Siheyuan, I want to lie down but I become a tool

Chapter 454: A spendthrift old woman?

Before he could react, his wife asked him a barrage of questions.

"All you do all day is eat and sleep. You don't care about your daughter and grandson at all. I asked you to watch me build a wall, but now, we don't even have to lock the gate.

You said you were going to find Gen Wa Zi to stop sending gifts, but you ended up sending two chickens. You killed all the chickens while I was chasing people. How come you are so diligent normally..."

"Your settlement said that if there are any chickens, we should kill them, and it would be best if the grandson could take them all away."

"I told you to stop sending me the gift but you completely forgot about it. But now that I sent it to you, you remember it clearly. I've never seen you so quick and nimble before. Are you really going to pick a fight with me?"

"That can't be possible... maybe I'm just getting old and confused!"

After saying this, my mother covered her forehead and fell asleep. Zhang Xingwang looked at the old man who was almost doubting his life, and thought that he couldn't ruin the party, so he quickly asked Bai Xiaoya and the other person to toast the elder.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he smiled at his aunt, she felt guilty and looked around for fear of chatting with her. She raised her head and drank, then decisively lay down next to my mother, squinting her eyes and posing in the same posture as my mother.

With Bai Xiaoya, the community leader, and Zhang Xingwang's eloquence, the meal was very enjoyable. While the old lady was in the kitchen, the old man took a sip of wine and whispered to Zhang Xingwang:

"You have to keep the remaining half bottle for me. I have come to understand life now. I should be ignorant about everything. Don't be fooled by your grandmother's words. She just doesn't understand this principle. It's all women's views."

Before Zhang Xingwang could reply, he saw the old man stood up swiftly, and with a word, "Why don't you come over to help, you old man?", he agreed and walked slowly towards the kitchen. It seemed that he had even predicted what he was going to do.

Zhang Xingwang didn't get up late the next day, but except for his short-legged wife, even the little girl got up. The three aunts got up before dawn and returned home under the stars without even daring to say hello. According to the old man's analysis, they were probably scared, fearing that their nephew would give away a chicken or a duck alone.

Looking at the money handed over by the old man, Zhang Xingwang was a little puzzled. After asking, he found out that it was a gift from his aunts. Although it didn't look like much, it was a valuable gift. After all, the rules cannot be broken, so he took it and gave it to Bai Xiaoya.

My mother obviously looks a little guilty today, as if she had done something wrong. She keeps a distance from her daughter-in-law and blushes when she makes eye contact with her, as if their identities have been switched. She simply hides in the kitchen and pesters her mother-in-law for cooking advice. The relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the family is a mess.

The little girl kept pestering me and asked me why I didn't tell her yesterday. With tearful eyes, she looked like an abandoned kitten. She frowned and grabbed my waistband with a wronged look, hanging on it and shaking me.

The old man said with a smile that the little girl had been pulling for the whole morning, but no matter how his daughter-in-law explained, she was skeptical and tried to reason with him in a domineering manner.

She said that if I picked up the baby, I must raise it. I was old and would come back even if I gave it away. After listening to my mother's perfunctory response, I completely believed the "cruel" fact. My eyes darkened and mist filled my big eyes in an instant.

The little girl let go of her mother's belt when she saw Zhang Xingwang, and ran back and forth wiping her tears. When she got to him, she braked abruptly, pouted her lips and tried to show a pleading smile, her eyes full of desire, and timidly called him "brother".

Seeing Zhang Xingwang respond and open his arms, he rushed over like a young swallow, then burst into tears, with tears just like Zhang Guifen, and his little universe exploded. Although the aggrieved voice did not summon the Saint Seiya, it almost shook down the remaining walls of the courtyard.

The mother was so angry that her hair stood on end. She rushed back and forth with a spatula in her hand. In the desperate look of the little girl, she hugged her, pressed her on her knees and started to slap her butt with motherly love. It took no more than a minute for the little girl to go from struggling stubbornly to shouting "Mom" in her unbearable state.

After finally regaining his freedom, he immediately showed a look of unwillingness. After taking a lingering look at Zhang Xingwang, he decisively ran behind Bai Xiaoya, looking at his new sister-in-law with his big eyes for help. Only then did his mother, who was chasing him, stop, smiled unwillingly at Bai Xiaoya, stomped her feet, and turned to go to the kitchen.

The little girl saw that the crisis was over, and she forced a smile of gratitude on her tearful face. When the family members were not paying attention, she made a mocking expression to my mother. When my mother found out, she trembled all over, then covered her butt without looking back and ran out of the yard.

The old lady stopped her daughter-in-law who was about to start in second gear, and said with contempt that this was just a small scene, and said calmly:

"Why are you chasing her? How can she run away from home in such a big village? She's just a little kid, she will come back when she's hungry.

Which one of my babies hasn't run away before? When it was the worst, the siblings ran away together. The stubborn old girl ran away for half a year. She would run away whenever she felt she was not doing well. She would come back in the middle of the night to eat secretly when she was starving. You are just starting out. When you grow up, you won't be able to drive her away even if you beat her."

The old mother turned around twice in indignation, then went into the kitchen angrily to cook, and the old grandmother followed her into the kitchen.

Today's task is to braise two chickens and turn over and dry the grapes. She is also afraid that the night will be long and she will have trouble. The old lady knows what is going on and it is nonsense to give anything to her grandson's wife.

Their grandson's filial piety is so chaotic and now it's becoming more and more out of line. If the grandson suddenly runs away, it would be inappropriate for the old couple to eat two chickens without any festival.

How will the neighbors and villagers look at us? They are the old generation who starve to leave food for the younger generation, but they don’t think of doing this for themselves. I have heard of prodigal sons and prodigal women, but what am I? A prodigal old woman?

Before entering the door, he felt something was wrong and gave the idle old man a killing look.

"Alas... I'll go look after the little girl. It's a hard life..."

After watching her husband turn around and leave, the old lady felt satisfied and continued to wrestle with the chicken.

Zhang Xingwang took his short-legged wife into the back mountain and handed her Uncle Yougen's chubby pistol. Sure enough, the situation got out of control immediately. Bai Xiaoya, who got the gun, immediately smiled. She first looked at Zhang Xingwang charmingly, and then her temperament instantly surpassed that of a Samoyed and was almost as good as that of a Husky.

She walked like a rabbit, hopping and skipping, and looked around to see enemies. She gestured to Zhang Xingwang three times, which made Zhang Xingwang's heart beat faster even though the safety was not on. He rushed over and slapped her in the face, and only then did she calm down.
