Abandoned Daughter's Beautiful Pastoral

Chapter 39 A farce

Mrs. Zhao came out of the back room with a stern face, and saw Zhang Xiaocao standing and chatting with him, she was no longer her daughter, and she pointed at her and scolded her like before: "You bastard, why don't you hurry up?" Help wash the vegetables, stand here and die!"

Those people were startled by Mrs. Zhao's yelling and cursing. Hearing this, they couldn't help curling their lips, thinking that he was your long-term worker!
Zhang Xiaocao was not angry at all when she heard the words, she just smiled coldly, and just as she was about to speak, Grandma Zhang stepped forward to block her, facing Zhao's finger, and said coldly: "You sold her to me!" Me, if you scold her like this, do you scold me for getting in your way? If you don't want us to come, don't let your own man come to my house to call guests!"

Grandma Zhang is Zhao's elder, she is not polite at all when talking to Zhao!
Grandma Zhang's words reminded Mrs. Zhao, causing her face to be distorted. She twitched the corners of her mouth and stared at the grass behind her, but she didn't make a sound. She could point at the younger generation and scold the elders of the same clan, otherwise, Haven't been cast aside to death yet?He just said unwillingly: "She sold it to you, and she is also my daughter!"

Grandma Zhang gave her a sarcasm, and said, "Ask someone who understands, is she still your daughter?"

It is a fool to satirize Mrs. Zhao in the words!

Zhao choked, and looked at Grandma Zhang viciously, but didn't make a sound.

Grandma Zhang snorted coldly, ignored her, turned her head and said to Zhang Xiaocao: "Grandma 'bought' you, only grandma can beat you and scold you, whoever dares to scold you in the future, you can scold back, grandma will give you call the shots!"

Zhang Xiaocao nodded fiercely, and said loudly: "Granddaughter knows! Granddaughter knows, so grandma is reluctant to beat and scold granddaughter. Grandma treats granddaughter very well. She not only buys new clothes, but also feeds granddaughter. Granddaughter has gained weight. Woolen cloth!"

This childish remark made Grandma Zhang laugh out loud, and the women laughed too. After looking at Xiaocao, they really felt that her face had grown flesh, and she didn't want to be as disheveled as before. It can be seen that she left the Zhang family , the day is better.

Everyone's laughter made Zhao almost vomit blood, but he couldn't say anything, let alone beat people like before, but looked at Zhang Xiaocao with resentment, wishing he could eat her.

Zhang Xiaocao looked at her with clear eyes, admiring her distorted expression with pleasure.

This small disturbance soon passed, Grandma Zhang also went to help, and a few people came to help one after another, but Zhang Xiaocao had nothing to do. She wanted to find her sister-in-law Liu, but when she thought She must be too busy to touch the ground now, so she dismissed the idea and helped grandma wash the dishes together.

Not long after, all the relatives in the village who didn't have five clothes came, and Zhao's natal family also came. Although the previous incident made the two families unhappy, it was a happy event after all. If the uncle's family didn't come, it would be terrible. It means breaking off the relationship.

Zhang Xiaocao looked at more than 20 people, old and young, who came in, followed her grandma and greeted them according to the etiquette of the younger generation, never calling "grandpa" or "grandma".

When the old man Zhao and the old lady Zhao heard the names "Grandpa Zhao" and "Grandma Zhao", their faces stiffened for a moment, and they felt embarrassed, but they didn't say anything. Somewhat irritating.

Everyone was exchanging greetings, when there were bursts of firecrackers outside, it turned out that the person who followed the groom to Huang's house to carry the dowry came back.

Here, the day before the bride enters the house, the dowry must be carried to her in-law’s house. For the daughters of the peasant family, the dowry is usually a wardrobe, a quilt, a ruler, pots and pans, etc. Although it looks simple, the inside is also large. There are articles!
Seeing the things brought into the yard and drying them in front of everyone, Mrs. Zhao's face turned black on the spot!

Zhang Xiaocao looked at it, and the corners of her eyes twitched!The Huang family was so noisy at the time, she thought she was really thinking about her daughter, but seeing the small amount and poor quality of the dowry, she felt that the Huang family was purely extorting money.

I saw that the cabinets and boxes are all made of the most common wood. This wood is light and easy to rot, and it hasn't even been painted, so it is most likely to be eaten by moths.

Those rulers are also the cheapest cotton cloth, and there are only two thin quilts. As for the pots and pans, there are only one pair, and they are still dusty earthenware.

The people who came to congratulate all looked at each other, and then started talking with a buzz, saying everything.

Some said that the Huang family was stingy and didn't even provide a decent dowry. They also said that the Zhang family sold their daughter for 15 taels of silver in order to marry such an in-law. It's not worth it...

Zhao, who was originally dissatisfied with Widow Huang's face, was ashen, wishing to go to Huang's house with a kitchen knife.

This woman's dowry is not only her own face, but also that of her husband's family. Mrs. Zhao has been under tremendous pressure recently. When she walked out of the house, she was pointed at by people, saying that she was partial and vicious. She was still thinking about the Huang family. Give her more dowry, give her a long face, and let those gossips shut up, but now, instead of growing her face, she gave her a big mouth, and thinking about the 15 taels of dowry that she had managed to get together, blood suddenly dripped from her heart, and her brain Thousands of ways to torture the Huang family flashed in the memory!

It's a pity that Mrs. Zhao's plan is doomed to shatter. Widow Huang looks cowardly and honest, but she is an out-and-out little white flower. It is almost impossible for Mrs. Zhao to control her!
Mrs. Zhao took a deep breath in her heart. Her dissatisfaction with the Huang family and Widow Huang finally exploded after picking up the bride the next day.

The brothers of the Huang family were getting married, and because they were in-laws, the two brothers were arranged at the head table, but they didn't know whether they intended to cause trouble, or if they really felt that the Zhang family had neglected them. Zhang Baoyin, the bridegroom who toasted at the table, said: "Your Zhang family feeds this kind of dog food to my brothers. Does it mean that you look down on my Huang family? If your family wants to regret the marriage, just say it. My Huang family is not the kind Reasonable!"

When Zhang Baoyin heard it, cold sweat dripped down, and he kept apologizing with a shy face. He was really terrified of this unreasonable brother-in-law.

It's just that the brothers of the Huang family wanted to back up their sister and beat up this brother-in-law on purpose, so how could they let him go so easily?

Mrs. Zhao, who had been sulking in the room for a long time, got unhappy when she heard the news. She rushed out anxiously, with her hips on her hips and her mouth akimbo, and cursed: "My mother's money has been swallowed up by those bastards with a rotten conscience." , I can’t afford those good things, but I can get these things for dogs, and my mother sold the Nian pigs to buy them. If I had known this, it would be better to feed them to the dogs, at least the dogs can wag their tails after eating them!"

None of the Huang family brothers had a good temper. When they heard what Mrs. Zhao said, it didn't matter whether she was an elder or whether she was hosting a wedding. There was a loud bang, and the table was flipped over.

"If your Zhang family has no money to go to your daughter-in-law, don't act like an uncle. How did my sister enter your house? Don't you know? Do you want me to remind you?"
