Shen Xiu knew how good Shen's mother and Song were to her. Shen's mother wouldn't say it. As the elder sister-in-law, Song had loved this sister-in-law very much since she got married, almost treating her like a daughter.
Moreover, when Shen Xiu got married, Mrs. Song also paid for two pieces of furniture for her.
With Ms. Zou as a comparison, Shen Xiu felt extremely lucky to have a good sister-in-law, so she was naturally willing to repay her.
When Mother Shen heard that Shen Xiu also put a couple of coins into Mrs. Song's purse, she reached out to cover Shen Xiu's broken hair and said, "Xiu'er is sensible. I know it's not easy for your sister-in-law."
After saying this, Mother Shen suddenly coughed twice.
"Mom, isn't your cough okay?" Shen Xiu patted Shen's mother on the back and said.
Shen's mother said: "This is an old problem of mine, the root cause of which started when I was young. It's easy to get sick when the weather is hot or cold."
Shen Xiudao: "Mom, wait until I get back to buy something to moisturize the lungs. Although it can't get rid of the root cause, it can still have some effect."
Shen's mother had been coughing and wheezing for several years. Shen Xiu asked herself that there was no way to cure it, so she could only ask Shen's mother to eat more food that moisturized her lungs.
But Shen's mother waved her hand: "Don't spend money indiscriminately. You are married now, but you can't go back to your parents' house often. It will make people laugh. Mom, as long as you live well in your husband's house, that's all."
Shen Xiudao: "Then I can just buy some good things and have someone bring them back."
Shen's mother said: "You don't have to worry about me. Your eldest brother and your sister-in-law are very filial, and your brothers come over to see me from time to time. Just take care of yourself."
What Mother Shen said is true. Although not all of the five sons of the Shen family are promising, they are all filial.
Shen Xiu once again felt that she was so lucky to have such a natal family.
During lunch, Shen Huai called the other four brothers over.
The five brothers-in-law, the father-in-law, and Shen Huai's two sons, the men had a lively meal at the table and drank all the two jars of wine that Wei Yan had brought.
Fortunately, Father Shen felt sorry for his son-in-law and did not dare to let Wei Yan drink more. However, Wei Yan was not a good drinker and would feel dizzy after a few glasses of wine.
Shen's mother was very satisfied with Wei Yan's son-in-law. When she saw that her son-in-law was drunk, she immediately scolded Shen's father and five sons.
Wei Yan felt a little sorry and wanted to say that he was too drunk. Mrs. Song and Shen Xiu had already helped him up.
"Brother-in-law, don't pay attention to them. What mother said is absolutely right. How can they persuade you to drink like this? They know that you can't drink, brother-in-law, but they still let you drink so much." Madam Song said so much without waiting for Wei Yan to speak. , everything they said was their fault.
Wei Yan could only smile and say nothing. For the first time in his life, he was enjoying the treatment of a beloved son-in-law. He couldn't help but look at Shen Xiu beside him.
Shen Xiu was a little worried about his health, "If I had known earlier, I should have brought some sobering kudzu."
"I'm fine." Wei Yan couldn't express much in front of Mrs. Song, so he could only say this.
Shen Xiu was still a little worried, so she went to the kitchen to make a bowl of soup with vinegar and sugar, and brought it to Wei Yan.
Wei Yan was placed in the west wing where Shen Xiu used to live. Now he was lying on the old bed in the room with his eyes closed.
Shen Xiu sat down by the bed and pushed him gently, "Ms. sir, get up and drink some soup."
Wei Yan opened his eyes gently, but held Shen Xiu's right hand.
Shen Xiu's right hand trembled and she almost spilled the soup in her hand.
Wei Yan quickly took the soup before he spilled it all, smiled at her and said, "Axiu, why are you panicking?"
Shen Xiu said embarrassedly: "Who's panicking? You suddenly held my hand. I was just a little startled."
Wei Yan looked at her calmly and said, "Then why don't you dare to look at me?"
Shen Xiu said stiffly: "Who said I don't dare to look at you anymore." As he spoke, he faced Wei Yan's gaze.
Wei Yan had a smile on his face, and his black and white eyes were soaked in alcohol, adding a bit of depth.
Shen Xiu's face became hot after a while, and she simply fanned herself with her sleeves, "The weather is getting hotter and hotter."
Wei Yan looked at her with a smile: "Axiu, I never knew you were so funny when you were a child. You actually fought with your nephew just for a bite to eat."
Shen Xiu coughed lightly: "They must have told you again!"
These family members seemed to be afraid that she was not embarrassed enough, so they tried to wipe out all the past things for her. However, Shen Xiu had no way to refute, and had no choice but to let them laugh at her.
"They are serious. Those were things I did when I was a child. Why should I tell you?"
She looked back and saw the smile on Wei Yan's face, and then thought about the things Shen Xiu had done that would all be attributed to her in the future, and she couldn't help but feel a little angry, "Don't laugh, don't tell anyone these things in the future."
Her angry look was extremely cute in Wei Yan's eyes.
Wei Yan couldn't help but stretched out his hand, and just as he was about to take her into his arms, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, "Xiu'er, your second sister-in-law and the others are here too."
Shen Xiu responded, turned to Wei Yan and said, "Hurry up and drink the soup. I'll be back soon."
It was a pity that Shen Xiu rarely returned to her parents' home, so her sisters-in-law held her tight and talked for half an hour.
When Shen Xiu returned to the room, Wei Yan had already fallen asleep.
When Wei Yan woke up, Shen's mother had already made dumplings with several daughters-in-law.
Dumplings are Shen Xiu's favorite dumplings stuffed with leeks and pork. They have thin skins, big fillings, and lots of oil and water.
Shen Xiu knew that it was rare to eat meat at home, so naturally she was reluctant to eat more. She only ate one bowl and put down her chopsticks.
Shen's mother was still afraid that her daughter would not have enough to eat, so she insisted on letting them take away some dumplings. Shen Xiu finally gave up the idea and talked with her for a while. Shen's mother was still afraid that the road would be difficult to walk after dark.
Get them on the road before the sun turns west.
Shen Xiu said goodbye to these family members and followed Wei Yan back with a basket in her arms. The basket was full when she arrived, and it was also full when she returned. There were salted eggs pickled by Shen's mother herself, some vegetables from the ground, and
Song made some tiger-head shoes, tiger-head hats and the like.
When Shen Xiu saw these things that Song brought over, Shen Xiu's face turned red to the roots of her ears.
Mrs. Song saw her shy look and teased her a few words, asking her to go back and live a good life with Wei Yan and try to have a fat boy in the next year.
Shen Xiu didn't know if Wei Yan heard it, but she didn't dare to look at him for a long time.
Now that the two of them were on the road together, Shen Xiu felt embarrassed whenever she thought about what was in the basket.
However, Wei Yan didn't seem to be aware of it. When he saw the beautiful scenery on the roadside, he asked her to enjoy it together.
The other party was so indifferent, Shen Xiu tried his best to pretend to be calm and chatted with him for a few words.
After finally reaching the door of the house, Shen Xiu followed Wei Yan into the yard and saw Yang and Wei's father enjoying the shade in the yard.
Shen Xiuzheng took the things in the basket into the house without thinking, and Daya ran over, "Second Aunt, why did you come back?"
After Da Ya ran over, she noticed the things in the basket and picked up a tiger-head shoe, "What is this?"
Shen Xiu's face turned red and she quickly took the tiger-head shoes from Daya, "It's nothing, just a pair of shoes."
Yang's eyes were very good, so of course she recognized what they were, so she called Daya over, "Don't move, Daya, those are tiger-head shoes made for children."
"Children's tiger-head shoes." Da Ya asked innocently, "So, the second aunt is about to have a child, just like my mother was pregnant with a baby?"
