Chapter 93
After all the dishes for the banquet outside were served, Mrs. Cao also arranged for her family to sit down for dinner. Their table was arranged in the pot house. Even the women of their own family were not so particular about it. Everyone was not used to sitting. table, they all went out with their bowls and chatted with the villagers while eating.

Because Cao was thinking about Manxiu's affairs, she was afraid that people would ask about it when she went out, so she didn't go out, and hid in the pot house to eat with Yang Liu and the others.

Yang Liu didn't persuade her either, but just urged her, Xiaoye and Xiaocao to eat quickly, otherwise they might not be able to eat later.
Cao didn't understand what Yang Liu meant by saying this, but she wasn't in the mood to ask.

Just when the banquet was halfway through, Yang Liu suddenly heard a noise coming from the yard.

Mrs. Cao was in shock at first because of Manxiu's family's reluctance to come to eat, but now she heard the noise from outside the yard, and she stood up from the stool with a "bang" in fright.

Xiaoye and Xiaocao didn't know why, they looked at Mrs. Cao in shock, not knowing what to do.

Yang Liu smiled slightly, thinking that what was supposed to come had finally come, but this time came at the right time, most of the guests outside had finished eating, but they didn't leave. There were a lot of fair words, so she simply took advantage of this time Get things straightened out.

She hurriedly stuffed a few mouthfuls of food into her mouth. She had been busy all day, and it was already half of the afternoon. Her stomach was already grumbling from hunger. There might be a bad battle to be fought later, so if you don’t eat enough, Where is the strength.

Originally, she wanted to persuade Cao Shi to take the opportunity to eat more food to fill her stomach, but seeing Cao Shi's face, Yang Liu guessed that she couldn't eat it either, so she took a few mouthfuls and dragged Cao Shi out.

As Yang Liu expected, the people making trouble at the door were the Manxiu family. The excuse this time was slightly different from the previous one. The Yang family used to make trouble every time they came, but this time they came to Qingfeng He and Yingzi had a quarrel, saying that they didn't personally inform them of their engagement today.

When Yang Liu, Cao Shi and the others went out, Man Xiu was pointing at Qingfeng and Yingzi, turning his tongue around and almost spitting.

However, Qingfeng and Yingzi were originally honest people, and they were juniors, so they would be scolded by Manxiu and hide in the corner, not even daring to lift their heads.

Presumably, Manxiu is also a powerful figure in the village. In this situation, although many people whispered in the crowd, accusing Manxiu of being too much, but no one dared to speak out to be fair.

However, it may also be because the situation is a bit special, because Man Xiu is Qingfeng's biological mother no matter what, and now Man Xiu scolding them is just a mother teaching her daughter-in-law, and it is really hard for others to speak out.

Don't even talk about others, even Yang Mancang and Huang's standing closest to Qingfeng and Yingzi didn't speak, they just watched the farce with embarrassment.

Yang Liu looked at Mrs. Cao beside her. At first Mrs. Cao heard the noise outside in the house, and she probably thought it was Manxiu who came to trouble them. She didn't want to have a conflict with Manxiu in front of so many people in the village. , so his face was full of worry.

This meeting with Manxiu scolded Qingfeng and Yingzi, and Cao seemed to be relieved, and had no intention of going forward to dissuade them at all.

Maybe in their eyes, they thought it was right for the parents to scold their children. Anyway, it was better for Manxiu to scold Qingfeng than to come and make trouble at home.

But Cao's and the others were thinking too simply. Yang Liu reckoned that Man Xiu's scolding of Qingfeng and Yingzi was just an excuse. At home, I just don't know how Manxiu will think of a way to make the transition.
Therefore, Yang Liu gave Cao Shi a little push, and said to Cao Shi in a low voice: "Mother, go and call Aunt Manxiu to stop scolding Brother and Sister Yingzi. If she ignores you, you can go over there." Get into a fight with her."

"Get into a fight?" Cao Shi thought she had heard wrong, and asked Yang Liu with wide-eyed eyes.
Yang Liu nodded, and continued to give advice to Cao: "Yes, talk to them first, and invite them to come in for a wedding. If they don't accept your favor and continue to scold elder brother, you can make a noise with her." , but remember not to talk too much when you are making trouble, and don't be led away by her words, you just insist, as long as she doesn't scold big brother."

The more Cao listened, the more she couldn't understand: "Why is this? She is your eldest brother's mother. If you want to scold me, let him scold you a few words. I used to make troubles, so the troubles are getting bigger and bigger."

Yang Liu rolled her eyes helplessly, she was afraid that Manxiu would talk about it later, Manxiu didn't target the Yang family when she entered the house today, and she scolded Qingfeng and Yingzi when she came out, which is already doubtful .
But Yang Liu didn't have time to explain to Cao Shi all of a sudden. Seeing that Cao Shi refused to listen to his persuasion, Yang Liu had no choice but to go to battle by himself.

But Man Xiu felt that she was almost done swearing, or she saw Yang Liu walking towards them, she suddenly stopped swearing.

But the next moment she stopped scolding Qingfeng and the two of them, she suddenly pointed her finger at the big melon and the little melon playing in the crowd. She rushed to the two little guys unprepared, pointed at the two little guys and cursed viciously. : "You two bastards, what are you running around in this courtyard, it's making a lot of noise."

Big Gua and Xiao Gua were having fun with a few children in the yard at this time, and when they saw Manxiu rushing in front of them, they were frightened and froze. They also burrowed into the arms of Cao Shi and Huang Shi.
Seeing that the big melon in her arms was crying for a long time, Huang frowned and blamed Manxiu: "Manxiu, what's the matter with you, there are still two children, one didn't mess with you, and the other didn't bother you. What are you doing, what are you scolding them for?"
"Yes, Aunt Manxiu, you are going too far." Seeing the crying little melon in her arms, Mrs. Cao blamed Manxiu with a distressed face.
Man Xiu seemed to have been waiting for this kind of scene to happen. After hearing what Huang Shi and Cao Shi said, she didn't reply immediately, but just looked at them coldly with her mouth curled up.
Yang Liu knew from the beginning that today's Man Xiu must have come prepared, just now when he saw Man Xiu rushing towards Da Gua and the others, he knew that he was going out late, now seeing Man Xiu looking at Huang's two With her complexion, she was even more sure that Manxiu pointed at Qingfeng and scolded Qingfeng as soon as she entered the door for a purpose.

But the matter has come to this point, and it counts as much as it can be saved. Yang Liu finally walked out, walked up to Man Xiu, and said with a half-smile: "What's wrong, Aunt Man Xiu, today is my elder brother's engagement." Good day, just now my family asked people to call you a few times, but you have been refusing to come over, and you will come to the door suddenly, just to scold my elder brother and two younger brothers?"

Man Xiu didn't reply immediately, but just smiled and glanced at Yang Liu, and then she suddenly approached Yang Liu and said in a low voice, "Hmph, you are smart, but it's a pity that your parents are too stupid."
After Man Xiu said this in a low voice, she stretched out her hand to push the willows away, looked at the villagers with a loud voice, and said, "Today, with so many people in the village, I would like to invite everyone to comment on Man Xiu."
"At the beginning, their Yang family had no sons to inherit the incense. I thought they were pitiful, and for the sake of relatives, I adopted a son to inherit the incense for their family, so that their old Yang family would not be extinct. This old Yang The first few years of the family were considered kind, and they treated my family Qingfeng not badly, but since their family had their own son a few years ago, they have treated our family Qingfeng as a more and more inappropriate person."

"First of all, I didn't care about my family's Qingfeng's marriage. When I Qingfeng came to his house, I told his family clearly that my family's Qingfeng was going to be engaged at the age of 14. This matter must not be delayed, but their family's Not only did Nian not arrange a marriage for our family Qingfeng, but he organized a banquet for their twins that everyone in the village knew about."

As Manxiu said, she casually pulled the woman closest to her, looked at her and asked, "You won't forget that banquet, right? Everyone in our village went there, whether it was for the ceremony or not. Well, I think their family was very happy at the time and wished they could hold a banquet in the village for a few days and nights. If he likes to do it, it’s fine if the family has the financial resources. But because of the banquet, their family said they had no money. I got engaged to my family Qingfeng, so I postponed the marriage until this year."

Manxiu was really able to speak when she opened her mouth. After finishing such a long speech, not only did she not stop for half a sentence, she didn't even pause. But because what she said at the beginning was indeed true, no one could refute it. No one in the room interrupted, listening to her quietly.

But Man Xiu didn't seem to have finished speaking, she paused for a while, and then she continued: "You know, I, Man Xiu, am a talkative person, and I try to accommodate everything I can. They said this year and I promised to wait until this year."
"But not long ago, when it came to buying a betrothal gift for our family Qingfeng, their Yang family came out again. Those things that they promised to buy in good condition changed immediately when they came back from their big girl. "

"It's because the family doesn't have that much money, so they don't let me ask, and they don't even plan to let me come to the engagement banquet today."

Yang Liu has seen many eloquent people, but there are quite a few people like Manxiu who can turn black and white and boast about themselves, and when she said these things, she didn't even blush at all, as if she really was such an eloquent person.

But fortunately, regarding the banquet, Yang Liu still took some precautions. Someone in the village testified that Uncle Long Yun, who went to borrow the table with Yang Mancang at the beginning, immediately stood up and said something fair after hearing what Manxiu said. :
"Sister-in-law Manxiu, as a human being, you can't say that you wronged others. Today's banquet..."

Man Xiu thought she had been prepared for a long time, before Long Yun could finish speaking, she shook her hand at Long Yun, and then said: "I know you shouted, so you must have been overwhelmed by the villagers' questions, so you put on an air. to shut other people's mouths."

"I, Manxiu, admit that you came to shout, but I didn't come. Why, because my Manxiu family is not rich, but there is no shortage of stuttering. I don't care about this banquet."
