Flowers are expensive

Chapter 97

Both Man Cheng and Zhen were stunned for a moment, and asked in unison: "Really?" Guan said with a smile on his face: "I dare not say that nonsense, it was Yi Sheng who told me when he came here in the evening. Otherwise After Yi Sheng and Mo Xiang get married, you should ask him yourself."

Mancheng and his wife breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but smile at each other.Mo Xiang was even more surprised and delighted, she really didn't expect Tian Yisheng to think of all this for her!If you don't marry such a man, who will you marry?The more she thought about it, the happier she became, but she didn't want to show too much emotion in front of everyone, so she ate two mouthfuls of food, got off the table and went back to her room to have fun secretly.

After dinner, Mrs. Zhen and Mrs. Xie went to talk about Moxiang's dowry together.The job of cleaning up the dishes naturally fell to Zhuang and Lihua.Mrs. Zhuang smiled at Lihua while scooping hot water into the iron pot: "Thanks to your words just now, otherwise the marriage between Moxiang and Yisheng would have made people look different inside and out. Our Xie family is What kind of family can make trouble like the Jin family? As long as the two of them live well, they don’t want to do so much! I hate Jin Ling’er the most, and feel that the whole village has to learn from her Jin family like..."

Before finishing speaking, Jin Ling'er came in with a wooden basin.She naturally heard the last sentence, squinted at Zhuang and said, "Second sister-in-law, if you have something to say, say it in front of my face, don't tell the Jin family to come to the Jin family behind your back, it sounds harsh to me!"

Mrs. Zhuang raised her eyelids, gave Jin Ling'er a disdainful look, and said, "Where did I mention your Jin family behind your back? You can still hear me if I tell you behind your back? This is a kitchen, everyone can come in, I said My, you listen to you, if you are not happy, we can have a quarrel now!"

Jin Ling'er knocked the wooden basin on the stove, and said with anger in her eyes: "Second sister-in-law, do you think I don't know your intentions? You don't want Tian Yisheng to marry for Moxiang, okay? Coax the dog to go Right! You are afraid that Tian Yisheng will get married, and the elder brother and sister-in-law will have children, and this yard and this house will not fall into your hands. Hmph, your plan is written on your forehead! Who can't see it?"

The corner of Zhuang's mouth twitched, revealing a few hints of sneer.She raised her head and handed the washed bowl to Li Hua, saying, "Listen, how kind and righteous! It's as if she's the only one in the whole family who has no plans, no thoughts, no heart. That's right, my plans are all written on my forehead." What about you, how about you? You’ve been playing tricks behind your back, learning a tofu recipe without our sisters-in-law behind your back, and all your thoughts have gone to opening a shop in the town! In terms of thinking, how can I compare with yours? What? I was just thinking about these shabby houses. You are a capable person, with your eyes set high and far away, and you are thinking about moving your private house to the town to live a rich life. I dare not compare with you! Right? , pear blossom?"

Lihua smiled faintly, and had no intention of joining the fight between the two.She understood that since Mrs. Zhuang knew that Mrs. Xie had secretly taught Jin Ling'er the tofu recipe, she hated Jin Ling'er even more, and would pick things about Jin Ling'er from time to time.Mrs. Zhuang has many thoughts, but she is not deep at all. Her thoughts are clear at a glance, that is, she wants to keep her ancestral house when the family is finally separated, so she absolutely disapproves of Tian Yisheng's marriage.And Jin Ling'er picked the thing she hates the most, can she not speak ill of each other?
Jin Ling'er was also angry, and threw the wooden spoon in her hand into the hot water pot and said, "You still talk about it! Grandma and mother don't mention it, and you keep mentioning it! Isn't it just a tofu recipe?" Son? If you have the ability, go find your mother! If you don’t, don’t bark here!”

"Ouch!" Mrs. Zhuang yelled, shaking her left hand and shouted, "Jin Ling'er, you want to burn me to death! Your heart is too vicious, aren't you? Knowing that I am pregnant with a child, you brought hot water Burn me! Ouch! Ouch! This day can’t be passed! Just because your mother loves you, you bully me like this, the child with my belly! I’m more angry with my belly than yours without it! What kind of rules are these? Woolen cloth?"

These words instantly ignited all of Jin Ling'er's anger, she suddenly picked up the wooden basin and threw it at Zhuang's face a little out of control!Lihua was startled, and hastily stretched out her hand to pull Jin Ling'er's arm, causing the wooden basin to fall sideways, hitting the dustpan vegetable basket hanging on the wall behind.Those few things fell down with a clatter.Zhuang was not hit, but his emotions were completely blown out!
Before Li Hua and Jin Ling'er could react, Zhuang yelled and ran out of the kitchen door with his head in his arms, as if an earthquake had struck, and shouted: "Help! Help! Man Sheng Man Sheng, come quickly!" Help me! Jin Ling'er is going to smash me to death!" Instead of running into the house, she ran into the yard, sat down on the bamboo chair next to the chicken coop and cried like a tsunami.

Jin Ling'er froze, and suddenly realized that she was a little impulsive just now, how did it end now?Lihua let go of her arm and said, "Why are you doing this? Do you have to make such a fuss that you can't get off the stage?"

"Don't be complacent, Qin Lihua!" Jin Ling'er pointed at Lihua and said angrily, "Don't think that you can walk sideways just because you are married to Brother Man Ting! Maybe you and that damn bitch deliberately messed with me tonight! "

"You think highly of yourself!" Lihua leaned on the stove and sneered, "I don't have the time to deal with you, and I have never regarded you as a rival in love. The kindness you have done to Xie Manting, our husband and wife have been together for a long time. It’s just gossip on the side of the pillow. We didn’t take you seriously at all, so don’t always feel like you’re a side dish, even if you do, it’s not Xie Manting’s dish! Besides, I really have to remind you, second sister-in-law You are pregnant with the Xie family's child, if there is a mistake, grandma will let the third brother divorce you! You can do it yourself!"

After Lihua finished speaking, she went to the yard to see Mrs. Zhuang.Jin Ling'er felt as if she had fallen into a hole in the ice, from head to toe, she was so stiff that she couldn't walk half a step.There was Zhuang's screaming cry: "Ask Lihua, did she hit me with a wooden basin? It's unreasonable! It's unreasonable! The Jin family raised such a daughter? No matter how much we quarrel, my stomach She is still pregnant with Xie's seed, can she deal with me like this? Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Is it right? Just beating me so recklessly because of my mother's favor, can I survive here?"

Mrs. Zhuang is determined to get rid of Jin Ling'er tonight, and to show all the shame she has suffered in the past.If she was still pregnant with her child at this moment, she might not have such a good opportunity in the future.So no matter how much Xie's family tried to persuade her, she cried until her heart broke, with great grief.The cries made the Deng family next to Xie's family quarrel.

Aunt Zhang brought Yutao over for a look, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw Zhuang's eyes were red and swollen like peaches, and she was out of breath from crying.Knowing that Mrs. Zhuang had just had a baby, she hurriedly walked over and asked, "Oh, what's the matter? You're still pregnant, and you haven't passed the first three months, so be careful!"

Mrs. Zhuang grabbed Aunt Zhang's hand, choked up and said, "Auntie, can I not be sad? Everyone in your neighborhood knows that I am pregnant with a child and loves me, but your own family beats me. You say I can live this day Don’t wait for the child to be born, it’s good when the ready-made is gone, so that I won’t be sad when it’s born and beaten to death in the future!”

"Where are you talking?" Aunt Zhang looked at Aunt Xie blankly and asked, "Who beat her? This is too much, isn't it? There is still a child in the stomach! I see that no one in your family can do this." That's right!"

"Hmph, no one?" Mo Xiang said with a slap in the face, "I'm afraid someone hides the fox's tail too well, auntie, you didn't see it!"

"Moxiang!" Aunt Xie glanced at Moxiang and said, "What are you gossiping about, an unmarried girl? She is your elder after all, and it's not your turn to speak if you blame her."

When Mrs. Xie said this, Aunt Zhang seemed to have guessed who it was.Among the Xie family members standing all over the yard, Jin Ling'er was the only one who didn't come out. If it wasn't her, who else could it be?Aunt Zhang didn't want to say anything else, knowing that Mrs. Xie always favored Jin Ling'er, she sat down next to Mrs. Zhuang and tried to persuade her.

Guan called Lihua aside and asked the ins and outs, and Lihua told her everything.Her complexion gradually darkened, and she walked up to Mrs. Zhuang and said, "Second daughter-in-law, grandma will make the decision for you, don't cry anymore, grandma will be angry if you cry again, and you will be punished together. Do you hear that? The child is important, do you know?" After hearing this, Mrs. Zhuang restrained her crying, but still leaned against Aunt Zhang aggrievedly, talking about her hardships these years and the hard work in her daily life.

Mrs. Guan glanced into the kitchen, and said to Aunt Xie, "I called Jin Ling'er to my room!" Aunt Xie asked worriedly, "Mother, how do you plan to fine Jin Ling'er? Maybe tonight When it comes to Moxiang and Tian Yisheng, she's just a little unhappy, so she must have intended to hit the second daughter-in-law."

"It doesn't matter if it's intentional or not!" Guan Shi glared at Mrs. Xie and said, "Even if it's unintentional, if it really hits the target, will the child be fine just because she was unintentional? It doesn't matter whether it's serious or not. What qualifications do you have to be the daughter-in-law of our Xie family!"

"Mother, please don't say that..."

"Called her! And you, together!" After speaking, Guan reached out to Lihua, who hurriedly supported her and walked slowly back to her room.

Guan's house is not big, filled with a strong smell of herbal medicine, most of the family members are reluctant to come because they feel their noses are choked, but Lihua thinks it smells good, so they stare curiously at those small medicine boxes.

When Mrs. Xie and Jin Ling'er came, Lihua was about to leave.But Guan said: "You stay here, and by the way, listen to the rules of our Xie family." Lihua had no choice but to stand beside Guan.

Mrs. Guan raised her eyes and glanced at Jin Ling'er coldly, then turned her gaze to Aunt Xie and said, "When you insisted on telling Man Sheng about Jin Ling'er, what did I say? Do you remember? Aunt Xie hurriedly said: "Mother said, let me make the decision."

"Yes, that's exactly what I said at the time. You are the mother of five sons. My grandma doesn't plan to care about what kind of wives the sons marry, lest you say that I dominate the family affairs and don't let you intervene." Let you decide. I spared my hands to let you enjoy the addiction of your mother-in-law, but look, what kind of wife did you marry for Man Sheng?"

These words clearly contained a bit of humiliation, which made Jin Ling'er extremely embarrassed, biting her pale lower lip.

"Mother, Jin Ling'er really didn't do it on purpose, who can have no temper? This time she was really wrong, and she should know it herself, shouldn't she, Jin Ling'er?" Mrs. Xie said gently with her arms. He bumped into Jin Linger who was beside him, "Speak up, and apologize to grandma."

"Is there any use in making amends to me? Was it me who was smashed?" Guan asked.

"Then let Jin Ling'er apologize to her second sister-in-law. After all, they are a family of sisters-in-law, and there can be no jokes between the two families. Mother, you should give Jin Ling'er a chance to change her ways. She will definitely not dare next time." !"

Guan looked at Jin Ling'er solemnly and said, "I'll explain it to you right now, Jin Ling'er! It just so happens that Li Hua is there, so she can remember it by the way. No matter how much I pamper you, it's fine, but if I will never forgive you for hurting people’s lives! Whether you want to apologize to your second sister-in-law is your business, but the Xie family also has the rules of the Xie family, and they cannot be discarded just because you are the daughter of Village Chief Jin. Today I will punish you to kneel in the hall for two hours at night, do you understand?"

Jin Ling'er's clenched lips suddenly loosened, and she looked at Guan Shi with stunned and angry eyes, and the curse words had rushed to her throat!This damn old woman actually wants to punish herself to kneel for two hours, so she must lose her two legs!
