Across the Market

Chapter 157

The carriage belongs to the Shi family, and although Erniang Wei is Shi Awang's outhouse in Songyang County, Shi Awang treats her like the wife of the main wife, serving as a servant at home, and as a guest when going out. There are many ostentations.Erniang Wei always liked to show off, whenever she went out to a banquet or went shopping, she would swagger through the market in a carriage.

Although Shi Awang told Erniang Wei not to go out before leaving, she couldn't stay at home, and the girls Xiaoju and Xiaomei didn't dare to control her at all.If the master is not here, the wife is the most powerful person in the family. Where anyone dares to restrain Erniang Wei, she must be allowed to do so.

It's the time for dinner, so Fu Ji's business is a little bit weaker, but there are few customers coming to the door.

Wei Sanniang was lowering her head to play with the cake in the sieve, when Yu's sharp eyes saw someone first, she raised her elbow and smashed Wei Sanniang.

"Sister-in-law, look who's here." Yu looked warily at Aunt Wei and Erniang Wei who were slowly walking in, ready to fight with them at any time.

Ever since she learned that they intended to destroy the eldest daughter's innocence, Wei Sanniang no longer had any contact with her natal family, and she didn't even go to her natal family on the second day of the new year when she was supposed to pay New Year's greetings.

Seeing the two elder sisters this time, she didn't have a good face, so she said coldly: "I'm afraid the two nobles have gone to the wrong door. Fuji is a small business, and there is nothing the two nobles want to buy." See The two of them blocked the door of the shop like a mountain, so they shouted, "Please move your honor, don't block the guests behind."

Aunt Wei felt that she could still speak in front of her third sister, even if she was slapped in the face, she forced a smile and walked over, pretending to hold her hand affectionately, but Wei Sanniang slapped her unceremoniously. Shake it off.

There are customers behind who want to buy cakes, Wei Sanniang just greets the customers with a smile, and ignores the two sisters at all.

Mrs. Wei looked at Erniang Wei helplessly. Erniang Wei had never had a good relationship with Sanniang Wei, and she was unwilling to make peace with her. Seeing that the elder sister had hit a wall this time, she shouted: "Look, elder sister!" Well, I've said it all, it's useless for us to do this, you treat her as your own sister, but she doesn't regard you as her own sister."

Mrs. Yu picked up the wooden stick on the side and hit it with a "bang bang", which frightened Erniang Wei so much that she didn't dare to continue being sour.

"Sanniang, let's also open the skylight to tell the truth. We came to you this time to discuss important matters." Erniang Wei didn't want to stay here either. This shop was made with her own money. The longer it was, the more angry he became, so he could only say the key point directly, "You know, that Mrs. Ge ruined our Wei family's style and was divorced by his younger brother. Our younger brother is still young, and it is impossible to stay single forever after divorcing his wife. Definitely want to marry again. People have already agreed that the woman is still a young girl with a decent appearance, and my younger brother likes it very much when he sees it. However, the female lion opened her mouth and asked for a lot of dowry. Mother said, this money The three of us have to leave."

Wei Sanniang said: "Who is mother? What are you guys? What identity do you use to ask for money?"

Although Wei Sanniang has always swallowed her anger in the past, she just thought of the love of her blood relatives, but her bottom line is her children.Now a group of beasts from her natal family dare to secretly hire someone to destroy her daughter's innocence, no matter how soft and weak she is, she will bite people when she is in a hurry, how can she recognize her natal family!

Seeing that she was about to quarrel, Mrs. Wei said: "Sister, we are only one younger brother. Now that something like that happened at home, who else will help if we don't help? Elder sister knows, you are angry in your heart, But all this time has passed, no matter how angry you are, you should calm down, why are you talking like that."

"Elder Sister, she is a rich man now, so naturally she doesn't take us seriously anymore." Erniang Wei rolled her eyes, and couldn't help but look at the shop, seeing that the small shop was tidied up clean and warm, Flames suddenly flared up in my heart.

But thinking that he was here to ask for money, he could only suppress the evil fire.

Wei Sanniang said: "It's the family style of the Wei family that the Ge family corrupted. I was already a member of the Zhu family 20 years ago. Now that the Wei family needs money, what does it matter to me?" The mother said again, "When I got married, didn't the old lady Wei ask for a dowry from the Zhu family like a lion? It caused the Zhu family to save money. Now it's karma, and it's finally the Wei family's turn. The Wei family Don’t you have a house? Such a good house can be sold for a lot of money, since you want to marry a wife, you can sell the house to save some money!”

Aunt Wei said: "Third Sister is being unreasonable. If the house is sold, will the daughter's family be willing to marry? Besides, where does the mother live after selling the house? You can't ask the mother to live on the street, right?"

Mrs Yu has always been displeased with the Wei family, now that she heard what she said, she replied, "Live in a thatched cottage! That thatched cottage doesn't need to be bought with money, you can build it yourself if you pick up thatch, it's winter It’s just a bit of wind and rain leakage, nothing bad. Our old lady can live there for so many years, and your old lady’s body is stronger, so it’s probably not a problem.”

"What are you? We're talking, and you, a country woman, don't have the right to intervene!" Erniang Wei gave Yu a hard look.

Wei Sanniang's heart is now completely cold, and she never sent any hope to her natal family, she just said indifferently: "Do you two ladies have anything else to do? If not, please move the statue, don't get in the way Follow my guest's way. Fuji is a small business, no better than the two wives, who can collect money while sitting at home. Since you love that Mr. Wei so much, you can just chip in the money yourself."

Erniang Wei wanted to quarrel, Aunt Wei pulled her aside, frowned at Sanniang Wei and said, "Sister, you really seem to be a different person, what kind of soup did the Zhu family pour on you?" Let you forget about this! We are not here today to discuss with you whether to give money, but to ask you for money. We have already settled the account, including the dowry, the banquet, and the layout of the new house. Adding seven, seven, eight and eight together, it takes nearly 200 taels of silver, and the three of us pooled together, and one family got 70 taels."

"Mrs. Zhang is worthy of marrying a businessman. This abacus is very good." Zhu Fu came out from the ear of the next door, reached out and brushed the flour crumbs on his clothes, and said casually, "A family of 70 taels, These three companies are worth 210 taels, didn’t you just say that it’s nearly 200 taels? The money that comes out is eaten by dogs?”

When it was revealed on the spot, Mrs. Wei was embarrassed, but insisted: "How many taels do you have left? Naturally, it is reserved for the old lady!"
