The oil bottle of the Red Chamber

The return of the masters of the great victory in Guangdong to the court is a major event in the court. Naturally, the civil and military officials don't know how to raise funds for the female family members in the inner house.

The third sister You was busy for a few days, and made a plan for the young children's home, and sent it to the Chen family when Chen Gui was resting.The uncle and nephew talked in the study for a long time, and when everything was settled, the old lady Chen from the upper room sent someone to deliver the meal, and the two of them left the study.

Now it is New Year's Eve, and it should be a day for family reunion.Sister Wan was born to marry, and she has already followed her husband to take office.Although Mrs. Chen knew that the girl would not be allowed to stay in college, she was a little bit discouraged when she saw that the boudoir was empty.

When Chen Gui saw this, he had to search his guts and tell a thousand jokes to make the old lady happy, and Third Sister You also made fun of her.Because she was in charge of Chen Yuan's affairs, she created a collection of virtuous women, gathered all the noble daughters in Chang'an City, and the younger sister started chatting, mostly about housework and favors, so she knew the family's shortcomings best. .At this moment, the storyteller's chanting is for the old lady to listen to, the words are sharp and penetrating, not to mention the old lady, even the other people in the room are listening.

Seeing this, Mrs. Feng took Third Sister You's hand and said with a smile: "I like our third sister's temperament the most, even her conversation is straightforward. Unlike some girls from other families, who speak politely , I have a headache when I hear the twists and turns. I don’t know who will be lucky in the future to marry such a daughter-in-law.”

Ever since the second sister's marriage was decided, everyone put their eyes on her.In just three sentences, the important matter of marriage must be mentioned.Third Sister You has long been used to it.Just thinking about my current age, if it were put into modern times, I would be just a junior high school student.This meeting is about to think about lifelong events, it is really cruel.

Third Sister You let out a long sigh, and could only say, "I'm still young, so I don't worry about these things."

Mrs. Chen smiled when she heard the words, and said with a smile: "It's not too young. It's fourteen years later, and it's time to make arrangements. If it's later, I'm afraid it's too late, and I can't find any good people. "

"Then don't marry. Anyway, I can't make do with it." The third sister You calmly said with a smile: "If you want me to marry someone, this person's family background and appearance must be my match. Otherwise, regardless of his appearance Pan An is better than Shi Chong, and I don't want to."

Chen Gui was overjoyed when he heard the words, and couldn't help asking: "Then what kind of husband and son-in-law do you want, tell us."

Feng hurriedly spat at Chen Gui, pushed and said: "You are an uncle, don't talk about controlling her, you shouldn't indulge her. All the marriages of children have always followed the orders of their parents and the words of the matchmaker. There are people who I like. If it is passed on, how can this happen?"

After finishing speaking, she reprimanded Third Sister You and said, "You are too. From a young age, I know that you are wild and arrogant. But you can't leave Ge'er like this. Always be like this, and be careful when you marry in the future. If you go to your in-law's house, you will suffer."

After hearing what her sister-in-law said, Mrs. Chen couldn't help agreeing: "Sister-in-law doesn't know that the third sister is very angry now. I have always advised her to pay more attention to her life's affairs, but she either perfunctory me or hesitated. I don't I know what she's thinking. Could it be that she has made up her mind not to marry?"

These words have reached the heart of Third Sister You.She glanced at everyone with a smile, and said: "I didn't think about not getting married for the rest of my life. But I didn't think about getting married right away. I'm a person who seeks pleasure. It's so easy to come to this world once, naturally. You have to enjoy yourself. Now that I am an aunt at home, I don’t have to worry about food and clothing, and I have a business to manage. I don’t know how happy I am. If this is the case, why do I bother to make myself suffer? , It’s not appropriate to leave a well-behaved aunt and grandma, and rush to be a daughter-in-law for others? If you meet a reasonable one, it’s fine. Hello, me, hello everyone. I just want to tie me down, calculate my dowry and natal family's power, and want me to take care of the housework and have children for them, and maybe in the future I will have to educate them for the concubine children born by my aunt... After all my busy work, I finally got nothing. It's just a place to live, and what I see when I look up is the square sky, which is no different from my current life. But I have spent half my life trying to make a nest for others, wronging myself, and comforting others , why am I doing this? Such a loss-making business, naturally I have to meet someone who can make me willing to pay back. So I can't act too hastily. I have to see it with my own eyes... What do you think? This reason?"

The third sister You spoke slowly and leisurely. After such a long speech, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, dumbfounded.Can't think of any words to respond at all.

After a long silence, it was uncle Chen Gui who came back to his senses first, burst out laughing, pointed at Third Sister You and slapped the table with a smile: "Okay, good, good, you are indeed my niece of Chen Gui. These words are really hearty. The daughter of our Chen family was born to be blessed. Not to mention marrying into her in-law’s family, even marrying into the family of the Heavenly King Laozi, the girl of our family will not let others suffer, how can she be angry with other people’s family!”

Hearing what Chen Gui said, Mrs. Chen and Feng's sister-in-law were very angry.Feng Shi punched Chen Gui bitterly, and reprimanded: "Where are you such overbearing people? Since ancient times, it is the duty of a daughter to marry a husband and raise a child. How dare you say such a thing?" Come on..."

The third sister You smiled and looked at the aunt who was like a chicken, and couldn't help laughing: "Why is my aunt still scolding me? I am also a daughter, so you should help me. Even a big man like uncle is willing to help Me, this shows that my words are still good."

Feng was furious when she heard the words, pointed at Chen Gui and said, "Your uncle is a worthless person. He is not from his daughter's family, so how can he know the suffering of her daughter's family. This world has always been harsh on her daughter. He just follows the rules and still Some people complained endlessly. What's more, you said something like this again. Do you really want to piss us off?"

After hearing the words, Third Sister You smiled and looked at Mrs. Chen again.Chen had no choice but to say: "I agree with your thoughts from the bottom of my heart. But your aunt is right, the world always blames your daughter's family. If you are too out of line, you will suffer in the end. It is better to be obedient and find A well-rounded family, just marry yourself."

Third Sister You smiled knowingly, then looked at her uncle and said, "It seems that not only men restrain women in this world, but women also make things difficult for women!"

The uncle nodded knowingly, and echoed with empathy: "Isn't it? If you count it seriously, this woman is always stronger than a man. Otherwise, when the world describes who is not easy to mess with, they always say tigress, Where is the dominatrix!"

One sentence successfully angered the three women of the Chen family.Everyone raised eyebrows and couldn't help criticizing Chen Gui.

The young couple Chen Rong and Mrs. Xu were also young, so it was not easy for them to intervene in front of their elders, so they could only smile and not say a word.On the contrary, brother Zhao is still young, and he doesn't understand the "pros and cons" of it, he just thought that everyone was laughing, and immediately clapped his hands for joy.

When everyone saw each other, they had to look at each other.Eventually the laugh will come out.

Because of Third Sister You's lies, all the female family members of the Chen family became more and more worried about the marriage of Third Sister You.Every time I want to secretly plan to look after Sanjieer, I ask Sanjieer to see through it at a glance.Third Sister You is free-spirited by nature, and she is not a person who compromises.But she also knows the kindness of the elders in the family, and she can't bear to be too rebellious and cause her family to worry.After thinking about it, it would be better to speak with the facts, first to dispel everyone's idea of ​​rushing to clear her as if she was under pressure, and then to plan other things.

So everyone in the Chen family went out to see the outstanding children of various families, and the third sister You was also secretly inquiring about the private affairs of each family's back house.When Mrs. Chen came to discuss with the third sister with the name of the young master, the third sister also took out a stack of papers, which recorded that the children of each family went to the brothel, drank flowers and wine, and took care of the outer house. Even the private matters that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law do not frame each other with the fighting aunts and sisters-in-law.In short, no matter which character Chen chooses with all four corners, Miss You can always pick out all kinds of unsatisfactory things.

In less than two months, soldiers like You Sanjie came and swept away thousands of troops with a single move that blocked water and earth, and wiped out all the children of officials and noble families in Chang'an City.When the angry members of the Chen family were almost looking for lovers in other provinces, the third sister You finally made the next move.

She took Chen's sign language and analyzed earnestly: "The reason why Mom and the elders chose someone for me in Chang'an City is to know the basics. Besides, my uncle's family is in Chang'an, and he will take care of him. In the future, I will marry him." I won’t be at a disadvantage. These calculations are for my own good, and I know it all. But if it’s so, I can find out these embarrassing things. It can be seen that people’s hearts are unpredictable. Could it be different if we change people’s hearts from other provinces? If you’re not familiar with their temperament, wouldn’t you be waiting to be deceived and take advantage of it? Then the two tigers will fight, is Mom serious about wanting me to die, or is she trying to force me to kill someone else?”

"..." Third Sister You's words were so cruel that Mrs. Chen didn't know how to react.

Third Sister You continued: "Everyone in the world thinks that when a daughter is alive, she should take care of her husband and teach her son, and regard her husband as the god. My mother and elders also came here like this, so I don't want me to be too different and be praised by the world. This is because you love me Meaning. But my daughter is used to being self-willed, if she can't live according to her own will, she will be a living dead if she follows the rules all her life, what's the fun in that?"

Before she could finish her sentence, Mrs. Chen spat on the ground in a hurry, and cursed: "It's good, you don't feel taboo about talking about life and death. Since you know that we are doing it for your own good, Why are you so stubborn. Just listen to us. Could it be that I, a mother, will harm you? "

Third Sister You smiled and said: "Mom is naturally good to me. It's just that I'm still young and haven't played enough, so I don't have to rush to get married in such a hurry. Besides, my daughter's family is too early. If you marry and have children, your body is not yet fully developed, and you will lose your body. It is also easy to be bullied, which is really not beneficial."
