Chapter 111 He never knew his mother was so troublesome
About half an hour later, the two came back.
Because it was still daylight, the whole family was making mosquito coils in the yard.
Qiao Ye was also sitting in the yard at this time.
Seeing the two people come in, Boss Lu and the others asked more anxiously than her: "How is the questioning going?"
After Lu Lao Si sat down, he said, "The village chief said he didn't know the price either. We have to go to the county government office to ask tomorrow."
"Wulang said that he happened to be going to deliver mosquito coils and candles to the county magistrate tomorrow, and he would go with the village chief."
"The wasteland at the entrance of the village is full of small rocks. The village chief can sell it to us for five taels of silver."
This is the lowest price the village chief has given by using his power.
"We want to buy a few acres, and we can go directly to the county town to transfer the ownership tomorrow."
He paused and said, "The homestead at the foot of the barren mountain will also be sold to us at this price."
"After all, no one has cultivated land there, so it's just going to be left there."
The wasteland at the entrance of the village is about twenty acres in size, and the one at the foot of the mountain is about the same size.
Qiao Ye felt that the price was indeed fair, even cheap.
"Okay, then I'll buy them all."
It would only cost ten taels of silver to buy everything.
No one in the Lu family had any objection to this proposal.
Then they continued to work.
In the county town, in a five-room house.
After Lu Qingrong brought the old lady and others home, he arranged a room for the old lady and the two girls.
The two nephews had a separate room.
The old lady was a little tired, so she took a rest and took a nap first.
After getting up, I started to make some trouble.
She said to Liu Ya, "Go and ask Yu to come and serve me."
"I heard that the daughters-in-law of wealthy families have to help their mothers-in-law get up and dress."
In the stories told by Qiao Ye, she had heard about the behavior of many mothers-in-law from wealthy families.
Liu Ya didn't like Aunt Wu, so she immediately said, "Okay, Grandma."
Then he happily ran to the front hall to call people.
At this time, Yu Wanzhi and her family had just had a good rest.
They were sitting in the front hall, discussing what to do with the old lady and the others.
Lu Qingrong meant that if the old lady was overly critical, they should be patient.
He has to endure it too.
It is imperative to coax the old lady into coming up with the recipe in these few days.
In fact, even if he didn't remind them, Yu Wanzhi, her mother and her two sons had decided that they had to put up with the old woman's death.
After all, the recipe is the most important, so it doesn’t matter if you get a little upset.
What's more, if that damn girl could sow discord and coax the old lady, they could do the same.
So they all agreed, saying that they wanted to respect the old lady and not make things difficult for Lu Qingrong.
As soon as they finished talking, Liu Ya came to call for help.
When Yu Wanzhi heard that the old woman wanted her to be served, she felt very aggrieved, but she had no choice but to get up and go over.
Then, while the old lady was scolding me, I helped her dress herself and comb her hair.
She accidentally combed her hair too hard and the old lady slapped her on the back of her hand.
The old lady was used to it and was quite energetic, and she did it on purpose, so both of Yu Wanzhi's hands were hit red.
She reminded the old lady tactfully.
But the old lady not only did not stop, she also threw a tantrum and said that she deliberately did not serve her well, that she was unfilial, and that she would go out and tell the neighbors.
Yu Wanzhi could only be angry but not say anything.
After the service was over, Yu Wanzhi helped the old lady to the front hall.
Serve the old lady water.
If you are cold, you will be scolded; if you are hot, you will be scolded...
It was finally time for dinner.
The old lady then asked Yu Wanzhi and Lu Zhoulan to cook.
Of course Yu Wanzhi knows how to cook. After all, as a girl, she can't escape working at home.
However, after marrying into the Zhou family, she had a dedicated cook.
After marrying Lu Qingrong, she had a cook at first, but later she fired the cook in order to let her mother take over.
As a result, she hasn't cooked for a long time and hasn't done any housework for several years.
Now that the old lady came to live with her, she didn't dare let her mother come over again.
I could only take my daughter to the kitchen to cook with frustration.
Lu Zhoulan has always been raised as a spoiled young lady, how could she be capable of this?
So I can't help much.
After Yu Wanzhi hurriedly prepared the meal and brought it to the table.
When the old lady saw it, she immediately frowned and started scolding, saying what kind of food is this, it’s not even as good as pig food, etc.
Lu Qingrong tried to persuade her, but was scolded by the old lady instead, who said that he didn't know how to teach his daughter-in-law.
After she finished scolding, she tasted the food and couldn't help but scold again.
It is said that the dishes cooked by Yu Wanzhi are so bad that even pigs and dogs would dislike them.
He also compared Yu Wanzhi and Qiao Ye, praising Qiao Ye's cooking skills to the sky and comparing Yu Wanzhi to the toilet.
Yu Wanzhi was so angry that she almost died, but she didn't dare to say anything back.
After the old lady finished scolding, she suddenly remembered what Qiao Ye said.
The mother-in-law of a wealthy family would always have her daughter-in-law stand by and serve her when they were having dinner. This is called "serving the dishes".
So he asked Yu Wanzhi to stand beside him and serve her the food.
She was used to a hard life and couldn't stand waste. Even though the food tasted bad, she could still force herself to eat some.
Yu Wanzhi wanted to go up and scratch the old lady a few times.
The damn old woman is just a country lady, but she is quite generous, yet they actually let her serve the food.
But no matter whether it was out of filial piety or to please Fangzi, she had to hold back and stand up to serve the food.
While picking up food for the old lady, I was being scolded and looked down upon by her.
After finally waiting for the old lady to finish her meal with disdain, she sat down, feeling tired and unhappy, and had no appetite to eat anymore.
Especially after taking a few bites of the food, I found it a bit difficult to swallow, so I stopped eating.
When the old lady saw it, she scolded her for making it taste bad on purpose.
So if you don’t eat it yourself, do you want to eat it secretly?
He even stared at her and insisted that she and her two children eat all the food on the table.
Lu Qingrong felt sorry for the old lady and tried to persuade her, but it was useless and he was scolded instead.
The last meal made Lu Qingrong and his family exhausted.
Wait for them to force themselves to swallow all the food.
The old lady took out the cakes she had brought and ate them with her grandchildren.
Not a penny was given to their family, including her once beloved little son.
This made Lu Qingrong and the other three feel very upset.
I feel that the old lady must have been instigated by that dead girl to do this.
Otherwise, how could he know things like how to serve the food?
After dinner, the old lady took her grandchildren out for a walk to help digest the food.
Chatting with a few old ladies outside who I had dealt with before.
Come back when it's almost dark.
Before Yu Wanzhi had a good rest, she was called to help the old lady wash her face and feet.
Yu Wanzhi endured being served and having to wring out a handkerchief to wash her face.
But the old lady actually asked her to wash her feet.
Yu Wanzhi really wanted to collapse.
She couldn't help but said, "Mother, please let Liuya help you wash. I'm afraid I can't serve you well."
The old lady's face darkened.
He said directly to Liu Ya: "Go and call your fifth uncle to come and send me back to the village now."
"I can't control such an unfilial daughter-in-law."
"Let's talk to the neighbors. My daughter-in-law bullied me and chased me away. That's why I have to go back to the village."
Yu Wanzhi: “…” This damn old woman actually turned the tables.
If I returned to the village so late and made a lot of noise, and told my neighbors like that.
Does she still want her reputation here?
The damn old woman threatened her on purpose.
She kept repeating "prescription" and "prescription" in her heart.
After reciting it countless times, she finally said, "Wash, Mom, I'll help you wash it."
After washing the old lady's feet, she deliberately stepped on the water and got her face covered with the foot washing water.
She couldn't hold it in any longer, so she stood up and ran to the door and started retching.
It was so disgusting that she could hardly stand it.
When Lu Qingrong heard the noise, he rushed over immediately, comforted her, and then went to appease the old lady.
But the old lady kicked over the foot basin, spilling the water all over him.
Then he was also scolded, saying that he couldn't even teach his wife well.
Lu Qingrong could only endure the old lady's scolding and personally took the handkerchief to wipe the old lady's feet.
He never knew that his mother was so troublesome.
Who did you learn this from?
If this goes on, whether they can get the prescription or not, the couple will probably go crazy.
Especially his wife, with her frail body, how could she withstand such torture from her mother.
After washing her feet, the old lady looked at Yu Wanzhi with red eyes, obviously she had been crying with her head down.
I was so angry, "Can you shut up, you unlucky guy?"
"You're always leaking cat urine. You're so unlucky. Are you deliberately trying to make it difficult for my son to pass the imperial examination?"
None of her daughters-in-law are like this. They cry at the slightest provocation. It's so unlucky.
It's annoying to look at.
Yu Wanzhi did it on purpose. She originally wanted to cry on purpose to make the old lady tired of her and let her leave.
So she continued to cry, "Mom, I didn't, I didn't mean it."
The old lady was so upset that she wanted to hit someone.
But thinking about what Wulang's wife taught me before I left, the more I looked at it, the more I felt that this was done on purpose by the vixen.
She took a deep breath and yelled, "Cry your ass off, come and help me put on my socks and help me sleep."
"You still have to be scolded by your mother-in-law. How can you be a daughter-in-law?"
Although she was cruel to her other daughters-in-law, she never treated them like this.
I really don't like Yu Wanzhi.
And as Wulang's wife said, they brought her to the county town for their filial piety.
If she didn't make trouble, she would be letting down the family of four.
What's more, this vixen ruined her reputation everywhere, implying that she was an evil mother-in-law.
Wulang's wife was right. Of course she couldn't take the blame for this.
This will fulfill the other person's wish, to be a wicked mother-in-law.
Of course, it was also related to the fact that she really disliked Yu Wanzhi.
Humph, the more the other party wants to hide, the more she will make trouble.
