The first peasant daughter of the green garden

Chapter 16
After a while, the mother-in-law came over with two girls, "Madam said she didn't have a good rest last night, and she will let you go over at dinner time."

Li Caiwei took the clothes and wanted to say thank you, but she didn't know how to address her, "I want to ask how to address you?" "You can call me Wang Ma." "Thank you Wang Ma." Wang Ma has served his wife Yu for many years, She is also the mother in charge of the girls, and Wang Ma is basically responsible for many things. "If you need anything in the future, just tell me, and I will try my best to satisfy you." Wang Ma left the room with a few girls.

I simply washed up and changed my clothes.He changed out of the rough cloth clothes he had before, and put on a pair of half-new red water sleeves. After washing his hair, he looked much cleaner.

After half an hour, a rough envoy came over with food.

The mother-in-law brought out the food and put it on the table. Seeing that she was old, Li Caiwei took the initiative to help. Presumably, the mother-in-law deliberately poured out half a bowl of hot soup, and the hot soup just poured all on her arm.After a while, the arm immediately turned red.

The woman said I'm sorry perfunctorily, but Li Caiwei waved her hand and said it's okay.

Li Caiwei endured the pain and finished the meal, the woman cleaned up the dishes, "You are here to be a child bride, do you know what a child bride is for?"

Li Caiwei shook her head, just came here, it's better to be careful in everything.I finally got married, so don't ruin your parents' reputation because of yourself.

"The child bride is here to work." The woman looked at the clothes she just changed with sharp eyes, "You wash the clothes later, and I will ask someone to take you to see the eldest wife after washing."

Li Caiwei nodded, "I want to ask where is the laundry place?"

The mother-in-law showed her the way.

Li Caiwei turned here and there according to her mother-in-law's instructions, and finally arrived at a well. At this moment, two maidservants in coarse clothes were fetching water. Seeing her coming, they glanced at each other.

Li Caiwei didn't want to ask any more questions, so she hurriedly finished the laundry and went to see her future mother-in-law later, hoping she wasn't an evil mother-in-law.

"That's the child bride?"

"Yeah, she looks pretty good-looking, why did she get married?"

"Keep your voice down, if Wang Ma hears it, she won't tear your mouth apart."

"So what if I heard it, how many girls have been mentioned, and they all turned yellow in the end. It's not like you don't know that our son is a fool. I think this one must run away!"

"That's right, look at her delicate skin and tender flesh, she doesn't look like she has done farm work!"

"Stop talking, Mother Wang is here." The two maids hurried away carrying the water.

Li Caiwei got up quickly, "Wang Ma."

Wang Ma looked at the clothes she washed with sharp eyes. The clothes were neatly placed in the basin. The clothes looked very clean. After taking a bath, she looked good. You go to see the old lady."

"Yes." Li Caiwei put down her clothes, followed Wang Ma, and stopped in front of a Buddhist hall.Li Caiwei wondered for a moment, what does this mean?
"The old lady will stay here for a while at this time every day, and you will wait here."

Li Caiwei stood waiting in front of the Buddhist hall holding hands.

Several bouquets of crabapple flowers beside the Buddhist hall were in bloom, and a faint fragrance wafted through the whole garden.A few crabapple flowers were blown down by the wind, just falling on her head and clothes, and a few strands of crabapple in her hair made her skin white and red.

An hour passed, and her legs were a little numb. She looked around and found no one.Why is the old lady still not coming out?Li Caiwei was a little anxious.But Wang Ma ordered not to wander around, so she could only wait here.

At this time, the door of the Buddhist hall opened, and a gray-haired old lady came out from inside.

Li Caiwei went immediately, bowed her head and said, "Hi Ma'am."

The old lady Yu knew that she was standing outside, but she hadn't seen her getting impatient or leaving after so long. According to Wang Ma's intention, this child is quite suitable for her son, and she should be able to take good care of her son. .

"What's your name?"

"Li Caiwei."

Yu Shi took her to the place where he ate, and has been looking at her since just now.

Li Caiwei looked a little uncomfortable.

"Wang Ma, bring her food." He asked, "I've heard a little about you, but I don't mind, but there is a rule, since you are married into the Liu family, you can't leave here without my permission." .”

"But I'm worried about my parents. We're not in good health. I think I'll go and see them when I have time."

"If something happens to your parents, there will be your elder brother. You are now a member of the Liu family. If I see you running back without permission, you will be punished according to family law."

"After a while, my brother is going to marry a wife, and I want to go back once."

Mrs. Yu didn't speak, "Let's talk about it later."

Li Caiwei carefully picked up the vegetables and ate.She is unfamiliar with the place, and she doesn't know anything about this place, and this old lady doesn't seem so easy to get along with.

After finally finishing the meal, Mrs. Yu asked Wang Ma to ask her son to come and see his wife.

When Li Caiwei heard this, she suddenly became nervous.She is about to meet her husband?

Yu ordered someone to bring some melon seeds and peanuts, and asked Li Caiwei to sit next to him.Li Caiwei tried her best to calm down her nervous mood. Mrs. Yu asked about the situation at home, and Li Caiwei answered truthfully.But what was even more nervous in her heart was, what does her husband look like, and what should she say the first time they meet?
After a while, Wang Ma came back.

Seeing that there was no one behind Wang Ma, Mrs Yu knew what her son meant. "Since he won't come to see his wife, then the daughter-in-law will go to see him!"

"Caiwei, this kid Jiacheng just doesn't want to contact outsiders, and he has no other intentions, but he's a bit guilty. From now on, you should take better care of your husband."

"I will."

Mrs Yu asked Madam Wang to prepare some things for the servant girls to hold.Li Caiwei followed Wang Ma, went out from the back door of Liu's yard, walked along the mountain road for a while, and stopped in front of a broken thatched cottage.

Li Caiwei raised her head and took a look at the thatched cottage, it was better than she imagined, the walls were made of bamboo, it was quite strong, at least she didn't have to worry about the rain and wind.

"My wife ordered us to deliver it here. You take the things and go in by yourself. We will go back first." Wang Ma handed the things to Li Caiwei, and Li Caiwei took the things.A question arises in my heart, who lives here, why don't Wang Ma and the maids go in?But no matter how afraid I am, it is my husband after all, so I still have to go in!

Wang Ma gave her the oil lamp, and whispered to her when she left: "Our young master is afraid of strangers, if he has anything to do at night, you just follow him, don't resist, you understand?"
