Qi Shiqin walked out of the door, and a quarrel between men and women came faintly behind him.
"I said what's the matter with you? The sixth brother, he left home for so long and finally came back, and now he is still visiting me. What's wrong with me giving him something?" Qi Sanlang became a little angry, he is not tantrum Man, suddenly speaking so loudly, his lips were shaking.
"You also said me, can you be hard on yourself, how did they treat you before, don't you know in your heart? Our family did all the dirty and tiring work. In the end, we might not be full after eating. Now people see. When our family was ready, we rushed over, and the attitude was so arrogant, as if our family should owe them."
He Yue comes from modern times, and naturally differs from Qi Sanlang's thinking. She hates Zhou Cicui, so she doesn't want the slightest contact with people, but she is also willing to take a little bit of silver every month to fulfill her responsibilities.
However, Qi Sanlang grew up in an environment where filial piety is regarded as the heaven. The Qi family brothers are filial to their parents, so he can't forgive himself for being such a mother. And he also knows that in the days his family is now, there is no shortage of good fish and meat, but his wife is only willing to give his mother a small amount of copper each month, which can't help but feel torment in his heart.
But all the money in the family was earned by his wife's skills, so he couldn't say how much money to give his mother, so he had to be more silent.
"But the sixth brother didn't do anything to be sorry for me before. Now it's just coming over to see me. Isn't it enough for me to give my own brother?" It is said that the brothers rarely have direct conflicts, but just married. After the daughter-in-law, there were all kinds of conflicts.
He Yue smiled and said, "Xiang Gong, you only remember that you don't have much contact with your sixth brother, but you don't want a book to cost sixty or seventy. Every time your mother publishes so many books, how much money is required, and where does the money come from? Are you here? Excluding these, the sixth brother's tuition, pen and ink, how many pieces of good clothes a year, etc., how much are these?"
"If it weren't for such a big expense, why would our family be so miserable."
Doesn't everyone live like this? Besides, isn't the tax and corvage of the family all exempted by the sixth brother? Otherwise, the assignment of the corvee will fall on him, maybe just like the few people in the village who have no money to go to serve, die outside. Qi Sanlang opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything, turned around and continued to do his own thing.
He Yue stood there and looked at her husband's back. She sighed softly. The husband was too soft, but he was good to her. There was nothing to think about, and he was not patriarchal. She treated both daughters. Very loving.
Compared with the previous life, it is much better now. She believes that in a while, her husband should understand her.
…
When Wei Jingshu woke up, there was no one on the bed, and the sun outside was already high.
Thinking of the hot scene last night in his mind, his face flushed red, and he secretly cursed Qi Shiqin as shameless, and treated him like that as soon as he got home. Looking at the traces on his body again, he curled his mouth and laughed uncontrollably, thinking that the guy must have been in love with him for so many years, otherwise it would not be so intense.
Thinking of this, his courage became stronger, and he was full of confidence all at once.
So Qi Shiqin went home and saw that yesterday he gave him a sharp look at his well-behaved little cat brother: "I'm hungry and haven't eaten yet. And my waist is going to die of soreness."
Qi Shiqin touched his nose nonchalantly, and said, "Then you should wash first, and I'll go to the kitchen to bring you the food."
Seeing Qi Shiqin listen to him honestly, Wei Jingshu smiled triumphantly, and his peach blossom eyes were even more radiant and beautiful.
After that, Wei Jingshu cautiously tried to test Qi Shiqin's bottom line and kept calling people. Seeing that Qi Shiqin was not impatient at all, he became happier and became more troubled.
"Do you want to eat the dim sum from Hefangzhai in the city?" Qi Shiqin raised his eyebrows. He could see that he was tossing him, but he was not angry. Take a look at your father-in-law and mother-in-law. Now, aren't you sore back, I'll rub it for you."
Speaking of his parents, Wei Jingshu has disappeared, and his husband has returned. The news must be told to Zhang so that his mother will not worry about him every day.
After rubbing Wei Jingshu's waist for a while, Qi Shiqin planned to go out. The whole family was busy in the field, and he was too embarrassed to stay at home so comfortably.
After finding a back basket, Qi Shiqin was ready to come out, and the little dumpling followed him like a tail.
I greeted everyone in the village along the way. The people in the village knew that the Qi family's youngest son had returned since yesterday. After so long, the gossip of the year has faded, and no one is muttering.
When he got to the ground, Zhou Cuicui saw her younger son coming: "Xiao Liu, what are you doing here? The sun is so poisonous now, don't expose you to the sun, go back and rest."
"Mother, I'm okay, there is no reason why my mother is working outside and my son is resting." Qi Shiqin said with a smile. In the past, he might suffer from the work of weak scholars, but now he is strong and physically strong, and it is not so affected.
After he went to the ground, the leaves on the corn stalks scratched his face a bit uncomfortable. This was the first time he did farm work, and he did a good job after getting acquainted with it.
Except for Boss Qi who went to work as a clerk in the city, most of the others were there, including a few small ones. They all went to school in the village, so they tried to recognize some characters, and they would leave their children behind whenever they needed to work.
Towards noon, Zhou Cuicui said: "My second child, it's almost time. You can go back and cook. Today everyone is tired, so you should be better."
What everyone is tired! In the past, no matter how tired I was, I never saw you say this. It's not that I feel sorry for my baby son. Wu Clan slandered in his heart, and said to his face, "I see, mother."
Wu is the daughter of a scholar in the village, and a scholar who teaches children literacy in the village school. Qi Erlang learned carpentry back then, and when he was working at the Xiucai's house, he met the Wu family over and over again. Qi Erlang had a plan for being raped, and it didn't take long for him to have affection with the daughter of other talented scholars, and then it was a matter of course that he began to marry him.
On the way home, Wu's thoughts became more and more angry.
The Qi family originally took turns to cook the food in the order of the daughters-in-law. They bullied Heyue's bun. Later, He Yue left and came to Wei Jingshu. This was not as good as bullying, and he couldn't even cook.
At first, Wei Jingshu asked the maid to do it, and it didn't take long for the maid to be sent back by Zhou Cuicui. When it was Wei Jingshu's turn, he didn't do it, and he didn't listen to others' teachings, and went straight back to his parents' house.
But this time, it was already the sixth room's turn, but Zhou Cuicui felt sorry for her little son, so she didn't mention this, and let the Wu family come back directly. Wu naturally felt uncomfortable.
She wondered who was not a young man! When he got home, he said something ugly while cooking. Wei Jingshu knew that Qi Shiqin liked him. At the moment, he was full of confidence, and the two of them were on the bargain.
So when the Qi family came home, they found that the atmosphere was not right! Mr. Wu just brought the food, put the bowls and chopsticks away, and did not speak.
Without seeing his husband, Qi Shiqin said to the little dumpling who followed him: "Son, go and ask your mother to come out for dinner."
After everyone was ready, he discovered that there was a missing pair of tableware and chopsticks. Zhou Cuicui didn't know the reason for it. He just said: "Why is there missing a pair of tableware and chopsticks? You can get them from Mr. Wu." , Of course she went directly to the client.
Wu smiled and said, "Mother, there are no children. I think these are enough. Everyone is working under the sun. Some people hide in the house and do not do anything. If you don't do it, don't do it. Eat it, isn't this the rule you made before, mother?"
The room was quiet for a while.
Zhou Cuicui didn't want her little son to be embarrassed, so she said, "It's okay if you don't do it for a while. In the afternoon, let Jingshu work with you to fix the corn and peel off the corn."
"Then the young man must be willing to do it. Don't go back to her family in the afternoon. We made our family treat him harshly."
Wei Jingshu didn't answer, he wouldn't do it, he just looked at Qi Shiqin with wet eyes.
"Okay." Qi Shiqin did not change his face and pulled Xiao Fulang over and sat in his seat, and was about to go to the kitchen to scoop him up: "In the afternoon, he went with me to chop some firewood and come back. I see the firewood at home. Running out."
Wei Jingshu was not right about this incident, but Qi Shiqin was not at all dissatisfied. Ever since he knew him, Wei Jingshu has been well-dressed, and someone is waiting at any time. Marrying him made him wronged.
After returning to the house, Wei Jingshu pursed his mouth, obviously dissatisfied. Qi Shiqin stepped forward and held the person in his arms: "Don't be angry, okay?"
"A few of them don't like me, I don't want to pay attention to them." Wei Jingshu looked disdainfully, then looked at Qi Shiqin closely, and said coquettishly: "I'll say it first, I won't talk to you. I went to the farm together, what should I do if my face is badly tanned? And my hands will become rough by then, and you will feel uncomfortable, don't you?"
Seeing his pitiful appearance, Qi Shiqin kissed him amusedly, and said indulgently: "Okay, it's up to you."
When the sun subsided and the outside was not so hot, Qi Shiqin took Wei Jingshu and the small dumplings to go out. Wei Jingshu was naturally playing. He walked leisurely in a row, and the little dumpling behind him brought a bamboo tube of water to his father. In contrast, Wei Jingshu is more like a child.
Chopping wood is easy for Qi Shiqin. After he has cut enough, he stops moving. Picking up the bow and arrow, he reached the depths of the forest, and soon came out with a pheasant and two rabbits.
"Son, come and see what Dad has brought back." Qi Shiqin said with a smile.
Qi Ge immediately walked over with his short legs, looked at the prey in his father's hand, and opened his mouth in surprise: "Wow…Daddy is so powerful, this is so big." Although this is not worthwhile for Qi Ge in his previous life. Mention, but as the little champion of daddy, he naturally gives face.
Qi Ge's small expression successfully satisfied Qi Shiqin's vanity. He touched his son's hair and instantly became energetic.
Wei Jingshu's reaction was exactly the same as that of Xiaoduanzi. He saw that it was his own person, and he couldn't help but look at Qi Shiqin.
When he returned home, Qi Shiqin put the prey in the back basket and let Wei Jingshu carry it on his back, while he carried the firewood on his back, the family of three went back talking and laughing.
