Chapter 108: Meeting
Yulan only came to Lijiaping every time during the New Year, and never came when it was not a festival, so I didn't know that at this time, most of the people in the village were working outside and did not return, and the rest were basically old people, except for the occasional barking of wild dogs behind the mountain, the whole village was deserted, and no one would suspect that this was an old man's village.
Yulan frowned, people were depressed after staying in this place for a long time, so she asked Mrs. Li: "Grandma, why don't you live with your two uncles?"
Old Mrs. Li smiled: "They are too busy, what are we tossing when we are all old bones? Isn't it causing trouble for them? Besides, there is nothing wrong with staying in the village, and we are comfortable." Occasionally, basking in the sun, watching TV, and talking to a few old guys in the village, time passed quickly. When you get old, you are lazy. ”
Magnolia's nose was a little sour, and she always felt that the old lady's words were too dull.
The old lady's two daughters-in-law, the younger daughter-in-law Wang Mianmian is stingy and loves to be smart, and her words are piercing.
Yulan remembered that the two old men had been living with her uncle's family in the past. Grandma and aunt are like mother and daughter, aunt and aunt are also very filial, life is comfortable, and the old lady's spirit is many times better than now.
It can be seen that the old man said that he was unwilling to trouble the child, and he was still a little insincere.
Yulan glanced at Li Aihua, put her arm around the old lady's hand, and said, "Grandma, will you go to live with your grandfather at our house?" A-Niang worries every day that you two are stumbling and can't sleep well. Daddy and brother are at work, and our three sisters are going to school again, and Auntie is bored at home every day, so she loves to think crankily. If you and my grandfather go to our house, A-Niang can accompany the two of you more, and A-Niang will be worried about you and my grandfather, and Uncle and they will also rest assured. ”
Li Aihua looked at Yulan in surprise. What Yulan said was exactly what she wanted to say, it was rare that the second girl's stuffy gourd had opened her mind today, and today she had to persuade the two old men to go with her, so she glanced at Yulan, and then at Mrs. Li's mouth, motioning for her daughter to say more.
Yuzhu is quirky, looking at the eyebrows of A-Niang and A-sister, you can know what the two of them have in mind.
She shook off Li Aihua's hand, ran forward with her little short legs, grabbed Mrs. Li's palm with both hands and shook it, and said coquettishly: "Grandma, you come with us, we are not at home, A-Niang was bullied by bad people." If you were watching, no one would dare to bully A-Niang. ”
Yuzhu turned her face up, tried to open her eyes wide, pouted her mouth, and looked quite cute and pouting, and Mrs. Li's heart was so soft that she was a mess.
Li Aihua stared at Yuzhu with wide eyes, who taught her these words, and the lie came as soon as she opened her mouth?
The words of the two Yulan sisters made her a little moved, but thinking of what happened before, Mrs. Li retreated again.
It is generally believed that the daughter who marries out spills the water.
When the daughter gets married, the woman usually asks for a high dowry, just thinking that this is a hammer deal.
The villagers generally have a concept: if you don't take the opportunity to knock the man at this time, there will be no store in this village, and it will be inappropriate to ask for money in the future.
Some families who love their daughters will take the dowry directly as their daughter's dowry and take it back to their in-laws' house, and more people's practice is that they still receive a high dowry, but as for the dowry, there is none.
The phenomenon of parents giving their daughters dowry to their sons to marry daughters-in-law can be seen everywhere.
In this case, if there is a son in the family who still lives in the daughter's house, he will be poked in the backbone.
The spittle of others can drown people.
Before, Mrs. Li and her husband lived well in their daughter's house, but later the people around them became more and more unbearable, and Old Man Li loved face, so he insisted on going home.
Yulan also knew where her grandmother's concerns were, so she said, "Our family has bought a villa in the city, if you don't like the village, we can live in the villa directly." Anyway, after the Chinese New Year, we're going to move. And my sister-in-law is about to give birth, you and grandpa can go to see the baby. ”
Mrs. Li was silent, and Yulan added another fire, "I have a friend who also makes clothes, so you can ask him about this matter, maybe there is a solution." ”
If what Yulan said before made Mrs. Li wander, the last sentence would simply scratch the old lady's heart.
What has she been worrying about these days? Isn't it that her youngest son is trapped in a dead circle and can't be freed? She is ready to give up her old face and borrow money from someone who usually doesn't deal with her, so she wants her son to get through this hurdle.
Yulan said that there was a solution, which made her ecstatic, and she didn't expect Yulan's words to be credible or not.
She subconsciously thought that the friend Yulan said was actually Yushu's friend, so she didn't hesitate to believe it.
In fact, many times, we are defeated by our self-righteousness.
Mrs. Li was misled like this, and happily pulled the two little girls to tell Old Man Li about her decision.
Li Aihua was very happy, she thought that it would take a lot of words to persuade her father and mother to go with her, but she didn't expect her to open her mouth, and her daughter helped her get it.
The dark clouds that had been pressing on the heads of the two old men for many days dispersed, and the two elders finally stopped frowning. During the meal, Mrs. Li and Li Aihua desperately put vegetables in the bowls of Yulan and Yuzhu, making Yulan's head bigger.
The two old men and Li Aihua saw Yulan's bitter face, and immediately smiled unkindly, and the meal ended in the laughter of several people.
Since I had to pick up the two old men the next day, I couldn't walk back the way I came.
Yulan called Yushu and asked him to transfer a car to pick up someone.
There is no direct road from Lijiaping to Nanping Village, and if it takes three-quarters of the distance by car, it is not as fast as walking a quarter of the distance.
At the end, Yulan said again: "Brother, you call my uncle, just say that there is a way to solve his problem, and ask him to find someone to send this backlog of clothing design drawings and samples together, every style of sample, every color number, ask him if he has signed a contract, if so, send it together, and send it to the villa." Ask someone to clean the villa first, and grandparents may live there first. ”
Yushu agreed one by one, and Yulan put her mind at ease.
There was nothing to do in the afternoon, so Li Aihua helped the two elders pack up the things they were going to take away the next day.
Yulan thought that Li Shaopei would send someone to send things to City C, but she didn't expect that Li Shaopei would come by himself with samples and drawings the next day.
Two groups of people entered the villa with their front and back feet, and Li Aihua was angry with Li Shaopei last night, so Li Shaopei was not surprised when he saw the two old men getting out of the car.
Old man Li was much more restrained, and when he saw his youngest son looking tired, he just patted him lightly on the shoulder, his eyes were warm.
Old Mrs. Li was not so subtle, and after slapping Li Shaopei a few times, tears came down: "You fool! Don't tell us anything, do you want to kill us in a hurry? Who hasn't had a difficult time? One person counts the short, the other counts the long, you don't say anything, you can hold back the solution in your heart?"
Li Shaopei said in his heart: "Yes, why can't you?!" But seeing the old lady's excited look, he was afraid of making her angry, so he had to laugh and dare not speak.
