Chapter 176: Rival in Love
After the two of them arrived at home, dinner was eaten in Zhang Jianguo's hall, and this time a few close relatives came to the door, and when they saw Shen Yuehua coming back, their eyes lit up.
There is a relative of Li Guifen's mother's family, who usually does not have much contact with the Zhang family, but they can meet several times a month, Shen Yuehua is called Aunt Yun, and walked in front of Shen Yuehua with a few steps, and said with a smile: "Yo, Yuehua is back, if you want me to say, it is better to go back sooner than to go back, no, it's just in time for dinner at home, come, the meals are ready, your eldest brother will bring it over, you sit down and have dinner with us." ”
After she finished speaking enthusiastically, she pulled Shen Yuehua all the way in, and she was very careful on the way and didn't let her bump into it.
Shen Yuehua was dragged by her and sat on the stool, and suddenly felt bad in her heart, the group of relatives who left before were also because they saw a lot of people, and many of them knew that the relationship with the Zhang family was shallow, and their own skin was thin, so they left first.
But this time, all the relatives who came over were Shen Yuehua who looked at them and felt that they were kind, Shen Yuehua looked around, these relatives are usually not easy to mess with, but now they are all laughing, and there is no place to be uncomfortable.
She understood that if she didn't say anything about four, five or six this time, these people would not leave lightly.
She thought about it, then said with a smile: "Isn't it just in time for dinner, I just came back from Brother Sun and my cousin, and I ate at home, and my eldest brother is used to cooking here, so it tastes delicious." ”
As soon as she finished saying this, Zhang Jianguo and Ma Guihua came over with food, and behind them, there were two women, an old man and a young woman, who looked like they were all raw, but they were just cooked.
As soon as they put down the meal, they sat directly next to Shen Yuehua on one side, the old woman, who looked like she was in her fifties, with very thin cheeks and a very pointed chin, and she looked very difficult to get along with.
In particular, this person looked at her with a smile, and said exaggeratedly: "This is Shen Yuehua, she looks so beautiful, much more beautiful than our daughter, no wonder Zhang Jianbin will marry you." ”
The words were sour, and the meaning in the words made Shen Yuehua feel inexplicable, she glanced at this woman, and finally found that her facial features were a little similar to her sister-in-law Ma Guihua.
She thought about it, and immediately understood the identity of this person, and the woman sitting on the other side of her, looking not very old, but no matter how old she is now, she looks like she is twenty-three or four-year-old, and her appearance is more similar to Ma Guihua, but she is more glamorous than Ma Guihua, with white skin, watery eyes, and ruddy lips, looking at a rare beauty in the village.
In fact, Ma Guihua is not ugly, if you really want to talk about it, she is the most iconic one among the three sisters-in-law, but that character is really flattering, and no matter how beautiful she looks, she has no connotation, and she is a mean expression waiting to take advantage of it at any time, which also makes people stay away.
She didn't like to be close to Ma Guihua before, of course, Ma Guihua herself didn't look down on her, but now after meeting her family, she realized that it was really a matter of genetics and family education.
Ma Guihua's mother said such things sourly as soon as they met, which made the atmosphere embarrassing on the spot, and the woman who had never spoken and only stared at her with hostile eyes made her feel even more inexplicable.
Wait a minute......
Shen Yuehua suddenly remembered something she heard a long time ago, it seemed that Ma Guihua wanted Zhang Jianbin to marry her maiden sister, and said that if it wasn't for her own intervention, the two of them would have been married a long time ago.
The two of them are childhood sweethearts, and the relationship is very close, plus Ma Guihua's sister, this woman who doesn't know the name, looks really good, and beautiful women, no matter what their inner personality is, are always easy to take advantage of, so their temperament is more arrogant than other women.
Shen Yuehua thought so, and then looked at the woman's critical and disdainful eyes, and at the same time felt funny in her heart, she also inexplicably had a nameless fire.
She glanced at Zhang Jianbin who was sitting on the man's side and was drinking tea, the man's expression was light and light, but he pricked up his ears to listen to the movement here, he was originally a soldier in the army, and his five senses were the most keen, after perceiving Shen Yuehua's gaze, he immediately turned his head and winked at her innocently.
Shen Yuehua was even more angry in her heart, this guy!
She turned her head away, didn't say a word, just hooked the corners of her mouth and smiled, no matter what she thought in her heart, in front of so many people, she couldn't lose her temper casually, and what the hell was going on, she hadn't figured it out, it was impossible to listen to other people's words, or she had suffered an unjustified disaster, and she was rolled her eyes a few times, so she ran to get angry with Zhang Jianbin .
This is too stupid, she is not a real little girl, she always has to be rational first, Zhang Jianbin is there, it is a big deal to torture him after he goes back.
Shen Yuehua thought so, and her face became more and more calm, which was unexpected by the two women in Ma Guihua's family, they glanced at each other without a trace, and then shook their heads.
When the meals were all ready, although Shen Yuehua was not hungry, she still barely ate something for the sake of the child in her belly.
The Zhang family eats without saying anything, but with so many relatives together, the Chinese dinner table culture is vividly displayed.
So, Shen Yuehua heard those relatives, not only them, but even Ma Guihua, who usually disliked her the most, was urged by her own mother, raised her head and reluctantly said to Shen Yuehua: "Yuehua, we all know that you also have a part in the factory, and I heard that you are still a big official, so can you vacate a few positions for our relatives, do you also know the father and son soldiers, we are all a family, recruit us, treat you and treat me to everyone." ”
What she said was too direct, but if it was tactful, it wouldn't be Ma Guihua.
After she finished speaking, seeing that Shen Yuehua still didn't react, she just raised her head, as if she was thinking, and thought that there was a door to this matter, and her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said even more beautifully, and said without hesitation: "You see, our family has just repaired the house, and every family has taken out money to build a house, this house is built, but we have no money on us, and now it's autumn again, and it will cool down in another month or two, and it will snow when we turn back. But you have to look for things to do everywhere, otherwise you won't have any money for the New Year. ”
She paused, and her tone also complained: "Hey, it's useless to say it, we can't get into that kind of unit and factory, it's just in previous years, but this year's factory was built, but it's the closest to us, if you want me to see, this is our opportunity, the work of this factory can be stable, and it is also counted as a division of work, which is a great thing." ”
Shen Yuehua looked at the nodding appearance of the relatives around her, sneered in her heart, and said embarrassedly: "It's indeed a good thing, but the factory is not mine, I just work with my cousin, my cousin, you know, he is good at everything, he is too decent, when he first made pastries, he didn't even look for his own sister-in-law, and later heard that my cooking skills are good, so he found mine." ”
What she said was a euphemistic refusal, the meaning was too obvious, Ma Guihua's face was ugly, she originally thought that Shen Yuehua was going to agree to it, but it was better not to say it.
This is not the only one she thinks, Ma Guihua's sister, and the woman who doesn't know what her name is, immediately said in a weird way: "If you don't want to help, just say it, and what do you push on others, I think some people are selfish, they have meat to eat, but even the people close to them want to drink soup, and they beg for everything, but they can refuse to say no, I want to see, it's better for us to do it ourselves, why bother to come to the hot face and stick the cold ass." ”
After she finished speaking, she simply stood up, and under her own mother's ugly expression, she looked up proudly and turned away.
Ma Guihua was stunned, even her own mother was not much better than her, although this is what she said, but who can really say this, this is even the last bit of the back road is broken.
Even if Shen Yuehua can't help in recruiting people, at least people can set obstacles for her, and now she has to hold a grudge, not to mention a young girl like Shen Yuehua, whose heart and measure are smaller than the tip of a needle.
Ma Guihua smiled wryly and said, "Yuehua, don't listen to my sister's nonsense, she is young and easy to say the wrong thing, I'm here to match you with a match." ”
Shen Yuehua felt ridiculous, which of them was the little girl, the girl Ma Guihua said, she was in her twenties, and she was only seventeen years old, and she would not be eighteen years old until November.
She rolled her eyes in her heart, and said very considerately: "I can understand her feelings, but I really can't help with this." ”
After she finished speaking, the expressions of those relatives also drooped, and they didn't even have the heart to eat.
Shen Yuehua said very embarrassed: "However, I can tell my cousin and ask him to take care of the people in our village, if you want me to say, as long as this factory recruits workers who are diligent and clean, and do not cheat and cheat, they can be recruited, besides, there are quite a lot of people recruited this time, so everyone can rest assured." ”
When the people here heard this, although they still didn't know anything in their hearts, they were much stronger than when they didn't know anything at the beginning.
Shen Yuehua glanced at the expressions on everyone's faces, and then lowered her head.
Raising a hundred kinds of people with the same rice, she is not a superpower who can see through other people's minds, what these people think, Shen Yuehua can probably guess, but she doesn't take it to heart, the words have already been said to this extent, everything that should be said has been said, and there is nothing to say.
So, the atmosphere of the next dinner finally returned to normal, and those relatives would not keep asking questions about the factory, but Ma Guihua's mother didn't run out to chase her daughter, but ate several bowls of rice in a big gulp, and even packed some fruit snacks and left, which made Shen Yuehua and the others speechless.
After dinner, Shen Yuehua felt sleepy, so she didn't stay long, seeing that Zhang Jianbin had also finished eating, she seemed to have been waiting for her, and when she said good night and was leaving, Zhang Jianbin stood up and said to his relatives, and the two of them went home together.
Because no one is at home today, it is very inconvenient to make a fire to boil water, and Shen Yuehua can't help but miss modern overheating, and even solar water heaters.
She squeezed toothpaste to brush her teeth, Zhang Jianbin on the side was also brushing her teeth, and he wanted to take a bath directly with cold water, but he was glared at by Shen Yuehua, so he scratched his head and just washed his face.
After washing, I had to wait until the hot water was boiled before taking a bath, and now that the time was empty, Shen Yuehua began to ask the teacher, she sternly put on a pretty face, and asked coldly: "That girl just now is the sister-in-law's sister, what's her name?" ”
Zhang Jianbin felt the danger, he touched his nose in embarrassment, but looking at Shen Yuehua's appearance, he could feel that she cared about herself, so she was happy in her heart.
However, he still made a confession on his face, and said righteously: "It is said that it is called Ma Guilan." ”
Shen Yuehua secretly rolled her eyes, Ma Guilan is Ma Guilan, what does it mean?
However, the names of people in this era all carry the unique characteristics of this era, such as the founding of the country, the leap forward, or osmanthus, Chunlan......
Therefore, the name Guilan is not out of line.
Shen Yuehua pursed her lips and continued to ask, "Then are you familiar with her?" To tell you the truth, I've heard that you used to know each other very well, and it is said that you are talking about marriage. ”
When Zhang Jianbin heard this, he suddenly felt a sigh in his heart, with the help of the light and moonlight, coupled with his excellent eyesight, he could see the smiling expression on Shen Yuehua's face, as well as the seriousness and exploration hidden deep in his eyes.
He sighed and said, "When I was a teenager, that girl said she was going to marry me, but I didn't like her like that, I really didn't know her well, and at that age I was respectful of women, and I couldn't play together at all." ”
He pursed his lips and said, "Moreover, I don't like women like my sister-in-law, not to mention that Ma Guilan is still my sister-in-law's own sister, even if she looks a little better, I don't look down on this kind of woman who will only cause trouble, and always like to move her in-law's things to her own house." ”
"For such a woman, marrying home is a trouble, just refer to my eldest brother for details." (To be continued.) )
