Chapter 33: Renting a House
Guo Xiuli took out her clothes, and Zhang Yuxing was even more satisfied. Pen ~ fun ~ Ge www.biquge.info she is not satisfied with the dress, but satisfied with the meaning behind the dress. This is the importance and love of the Li family, Li Tianming and Guo Xiuli for their Huiya.
Guo Xiuli saw that the Zhang family was very satisfied, and she was a little proud in her heart, and this gift was also counted in the local area. She took out the navy blue wool from her baggage, "... I also bought it in Jiangcheng, our supply and marketing cooperative, but there is no such good line to sell. Let Cheng Zhi's family knit a sweater for this child to wear, and it will be more beautiful when he gets married. "This is for fear that she will take off the coat, there are no good clothes in it, and it is to save face for her.
But Zhang Yuxing was still very happy, touching the soft wool and smiling, "You don't need her sister to knit for her, she knits well!" "At this time, the wool sold was the same as the fabric, either blue or gray, and the color was very single.
Zheng Huiya can knit sweaters, and the little girls in the village often get together, remove the thread on the cuffs of the knit shirt and knit gloves, socks or something. Her eldest sister is much older than her, and she joined the work early, and she is like a treasure when she finds someone to sharpen the woolen needle with an old bicycle strip.
"Really?" Guo Xiuli didn't expect her to even weave clothes, she thought that their family was in a difficult life, and it was impossible to have a thread to weave for her, which was too surprising to her, but she felt in her heart that perhaps, her son's daughter-in-law married well. "That's great, this kid, it's really like what the old sister-in-law said, skillful, and there is an inner show!"
That's a good compliment.
The Zhang family knew that Guo Xiuli, the mother-in-law, was basically satisfied with Zheng Huiya, the prospective daughter-in-law.
Listening to the fiery chatter of those three people, as well as the slightly critical gaze projected by Guo Xiuli from time to time, Zheng Huiya was like sitting on pins and needles.
She knew that everything was different from her previous life, and Guo Xiuli was not very satisfied with herself. What kind of daughter-in-law she likes, she knows very well in her heart. The reason why she was so generous, so happy to agree to the family affairs, and took out the so-called bride price that satisfied the Zhang family, must have been concerned about Li Tianming's decision.
And she doesn't want to live with the people who hurt her in her previous life. When she saw Guo Xiuli, she thought of the scoundrel man she persuaded to marry in her previous life, and her heart ached faintly. If there is only an old lady, she can't bear it, after all, she was also deceived by her children. But living with her, she has to face Li Cuihua and Li Tianliang who hurt her every day, which makes her unable and intolerable.
Marrying Li Tianming is a reluctant decision, and it is also a step that must be taken. But how to live in the future is up to her to decide.
She decided to work harder, for herself and for a better life at home in the future.
She stood up and whispered, "Auntie, Aunt Guo, you talk first, I'll go outside and add a piece of firewood." No one stopped her, and Zhang Yuxing also took the opportunity to boast: "It's not me who said, my daughter, she has the eyesight to see the child, there is work in her eyes, and it is rare to recruit people!" ”
Guo Xiuli smiled and nodded, and glanced at her son and asked him to go out. She felt a little proud in her heart, looking at the things they brought, if there were still people who looked down on them, then she was really blind. She asked her son to go out with her, naturally not for her son to help her work, but to let her son show his face in front of her.
And Li Tianming had already stood up before Zheng Huiya said this, and strode behind her, "I'll help you!" ”
Watching the two go out, everyone in the room smiled kindly.
Zheng Huiya didn't stop her, she took a piece of wood and added it to the stove, and she had to carry the coal that Cheng Zhi had brought into the house before. Li Tianming hurriedly picked it up, took down the ring on the stove with the hook, poured the coal from the barrel into the stove, and poked it with the hook to make it more vigorous. Neither of them spoke while they were doing all this. It wasn't until everything was done that Li Tianming broke the silence, "Huiya, if you have any other requirements, just mention it, as long as I can do it, I will definitely satisfy you." This is a promise, and it is also a description of the words that hurt her before.
Zheng Huiya glanced at him with slanted eyes, the depth, pain and complexity in those eyes made Li Tianming stunned. "Really? Do you mean what you say? Her tone was a little weak.
Li Tianming didn't care about the meaning in his eyes, and hurriedly nodded and promised, "Really, manly man, spitting into nails, I won't fool you, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do my best." ”
After he finished making a guarantee, he stared at her with burning eyes, and his mind couldn't help but think of ...... in the hospital that day, "Huiya, you say, I will promise you." ”
I just said that I would definitely do what I could do, but now it has become a designation.
Zheng Huiya didn't bother to complain in her heart, she pursed her lips and opened her mouth to say, "After getting married, I won't live in your house." We live alone outside. Looking at his stunned expression, I couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in my heart, "Of course, I don't want you to buy a house and build a house, let's rent a house to live in first." ”
She didn't wait for Li Tianming to speak, and continued in one breath, "Secondly, your salary will be handed over to me, how much money will be given to your mother every month, and we will discuss it later." After speaking, she looked at Li Tianming with her eyes and said categorically: "You can do these two conditions." ”
There are a lot of families together in the local countryside after getting married, but in the county, because of the large population, there are many people who live alone outside after marriage, so it can be said that Zheng Huiya's condition is not excessive.
If Li Tianming was not a soldier, but worked locally, then she didn't need to mention this condition, and the two would definitely live alone outside.
"Huiya, I have to go back to the army after I stay at home for a few days, I don't worry about you alone." Li Tianming thought for a while and persuaded: "Besides, it's not convenient for you to live alone as a woman, chopping firewood and carrying coal." You live with my family, and my brother can do all the heavy work without you. Usually there is someone to keep you company, so you don't have to be scared at night. ”
As for his younger brother, he was too lazy to wait for the oil bottle to be poured without help, and he could still help her work. I'm afraid that she lives with a large family of them, and what is dirty, smelly, tired, and bitter is her job.
"No, I'm not afraid alone, I can do what you said." She thought about it for a while and decided to take a strong dose, "That younger brother in your family is quite old, I heard my brother-in-law say that he is a few years older than me, and he is also the one who wants to say goodbye...... Your home is not spacious either...... At this age, it's not very convenient to live together. ”
What she said was also euphemistic, according to her thoughts, she wanted to say directly, is it really okay for your twenty-three-four-year-old brother and seventeen or eighteen-year-old sister-in-law to live in the same house?
Li Tianming was stunned, he hadn't thought about this problem. It's really inconvenient to live under the same roof with a brother-in-law who is several years older than me. He still thought too simply.
"That's what you're saying, but I didn't think it through. Then I'll go back and find out if there is a rental house in front of my house. It's closer to my mother, it's more convenient, and I can rest assured that they will take care of you. "Li Tianming is a decisive person, and once he finds that his decision is wrong, he will correct it immediately.
"I want to rent a house in Hebei, and in normal times, I can still go out to do odd jobs, or do something?" She hesitated for a moment and said, "If you don't worry about me, you can let your little sister be my companion." ”
