Chapter 259
Qi Erlang felt uncomfortable: "Your brother and sister mean your second sister-in-law? She didn't say no, but you also know that the child is only a few months old and will be breastfeeding for a while. We don't take advantage of it, I think so Well, if my sister-in-law has brought out the food for the New Year, then I will have the wine and fruit for the New Year. My daughter-in-law is going to take care of her son, so she won’t come to help with the New Year’s meal!"

Immediately, Qi Liu was so angry that she sat on the ground and burst into tears: "Mother, mother, come and see how your daughter is bullied by your son-in-law? Other men know how to spend money to protect her." Daughter-in-law, don’t let them be cold and tired. Some people rely on their own money to benefit themselves. But what about my man? As long as I open my mouth, he will let me go to the left and the other to go. Conscience has fed the dog! Huh... Mother, come and see how your daughter is being bullied? Why don't you come and see, if one day your daughter is bullied to death, you won't People come to retire and die..."

Qi Lishi had heard the conversation outside the house a long time ago, and she has learned to be smarter now, so she can't wait for her to pay money during the Chinese New Year, she can't wait.And it's not her alone to make the New Year's dinner, the third daughter-in-law and the youngest daughter can all do it.So she has been in the house did not come out to speak.

At this moment, seeing Qi Liushi come out to stir up trouble, although she was a little annoyed, but she was his own niece after all.It's better to kiss than not to kiss, so she didn't stop her.

But at this time, seeing this stupid daughter-in-law getting into trouble in front of the men of the big family, she had no choice but to come forward: "The third family, your family's money is in your hands, if you don't want to contribute, you can give it away, howling here!" What! Calling so loudly, do you want the neighbors to laugh at Lao Qi’s family for being unruly? Why don’t you get up quickly! You can do it if you don’t want to, and you can tell me how much money the two of them pay, and I’ll do it New Year's Eve!"

As soon as Qi Li's words came out, Ji Xinmiao almost laughed out loud: This old woman wants to earn Qi Liu's money!

Qi Erlang took a sympathetic look at Qi Sanlang and said: "Sister-in-law buys food for the New Year's dinner. In previous years, five hundred yuan is enough. Wine and fruit are still available for the first month. I will pay one tael of silver."

Ji Xinmiao knew that Qi Erlang was also taking care of her, so she agreed with a smile: "Since the second uncle contributed one or two taels of silver, then I will also contribute one or two taels of silver. We will have a prosperous year this year. The extra vegetables are for the New Year's Eve Once you eat it, the next year will be better and better, and you will have more than enough every year."

What?A tael of silver?
"Okay, it's settled like that. Give me the money from your two families, and I will handle it. The one tael from the third family will be used as wages for me. Everyone will send the money tomorrow." After one or two visits from home, his face immediately blossomed with joy.

Hearing her mother-in-law asking her to pay, Qi Liu immediately got up: "Who said I won't cook New Year's dinner? I didn't say I wouldn't work, my family can't afford a tael of silver."

Father Qi shook his head and sighed secretly to the two women in the family, and finally he decided: "You don't need to pay the money, the old family and the second family, you can buy things by yourself according to the share of one tael of silver. Some things can be bought in advance , Things get more expensive as the Chinese New Year approaches.”

Qi Li's expression immediately dropped when he heard Father Qi's arrangement: "The things you buy must be left with me, or I will have to ask you for things every day during the New Year's Eve."

Ji Xinmiao knew that Qi Li would not dare to ask for money in front of Qi's father. Anyway, she was going to pay two taels of silver. If she only used one tael, she would be more happy.So she smiled and said, "Don't worry, mother-in-law. I will bring back the vegetables for the New Year's dinner three days before the first year, and I will hand them to mother-in-law together. This year's Chinese New Year will be hard work for you."

Because the heavy snow has been falling every now and then, Ji Xinmiao's belly is getting bigger and bigger.She doesn't dare to go out. There are no non-slip leather cotton shoes in this era. The only pair of leather boots on her legs that can go out are specially made by Mrs. Hu. It is almost rare for Yue to go out.

The shiitake mushrooms sent to Qianxianglou will naturally not be sent on the 23rd. Unexpectedly, Qi Silang will bring back a series of Chinese New Year things: "Sister-in-law, this is what Mr. Jiang asked me to bring back, saying that there are some fresh frozen pears in the basket. That thing is on fire, let you remember to eat more when you have time."

Aunt Qi looked at Qi Silang carrying things down in baskets and praised: "Sister and sister, this Mr. Jiang is too generous, right? You can't buy this cart without 20 taels of silver."

Qi Liu's said cold words with a look of jealousy: "Mr. Jiang really cares about my sister-in-law. I don't know what the relationship is. He sent so many things during the Chinese New Year. People who don't know think that it was sent by the elder brother. "

Aunt Qi frowned and cursed: "Second Sister Liu, if you don't know how to speak, just shut up your stinking mouth! Mr. Jiang is the eldest brother who is sworn to by heart, not everyone is as nasty as you!"

"Eldest sister, I know you have taken advantage of them a lot, but you can't make excuses like this out of conscience, can you? The sworn elder brother? The devil would believe it!"

Ji Xinmiao ignored Qi Liushi, she took her words as fart.Because, she felt that if she continued to entangle with this Qi Liu family, her grade would be lowered by eighteen levels.She has a lot of ways to deal with a greedy woman like her.

After Qi Silang put down the things, Ji Xinmiao turned over and took out a leather vest from the basket and handed it to Father Qi: "Father, you are older, and your back is afraid of the cold when you go out in winter. The leather vest I asked shopkeeper Chen to make for you in the city is made of excellent fox fur given by Brother Hu, so you can wear it during the Chinese New Year."

Then he took out a pair of leather muffs from the bottom of the basket and handed them to Qi Silang, saying, "Fourth Uncle, you have been helping drive this carriage. This is a muff I asked someone to make. I will wear this when I go out to drive the carriage." "Mother-in-law, this is the newest spun cotton in the cloth shop in the two cities. I heard that it is paddled in water and will not fade easily. You can use it to make two clothes to visit relatives."

After speaking, Ji Xinmiao took out a small box from the basket, opened it, and took out two silver hairpins from it: "I entrusted shopkeeper Chen to buy these two silver hairpins, one is not expensive and only five taels of silver. Eldest sister and second younger sister, you have helped me in the past six months, I will keep it in my heart, this is my New Year gift to my two sister-in-laws. Please don’t hold it against me, just accept it.”

Qi Erlang and his wife's fabrics, Qi Sanlang's gauze clothes, and Qi Erlang's son who is only a few months old all have gifts, and Qi Liu's is the only one missing in the end.She asked Qi Silang to move things into his room, Qi Liu was anxious: "Why didn't I?"

Ji Xinmiao glanced at her coldly: "This is something I took advantage of. How can such a lowly thing get into your Liu's eyes? Besides, you are not worthy!"
