my grandmother

Chapter 114
Li Xiaonan arrived home half an hour earlier than Eldest Sister, and sat in the kitchen helping Sister Mei cook the pot.

"Is Li Xiucai at home?"

An inquiry came from outside the courtyard door.

"Brother hasn't come back yet, what's the matter?" Li Xiaonan answered and hurried out.

At the door is a woman about 50 years old. The outermost bijia is made of silk, which looks quite reserved.

Seeing Li Xiaonan, the mother-in-law slightly bent her knees, "It's Si Niangzi, please greet Si Niangzi."

"You are?" Li Xiaonan hurriedly bowed her knees to return the salute.

"My surname is Xiao, and I'm our wife's companion. Our wife is Mrs. Wu from the Hong family." Mrs. Xiao smiled politely.

"It's Nanny Xiao, come in and talk." Li Xiaonan hurriedly smiled enthusiastically.

"I won't go in, is the lady back yet?"

"Not yet, Eldest Sister will be back in half an hour. Do you have something to do with Eldest Sister? Your wife? My Third Sister?" Li Xiaonan was warm and polite.

"It's our wife who is looking for your eldest lady. Send me over to have a look first, then I'll come back in half an hour. When the eldest lady comes back, our wife wants to talk to the eldest lady. I'm sorry, fourth lady." Mrs. Xiao said politely. alienated.

"Okay, Mammy, you've worked hard." Li Xiaonan remained enthusiastic.

Seeing Mrs. Xiao walking out of the alley unhurriedly, Li Xiaonan closed the courtyard door and went back to the kitchen.

Sister Mei kept stretching her neck to look at the gate of the courtyard, facing Li Xiaonan and asked: "The Hong family? Are you okay?"

"It is said that their wives are coming to talk to Eldest Sister. Their wife is Third Sister's mother-in-law. It should be fine." Li Xiaonan's heart began to hang up.

Li Jinzhu and Li Yuzhu had just arrived home when Mrs. Xiao came again. When she heard that she was back, she hurried back to invite her wife.

The three sisters of the Li family and the four sisters of Mei simply ate in the kitchen in a hurry, boiled the water to heat the cups and pots, wiped the tables and chairs, and took the tea, and Mrs. Wu arrived.

Li Jinzhu and Li Yuzhu gave way to Mrs. Wu, while Li Xiaonan was busy making and pouring tea.

This is Third Sister's mother-in-law, she can't be too enthusiastic or respectful!
Mrs. Wu looked reserved and indifferent, and sat down upright. From the loom in the middle of the main room, she saw the spinning wheel, and then turned her head to look at the several baskets of rice piled up in the east chamber, the bacon hanging on the beams and the high and low baskets.

Following Mrs. Wu's gaze, Li Jinzhu looked around her home, and her heart arose bit by bit.

No matter how you say it, Yinzhu's marriage is very high-spirited, and since Yinzhu married, she has been hanging on her heart.

The Mrs. Wu in front of her was dressed in silk, she looked more like an official wife than an official wife.

Mrs. Wu's grandfather was an official, and Mrs. Wu came from an authentic official family with a scholarly family. Compared with her mother-in-law, Yinzhu is far behind.

"Mr. Xiucai hasn't come back yet." Mrs. Wu looked around and asked calmly.

"It will take him an hour or two to come back. It is said that the scenery in spring is good and there will be a lot of literature. He hasn't had dinner at home for a while." Li Jinzhu hurriedly laughed.

"Well, men are different from women. They need to go outside more to practice." Mrs. Wu said slowly, looked down at the cup of tea in front of her, pushed it out, looked at Li Jinzhu and said, "Is the business going well recently?" ?”

"Very good, I'm planning to deliver preserved eggs to several nearby towns." Li Jinzhu looked at the teacup being pushed away, and hurriedly looked away to Mrs. Wu.

"That's good. You put the loom here, and you still have room to weave?" Mrs. Wu glanced at Li Yuzhu, who was humming spinning.

"It's just that I don't have much time. Yinzhu didn't make you angry, right?" Li Jinzhu couldn't hold back, and asked with concern.

Li Xiaonan held her chin and held her breath slightly looking at Mrs. Wu.

"It doesn't really make me angry." Mrs. Wu frowned slightly, paused, and sighed softly, "We are in-laws, so I won't beat around the bush.

"It's not that I'm dissatisfied with the marriage between Yin Zhu and Ah Ye. Ah Ye has been with him since he was a child, and all major and minor matters are arranged by him. The marriage of Ah Ye has been pick and choose for many years. Weng Aye wants to pick a good girl for Aye who is well-read and well-read.

"Your family's Yinzhu will be ordered later."

Mrs. Wu sighed again.

"He, Weng Weng, said that we are close relatives, and I have nothing to say. Later, I heard Ah Ye say that Yin Zhu could not read, and later, Ah Ye said that Yin Zhu began to learn to read and write since we were engaged, saying yes I can finish reciting the Three Character Classic."

Mrs. Wu then sighed.

"In my heart, I feel better.

"It took only a few months from engagement to marriage, and Yinzhu was able to finish reciting the Three Character Classic, at least not stupid.

"I just thought, luckily in the midst of misfortune, Yinzhu is not stupid, but she lacks someone to teach her, so I planned that when she married into our family, I would spend a few years to teach her well, At least you have to be passable in terms of learning, right?

"Then Yinzhu got married, alas, on the first day of marriage, when she got up early in the morning, Yinzhu went into the tea room and started the fire, saying she wanted to boil water for cooking, which filled the room with smoke.

"I saw it, alas, Yinzhu can't even tell the difference between the kitchen and the waiter, how can this be done!

"Aye is the eldest grandson of our Hong family, the eldest son of our Hong family, and Yinzhu will also be the wife of the clan in the future. This family manager must be taught well, right?
"I just thought, when they are married for a full month, I will let Aye go to school in Pingjiang City, and Yinzhu will stay at home with me. I will teach her well for a few years. Who knows that Yinzhu won't listen to anything. I must come to Pingjiang City with Aye."

Mrs. Wu stroked her chest lightly.Looked pissed off.

Li Yuzhu stopped spinning a long time ago. Seeing Mrs. Wu's hand caressing her chest, and thinking of Yinzhu's usual stunned head, she held her breath and dared not move.

Li Jinzhu subconsciously looked at Li Xiaonan.

Li Xiaonan rested her chin, seeming to be listening with gusto.

Li Jinzhu looked at Li Xiaonan, and Mrs. Wu also looked at Li Xiaonan. Li Xiaonan met Mrs. Wu's gaze and quickly laughed along with her.

Mrs. Wu frowned suddenly.

When Yinzhu reasoned with her, it was her nan who always told her, and this nan laughed at her when she heard this!

This youngest one is really the most ignorant!
Li Xiaonan saw Mrs. Wu frowned and turned her eyes away to ignore her, suddenly realized, how could she laugh!Everyone was furious, and she smiled like that, didn't she seem to gloat?
"Then what do you mean?" Li Jinzhu answered quickly.

"You persuade her for me. She is not only Aye's daughter-in-law, but also the housewife of our Hong family. The future clan wife must be knowledgeable, and she must not be ignorant of family affairs! She and Aye will be husband and wife for life. For a long time, the relationship between the husband and wife is not in this year or two."

Mrs. Wu's voice was not so calm anymore.

"Yinzhu came here with you? I'll go tomorrow, or should I go now?" Li Jinzhu quickly agreed.

"She hasn't come yet, she will arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. It's getting late, I'm leaving." Mrs. Wu stood up and walked out with an unhappy expression on her face.
