Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Attitude Is Cold
Although my mother didn't speak loudly, her tone was very firm, and she was no longer afraid of my uncle.
"Big brother, we are two families after all, we don't have to make do with each other, right? We have never asked for anything good about your family, and you don't have to think about us all the time in your life. Let's live our own lives. ”
"I said you have to do it, if you don't do it, you can't do it! You don't give face like this, how will I live in the village in the future? He Fa shouted angrily, shaking our ears to the ground.
Mom was not afraid and said indifferently: "You don't always have to bully our orphans and widows, you have the ability to figure out the affairs of your family Xiang'er, why bother to find face on us outsiders." ”
He Fa pointed at her: "You...... How dare you speak like that? You're learning so badly now! ”
Hexiang's matter made the uncle three points shorter in front of her, and he was obviously a little lacking in confidence.
My mother sneered: "What are you staring at, I am the same generation as you, and you still want to beat me?" ”
"Let me ask you again, do you want to go to my house?"
"Don't go!"
Uncle gritted his teeth and said: "I am watching your hardships, I want to help you, you can eat something good during the New Year, I didn't expect you to have a crooked heart, and treat our kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs!" ”
"Big brother, don't worry, even if our mother and daughter eat bran vegetables and ask for food in the future, it will definitely not drag down your family, you don't have to worry about us if you have anything delicious, I can't do those jobs when I'm old. You don't have to count on it. ”
"What about Niko? She can't do it, I'm her uncle, she has to listen to me! ”
Mom smiled and said, "Then did you, the elder, give Nizi New Year's money?" Or do you want to buy her a dress or something? I haven't given any benefits, and I want to keep oppressing? There is no such thing. ”
"I won't tell you, I'll go find her!"
Mom stopped in front of him and didn't let him in, but He Fa pushed him aside.
He grabbed the door and was about to come in, but I stopped him directly from the inside: "I have a period, I am very uncomfortable, you don't have to point at me to work a year ago!" ”
"You...... You girl... What do you say, lie in order not to work! ”
The menstrual affairs of rural women are a taboo topic, especially since my uncle is still my elder, and when I say such a thing in front of me, his face has turned purple with sauce.
"What proof do you have that I'm lying?" I sneered, I don't believe that he is a big man pulling my pants to see!
He Fa shouted: "Don't talk about this, you don't have a face, I still have a face!" He looked around in alarm.
"Uncle! I haven't gotten up yet, you're going to break into my house, and you're embarrassed to say you want face? Who the hell is more shameless between the two of us? You just want to find a minion, and you can't interfere with other people's menstrual affairs, right? Why, do you want your two daughters to come and see with your daughter-in-law? ”
The uncle was so angry that he vomited blood, screamed and left, and met a few people carrying water on the way, and they all asked curiously what was wrong. But he couldn't say anything about it, he said that he was angry, stretched out his hand and pushed the man away angrily.
I couldn't help but laugh.
Mom slapped me on the arm: "What are you talking about!" You drove him away like this, but it's not easy to turn around when Zhou Yufeng comes, and her character won't let you go! ”
"Hehe, it's okay, now her precious daughters are like that, looking for death and life for the divorce, she won't come, how can she be in the mood to care about my affairs." I went to the outhouse to wash my face.
Mom stopped talking, but finally just sighed.
We made a big pot of jade noodle porridge and ate a few sweet potatoes for breakfast.
After breakfast, the wind began to blow outside, and there was no way to go to the town.
Mom hurried up to cut out the clothes for Liao Qiang, her skills in making clothes are good, Liao Qiang's body shape is similar to my father's before, so there is no need to measure his size, just cut it out.
Mom said: "We don't have a sewing machine at home, so we can only go to Zheng Sisi's house to borrow it, and you are ...... with her now." Okay? ”
Although she didn't care about my business, she was as careful as a hair, and found that I didn't associate with her anymore. In fact, even if she was in contact with me, she didn't want me to use it, I had always been good to her in my previous life, when did she help me do anything?
I smiled and said, "I'll just go to the clothing store at the entrance of the village and spend some money to sew it in a hurry." ”
"It's better not to be like this, Zheng Sisi's family has a sewing machine, but you have to trouble others, she will think more, you go and see it first, if she is not happy, you go to the tailor shop, she knows how to pick and choose."
"Okay."
"Then I'll stay at home and remove the quilt."
I smiled and nodded: "Then you wait for me to come back and we'll wash together." ”
Mom smiled: "I'll wash it myself slowly and hurry." ”
I packed up a bag of dried sweet potatoes drying in the house, as well as a few balls fried last night, and carried those cloths to Zheng Sisi's house, which were higher than the sewing cost for the tailor.
I haven't been to her house since I was reborn, and she hasn't come to look for me, so I think she must be very angry.
The yard of her house is very large, and it is the first family in the village to install a large iron gate, which is very magnificent. When I went, I happened to see Zheng Sisi picking red peppers at the door. In autumn, the people in the village will hang red peppers on skewers at the door, and in the winter when they stir-fry vegetables, they can go in to improve the taste.
She was wearing a long fuchsia padded jacket, with home-made cotton pants underneath, long braids hanging down behind her, and her beautiful face was only the size of a palm, no matter how much I hated her, I couldn't deny that she was a very beautiful girl.
As soon as she turned around, she saw me and smiled, "Nizi, you're here." I haven't seen you in days. ”
"yes, my legs aren't very good, and I haven't been out of the house." I smiled and nodded.
Zheng Sisi smiled faintly: "I haven't been at home these days, I haven't seen you, do you have something?" ”
When I saw her coldness, I didn't say anything about the idea of borrowing a sewing machine, I had the fabric in my hand, how could she not know what I was going to do, but it seemed that I would bring shame on myself if I said it, so I just said to see her.
"I'm just here to see you."
Zheng Sisi smiled: "I originally wanted to talk to you more, but I'm going to visit the door soon." ”
"Okay, I'll bring these things for you to eat, and I'll leave first if you have something to do. Let's get back to it! I said and turned around and walked out of the yard, Zheng Sisi didn't send me, and there was a loud sound of slamming the door behind me.
I looked back, didn't stop, and kept walking.
This is a year ago, every household is cleaning and preparing New Year's goods, how can there be a visit, but since she said so, I will never expose her.
After only walking out a few steps, I saw Liao Qiang hurrying over with two bottles of wine, and when he saw me, he hurriedly grinned: "Are you here?" Nizi, are you here to find Sisi? ”
I smiled and said, "Yes, let's come and see Sisi, but she said she was going to visit the door, so I left first." ”
"I didn't hear she was going to visit the door." Liao Qiang smiled: "Is she angry with you?" You haven't seen each other, and she's having a little temper over there. Let's go, I'll help you reconcile! ”
I smiled and shook my head: "No need! You can talk to her. I've got something to do. Oh, I sent some dried sweet potatoes and meatballs to her, you can eat with her, you should also know what the conditions of my house are. Don't be disgusted. ”
Liao Qiang hurriedly smiled: "How can you dislike it, thank you." Oh, by the way, we got engaged on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, so come and join if you have time. ”
"Done! I'll be sure to go over sometime. I walked straight away.
I went to the clothing store at the entrance of the village, just in time for people to eat and clean up the house, I gave him five cents, this dress style is simple, there is not too much needlework, using their sewing machine, it will not take long to sew the clothes, the rest of the buttons are sewn out by themselves with needle and thread, I have also been to work in a garment factory in my previous life, so the speed is very fast.
The tailor couldn't help but praise when he saw it: "Your skills are good, you're about to catch up with a successful hand!" ”
I laughed and said, "In that case, if you have any odd jobs in the future, just do it for me." ”
The man laughed, "No, if I give it to you, I won't have much business." ”
I laughed with him. There is indeed not much work in the village, and he can barely make ends meet, so how can he give me a job? I thought to myself that maybe when I went to work in a restaurant in the city, I would take on some sewing work when I had time, so that I could save money faster.
But if that's the case, you have to have a sewing machine, and the price of taking things is too expensive, I really don't know how to do it, in the final analysis, it's a lack of money! It's really hard for a penny to be a hero, and although I have high morale after I am reborn, the reality is still very helpless.
I got my clothes ready, thanked the tailor and went outside.
I passed by Zheng Sisi's house again and heard laughter inside, Liao Qiang and Zheng Sisi inside, and her parents were also there. I don't know what topic to talk about, but everyone is very happy and laughs together.
I thought of the time when they were the most harmonious in their previous life, Liao Qiang was going to go into the mountains to cut wood, and promised to give her most of the salary, at that time, when she went into the mountains, the money she earned in a day might be as much as half a month, of course they were very satisfied.
I wanted to take the clothes directly to Liao Qiang, but I really didn't want to talk to Zheng Sisi, so I thought about it and still didn't go in, just when I was about to leave. I suddenly saw something in the corner of the yard where the garbage was kept.
If you look closely, it turned out to be the dried sweet potatoes and balls I just brought to Zheng Sisi.
The fire in my heart rose, and I walked directly to the door of their house, and I wanted to turn around and leave, but I couldn't bear the shame, and walked over and quickly opened the door.
