Dressed as a blacksmith

Seeing the bumps on the broom shake, Xu Xiuhua howled even more pitifully, but there were no tears.

Those who were older hurriedly stood up and made peace, "Yu family, what are you doing? If you have something to say, talk about it, we are all in the same village, and you are still in-laws."

Several generations of the Yu family have been blacksmiths, and they have always treated people with kindness and kindness. They usually have nothing to say to the people in Xianhe Village, and they basically don't take any odds.People who knew the good and the bad all accepted this sentiment, and hurriedly tried to persuade them: "The Yu family, what's the matter, if you have something to say, let's comment together."

Lin Cuifen was furious, "Brother Yuan is not feeling well today and can't get out of bed. When she came to the door, she asked Yuan to come out to greet her in a weird way. I was thinking that the child was not feeling well, so I asked her to be considerate and considerate. She doesn't want to, the one who opens and shuts up is the little bastard, who is she scolding?"

This word is generally used to scold women and brothers who do not obey women's morals. Using this word to scold one's own children is ugly enough, and everyone can't respond to it when they hear it.

Xu Xiuhua naturally denied it, "I didn't! You're talking nonsense!"

"You have! I heard it!" Yu Shanwu retorted.

Children will not lie about this kind of thing, and the Yu family has always believed that the scales in the hearts of everyone onlookers are biased towards the Yu family.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xu Xiuhua slapped her hands completely recklessly, "Oh! I'm dead, the head of the family, where are you? The whole family bullied me!"

"Is there anyone more ruthless than Brother Yuan? I haven't been home once since I got married. Not to mention anything else, I don't have the basic etiquette of returning home! His parents died early, and I wasted my shit." Pulling him so big, he has climbed up to a high branch and denied me as an uncle!"

"He can sell cakes at Qiao's house, but he can't go back to see me and his uncle. It doesn't matter if he and I are together, and he doesn't care about his grandma!"

Lin Cuifen retorted, "You're talking nonsense! On the second day of the wedding, I came to tell you that I would come back when Brother Yuan felt refreshed, and you clearly agreed!"

"He can sell cakes at your house! I don't think he has anything to do!"

Qiao Yuan let Yu Dameng help him out, and when he heard this sentence, he quickly pinched himself, and immediately entered the scene to wipe his tears, pretending to be sad and said: "Auntie, what are you talking about?"

Xu Xiuhua was used to playing tricks in front of Qiao Yuan, and when she saw him, she frantically rushed towards him.

Qiao Yuan was taken aback, this old woman is too rude and domineering!

Yu Dameng quickly protected Qiao Yuan behind him, and glared viciously at Xu Xiuhua, who was rushing towards him, with a very bluffing and vicious look.

Xu Xiuhua's voice trembled all of a sudden, and she stopped halfway, but she still put her hands on her hips and said, "What? Do you still dare to hit me?"

Lin Cuifen can beat her, but Yu Dameng can't, she is now Yu Dameng's serious elder, she doesn't believe that Yu Dameng dares to fight.

Thinking of this, she straightened her waist even more, and sneered at Qiao Yuan: "Oh, Brother Yuan, it's a big deal that you're married, because someone is backing you up."

Qiao Yuan was very speechless, he just wanted to live in Yu's house in peace and stability, and he didn't want to recall this villain from Yuanshen's memory at all, she just wanted to come to the door!Qiao Yuan shook Yu Dameng's arm lightly to signal him not to be angry, then walked slowly to the crowd, and said lightly: "My uncle said this, the married brothers next to me are all supported by their mother's family, but I still have to rely on my husband's family to support me." ,this......"

Someone couldn't hold back a burst of laughter.

The butcher's sister-in-law Zhang saw that Qiao Yuan had been supporting her waist, and asked bluntly, "Brother Yuan, what's wrong with you? Why have you been supporting your waist?"

Qiao Yuan said hello to her, and then began to talk nonsense in a serious manner, "Oh! This is an old problem of mine. I hurt my waist when I was fetching water, and it hurts again on a cloudy day."

When this refers to before, everyone knows it well.

Xu Xiuhua quit, and said angrily, "What do you mean?"

Before Qiao Yuan could say anything, Xu Xiuhua's neighbor, Aunt Wu, said cheerfully, "You don't know what it means!"

Aunt Wu's husband's family and Qiao's family have been neighbors for several generations, and they have always lived in peace, but since Xu Xiuhua married into Qiao's family, the two families have never stopped, quarreling over trivial matters every now and then.Aunt Wu couldn't get used to Xu Xiuhua, so she happily said a few more words at this moment, "When brother Yuan was at home, why didn't he do your housework? This is the root of the disease at a young age!"

All of a sudden, everyone discussed, "It's true, I saw Brother Yuan fetching water by the well with my own eyes, and I couldn't stand that little man who took one step and two steps, and ordered my man to help carry him home. "

"I've seen it too, in the winter, wearing such thin clothes, washing clothes by the river, and having chilblains all over your hands, alas!"

Although there are no older brothers and sisters in the village who don't work at home, they are all light jobs, and they are not as troublesome as Xu Xiuhua.People with discerning eyes could already tell that Xu Xiuhua was treating her harshly on purpose, but after all, it was not her own business, and no one wanted to interfere in such a matter.

Xu Xiuhua was furious, and wanted to run to Aunt Wu again. Aunt Wu was not afraid of her, and several daughters-in-law were by her side. If Xu Xiuhua dared to beat her, she would tear her to pieces.

Fortunately, Xu Xiuhua braked the car wisely, and now she directed all her anger at Qiao Yuan, who she thought was the most bully in the audience, "You black heart! I raised you so much! You treat me like this !"

As he spoke, he sat on the ground and cried loudly, as if he had been bullied.

This trick is quite clever, Qiao Yuan thought, people in ancient times valued filial piety, and outsiders would say that Xu Xiuhua had nurtured him at least in the eyes of outsiders. If he dared to speak rudely to Xu Xiuhua, he would be unfilial and let down Xu Xiuhua's nurturing grace .Qiao Yuan thought about it, why don't he just pretend to be pitiful, if you know it, I will too!

He pretended to hit a tree to seek death, Yu Dameng was startled, and ran faster than Qiao Yuan, but Qiao Yuan bumped into Yu Dameng's hard chest, causing him to grimace in pain.

"Yuan...Brother Yuan, what are you doing?" Yu Dameng hugged Qiao Yuan tightly, his tone flustered.

What a fool!Qiao Yuan covered his sore nose, pinched Yu Dameng's waist, and gave him winks. Yu Dameng seemed to understand something suddenly, but he still hugged Qiao Yuan and refused to let go.

Qiao Yuan had no choice but to continue performing in this posture, "I'm dead!"

"Brother Yuan, why do you say such things?" someone asked.

Qiao Yuan pretended to be miserable, "I think all uncles and aunts have heard about my hanging on the wedding night."

The villagers laughed dryly, not knowing what they were thinking, but they denied it: "It's all rumors, don't..."

"It's true! But it's definitely not because of my husband's family, it's her!"

Qiao Yuan pointed at Xu Xiuhua, and without giving Xu Xiuhua a chance to respond, she said immediately: "She asked my husband's family for eight taels of dowry, but she didn't pay any dowry. On the wedding night, I opened those two broken boxes and took a look. The clothes you wear on weekdays! It’s so heavy when you lift it up, because she put a big stone in it to weigh it down!”

The scene suddenly exploded like a pot, "Eight taels?"

"That's too much! I knew I would marry my daughter to the Yu family!"

"Isn't the Yu family still in debt? How can they offer so much dowry?"

"Everyone is setting up shop in the city, and the debt must have been paid off long ago!"

"So much dowry and no dowry at all! It's so embarrassing."

In Da Chu, because elder brothers are not as easy to raise as women, the mother's family who loves elder brothers will usually give elder brothers more dowry so that their elder brothers can gain a foothold in their husband's family.No matter how bad it is, the most basic new clothes, acacia quilts, mandarin duck pillows, love pots and pots, and dressing boxes are all indispensable for ordinary people.What's more, the Yu family's dowry is still so much.

"Uncle, she despised me so much! I thought about all the hardships I suffered at home before I got married. I lost my parents at a young age. I felt that my life was miserable, so I hanged myself when I couldn't think about it..."

Qiao Yuan wiped away his tears, and said: "Fortunately, my husband's family and my husband are kind-hearted. After I woke up, they comforted me in every possible way. I feel that there is hope in my life, and I gradually think about it."

Some aunts became soft-hearted when they got older, and they all felt uncomfortable: "Brother Yuan, why are you so stupid, you can't do such a thing again!"

Qiao Yuan nodded and untied the sweat scarf around his neck, "The injury on my neck is healed now, it was too conspicuous before, and I was afraid that it would cause misunderstanding, so I didn't reply for three days The door, thinking about going back after the injury is healed, my mother-in-law had already informed my aunt about this, and she agreed."

Everyone saw that it had been several days and there were still red marks, it must be an indistinct injury.Thinking about the speculation and rumors in the village in the past few days, I feel very understandable why Brother Yuan didn't return home for three days, and went out like this, I don't know what it must be arranged into!It's not that I won't go back, it's just that I feel uncomfortable and postpone it for a few days.Farmers, how can there be such a big rule, isn't it just that you tolerate me and I tolerate you in a family?

Qiao Yuan went on to say: "My husband and my mother-in-law are so kind to me. I feel very sorry. I accidentally heard my husband say that he had eaten this kind of cake at the border. He had nothing to do, so he thought about making it. It was just for the family. People eat, and later..."

Qiao Yuan glanced at Grandma Jiang who was in the crowd, and Grandma Jiang immediately stood up and said: "I will testify that I came to the door after smelling it at home. The Yu family refused to ask for money at that time, but we If you buy a lot, you can’t take advantage of others, right.”

There was that quick-mouthed joke: "Ma'am, you have a really good nose!"

Grandma Jiang had a good temper and was not annoyed at all. She laughed and scolded: "You can't sit still after smelling that!"

The crowd burst into laughter.

Qiao Yuan stood up and cupped his hands at the right time and said, "A farce has delayed everyone's time today. If you come to buy cakes today, buy two and get one free."

Mrs. Zhang immediately cheered and said: "Then I will have to buy more later! Last time I gave it to my third sister who just gave birth. She liked it very much. I will buy some more for her. My eldest treasure also likes it. "

The topic suddenly turned to hair cakes, and Xu Xiuhua was completely ignored.She felt that she didn't have the upper hand at the moment, so she looked around, looking for an opportunity to sneak away.

The nemesis, Aunt Wu, was unwilling to let her go, so she immediately sighed and said, "Oh, if Brother Qiao and Second Sister-in-law Qiao were still alive, Brother Yuan wouldn't be able to suffer like this! I remember that Second Brother Qiao would work at the pier, and Second Sister-in-law Qiao If you do a good job in needlework, you can also make clothes for the people in our village, and the two of you can earn money together, so life is going well!"

It's been too long since Aunt Wu didn't mention it, everyone almost forgot about it, even the younger ones didn't know about it at all.Everyone knew that after Qiao Yuan's parents died, the property was taken by Uncle Qiao Yuan's family!It's really heartless to occupy someone else's family property and torment his only brother like this!

There were those who just couldn't understand Xu Xiuhua's actions because of their simplicity, and those who were jealous of Xu Xiuhua's gain of eight taels of silver and Qiao Yuan's parents' property for nothing, condemned and criticized Xu Xiuhua one after another.Xu Xiuhua felt guilty and short of breath, feeling that she couldn't take it anymore, she got up and ran away in despair.
