These words are ostensibly criticizing me, but in fact, they are helping me to confirm that I have no money, so that my mother should not go back to bragging. Otherwise, everyone in a village will come to borrow money, see if your mother can take it out?

Mom was so frightened when she heard this: "I really didn't expect this!" Cailian is really an understanding person! ”

After a while, my mother said proudly: "You said that this Sun E married a daughter-in-law in the city, how arrogant she was at the beginning!" If you have the opportunity, you will laugh at me with Duan Qiuyue, but what is the result? I found a woman who got married for the second time and got divorced, broke my leg, and drank at home every day, and there was no one like that! ”

"Don't go and quarrel with her." I said.

Mom snorted: "If she doesn't mess with me, I naturally ignore her!" Now do you think she dares to come out of front of me? And Duan Qiuyue has a virtue! ”

The sister-in-law said: "Although Gao Hu is not good, Sun Hong has a job, and he will not go anywhere." ”

"You don't know! Gao Hu has nothing to do all day long, he doesn't do any work, Sun Hong has a big belly, and he doesn't have anything to eat. A few days ago, Duan Qiuyue fought with him again, but Gao Hu was not ambiguous at all, Duan Qiuyue's face was beaten out with a big bruise, and he couldn't go out. When I talked about the unfortunate things in other people's families, my mother was so excited.

I frowned and said, "What about Sun Hong?" He didn't go back to the village? ”

"I didn't come back, I guess I didn't have the face to come back."

I hurriedly said, "She didn't go home, she wasn't in the city, where did she go?" ”

"How do you know?"

"I listen to food...... I've heard from people. Hurry up and find out, where can she go with a big belly now? ”

Mom said: "This matter has nothing to do with our dime, her mother always scolds you and no one wants it, your second brother is a gambler or something, you still take care of her girl's affairs on the pole, why are you so shameless and skinless!" Don't take care of it! ”

I didn't bother to talk to her, and I didn't speak.

"I'm talking to you, do you hear me?"

I said coldly: "Mom, just talk nonsense, how big is Duan Qiuyue's face, and you can still see such a big bruise at the mouth of the bowl?" ”

My sister-in-law was very sad, but when she heard me, she couldn't help but laugh.

At noon, we simply put a few steamed buns on the stove and roasted them, and soon the whole house was filled with the smell of wheat, and we ate pickled vegetables and had a meal. It's such a simple meal, and my mother keeps nagging us about wasting it.

"The food in the city is precious! Don't eat fine grains all the time, if you get used to eating, can you still eat cornmeal? ”

The sister-in-law smiled: "We know! If I hadn't seen my mother coming, I wouldn't have made steamed buns. ”

"Now your second brother's family can occasionally eat a white flour bun, you ......"

I sneered: "If the second brother's family asks for food in the future, we have to go with it?" It's not easy for us to make money, and we can't eat better, so what are we doing alive, just die! ”

"You kid, why can't you say it? Isn't your second sister-in-law pregnant......"

"My sister-in-law is also pregnant! You always think about them, you ignore us here, and you are embarrassed to talk about us? Who is to blame if he can't eat white-flour steamed buns? It's not a cripple, he starves if he can't earn it, who owes him! ”

My mother slapped me twice angrily, and my sister-in-law hurriedly persuaded me.

I said: "Sister-in-law, don't persuade her, she is distressed when she sees us eating white noodles, thinking that if we change, we will eat corn in the village, and the second brother will take her to enjoy happiness in the city." ”

Mom snorted: "Everyone is like this, they are all fighting for their son, your second brother is the pillar of the family..."

She swallowed it back without finishing her words. Because the sister-in-law's face is already very bad. How can I have time to go over and the boss directly talk about the second son?

I pulled my sister-in-law: "Did you hear that?" None of us are important characters, and we don't have to get over in the future, let her and the pillars pass. ”

The sister-in-law didn't speak, and walked to the side to clean up the ashes.

Mom regretted it, she persuaded for a while, and any blow was a foil to each other, and we didn't care about anything if we were in trouble. Then he glared at me again, but I didn't see it.

By the afternoon, we had sold less than thirty dollars, the least profitable day since I started selling vegetables. I was secretly happy in my heart.

"Qiao'er, don't be sad, it'll be fine." Sister-in-law said.

I smiled: "Nothing, it's a big deal, just serve some cheap food." As long as the family can help out, the current apple sales are good, but my capital is not enough. ”

Mom didn't squeak, so she wouldn't give me a penny!

Seeing that it was almost half past five, my mother got up and said, "Okay, let's go home, Zhiguo guesses it's time to come at this time, right?" Hurry up and cook him some food, he is very tired from work, and he has to eat this hot meal when he comes home. ”

I said in my heart, I guess I can pass this level, and my sister-in-law is probably going to start. Sure enough, my sister-in-law bit her lip, her face was a little pale, and I knew that I couldn't be nervous. I took my sister-in-law's hand, winked at her, and my sister-in-law nodded knowingly, and we followed me home with my mother.

Along the way, my mother was looking at the night scene of the city in a novel way, she had never seen the street lights on, the dim light, the lights of the residential buildings on both sides, and the snow scene on the ground, it was quite beautiful.

I said, "Mom, isn't this city beautiful?" ”

She said, "Yes! If your second brother can establish himself in the city like you, why am I still worried? Qiao'er! If you have the ability in the future, you can't coax me, no matter what, you have to help your second brother a little, not for her, but also for my grandson to enter the city. Do you want to stay there and farm? ”

I smiled and said, "My sister-in-law is also pregnant, isn't she pregnant with our child?" The eldest brother just stayed in the city. It's really a good son who never forgets her pillar. ”

The sister-in-law hurriedly said, "Qiao'er, Mom didn't mean that!" ”

Mom smiled and said, "It's okay! Qiao'er She has not been crooked for a day or two, I have already found someone to calculate, the baby that your sister-in-law is pregnant with is a female baby, your second sister-in-law is a male baby, and the last time is also a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, that person is accurate. Our Wang family is considered to have a queen! ”

I glanced at my sister-in-law, who smiled and stroked her belly.

"I like it both male and female." She was delighted at the mention of her child.

"It's okay! Now the policy of one and a half children, a girl can have another one. Mom said.

The sister-in-law shook her head: "I have discussed it with Zhiguo, so I want this one and cultivate it well." The consumption in the city is high, and it is too sinful to feed two children, and Zhiguo earns less and cannot afford to support it. ”

Mom's face changed: "That's not good!" If you can't give birth to a son, be careful that the people in the village laugh at you to death! ”

I said, "In the future, they won't be in the village again, what's the joke?" Sister-in-law did the right thing, if you give birth to a few children, the girl should be treated the same as me, she can't eat or drink, and she is not as good as the livestock in that pen. ”

Mom is angry: "Are you scolding me for being inferior to you?" ”

"Humph! If you want it to work, you have to feed some good forage, I'm so tired, you still pick and choose to eat a steamed bun, I hate that I will eat bran and save the money for my second brother. Girls aren't human! ”

"You say that's useless! Anyway, it's good to have a boy in the family! ”

"Look at the Fang family in the next village, I don't know what's good about raising so many boys!"

At the beginning, the Fang family gave birth to three boys in a row, and they could walk sideways in the village, blowing whoever they caught, laughing at those who had no sons, and later, because they wanted to marry a daughter-in-law to their family, smashed pots and sold iron, and owed a bunch of famine, and now several children do not feed them, and those who wear tattered clothes every day ask for food in other villages.

"Now it's a new society, giving birth to boys and girls is the same, and I haven't seen how good a man like our second brother is."

"Do you want to talk less about your second brother?" The mother said angrily: "Cailian, if you are a girl in this fetus, you must give birth to a second one." This is my mother-in-law's order! ”

The sister-in-law was unusual, and said firmly: "No, I will only give birth to one." ”

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, I hurriedly smiled and grabbed my mother: "Why are you in a hurry!" This child was not born, so he quarreled? The pillars of our family can give you two sons, don't keep staring at my sister-in-law's belly! ”
