The eldest sister of the poor family is unreliable

Chapter 10 Parental Meaning
"Uncle Chen..."

Pi Hou put away his usual idleness, hesitated to speak.

Father Chen waved his hand, unwilling to say more: "Let's go."

"I took the chicken, and I will pay back the money."

Looking at Chen's father who was ordering him to leave, Pihou gritted his teeth, swept Chen Yuanyuan away, left him a self-seeking look, and walked away.

As soon as the leather monkey left, Father Chen walked calmly, and suddenly took the short rattan whip beside him.

This time, Chen Yuanyuan was so shocked that her eyes widened!
"Father... let's have a talk if we have something to say."

"say what?"

"A gentleman uses his mouth but doesn't move his hands. Dad, please put down the whip first..."

Tong Shi on the side was also shocked, and said repeatedly: "Zhengping..."

"Mother, don't worry about this matter, this girl is about to go against the sky recently, she can't do without a lesson!"

After saying that, he waved his whip and walked towards Chen Yuanyuan.

Seeing Chen's father lashing at her with a whip, Chen Yuanyuan's face was green and white with shock, and she hurriedly hid behind Tong Shi: "Grandma, daddy wants to beat me!"

"Mom, get out of the way!"

After Chen's father finished speaking, the stinky girl hid behind the child's mother again.

Chen's father originally only wanted to scare her, but he was really willing to hit her. He didn't want her to admit her mistake obediently and dare to hide here and there.

Chen Yuanyuan grinned as her calf was firmly pressed against the side.

"Chen Zhengping!"

"How dare you call your father by his first name!"

After saying that, Chen's father was already aggressive and wanted to hit him.

Chen Yuanyuan was so frightened that she happened to have a ladder beside her, so she took advantage of the opportunity and climbed up to the eaves. She couldn't bear to look straight at her.

She scolded a thief in her heart!

Whose heroine is like her... It's ashamed and joking, it's really "unsafe at the end of the festival"!
"Smelly girl, come down for me!"

"No way!"

"Do you want me to go up and throw you down!"

"Father, I was really wronged this time, if you don't believe me, ask Yun Sheng."

"Can I beat you up wrong? I won't ask Yun Sheng either, he will suffer later!"

Chen Yunsheng, who was behind him, trembled all over when he heard this, and his small face was full of excitement.

"Father, I really didn't steal the chicken!"

"Whether you stole it or not, were you there at the time?"

"..."

Seeing that the daughter had nothing to say, Father Chen was even more angry: "Didn't I tell you to stay away from the monkey? Did this brat teach you to be bad?"

"...Father, can't I be wrong?"

***
In the afterglow of the setting sun, in a small corner of the Chen Family's courtyard, stood a large and a small.

In the end, Father Chen was not willing to beat someone. He sat aside, looked at the clothes in the tub that hadn't dried yet, and suddenly shook the coat with a big hole in the tub, looking at Chen Yuanyuan who was facing the wall and thinking, hehe!
"Is this the clothes you washed?"

"Father, if you don't get the old one, you won't get the new one. I'll buy you a new one."

"...where are your mother's clothes?"

"Washed away by the water..."

"..."

Chen's mother tugged at the corner of Chen's father's clothes, and waved to him: "That's all, I'll sew it for you."

"Mom, let me help you."

As she said that, Chen Qingqing had already taken the sewing kit.

Mother Chen smiled gratifiedly, and touched Chen Qingqing's cheek again: "Qingqing is good."

Seeing this, Father Chen had no choice but to start a fire and cook.

Tong knew that her son was not good at cooking, so she went to help.

More than one outer shirt was torn, and Mother Chen and Chen Qingqing found rags, and it took them a long time to mend them before sewing them together.

Seeing this, Chen Yuanyuan felt mixed feelings in her heart.

A piece of cloth is about four feet long, and can be used to make a suit of clothes. The cheapest piece of cloth is only a few tens of cash, but a piece of ready-made clothing costs hundreds of cash. Therefore, most people are reluctant to buy ready-made clothes, and almost make their own clothes from the cloth.

With good craftsmanship, the clothes sewn out are naturally hard to buy.

The Chen family was reluctant to buy clothes, and it was only during the Chinese New Year that they seldom used coarse cloth.

A piece of clothing has long been washed and turned white, and has been mended for three years.I live frugally on weekdays, and I am willing to buy ginseng slices for her. I didn’t eat a bite of chicken today, and I lost two hundred coins for nothing...

Chen Yuanyuan pursed her lips and remained silent, but her fingertips dug into her palm.

Before dinner, Father Chen asked the elder and younger to come over for dinner. Although his face was cold the whole time, fortunately he didn't say anything more.

After the meal, the couple said something, and when they fell asleep at night, Mother Chen came to her bedside.

"Mom, what exactly do you want to say?"

Chen's mother hesitated to speak, and finally said: "You are a girl who has not left the court, why do you follow others? There are many good men in this world. Parents will find you a good family. You will live a stable and stable life."

"Who am I following?...following the leather monkey???"

Chen Yuanyuan's face was bewildered. Mother Chen's implication... Was she suspecting that she was having an affair with Pihou?
The corners of Chen Yuanyuan's mouth twitched. She and Pihou had only met three times in general, and at most they were nodding acquaintances.

"Mother, don't think too much, Pihou and I are innocent."

"Don't move your mind!"

Tong Shi also said aside: "Big girl, you have to listen to your mother. This woman marries the wrong man, and she will harm her whole life."

No wonder the elders of Chen's family thought too much. In ancient times, women and men rarely got along. If a girl followed a man behind her, there would be a lot of gossip. Besides, parents would always think deeply.

Mrs. Tong talked with Mrs. Chen for a while before she felt relieved.

After Chen's mother left, Chen Qingqing clung to her.

"Sister, does your leg still hurt?"

The little girl's bright eyes were full of worry, and she said again: "Do you want me to go to the parents' room to get the medicine?"

Chen Yuanyuan shook her head again and again, and said with a smile: "It's okay, but a whip, my sister won't hurt."

The little girl pursed her lips, shook her head again, stretched out her little palm, and lightly touched the wound on her forehead with her fingertips.

The weak and boneless little hands were warm, as if they were careful not to hurt her.

"Sister, Qingqing must work hard to save money and buy the best plaster to remove this scar. In the future, my sister will find a good husband." When she said that, the little girl's face was determined.

The general appearance of a little girl who is no more than 11 years old immediately caused Chen Yuanyuan to chuckle with this appearance of a little ghost.

"My sister doesn't look for Mr. Ruyi, but my sister looks for a good sister."

As she said, she hugged the little girl and crawled into bed, while Tong Shi smiled and shook her head again and again.

next door.

Chen's father and Chen's mother did not fall asleep for a long time. They believed in their daughter, Yuanyuan, who was sensible and self-reliant since she was a child, and would not do such sneaky things.

What worried them was that Aunt Zhang's words...

"Just now I have asked the eldest girl, and she said that the two of them are innocent."

Father Chen was still worried, thinking of that brat Pihou felt inexplicably annoyed, he clenched his fists again and said, "No, I have to find a marriage for her quickly, in case the two of them get in touch again, it will be difficult to communicate with each other. Besides, Mr. Liu It's not a good thing, find a good man to marry, and it will cut off the two people's minds."

"Okay, I'll talk to the matchmaker tomorrow."
