gift to their hearts.
Xiao Lian lovingly stroked the various dazzling fabrics in begonia color, aqua blue, imperial concubine color, lotus root color, hibiscus color, smoky purple, and pomegranate red. Her eyes almost went straight: "Mrs. Chen is really too generous. Now, I really don’t mind it at all.”
I really didn't expect such a good thing to happen. I defeated the second young master, and Mrs. Chen gave me so many thanks.
She wished she could come back more often.
Xiao Xiao understood her thoughts very well: "Mrs. Chen is quite generous."
I would be willing to do it myself.
It's a pity that I can't say this, otherwise my mother will definitely nag me.
It’s late September in a blink of an eye.
"My father and uncle will be back tomorrow." After Xiao Dalang had lunch, he discussed with his family: "I will pick them up after lunch tomorrow."
Now the three Xiao sisters and the Lin sisters don't often go to small restaurants, so they just make lunch at home.
Of course Mrs. Xiao and the others are fine with having to cook one less dish, and they will all come home for dinner at the end of noon.
Mrs. Xiao now has her own career, so she doesn't miss her two troubled sons so much. She was surprised when she heard this: "A month has passed so quickly?"
Wu was also a little nervous: "When they come back, will they go to the restaurant to help, or will they help at home? Or just let them go out to do business with Da Lang?"
Now she has no intention of doing her old job: selling pork.
You have to walk through the streets to collect pig hair, kill the pigs, and clean the intestines. It really stinks and you don't make much money.
She prefers her current job, cooking in the small kitchen at noon and evening, and can smell the aroma of meat filling the room.
I can still eat well, have chicken, duck, and fish in exchange, and the most important thing is that I can still have monthly money.
She was worried that when her husband and uncle came back, they would come to steal her job.
Xiao Dalang was indeed looking forward to their return.
Having my father and uncle at home is like having a backbone.
However, this does not mean that he is willing to let his father and uncle take over his job: "I am already familiar with running in nearby villages and don't need anyone's help."
"Besides, our family only has one mule cart. Even if they are uncles and they want to do business, there is no other mule cart."
Old Man Xiao said: "Don't worry, wait until they come back."
He was worried that if he continued talking, his family would want to kick the two brothers out.
Mrs. Liu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was looking forward to the return of Boss Xiao. With him watching over the counter, there wouldn't be those annoying people rolling their eyes at her.
She really would rather help in the kitchen than behind the counter collecting cash.
But because she knew that some customers, after eating two ounces of yellow soup, would not keep their mouth shut and say some random things, she was even more unwilling to let her daughters collect money.
