Mrs. Shen is working in the town. If Chen Xiaomi is free, she will take Shen Chi and Chen Xiaocai to the countryside.
All the vegetables and radishes in the town need money to buy. In line with the principle of saving, Chen Xiaomi has to go to the countryside to move things from time to time.
Chen Xiaomi came home just in time for Lu Tong.
In this era, when a daughter gets married for a month, she and her son-in-law usually buy things and send them to the father-in-law's home. The more things the son-in-law buys, the better the daughter's life in the son-in-law's home is, and the parents can rest assured.
Lu Lin is a burden, and should have to go back. However, Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi are too troublesome to go back.
Lu Lin was very ill when he entered Chen Xiaomi's family, and no one reasoned at that time. However, later, Chen Xiaomi's family became better off, and some people accused Lu Lin of being ungrateful and never coming back when he married. However, Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi did not take it seriously.
According to Lu Lin's marriage, even if they send a bunch of things back home, they will be ridiculed. They are not people who care about fame, so they will not do this thankless thing.
Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi are not at home. In fact, Uncle Chen has already secretly come to their house. However, everything in the house has been basically empty. Uncle Chen came here once and got nothing.
Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi live in a relatively biased place, and no one found them at first. However, after a long time, they were found.
Lu Lin said to the outside world that he had found a job in the town and lived in it for the time being.
Lu Lin's words immediately aroused the envy of the villagers. A stable job in the town is equivalent to a golden rice bowl. Lu an's two liang silver job has aroused the envy of many people. Now Lu Lin has found a life in the city, and many villagers sigh that Chen Xiaomi and Lu Lin have a good time.
"Brother." Chen Xiaocai went to Chen Xiaomi and said secretly, "brother, Lu Tong came back alone."
Chen Xiaomi can't help but be surprised. He and Lu Lin have a bad reputation. They just broke the jar. However, Lu Tong has always been very important. On such an important day, Lu Tong came back alone to let those gossipy women in the village see. They don't know what to say.
However, Lu Tong's newly married husband let her come back alone on such an important day. It seems that the new husband's care for Lu Tong is limited.
Lu Lin thinks of Lu Tong's disgusting face after the original owner fell into the water, and immediately feels that Lu Tong deserves it.
The Lu family
looking at his daughter, Tang couldn't help feeling a little nauseous.
Tang only thinks that things are not going well recently. His eldest son's wife is a loser. The master doesn't take them seriously at all. So does his daughter's family. They have been married for so long, and they don't even have a letter. It's hard to wait until they get back. Only her daughter comes back alone.
In contrast, at the beginning, everyone thought that it would be a bad life for Lu Lin to give Chen Xiaomi. Chen Xiaomi made a living.
Recently, when people in the village talk about Chen Xiaomi, although they are still in the majority, many people think that Chen Xiaomi has the ability to make money. Fame is nothing, but silver is real.
"Where's your husband?" Asked Tang.
Lu Tong is full of depressed way: "the boy in the family is ill, the husband went to ask the doctor to see a doctor for him."
Tang's stuffy way: "that dead boy, how early not sick, late not sick, pick this time sick, don't be intentional?"
Lu Tong curled his lips and said: "who knows him!"
Lu Tong married to her husband's family and had a bad life. Li Ji was quite good to her, but the old lady always picked her nose and eyes.
After Lu Tong married, the old lady sent her to cook and wash clothes, asked her to help mend her clothes, and even asked her to pick the dung.
Lu Tong thinks the Li family is looking for a daughter-in-law.
When Lu Tong was in the Lu family, she always dreamed of becoming a rich wife. She was afraid that her hands would be rough, and she didn't do anything about cooking and washing. Tang also thought that her daughter was good-looking, which was the life of Guan's wife. In the past, when Er Fang was there, she left everything to ER Fang to do, which made Lu Tong indulge in nothing.
Lu Tong cooks in Li's house. Every time she cooks too much, she either cooks too much. The old lady is very dissatisfied with Lu Tong. She always scolds Lu Tong for being lazy.
The child at home may have heard what the villagers said. If he has a stepmother, he will have a stepfather. He takes Lu Tong as an enemy and is on guard everywhere.
Lu Tong's temperament is not very good. Seeing the child as an enemy, they don't pay attention to the child. They are tired of each other. Tang's daughter-in-law is a loser. When the married daughter comes back, she doesn't bring anything. When she comes back alone, Tang feels that her face will be lost.
Tang's some complain of looking at Lu Tong, way: "today return door, how do you have nothing to take?"
Lu Tong saw his mother's dislike of him, secretly sad for a while.
Lu Tong thought that when she entered the door, the old lady Wang was waiting by the door. Lu Tong also thought that her grandmother was fine and had been waiting for her long time ago. However, when the old lady saw that she came alone with empty hands, she scolded her and walked away. Lu Tong was very embarrassed as if she had been splashed with a basin of cold water.There's no preparation at home.
Tang's black face, said: "your husband's family is too bullying."
"Where's my sister-in-law?" Lu Tong asked.
Tang's stuffy way: "back to my mother's home."
Last time Li fangyue and Lu Chengyu came back, they still didn't see the master. Lu Chengyu and Li Hong had a dispute, and they quarreled. When he came back, Tang was disappointed to hear that he had not yet reached the line of master book.
Recently, the old lady has become more and more dissatisfied with Li fangyue. She only thinks that Li fangyue is not a woman worthy of Lu Chengyu. From time to time, she has to scold her. Li fangyue has repeatedly talked about things with the master's book. At first, the old lady tolerated it. Later, she thinks that the master's book doesn't care much about her sister-in-law. She doesn't show up when she gets married or when she comes back.
Maybe she was squeezed by the old lady. In a fit of anger, Li fangyue went back to her mother's home.
The Tang family is a little worried. It's not related to the marriage. Maybe it's going to take revenge.
"Your brother went to see her. After all, he's married. What's the matter with staying in his mother's house all the time?" Tang Shi is full of sorrow.
Lu Tong laughs sarcastically and says: "Niang! If your sister-in-law wants to go back, let her go back. It's no big deal. You've been cheated this time. "
Tang Shi saw Lu Tong one eye, way: "what do you say?"
Lu Tong said with a smile: "I also know by chance that my sister-in-law is not the master's wife, but a concubine."
Tang suddenly burst up, some angry way: "daughter, this can't talk nonsense! There is a big difference between the status of a wife and a concubine. The concubine's children have no right of inheritance. Even the common people look down on them. "
"Niang, am I such a loose person? I know this by accident. However, it should not be wrong. If you don't think about it, how old is Li fangyue? If she has such good conditions, people in the town will know when she is that old. That is to say, we rural people can't get the news and are cheated by those matchmakers. " Lu Tong sighed, a little schadenfreude in her heart.
Lu Dan is actually very angry with her parents. Her unhappy life in the Li family has a lot to do with her poor dowry. The Li family gave her 20 liang of silver, but the family didn't give her one or two of their own money. Lu Tong thinks that she was sold by her family.
Lu Tong resents her elder brother and sister-in-law because of this. When she knows Li fangyue's elder sister Li Ru is just a concubine, Lu Tong has a different pleasure in her heart.
Tang Shi's face was very blue. She always wondered why the master didn't come to the wedding banquet. If Li Ru was the master's concubine, it would be easy to understand.
The status of concubines is low, so the master doesn't have to worry about their marriage.
Tang's bite teeth, heart gas to vomit blood, but also had to help cover up, "this matter, you don't go out nonsense."
There are a lot of rumors about their family in the village these days. If we let people know that the daughter of a wealthy family whom they took great pains to marry is just the sister of a humble concubine, their family will surely be laughed to death.
Lu Tong nodded, said: "I save, but mother, you have to keep an eye on, Li fangyue this woman also too seriously, mother, you can't always let people ride on the head!"
Tang Shi hated the way: "the Li family is also too shameless, so pit your elder brother, your sister-in-law actually has the face to use back home to pinch your elder brother." Tang was shocked by the news that Lu Tong brought back, and forgot to investigate Lu Tong's return alone.
"Niang, what news do Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi have?"
Tang said: "who knows? It's said that these two restless guys are running to the town all day now. It seems that they have found a job in the town. I don't know who actually found these two guys to work. Chen Xiaomi is not good at it!" Lu an's job is admired and watched by many people in the village. In order to keep his job, the old man gives gifts to the people on Lu an every year.
"Why do you ask this?" Asked Tang.
Lu Tong shook his head and said, "there's not much money to be sold in Huaxia shop recently." The old lady of the Li family also bought a small schoolbag for the little grandson of the Li family, a small schoolbag. She bought 700 Wen, which is really luxurious.
"What does this have to do with Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi?"
Lu Tong was silent for a while, and said: "someone saw that Chen Xiaomi talked with the manager of the business firm. Chen Xiaomi and Lu Lin may be working in that shop."
Tang said: "I've never heard of this Chinese business. I'm afraid it's a black shop. If the boss knows Chen Mi's background, he won't use him."
Lu Tong vaguely thinks that Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi are mysterious recently. However, never in a dream, Chen Xiaomi and Lu Lin have bought two homes in the town.
Lin Xiuer looked at Tang Shi and said: "Xiao Tong came back, why didn't she bring anything? Did you have a bad time at my husband's house? "
Tang Shi is taut a face, way: "where ah is Li family there gave a little special circumstance."No matter how special the situation is, you shouldn't even show your face when you come back! This let the villagers see, how to think?
Lin Xiuer thinks that the recent days are getting worse and worse. She has more and more jobs at home, but her food is getting worse and worse.
The old lady is more and more anxious about money recently. Lin Xiuer had expected Lu Tong to come back with some meat to improve her food. As a result, Lu Tong came back empty handed.
