Chapter 383: Envy someone to death

Shen Kun was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood and whispered, "But you wanted to give sister Meiying a snake before..."

 If he had not persuaded her, Sister Meiying would have been frightened out of her psychological shadow.

  Shen Nian had nothing to say.

 …This is indeed true.

She looked at Li Xiuniang nonchalantly and changed the subject: "Mom, is Sister Rou'er getting married this month?"

Li Xiuniang was laughed to death by the mutual hostility between the two brothers.

Facing her daughter’s serious face, she suppressed her laughter and said, “Yes, it will be in ten days.”

 “So urgent?”

Li Xiuniang also felt a little anxious, "I'm a little anxious, but Wen Rui has to take the exam in a few days, and the two families plan to get married first. Fortunately, both families have prepared in advance, so they won't appear panicked. "

It is better to get married in advance, so as not to wait for Wen Rui to succeed, or even go further, and something will go wrong.

Shen Nian was most concerned about the wedding dress and said excitedly: "Sister Rou'er's wedding dress has been embroidered?"

"Okay, okay." Li Xiuniang smiled happily, "Mrs. Su was so thoughtful that she had embroidered the wedding clothes for them a long time ago. Your aunt and I saw it. It's so beautiful. We will wear such nice clothes in the future too." Wedding dress.”

"That's natural." Shen Nian was not shy and nodded calmly, acting as if he was the best.

 “Shameless.” Li Xiuniang nodded her forehead, looking dumbfounded.

Shen Nian just pretended not to hear.

 In the next few days, both the Shen family and the Su family became busy.

The Su family fled from famine and had a weak foundation in the village. And because of Su Wenrui's aura as a scholar, there was always a layer of distance between them and the people in the village.

 Fortunately, the Shen family has long been different. Whenever something good happens, the whole village will help.

 Even before the wedding day, the village started to become lively.

-

 A small, dilapidated village.

 A skinny woman was rubbing her clothes by the river.

Not far away from her, several women were talking quietly.

"Have you heard that the Wang family's...her daughter is getting married tomorrow?"

“How come you haven’t heard of it? Zhuxi Village is in great trouble now. There is something disturbing, and the news has spread to eight villages ten miles away.”

A woman's eyes lit up and she said expectantly: "Do you think that when a girl in their village gets married, will Zhuxi Village spread sugar to others again?"

"I think it will definitely happen!" The person who spoke first replied affirmatively, and she also gave an explanation, "The girl who got married is the niece who is in charge of all the affairs in Zhuxi Village. How can an uncle be so picky about a niece getting married..."

"It's not just that!" Another person said mysteriously, "The county head from Zhuxi Village does not think highly of her cousin. I heard that the county head gave her cousin a lot of makeup. .”

 Said with a greedy look on his face.

 Her daughter doesn’t have such a cousin, she is really envious of her.

  “What is it?”

  …“How do I know this? I’ll find out tomorrow.”

“Oh, Zhuxi Village is so good. There is work to do, money to make, young men don’t have to worry about getting married, and girls don’t have to worry about getting married. We even ride in bullock carts when going to the county..."

Thinking about it, tears of envy almost fell.

“I heard from a distant relative that every family in Zhuxi Village has built a new house, all blue brick houses, and the roads have also been repaired.

 The most important thing is that their factories and workshops provide very good welfare, and they give away rice, flour, grains, oil and meat from time to time.

That's all. The key point is that there is a contract factory in their village that only hires women. I heard that those women earn more than men. Because they earn more and have a high status in the family, the mother-in-law dare not even say a word..."

Thinking of how difficult her mother-in-law was, the woman who spoke just wished she could be twenty years younger and marry in Zhuxi Village. "It's so good." The face of the woman patching her clothes was full of yearning, and her eyes, which had been dulled by life, brightened.



"Do you think Ms. Liu is stupid? The Shen family has such good days, but Ms. Liu prefers to make peace with the person in front of her.

I heard that the third uncle before her became very popular after he became the third uncle of the county lord. Some people wanted to tell Shen Sanli about their daughter who had just grown hair. "

"What?" an impatient woman said in surprise, "Is the girl who just got haircut the same age as the county lord's third uncle's daughter? Isn't the age difference too far?"

"What's wrong with being older?" The woman who knew about the Shen family's affairs was obviously disapproving.

"I can't resist the fact that the Shen family is in good condition. Shen San is good-looking and young. The yard at home is large and neat. There is a grocery store in the county. There is income every day. Anyone who marries into it will enjoy happiness. This is not as good as marrying into the family. The young poor boy is much better..."

To put it shamelessly, if Shen San could fall in love with her, she would be willing to divorce her now.

 The woman touched her rough face and sighed.

It's a pity that she has such a distinguished appearance. Not to mention the county owner and her third uncle, even a random man would not look down on her...

 “Yes!” said the older woman Shen San nodded in agreement.

Thinking again of the fact that the girl from the Shen family was getting married tomorrow, she changed her voice and said, "Do you think the Shen family will come to call Mrs. Liu?

Mrs. Liu is the biological mother of the girl from the Shen family after all. How could she not say a word when her daughter got married..."

 No one answered before there was a sudden bang and the sound of something falling to the ground.

 Several women looked over.

However, I saw that the person involved in the conversation came over at some point, and it seemed that I had overheard their gossip.

 “What did you say?” the woman asked with a trembling voice.

Oops! Why did Mr. Liu hear it...

  The expressions of the cheerful women who were just gossiping froze.

If this woman secretly went to Zhuxi Village and disturbed the marriage of the county lord's cousin, they would be in trouble.

 Unprecedentedly, at this moment, the women in the village had a rare unity of thought.

"No, I didn't say anything. I was just chatting." The woman who was talking when Mrs. Liu came was a little flustered.

"No, you are talking about Sister Rou. Sister Rou is getting married tomorrow?" Mrs. Liu was so thin that her cheekbones were bulging, and she stared at people with numb eyes.

 It’s frightening.

  The woman she was staring at was so frightened that she took a step back and almost fell into the river.

 Luckily, the person next to her helped her, otherwise she would have choked on the water.

Before she could calm down from the shock, the woman spoke angrily: "You are no longer the Shen family, so why do you still care about other people's affairs? Take good care of your good husband and son, and stop meddling in the Shen family's affairs."

   Mr. Liu is a temperless bun. After marrying another woman, she ate less than chickens and got up earlier than dogs in the Wang family. She was even disliked from time to time, and now she is becoming more and more timid.

The woman's slightly louder voice made her lose the courage to question others.

He lowered his head with red eyes, tears rolling down his face.

 She is Sister Rou’s biological mother. May I ask what’s wrong?

 The woman who spoke felt relieved when she saw that Mrs. Liu was honest.

Still with a cold face, he said, "The Shen family doesn't want to see you, so don't go blind and attract attention tomorrow.

If you are blamed by the county boss, there will be no room for you in the village. "

 After saying that, he and others left with the washing tub.
