When all the women heard about the washing machine, their eyes widened!
I heard that washing machines are so expensive that they can’t even be purchased in supply and marketing cooperatives. They can only be found in department stores in the county.
"Then what do you usually do?" a woman asked Yu Xiangnian.
Yu Xiangnian said truthfully: "I have no job."
As soon as these words came out, everyone had the same idea.
Without parents to watch over you, the wife you find will be unreliable!
Guangtu looks handsome, but what’s the use? !
Not only do you raise children by picking up babies, but you don’t even do any housework. You have been married for so long and you don’t even have a child!
Yu Xiangnian naturally didn't know what everyone was thinking.
There is no custom of eating breakfast after getting up here. When food is served at around ten o'clock in the morning, I don't know whether it is breakfast or lunch.
There were not many people at this meal in the morning, just the neighbors who had set up three tables of food.
While eating, Cheng Jingmo was finally able to take some time off.
Yu Xiangnian took Xiaojie over and sat next to Cheng Jingmo, preparing to eat.
She saw everyone looking at her in astonishment!
Yu Xiangnian didn't know why, so he asked Cheng Jingmo, "What's wrong?"
"Baby-picking wife, come here!" Cheng Jingmo's mother Mu Huanzhen shouted to her with an unhappy look on her face.
Just as Yu Xiangnian was about to stand up, Cheng Jingmo held her shoulders, "You sit down, I'll come over."
Cheng Jingmo walked up to Mu Huanzhen and said, "Mom, Yu Xiangnian is not from our place, and there is no such custom there. She has been eating on the table since she was a child, and you can't deny her food just because she is married to me. No matter what Wherever she goes, she should be on the table!”
He spoke loudly, as if he wanted everyone present to hear him.
Everyone present fell silent. Everyone looked at Cheng Jingmo and then at Yu Xiangnian.
Only now did Yu Xiangnian understand the meaning of everyone's eyes.
Cheng Jingmo defended her in front of everyone, and she felt warm in her heart.
At the same time, it was a bit bitter, and Cheng Jingmo was caught in the middle, making it difficult to do it.
She felt hot on her back, as if everyone was about to see through her.
She straightened her back, sat upright, and faced everyone's gaze without fear!
She just wants to put food on the table, and she’s not a shady person!
Cheng Jingmo said to everyone, "It's been a hard day, everyone, let's eat quickly!"
Cheng Shuanshua also rescued the situation in time and shouted to everyone: "Everyone sit down and eat, it will be cold soon."
The men found a table and sat down, while the women huddled in the corner outside the kitchen, whispering while waiting for the men to eat.
Cheng Jingmo came over and sat next to Yu Xiangnian, leaving Mu Huanzhen standing there angrily glaring at the two of them.
Zhang Hongli snorted lightly, leaned into Mu Huanzhen's ear and said, "Mom, I just forgot about my mother when I had a wife!"
Cheng Huazi and several elders of about the same age sat at another table, and everyone looked unhappy.
Cheng Jingmo got a steamed bun each for Yu Xiangnian and Xiaojie.
These are steamed buns mixed with sorghum noodles, which are hard and choking.
There are only two dishes on the table, fried potatoes and cold eggplant, which are eaten with steamed buns.
In just a few moments, these two dishes were completely eaten.
Yu Xiangnian was very hungry, but he couldn't choke after eating half a steamed bun.
In front of everyone, she couldn't help but give Cheng Jingmo the remaining half of the steamed bun to eat.
Cheng Jingmo said quietly: "If you can't eat it, just give it to me."
Yu Xiangnian held the steamed bun in his hand and looked at him with complicated eyes.
Heartbroken, touched, distressed, unbearable... all kinds of emotions are intertwined.
Cheng Jingmo took the steamed bun in her hand with a calm expression, "The guests will be here in an hour or two. You go back to the house and prepare."
Obviously he was trying to find a reason for her to get out of this Shura field.
"Oh." Yu Xiangnian said guiltily.
Back in the house, Yu Xiangnian sat on the edge of the bed frustrated.
It was only the first day, and she felt so miserable. There was still a month to go, how should she live?
Outside the kitchen, everything is in chaos!
Three women play one play, so many women come together, there are ten plays and eight plays!
Someone comforted Mu Huanzhen.
"His aunt, don't be angry! There is no such custom in the place where children are picked up to serve as soldiers, so forget it."
"Just eat it when it's on the table. Anyway, the baby-picking wife won't be here long, so don't damage the harmony of the family."
"The wife who picked up the baby must have read books. What...how did you say it?"
"Intellectuals! Yes! Intellectuals don't pay attention to this!"
There are also people who are instigating, and Zhang Hongli is one of them.
She pouted her lips dissatisfied and said, "If you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, marry a dog, follow the dog. If you marry into our Cheng family, you have to abide by our customs here!"
Someone echoed.
"That's it, what does it look like for a woman to eat on the table and be equal to a man!"
"I'm just too used to this daughter-in-law! Why don't she look better!"
Zhang Hongli sneered, "Good-looking?! Just like a vixen!"
On the other side, Cheng Jingmo finished eating and went into the room to see Yu Xiangnian.
Yu Xiangnian is someone who is held in the palm of the family's hands. Coming here with him must be aggrieved!
As soon as he entered the house, Yu Xiangnian rushed over and hugged him, and Cheng Jingmo quickly closed the door.
Yu Xiangnian buried his face on Cheng Jingmo's shoulder and murmured: "Cheng Jingmo..." It's hard for you!
Cheng Jingmo hugged her back and said, "I'll cook noodles for you after the guests leave."
Yu Xiangnian raised his face and looked at him and said, "I didn't expect there would be so many problems."
Now that I think about it, Zhao Ruozhu has really good intentions.
She really doesn’t know how to get along with her husband’s family!
Cheng Jingmo stroked her smooth face with his thumb, "Don't think so much, let me handle things when they happen."
Yu Xiangnian was not in a high mood, "Yeah."
Cheng Jingmo said: "Take out the clothes you bought for your parents and let them change into them."
Cheng Jingmo carried two sets of clothes and brought Yu Xiangnian to the main room.
Cheng Huazi and a few old men were smoking dry cigarettes, and the entire hall was full of odor.
"Dad, these are the clothes my wife bought for you." Cheng Jingmo motioned to Yu Xiangnian, and she held the clothes in both hands and handed them to Cheng Huazi, "Today, you should wear these new clothes."
Cheng Huazi looked at the two of them expressionlessly for a while, hesitating to speak, and finally said nothing.
He put down the tobacco stick in his hand and took the clothes.
Cheng Jingmo took out the candy he bought and prepared it for the guests who came.
In the room, Cheng Jingmo changed into clean clothes and asked Yu Xiangnian to put on the floral cotton-padded jacket.
Yu Xiangnian looked at the bright red and green clothes on the bed, still resisting in his heart.
Cheng Jingmo said: "Believe me, you look good in this outfit. All our new wives here dress like this."
When Cheng Jingmo said this, Yu Xiangnian was 100% sure that it would not look good in this outfit!
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Sister-in-law, are you in there?"
It was the voice of Cheng Shuan holding his daughter-in-law Liu Cuihua.
