Still angry with Pan Shixun?

In fact, Pan Yang was not angry for a long time, she just took Pan Shixun to heart from the bottom of her heart, Zhang Xuelan felt that Pan Yang had stumbled on Pan Shixun's purchase, in fact, Zhang Xuelan overestimated her ability.

Putting aside the more than 200 yuan of bride price money that has been spent on Pan Shixun, if Pan Shixun is given three red brick houses, one room will cost about 2,000 red bricks, and three rooms will cost 6,000 yuan. Powder, cement, and ash add up to at least 300 pieces.

These are only the cost of materials, to build a brick house, you have to hire a mason, three big workers plus six small workers, the big workers pay two dollars a day, the small workers are five yuan, eat and drink every day, tobacco and alcohol are not less, three months down, at least 400 yuan out.

It's not a matter of building a house, and the beds, chairs, tables and cabinets that you have to buy when you get married, the wood is so expensive, and a brand new set is down, and no two or three hundred can live it?

Do you still want to buy three more turns? A brand-new Phoenix bicycle costs about 200 yuan, a sewing machine costs more than 100 yuan, a radio costs 40 or 50 yuan, a watch almost costs 30 or 40 yuan, and then a large pendulum clock costs 20 or 30 yuan.

The scenery in Zhang Xuelan's eyes is magnificent, it takes at least 15 to 2,000 to do it, and now the operation of the kiln factory will cost money, and Pan Yang can't get this money even if he is in a hurry to cut his kidney!

Yes, she has stored things in her space, but those things she wants to leave for her father to use when she married her mother, and it is absolutely impossible for her second uncle to use the things in her space first.

Pan Yang spent no less money on Pan Shixun than on Pan Shiyao, when Pan Shiyao got married, she also spent two hundred yuan on him as a bride price, plus bought a second-hand bicycle, Xiuying's sewing machine was bought by Pan Shiyao himself, and the clothes and shoes used for the wedding were also paid for by Pan Shiyao himself, and even the house in the city was second-hand.

In addition to her father, Pan Yang will definitely not have too much difference in the money spent on the other three brothers, and Pan Yang has a good idea of how much money to spend on which one, no matter what Zhang Xuelan says, she will not spend a dime more on Pan Shixun.

To put it mildly, Pan Shixun is a white-eyed wolf who can't be raised, no matter how much money she spends on him, she can't get any good in the end, anyway, he won't be treated well in his heart, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't see him anymore.

Here Zhang Xuelan is still chattering and persuading Pan Yangdao, "Zhaoke, if we don't have money in our hands, forget it, since we have money, let's give the child a good whole, Shixun's child doesn't have any heart, if there is any son of Lao Tzu who doesn't quarrel, forget it in the past." ”

There is money, there is money, there is money

Pan Yang still couldn't help sneering and said, "You tell me how much money you have in your hand, do you know how much money I have in my hand?" ”

To tell the truth, Zhang Xuelan didn't know, she just subconsciously thought that the dry kiln factory was a very profitable business, but she didn't think that a kiln factory made money because three of them were paying dividends.

Hearing that her man's tone was not very good, Zhang Xuelan opened her mouth and said hesitantly, "Why do you have to have two or three thousand yuan at home now?"

Hearing this, Pan Yang cried and laughed, "You, alas, I don't know how to say that you are okay, you can print money casually when I have a money printing machine in my hand, and you don't want to think about it, all the money earned by the kiln factory in the second half of last year was used to buy tractors, how can we have any income?" I can get a thousand dollars out of my hand now, and it's time for you to steal the fun! ”

Hearing her man say this, Zhang Xuelan couldn't speak for a long time, and only after a long time did she sigh heavily and said, "Alas, when is it a head?"

It's just one son who has done things right now, and aside from his daughter, there are three sons, don't worry about it, and which one can't spend money when he's old

In the middle of the night, the two of them chattered and talked, no one could sleep, mentioning Pan Ying's arrest of Zhou, Zhang Xuelan said, "Ming, you and Ada, Shiyao, you have discussed, it is estimated that you have to prepare a few tables of people, and this dish has to be bought in advance!" ”

Pan Ying grabbed Zhou, except for her aunt and grandmother Pan Zhulin, as well as the third room and Yao Baozhong's family, the others Pan Yang was not ready to receive gift money, and the main ones who came on the fifth day of the new year were those from Xiuying's mother's family, and they had to prepare a few tables of dishes only Xiuying to see how many people came from her mother's family.

The next day, Pan Yang told Xiuying about this, and Xiuying said, "My mother's aunts and aunts, my mother is not going to let them come, just my mother, my aunt, and my brother-in-law." ”

Since there are not many people coming, Pan Yang estimated that it is enough to prepare two tables of dishes, and there is no need to set up a table in other people's houses at that time, put a table of eight immortals in the hall, and then borrow a table of eight immortals from Guangchen and his wife to put it in the house of the two brothers Pan Shixun and Pan Shisong, as for the dishes on the table, those at home will be used at home, and those who are not will go to the township to buy them.

For example, when a child holds a banquet like his first birthday, he will cook ten dishes if he is good at the beginning of the field, and eight dishes will be made at the end of the field.

Since it has been done, the old Pan family does not expect to covet that little gift money, so it is natural to have ten dishes. There are five big dishes, five small dishes, and five big dishes, such as a large bowl of braised pork, a large bowl of braised chicken, a fish, and mutton and goose. As for the five side dishes, they are much more casual, such as steamed eggs, fried lettuce with shredded pork, stir-fried shredded potatoes, stewed tofu with Chinese cabbage, etc., and so on, using seasonal dishes.

In addition to pork and mutton and fish to be purchased by Lao Pan's family, other materials are available at home, and then there are cigarettes and alcohol on the table, which can be taken directly from the grocery store, and the red eggs given back to the visitors do not need to be dyed in a hurry, why? Because Xiuying's family will send raw eggs that day, before the guests leave, Zhang Xuelan will boil the eggs and dye them red, and then wrap ten red eggs for each family as a return gift.

Of course, this pack of red eggs is also particular, when they were poor in the past, most of them used steamer cloth to wrap red eggs, but now everyone has plenty of money, I don't know when it began to be in the limelight, and the village already has red eggs wrapped in white towels in the village.

There were white towels in the grocery store of the old Pan family, and on the first day of Pan Ying's arrest of Zhou, Pan Yang asked Pan Shiyao to go to the grocery store to take the white towels back and prepare them first, as well as cigarettes and alcohol and put them on the long table in the middle case.

Zhang Xuelan crutched Pan Yang with her elbow, gave Pan Yang a look, and said in a low voice, "It's not Sun Tzu's office to catch Zhou, what to do with such a good thing, just pull a few pieces of steamer cloth to wrap red eggs, and what kind of white towel, white towel has to be a piece of fifty-one, it's not cost-effective." ”

Zhang Xuelan's words happened to fall into the ears of Pan Shiyao and his wife, we don't care what Xiuying felt after hearing it, Pan Shiyao didn't say a word, took out thirty yuan from his pocket, handed it to Zhang Xuelan and said, "Mother, this is the money for towels and cigarettes and alcohol." ”

Well, this time Zhang Xuelan has nothing to say, her son has given money, he just wants to use a sweater to wrap her in a sweater, and he doesn't care!

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Xiuying changed Pan Ying into a new cotton jacket and cotton pants, put a pair of tiger shoes she had just embroidered, and put her in a wooden cart early in the morning and let her go around in circles in the hall by herself. Pan Shiyao and Pan Shisong brothers drove a tractor to Xiuying's mother's house to pick up people, and at noon, Pan Shiyao's aunt Pan Zhulin led two sons, and Han Naiyun led two sons and a daughter.

Even if the old farmers are no longer full of food and clothing, but like this kind of banquet, everyone is still very enthusiastic, basically the gift money will be present, the adults in the family are embarrassed to come, but they will definitely let the children all follow, after all, the children can stand and eat, and do not occupy a seat.

It's okay to bring the child with the gift money, after all, people have to think about eating it back after giving the gift money. But what surprised the old Pan family was that Wang Jiamei actually brought her nephew over, and rushed into Xiuying's house as if she was familiar, making her look like Xiuying's family, eating and drinking in the house.

This made Xiuying dumbfounded, seeing Wang Jiamei leading a little boy to sit on the edge of the bed and eat melon seeds and peel fruit candy to eat, she thought that Wang Jiamei had come over with gift money, but she thought again, Wang Jiamei hadn't passed the door yet, and it didn't have much to do with her, and on occasions like her daughter's arrest of Zhou, she didn't need to come over to add gift money.

Xiuying was half surprised and half puzzled, and when she went to the kitchen, Xiuying secretly asked Zhang Xuelan, who was busy cooking in the kitchen, and said in a low voice, "Mother, Jiamei came to add money today?" ”

Zhang Xuelan was very busy, and said casually, "What kind of gift money did she come to add?" I don't know, I didn't get it anyway. ”

After speaking, Zhang Xuelan looked back at her, glared and said, "She's here again?" ”

Xiuying snorted, pointed in the direction of the west head and said, "Just sitting in my room, and brought a little boy over, I guess it may be her mother's nephew, I thought she gave the gift money to your mother."

Xiuying's last sentence was tactful enough, if she met a powerful daughter-in-law, she would have to complain to Zhang Xuelan, her mother-in-law, and scold the second daughter-in-law for not paying attention.

Zhang Xuelan was speechless for a long time, and only said after a long time, "Alas, if you know about this family beauty, you will be a strange person again."

Who is to blame for this kind of thing? Pan Ying's grasp of Zhou's kind of thing, and it is not like a major event like marriage, almost all the relationship can be notified, and the old Pan family has not thought about money and thought of going crazy, so they will notify the gang of Pan Shixun's father-in-law's family.

However, Pan Shixun, as if he was afraid that he didn't know how to please Wang Jiamei, went to the production team of Wangjia Village early in the morning, and told Wang Jiamei that he would hold a banquet at his house today, so that she could go over to feast on her food.

In fact, Wang Jiamei has very few opportunities to eat table noodles, this era is not like a few decades later, everyone is not very rare to eat table noodles, if there is any family in the household, it is also her mother who leads her nephews to eat, otherwise it is her sister-in-law to go, which life will not be her turn, now I heard Pan Shixun say that she can eat table noodles, Wang Jiamei naturally has to catch up, and by the way, her sister-in-law's nephew is brought to Lao Pan's house, even if you don't eat on the table, you can get a lot of oil and water on the stove.

Wang Jiamei thought about beautiful things in her head, but why didn't she want to think about it, for all the guests, Wang Jiamei was tantamount to a new face, but anyone who didn't know Wang Jiamei would definitely have to ask the old Pan family.

"Sister-in-law Xuelan, I heard Xiuying say that this is the second daughter-in-law of your family who has not passed through the door, and she came over to add gifts for this little thing, this girl is too sensible."

The person who spoke was Xiuying and her mother, who was in the house, Xiuying and her mother noticed Wang Jiamei, so naturally she had to ask Xiuying who was in her mother-in-law's family, Xiuying only told her that her mother was a concubine, but she didn't tell her mother that people were here to eat for nothing, but Xiuying was also Lao Pan's family, and she couldn't let Lao Pan's family lose face.

Right now, Zhang Xuelan listens to Xiuying and her mother praising Wang Jiamei like this, listening to it is simply extreme irony, Zhang Xuelan can't say anything, she can only laugh, and her heart doesn't stop for days. .

Xiuying and her mother didn't know, and when she greeted relatives and friends in front of Pan Yang, Xiuying and her mother politely greeted Wang Jiamei, pulled her to the table, and asked Wang Jiamei to sit with them.

Pan Yang also just noticed Wang Jiamei, and she couldn't figure it out for a while, but she still beckoned Xiuying's family to sit down first, and said with a smile, "Jiamei and the others will eat with us." ”

Pan Yang's mouth to eat with them is actually to go to the pot stove to grab some food casually, or wait for the guests to leave the table, pick off the leftovers that can be eaten, and put them in the pot to heat them again.

Xiuying's mother thought that this father-in-law was too careless, after all, the girl hadn't passed the door yet, and she had added gift money, how could she let people eat leftovers.

Xiuying and her mother insisted on pulling Wang Jiamei to sit at the table, and there were fresh meat dishes to eat, Wang Jiamei couldn't wait for this, so she naturally sat down with Xiuying and her mother half-pushing, and let her nephew stand in front of her, and the big fish and meat greeted her nephew in the bowl.

Wang Jiamei's approach is not eye-catching in this era, after all, everyone does this, for fear that others will rob the good meat and vegetables, so they almost didn't stand up and put the plate in front of him.

The people sitting at this table are basically Xiuying's family, and Xiuying and her mother are worried that Wang Jiamei will be embarrassed to eat, so she keeps beckoning Wang Jiamei to pick up dishes and ask her not to cheat. After getting off the table, Xiuying and her mother even said to Xiuying in private, "Xiuying, I think you are very good, and your little mouth is really good at talking." ”

Hearing her mother praise Wang Jiamei like this, Xiuying couldn't cry or laugh, and said angrily, "Mother, it's not good if I can still do it." ”

Xiuying's mother smiled, "Okay, okay, you are all good, don't be like you used to be at home at home, your sister will let you, you will be a concubine in the future, you have to have a good relationship with your concubine, you know?" ”

Xiuying dealt with her mother indiscriminately, and she didn't plan to tell her mother about the bad things of the old Pan family, the so-called family ugliness should not be publicized, even if it was her mother, Xiuying didn't want to talk about these things.

After everyone was full of wine and food, it was basically two or three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was dark early in winter, and everyone began to say goodbye one after another, Zhang Xuelan and Pan Shiyunniang were under the eaves of the porch one by one with red eggs wrapped in white towels.

There are a number of white towels, and so are red eggs, Zhang Xuelan prepared just enough for everyone to add gifts, naturally, Wang Jiamei is not included in this group of people with red eggs.

Everyone didn't think about Wang Jiamei's lack of gifts, but Zhang Xuelan was the number of people who were missing, and Pan Shiyao and her aunt Pan Zhulin even had to give their red eggs to Wang Jiamei, complaining, "Sister-in-law, you are too, you can't dye more red eggs?" Jiamei hasn't yet! ”

Zhang Xuelan raised her eyelids and sighed twice.

Pan Yang couldn't stand it anymore, so he stopped Pan Zhulin and said, "Zhulin, you take the red eggs with you and give them to the children, and the red eggs of Jiamei go back and let Xuelan cook them again." ”

When Pan Zhulin heard her brother say this, she also felt that it was feasible, so she put away the red eggs and kept them to take home.

When everyone is gone, Wang Jiamei is still waiting in Pan Shixun's house with her nephew, what are you waiting for?

Of course, she waited for Zhang Xuelan to dye her a few more red eggs and bring them back, but her father-in-law allowed her to do so in front of everyone!
