"It's five thousand."
Only she and Zhao Meifen heard Lin Sui's voice.
When Zhao Meifen heard this number, she took a step back in fright and said, "Oh my God!"
"You are my mother, what are you calling me?" Lin Sui joked.
Zhao Meifen:......
"This silly boy..."
Zhao Meifen smiled and glanced at her daughter: "Did I call you that? I was scared."
As she spoke, she walked to the bed again and reached out to take the bankbook.
"I'll take it back to you and put it in the cabinet in your room. I'll pick it up when you get back from the hospital."
Although the bankbook in Lin Sui's hand was a huge sum of money, Zhao Meifen had no intention of keeping it for herself.
Lin Sui is the only daughter in their family. Everything she and Lin Jianguo are saving now will belong to their daughter in the future. How could they still seize their daughter's things?
Zhao Meifen is well-educated and cannot do such a thing.
Lin Jianguo definitely couldn't do such a thing.
But after all, it was such a big sum of money. Zhao Meifen was still a little nervous even if she was just holding her bankbook. She looked around and didn't know where to put it and take it back.
"Suisui, why do you think mom always feels like she's being watched?"
Zhao Meifen turned around and asked.
Lin Sui was drinking porridge. When he heard this, he raised his head, with a slight smile on his fair face: "Mom, you are thinking of getting rich suddenly."
“What is the get-rich-quick mentality?”
"It's just that you feel like you suddenly have money, and then you see everyone else as a thief."
I don’t worry about putting my things anywhere. It’s not that I’m worried about being noticed by thieves. What is it that I’m afraid of?
Zhao Meifen also felt that she was too nervous, so hadn't she never seen five thousand yuan before?
She and Lao Lin had some savings, but they only had 2,000 yuan.
That still belongs to the two of them.
The son-in-law can save five thousand yuan alone, which makes people admire him.
"Suisui, tell me, where should mom put this bankbook?"
"Just keep it close to your body and take it back with you. Your expression should be more natural. No one will know that you carry such a large bankbook with you when you go out."
"What I'm saying is, I can't be too nervous."
Zhao Meifen said she shouldn't be too nervous, but she couldn't help but walk around the ward. Lin Sui smiled and glanced at her, then didn't take it too seriously, lowered her head and continued eating porridge.
The porridge in the morning was made soft and delicious with meat added.
The rice is polished and has no impurities at all.
In later generations, it was normal to want to eat such rice, but now in 1972, when everything needed to be bought with a ticket, it was still difficult to eat polished rice.
Thinking of yesterday's and today's meals, Lin Sui put down the bowl and wiped his mouth with a handkerchief before saying, "Mom, have you eaten?"
"Me? Your dad and I had dinner at home. He went to work and I went out with him."
Zhao Meifen stopped. When she heard that her daughter cared about her, her heart felt as sweet as honey.
Unexpectedly, her family Suisui became sensible again.
Zhao Meifen thought happily, her daughter was good, no wonder her son-in-law felt so sorry for her.
"Mom, eat whatever you want for lunch, don't eat meat."
Lin Sui didn't know that Zhao Meifen was praising herself in her heart. What she was thinking about was that it was not easy for the couple to earn some money. They usually had to send money to the old lady in the village every month, as well as relatives, neighbors, colleagues, etc. from time to time. Some things also cost money.
The combined salaries of Lin Jianguo and Zhao Meifen are more than 90 and almost 100 yuan, which seems like a large sum, but the family also has a lot of expenses.
Eating meat and polished rice every day, one hundred yuan is not enough to support a family's life.
Zhao Meifen was stunned for a moment, and quickly figured out what her daughter was worried about. She waved her hands happily.
"The meat you are eating now was bought by my son-in-law this morning and asked me to cook it."
"Um?"
Lin Sui was very confused: "Didn't you say that he went home before dawn? How could he still buy meat?"
She still thinks like a modern person, thinking that if it’s not dawn, the meat sellers won’t come out.
Zhao Meifen glared at her again, somewhat blaming her for being ignorant.
Lin Sui touched the tip of her nose in shame.
Zhao Meifen said: "You, you are so blessed that you don't know how blessed you are. My son-in-law bought this meat from those people. He bought several kilograms and delivered it to your door. He said it was for me and your dad to replenish our health. Not only that, He also left ten kilograms of meat coupons and three kilograms of candy coupons, asking us to buy them at the supply station after we finished eating the meat."
Zhao Meifen likes Lu Ye as her son-in-law very much, so when she praises him, there will be no end to it.
"When you were dating him, I thought he was too old, and I was afraid that you two would have nothing in common. I never thought that he would be someone who would love others. Sure enough, my daughter has a good taste, and she saw the right person."
Zhao Meifen praised happily.
But Lin Sui keenly heard something was wrong, and she interrupted Zhao Meifen.
"mom…"
"What's wrong?"
Zhao Meifen's words of praise for her son-in-law were like a torrent of river water. But she would stop immediately after her daughter spoke up.
"Does your head hurt again? I'm going to call the doctor."
"No, I don't have a headache."
Lin Sui's head actually hurt, but it wasn't the pain from the wound, but the mess inside his head, as if something sealed was about to break out.
"Mom, you just said that I had sex with him before?"
"That's not what it is? You fell in love with her when you saw her at school, and you still want to pursue her, talking about freedom of love."
"Ah? Didn't I marry him because I didn't want to go to the countryside?"
Lin Sui was completely confused.
This plot is wrong.
In the chronicle she saw, the original owner was unwilling to go to the countryside, so he plotted against others.
Moreover, she was actually planning to plot against Lu Wenyan at first, but by some strange combination of circumstances, she climbed into Lu Ye's bed, and gave birth to twins the following year.
It was precisely because of this that the original owner had no feelings for Lu Ye and couldn't like the two children.
How come Zhao Meifen said that she and Lu Ye were in a serious relationship?
Lin Sui was a little confused.
"Why go to the countryside? Your father and I have bought you a job. How can we, a daughter of ours, let you go to the countryside?"
Zhao Meifen was also suspicious and didn't know what her daughter was talking about.
Lin Sui realized something was wrong and was about to continue asking when there was a knock on the door outside the ward, and Lu Xiuyun's voice rang out.
"Sister-in-law...sister-in-law...I...I'm coming in..."
Because of the original owner's attitude, the two lesbians of the Lu family (Su Yuwan and Lu Xiuyun) were very afraid of her.
I was very nervous when I spoke.
Before Lin Sui opened her mouth to agree, Zhao Meifen had already walked to the door and opened it.
"Xiuyun is here." She saw the two little carrot heads behind Lu Xiuyun, and the smile on Zhao Meifen's face suddenly widened.
"Yao Yao and Xiao Jin are here too? Are you here to see mom? Come to grandma quickly, grandma can give her a hug."
