Chapter 26 The sewing machine causes family conflicts

On the third day of Qinyin's continuous broadcast praising Li Fei's hired workers to raise pond fish, Li Fei made a special trip to the county seat to please Qinyin and bought a sewing machine. He felt that the mountain road was rough and the sewing machine was so heavy, so he hired two people and moved to a small mountain village. Li Fei hired people to carry the sewing machine to the small mountain village on the way, attracting people who were in a hurry and working to stop one after another, and the passers-by wanted to know who in this small mountain village had such a skill to buy the sewing machine, and asked hired workers to carry it.

When I arrived in the small mountain village, Li Fei was worried that the sewing opportunity he had abruptly sent would be rejected and attract jokes, so he told Qin's mother that it was Qinyin who asked me to send back the sewing machine.

"I said that this daughter said that she would buy me a sewing machine, and it was only a few days later, and she bought it back." "When the people in the small mountain village saw that the qin family had bought a sewing machine, they all came to see it. Touching the heavy ironwork, I was amazed.

That night, the piano mother went back to her old business, stepping on the pedal of the sewing machine, holding the axle wheel in her left hand and the thread lever in her right hand. He also kept introducing to the onlookers that this is the needle bar, that is the machine needle, and that is the needle clamp. After trying to sew a shirt, he smiled from ear to ear: "I didn't adapt to it at first, didn't I sew a piece of fabric for clothes, but I didn't expect that I didn't have sewing skills." ”

Several onlookers also praised the piano mother: "Wow! It's different with a sewing machine, it doesn't take long to sew such a long thread, if you use it by hand, how long will it take!"

So the mother of the piano took out the clothes that could not be sewn in time at home, and there was a small pile, sewing them up piece by piece, and was busy until late at night.

As Mother Jean was immersed in the newly purchased sewing machine, Grandma Jean saw that the vegetable patch in the corner of the house was unwatered, so she went to water it.

The next day, the vegetable patch was still unwatered. Grandma Qin, who was not used to seeing it, finally couldn't help it, and the first big quarrel between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law began.

At that time, Grandma Qin said a few words to Qin's mother: "I haven't eaten enough three meals a day, and I am obsessed with a sewing machine, and the sewing machine can't be eaten as a meal." ”

Qin's mother has been looking forward to a sewing machine for more than 20 years, and finally has one at home, of course, she is not to be outdone: "Who let my daughter have the ability to buy a sewing machine for me." If you have the ability, you can also have a daughter who can buy a sewing machine. ”

How could Grandma Qin stand Mother Qin's resignation? Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, you say a word, I say a word, and they quarrel and scold. When the old people of the village saw this, they came to persuade them. Ah Gui's mother next door pulled Grandma Qin away, and Grandma Qin entered the house angrily, so the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law both scolded each other in the house for words that they couldn't hear, and gradually there was no sound, and the quarrel was temporarily subsided.

Father Qin and Mother Qin, who were working at the aqueduct construction site, heard that the family had bought a sewing machine, and Grandma Qin and Mother Qin quarreled, so they also took leave and returned home to reconcile the conflict.

It happened to be a weekend, and without knowing it, Kotone returned home before his father and brother.

As soon as she arrived outside the village, Qin Yin felt a strange happiness at home. Mother Qin greeted her with a smile from afar, "Why did your filial daughter come back now, I've been waiting for you for a long time." The people in the village also watched with envy as the mother and daughter laughed and talked from outside the village into the village, and then into the house. Only Grandma Jean pouted and looked unhappy.

"Huh, why did Mom suddenly buy a sewing machine?" exclaimed Kotone as soon as she entered the room.

"Isn't this the sewing machine you gave me?" Qin Mu laughed, "You let that person, oh, that Li Fei sent it, and hired two people to move into the village." How did you forget it so quickly?"

"Li Fei?" Qin Yin was stunned, and then seemed to understand something. She was in a hurry, improvised the situation, and told her mother that this was a sewing machine borrowed from Li Fei, and slowly repaid him the money he bought the sewing machine. The mother didn't seem to care about what her daughter said, and still praised Qinyin for being sensible and filial.

Father Qin and Qin Sheng returned home, and Kotomi also returned. This weekend, the pianist rarely gathers the whole family at home. However, because of the sewing machine, this weekend, which was supposed to be a reunion, became noisy.

Because of the quarrel with the mother of the qin before, Grandma Qin has been staying in the house where she lives, and she has not entered the house of the mother of the qin at all.

Qin's father complained to Qinyin, "Buying such a big thing as a sewing machine, I didn't even discuss it with my family, and I bought a sewing machine without even asking, do you think you're rich?

The father of the piano originally said the sound of the piano, but the sound of the piano did not dare to speak back. But the piano mother next to her couldn't listen: "This is what I asked her to buy, what's wrong? Shouldn't I buy a sewing machine after working so hard for most of my life?"

The piano voice, which had been silent before, also spoke, "Mom! It's not that you can't buy it, but it's not time yet." Isn't there a lot of money to spend at home? You can't spend that much money just for a sewing machine, right?"

Qin Sheng stood on the same position as his father, and he thought that his father would agree with him, but he didn't expect Qin Sheng's father to teach him a lesson: "Qin Sheng, don't you want to be a soldier? Let me tell you, now that the family has divided the fields, you are the only young man, and if you leave, how can anyone help the plow and plow the fields?"

When the mother heard this, she began to count the mistakes of the father again.

Kotomi got tired of the noise at home and ran out of the house with her ears covered. The piano father, the piano mother, and the piano sound also ignored Qinmei's grievances and continued to make noise. They quarrel from one thing to another, from one dissatisfaction to another. The constant noise annoys the piano sound.

The three of them finally got tired of arguing, and the noise in the house gradually subsided.

Qin Yin said, in fact, I don't know why Li Fei suddenly sent a sewing machine over.

Before the qin yin finished speaking, the qin father accused the qin yin of "attracting bees and butterflies": "Our qin family has never been like a beggar, just can ask for other people's things." Why are you so unambitious, people want to send you?"

"Since someone has already sent it, let's borrow money to buy a sewing machine and pay it off slowly." ”

Qin Sheng said half to himself, half accusatory: "There is no pie in the world, why doesn't he send sewing machines to others?"

"Shall you send it back to someone now?" the sound roared.

The mother of the piano relieved the piano sound, "I didn't know if it was given by someone else, but I have already used it." How can you go back?"

Qin Yin finally couldn't stand the chatter of her family, and before the weekend was over, she returned to the commune radio station early.

On Monday, after Qinyin finished the morning broadcast at the commune, he hurried to Li Fei's house.

Li Fei was on the fish pond, explaining something to the hired workers. Seeing that Qinyin was coming, I didn't know if the explanation was completed, so I immediately ran to Qinyin, leaving the workers who were stunned in place.

Qin Yin said to Li Fei, who ran over: "Your business is important, your business is important." ”

Li Fei looked dazed: "It seems that you are not the right person to come?"

Qin Yin got straight to the point: "Why did you send my mother a sewing machine?"

Li Fei didn't see the happy appearance of Qinyin in Hope, on the contrary, Qinyin had a blaming look. Li Fei immediately turned to an innocent look: "Didn't you say that your mother has been thinking about buying a sewing machine for more than 20 years?

"But have you ever thought about it, if you send the sewing machine over like this, what will others think of the two of us if they find out?"

Hearing the words "the two of us", Li Fei was secretly happy in his heart: "No, no, I said that you bought it, and I am only responsible for delivering it." No one knew I bought it. ”

"That's not going to work!" said Kotone, "Although my mother has been looking forward to a sewing machine for more than 20 years, since she has been here for so many years, and I don't care about waiting a few more years, I believe that I will be able to buy her a sewing machine." ”

At Qinyin's insistence, Li Fei agreed, and this sewing machine was bought by Qinyin with borrowed money. About 130 yuan for the sewing machine was paid off slowly by the sound of the piano.

After Qin Yin left, Li Fei originally wanted to say to Qin Yin, but he didn't dare to say it, and expressed it by talking to himself: "Who is rare for you to pay back? Do you think you have money? Do you think you can replace my feelings?" muttered to himself, feeling that he was scolding Qin Yin, but in fact, he seemed to be scolding himself, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
