Chapter 62 Whoever wants this blessing will want it
Seeing her turn around, Wen Tang smiled at her and said, "Auntie!"
He Lianlian: "..."
Wen Tang: Just from He Lianlian's action just now, she knew that this person was definitely going to gossip about someone, and sure enough, she guessed it right.
Being on the front line of eating melons, super satisfying.
He Lianlian: "...Hehe, um," she laughed twice, and for a moment she didn't know what to say next.
Wen Tang could still laugh and ask her, "Aunt, do you think I'm right?"
He Lianlian: "..."
How to say it?
That she is right?
But after all, she is from the Xu family!
But she couldn't directly say that what they said was wrong. After thinking it over, He Lianlian spoke up, "Niece's wife." She and Gu Jin were sisters-in-law, so she followed Gu Jin and called him, "Niece's wife, you see, you can't say that. The conditions of each family are similar. Everyone is poor..."
Wen Tang nodded, "Yes, even mice have to leave in tears when they come."
He Lianlian was originally preparing to give a long speech, but because of Wen Tang's words "even mice have to go with tears in their eyes," He Lianlian opened her mouth again and fell silent.
I can’t go on with this long speech.
She thought hard and quickly added, "But after all, we are married for life. We can't be so angry over such a small matter, right?"
She also looked at Zhong Meixian, meaning that young people were ignorant and asked Zhong Meixian to help say a few words.
But Zhong Meixian didn't look at her, she only looked at the wild onions she had dug up.
Zhong Meixian: Let’s not talk about the Xu family’s position. I am Gu Jin’s family. You want me to offend my daughter-in-law? Do you think I dare?
Who would have thought that Zhong Meixian didn't say anything, but Wen Tang nodded to her words, "That's right, my aunt should follow my uncle. Although she has suffered a lot in this life, at least my uncle is kind enough to let her pour the foot washing water!"
"It's my aunt's blessing that the job of pouring water for washing feet has not been given to others. Don't you think so, aunt?"
He Lianlian: "...Hehe," she laughed awkwardly twice again.
Chi Yue also covered her mouth and laughed, "That's right, after all, my great-aunt is still in good health, and he has at least 20 years to live. During these 20 years, he still needs someone to take care of him. Since he needs my great-aunt to take care of him, I won't let him die of exhaustion."
"As long as my great aunt can live, I will have to serve her for at least another twenty years. I just don't know who will want this blessing?"
She looked at He Lianlian, "Do you want it?"
He Lianlian: "..."
"...But, but everyone lives this way. Men work outside and women work inside. It's been this way since ancient times." He Lianlian was not stupid. She could tell that what Wen Tang and Chi Yue said were not nice.
Now that she had heard it, He Lianlian could never agree with what these two people said.
Wen Tang nodded and said, "Yes, men work outside and women work inside. But in the past, the women who worked inside were the mistresses of the house, the wives of the rich, and the young mistresses. They had 20 to 30 maids and nannies under them. But no mistress of the house had to work in the fields with the men to earn work points."
Chi Yue reminded her, "The hostess didn't even use her own milk to give birth to a child!"
Wen Tang nodded again, "Yes, that's the truth."
He Lianlian was so annoyed that she couldn't help but say, "It's the same situation everywhere. If my sister-in-law has a better place to go, then our Xu family is unlucky!"
She said this in a sarcastic tone, because she was sure that Gu Jin was already old and it was useless to make a fuss. Not to mention getting a divorce at her age, even if they did, which good family would be willing to take an old lady like her back?
Besides, whose house don't you serve?
Wen Tang and Chi Yue looked at each other, tsk, so sarcastic?
Wen Tang crossed his arms, glanced up and down at He Lianlian, and said sarcastically, "How can that be possible? It must be that my aunt is unlucky!"
"After all, this is a family where people hang themselves and the roof falls off, and when rats come, they have to run away in tears. Even so, my aunt only served for more than 30 years. If she didn't stay for 50 or 60 years, she would really not be blessed enough."
"My aunt also had poor eyesight when she was young, and she didn't know to look for someone so beautiful elsewhere."
"How could she know that old men in the city not only have wages, but also pensions!"
Chi Yue continued, "Old men in the city are not only rich, but also have few things to do. They will serve anyone they ask for. Why would you hang yourself on a crooked tree?"
Wen Tang continued, "Old men in the city can cook and wash dishes. They don't have to do anything after marrying a wife, let alone having her pour water for washing feet."
"People, the less they have, the worse their tempers become. They still think they are blessing others everywhere, tsk tsk."
"If this person meets a good old man and gets a hold of him, he can move into a building in the city overnight."
He Lianlian: "..."
She looked at Wen Tang and Zhong Meixian, her heart full of doubts. Could it be that her sister-in-law had fallen in love with the old man in the city?
She wanted to ask Zhong Meixian a few questions, but after Wen Tang and Chi Yue finished talking, they just pulled Zhong Meixian home, one on each side, and left her on the roadside.
Before Wen Tang left, he said to her, "Auntie, please go home soon. Don't go home too late. Your blessing of being a nanny has been taken away by someone else."
He Lianlian: "..."
She took two steps forward, trying to get back at the enemy, but...
When she saw Zhong Meixian being carried away by Wen Tang and Chi Yue, she thought about it and decided to give up.
But she had to spread the news she had just received!
He Lianlian hurried to Xu's house. Only Xu Ancheng's wife Zhang Fen was at home taking care of the children. When she saw He Lianlian, she called her "Second Aunt."
He Lianlian stepped into the yard, "Xiao Fen, you are at home, hurry up, something happened," He Lianlian said, patting her thigh and gasping.
Zhang Fen was holding the child and panicked when she heard this, "Second Aunt, what happened?"
"It's your mother-in-law..."
"Mother-in-law?"
"What's wrong with mom?" Zhang Fen became even more anxious.
"Oh, I'm afraid your mother-in-law is really going to separate from your father-in-law. I just ran into your aunt on the road, and they said... that your mother-in-law is going to find an old man in the city," He Lianlian finished speaking while panting.
"What?" Zhang Fen screamed, scaring the child in her arms to tears.
Then, while coaxing the child, she asked He Lianlian, "Second Aunt, I'm afraid you heard it wrongly?"
She couldn't believe it. "How is it possible?"
"Dad and Mom have lived their whole lives, and they have grandchildren. How could they still..." Zhang Fen felt that she couldn't even bring herself to say the words "looking for the old man in the city" because it was not a glorious thing to do.
He Lianlian waved her hands and said, "How could I have heard it wrong?"
"The newly married wife of your eldest uncle was there at the time. She and the wife of Jinfeng said it together. This person said he was bald-mouthed. How can two people be bald-mouthed at the same time?"
After He Lianlian said this, Zhang Fen was also unsure. She hugged the child and said, "I...I'll go tell An Cheng right now."
"Go, go and talk to them, or your mother-in-law will really pass away."
Zhang Fen carried the child and went to the field. Halfway there, she met Xu Ancheng and others who had just returned from a local place.
When Zhang Fen saw Xu Ancheng, her legs went weak and she almost fell onto the ridge of the field.
