Chapter 248 Fat Can't Wear It
Zhulan coughed, Li's heart trembled, and she was even more aggrieved. Mother didn't like her anymore, so she said dryly, "Sister-in-law doesn't have much money, this is a kindness, don't dislike it."
Mrs. Dong didn't dislike it, she didn't look forward to it, so it was a surprise to have a meeting gift, the box was open, and the head flowers from the jewelry shop in the town came from the south, and they cost two coins each. Mrs. Li, a rare meeting ceremony.
Dong accepted it with a smile, "I like it very much. I gave it to my sister-in-law. I don't know what my sister-in-law likes. Don't be disgusted by my sister-in-law."
Mrs. Li really didn't expect that there would be a gift in return. Only then did she notice that there were a few small boxes and purses on the tray that Mrs. Dong brought, and she took them happily, as long as she didn't lose money, "Don't dislike it, don't dislike it."
Opening it, the silver hairpin smiled even more foolishly.
Chang Lian knew this would happen, so he took Mrs. Dong to meet his second brother and sister-in-law.
The fan sent by Mrs. Zhao, "Sister-in-law, I embroider better. Don't dislike the fan I made myself."
Mrs. Dong also has quite a few fans from Jiangnan, and she knew that Mrs. Zhao's embroidery is good, but she didn't expect it to be so good. She smiled and said, "I like it very much, and I also like female celebrities. I will bother my second sister-in-law more in the future."
Zhao lowered her head and said, "You are always welcome."
Mrs. Dong returned the gift with a silver hairpin as well.
Then they recognized people one by one. Xuehan and Dong had a deep friendship, and they got Yu's earrings, Yushuang and Yulu, both were a pair of silver stud earrings, and Mingyun, Mingteng, and Mingrui got purses, and the purses contained two money of silver.
The recognition was over, and everyone dispersed.
Zhulan called Li Shi and Zhao Shi, "You two wait for a while."
Mrs. Dong glanced back, Zhulan said: "Mrs. Dong, stay too!"
Zhulan got up and went into the room, quickly took out two red cloth bags, opened a red cloth bag to signal Li Shi to come forward, Zhulan stretched out her hand to hold Li Shi's hand, then paused, her wrist was so fat that she couldn't carry it. After entering, Zhulan silently let go of Li Shi's hand, and handed the red cloth bag to Li Shi, "In the past, when the new dynasty was established, my mother didn't dare to make a high profile, and she never gave you any good things. This supply is for you. But you don't seem to be able to take it."
Lee, "..."
The excited and moved mood disappeared in an instant, and my mother didn't have to say a word in the future.
Dong pressed the corner of his mouth,
The mother-in-law is too attached to the sister-in-law's heart.
Zhulan ignored Mrs. Li's mother-in-law bullying me again, and opened another bag for Mrs. Zhao, "When you entered the house, you didn't have a betrothal gift or a matchmaker. I have wronged you. In the future, your sister-in-law and younger siblings will have them. You have it too, mother chose a date to write a marriage letter for you and the second child, and it will be three days later, two days after your younger siblings return home."
After Zhulan finished speaking, she said to Mrs. Li: "I'll check how much meat is left in the house later. Is it enough to prepare a few tables of good dishes? If not, you can buy it with some money."
The first time Li saw Zhao, she didn't hide her face and sob, but raised her head and cried. She didn't think how beautiful a beauty is when she sheds tears. "Mom, leave the food to me, and I will definitely bring out the housekeeping book to congratulate my siblings."
Mrs. Zhao couldn't bear it anymore, she threw herself into her mother-in-law's arms and wept. As a woman, who doesn't want to be married by a medium, and who doesn't want to be recognized by her in-law's family with the marriage certificate in hand.
She had no choice but to protect herself while escaping famine, and exchanged herself with food. She lost her qualifications back then.
This is still the kindness of the Zhou family, and the husband protects her. Otherwise, a daughter-in-law who is exchanged will be a daughter-in-law if it sounds good, but it will be a coolie if it is not. If you really sell you, no one will care.
There are also other exchanged daughter-in-laws in Zhoujia Village. The mother-in-law and husband beat or scold them. They eat less and work more. There is no natal family to rely on.
She has already had two children, and her mother-in-law is very kind to her. She still manages the monthly expenses of the family, lives in a big house, wears unpatched clothes, has new clothes every season, and wears jewelry every month. She can save money, she is already very contented.
I really didn't expect that her mother-in-law would make up the marriage certificate for her, and her mother-in-law was the third person who treated her so well besides her own mother and husband-in-law.
Zhulan felt sour when she was cried by Mrs. Zhao. This is different from Mrs. Zhao who wiped her tears and sobbed before. Mrs. Zhao cried for the first time. It was not easy for Mrs. Zhao. She had to learn to protect herself at a young age, and experienced her family selling her mother , the mother who protected her is gone, she can only live on her own, she doesn't want to be sold to the dirty place of the brothel, she is afraid that she can only bear it by herself, and she must always be on guard against anyone, she has been holding back in her heart and has never dared to vent, even face to face To Changyi, Zhao has always been very strong.
Her actions today touched the weakest part of Mrs. Zhao's heart.
Zhu Lan stroked Zhao Shi's hair, "Cry, it's fine if you cry."
Only then did Dong regain consciousness from the face of the second sister-in-law, she was stunned, she had seen beauties before, there were beauties in the county, and there were many beautiful ladies from merchants, but she was as beautiful as the second sister-in-law. Seeing it, it's no wonder that the second sister-in-law kept bowing her head and dared not raise her head to meet people.
Mrs. Li wiped her tears, and seeing Mrs. Dong looking at Mrs. Zhao, thinking of Mrs. Dong's background, she blocked her sight and stared at her small eyes, "This is our family's secret. Once you enter our house, you are not allowed to tell it. Otherwise, I'll be in a hurry with you."
Dong was stunned for a moment. She saw her sister-in-law complaining about her second sister-in-law when she was eating, but now she actually took care of her. Although she didn't understand what her sister-in-law was thinking, she was moved, her eyes were soft, "Sister-in-law, I won't tell anyone."
Mrs. Li was worried, "Your parents won't allow it either."
Mrs. Dong smiled briskly, she knew what to say and what not to say, and the second sister-in-law was something that shouldn't be said. Mother had already told her that as a daughter-in-law, she couldn't go back to her mother's house and say everything, and she The education from childhood has more vision than the elder sister-in-law. It is true that the matter of the second sister-in-law cannot be said, at least the father-in-law’s family is easy to suffer if they can’t protect them. "I won’t tell."
Mrs. Zhao stopped crying after hearing this, and looked at her sister-in-law with tears in her eyes. She really didn't expect her sister-in-law to protect her so much. Although her sister-in-law cheated on her from time to time, she is a good person and she can tolerate her.
Mrs. Li covered her heart, "Sisters and sisters, don't look at me anymore, I can't take it anymore as a woman, girl, I'll go and see how much meat is left."
Bamboo Orchid, "..."
At the moment when she was obviously very moved, the atmosphere disappeared as soon as Li Shi opened her mouth.
Mrs. Zhao stopped crying, Zhulan didn't plan to give out a second gift, she planned to give it to Mrs. Zhao in the evening three days later, Mrs. Zhao should go back to her yard to cry for the second time.
Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Dong left together, and Zhulan went back to the house to change her clothes. Mrs. Zhao could really cry, her clothes were all wet.
Zhou Shuren lay on his side, watching Zhulan change clothes with the corners of her mouth turned up, her eyes were gentle, Zhulan's heart was kind and soft, Zhulan put the whole family in her heart, and she remembered everyone's birthday in the family. That said, although the Zhou family's children divided Zhulan's heart, what he likes is the kind-hearted Zhulan. His vision is really good!
It's a pity that I can't go back to modern times. If I can go back to modern times, it would be even better without the Zhou family's eyesores. He still despises them too much.
Zhulan changed clothes and was about to sew when there was a knock on the door, "Mother, I have something to do with you."
