Chapter 50 Mrs Qi
It’s not that difficult to find out if Qi Tao knows about this matter, so he can find a way to reveal it to him and see his reaction.
But this matter is not so simple. The first person to test can’t be Yang Yi herself. If she went and Qi Tao knew about these things, not only might he not get a real response, but he might also be seen through. I insisted that I didn’t know, and as soon as I cried and begged, the matter was over.
Secondly, the tempter must not only befriend Qi Tao, but also favor Yang Yi. Finding someone who is familiar with Yang Yi, but not so familiar with Qi Tao, is too abrupt and easy to detect clues. And if you find someone who is familiar with Qi Tao and is not strong enough to talk to Yang Yi, it is easy to be turned against by Yang Yi’s army.
So the question is, who is familiar with Qi Tao and still has a strong relationship with Yang Yi?
Don’t think it’s a simple requirement, it’s really not easy to find such a person. Nowadays, although it is not important that men and women have different seats at the age of seven, the idea that men and women are different still exists, not to mention that there are husbands and wives in the family area. What is the matter with you, a big man, walking so close to someone else’s daughter-in-law? This one is not good, but it is a matter of life style.
In addition, because Yang Yi’s mother-in-law was very careful about her image and never said bad things to her outside, the person she was looking for couldn’t live too far from Yang Yi’s house, otherwise Qi Tao could guess that it was Yang Yi who was looking for her. , followed by the above problem.
But in this way, the people who can be found are very limited.
After hearing this, Yang Yi couldn’t help but smile bitterly: “I never thought that there would be so much calculation between husband and wife.”
Lin Wei said: “Whether you want to calculate so much depends on whether you care about him or not.”
If Yang Yi didn’t care about Qi Tao, she could not be so complacent and stab the matter directly. If Qi Tao handled it properly, he would live with him sincerely.
Don’t think that husband and wife should be frank with each other. In fact, husband and wife have never had a heartfelt relationship in their entire life. As long as the marriage lasts long enough and guards against each other for a lifetime, it will be a golden marriage and a silver marriage to the outside world.
But Yang Yi couldn’t do it. She married Qi Tao because she liked this person. For so many years, I have been filial to my mother-in-law and raised my brother-in-law for this person.
Because she cared, when she was uncovered and returned to that house, she started tossing and turning, trying to find out whether there was deception in their marriage.
Since she wants to figure it out, she has to calculate these things, otherwise she will be found out, and she will never get the answer, let alone know his sincerity.
Yang Yi took a deep breath and said, “I understand.”
“Then who are you going to seek out?”
Although Yang Yi was confused, she is not a person without ideas. After she made up her mind, she quickly decided on the candidate: “Look for Sister Liu, our family is next to each other, and her family, Lao Xing, is familiar with Qi Tao.”
…
Because the two families were next to each other, they went directly to Liu Dan’s house to discuss this matter, which would inevitably be seen by Qi Tao, so it was Lin Wei who went to Liu Dan’s house to call.
Just after dinner was over, although the sun hadn’t completely gone down, the evening breeze was already a little cool, and many people in the family area were enjoying the coolness in the yard.
The yard where the two families are located is no exception. The residents either stand or sit together to chat together, basically a circle for men and a circle for women. Qi Tao and Liu Dan’s husband Xing Dong were together. Because of their wives, they both knew Lin Wei. Qi Tao asked in surprise, “Why did you come here, Comrade Lin? Didn’t Liu Dan come to see you?”
Lin Wei smiled and said, “She’s talking to Sister Deng. I’m here to find Sister Liu.”
These women are not simple. First, they put down the housework together, went shopping and watched a movie, and came back with swollen eyes from crying, which attracted everyone in the family area to talk about it for several days.
Later, everyone made a hat. He saw that the hat was not much more practical than a straw hat, but the women in the family area liked it very much. Now everyone wears a sun hat.
Not only the women, but also the children, who now wear a yellow hat.
The reason why it is a yellow hat is mainly because the eyes and mouth of the little yellow duck are embroidered in the city, which is a test of needlework. And needlework is really not something everyone can do. Just like his wife, it is no problem to sew clothes, but embroidery is really difficult for her.
But if his son accepted the truth, he wanted a little yellow duck, not even one eye or one mouth, and he cried for several days. The trouble caused his wife to have a headache, so he had to go to Zhou Jianhai’s wife for help, and then he coaxed his son.
At that time, there were many families in the same situation in the family area, but not everyone was embarrassed to ask for help, and secondly, not everyone was willing to help Deng Xiangyun, so many children actually wore yellow sun hats. And those parents who can embroider, do not have the appearance of flowers, and they may not be so expressive when embroidered.
Therefore, seeing a few of them getting together and calling his daughter-in-law on purpose, Xing Dong jokingly asked, “What good ideas have you come up with?”
“It’s a bit of a plan, but I haven’t written a word yet, so I can’t tell you.” Lin Wei said half-truths.
“It’s still quite mysterious.” Xing Dong smiled and told Lin Wei that Liu Dan was washing dishes in the kitchen.
Lin Wei thanked her and walked into Xing Dong’s house.
It wasn’t the first time she came here. She was already familiar with the layout of their house. She didn’t need to look any further and went straight into the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Liu Dan had just finished washing the dishes, and was wiping the counter with a rag when he saw Lin Wei come in and asked, “Why are you here?”
“I have something to discuss with you.” Lin Wei leaned against the door and said Dujia.
While cleaning the desk, Liu Dan said, “Well, you say.”
“Go to my house and talk, it’s not convenient to talk about it in your house.”
“What’s the matter, it’s so mysterious.” Liu Dan and Xing Dong are indeed a couple, and they said the same thing, “Then wait for me for two minutes, I’ll wash my hands and go with you.”
Lin Wei responded, watching her clean the desk, sweep the garbage together, and then go to the bathroom to wash her hands.
When he came out of Xing’s house, he ran into Mrs. Qi who came out of the house next door, and Liu Dan smiled and said hello.
Although Mrs. Qi is mean to Yang Yi, her daughter-in-law, she is not only not mean, but also has kind eyes, round face and big eyes, she smiles first when she sees people, and her voice is gentle and gentle: “You are this Going out?” He smiled and asked who Lin Wei was.
She had been on the island for less than half a month, and she only recognized the people around her as familiar, and had never met Lin Wei.
Liu Dan introduced: “This is Lin Wei, the military sister-in-law that Yang Yi and I are familiar with.” He also introduced the identity of Mrs. Qi to Lin Wei.
Although Lin Wei didn’t like the old lady, she still greeted people, “Hello, auntie.”
“Okay, look at this girl, she looks really watery.” Mrs. Qi’s face was cheerful, as if she just remembered and asked, “Didn’t Taozi’s daughter-in-law come to you just now?”
Lin Wei said: “She went to find me, but the military sister-in-law next door to my house was looking for her, so she went over.”
“She doesn’t have a job, so what can I do with her?” Mrs. Qi muttered.
Mrs. Qi’s muttering was not loud, but Lin Wei was only three steps away from her, so she could hear it clearly. She raised her head and glanced at Qi Tao on the other side of the yard, laughed and said loudly, “Auntie, what are you saying? Yes, friends can talk about big things and small things, why do you have to have a job to get together to talk.”
Mrs. Qi is a bit of a bully and fearful of hardship. Seeing that Lin Wei is not very good at speaking, she quickly explained: “Comrade Xiaolin, you have misunderstood. I just said it casually, there is no other meaning.”
Qi Tao on the other side of the yard heard that their voices were not right, and came over and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Mrs. Qi said quickly: “It’s nothing, it’s just that I didn’t speak carefully, which made Comrade Xiaolin misunderstood. I explained it clearly just now.”
Mrs. Qi’s words seem to be taking the responsibility on herself, but she is an old lady who just came from her hometown, and Lin Wei had an argument with her because of a misunderstanding, even if she was a bit bully. What’s more, it was Qi Tao who came to ask. As a son, of course, he would favor his mother.
Seeing Qi Tao frowning, Lin Wei said with a smile, “I’m not mistaken, it’s fine, just don’t say this in front of Sister Yang, auntie. After she gets married to your family, she will not only be filial to you, but also take care of you. Brother-in-law, after joining the army and for the sake of the child, she has not been to work, so she will be sad if she hears what you said.”
When Qi Tao heard the words, his eyebrows wrinkled even more, but this time, instead of pointing at Lin Wei, he asked in a deep voice, “Mom, what did you just say?”
“I do not…”
Mrs. Qi wanted to deny it, but she only said two words before Liu Dan robbed her: “My aunt asked Wei Wei where Xiao Yang was, and Wei Wei replied that Xiao Deng had something to do with Xiao Yang and called her over. Then my aunt said, Xiao Yang doesn’t have a job again, so there is nothing serious about finding her.”
Mrs Qi panicked, looked at Qi Tao and said, “Son, I, I just said it casually, nothing else.”
“As the saying goes, ‘A good word is warm in winter, and a bad word is cold in June’. We are outsiders. It would be nice to listen to you and explain it clearly, but Sister Yang has worked hard for your family for so many years. Let her hear this kind of words. How sad should it be?” Lin Wei stopped when she clicked, “Commander Qi, we still have something to do, so let’s go first.”
After saying that, regardless of Qi Tao, he took Liu Dan and walked out.
However, after passing them by, Qi Tao turned around and shouted to the two of them: “Can you please not tell Xiao Yang about this first, I want to tell her myself.”
Lin Wei didn’t answer immediately, just looked at Qi Tao silently.
Qi Tao did not evade, and explained with a frank expression: “I will have a good talk with my mother and ask her to apologize to Xiao Yang.”
The old lady Qi standing next to her changed her face: “Tao Zi!”
Only then did Lin Wei speak: “Okay, I promise you.”
…
As soon as they walked out of the yard where the two families were located, Liu Dan took Lin Wei’s hand and asked, “Did you see Xiao Yang’s mother-in-law’s expression just now? Tsk tsk, I usually see her smiling, I thought she was He has a very good personality, and as a result… it seems that Xiao Yang and her mother-in-law are not so harmonious.”
“Have you never heard of it?”
“Hear what?”
“Sister Yang’s mother-in-law always scolds her when Battalion Commander Qi is away.”
Liu Dan was puzzled: “Is there such a thing?”
Lin Wei asked, “The two of you are next to each other, don’t you hear at all?”
Liu Dan stopped in his tracks and tried to recall: “Twice when I went out, I heard their house was a little loud, and I knocked on the door to ask once, but then Granny Yang said he was scolding her son. I asked Xiao Yang, she didn’t deny it, and I didn’t think much about it.” Liu Dan’s eyebrows twitched, “Could it be that Xiao Yang was being trained at that time?”
Lin Wei said solemnly, “Maybe.”
Liu Dan’s face changed, but after thinking about it, he shook his head and said, “Impossible, I think she is usually very good to Xiao Yang, and if it was Xiao Yang who was being disciplined, why didn’t she say anything when I asked?”
“If she was really nice to Sister Yang, why would she say that kind of thing just now? She said it casually and didn’t think much about it, but think about it, would you casually say that to Sister Yang?”
Liu Dan shook his head without hesitation: “Of course not.”
There is not a single dirty word in Mrs. Qi’s words, but the understatement reveals contempt for Yang Yi, even contempt. She feels that she has no job and doesn’t understand anything, so her friends are looking for her, and what they want to talk about is not serious business.
If Mrs. Qi came and showed her dislike for her daughter-in-law, it would be fine for her to say this.
But Yang Yi has worked hard for their family for so many years. After Mrs. Qi went to the island, she praised Yang Yi everywhere, so that everyone in the family area thought they were model mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
And it is such a good mother-in-law, who looks down on her daughter-in-law at heart, how can she not make people feel cold all over?
Liu Dan couldn’t help shivering, grabbed Lin Wei’s hand and asked, “Do you think Qi Tao knows about this?” Before Lin Wei could answer her question, he said, “Looking at his reaction just now, he probably doesn’t know. ?”
“Hopefully.”
