Wearing the cannon fodder little koi in the imperial examination essay

Chapter 47

The two daughters-in-law are both patient, Song Baochang knew very well in his heart, it's just that he is a father-in-law and needs face, so it's not easy to argue with a group of wives, let alone the daughter-in-law who is separated by a layer.

He remained silent, and only looked at the old woman beside him who was picking up meat and vegetables from the dishes. Song Baochang coughed heavily.

Zhou Caihua heard her old man's cough and has been with him for many years. Can she not understand the old man's inner calculation?
Almost at the same voice, Zhou Caihua immediately knew what the old man meant.

The old man cursed secretly in her heart for delaying her meal, but she didn't show it on the face, and slapped the chopsticks on the table heavily. Zhou Caihua glared at Su angrily, and then pointed at Luo Ximei and Zhou Yan and began to curse.

"Okay, one, two, three are all full, right? If you don't eat well, is this a rebellion?"

The old woman attacked indiscriminately. After all, in her opinion, it is wrong for a daughter-in-law to cause trouble and delay her meal. As a mother-in-law, it is natural to stand up.

"mother!"

"Not such a mother!"

"Okay, don't babble, my head hurts from the noise, so get off and eat your meal."

As soon as she showed her power, she was trained. Zhou Caihua is well versed in the great method of teaching a sweet date with a stick. Besides, I delayed this for a while. Lao, if she doesn't hurry up, the broth won't be served.

The stingy Zhou Caihua didn't bother to take care of other things. Anyway, it wasn't her own food that was robbed, so she sent someone away as soon as the reprimand was over.

Luo Ximei and Zhou Yan looked at each other, and there was a tacit understanding at the same time, and the two softened their tone one after another.

"Mother, it's not that the daughter-in-law wants to quarrel with you and father-in-law, it's because there are plenty of meals, and now Erlang's daughter-in-law snatched them all away. Look..."

Zhou Caihua, who was too lazy to talk about it, was afraid that the second son would pick up all the good dishes first, so she hurriedly raised her chopsticks to attack the stew pot. When she heard the two daughter-in-laws still chattering, she didn't lift her head from the pot. Get up, and said a word indifferently.

"You are dead, Erlang's wife is so small, not as tall as your thighs, can you still grab her back?"

Yes, with the old lady's words, Luo Ximei and Zhou Yan's eyes lit up, as if they had received the imperial edict, they looked at Yu Su unkindly, and Yu Su shrank his neck and felt a chill down his spine.

It is not good for me to watch the development of the situation. The old man and the old lady actually want to stand on the sidelines? Yu Su suddenly took two steps back, and simply shrank behind Song Baochang who was holding a glass of Mixi.

"Grandpa, is the Song family too poor to eat? The food in my bowl is not only my own, but also my little brother's. Grandpa, grandma, and my little brother are busy hunting rabbits up the mountain. Make a waistcoat made of rabbit skin for the second elder to honor you, the little brother is so filial, works so hard, and I am so obedient, we are all from the Song family, don’t we deserve to eat?”

This is so serious that no one dares to respond.

Song Baochang was also choked by Yu Su, the wine in the cup was no longer fragrant.

Slamming the cup on the table heavily, Song Baochang narrowed his eyes, stared fiercely at the first two daughter-in-laws, and then turned his gaze back to Yu Su who was looking up at him unkindly.

The former shrank his neck timidly;
The latter remembered what his grandpa Qi had told him, and thought of the urine behavior of the old man in front of him that Grandpa Qi had analyzed with him. Knowing that he had a good face, Yu Su straightened his back and was not afraid at all.

In two-two confrontation, Song Baochang was finally defeated.

Song Baochang, who was annoyed that he was still more stubborn than a hairy girl, was devastated. Facing the stubborn Yu Su, Song Baochang had no choice but to wave her away impatiently after being defeated.

"Okay, eldest daughter-in-law, second daughter-in-law, how old are you, and you still care about a child, what's the matter, is my Lao Song's family short of food for you? Noisy, you know how loud, you have the skills Why don't you cook some more rice?"

Song Baochang reprimanded, and everyone in the main room shut up silently, even Song Silang, who was still howling, didn't dare to cry anymore, and the men at the table finally stopped eating silently.

Luo Ximei and Zhou Yan blushed from the training, they were still angry.

Thinking about how many years they have been in the house, this is the first time they have been taught such a lesson by their father-in-law. It is a small embarrassment and a big grievance.

There has never been such a tacit understanding between the quarrelsome sister-in-law and sister-in-law.

Luo Ximei and Zhou Yan secretly exchanged a look, and they both felt ruthless.

They were unlucky, and they didn't intend to let Su go to make her feel better.

So, Luo Ximei slapped her thigh aggrievedly, and howled first in a very cadenced manner.

"Oh, father, mother, the conscience of heaven and earth... the daughter-in-law is not trying to make a fuss, the daughter-in-law is seeing that the family has a large population and is not rich, father, you and them work hard in the fields, but the harvest is limited every day, everyone eats Not full, the daughter-in-law is stingy and thrifty, who knows that Erlang's daughter-in-law is a child who can't bear the slightest grievance! The daughter-in-law is also thinking about the family, the daughter-in-law is wronged..."

Luo Ximei sang, read, and fought together, and Zhou Yan hurriedly made up the knife.

"Yeah yeah, it's not easy for father, mother, and sister-in-law. We also want to save ourselves a bite so that parents, uncles, and brothers can eat more. How can it be imagined that Erlang's daughter-in-law protects food like this? Daughter-in-law, look, Erlang's daughter-in-law was probably spoiled before, and didn't know the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt. The daughter-in-law also knew that her father-in-law was kind-hearted, and felt sorry for Erlang's daughter-in-law, who had no father or mother. I'm afraid the family won't be able to afford it. How will such a daughter-in-law manage the house in the future, and how will she live on a budget? I'm also doing it for her own good..."

It has to be said that Zhou Yan's rank is much higher than that of Luo Ximei, which can be seen from the fact that she never loses ground against Luo Ximei, and she is also shrewd, and can even be said to understand the mood of everyone in the family.

Zhou Yan knew exactly what kind of person her parents-in-law were, and what kind of selfish thoughts they had, so she pointed at Yu Su's every sentence to provoke, meaning something, and what she said meant something.

Zhou Caihua, who was sitting on top thinking about the food, heard what the second daughter-in-law said. Suddenly, she remembered what she had been thinking about all along.

It was also the old man who said that the grandson was just married and the benefactor had just left. They couldn't let Erlang's wife hand over the dowry right away.

In addition, yesterday, when I secretly prepared to go to their room, General Tie locked the door away...

There's no other way, she can only bear it and bear it, she just thinks that after three days of wedding, she will find another chance to get back her money and the things she wanted!
Unexpectedly, a ready-made opportunity came to your door right now.

Zhou Caihua rolled her eyes, and suddenly changed her attitude of not wanting to take care of things, and immediately changed her face.

She first nodded in agreement with Luo Ximei and Zhou Yan, and seemed to be very kind to help Song Baochang.

"Old man, don't rush to get angry. You and Erfa's daughter-in-law are right. The food in the house is not blown by strong winds. It can't stand this."

After a while of persuasion, she looked at Luo Zhou who was making trouble, and Zhou Caihua nodded, looking at her satisfied eldest daughter-in-law and her cousin and second daughter-in-law who was more satisfied with her cousin, "You are also very good, both of them are good friends of the Gu family Children, you have a heart."

After praising and acknowledging the two daughter-in-laws who cooperated with her and gave her a ready-made excuse, Zhou Caihua immediately glanced sharply at Yu Su who was hiding behind the old man.

She put her shelf up high, with a righteous expression on her face.

"Erlang's daughter-in-law, it's not me, a grandma, who wants to talk about you. You are young now, and you don't know the difficulties in your family. You just want to be strong, and you can only imitate Erlang's inconspicuous and independent temper, and you even compete with your elder siblings. Meals, you are not in charge of the family and you don’t know the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt, blindly guarding food, gluttony, throwing money away, not knowing how to manage the house, this is not okay, you can’t hold money like this.

As for me, I don’t blame you for your first offense today, but my child, you can’t be petty like this when you live at home, and you can’t follow your own temper. Do whatever you want, that’s not going to work, I always The Song family can't afford such a daughter-in-law. "

That's right, this stick was hard enough to knock it off, and it was even threatened, which shows how cruel the old woman's heart is, and her strength is poisonous!
Of course, in order to get the money and things she was craving smoothly, the old woman used the old method again, turning her head around and starting to coax.

"Of course, our old Song family is also a kind family. Grandma sees that you are still young, so why don't you say that we don't love you, Erlang's daughter-in-law. Just because everyone is here, today you put Take out the silver and the dowry at the bottom of the box, I will keep it for you, Nai, so that you don’t spend it carelessly if you are ignorant, it is for your own good, Nai..."

　I can't do it anymore, my eyes hurt, I feel like my pupils are foggy and hairy, I scrub and rub them, eye drops don't work, I look carefully and they don't work, what's the matter? Can't you rest well? No, no, I Go to the ophthalmologist.
