Super cute daughter-in-law

Chapter 81 Yingzi
Seeing that Yangliu seemed to want to turn around and go home, Xiaoye and Xiaocao immediately held one of Yangliu's arms, and pulled Yangliu forward.

Xiaoye rolled her eyes and said helplessly, "Hey, big sister, you are so smart, do you really believe in these things?"

"If Niang is really that powerful, why doesn't she invite us every time we ask her to invite our dead master? After all, it's not just to make money. This skill is just to deceive others. How can our own family do it? Believe it all."

Xiaocao thought for a while, blinked her eyes and asked Xiaoye: "Is it really a lie? Then why can my mother say it accurately every time, and when people come to ask the fairy, my mother's voice changes, which is different from usual. .”

Xiaoye scratched her head, and didn't know how to explain it well, so she waved her hand at Xiaocao: "Every child asks so much why so much, you just need to know that mother is earning money for the family."

Xiaocao nodded and remained silent, and Yang Liu didn't ask any more questions, no matter whether she believed in ghosts and gods in the world, since her mother was in this business, she couldn't hold her back or criticize her.

Isn't there a saying that a son does not dislike his mother's ugliness? This is what is being said.

What's more, her mother has been carrying the family's livelihood with her thin shoulders all these years. What they can do as children is to try their best to change the family situation so that their parents can enjoy their old age in peace.

The sisters walked forward for a while, and suddenly saw Xiaocao standing still at the gate of a yard, calling inside: "Sister Yingzi, are you home?"

"Yes, who is it?" Someone in the courtyard responded.

A while later, a girl of fifteen or sixteen came out from the yard. The girl looked pretty, with two thick braids on her chest. When she saw Xiaocao, she immediately greeted her with a smile: "Xiao Cao!" Grass, why are you here?"

Seeing Xiaoye and Yangliu behind Xiaocao, she hurried over again, looked at Yangliu and asked with a smile, "Xiaoye, who is the girl beside you?"

Xiaoye grinned, walked two steps towards Yingzi with Yangliu on her arm, and asked Yingzi to take a good look at Yangliu to see if she could guess who it was.
Yingzi looked at it for a while, but still couldn't recognize it. They looked at Yang and Liu and shook their heads.

Xiaoye laughed and said, "Sister Yingzi, don't you remember? This is my elder sister. She knew about your engagement with elder brother, so she came back from her husband's house specially."

Hearing this, Yingzi looked at Yang Liu in disbelief, and said with a smile, "This is Liu Er? The change is really great. I remember that she didn't look like this when she was a child, but she looks really handsome when she grows up."
This Yingzi looked like a simple and dignified girl. Yang Liu had a good first impression of her, and she thought they were all from the same village. Yangliu and Yingzi must have known each other before, so she teased Yingzi in a familiar tone: "Sister Yingzi will be handsome when she grows up. My elder brother praises you for your good looks every day at home."

Hearing this, Yingzi was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed loudly: "Stop teasing me, I have known him for more than ten years with that elm head of your elder brother, and he has never praised me for being good-looking. If he If you can really say such nice words, I would have married her long ago."

Yang Liu quite liked Yingzi's straightforward character, so she giggled, "Hey, sister Yingzi really wants to marry into my house?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Yingzi shot her a look, then asked again: "By the way, are you here to chat with me today or is there something else?"

Only then did Yang Liu think about the business, and hurriedly said: "By the way, Miss Yingzi, if you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten it. It was my mother and my grandmother who asked us to come here, saying that we would go to the street today to buy things for you and your elder brother to be engaged. By the way, I call you to go with me, and you can also help me choose together, lest you don’t like what we bought when you get it.”

When it comes to getting engaged, Yingzi is a little shy, and she has a faint expression: "Those things, you just buy them as you see them, as long as they don't cost too much, and you think they can be used, how can there be a woman who buys them together?" Reasonable, it's against the rules."

When Yang Liu said this, he actually wanted to test Yingzi in his heart. Regarding the dowry, the Manxiu family and Yingzi's parents also came to make trouble, and Yang Liu wanted to know what Yingzi's attitude was.

After all, Yingzi will marry her eldest brother, the eldest daughter-in-law of their Yang family. To a large extent, Yingzi's character determines what kind of life their Yang family will live in the future.

Now it seems that Manxiu's family was responsible for proposing those excessive betrothal gifts, and Yingzi's parents were just instigated by him. Looking at what Yingzi said, I know that Yingzi's family is not greedy and insatiable. , Yang Liu was a little relieved.

Therefore, she stepped forward and pulled Yingzi with a smile: "Sister Yingzi, we will be a family soon, don't talk about two different families, this thing is bought for your use, it's best for you to go with it, it doesn't cost money Yu can also buy some practical things, besides, you and my elder brother have been together for so many years, why do you have to follow the rules in everything?"

Yingzi is a straightforward person, she thought about it, then smiled and agreed, she called Yang Liu and the others to come in and sit down, saying that she would go back to the room to change clothes, and explain to her family.

Xiaoye said that it's getting late, don't waste time, let Yingzi hurry up, they just wait here.

Being idle and bored, Yang Liu took a random look at Yingzi's house. It seemed that Yingzi's house was much poorer than his own. Anyway, his house was built of blue bricks, and the roof was also tiled.

But Yingzi's house is all built with adobe, just like the adobe bricks Cao and Yang Mancang said yesterday that ordinary people build pigsty. Although the roofs of several houses are also covered with tiles, looking at the roofs It is estimated that the tiles are only paved with straw, and as long as it rains, the water in the house may flow into a river.

Yang Liu took advantage of the opportunity to look at the families next to Yingzi's. Some of them looked better than Yingzi's, but most of them were about the same.
This village looks much smaller than Baihe Village. It is estimated that there are only forty or fifty families living in the whole village. Judging by the quality of the houses, the life of people in this village is much worse than that of Baihe Village as a whole.

Seeing Yangliu staring around at the houses in the village, Xiaoye smiled and asked: "Sister, you come back every year, and our village hasn't changed much in the past few years. You should remember these things."

"Well, I remember." After finishing speaking, Yang Liu tentatively asked again: "I just feel strange, I have been away for so many years, why does it seem that no one has built a new house in the village?"

Xiaoye sighed: "Where is the money to build a house? Many people's families can't even have enough to eat. If our family didn't rely on mother to earn some money, we probably wouldn't have enough to eat."

"Why is this happening?"

Xiaoye let out a long sigh like an adult again, and talked about some things that happened in the village these years: "Oh, it's not the flood that happened a few years ago. You know that our side is low-lying, and the river is very close. , The river dam is low, and the government doesn’t care about it. In the year of the flood, our village was flooded, and all the houses in the village were flooded.”
"After the water receded, everyone's houses were abandoned, and every family had to rely on adobe brick houses to live. Hey, sister Yingzi and the others still built them at that time to live today."

"Our whole family also lived in that mud-brick house a few years ago. Later, my mother felt that the house was dark and damp, and my grandmother was sick every day, and my father's broken leg often relapsed. My mother was afraid. If we continued to live, the family couldn’t bear it anymore, so they tried to earn money for the family, and when they got some money, they built a new house.”

"The village is flooded like this, and the government doesn't care?" Yang Liu asked.
"Well, that year, the villages in the ten miles and eight villages around us were flooded, and the government couldn't control it. Every household sent some money for disaster relief, but the money was at most enough for the whole family to eat porridge and drink. How can you afford to build a house for a couple of months?"

Yang Liu nodded, people in ancient times had a low standard of living, and the government system was naturally not as perfect as in the previous life. The resources of the government were not enough, and there were some officials who were corrupt and bribed. Naturally, the resources could not be compared with the previous life, Xiaoye This is also true, it would be nice if the government can control the food.
After a pause, Xiaoye saw that Yangliu was silent, and continued: "Mother used to pray for peace talismans in the earth temple in the village when she was free. I’ve done it all, what counts as a horoscope, showing people Feng Shui, and asking immortals.”

As Yang Liu, who has been living in a honeypot in her previous life and living in a small landlord's house in this life, she really can't imagine how hard it is to live like that. She always thought that although life in her natal family was not as good as that of the Bai family Should be good too.

I really didn't expect that the family has been so difficult these years. Even though she didn't belong here a few years ago, listening to Xiaoye's words made her heart ache.
Yang Liu rubbed her slightly sore nose, put her arms around Xiao Ye and said, "It's over in the past, don't worry about it in the future, big sister will let you live a good life."

Xiaoye nodded obediently, hugged Yang Liu's arm and said, "Well, I believe in eldest sister."

Xiaocao on the side also rushed over, hugging Yang Liu's other arm, and said with a smile, "I also believe in elder sister." After a while, she raised her head again, blinked and asked, "When the days are better, elder sister Can you cook meat for us every day?"
Yang Liu smiled "puchi": "I want to eat meat, don't wait for better days, let's go to the town to sell meat today, and I will make meat slices for you to eat."

When Xiaocao heard it, she nodded with joy, but after a while, she asked Yangliu with hesitation, "Sister, do you still make meat slices?"

"Do you want to eat?" Yang Liu asked with a smile.
Xiaocao seemed to be recalling the taste of the sliced ​​boiled meat that she ate yesterday, and she smacked her lips unsatisfied, but soon she said with a sullen face: "That food is delicious, but the meat is too expensive. More than ten words, if all the tofu is replaced, we can buy a board. Our family has not eaten meat for a long time. My mother is willing to buy two because she saw you and your brother-in-law coming back recently, and to entertain the people who work at home. Back to the meat."
