Teach my brother-in-law

Chapter 79.Uncle Daohu

Sitting in the garden, Xiao Yuanwai looked at the servants and maids coming and going, and felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart. People who have lived to this point can be regarded as consummated merits and virtues. The only shortcoming is the eldest son of his family. Let Xiao Yuanwai feel at ease. The two sons of the Xiao family, the youngest son Xiao Xiaoshui, has achieved fame and embarked on an official career, bringing countless prosperity and wealth to the family. Whoever saw me, Yuanwai Xiao, didn't just nod and bow.The only shortcoming is that the eldest son of his family makes Yuanwai Xiao feel at ease. The eldest son Xiao Datian was born abnormal. He couldn't read when he was five years old, and he staggered when he was eight years old. Now he is an adult man in his 20s. I can't even settle the basic bills, and I often get sick. That sickness is foaming at the mouth, and my mind is not clear. I have invited countless doctors and said that I can't get a doctor.

In the end, Xiao Datian seldom went out, playing and playing with the old lady, handymen, and girls in the yard all day long.

"My lord, the tea is cold!" A girl stood behind Xiao Yuanwai and said softly. The girl has beautiful features, articulate, thirteen years old, her skin is as radiant as snow, her eyes are like a pool of clear water, and her appearance is extremely beautiful. , really like a pearl halo, beautiful jade shining, there is a bookish air between the brows and eyes, although the delicate and elegant little face is flushed with peach cheeks, and the sandalwood mouth is pink and tender, which inevitably attracts reverie, but because the figure is still very thin, it makes people feel uncomfortable. She will be 15 years old in a few months, and she looks childish, at most she has the innocent appearance of a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl.She is Yun'er, the eldest daughter of Lu Cai's family, and has moved into Xiao's house for two years. Tomorrow is the day she leaves Xiao's house. Yun'er, who is secretly looking forward to returning home as soon as possible, is even more cautious in doing things.I'm afraid that anything wrong will cause dissatisfaction with the master of the Xiao family and postpone the return home.

"Yun'er, you've been at my Xiao's house for two years. Are you doing well?" Xiao Yuanwai glanced sideways as soon as he heard the girl behind him. The daughter-in-law has grown into this appearance, and this little face can be squeezed out of water, and she can't help but make a small calculation in her heart, her eldest son Xiao Datian just happened to be unmarried.And this young girl from the Lu family happened to be unmarried, so the two families had an in-law relationship. Although Changtian is a bit of a problem, but with such a big business as my Xiao family, Lu must be the only kid with such a good life. will also agree.It’s just that if we don’t agree with Xiao, there’s nothing we can do about it. Whenever he thinks of Xiao Yuanwai, his eyeballs keep rolling.

"Back to the master, everything is going well for Yun'er at Xiao's house, thanks to the blessing of the master, Yun'er is very grateful, tomorrow is the day when Yun'er returns home. Thank you for the care of the past two years, master..." Yun Yun'er is not a person who doesn't understand etiquette, Yun'er still understands the etiquette of being a person and teaching the family.Besides, I can go home tomorrow, and I can see my parents and two younger brothers. The happiness in my heart is self-evident.

"Yun'er, the master asks you, if you continue to stay in my Xiao's family to enjoy the blessings, have you ever thought about it?" Xiao Yuanwai asked, his eyes often wandering on Yun'er.

"Go back to the master. Yun'er misses her father, mother and two younger brothers, and hopes that the master will let Yun'er go home. Yun'er is grateful for today's kindness!" Allow yourself to visit family members in the same village, and you can go home tomorrow. Those who have daughters who don't want their parents.

"Hmph! Yun'er, you have been enjoying good food and spicy food in my Xiao's family for two years, but now you are talking like this... I have made up my mind to keep you to be our family's wife. I will discuss this matter with your father." Lu Cai has already agreed, you can wait at my Xiao's house with peace of mind, and then I will ask Uncle Xiao in the village to choose an ecliptic day to go to your house to make a marriage, which is considered to be a final decision..." Xiao Yuanwai's youngest son was a big family in the village before he was in high school. Now that the youngest son, Xiao Xiaoshui, is an official, this big Xiao family has become Xiao Yuanwai, and his speech is not as friendly as before. There will inevitably be some pointing fingers When paddling, he even beat and scolded the handyman girl sometimes.

"Master, please let Yun'er go..." When Yuner thought of Xiao Datian's appearance, she quickly knelt down and begged.

It's a pity that Xiao Yuanwai is no longer the original Xiao family. Now Xiao Yuanwai has a son who is an official outside, so he speaks louder and does things more boldly. Today, Yun'er unexpectedly Dare to contradict me Xiao Yuanwai.

"Old Fu, lock Yun'er up for me..." Officer Xiao overturned the tea bowl on the table and pointed at Yun'er. Lao Fu is the housekeeper of the Xiao family, and he was number one in the town before The rascal who ate and drank was taken home by member Xiao, and began to take care of some unscrupulous things. Later, he gained the trust of member Xiao and became the housekeeper of the Xiao family. Hearing about the matter outside the staff, he ran faster than a rabbit, and came towards Yun'er with two house slaves.

Yun'er didn't expect that Xiao Yuanwai, who usually had a smile on his face, would suddenly turn his back on him. He couldn't control his body, and his face turned pale. But the unhappiness in his heart dissipated when he thought that he could leave Xiao's house tomorrow. At the thought of being able to leave the mansion tomorrow, Yun'er felt that it didn't matter if she was wronged a little bit.

???????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????

Sixty miles east of Datong, there is a lake named Dao Lake. There is a fishing village beside Datong Lake. This is a very rare place in the northwest. The lake is surrounded by green plants. The running water from the west passes through Dao Lake. Then go down the lake and head towards the Yellow River.

Daohu has raised the villagers of several nearby villages. Uncle Lu Cai, a fisherman, got up very early. In the past two days, his eyelids have been twitching all the time. They say that left jumping is rich and right jumping is a disaster. Today, the right eye is jumping non-stop. Is there something wrong? Things happened, and with this thought in my mind, I was a little slower to clean up the fishing rods and other miscellaneous items.

The weather was not as clear as yesterday, and there were still some dark clouds at the edge of the sky. The weather became oppressive, and it looked like it was going to rain. Uncle Cai sighed and stopped what he was doing, and pulled out his waist I took a few puffs from the hookah with shredded tobacco and lit it. If this continues, I will not be able to survive this day.There is a child and his mother lying on the bed in the room. Once the disease starts, it will never end. It has been more than ten days and she has not got out of bed. She just lies on the bed and hums to and fro. Two days ago, I invited the doctor to come over to see , The doctor said that it was a deficiency of Qi and blood, and he needed to rest for a long time. When the doctor left, he asked Uncle Cai to let his wife rest more, and don't go to work in the fields every day, otherwise Hua Tuo would not be able to be saved when the Qi and blood hit the heart.

The family has no money to spend. The day before yesterday, I went down to grab medicine and used all the hundreds of Wen I saved from fishing last month. In the end, it was not enough, so Uncle Cai gritted his teeth and sold a small fishing boat at home. In exchange for a few taels of scattered silver, he took the medicine back. Unfortunately, the child is still unable to live in the land, so he can't go to the fields to do farm work. When he thinks of the rent that will be handed in at the end of the year, Uncle Cai wants to curse. , Li Dahu from the east family, Xiao Yuanwai from the west family, Liu Lizheng from the north family, no need to scold the south family, our family and other fishermen who make a living from fishing live in the south family, everyone's life is going well Uncle Cai knew very well what happened.

The fishermen who have been soaking in the lake for a long time also know that the lake looks calm and the waves may turn into strong winds and waves in less than a quarter of an hour, so they burn some incense by the lake for safety before going out to fish. He lit up and worshiped a few more times before boarding the fishing boat. Not far away, Zhou Xing, who also made a living from fishing, said loudly: "Brother Caizi, the weather is not good today, so it's better not to go out of the boat, and wait at home." Wait, isn’t my sister-in-law sick these two days? Talented brother, listen to my brother’s words, don’t go out on the boat today...” It’s not that Lu Caishu doesn’t know Zhou Xing’s words, but when he thinks about the child’s mother lying on the bed at home, , the two crying babies by the bed, and the big daughter-in-law who was working as a maid at Yuan Xiao's family were flustered.

The eldest daughter of the Lu family is fifteen years old, just at the age of youth. Two years ago, her mother was seriously ill, and she didn’t have enough money to see a doctor. When she was at a loss for what to do, member Xiao from the same village sent a housekeeper. After talking about it, it is said that the money needed for the illness of the Lu family's wife will be paid by his Xiao family, but the Lu family needs to sell the big daughter Yun'er to the Xiao family for two years as a maid. The yellow and thin girl on the bed, finally endured the pain in her heart and sold the big daughter Yun'er to the Xiao family for two years. The two-year period was supposed to expire tomorrow, but the housekeeper of Xiao Yuan's family came again and said, What did the daughter-in-law of the Lu family break a few sets of tea sets in the Xiao family, which were worth five taels of silver when combined, so she had to exchange them for five taels of silver, or the older daughter of the Lu family would work in the Xiao family for another five years.

Uncle Cai knows that his daughter-in-law is not the kind of ignorant person, but what can Uncle Cai do when facing Yuanwai Xiao's family? In his eyes, he was already an unattainable high-ranking official. The housekeeper brought the words and went back. Uncle Cai knew let alone five taels of silver, and now he couldn't even get five cents on him. When he thought of his eldest daughter 12 He entered Xiao's house at the age of two years, and after two years of hard work, he still had to pay him five taels of silver. Uncle Cai was so angry that he lay on the bed for most of the day.

Thinking of this, Uncle Cai gritted his teeth, put the fishing back on the fishing boat, started the boat and paddled towards the center of the lake. Soon the sky became dark and heavy rain was about to fall.

Knife Lake is a slender lake, probably more than ten miles long from west to east, and less than one mile wide at the end.The fishing boats on Daohu Lake are very old, and they seem to capsize at any time in the strong wind. Uncle Cai carefully rowed the boat close to the water inlet on the west bank. There are often scenes of fish going up the water, especially in this kind of depressing weather. The fish in the water will be more excited to swim upstream into the water.

I hope there will be a good harvest today, Uncle Cai thought secretly.At this time, there was only his fishing boat on the lake, and Uncle Cai carefully avoided the branches floating down the lake, and at the same time, he saw some better wood and took it into the boat. After all, the family still needed firewood.

At this time, at the water inlet, a black object caught Uncle Cai's attention. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
