Chapter 46 Steps
After listening to Yan Wenxiu's words, Daohua paused and remained silent for a long time, then said: "Brother, I don't want to see my parents quarreling, but since the thing was specially given to me by my uncle, if I take the initiative now,
Wouldn’t that let down my uncle’s loving heart?”
"Also, the reason why my mother is like this is to protect me. If I stand up now and say no, will it be considered that I have failed my mother's heart and love?"
"This..." Yan Wenxiu was stunned. He only wanted to prevent his parents from getting into trouble. He didn't think much about anything else. After hearing Daohua's words, he felt that it made sense. He didn't know what to say for a while.
OK.
Seeing that his eloquent elder brother was speechless by his elder sister, Yan Wenkai immediately looked at Daohua with starry eyes.
Big sister is amazing!
Although his eldest brother looks gentle and elegant, he always talks about the same truth. Several brothers and sisters in the family have never gained any advantage in words in front of him.
Just like when he doesn't like to study, he is often said to doubt life. He feels that if he doesn't study hard, he won't be able to live in this world.
Although the eldest brother means well, he is very tired from being watched over all the time.
Now that he saw his eldest sister talking about his eldest brother, he really wanted to jump up and clap his hands.
Unfortunately, Yan Wenkai didn't get excited for long, and Yan Wenxiu glared at him, and he immediately became intimidated.
Yan Wenxiu looked at Daohua again: "Sister, it's just a few pieces of material. It's not as serious as you said. I think you don't want your parents to be unhappy because of this trivial matter, right?"
These words made Daohua feel a little uncomfortable.
She actually doesn't care much about the materials sent out. For her, the clothes she wears only need to be comfortable, but she cares about her uncle's thoughts and Mrs. Li's attention to her.
Besides, her cheap dad distributed the New Year’s gifts from the Li family without even asking her mother. Isn’t this a form of disrespect for his wife?
If she stands up now and says she doesn't want the material, she can settle the matter, but this premise is based on hitting Mrs. Li in the face.
Seeing that Daohua was silent and didn't speak, Yan Wenxiu frowned and glanced at the main courtyard gate. He saw a figure approaching and was worried that things would get serious.
Now, the matter is just a little conflict between Yan Zhigao and his wife. As the saying goes, a couple fights at the end of the bed. As long as the matter does not go out of the main courtyard and the door is closed, any solution will be fine.
But if ginseng from other courtyards comes in, things will be in trouble.
His father has always been concerned with saving face. Once he feels embarrassed in front of his family, his mother's life will not be easy.
Yan Wenxiu spoke again: "Sister, it's almost the end of the year. This is your first time celebrating the New Year with everyone. You don't want to make everyone unhappy, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Daohua immediately raised her head and snorted: "Brother, what you said makes no sense. Why is it that I am making everyone unhappy? Please explain the reason, so that my sister can listen attentively."
Yan Wenkai saw that his brother and sister were blushing, so he immediately interjected: "Um, brother, I think my grandmother is watching over my parents' affairs, so we as children shouldn't get involved, right?"
As he said that, before Yan Wenxiu looked over, he turned to look at Daohua: "Sister, it's not the fourth brother who is talking about you. The eldest brother is like a father. Pay attention to the attitude of your words." After saying that, he winked at Daohua and said,
She apologized to Yan Wenxiu.
Daohua saw it, curled her lips, and turned her head away.
Yan Wenkai looked at his younger sister who was unwilling to apologize, and then at his elder brother who seemed to be angry, and felt a headache.
What to do?
He doesn't dare to mess with his brother, but he can't handle his sister. It feels so uncomfortable for him to be caught in the middle!
At this time, the first group of people entered the main courtyard.
It was Mrs. Wu who came, holding a piece of brocade in her hand.
Wu glanced at the three Daohua brothers and quickly stepped into the main room.
"Brother, I'm here to say thank you. I've never seen such a beautiful brocade. Thank you, bro, for letting me gain experience. However, I have to return this brocade to you."
"Brother, don't worry, listen to me."
"It is the greatest blessing in my life that I can marry into the Yan family. My family is poor, but my elder brother and sister-in-law have never disliked me and always think of me. I am very grateful."
"However, my family knows my own business, and I am used to doing menial work. Clothes made of this kind of material really don't match me. Fortunately, now I have followed my mother and the head of the family to the county town, and I don't need to do anything at ordinary times.
After doing it, I can take good care of it. I think I will definitely be able to wear clothes like this in the future."
"But I heard that you can't keep new materials like this, otherwise they will become obsolete, so I thought, how about using them to make clothes for Daohua first? I'll have better ones later.
Even if my sister-in-law doesn’t give it to me, I’ll come over and ask for it with licking my face.”
Wu's words reached the ears of the three Daohua brothers and sisters standing by the door.
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"I didn't expect that the third aunt who usually doesn't like to talk can be so talkative."
Yan Wenkai sighed, and so did Yan Wenxiu.
After hearing these words, he actually took care of his father's face and expressed the third family's gratitude to the first family.
I'm afraid his father and mother are very moved now, right?
Daohua glanced sideways at the two of them: "Don't underestimate people, okay? The third uncle and the third aunt are just not tactful enough. They are the kindest people at heart."
At this time, the people from the second room came.
Mrs. Sun walked into the main courtyard with Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile. Seeing Daohua and the others standing outside the door, she asked Yihuan and Yile to stay outside, and she entered the main room holding two pieces of brocade.<
/p>
"Humph!"
Yan Yile snorted coldly at Daohua with a bad expression.
She really likes the two pieces of material that her uncle gave them. If she could make them into clothes, they might not know how they would envy her.
But now, because of her eldest sister, her clothes are in ruins.
At this moment, Daohua's attention was focused on the room, and she only glanced at Yan Yile's cold snort.
Yan Yihuan gave Yan Yile a warning look as soon as she spoke.
After that, although Yan Yile still had a nose and eyes, but she made no sound after all.
In the room, Mrs. Sun's words became even more beautiful.
"Brother, I like this material very much. I'm going to cut it into clothes as soon as I get it, but my family, Yihuan and Yile, don't want to do it."
"Guess why?"
"It's not that they don't like it, it's just that they feel that since Daohua has been in the county for so long, they haven't given any gifts to their eldest sister, so they are thinking about borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha, and using the material to make two clothes and give them as gifts.
To rice flowers?"
"When I heard it, I immediately raised my hands and agreed. No, I came over to my sister-in-law with the ingredients. Originally we were thinking of making it ourselves, but my sister-in-law's taste is not what I can match, so I have to trouble my sister-in-law with this material.
Now, we have to dress up our rice flowers beautifully."
"Yihuan, Yile is very sensible." This was Yan Zhigao's voice.
Outside the house, Daohua, Yan Wenxiu and Yan Wenkai listened to the words in the house and all looked at Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile.
Yan Yihuan also heard the uncle in the room exaggerating about her, she lowered her head in embarrassment, her cheeks and ears were a little red.
And when Yan Yile heard that she was being praised, she immediately raised her head proudly and glanced at the rice flowers arrogantly.
With the steps of Wu and Sun, the atmosphere in the main room of Yan Zhigao and his wife has improved a lot.
