Shun Niang finished dinner at Xie's house, because she made the first charcoal sale, she also settled for renting a house in the city, and Xie Er Niang's hand injury has completely healed, and she can pick her up tomorrow, she is in a good mood , I drank more.

When I got home, I was so drunk that I didn't even want to take a shower, I just wanted to go upstairs, lie down and have a good sleep.

I don't want to, as soon as I entered the room, I was stopped by her mother who was sitting at the table in the main room, and asked her to sit down and talk.

"Mother." Shunniang walked over and called out to Mrs. Liu, then sat down on the table while Mrs. Qi stood aside, pouring her a bowl of tea, saying that she had drunk some strong tea to relieve the bar , and said that the tea has been boiled for a long time, and it is not hot at all.

Shunniang took the tea and took a few sips, and asked Qi Shi where Kecheng and Huier were. Qi Shi said that their two children had already gone to bed, and now it was past Wu o'clock, and it was already past their bedtime .

Seeing that Shunniang had drunk tea, Mrs. Liu asked her, "You went to the city for a few days and said you were doing some spice business, but when I saw you came back, I didn't have anything in hand. Last time I went back to Jincheng Town, I brought satin and The spices came back. This time I was doing spice business, but I didn’t bring anything with me. I smelled the wine on your body, but not the spices. Tell me, you haven’t been home for a few days. What did you go to do?"

Shunniang didn't expect her old lady to be smart, so soon she started to suspect that she wasn't following others to sell spices, and she was too tired for the past two or three days, so she didn't even want to buy some spices to cover up.Of course she didn't want to tell the cheap mother about the charcoal business, so she said that she went to the city to meet Chen Dalang and others, and also went to Jincheng Town. Who would have thought that something happened to the spice seller? He came here according to the appointment, so Chen Dalang and himself waited in Jincheng Town for two days, and then came back.

"I knew that you were out to fool around. I guess you also listened to your wife's words and wanted to earn some money for her as a private house." Liu said displeasedly.

Shunniang was a little annoyed that she was taking too much care, so she said: "My Erniang Xie is not short of money, and the dowry is hundreds of guan, why should I earn her private money? Didn't we talk before, the money for this kind of business is yours. I have to save half of it, and the remaining half is up to me to decide what business I want to do, so why are you in charge?"

"But my mother can't let you just earn a little money and start to prodigal. Mother knows that it is not easy for you to make money." Liu patted the table and said, although her voice was very soft, but the eagerness on her face Shunniang's expression still made Shunniang very uncomfortable.

She thought, if the cheap mother was a good mother who loved her, she probably wouldn't have forced the original owner to dress up as a man to cut firewood for a living, and almost exhausted the original owner to death.And after going through her fight with herself for the right to manage the money, she used her as a mother and an elder to force her to agree to give half of the family business she earned in the future to her nephew, and she had trouble with herself before and after marriage. She scalded Xie Erniang while she was not at home and ruined the family's reputation... After this series of events, Shunniang found it hard to believe that she would sympathize with herself, thinking that it was not easy for her to earn money and support the family.So, she didn't believe her mother's words.She thinks that the cheap mother is a feudal patriarch who uses the big hat of filial piety to firmly control her children, and then controls the economic power of a family in her hands by controlling her children.

Shunniang once thought that if she was not a modern person who passed through, and did not have modern ideological consciousness, as the original owner, she would definitely be firmly controlled by the Liu family, just like her sister-in-law, a native of the Song Dynasty, even if she was under the control of her mother-in-law. All kinds of bullying, but I never thought of resisting, and I always accepted it.

Even if Xie Erniang hadn't supported her by herself, she would have been bullied by her mother-in-law like her sister-in-law, and she would have chosen to accept it and make peace with it.

For thousands of years, the two characters of loyalty and filial piety have been engraved on the bones of Chinese people. Don't you know that there are also foolish loyalty and foolish filial piety, and there are people who use these two characters to imprison people's freedom and thought and destroy people's happiness.

"Okay, mom, I'm tired and I don't want to argue with you anymore. If you really love me, you'll want to see me do what I like and be with the person I like. I'm already married, Aren't you tired?" After finishing speaking, Shunniang stood up, turned and went upstairs, Lian Qi called her to wait, and she went to bring her water to wash I didn't even agree to wash.

Mrs. Liu couldn't answer a word from Shunniang's question. From Shunniang's words, she felt that her daughter was deeply disappointed in her as a mother, which meant that she no longer wanted to live with her.Thinking of what Shunniang once said that she was determined to separate the family, and finally she proposed that there should be no division between everyone and only the small family, and Shunniang reluctantly accepted it, and Liu Shi felt sad from it.

She could imagine that after going to Xie's house with Shunniang to bring Xie Erniang back tomorrow, Shunniang would really separate and move out.

Shunniang and Xie Erniang moved to Bianliang City, where only the eldest daughter-in-law, grandson and granddaughter are left, what do people in Yangliu Town think of them.And Xie Erniang has moved away, Xie Yi and his wife must not go out with them anymore, although she will not be driven away with the eldest daughter-in-law and two children because of face, but it is certain that they will not interact.Also, will the Zhao family, which is feuding with the Xi family, come up with a new plan to deal with them while Shun Niang is not living in Yangliu Town?And, there is Lu Quan, that prodigal son, if Shun Niang is not in Yangliu Town, will Lu Quan come to pester the eldest daughter-in-law again?

Thinking of all these incidents, Mrs. Liu suddenly felt scared, as if she realized now that this family cannot be separated from Shunniang, even if Shunniang doesn't divide everyone into small families, and moves to live in the city, this family will never be separated from each other. There is no backbone, no pillars.Her mother couldn't cope with the things she had just thought of. For the first time, she felt old and useless.

As a result, Mrs. Liu became flustered, and her hands resting on the table couldn't help shaking.

Hearing Shunniang's footsteps going upstairs gradually subsided, Liu even felt a sense of fear. She felt that her daughter was really going to leave her life.

She didn't know where this feeling came from. When this feeling captured her, she felt fear like never before.

"Shun Niang... Shun Niang..." She murmured, her eyes that had lost her clearness quickly filled with tears, and then she couldn't help but fell on the table and choked up.

The Qi family who was at the side was also stunned to see her mother-in-law lying on the table and weeping in a low voice. She didn't understand why the always strong mother-in-law suddenly cried. Could it be because of what Shun Niang said just now?But what Shun Niang said just now is not even as exaggerated as what she said before.Shunniang just asked her mother-in-law to stop caring about her, saying that her mother-in-law didn't love her.

Mrs. Qi didn't know how to persuade her mother-in-law. She was always speechless when facing her mother-in-law, and from her heart, she always felt that she was not close to her mother-in-law.Since her husband Dalang left, the only person in the family she feels close to is Shunniang.

Therefore, under the dim and flickering light, the inside of the Xijiatang room presents such a scene: Mrs. Liu is lying on the table, choking and crying sadly, while Mrs. Qi is standing on the side with her head bowed, looking at Liu silently with her fingers twisted. cry.

I don't know how long the time has passed before Liu raised her head, wiped her tears with her skinny palm, looked at Qi and asked, "Daughter-in-law, do you think I, as a mother, really care too much about Shunniang?" "

Mrs. Qi said "ah", and looked at her mother-in-law for a long time before she dared to say: "Uncle has become a family, maybe it's different from before, she has grown up."

The meaning of these words probably means that Shunniang has a family, just like other men who have a family. They have to take care of their own small family, and they are also a person who counts their words at home. They no longer like everything to be controlled by their elders. up.

Mrs. Liu looked at Mrs. Qi for a while and then murmured: "Could it be that I really shouldn't care about anything else? Should I leave this family to Shunniang? As she said, just enjoy the happiness? I don't care about what I like in the future. The family business fell into the hands of outsiders?"

After hearing her mother-in-law's words, Mrs. Qi really wanted to nod her head in agreement, and let her mother-in-law let go of managing the housework and enjoy life in peace, so that Shunniang would not always be dissatisfied with her mother-in-law and always argue with her.As for the property of Xi's family falling into the hands of outsiders, she also felt that her mother-in-law was too worried. Now that Xi's family has no property, it will be earned by Shun Niang if they have property in the future. How will Shun Niang want to divide it? Shouldn't she be the one to call the shots?Besides, she thinks that Shunniang is smart and capable, so she won't be so confused. The family property she has earned through hard work belongs to Xie Erniang, and her two children, Shunniang, will definitely take care of her. Kecheng and Hui'er will definitely have a share, and they don't even need to go to Shunniang with their mother-in-law to bring it up.

After hesitating for a while, she finally plucked up the courage to say to Mrs. Liu: "Mother, you can leave it to Uncle. She is a conscientious and filial person. She will definitely treat Mother well, as well as Kecheng and Huier. It will be as bad as mother thought. Our family can’t do without uncle.”

Mrs. Liu heaved a long sigh, and then said that even Mrs. Qi had thought of it, she only thought of it now, she is really old...

When Qi heard this, she was secretly startled, thinking that this has never happened before, and her mother-in-law is actually getting old?

That night, upstairs in Xi's house, Shunniang slept soundly, even snoring.

Downstairs in Xi's house, Mrs. Qi slept soundly next to her two sons and daughters, only Mrs. Liu tossed and turned on the bed, staying up half the night.

When they got up the next day, Shunniang and Qi's family were surprised when they saw her. They felt that she had aged a lot overnight. On her head where there was not even a trace of white hair, several white hairs suddenly appeared on her temples. His appearance also suddenly aged a lot.

Shunniang didn't go to the city because she was going to pick up Xie Erniang back today. She planned to go to the city after she settled the affairs of the family and went all out to expand the sales of charcoal.

After breakfast, before going to Xie's house to pick up Xie Erniang, Mrs. Liu called Shunniang to him, and after a long silence, said: "Shunniang, why don't we separate the family? Mommy will leave this family to you. I don't care about the money, I don't care about your business, after taking Xie Erniang back, she will treat her well, can we still live together as a family?"
