MTL - Almighty Dad-Chapter 105 Sick Dad 16
There are still a few days before the new year, Han Ze thought it was time to go to Yue's house to give the New Year's gift, so he asked Wang Caiwei to go to the town to buy some things.
Wang Caiwei still shook her head and refused. This year, the family has more money than in previous years. Jinxiu has studied female celebrities for more than a year. In the past six months, she has been able to embroider some handkerchiefs and purses for sale. All the copper coins she got are used to supplement the family. The money that Xianggong used to copy books is almost useless, she saves all of it, it is reserved for Xianggong’s scientific examination next year, the poor family is rich, and Xianggong is going to Yangcheng, so he must bring enough money. It cannot be used indiscriminately.
Han Ze raised his eyebrows and asked her puzzledly, "What's wrong?"
Wang Caiwei lowered her head and explained in a low voice: "My natal family does not lack those New Year's gifts. It's a matter of giving more and less. They won't care."
She knew in her heart that her father and mother only cared about the status of the son-in-law, if the husband won the Juren, they would like it even if they didn't give him anything.
Han Ze laughed: "Some of them belong to their family, and what we give away is our heart. This year, you will be selected as a scholar. Let's prepare more annual gifts."
What else did Wang Caiwei want to say, Han Ze said: "Even if I have to go to Yangcheng for the exam, there are still a few months left. During this time, I can copy another set of books, so I won't run out of money."
Wang Caiwei thought for a while, then gritted her teeth and said, "Then give me an extra chicken, okay?"
Han Ze: "..."
Wang Caiwei didn't notice the strangeness of her husband, and said again: "Mother has raised all the chickens for several years, and gave us New Year's gifts, and even the eggs laid by the hens were all sold, and she didn't eat a single bite of eggs or chicken. We have money in our hands, so we go to the town to buy two chickens, and if the chickens at home are killed, the whole family can eat a bite."
Han Ze lamented that Wang Caiwei didn't have any selfishness in her heart, which is really rare. He said, "It's up to you."
Mrs. Han heard that her son and daughter-in-law were going to the town to buy New Year gifts for the Yue family, so she changed into new clothes made by the eldest daughter-in-law and said, "I will go with you. Prepare it, and buy it for them by the way."
After listening to her mother-in-law's words, the Zheng family and the Wu family didn't feel much. The annual gifts for her natal family are prepared by her mother-in-law every year, and they don't care about it. The mother-in-law will not treat them badly either.
Mrs. Han walked in front, and Han Ze and Wang Caiwei followed her. When they reached the village, she stood there and did not leave. Han Ze asked her, "Mother, why don't you leave?"
Mrs. Han puffed her chest out and said proudly, "Let's go by ox cart, the ox cart will have to wait to come."
She is now the mother of a scholar, and she is willing to pay only two pennies. What's more, even if she is reluctant, she can't let her talented son walk. What if he is tired?
Han Zejunxiu's face was full of smiles, "Okay, let's go by bullock cart."
After waiting for a while, Uncle Han drove over with an ox cart. The ox cart was not big. Fortunately, there were not many people going to the town to go to the market. The three of them sat on it, which happened to be a good fit.
Mrs. Han wiped the stool with her hands, and sat down very carefully. Mrs. Li in the bullock cart saw her brand new clothes and said with a smile, "Ms. Han, are you wearing new clothes?"
It is usually difficult for country people to make a piece of clothing, even if they have no money in their hands during the holidays, they will not be extravagant to make a piece of clothing.
In the past few years, Han Ze has been in poor health, and his family owed a lot of foreign debts. All the clothes of the family have been patched and patched. Mrs. Han has not made new clothes for several years. Some of them made clothes for Han Ze. After all, he was going to study in the county school and could no longer wear patched clothes. The rest were left for the children to make clothes. There is no objection to the distribution of several daughter-in-laws in this way.
Mrs. Han held her head high, showing off in her tone: "My eldest daughter-in-law made it for me."
Mrs. Li looked envious: "It's so beautiful."
It's very pretty, this material was chosen by Han Ze, it's brighter, it's suitable even for young people. Wang Caiwei thought the fabric was too bright and not suitable for her mother-in-law, but Han Ze insisted that the clothes she made would look good on her mother-in-law. Wang Caiwei thought, Xianggong is a scholar, so his vision is not ordinary.
Mrs. Han raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "I bought the fabric in the county seat. If you like it, my daughter-in-law Dalang can bring you a piece of fabric."
Mrs. Li hurriedly waved her hands, and said enviously, "I don't have a talented son like you. How can I have money to buy fabrics? I can't even eat enough."
Mrs. Han wanted to say a few more words, but when she heard people saying that she was not full enough to eat, she couldn't continue to show off, lest people feel uncomfortable, so she could only sigh regretfully, holding her words in her heart, thinking that she would show off next time To show off, you have to find someone who is similar to his family to show off, otherwise it's useless to show off.
Han Ze and Wang Caiwei looked at each other, and they could see that Mother was not here to go to the market, but to show off her new clothes.
When they arrived in the town, a few people went to buy chickens first, but Mrs. Han hurriedly stopped them and said, "I have chickens at home, so why should I buy chickens? It's a pity for money."
There is nothing wrong with having that money, so you have to buy chicken?
Wang Caiwei knew that her mother would stop her, so she hurriedly explained: "My mother has raised chickens for a year, so I should also taste the chicken. How can I give away my mother's chickens every year?"
Mrs. Han was full of enthusiasm, only felt that the daughter-in-law here was more considerate than the girl, and when she thought of the girl, her heart ached, so she stopped quickly and said: "The chicken is delicious, and there is no meat, it is better to eat a few pounds of meat, which is full of oil and water. "
Wang Caiwei disagrees, how can the taste of chicken and pork be the same? Mrs. Han was still waiting to stop her, so Wang Caiwei sighed and said, "Xianggong is going to take the provincial examination next year, so let our chickens make up for him. Mother's chickens are plump and beautiful."
Mrs. Han heard it, and said decisively: "You are right. The old hens in the village don't have the chicken fat raised by their mothers. Han Ze spends his brains studying, and everything in the county is expensive. He should make up for it when he returns home. My mother’s family kills chickens.”
Wang Caiwei smiled, when it comes to husband-in-law, her mother-in-law will unconditionally compromise and try everything. After buying chickens, Wang Caiwei thought that Jinxiu had embroidered a lot of handkerchiefs and purses these days, so she sold them at the embroidery shop. It was not appropriate to take the chicken to the embroidery village, so I entrusted the chicken to an acquaintance. When they arrived at the embroidery village, several people paused. Mrs. Wang Xu was talking to the owner of the embroidery village, obviously buying embroidery products.
Wang Caiwei called out: "Mom!"
Wang Xu didn't expect to see her daughter and son-in-law here. She asked, "Why did you come to town today? Why didn't you go home?"
There was some resentment in his tone. The old man waited at home for a few days but did not wait for his daughter and son-in-law to come to the door. Alienated. It was only when Caixia and his wife came to the door yesterday that his face looked a little better.
Wang Caiwei didn't care about her tone, but said, "I'll give you a New Year gift later."
Wang Xu looked around, but didn't see any children, and was puzzled again: "How many children? Why didn't you bring them here?"
Wang Caiwei said with a smile: "Msanggong has assigned them a task to copy large characters at home."
Mrs. Wang Xu still wanted to ask something, Mrs. Han came out from behind her son, and said with a smile: "Mother-in-law, you are here too, what a coincidence."
Only then did Wang Xushi look at her, and said apologetically, "I just went to talk to Caiwei." Then he took a look at her, and praised: "This dress is really nice, and the color is beautiful."
The Wang family is a fabric merchant, and there is no shortage of clothes to wear at home. It is rare to see my mother-in-law dressed up like this, but it still made her eyes shine, and she praised casually.
"Caiwei made it for me, it must look good, Caiwei's hands are always skillful."
Hearing this, Mrs. Han puffed her chest out, thinking that this is the clothes your daughter made for me, but she didn't make them for you. It feels like eating a piece of ice in summer. I feel so refreshed. Let you I look down on my son, and my daughter doesn’t even borrow money when I come to borrow money. Such a cruel mother, my daughter deserves it for not being considerate to you. Fortunately, my son is up to date, and now he is a scholar.
You don't feel sorry for your daughter, she is married to our family, I will take care of you. I love her, she is filial to me, and in the future my son will pass the Juren examination, life will be so happy. No matter how envious you are, it's useless. Han Ze is not your son.
Wang Xu felt even more panicked, what the **** does Han Ze mean? To show off in front of her? Will she lack clothes to wear? She really lacks, what she lacks is the dress made by her daughter herself, and what she lacks is the closeness of her daughter. The daughter can make clothes for her mother-in-law, but she doesn't want to make clothes for her own mother. She must be blaming her.
Even so, she couldn't say anything, her daughter was already married, and she didn't want to make clothes for her, so she couldn't open her mouth to ask for it, so she forced a smile: "Caiwei was dexterous when she was young."
Mrs. Han answered, "Not only is she dexterous, but she is also considerate, filial and considerate. She said that I gave away all the chickens I raised. I have worked hard for a year, but I haven't eaten a bite of chicken. I have to keep the chickens. Let me taste the taste of the chicken I raised, and you say that this child, even if I gave birth to it myself, is not as warm as her."
Wang Caiwei was ashamed, was it her mother-in-law who praised her?
It stands to reason that the mother-in-law praised her daughter, she should be happy, but Wang Xu felt that the smile on her face was a bit unmaintainable. The daughter was caring at her husband's house, but she hurt their hearts so much at her mother's house. Let alone making clothes for them, she came back from the county like this After a long time, I didn't say that I came to the town to see them. It's really the water poured out by a married girl...
Mrs. Han saw her mother-in-law's complexion changed again and again, so she shut up in time, so as not to push her into a hurry and bully her daughter-in-law again.
Liu Xiucai and Wang Caixia came to Wang's house yesterday to give the New Year's gift. Thinking that Han Ze hadn't come to give the New Year's gift, they planned to wait at home for two days. Liu Xiucai still wanted to get closer to Han Ze.
Ever since he knew that Han Ze won the first place in the year-end exam at the county school, he knew that Han Ze had real talent and learning. Even so, he had nothing to worry about. After all, compared to Han Ze, he had already studied in the county school for four annual book.
The reason why they stayed here waiting for him was because they were brother-in-law, and they went to Yangcheng to take care of each other. After all, the Liu family may have some face in the county, but they don't have any influence in Yangcheng, so he dare not trust him.
Like-minded, Han Ze thinks that whether it is the original body or him, it is impossible for Liu Xiucai and Liu Xiucai to be like-minded friends, they can just communicate as before, there is no need to get closer, the two sides are uncomfortable, Wang Caixia is uncomfortable, Wang Caiwei must not be at ease either.
So when he arrived at Wang's house, he didn't talk to Liu Xiucai alone. Instead, he sat in his seat like last year. He didn't become arrogant just because he was selected as a scholar, but listened to them with a smile. When he asked him, he replied, Without asking him, he just sat and listened to them.
Liu Xiucai smiled helplessly. They are all scholars, and he knows better than anyone how proud they are. Han Ze refused to accept his intentional approach, and he couldn't say anything, after all, his attitude towards Han Ze was like this before.
What he didn't expect was that Han Ze was so proud, unwilling to accept any grievances, even in Yue's family, how could he get along in the officialdom with such a temper? Han Ze wasn't worried, but he thought highly of him. Thinking of this, since he doesn't want to get closer to him, he doesn't need to force it. There are a few students in the county who are going to take the rural examination, and they can go together, so there is nothing to worry about.
Han Ze's attitude made Mr. Wang very helpless. After all, he didn't do anything as a son-in-law, and he did what he should have. That is to say, the youngest son is not bad at studying, but only good, but not as good as Han Ze, or even not as good as the eldest son-in-law. Whether you can achieve something in the imperial examination is not yet known, but even if you have achieved something, it is good to have someone to rely on.
I didn't expect Han Ze to be so upright that he didn't even want the support from his father-in-law. I just don't know if he is really capable or arrogant. It's nothing if he really has the ability, if he is proud of his talent, he will not achieve much in the future, as his son said, he already has a talented son-in-law, since Han Ze doesn't want to get close to them, there is no need to force him.
This year, the Han family lived very lively, and Han Daya, who was far away in the county seat next door, was sitting in front of the rented house, guarding a stove, looking at the stars in the sky in a daze, when suddenly there was a violent beating She was startled by the sound of the door, and hurriedly hid in the house, nestled in the bed, tears flowed out, she knew that those people were just knocking on her door to scare her, even so, she was very scared, I was afraid that one day they would break in, and what would she do as a woman?
It wasn't until this moment that she felt a trace of regret deep in her heart, regretting that Han Ze had been drugged back then, which led to today's end. But she knew that it was useless to regret, so she did what she had done. Even if she lived a lifetime, there was no regret medicine in the world, and she would not be able to live again, but even if she was harassed every day, she didn't want to die. She hadn't seen How can children die when they get married?
Even if life is miserable, she will continue to live. Thinking of this, she secretly made a decision and clenched her fists. She will return to Xiaohan Village after the year. Even if the villagers hate her and exclude her, she will go back, at least in Xiaohan. In the village, for the sake of the Han family, no one dared to really bully her even if they excluded her. She is much safer as a woman.
Where did Han Daya and Li go, Han Ze didn't ask, and he didn't even ask too much about her and Li. Looking at Da Ya Han, he just pretends that there is no such big sister. He was the victim of his elder sister, if he still cared about her affairs, he would be too sorry for the original body.
The whole family was having a New Year's Eve dinner when Daya Han's children suddenly came to the Han's house. This was the first time they had set foot on the door of the Han's house since their mother was exposed for drugging Han Ze. I understand, how come these children who are older than the Chinese New Year are here?
Mrs. Han subconsciously looked at Han Ze's reaction, but Han Ze didn't respond. It is true that Han Daya was very hateful, and she drugged the original body, causing the original body to faint in the examination room. But there was nothing wrong with the children, and he wouldn't blame the children for Han Daya's mistakes, they underestimated him too much.
Mrs. Han Youtian and Mrs. Han didn't speak, Han Erlang and Han Sanlang didn't say anything, and Wang Caiwei's three sisters-in-law couldn't even speak. As for the children, the elders didn't speak, so there was no place for them to speak. So the whole family didn't speak, just looked at the three brothers and sisters silently.
When the three children saw their grandfather and grandmother, they ignored them, their eyes were slightly red.
Han Ze sighed and said gently, "Come in."
Those who celebrate the New Year can't watch their children cry.
Mrs. Han relaxed slightly, and secretly scolded herself for making a fuss. Doesn't she know what kind of temper her son has? How could he have trouble with the child? Although she hated her daughter for drugging her son, she was really reluctant to part with her grandchildren, and waved with a smile: "Your uncle asked you to come in, come in quickly."
Wang Dahai's face was also relaxed, and he pulled his younger siblings into the house. Mrs. Han held Wang Chunxue tightly in her arms and asked softly, "Come here, have you told your grandparents and father?"
Wang Dahai lowered his head and shook his head slightly.
Mrs. Han frowned, not because she didn't like them coming home, but because it was Chinese New Year's Eve, they were not at home for the New Year, how could they go to their natal family, and they haven't told the family, which is unreasonable, and asked: "What happened?"
Wang Chunxue whispered, "That woman hit us."
Mrs. Han was startled: "You mean your stepmother beat you?"
The three children nodded.
Mrs. Han frowned and asked, "Why did she beat you? Did you make a mistake?"
Wang Dahai shook his head, and said in a low voice: "She said that we stole food, obviously it was not us that ate, but her own children ate, but she wants to wrong us."
Mrs. Han asked loudly: "Where are your grandparents, and your father? Don't they bother to ask?"
Wang Chunxue said: "Father said that the stepmother has a little brother in her belly, let us let the little brother not make the stepmother angry."
Mrs. Han sneered, "Where are your grandparents? Don't you care?"
Wang Dahai said: "The stepmother said that the mother was vicious and poisoned her own brother..." At this point, he glanced at Han Ze, and continued: "Our roots are all bad, so we must be disciplined. Lest we grow up to poison our brothers and sisters and harm the whole family."
"Fart!" Mrs. Han jumped, "Your mother is your uncle's sister, and your uncle is a scholar. Could it be that he is also a bad person?"
Wang Dahai shook his head. Uncle is certainly not a bad person. He was the person he respected the most when he was a child. That's why he couldn't understand why his mother wanted to harm his uncle, others and himself. If she didn't drug him, Dad would They will not reconcile with her, and they will not leave their mother at a young age, and their home is occupied by an outsider. That home is no longer the previous home, even if they did nothing, dad, and grandparents But they chose to trust an outsider instead of their grandchildren, and there was no place for them in that family. He is very at a loss now, not knowing what to do in the future. I had to come to my grandmother's house for help.
While talking, Doctor Wang and brother-in-law Wang came in a hurry, and now he can no longer be called brother-in-law Wang, but should be called little doctor Wang. Mrs. Han became angry when she saw them, and asked: "I don't want to be angry with you during the Chinese New Year, but it's just that the children have been wronged. As grandpas and fathers, you don't care, but we as grandmas don't care." It cannot be ignored.”
Doctor Wang frowned slightly, and said, "Mother..."
Mrs. Han interrupted him abruptly, and said with a dark face: "You and Da Ya have reconciled. I'm not your mother-in-law. Don't call me mother."
Doctor Wang was stunned for a moment, then changed his words: "Ma'am, no one is angry with the children, and they are not wronged. They steal food, and they don't teach them a lesson, lest they grow crooked."
Mrs. Han snorted: "Don't say that the child didn't steal the food, even if he ate something, it was his own. If he didn't eat other people's food, it wouldn't be considered stealing."
Little Doctor Wang was about to say something, but Doctor Wang hurriedly said: "What you said is true, what you said is true. There is no reason to eat something at home, and you will be scolded for stealing it."
Doctor Wang looked at his father, that's not what they said when they were at home. Doctor Wang didn't see his eyes, what does the stinky boy know? He said that at home, he deliberately stimulated a few children, let them come to the Han family for help, and see if the Han family will take care of the children. Now that they know Attitude, he knew it in his heart.
Han Ze is already a scholar, and he may be able to pass the examination in the future. Although his son remarried, he did not want to alienate the Han family. The grandsons are the bridge to maintain their relationship.
At that moment, Dr. Wang promised Mrs. Han: "The children will follow us, and we will not let them be wronged. The stepmother is just a stepmother. With me and their grandma, we will never let her discipline the children again."
Mrs. Han was about to say something, Han Youtian interrupted her: "With your guarantee, we can rest assured. Children make mistakes, teach them well, and don't beat them easily. This is not discipline, but child abuse."
Doctor Wang hurriedly said, "Yes, yes."
Sending off the Wang family, the family's good mood was ruined, Han Ze said: "Since everything is fine, there is no need for parents to worry, with Dr. Wang here, the children will not be wronged, let alone we are so close, As long as there is something, you can also take care of it.”
Mrs. Han thought it was the same reason, so she let go of her thoughts, and the family became lively again.
Years later, Han Ze's family packed up their bags and returned to the county seat, where they entered the intense study again. As Qiu Wei approached, Han Ze clearly felt that the atmosphere in the county school became tense. Even Wang Ziwen and Zhao Xiuxiu Also let the family members come to take care of them, so as not to delay their studies because of their own trivial matters.
The start of the township examination was on August 10, and it would take six days and six nights from the county seat to Yangcheng. After discussing with Wang Ziwen and Zhao Xiuxiu, Han Ze decided to go to Yangcheng in early July and planned to rent a small yard temporarily. In case you go too late, you won’t be able to rent a suitable house. Wang Ziwen hasn't married yet, so his mother decided to accompany him to Yangcheng to take care of him, and Zhao Xiuxiu's wife also planned to accompany him.
Wang Caiwei wanted to stay in the county to take care of a few children, so she couldn't accompany him, so she could only write to Han Erlang to come and accompany his eldest brother to Yangcheng.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zheng also came along with her.
Another half a year has passed, and she misses her son very much, so she couldn't help but follow him over to see him. Seeing her son eating and lodging with her eldest brother and sister-in-law is better than at home, and she wants to be more polite and sensible than Chinese New Year, she feels sore and unbearable. The child has grown up before she knows it.
Mrs. Zheng wiped her eyes secretly, then turned to Wang Caiwei and said, "Sister-in-law, you can go to Yangcheng with elder brother, I will take care of a few children here."
The sister-in-law has raised her son for more than a year, and it is time for her to contribute.
Han Erlang was taken aback: "What about me?"
Mrs. Zheng waved: "You go too. They are all women, so it's not easy to show their faces. Brother and the others are going to take the exam. There is a man here, so he can help him run up and down."
Wang Caiwei frowned: "But in the county town, you are not familiar with the place where you were born, and even shopping for vegetables is difficult..."
Granny Lu was also at Han's house, and when she heard what they said, she smiled and said, "With me around, nothing can go wrong, you just go to Yangcheng."
Wang Caiwei was moved, and with Granny Lu around, she felt relieved.
Han Ze shook his head helplessly at the side. He, the person who took the exam, hadn't even spoken yet, and they had already arranged it. He asked, "You guys have made arrangements, what about me?"
Wang Caiwei said as a matter of course: "You just need to take the exam with peace of mind."
Mrs. Zheng also said: "Yes, brother, with us here, you can take the exam at ease and don't ask about anything, so as not to delay the exam."
Han Ze shook his head amusedly, "Okay, listen to you."
