There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 221

[Chapter 221, ashamed]

Songheyuan.

Old Madam Yan was sitting on the step, holding small scissors in her hands, carefully pruning several pots of green chrysanthemums and red plums on the table. .

Below, Yan Zhigao was a little restless, looking up at the old lady from time to time, feeling a little apprehensive.

Even though he has passed away now and is a fifth-rank magistrate, he still feels a lot of pressure when facing his silent and unsmiling old mother.

His mother was young and widowed, in order to bring up their brothers and sisters, her temper was not very good years ago, if she got angry, he would definitely not be able to resist it.

Mrs. Yan didn’t put down the scissors until she had finished trimming the potted plants on the table, looked at the eldest son sitting below, and asked slowly: “Send the child to my yard, is it yours?” Do you mean it, or Lin’s?”

Yan Zhigao felt relieved when his mother spoke up, and hurriedly said: “It was Lin who mentioned it, but my son thought about it carefully, and the children in the family usually have to go to class. Basically, I don’t have time to chat and laugh with my mother. I thought, it’s not boring for my mother to be alone in the yard

. Why don’t you put a child in my yard so that I can pass the time?”

Yan Zhi Gao smiled and nodded.

Old Madam Yan snorted coldly: “It is said that the child is the flesh that fell from the mother’s body, but your concubine’s room is really grand. The child has not been born for a few days, and the child is rushed to my old lady.”

Yan Zhigao heard the sarcasm in the old mother’s words, and had to defend his concubine: “She also wants to be filial, thinking that mother is bored by herself.” The

old lady Yan waved impatiently again and interrupted the eldest son: “Filial piety? I have three daughters-in-law who are just right, do I need a concubine from her to fulfill my filial piety? There are only two of us, mother and son, in the house, otherwise your wife and two sisters-in-law will have to spit on you after hearing this.”

“She sent the child here as a filial piety. When the third daughter-in-law gave birth to Wen Cheng last year, she didn’t send Wen Cheng here. Wouldn’t she be unfilial?”

Yan Zhigao was stunned, he really didn’t expect to go to the third room.

The old lady Yan cast a sideways glance at Da’er: “Also, which eye of yours can see that I’m bored?”

Yan Zhigao glanced at the bonsai that the old mother had filled the house, each pot was well cared for , a scene full of vitality.

Apparently, the old mother usually takes care of her a lot.

Just at this time, an abrupt voice sounded.

“Not boring, not boring, the old lady is not boring!”

Yan Zhigao’s face froze, and he turned to look at the parrot hanging in front of the window.

At this time, Mrs. Yan stood up with a smile, and walked towards the parrot with a plate of peeled sunflower seeds, grabbed a handful and put them on the parrot’s food plate.

Seeing that the parrot immediately lowered its head and kept pecking it up, it immediately smiled and said: “Sure enough, there is such a kind of pet as there is a master. That girl Daohua is a foodie, and you are also a foodie.”

Daohua was also worried about the old The wife was bored, so she sent the parrot here early in the morning, and let the parrot accompany the old lady to have fun.

“The old lady is also a foodie! She’s a good foodie, she’s in good shape, and she can eat whatever she likes.”

Seeing his mother being amused by the parrot in an instant, Yan Zhigao’s face became more and more embarrassing.

Old Madam Yan teased the parrot a few times, sat back on the bench again, took a sip of tea, and then said lightly: “I can guess how little your concubine’s little thoughts are. Let me ask you, Do you really think she’s just doing it out of filial piety?”

Yan Zhigao moved his lips and wanted to say something, but he couldn’t say it when he reached his mouth.

Of course, he knew some of Lin’s thoughts, but when he saw her lying weakly on the bed after giving birth, looking at him with pleading eyes, he couldn’t refuse.

Mrs. Yan sneered: “I don’t want to say anything more about how you treat the concubine’s room. However, Zhigao, the officialdom is dangerous, but this backyard house may not be very peaceful. Don’t mess with it for your selfishness. The house is restless.”

“It’s fine if Mrs. Lin behaves properly, but she has a big heart. She not only wants your favor, but also peeps at Mrs. Li’s status. Don’t tell me that you have nothing to do with it.” I noticed.”

Yan Zhigao frowned, remained silent for a while, and finally got up and bent over, “Mother, my son is wrong!”

Old lady Yan stared at Da’er: “I hope you really know your mistake, the Yan family is now You are not the only one who deserves the credit for everything, so don’t let people feel cold.”

“Also, you have to know that the children in the family are getting older every day, and they will think more and more. You have to go too far, as long as It will make their brothers and sisters more and more alienated.”

“They are not from the same mother, so don’t expect the children to be really close and love each other.”

“This person has to be in the right position. Don’t let Wen Bin and Yi Shuang Have thoughts that you shouldn’t have.”

“People, the most taboo is to dream of things that don’t belong to you. Once you have this kind of thoughts, you will end up harming others and yourself.”

Yan Zhigao’s face became serious. He really didn’t think too thoroughly about it.

Mrs. Yan continued: “By the way, I heard that Mrs. Lin gave birth prematurely because she pushed Mrs. Liu first, and Mrs. Liu didn’t do anything, so she fell to the ground by herself.”

Yan Zhigao immediately She wanted to defend Mrs. Lin, but Mrs. Yan didn’t want to listen to him, she just said it to herself.

“In the future, let’s leave it to Mrs. Li to handle the affairs of the backyard. You are a big man, and you still know too little about women’s twists and turns. You are easily confused by their delicate appearance. You don’t know that some women initiate ruthless actions. Come on, that can do anything.”

“Mr. Li is gentle, respectful and thrifty. Even though she cares more about her children, she is not a cruel person. I can rest assured that you will take care of the backyard with her.” You should have some trust in her, too.”

Yan Zhigao was silent for a moment, then bent over and said, “My son will obey his mother’s order.” After

talking a long way, Mrs. Yan was a little tired, and waved her hand: “Go down.”

“Ma’am, you should have a good rest! ”

Yan Zhigao turned and left, just as he stepped out of the room, he heard the voice of the old lady.

“In my life, I have exhausted my efforts to bring up their four brothers and sisters. It can be said that I have always lived for them. Now that they have married and established businesses one by one, I can be regarded as worthy of their dead father and the ancestors of the Yan family. ”

It’s thanks to that girl Daohua that I can still live like this. I also want to live as I like in these extra days. Seeing that my family is getting better and better, but this trouble There are more things going on.”

Mama Sun’s voice.

“Old lady, isn’t there a lady in charge of the house here? You, just enjoy yourself with peace of mind.” The

old lady: “Mr. Li is a good person, and she is also filial. I never worry about the troubles at home, and give me all the basic necessities of life .” It was well arranged, but it was my son who bothered me, and I really owed them in my previous life.”

“It’s not enough for me to raise the four of them, and I also put my own children in my place. I am them. Don’t you know that raising a child takes so much energy and effort? You think all children are as lovable as Daohua, it’s because I’m so comfortable, you’re making me feel uncomfortable.”

Listen At these words, Yan Zhigao left as if he had been struck by lightning, so ashamed that he ran away.

He was so unfilial, he ran to find his mother as soon as he was instigated by Lin, and didn’t think about whether his mother needed his so-called filial piety at all.
