Yoshida Mii

Chapter 251

"Grandma, don't go..." Song Zhaodi pulled Huang Shi back with all her strength, "If you offend those officials, what are you going to do to my third uncle?"

Huang's eyes were fierce enough to kill people, and he gritted his teeth and scolded: "Ah bah! They are the only ones? They are of no quality or grade, and they are not worthy of carrying shoes for my son! How dare you play tricks? My third son... my third son must be Scholars, they made a mistake! When my third son wins the first prize, I will cut off their heads one by one!"

Oh my god, this is even more crazy!

Song Zhaodi kept complaining, and now she finally saw the old man leading the family running home from a distance, she panicked and shouted: "Father, mother, hurry up, I can't hold the milk anymore!"

The old man Song was old and strong, and he ran in the front. Seeing Huang's eyes straightened, his face pale, struggling to hit someone, he looked crazy, hugged Huang's arm in a panic, and asked, "Your grandma?" What's the matter?"

"That's right, the people who heard the good news said... Lin Shi was selected as a scholar, not my third uncle, that's what happened to my grandma." Song Zhaodi stammered, feeling ashamed of herself.

Mrs. Huang suddenly spat on Song Zhaodi's face, and cursed sinisterly: "X girl is talking nonsense! It's your third uncle who got hit! They made a mistake, and my mother hacked them to death. Lin Shi is a brat, how dare you Stealing my third son's fame...I have to kill them!"

Second Aunt Song was watching the joke, pretending to be worried, clapping her hands and shouting, "Oh, Dad, what should I do? Mother is really crazy! I'll go and call Mother!"

Mrs. Huang struggled so hard that Old Song almost couldn't hold her for a while, but at the moment he was helpless, so he could only say: "Then you shout, your mother has lost her mind this time, just call her soul back."

There is a superstitious saying in the countryside that if a person suddenly becomes insane due to an unbearable stimuli, then the soul has been seduced by dirty things, and the soul wanders around the person's body, not in the body, causing the person's spirit to be abnormal.The so-called soul-calling is a woman who is close to the crazy person, while fanning around the person with her hand, shouting: "XX, come back soon!"

And if a child falls down and cries, the people here also think that the child's soul is light, and it is easy to leave the body with a knock, and the older adults should call the child's soul.

Second Aunt Song shouted: "Mother, come back quickly!" while fanning the wind on Huang's body in a serious manner, as if this could push Huang's separated soul back into her body, she shouted several times in a row, Huang's She still looked mad with a red anxious face, if old man Song hadn't hugged her tightly, she would have rushed to the next door and made a big fuss.

"Oh, I can't shout back! My mother is so crazy! I have to ask a fairy teacher to do it for my mother!" Second Aunt Song shouted.The so-called fairy masters are actually the godmothers in the countryside. Their main job is to farm, just like ordinary peasant women. By the way, they also do some dancing masters, sell talisman water and other side jobs to increase their income.

Old man Song didn't believe that those wives who danced to the gods could cure Mrs. Huang. Seeing the schadenfreude smile on Second Aunt Song's face, he just felt anxious. In the end, there was nothing he could do, he swung his arm and slapped Huang's face.

Don't talk about doing it, old man Song has never even spoken to Huang Shi in his life, but this time he slapped Huang Shi, even Er Mao who was laughing at the joke was shocked.

The slap was crisp and loud, and Huang was also stunned. After a while, she finally came back to her senses, but she rolled her eyes and passed out.

"Hurry up and help me carry your mother into the house!" Old Man Song shouted to Song Yu.

Several people carried Mrs. Huang into the house, took off her shoes and covered her with a quilt, then came out and walked into the yard.The Lin family next door was very lively, with the sound of firecrackers, suona, and congratulations one after another, making the courtyard of the Song family even more desolate and deserted.

Song Yu leaned against the wall with a stern face and folded his hands, squinting for a while at the high wall separating the Lin family, and for a while looking at old man Song. Although he didn't say a word, he clearly showed his affection to old man Song dissatisfied.

After her little daughter was drowned by Mrs. Huang, Second Aunt Song liked to speak out. She snorted, as if talking to herself, and said angrily: "I said he couldn't pass the exam, so it wasn't that one." What a waste of money... I spent the life of my own niece! The money for him is enough for a few scholars to come out, and he puts on airs in front of us every day, looking like a dog! Bah, what? Things! Let’s see that we’re easy to bully, we’re hardworking, and we don’t pass the exam every year, so we still pay for him every year? What we owed him in our previous life, we don’t owe him anything!”

Originally, Uncle Song and his wife were on the verge of breaking out when they heard that Lin Shi had been admitted as a scholar on the way, but nothing happened to Song Bai. Woolen cloth?I have been studying for seven or eight years, and I failed the exam twice. I don’t touch the spring water at home, and the food is the best. Why?Why!

Old man Song's face turned green and pale for a while, and his fingers trembled in his sleeves so that he could hardly feel it. He subconsciously wanted to smoke the other tobacco sticks on his waist, but failed. Then he remembered that Dongbao bought it for him. The tobacco leaves were exhausted long ago, and it was not easy to find withered and yellow grass leaves to smoke at this time of year. He had quit smoking for a long time.

In fact, after he heard the news, he knew something was wrong by looking at the expressions of his second son and daughter-in-law. If Lin Shi also failed the ranking, it would be easy to say. After all, everyone knows that being a scholar is not so easy to take the exam. He was just a boy all his life, but Lin Shi passed the exam. A kid who studied hard for more than two years was admitted. Song Bai spent so much money and studied for so many years but failed the exam. Who would be convinced?What can he say?

How did Lin Shi pass the exam?This is how shameless San'er is!Old man Song also secretly complained about the Lin family next door.

"Father." Seeing that old man Song was silent, Song Yu finally couldn't help it, and said, "It's not that I don't miss brotherhood, but the third child is too disappointing. No light. Da Mao’s mother is right, we husband and wife have nothing to do with him, who told me to be a brother? But Da Mao and Er Mao have grown up soon, there is no reason for a nephew to support his uncle’s education, right? If you can't pass the exam, you have to be a master at home every year, are you willing..." Song Yu sneered, and said fiercely, "We don't want to!"

Song Yu didn't dare to speak so harshly in front of Mrs. Huang, but he dared to speak out in front of old man Song.

Old man Song licked his dry lips, and said after a while, "Second brother, it's not easy to be a scholar. Back then, your elder brother... didn't you take the exam for several years?"

"Hey! Dad, why are you talking about my elder brother? My elder brother has been in the exam for several years, but when he is at home, he is not the same as the third child. He waits for someone to take care of everything! My sister-in-law... that's no less Work." Song Yu didn't pay attention to talking about Mrs. Li, and finally told the truth. After Mrs. Li left, the work at home suddenly became heavy again. Second Aunt Song and Mrs. Huang complained so much that they realized Mrs. Li's It is a pity that people have been driven away by them.

Old man Song sighed, "That's not what I said, this person is different... I think San'er has worked hard in the past two years, and maybe a good thing will happen next year, why are you so anxious? Wait for your brother to pass the exam If you become a scholar, can you not take care of Da Mao and Er Mao? If San'er becomes an official, there are not many good girls rushing to marry Da Mao and Er Mao? Maybe you can even talk about the official lady..."

Before old man Song finished speaking, Second Aunt Song exaggeratedly patted her thigh with a long voice and shouted: "Hey, miss the official family, tsk tsk! Daddy, you really dare to think! Our couple are mud legs, don't you?" Dare to think about the official lady, we Da Mao can marry someone as rich as Wang Xiaobao's family."

It has to be said that compared to the old couple of the Song family, the Song Er couple is very practical in terms of marrying their children. The big cakes painted by the old man Song can no longer satisfy the Song Er couple.

The three children in Erfang, even the youngest and most ignorant Ermao seemed to understand what happened, and stood behind the Erfang couple together. In contrast, Mrs. Huang was in a coma, and Song Bai was the only one who supported Song Bai's studies. The old man is alone and weak.

Old man Song had nothing to say, and his heart was gloomy. The third son failed the exam this time, which took away the confidence and patience of the second son's family, especially when there was a scholar next door.

Seeing that old man Song didn't speak, Second Aunt Song couldn't help it anymore, and said with a smile: "Father, Da Mao and I both know what you and your mother are thinking. After working hard for many years, he brought along his uncle and my uncle. The two lives of the little girl are just to confess to an official. I don’t think it’s better to separate the family. We divide the land in the family by four or six. You and your mother love the third child the most, so let’s live with the third child. A lot, hehe, let us take up more land, don't worry dad, Da Mao and I will pay respect to you old couple every year!"

When old man Song heard the words, he was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe, split up?Breaking up at this juncture?The meaning of the second daughter-in-law is obvious, she is not willing to support them anymore, Huang and he are both old and their health is not as good as before, how many more years can they work?If Song Bai doesn't pass the examination as a scholar...

"Second daughter-in-law, you... you have a good plan!" Old man Song was clumsy and tongue-tied, coughing violently in anger.

While the Lin family was celebrating, there was also a group of announcers from the town, and they rushed directly to Baoji shop. It turned out that Zhang Qian had also been selected as a scholar. The announcers went to Zhangjia Village first, and heard that Zhang Xiucai My mother was in the Baoji shop in the town, so she came to the town again.

Li Hongqin burst into tears of joy, and really wanted to rush to the grave of her late husband to tell him the good news. Zhang Xiuyu wiped her tears and advised her mother not to get too excited and hurt her body.

Mrs. Li was also sincerely happy for her sister's family. Seeing that Li Hongqin was only interested in wiping tears for joy, she quietly made a few red envelopes and prepared to send them to the announcer.

"No, no!" Li Hongqin held back Li Shi, and said resolutely and joyfully, "I have to pay for this money myself!"
