Dressed as a vicious stepmother, the whole family is full of wealth

Chapter 11, Mother's Deterrence
Qiao Yang nodded in agreement: "This bowl of rice is the best in the world. I have never tasted such delicious rice, such delicious pork...it is so fragrant, even more fragrant than yesterday's pigeon meat!"

Qiao Cheng got carried away with joy, thinking that yesterday he could eat pigeon meat, and today he could eat white rice and pork, which was something he never dreamed of, but now it came true, thinking that it was all thanks to grandma.

Qiao Cheng thought of how grandma beat and scolded her mother and aunt before, and couldn't help but feel worried.

He suddenly stopped his chopsticks and looked at Xiao Qing: "Grandma, can you treat us as well as these two days every day in the future? Don't beat my mother and aunt, don't call us animals, don't let my second uncle starve, Don't you want to exchange some of us for money? Will you treat us as well as you have these two days in the future?"

As soon as the words were finished, all the voices in the yard stopped abruptly, and the terrified eyes of the three adults fell on Qiao Cheng.

Mrs. Zhou quickly put down the bowl and chopsticks, grabbed the bowl and chopsticks from Qiao Cheng's hand, and put them on the table with a "bang".

"Xiao Cheng, what are you talking about? Ah? How can you say such things to grandma?" Mrs. Zhou scolded and beat Qiao Cheng anxiously, while apologizing to Xiao Qing: "Mother, I don't know why Xiao Cheng said that suddenly Don't listen to him, if you want to beat and scold me, beat me and scold me, it's because I didn't teach it well, mother..."

Qin also put down the bowl and chopsticks, and quickly knelt down to Xiao Qing to admit his mistake.

"Mother, children are ignorant. You must not take what you say to your heart. You are doing it for our own good. We know in our hearts that children don't understand, but we understand. Mother, you must not take it to your heart!" Qin kowtowed to confess Qiao Cheng's mistake.

Qiao Erjing was calmer. Seeing that his mother had not moved, he persuaded him, "Mother, Qiao Cheng is just a child..."

Several adults urged anxiously, and the children around the table slowly put down their chopsticks, not daring to eat any more.

Under the watchful eyes of her family, Xiao Qing smiled slowly. She picked up the rice in the bowl, and she was not in a hurry to speak, but she was not angry either. No one dared to move their chopsticks.

The air seemed to freeze at this moment, Mother didn't speak, no one dared to move, she even wanted to run away, for fear that Mother would turn back again.

Finally, Xiao Qing finished chewing the food in his mouth, touched his fat belly comfortably, and was finally full. At this moment, his eyes shifted to Zhou Shi and Qin Shi: "You two get up! This problem of kneeling at every turn needs to be corrected." !"

Zhou Shi and Qin Shi were so frightened that they lowered their heads and trembled slightly, rubbing their hands nervously, worried that their mother would hit Qiao Cheng again.

Xiao Qing said with a smile: "From now on, no one in our family is allowed to kneel. Not only does the man have gold under his knees, but this daughter also has jade on her legs! Gold is precious, so don't kneel!"

Zhou Shi and Qin Shi responded timidly and stood up.

Only then did Xiao Qing set his sights on Qiao Cheng, his eyes were full of distress and gratitude: "Don't be afraid of Xiao Cheng, grandma listens to you, and will never beat your mother and aunt again, and will raise you two White and fat, strong and solid, okay?"

Feeling Xiao Qing's sincerity, Qiao Cheng nodded heavily, then stretched out his little finger and handed it to her: "Well, then grandma checks with me, and if you check, it's our death promise."

Seeing his wrinkled little hand reaching out, Xiao Qing smiled and hooked his plump little finger to Qiao Cheng's. The two of them hooked, as if they had reached a major agreement.

After comforting Qiao Cheng, Xiao Qing smiled and handed his finger to them after seeing the other children, "Come on, all hook up with grandma... make a death promise?"

Encouraged by Qiao Cheng and Qiao Yang, the children hooked their fingers with Xiao Qing one by one. Under the witness of the three adults, this agreement seemed to be a guarantee in their hearts, a guarantee that they would no longer live in fear.

But Qiao Erjing always felt that Mother had changed, not because she became nice to them, but because she seemed to be a different person. In just a moment, when they were about to be suffocated by tension, Mother delayed speaking. This kind of deterrence , Niang would never do it before, but no matter what, the Niang in front of him is very likable, and they like it very much.

In the end, only the timid and innocent Qiao Yu was left. Seeing everyone hooking hands with Mother, she didn't dare to move. She secretly looked at Mother, lowered her head, and didn't laugh or make trouble.

Xiao Qing put her little finger in front of Qiao Yu for a while, but she didn't notice, she kept her head down, she almost understood in her heart that this child was more afraid of her than anyone else.

The Fang family in the neighboring village is going to come to make an engagement in the next two days. Qiao Yu's character is already in their hands, and the matchmaker will discuss the date when she comes again.

She is still so young, so she is going to be married. As the stepmother of the instigator, how can she not be afraid of her, and now asking her to marry a fool, isn't that forcing her into a pit of fire?

Xiao Qing was not in a hurry to ease the relationship between their mother and daughter, she withdrew her fingers, lowered her head and smiled, as the days went by, they were all honest children.

After lunch, the family is full and full, and the family is busy again.

Xiao Qing called Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Zhou into the house, and pointed to a few pieces of cloth on the hay: "Mother knows that you two are good at making clothes, so I will give these two pieces of cloth to you two, and this piece of fine linen is for the child." Let’s make some inner garments, and make some clothes out of these two bolts of sackcloth, and make two for the grown-ups to wear first.”

In addition, I gave them the needles and threads I bought from shopkeeper Li.

The two of them took the three pieces of cloth and walked out after listening to the words. As long as they listen to their mother, they will have food and clothing in the future.

There were no children's voices outside, Xiao Qing thought that Er Jing took them to dig wild vegetables and dry firewood on the mountain.

Xiao Qing didn't care about them, Er Jing had been paying for the family all the time, he bought those saws and files to make furniture, the family was too short of beds.

She walked back and forth between the house and the yard a few times to increase the number of steps in the system. The more steps the better, she would lie down on the wicker chair when she was tired from walking, and everyone would lie down and fall asleep again.

I don't know how long I slept, but it seemed that I heard someone talking loudly outside, and Xiao Qing was woken up.

"Is Xiao Yuniang at home?" The voice was friendly and lively.

But this sound woke Xiao Qing up completely. This is Qi Dazhen, the daughter-in-law of Zhang You from the same village. This Qi Dazhen has quite a reputation, but it is not a good one, because she said that relatives don't care about human ethics, and she only needs to give her money to buy a pair of shoes. , please eat fish, she will tell people about marriage, as for whether it is suitable or not, it is up to the two families to decide, the most wicked thing, she once said to a girl whose parents died in the same village, so she became famous, in In the village of nearly a hundred miles away, there was no one who didn't know her name.

The original owner knew that she didn't care about the human relationships, and didn't ask the owner's length, whether it was suitable, or whether there were any rules. As long as she gave money, shoes, drink matchmaker wine, and eat a big fish, she would do it. The original owner found her and offered to ask her Find this marriage for Qiao Yu.

He also promised her that he would go to the county town to buy her a pair of cloth shoes and a big fish as a gift.

This time, I must have come to choose a date for Qiao Yu.
