iron face man laughing husband

Only then did Tie Qing realize that Aunt Xiao, Xiao Guizhi, is a hard-working woman.

???? What do you say?

???? She was married to the old Meng family in Xingshu Village as a daughter-in-law, and her husband was named Meng Qing.

????Old Meng's family is actually richer. Meng Qing's grandfather was a scholar. In the previous dynasty, although the salary was low, there was only such a scholar in ten miles and eight villages. If there is anything, people can go to it Looking for him, of course, life is good, but Meng Laoxiu only has two sons, the eldest son is eighteen, and the younger son was born.

????Later, after Meng Lao Xiucai passed away, the property was divided equally between the two sons.

???? It's just that Mrs. Meng couldn't bear to part with her youngest son, so she gave all the money she saved from her private house to her youngest son. This youngest son married a very beautiful daughter-in-law, but only gave birth to one child, that is Meng Qing.

???? Meng Qing's family has no brothers and sisters who have divided the family property, and the life of this family is also prosperous. It is a rare family in Xingshu Village that has built a brick house.

???? There are two carriages and fifty acres of land.

???? But Meng Qing probably has a bad personality because of his old age. He eats too much and is lazy. He also drinks and beats people when he drinks too much.

???? Before Xiao Guizhi married, when he was young, he didn't have this problem, but then Xiao Guizhi gave birth to a daughter in his first child, and he and Mrs. Meng were unhappy; the second child was a daughter, and Meng The old lady began to point fingers and scold Huai, and finally tortured herself to death!

????Meng Qing's parents died young, and the old lady Meng grew up watching him grow up. She lost her doting grandmother, and even her own grandparents didn't want to see him, so Meng Qing began to drink away his worries. His habit of beating people when he drank too much was also exposed.

???? After the third birth was a girl, Meng Qing almost cried out!

????His cousins ​​all have sons, and the uncles and aunts have long been grandparents, even great-grandparents.

???? What about him?Not even a son!

???? If it is really extinct, will the property be inherited by the sons of the cousins?

He was not reconciled, so he vented his anger on his wife and daughter. In addition, he is lazy, and Xiao Guizhi does all the work at home and in the field. The three daughters are still working together. Small, but I have learned how to cook, light the fire, and clean the house...

???? To put it bluntly, it is patriarchal.

???? "Fortunately, sister Guizhi didn't give birth to a brother, otherwise life would be even more difficult." Old Aunt Xiao sighed: "If you want me to say, Meng Qing really thinks of himself as a character, his grandfather is a real scholar, But he is not that kind of material for reading, and he is not just illiterate, so why bother people? Having children is not a woman's final decision!"

???? Tie Qing nodded after hearing this: "Yes, yes! He is destined to have no son, who is to blame?"

????Actually, Tie Qing really has no opinion on the birth of boys and girls. In the last days, no children were born. At that time, every child was a baby. After ten years of catastrophe, I don’t know if there will be a newborn baby. .

???? He can't see it, and he can't know it.

???? But old uncle Xiao went out for a day and came back in the evening the next day. He was in a bad mood at first sight.

???? During dinner at night, Old Aunt Xiao asked, "How is it?"

???? "What else can I do? Meng Qing, that bum, is pretty good when he's not drinking, but once he's drinking, he doesn't know who he is. Does it really mean that our old Xiao's family is empty?" Old Xiao uncle clipped He took a piece of meat with brittle bones and chewed it creakingly. It is rare for him to have good teeth at such an age: "When I first went there, I was like a dog with me. After eating two catties of yellow soup, it would be the original shape. Bilu, want to hit someone? Let me beat you!"

???? Tieqing suppressed her laughter and lowered her head to eat.

???? Xiao Geer is dumbfounded!

???? His father beat someone?Still beat his eldest uncle!

???? "Did you beat him to the brim? It's almost Chinese New Year, how inauspicious?" Sure enough, Old Aunt Xiao was also quite surprised.

???? "It's okay, I just went to fight for Gui Zhi. The people from Lao Meng's family saw me as if they had met their ancestors. When I beat and kicked Meng Qing, no one came No matter." Old Uncle Xiao said very bachelor: "I am his uncle, he dared to beat my sister, why should I not dare to beat him? Besides, Guizhi brought back a lot of things this time, and I I left some money for Guizhi."

????In this era, consistent money is equal to a thousand copper coins.

???? This era was feudal, and the smallest unit of coins was a copper plate, most of which were round coins with square holes.

???? A consistent coin can be exchanged for one tael of silver, and ten taels of silver can be exchanged for one tael of gold.

????Of course, if copper is expensive and silver is cheap, the usual money will be less than a thousand copper plates, probably nine hundred, eight hundred or even at least seven hundred.

???? It's just that the country has just been established, and everything is strictly enforced. The usual money is a full thousand copper coins.

???? In the eyes of the villagers, it is quite a fortune.

???? Tie Qing took a look at Old Aunt Xiao, and saw that she was not dissatisfied. It seemed that Old Aunt Xiao and Aunt Xiao had a good relationship.

????Old Xiao's family is considered to be the richest in Yushu Village.

???? After Uncle Xiao came back, he took Tie Qing to other people's houses to eat several meals of pig-killing dishes. During the whole twelfth lunar month, many people killed pigs, but more people just bought some pork for the New Year. This kind of situation is also very common in other villages, and they are all people who live by tightening their belts.

???? Seeing that it is going to be a young year, everyone in the village who should be slaughtered has been killed, and it is time to prepare for the New Year.

???? Although the outside is getting colder and colder, even the kang is made of wood, this one is a bit more burnt, and basically I don’t live on the fire all day, because I’m afraid of the cold!

???? So every night they ate stewed vegetables. In the cold weather, Aunt Xiao made them a meal of sauerkraut stewed goose. Say, it’s not complete, go buy something for the New Year.”

???? "I'm going to buy some too." Tie Qing said, "It's Chinese New Year, let's go buy some food."

???? "Didn't you buy them all? Before winter." Old Uncle Xiao took a livid look: "You haven't made much money this winter."

???? He was more worried about Li Qing's purse, this kid spent money like water.

???? "It's okay, I still have money here, and it's the first time I celebrate the New Year here." Tie Qing had something to say: "You can't be careless."

???? He has said so, what can Old Uncle Xiao do?Had no choice but to take him one.

???? Tie Qing said again: "Take old Aunt Xiao to go with Brother Xiao again? I haven't been to the county town all year long."

???? When Brother Xiao heard it, his eyes lit up immediately!

???? He hasn't been to the county seat for several years, and all the things he makes are sold in the town, the county seat!

???? "Then let's go together!" Old Uncle Xiao looked at his brother: "Let Lao Qiao and his wife watch over the house and help burn the kang. I guess we will stay in the county for a night .”

???? If you ride a fast horse, you can go back and forth to the county seat in half a day, but they are horse-drawn carriages, so they walk slowly and can't come back.

???? "Okay, when the time comes, I will book a suite, let my aunt and Brother Xiao live in it, and you live in the outside room, and I will find a single room." Tie Qing even thought about how to live in the inn.
