Chapter 20 Narcissism

Author: Lonely Qingquan

Suddenly everything went dark, Ding Zhuang's big hand blocked Ding Xiang's eyes, "You can't look at the sun, it will hurt your eyes."

She lowered her eyes and looked around again, and the boys who were watching the excitement in front of the door gathered around her curiously.

They often heard the Ding brothers bragging about how good-looking their sister was. She was really good-looking, and she was fairer and tenderer than the little girls in town.

Ding Xiang also looked at them curiously. These children looked very poor, their clothes were thin and patchy, and two of them had runny noses from the cold. The little brother's clothes were also patched, they were pretty good, and they were well-dressed.

Thick and round.

Ding Zhuang saw that the weather was fine and his granddaughter liked it, so he hugged her and walked to the right.

"Let's go, I will take you to the third grandfather's house to visit."

He wanted to discuss with Dingshan about paying homage to his ancestors' graves tomorrow and about Ding Shuniang's return to her parents' home on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.

The second bedroom and the first bedroom do not have to deal with these matters. These matters are mainly handled and coordinated by the third bedroom.

When Ding Shuniang returns to her natal family, she always goes back to the third room, and invites the Ding family except Ding Xia to have dinner in the third room, and the three families share the money equally.

Not seeing Ding Xia is Ding Zhuang's bottom line. If Ding Xia goes to Erfang and his family, he won't go.

Of course Dingshan and Ding Shuniang were facing the second bedroom.

Ding Xia once made a big fuss, and her eldest brother refused to go there for several years to show her displeasure. However, Ding Shuniang would bring a lot of good things every time she returned to her parents' home, so Ding Xia had no choice but to let her husband and descendants go. Not only could she eat good food for free,

, and there are things to take home.

Although Ding Xiang couldn't see far, her eyes kept wandering along the way, looking with great interest.

Especially people who are close to her and can see clearly will be stunned. She knows that her eyes at this time will not cause displeasure to others, and they will treat her as a little baby who doesn't understand anything.

The villagers greeted "Shopkeeper Ding" and praised their granddaughter for her beautiful appearance.

Ding Zhuang loved hearing this and laughed extremely loudly.

He frowned and said modestly, "This girl is good at everything, but she is too handsome, too fair and tender. Oh, I am so sad, she is not like those dark and rough country girls."

Ding Xiang had goosebumps all over her body. Why are these words so teasing? They don’t match Grandpa’s tough temperament.

The flatterer trembled his lips. He wanted to praise him a few more times but was unwilling to continue.

Ding Zhuang said again, "My family is not only fragrant and smart, but also very smart. In the future, I want to be Feng Suzhen and the number one scholar in the female examination."

Then he walked away without acknowledging his relatives.

Ding Xiang saw the man covering his cheek, staring at Ding Zhuang's back with sour teeth and no anger.

If the person in front of him didn't have a red nose, he would rush forward and spit on him, which would be so annoying.

Ding Xiang is very embarrassed. Grandpa is too narcissistic, so narcissistic that it makes people disgusted. This is not to praise her, but to attract hatred, okay?

They came to a courtyard and heard a familiar voice, "Second uncle, oh, Xiao Xiangxiang has come out too. My father-in-law is at home, sitting in the second uncle's room."

It’s Ding Qin’s daughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhao.

"Second uncle."

Ding Qin also greeted.

They are pasting couplets in front of the courtyard gate.

Ding Qin suffers from asthma, is short and very thin. He cannot do heavy work and mainly works in the family shop. Dingshan is responsible for purchasing goods, Xie and Zhao are responsible for farming, and occasionally he hires day laborers.

When Dingshan heard the sound, he came out and said with a smile, "Second brother, come in for tea."

Mrs. Xie stretched out her hand and said, "Oh, Xiao Xiangxiang is here as a guest at Mistress's house. It's a rare visitor."

Ding Zhuang felt relieved about his sister-in-law and gave Lilac to her.

Ding Xiang was very familiar with the third grandma, and her little hands were around her neck.

The two brothers went into the house to talk. Xie held Lilac and walked around in front of the courtyard, watching her son and daughter-in-law post couplets.

The little cousin Ding Zhen was only two years old and could still walk unsteadily. She pulled on Mrs. Xie's clothes to see "Sister Xiangxiang".

Mr. Xie lowered his body to let her see.

Ding Zhen liked it very much and grabbed it as soon as she reached out.

Xie quickly said, "You can't catch her. Sister Xiangxiang is Second Grandpa's precious egg. If you break it, Second Grandpa will beat her up."

Ding Zhen was most afraid of the dark and tall Second Grandpa, who spoke like thunder, so she quickly retracted her hand. Nuonuo said, "Just look at it, don't touch it."

Xiao Nizi has the unique small eyes and pouty mouth of the Ding family, but they seem to have been modified. She also inherited the oval face of the Zhao family, has a bright smile, and is pretty and lovable.

Ding Xiang liked this little cousin very much and said "Ah" to her several times.

Ding Zhen jumped happily, "Sister Xiangxiang likes Zhenzhen."

At this time, several women came over.

A woman said, "Is this the granddaughter of Blacksmith Ding? Tsk tsk, Blacksmith Ding is not bragging, this girl is so beautiful. How could such a beautiful girl be born to this family? The ancestral graves are filled with smoke."

Xie said, "Have you never seen my second sister-in-law? She is handsome and fair, and can read and write. Her fragrance is just like her breasts."

Another woman said, "Blacksmith Ding is lucky to have married a beautiful woman and is rich. I heard that Blacksmith Ding was a gangster before he got married, and loved fighting and causing trouble. After marrying a beautiful wife, he suddenly changed for the better.

It's a pity that his wife was tortured to death by her mother-in-law at a young age."

One person said, "It's not the old woman's fault, it was Ding Xia who instigated it."

Another person said, "How can you blame my third aunt? If you want to blame it, blame Ding Blacksmith and Xue for being stingy. Several brothers live under the same roof. One room is so rich, the other is so poor that no one is happy.

.His wife died giving birth to a son, so why should she beat her brother and sister-in-law? They broke up the family, and I was so angry. What do you do with money? What do you do with money? The reputation of being unfilial has spread."

The woman who said this was close to Ding Xiang, and Ding Xiang could see clearly that she was about thirty years old. She should be Ding Xia's niece. Like Ding Xia, she married in the same village.

Mrs. Xie frowned and said, "You can't say that. The second wife's wealth depends on the second sister-in-law's dowry. The second sister-in-law has already used the money to build a house and buy land for her husband's family. The eldest sister-in-law will go there if she wants to lick her face. When the family is separated,

A big house means a big head. There is no such thing as that! My mother-in-law died of illness and had nothing to do with my second uncle."

When Xue was alive, Xie had already married into the Ding family. She watched helplessly as Ding Xia and her mother-in-law begged for more dowry from Xue, and at that time she wanted to drag her in to deal with Xue.

Mrs. Xie despised her mother-in-law and sister-in-law in her heart. Although she had made great contributions to the family, the person who received the favor was not satisfied and even drove the person to death.

Wu Xia said again, "Why doesn't it matter? The elderly people all said that the old lady was angry to death because of Blacksmith Ding. When he wanted his son to take the Tongsheng test, no one was willing to vouch for his son because he was unfilial.

.”

Ding Xiang understood that this was the reason why Ding Zhao did not take the imperial examination.

Some ancient people had perverted ideas. They asked for dowry from their daughter-in-law and tortured her to death. Just because she was the elder, the younger generation had to suffer. If she didn't accept it, it was unfilial.

Of course, Ding Xia's natal family must have contributed to Ding Zhuang's reputation. The surname Xia is a common surname in Beiquan Village, and most of the people in Beiquan Village have the surname Xia. The current Li Zheng is still the cousin of Ding Xia.

Ding Xiang stared at the woman and shouted "ah" several times, which meant "you are eating farts".
