Chapter 164: Mrs. Song's plan failed
After a nap, Mrs. Song opened her eyes and felt a slight headache. After thinking for a while, she remembered that she was drunk.
She couldn't help laughing while lying on the bed. She didn't expect that she couldn't drink so much. She thought it was probably quite late.
So she got up from bed, tidied herself up, and then stepped out of the room.
In the living room, Song Lao Da, Song Lao Er, Liu Dajiu and his brother, Niu Lao San, Song Da Zhuang and a group of people were eating peanuts, cracking melon seeds and chatting.
Seeing Song Ersao coming out, Song Laoer smiled and said, "Are you sober?" Song Ersao nodded embarrassedly.
Uncle Liu laughed and said, "Little sister, don't drink with your alcohol tolerance in the future. You can't drink much and it makes you feel uncomfortable."
Song Ersao regretted hearing this and said, "I thought I would drink a little today because I was happy. I didn't know that I couldn't drink that much. I didn't drink much before."
"Now that I know, I'll learn my lesson next time." Uncle Liu replied. Sister Song found that there were only men at home, and the eldest sister-in-law and the children were not there, so she asked, "Where are the eldest sister-in-law and the others? Why don't they show up?"
Uncle Liu pointed upstairs and said, "They are all upstairs, playing mahjong." Sister Song went upstairs after hearing that.
The living room on the second floor was now full of people. My eldest aunt, my second aunt, Sister Cuihua, and Gancao were sitting cross-legged on the carpet playing mahjong around a low table.
The rest of Niu Sansao, Liu Zezheng, Qin Yuanyuan and the others gathered around them and watched intently.
Hearing the noise of Second Sister Song coming up, the eldest aunt smiled and said, "Are you awake? Are you feeling better?"
Mrs. Song replied sheepishly, "Okay, I'm really sorry."
My aunt turned her eyes back to her own cards and replied distractedly, "What's there to be embarrassed about? Mahjong is really fun. Do you want to play a round later?"
Liu Zezheng said in dissatisfaction, "Mom, it's not my turn yet."
Song Ersao smiled and said, "I won't fight with you. You guys play while I go look after the children." Then she went to Si Niang's room.
The door to Si Niang's room was open. When she entered, she saw a row of children sleeping crookedly on the bed. Fortunately, the bed was big enough.
They lay sideways together, Si Niang slept at the head of the bed, Qin Haoxi and Niu Zhuangzhuang slept at the foot of the bed, Niu Qianqian, Song Lan and Wu Niang slept in the middle.
The children were sleeping soundly, their little faces were rosy, and their hair was messy on their foreheads.
Song Sanniang was also resting in her room at the moment. She was teaching everyone how to play mahjong this afternoon and she also had to take care of a few children.
Children will definitely quarrel when they are together. I don’t know why, but a few of them started quarreling while playing.
After Song Sanniang taught everyone how to play mahjong, she was busy coaxing them. Everyone was not familiar with playing mahjong, so she had to run over from time to time to answer their questions. She was quite tired.
Mrs. Song suddenly discovered a problem, that is, her second and third sisters and their children were not there, so she went out to ask,
Sister Cuihua curled her lips and said, "Your mother-in-law called her away. I think it's not a good thing."
My aunt smiled and said, "You don't have to look at her face now, so why should you be afraid?"
Song's second sister-in-law thought the same thing, so she walked over and sat down next to her eldest sister-in-law to see how mahjong was played.
Here, Song Laoer's family was in a happy mood, but the atmosphere at Song Po's side was tense.
"Mother, what did you say?" Song Sangu asked in disbelief.
Mrs. Song spoke kindly to her sons, but that didn't mean she would be kind to her daughters. She regained her former demeanor and said confidently,
"I am your mother. If you don't think well of me, think well of your niece, okay? If she lives in your little brother's big house, they can look up to her."
Aunt Song said, "Mom, how can we split up the family? I live with my youngest son. Do you want to make your eldest brother get stabbed in the back?"
"I'm not going to live there alone, so I'm asking my eldest brother to live there too. How big is the house?
There are several empty rooms, one of which can accommodate two or three beds. It will be enough for your nephew to live in when he gets married."
Mrs. Song was just speaking casually, but after she said it, she felt that her idea was really good. Her previous regrets seemed to have never happened after she saw the good life of her youngest son's family.
Aunt Song San knew how much her sister-in-law hated her mother. Now her mother wanted to live in their house and invite her eldest brother's family to come as well.
She thought her mother was crazy. No wonder she felt like she was reborn after her sister-in-law was separated from her. If she wasn't her mother, she would have spit at her.
She thought of her younger son who still needed help from her sister-in-law, and she couldn't let her mother mess things up. She glanced at Song Chunhua and Song Qiushi who were standing on the side, and said coldly,
"Mom, it's rare for us to come back, don't listen to anyone's instigation and make trouble. Your life is not good now.
I know that I used to give you 200 coins every month, and I bought you meat and new clothes.
Now I give you only one ounce of silver a month. I heard from my elder brother that you can eat meat every day."
Mrs. Song was a little disapproving when she heard this. She had only thought about living in her youngest son's house before, but after hearing what her two granddaughters said,
He hired so many people from the village to work, and only paid me one or two taels of silver every month. As a mother, I didn't even get as much as the villagers.
Aunt Song saw that Mrs. Song didn't agree, and snorted coldly, "Mother, we came back this time for the sake of Big Brother and Little Brother. We all remember how you kicked us out of the house.
Do you think that if you treat your sister-in-law like that, she will let you live in her house? How did you treat her back then? Think about it yourself, if someone treated you like that, how would you treat that person?
If you want us to help you, forget it. If you continue to make trouble, I will never talk to you again, and we will never come back, and you will be happy."
Aunt Song also advised softly, "Mother, you have to know that one tael of silver a month is not a small amount.
In our village, there was a mother-in-law who treated her daughter-in-law badly. When the mother-in-law got old, the daughter-in-law starved her to death.
Her son only beat up the daughter-in-law, and at most people gossiped about her. To be honest, my brother and his wife have been very good to you."
Aunt Song was really afraid that her kind-hearted sister would stand on her mother's side. When she heard her say this, she felt that she was not that stupid.
Aunt Song warned Song Chunhua and Song Qiushi who were standing there, "Let me make it clear to you two, don't even think about instigating your grandmother to go to your uncle's house and cause trouble.
Now your second aunt and I are helping you find your marriage partner. If you still want to marry into a good family, you better behave yourself.
If you don't behave, I promise to marry you off to any village in the mountains. In those villages, there are often several men for one woman. Think carefully about it."
Song Chunhua and Song Qiushi shuddered when they heard this. They had heard about it before, from their mother.
Her mother threatened Sanniang at that time, saying that if she didn't obey, she would sell her to the mountains. When Second Aunt found out, she had a quarrel with her mother.
When I thought about how I would end up like this, and when I visited my mother before, I realized that her hair had turned a lot whiter, she had lost a lot of weight, and she looked like she had been through a lot.
Thinking of the scene where she told them to be obedient, the two of them immediately gave up the idea of doing something.
Song Ersao didn't expect that her family just wanted to help her two aunts. By letting their children work in the store, she could save herself from a small trouble. However, even without them, Song Ersao would not be a soft persimmon anymore.
