MTL - Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World-Chapter 684 Fanwai Qu Weizhen Sister and Brother (14)
"When we earn money for you, you don't have to work so hard," Mother Qu pulled Qu Jingxi and whispered, "We will rent a house by ourselves, and quickly marry your third sister, even if she doesn't pay the rent. We can afford it."
Qu Jingxi was about to speak, when the silent father, Qu, knocked on his smoking gun, and said to him seriously: "Don't always think about going out to play, you have nothing to do with your husband, and now your three sisters are here. Now that you are a teacher in the academy, you have less time in front of them. If you don’t work hard at this time, is it possible that you still want to be suppressed by her for the rest of your life?”
Mother Qu nodded repeatedly and pulled him in a low voice: "Your third sister is cruel, other than her sisters, how can they still remember you? So you have to plan for yourself as soon as possible, until you have a firm foothold with your husband, We don't have to look at her face anymore, we'll find her... find a good family to marry."
Qu Jingxi fell silent, and after a while, she looked at her parents and nodded.
It's just a pity that Qu's mother and Qu's plan were unsuccessful. Li Baolu has always valued Qu Weizhen, but for two years, Qu Weizhen not only taught in the academy, but also began to participate in the management of the academy.
And they often go in and out of the Qin mansion. On the contrary, their sons only read books. Although they often go to the Qin mansion, they always go to ask for homework. Obviously, they are not as favored as his third sister in front of the gentlemen.
Because every time the Qin Mansion brought something over, it was pointed out that it was to be handed over to Qu Weizhen.
The most unacceptable thing for Qu's father and Qu's mother is that the entire family's expenses depend on Qu Weizhen. Qu Jingxi is still studying. It takes a lot of money to buy paper, ink, inkstone and books. I rent it in the academy, but I need to buy paints for painting, piano for piano, bow and arrow for archery, and a chessboard for learning chess...
They set up a stall outside Yunlu College, and at most they earn a hundred cents a day. In addition to the rent, they also need food. They can't let Xiaobao be inferior in the academy, so they have to make new clothes every year, every month. Also give him some money, so as not to look at people's faces when he goes out with his classmates.
With such a large amount of money, the two of them couldn't afford it at all, so they could only use Qu Weizhen's money.
And to use her money you have to look at her face, otherwise she will throw her hands and live in the academy, and they will have no way to take her.
At first, Qu's father and Qu's mother thought about marrying Qu Weizhen quickly, so that she would not become the hegemon at home, but after two months of robbing the housekeeper, the husband and wife stopped talking about her marriage, instead they were afraid She is married.
If she gets married, who will Xiaobao pay for in the future?
And Qu Weizhen has indeed never been married. She was eighteen and twenty. Her parents didn't mention it, and she was not in a hurry, as if she had forgotten that she was going to get married.
Qu Jingxi gave her a headache. At first, they acted like this to make their parents feel more peaceful and to be nice to their sisters. Who knows if it was self-defeating and the third sister didn't want to get married at all.
Qu Jingxi couldn't help but talk to her, "Third sister, what kind of person do you like? I have a few classmates who are not married yet, but they are about the same age as you, so maybe they are destined."
Qu Weizhen looked at the book in her hand, and said indifferently, "I have seen all of your classmates, and there is no one who is happy."
"Then what do you like, my brother will find it for you."
Qu Weizhen closed the book and raised her eyes to look at him, "Why, you think Third Sister is an eyesore, so you want to marry me out?"
"Third sister, you know I don't mean that," Qu Jing scratched her head and said, "I just don't want to drag you down because of me."
Qu Weizhen smiled, raised the calligraphy in his hand and said, "You didn't drag me down, it's because I don't want to get married."
"For a lifetime?"
"This is what I plan to do now." Qu Weizhen said indifferently.
Qu Jing frowned, he had expected it, but it was only confirmed at this time. He opened his mouth, not knowing whether to persuade or agree with her. Forcing her to marry may not necessarily make her happy and happy, and if she does not marry, she may not be able to fulfill her wishes in the future and will not regret it.
"Marriage is just a different place to live, or three meals a day. The difference is that I have to face a family again and win their approval. Life may not be as good as it is now, so why should I go looking for guilt? "
Over the years, she has fought wits and courage with her parents, forcing them to step back little by little, and finally won enough space for herself to survive and free.
She will no longer be looked at by them with contempt and contempt when she goes to the academy to teach, but is full of jealousy, envy and reliance; she does not need to seek their consent when she goes out to a party, and they dare not say it in front of her. She doesn't follow the rules, she likes to play, and so on; even if the money she earns is wasted, they will at most whisper a few words, and they will not dare to interfere randomly, and they will not dare to scold her...
This is the result of how many years she has worked hard to get it. Do you want to give up the achievements of these years and start over in another family?
She is not so bored yet, and these struggles can't make her happy. If you have time, it is better to go to the academy to work overtime, or read two more books.
The situation in their family is complicated, that's because their parents are biased to the horizon, but it's also simple, because Qufu and Qumu are people who can see through at a glance. Although they are vicious and ignorant, their ability is very low. within the grasp.
But getting married is different. There are too many involved in the new family. In-laws, uncles, sisters, sisters-in-law, and other eight aunts and seven aunts, they may not be as easy to control as her parents.
That's why she wouldn't take the initiative to find guilt.
Qu Weizhen leaned back in the chair relaxedly and said, "Unless I can meet someone who has no father or mother, who is healthy in body and mind, with outstanding literary talent and good character, unless I won't marry, oh, and One premise is that he also has to please me."
Qu Jing rubbed her forehead, "Does Mistress also care about you?"
"The teacher is very open-minded. She said that I am an adult, and it is my choice whether to marry or not." Qu Weizhen glanced at him proudly and asked, "Why, sir, did you kiss me?"
Qu Jing shook her head, "How can you do such a boring thing, sir?"
Qu Weizhen also thought about it and asked, holding her chin, "Then no one will kiss you? Otherwise, why would you think of my marriage?"
Qu Jingyi blushed, got up and said, "It's not because you are old, even the fourth sister is married, I'm afraid you can't remember it, so I remind you."
Qu Weizhen pouted and waved: "If someone tells you that you dislike having an old girl in our family, you should tell the other person that we can live separately in the future, and you don't need to give me a retirement."
"Third sister!" Qu Jingxi called out in disapproval.
Qu Weizhen smiled and said nothing. If she wants a child in the future, she will go to the Yushan Hall to hold one. Every year, there are a lot of outcasts there. When the time comes, she applies for a female household, adopts another child, and waits for her to die. It's enough to be able to restrain her.
If she dislikes the trouble of raising children, she will hand over the money to others, and she will arrange the funeral before she dies.
If you die unexpectedly, you don’t have to worry about it. After death, it’s just a cup of loess. If you can’t be happy during your lifetime, what’s the use of being safe after death? She's ignorant, isn't she?
Qu Weizhen can think about it, and Qu Jingxi understands her. After all, they are brothers and sisters who grew up together and studied together. If anyone in this world knows Sanjie best, it is Qu Jingxi. But Qu Fu Qu Mu can not understand.
At first, they were afraid that Qu Weizhen would leave the family and have no livelihood, but his son was married, he had a grandson, and his daughter-in-law brought a large dowry. go out.
But now she is a twenty-eight-year-old girl.
Qu's father and Qu's mother became worried, and began to scribble around to say kiss to her, Qu Weizhen quietly went to the yamen with Qu Jingxi and began to handle the female household.
Wait for the father and mother to know that it is time for them to sign and sign.
After so many years, the two have fought wits and bravery with her and have developed some feelings. Despite all kinds of dissatisfaction and abuse, the two still put their fingerprints on it, which is considered to agree with Qu Weizhen to establish a female household.
Qu Weizhen is not very grateful for their shallow feelings. If he really loves her, he will not wait until his younger brother is admitted to the jinshi and becomes an official before thinking that she is not married.
She took the newly obtained household registration and asked Qu Jingxi, "Did you move out, or should I move?"
Qu Jingxi looked at her speechlessly and said, "Do you want to cut the house in half and build a wall in the middle?"
Qu Weizhen shrugged and said, "I don't care."
"You should live honestly, give your parents two taels of silver every month, and make sure they treat you like a young lady."
Qu Weizhen also thought about it. After all, he lived here for many years, and he couldn't find a suitable house for a while, so he might as well live here.
The house was quietly bought by two brothers and sisters many years ago. Except for the sister-in-law, Qufu and Qumu didn’t know that the house belonged to them, and thought it was still rented.
So when Qu Weizhen approached her and said that she was willing to give them two taels of silver every month, she wanted to continue to live here, but they had to cover room and board, so Qu's father and Qu's mother happily agreed without even thinking about it.
Hide with the 2 taels of silver she gave.
Huang Qin was speechless for a while, and silently looked at San Guzi for a while, and finally turned her head to pretend she didn't see it.
My in-laws are still as easy to deceive as always, which is barely a good thing.
She was full of sweetness when she first got married, because her husband was not only good-looking, good in writing, and good in character, but when she saw her in-laws, a thunderbolt struck her head.
She knew that the Qu family was poor before, and she was ready to face her poor in-laws, but she did not expect her in-laws to be like that.
After serving tea to her parents-in-law, her mother-in-law hinted that she would take out the dowry and hand it over to them for safekeeping. The family was not wealthy. She, as a daughter-in-law, should take care of the housework. The food is enough for them to feel distressed.
At that time, Huang Qin’s heart was broken. The Qu family used to be poor, but how could they be poor now?
Although the third aunt and her husband can’t do business, they also have two shops in the capital. They can earn a hundred or so taels of silver every month.
When they got married, Qu Jingxi reported to her parents, saying that the two shops were owned by their sister and brother, so in fact, only one of them belonged to Qu Jingxi.
In addition to the shop, their sister and brother also bought two villages in the north. They are not big, but the annual income is still enough for the family to chew on. How can it be that the Qu family has only a few acres of land in their hometown and rents it out every year. The rent is not enough for a month's food?
