Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 5283 Making Choices
Wiping her tears, Shengnan's wife said aggrievedly: "Shengnan, don't blame your mother. My mother was also raised by my parents. Your uncle's family is my natal family. They have a hard life, and I feel sad..."

"Mother, you feel sad, so you shouldn't use things from my husband's family to subsidize my uncle's family!" Xiang Shengnan was heartbroken, "Since you were young, you went back to your uncle's house to visit relatives, and you hid them in the basket. Yes, we won't talk about it,"

"When you go to your uncle's house for dinner, you either take your brother or me, never the two of you together."

"Why? You're afraid that if we eat too much together, my aunt and the others will be distressed and unhappy."

"Our Xiang family's life is also tight. Duo'er is married, and you feel that our family's life is better and prosperous, so you have to supplement your uncle's family. Aren't you swollen face to pretend to be fat! They have no face over there!"

Sheng Nan's wife cried and rubbed against Yang Huazhong, and said in a low voice: "My father-in-law, I'm sorry, this has nothing to do with Sheng Nan, I was confused, I apologize to you..."

Yang Huazhong waved his hands with a cold face: "Whether this matter has anything to do with Shengnan or not, we know it in our hearts, so you don't need to say it."

Mrs. Sheng wanted to make amends, but the cattle dealer came to her and Yang Huazhong, and interrupted her: "Don't say anything, if you really admit your mistake, you should be honest, how many chickens did you send back to your natal family?" ?”

Sheng Nanniang faltered: "No, not much..."

The cattle dealer turned his head and shouted at Xiang's father who was huddled in the mouth of the stove: "If she doesn't say it, you say it!"

Father Xiang opened his mouth, but when he met Shangsheng's fierce gaze, he shut up again.

The cattle dealer snorted coldly: "Jin Nan is gone, you only have Sheng Nan as a son, if you still want someone to take care of you, you'd better be honest!"

Xiang's father trembled, and immediately raised his hands and said: "I said, I said, that woman sent five live chickens to her natal family one after another, and also sent a piece of green satin material to make clothes for her natal brother. , a bolt of lotus root color cloth for her natal sister-in-law."

"As for whether the money was stuffed, I don't know, you have to question her about this!"

When Mrs. Sheng heard this, she jumped up like a cat that has stepped on its tail: "What are you talking about, it's nothing!"

"Those two pieces of cloth are Duo'er's dowry, and they were under the box. You found them all?" Xiang Shengnan was shocked.

Sheng Nan waved her hands again and again, "Sheng Nan don't listen to your father, he is talking nonsense..."

"I'm not talking nonsense. I have seen with my own eyes that you folded and hid the cloth in the basket. The basket couldn't fit, and a piece of it was smashed out. You wrapped it in your coat again and went out in a panic..."

Mrs. Sheng rushed over to gag Father Xiang, but Father Xiang was so frightened that he ran to hide behind the cattle dealer, shouting: "Brother, save me..."

The cattle dealer stepped forward, and Mrs. Sheng bumped into his iron-like chest.

The man and woman who won the pain had stars in their eyes, and the world was spinning.

"If you still manage this place, go back to your mother's house quickly, and bring back the five chickens and two pieces of cloth!" The cattle dealer pointed at Mrs. Sheng's nose and snapped.

Mrs. Sheng looked helpless, and spread her hands: "Brother, you are trying to embarrass me to death. I think they ate the chicken and dragged it to the toilet. How can I take it?"

"If you eat it, convert it into money and bring it back, otherwise, don't go back to this house!" The cattle dealer said, with a stern face and no room for negotiation.

Sheng Nanniang cried and wiped her tears, and sat down on the ground.

Yang Huazhong frowned heavily, "Five chickens are fine, but two bolts of cloth have to be brought back anyway, that is our dowry to Duo'er, there can be no mistakes!"

In Yang Huazhong's view, two bolts of cloth are actually not worth much money, but this has a different meaning, it is a dowry.

Therefore, the Yang family must show an attitude, otherwise, this time, Mrs. Sheng stole the cloth and was lucky to be spared. Next time, she might put her mind on Duo'er's jewelry, and she must not condone it.

The cattle dealer also understood what Yang Huazhong meant, and his face became more and more ugly. He pointed to Mrs. Sheng's nose and said word by word: "Two pieces of cloth can't be less than an inch. If there is an inch less, I will make the decision and let my brother divorce you!"

After saying this, the cattle dealer patted Yang Huazhong on the shoulder, and the two left together.

Xiang's father weighed it up, "Brother, father-in-law, wait for me!" He also followed behind as if fleeing for his life.

Only Mrs. Sheng and Mrs. Xiang Sheng were left in the kitchen.

Shengnan's wife was crying with snot and tears, and said to Xiang Shengnan during this period: "Let me take back the water that was poured out of the things I sent out. Isn't this intentional to make me lose face? Woooooo... What's the point of my life..."

Xiang Shengnan looked at his mother indifferently: "Your face is more important than your life, and my face is the sole of your shoe, right?"

"Hurry up and get it back, anyway, I still have an explanation with my father-in-law's house, otherwise, you can just pretend that I don't have this son!"

Xiang Shengnan left without looking back, leaving only Mrs. Sheng lying on the ground crying, beating, spitting, and saying some words of looking for death and life.

However, shouting broke her throat, except for a few neighbors in twos and threes who came to watch the fun, but none of the people she was looking forward to appearing appeared.

……

Naturally, Xiang Shengnan told Xiaoduo the whole matter.

Xiaoduo was dumbfounded.

Immediately put on his shoes and got out of bed, opened the cage, searched, and found that there were missing... four pieces of cloth.

"Shengnan, your father didn't look carefully, there are four pieces of cloth missing in total, and two pieces were given to me by my sister, one is the colorful cotton silk for the summer, and the other is the woolen cloth she brought back a while ago. I originally planned to save the woolen cloth to make a underwear for you and Uncle when I am full moon, I heard it is very warm, so I am gone now."

Xiaoduo sneered, put down these words and went back to bed, pulled the quilt over her legs.

Looking at Xiang Shengnan with cold eyes: "If the cloth can't be found, we won't have to live this day."

Hearing Xiaoduo's words, Xiang Shengnan's expression changed immediately.

He remembered the scene when Sister Qing'er brought the woolen cloth back last time, he helped Xiaoduo put it in the cage with his own hands, because at that time Xiaoduo had a big belly and it was inconvenient to move it.

Xiang Shengnan came to the cage, leaned over and searched carefully, but there was really no one.

"I'm furious!"

He turned around and ran into the main room, and told the cattle dealer and Father Xiang about it again.

The cattle dealer was so angry that he dropped a teacup.

"Sheng Nan, you go to the old house again and tell your mother that you want her to go back to her mother's house right now and bring back those cloths, otherwise don't go back to this house!" said the cattle dealer.

Xiang Shengnan's eyes were flushed with anxiety, "She will most likely try to evade in every possible way, even if she does go back, then my two uncles and aunts will immediately brainwash her again after a few words, and someone must go with her! "
