Silly Scholar's Wife

"The third brother is really generous."

Liu Shi looked at the things Mu Chenxi sent, her face was full of shame, "Our family's life is difficult, and we want to give more, but we are powerless."

"Yes, we are reluctant to buy something."

Wang Shi also said, she looked at Mu Chenxi with a smile, "Third brother is really not what he used to be, it's not that he needed two older brothers to love and pamper him back then, and I want to leave you something."

"It's up to you to give as much or as little as you want."

Mu Chenxi didn't answer the question, but said with a slight smile.

He looked at the silk flowers and handkerchiefs they sent, "Sister-in-law, you are also caring. You can buy the silk flowers in the town, even if you make them yourself, no one will dislike them. They are more heartfelt."

He looked at the people around him and pointed to the things in their hands, "Looking at these gifts, they are really much better than before. Now that life is easier, everyone wants to give more."

"Little sister! You are so lucky."

Mu Chenxi glanced at Mu Xinyue and said with a smile: "At that time, my eldest sister didn't send anything because her family was having a hard time. But from one moment to another, everything can't be compared, it depends on everyone's ability."

"It's like big brother and the others now earn a few taels of silver a month."

Mu Chenxi patted his elder brother on the shoulder, the smile on his face remained unchanged, "I'll buy you a silver hairpin right away, within my ability, without swollen face, without losing my heart, that's how we should be."

"This is what we as brothers should do."

Although Mu Chenhui is honest, he is very rational. He looked at his younger brother, "Even the little one, Chen Xi, knows that he is capable. He should help his family and relatives. Even many strangers are willing to be selfless. Help. How can we brothers still lag behind, even for such a big event as our own sister's engagement, we are not willing to give some good gifts."

"That's right, we really didn't expect your brothers to earn so much money in a month!"

"Yes, in the past, I didn't have to give it away if I wanted to, but now I have it naturally."

Although those relatives had subtle eyes, the smiles on their faces remained the same, and all of them were full of praise.We are all members of the Mu family, so you can't lose face in front of those who are hired.

Father Mu came over at this time, looked at Mu Chenxi and the others, and said to those relatives: "In my whole life, the greatest pride I have had is that I have raised several good children. The family is harmonious and helps each other. No one picks and hates."

When he smoothed things out like this, the big guys immediately agreed, and they all agreed to turn this delicate atmosphere into a family of brothers and sisters loving each other, and the scene suddenly became lively again.

Looking at all this, Zhao Huan smiled silently, stopped paying attention to this side, and went to congratulate Zhang Cheng and the others face to face.

…………

"Where did you get the money for the hairpin?"

Liu's complexion was very ugly, and it could be seen at a glance that she had endured it for a long time.As soon as the guests left, she couldn't wait to ask Mu Chenhui.

"I made money by carving ornaments."

Mu Chenhui looked at her and said calmly.

"Then why didn't you give it to me?"

Liu's family was very angry. Mu Chenhui dared to save money and even bought hairpins for her sister. She really had nowhere to spend her money, and she was not willing to buy it herself.

"Three taels a month is not enough to give you a penny, how much more do you want?"

Sitting there, Mu Chenhui said with a faint smile: "You are not the only one who has the final say on this family. The reason I entrust the wages to you is because you are my wife, and because I am afraid that I will not be at home. What needs no money."

"But look, what do you do with this house?"

Mu Chenhui's eyes were full of disappointment, "I can understand that you don't want to spend money, spend money, and manage your family frugally. I'm also glad that you can think about your family. But what kind of children do you raise? Apart from feeding them, What did you give them?"

"Who's not like this, don't you eat big fish and meat like your brother's?"

Liu sneered, looked at Mu Chenhui and said mockingly: "Do you have that ability? You just want to eat and drink like that after getting back a few taels of silver."

"I used to earn four or five hundred wen a month, and my mother didn't let us have nothing to eat for a whole month. You didn't think I made less money, and you said that all the money I earned was handed over to the public."

Mu Chenhui said everything word by word, "I don't think so much now, is it compared with the third brother and the others? But I just can't bear it, I just point at my brother to eat, he doesn't dislike me, what do you dislike? Is there any money you earn in this family? Is there any room for you to make decisions? "

"I rely on you and don't quarrel with you. I just look at the children and the parents to save face, and I don't want the family to have no peace."

"Look at how much other people's men earn a month, and then look at other people's children. What does your mother feed? No matter how poor the family is, who doesn't try to make their children eat better?"

"Chen Xi almost raised Jing Xing, and you said that he can't live without eating and drinking, did you use your penny? Every time he and his brother-in-law brought things back to their parents, they bought some sweets and pastries specially. Don’t be blind, it’s all for the kids.”

When Mu Chenhui said this, he suddenly felt very tired. He didn't want to talk to her any more. He stood up and said, "I'm not willing to rest at all after lunch. I just want to make more money to buy food for my children. These things You don't have to worry about it, I will give you the wages as usual, you can do whatever you want, I will not take a penny."

"You stop."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Mrs. Liu stood up and stopped Mu Chenhui, "How much money do you have left, hand it over to me. Also, why didn't you tell me about the hairpin you bought for your sister? I am the housekeeper and everything is up to me."

"How much money is there? I earned it myself. I can't even spend the money I earned. Why should I hand it over to you? Can you give me a penny?"

Seeing her standing in front of him, Mu Chenhui felt even more powerless. He looked at Liu Shi coldly, "I am the head of the family. I will give you the money and let you be the master. That is my respect for you." .If you don't want this respect, you won't get a penny in the future."

"You dare, this is not your home alone, why can't I take care of it?"

When Liu Shi heard that he would not pay the money, she became very emotional, and her voice became louder and louder, "Why didn't you tell me when you bought a hairpin for your sister? You still regard me as your family, this is your respect"

"Tell you"

Mu Chenhui was laughed at by her. He doesn't know how to reason with Liu Shi now, "I bought you a hairpin, and you scolded me for two months, saying that I can't live. If you tell me My sister buys hairpins, will you scold me for a year?"

"You know that I don't agree, but you still buy it without telling it. You are scolding yourself."

Liu's attitude was very tough, "Do you think it's okay to keep it from me? Let me tell you, don't expect me to pay a penny when she gets married. That hairpin will be used as a wedding makeup."

"Why do I have to ask you to agree that it's my money, and that's my sister. In order not to quarrel with you, I'll find a way to make money myself, can't it be difficult?"

Mu Chenhui pushed her away with one hand, "Since you don't want to give you face, then don't blame me for not seeing you, and don't expect me to give you a penny in the future. In addition, if you dare to make trouble at home, go back to your mother's house by yourself Well, it's the same as whether you choose divorce or divorce, this is the last respect I will give you."

…………

At the same time, it was almost the same scene in Mu Chenchu's room. Facing Wang's questioning voice, he just smiled indifferently.

"If you want to ask me, then I'll ask you something first."

Mu Chenchu ​​is much more talkative than his elder brother, so he shouldn't give face if he doesn't show it, "You said that the third brother was loved and doted on by us, and you should give him some good things, right?"

"It's hard, isn't it?"

Seeing him, Wang was furious, not caring about Mu Chenchu's usual behavior, "Your brother, you all treat him like a treasure, but now that he's developed, he actually came to slap you in the face, what the hell is he sending so many congratulatory gifts?" mean"

"It means that there is no need to tell you."

Mu Chenchu ​​smiled and told Wang: "You're right. We love our third brother and dote on him. But you have to think clearly, we are the ones who treat him well, not you, sister-in-law. You have no right to treat him well." Make irresponsible remarks in front of you."

"Also! Don't say that we give all our things to the third brother. The family keeps them. I won't be afraid of you wherever you go to reason."

Mu Chenchu ​​didn't mean to be angry at all, his face was full of smiles, he looked at Wang Shi and said: "In the past, you talked nonsense with Liu Shi and let him hear it on purpose, but I saw it with my own eyes. The reason why I didn't say anything , I don’t want to make these things public and make this family unharmonious, so I can only wrong my third brother, I know he thinks the same way.”

"Also, don't send the child to the mother again, and let the child look after it. Cook when the time comes, and don't leave the child there. I will give you the money, so that there will be no rice at home. pot."

When Wang heard these words, she froze in place.She didn't expect Mu Chenchu ​​to know all this, and she didn't even show any strange expression.

Even though he is not at home all day, he knows everything about the house clearly.Her small thoughts are completely under his control, she doesn't know what to say now.

"Think about it!"

Mu Chenchu ​​patted her on the shoulder. Unexpectedly, the days are getting better now, and Wang is still the same as before, "Although you didn't enjoy the blessings in Mu's house, no one ever gave you a face. Choose tolerance for the sake of family harmony."

He was about to go out after he finished speaking, and when he reached the door, he turned around and said: "Although my mother is strong, she has punished you for doing things, but they are all housework. She never beat or scolded or refused to eat like other people's houses. You have complaints about the third brother. She didn’t ask you to pay a penny for your own embroidery, but leave it all to you. Go and see which one is like ours. People need to be satisfied. If you are really dissatisfied, you can If I change to another one, I will not stop it."

…………

The two brothers, Mu Chenhui and Mu Chenchu, took care of the housework by themselves, and neither father Mu nor Mu Chenxi stepped forward.

Once the family is separated, you must have the awareness of separating the family, live your own life, and don't need to think about, intervene in, or meddle in other people's family affairs, even brothers.

"young married woman."

Mu Chenxi drove the car home, he asked Zhao Huan: "Brother, they earn so much more than before, why are they even more unhappy?"

"Because someone has a better life than them."

Zhao Huan smiled, these things can be said to be clear at a glance, "Don't you understand?"

"Oh."

Mu Chenxi didn't look at Zhao Huan, of course he knew it, but he was afraid that Zhao Huan would be unhappy because of his own thoughts, "That can't be helped, my daughter-in-law can make money, whoever looks at her will make money."

"Aren't you worried about your elder brother at all? If there is a real quarrel, or if you lose your temper and go back to your mother's house, what will you do then?"

Zhao Huan looked at him amusedly, but he didn't expect that he didn't care at all, "You don't want to try to persuade, you just put the car on as soon as the guests left, without even delaying."

"Stay to listen to the quarrel?"

Mu Chenxi looked at Zhao Huan with a puzzled face, as if he didn't understand anything, "We quarrel when they are here, big brother and their faces are so ugly, let's save some face for them!"

"We will not come back if we have nothing to do in the future. If we wait for us to go to Rongdu, we will be far away. The mountains are high and the water is far away. I don't believe they will chase us."

Mu Chenxi smiled slyly and said: "When they find out that we have given away all our property and don't care about anything, they will stop thinking about trouble and live an honest life!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Huan sighed, "What can make them feel at ease is that we have nothing, and if we stay far away, everyone will stop!"
