86 Fallacies (Three Watches)
Li Ailing and Xie Wumei took turns to praise, first praising Lu Qinghe, and then praising the shop.
Li Chenli and her daughter Lu Bao, who had just come out of confinement, divided into two ways and walked to the supermarket to choose things while watching.
"Yimei, you see that every market in your steamed bun shop is so busy, why don't I and my sister-in-law come over to help." Please don't use too high wages, just give a bag of meat buns every day, twenty yuan. Li Ailing was a little flattering and recommended herself to Zhang Yimei.
Twenty dollars, who will give it to me? Zhang Yimei remained silent, listening, her eyes had already followed Li Chenli and Lu Bao back and forth several times.
"That's it, Yimei, me and your second sister-in-law, we have strength, and we must be stronger than Cheng Jixiang and them. Besides, we are all our own family, and our own family members do things more carefully than outsiders, don't you say? The so-called fertilizer water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, how can the benefits be pushed out. ”
Xie Wumei followed Li Ailing's words: "Yimei, you see that you are a person who is pregnant with a son, how can you work so hard, isn't it?" I see that you have to go to each market to help in person, but it is not good for the son in your belly. Qinghe is such a small person, how can he watch a supermarket? Some of the hands and feet are not clean, and they steal things casually, where can they see it, do you say no? ”
"Again, Qinghe is a child, how can he pay off the money. Please me and your second sister-in-law. Xie Wumei knew that Zhang Yimei cared about her stomach the most, and she preferred others to say that she was pregnant with a son, and she looked like a daughter.
"Auntie, I'm better at arithmetic than you, why can't I figure it out?" Lu Qinghe heard it, the eldest aunt and the second aunt wanted to come to work in their own steamed bun shop, but as soon as they opened their mouths, they were twenty yuan a day's wages, who could afford it? The two of them are notoriously cunning.
There are people in the village who do red and white ceremonies, and they never call the two of them to help, everyone knows that the two of them can do their own big and small things in an orderly manner, but when they go to other people's houses to do things, they always like to be lazy and desert, and they also find excuses to squat in the toilet.
"Yo yo, Qinghe, you're still young, adults can't interject when they speak, do you know?" Xie Wumei twisted Lu Qinghe and put it aside, took advantage of the situation to get closer to Zhang Yimei, and continued to lobby: "Yimei, I have heard of a good recipe that can detect whether you are pregnant with a son or a daughter in your belly. If you ask me and Ailing to come to work together, how about I write you the recipe right away? ”
Zhang Yimei was a little moved, and everyone said that her birth was a son. But she is still afraid that like Huailu Qinghe, everyone who sees her big belly says that she is pregnant with a son, but she gives birth to a daughter. It's just that Lao Zuo said that whether this baby is a son or a daughter, he wants it.
After having this child, he no longer wants it, and he doesn't have any extravagant hopes for raising a son to prevent old age. Let Zhang Yimei not have a burden, a qiē at home, and he will carry it. It's just that Zhang Yimei still can't accept the idea that this baby is a daughter again.
No, Zhang Yimei didn't even dare to think about it, she decided that this child was her son.
"Mom, you don't need any recipe to test whether it's a brother or sister in your belly, Dad and we will like it very much." Lu Qinghe saw that the eldest aunt used this kind of lie related to her son to trick her mother, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, her mother is now more than seven months old, and she will be eight months soon, if she really finds a daughter, according to her mother's patriarchal nature, will she beat the sister in her belly?
With such a big belly, it is dangerous for both adults and children.
The eldest aunt and the second aunt are too unkind.
Zhang Yimei's hesitation, Li Ailing also came up to add a fire: "Yimei, the recipe that my sister-in-law said is very useful, my cousin's cousin's cousin's cousin tested it, and it was quite accurate." Why don't you try it? The test is not a loss to you, and my sister-in-law and I also came to help for your good, so you agreed? ”
"What to measure? No, Yimei is tired, you go and rest first. ”
At some point, Lu Qiang came back from the delivery and stood behind them. Ignoring the surprise of the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law, he forcibly helped Zhang Yimei into the back room. When I came out again, I saw my mother and sister picking out a lot of things, all of which were piled up in front of the cash register.
"Xiaoqiang, I came back just in time. Your sister's son is full moon, and if he wants to ask for full moon wine, he can pull a few cases of beer directly from you. Li Chenli said lightly, as if she opened this supermarket.
Lu Qinghe watched his mother obediently being helped in by his father, so he breathed a sigh of relief, took the calculator, and began to count the money for the bunch of things that his grandmother and sister-in-law picked one by one.
Xie Wumei and Li Ailing looked at Lu Qiang, who was paralyzed, and they were a little pestle, and they didn't dare to say more. For fear of upsetting him, he would coax them out of the door. I was a little envious of Li Chenli and Lu Bao, who picked so many things, they were so busy talking to Zhang Yimei just now that they forgot to take advantage.
Without Lu Qiang answering, Lu Qinghe replied to his grandmother's words: "Okay, my father will give my sister-in-law an internal price, and charge 20 yuan for three cases of beer." Grandma, everything here will also give you a discount, a total of 180 yuan. ”
"If you want to die, Lu Qinghe, do you dare to ask me for money? I'm your grandmother, your father's own mother. The things of the son's family, when the mother came to get some, she dared to ask for money. Losing money, how can you speak here? "Every time this Lu Qinghe asks for money, Li Chen Li is angry and doesn't come anywhere.
Today, she brought so many people over, just for Xie Wumei and Li Ailing to come to work in the steamed bun shop, and to buy full moon wine for her daughter's son. Not a penny, she doesn't plan to give out.
"Why not? I am the son of my family, and all the qiē here belongs to me. Mine, naturally I'm qualified to call the shots. That's right, my dad is your son, and he should honor you. Whatever you come to my house and take, we will not withhold your money. However, why don't we take her money from the water spilled by the person who married out of my sister-in-law? ”
Speaking of not giving money, Lu Qinghe thought that last year, the eldest uncle and the second uncle took those New Year's goods at the stall, and this good grandmother was still bullying and unreasonable.
"Yo yo yo, the short-lived ghost really thinks of himself as a son? Even you, a short-lived ghost, can't survive this year, and dare that every Qiē of your family belongs to you? Xiaoqiang, look at the good 'son' you taught to talk to the old man like this? Ah, what's wrong with my sister-in-law getting married, isn't it your father's sister? When will it be your turn to question what I said? ”
Saying that, Li Chenli was about to make a move on Lu Qinghe, but Lu Qiangyan quickly hugged Lu Qinghe directly into his arms. Only then did he begin to endure his temperament and speak: "Mom, what Qinghe said makes sense, you are my mother, we shouldn't take your money for taking things." However, the eldest brother, the second brother and the younger sister all need to collect money, just charge a cost price. My qiē all belong to Qinghe, that's right. ”
Qinghe is the son identified by Lu Qiang, no matter whether the baby in Zhang Yimei's belly is a son or not, Lu Qiang thinks that it only belongs to Qinghe.
