Stingy Husband Farming
Chapter 18 Webster's Dream
Under Shen Laoer's instruction, Webster came to find his mother-in-law and aunt Shen Laoniang crying.
Mrs. Shen is actually not very talkative at home.Although she has her own small thoughts, she is still an ordinary village woman who pays attention to a husband as a guide to a wife.With old man Shen around, she can't decide the family affairs, otherwise the one who married Webster back then would be Boss Shen.
All she could do was to blow the pillow wind - whether old man Shen would listen or not was still a matter of fact.Occasionally, it's okay to do some small tricks in private, but she absolutely dare not let her be the master of the house.
Wei Shi cried sadly—she was really sad, the third son, Shen Goudan, was her smartest son, and he was very clever at such a young age!Although the eldest son and second son are quite filial, they are both naive, so she pointed at the third son and turned over, hoping that Shen Goudan would also be a scholar and come back.
Wei Shi thought about Shen Goudan, and felt sad in his heart.Since she was a child, her aunt often talked about wanting her to be her daughter-in-law, and Webster only thought about her handsome and talented cousin.Later, the eldest cousin was admitted to Tongsheng, and it is even more likely to be admitted to Xiucai.Webster felt that he was a destined scholar wife.
Wei Shi didn't know when Shen Wen and Liu Shi were discussing marriage. When Shen's family came to Wei's family to propose marriage, she was shy and timid and didn't listen carefully. Second Shen Wu.
It was useless for Webster to go blind from crying, so he had to marry Shen Wu.It's not that she has any feelings for Shen Wen. Anyone with eyes knows that Shen Wen is going to be a scholar. If you marry Shen Wen, you will be a scholar's wife. If you are not good enough, you will be a Tongsheng wife. If you have a reputation, you will be respected by people in the village. .
But Shen Wu is ineffective and cannot be supported by mud. Who wants to marry such a man?
But the Wei family is poor, even if they marry Shen Wu, their Wei family is at the top of their list. If there is no Shen Wenzhuyu in front, for Wei Shi, Shen Wu would be considered a very good marriage.
But everything is afraid of comparison.Webster had the psychological expectation of being a scholar's wife, and the reality of marrying Shen's second son made her feel even more uncomfortable.
When she became a relative and came to Shen's house, Wei Shi devoted herself to pleasing her aunt, and she lived a good life, and the grievance in her heart gradually let go.It wasn't until Shen Wen passed the exam that he took Liu Shi back home, and the grievances in Webster's heart surged again.
Shen Wen really likes Liu Shi and treats Liu Shi very well.And although Mrs. Liu is just a maid, she grew up with Miss, and her appearance and bearing are not bad, so she looks like a different person from these village women!With Shen Wen's love, every time Webster saw it, he couldn't help feeling sour.
The name of Mrs. Xiucai, this fine dress, silver hairpin and jade bracelet, should have belonged to me in the first place.Looking at Shen Wen, who has an extraordinary bearing, and Shen Wu, who is wretched and wretched at home, Webster is even more angry.
Therefore, when Liu's childbirth was about to come, Wei Shi felt resentment and deliberately had a dispute with her. gave birth.
At the beginning, Shen Wen was so angry that he ignored the friendship between his cousins and clamored to open an ancestral hall in the clan to see what kind of explanation Webster made his sister-in-law's dystocia.
Wei Shi was scared and happy at the same time, Liu Shi couldn't give birth, no matter how good it was, Boss Shen could still guard her for the rest of his life?Stealing the title of Mrs. Xiucai from her is the retribution!
Originally she was just a servant girl, a slave, she couldn't be more lowly, why should she be overpowered!
It's also because God has no eyes, at this time Webster found out that she was pregnant.The Liu family can't reproduce anymore, Shen Mu is a little brother, and the one in her belly is the eldest grandson of the Shen family!Not only Mrs. Shen, who has always favored her niece, but even old man Shen's tone has changed.
Later, Boss Shen's family went out of the house, and Webster's first child was a boy, and his waist became even harder.
That was really Webster's happiest time.After giving birth to the eldest grandson of the old Shen's family, she just felt that Liu Shi was overwhelmed in every way.
It's a pity that he is Shen's second son's child after all, and he is not a good-for-nothing material at all!Two sons were born, both of whom are not smart, and not suitable for studying.Although he has no contact with Dafang, Mrs. Xiucai's matter is a concern of Webster's.If you can't be a scholar's wife in this life, you can always be a scholar's mother, right?
The clever third child, Shen Goudan, is her only hope.
If it was Shen Gouzi and Shen Ergou who were taken away by the gambling house, of course she would be anxious, but she would never feel as uncomfortable as being gouged out now, crying quite sincerely: "Mother, don't you also It is often said, is Goudan the hope of our family? When Goudan is admitted as a scholar, our family will not have to pay taxes on the land, and we can save a lot of money in a year. At that time, don’t you honor your elders? I was persuaded by that bitch of the Liu family, and I didn't care about my grandson's life or death!"
"We are not bullying their orphans and widowed mothers. How can you say that there is a young brother who does not marry? If you let that bitch Liu make the decision, you will give the family property to Brother Mu as a companion. Our old Shen's money It fell into the hands of others!"
Ren Weishi cried again and again, but Mrs. Shen didn't dare to open her mouth to respond.Last night, the old man Shen had already told her the whole thing: "The second child looks like an unreliable prodigal. Goudan is only old this year, how many years can we live? Can we enjoy his blessings? It’s not as good as Mu Ge’er’s here. There are written evidences to prove that he can’t rely on him. The land and cash in the family are all given to the second child, and the house cannot be moved, and he can figure out the rest by himself.
Regardless of whether Mrs. Shen agrees with his statement in her heart, if the head of the family speaks, then the matter will be settled.She has two hearts that can never be the head of the family with herself.
Mrs. Shen avoided talking about Shen Mu's marriage, and directly changed the topic, took out a cloth bag wrapped in a handkerchief from under her buttocks, and said dryly: "Xiuzhen, your father and I are not cruel people, we must not Don’t care about Goudan. This is all the land deed and cash of our family, you and the second child will sell it, and redeem Goudan first for the silver.”
Old man Shen originally only asked her to give the land deed, but she had loved her youngest son and niece for so many years, and she had some genuine feelings. She tried to be scolded by the old man, and secretly put the three taels of cash at home in two taels—feelings belong to feelings, She was still not confused, and left money for her husband and wife for daily chewing.
Wei Shi wiped away his tears, looking at the cloth bag in Mrs. Shen's hand in a daze.She didn't expect that the elders of the Shen family would actually plan to sell the land. Farmers would not sell land easily, and she was a little puzzled: "Why do you want to sell the land? If this land is sold, what will our family eat next year?"
Mrs. Shen lowered her eyes: "Let the second child and Gouzi open up two acres of wasteland at that time. After all, it's important to redeem the dog eggs?" Old man Shen has already told her that from now on, Shen Mu will give two taels of silver every year. The couple's chewing is enough.Consumption in the village is low, and two taels of silver is enough for a family to survive for a year. There are only two of them, and they can live quite well.
As for these fields, Shen Laoer and his grandsons were originally planting them.When they die, they will be left to Shen Laoer, so let's give them in advance now.Whether it's land reclamation or starvation in the future, it depends on Shen Laoer's own ability, and it has nothing to do with them.Anyway, they gave everything they could as parents, and they did everything they could.
There was something wrong in Webster's mind. After selling the land, would the food for land reclamation be enough to eat?Is it enough to hand over a dog?
But she couldn't think much of it.Staring at the cloth bag in silence for a while, it was the desire to save her son that prevailed, and even Shen's second confession was thrown out of the blue. After receiving the cloth bag, she hurriedly went out to change her son.
Old lady Shen lowered her head, let out a complicated breath, raised her sleeves and wiped the corners of her eyes.It's because the second child didn't do good things, so he went to gamble instead of doing something bad, and even killed his elder brother.Originally, she really loved her youngest son and this niece, but there was nothing she could do about it!
When Shen Mu came back from the big market in the village, he had a catty of pork belly and a few pieces of muslin in his basket.
According to the rules of the village, if someone is hired to work and take care of the meal, the lunch meal must taste like meat.You don't need too much, half a catty is enough, just taste some oil stars.
The weather at the moment can't hold things, Shen Mu got up early, there is a big market in the village today, things are cheaper than going to the town by a penny or two.
As for those cloth heads, they were given to the village chief's family.Now that Song Bai is at the village head's house, eating and drinking other people's houses, he has to express that although Shen Mu is stingy, he is not ignorant of etiquette.You can only try to choose things with high cost performance, which are affordable and affordable.
Like this fine cloth head, each piece is only one or two feet, and the price is cheap.It is not enough to make clothes, but it is decent for a man to make a bag, and a woman to make a shoe upper and embroider a purse.Shen Mu wandered around the market for quite a while before he picked out these few pieces with good color and affordable price. Several pieces cost less than ten renminbi. live.
After shopping in the market, the sun was a little high, Shen Mu quickened his pace and walked towards the village, just entering the village, an aunt saw him, and hurriedly said: "Brother Mu, go to the village chief's house to have a look Bar."
Shen Mu's heart skipped a beat, the village head's house?Song Bai lives at the village chief's house. Could it be that something happened to Brother Bai?
The author has something to say: I will ask for leave tomorrow: I may have caught a cold due to too many cultivations or changing seasons to cool down...
As long as I sit, my nose will flow down unknowingly, and my TAT head hurts when I lie down...
After drinking Bailangen and Lianhua Qingwen Capsules, I don’t know if it will work...
