Traveling through ancient times and marrying a ruffian

Chapter 14

The 10-year-old boy has already begun to look like a man, with strong self-esteem.After crying for a while, the little boy felt embarrassed, put his head on his sister's neck, and refused to lift it up, Shen Mumu took a lot of effort to finally tear it off.

"Look, sister and brother have not seen each other for a few days, but they are very sticky. No wonder Xiaoyuan misses you, I miss you too. Even your uncle, I have been thinking about you these few days." The aunt, Shen Li, stood Behind the two of them, they took a handkerchief and carefully wiped the corners of their eyes, as if they were very touched.

Shen Mumu took a handkerchief and carefully wiped the sweat stains on the young boy's face and the mud stains from unknown places, noncommittal, "Where did you go wild? Did you get all dirty?"

The little boy raised his head to make it easier for his sister to wipe his face. There were still water stains in his eyes, and his black jewel-like eyes were fixed on his sister's eyebrows.He didn't speak, just grinned happily.

"Oh, the sun is already high, let's go in quickly, don't get the child sunburned." Seeing Xiao Yuan smiling, Shen Li urged the two of them to enter the house.

"Xiaoyuan, don't cry too. Let's be happy to see my sister. Let's walk around, let's go into the house, and turn around and burn my sister. Your brother-in-law will have to ask your aunt to settle the score." Shen Libian said While joking, he stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to rub the child's head, but Xiao Yuan dodged it.

She didn't care, her expression didn't change, she changed the topic and moved on.

There are a lot of crackling words, which can be summed up in two points: [-]. Complaints.Talk about the suffering she has suffered these days, the suffering suffered by the child, and the suffering suffered by the Shen family.[-]. Crusade and condemnation.Count the crimes of some people in detail, saying that so-and-so used to be brothers and sisters with the uncle, and seeing their family in trouble, not to mention people, ghosts.So-and-so's family owed uncle some kindness a few years ago, and now they don't care about them at all, they are ungrateful...

That's a person with both voice and emotion, excellent singing and writing.

She wouldn't believe a word of crying poor, just look at the silver hairpin on the aunt's head, the emerald jade slightly protruding from the sleeve, and the handkerchief with excellent embroidery in her hand, which one doesn't cost money? !She clearly remembered that after the ransacking of the house, the female family members wept and removed the jewelry and exchanged it for money.The uncle's jewelry can only be newly bought later.

As I said before, the Shen family is a skinny camel, bigger than a horse.The Shen family definitely has more than one house in Chashu Town. If the old house of the Shen family is just an empty shelf, where does the uncle get the money to wear the gold and silver?What did the servants waiting at the door eat?
Shen Mumu originally listened to it as if she was listening to a play, but the more she listened to it, the more unpleasant it became: This Shen Li is crying poor with her, is it possible that she is afraid that she will come back to borrow money?

Looking down at the rough cloth clothes he was wearing, he really looked shabby.

This is the clothes she dug out from her dowry on the first day she woke up. The style is novel, and it is the style that people in Kyoto like to wear nowadays, but the material is the same as that Xie Yu wears, and they are all inferior. coarse cloth.

When tidying up the dowry, Shen Mumu turned a few boxes upside down, and inside were only a few quilts and the old clothes Shen Mumu wore in her boudoir.There are also new clothes, but they are all rough and the sizes are too big.

Shen Mumu rummaged through the dowry box, but he couldn't find any new clothes for men, nor the soles of his shoes...

In this era, once the marriage is settled, the girl has to pay the soles of the old man's shoes and sew new clothes for her husband while she is waiting to get married.When getting married, they carry it together as a dowry.

Although his memory is vague, he knows without thinking that Shen Mumu couldn't have prepared this dowry by himself.For one thing, the second householder of the Shen family is gone, and the eldest householder is the elder, so it's time for them to prepare.Secondly, Shen Mu didn't intend to marry at all, and with the shock of his father's sudden death, he didn't have the mind to take care of these things at all.

If it wasn't prepared by Shen Mumu, it could only be prepared by the housekeeper's aunt.

Since the aunt can wear gold and silver, she doesn't have the money to buy a decent dowry for her niece.If it's not about money, it's because he doesn't care about his niece.

Thinking of this, Shen Mumu's eyes turned cold, maybe...the Shen family's aunt had expected such a possibility?
Heh, although there is no superficial harsh treatment, but judging from the fact that she hastily pointed out someone to marry off and the dowry is not fully prepared, the uncle's family really did not treat her well.

That's right, at my brother's funeral, how can I give my niece to someone who doesn't know much in a few words, how can I care about her.

Thinking of this, Shen Mumu was a little fortunate that Xie Yu's mother and son didn't care about the dowry, otherwise, with her few boxes of cheap goods, life would never be easy.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Aunt Shen chatted for a while about the difficult situation of the Shen family, and scolded some people Shen Mumu didn't know at all.Then he began to ask Xie Yu about it in a circumstantial manner, and asked in great detail.When to go out, when to come back, and generally how long to go out, you have to ask, and you are not reserved at all.

On the surface, it is under the banner of caring about her niece's life after marriage, Shen Mumu doesn't believe it, if she really cares about her niece's life after marriage, why until now, she didn't ask Xie Yu if she was good to her, how was her mother-in-law? Didn't make things difficult for her...

"Auntie, to tell you the truth, Xie Yu is a savage. After a few days of marriage, he would come home drunk every night, yelling and ordering others around. Whenever he was unsatisfactory or neglected, he ..." At this point, Shen Mumu lowered his head as if he couldn't continue, and touched his right wrist with his left hand.Look gloomy.

Seeing her aggrieved appearance and the bruise on her right wrist that she "unintentionally" exposed, Shen Lishi decided that Shen Mumu had been raped by her family.Sighing: "everyone's life is like this, and it will be fine in the future. Your uncle has a good eye, this Xie Yu is a bit reckless, but you see it is different to his mother. Treat him well, and he will know Hello's."

The same rhetoric as Xie's mother, but that one is sincere, and this one is full of clichés.

Shen Wenyuan refused to sit down or go out to play. The two beaters had nothing to do with him, so they left him sitting beside his sister.Xie Yu didn't want to sit on his sister's lap, so the siblings squeezed together on a chair.Occupying a small position, most of his body leaned on his sister.

Shen Lishi laughed at him like a little girl, even her sister looked at him funny and didn't care, no one knew how much joy was surging in the little boy's chest.

He is the person closest to his sister, and he can also feel her sister's mood swings the most.After leaving Kyoto, to be more precise, after seeing brother Wenbo, my sister was like a flower short of water, wilting.Although he took care of his father every day and watched him laugh and laugh every day, he could feel his sister's depression.

After his father passed away, my sister cried in her arms, crying until her voice was hoarse and her eyes were swollen.After my father was buried, my sister began to feel a little abnormal.She started not talking, moving or eating.He was in a hurry, and every time he looked for his uncle, he said, "She is too sad, she will be fine in a while." Then he dismissed him.
