The Cute Peasant Wife: Mian Niang - C270 awakening
“Isn’t there a banner?” Song Zhien pointed to the “Little Song Tofu” sign, and was extremely unconvinced. Why can’t I sell it? ”
Mian Niang asked unhurriedly: “Did you shout earlier to sell tofu?”
Song Zhien was speechless, and quickly tried to salvage the situation: “It’s not my fault, I didn’t even need to shout, everyone has already come out.”
“Then I’ll listen to what you have to say now.” Mian Niang looked at him with a smile.
Song Zhien held it in for a long time and did not shout out loud. A boy of his age was precisely at the time where he wanted to gain the most face, and his heart was often filled with all sorts of so-called “embarrassment”.
“Look, you can’t even shout out loud, in our village, of course you don’t need to shout, the neighbors all know that our family will be selling tofu today, and the hairy donkey cart will be walking in that circle, but it’s different after we leave the village, and once we get there, if you don’t shout, how would they know that you are here to sell tofu?” In such a cold day, it’s impossible for anyone to not stay in the house and wait for you outside, right? ”
Song Zhien was speechless.
Mian Niang laughed and slurped his hair, she placed the straw mattress on the carriage and prepared to leave. Just as she was about to leave, she heard a clear and loud shout for business.
“It’s time to sell tofu!”
Turning his head to look, Song Zhien was looking at her with a stubborn face. His face was full of color: “See, I can shout too, I am not someone who does not know how to shout. Sis A, if you can do something, I can do it too.”
Mian Niang indeed did not expect him to shout out loud, she laughed and shook her head, then immediately admitted her mistake: “I underestimated you, my family’s little brother is someone who can truly shout out loud, not just for fun.”
“Then can I go?”
“Still not.” Mian Niang walked over and said to his brother in an extremely serious tone: “You don’t need to appear in public and deal with those aunties? The school will start in a few days, just stay at home and study. This work, your Sis A will do. ”
Mian Niang put on the cotton hat and covered up the bandages on her forehead tightly. Seeing that Song Zhien was still standing there, she patted him on the shoulder and said: “Hurry and eat your meal, don’t forget to burn the brick bed later.”
Song Zhien resisted once again, but it was only to be mercilessly suppressed by Sis A. He could only watch as Mian Niang drove the carriage out.
Madame Song Li walked out of the bean curd, and when she saw her youngest son’s unconvinced expression, she couldn’t help but find it funny.
“Your Sis A is right, this tofu seller has a lot of knowledge, he’s not any less knowledgeable than you. Furthermore, these people from the eight villages all know your Sis A, and a few know you. “They might treat you as a fake and aren’t willing to buy your tofu.”
“I only wanted to help Sis A. Her injuries have not yet healed.”
Your Sis A knows that you already have this kind of heart. Your Sis A and your mother’s hearts are already very ironclad, even if you have to work hard, it’s still worth it. As for the rest, don’t think about it.
“Reading, studying, you only know how to make me read. So much work in my house was done by the Sis A, Mother, do you know how tiring it is to pick three large vats of water at once?”
His son suddenly flew into a rage, and Madame Song fell silent.
“You don’t know, I didn’t know before, but I know now, after picking up three large vats of water, my legs have started to turn, and I wish that this leg was not mine anymore. I have been working like this for a few days, how come I am free today?”
Song Zhien had always thought that Sis A was hard work. However, when he saw that Sis A seemed to have endless work to do every day and had personally experienced it, he realized that it was far more than hard work. Sis A had already been here for a few months, but he did not know how he had been able to endure it.
Madame Song Li was rendered speechless by her son’s words. She stood there, but her gaze fell on the bucket and the carrying pole outside the room.
Three large vats of water would be going back and forth from the well dozens of times a day. Even the men from other houses would not work like this.
Previously, she only thought that Mian Niang should be divided for doing these things, but who asked her to harm her family like this? At that time, when she saw Mian Niang being bullied, she actually felt that she deserved it.
This was what Mian Niang should have done to make up for her mistakes after harming her family like this.
Only now did she begin to regret her obstinate, cold-blooded, and harsh attitude back then.
She didn’t even dare to think back to how she had endured Mian Niang’s suffering without being moved at all. She had even vented all of her resentment and indignation onto Mian Niang.
She couldn’t find the Mei Family to settle her debts, she couldn’t go and fight with the Prince Rong to the death, and she couldn’t even go and ask Gu Xin for an explanation. She only knew how to sit at home and grind her daughter every day.
The younger son’s words shamed her.
He let go of the stick and went back to his room, leaning on his walking stick.
He sat down on the brick bed and let the cane hang on the ground.
Song Zhien did not know that his words had made his mother feel guilty. He only saw that his mother seemed to be crying and he immediately regretted it. He immediately went back to his house to apologize to Madame Song.
“Mother, don’t cry. I didn’t do it on purpose. I didn’t want to talk back on purpose, and it’s not like I don’t want to study. Actually, I really like reading.”
“I don’t blame you. I know you are a sensible child.” Madame Song Li looked at his youngest son with a sorrowful and guilty expression.
The one who was not sensible was never her two children. The one who was not sensible was her. She had always been the one who was unreasonable and unreasonable.
That was why his daughter had suffered so much.
bean curd was dark and humid. She could not believe how hard she could have her daughter live there for the whole winter.
His eldest son had to emphasize this every time he sent a letter, and not blame Mian Niang.
She did not take it to heart, as she felt that her eldest son had only seen Mian Niang being abandoned, and did not know that there were other reasons behind it.
But now that he thought about it carefully, he felt that A Yun’s parents were right.
His daughter was his. If he were to meet with such a scum in this world, if he did not protect his own daughter, other people would not even be able to protect him.
As parents, they didn’t have the ability. If something happened, not only would they not be able to support their daughter, they would only blame their child.
Madame Song Li slowly closed her eyes and tried to think about it. If Mian Niang had done something like dying to show her sincerity when she was initially entangled by Gu Xin, she would have suddenly opened his eyes and shed tears once again.
As their father and mother, how could they have peace in their hearts if Mian Niang had done such a decisive thing?
But just like what Mian Niang said, what if she let the family know about this?
Song Zhixiao would definitely go find Gu Ba and settle the score without a word.
When it came to Gu Xin, they would only talk about how the young master of the Gu family was fickle, but when it came to Mian Niang, she would talk about how water was like water, water was water was flowers, and she was restless.
The whole family was scolded together by their neighbors’ spines.
At that time, no matter who it was, they wouldn’t be able to think of a better way to deal with it.
Song Zhien was frightened. He tugged at his mother’s hand and asked, “Mother, what’s wrong?”
Madame Song Li shook her head: “Mother is wrong, hyposome, I was really wrong.”
Song Li cried silently as Song Zhien comforted her by holding her mother’s hand.
The Duke of Zhenbei had been bedridden for a long time, and the Gu family was already fully prepared.
As a result, Senior Marquis’s death was not enough to make people laugh.
The funeral was arranged in a neat and orderly manner.
However, Senior Marquis Gu had an explanation before he died, so everything should be simple.
I will not allow my children to do anything they want.
However, with his grade, even if he really wanted to make things simple, it would still be troublesome.
May the Department of Yin and Yang of the Qing-Yun Sect choose a day, a 7, 7, 49 days, three days after the release of the obituary. In these forty-nine days, we will have one hundred and eight monks pay their respects to the souls in the hall.
Senior Marquis Gu was an important official of the imperial court, and an endless stream of people came to pay their respects.
Even the emperor had set aside silver and sent his eunuchs to pay their respects.
The children’s women were offering incense before the spirit.
Gu Heng’s will to attack had already come down, which could be considered to be what the Senior Marquis wanted. Even if the other people in the manor didn’t want to accept this, they had no way to reverse the situation.
He could only helplessly watch as this dandy, who had once wandered the world without any proper work, became the head of the family, and Gu Xin was also bullied by his two uncles.
didn’t fight nor fight for it at the moment, and only calmly helped his brother manage his grandfather’s funeral. When the matter came up, Gu Zhui actually listened to Gu Xin’s decision.
The Gu family’s second master silently resented his son’s failure to live up to his expectations, but there was nothing he could do.
Kneeling in front of his father’s spirit, he silently criticized himself for his grievances.
Jiang Ting changed his appearance in the middle of the crowd, changed his appearance, and closed the door with the name scroll prepared by the Emperor.
The name written on the card was only a rank 1 or 9 civil servant. In the capital, it did not attract anyone’s attention to begin with, but now that they had come to pay their respects, the Gu family could not possibly chase them out just because of their low rank.
Gu Xin and Gu Xing stood at the gate and welcomed them. They were very polite when they saw the level nine official’s name card.
Gu Yue had an impression of people, and politely addressed them as “Master Wen”.
In order to prevent himself from revealing the truth, Jiang Ting did not say much. He called out to Young Marquis Gu and took the opportunity to size up the two Gu brothers.
Senior Marquis Gu had already discovered that something was amiss since Gu Xing had returned to the capital. His illness had already dragged on for a few months, and it was all thanks to Old Doctor Hua’s brilliant medical skills. He did his best to buy time for his grandson to fight the King Rong.
However, in the end, it still wasn’t enough.
Gu Yan had the deepest feelings for him. At this moment, his face was extremely distraught. Although he had mustered up his courage, it was still a lot worse than before he had returned to the capital.
Although Gu Xing was a little disappointed that his grandfather had never chosen him, it was still within his expectations. He did not feel that it was a big loss, but it was just that after his grandfather passed away, he would still inevitably feel sad.
Jiang Ting slightly narrowed his eyes. The Gu brothers were not as incompatible as the rumors had said, and he had already known about this a long time ago.
He turned around and walked back into the courtyard, but someone suddenly called out to him.
“Master Wen!”
Jiang Ting heard the familiar voice, turned to look at Gu Xin, secretly defending himself.
