Chapter 14 Fired squid and cheap dad

(Thank you Xia Chuan for your PK vote, and please continue to support me. I recommend collecting Shenma, they are all good things!)

Arriving at the door of Ouyang's house, no matter how stupid I am, I know that I am here to pay New Year's greetings.

"But, is this necessary? Will people think we are here to ask for rewards?"

Madam Hui glared at her daughter, "Even if it's the Chinese New Year, no one would be stingy about this. Let's go in and say a few lucky words to her old lady and third wife. Now they are half of our bosses, so we should go there.

of."

Okay. Thinking about this, people at this time paid more attention to human relations and sophistication, so Nianfu came in.

Still walking into the kitchen through a side door, she happened to meet Mrs. Liu. She was an honest person. Madam Hui smiled and walked up to her to greet her with New Year greetings. Then she said she wanted to visit the old lady and the third wife. Suddenly, Mrs. Liu looked a little unnatural.

, I wanted to speak again, but I saw Aunt Yu leading a group of people over, talking and laughing.

When he saw their mother and daughter, he stopped immediately, "Hey, the Mu family's wife is here too? Are you here to pay New Year's greetings to my wife? It just so happens that my wife has some free time right now, so why don't I take you there."

Why is she so attentive? Nianfu Han's hair immediately stood up, but at this time he had to agree, so he secretly looked at Huiniang, signaled her to be careful, and followed Aunt Yu. No one noticed that she was always sarcastic.

Sister-in-law Zou rarely kept a low profile and stayed away.

Soon the third wife got the message and snorted coldly, "They still dare to come? Let them come in!"

Aunt Yu was gloating in her belly, waiting for a good show.

Mother Hui and her daughter didn't know what had happened, so they saluted the third wife as usual and said auspicious words. The third wife also had a smile on her face, and after a few polite words, she began to talk about the difficulties in housework.

"... From the outside, our family looks good, but who knows the difficulties involved? They say that there is a big man working as an official outside, but after all, the mountains are high and the rivers are far away, and we can't take care of him. During the Chinese New Year, I don't know how many relatives and friends come here.

I went there, everyone wanted to help me, and the money was just flowing like water, which made me afraid to go out. But just like this, there was no guarantee that people wouldn't come to my door. I couldn't help it, so I had no choice but to be cruel.

Sell ​​a few houses and my family will go out, so as not to suffer poverty with us."

That's right, if you can't hear it anymore, you're really an idiot.

Nianfu was still wondering where he had offended the third wife, but Madam Hui had already spoken, "I came here today, although it was to pay New Year's greetings, but I actually had some fun in it. We have troubled the house for too long, and from now on...

Sorry to come again."

The third wife hurriedly asked, "What are you talking about? Your old man is not well yet. No matter how difficult our family is, we will not stand by and watch when the villagers are in trouble. Just stay here with peace of mind."

The more polite she was, the more Hui Niang insisted on leaving. After a few rounds, the third wife said with a fake smile, "Since everyone has their own ambitions, it's not easy to force them to stay. It's hard to find a job during the Chinese New Year, so I'll let someone

Go to the accounting office and collect one month's wages for you."

Of course Huiniang refused to take this money. As she was declining, Nianfu suddenly interrupted, "Mrs., you are kind, mother, why don't we accept it? If Mr. Wu still wants to eat that sauce, he can come to us."

.”

After thinking about it, Nianfu realized that apart from giving away two jars of soy sauce yesterday, there was nothing else that would offend the third wife, so he deliberately brought up this topic.

You can fire her if you want, but if you don't understand the situation, you'll be depressed to death!

Hearing this, the third wife finally showed some displeasure, raised her eyebrows and said, "Why are you embarrassed? After all, Mr. Shu is the eldest young master's husband. If anything happens to Sister Mu, she can just go directly to the eldest young master."

Listening to her words about gun and stick, Nianfu was finally sure that those two jars must have caused trouble! She didn't know exactly what caused the trouble, but ten of them were dirty and could not be traced to Sister Zou.

"How can we go find the eldest young master in the house if there is no intimacy between men and women? Even if I sent Jiang here yesterday, I asked Sister Zou to go back and report to my wife, and I didn't leave it to anyone else."

Aunt Yu's heart skipped a beat, why did this matter get involved with Aunt Zou again?

Yesterday, the eldest young master took the sauce sent by Nian Fu and went to the Wu family to offer treasures. When he came back, he was overjoyed, which made the third wife very angry. Then he got angry and said that the eldest young master broke the rules by doing favors in private, and he didn't take it with him.

The second young master ended up in a big and unhappy situation. In the end, he forced the old lady to punish the eldest young master to copy the house rules on New Year's Eve, and then forced him to take the second young master to pay Mr. Wu a New Year's greeting early in the morning.

Give up.

Aunt Yu thought at first that Nian Fu had received some favors from the young master, so she gave the sauce to him. But if she said she gave it to Aunt Zou first, wouldn't it be from the kitchen again?

The third wife became confused and said, "You really didn't deliver the sauce from the eldest master's place?"

Nian Fu looked innocent, "I don't even know what the eldest young master looks like, how can I tell him that I know? My wife doesn't believe me. Please call Aunt Zou to confront me. Is the two jars of sauce given to her?

In the kitchen? Chuntao also heard it at that time. If not, Mrs. Ren will punish you!"

The third wife's face softened for a moment, but she was a little embarrassed to speak. After all, she had just said that her family was in a difficult situation and that she wanted to drive them away, and it would be too shameful to go back on her words now. After thinking about it, she had to save herself, "Then

Maybe the servant didn't explain it clearly and I misunderstood it."

"It's okay. Mrs. Meng has been taking care of me for so long, so I just need to explain it clearly. Mom, it's time for us to say goodbye, right?" Nianfu is also very tough. You are so narrow-minded that you fire people at every turn, so there is no need for her to stay here shamelessly.

Served.

Madam Hui also meant the same thing, she said a few polite words, turned around and left with her daughter, without any hesitation at all.

Aunt Yu screamed in her heart that it was bad, and when she turned around, she saw the third wife having an attack, "What on earth is going on? Call Aunt Zou!"

I ordered someone to tell Mrs. Zou, how could she dare to come? But Aunt Yu had made up her mind this time and would not take the blame for her again.

"Go and have a good life, madam. If you don't go, will you be able to hide for the rest of your life?"

Sister-in-law Zou had no choice but to go, lie and say that she had collected the sauce and went to do other things, and then forgot about it.

The third wife sneered again and again, "I didn't know that you are such a capable person. You have already eaten the New Year's Eve meal, and you can still be so busy. In this case, I don't dare to trouble you too much. Just go home and do your work."

Go!"

Aunt Zou's face suddenly turned pale. She originally wanted to see a joke about Nianfu, but she shot herself in the foot. Aunt Yu didn't dare to say anything to help, so she had no choice but to humiliate and pack up her bags and leave.

After she was far away from Ouyang's house, Madam Hui asked urgently, "We've already left, why did you drag out Aunt Zou again? Did you do it on purpose?"

Nian Fu said angrily, "Of course! She is the worst, she has framed us several times, and she is leaving now. How long will it take if she doesn't take revenge?"

Huiniang chuckled, "She is indeed my daughter! What do you think the third wife will do with her?"

"Slap her in the face, or kneel down for a long time. It's best to drive her away, so that you can vent your anger!"

"That's it!" The mother and daughter were happy for a long time, and Hui Niang suddenly sighed, "It's my fault, I shouldn't have looked for this way in the first place. The Ouyang family is good, and working in their family is easier than working outside.

, the wages are still high. But mother is really afraid that you are used to being a slave, and your bones will become soft."

Nianfu really didn't expect that his mother would have such worries, and couldn't help but ask, "Who is willing to look at people's looks and be their maid when they have enough to eat and nothing to do?"

Hui Niang said, "Seriously speaking, being a slave of a wealthy family is much better than living a humble life like the rest of us. Especially, your surname is Mu."

She smiled apologetically at her daughter, "Although your father is not here, I always want to guard something for him. He used to say something, a scholar cannot be killed but cannot be humiliated. Mother didn't quite understand it, but she remembered it.

Come down. In short, it seems that it means that you can't be a servant for others. Well, if he knew that I made his daughter a fire girl for others, he might not feel so distressed."

Seeing the sparkle in her eyes, Nian Fu's heart softened suddenly. He held her arm and said, "Mom, it's not your fault. It's just that you were forced to do it for a moment. There's nothing you can do about it. If dad knew,

You'll understand. Anyway, we didn't sell ourselves, and we're leaving now, so it's okay not to mention it. Why don't you tell me about dad, what kind of person is he?"

Huiniang's face turned red, with a rare shyness, but she also had pride that could not be concealed, "He is a very good person! Your father has read many books and always speaks in four-character words, but

So knowledgeable!"

Then, by the time he got home, Nianfu had basically figured out his father's basic condition.

Mu Shaoqin, a native of the capital, was a son of an official. He was very handsome, but his circumstances were miserable.

It is said that he was the youngest son in the family and was very pampered. However, when soldiers and bandits broke out, his family was destroyed. He escaped in a panic and relied on pawning his belongings to survive. By the time he met the Shi family, they were already at the end of their rope and almost couldn't survive.

.

By chance, Hui Niang kindly helped him. Then, the Shi family had a free long-term employee.

Later, I found that this young man had a good character. Although he came from a wealthy family, he was not arrogant. He risked his life to protect Huiniang several times during the war. The two elders of the Shi family saw the love between the two and simply let them get married. It was convenient for them on the road.

, and secondly, it can be regarded as a source of support for my daughter.

When Huiniang was pregnant for the first time, she heard that the situation in the capital had calmed down, so Mu Shaoqin wanted to go back to look for her lost relatives. Although she was worried, Huiniang packed her bags and sent her away in a reasonable manner. But Mu Shaoqin had just left not long ago.

, the war broke out again, it was so chaotic that I didn’t know who was fighting which. In short, they were running away, and Mu Shaoqin just lost contact.

"However, I always feel that your father is not dead." Hui Niang took out an earthen jar that she had collected from under the bed and took out the contents to show to her daughter.

Inside is a set of yellowed and old silk underwear. The material is very good, showing the former dignity of the owner. There is also a wedding certificate written on big red paper, with good calligraphy on it, round and regular.

It is said that this was Mu Shaoqin's handwriting, which made people praise it. If the handwriting is true to the person, then her father should not be too sorry for the audience. It's just the signature at the end that makes people's intestines knot, and they don't recognize it.

Hui Niang said proudly, "I was afraid that the mice would eat the box and destroy the things your father left behind, so I packed them all up and stuffed them in jars. If not, there would have been a big fire and nothing would be left."

Nianfu gave a thumbs up and suddenly asked, "Since mom thinks dad is not dead, why don't you go and find out?"

Anyway, the world is at peace, so it shouldn't be that difficult to find someone, right? If her father's family business hasn't withered yet, can she choose a ready-made lady? e="Celebrating the Harvest Year"]
