17 The first money

The husband continued: "I really haven't seen a person like your brother, if you want to say that he is stupid or not, you say that he is really not flattering." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info How bad do you think he is? ”

I really couldn't think of anything else that made my husband so angry, so I asked in surprise, "What stupid thing did he do again?" You don't want to see who is pitiful and gives all the money to others, right? ”

My husband looked at me with some sympathy, as if I was the one who did the stupid thing, and he said in a slow tone: "There is a person named Niu Wenbin in your village, you know? ”

I nodded: "My family and his family used to be neighbors, and then my family changed places and built a new building, which is not too far from his house, what happened to him?" ”

My husband snorted coldly with his nose, and then continued: "He has a motorcycle, because the car has been riding for a long time, the car manufacturer of that model has long been off the assembly line, most of his car parts are aging, and the parts are no longer available." Your brother gave someone an idea, and they bought another scrapped motorcycle of one model, and then asked me to disassemble and reassemble the two cars into one. You say that I am unemployed, not to mention that I am tired, and I don't please him, whoever receives my affection, or his affection, I don't see anyone who has gratitude or respect for him, people see me as a fool, and I feel that the people in your village don't have much better evaluation of him than me. ”

The husband paused, suppressed the anger in his heart, and continued in a hoarse voice: "Does he treat me as a brother-in-law or as his cheap labor?" I really can't say anything to him? If he weren't your brother, I really wouldn't want to give him a good face, to be honest, I really didn't bother to look at him! A person like him can really be played to death when he goes outside, he is simply a fool! I really can't imagine how such a person could be? ”

I am not surprised that my husband has come to such a conclusion about my brother. I know a little bit about my brother. But what I never expected was that there would be an irreconcilable estrangement between my brother and my husband.

My husband has been working for two months, and he has been tired but has not received a penny, which is secondary, and more importantly, he has completely lost his heart to his brother, and has a kind of contempt from the heart. What's more, the disagreement also occurred at this time. That was later my mother secretly told me: "Dayan, do you know that your brother has an opinion of your old woman?" ”

I was blown away, it was really not acceptable to me. How can it be? For my sake, there shouldn't be any conflict between them? Hurriedly asked his mother, "Why?" What the hell is going on?"

My mother smiled mysteriously at me: "I told you, don't ask your old woman, and don't tell Chunming, your brother won't let me tell you, for fear of affecting your relationship." ”

Although I was very surprised, I still wondered what was going on.

Mom then said: "Didn't your brother live in his house when he resold motorcycles with Chunming?" Your old woman's face sank one day, she didn't have a good face at all, and she didn't call your brother when she ate, as if our family owed her much money! Your brother lived in his house for those days, and he was always aggrieved. ”

All I can say is that I'm amazed! If my brother didn't say anything to my mother, my mother wouldn't have said it, and I was sure that what my brother said was from his heart, and it was definitely not out of nowhere. Because I know the ins and outs of things, my brother is lazy, idle, and doesn't talk about it all day.

Especially when it comes to kicking dogs, my mother-in-law has reached the point where she can't bear it anymore. It depends on the owner to beat the dog, it is in a human house, how can the brother ignore the owner's feelings? Isn't that a provocation to the master? Besides, the dogs that people have raised for so many years have already understood their human nature, how can he bear to kill him?

My mother-in-law is not an ordinary old lady, she is shrewd and decisive, she can be said to be resolute, she must be competitive in everything, and she wants a face in front of people, and people she is not used to looking at don't expect to have a good face at all. I've really seen that sinking face, and I can say that it's all too familiar.

It's just that I didn't expect her to use this kind of look on my brother who is a fellow mother, and I feel uncomfortable. But I won't mention this to my husband and his mother, after all, my brother did really badly, and it was not my husband's fault in this matter, and when I knew about it, it was many years later, and it wouldn't be interesting if I pursued it again, but it made my husband feel uncomfortable, but his opinion of my brother was even worse, so why bother?

After my husband came back, he rested at home for a few days, just right, at this time, Xue Yan next door went to the restaurant where she worked to do some errands, and came back directly into my house: "Chunming, there is a butcher shop in Mazhuang Market to recruit small workers, 7 yuan a day, for a meal at noon, I think you haven't found a job, if you don't try, don't take anything!" It's better than staying at home, right? ”

So my husband went to the butcher shop, because the salary was low, the boss didn't ask if it was a household registration in the city? didn't ask for anything, so my husband got a job.

The house problem was solved, and the unexpected husband's job was also solved, although it was just a laborer, he finally had something to do and earned money. Now we don't have to struggle with food and clothing.

At my age, most people get married with money or things from their families, but I am empty-handed, which also makes me taste the suffering of people living on the poverty line, so I live an extra frugal life.

At that time, the consumption level was also low, and I could survive with a monthly salary of 200 yuan. My husband has a job, and now his life has taken a leap forward. And a month later, my husband's salary was 240 yuan, which means that the daily wage was 8 yuan, which was already quite considerable for me!

Life has suddenly become colorful, and I no longer have to worry about eating, let alone let my husband ride a bicycle to the suburbs to buy cheap rice, let alone even count eating a piece of tofu. I began to have many colorful and beautiful fantasies about the future life, and I thought that the future would be so happy and beautiful, that I completely forgot that I was just a short-sighted frog at the bottom of a well.

Because the husband has to go out early and return late, all the housework, what to make a stove, chop wood for cooking, and later, the water in the bungalow is cut off, and life, even the minimum survival needs of a person is water, and a person cannot live for a day without water.

I had to go to the unit a few hundred meters away to get water at home, but my husband couldn't count on it, so I asked my husband to buy two 20-kilogram barrels at the market, and then returned home every day with a bucket full of water.

At that time, although I was not tall but very strong, it was common for me to carry two large iron buckets to water the garden at home in the countryside, and I seemed to be born with superior arm strength, and I had never met a girl of the same age who could break my wrists. This hectic life seems to make me feel fulfilled and happy.

A few months later, I was thrifty, took a thousand yuan, and told my husband: "Husband, look! We already have a thousand dollars, and I'm going to go to the bank tomorrow to deposit it, it's our first fortune after marriage! ”

Unexpectedly, my husband was not only not happy, but also seemed to have eaten Coptis chinensis, the painful expression was indescribable, and he said faintly: "We have a better life here, my family is in debt, eating is a problem, I feel that I am really not human!" ”

My husband's words reminded me that these days, because of the house, my husband's work problem has been solved, and my life is calm and unwavering. So much so that he forgot about his family's predicament, which is probably what people say about sharing sorrows and sorrows, right? When I think of his family's embarrassment, I really feel bad.

I hurriedly said to my husband, "We don't need this money anyway, you can send it to your family tomorrow." There will be more opportunities for us to save money in the future! ”

When my husband heard this, his eyes were red, of course I could see that he was not ordinary moved, and he hugged me with some emotion: "Yan, I'm sorry, I didn't give you anything when I married me, or always let you do this and that for my family, I really feel very sorry for you!" To have such a kind, understanding, and reasonable girl as your wife is really a blessing that I have cultivated in my lifetime! Thank you! ”

And so my first money was sent out with joy and hope. I don't know what kind of mood or thoughts his family will have when they receive the money, but I have thought about their joy and emotion when they received the money more than once, and I was impressed by their bold behavior and moved by their deep understanding of righteousness.
