The mother-in-law wandered around the cloth stall in the free market for a long time, bent on finding a few pieces of fabric to make cotton clothes for the children. When I was in my hometown, my mother-in-law used red and green cloth to make cotton clothes for her children. Strangely, I can't find a single piece of cloth like that here. Bright-colored fabrics, basically light-colored, if you make clothes and pants, you can't help but get dirty, once the child pees on it, the yellow and yellow can't be washed off, don't! Dark fabric, either gray, black, or brown, children wear this is not happy, don't! In this way, the mother-in-law looked left and right, either too plain or too shallow, and she didn't find a piece she liked.

The vendor who bought the cloth asked her what she wanted, and she told the family, and they replied to her: "Old lady, you are all old yellow calendars, who wants that kind of cloth now?" The kind of tricks you are talking about are long outdated. ”

The mother-in-law shook her head and said in her heart: You didn't just say that people are outdated, cut, I don't know about you people who do business?

Grandma Zhang heard her mother-in-law's request on the side, so she said to her: "If you are not too far away, let's take the bus to the suburbs to catch the market tomorrow, there should be the old-fashioned cloth you want." ”

"Huh? I'm going to go to the village, but I'm not going. Aunt Li didn't wait for her mother-in-law to answer, and rushed to say that she didn't want to lose her status as a city person, in her eyes, the garbage cans on the street corners of the city were more advanced than those in the village.

The mother-in-law was very interested, and pulled Grandma Zhang and said, "I'll go with you!" Let's go tomorrow! ”

Grandma Zhang said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry, when I go back to check the calendar, people's big gatherings are not every day, and they will only be opened every three or eight days." ”

When I got home that day, my mother-in-law urged my father-in-law to check the calendar to check when the lunar calendar was on the third and eighth days. My father-in-law opened the calendar and saw that today was the eighth day of the new year, and if he wanted to catch the market, he had to wait for five days until the thirteenth. The mother-in-law was not discouraged, and while counting the days, she reported to her father-in-law the great harvest of the day - a free market with fresh and cheap things. My mother-in-law has already made up her mind, and in the future, everything will be bought in the free market, and a penny cheaper is a penny.

The next day, my mother-in-law asked Grandma Zhang to go to the free market. Originally, she called Aunt Li, but Aunt Li refused to go because of the long distance. So there were only two left: mother-in-law and Grandma Zhang. The free market is indeed far away from the community than the supermarket, but Grandma Zhang has been used to it for many years and does not think that when her mother-in-law is in her hometown, it is not only this distance to go back and forth a few times, so it is naturally not a problem. So the two talked and laughed and walked unconsciously.

Yesterday, my mother-in-law patronized the cloth and didn't go to the market carefully, this time I started from the vegetable market at the door, and walked all the stalls all the way. The market is very large, and the two old ladies pick and choose, and it took them more than half a day to finish. Seeing that the sun was already high, my mother-in-law realized that it was too late to go back to cooking, and she was in a hurry.

When Grandma Zhang saw it, she reminded her: "Otherwise, you can learn from me, buy some cold dishes here, and just stir-fry a hot dish at home." ”

The mother-in-law was overjoyed when she heard this, and took Grandma Zhang to the cooked food stall. Originally, I just wanted to buy some small cold dishes, but my mother-in-law saw that there were all kinds of braised meat here, so she wanted to buy a little together, and even fried hot dishes could be saved when she went back. But I asked a few restaurants, but they were all expensive, and it was much more cost-effective than buying raw meat and going back to make it yourself. The mother-in-law was hesitating, and a stall owner said, "I have some leftovers from yesterday here, if you don't like it, I can sell it cheaper for you." When the mother-in-law heard this, she nodded happily, and simply wrapped it up at once, and by the way, she asked the stall owner to give her a few cheaper yuan.

At noon, Xinxin saw that there was braised pork on the table, which was a novelty, and asked, and her mother-in-law happily told her that it was bought in the free market, which was cheap and affordable. Mu Nan ate very happily, which made her mother-in-law very happy. It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, Mu Nan had a stomach trouble at night, Xinxin suspected that the meat was not good, and her mother-in-law stubbornly said that she also ate it, why was it okay? Mu Nan was afraid that her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would fight over this again, so she lied and said that she had eaten a cold drink in the unit in the afternoon, maybe the cold drink was too cold. Xinxin then pouted and went back to the room. Seeing that Xinxin was gone, Mu Nan told her mother-in-law to throw away the rest of the meat, and her mother-in-law still had to argue, Mu Nan said, "Where did I eat any cold drinks in the afternoon?" I said this because I was afraid that your daughter-in-law would make trouble. Bacheng really has a problem with that meat, so you can throw it away. ”

The mother-in-law agreed aggrievedly, but she was still unconvinced, looking at a good piece of meat, how could she be willing to throw it away like this? When she saw that Mu Nan also went back to the room, she secretly ate it herself. In the middle of the night, my mother-in-law felt colic in her stomach, so she hurriedly got up and went to the toilet, but she actually had a stomach upset, and her stomach tossed back and forth and pulled four or five times and still hurt intermittently. The father-in-law was anxious, so he called Mu Nan to find her medicine for acute enteritis and took it, so she got better. The mother-in-law knew that it was the piece of meat that was causing trouble, but she didn't dare to say it, so she had to endure the stomach pain and secretly scolded the black-hearted butcher with a wolf heart and dog lungs.

Fortunately, my mother-in-law was in a strong body, and the effect of the medicine was very fast, and after this night, my mother-in-law felt that there was basically nothing. But after all, she is old, and she is still a little panicked when she wakes up in the morning.

When Xinxin heard her mother-in-law get up at night, she estimated that there was a problem with eating meat. She thought: This time I didn't eat much because I didn't taste right, what if my mother-in-law went to buy this kind of thing next time and came back? It's hard to guarantee that everyone won't have any problems eating because of this. But after this period of getting along, she also knows that the old lady is most annoyed by others pointing fingers at her, it's okay if you don't say it, the more she talks, the more energetic she becomes. It seems that it is still necessary to save the country by curves. So when I got up early in the morning, Xinxin pulled Mu Nan and said: "The inspection of things in the free market is not standardized, and there are many fakes, especially cooked food, how can there be any guarantee?" You told your mom not to go there to buy anything in the future, okay? Mu Nanzheng felt that her mother-in-law went to the free market to buy vegetables too far and too hard, and the two hit it off. In the end, Xinxin also specially instructed Mu Nan, not to mention that Xinxin proposed it. When making breakfast, Mu Nan ran to the kitchen and talked to her mother-in-law.

Although the mother-in-law didn't think so, she was still happy when she saw that her son was thinking about herself, and she patiently said to Mu Nan: "You are still young, you have to save some money in life, who knows how much money you will have in the future." Your father and I were eager to break a penny in half at that time, and you look at you now, especially your daughter-in-law, who buys a piece of clothing on the left and a piece of clothing on the right every day, and I haven't seen her wear it a few times when I buy it. What else do you buy from the Internet, this guy, sitting in the quilt and spending money, it's really unusual. Although I'm tired and running farther, I can save you a little bit. ”

Mu Nan persuaded her: "Now that the times are developing so fast, your way of living is no longer applicable." In today's society, money is so much, if you save a dime today, tomorrow it may not even be worth nine cents, and it is better to earn it if you can save it. Your son is not short of your two money. You're happy, healthy and healthy better than anything else! You just listen to me, let's go to the supermarket and buy something. ”

Although the mother-in-law was not persuaded by Mu Nan, seeing that her son was so filial, it was difficult to insist anymore, and Aunt Li was very reluctant to go to the free market with them, so the mother-in-law resumed the routine of buying vegetables in the supermarket.

Xinxin saw it, and felt a lot more relieved, and even Kua Mu Nan was able to do it this time. Mu Nan is also beautiful in her heart, it seems that she is still very good at persuading others, and her mother is still very face-saving and understands herself!
