Zhou Guihua did not stay in the provincial capital for too long. After her daughter Li Jiahui came to settle down, she went home. After all, she still had children and a wife to take care of at home.
When she came, she had a big bag and a small bag, and when she left, she also had a big bag and a small bag. Zhou Guihua knew that it was all because of her younger daughter-in-law. Her younger daughter-in-law was a good person, kind, outstanding and filial. She thought that a son who ate commercial grain was already a descendant of his ancestors. Qingyan, I never thought that I would have such an excellent daughter-in-law.
Zhou Guihua got into the car and saw her son and daughter-in-law getting smaller and smaller. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and touched the things in her backpack. Suddenly she felt something was wrong.
Pull open a corner of the package and there is money!
Zhou Guihua's eyes widened, and then she returned to her normal expression, trying to calm herself down.
Such a large stack of money was given to her, and the children could use it for whatever they wanted. Because Zhou Guihua was carrying money and precious books and toys, she was very nervous along the way.
Su Jin was very worried. After giving her mother-in-law more than 500 yuan, her hands were empty again. She had many ways to make money in her mind, but the original owner didn't have any. She was really worried.
The worried Su Jin could only express more love to her two children, so the children discovered that their mother had prepared another small picture book for them, this time with mathematics and English knowledge.
However, there are beautiful pictures and interesting stories, and the two children like it very much.
Time passed, and another week passed in the blink of an eye. It was getting closer and closer to the children's vacation. As the end of the term approached, Su Jin became busier and busier.
When she came back from a night study session, Su Jin found that her husband's mood was very wrong. Although he tried his best to hide it in front of the children, Su Jin still noticed the difference.
But since he didn't say anything, Su Jin was considerate and didn't ask. Before falling asleep at night, she heard her husband's dull voice: "Mom wired us five hundred and thirty yuan."
Su Jin: ...Mom and mom are indeed different.
"Thank you, wife. If Mom hadn't called my work, I wouldn't have known that you gave Mom so much money in private." Li Fendou was deeply moved.
Su Jin, "It's the same as my mother. If my mother has it, your mother should have it too."
Before Li Fendou could speak, Su Jin preemptively said: "It was all your fault before. If you didn't tell me, why did my mother-in-law get the money now? You also accepted the money remitted from her mother-in-law. It's really unfilial. "
Li Fendou didn't react. How could it be his fault?
It’s not that he doesn’t give money, but mom doesn’t accept it. Mom always feels that he’s not doing well in the provincial capital, so she won’t accept his money.
"If your unit is not the busiest during the Chinese New Year, we can go back to spend time with my mother-in-law. Alas, neither Zhenzhen nor Qi Zheng have seen grandpa."
Li Fendou:...Is that so? Is it all his fault?
It should be his fault. His wife is recognized as filial, so how could it be his fault?
But it’s also strange. It didn’t seem to be said before that it was his turn to be on duty every New Year. How come after he married his wife, he was on duty every year?
But I don’t think about it anymore, it’s not important anyway.
"I'll apply with the leader this year. It shouldn't be my turn. I can just take the children back to my hometown for a visit, but what about the five hundred yuan? My mother has already wired it, and I have received it." Li Fendou sat up, frowning. .
"Let's remit it directly to my eldest brother. My parents live with them. He and his eldest sister-in-law collect peppers in the summer and sell cabbage in the winter. They also pull coal from time to time to earn extra money for only 50 cents per car. It's too hard."
"Since mom doesn't want to take care of her, then she can remit it to her eldest brother and sister-in-law. We haven't paid any support over the years, but we often ask mom to help us. It's also a dereliction of duty on our part."
Li Fendou agreed with Su Jin.
He was both moved and distressed. He was touched that his wife thought about his family, and he felt distressed that his wife was treated like this by his mother-in-law.
"Mom and Jinbao's side..." Li Fendou thought, his mother-in-law hasn't been here for a long time, Jinbao's breakfast shop has changed people, and his brother-in-law transferred the shop, what happened.
But as soon as he raised his head, he saw his wife pulling up the quilt to cover her head, and said irritably: "Don't talk and don't want to listen."
Li Fendou: Well, let’s not talk about it.
Li Zhenzhen and Li Qizheng don't have as many worries as adults. Grandma doesn't come, uncle doesn't come, and the days become bluer without their cousins.
They raised rabbits every day, went to work to read storybooks with their mother, delivered lunch to their aunt who sold clothes on weekends, and played hide-and-seek with the children in the evening. They were so happy.
But happy days are always so short-lived. When the summer vacation was over and they were about to send them to kindergarten, something happened to my aunt on her way back from S City. The goods were gone and the money was gone.
Li Jiahui and his wife had just rented a shop in a pedestrian street near several universities. They were eager to buy more goods and even took out a loan. If they did not repay the loan in time, their house would be lost. The couple originally quit their jobs. My mother-in-law disagreed and didn’t know what to do this time.
The child's uncle returned to her hometown to go through the formalities for the child to start school, and Su Jin went to pick her up alone. What made her feel more at ease was that Li Jiahui's mental state was still normal. She smiled bitterly at Su Jin and said, "Those people must have been targeting her a long time ago. It's me, it's me who's not careful."
"As long as everything is fine," Su Jin comforted.
"I'm sorry, Xiaojin. The police said it will be difficult to recover the money. The money you invested is gone, but I will definitely pay you back, but it may take a while." Li Jiahui wiped away her tears.
As soon as Li Jiahui finished speaking, she found that Su Jin had stuffed a bag of things into her hand, "This is the manuscript fee I just got and some remuneration I got for tutoring my children during the holidays. The total is just one thousand yuan. How could you do it back then?" It’s okay to come to the provincial capital to do business with a thousand yuan!”
Li Jiahui was stunned. She met Su Jin's trusting eyes, and her heart became more and more sour.
She used to be prejudiced because Su Jin was unwilling to take her children back to her hometown to see her parents since she got married. Now, facing Su Jin's unreserved trust, she cast aside her former self.
Her sister-in-law is really nice.
Li Jiahui nodded heavily, "I can, I can do it."
The children knew that their mother was already on her way to her grandmother's house when she took all the money from the family to do business for her aunt.
Before arriving at Su's house, Li Qizheng's face was already very serious.
Originally, his mother wanted to come by herself, but he and his sister insisted on coming because they were afraid that their mother would be deceived by grandma again and lose her pants.
Aunt Su was cooking when she heard a movement at the door. She thought it was her son coming back, so she packed up a handful of leeks and came out. When she saw Su Jin who had just walked in, her face suddenly dropped, "Why are you here? "
Aunt Su thought to herself that Daya must have come to admit her mistake. She knew that the daughter she gave birth to was inseparable from her mother.
"Hey, you're a rare visitor. Sister, here you are. Why are you here? Our dad's legs are healed and you're here just now?" Gao Hongmei didn't go to work today. It was a rare day off. She had just been watching TV in the house.
When she saw Su Jin coming to her door, she became very angry. If it hadn't been for her mother-in-law and her, she wouldn't have been talked about by her neighbors for so long, which made her particularly afraid of meeting those old ladies.
She didn't get Su Jin's money. Those old ladies always said that she and Jin Bao sucked Su Jin's blood and unjustly accused her to death.
