Nongmen lady Jiang Huhan

Chapter 12
012 Xin Family
Xin Wan left the window open when she entered the house. God also came to her rescue, and the light rain started to fall again.

Mrs. Lu was a little dazed by Xin Cui's yelling, and looked out of the window, her complexion suddenly turned ugly, and she looked very embarrassed.

Subconsciously, I saw the only pair of big cloth shoes on the ground, but they were full of mud and still wet, and they looked like they had just come in from the outside.

And Xin Cui said yesterday that she was on duty in the third room, so what she just said just now was all slapping her in the face!

The corner of Lu's mouth twitched, and she glared at Xin Cui, who was filled with indignation on the kang, and then snorted coldly: "She shouldn't have done what she did. She stayed here for three days."

"What three days? Isn't my mother guarding my father in the mourning hall? If you let her go out to do work during those three days, would you dare to walk out of this yard today? You are not afraid of being laughed to death!" Xin Cui is really anxious, she has grown so big This is the first time I dare to disobey my grandma.

It's true, it's too bullying!
She didn't know where she got the courage, anyway, her heart was hot and her body was full of strength, if she didn't speak out what was in her mind, she felt like she was going to suffocate to death.

"You stinky girl, who are you talking to like that, are you looking for a beating?" Mrs. Lu was angry, staring at Xin Cui, then looking around, it seemed that she was looking for someone to beat someone.

It's a pity that Jin's house is too shabby, too poor, and has nothing.

"Mom, the pig food will be put into the pot soon. What are we going to eat in the morning? Do you need a small pot? The water is already hot. Can you wipe my father's face?"

Just when Mr. Lu was about to take care of Xin Cui, Mr. Tian's shout came from the yard.

Mrs. Lu glared at Mrs. Jin angrily, and then cursed angrily: "Get out of here and cook pig food, and have porridge in the morning." Then she left the house angrily.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu It's so bullying, mother, if it weren't for my little sister, I don't know how you would have been beaten by her now." Xin Cui sat on the kang and cried in grievance.

Jin Shi also burst into tears.

"Okay, okay, I'm fine, I'm pretending, you go out quickly, to avoid being scolded again.

Mom, don't worry, the medicine is quite effective. I was very full after eating your food yesterday, and I have recovered.

But even though I'm well, I can't be seen by others, so I have to hide in the house for a few days, otherwise I will be suspected. After all, I'm afraid that something bad will come out after my father left.

Dad is our family member, even if his soul does not go away, he is still protecting us in the house, we are too late to be happy.

But if others find out that I, a terminally ill person, suddenly recovered, they will definitely think wrongly and have to wait until my father is over seven years old before talking! "

Jin stopped her tears when she heard it, and immediately felt that her daughter's words were right, she nodded quickly and said: "Okay, then you rest first, Cui, you are with your sister, mother has to go out quickly."

Jin quickly got off the ground and went out wearing muddy shoes.

Xin Cui looked at Xin Wan and wiped her tears, and said, "Little sister, you, are you really healed?"

"Okay, I was cured by my father's soul. Sister, although I am normal now, I can't remember too many things from the past. Please tell me about the family affairs."

Xin Cui came over and touched Xin Wan's forehead, then pulled her, and the two sisters sat in front of the window and talked.

The old man of the Xin family is called Xin Daji, and he married a wife named Lu.

Xin Zhengfeng is the second oldest and has three daughters, Xin Meng is 14 years old, Xin Cui is 12 years old, and Xin Wan is 11 years old.

The Xin family has three rooms in total, and the population of the three rooms is the simplest.

The third uncle, Xin Zhengtai, married his wife Tian, ​​a gentle, kind and hardworking woman. They met their two daughters, Xin Yu and Xin Miao, yesterday. They were indeed 8 years old and the other 6 years old.

The most favored of the Xin family is naturally the eldest son, just as Tian said, the eldest son Xin Zhengye married his wife Lou, and they had three sons and two daughters, the eldest son did not live past the age of three.

Now the eldest daughter in the family is Xin Qiaoqiao, who is 18 years old and married last year.

Dafang now has two second sons left, one is named Xin Jinbao and the other is named Xin Jinyuan!
Hearing this name, you can know how precious it is, and because the first son died, these two boys are especially precious.

Mrs. Lou was quite capable of giving birth and had a good life. In ancient rural areas, having a son by her side was the best support for a woman's life. What's more, even if one died, she still gave birth to two sons.

Neither the second nor the third brother had a son, so the eldest brother, the Lou family, was very rampant in the Xin family. Taking advantage of the fact that he had a son, he usually took advantage and bullied his sister-in-law.

In addition, in ancient times, scholars were extremely valued, and ordinary families could not afford to support scholars, so the Xin family was one of the few in the village who could support scholars, and they were regarded as respectable families in the village.

Even if a person has no fame, he is a scholar, farmer, businessman, or scholar with the highest status. It would be even more extraordinary if he wins the exam again. That would be a great honor for his ancestors to shine with smoke from their ancestral graves!

Scholars know more things, reading and literacy is not like working hard in the fields, haha, poor peasants who can't read big characters, can only sell their physical strength.

No matter how poor you are, you can still be a shopkeeper or something in the town. After all, it is definitely not easy to support a scholar, especially in a working-class or ordinary family.

The third son of the Lou family, Xin Jinyuan, was uneducated and had completely different temperaments from his elder brother Xin Jinbao, who was studying. However, he was also very popular. After all, there were only two men in the Xin family.

Xin Jinyuan also has an even more favored sister, Lou's little girl named Xin Meiju. You can tell from this name that she is not only favored, but also given high hopes!
Meiju!

"Second cousin Jinbao has been studying in a private school since he was a child. I don't know how much money the family has spent. The reason why our Xin family lives such a miserable life is to support his education. Just doing cultivation alone costs 8 to 10 taels of silver a year. Unable to stop, I still have pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and I spend money everywhere.

But now he is 17 years old, and he has not learned to be ugly. The eldest brother of the Tie family in the village passed the Tongsheng exam last year. He is only 16 years old this year. There are two Tongsheng in the village, which one is not better than the eldest son.

There is also Meiju. Grandma scolds us every day for being rich ladies. Among our sisters, including Xiaoyu and Xiaomiao from the third aunt’s family, none of us have been working behind our mother’s side since we were 5 years old.

Meiju has never done anything before, she embroidered in the house all day, and I have never seen her embroider so well, she is not as good as me! "

Xin Cui was like a jumping bean, and she went through the people and things of the Xin family in a snap, which made Xin Wan even more aware.

Xin Wan frowned and said, "How long has it been since Grandpa had a stroke?"

This ancient stroke is actually hemiplegia. Generally, if you get this disease, you can only leave it to your fate. Even in your previous life, with the advancement of medicine, this disease cannot be cured.
