Chapter 974: Clever Woman
Add more, ask for pink.
…
Xu is the cooperation of Jiang and Lian Shouren today particularly pleased Zhou, and Zhou's mood suddenly became very good. She asked Lian Ya'er to bring the box on the cabinet. The box was only sent by Lian Man'er's family, and it was full of good snacks.
Zhou opened the box, reached in and picked it up, first picked out two crispy pieces, one for Lian Ya'er and Da Niuniu, and another one for Jiang.
"Milk, I don't eat it, you can eat it." Jiang Shi waved his hand in a hurry.
"What's the matter, why do you think I'm burying it?" Zhou was unhappy and said that being able to give the dim sum to the Jiang family was her great grace to the Jiang family, and if the Jiang family didn't want it, it would not give her face. "Give it to you, and you will eat. We don't keep these two boxes of dim sum, and we don't give them to anyone,...... Let's have a good time. ”
Jiang has always known Zhou's temperament, and daughters-in-law, whether they are daughters-in-law or granddaughters-in-law, are outsiders to Zhou. As an outsider's daughter-in-law, she naturally has to endure hardships first, but she should not have a share in it. It's just that she is a little more decent in front of Zhou's than even the daughters-in-law of the family. Because of this, she had to be more careful so as not to make Zhou angry.
Because she is somewhat decent, and there are good food and easy to use at home, Zhou will sometimes give her some. And at this time, she can't give it to Zhou, she wants it. Sometimes, Zhou's just said that if she asked for it with a solid heart, it would make Zhou's unhappy, and behind her back, she would say that she was greedy.
And today, she heard Zhou say this, and knew that Zhou had to give it to her, so she dared to take it.
"Milk. Who would dare to think you of burying it. This street, who doesn't know that you are the cleanest and neatest. If you don't think we're buried, we'll all be happy. Jiang said with a smile.
This sentence made Zhou even more happy. Zhou prides itself on being clean and clean. I also like others to flatter her like this.
“…… That is, now, old, with one eye open and one eye closed, when I was young. A hundred times cleaner than now. You, even if you are a young man who loves cleanliness, is far worse than I was at the time. Zhou said with a smile.
"Well, I don't dare compare to milk." Jiang Shi also laughed.
Zhou picked another piece of larger pink and white cake and asked the big girl to hand it to Lian Shouren, and then chose another piece and gave it to Lian Jizu, and finally. She took the softest piece of snack for herself. Just the tea brought by the Jiang family. I ate it one bite at a time.
Jiang Shi and others were all accompanying him, Jiang Shi saw that Zhou was in a very good mood at this time, and remembered what Zhou said just now. must be referring to the fact that Gorou wants to marry a daughter-in-law, so he wants to take the opportunity to persuade Zhou a few words.
"Milk." Jiang Shi laughed and said cautiously, "Wulang marries a daughter-in-law, let's give something." Such a big thing, that's also your old grandson. ”
"I don't have anything." Zhou swallowed a mouthful of dim sum and drank two sips of tea. "You didn't hear it, and people don't know my little thing."
"Milk, after all, it's a big joy, and when the new daughter-in-law enters the door or something, everyone has to meet. Etiquette or something, we can't lack it, and it also saves people from paying attention to it. Seeing that Zhou still said this, Jiang had to continue to persuade, "My fourth uncle and fourth aunt probably don't expect us to send any gold and silver treasures or valuable things, and they also know what the situation is in our family." Let's give a little bit, it's our heart. ”
"I'm all the rage, I don't earn a penny, what's there, it's all his share for me, and I'll give it to him? Back and forth, it's better to give nothing. Zhou finished eating the snack, pulled out a big handkerchief from under his buttocks, wiped his mouth, slapped his face again, and said, "I'm so godly, he can't expect me to do any work for him, right?" ”
Lian Zhi'er got married, and Zhang's mother's family sent a lot of needles and threads, and the Zhou family naturally knew about this later. When she says something like this now, she is comparing it to the Li family.
"He's not afraid to break his life!" Zhou snorted coldly again, "If you ask me what kind of person I am, I will slap him?" There is no way in this life, and in the next life, he will be my father! ”
The more Jiang listened to Zhou's words, the more unpleasant he became, and the more he spoke, the more unreasonable he became, embarrassed and anxious.
I don't know what's going on, the Zhou family recognized this door - that is, she doesn't give anything to the people who keep their promises, and they don't give them a good face, it seems that only in this way can she have dignity, she is an elder, and let others see that she is a person with backbone, and she still firmly grasps the family of Lian Shouxin.
Jiang didn't dare to speak anymore because he didn't sound good when he heard Zhou's words, and he was afraid that she would say something even more ugly.
After finishing the snack, Jiang secretly gave Lian Jizu a look, and went to his house in the west first. When Lian Jizu returned to the West House, he saw Jiang rummaging through boxes and cabinets.
"What are you looking for?" Even Jizu asked Jiang.
"Found it." Jiang Shi took out a small bag from the innermost part of the suitcase, hugged it to the kang and opened it.
Inside the baggage, there are two pieces of silk, and there are also some purses, and many winds of various colors and patterns. The two pieces of silk are plain, but the texture is quite good, and the two pieces of silk are embroidered with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes.
Look at the needlework and embroidery, they are all extremely delicate and beautiful.
"What are you ......" Lian Jizu asked suspiciously when he saw that Jiang was carefully packing the things in his baggage.
"Gorou marries a daughter-in-law, if our grandmother doesn't give anything, we can be bare-handed?" Jiang Shi glanced behind Lian Jizu, and when he saw that the door was closed, he said in a low voice, "What is our milk, and no one can do anything." Her generation is there, and she is the mother of the fourth uncle. Who are we? ”
"I really don't send anything, and when we go out of this door in the future, everyone else will have to poke our backbones. Besides, how many more years can our grandmother live, can we all go with her? In the future, we won't be able to do it ourselves? For such a big thing, we don't give any gifts, what do the fourth uncle, fourth aunt, and gorou think of us? In the future, are we embarrassed to stand in front of others? ”
"It's reasonable, there's no one who doesn't pull out a dime." Saying that, Jiang Shi was also a little moved, "Don't say how many things we have to ask for in the future, even if we don't ask for anything, we won't do it." ”
"I understand what you're saying." Even Jizu sighed and said, "But our grandmother, who can say listen to her." She's the sky! We don't have any money, our grandmother has money in her hands, she said that, she definitely won't take it out to do this. ”
"So, I've been preparing for a long time, and when we wait for today, we'll wait to lose face." Jiang said.
“…… When did you start preparing for this? Lian Jizu showed some joy on his face and asked Jiang Shidao.
"It's too early." Jiang Shi said, and glanced at Lian Jizu again, "You are happy now, it's not time for you to be angry with me." I don't give you money to spend, and that's because I have this purpose. You forgot, I told you about this purpose at the time. ”
Even the step-ancestor had nothing to say, just laughed.
Nowadays, Zhou always says that Lian Shouren is living her life, but in fact, it is not true. The Zhou family has a pension field that is given by Lian Shouxin and Lian Shou Li, as well as the continuous daily supply of Lian Shouxin's family. The Zhou family has a lot of money in their hands, this is the truth. And Lian Shouren, Lian Jizu, Jiang and Da Niuniu, a few families, also have six acres of land under their names.
They didn't rent out the six acres of land, they planted them themselves.
This is what Chiang insisted on. The original plan of Lian Shouren and Lian Jizu was to give away the six acres of land under their names, anyway, with the help of the Zhou family, they were not afraid that they would not be able to live.
The Jiang family is more calculating than the two of them. She insisted on leaving the field to grow by herself, and after some persuasion, she persuaded Lian Shouren and Lian Jizu. On the one hand, she urged Lian Shouren and Lian Jizu to work in the field, and on the other hand, she was also ruthless, and she also went to the field to learn to farm. These few people are not used to doing rough work, and the land is only so-so, but after this move, it has also improved the opinion of the people around them.
Even Shouxin and Zhang's because of this incident, they secretly said that this family is not hopeless, but they actually feel very relieved.
And the production in the fields is almost enough for the rations of a few people. On Zhou's side, she only took care of herself and Lian Ya'er's food and drink, and took out money separately to help make up some fish, meat, oil, salt, etc.
It can be said that the family's food and clothing still depend on themselves, and they can live the life that they can live now, which can be regarded as eating and drinking spicy food, and it depends on the Zhou family.
Even Shouren was so groveling in front of the Zhou family, and a large part of it was because of the delicious food and drink. Every time the Zhou family made a fuss, after scolding Lian Shouren fiercely, he would often use a good meal to redeem it, and the cycle began over and over again.
Therefore, the Jiang family did not have much money in his hands. The surplus grain that can be sold every year is very small, and the other is to raise two pigs every year, and the rest of the money, including the money from selling eggs, cannot reach her hands, and it is all held by Zhou.
The money from the sale of grain and pigs also has to pay for daily expenses, so the money that can be saved every year is very limited. The money she spent on buying these silks and needles was saved little by little, and then she used her free time to embroider, sew, and weave little by little.
In her heart, she has long been clear about the purpose of these things, first Gorou, and then Lian Man'er, all of whom have to do big things in the past two years. And the practice of preparing needlework and thread, which is very suitable for her current family background and identity, is not entirely inspired by Li and others.
In general, this is done at home.
The Jiang family packed up the things in the baggage one by one, and talked to Lian Jizu in a low voice.
“…… Her second uncle and the Luo family have been living for a few years, it is not the reason for the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt to find it, take care of them everywhere, can they have today? Last time Zhi'er went out, her second aunt sold all the pigs and gave her such a large amount of makeup. We're not as good as them! ”
