Su Zhen listened and blamed herself deeply, thinking that she, as the eldest sister-in-law, was not thoughtful enough.
"Grandma, I'm going to bring the quilt back from the thatched hut now, unwrap it, wash the quilt cover, and dry it over a fire today. They need to sleep on the same bed tonight."
Lu Huanying couldn't wait any longer: "Yes, yes, yes, then go and hug him quickly."
He turned around and took Zheng Mudan's hand: "Good girl, if you didn't remind me, I would be confused!"
"You are so confused. There have been a lot of things going on at home recently!" Zheng Mudan is very good at speaking.
"Why haven't you come to teach Yuzhu how to write numbers in the past two days?" The old lady suddenly remembered this.
Zheng Mudan told the truth: "It's almost the New Year, I went back to my parents' home, and grandma, now that Zhentang is here, how dare I teach Yuzhu, that's like showing off my sword in front of Guan Gong, let Zhentang teach her."
"Oh, you have such a talkative little mouth." The old lady was amused and laughed.
At the same time, Shi Zhentang, who was processing prey in the yard, saw his sister-in-law enter his thatched hut. He quickly took out the quilt and returned to the hut.
“…”
He had several big questions in his mind.
It's incomprehensible. Why is he holding his quilt for no reason? He doesn't have to bring it into the house to dry it, right?
But men are not careful and don't have time to think so much. What's important is to do the right thing, so let him be.
Zheng Mudan in the room helped Su Zhen to skillfully remove the quilt and pillowcases, including the bed sheets, fold them, put them in a wooden basin, and take them to the river to wash.
After washing for an hour, Zheng Mudan was still worried that there were too many to dry, so she took the sheets and pillowcases back to help dry them and would bring them over later.
With their help, half of the work is done.
What Lu Huanying is most worried about at the moment is Zhentang’s stubborn temper. It is still a question whether he will agree to sleep with her now.
The old lady began to worry about this matter and could no longer stay in the house. She walked outside all day long with her crutches, chatting with people whenever she had time.
Su Zhen in the small house looked out the window, feeling a little amused and helpless.
I was originally hoping that the old lady's task today would be to dry the quilt inside and outside, well, now it seems that she is the one who should dry it!
Not long after, Tian Yuzhu woke up and saw her sister-in-law sitting alone in front of the fire, warming herself in the quilt. She had nothing to do, so she went to help.
It’s already the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, so I have to start washing the quilt.
Su Zhen saw the silly girl pulling the strings seriously and couldn't help but smile: "Yuzhu, remember what my sister-in-law said. We must listen to Zhentang at all times. He is your man. You must do whatever he tells you to do. Do you understand?"
Tian Yuzhu thought for a moment: "What if he wants me to do something wrong?"
"Don't worry, Zhentang loves you so much that he won't let you do anything wrong."
"Well, okay!"
At the same time, someone in the yard outside the house started to play tricks.
Shi Xiaoli, who no longer had to go to the educated youth camp for the past two days, walked around the yard several times, which annoyed Shi Weiqiang. He started to scold her, "You're just sitting around eating and waiting to die. Why don't you just sweep the snow? Why are you just hanging around there?"
Shi Xiaoli rolled her eyes and said, "Grandma, my third brother scolded you."
Shi Weiqiang frowned: "..."
The damn girl was so mean that I couldn't help but grab a handful of snow and throw it at her.
As for Lu Huanying, she was standing outside the courtyard gate talking to the villagers passing by and ignored them.
Shi Xiaoli dodged the snow thrown by Shi Weiqiang, walked up to them with a smile and said flatteringly: "Second brother, look at you now that Third Brother is beating me up, you don't even help. You have become Second Brother."
Shi Zhentang used the knife in his hand to cut the deer meat perfectly and ignored her.
"Second brother." Shi Xiaoli pouted dissatisfiedly: "Isn't it okay if I'm wrong? I shouldn't have quarreled with Tian Yuzhu. Do you know why? Because I think you can marry someone better, not her, so I don't like her. Second brother, I'm doing this for your own good."
"Then don't bother with it. Thank you for your kindness." Shi Zhentang didn't even raise his head.
Shi Xiaoli continued to nag: "Now it's good, I'm the one who got beaten, and I'm the one who lost my teeth. Can't you take me to the city to get a tooth fixed for the sake of our brother and sister?"
"You don't know that I don't even dare to smile when I go to the educated youth camp now. I cover my face with a scarf all day long. But now that the New Year is over and spring has arrived, how can I still cover my face with that scarf? I'll be so hot I'll die."
Puff!
Shi Xiaoli's words made Shi Weiqiang laugh, and he really couldn't help it.
"If you laugh again," Shi Xiaoli was so angry that her face turned blue.
"Alright." Shi Zhentang finally raised his eyes and looked at the other person. "Don't come to me about the dental implants. You were the ones who provoked Yuzhu in the first place. In my opinion, you called her a fool so many times, and she only knocked out one of your teeth. You're still making a profit, right? Stop nagging me. If you really want to get dental implants, ask your mother to take you. She has the money."
What are you talking about?
Shi Xiaoli was so angry that her face turned pale.
What made her even more angry was that Shi Weiqiang was still smiling.
"Second brother, you have changed. You have forgotten your sister now that you have a wife." Shi Xiaoli was angry and anxious, tears welling up in her eyes. Asking her mother Yang Dahua to pay for dental implants was like asking her to die.
This time, Shi Zhentang's voice was a bit colder: "If you treated me like a brother and knew how to respect me a little bit, you wouldn't bully my wife like that. Why are you trying to establish a brother-sister relationship with me now?"
Yes, that's what he was going to say.
From childhood to adulthood, he has always taken care of Shi Xiaoli like his own sister and would bring her gifts during festivals.
But what is the result?
Even if she had been a little nicer to her grandmother, their relationship wouldn't have gotten to where it is today. Shi Zhentang's heart hadn't become so cold overnight.
Shi Xiaoli was shocked after hearing this, as if she couldn't understand why her second brother had become like this: "Second brother, you really have changed."
Shi Weiqiang was not idle, and he made a brilliant assist: "Second brother has changed. He is not so easy to fool now, right?"
"you………"
Shi Xiaoli gritted her teeth and turned to leave, but she was still unwilling to do so: "Second brother, what do you want in exchange for me taking you to get dental implants? Don't forget that my teeth were knocked out by Tian Yuzhu."
Until now, she was still stubborn and didn't want to call her second sister-in-law.
She even almost called him a fool.
Shi Zhentang said coldly: "Unless your second sister-in-law agrees, forget it."
So there is no hope?
Shi Xiaoli's expression immediately changed, and she burst into tears like a child: "Well, second brother, since you guys have hunted so many prey, can you give us a pheasant in our big house? You can make the decision on this, right?"
These words almost made Shi Weiqiang fall down. After changing his perspective, he finally saw clearly what kind of person his sister was.
Totally shameless.
I still want to talk back to my second brother!
Fortunately, Shi Zhentang didn't give her any chance at all: "You are right. I can't make the decision on this matter. Yuzhu will also get a share of the prey unless she agrees to give it to her."
