There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 14
[Chapter 14, The eldest daughter]
“Daughter-in-law, pay respects to mother, mother has worked hard all the way!”
After Mrs. Yan helped Yan Zhigao up, Mrs. Li quickly let go of the rice flowers, wiped away the tears on her face, and made a ‘plop’ Kneeling down in front of Mrs. Yan, the voice was no lower than Yan Zhigao’s kneeling.
Hearing this, Daohua frowned fiercely.
“Okay, okay, thank you for being by Zhigao’s side all these years, helping him with housework, being considerate in everything, thank you for your hard work.” Mrs. Yan grabbed Mrs. Li’s hand and quickly helped her up.
For the eldest daughter-in-law, she is very satisfied.
Gentle and demure, dignified and generous, and most importantly, considerate and tolerant.
Although she is a businesswoman, she manages the housework tightly and orderly, so she has nothing to say.
Mrs. Li was very moved by Mrs. Yan’s approval. The tears she had just hid came out again, and she choked up and said, “Mother, these are what a daughter-in-law should do.”
Mrs. Yan was about to say something, but , another woman knelt down.
“Mother, the second daughter-in-law greets you!”
Old Madam Yan didn’t let go of Mrs. Li’s hand, looked at the woman kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile: “It’s the second daughter-in-law, get up quickly, don’t kneel down. Seeing
that Mrs. Yan did not help her up with her own hands like she did to Li, Mrs. Sun quickly flashed a trace of dissatisfaction in her eyes, but soon smiled again, stood up by herself, and faced a few people gathered not far away. The young boys and girls waved: “Wenjie, Yihuan, Yile, what are you still doing there, why don’t you hurry up and visit your grandmother?”
Yan Zhigao shook his head and said, “Don’t worry, mother hurry up!” After a long journey, I must be tired, so I will go to the backyard to wash and rest, and then it will not be too late to see my grandchildren.”
Sun’s face paused, and then he smiled: “I didn’t think carefully, it’s all my fault Wen Jie said that he wanted to see grandma when he saw the sky, but when I was happy, I lost my sense of proportion, I should wash up and rest first.”
Mrs. Yan smiled and waved her hands: “The old lady is not very tired. It is Wen Tao who is tired. I walked all the way with him behind my back.” Shi.
“Third daughter-in-law, what are you doing standing there? I just came to see your son.” This Wu family is virtuous, but she is too honest. When she arrived, she didn’t say hello.
Look at the second daughter-in-law, she can talk a lot.
Mrs. Wu came over with a shy smile: “Mother, I’m thinking that you haven’t seen your eldest brother and sister-in-law for a long time, so I want you to talk more.”
Mrs. Yan said angrily: “They want to talk to me . Talk, you don’t want to?”
Wu waved her hands again and again: “No, I don’t.”
Seeing the third aunt who was at a loss, Daohua, who was in the background, felt a little helpless, and walked over with a smile, regardless of whether others disliked her or not. Disgusted, she took Wu Shi’s arm: “Aunt San, is grandma joking with you?”
Hearing what Dao Hua said, Wu Shi immediately relaxed, looked at Dao Hua lovingly, and saw that her face was covered with dirt, Immediately took out a handkerchief to wipe her, and said distressedly: “Poor
Daohua, have you suffered a lot on this journey?” By the side, but being ignored by his own mother, how sad should it be?
In fact, Yan Wentao is grinning silly at the moment.
Mother likes Daohua, and he likes it too. Isn’t it right to treat her well?
At this time, Yan Zhigao turned his attention to his eldest daughter.
Uh. A little beggar.
He’s 9 years old, but he’s in good shape. As for the others, I haven’t seen it yet.
Mrs. Li was also looking at Daohua, but her attention was more on Daohua’s arm holding Wu’s. Seeing her so close to Wu, she felt a little sour.
The daughter is a little strange to her!
Seeing Mrs. Wu approaching Daohua, Mrs. Yan was also very happy, but she stared at Daohua and said, “You girl, your own mother is beside you, and you are still going to rob your third brother’s mother just like when you were in Yan’s Village. Give it back as soon as possible.”
Daohua pouted: “Grandmother, your partiality is too obvious!”
Mrs. Yan laughed a few times, then looked at Yan Zhigao and Mrs. Li: “I can give this girl You brought it here, and you have to take good care of her in the future.” There was disgust on her face, but her tone couldn’t hide her love.
Yan Zhigao and Mrs. Li smiled and said yes again and again.
The mother loves the eldest daughter, and they are also happy in their hearts.
“Mother, let’s go in!”
“Okay!”
Mrs. Yan was supported by Yan Zhigao and his wife into the backyard of the county office.
When passing through the gate of the county government, Yan Zhigao saw Aunt Lin and her two children. Yan Zhigao wanted to introduce them to Mrs. Yan, but the old lady didn’t even look at them and just walked past.
Daohua, who was a step behind, saw this situation in her eyes, and the corner of her mouth slightly curved.
Entering the backyard of the county government office, Mrs. Li helped the old lady Yan to walk in, while turning her head to look at Daohua: “Daohua, mother asked the servant girl to take you to the main courtyard to wash, and when you are done washing, you can come to the old lady’s yard. ”
It stands to reason that since my daughter has just arrived, she, as a mother, should be by her side at all times, but the mother-in-law is also just here, so she must serve her personally, otherwise she will lose her duty as a daughter-in-law.
Mrs. Yan originally wanted her eldest daughter-in-law to take care of her granddaughter, but when she saw the second and third daughter-in-laws following behind her, she still didn’t speak after thinking about it.
This is not the Yan Family Village. You can no longer do things as you please. Even if you don’t like some things, you have to endure them.
Daohua didn’t think much of it, and soon saw a handsome maid wearing double buns, looking seventeen or eighteen years old, walking towards her with a smile, walked up to her, and bowed her knees: “Pingtong has seen Big girl!” Daohua puffed
out her chest and nodded calmly, “Yeah.”
Traveling through ancient times for 9 years, I was greeted for the first time. Although I didn’t show it on the surface, I was still a little nervous.
She knew very well that this was ancient times, and the ancients paid special attention to etiquette and rules. She didn’t want to make jokes and be ridiculed behind her back as soon as she came here.
Pingtong got up, even though Daohua’s smell was very pungent at the moment, her expression did not change at all, and she said with a smile: “Miss, I will take you to the main courtyard.”
Daohua looked at Old Madam Yan and the others: “Grandmother , Father, Mother, Second Aunt, Third Aunt, Daohua is going to wash up first, and I will come to see the elders later.”
Mrs. Yan nodded with a smile, and waved her hand, signaling that she could leave.
Seeing that Daohua handled everything properly, Yan Zhigao and Mrs. Li looked at each other silently, and they both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
For the eldest daughter, they have a sense of guilt.
She was raised in the countryside since she was a child, and she didn’t learn the rules and etiquette in detail. There are many people in the county government, and there are inevitably a few who love to talk. They don’t want their eldest daughter to become a talking point in other people’s mouths.
After Daohua left, Yan Wentao was taken away by a servant, while the others accompanied Mrs. Yan to the Songhe Courtyard prepared for her.
Mrs. Li: “Mother, this is the yard specially prepared by the master for you. You can live in it first. If you are not used to it, we will change it.”
Mrs. Yan shook her head: “It doesn’t need to be so expensive. My wife is alone. Where can I live?” No? There’s no need to exchange it.”
Yan Zhigao smiled and said: “Mother has worked hard for most of her life, and my son wants to be filial.”
Old lady Yan: “You are all good, it is considered filial. Yes Now, Daohua, you guys have to be more careful, if you let me know that you have wronged her, I will not obey.”
Hearing this, the smile on Madam Li’s face immediately increased.
Mrs. Sun on the side interjected with a smile: “Mother, Daohua is the daughter of the eldest brother and sister-in-law, who can wrong her?”
Mrs. Yan: “It’s best to be like this.” with a warning.
Yan Zhigao was looked at inexplicably, he also loved his eldest daughter very much, okay?
Mrs. Sun saw it clearly from the side, and was a little surprised at the old lady’s love for Daohua, pretending to be jealous and said: “Mother really loves Daohua, two of the three sentences cannot be separated from her.” The
old lady Yan took it for granted “Daohua is the eldest daughter of the Yan family, so I naturally want to love her more!”
The first time we met, Mrs. Yan made no secret of her preference for Daohua.
In this regard, everyone in the Yan family has some concerns in their hearts.
