Chapter 29: Admitting Mistakes
Luo Zhiming sat down at the table with his buttocks, looking extremely tired, "I went to my mother-in-law's house, and by the way, I helped them do some work in the back mountain." ”
In fact, his fatigue was caused by the excessive "exercise" of the two of them in the back mountain in the morning, but Zhou Yunmei mistakenly thought that he was really tired of helping his mother-in-law's mother-in-law's family, and immediately his face sank, and he said to Luo Zhiming,
"Since you can help your mother-in-law's family do things, you can also help your own family work, don't just think about your mother-in-law's family if you want to do work in the future, your own work is also waiting for you to do, your eldest brother and sister-in-law no longer give money to the family, you will have to spend money in the future and earn it yourself."
Luo Zhiming was trained by Zhou Yunmei in front of a large family, and he was a little reluctant to go, so he agreed angrily, "I didn't think about using my eldest brother's money for the rest of my life, when I go to work in the city, I can support the two of us myself." ”
Zhou Yunmei nodded when she saw him say this, "That's right, I will only take care of the two of us in the future, you will have food when you come back, and I don't care about other things." ”
Luo Zhiming had no objection, and called Shang Xiuwei to sit at the table and prepare to eat.
But before the two of them sat down, Fang Pingying blocked the two with a spatula, and raised her eyebrows at Fang Xiu, "Fang Xiu, you haven't forgotten what I said this morning." ”
Fang Xiu's face sank, knowing what Fang Pingying was referring to, Fang Pingying said that if the two of them planned to continue to eat at home, they would have to admit their mistakes to Luo Zhiyong, otherwise they would have to come up with their own food money.
But Fang Xiu admitted his mistake in front of the family, and deliberately pretended not to know, "What are you saying, I don't remember." ”
"I don't remember, I remind you." Fang Pingying looked at Fang Xiu and smiled mockingly, and repeated the words of the morning, "Either pay for dinner, or confess your eldest brother's mistakes for the words you said this morning." ”
Fang Xiu's mouth pursed, refusing to admit his mistake.
Fang Pingying glanced at her, and when she saw that she didn't admit her mistake, she insisted on blocking it with a spoon to prevent the two of them from stepping forward.
Seeing this, Luo Zhiming immediately smiled at Fang Pingying, "Big brother, sister-in-law, I'm sorry, what Xiu'er said today is not right, she is also quick to speak, and I hope you don't take it to heart." ”
When it was over, he smiled again and said, "Sister-in-law, is this done, can we eat?" ”
Fang Pingying moved the spoon away a little and motioned for Luo Zhiming to sit on the side of the stool, but the other side of the spoon was still blocking Fang Xiu's way, "You can, but Fang Xiu can't, and that was said by Fang Xiu, the mistake must be recognized by her." ”
In the past, when she was at her mother's house, Fang Xiu suppressed Fang Pingying, even if Fang Xiu wanted to admit her mistake this time, she still refused to lower her head, and still stood in place and kept silent.
Fang Pingying was also patient, and continued to prevent her from sitting down to eat without admitting her mistake.
Zhou Yunmei came out to speak again, she persuaded Fang Pingying, "Pingying, everything is over, you still remember what to do so much, you are your own sister." ”
Fang Pingying asked Luo Honglan to pull Zhou Yunmei to sit down at the table, and looked at Fang Xiu with a somewhat stern expression, "It's my own sister-in-law, so I have to educate her to know what it means to do what it means to do what it means." ”
"And Fang Xiu," Fang Pingying said to Fang Xiu very strictly, "I repeat, it's not just this meal, if you refuse to admit your mistake today, I will directly leave you out when I eat in the future, and I won't do your share." ”
"If you make it yourself, you have to buy your own vegetables, and if I find out that you steal the vegetables I bought, I will ask you for money, and if you don't have money, you can use those things in your house to top, anyway, what kind of sewing machine and bicycle are worth a lot of money."
The Luo family was taken aback by Fang Pingying's words, they really had never seen a woman with such a hard temperament, they really dared to say and do it.
Especially Zhou Yunmei, she regretted that she had chosen Wanxuan before, and wanted to pick a soft persimmon to pinch, but she didn't expect to pick an iron persimmon in the end.
Speaking of these, Fang Xiu was also anxious, she was really afraid that Fang Pingying would really do what she said, and after weighing it, it seemed that admitting her mistake would cause the least loss.
She muttered softly, "Okay, don't you just admit your mistake, and you won't die." ”
Fang Xiu pursed his eyes, lowered his head and rolled his eyes, and when he looked up again, he repeated Luo Zhiming's words just now, "Big brother, I said it wrong this morning, I'm a quick talker, don't take it to heart." ”
Fang Pingying nodded with satisfaction and let Fang Xiu sit at the table to eat.
I don't know if it's because of these things before the meal that make everyone feel palpitations, or because there is some oil residue in the dish of stewed potatoes at noon today, everyone thinks that the meat is put, but no one protests that the dish is not good.
After eating the potatoes in her mouth, although she knew that it was not meat, it tasted good, there was some pork in her mouth, and Fang Pingying's cooking skills were also extremely good, except for Zhou Yunmei muttering a few words, no one in the family expressed dissatisfaction.
After eating, Fang Pingying instructed Fang Xiu to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and she went to the village commissary herself.
She thought about it, it would be good to go to the town to customize the kind of hawthorn sauce in glass bottles, but if it wasn't customized in large quantities, it was estimated that the price would be expensive.
And she only plans to get about a dozen cans this time, it is definitely not appropriate to order a bottle, she plans to go to the commissary to ask, to see if there are any empty bottles, she can spend some money to recycle, after coming back, blanch it with boiling water, and it is best to put hawthorn sauce in it.
The village commissary is owned by a husband and wife, both of whom are about forty years old, and they don't know whose health is wrong and they have never been able to have children.
But the husband and wife have flexible minds and can make careful calculations, and their lives are good.
Pingying went to their shop, and the proprietress Zhang Guiying asked with a smile, "What is Zhiyong's daughter-in-law here to buy, I have everything in my shop." ”
Looking at Fang Pingying, I don't know what to think of. Chong Fang Pingying blinked, whispered to the brown sugar in a glass bottle on the counter and said, "You see that this brown sugar has just come in, and it is most suitable for women like you who have just been married." ”
Fang Pingying guessed that what Zhang Guiying said was not a good thing, she lowered her head and smiled, and said to Zhang Guiying, "Auntie, I don't buy brown sugar, I just want to ask if there is canned food for sale in your shop?" ”
Zhang Guiying hurriedly took out two cans from the shop, "Yes, why not, there are canned oranges and lychees, which one do you want?" ”
"I don't buy cans, I just want this bottle." Fang Pingying felt a little embarrassed when she saw that Gui Ying was so enthusiastic and she didn't plan to buy it.
"I want bottles, but there are none, we sell cans to people, so it's hard to pour cans to people, and keep the cans for ourselves." Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Guiying heard that she was not here to buy canned food, she immediately put the canned food back on the shelf, and her smile was not so good-looking.
Seeing this, Fang Pingying hurriedly grabbed her and said with a smile, "Auntie, don't worry, I won't ask you in vain, I'll collect it for you with money, and an empty jar will count you as five cents." ”
"A jar for five cents?" As soon as Zhang Guiying heard that there was money to be made, she came to the momentum again.
"Yes." Fang Pingying nodded.
"You said you don't buy canned food, what do you want this can to do, and you still spend money to collect it." Zhang Guiying wondered, it stands to reason that this jar is useless, even if it is filled with things at home, there is no need to spend money to buy it.
Fang Pingying smiled at him, "Auntie, then don't worry about it, just say if you have any cans to sell, if not, I'll go to other places and ask, maybe the villagers in the village can buy it." ”
Hearing that Fang Pingying was going to ask others to buy it, Zhang Guiying immediately replied, "Yes, but there are not many, there are seven or eight, all of them are canned food that I have eaten by myself on weekdays, and I am reluctant to throw away the cans." ”
"That's right, I'll want all seven or eight." Fang Pingying didn't expect that there were so many, this time she needed a total of about eight jars, and she bought them all at once, so she didn't have to ask door to door, so as not to explain what she was doing one by one, and people who provoked some good things to inquire about her family.
Zhang Guiying got up to get it, but after walking a few steps, she came back to confirm again, "Five cents a piece?" ”
"That's right." Fang Pingying smiled and nodded.
"Okay, I'll get it for you." Zhang Guiyingle's eyebrows smiled, eight is four cents, and these things can only be sold for two cents if they are sold to the tatters.
