Even though she was her biological daughter, even though she hadn't seen her for two years, even though she was getting married tomorrow... Yu's mother still couldn't control herself and gave her two slaps.
The two slaps were neither painful nor itchy. Yu Xiangqin thought it was Yu's mother brushing off the ashes for her and didn't react at all.
Wen Qingqing and Wen Ruanruan, who were on the side, looked at Yu Xiangqin with their eyes, nose, nose and heart, with the same gentle smile on their lips. They had rolled their eyes at Yu Xiangqin countless times.
If what they said before was a compliment, now they felt from the bottom of their hearts that Yu's mother had a really good temper - if it had been a mother with a bigger temper, Yu Xiangqin would have been beaten to death as soon as she learned to speak.
They were silent, but Widow Zhao said, "What? My mother-in-law is hungry? Let's go eat quickly. They haven't prepared anything to eat here, so let's go to Hongzi's house to eat."
She was talking to Wang Hong outside just now, and when she entered, she only heard Yu Xiangqin saying that she was hungry.
My mother-in-law is hungry, is she okay? You can't let her go hungry if she doesn't eat!
Mother Yu was speechless.
She really doesn't worry about any conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for her eldest daughter now. The temperament of these two people is more like that of mother and daughter than mother and daughter.
Yu's mother suddenly began to feel sorry for her son-in-law, whom she had never met.
How will this child live in the future...
Before Yu's mother came back to her senses, Widow Zhao had already walked out of the educated youth spot on her arm.
"Mom, look, this is the headquarters of our brigade. The match factory in the provincial capital has built a branch factory here. Our brigade and the brigade next to it can paste matchboxes. Look at the warehouse next to it, it belongs to the match factory... "
"Look at the newly built compound. That is the primary school in our village. They hold literacy classes in the evening... The principal of our village's primary school is really good. She used to be the principal of the town's high school, but she retired because of poor health. She came down, no, a new primary school was built in the village, and she came to our place to be the principal..."
"Our brigade also has a production team from a textile factory. They make hair flowers for them. Each hair flower is paid 10 cents. Xiangqin and I are both here... Oh yes, Xiangqin is not only a literacy class teacher now, but also a village teacher. A young teacher is given an allowance of five yuan a month and ten work points a day..."
Mother Yu listened and watched, full of surprise.
She also worked at gluing matchboxes for two months. She did it every night after get off work and earned an extra ten yuan a month. However, she was later replaced by the sister-in-law of a team leader in the match factory.
Yu's mother was a little confused: "Can your whole team do the job of gluing matchboxes?"
If this is a slack time for farming, the whole family can earn thirty or forty a month doing this work, right? In a small place like theirs, the income is almost as high as that of a two-income family.
"Yes," Widow Zhao nodded with a smile, "We will paste the matchboxes, box them and package them, and then send the finished products to the supply and marketing cooperative. We will pay you five yuan for 10,000 boxes."
"This is really not bad." Yu's mother said sincerely, "You can earn more than ordinary workers, and you can also earn points for your work."
"No," Widow Zhao stopped, took Yu's hand and said, "Mom, don't worry, my family can't compare with yours, but Xiangqin will definitely not be hungry in my family... I can do hairdressing in one day now. Earning 70 to 80 cents. My son's legs are not yet strong enough to do heavy work. He can earn 10 to 20 yuan a month by pasting matchboxes. Xiangqin has studied and is educated. From now on, she will take care of the family's money. "
"I plan to save some money in another year or two, or let the couple build a new house to live in, or find Xiangqin a job as a public teacher. Do you think that's okay?"
Widow Zhao’s loud talk was just the preparation for the last two sentences.
Her family had a weak financial background. Zhao Zhuangshi had a disease, so the Yu family spent 200 yuan to pay for it. Widow Zhao was afraid that her in-laws would be unhappy, and she was also afraid that they would be singled out for being from the countryside. She really couldn't think of anything special about her son. If a city girl insists on marrying him based on his merits, the only thing to consider is money.
Widow Zhao was very sincere, looking eagerly at her in-laws in the city, eager to be recognized.
Mother Yu was really moved. She held Widow Zhao’s hand and called her warmly: “Sister-in-law, I understand what you mean. Don’t worry, I agree that Xiangqin is married.
Although I also hope that the young couple will live well, but don't talk about letting them live by themselves in the future. Zhuangzhi is your son, Xiangqin and he should provide for you in your old age. "
Widow Zhao rubbed her eyes, looked at Yu's mother with red eyes, and used a little more strength to hold her hand: "Sister, don't say anything anymore, just watch how I treat Xiangqin in the future... ...If I can’t help this girl, you can come over and whip me at any time! If a strong man dares to bully her, I’ll break his legs first without you having to do anything!”
"sister in law!"
"Big girl!"
The two of them held hands and looked at each other with tears in their eyes. Just as they were speechless and choking, they heard voices coming from behind the wall not far away:
"I love you! I would like to treat you as my heart and treasure! If I want to add a time limit to this love, I hope it is..."
Widow Zhao's face turned dark when she heard this voice.
It was impossible for her to hear her son's voice wrong even from two miles away!
Widow Zhao looked back and saw that Yu Xiangqin was walking slowly this way with Dad Yu.
So, who is the person Zhao Zhuangzhi is in love with behind the wall?
Widow Zhao had just finished her vow, and now she was slapped in the face so quickly, which was absolutely intolerable.
It's just that she doesn't know what to do now - this happened just after her mother-in-law was satisfied with her family. What should she do about tomorrow's wedding?
She gritted her teeth and thought hard, but she couldn't figure out how to deal with this situation.
If it doesn't work, just pretend you didn't hear it? Anyway, I didn’t see anyone’s face here…
"Stop, stop, Zhao Zhuangshi, wait a moment!"
Another voice came from behind the wall.
Widow Zhao's mentality collapsed.
What are you afraid of?
Yu's mother's face was a little hot when she heard those explicit words. She was just about to pretend she couldn't hear and leave, when she suddenly heard her son-in-law's name.
She suddenly lost her composure. Looking at Widow Zhao, she frowned and asked, "What's going on? There is another Zhao Zhuangshi in your team?"
Seeing that she couldn't hide it anymore, Widow Zhao rolled up her sleeves and said, "Sister, just wait, I'm going to see which little goblin is messing around here!"
As she spoke, she casually pulled out an arm-thick coffin from the firewood pile next to her. The wind blew under her feet and rushed towards the wall.
"Let's use another word for this "palm treasure". I feel so hungry when I hear these three words... huh? Aunt Zhao? "
Widow Zhao's arms were raised, and just as she was about to lower them, she saw the face of the little goblin clearly——
Lin Nianhe.
She suddenly lost her strength and all her anger dissipated.
Oh, Lin Zhiqing, there must be a misunderstanding. She can't possibly like her grown-up son.
Yu Ma followed with a gloomy face at this moment. As soon as she saw the cast on Zhao Zhuangshi's leg and the crutch in his hand, she was immediately sure that the person in front of her was definitely her son-in-law. Seeing Lin Nianhe's charming appearance, her brows immediately wrinkled.
She looked at Lin Nianhe with a hint of confusion in her eyes.
She's a pretty little girl, she's probably an educated youth based on her dress. This... shouldn't be related to Zhao Zhuangshi!
