Chapter 353: The Bride's Escape Plan (3)
Early in the morning, Aunt Si woke up Si Dawa who was lying on the kang.
"Mom, it's still early." Si Dawa hugged the quilt tightly and didn't want to let go. He didn't even want to open his eyes when he spoke.
"What do you mean early? Today is your sister's wedding." Aunt Si simply pulled up her son's quilt. Unexpectedly, she saw a big bulge under his belly. There was no extra expression on his old gray face, but his tone of voice was a little teasing, "Son, if you stay in bed again, the wife in your dream will fly away."
"Xueyan, Xueyan..." Si Dawa hurriedly got up.
Aunt Si didn't worry at all that her daughter would run away. Even if others would, her daughter wouldn't. Because her daughter had been the most obedient and filial since she was a child. Si Shiyi never disobeyed a word she said to Si Dawa.
Besides, marrying into the Wei family as a daughter-in-law was no different from being at home. She naturally thought that her daughter would not have much resistance in her heart.
She walked out of the house and took a look around. She didn't see Shi Yi. She was a little panicked and shouted outside, "Shi Yi, where are you?"
"Mom, I'm in the pigpen at the back. We'll leave soon. I'm afraid the piglets won't be full and make trouble." Shi Yi slammed the melon ladle used to scoop manure into the wooden barrel and lifted it up with his elbow.
"Hey, kid, you're going to get married, why are you still working? Don't make yourself smelly. After all, you're getting married, and it's not nice to be smelly." Aunt Si snatched the melon ladle from her hand and poured it down. It was rare for her to be so considerate to her. On weekdays, the original owner did all the work such as feeding pigs, cutting grass and chopping firewood.
"Mom, let me do it. Don't worry, I won't run away. My brother hasn't gotten married yet." Shi Yi took the melon ladle again on his red and wrinkled face, blinking his big eyes, which made people trust him for no reason.
In fact, they lived in the same village, and she would be caught by the villagers even if she ran away. After all, she was a money-loser in the family. Who would care about such a life?
"Well. Then you hurry up and finish feeding her and come out to clean up." Aunt Si turned a corner and went to the toilet without any suspicion. Shi Yi
pressed the melon scoop into the slop in the bucket again, and the last bit of hope for his mother disappeared in his eyes.
Not long after Aunt Si finished cleaning up Shi Yi, the people from the Wei family came to pick up the bride.
Because they were afraid of bad luck, not many people came, just a few relatives of the Wei family. There were a few guests from the Si family, but when they saw the people from the Wei family coming, they continued to crack melon seeds and chat, and no one went up to talk.
"Let's go." Aunt Si and Wei Yunzhu exchanged glances and patted Shi Yi on the back, but she didn't expect Shi Yi to turn around and talk to her:
"Mother, a daughter who is married is like water spilled out. I can't honor you in the future."
"Yeah." Aunt Si was now worried about her son's marriage and didn't understand the deep meaning of her words at all.
"Then my daughter is gone." Shi Yi took the initiative to cover her red veil, and was led by her brother Si Dawa to leave the house step by step.
Wei Xueyan stood at the door of her house, watching her sister-in-law covered with a red veil walking towards her step by step, and gritted her teeth.
She wanted to run away, but she sneaked out of her aunt's house last night and found that the snow was piled up half a person high. It was late at night. If she froze to death in the snow, it would be a sin. So she went back to the kang. This morning, she was persuaded by her aunt's family to come here. What
her aunt said was actually reasonable. Although Si Dawa's legs were a little disabled, he could at least drive a tractor to earn money. Besides, there was only an old mother in the family. If she married into the family, as long as she established her dignity, separated from the old woman, and held the money earned by Si Dawa in her own hands, it would be very comfortable.
But she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and even took all this out on Si Shiyi, her future sister-in-law. She thought, if Si Shiyi had not wanted to marry her own brother, she would not have to marry into the Si family.
Maybe she knew in her heart that her family was in the wrong, so she blamed Shiyi without thinking carefully, what was there about her dead brother that was worthy of a young girl marrying.
"The baby is here, come into the house and warm up, be careful not to catch a cold." Aunt Wei hurriedly welcomed her daughter-in-law into the house.
Wei Yunzhu wanted to take this opportunity to hold Shi Yi's hand, but was caught by his daughter Wei Xueyan. She laughed a few times and said, "Xueyan, your sister-in-law is not familiar with the situation at home. You can take her in."
Wei Xueyan did not notice her father's secret thoughts. She thought that he, the father-in-law, wanted to please Si Shiyi, the daughter-in-law. She immediately lost her good face and refused, "I don't want it."
"Why are you so disobedient, child!" Aunt Wei said to her daughter, but glared at her husband, took the initiative to help Shi Yi walk into the house. Shi Yi,
who was covered by the red veil, showed sarcasm on his face. When the original owner just married into this family, she also treated this mother-in-law as her mother wholeheartedly, so she told her about the discomfort on the wedding night without hiding it. Who would have thought that she quickly covered the original owner's mouth and asked the original owner not to say such nonsense again. Now think about it, this mother-in-law is just sweet on the outside but bitter on the inside. I'm afraid she already knew the inside story.
While the Wei family was busy, a madman took advantage of the chaos to sneak into Shi Yi's bridal chamber and hid under the bed.
After a while, Shi Yi was also brought in by Aunt Wei.
"Mom, why do you want to feed her chicken? I'm afraid she hasn't eaten so much chicken at home." Wei Xueyan was particularly dissatisfied with her mother for giving Shi Yi so much chicken, and she used chopsticks to scrape off a few large pieces.
"Xueyan, be obedient, she is your sister-in-law now. Don't yell in the future." Aunt Wei didn't pick up the scraped chicken, but put a few slices of pork head on it.
"Mom, when I got married, I didn't know if I could eat meat at his house." Wei Xueyan was going to scrape off the meat with chopsticks again.
Aunt Wei put the bowl aside, grabbed her hand, and said, "You married into the Si family, Si Dawa is so good at making money, will you have no chicken to eat?"
"Mom..." Wei Xueyan's face turned red, and she stammered, "What should I do if Si Dawa doesn't listen to me and doesn't treat me well?"
"This is what you have to learn. Mom has many ways to teach you." Aunt Wei handed her the bowl and gestured, "Give it to your sister-in-law."
Wei Xueyan was about to refuse, but was stopped by Aunt Wei's words, "Do you still want to learn how to control your husband?"
She nodded reluctantly and walked towards Shi Yi's wedding room with the bowl in her hand.
Pushing open the door, she glanced unconsciously under Shi Yi's bed, her eyes full of brilliance.
