Chapter Eighty-Seven: Hard Sleeper, Hard Seat, Soft Sleeper?
() Xinxin didn't know what was going on in her mother-in-law's heart, she hurriedly finished the meal with a straight stomach, and turned on the computer to buy a ticket. The mother-in-law sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her grandson, but her heart was full of Xinxin's eagerness to buy tickets. For a while, embarrassment, grievances, anger, and sadness all came to my heart at once.
Xinxin was tapping on the computer on the side, and she was still asking what her parents-in-law's ID number was, and the mother-in-law, who had a sweet voice and a noisy voice, was annoyed and annoyed.
The mother-in-law was illiterate and did not know what was displayed on the computer. I saw Xinxin tossing for a long time, changing the page for a while, and finally turned around and said: "Mom, the sleeper only has the middle and upper bunks, what should I do?" ”
At that time, Mu Nan and Xinxin said that they should try to have two lower bunks, and if not, they would also have a lower bunk and a middle bunk. My parents-in-law are old, and it is very troublesome to climb up and down. Shin Shin tried twice, both in the middle and upper bunks. An ID card can only buy tickets three times a day, and Shin Shin doesn't dare to try again. She was out of the way all of a sudden, so she asked the old lady for her opinion with a bitter face.
The mother-in-law was not happy, so she said with a cold face: "The upper bunk and the middle bunk? How are you going to let us climb up? Then you might as well go back in a hard seat. ”
Xinxin was embarrassed and said, "This ...... How can this work? It's going to take one night. How can you stand it in a hard seat? Or do you still want to sleep, and see if you can change it with someone when the time comes. ”
The mother-in-law refused: "Who will change it with you." If you can't buy a lower bunk, just sit on a hard seat! ”
Xinxin ate her mother-in-law's deflated son, so she had to listlessly go to check the hard seat again. Yes, yes, but really let them sit on hard seats? Shin Shin was a little unbearable. After all, they're all that old. Suddenly, she found that there was a soft sleeper in the remaining ticket displayed, and the soft sleeper only had upper and lower bunks. It won't be so unlucky, and both of them must be top bunks. She was determined to give it a try, so she clicked in and ordered two. As soon as the show came out, yes, it was actually two lower bunks! Shin Shin is busy paying in a hurry, and today's point is more correct!
After buying the ticket, Shin Shin closed the computer satisfied. He turned around and said to his mother-in-law with a smile: "Mom, I bought two soft sleepers, lower bunks!" It's all lower bunks! ”
The mother-in-law was stunned for a moment, but did not smile, but said unhappily: "Soft sleep? Bunk? How expensive is a soft sleeper, it's all a scam. Who's going to burn to buy a soft sleeper! And it's the bottom bunk! The bottom bunk is the worst, people sit there and don't move, you can't sleep. ”
What is this? Didn't your old man just say that you can't climb up the middle bunk? Why did it change again after such a short period of time? Xinxin thought that her mother-in-law was just distressed about the lot of money, so she patiently explained to her: "It didn't cost much." Mom, you don't have to think about it so much. If you sit comfortably, we will be at ease. ”
Hmph, yes, you don't feel at ease when you drive us away, so you want to spend money to buy a peace of mind? Think beautifully. The mother-in-law completely went wrong with Xinxin's thoughts. She lowered her voice and said, "No, no, it's better to sit hard." Change me to a hard seat. ”
Shin Shin spread her hands helplessly and said, "The payment has been made." I can't change it. ”
The mother-in-law asked suspiciously: "I really can't return?" ”
Xinxin said affirmatively: "I really can't retreat." ”
The mother-in-law snorted angrily from her nose and went out with the curtain.
Xinxin sat there depressed, spent twice as much money, and was ready to be praised, aren't the filial and obedient daughters-in-law all like this to please the elderly? How did everything change when she got here? It feels like I'll never love again.
Mu Nan came back at noon, and as soon as she entered the door, she was stopped by her mother-in-law and said, "Why spend so much money to buy a soft sleeper?" Your dad and I have been frugal all our lives, just sit on a hard seat! Your children are still young, and you have no moderation in spending money, and there will be more places to use money in the future, how can you do it like this? ”
Mu Nan was confused, and hurriedly said, "I said that I bought you a hard sleeper?" What's the matter, changed to a soft sleeper? I don't know. I asked Shin Shin to buy it, wait for me to ask. ”
When the mother-in-law heard this, she puffed up and said, "Your daughter-in-law is too good at spending money, how much does she earn in a month, and you don't have enough money to get up early and be greedy here." ”
Mu Nan scratched his head and said, "Mom, don't worry, wait for me to ask." She should also be well-intentioned. ”
The mother-in-law snorted coldly and said, "Kind? Kindly bombard your mom away! Okay, okay, I know, you only have a daughter-in-law in your heart now. The child is too big to be a mother. I don't care, I can't care about you. Then he went back to the house and lay down.
Seeing this, Mu Nan shook his head helplessly, really, he had been at work in the morning and had not done anything! Why was he reprimanded by my mother as soon as I entered the door, I was really shot while lying down. He changed his shoes, washed his hands and face, and hurried into the house to ask Xinxin what was going on.
Xinxin was wronged by Bara and recounted the original story. Mu Nan frowned after hearing this and said, "You too." Since she said she wanted a hard seat, wouldn't you just buy her a hard seat? This is good, but it is not flattering to spend money. ”
Xinxin was also angry when she heard this, and said, "I really treat your parents as my own parents by doing this." They're so old, do you think it's appropriate to let them sit in a hard seat for the night? Since you think I'm not doing it well, then you can do this kind of thing yourself in the future, don't look for me again! ”
Mu Nan was beaten at both ends (dialect: criticism, reprimand), and rolled his eyes in anger. After a busy morning, when I get home, these are all kinds of bad things, can I still let people rest for a while? He left Xinxin in a bad mood and went out to eat by himself.
Shin Shin looked at the child in the house, muffled and silent. Mu Nan was chewing food outside the house, thinking that he couldn't eat it. The money is spent too much, and the old man is distressed, which is understandable; But Shin Shin's kindness is also rare. But both sides only look at their own reasons, which is really a headache. Mu Nan put down his rice bowl and knocked his head.
The mother-in-law saw it and said strangely, "Xiao Nan, what's wrong with you?" What's uncomfortable? ”
Mu Nan ignored her question, and said to herself: "Mom, you too, you can sit in peace if you buy a soft sleeper." It doesn't matter what money is not money. If you don't feel well on the road, you won't be able to get it back. People are more important than money, you know? ”
When the mother-in-law heard this, she was obviously looking forward to Xinxin, and she was a little unhappy. When my father-in-law saw it, he took over the conversation and said, "A soft sleeper is twice as expensive as a hard sleeper!" We didn't sit for a long time, we arrived in one night. ”
Mu Nan sighed and said, "Isn't that to get you a lower bunk?" Isn't there no lower berth in a hard sleeper? ”
The mother-in-law interjected: "Didn't you buy the lower bunk last time?" That's the time you asked a colleague to buy it. ”
Mu Nan grinned and said, "People had acquaintances that time. Now the acquaintance of that colleague has retired. What do you want me to do? ”
The mother-in-law said, "Can't you find someone else?" ”
Xinxin couldn't help but say in the house: "How easy is it to ask for someone? Besides, the tickets are relatively tight now. ”
The father-in-law was a little dissatisfied with Xinxin's casual interjection, and replied to her: "We will only leave the day after tomorrow, and there are two more days, can you find someone again?" We're not in a hurry. ”
Xinxin was a little speechless, Mu Nan hurriedly said: "The ticket for the day after tomorrow, if you don't buy it today, you won't have it tomorrow." Where can I find someone for you? You must be in the village. Everybody knows your son. ”
The mother-in-law muttered, "Why can't you do it, don't you just find an acquaintance?" Seeing Mu Nan glance at her irritably, he reluctantly stopped.
