Chapter 242: Aunt Feng
Aunt Feng took Zhou Shangyi into the inner room and said, "Master, Yi Yinger, in your opinion, Brother Bo is both a shop and at home, but it's hard enough. It's better to let Brother Liang go to the store to help him. After all, those people in the store are not as worry about their families..."
Without finishing his words, he was looked at by Zhou Shangyi with a sneer, "What? Can you point fingers at Dalang's business?
When Aunt Feng heard the wrong voice, she knelt down on the ground and wiped her tears and said, "How can Yinger have such courage? Why is Yinger so unruly in the master's mind?
Zhou Shangyi didn't say anything, so she had to continue to say, "Ying'er... Ying'er just wanted to ask Brother Liang to help Brother Bo... It's better than those outsiders, isn't it..."
The more Zhou Shangyi listened, the more blue his face became. He directly pointed to her and said, "What are you talking about! Brother Liang is going to participate in the scientific examination, which is to show off his ancestors, but you let him come to the Sheshi to discuss! Are you blinded by lard? Or is the Zhou family short of you? Let you be so... so ignorant!"
Aunt Feng is different from Aunt Wang. She is the wife of a small family. It is because of her good appearance that she was selected by the Du family to serve Zhou Shangyi. Although she knew that Mrs. Guan was majestic and decent, she felt that she was more confident because she had money in her hand. At this time, when he saw that Zhou Shangyi was about to go out, he hugged his thigh and cried, "Master, everyone said that it was earned by Brother Bo. In the future... How will our mother live?"
Zhou Shangyi trembled with anger, "Now, my lord, I'm still living well, so you start to think about the future?"
Aunt Feng was shocked to find that she had said something wrong. She panicked and said, "Master, Yinger, Yinger didn't mean that..."
Zhou Shangyi didn't want to listen any more and said, "Reflect yourself in the courtyard. In the past two months, there have been a lot of things at home, so don't go out to make trouble!"
After saying that, he didn't care about her, pushed her away directly, walked to the door, and then turned around and said, "Dalang is not that cool person. Brother Liang has great ambitions, and Dalang will do his best to fulfill him. I don't care about Brother Liang's affairs in the future. I'll take care of it myself. There are also Liulang. Although he is smart, he has no intention to learn. It's better to send it to Dalang first and let him follow Dalang, or learn to be a student. Xiao Shiniang, from tomorrow, send it to your wife's place and let her raise her in person.
Aunt Feng was already paralyzed and muttered unconsciously, "Why? Sir, why is this? Obviously, he is my good brother. In the past, he was deceived by Brother Bo to go to work as a teacher in the village to support his family. Now his family is better, and he is asked to take the exam. You just let him stay away from home so that he can't get any benefits at home..." Aunt Feng, although she is born with cultured people. There is a kind of admiration, but after living in the capital for a long time, I also know that there are many senior officials and minor officials, which is not unattainable. Moreover, his son has become a scholar at a young age. Now it is reasonable to grab some more money. After all, in high school, it is like a dream, and only when the ancestral grave has been smoking can.
Seeing that she was so confused, Zhou Shangyi didn't bother to explain and shook his hand and said, "You are simply unreasonable! Nonsense!" Slam the door and go away.
The next day, Aunt Feng was banned, and everything was known up and down. But this time, not only was she forbidden, but also Xiao Shiniang was carried to Du's place. Although she didn't know what had happened, she also wanted to know that it must be extremely important.
Brother Liang was worried, so he secretly went to visit Aunt Feng. Aunt Feng was sitting on the couch in a daze, pulling out a few pots of calla leaves one by one. After pulling them out, they were torn to pieces little by little. Brother Liang took a step forward and whispered, "Auntie, what's wrong?"
Brother Liang gently removed the potted plants directly from her hand, and Aunt Feng reacted. She shook her head with her eyes and said, "Auntie is just unwilling. Why is all the good things for others? Now the Zhou family is all up to Brother Bo to decide? Even Shu'er's marriage was also because Er Niang offended Xuejian, so she pointed it out to Shuer... In the future, is there any way out for your brothers?
Brother Liang was stunned and didn't expect that his aunt had become more and more eccentric since the accident of the Zhou family. When I saw my sister-in-law for the first time, the scene was so hot that she fanned the flames. Later, every conflict in the family was mixed with her. In the past, she was not like this... Brother Liang frowned at Aunt Feng and asked, "Did aunt say something to her father? Dad is so angry?"
Aunt Feng nodded and couldn't help crying when she thought of Zhou Shangyi's departure yesterday. "You didn't see your father like that. I just want you to help your eldest brother, so as not to work too hard. Who knew that your father would turn against you. This time I finally saw what real bias is. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid of the future. You said that the money in this family is all up to your eldest brother. A hundred years later, your father still has our mother and son's way to live?"
As soon as Brother Liang heard it, he knew that this was Aunt Feng's trouble again. Now that the whole family has been reunited, even his sister-in-law has come back, and his little nephew is about to be born again. How can he come to his aunt and become a negative textbook? He closed his eyes slightly and was really worried. It would be easier for him to write an article on the world, or poetry and songs, but how to correct the deviation of this person's heart?
Knowing that she must have not eaten, she sighed and asked the servants to bring up the food. Brother Liang waited on Aunt Feng to eat a few bites, and then said slowly, "Auntie, the current business of the Zhou family is all earned by the eldest brother and sister-in-law. Even if there is no money for me, it should be."
After stopping what Aunt Feng wanted to say, Brother Liang said, "It's not easy for you to be in the capital. Are we doing well in Pingshan Village?" In those years, the young masters and ladies of the Zhou family did not live a hard life. They only knew how to spend money and save money brought back from the capital, but spent a lot of time in half a year. If it hadn't been for the beginning of fishing after the snow, everyone would have walked down step by step. I'm afraid they would have starved to death. I also complained about my eldest brother at the beginning, but as I grew older and my knowledge increased, I became more and more aware of my eldest brother's difficulty and tolerance. Shi Nong Industry and Commerce, the eldest brother put all the opportunities for the Zhou family to turn over on himself, and he himself shouldered the difficult burden of supporting his family and making a fortune. Of course, Brother Liang understands that with his eldest brother's nature, he will naturally not wrong any brother or sister in this money. It can be seen from Shuer's dowry.
Knowing that Aunt Feng's psychological worries are purely unfounded, or simply nothing happened, but Brother Liang also knew that his aunt was afraid of being wronged, so he slowly said, "Big brother and sister-in-law are both people with great wisdom, and also have temperament that others don't have. Heart. My aunt was indeed wrong this time, and she was a little wrong.
Aunt Feng wants to jump up as soon as she hears it. Her son is so solid that he can also be recognized as a needle when others give him a mallet. Who cares more about you in this family than your aunt? Do you feel more sorry for you? Now you have chilled your aunt's heart for them!"
Brother Liang felt that Aunt Feng had changed too much in the past two years. In the past, she was just a little narrow-minded, but now she couldn't get out of the horns, so he stroked his forehead and said painfully, "Auntie, you are so thin than him. It's really... really..."
Brother Liang did not have the ability to persuade his aunt, but Liulang came over a few days later and said casually: "Auntie, you are really a lot of trouble. Which one do you think is more respectable, an official wife or a businessman's wife? Which one is more splatoon? I heard that even the Bai County magistrate is optimistic about the achievements of the third brother, saying that he will win this time, and the Zhou family will rely on the third brother to change their facade. On that day, our Zhou family will no longer be a cheap merchant who is slaughtered by others, but also looking for a good marriage for the third brother. My aunt is waiting to enjoy happiness. Why, don't you want to live such a life instead?
When Aunt Zhao came back to secretly visit Aunt Feng, Aunt Feng calmed down a lot. I haven't picked up the needle and thread for a long time, and I also picked it up and embroidered a belly pocket in the house.
When Aunt Feng heard Aunt Zhao's voice ringing from outside the house, she raised her face and said with a smile, "Third sister, why are you here? Aren't you afraid of the master's annoyance?" As he spoke, he put down the embroidery.
Aunt Zhao glanced at the five blessings on her belly pocket, and smiled more, "The second sister, this female red, is more refined than before."
Hearing this, Aunt Feng sighed, "The third sister is really good at talking. Who doesn't know that the third sister's female red is the most powerful."
As the two talked, Aunt Zhao went to the bed, took the belly pocket with the needle, then embroidered it, and smiled, "In only a few days, the second sister has embroidered so much. It can be seen that it is troublesome. Xuejian is really a blessing..."
Aunt Feng hummed softly and didn't say anything. She reluctantly smiled and said, "After all, it's the eldest grandson of the Zhou family. How can you not bother? Besides... Besides, I have nothing to do now..."
Aunt Zhao said hurriedly, "Xue saw that she was going to give birth. At that time, she was very busy. The wife still pointed to the second sister to help, and the master wouldn't say anything." As he spoke, he bit off the silk thread in his hand.
Aunt Feng first lit up, then shook her head with a masked smile and said, "I don't have this ability. Don't help more and more."
