Chapter 42

, the fastest update to Travel Through Ancient Times: The House of Shrews!

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, people in the village go from house to house to pay New Year greetings to each other.

Tian Youliang, his wife and children went to the elders' house in the village to pay New Year greetings early in the morning. On the way back, he saw the other sons, wife and children enjoying themselves happily, which made him feel quite uncomfortable.

When the third child saw his friend greeting him, he said to his father: "Dad, I'm going to pick up firecrackers!"

"Well, go ahead and don't miss lunch!"

Looking at his son's bouncing back, Tian Youliang smiled happily. In about ten years, his son will get married. When he talks about getting married, he thinks of the people in the west of the village.

"That's outrageous!" he said bitterly.

Wang Pandi, who was following behind, shrank in fright: "What's up, the boss?"

Tian Youliang turned around and cursed: "It's all because you are such a lousy mother. What kind of daughter did you raise? If you don't come to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year, don't you recognize us?"

"His father and daughter return to their parents' home on the third day of junior high school. They have to wait for two days."

"snort!"

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the daughter who got married diagonally across the street returned to her parents' home. My uncle drove his wife and two boys in an ox cart. The cart was filled with large and small packages of gifts, and he came happily.

Tian Youliang leaned against the door with a pulled face, watching the family reunion.

What made him jealous the most were the gifts in the car, including wine, meat and food. The more important the gifts the daughter brought, the brighter her mother's face would be and she could show off when chatting later.

But as for his family, they married a daughter for nothing and paid for the house and land. If he didn't come today, it would be all in vain!

"I'm not going!" Tian Yuanyuan pulled away Meng Ji's hand, turned around and sat back on the bed, looking at Meng Ji angrily: "How can they be called parents!"

Meng Ji walked over: "Yuanyuan, no matter what, they gave birth to you after all."

"Meng Ji, please stay away from me." Tian Yuanyuan looked at him with disgust: "I'm afraid it will hurt me when lightning strikes you later!"

"Yuanyuan, you are joking again. How can there be thunder in the cold winter months?"

"There will definitely be thunder. How could you not come when your moral benchmark stands here!" Tian Yuanyuan said in a cold tone.

One is one, and two is two. Only a kind father and a son are filial. How can she love such unkind parents?

Tian Yuanyuan almost shed tears with a sore nose: "You don't know how they treat me! But I know!"

Tian Dahua was tortured before her death, which finally ended the relationship between Tian Youliang and Wang Pandi's parents.

But her hometown doesn’t owe them anything!

Meng Ji held her hand and persuaded in a low voice: "I know you feel bitter, but we are juniors after all. If you don't go, not only will your parents look bad, but we will also be accused of being unfilial... What do you think?

how?"

Tian Yuanyuan raised his eyes and looked at him: "You tell me, I'll listen!"

She wanted to see what excuse he wanted to use to kidnap her?

Meng Ji looked at his wife with gentle eyes and said warmly: "This is the first year that you and I are getting married. Yu Qingyu should go to your parents' house. Firstly, to avoid gossip, and secondly, they are my father-in-law and mother-in-law, so I should go there to visit.

.You also said that it was your father who brought me back from the mountain and was my savior. And you see, the house we live in is also their ancestral property. I have the highest filial piety. If they go to the Yamen to sue us for not doing so,

Filial piety, light responsibilities, strong actions, heavy responsibilities, and exile... Do you think we should go on this trip?"

After Tian Yuanyuan heard what he said, he had to consider Meng Ji's feelings even if he didn't want to: "I heard you, this time I am grateful for his life-saving grace. But just this time, I don't want to have anything to do with them anymore."

.”

He did not mention the kindness of his parents, and Tianyuanyuan no longer thought of them at all.

Meng Ji touched her head and asked, "Thank you for your hard work, what gifts should we prepare?"

Tian Yuanyuan lost interest: "You can take whatever you have at home!"

In the end, they carried a chicken, a knife of pork and some snacks they bought at that time. Tian Yuanyuan also took three taels of silver privately.

If you greet them with a smile and give them the money, you will have saved your life. If you make sarcastic remarks, the gift will be like feeding the dog, and you will naturally save money.

The two went to Tian Youliang's house with gifts.

Along the way, I met many girls who were returning to their parents' home. Some of them recognized Tian Dahua and looked at her with her lips curled up. Those who didn't recognized her were just curious to take a few more glances at the upright-looking Meng Ji.

After walking a few steps, a pretty woman stopped the two of them. She was wearing a light purple thin cotton-padded jacket, with a gilt hairpin on her head, and jade earrings on her ears. She had good features and looked well-dressed.

Very eye-catching among rough peasant women.

"...Who are you?" Tian Dahua thought for a long time but couldn't remember who this person was.

This woman's family is well off, and she is living a good life, not to mention being pampered. She and she are at opposite ends of life, obviously not on the same level. I don't know what to do with myself?

The woman smiled before saying anything and bowed to Meng Ji Yingying who was behind Tian Yuanyuan. Her expression was gentle, dignified, elegant and beautiful.

Tian Yuanyuan looked back at Meng Ji.

Meng Ji hugged his fists in return, and suddenly Tian Yuanyuan, who was standing in front of him, turned his head and looked at him with an unkind look.

"Ahem, let's go."

Meng Ji took Tian Yuanyuan's hand, walked around the woman and was about to leave.

The woman's soft voice rang out: "Young master, stay here. I am Tian Xu."

Tian Xu's family? Tian Yuanyuan seems to have heard this name somewhere. The women here are either of this family name or that family name, or they are someone's wife, etc. Very few people can call them by their names.

"That's the Tian family lady that matchmaker Xu said." When Meng Ji saw Tian Yuanyuan frowning, he knew she had forgotten this person, so he reminded her kindly.

Tian Yuanyuan looked at him with raised eyebrows: "You remember it quite clearly, why do you still miss it so much?"

"How could it be? You have wronged me. I just have a better memory... Let's go, your father should be worried! It's time for lunch soon?!" Meng Ji pulled her away and coaxed her in a low voice.

"It's not my father, he's your savior. Don't make a mistake. Lunch? You haven't woken up yet!"

The two of them left Tian Xu behind with just a few words and left.

Tian Xu's handsome face turned green and red, and her silver teeth were broken.

Tian Youliang has drank five bowls of tea, why hasn’t the disaster star come yet?

He was breathing heavily and was about to reach the limit of his endurance.

At this time, Wang Pandi came over from outside with an ugly face: "She, they are here!"

"Huh, when did this happen? Have you ever taken me seriously?" After saying that, he poured another cup of tea and his anger calmed down.

Wang Pandi rubbed his hands: "I, I'm going to cook..."

"What to cook! The family has too much money and no place to spend it! Collect the things and tell them to get out!"
