70s Xiao Que Xing

Chapter 470 Gossiping

"Xiaoye, don't go, just stay at home and stay at home, your sister-in-law doesn't need so many people." Father Xie ignored Xie Xiaoye's entanglement and decided directly.

"Father!" Xie Xiaoye looked at her father's back when he returned to the house, and stomped his feet angrily.

But it was impossible for her to just give up like this.

What Xie Xiaoye said to her father just now, if she went to the army to find an officer, was actually just to coax her father.

She knew very well what she was like. She had no academic qualifications, and she could be regarded as handsome, but she was not tall and had a bad temper. It was very difficult to find an officer in the army.

It's better to marry someone from a neighboring village, and it's more reliable to have parents and brothers to rely on.

She is not like her elder sister, who is so high-minded, unable to recognize herself, and let herself fall into such a miserable situation.

But she just wanted to go to the army to see what the army looked like, and when she came back, she could brag with her little sisters.

When she gets engaged and married in the future, she won't be so free.

But her father disagreed desperately now, so she had no choice but to let it go first, and spend a few more days in the future, I believe her father would definitely agree.

"Dabao, my mother has been here for more than a week, but she hasn't taken a bath. You can tell her to let her take a bath. Now that the weather is getting warmer, if you don't take a bath for more than a week, you should smell bad." It's gone." After washing the catkins at night, he whispered to Xie Dabao.

"It's okay. My mother doesn't wash it once a month when she's at home. It's okay. She doesn't live in the same room with us anyway."

Xie Dabao didn't pay as much attention to hygiene as Liu Xu did, so it didn't matter what he said.

"At home is at home, here is here, and it's not winter yet, the weather is so warm, and it's not like there's no hot water at home, so just tell your mother what's wrong with asking her to wash up." Liu Xu said unhappily.

"Okay, I'll go and talk to mother now, let mother take a bath." Seeing that Liu Xu was unhappy, Xie Dabao hurriedly agreed.

"Mom, you have been here for more than a week, and you are busy cooking and doing housework every day. It is really hard for you." Xie Dabao has been caught between his wife and mother for a long time, and he has also learned some roundabout methods.

"What's wrong? Are you busy?" Wu Lihua, who was already lying on the bed, said with certainty.

She still knows what kind of temper this son is. When she sees him like this, she knows that she has something to say.

"It's okay, just thinking that you have been here for more than a week, and you must be sweating a lot every day, and it should be itchy. I just thought of serving you once and burning it for you." Get some hot water for you to take a bath and feel comfortable." Xie Dabao continued with a smile.

"Why do you wash it? I just washed it before I came here. If you bathe all day like you and your wife, how much firewood would be wasted!" Wu Lihua said unhappily.

"It's okay, if you don't have enough firewood, I'll go to the mountain to chop when I'm free on Sunday. There's a lot of it on the mountain. Isn't it just for you to sleep comfortably?" Xie Dabao continued with a smile.

"What? Does your wife think I'm dirty?" Wu Lihua said with an unhappy face.

"No way, how is it possible, how could she think you are dirty, if she thinks you are dirty, how can she still eat the food you cook every day!" Xie Dabao was afraid that Wu Lihua would get angry, so he quickly defended his wife.

"What's the matter? She's not satisfied with the cooking. Now I cook according to your requirements!" Wu Lihua said angrily.

"Where is it? There is nothing at all. Don't doubt it. I just thought that you haven't bathed for a week. You might feel itchy and uncomfortable, so I thought about boiling some water for you and letting you take a bath." If you don't want to wash it, then forget it, don't make wild guesses, it's not about Xiaoxu's business." Seeing that his clumsy mouth was getting darker and darker, Xie Dabao hurriedly explained.

"I think you are looking for your daughter-in-law. After marrying a daughter-in-law and forgetting your mother, you can go out. I don't feel itchy on my body, and I feel very comfortable. I don't need to wash it!" Wu Lihua hurriedly said.

"Okay, do you want to wash it or not!" Xie Dabao got a little impatient at what his mother said, so he opened the door and left.

"What? Mother doesn't want to wash it?" Liu Xu hurriedly asked seeing that Xie Dabao's expression was not very good.

"No, she is willing to wash, how could she not be willing, but she feels a bit cold at night, afraid of catching a cold, and wants to wash when the sun comes out tomorrow morning!" Xie Dabao lied.

Anyway, his wife can't tell whether his mother washes it or not, so it's better not to make his wife angry with this matter.

"That's fine, just remember to tell her tomorrow not to let her forget." Liu Xu didn't realize that Xie Dabao was lying to her, and said with satisfaction.

Xie Dabao was very happy to see that his daughter-in-law believed in him, and felt that he had slowly figured out a way to adjust the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Look at how beautifully he handled this matter, and he found that the conflicts between his wife and his mother have decreased a lot recently.

But the next day, after Xu Zhongjun told him the gossip about his mother in the army, the lies he made for himself were instantly exposed.

It turned out that it wasn't that there were fewer conflicts, it was just that they didn't fight in front of him.

"Mother, have you been gossiping about the family with others in the compound, saying that I, my wife and my second sister are not filial to you, and you serve Xiaoxu, and we still dislike you all day long, and treat you badly?" Isn't it?" Xie Dabao said to Wu Lihua directly and seriously when he came back at noon.

"No, I didn't say anything. What I said outside was only good for you." Seeing that Xie Dabao was so serious, Wu Lihua lied habitually.

"I still said no, do you know that what you said has spread to the army. This morning, I was called to talk by the leaders above. They said that I was not filial and discredited the army. I didn't deserve to be honored. The soldier also said that if I dare to do this again in the future, I will be discharged from the army!" Xie Dabao said deliberately seriously.

If he said it lightly, his mother would definitely not remember it.

Xie Dabao said that the leader above called him, but did not say that it was Xu Zhongjun, because he was afraid that his mother would think that his brother-in-law deliberately wanted to destroy their mother-child relationship after hearing his second brother-in-law's name, and would go to the second sister's house to find fault.

"It's not that serious, I just complained a few words casually." Wu Lihua said with some fear.

"Why is it not so serious? Do you know where the army is? The army values ​​reputation the most. And you go out and ruin the reputation of my wife and me. What good is it for you? What good is it for our family? Do you let others I think your son and daughter-in-law bully you and feel sorry for you, so you can get something? You will only let others see our family’s jokes. If you have a bad life here, you think my wife and I treat you badly If so, then you can go home, I will not stop you."

Xie Dabao was really angry this time, if his second brother-in-law hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have known about it at all.

"Also, don't gossip about the second sister in the future. The whole team knows what you did to the second sister before and the troubles in the army. When you speak ill of the second sister, you know I don't know, no one agrees with you, and they all laugh at you as a vicious stepmother in their hearts!" Xie Dabao then said angrily.

"When I went out to play, I just said a few words casually. Who knew that they were so bad, but they were passed on to your leader. Someone must be jealous of our family and spread it on purpose. How about I go to the army this afternoon to explain to your leader? For a moment, just tell me how nice you and your wife are to me? I won’t talk about Xiao Nian in the future, do you think it’s okay?”

Wu Lihua is really a little scared now, afraid that she will really screw up her son and daughter-in-law's work, so she won't have to go back to Xiezhuang, but go back to her mother's house directly.

"What are you talking about? If you talk about it, it will only get darker and darker. This is the army, not our village. It's not enough for you to say a few words or explain a few words. Xiaoxu will be back soon, I don't want to be messed with by this matter." She's bothering you, you just have to remember, don't talk nonsense in the future, I'll take care of the rest." Xie Dabao instructed directly.

"Okay, mother promises that I won't say anything in the future." Wu Lihua promised quickly.

With that posture, he almost didn't raise his hand to swear.

Sure enough, the person she cares about can cure her. If Xie Xiaonian said this to her, she might think that Xie Xiaonian was cursing Dabao and Dabao's wife, and would fight Xie Xiaonian.

When Liu Xu came back, she saw that her mother-in-law was very obedient, and she was not as surprised as before when she was eating. She would even care about herself from time to time, which surprised her.

"Dabao, tell me, do you have something to hide from me?" During the lunch break, Liu Xu asked anxiously.

"No, what can I hide from you?" Xie Dabao lied.

"You and mother must have something to hide from me, otherwise mother is so quiet at noon today, she is not like her usual." Liu Xu said suspiciously.

"It's okay, it's just that she didn't take a shower this morning, and I quarreled with her again, and she was a little angry, thinking that my words were ugly and far from yours, that's why it happened." Xie Dabao said comfortingly.

"As long as you don't have anything to hide from me, it's fine, otherwise, I can't forgive you." Liu Xu said, waving her small fist.

In fact, what Xie Dabao didn't know was that there was no need to hide this matter from Liu Xu. Liu Xu had already heard the gossip in the compound, but as his daughter-in-law, it was hard for her to say anything.

Otherwise, she would only confirm the rumors and make her even more unfilial, so she didn't say a word and let others talk.

Wu Lihua felt that she had done something wrong, and for the next two days, she didn't dare to go out and gossip with others, and stayed at home obediently except for work.

But she has never been a person who can stay in the house, so on the morning of the third day, she couldn't hold back anymore, and went downstairs with a sewing dustpan and a small bench.
