The accessories shop was quickly cleaned up, and while the shop was still open, Xiao Le, Mrs. Xiao and Mother Xiao worked together in a division of labor. Xiao Le was in charge of collecting the shelves, and Mother Xiao was in charge of checking the quality of the purse and the embroidery work. , Mrs. Xiao is in charge of adding embroidery and printing.

After living for several days in a row, I finally got the things ready. The second sister-in-law Xiao will send these things to the shop tomorrow, and also go to live in the county town by the way.

Although Xiao's mother didn't say anything about her reluctance, in the afternoon, either father Xiao went to buy tofu at the aunt's house in the same village, or Xiao Le went to buy fish, and she was busy killing a chicken, half of which was cooked with vegetables and half Ask Second Sister-in-law Xiao to take it to the county seat tomorrow and eat it with Brother Xiao.

"Mother, there is no need to kill chickens."

Second Sister Xiao couldn't help but see that she was busy with things and still didn't let her do it.

"You think my chicken was killed for you to eat?"

Xiao's mother turned her head and glared at her, "I killed it for the second child to eat."

Second Aunt Xiao was not angry when she heard the words, "Then I'll go boil some water."

"There's enough water, go get some vegetables from the vegetable patch and come back."

"Hey," Second Aunt Xiao picked up the bamboo basket and went out with a sickle.

When she was walking down the path with a basket full of vegetables, Xiao Le stopped her from behind, "I saw my second sister-in-law from a long way away."

Second Aunt Xiao stopped and waited for him, seeing that he was holding two big carps in his hands, she couldn't help asking, "Why did you buy so many?"

"Not much," Xiao Le showed his small white teeth, "One is for Brother Mo Cheng, this one weighs more than three catties, let's eat."

Second Sister Xiao chuckled when she heard this, and stretched out her hand, "Then you give me this one, and send him the other one quickly."

"He won't be at home now," Xiao Le signaled her to move on, "It's okay to send him there later."

The two talked while walking home.

The second sister-in-law Xiao was very reluctant, but Xiao Le scolded her, "This is a day that many young ladies can't wait to have. Earn money with their husbands, live a little farther away from their in-laws, and have fewer conflicts. When it comes to you, I still don't want to part with it." gone."

The second sister-in-law Xiao who had been told a lesson looked back at him, "Uncle, why don't you become the shopkeeper."

Xiao Le immediately turned his face round, "Okay! You and the second brother are in the same group!"

"What does it mean?"

Second Aunt Xiao was taken aback.

"If I go to the county seat, then brother Mo Cheng and I will be separated?"

Xiao Le snorted lightly.

"No, I didn't mean that," Second Sister Xiao hurriedly said.

"Don't talk yet," Xiao Le interrupted her explanation, pointed at the yard not far away with the fish's finger, "Is there a quarrel at home?"

Second Sister Xiao hurriedly looked back, and listened carefully again, the slightly familiar voice made Second Sister Xiao's complexion change.

She walked quickly towards the door, Xiao Le followed behind her.

As soon as he entered the gate of the courtyard, he saw a woman with a big arm and a round waist splashing on the ground, while Xiao's mother was holding a chicken that hadn't been plucked, and her face was flushed with anger.

"Ouch, Yaya is back!"

After the woman heard the movement, she turned her head and saw that it was Second Sister Xiao, she immediately burst into a smile, then got up and went to grab the basket in Second Sister Xiao's hand, "What is this?"

Second Aunt Xiao turned away with a cold face, "Third Aunt, what are you doing here?"

"Oh, look at you girl, why, you won't recognize us after you get married?"

It turned out that this was Xiao Ersao's third aunt.

Xiao Le put the fish into the water basin, and let Xiao's mother do her own work, "Don't spoil your health because of outsiders' anger, it's me and my second sister-in-law."

Xiao's mother glared at him, and stuffed the chicken in her hand, "You go clean it up, I'll do it."

After all, he is a brother-in-law, not a sister-in-law. If he protects Second Sister-in-law Xiao too much, then that mean-spirited Third Aunt might not be able to say something.

So while cleaning up the chickens, Xiao Le watched Xiao's mother show off her arrogance, and ignored the third aunt's words, and was even asked to take out all the fields occupied by Xiao's second sister-in-law, otherwise she would go to the government to sue for land occupation .

"You, you are dreaming!"

The third aunt was trembling with anger, grabbed the second sister-in-law Xiao and said, "After your parents passed away, you have been raised in our house! We gave you food, housed you, raised you so much, and married someone with a good family. Now you Fortunately, you helped your mother-in-law to harm us!"

"Give it to me, do you mean let me compete with the chicken?"

Second Aunt Xiao pushed her away.

She took a deep breath and looked coldly at the stunned Third Aunt.

"Living for pigs, do you mean that I live in a firewood house? You don't even have a bed and bedding, and you guys took all the house and fields left by my parents, and said to the outside world that you are very good to me, right? I listen to people's instigation, so I don't respect you?"

"How else should I respect? Whether it's midsummer or cold winter, didn't I wake up earlier than the chickens and go to bed later than you? All the work at home fell on me, and I was accused and angry by my cousins." scold."

Second Sister Xiao pushed Third Aunt away.

"When it comes to getting married, how much money did you ask for? Don't you know?! At the beginning, you said to break up with me in front of Brother Tian, ​​but now it's good, you came to scold my mother-in-law! Do you think I'm dead? ?”

The third aunt was strong, and she couldn't push it, so the second sister-in-law Xiao simply picked up the sickle and slashed at her, scaring the third aunt out of the yard.

Xiao's mother laughed loudly, and stood at the gate of the courtyard pointing at her embarrassed figure and said loudly, "If you dare to come here in the future, I will dare to go to your daughter's house and scold her! Let her have trouble at her husband's house and come back to make trouble with you! "

"If you dare to turn right and wrong outside and arrange our Xiao family, I will dare to take the Xiao family to take back the land left by the second daughter-in-law's parents!"

"you dare!"

Third aunt is still stubborn.

Xiao's mother picked up the stones by the yard and threw them over, "Look how dare I! Believe it or not, I will go to your girl's house right away! I know, she married in the village of my mother's house, and my brother's sister-in-law It's not vegetarian either!"

Now the third aunt dared not mention a single word.

Leaving quickly, I met Xiao's father at the fork in the road. Before he could speak, Xiao's father stared, bent down to pick up the stone and was about to throw it over.

"Don't throw it, don't throw it! I'll just go!"

The third aunt covered her face and ran past him.

As for why Father Xiao has this attitude, it is also due to Brother Xiao’s previous reminder that their family has now hired so many people to work, so it naturally attracts attention. beat.

When Xiao's father came home and talked about it, Xiao's mother praised him greatly.

As for Mrs. Xiao, she was washing vegetables while crying in the kitchen.

The corner of Xiao Le's mouth twitched violently.

"Second sister-in-law, do you know what you look like now?"

"what?"

Second Sister Xiao was sobbing.

"Like a squeezed cabbage," Xiao Le clicked his tongue and shook his head.

Xiao Le told the story of Xiaobaicai to Sister Xiao and Second Sister Xiao, so Second Sister Xiao naturally understood what it meant. She made a gesture to hit Xiao Le, but was slipped away by Xiao Le.

And the next one to enter the kitchen was Mother Xiao.

Seeing Second Aunt Xiao hurriedly wiped her tears, she pursed her lips and stepped forward.

"mother."

Second Sister Xiao lowered her head and let out a cry.

"You've also seen the virtues of your natal family, so you'll have less contact with them in the future," Mother Xiao felt as if she had scolded her parents after she finished speaking, so her tone slowed down again, "When I have free time every year, I'll spend time with the old man. Second, go back and offer incense to your parents, if you want to come back to that house, we will."

"However, I heard that her son has already lived in that house. Otherwise, erect two monuments for your parents and pay homage to them every year. This is also your filial piety as a girl."

The second sister-in-law Xiao, with her head down, held back her tears and nodded vigorously, "Thank you, mother."

"Thank you, we are all one family," Xiao's mother finished, and coughed again, "Then what, when you go to the county seat, don't just be busy with the shop, when it's time to have a baby with the second child, you can't Relax."

These words made Mrs. Xiao's face turn red.

Xiao Le, who came out of the kitchen, went to Mo's house with the fish.

Mo Cheng seemed to know that he was coming, when Xiao Le passed, he was standing outside the courtyard gate.

"Brother Mo Cheng!"

Xiao Le flew over like a happy bird.

The fish swayed and hit Mo Cheng's sleeve, but he didn't feel it was dirty, but wrapped his arms around Xiao Le's waist, lowered his head and kissed Xiao Le's forehead, "I knew you were coming."

"I'll give you fish," Xiao Le raised his face, pouted his lips, and behaved very frivolously.

But Mo Cheng loved his frivolity very much, but it was somewhat inconvenient outside, so he only paused for a moment on the bright red lips, and then he wanted to pull people into the house, but Xiao Le was like a loach, tied He stuffed the fish-catching grass with him, and ran away by himself.

"Ming'er's second sister-in-law is going to the county seat. I'm busy seeing her off at night."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand at Mo Cheng, and quickly ran away.

Mo Cheng held the fish and smiled helplessly on the spot.

The meal at night is very rich, pickled fish, braised chicken with green vegetables, scrambled eggs with leeks, mapo tofu made by Xiao Le, and a cabbage soup.

Xiao's father took out the wine, and Xiao's second sister-in-law drank half a bowl, and expressed her reluctance to Xiao's mother and Xiao's father through the strength of the wine, which made Xiao's mother's eyes red.

In the end, the second sister-in-law Xiao clinked glasses with Xiao Le.

"Uncle, I misunderstood you because of some things before, and I still feel very guilty," Second Sister Xiao's eyes were slightly red, "I never thought that I could be a shopkeeper, let alone those hairpins. My uncle taught me..."

Xiao Le listened to her quietly, then drank the wine in his bowl, "I also did many things wrong, the most important thing is that you and your second brother are doing well."

"I wish you well too."

Second Sister Xiao felt a little uncomfortable at this moment. If Xiao Le was a girl, they might be able to go to the county together.

Xiao Le didn't know that she thought so, otherwise he would have jumped up and cursed.

Xiao's father and Xiao's mother who were next to him heard it clearly and confusedly. After Xiao's second sister-in-law returned to the room, Xiao's mother caught Xiao Le and questioned him. It looked like he was so drunk that he didn't know what he was talking about."

"That's right, what do I care about with a drunkard?"

Mother Xiao also nodded.

Early the next morning, Xiao's mother was afraid that Second Sister Xiao would not be able to get up, so she went to call her, and made her favorite egg custard, and asked Father Xiao and Xiao Le to help carry the things to the village entrance, and sent Second Sister Xiao to the ox cart.

After Second Aunt Xiao left, it was Mother Xiao who was the least used to it.

"You said when she was at home, I hated her for not doing a good job. I didn't expect that, but when this person left, I found that you were not as good as her."

These words hurt Father Xiao and Xiao Le's hearts a bit.

So besides working in the field, Xiao Le went to find Mo Cheng, so that Xiao's mother had no chance to talk about him, and only Xiao's father was the one who suffered.

A few days later, Second Brother Xiao took the time to come back to inform the progress of the shop, "With Brother Zhao's help, we can all receive customized accessories now, and I see twice as many deliveries next month. "

This also needs to be designed with Xiao Le's clothing draft for Shopkeeper Zhao.

"I'll do the design. This time we'll gather all the people. After we're done, put the things down and come back the next day."

Xiao Le suggested.

"Do you want to eat that bag?"

"Bag."

Xiao Le nodded, "Second brother, this house has to be built."

Second Brother Xiao twitched his mouth, "This shop has just started, and the money hasn't come yet."

"I'll pad it for you first," Xiao Le winked at him, "Remember to pay me back."

"...That's fine. You need to pay more attention to the building of houses and goods."

"fine."

In front of Second Brother Xiao, he said it was all right, and then went to ask Mo Cheng for help, so Mo Cheng became the supervisor and main labor force of the house, Xiao's mother cooked, and Xiao's father asked a master carpenter.

After much deliberation, Xiao Le made fourth lady Xue to be the foreman.

Those people all went to work at Mrs. Xue Si's house, and the inspection and acceptance was on Xiao Le's side.

Externally, it was Mrs. Xue who wanted to have a good relationship with Mrs. Xiao. Mrs. Xiao went to the county town, and the Xiao family was busy building a house, so Mrs. Xue was asked to watch over this matter for the time being.

This actually made Mrs. Xue move her mind and wanted to bring the other two daughters-in-law over.

But Mrs. Xue should not, because the two sister-in-laws are not good at embroidery, and they can't even make bamboo frames well.

"You judge me, this fourth daughter-in-law is really a bully! I'm her mother-in-law!"

Mrs. Xue acted violently in public, but everyone couldn't persuade her.

Xue Silang, who was watching the child in the back room, wanted to go out and swear.

He knew how tiring it was for fourth lady Xue to embroider purses and make bamboo frames every day.

Now my mother not only doesn't feel distressed, but wants to stuff that useless person in!

There was a lot of trouble here, and a young lady rushed to look for Xiao Le.

Xiao Le waved at Mo Cheng, and after Mo Cheng understood the situation, he directly took a wooden stick and just left.

"Then Mo Dalang picked up the stick and hit that rambunctious Xue family!"

Aunt Liu, who came to help the next day, talked about what happened last evening.

"Really hit?"

Mother Xiao glanced at Mo Cheng who was working, and asked.

"It was beaten, and the man was crying and screaming. Later, Xue Silang's brother came and was beaten by Mo Dalang. He said how the Xue family bullied his sister all these years. He hasn't found them yet. Settle the score, and now make trouble again, don't blame him for being cruel!"

Aunt Liu groaned and rubbed the goosebumps on her hands, "Don't say, the village chief didn't stop him when he went, but the village chief will be changed soon, and the Xue family has a great chance of winning. If this continues, Mo Dalang will not hated by them."

"No," Xiao Le approached with a smile on his face, "As long as that person from the Xue family can become the village chief, he knows he can't offend anyone. If he does, my Xiao family can make them replace the village chief."

Aunt Liu was taken aback, and Mother Xiao gave Xiao Le a look and drove him away.

"By the way, how is Yan'er over there?" Liu Yan has been married for two months.

"Very good," Aunt Liu said with a smile on her face, "I was worried at first, but you don't know, after she married, that cousin stayed here for a while, I was really afraid that something would happen, but Yan'er It wasn't a head-to-head fight, and the cousin was driven back not long after, and the cousin was married not long after."

"And Yan'er has a body too."

"Oh, this is a happy event." Mother Xiao also felt relieved.

"And your in-laws," Aunt Liu lowered her voice, "It seems that they are a lot more honest, your girl went back to see them, and they were there for snacks and cloth delivery, but now I haven't heard what they said. "

"They dare."

Mother Xiao sneered.

Today's Xiao family is not comparable to the Chen family.

"It's still good for you, the children are promising."

The two laughed and talked about the children, and Mother Xiao began to focus on Xiao Le's marriage again.

Xiao Le pointed to the newly laid foundation, "We'll talk about it after the house is built."

Mother Xiao thought it made sense, so she built a house with peace of mind.

After the second batch of goods was ready, Xiao Le personally delivered them to the county seat.

The business of the shop is booming, and the goods that Xiao Le sent over have not yet been embroidered, so I have to trouble Mrs. Xiao.

"Just yesterday, we found out that someone copied our accessories and sold them at a much lower price than us."

Brother Xiao was very unhappy.

"It's inevitable," Xiao Le sighed softly, "So I don't need to emphasize how important this embroidery is."

"It's thanks to you." Second brother Xiao smiled again, "Yesterday your second sister-in-law took our accessories and showed them to the guests at the gate. There are embroidered prints on them and two sunshine colors can be seen. , are our home accessories, everything else is fake."

"I deliberately tracked down the person who imitated our accessories, and found that the number of people who bought her has dropped by more than half."

"Good thing," Xiao Le nodded, picked up his purse and looked at it, "Our material needs to be improved, second brother, you have time to find Big Brother Zhao to buy a batch of good material."

"Row."

Second Brother Xiao and Second Sister Xiao treated Xiao Le to a good meal, and bought a lot of things for him to take home.

Seeing what Xiao Le brought back, Mother Xiao couldn't help scolding.

"I still don't have enough money to build a house at home, so I spend money everywhere!"

"That's right," Xiao Le nodded very righteously, "I can't even persuade you, she is really disobedient, mother, when they come back free, you can talk to them well."

Seeing Xiao Le's "sowing discord", Mo Cheng couldn't help but smile.

Xiao Le, who caught a glimpse of his snickering, immediately leaned over and threatened in a low voice, "What are you laughing at?"

"Don't dare."

Mo Cheng's attitude of admitting his mistakes was very good.

"Hmph," Xiao Le snorted softly, "I brought you a jar of good wine, but seeing you like this, I don't want to drink it anymore."

"Think about it."

Mo Cheng nodded.

"I've been riding an ox cart twice, and my back hurts." Xiao Le pretended to twist his neck.

"I'll rub it for you tonight."

Mo Cheng raised his lips and leaned into his ear and said.

This posture was a bit ambiguous, but Mo Cheng straightened up quickly, and no one thought much about it.

Xiao Le blushed, and waved his hand generously, "Then I forgive you."

That night, Xiao Le was holding the wine jar in front, and Mo Cheng behind him was carrying the baggage, all of which belonged to Xiao Le.

The reason was that the house was demolished. Father Xiao and the others packed up the woodshed outside the yard, built it up simply, and lived in it, but Xiao Le had no place to live.

Before that, he would just live with them, but because the place was too small, Xiao Le slept aggrievedly. After complaining for many days, today he proposed to live with Mo Cheng's house. Xiao's father and Xiao's mother had no doubts.

In this way, Xiao Le lived with Mo Cheng upright.

"drink!"

Xiao Le touched the wine bowl with Mo Cheng.
