2. Male Supporting Roles in Period Stories (2)

In the courtyard of the Li family, Li Bishuang couldn't bear it and stretched her neck to wait at the door. When she saw Mother Li coming from a distance, she rushed to greet her and asked anxiously: "Mom, what's going on? Has the Duan family agreed? "

"I promised, I promised."

Mother Li was such a daughter, so naturally it hurt her bones. She kept saying: "Qing En is easy to talk to, so I agreed, but she said she would ask Hong Feng for her opinion. If Hong Feng has no objection, the matter can be settled."

"What else are you asking?"

Li Bishuang has been in a state of anxiety since she came back from rebirth. She wants to marry into the Zhou family immediately, for fear that something will go wrong, "Isn't Hongfeng the most obedient? What's more, Duan Qing'en is good-looking and her family is rich, so what else can she choose!" "

According to her idea, although the Duan family will have a hard time in the future, isn't it pretty good now? Especially when compared with the Zhou family, it looks even better. She gave up such a good marriage to Li Hongfeng, and Li Hongfeng should be grateful to her.

Mother Li had similar thoughts. Although she didn't know why her daughter wanted to marry into the Zhou family, in her opinion, this marriage change was a first-class good thing for her niece. How could she not agree?

However, Li Bishuang was still worried that Li Hongfeng would not agree. After all, Zhou Jiaming was good-looking and Li Hongfeng had a serious engagement with him before. There was no guarantee that she would not like Zhou Jiaming.

After thinking about it, she felt that it was not safe. She gritted her teeth and said to her mother: "Mom, I have Jiaming's child in my belly. What will I do if Hongfeng doesn't agree? You have to help me later."

Mother Li happily agreed. Of course she loved her daughter more than her niece.

So when Li Hongfeng returned to Li's house with tired steps, she found an aunt who talked to her about the difficulties at home.

"Our family just grows food in ordinary fields. We can't bear the burden of you and Bishuang these years. Bishuang is okay. He doesn't go to school anymore. He can supplement the family income by helping with work at home. Hongfeng, you I still have to go to school, have lunch at school, and go to college in a big city. My family really can’t afford this money.”

"I have discussed with your uncle, and according to your grandfather's wishes, let your sister go to the Zhou family, and you to the Duan family. The Duan family is rich, so you can still go to college and won't be delayed by your family. If I went to the Zhou family. The Zhou family is already poor. How can they afford college students? Hongfeng, don’t you think so?”

Li Hongfeng listened silently. She did not say that she had remembered the incident when her parents passed away and knew how much compensation the other party had paid. The money could have supported at least ten of her when she grew up and went to college. She did not say that she knew that the Li family was building a new house. Whose money was used? Not to mention the fact that she had washed, cooked, and fed pigs and chickens since she moved into the Li family. When she grew up, she went to work in the fields with her uncle, not to mention these.

Both her eldest uncle and her aunt felt that she should be grateful that they could raise her as an orphan. Li Hongfeng was grateful, but it was difficult for her to have any deep feelings for her eldest uncle and aunt.

As for why such an incident happened this time, they all lived in the same house. Li Bishuang's abnormality could not be hidden from Li Hongfeng, but at that time she thought that Li Bishuang and Duan Qing'en had always been in a good relationship, and it was probably Duan Qing'en who went out to see her, and nothing happened. , unexpectedly, she saw Zhou Jiaming.

Li Hongfeng did not refuse, and only said: "If the Duan family agrees to support me in college, I will agree."

Seeing that she agreed, Mother Li's face immediately burst into laughter and she kept promising: "Don't worry, he will definitely agree!"

Even if the Duan family doesn't agree, they can still offer it. Anyway, just let both parties nod first and cover up the matter of Bishuang safely.

Li Hongfeng agreed, and Li's mother immediately started running around to make arrangements. She was not as busy as Zhou Jiaqin on the Duan family side, but she also set the wedding date.

Ye Cuixiang sent Mother Li away and turned to her son: "I said that Li Bishuang must have something to do if the date is arranged in such a hurry. I went to inquire about it yesterday. In this period of time, Li Bishuang ran to the city eight times. Sister-in-law Chen from the next village also said that she saw Li Bishuang and Zhou Jiaming coming back together, but they separated again when they reached the road. Why did the old man of the Li family get confused? Damn it! It was clearly her Li Bishuang who was eating the rice in the bowl. If you are in such a hurry to get married, you might even have a baby in your belly!"

Duan Qingen is packing up the clothes in the house. There is no such thing as purchasing goods in a small place. When selling clothes, the Duan family distributes the fabric first, and those who get the fabric then take the finished clothes and get money. Ye Cuixiang usually distributes them to the village. This way, she can make money with peace of mind and gain good popularity in the village, killing two birds with one stone.

Now that this batch of clothes has just been collected, the mother and son have to sit in the room, sort out each piece one by one, and then label it. Duan Qingen is a big man, but he does things very neatly, while his hands are doing the work quickly. , while responding to her mother: "Anyway, Hongfeng is marrying me now, as long as it's not Hongfeng who has the baby."

However, Ye Cuixiang still felt uncomfortable. The daughter-in-law she had agreed to secretly had a relationship with someone else and now she had to change someone. When had she ever felt so aggrieved, "Hey, why do I still feel so embarrassed in my heart? How many good things did we give to Li Bishuang this year?”

She ended up doing well, eating food from her Duan family, wearing clothes from her Duan family, and running to get close to other men.

She felt uncomfortable and couldn't continue working. Duan Qing'en was not in a hurry and continued to work slowly by himself. "Mom, you said it yourself. Li Bishuang may have a child in her belly, which is why the Li family is so anxious to replace someone. If she really married her without telling us, we would be at a loss. "

"Besides, Hongfeng's grades are so good, he might be able to go to college in the future. Nowadays, college students are so popular. From my point of view, the Zhou family is the one who is at the disadvantage."

Ye Cuixiang was not feeling comfortable at first. Both she and the widow of the Zhou family lost their husbands at a young age, and they were both widowed with their sons. She had to be strong and endured a lot of hardships in order to support the family. Looking at the widow Zhou, she was so delicate. He can't do anything, and he will only ask others for help with a pitiful look when something happens.

This didn't bother her, but once when Ye Cuixiang was harvesting clothes, Widow Zhou who had taken the fabric sent her a mess of clothes that couldn't be worn at all and couldn't be sold for a penny. She asked the other party to compensate, she was so pitiful She wiped her tears and said that she did it because she saw all the girls in the city dressing like this.

Yes, she knew that her son went to school in the city and was promising. What does that have to do with Ye Cuixiang? When she handed out the fabric, she clearly stated what style of clothes she wanted and specifically gave her a reference. Widow Zhou did not follow her request. But thanks to Ye Cuixiang, she felt aggrieved.

Now the daughter-in-law, who is provided with delicious food, drinks and good things, has gone to be Widow Zhou's daughter-in-law. It's no wonder that she feels so comfortable.

Now that she heard what her son said, she thought a little, "Yes, Li Bishuang didn't do much work at home. She said before that our family didn't have much work anyway. When she got married, she could only go to the store to collect clothes. She is going to marry into the Zhou family now. That woman in the Zhou family is crying all over her clothes, and she has never seen Zhou Jiaming go to bed. I wonder what to do when she gets married. "

There must always be someone who endures hardship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Anyway, whether it is Li Bishuang who cuckolded his son before the wedding, or the widow of the Zhou family who pretends to be pitiful all day long, Ye Cuixiang doesn't like it. No matter which one of them suffers, she can do it. Watching the show happily.

After feeling comfortable for a while, Ye Cuixiang suddenly clapped her hands again: "They are all cousins ​​and live together. Will Li Hongfeng also learn from that Li Bishuang?"

Although she had a good impression of Li Hongfeng, she had never had much contact with him. Now that she had Li Bishuang, it was impossible to say that she didn't have a grudge in her heart.

Speaking of this, the things in Duan Qingen's hands stopped.

In the original plot, Ye Cuixiang did dislike Li Hongfeng because of Li Bishuang. She felt that she and the Li family shared their anger. It was also because she fell ill later. Li Hongfeng always took good care of her, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law got better. Unfortunately, it only took a while. Ye Cuixiang He died of illness.

He simply put down the clothes in his hands, raised his eyes and said to his mother seriously: "Mom, this time it was obviously Li Bishuang who caused the problem. If the Li family loves Hongfeng, they would just apologize to us and cancel the marriage, but they don't. They have to let Hongfeng replace Li Bishuang. They don't even think about it. Our family has regarded Li Bishuang as one of their own for so many years. How can they not be resentful if they suddenly change her? "

"Besides, Hongfeng is about to take the college entrance examination and will go to college in the future. At such an important time, they are eager to marry Li Bishuang into our family for the sake of her reputation. Aren't they worried that we will tie up Hongfeng and prevent her from going to college? "

Seeing that Ye Cuixiang had listened, Duan Qingen analyzed it again: "The Li family clearly did not take Hongfeng into consideration and asked her to suffer for Li Bishuang. No one is a fool. If they do this, Hongfeng will be heartbroken. "

Ye Cuixiang felt even more uncomfortable when she heard what was going on, "People say that marrying a daughter-in-law depends on her mother's family. Now it's better. Hongfeng people are nice. The Li family doesn't take her seriously. What needs does our family have in the future?" Where there are people to help, we definitely can’t count on them.”

Duan Qingen laughed directly. Ye Cuixiang asked him why he was laughing, and he said: "Mom, you are thinking wrong. The Li family has been poor for decades. What can it do to help our family? Her new house still requires compensation from Hongfeng's parents. It was built after the payment was made. Looking at Hongfeng, she has good grades and is efficient at work. She may be able to go to the city to work for the country in the future. It is a good thing that she has divorced the Li family. "

Ye Cuixiang couldn't understand, "How can it be a good thing? Without my mother's family to support me, my life will be so miserable."

"If you don't have your mother's family, you still have your husband's family." Duan Qing'en explained to Ye Cuixiang bit by bit: "Mom, think about it, Hongfeng's parents left, and the eldest uncle pushed her out as a scapegoat. She might be very sad. This Whoever treats her well at that time will be remembered by her for a lifetime. If we treat Hongfeng well, Hongfeng will definitely think about us. Isn’t it better than those daughters-in-law in the village who worry about getting things from their husband’s house all day long? You think this is the case? Is that a good thing?"

"And Li Bishuang is so eager to get rid of us. If Mom sees you treating Hongfeng, your daughter-in-law, she will definitely not be happy. We can be relieved."

"yes!!"

Ye Cuixiang seemed to have been opened up to the second line of Ren and Du, and she suddenly figured it out.

As a mother-in-law, what she wants most is to think about her daughter-in-law with all her heart!

As long as their daughter-in-law is of the same mind as them, they will take advantage!

She suddenly felt full of energy and immediately took the clothes to work. While working, she said to her son: "It seems that it is a good thing for Hongfeng to marry. Mom understands. Qing'en, just watch and wait until Hongfeng After she gets married, my mother will definitely treat her as her own daughter!"
