After hearing Qi's words, Shunniang's expression changed, and she said angrily: "She doesn't want to live anymore, does she? Which birthday material shop did she go to?"

It was the first time for Mrs. Qi to see Shunniang so angry, as if she wanted to eat people, and hurriedly said: "There are only two longevity food stores in the town, one is at the east end of the town, and the other is at the west end of the town. It should be going to the house on the east end."

Shunniang asked again, "How long have you been away?"

Qi Shi: "It's been about half an hour."

When Shunniang heard this, she was a little anxious, which meant that her cheap mother had been away for about an hour, and the longevity shop in the east of Yangliu Town was not far from Xi's residence, and it took only 10 minutes to walk there. Can't do it.Maybe Mrs. Liu has already picked out the coffin at this time, and asked the guys in the longevity shop to help deliver the coffin home, and once it is delivered to the home, it will make the whole Yangliu town see the joke of Xi's family.Anyone would say that when he married a daughter-in-law, he forgot his mother and was not filial, so her old mother would prepare a coffin for him.At that time, I will be blamed for being unfilial, and Xie Erniang will definitely be implicated, so she and Xie Erniang will become the targets of everyone in this town.If that's the case, I really don't want to live in the same room with her, maybe I will separate the family, or I will leave home with Xie Erniang and go to rent a house in Bianliang City to live a happy life together.

"I'll go find her!" After Shunniang finished speaking, she asked Xie Erniang to wait for her at home to help her sister-in-law cook, and then she hurried out.

Along the way, she was thinking why her cheap mother was so ignorant, why she had such a strong desire to control her children, didn't she ever think of falling out with her, denying her as a mother, and even Did you stop raising her?Or, she wanted to label herself and Xie Erniang as disobedient, and use this to subdue the two of them and make them obey her obediently.Also, she made such a fuss, she didn't give herself and Xie Erniang any face at all, it was only the first day after the wedding, if she was really a son, would she dare to make such a fuss?Don't leave a way out for your son and daughter-in-law?

It seems that in her heart, she regards herself as a daughter who can earn money disguised as a man. For her daughter, she believes that she will marry in the future, and marriage is the final destination of a woman.But now that she agrees to marry Xie Erniang, she doesn't take it seriously at all, but she just wants to follow her, let herself earn more money for the family, and earn a fortune for the Xi family.What's more, Shunniang guessed that Liu always thought that the original body was honest and obedient, and she changed suddenly after changing the core. She hasn't adapted to it yet, so she used the feudal parents' tricks to deal with herself, thinking that she would be tough , I will subdue myself.

For such a mother, Shunniang really felt chilled, she felt that no matter what, she had to make it clear to the cheap mother, if she continued to mess around, then don't blame herself for being cruel to separate the family, and even sever the mother-daughter relationship with her.If she is not afraid of making a fuss and revealing that she is a woman, then she will not care about this family at all. She will take Xie Erniang and leave here to seek a living elsewhere. She feels that with her own ability, the life between her and Xie Erniang It shouldn't be too bad.She hoped that the cheap mother wouldn't really push herself to that point, otherwise she wouldn't be able to fall behind.

Hurriedly walking to the birthday material shop at the east end of the town, Shun Niang ignored the guy who greeted her outside, walked in directly, and then saw her old mother standing in front of an unpainted coffin, really bargaining with the boss .

The owner of the birthday material shop kept waving his hands and said: "If you don't sell it at this price, I can't sell it even if you spend it here until the Chinese New Year. The price is too low. I want to buy this coffin for three hundred Wen..."

Hearing this, Shunniang couldn't help but twitch her lips, she thought, how could she forget, even if she is a cheap girl who buys a few eggplants and sweet potatoes on weekdays, she still has to negotiate the price for a while, let alone such a " Big item", if she really wanted to buy it, it would take an hour or two to negotiate the price with the boss.

Fortunately, she was still negotiating the price, and didn't bring home this "big thing" that showed her disobedience, exposed the discord between Xi's family, and made people in Yangliu Town laugh, otherwise the conflict would be really big, and it would be too late. It is not easy to recover.

Shunniang felt that she hadn't pushed herself to the point of nowhere. She really couldn't separate the family, regardless of the life and death of her mother and sister-in-law, as well as her nephew and niece.After all, she also knew that if she really separated from her mother and sister-in-law, their lives would be difficult, not about money, but about women and children, the old and the young, and they would be bullied.

"Mom! Come back with me!" Niang Shun stepped forward, directly grabbed her arm and dragged it out.

Mrs. Liu quit and was unwilling to leave.

Shunniang then said: "Let's talk about it when we go back, we have lunch."

Mrs. Liu still had a dull face, pursed her lips, kicked her feet on the ground, unwilling to leave.

Shunniang saw that talking to her didn't work, so she said to her with a livid face: "If you insist on doing this and disgust me so much, then we will separate. I will live alone with my wife, and you and my sister-in-law still have Kecheng. What do they think? Live as you want! I mean what I say! If you want to do something else, and you don’t like this stable life enough, you can do it as hard as you can, and you will be happy when you are gone. Already!"

After speaking, she let go of her arm and walked out.

The owner of the birthday material store knew about Shunniang, and after hearing what Shunniang said, he guessed that there was a conflict between mother and child, so Mrs. Liu came to his store to buy a coffin, and wanted to threaten his son to listen to it. her.As for why the son listened to her, it was probably because the son married a daughter-in-law and came in and was kind to the daughter-in-law. Liu, the mother-in-law, was not happy about it. Protecting the new daughter-in-law, the mother-in-law got into trouble...

This kind of thing, the owner of the longevity material shop who is over half a century old has seen a lot and heard a lot.

After Shunniang left Mrs. Liu and left angrily, he stepped forward to persuade Mrs. Liu not to be angry with his only son. He said that he also knew that "Xi Erlang" was hardworking and smart, and he was good at business. Well, I married the daughter of Xie Yi, a local upper-class family, as his wife. Then the Xie family gave their daughter so much dowry, who wouldn't be jealous.However, Mrs. Liu, the mother-in-law, is not satisfied, and is still tossing around like this. He also knew that the Xi family married a daughter-in-law in Yangliu Town yesterday, and it was only the next day. No wonder her son was so angry about buying a coffin.

He persuaded Mrs. Liu: "You have to understand that your son is not easy, the whole family is supported by him, if it is really troublesome and he separates the family from you, will your life be better? If you are ruthless, your family is ruined, you are old and poor, and your old age is bleak, no one will pity you!"

In fact, Mrs. Liu doesn't understand this truth. She took the money to buy a coffin in the longevity material store today, and she didn't really want to buy a coffin to go back. She just wanted to scare Shun Niang, and then went to the birthday material store to coax herself go back.In that case, she, the mother-in-law, will move back for a while, and she will have face with the two daughters-in-law.It's really because what Shunniang said this morning to defend Erniang Xie made her lose face too much, and the two daughters-in-law heard it, so she couldn't get over her old face.

So, she purposely chatted with the store owner in the longevity shop, just waiting for Shunniang to come. Unexpectedly, she finally waited for Shunniang to come, but Shunniang didn't have the patience to coax herself, and finally said even more exaggerated words , which made her even more sad.Seeing Shunniang throwing herself away angrily, the words of comfort from the owner of the Shoucai shop were also implicit accusations. She couldn't help it anymore, her heart felt sore, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

Seeing her crying, the owner of the birthday material shop softened his tone a little, and said, "Your son just went out, and he hasn't gone far, so you go out quickly, since he came to ask you to go back to eat, maybe he is waiting for you outside What's the matter with the family, it's better to discuss it than to make a fuss. Although you are an old man, don't rely on the old to bully the young. What's more, he is your son who wants to give you a pension. As far as I know, you are like this Let’s be alone, you have to point at him for everything, this is still in the wedding, you should follow him more..."

This remark discouraged Mrs. Liu, after thinking about it, she felt that the owner of the longevity material shop was right, if this trouble continued, Shun Niang would hate herself.

She sighed in her heart, Shunniang, an honest child, has really changed now, she is no longer like before, pretending to be angry by herself, so she can subdue her and obediently listen to her own words.For example, when I first arrived in Yangliu Town, I asked her to disguise herself as a man to cut firewood. She was unwilling at first, but she went reluctantly because she acted sad and angry.

"Hey, thank you for saying these words to ease my heart. I listen to you and go back." Mrs. Liu nodded to the shop owner, and then walked out listlessly.

After walking out, she wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeves, acted normally, and walked home.

After walking a few steps, I found Shunniang standing on the side of the road and looking towards her. Although her face was still ugly, after seeing her, she also walked over, pulled her sleeves, and whispered: "Mother, Let's go back to eat. We have something to discuss. Let's talk about it when we're full. I thought about it just now, and what I said was too aggressive, so don't take it to heart. You are my mother, so please take care of me. Son."

Shunniang also rushed out of the longevity shop angrily, rushed out a dozen steps, stopped to think for a while, controlled her emotions, and felt that her attitude towards the old lady was not very gentle in front of outsiders, and her old lady couldn't hold back her face, so she Will be angry with myself.I'll leave her behind and go home. If she gets crazy, she really buys the coffin with someone and asks someone to carry it home. That kind of result is really not what Shunniang wants.So, after thinking about it, she stopped, stood by the side of the road, looked at the birthday material shop, and hesitated whether to go back and find the cheap lady.Just as he was hesitating, seeing Liu Shi walking out with his head drooping, he felt relieved for a moment, went up to meet her, and said some heart-warming words to Liu Shi.

Sure enough, when she said this, Mrs. Liu felt much better. Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar daughter in front of her, Mrs. Liu sighed and said: "Who said I am your mother? I owe you, you are my mother." I really don’t want to celebrate my family’s happy birthday? Mother just doesn’t like you contradicting me in front of your wife. In this family, you are the only one who came out of my belly. Instead of going with mother, you want to go with outsiders Mother, I feel bad. Think about it, if you say something wrong about me in front of the two daughters-in-law, will they take me seriously in the future?"

"Mother, Erniang will be filial to you. I promise to tell her when I go back that she will not dare to underestimate you or take you seriously. As for sister-in-law, she has always listened to you. So your These worries are unnecessary. Who said that I am not on your side, am I here to pick you up for dinner?" Shunniang continued her words and said kindly, she still wanted to minimize the conflicts in the family, Since she was young, if she could achieve it through such sweet words, of course she would do so.

After listening to Shunniang's good words, Mrs. Liu could say nothing, so she could only go home with her.

Back home, Shunniang called Erniang Xie to come out and asked her to pour tea for the old lady, while she fanned the old lady with a fan.

Mrs. Liu felt much more comfortable being served by the two of them. She drank the tea brought by Xie Erniang, and asked her to help Mrs. Qi cook in the kitchen, and added a sentence: "From now on, you will be the one who will do the cooking and laundry at home. I did it with your sister-in-law, you are tired of officials, don't let her go into the kitchen."

"Yes, mother." Xie Erniang said respectfully, when she raised her head, she saw Shunniang who was standing behind her mother-in-law playing a fan winked at her, which meant to ignore her mother-in-law and go away.

In fact, Xie Erniang really didn't think it was too much for Liu's request, because Shunniang left early and returned late, and she knew it was very hard work to earn money to support the family.She felt sorry for Shunniang, wishing she could do all the work at home so that Shunniang could have a good rest when she went home.

Pursing her lips and smiling at Shun Niang, Xie Er Niang turned and left to help her sister-in-law cook in the backyard kitchen.

Seeing Xie Erniang entering the kitchen again, Mrs. Qi asked her: "Is mother back? She..."

Although she didn't say it completely, Xie Erniang understood what she was going to ask, so she told her that her mother-in-law was back, and Shunniang came back with her. Just now, Shunniang asked herself to go over and pour tea for her mother-in-law, and her mother-in-law also took it. I drank my tea and seemed to be fine.

After hearing this, Mrs. Qi stroked her chest and said: "It's over, hey, I'm afraid that mother will do her own way, and the family will be broken up by then."

But Xie Erniang said: "With officials here, it won't be so bad, sister-in-law, I'll cook, you serve porridge..."

Mrs. Qi ran a few times between the kitchen and the main room, putting the bowls and chopsticks, porridge and steamed cakes on the table. In the kitchen, Xie Erniang had already fried two dishes deftly, untied her waistband, and served the two plates of fried vegetables. into the house.After she sat down, Mrs. Liu picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables first, and then Shunniang and the others picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables and started eating.

This lunch was different from the atmosphere in the morning, Mrs. Liu didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, and Mrs. Shun didn't say anything. Naturally, Erniang Xie and Mrs. Qi had nothing to say.

After dinner, Shunniang was going to clean up the dishes, but Liu gave her a sideways look, saying that since she married a wife, she should let her do the work that these women do, and then she asked Shunniang to go with her, She has something to say to Shun Niang.As for Shunniang, she just wanted to talk to her about the family's financial control, so she followed her to the old lady's room separated by a screen in the corner.

Mrs. Liu went straight to her bed and sat down, then pointed to the back chair in front of the bed, motioning for Shun Niang to sit down.

After Shunniang sat down, she said: "My mother agreed to you and let you marry Xie Erniang. As for you, I have to do something about my mother."

"What's the matter?" Shun Niang asked.

Mrs. Liu: "In the future, half of the family property you earn can be achieved. If your mother can live to the day when he gets married, you have to give him half of the family property of Xi's family. If your mother can't live to that day , at the end of your life, you have to write me a written statement and hand it over to Kecheng in my face. If one day you and Xie Erniang can't get along and divorce, and you want to get married, then you can only share half of the Xi family property Let's go. Also, until mother closes her eyes, I will be in charge of this house. Every penny you earn must be handed over to mother. Of course, if you want to use money, as long as you explain clearly, mother will not Stop you, don't let you spend money."

"..." After hearing this, Shun Niang was stunned.She didn't expect that before she spoke to her mother about the issue of the family's economic control after she got married, her mother would speak up and make arrangements quite confidently.

According to what she said, she thought that Shunniang's hard-earned money and family property should be given half to her grandson. I will reconcile with Xie Erniang in the future, and if I want to get married, the dowry that I take away will be reduced by half of the original basis.Shunniang couldn't help but think that in the life plan her cheap mother designed for her, isn't she going to get married in the end?If married, the family property will be distributed according to the status of the married woman, which means that she only has a quarter of the distribution rights.

Perhaps Liu's arrangement is the most normal arrangement in this era, but in the eyes of Shun Niang, who has changed her core, it is quite ridiculous arrangement.

In the final analysis, the person earning money in this family is himself, and of course he has [-]% control over the family property he has earned.

As for Kecheng, he is her elder brother's son. I can take care of him and pay for him. No matter whether he wants to study or start a business in the future, I will try my best to help him, but it is impossible for him to have the right to share his hard earned money. Money and family business.But her mother said that she would give Kecheng half of it.It can be seen that she is patriarchal in her heart, thinking that her daughter is not of the authentic blood of the Xi family, she is a daughter, and she will marry sooner or later, even if she marries Erniang Xie, she is not as good as the only child of the Xi family.

So she will fight for her grandson and plan for her grandson.

It was the first time that Shunniang felt this deep-rooted patriarchal concept from her mother.

And a divorced person?Shunniang felt that there was no possibility of such a possibility, so she didn't pay attention to what she said about the "sensible and reasonable" words about married women sharing a quarter of the family property, although she thought it was ridiculous.

In the end, what her mother said was that she had been in charge of the house before she closed her eyes, and that every penny she earned had to be handed over to her for unified arrangements. Before she got married, she had indeed done so.But after getting married, Shunniang had her own plans, and she didn't want to be like before.

Do you want to oppose her and say what you mean?

Shunniang was a little worried that after she said what she wanted, her mother would make a fuss again, because what she said was equivalent to disrupting her wishful thinking.

After all, Shunniang asked her to keep half of the money she earned and take care of it herself, so Mrs. Liu could not control this part of the money in her hands. When it came to separating the family, Mrs. Liu would not be able to share the money from Mrs. Shunniang, so Shunniang felt that Mrs. Liu would not agree.The result of not agreeing is that the mother and daughter have trouble again, and they have to vent their anger, and the family loses peace again.

But in this matter, Shunniang thinks that she is too unkind to herself, even stupid, if she doesn't express her opinion because she is afraid of the cheap mother and making trouble for the family's economic control.

"Mother, that's not what you said before you promised me to get married." After a long time, she said calmly.

Shunniang didn't say clearly that she opposed her arrangement, but said this first.

Liu asked back: "Could it be that I told you this before I got married, so you won't marry Xie Erniang?"

Shunniang said that of course she would not refuse to marry her.

Mrs. Liu: "Then it's over. Since my mother promised you to marry Xie Erniang into the house, I was helping you. Naturally, you should repay my mother's kindness. Besides, go out and ask, who is not the old lady?" The thing is, this family should be in charge of the old, whoever's single-root seedling does not inherit most of the family's family property, and Niang Rang Kecheng inherits half of the Xi's family business, which is already a bowl of water. "

Shun Niang chuckled, and then said: "Mom, how about it, let's divide the family right now, but we can divide it into half. I heard you mean that you will be able to retire in the future, and he is a happy family. The only male, single seedling, I'm sorry for him regardless of half of it."

As soon as these words came out, Liu's face changed instantly. She looked at Shun Niang and said angrily: "I knew that you married Er Niang Xie, and as soon as you were deceived by her, you made a little calculation in your heart, despising us, the old and the old. I'm too young, I want to separate the family and live your little life with Xie Erniang."

Shunniang was very angry, and said with anger: "Mother, can you explain some reason? I have earned the family business, and I have raised you. Since you asked me to pretend to be Men’s clothes are the most popular, then I did this, and you gradually lived a life of adequate food and clothing, so what’s wrong with me marrying a daughter-in-law and wanting to do what I want. Don’t drag Erniang Xie at every turn. There is no Erniang Xie. Other women. I will only like women and live with women in my life. Now that I have a small family, of course I have to plan for my small family. I will not talk nonsense with you. What you said can grow up I don't agree with the idea that half of the family business I earned will be taken away when adults get married. If you still want to live with my sister-in-law, Kecheng and Huier, then don't mention your plan for Kecheng, and Every penny I earn can no longer be handed over to you, I want to take care of it. If you feel that I can’t live on, we will divide the family, and I will share the money I earned after arriving in Yangliu Town. You, take your sister-in-law, Kecheng and Huier, and go back to Xijiazhuang to buy a house and land, and you can live a stable life for the rest of your life, and you can continue to be your grandson's home until you grow old."

Mrs. Liu was furious, raised her finger and yelled at Shunniang: "You unfilial son, who taught you to be so disobedient as a mother, who taught you to be so mean and greedy, Kecheng is the son of your elder brother, the only blood of the Xi family , he is only four years old this year, and you are willing to leave him behind!"

Shunniang gritted her teeth and said, "I didn't say I don't care. I can take care of his food, drink, school, adulthood, marriage, and family business. But the family business I earned is mine. Yes, I can give him as much as I want, not because he is the male of the Xi family, he decided that I would give half of it to him."

Liu sneered: "If you and Xie Erniang can have a boy, then I will do as you say, but if you are with Xie Erniang, you will never have a boy in your life, not even a girl. Let me ask you, who will take care of you in the future when you are old, and will the family property you earn be brought into the soil or given to those irrelevant people when you are old. "

"You don't need to worry about who I will give to. You don't need to worry about who will give me the old age when I am old. As for who I will give the family property I have earned, you don't need to worry about it either."

"It seems that you have made up your mind to be a loner? So I said, your marriage with Xie Erniang is a chaotic yin and yang, disregarding human relations. This is the beginning. You will not be filial to your mother, and you will not take care of your children. You only think about yourself. Become mean and ungrateful."

"Mother, if you keep saying that, we might as well divide the family! I will find Yue Fei's mother-in-law and Mrs. Lu tomorrow. Guo Li is coming to testify. Let's divide the family."

"After the family is separated, you don't want to live a happy life with Xie Erniang. Don't you want to be a lonely family, and I will let you do it."

After hearing her mother's threat, Shunniang said disapprovingly, "You can tell the people in this town that I am a woman, and Erniang Xie will definitely be forced to leave me by her parents? However, maybe my wife will die. My father-in-law and mother-in-law follow my daughter’s will, and Xie Erniang still wants to live with me? I have the confidence that even if I leave Yangliu Town, even if I have no money, I can still make money to support my family in a short time, and then it’s like Now it’s the same as doing seed business, it’s getting bigger and bigger, let my wife wear gold and silver, don’t worry about food and clothing, live in a big house, have someone to serve her, and have her own donkey cart when she goes out. His wife is no different."

"..." Mrs. Liu stared at the high-spirited Shunniang, choked by Shunniang's words, unable to speak.

She found that Shunniang's words were very valid, as she said, the worst outcome would be to leave Yangliu Town without any money.

Ever since Shunniang got sick, she was no longer the honest Shunniang she used to be, let alone the old Shunniang, even if she was compared with Yangliu Town's young men of the same age, she was more than a little bit better than them.In just one year, Xi's family not only settled down in Yangliu Town, but also saved a lot of money, and now they have six or seven hundred coins in hand.If the family is separated, she can share three or four hundred guan, go back to Xijiazhuang to buy a house and land, hire people to farm the land, and live a good life.

But since he came to live in Yangliu Town and went to Bianliang City a few times to broaden his horizons, Mrs. Liu has also become greedy.

She knew that Shunniang's seed business now earns at least five or six hundred yuan a year, which is much more than farming, and life in the city is much more comfortable than in the countryside. .You can buy any delicious food when you go out, and you can buy any fashionable jewelry when you see silk and satin. Besides, there are so many people in the city. She feels very lonely after the death of Cong's wife, so she likes crowds. In this city, all aspects made Liu reluctant to separate and leave Yangliu Town.

"Okay! You...you are not filial...the sky is struck by thunder..." She couldn't speak to refute Shunniang, so she could only start messing around again. While wiping tears again, she kept chanting about Shunniang's disobedience She is not filial.

Shunniang has already become immune to the cheap mother saying such things, and she will not soften her heart when she wipes her tears. She understands a truth, the cheap mother is like a spring, if you are strong, she will be weak, and if you are weak, she will be weak Just be strong.

If I don't overwhelm her with arrogance, and feel ashamed when I wipe my tears when I see her, and feel ashamed when I hear her say that I am not filial, then I will be a child who will never grow up and be controlled by her, even if I am seventy or eighty. .

I don't do marionettes!Today, I simply had a showdown with my old lady, and Shunniang decided to have a thorough showdown: "Mother, listen, if you still want to live with me, you can no longer take care of this house. I have to take care of it myself. Everyone in the family spends their money." How much money I will give a rule, and then withdraw from me every month. This money is your own, and you can spend it as you like. In addition, I also pay for the food and drink in this family, and the clothes for each season, from head to toe. Money. During the holidays, I still have money to honor you. You can go to Shuanglu with other women, go to the temple to burn incense, and go shopping in the city. You don’t have to worry about anything in this house. You just need to eat. He sleeps, eats when he wakes up, and plays around in his spare time. As for Kecheng, I will raise him until he grows up. Whether he wants to study or start a business, I will pay for it. You don’t have to worry that I will treat him badly. If you feel that I am not filial and disobedient, you can go to Guo Lizheng to sue me, and see what Guo Lizheng will say. If you want to split the family, I will only keep two hundred guan, and the rest is yours. You can take it The money goes back to Xijiazhuang. If you want to tell everyone in Yangliu Town that I am a woman, then I can let you go. I am not afraid. At most, I will cut off the mother-child relationship with you in the future. I don’t believe that a living person can be suffocated to death by urine. I advise you not to cry. Since I got sick, I am no longer the Xishun lady I used to be. Your tricks are useless. Well, my words are also After finishing speaking, mother, I will call you mother again, you should think about it carefully."

After Shunniang finished talking, she felt much more at ease. She stood up, looked at what she had said, and was so shocked that her eyes stopped rolling. She opened her mouth slightly and forgot to wipe away her tears. Mrs. Liu stepped out.

After going out, she went directly upstairs to take off her outer robe, and went to lie down on the bed.

She had already made the worst plan, and she had the bottom line in her heart, so she didn't panic at all, and just waited for her mother to make a decision.

Xie Erniang finished washing the dishes, cleaned up the kitchen, and when she re-entered the main room, she heard the silence in the room, and thought that her mother-in-law and the officials were probably going to lie down on their own beds and take a nap, so she also lightened her steps. , tiptoed upstairs, then opened the door and walked into the house.

After entering the room, she immediately saw Shunniang lying on the bed with her hands under her head, looking at the top of the tent.

When Shunniang heard the sound of the door being pushed, she stopped her thoughts, turned her gaze to look at the person who entered the room, and saw that she turned around and locked the door, and then walked towards her with a smile on her lips.

Xie Erniang walked up to Shunniang and sat down, and asked her how long she had been here and what she had said to her mother-in-law.

Shunniang moved into the bed, then patted the bed: "Lie down, I have something to tell you."

Xie Erniang took off her shoes and went to bed as she said, and when she lay down next to Shunniang, she didn't forget to put down the red silk curtains.

When the two looked at each other face to face, Shun Niang told her what her old mother told her to say just now, and what she said. At the end, she said: "I didn't discuss it with you, it was just right My mother said, I wonder if you will blame me?"

Xie Erniang's eyes widened after hearing Shunniang's words, she didn't even move her eyes, she looked at Shunniang like a wooden figure.

Shunniang thought that she was frightened by her own words, so she reached out and pushed her, and asked her what was wrong, was she afraid that the old lady would go crazy and reveal her identity as a woman, so that she would not be able to stay in Yangliu Town any longer? Let the father-in-law and mother-in-law tell the lady to go back and not let her be with him again.Or let her be with him, but the two of them have to leave Yangliu Town and go to another place to start a new life, and then they will have to suffer a lot...

"No..." Erniang Xie froze for a long time before shaking her head in a murmur, saying that she was frightened because what Shunniang said to her mother-in-law was indeed a bit disobedient, and no one would dare to speak to parents like that.Moreover, if the father or mother is still there, a house is indeed in the hands of the old man. Of course, it is not that there is no one who is in charge of the house, but that is also because the old man is unwilling to take care of the house.She listened to Shunniang's words, it seemed that her mother-in-law wanted to take care of the house very much, and her mother-in-law had been taking care of it until she got married. If she was left alone, she would definitely be unhappy.What's more, Shunniang wants to separate the family, which in the eyes of outsiders is treasonous, because everyone knows the situation of Xi's family. If Shunniang wants to separate, only the old, young, women and children will be left in the family. It won't be easy either.Besides, according to the local rules, it is unfilial to raise a family with the elderly.Adding all these things together, these demands made by Shunniang can be regarded as a bit excessive, and people will be scolded for being unfilial and looked down upon.

"Then you think I shouldn't have said that, did I make a mistake?" Shun Niang asked with a frown.

Xie Erniang shook her head slowly again, and said: "I don't think you are wrong, I think that if you follow your method, the family can be tidy, the life can go smoothly, and the business can be done well, it's just that what you said It’s just that no one has done it in our Yangliu Town. The people in our town, as well as those in Bianliang City, have always said that filial piety comes first, and that only those who are filial can be loyal ministers and generals, and loyal to officials. Family, loyal to the court. I have heard these words from my parents since I was a child, and I have been familiar with them for more than ten years. I am just worried that if you do this, outsiders will gossip, or take what your mother said. In other words, because you married me, you forgot your mother and became disobedient and unfilial.
