Chapter 105 Chapter One Hundred and Thirteen

Brother Fengju was eating in the living room, and everyone laughed for a while.At this moment, Li Sheng walked in from the outside, walked up to Feng Ju, and said in a low voice, "Please, old lady." Seeing Li Sheng's solemn expression, Feng Ju followed him out as if it was not good news. , also asked in a low voice: "What's the matter again? Seeing you like this, it seems that there is something serious." Li Sheng said: "The old lady just passed outside the living room, and her face was very ugly. When you get inside, you will pay I invite you, sir." Feng Ju couldn't guess what was going on, as soon as he walked into the room, he saw Mrs. Jin sitting on the big chair with a gloomy expression, and Feng Ju came in, she was silent for a long time.Although Feng Ju is not afraid of her mother, but in this difficult time for the family, when her mother is grieving, she has to be careful, because she approached and whispered: "What's the matter?" Mrs. Jin asked again His face sank and he said: "You are all heartless things! At this time, are you still able to eat, drink and have fun?" Feng Ju sat down far away and said, "Did you hear us just now Do you talk in the living room? It's all because of the friends of Mr. Liu who came early this morning, and the family's light meal is reserved for them to eat. What can we have fun? But because of the conversation, I laughed twice. " Jin The wife said: "Can you still laugh?" Fengju said: "Our family is unlucky, but my friend's family is not unlucky. I just don't laugh. How can I..." Mrs. Jin slapped the chair and leaned back: "I hate it so much You're such a bunch of stuff, and you're still arguing even now? I'm sitting here, and I'm always in a city of sorrow. This afternoon, I'll go to Daozhi's place to stay for a while. I don't care about this house, so you guys can make a fuss. Okay. Now there is only this empty house left." Hearing this, Feng Ju didn't feel that his color changed and he said: "If you are angry, I will not say it. If you really mean it, I will say something. No matter how you say it, you still have four useless sons. As soon as the family situation gets worse, these four are so incompetent that your mother can't support them. Are you going to live with your relatives? Don't go." Mrs. Jin said: "Where do I want to go, who can control my physical freedom? I go to her, she can give me a kind of comfort, how about you? The fire last night , I don’t think it’s for nothing. My house is worth tens of thousands of dollars, so I want to keep it, and I have to find a way to keep it.” Mrs. Jin’s face turned red as she spoke, as if she was very angry .Feng Ju tapped on the table with the five fingers of his right hand in turn, frowning tightly. He felt like this for about three minutes. In the midst of silence, he tried his best to think, and finally came up with a sentence, and said coldly: "So, you want everyone to move out of this house?" Mrs. Jin nodded and said, "That's right. Now, why don't I make a plan? My deposits have been fully distributed to you Not only have I lost my income, but I have also lost my savings. Although the ostentation is much smaller now, I still have to spend one or two thousand yuan for food every month. If this continues, I will be poor in less than three years. It's all gone. Who cares, as long as everyone lives a good life, I can deal with it for a day, just live a day. Now that you are together, except for being narrow-minded, the happy ones are still happy, and the foolish ones are still fooling around. If you don’t make trouble until everyone dies together, you won’t come to your senses! If I forcefully maintain this big family, that’s not to maintain everyone, but to send everyone to a dead end.” Feng Ju felt ashamed when he heard his mother’s reprimand, and couldn’t help becoming angry. Suddenly he stood up and said: "What you said is correct. But we really want to live on, and we must not go down like this. Except for Lao Qi who has no income now, the three of us, of course, each A sum of money has to be allocated every month to maintain the household, so you won’t be required to pay any money in the future.” Mrs. Jin said, “For the current household, let’s consider it a thousand yuan a month. Let me ask you, how much can each person afford?” Can't you pay three hundred yuan?" Feng Ju paused, then sat down again.Stretching out an index finger with his right hand, he drew circles repeatedly on the coffee table, and said slowly: "Is this all right?" Mrs. Jin sneered and said, "Is this all right?" Feng Ju didn't dare to say it.That finger was still drawing circles on the tea table.The mother and son were silent for a while, and Mrs. Jin said: "To be honest, I don't want you to have such a day. As long as you support yourself and don't make any losses, I think you are a lucky star. My name is You came here not to discuss this matter. I have had this idea for a long time, and I haven’t decided on a day to implement it. Now I want to tell you that disasters in the family are coming one after another. Although you have that kind of optimism, Don't care, but you should only keep it in your heart, not on the surface. People say that you have no heart, and I don't care about him. If people talk about me and your dead father, they will raise a son like you. But you have added a crime for us, I think you are still a little bit impatient. I will stop here, there are still good friends of yours waiting outside, you go and talk about it." Feng Ju listened to his mother's lesson, Seeing that there was no smile on her face, I felt that my mother was really angry.He hesitated and dared not go.Mrs. Jin saw that Feng Ju just wanted to stand up, then sat down again, and said with a sneer, "You don't have to act like this. You brothers, you only need to listen to one or two words out of ten. In our family, And why is it that once the iceberg falls, everyone will end up in such a field? It’s better not at this moment, so go ahead.” Feng Ju still had a lot to say, but he kept on talking, and was afraid that the words would become stagnant .I had no choice but to stand up and walk out slowly.In the living room, everyone was there except Peng Zhen.Fengju asked Hesun, "Where's the third child?" Hesun said, "He said he was going out, but he didn't go out. It seems that he went to the house to change clothes." Fengju said, "Where is he?" Want to go out?..." At this point, seeing that there were many friends in the room, he suddenly stopped talking.Among friends, no one knows that the uncle is the most face-saving person, and the third master is the one who knows how to plan. Only this sentence of the uncle has fully expressed his attitude towards the third master.It's not good for the uncle to continue talking about this, and when he continues, the face of the third master will be bad.Everyone took advantage of Feng Ju's speech to pause, and rushed to talk about other things to drag this conversation away.Feng Ju lay on the rattan chair, sighed towards the ceiling and said, "I have more heart but not enough strength." Yanxi said, "What is there to do when I have more heart but not enough strength?" Feng Ju frowned and shook his head Said: "It's very complaining, I don't want to talk about it, I will go back and ask inside, I will naturally understand."

After hearing this, Yanxi understood that there were nine out of ten possibilities, and she thought to herself, sure enough, our big family is going to be separated.I am left alone, who should I mix with?My mother is not very satisfied with me. Since the elder brothers and sisters-in-law say that they have established their own families, how can I go along with them?The second aunt and the two elder sisters couldn't cooperate anymore.Yanxi thinks about it from the past, if the whole family breaks up, no one can live with her.Living alone, and extremely lonely, the only way now is to go to Germany with Xiuzhu.In Germany, it is much better to do things when you have something to do, and to study when you have nothing to do, than to hold your shoulders at home and do nothing.When he thought of this, the infinite troubles in his heart seemed to be relieved a little.It is best to go to Bai's house immediately and have a talk with Xiuzhu, which will be more stable.However, going out at this time would attract people's attention, and going to Xiuzhu's place was even more controversial.Impatient in my heart, I sat with many people and never heard what they said.If you have something on your mind, it's better to go to the side and think about it. After thinking about it, I immediately got up and went to the study.Walking into the room, I lay down quietly for a while, but couldn't settle down, got up and wandered in the corridor again.After wandering for a long time, he still walked into the house and lay down on the couch.Stretching out his hand to press the electric bell, Jin Rong came in. Before he could speak, Yanxi said, "You know? We're about to break up." Hearing this, Jin Rong didn't know what his intention was, and stood aside, stunned. up.Yanxi asked again: "Didn't you hear that?" Jin Rong smiled and said: "I heard that, it's just the old lady's anger, so don't worry about it." Yanxi said: "It must not be an anger It must become a fact, what do you think we should do?" Jin Rong didn't know what Yanxi meant by asking this question, he paused for a while, and said slowly: "I have always served Qi Ye, of course I still serve Qi Ye In the end." Jin Rong is not the kind of villain who tends to follow others.Yanxi shook her hand and said, "Oh! You misunderstood me. I'm not asking about your business. I'm asking about my own business. Is there anything you can do?" Jin Rong really didn't expect Seventh Master to say this , He wanted to be a military adviser himself, so he laughed and said, "You are a joke, why did you ask me to come up with something?" Yanxi said, "What does it matter? There are not many people who really know my affairs, so they can There are only a few people who can help me, don’t you think so?” After hearing what he said, although Jin Rong could come up with some ideas, when he thought about the distinction between master and servant and Yanxi’s behavior, he still couldn’t be confused. It's better to talk.So he smiled and stepped back, as if he was about to go out.He went straight to the door and said: "Don't be in a hurry, after two or three days, everyone will feel at ease, and you won't be so troubled." After finishing speaking, he walked out with the door behind him.

In desperation, Yanxi thought of asking Jin Rong to ask, but Jin Rong couldn't tell the reason.One person lay quietly in the house without calling anyone or going out.Because I heard what Mrs. Leng said, I went home to have a look, and I still have to come in the afternoon.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Leng did not come this afternoon, and she did not send anyone here to inquire about the news.I thought to myself, this is strange, in such an emergency, on their side, they would suddenly stop asking for information. Could it be that they have given up interventionism and let nature take its course?After thinking for a while, he couldn't sit still in the room anymore, so he walked slowly to Mrs. Jin's yard.First, I stood at the gate of the yard to hear what Mrs. Jin said in the room.After listening for a long time, it was silent. I wonder if Mrs. Jin is resting or not in the house?Therefore, although he walked slowly inside, he stepped extremely heavily, but he walked all the way to the window, and still did not hear a sound from the room.It looked like my mother was no longer in the room, so I let go and walked in.He lifted the curtain and walked in to have a look. Unexpectedly, besides Mrs. Jin sitting in the room, there were the second concubine and the three sisters Minzhi.Everyone was frowning, facing each other, and no one spoke.When Yanxi came in, Mei Li looked at his face and asked, "Why is there sweat on your face?" Then she took a handkerchief from her body and threw it at Yanxi.Yanxi said, "I'm not sweating anymore." Then she picked up the handkerchief and wiped her face. After a few wipes, she didn't sweat much.Yin said: "I looked in the mirror and saw that my face was yellow. It's not sweat, it's oil." When he said this, everyone laughed.Yanxi said: "This is the truth, what are you laughing at? The weather is too hot, or people are too anxious, and there will be a burst of butter on the face." Mrs. Jin stopped laughing, and said: "According to what you said, Are you in a hurry? But it’s better for everyone to break up because of your plans to go abroad. You should be happy, why are you in a hurry?” Yanxi frowned and said, “Your old man, They kept clamoring to break up the partnership all day long, and if they really broke up, they couldn't get along." Mrs. Jin sneered and said, "You think I want to live in the same family for nine generations!" After saying this, she stopped talking.She leaned back on the recliner and sat, correcting her color, not looking at people.The Minzhi sisters also leaned on the backs of their chairs, as if they couldn't support their own bodies.The second aunt found a newspaper in her hand, and was very bored looking at the pictures on the advertisement.Because although she knows a few words, she doesn't understand the arts.Everyone is so bored.Yanxi was very reluctant to cheer up and talk alone. She felt that sitting was boring, so she stood up and walked outside.Walking to the door of the room, she lifted the curtain with her hand, and Mrs. Jin said, "Where are you going? Sit a little longer, what's the matter?" Yanxi was called out by her mother, so she had to turn around and still sit where she was.Frowning, she said: "I'm here, and I see everyone is very worried, I can't sit still." Mrs. Jin said: "But you can't sit still in this room, I see the house in Wuyi Lane, There is no way to settle down for your family." Yanxi heard this, but dared not make a sound.Mrs. Jin said again: "Until now, there is still little news about Qingqiu. Although you don't care about this, I can't help but worry a little. I have already offered a reward. Although it is inconvenient to publish it in the newspaper, please ask relatives and friends to spread the word orally. If her mother and son find it, you will be rewarded with 1,000 yuan. If you have any definite news, you will be rewarded with 500 yuan. At the same time, you can also make an advertisement and put it in the newspaper. Say that no matter what happens, it can be solved, as long as It's fine if she comes back. As for the publication of this newspaper, we don't need each other's real names, how to let her know, that's up to you." Yanxi said: "I don't think it's appropriate to make a fuss, or make a fuss until it's published in the newspaper." When he said that, he folded his arms around his chest, held his head up, and just lost his mind.Mrs. Jin said: "Are you going to let it be? There is no need to say whether you are emotional or not. Even if you are perfunctory and perfunctory, you should show something." Yanxi raised her head and was still thinking, but his feet were bumping When I got up, I just came up with something more.Mei Li hurriedly replied: "It should be. If Brother Qi doesn't want to show face like this, I, Jin Meili, don't care. I can use my name in the newspaper." Put it down and said: "You will blame me for being troublesome again later. As long as it is published in the newspaper, no matter who is showing face, won't everyone know about it?" Mei Li stood up and turned her head. "I want you to help him talk, and he won't listen to everyone." Mrs. Jin glared at Mei Li and said, "Why do you still talk like this, child? You know, we will come to each other separately in the future." After that, you have to rely entirely on your mother. Although she knows a few words less than you and lived twenty years longer than you, she has more knowledge. If you don't listen to her, you will still lose your temper like this , when your mother is sad and ignores you, you are suffering. At this age, are you still a child in front of you?" Mei Li really felt sorry for her biological mother, but let this The honest second aunt is too spoiled, and she makes petty temper for the slightest thing.And this second aunt always shows timidity when she speaks, and Mei Li always corrects her with kindness, so she often robs her mother in front of others.These few words today could not be said to be bad intentions at first, but now Mrs. Jin said these few words honestly while she was sad, and every single word of these words entered Meili's heart, thinking of mother and daughter, Sure enough, he left the family. In that situation, he was the second Leng Qingqiu.As for this honest mother, her evening scene is beyond words.Thinking in my heart, I bowed my head in silence, and unknowingly, a few tears would fall.Min Zhi smiled and said: "When you say you are delicate, you become even more delicate like a flower. If you say something like this, you will cry, isn't it strange?" Meili heard this, and it was inconvenient to deny that she was acting like a spoiled child. , I was also embarrassed to say what was on my mind, but I just lowered my head and wept.Yanxi looked at her for a long time, then sighed, "That's enough to see! What do you mean by taking advantage of this time?" Mrs. Jin said, "What is enough to see?" Who told you what? Now, I don’t think you have room to lose your temper?” Yanxi said, “Of course I can’t help worrying, but if I say I must take some responsibility, I don’t think so. Admit it. You think, one is that I must bear some responsibility, but I don’t admit it. Think about it, if a person is willing to sacrifice, he has hands and feet, and can live or die at any time. How can others guard him?” Run Zhidao: "There is always a reason for everything..." Mrs. Jin shook her hand and said, "Stop talking, talking to this kind of person is playing the piano with a cow." Then, she turned her face to Yanxi and said : "I don't have anything to say to you, you go." Yanxi thought for a while, stopped me for something to say, and then slammed me away. I don't know what mother means by this?Although he didn't leave immediately, he didn't make a sound while sitting.Mrs. Jin looked at him with his arms behind his neck, pillowed on the couch, his feet half dangling, and he was stepping on the floor, looking very bored.Yin waved his hand and said, "I have nothing to say to you. I have nothing to say to you. What are you waiting for? We have other things to talk about." Yanxi He stood up and said, "Since you won't let me listen, I'll go." After finishing speaking, he walked out of the room listlessly.Standing under the eaves of the veranda, he stopped for a while, but he didn't hear anyone say anything, but Mrs. Jin let out a long sigh.

Yanxi also knew that her mother would not have anything to say to many people, but she couldn't tell her son, so she went back to the study.As soon as he opened the door, a guest greeted him with a smile, but it was Xie Yushu.Yanxi said: "Long time no see, why do you have time to come today?" Xie Yushu said: "I heard something unfortunate happened in the family, so I came to take a look." Then he turned his head to look at Yanxi's His complexion, he said: "Your complexion is not very good." Yanxi clapped his hands and then raised his voice: "Of course it won't be better. If you have no money and money, is your complexion okay?" Xie Yushu said: "Who hurt you?" " Yanxi said: "It's not that it was hurt, it was that it ran away. Your elder brother has a beginning and an end. The day she came, you were here, and the day she left, you were here again." Xie Yushu Hearing this, I understood, and pretended not to know, so I said to Yanxi: "What charades are you playing with me? I don't know what you said." Yanxi said: "Our young mistress took advantage of the fire Not only did she run away, but she also took away a child of mine." Xie Yushu said with a straight face, "Is this true?" Yanxi said, "Running away from your wife is definitely not a decent thing. Why should I lie?" Yin told him the general situation.Xie Yushu said: "You are a marriage with complete love and freedom, and you have such a result, it's hard to say." Yanxi said: "If you agree, stay, if you don't agree, go, this is called freedom of marriage." Xie Yushu Said: "Maybe my sister-in-law was angry for a while and was eager to leave like this, and let her go, and stayed with relatives for three or five days, and then she came back." Yanxi said: "If you are talking about it, someone else may be able to do it. , As for this Ms. Leng, she has a very strong personality, so I'm afraid she won't just come and go like this." Yanxi was lying on the rattan chair with her legs crossed as she spoke, just shaking and humming: "It is said that a thousand dollars can buy a smile, but I can buy tears." Xie Yushu suddenly turned his face to Yanxi, and asked, "Are you talking about Mrs. Sister-in-law? Isn't it imitative?" Yanxi is still Shaking his leg, he said calmly: "The reason for this is not for outsiders." Xie Yushu smiled and said: "It's not that my old classmate doesn't know the severity of what he said, and you shouldn't say this when you are full of articles. .Even if you can't help but measure pearls to this wife, what you get is probably more than a pair of tears. Everyone in the world is like this. They only think forward, but not backward." Yanxi said: " According to what you said, I would not be a human being before." Xie Yushu said: "This is a joke, don't worry too much. Now that my sister-in-law has left, of course I have to find a way to deal with the aftermath. In this way, you are useful Is there a place for me? If there is, I can help." He said this with a very sincere look on his face, and it was by no means a perfunctory answer.Yanxi thought to himself, but this gentleman was also surprised that my friendship with him was just that, at most, after I asked him to be best man once, I became a little intimate.Unexpectedly, he often expresses his goodwill to me, and this time he even came from afar outside the city to express his condolences.It is not counted as condolences, but also willing to serve, why is this unknown?Xie Yushu saw him pondering at the side, thought that there was some important matter to ask, and said: "We have such a friendship, of course there is no need to be polite, as long as it is something I can do, I will definitely do it." He was talking , while looking at Yanxi's face, quietly waiting for his answer.Why did Yanxi ask him for anything?After he asked such a serious question, he couldn't ignore it, so he deliberately pondered, thinking about ideas in his heart.Yin also said with a very serious face: "It's just this matter, it's a little embarrassing for you." Xie Yushu said: "It doesn't matter if it's embarrassing, as long as it can be done. Don't be embarrassing and can't do it. "Yanxi said: "Of course I can't just ignore the Leng's family. But I don't know what attitude they are attached to. My mother-in-law just came here in the morning, and there is nothing to do after that. I myself It is inconvenient to find out their intentions, so I have to find a friend to ask. You have something to do with our marriage, so I want to invite you to go." Xie Yushu didn't wait for Yanxi to continue talking, and turned his body Standing at the station, he replied generously: "Yes, yes! If I can't do anything for this matter, then I can't be a friend. When will I go?" Yanxi said: "That's what I said, this afternoon, come to me again Since they promised to come, let's not go in a hurry. Otherwise, it seems that we just make do with others." Hearing this, Xie Yushu couldn't figure out what Yanxi meant, since he asked me to go Asking for news, but saying don't rush to go today, but I don't know whether to go or not?Yin laughed and said: "You think those words should be said in such a way that I will say it. Now that I have practiced the skill of speech many times, I will never see people speechless." "Yanxi said: "That's not what I mean. It's rare that you come all the way to the city. You don't have to go back today. Let's have a good talk. This long talk may be the last time, because I plan to go abroad. .” Xie Yushu seemed to have heard someone say that he was going to Germany with another lover.After his wife disappeared, he said that he was going to go abroad so definitely, of course there were some problems here, but it was inconvenient for him to ask further.Taking the meaning out of context, I could only answer the first half of what he said, and then said: "Great, I'd like to talk to you too. But I wonder if you have something to do? Don't delay your business just to chat with me." Yanxi said : "What business do I have? The business is nothing more than sadness." After finishing speaking, he let out a long sigh.At this time, Jin Rong came in to exchange tea, and Yanxi said: "Mr. Xie came all the way to the city, and he is probably hungry too. Go to the upper room and see if you have any snacks? Come out with two plates, please." Treat yourself."

Jin Rong promised to come to the upper room, and asked Mrs. Jin for refreshments.The group of people sitting and chatting in Mrs. Jin's room still didn't leave.Jin Rong walked under the eaves of the corridor and saw his sister coming out, so he greeted him and said, "Please ask the wife, do you have any snacks? Master Qi is here." Mrs. Jin had already heard it in the room, so she interrupted He said: "What dry snacks and wet snacks? Let him be less happy, who is here, he is very respectful?" Jin Rong approached the window and said: "It is Mr. Xie who was the best man of the seventh master who came." Jin Rong The wife said: "Why did he come here? Usually he doesn't like to hang out." Meili said: "Mom, do you have any snacks here? We have some western biscuits and tangerine peel plums in our place. You can make up two plates. Mrs. Jin said: "It's quite vulgar. When the guests come, what kind of dried fruit plates are there?" Mei Li said: "The school is in the country. I have come all the way, and I am probably hungry. Second sister Chen, come to my house." Let's look in the glass lattice, there is something to eat in the glass jar." She stood up, turned her face out of the window, and said so.Runzhi smiled and said: "You seem so enthusiastic. What does Lao Qi have to do with you?" Mei Li blushed and said, "What kind of enthusiasm is this? Wouldn't it be a shame for him?" Mrs. Jin said: "There is no need to make snacks, Jin Rong can ask Xiao Xie if he has eaten? If he hasn't eaten, just ask someone to eat a bowl of noodles in the kitchen." Runzhi said: "Mom seems to know him very well, why do you call him Xiao Xie?" Mrs. Jin said: "When I heard Lao Qi talking about him with others, he always called him Xiao Xie. I don't know how old you are?" Mei Li said: "Compared to our Seventh Brother..." She didn't pay attention and interrupted again, and when she felt something was wrong, she couldn't help but pause for a while, and couldn't speak the rest of the sentence .Mrs. Jin looked at her face and said, "Why didn't you say half a sentence?" Meili said: "I also heard Brother Qi say that this person named Xie is one year younger than him, so I know if it's accurate or not. What about it?" The second aunt said: "Speaking of being the best man with Lao Qi, I don't think they are older than Lao Qi, I don't know which one you are talking about?" Runzhi said: "Don't study It’s a matter of age, let Jin Rong go to the kitchen to ask for some snacks, he’s still hungry. This person doesn’t have any friendship with me, so I’m just talking for nothing.” When he was talking, he glanced at Mei Li After a glance, Mei Li just turned her face out of the window, ignoring it.Standing outside, Jin Rong could hear everything that was said in the room, so he said, "Madam, I'll go and have a look in the kitchen." After saying that, he left.Mrs. Jin said: "This man is here. I think Lao Qi should feel a little bit. He was there when he married his new wife that day. Today, the new daughter-in-law ran away and met him again. It's the two bridesmaids. One person took advantage of it and begged for our Peifang's sister." Runzhi said: "Of the two, only one took advantage. That's not surprising. The one who didn't take advantage is also confused. What's your idea!" Mrs. Jin said: "Is there any meaning to Xiaoxie? Who do you think?" Run Zhi glanced at everyone in the room, and said with a smile: "There is someone, but I don't know Guess right?" Meili sat next to the second aunt after hearing what Runzhi said, and she read the newspaper her mother read upside down.Mrs. Jin is a person who has traveled around the world and has passed through two dynasties. She grew up in a pile of gold powder since she was a child. Although the thoughts of the times are different, the love between children can never escape the trap of the same gourd.At this moment, she saw Meili's behavior and Runzhi's tone, and it was obvious.Of course, it is inconvenient for a mother to announce her daughter's secret suddenly in front of others.So although Mrs. Jin knew it in her heart, it was inconvenient to say anything at this moment, and she just smiled.After all, Minzhi should be more cautious, she was afraid that she would make it too clear, and the second aunt would be even more difficult to deal with when she was clamoring with a gun and a stick.So I found a few other things to talk about, and put this aside.Originally, Mrs. Jin was very depressed, and she didn't have such a leisurely mood, so she didn't mention it if she didn't mention it.
