Chapter 234 Xu's Transformation, Conservatory(1/2)
After the actions of Niu and Hu were exposed in public, another gossip craze was set off in the village.
However, compared to Hu, who is not well-known, Niu, who is well-known in the village, has become the focus of discussion. Especially since she is Sang Ye's sister-in-law, she framed her sister-in-law, which is enough to prove that she is a person with a bad mind and her reputation plummeted.
After Sang Ye knew the fate of these two people, he no longer spent his energy on paying attention to this matter, and instead focused on dealing with the difficulties he might suffer in the future.
According to the rules, on the second day of the first lunar month, we were going to our uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings. Although we had an unhappy relationship with our eldest aunt Xu, the couple couldn't say it would be reasonable if they didn't go to pay New Year's greetings. So early that morning, Zheng Lin packed up three New Year's greetings, drove a carriage and took his wife to the Meng family, preparing to turn around and return after paying New Year's greetings to several uncles.
Originally, Zheng Shuiqing and Niu family should have gone to the Meng family to pay New Year's greetings, but they had such a thing. They didn't even dare to go out of the door, so they still remembered to pay New Year's greetings to their uncles. Meng also seemed to have forgotten about this, and perhaps she knew whether those two people went to the uncle's greetings to New Year's greetings was no longer something she could control.
Sang Ye's belly was barely three months old. Zheng Lin tried his best to control the carriage and dared not walk too fast. This way, it was not much faster than when he got off the ground. However, there was no need to drive the carriage, and the mulberry that was frozen outside was comfortable. He leaned against the door and chatted with Zheng Lin in a random manner.
As we chatted, we talked about Xu's head. Sang Ye told me about the fact that Xu had visited the door twice after Zheng Lin left, and finally asked: "My aunt is not going to deal with me. This time I wish her and my uncle a happy New Year, wouldn't she make things difficult for me, right?"
"No, she dares not!" Zheng Lin didn't take Xu's heart. If Xu really dared to make things difficult for Sang Ye, he would be the first to refuse: "I'll go to my uncle's house later. Don't get along with Xu alone. Let's put down our things and leave."
Sang Ye felt relieved and touched his stomach and said, "Yes, let's go and go back early." As she said that, she asked with a smile: "This is the first time I have visited the doors of several uncles. Are there many red envelopes to get?"
It’s not that Sang Ye asked this. According to the rules, the bride came to pay New Year’s greetings for the first time, and the other party wanted to give a red envelope. There was no limit on the amount, but it could not be too light. She would just give a penny and get it.
Sang Ye remembered what the second-hand girl said before, that she went to her brother-in-law’s uncle’s house to pay New Year’s greetings for the first time. Each uncle gave a red envelope of 200 yuan. It is said that this was based on the default minimum standard.
It’s not that they are stingy, but ordinary farmers are not well off. Two hundred cents are not much, but it’s enough for a family of three to eat meat for a month.
Sang Ye thought in his mind that there were three uncles in the Meng family, and the red envelopes were unlikely to be less than 200 yuan, which was a lot, which was enough to pull some good fabrics for the kids in their stomachs to make several small clothes.
When Zheng Lin heard this, he felt that his wife had the potential to be a financial enchantment for the first time. He smiled and said, "I should give it, but it won't be much. If you want money, you can go out for your husband after the New Year and earn some money for you."
Sang Ye's thoughts were pulled out of the child's little clothes, and he said without thinking: "No, if it's not for a task, you'd better stay at home obediently. I don't want to be the one who is a father when you have a baby."
Thinking of herself being miserable and miserable, lying on the bed with tears in pain, she could only let the midwife fiddling with someone close to her, she felt very uncomfortable and didn't dare to think deeply about what the scene would be like.
Zheng Lin had never experienced a woman having a child, so it would not prevent him from hearing the panic in his wife's voice. He moved his heart, stopped the carriage, raised his hand and knocked on the car door.
Sang Ye thought something was wrong with the man, so he endured the discomfort and opened the car door. The next moment he came to the man's arms and pressed his head against the man's chin: "Be good, don't think about it and scare yourself. Wait for the day when you give birth, and make sure to guard you in front of your bed for your husband!"
Listening to the man's promise, Sang Ye's uneven heart suddenly became stable. She stretched out her hands to wrap her neck, and the words were unconsciously filled with a sense of coquettishness: "You said this yourself. If you can't do it, let me see how I deal with you."
Zheng Lin hugged her temperament and seemed to be more and more like a child's wife, and once again solemnly promised: "Do what you say for your husband."
Otherwise, you will be punished for being a husband for three months and you will not be allowed to sleep in bed, and you will never complain about being a husband.”
When Sang Ye heard this, he curled his lips: "You promise something else. I can trust you. If I don't sleep in a bed for three months, I'm afraid you won't believe it yourself."
Zheng Lin couldn't help but smile and kissed her: "I didn't expect my wife to know her husband so much. Since this is the case, the wife should believe that her husband can fulfill her previous promise."
Sang Ye nodded and pretended to believe it, but said in his heart: You are really not here that day, there is nothing we can do about it. Even if you feel uncomfortable, you won’t really blame you!
The Meng family was not too far away. The carriage was coming for half an hour. Seeing the carriage coming from afar, Meng uncle, who was basking in the sun at the door, saw it at a glance. He quickly poked Xu, who was eating melon seeds beside him, and then stood up to meet him.
Xu curled her lips, her face not very good. She just didn't know what she thought of, and her eyes lit up and hurriedly stood up and ran towards the yard.
When Sang Ye opened the car door, he happened to see Xu twisting his body and running into the yard. She thought Xu didn't welcome her, so she didn't think about it elsewhere.
"Uncle, happy new year!" Zheng Lin helped Sangye out of the carriage, and the couple greeted Mr. Meng who was greeting him.
The couple has a good impression of Meng Dajiu. Although they can't control their daughter-in-law, their values are normal. It is not easy for them to have been led by the abnormal Xu family for so many years.
"Okay, happy new year." Uncle Meng seemed very happy. After all, there was a bad day in the tea ceremony. He thought his nephew and his wife were used to it and would not come to pay New Year's greetings. Unexpectedly, the couple came, how could this make him unhappy!
The three of them walked into the room while talking. As soon as they crossed the threshold, they saw Xu hurriedly walking towards him. Behind her was a young woman with a woman combed her head and couldn't see clearly.
Sang Ye glanced briefly and thought it was a daughter-in-law Meng's uncle who had not visited his uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings. He was a little puzzled and didn't care.
However, the young woman seemed to have some awareness. She raised her head and looked at Sang Ye quickly. Her eyes were lingering in her body. A hint of jealousy flashed through her eyes, and then she quickly lowered her head and followed Xu, as if she had never given birth to anything.
Although Jingcha met the Meng family that day, she could not remember a few people in just a while, so she didn't know that this young woman was not the daughter-in-law of the Meng family she thought.
The couple also greeted Xu. However, this time, Xu's attitude was unexpectedly good. He smiled at Sang Ye, who had always been disgusted with him: "It's very cold today. Go to the corner of the wall to bask in the sun. I'll cook dumplings with you."
Xu's posture brought Sangye not to being flattered, but to being extremely horrified. She subconsciously looked at the man beside her, wanting to ask if her ears were wrong.
Zheng Lin was also extremely surprised, and did not show his face. He politely said to Xu: "No need for my aunt, there is something else at home. After we go to my second uncle and younger uncle's house, we will go back."
When Xu heard this, his face turned down: "What can you delay in cooking two bowls of dumplings? If you don't eat it, you will look down on my aunt and your uncle."
Uncle Meng also tried his best to persuade him, really wanting to keep his nephew for dinner.
All of them have come to this point. Zheng Lin, who is in the Chinese New Year, doesn't want to make each other look ugly. After asking his wife with his eyes, he has to nod: "Then I'll be my aunt."
Xu looked very happy. She pulled out the young woman behind her and said to Sang Ye with a smile on her face: "This is my niece Mei Zi, who is a few years older than you. If you young people have something to talk about, let her accompany you so that you won't be bored."
At this time, the woman called Mei Zi raised her head, showed her beautiful face, and took the initiative to say hello to Sang Ye: "Hello Sister Sang, if Sister Sang doesn't dislike me, just call me Sister Mei Zi."
Listening to the sound of "Sister Sang", somehow, a feeling of repulsion appeared in Sang Ye's heart. She just stretched out her hand and didn't hit the smiling person. She ignored the discomfort in her heart and showed a smile on her face: "How can all relatives dislike you? Then I'll call you Sister Meizi."
Meizi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, looking
I was even happier, so I took Sang Ye's arm warmly and aimed at her belly: "I heard from my aunt that Sister Sang is pregnant, Sister Sang is so lucky."
Looking at the ripe plums, Mangye secretly felt a little alert, but a little shyness appeared on his face, as if he was embarrassed to take the conversation.
Seeing this, Mei Zi's lowered eyebrows and eyes showed a hint of jealousy. When she looked up, the smile on the corner of her mouth became brighter.
Xu looked at the gentle two people in front of him, and the smile on his face became stronger. He said to Sang Ye and his wife: "Then you have a good chat. I'll cook dumplings first and come out to greet you later."
As he said that, Xu entered the kitchen with a small step, and soon the sound of ping-pong sounded in the kitchen.
My uncle Meng was very pleased with his wife's performance today and said to Zheng Lin and Sang Ye: "Your aunt is just a knife-like mouth and her heart is still very good. I know that you are here to pay New Year's greetings today. Last night, I specially stewed pork feet and added a dish to the lunch meal."
Sang Ye was not moved in his heart, and he gave his uncle Meng enough face: "My aunt has bothered her and her elders, and she has to take care of us juniors."
Zheng Lin didn't speak, but his expression was a little loose.
Seeing this, Uncle Meng thought that the unpleasant troubles of Jingcha that day could be revealed. He was flushed with joy and kept saying "Okay".
The sun is bright today and there is no wind. Mangye sat in the corner of the yard, basking in the sun slowly, which was very comfortable. Zheng Lin was called away by Uncle Meng alone, as if she wanted to talk about very important things.
Mangye leaned against the back of the chair, and her whole body unconsciously exuded a lazy aura. Of course, if no one around her was making noise, she would be even more satisfied.
Meizi didn't see the impatientness in Sang Ye's eyes. She kept asking in a very nice voice: "Sister Sang, your parents' business is so big. Will you hire someone to help again this spring?"
Sang Ye's eyebrows pounded, and his face looked embarrassed: "Sister Meizi, you also know that I am a married daughter. I can't get involved in my parents' affairs. I can only ask you about this matter, and I am not sure if it can be done."
Mei Zi's expression faded a little, and she still said beautifully: "It's okay, I just ask, it's better to be successful, it's nothing if I can't succeed, I won't blame you."
Sang Ye's lips twitched. This woman was Xu's niece, and her face was as big as Xu's. Is it true that anyone had a penny with her? Could it be that she thought she would take care of her emotions?
Thinking of this in my heart, Sang Ye didn't show any signs of it, but he just pretended to be curious and asked, "Sister Meizi, where is your husband's family? Why are you here to wish my uncle and aunt a happy new year today?"
Mei Zi's face froze, and then she showed a sad look: "I, my life is not as good as Sister Sang. I married a useless man. I am not afraid of Sister Sang's jokes when I say it. My husband was beaten by someone from my in-laws' family before. My aunt took some effort to bring me out, otherwise I would have been beaten to death by them."
Speaking of this, Meizi covered her face and cried, her voice sad and looked very pitiful.
"Sister Meizi, you"
Even if she was not interested in this woman, Sang Ye couldn't help but feel a little sympathy in her heart, but she didn't know how to comfort her. She has always looked down on men who are domestic violence, but in this era, it seems that men's domestic violence against women is natural and rarely paid attention to it.
But I once heard that a woman who was frequently abused by domestic violence could not bear it. One day, she threw a pack of rat poison into the soup of the man who abused her and poisoned the man to death. In the end, the woman was scolded as a vicious woman by someone.
Mei Zi cried happily for a while and gradually stopped her tears. She looked at Sang Ye and said embarrassedly: "I can't help but make Sister Sang laugh. I, I really can't help it."
Sang Ye shook his head and said he didn't mind. Seeing that Mei Zi's mood improved, he didn't bother to comfort her.
Mei Zi seemed to have found a leak and said miserably: "Sister Sang, you don't know what life I have lived in the past ten years. Marrying to such a family is like jumping into a fire pit. At first I thought that if I could have a child, maybe he wouldn't treat me like this. I didn't expect that his body would be ruined, and I couldn't do it in these years.
Being pregnant with a son and a half of your daughter.”
After saying that, her tears unconsciously remained. She noticed the coldness on her face. She hurriedly wiped it with her sleeves, and carefully glanced at Sang Ye, for fear that she would dislike her.
Looking at Mei Zi like this, even the most stern-hearted person couldn't help feeling pity. Sang Ye couldn't help but sigh as a woman, and finally spoke: "Since my aunt brought Sister Mei Zi home, Sister Mei Zi lived with peace of mind, but if Sister Mei Zi wanted to completely get rid of the current predicament, she had to stand up by herself."
Meizi was disdainful and thought Sang Ye was fooling her, and she felt grateful on her face: "Thank you, Sister Sang, you really mean to my heart! I always hate why I am not a man, otherwise I would not have suffered this sin."
Sang Ye sighed secretly, and thought that it was not good to say too much when they met, so he comforted her a few words on the surface, which temporarily stabilized Mei Zi's mood.
It took not much time to cook dumplings, and soon Xu came out with a tray. Zheng Lin and Meng uncle in the room heard the sound and walked out. Several people sat directly in the corner with bowls and started eating.
The dumplings have a thick skin, and the filling is too much, the meat is less, and the taste is just average. Mulberry leaves are not hungry at all, so after eating a few, they can't eat it anymore, and I'm embarrassed to put down the bowl.
Just when she was in a dilemma, she stretched out a hand in front of her to take over the bowl with most of the dumplings left. In the surprised gaze of Xu Meizi and his aunt and nephew, Zheng Lin ate all the bottom of the bowl of mulberry leaves without changing his face.
Mei Zi looked at Zheng Lin with a complicated expression. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't believe that this cold man would have eaten the bottom of his wife's bowl.
When she thought that this man almost became her husband, all the tenderness would be given to her, but in the end she was cheaper to another woman. Her unwillingness and jealousy grew like wild weeds, and she could hardly control her emotions and threw the bowls and chopsticks in her hand out.
She endured it and endured it, restrained all her emotions and silently ate dumplings in her mouth, but her eyes flashed with ambition that she had never noticed.
After eating the dumplings, the couple politely declined the meals from uncle Meng and Xu, and stood up to go to the house of Meng Erwei, which was not far away. The houses of uncle Meng Erwei and uncle Meng were close together. The couple put down the New Year's greetings and greeted the two uncles. After drinking a bowl of tea, they stood up and offered goodbye.
Uncle Meng and Uncle Meng could not keep anyone, so they had to ask their wives to take out the red envelopes they had prepared for Sang Ye, and stuffed them into Sang Ye's hand, and watched the couple leave.
As soon as the carriage left the village, Sang Ye opened the car door and threw himself on Zheng Lin's back and whined: "My second aunt and younger aunt both gave red envelopes, but my eldest aunt didn't give them. I forgot about this. This time I lost a lot, and I lost a full 200 million yuan, which is enough to buy a bunch of diapers for our children!"
After hearing his wife's complaints, Zheng Lin almost burst into laughter, turned his head and touched his wife's annoyed cheek and suggested, "Why don't we go back and ask my aunt to come over with the red envelope?"
Sang Ye gave him a blank look: "If you want to go, I can't afford to lose this person."
Zheng Lin shook his head helplessly and said dotingly: "It's obviously you who are sorry for the two hundred cents. You are kind-hearted and kind to think of your husband. You are complaining about your husband and embarrassing you. What's the reason?"
"Hmph, I haven't heard a word, don't reason with your wife?" Sang Ye poked the man's sexy chin and brought out a very classic joke in his previous life: "I heard that men who reason with your wife were extinct in the end."
As a man who grew up under the idea of male superiority and female inferiority, he could not understand the connotation of this joke. Zheng Lin only thought this was a fallacy that his wife thought of herself, and couldn't help but scold: "It's enough to say this in front of her husband in the future, don't say it in front of outsiders."
Sang Ye knew what the man meant, and hugged his neck and said, "I'm not stupid. In addition to saying this to you, a man, can I also talk to a woman?" I'm afraid that if the woman hears it, she should treat herself as a lunatic!
