Chapter 805: Red Envelopes
Seeing that the street was full of people, the new daughter-in-law was flushed, bowed her head slightly, followed behind her mother-in-law, and shouted with her mother-in-law's introduction.
When Zhao Fang and Zhao Fen heard the movement, they followed the "old mule" and came out. The old mule stepped forward and took the new daughter-in-law's hand and said, "This is my nephew and daughter-in-law, let's go, go home and rest." ”
Aunt Baoshan hurriedly introduced her daughter-in-law: "This is your eldest grandmother." Then he pointed to the two nieces and introduced: "They are your third cousin and fourth cousin." ”
The new daughter-in-law gently called one by one: "Grandma, third cousin, fourth cousin." "The accent is obviously different from here, a typical northwestern tone.
Everyone said to the "little old mother": "The accent of the new daughter-in-law is the same as that of your second grandmother, it seems that their life there is really hard, and it has not changed for decades." ”
Although Han Daorong's mother is also from the northwest, her long and simple voice is also rough, her speech is buzzing, and her dialect is not obvious.
Baoshan's aunt took down the blanket from the bus yuanzi, handed it to the person next to her to help tear it open, and showed off loudly: "Everyone, look at this blanket, this is what I know about the heating in Hantun Village, and the warm blanket in the room is just right, specially brought from Shennan to her grandmother." My mother loves her niece, it's finally worth it. ”
Everyone laughed at her shamefully: "Your mother doesn't hurt anyone in vain, but it's not worth hurting your daughter, and if you think of your mother's family, you can't see the shadow of adulthood." ”
"You haven't been back to your parents' house, and you don't know that your mother is wearing a blanket. It's a foreign pure wool blanket that Sanfang bought at the Kyoto Friendship Store, and it's much stronger than your acrylic one. ”
Aunt Baoshan was annoyed when she heard this, dragged the blanket into her arms, and walked home angrily, muttering as she walked: "The crops that I don't know are wronged, how can the pure wool be compared with the acrylic blanket, the acrylic blanket is light and warm, much stronger than the pure wool, I really don't know." ”
Baoshan's father came out to pick up his brother-in-law, and when he saw his sister's behavior, he couldn't listen to it anymore, and scolded her: "Don't hurry home yet, our mother is waiting for you." ”
The courtyard of Baoshan's house was relatively backward, and the new daughter-in-law looked at the rows of villas, and she couldn't care about being shy, so she turned her head to look around, her eyes were full of shock.
It wasn't until she entered the door of the building and was asked to sit on the sofa that she felt restrained and didn't dare to sit down, only sitting on the edge of the sofa, half of her body hanging outside.
After drinking tea, Baoshan Niang saw that her nephew and daughter-in-law were really restrained, so she asked Sifen to take her upstairs to have a look, they were all young girls, and they might talk more.
Aunt Baoshan praised her new daughter-in-law when she entered the house, she was sensible, diligent and discerning, she didn't need to be supported to work, she was busy all day long, and she was reluctant to take a while.
Grandma Baoshan said to her: "What kind of work can you have at home during the Chinese New Year, let a new daughter-in-law work all day long, and your mother will wait to eat." ”
Aunt Baoshan said aggrievedly: "Mother, your daughter is not like you, she will try to torture her daughter-in-law, I will stop it, isn't this your nephew and daughter-in-law have eyesight, her eyes are full of life, I can't stop it at all." ”
guarded his sister-in-law, saying that his mother-in-law would learn from his daughter-in-law, and the "old mule" was so refreshing that he was uncomfortable, and quickly covered his mouth and snickered.
Grandma Baoshan made her daughter angry, twisted her arm vigorously, and scolded hatefully: "You will be a mother-in-law, don't you blush when you watch other people's children work alone." ”
Baoshan's two cousins hurriedly interceded for their mother: "Grandma, we also helped my sister-in-law work, and my mother boiled hot water." You have time to go to my house to see, now my house is cleaned up by my sister-in-law, but it is clean. The furniture was polished, the floor was swept clean, and my sister-in-law smashed the floor in the room to the ground, as if it was a wheat field. ”
Baoshan's aunt is lazy and greedy, her three children are not at home this year, and her husband farms the land of five by himself, and he will definitely not be able to take care of it when he comes home to do housework.
The new daughter-in-law does not rest during the New Year, cleaning from morning to night, it is conceivable that the home made by her will definitely not look good.
Baoshan's cousin said: "Her hometown has been dry for many years, and it rarely snows in winter, so it is difficult for people to drink water, so they are reluctant to pour the washing water and keep it to feed the sheep."
The people there take a bath twice in their lives, once when they get married, and once after they die. It's hot in the summer, and it's good to be able to wipe off with a wet towel. Usually when it rains, everything that can hold water at home is taken to the yard and quickly receives water.
When she came to us, she saw that the water was used casually, and she couldn't help but want to scrub it everywhere. ”
Baoshan Niang heard her nephew say this, so she instructed Zhao Fang: "Sanfang, you go to the consignment store to buy autumn clothes and pants for your nephew and daughter-in-law, and let her take a bath at our house, poor child, it's really offended." ”
I heard from Baoshan's cousin that the girl's parents asked her to take a photo and send it home every year. The "old mule" took the initiative to say: "After kowtowing for a while, I will go to Grandma Yoyo and ask Yoyo to come over and take a few color photos for you, and send them back to the girl's mother's family, so that the parents can rest assured." When children go thousands of miles away, having a photo can also relax the hearts of parents. ”
Baoshan's grandmother protects the calves, and her popularity in the village is particularly poor. Baoshan's parents are honest and have no status at home, so they can't control their mother and the people in the village messing around, so they can only compensate others.
Although they never quarreled with others, the people in the village did not want to see them. I dislike them for living in a nest, they can't even protect their own children, their own children are not well fed and clothed, they save food to support their nieces and nieces, and let their children serve them.
Therefore, the people of the Baoshan family didn't dare to let Youyou take pictures, they didn't think they had such a big face.
The "old mule" has a good relationship with Grandma Yoyo, and she asks Yoyo to help take pictures, and it is no problem. In fact, the "old mule" is not biased (showing), she looks at the girlish girl, far away from her parents at a young age, and wants to help her from the bottom of her heart.
After the eldest sister and the second sister of Baoshan came, the "old mule" took her nephew and daughter-in-law to pay New Year's greetings to the elders, which was to make the new daughter-in-law kowtow. Grandmother, uncle and concubine, two cousins and brother-in-law, all have to kowtow one by one.
This head is not for nothing, and the person who asks for the head has to pay for it. Yesterday they discussed, the grandmother gave 100 yuan, the uncle and concubine gave 50, and the two sisters and brother-in-law each gave 10 yuan.
This is the highest now, according to the general standard, the grandmother gives ten yuan, the concubine gives five yuan, and the sister-in-law and sister give two yuan.
Baoshan's grandmother is over 70 years old, and her money is also from Baoshan's father. That is, in Hantun, it is easier for the elderly to make money. If it were another village, how many pairs of insoles would have to be made for 100 yuan.
The new daughter-in-law is also generous, after she asked her husband, she gave each child a one-yuan meeting gift, and Baoshan was young, so he also gave him one yuan.
