The beauty of the lady

Chapter 21 Fighting Back
Zhou Caiyan looks very good-looking, and it also makes the old man and the old lady feel sad. Since she was born, she has never done heavy work. She spends all day doing embroidery work. She is 14 years old now, and she will be ready for marriage in a year. She came to ask for a marriage There are quite a few, but the old lady despises none of them.

In her heart, her little daughter is much better than the talented daughter of the third room. Even if her daughter marries a junior, she still feels that it is a low marriage, so she has never been satisfied.

"What's not there on the mountain is that you are too lazy to catch the third child one by one, but you can't?" Although the old lady's tone was not smooth, there was no displeasure on her expression.

Xu also knew her mother-in-law's temper, if she was really angry, she would definitely not speak so sharply.

Then, she sighed, and said: "You said the third brother is also right. He obviously worked in a restaurant in the town for a year, and at the end of the year, he will send such two free meals to his parents. I don't know if the good things are good. It has been more than a year since I let the younger brother and sister in the family eat it, and I really don’t know if it is a real disease or a fake disease.”

The speaker didn't mean it, but the listener meant it. In addition, Xu said it on purpose. According to the kind of old lady, it's strange not to think too much about it.

The spatula in his hand obviously slowed down, and his expression was pensive.

"Have you visited his house?"

Mrs. Xu frowned secretly, and then said with a smile: "How can my daughter-in-law have such skills? She spends all day cooking or doing embroidery with my sister-in-law. I'm just talking casually."

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't see it." After the old lady Zhou finished speaking, she continued to flip the food in the pot.

"That's right, sister-in-law, let's talk about something happy for the New Year's Eve." Wang said with a smile beside her.

Mrs. Xu turned her head and glared at Mrs. Wang, then fell silent.

In the main room, Zhou Dazhuang looked at Zhou Zhouzhuang, and asked with a smile, "Third brother, how much money have you made this year?"

"It's not much, just because I'm not hungry. Next year, I plan to work hard for another year, and wait for the mother of the child to see a good doctor." The disease can't be delayed.

After the old man heard this, his brows furrowed immediately, and even his inexplicable eyes narrowed.

"What's the matter? I have to save money to find a good doctor. Do you know how much it costs to find a good doctor? Even if you don't prescribe a prescription, it will cost a few taels of silver just to feel the pulse. If you have that spare money, marry a good doctor." How good is your daughter-in-law?"

"You can eat whatever you want, you can't talk nonsense about this."

A cold voice came from the door.

The four big men in the room froze in unison, then the curtain was lifted, and a delicate little girl walked in, who else could it be if it wasn't Zhou Mei.

After walking in, she didn't look at the crowd, but said to Zhou Zhou: "Father, today is New Year's Eve, are you not going home for dinner?"

"Sister Mei, why are you here?" Seeing the old man's gloomy expression that almost dripped water, Zhou Zhouzhuang hurriedly got up and protected his daughter behind him, and then said to old man Zhou: "Father, the child is not sensible, don't worry about it." angry."

"What do you mean by being ignorant? She is seven years old. Listen to what she said just now. Is this the attitude of talking to the elders? Is this what you should say to the elders? Your mother-in-law is a talented girl, that's how she teaches her children ?” Zhou Dazhuang stood up and said aggressively.

"Brother, what you said is wrong. It is precisely because you are a talented daughter that you are so defiant." Zhou Zhuang continued to add fuel.

Zhou Mei ignored those two uncles at all, tugged at his sleeves, and said with a smile: "Father, let's go back, mother is still waiting at home, isn't there still something to give to Aunt Hua?"

"Something? What?" Zhou Zhuang looked back at the woman's smiling expression, and felt that the tension in his heart had eased a lot.

"I'm so cold. I'm going to send some to Aunt Hua. It's getting late. We don't eat. Others want to eat. Let's go, don't make mother wait."

"Oh, okay!" Zhou Zhuang turned his head and said to Mr. Zhou: "Father, let's go back first."

After finishing speaking, he dragged Zhou Mei out, but the next moment, he was stopped by Mr. Zhou.

"Third brother, wait a minute."

"Father, what else do you need?" Zhou Zhou's heart suddenly arose.

"Sister Mei, you haven't taught it well, so you should stay here and let your mother teach it. Now that you are young, you can change your temper. If you are older, you can't change it. How can you marry in the future? Our old man Although the Zhou family is not a scholarly family, it's not too bad in the village, so you can't get a bad reputation for a girl who is vicious and disrespectful to her elders."

Zhou Mei raised her eyebrows slightly, a sneering smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and she didn't speak.

Zhou Zhouzhuang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Father, the child's mother is not in good health, and she is pointing at sister Mei to cook."

"It's okay, I made it at home, and I'll let your sister-in-law deliver it." Mr. Zhou lowered his brows, looking at the pattern on the kang, it seemed that this was already a certainty.

"Father, let's..."

"Third brother, you don't know who our mother is? Take a look at your nephews and nieces, who dares to say such outrageous things? Sister Mei disrespected her elders so much at a young age. How can I do it when I grow up? I see you still should." Tuesday Zhuang said with a smile.

Wednesday Zhuang was immediately in a dilemma. How could he agree? If he keeps his daughter here to learn the rules, it’s a trivial matter. Even if he cooks for his wife every day, he has no complaints, but he can’t bear his daughter’s suffering here. Well, he suffered too much when he was a child, how could he allow his daughter to be bullied by others.

Feeling the pain of holding her hand even harder, but Zhou Mei was not angry, instead there was a hint of affirmation in her smile.

Want her to stay and learn the rules?They really dare, aren't they afraid that it is easy to ask the Buddha and difficult to send the Buddha?
But she really didn't have that free time to spend with them.

"Okay Dad, let's go."

"Sister Mei..." Looking down at his daughter, Wednesday Zhuang was still a little apprehensive.

He has been afraid of his parents since he was a child, so he left without making a clear statement. I really don't know if Shangfang will make things difficult for their mothers when he is not at home.

Zhou Mei also knew what Zhou Zhuang was thinking. After all, in ancient times, filial piety was more important than the sky.

Looking back at Mr. Zhou's gloomy face, he said with a smile: "Mr., let's talk about it. Our family doesn't cause trouble for your family, and you don't come to my house to cause trouble. Our two families will not interfere with each other."

"Presumptuous." Zhou Dazhuang was very arrogant. When she said that about the old man, wasn't she referring to the two of them indirectly? "Your father is from this family, and everyone died."

"Very good!" Zhou Mei's smile became even brighter, but the light in her eyes was terribly cold, making the room that was originally warm and cozy feel like it had dropped to freezing point in an instant.
