Chapter 118 The Widow's Craft(1/3)
In the west wing, Qin Huairu and his family were also eating.
Jia Zhang sat on the west side facing the door, Qin Huairu sat on the east side opposite, and the two children sat on the north and south side, just surrounding a gray wooden square table.
I opened the door just now, and the aroma from outside rushed in.
Banggan smelled the aroma of dumplings and swallowed secretly. He was usually afraid of comparison. Looking at the pickles on the table, Wowo felt a little hard to swallow.
Xiaodang was biting with chopsticks and touching the bowl of paste on the table with one hand to warm her hands. The little girl took two bites and then stopped eating.
Originally, Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang didn't talk to each other, but they stopped talking much since yesterday, and Qin Huairu was happy to be quiet.
Mrs. Jia Zhang smelled the aroma wafting from the outside. The dumplings were originally delicious, and Lou Xiaoe's craftsmanship was not exquisite enough. Naturally, they dispersed a lot as soon as the pot was boiled. The whole thing was like stewing a pot of broth. The smell
Naturally, he is very domineering.
She took a hard bite of the wowotou and raised her eyes to look at Qin Huairu opposite. Now her daughter-in-law looked at her nose, her nose and her mouth, and her mouth looked at her heart. She looked completely indifferent, as if
I can't see her as a person.
Mrs. Jia Zhang was very suspicious that her daughter-in-law had found someone outside, otherwise she wouldn't be so tough now. She felt so uncomfortable that she couldn't even ask her. If she opened up, there would be no room for her.
She couldn't understand the reason, but she was familiar with the process of quarrels. She could say anything, so it was almost time to take action. She didn't dare to break up with Qin Huairu.
"This uncle's family also makes dumplings, which are stuffed with meat. This is what they ate yesterday. What kind of life are they living?"
Although Jia Zhang said this, she was secretly observing Qin Huairu's expression. She was going to find someone. If she really found someone who dared to steal her daughter-in-law, it would be a fatal matter. She would have to make a scene.
Come!
Qin Huairu listened to the yin and yang words for three months and knew what her mother-in-law was thinking. She ignored Jia Zhang and touched the back of Xiaodang's head sideways and asked: "What's wrong, Xiaodang, why don't you eat?"
"this……"
Xiaodang bit his chopsticks, not sure whether he should say anything.
Qin Huairu waited patiently.
Banggeng over there hurriedly said, "We set off the firecrackers for Uncle Chuanzong, and he gave us 40 cents, so my sister and I bought snacks to eat."
He originally wanted to buy two boxes of firecrackers to play with his usual friends, but today he put so many boxes in a row, and the novelty was lost a lot.
Xiaodang didn't really want to watch the fireworks, so he took his sister to buy a bunch of snacks. After the two of them finished eating, they went home. Xiaodang's appetite was small, so naturally he couldn't eat when he got home.
"Forty cents!"
There was no movement from Qin Huairu's side, but there was an exclamation from Jia Zhang's side.
Qin Huairu worked for less than 40 cents for a day's work, and the meal they ate was only 10 cents. At this time, the gifts were only 10 cents or 20 cents, and she gave her children 40 cents as pocket money! They can have a one dollar pocket money a year.
That’s pretty good.
Mrs. Jia Zhang felt that there was something fishy about the designation, and her face instantly dropped.
Qin Huairu listened carefully and felt very warm in her heart. She really did exist in this person's heart, otherwise it would be impossible to play with her children.
As for helping to set off cannons, it is just to make the children happy.
These people love to show off and look for a sense of superiority. It is only "fair" if they don't have any good things and others don't have them. They have to have some of the fireworks to be happy.
The reason why I do this is completely out of love for my family and friends. I treat them as one of my own. Only with this foundation can we have fun together. The salary is a reward.
Qin Huairu tapped the bowl of Banggeng with her chopsticks and reprimanded: "Eat it if you can. If you can't eat it, just sit down and shut your mouth. Your grandma won't like to hear this person's name."
Bangge's little face was a little tangled. He also knew that grandma didn't like this person. After all, he often heard bad things about Yi Chuanzong at home, but he felt that this uncle was very good and the best person among all outsiders.
Of course he didn't dare to refute his mother, so he could only eat with his head down. He had already eaten enough, and the snacks were not enough. He was not full yet.
Jia Zhang's face was not so good-looking, "Eat if you can. If you can't eat, just sit down and shut your mouth."
This refers to the way Sang scolds Huai and makes her listen, insinuations and irritating people.
Is it true that if we can eat together, we eat together, but if we can’t eat together, we take the child with us? Is this a threat to her?
Mrs. Jia Zhang was filled with anger. Her daughter-in-law, who had been quite docile before, suddenly became so secretive that she could only endure it.
It makes people feel so comfortable when they can serve them, and when they have bad intentions, they feel like they are stuck in their throats.
Mrs. Jia Zhang was so comfortable being served before that she forgot that this widow was very shrewd!
She had forgotten how much hardship it took for two people to fight against one another.
When she brought Jia Dongxu along with her, she was brave and resourceful, with a fierce and fierce appearance without any loss, and her heart was full of calculations.
The status of a widow makes people outside gossip. Life is the best teacher. She can easily learn to observe people's expressions when she sees them. When she gets around among neighbors, she becomes eloquent.
At that time, Jia Dongxu was her best support, and she could endure no matter how hard or tired she was.
However, this son has grown up for more than ten years, and her behavior has changed a lot since she straightened up.
There is no more enjoyable and effective way than having fun.
She seemed to be madly venting her previously suppressed feelings, which made people fearful whenever she spoke out. She was also used to this trick.
At the same time, she has not forgotten her speaking skills, her words are yin and yang, and her words are sharp.
It was her skills that led to the wrong partner, Qin Huairu, who was also a widow, kept teasing her like this, accelerating the little woman's growth.
It is hard enough for a family that has been working together to survive the prejudice and strange looks from outsiders. If this family can stay stable for two years, share the joys and sorrows, and have a deep relationship with each other, they will also take care of each other's feelings in some matters.
.
Even if Qin Huairu feels uncomfortable outside, at least his family will understand and support him. This person has not been forced to a dead end, and he can tolerate anything and get over it.
She may do anything for the sake of her family. If she makes a mistake later and treats her family members who have deep feelings for her, she will naturally feel guilty and will not think of abandoning anyone.
But now everything is reversed.
Jia Zhang was counting on Qin Huairu, but she still treated her well and treated her like an outsider. Her comments at home were even worse than those outside, and no one could bear it.
Qin Huairu has learned a lot of craftsmanship from Jia Zhang these days, and now Jia Zhang started to taste it. But it was too much and it was not easy to adapt to it suddenly, and her heart, which had been happy for more than ten years, suddenly became clogged.
The more she thought about it, the more angry she became. Jia Zhang did not dare to lose her temper at Qin Huairu, so she could only scold outsiders, "You said that Yi Zhonghai, as the eldest man in the courtyard, sees Tian'er's cooking skills, how can he let outsiders eat?
?He is an eighth-level fitter who has no worries about food and clothing, and he doesn’t consider the feelings of his neighbors, so he does this like a big man?"
"There is also Yi Chuanzong's rice pail. He ate the first wild boar as quickly as possible. How can one eat if he smells this smell all day long? It's so much in one meal, but it doesn't matter if he skips one bite. You can just take some.
Let my cockroach eat enough, my grandson is growing strong."
Qin Huairu was speechless for a while. Is this someone else's problem?
Not to mention that they have this relationship now, even when they didn't have this relationship, people would take things from here.
Because she was a pregnant woman and a widow, the people in the yard gave her the most things.
She loved the child, so she divided half of it and ate it closely with the child. As a result, the old woman was also greedy and stared at her half.
She is a village girl who comes from a village and can endure hardships. If she really wants to eat by herself, she can just not eat. But she still has to feed Sophora japonica. What will happen to the child who is undernourished?
In a few months, she had lost fifteen pounds, which was five pounds lighter than when she was not pregnant. At this time, there was not much fat in the body, and her measurements were much smaller, and even her winter clothes were too small.
The wind is coming in.
The stickman on the other side lowered his head and his little face became tangled.
If he was talking about outsiders, he felt there was nothing wrong with it.
But when it comes to Yi Chuanzong, he is relatively close to him, so he will naturally consider others and be fair. This makes him feel that there is something wrong with his grandmother's words.
Of course, Bangge also wanted to eat dumplings, but he had a lot of fun today. He had a good impression of Yi Chuanzong in his heart, and he also wanted to understand something.
He raised his head and said dissatisfiedly: "Grandma, those are other people's things. We didn't do anything. Why should they give us things? If we take other people's things for no reason, isn't that considered stealing?"
After saying Bang Gang, it felt right and there was no problem with the logic. He picked up the steamed buns of Bangzi Noodles and smiled happily, "Actually, mom's steamed buns are also quite delicious. This time, there is a red date on the buns. Want me.
, I don’t want to give it to others.”
Mrs. Jia Zhang was choked by a sentence and couldn't speak. She looked at Banggeng with her mouth open and was a little dazed. After reacting, she couldn't help but scolded: "Silly grandson, I was thinking of getting you something to eat. You
You're a little heartless person." As he spoke, he nodded Banggeng's head with his finger.
Bangge tilted his head when he was nodded, and just curled his lips. Such a big kid accepted death. According to his current knowledge, he felt that he was right at the moment.
Qin Huairu couldn't help but laugh when she heard Banggeng's words, but her smile was a bit bitter, so she could only add sweet dates to her children's nests, because she, as a mother, was not that capable.
"Mom will always add red dates when steaming steamed buns for you from now on."
Bangge nodded happily. Adults' affirmation is a great encouragement to children.
Mrs. Jia Zhang will not admit that she is wrong. This child has not tasted the sweetness, otherwise he would not have said such words. It tastes delicious when he eats it. How much is face worth? Right or wrong?
Is it important?
But she also knew that she might not come out if she went, and she didn't want to make a fuss about it, so she turned around and said, "Go and order some dumplings for your child. They make so many, so it's good to order some soup.
I just heard Lou Xiao'e shouting there, 'It's all broken.' A woman who can't even make dumplings and do needlework...is just like a rich lady."
The title behind this is completely sarcastic. How can someone call her a rich lady these days?
Qin Huairu sat eating and had no intention of asking for it.
Let her ask for it?
She could go if the two of them had nothing to do with each other.
To be continued...
