Sweet field peasant woman is delicious

Chapter 18
"Uncle, don't blame yourself too much. We didn't let the news of Zheng Qingqing's escape from marriage leak out. I married another daughter-in-law to replace Miss Zheng Qingqing. I came here this time to hope that uncle will not leak the news, so as not to hurt the face of our two families. Damage." Nancheng said.

Zheng Suo breathed a sigh of relief: "It turned out to be like this. I really thank my in-laws. I will not have a shameless daughter like Zheng Qingqing in the future."

Nan Duofu glared at Nancheng, motioned him to shut up, and said sharply: "Even so, your Zheng family still deceived our Nan family, this matter is not so easy to finish, no matter whether Zheng Qingqing is your daughter now, But she was a member of your Zheng family when she escaped from marriage, so your Zheng family has to be responsible for this matter."

This is how Nancheng heard it. Nan Duofu never thought of returning empty-handed when he came this time. He must pay the Zheng family some money to be reconciled. No wonder he blamed the Zheng family as soon as he came, not mentioning Nancheng looking for another one. Daughter-in-law's replacement.

Zheng Suo couldn't understand the meaning of Nan Duofu's words. Thinking that this matter was his own fault, and it was related to the face of the two families, he said, "Of course we will be responsible." The silver was given to Nan Duofu.

Nan Duofu weighed it in his hand, and snorted coldly: "Let's forget about this time, the daughter-in-law of our Nan family is Zheng Qingqing, so don't say anything to the outside world, or the two families will lose face by then." No wonder I." I thought that Zheng Suo really took his face very seriously, and even gave two taels of silver as soon as he made a move.

Zheng Suo bowed again and again: "That's natural, I'm here to make amends to my in-laws."

Nan Duofu snorted coldly, flung his sleeves and left.As for the two taels of silver he got, naturally none of them fell into Nancheng's hands, but Nancheng didn't care, he never thought that his father would take the initiative to give him the silver, he loves money like his life.

No, even in his son's sloppy marriage, he had to think of a way to make a fortune out of it, but he forgot that when Nancheng got married, he didn't seem to have paid a penny.

The next day, Huzi and his wife showed Anle a sample of the finished washboard. Huzi's carpentry work is really good. She just drew a sketch, and he could make such an exquisite washboard. Anle saw it Feel very satisfied.

Huzi's daughter-in-law said: "I tried washing clothes with this one yesterday. It really saves a lot of effort and it's clean. It will sell well then."

An Le smiled: "Then I will bother you in the future."

Huzi waved his hand: "What trouble is it? We still have to thank you for giving me the money. Today I will start to rush to work, and I will sell it in the market in a few days."

Then he asked again: "Did Brother Cheng go to work in the fields?"

An Le nodded: "Yes, I left early in the morning."

Huzi sighed and said: "Sister-in-law, to be honest, don't blame me. Brother Cheng has always been thankless at home. His parents are too greedy for money, and the eldest brother and sister-in-law are mean. He does all the housework by himself. Two people, get the least."

After these days, An Le still couldn't see it, and sighed, "I don't know." When she thought of how Xianggong came here all these years, her heart ached.

"But it's all right now, brother Cheng married such a good wife like you, those hardships are not in vain, and your life will be better and better in the future." Hu Zi smiled.

Huzi's daughter-in-law pretended to be angry and said: "He, it's good for brother Cheng's daughter-in-law to keep his mouth shut now, I think he will despise me."

Huzi said aggrievedly: "How dare I despise you? Don't you praise her the same way?"

An Le burst out laughing with a "puchi": "Don't make fun of me, I think this product is good, just do it like this, I can't delay for too long, there is still work to do, mother-in-law should scold me soon gone."

"Success, let's go back first." Huzi and his wife didn't want Anle to be scolded, so they packed up their things and left.

An Le thought that he would be able to make money soon, and he felt happy. No matter how much work he did, he would not feel tired anymore. For them, these few pennies are simply life-saving money.

When it was time for dinner, the men in the family came back from the field. An Le was arranging the dishes, but felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird.

Nan Duofu's face was livid, apparently about to lose his temper, and Nan Cheng's face was not very good, as if he was worried about something. Looking at the fourth brother Nan Zhi in the corner who was trembling even walking, An Le was wondering, so he listened Nan Duofu yelled: "Go and burn all the books in your house to me."

An Le trembled in fright, but fortunately Nancheng supported her quickly, and whispered in her ear: "Don't be afraid."

An Le held Nan Cheng's hand tightly, and it was really scary for Nan Duofu to lose his temper.

Nan Zhi was so frightened that he cried: "Father, no, you can't burn my books, I want to test for merit."

Nan Duofu said coldly: "Fame? You have studied for more than ten years, and you are still a child. You have the face to say that you can't even get a scholar."

Nan Zhi cried and knelt on the ground: "I will definitely pass the exam this time, father, please give me another chance."

"Our family has raised you for more than 20 years for nothing. Tell me, what have you done in the past [-] years? You can't lift your hands or shoulders. You just know how to read and study, and you haven't learned anything."

Nan Zhi was at a loss for words. He was indeed quite useless. He was weak since he was a child and could not do strenuous farm work. He wanted to take the exam for fame, but failed repeatedly. At first, his father thought that the exam for fame might be a way out. , but he has failed so many times, my father has given up hope in him, and instead feels that he is a waste of the family's rice.

So he had to go to work in the fields, but today he was plowing in the fields, but he couldn't even pull the plow, and he couldn't lift the load, which made his father very angry.

Mrs. Zhao persuaded from the side: "Why do you have to be so arrogant? This child is not in good health..."

"Shut up." Nan Duofu yelled, he was full of anger now, and he would get angry when he thought of wasting money to raise a trash: "Why did I give birth to such a trash son like you, who is still in his twenties?" You have to rely on your family to support you, and you don’t know how much the books in your house are worth.”

Nan Zhi knelt on the ground and shivered: "Father, dad, I was wrong, I must work hard in the fields, please don't burn my books."

Nan Cheng couldn't stand it any longer. Nan Zhi had a cowardly personality, but he regarded studying as his lifeblood. He hadn't obtained any honors in the exams and had no strength to restrain a chicken. He was often looked down upon by his family.He still had some sympathy for the younger brother, and said, "Father, the fourth child is indeed in poor health, and reading is his only way out, so give him another chance, and don't burn his books."

Nan Duofu glared angrily: "Don't think that you have the right to speak out after doing some work at home, even a daughter-in-law can't control it, it's embarrassing to our Nan family."
