Kapitel 61: Chapter 61: Complaint
"We are neighbors, why do we have to make such a scene?" Zhou didn't really care about the farce. "A few little ones don't know how to respect their elders, and we can't fight them?"
"As an elder, they are fighting for a seat with a little one, can't I chase them away?" The bullied people were watching covetously. If Zhou's family of three didn't leave, they would definitely not be able to eat well.
"Crackle, crackle..."
Wei Jingshu squeezed her hands until they creaked, and then walked to Wei Ershan's side to pick up the chopsticks she had just thrown away. Although she didn't say a word, she felt very pressured.
The moment Wei Jingshu approached, Wei Ershan froze and felt extremely difficult to move. Wei Daya couldn't move either, for fear that she would anger Wei Jingshu.
"Mom, let's go." Wei Daya spoke up and pulled Wei Ershan to Zhou's side.
Zhou was not willing to give up, but she couldn't stand Wei Daya's constant nagging, so she suppressed her temper and left angrily.
"What a lousy place, I'm not happy to come even if you invite me." When she reached the door, Zhou kicked the broom beside the door and left cursing.
After the Zhou family of three left, Uncle Wei made a few more jokes, and the scene in the yard became lively.
It was not until the evening that Wei Jingshu's family of five came back.
The setting sun was hanging in the sky, and it was swaying and casting golden light, slanting into the yard.
Wei Daya was guarding in front of the granary with a pot, waiting for the family of five to come back. Her momentum suddenly became fierce, but it all disappeared the moment she saw Wei Jingshu.
Wei Daya hated Wei Jingshu so much that her teeth itched, but she couldn't stop her legs from trembling when she saw her. She swallowed her saliva and prepared herself mentally.
The food was divided equally on each side, and it was natural for her to come to take her own family's food. No matter how capable Wei Jingshu was, could she do everything?
Thinking of this, Wei Daya immediately felt confident. She straightened her back, stood in front of Li Rou, and stretched out her hand: "Key!"
"There's nothing of yours in there. What if you took the key and stole our food?"
With two thousand li silver notes in her pocket, even if all the food in the granary was given to Zhou's family of three, they would not starve. However,
Wei Jingshu's eyes flashed with disgust. None of the three people in this family were good, so her things naturally could not be given to them.
"Why?" Wei Daya's voice suddenly became sharp. "It's clearly written in the division document. Why do you say that there is no food for us in the granary?"
"Where is Liu Pozi, go ask her." Wei Jingshu briefly explained, waved her hand, and went into the house with Li Rou and the three children.
"Wei Jingshu, why did you give our food to Liu Pozi?" Wei Daya was already holding her anger against Wei Jingshu, and now it was even more unbearable.
Wei Jingshu stood up and looked back, tilting her head slightly: "Mrs. Liu said that grandma asked her to take it. If you think there is a problem, go find grandma."
"You..." Wei Daya was furious, but she was concerned about Wei Jingshu's skills and did not dare to act rashly.
Wei Jingshu did not see her and went back to the house.
Wei Daya returned empty-handed, with an angry look on her face, and exaggerated and said bad things about Wei Jingshu to Zhou.
But Zhou was also afraid of Wei Jingshu. She usually acted fearless because she was afraid of losing face, but when she really met, her calves trembled.
"Forget it, forget it, I have a good relationship with Mrs. Liu, I will ask her to take it back tomorrow." She pretended to be generous, "There is no need to confront them for a few bags of grain."
Wei Daya stamped her feet unwillingly, angry and annoyed, but helpless.
The next day, Wei Jingshu got up early, and after breakfast, she studied carpentry in the yard.
She sat on a low stool, with the blueprint under her feet, her hands moving quickly, turning her head from time to time to look at the blueprint, switching the tools in her hands back and forth, and the small parts were formed in her hands.
Although she moved quickly, the parts this time were very delicate, and each one needed to be handled with great care. If there was a mistake, she would have to start all over again.
In this way, the speed was still much slower, and only a few were completed in the morning.
Who knew that when she stretched her body and fished, she heard the quarrel between Liu Pozi and Zhou from behind the courtyard wall.
"I was the one who delivered your Ershan and Daya. I didn't ask you for a penny at the beginning, did I? Now it's just a few bags of grain. You are arguing with me like this, are you embarrassed?"
Wei Jingshu picked up a piece of wood and a file, stood at the door, leaned against the door frame, and kept moving her hands. From time to time, she looked at the two people arguing, completely treating them as monkeys.
Both of them were the top shrews in the village. They started fighting and quarreled until the sky was dark. The unpleasant words jumped out one by one. The sound was so loud that Li Rou, who was concentrating on embroidery in the room, was also affected.
When she walked out with the embroidery, she saw Wei Jingshu leaning against the door frame, looking up from time to time, and nodding silently when she heard something interesting. Wei Jingshu
listened carefully. Although Liu Pozi and Zhou Shi scolded her unpleasantly, it did not prevent her from opening the door to a new world.
This is not a good thing to learn!
Li Rou's eyebrows jumped and she ran to Wei Jingshu in a hurry.
Wei Jingshu had a strong sense of perception. She noticed Li Rou's movement as soon as she turned around and smiled sweetly: "Sister-in-law."
"What are you doing here? Come back with me." Li Rou was afraid that Wei Jingshu would learn bad things, so she took her hand and walked back .
However, it was just this incident that stopped the quarreling.
Zhou Shi was not able to argue with Liu Pozi, which made her quite aggrieved. When she saw Wei Jingshu and Li Rou, she seemed to have found a breakthrough and started to scold.
"Li Rou, look at what you have raised, it's just eavesdropping here. I said this illegitimate child is nothing, but Changlin refused to listen to my advice and insisted on marrying you. Now, Shujie, Yuge'er, and Shuangjie'er have all been ruined by you."
Li Rou's body trembled violently, and the unbearable past came to her.
She was originally from the capital, and her mother was a geisha. Although she was a geisha, she was quite elegant and had a dignified and majestic appearance. She played the piano and sang elegy, and was favored by her father who was in a high position. He deceived her with sweet words and became a concubine in the mansion.
But her status and position, once her father's temporary novelty was over, her mother became a person despised by everyone in the mansion. She was born in such an environment and suffered cold eyes and insults since she was a child. Being a
illegitimate daughter was a mountain pressing on her. When she was in the capital, everyone could bully her because her mother was a geisha and because she was a concubine who could not be on the stage!
Li Rou bit her thin lips tightly, her whole body was cold, and she couldn't stop shaking while holding Wei Jingshu's hand.
Wei Jingshu immediately held back her breath, carefully wrapped Li Rou in her arms, and comforted her softly, "Sister-in-law, I'm here!"
As she spoke, she patted Li Rou's back, then turned her head, her eyes turned cold, and for a moment, it was as if an invisible knife flew towards Zhou.
Zhou's hair stood up, and she was alert. She couldn't help but shrink back, but she pretended to be calm: "I'm not wrong, your eldest brother had already passed the imperial examination and won the first place. If he hadn't married a concubine like her, how could he not even get a Beijing official position."
