Chapter 23 You want to go to heaven
Chen quickly made up his mind, “It’s not just about money.”
“It’s only been a few days since my eldest son left? The filial piety hasn’t passed yet, so you can count on his daughter-in-law! Is this something that people can do?”
“Needless to say, Yunjiao wants to keep the festival for Dalang, don’t make this idea.”
Mrs. Yang glanced at Mrs. Zhou, whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and said gloatingly: “Sister-in-law, this is my mother’s idea, and now, you even dare to scold my mother.”
Chen Shi didn’t know well, so he quickly made up for it, “Mother, that, I’m not talking about you, I’m talking about Erlang and his sister-in-law.”
Mrs. Zhou could have pretended to be deaf and dumb, but Mrs. Yang made her clear, and she lost face. She sneered at Mrs. Chen, “Who else do you see now?”
“Sanlang hasn’t even won, you’re crazy in this house!”
“One day, if Saburo becomes an official and earns you his life, you won’t be able to go to heaven!”
Mrs. Chen’s face was red and her ears were red, and she said calmly: “Mother, I really didn’t go to you.”
Gu Yunjiao wanted to say something for the Chen family, but she knew her position in this family, and she was very soft-spoken. This opening was likely to add fuel to the fire.
She couldn’t help but look at Jiang Youzhi.
Jiang Youzhi said at this moment, “Grandma, mother is fast-talking, how dare she disrespect you, don’t care about her.”
As usual, when Jiang Youzhi opened his mouth, the Zhou family would definitely give him this face.
Jiang Youzhi is famous, and his position in the family was second only to Mr. Jiang, and no one dared not listen to what he said.
But now because he has no exams, Zhou is still holding his breath.
She snorted coldly, “You are not much better than your mother, you are all the same!”
Jiang Youzhi lowered his eyes, and when he raised his eyes again, he smiled again, “As long as grandma can calm down, she can swear a few more words.”
Mr. Jiang coughed heavily at this time, “Don’t say a few words when you eat.”
He couldn’t just watch the old woman offend Saburo.
Although Saburo didn’t take the exam this time, but in three years, with Saburo’s knowledge, it is a must.
This was not something he took for granted. It was a student from Fucheng who came to the county for inspection. After examining Saburo’s knowledge, he said in his own words, “With this son’s talent, he will be successful in autumn, and he will be sure of spring in the coming year.”
Therefore, the whole family is sure that Saburo will become an official in the future, even though he is his own grandson, it is not easy to offend him.
The room fell silent, only the sound of chewing.
After eating, Mrs Chen walked into the house with her head down.
Gu Yunjiao quickly followed.
Chen entered the room and sat beside the bed sulking.
Gu Yunjiao went over and said softly, “Mother, I’m sorry, I made you feel wronged today because of me.”
When people are wronged, they are most afraid of being comforted.
When Gu Yunjiao said this, Mrs. Chen’s eyes were red.
She waved her hand and choked, “I don’t blame you.”
“This house was originally like this, I’ve seen it through long ago.”
She said with tears: “You don’t know how difficult it was for our mother and son when Dalang’s father died.”
“At that time, Dalang was twelve years old, and Saburo was only ten years old. He accidentally won the appreciation of the master Yuan in the village, and he would rather let him study without cultivating.”
“But even so, I don’t work at home. It is said that when Saburo went to study, one less farmer worked.”
“I was forced to die, and it was Dalang who said he would do the work of two people alone, so they reluctantly agreed.”
