Chapter 11: Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law
"I heard that the accommodation conditions in the county high school are also average, and the food in the canteen is not delicious, if we move to the county seat, I can live at home and eat the meals you cook every day. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Besides, our family can't earn much money in the village with those few acres of land, and it's different when we go to the county seat. A relative of my classmate's family was not wealthy at all, but later came to the county seat to do small business, and now they are all buying houses in the county seat. Even if we don't start our own small business, it is easier to find a stable job in the county than in the countryside, and it is definitely more profitable than farming. ”
Xu Xiangqing is not a picky person, but is very able to endure hardships. She was able to overcome the school's poor accommodation or unpalatable meals. She is now picky about high school accommodation and meals, nothing more than wanting her mother to soften her heart because of herself. As for the relatives of any classmates, they are all fabricated, but Xu Xiangqing's words are not false, the county has more employment opportunities than the countryside.
If she stayed in the countryside, Xu Xiangqing could think of many ways to make a fortune, but she didn't want to stay in the village. Staying means that you will continue to deal with those selfish relatives in the future, but don't forget that the grandparents and uncle's family all live in the village, and they can't get rid of it like a dog's skin plaster. Even the county seat is not the final place for Xu Xiangqing to settle down, she hopes to leave here farther, to those places where the best relatives can't disturb.
Wang Jing didn't expect her daughter Xu Xiangqing to say this, but she still rejected her daughter's proposal. "Qingqing, these things are not for you to think about, learning is the most important. ”
Xu Xiangqing didn't think that a conversation would make her mother decide to move such a big thing, and there would be other opportunities in the future. Moreover, Xiang Qing also took into account the current economic situation of her family, and if she moved to the county seat, she would be very embarrassed. Therefore, the top priority is to find a way to make money, and it is easier to persuade parents if you have money.
Although she refused in front of her daughter, Wang Jing was not unmoved at all. She doesn't want to stay in the village all the time and live so hard, many people have made money in business in recent years, she is not without ideas. It's just that no matter what kind of business there is, there is a cost, but the family really has no money. My mother's relatives are not wealthy and have no money to borrow. There are a few rich relatives on the husband's side, but unfortunately they all refuse for various reasons. Wang Jing pondered in her heart, either her daughter would go to the county seat to fight when she went to high school, and it would be best if she succeeded, and if she failed, she would return to the village to live an honest life.
This idea was originally just a small sprout in Wang Jing's heart, but an incident happened that afternoon, which made her firm in her belief to work hard.
In the afternoon, Xu Xiangqing still didn't go out and continued to read at home. At this time, grandma Deng Yajuan suddenly came, this is the master of the Three Treasures Hall who has nothing to do.
As soon as Deng Yajuan walked into the yard, she began to nag, disgusting this and that. Wang Jing was always helpless in the face of her mother-in-law, but after all, she was an elder, so she still took the initiative to greet her in the yard. "Mom, you're here, sit in the house. ”
"I won't go in, I heard that my son is back, right, I have something to do with him. Deng Yajuan looked like she didn't answer.
Wang Jing tried her best to calm down, "Zhonghui, he has been working overtime for people these days, and he is tired enough, he will fall asleep." What do you say to me, turn around and I will tell him when he wakes up. ”
"I'm talking to my son, and you need to pass on the word, there's no rules. Deng Yajuan shouted loudly.
Wang Jing took a deep breath and tried not to be angry, it was not a day or two that her mother-in-law looked down on her, and she should get used to it. "Mom, be quiet, don't wake up Zhonghui, he just fell asleep. ”
Wang Jing felt sorry for her husband, but Deng Yajuan was not so considerate. "You have taught me a lesson as a mother-in-law, I don't need you to teach me to do things. Besides, whoever has a sleep in the afternoon is not afraid to say it and make people laugh. ”
Deng Yajuan was about to go into the house to wake up her son Xu Zhonghui, but there was such a loud noise in the yard that Xu Zhonghui couldn't sleep. He knew that his wife was for his own good, but he didn't want to have a conflict with his mother. "Mom, what are you looking for me?"
Seeing that his son was already standing in front of him, he looked at his daughter-in-law Wang Jing with a proud face, as if he was demonstrating and as if he was showing off that his son still listened to her the most as a mother.
"It's not a big deal, it's just to prepare the pigsty to clean up, your father's waist is not good, you go to help, and the two of you can do it faster." ”
"I know Mom, I'll be over in a while. Xu Zhonghui agreed without hesitation.
"Then hurry up, don't keep your dad waiting. Deng Yajuan raised her feet and walked out, urging her son Xu Zhonghui step by step.
Grandma left, Wang Jing's face suddenly became much more ugly, and she was very aggrieved. "What did I say wrong or did wrong, our mother looked down on me so much, every time I needed to work, I knew that I came to us, there was a village to live in, why did she never look for a brother-in-law to work. It's all her sons, why are they so eccentric. ”
"Don't be sad, my mother doesn't talk to people, but she doesn't forgive. After a long time, sooner or later she will know how good you are. As for the work, don't be so clear, I was originally a brother, and I should do more. As for what others do, we don't care, just have a clear conscience. Xu Zhonghui's heart is not without thoughts about his mother's eccentric behavior every time, he just thinks about home and everything, and it is not a big deal to do a little more by himself. His parents gave birth to him and raised him, and he should be filial as a son.
Her husband's comfort didn't make Wang Jing's mood any better, because she had heard the same words many times. "You don't have to say these to comfort me, it's useless, your mother just doesn't like me, I know it very well in my heart. ”
"Nonsense, you were the daughter-in-law she chose, if I don't like you, how can I let me marry you into the door, you really think too much. Xu Zhonghui felt that there might be a misunderstanding between his daughter-in-law and his mother, and when the matter was clarified and the misunderstanding was resolved, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would definitely be able to get along.
Wang Jing's heart was suddenly a little disappointed in such a muddy husband, and it was not a day or two that she married into the Xu family, but more than ten years. It's been so long, and there's nothing unclear to see. Wang Jing felt that her husband would not know anything in his heart, but he was unwilling to admit it and face it.
"Your mother treated me well at the beginning, but since I gave birth to Xiang Qing, she has looked at me unpleasantly. I know that your parents are rare grandchildren, and granddaughters have never looked down on them. When Xiang Qing was young, they didn't even hug once, and they were obviously patriarchal. Our mother also takes a fancy to the eldest son, and loves the youngest son the most, and you, the second child, think about it when you are working. Of course, they also hate the poor and love the rich, Luo Xiaobo is treated as a distinguished guest every time he comes, and we are the roots in our mother's eyes. Wang Jing doesn't care whether her husband will be angry or not, she just wants to say what she thinks in her heart and the grievances in her heart.
