Chapter 287: Precepts and deeds
Chapter 287 Precepts and deeds
Liu Yun pouted and nodded. She didn't want to meddle in this business. If it wasn't for the sake of her daughter and son-in-law, she wouldn't even come to the banquet.
It is said that it is a family banquet of a wealthy family, but in fact it is here to suffer. Even if it is delicacies from mountains and seas, it is not as comfortable as eating a whole meal at home.
But after calming down and thinking about it, the reason why the old people of the Lin family pointed at their daughters was just to take the opportunity to find some trouble, so that the son-in-law would be dissatisfied with their daughter, so that they could let some of their own people in. A common trick in the house.
If you haven’t eaten pork, you’ve seen pigs run away. Even if these old women brought out countless crimes for their mother and daughter today, she was determined not to talk to this group of people.
Seeing that the aunts didn't care anymore, Mrs. Zhou also wanted to maintain this seemingly peaceful scene, silently staring at Lin Sanniang who was sitting next to the third aunt, and decided to swallow this breath first, and then Immediately ordered the maids to start serving dishes.
The courtyard began to get busy, and the busy figures of the maids kept shuttling between the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard.
In the main hall, the voices of pushing cups and changing cups sounded continuously, and the words were full of flattery and compliments. While listening silently, Lin Jinxiao picked up food for the three treasures of the great treasure, but he was thinking about the person in the inner courtyard who had been gifted by him. Liao and Lishu's wife.
Her carefree temperament is not a master who can swallow her anger, and today she has just moved from the village to the city, and it is the first time she is facing such an occasion, so she may not be able to handle it.
It doesn't matter if you offend the elders of the Lin family, he doesn't care, he is afraid that she will be bullied.
While thinking about it, the second uncle Lin Bo squinted his eyes and looked at him with a half-smile, and suddenly said earnestly:
"Dalang, you rejected the two maids that your clan uncle sent to you. That's not okay. Nanzhi girl is now an official wife after all. How can there be no servant girl by her side? If you don't like These maidservants are clumsy, then listen to your third uncle and take two concubines, so that they can take care of the children for you and your wife."
Seeing that Lin Bo brought up the matter again, the other two elders were very excited, but Lin Tingzhen looked lonely.
The two maids who were sent were carefully selected by myself, but the second uncle called them clumsy people, which is really annoying.
Dabao Lin Ruiwen noticed that his mother was not very friendly to his father recently. At this time, when he heard the old man in the clan trying to take a concubine for his father, his heart was full of anger, and his small eyes rolled and looked straight at Several elders said in a cold tone: "Grandpa Zeng, my father does not take concubines."
"Well, we don't need others to take care of us, we just need A Niang to take care of us."
Sambo Lin Ruichong also agreed angrily.
He hates the elders of the Lin family the most. They have ignored their family for so many years, but now they start to interfere in Father's family affairs. They are not at all as cute as those old grandpas in the village.
"Ouch, how do you two little guys know this."
Second uncle Lin Bo reprimanded lightly, but Lin Jinxiao couldn't help but said:
"Although the child's words are unintentional, they are not unreasonable. All these years, my wife has taken care of a few little treasures. They recognize their children. I am also a newcomer now. I am busy with work and have no intention of other things. I appreciate the kindness of the uncles. Don't mention the matter of taking concubines, if the lady really can't handle it, it won't be too late to go to the dental shop and buy two maids."
The three elders gradually realized that this grandnephew was not as easy-talking as his father, and that he had gained a reputation as a foolish filial piety in the county today. It is obviously inappropriate to forcefully arrange this matter by pretending to be an elder.
If the granddaughter-in-law is not able to play tricks, it will make people feel that the Lin clan is ganging up to bully a weak woman.
Lin Tingzhen didn't like to meddle in other people's family affairs. It was kind of him to send two maids today, and he knew that his nephew refused to come back.
I didn't want the elders to keep on holding on to this matter, so Lin Tingzhen immediately said nervously:
"Since Da Lang has his own plans, uncles, don't force them any more. It's all their own business, let them figure it out by themselves."
Seeing that the patriarch had spoken, the elders could not say any more, so they nodded slightly and continued to pick up vegetables and drink.
In the inner courtyard, Mrs. Zhou eagerly served food for Chu Nanzhi, mother and daughter. Seeing that her niece didn't seem to have a great appetite, she already guessed that she must have listened to the conversation in the room just now.
I also blame my daughter for being a reckless person. If she doesn't come in and speak out, everyone can still act as if nothing happened. Right now, it's a dilemma.
After thinking about it, she had to focus on the two little guys.
With a smile, she carefully picked out two pieces of fish and put them into the bowls of the little ones, and said with concern:
"I saw that the little treasures in my niece and daughter-in-law's family were much thinner than children of the same age. From now on, Dalang was busy with work, and my niece and daughter-in-law would go out to investigate cases for others from time to time. If they were not free, they would take the little treasures with them." Come to my aunt's house, and my aunt will help you take care of them and cook more delicious food for them."
"There are many children in the family, and the conditions were not good before. It is inevitable that the nutrition will not keep up. It will be fine to take care of it slowly in the future."
Mentioning this matter is also a heart problem for Chu Nanzhi.
In the past, the original owner took care of the little ones, and she didn't care about the children's life or death.
Compared with the situation when I first saw the quadruplets, in fact, the four of them are much better now.
Hearing the conversation between the two, the third uncle, Mrs. Chen, sized up Mrs. Zhou with a sullen face, and took the words angrily:
"Raising children is not only about eating well, but also precepts and deeds are extremely important. You see, your second mother is not as well-behaved and sensible as the third mother. She is domineering all day long. She doesn't look like a lady of everyone. Don't marry and be disrespectful in the future. Only when the parents-in-law make a joke will you know how to repent."
A pun in one sentence, the expression of everyone on the table is very complicated.
Chu Nanzhi just smiled coldly, and it was hard to tell that the old woman's accusation against her sister-in-law was false, and that it was true that she complained that she disrespected her niece.
Since she wanted to teach by precept and example, I had no choice but to obey her.
Chu Nanzhi pretended not to pay attention to Da Chen's words, and put a pigeon egg into a bowl for Er Bao and Si Bao, and said casually:
"Mother has a lot of insight in investigating cases and redressing people's grievances these days. In fact, as long as people are alive, they only need to abide by the law and not harm others. It is enough to live frankly. As for the things in the storybook, they are always sacrificing the ego to take care of the overall situation. Let’s just listen to my virtuous wife, you are all my mother’s darling, you don’t care about what you will do in the future, you are a lady, your mother doesn’t care, the important thing is to live happily.”
Erbao Lin Ruixi heard the cleverness and energy surged upwards, nodded again and again and said: "Aniang, I only need to live like you from now on, not bullying others but not afraid of others."
Sibao Lin Ruijia felt that her sister's summary was very incisive, and happily echoed: "I want to live like my mother."
Lin Jinhui's blood boiled even more, her sister-in-law's words simply spoke out her own heart, instead of trying to maintain the relationship with the whole big family like her mother, and in the end, it was not flattering, she might as well pursue frankness like her sister-in-law swing life.
As if she had found a confidant, she looked at Chu Nanzhi happily, and complimented Chu Nanzhi with a sweet smile: "What a magnanimous one, sister-in-law is indeed my brother Jinxiao's wife, she has extraordinary insights."
But these words completely annoyed a few old ladies who were old-fashioned, and the third uncle, Mrs. Chen, immediately turned black.
