"Big tree, can you take me over there sometime? I'll find my way."
"After I clean up, I'll invite everyone over to have a meal and get to know the place."
That's right, the youngest son was still very thoughtful in doing things, and the old woman was relieved. She was afraid that she would not be able to find a place to complain in the future, and the servants in the village would just give her a perfunctory response.
"Can I come over to help you pack your things tomorrow?" In consideration of the fact that so many things had been sent, Old Sun was willing to lend a helping hand.
"No need. There are many servants at home. Just live your life peacefully. Where did you go just now?"
"Oh, I was chatting with some old sisters." Thinking of the content of the conversation just now, Old Sun shuddered. She shouldn't have let it slip, right? No?
Her biggest flaw is that she is too honest. She doesn't like to lie to anyone, but her boss always causes her to get into trouble and she can't tell the truth to anyone.
"You continue chatting. I'm leaving first. I just came to deliver something."
"Why don't you sit for a while? Come to my place for lunch. Huang's cooking is pretty good. Your nephews all say it's better than your eldest and second sisters-in-law's." Old Sun covered her mouth, her eyes rolling around. She was such a big mouth, but her grandsons came to her place for free meals but she didn't let Xiaoyu and Lihua come to eat. Would her third son be unhappy? Would he?
The only one she can rely on now is her youngest son.
"No, I don't want to eat anymore. I have to clean up some things and I have to send the last batch of food to my family soon. I'm leaving now."
After the people left, Old Sun slapped herself twice and said, "Why can't I keep my mouth shut?"
Huang was speechless. The old lady was not a bad person. They had the same food and lodging here. She had never abused her, but would find fault with her occasionally. Although she would scold her grandsons every day for eating and drinking with her, she would never drive them away.
The only thing that's not nice is her mouth. She loves to gossip. Every day she gets together with a few old ladies in the village to dig up other people's embarrassing stories. She thinks this is not nice and has tried to persuade the old ladies, but she said that she has nothing else to do every day. With this little interest, what else can she do besides gossiping?
Huang recalled what she had said today about the eldest daughter of the eldest master. She almost covered her mouth at that time. She also knew about this. The old lady chatted with her every night. In just a short period of time, she knew almost all the big and small things in the family over the past few decades, from the time she married into the Zhao family to the death of the old master.
Family disgrace should not be made public, especially such a big thing. Huang was worried. The old ladies who lived with the old lady seemed to be smiling on the surface, but in fact, they did not get along well with her. Now that they had caught the eldest lady's handle, I wonder how they will publicize it!
The old lady herself said that it was one of them who told the old man about the eldest daughter becoming a concubine, and the old man was furious. How could she not learn from such a big thing and continue to play with them?
Are these people someone you can get along with?
"Mom, we will be back during the winter, so don't take these things with you." Zhao Xiaoyu stopped Song from packing the quilts and thick clothes.
"Aren't we living in both places? I thought I'd take half of it with me so I don't have to buy any more. Xiaoyu, even though we're living in a poor situation now, we still have to save money. It's a huge expense to support so many people every day."
