Flowers are expensive

Chapter 76
The women were all staring at Lihua in unison before, but now they are all looking at Du Shi together.Who is not surprised?Whose daughter-in-law ran away to stay in the bamboo forest in a good manner?Du Shi's tongue was instantly knotted: "No... I... I, I, I passed by... from... from the bamboo forest..."

"That's a coincidence. Matchmaker Wu walked out of this room and met you on the back? You didn't wait there on purpose, did you?"

"Who's waiting there?"

"Enough!" Tian Yisheng said with a gloomy face, "Hurry up and get out, or I'll throw you downhill!"

"Look at everyone! Look at everyone!" Mrs. Du jumped angrily, "Tian Yisheng didn't protect my future sister-in-law, but the little hoof. They really have something to do! Sure enough, there is something to do! A man and a woman can what happened..."

Before she finished speaking, Grandma Lin helped Grandpa Tian out of the house. Du Shi's eager words stuck in her throat like swallowing a big walnut, making her whole face purple and blue, completely Scared out!

"Sister-in-law Du, you are so unkind!" Aunt Duan seemed to have noticed some clues, and said angrily, "Where are you lonely and widowed? You have no literary talent, so you always count on your fingers? This yard How many people are there, you can’t count them! Is it really that great that your father-in-law is the village chief? It’s a pleasure to swear at people when you have nothing to do, isn’t it?”

Mrs. Gong took the words, glanced at Mrs. Du disdainfully, and said, "Future sister-in-law? You haven't written off your horoscope, but you really have the face to say these four words! Sister-in-law Du, did you step on cat feces today or hit an evil spirit?" Has the son and daughter-in-law of the bullying grandpa Tian long gone?"

Sister-in-law Xiao naturally wouldn't let her go, if she didn't scold the Jin family severely at this time, she would be a fool!With her hips on her hips, she pointed at Mrs. Du with an upright face and scolded: "You say that Lihua is shameless, and you are going to lose face? I heard that it's not settled yet, so you hurried to train your brother-in-law? Training is also Jin Xiu's business, what kind of business is your sister-in-law in charge of? Does the Jin family marry a daughter or a daughter-in-law?"

Aunt Zhang said in a slightly better tone: "Sister-in-law Du, you are really serious. You yelled without knowing what to do with Yisheng and Lihua. Fortunately, only a few of us heard it. If the whole village is recruited, I'm afraid your father-in-law will beat you again tonight!"

When Du Shi heard this, his complexion was even uglier than before, like a rotten sweet potato that has been stepped on a few times.When she was panicking, Tian Yisheng yelled: "Get out!" She immediately ran away in a panic.

As soon as Mrs. Du left, Man Ting and Hai Tang hurried over.They were also in the flower field, and they heard that the Tian family
There was a bit of movement here, so they rushed over, because Manting knew that Lihua and Moxiang were here.

The women all comforted Lihua and Grandma Lin, and then dispersed.Grandpa Tian's complexion was not very good, as if he was angry.They didn't come out immediately just now, but Grandpa Tian was so angry that he sat on the stool and couldn't catch his breath.

Grandma Lin wanted to help him go in to rest, but he waved his hand and said to Man Ting and Hai Tang, "I'm here anyway, why don't you have a light meal here tonight? Don't be disgusted, I wanted to treat you two to a drink earlier. Sip wine, I often ask you to help me when the farming is busy, okay?"

Man Ting seemed to have sensed what Grandpa Tian meant, nodded and said, "Okay!" Grandpa Tian then smiled, and said to Haitang, "I asked your family Hong Ling to come too, so that everyone can gather at a table to have fun, isn't it?" ?” Haitang readily agreed, and then went back to work in the flower fields with Man Ting.

Grandma Lin supported Grandpa Tian to rest.After Tian Yisheng followed in for a while, he returned to the backyard and said to Lihua and Moxiang, "I'll go to Xie's house, and I'll get it for you when I come back."

"Are you looking for my Zuzu?" Mo Xiang asked.

"Ah."

"I'll go!" Moxiang put down the small wooden beads she was carving and said, "I'll stop by to see Grandpa Tian, ​​and then go to my Zuzu. It's hard to prescribe the right medicine if you don't explain the illness clearly, as my Zuzu said .” She said and ran away quickly.

Tian Yisheng was stunned for a moment, as if Moxiang had never helped him so proactively, and he couldn't react for a while.Lihua looked at him and smiled, picked up a wooden bead on the stone table and said, "I can't see it, Mr. Tian Daxiucai! You are also a master of woodcarving! Did you just stay at home and make this stuff before?" ?” “Yes.” Tian Yisheng continued to work on the small stone mill.

"It's really ingenious! But, I want to ask a question, why is your interest similar to that of Moxiang?" Lihua knew that Moxiang liked woodcarving very much. After she moved into Xie's house, Moxiang started I gave her a beautiful two-layer jewelry box and a string of wooden bead bracelets, all made by Moxiang herself.

"Many people in the village know it." Tian Yisheng replied.

"Master Xiucai," Lihua said while admiring the beads while resting her chin, "to be honest, are you going to die? What are you doing carving wooden beads like an old man?"

"For my grandma."

Lihua glanced at him sideways and asked, "Master Xiucai, have you heard the story of Pinocchio? You tell too many lies, and your nose will grow very, very long. I think your nose is pretty enough. If it is longer, no one will want it. You better tell the truth! Otherwise, the ghost knows what you think in your heart?" "You don't need to know anyway."

"What about Moxiang?"

Tian Yisheng was startled for a moment, but didn't answer.Lihua threw the wooden beads in her hand and said: "I know, you don't want to marry Jinxiu, it's just to reduce the burden on your grandparents. I have to advise you, never sacrifice your own happiness, because When you sacrifice, you may also sacrifice the happiness of others, and you will become a victim. Master Xiucai, you are so talented, can you understand what I say? Moxiang is a tendon, sometimes click She, she will understand."

"don't know."

"It's not that you don't understand, you're just pretending not to understand."

"You talk too much."

"My dear brother Man Ting has already said that." Li Hua said with a proud smile.

The hammer in Tian Yisheng's hand tilted and almost hit his hand.He looked at Li Hua with a strange look, and Li Hua grinned and said, "Would you like to call you Brother Yi Sheng one day?" "Brother Man Ting can bear you?" .

"Hey, what do you mean? Sister, I'm helping you! Forget it, I've said everything I need to say anyway, think about it for yourself!" Lihua picked up the small carving knife and started playing with it with great interest. .

When Mo Xiang went back to help Grandpa Tian get the medicine, she told Aunt Xie about the dinner at Man Ting and Li Hua Liu Tian's house.She never expected that her grandma would actually ask, "Why didn't you stay for dinner?" Mo Xiang looked at Mrs. Xie with a strange look and said, "Grandpa Tian said so, but I don't want to eat at Tian's." "Why don't you go? People's elders have already invited you. If you don't go, people will think you are so tall!" "Ah?" Mo Xiang's jaw almost fell to the ground.

"Go, why don't you go? Not only are you alone, but also your four uncles and four aunts, your Uncle Haitang and Aunt Hongling? You help get the medicine back and forth, people are grateful to you, you have to accept it Love! Go, go, there is no food for you for dinner, so hurry up!"

"grandmother……"

"Hurry up!" Aunt Xie couldn't help but push Mo Xiang out of the door, then turned around and came back with a smile.

Hearing the sound, Jin Ling'er came out of the house and asked, "Mother, did you send Moxiang to Tian's house for dinner?" Mrs. Xie hurriedly laughed and said, "Don't worry, it was Grandpa Tian who invited the fourth child and Haitang's family to dinner. , I invited Mo Xiang by the way, Grandpa Tian was so kind, how could he refuse? Maybe Man Xiang will find out after a while, so he has to join in the fun."

Jin Ling'er laughed inwardly and said, this is really a piece of pig's head meat, a bunch of thieves are hungry for it!There are rumors in and outside the village that his sister is going to be engaged to Tian Yisheng. This mother-in-law is obviously going to help Moxiang snatch Tian Yisheng, is it still a joke?She thought about it, and said to Aunt Xie: "Mom, you don't have to cook my dinner tonight, my father asked me to go back!"

"Go back? What's the matter?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just about flipping the house at home."

"Oh, then go and ask your grandma, I won't stop you." Jin Ling'er's expression changed instantly, and she asked, "You still want to ask grandma?"

"This is what your grandma said, but you have to ask her whenever you go back to your mother's house, otherwise she will scold others. It's not that I won't help you. You know your grandma's temper. Don't go against her."

"Mom, why don't I just go back to my mother's house for a meal? It's not far away, and I won't need it for an hour. Grandma has never liked me, and she favors my fourth sibling. I'm going to tell her that I will definitely give it to her." Stop it. Mother, you feel sorry for me, I may not have been back for a long time, besides, Man Sheng is here today!"

Aunt Xie thought about it, and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so she nodded and agreed: "Go early and return early, you can't stay at your mother's house for too long. I'll talk to grandma for you."

Jin Ling'er took Mrs. Xie's arm and said coquettishly: "Thank you, mother! After all, it is mother who loves me the most. I will go and return early, so I won't cause you any trouble." That night, Tian's family rarely did this Lively.Because of the thin population and Tian Yisheng's quiet study, the Tian family has been lifeless all year round.Even during the holidays, it is deserted, only the grandparents and grandchildren are at home.

After Manting and Haitang finished work, they went to Tian's house with Hongling.After a while, the monkey Man Xiang also ran over.When there are many people in the yard, the atmosphere is very lively.Grandma Lin went to the kitchen to cook, and Hongling and Lihua followed her to help her.Mo Xiang ran into the kitchen and asked, "Do you want me to help? I am the best at lighting fires!"

"Let's rest," Grandma Lin said with a smile, "It's enough to have your two aunts here."

Lihua turned her head and whispered to her: "Go and have a look at our small stone mill. Once it's done, we can start working tomorrow!"

"Oh, I see, I'll go and have a look!" Mo Xiang turned around and ran out of the kitchen after speaking.She didn't see Tian Yisheng and Man Xiang in the backyard, so she yelled twice, and Man Xiang stuck out her head from Tian Yisheng's room to respond.

Mo Xiang ran to the door of the room, but didn't go in. She stuck her head in and asked, "Why did you bring the stone mill here? Haven't you finished yet?"

"It's almost a little bit, it's always wrong to run in, Yi Sheng is working on it! It's dark outside, so I lighted the lamp and made it here. Didn't the fourth aunt say it? You can't let people see it."

"Oh."

"Come in, what are you doing standing at the door?"

Mo Xiang hesitated, should I go in or not?Tian Yisheng's room is not big, but it looks very clean, just like his fair skin, it is also very tidy, and it is clear at a glance, except for the bed and desk, the most striking thing is the three-layer bookshelf made of bamboo and rattan against the east wall There are a lot of books and scrolls neatly stacked on it.

Compared to her little uncle's messy house, Mo Xiang has to admit that Tian Yisheng loves to clean up.She was really curious about the room, especially about the things on the bookshelf.But she was very hesitant, and glanced at Tian Yisheng who was in front of the desk out of the corner of her eyes, thinking that the master didn't say anything, so she just barged in like this, isn't it good?In case this dead guy lowers his face and drives him out, wouldn't he be ashamed of himself?Still not going in!
Just when Mo Xiang turned around and wanted to leave, Tian Yisheng said suddenly: "Try it yourself and see if it goes well."
