Chapter 63 I am content

She put down the stone shovel in her hand, looked left and right, and then put the money and tickets back into Shen Meng's hand.

"Daughter-in-law Zhenping, what are you doing? I don't want this money ticket. You can take it back. Also, this candy, such a rare thing, take it back and give it to Mingkai's children. Can you bring something over, aunt?" I know that you are a sensible and reasonable person. My aunt is angry, but it is not directed at you. We are all fellow villagers and there is no need to be so polite. I am angry at your uncle, this old and immortal person. He went to help you. , I forgot to go to the county town to pick someone up, and I almost lost my job driving the cattle cart. Do you think I can help being angry? "

Shen Meng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment after hearing this. She had been sleeping at home until now and had no idea what happened at Uncle Guai's house. This made her feel even more embarrassed.

Many foreign workers in the village are eyeing Uncle Guai's job. He can travel to and from the commune, county town, and the Lujiacun production team for ten work points a day without having to work hard. Who wouldn't want such an easy job? want.

"I'm really sorry, Auntie. I, I didn't know about this, because you should have taken the money ticket for this. If it really caused Uncle Guai to lose his job of driving the oxcart, I would really be guilty, Auntie, like this "If you ask Uncle Guai to hand over one dollar to the production team, the village cadres won't say anything else. If there is anything else, I'll go find someone to talk about it."

Zhu Juying refused for a moment. Although she didn't **** her wife this time, she was afraid that someone would use it to gossip about the old man in the future.

"Okay, Wife Zhenping, my aunt is shameless and will take the money you gave me. But you can take back the ticket. I can't take it. I can't take the extra fifty cents either. It doesn't belong to our family. We can’t ask for any more.”

"Auntie, I'm not a victim. I came here to make money for you and get cotton coupons for you. But I heard Uncle Guaipiao say that the girl from Xiangxiang is engaged and will get married next year. The married girl will have to pay for it no matter what. It’s not another decent quilt. The tickets I gave you and Uncle Guai will be the ones spending the money when the time comes. Zhenping will send some of this and that ticket every month. I won’t be able to use them all. Just take it and treat it like it. It’s our family that adds makeup to Xiangxiang girl.”

Zhu Juying looked at Shen Meng, who was smiling and speaking softly, and felt reluctant to hand over the cotton coupons. Her daughter was nineteen, and she was engaged to a pretty good family. She was just such a precious daughter. She inquired back and forth several times about the character of her in-laws, and only agreed after knowing that they were a good family.

Although the old man in her family drives bullock carts in the production team, he is still a farmer after all. The family has no financial resources. The cotton quilt he saved for his daughter was taken away by his newly married daughter-in-law two years ago.

At that time, her family Xiangxiang hugged her and comforted her, saying that it was okay. Her family had nothing to do in her later years and would not let her get into trouble. This matter had been in her mind for several years, and she felt uncomfortable just looking at the child.

Now what Zhenping's daughter-in-law handed over was not a simple cotton ticket, it was her daughter's dignity!

"Okay, good boy, thank you, auntie. When your sister Xiangxiang gets married next year, you have to come over for a wedding drink!"

"Okay, I must come. Auntie, put these away and don't let others see them. It's getting late, so I'll be back."

"Hey! Go back!"

Zhu Juying took the money ticket and looked around, then quickly put the things in her arms, swept out the crushed sesame seeds in the mortar, put them in a porcelain bowl, and returned to the house with them.

After work in the evening, Lu Xiangxiang returned home with a **** on her shoulder. Her mother pulled her into the house. Behind her, Zhu Juying's daughter-in-law, Huang Maochun, saw her eyes rolling. She dropped the **** and was about to go over and listen to the corner.

"What are you doing? It's time to cook?" Lu Xingchang shouted to her.

"Don't worry." She yelled softly and ran over.

Lu Xiangxiang's sister-in-law Yao Jinzhu coughed twice and raised her voice: "Mao Chun, what are you doing? It's your turn to cook tonight. Hurry, the child will be hungry soon."

Listening to the sound in the room, Zhu Juying opened the door with a bang.

"What are you doing? Do what you have to do. Don't just look for trouble all day long. Xingchang, you should also take care of your wife, how she behaves."

Lu Xingchang opened his mouth and faced Huang Maochun's angry eyes without daring to let out a fart.

Seeing her son's dead look, Zhu Juying felt sick in her heart. When she was not married, her aunt was older than her younger sister and she said a lot of nice things. The whole family thought she was an honest and responsible girl, but they didn't expect to offend the whole family. Ghost, even his son has become a different person.

She was too lazy to say anything to them. It was useless no matter how much she said. Her daughter-in-law had already married and her grandson was born. What else could she do? She could just live in such a muddle. Huang Maochun, who didn't listen, became anxious.

"You old man treats me like an outsider. If you don't want to listen to anything, you have to go behind someone else's back. And you, Yao Jinzhu, you are a bunch of hungry ghosts reincarnated. Let me cook. I won't do it today. I Let’s see if the whole family would starve to death without me.”

"Mao Chun, don't say that. Let me go and finish it. Yesterday my little sister cooked it, and the day before yesterday it was my sister-in-law. Today it's our turn to cook."

"Shut up, go and cook. I don't care who will wash the clothes or coax the children. I've been working all day and I'm exhausted. I just want to eat ready-made food."

She snorted coldly, turned around and entered the house. Lu Xingchang saw Yao Jinzhu, whose eyes were red with anger, and sighed: "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, she just has this temper. Don't mind me. I, I'll go back to the house first." , Xiaodan will come back and sleep next to his mother, and he will be beaten."

Yao Jinzhu was so angry that her chest hurt. She never expected that her uncle, who used to be honest and slow in speaking and doing things, would now become such a loser.

"Who is this!"

Her parents-in-law, her husband and her child were all still hungry. She wiped her eyes and turned around and entered the kitchen.

In the room, Zhu Juying told Lu Xiangxiang what happened, and then handed her the cotton coupon for her to see.

Although Lu Xiangxiang felt sweet in her heart, she still pushed him back reluctantly.

"Mom, I can't take advantage of Sister-in-law Meng's family just because I'm getting married. I heard Brother Changhong say that the army doesn't give out many votes and allowances, and some soldiers even use their own allowances to supplement those who sacrificed their lives. What about the families of our comrades-in-arms? Soldiers have endured hardships and hardships while defending their homes and country. What do we have to worry about? I don’t want this. They didn’t give much as a betrothal gift, and I didn’t bring any dowry. To be fair, Sister-in-law Meng will still have to pay when the weather gets cold. The children in Mingyang are making winter clothes, and I’m afraid Brother Zhenping will save these cotton coupons. Mom, we can’t have them.”

"You are such a sensible girl, but you are so unlucky that we are a poor family. It's because your parents can't help you." Zhu Juying felt heartbroken.

"Mom, don't say such things. Many people don't treat their daughters as human beings. I haven't suffered at all since I was a child. I'm content. It's okay, mom. Even without a dowry, I can still live a good life." Lu Xiangxiang reached out and hugged her. Zhu Juying.

Over there, Shen Meng heated up pig's trotter soup. The soup was light and didn't smell much. When Lu Mingyang's children came home from school, she had already packed the steamed buns and soup and put them in her backpack.

"Mingyang, Mom has wrapped the steamed buns in a basket cloth and packed two lunch boxes with pig's trotter soup. When you take your brothers and sisters out, walk slowly and go around people so that no one sees them. Mom is at home. Waiting for you!”

"Hey, mother, don't worry. We have delivered it many times. We must deliver the rice to Brother Aman without anyone knowing."

When they were going out, they happened to meet Xie Jinghao, who was holding Xiaogang's hand. She saw that it was almost dark now, and Mingyang was still carrying a backpack. Mingliang and Mingfang were also following, and they were going out.

"Where are you going? It's getting dark. Don't run around!"

"Third Aunt, let's go take back the pigweed we shot after school. We know where to put it."

Shen Meng waved to her, and just as he brought the pig's trotter soup to her, she said: "These kids are so sensible, they even earned work points on the way back!"

Shen Meng: "."
