Chapter Ninety-Eight: Who's Better Than Whom
Meng Jinbao and Meng Jingui witnessed the fight between their grandmothers, shrunk in the corner and didn't dare to make a sound, only then did they stand up, Meng Jinbao said: "If the third baby leaves, our family will have one less person to work." Auntie, you can't talk nonsense, you should also persuade my dad not to agree. ”
Geng Guifen is the cousin sister of Meng Jinbao and Meng Jingui's biological mother, she got married for the first time and didn't know why she couldn't have children for a few years, so she was divorced, and later married Meng Laifu, but gave birth to three children, Meng Jinbao and Meng Jingui, including Meng Jinniu, are not called mothers, only called her aunts.
Meng Jingui followed his brother's words: "That's it, my aunt also knows that Cousin Caiyue is waiting to marry the third baby, if he leaves, how can my grandmother explain to the second uncle?" ”
Hearing this, Geng Liuju's face became even worse, she stroked her old waist and glanced at Geng Guifen:
"If you are so old, can't you grow a little heart? None as good as the kids! The three babies have grown up, all of them are capable, with him, there is too much loose work at home, and I just made up fifty yuan for him in medical expenses, why did he give him to the Meng family in Linshui Village as a grandson? Besides, the family affairs with Caiyue have also been discussed, who will marry Caiyue when he leaves? I'm an aunt and grandmother, I'm worried about Caiyue, why don't you have a heart and lungs when you're an aunt? ”
Geng Guifen hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, it's all my fault...... Dad is very scary today, I let Dad be scared and forget about Caiyue! ”
Geng Liuju thought that she was thrown to the edge of the kang by the old man just now, and threatened to send her back to Geng's house, and her eyes suddenly became fierce: "An old immortal!" I have worked hard all my life, giving birth to children for him, and making his children and grandchildren full, without my Geng Liuju to manage, just like his bear, can he keep this courtyard? Can the old Meng family have such a situation? Dare to treat me like this if you have no conscience? Wait and see, I, Geng Liuju, won't suffer this loss! Sanwa, he is my cat and dog, without me to speak, he can't go anywhere, he has to guard this home and always listen to me! ”
Geng Guifen nodded, paused and said, "Mother, could it be that Sanwa herself also wants to go to Linshui Village?" You see that the last time he came back, even if he was punished, he was very happy, and he always loved to guard the eight babies to read and write, and he looked fascinated. In the past, what did you say, the three babies didn't dare not listen, but he just refused to ...... Caiyue's matter What if he had to go to Linshui Village in order to escape from this family affair? ”
Geng Liuju glared: "He dares to escape?" How far can Linshui Village be, I have to tie it back, I promised to let him marry Caiyue! ”
"Mother, if you don't forget it, you won't force him to marry Caiyue, so that you can still keep him working in our house."
Meng Jinbao and Meng Jingui nodded together, in their opinion, keeping the three children to work at home is more important than marrying Geng Caiyue.
Geng Liuju snorted: "Don't worry, he can't leave, he has to do the work, and Caiyue will marry too!" ”
Geng Guifen thought of something, approached to pinch Geng Liuju's shoulder, and said: "Speaking of which, the girl of our Geng family is the most blessed, good to have and prosperous husbands and sons, just like my mother." Mother to marry the third baby Caiyue, but also for the third baby is good, the second brother and daughter-in-law also heard the second brother and daughter-in-law praise Caiyue can be born, envy the third baby will have more children and grandchildren in the future;
Mother has so many grandchildren, not only the three babies have not married, there are others, mother, you see King Kong, Jin Lin should also say kiss, but King Kong wants to enter the factory to work, you have to take it slowly, maybe you can marry a daughter-in-law in the city to receive a double salary in the future. Jin Lin, since you work at home, you should marry your daughter-in-law early, one is to honor you and your father, and the other is that there are multiple laborers in the family, so you can earn more work and more food. ”
Geng Liuju groaned and nodded slightly: "You reminded me." Jin Lin and Caiyue are not suitable, Caiyue is too big for him, I think your fourth brother's Cailing is very good, and she is also very blessed and capable, you go back and ask in a few days, just say to Jinlin! ”
"Hey!"
Geng Guifen agreed, pursed the corners of her mouth and snickered: Geng Cailing of the fourth brother's family, the name is very good, but the person is not good-looking at all, the girl's parents are thick and strong, with a pockmarked face, when she was a child, she was sick and took the wrong medicine, her brain is not very bright, she has a lot of strength, it is no problem to carry heavy burdens, she can't do fine work, her movements are still slow, she looks clumsy, and she will say that she is a rude man when she looks at her face.
If it is a girl from another family, she must not ask for it if she says it to Jin Lin, but her surname is Geng, and she is the niece and granddaughter of her mother-in-law Geng Liuju, and her mother-in-law wants to marry the daughter of the Geng family into the old Meng family, who dares not to agree?
Just now, the second brother Meng Laixi wanted to sell her son Meng Jingang's worker quota, and the second brother and daughter-in-law also took the lead in quarreling with her, naming her and saying how about the big house, is it easy to bully when she Geng Guifen?
Let them know that who will not make a bad eye? Who is more powerful than whom!
Meng Jinbao and Meng Jingui listened to the conversation between their grandmother and aunt beside them, and they both shrunk their necks, secretly glad that they had already married their daughters-in-law and started a family.
Before dinner, Meng Changshou and Meng Laifu came back, Geng Liuju heard Meng Laifu say that the old man really went to the team headquarters to inquire about Meng Jinniu's household registration, and made a big noise with Meng Changshou, Meng Changshou was noisy with her, took care of himself and smoked, asked his daughters-in-law to set the table to eat, and lay down to sleep after eating, not at all, so angry that Geng Liuju had liver pain.
Geng Guifen went to a small room in the east wing, which was originally lived by Geng Guifen's two daughters, Meng Manzhi and Meng Manxiang, but now it is given to Geng Caiyue for confinement, and Geng Liuju arranged it, even if he is not happy, can he not obey?
I had to grieve my daughter first and squeeze my parents for a while.
Although Geng Caiyue was locked in the house for confinement, she knew everything that had happened in the past two days.
As soon as Geng Guifen entered the house, Geng Caiyue was busy asking, "Auntie, my aunt and grandfather are back, what did he say?" Can the third baby be cured? ”
Geng Guifen looked at the kang bed, the three children were asleep, and the house was cleaned up quite neatly, she couldn't help but pouted secretly: the third baby was hospitalized, and the mother-in-law arranged for several granddaughters-in-law to take turns to take care of Geng Caiyue's mother and daughter, this Geng Caiyue is really a happy life, and she can still be taken care of by her aunt and grandmother like this, although she is her cousin and niece, she is still a little jealous in her heart.
Geng Guifen said: "Don't worry, the third baby can be cured." ”
Geng Caiyue breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, I'm afraid that he will be disabled, who will our mothers rely on when the time comes?" ”
Geng Guifen lowered her voice and said: "But your aunt and grandfather want to pass him on to the Meng family in Linshui Village, there is only one girl named Meng Taohua, who is a hard-fated disaster-breaking star, who killed her grandmother and son, and was divorced, she also wants her brother to be on the top of the door, so that she can marry in the future and not be bullied...... Yesterday, Meng Taohua from Linshui Village came to take Sanwa to the hospital, did you hear it? If the third child goes to Linshui Village and settles down and becomes the eldest son and grandson of that family, you are afraid that you will not be able to get married! ”
Geng Caiyue froze, and said a little anxiously: "This, what can I do here?" ”
"What can I do? Waiting for your aunt and grandpa to quarrel! It's yours if you quarrel, and there's no way if you can't argue. Who made Meng Taohua smart, she personally went to the county hospital to take care of the three children, waited for the injury to be cured, and took it back to Linshui Village directly. ”
"Aunt, there are so many people in our family, and we will also send one to take care of the three children?"
"It's easy for you to say, go up and down in the car, live there for ten days and a half and have to eat, don't you need money? If your aunt and grandmother had given up the money, they would have let Jinbao or Jingui go. also filled in fifty yuan for medical expenses, and now the whole family is quarreling over this, and I hate to have to ask the third baby to come back. ”
Geng Caiyue: "......"
She frowned and thought about it, and as if she had made up her mind, she said to Geng Guifen: "Aunt, the mother-in-law in front of me broke off with me and gave me 200 yuan, all of which were put in my mother's place." Wait until tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, my mother should come to see me, I asked her to give money, you let Jinbao or Jingui go to the county seat to take care of the three children, heal the injury and take it home quickly, I will wait for him! ”
Geng Guifen waved her hand: "The money is for you to leave your ex-husband's house, and your mother-in-law made up for you and your children, how can it ......be good?"
Geng Caiyue: "What is this money?" If there is no three babies, my child and I will be gone, then it will be difficult! ”
"No, no, your aunt should scold us if she finds out."
"I don't say it, if you don't say it, no one knows!"
"Cheng, then I'll help you arrange it."
"Well, tell Jin Gui to watch more closely then, don't let Meng Taohua abduct the third baby, that's my child's father!"
"Yes, yes!"
Meng Tao in the county town didn't know that she was now being treated as a human trafficker.
On the winter night in the small county town, it is cold and a little depressed, and under such an appearance, there is still a relatively lively black market, and Meng Tao has just come out of this black market.
She put on makeup, covered it tightly, walked down the street with a small bag, and when she saw that no one was following her, she went straight back to the hotel to rest.
In the hospital, Meng Jinniu she made proper arrangements, and asked Zhang Fu, the young man who came to take care of his father in the adjacent bed, to take care of him by the way, and the two talked about it privately, Meng Tao paid Zhang Fu eight cents a day, Zhang Fu was very real, saying that eight cents was almost his daily salary at work, and he didn't want more.
The location of the black market was also what he told Meng Tao.
There are a lot of things sold in the black market in the county, such as grain, game, dry goods, clothing, medicinal materials, and some old objects, which are old antiques.
Meng Tao didn't sell anything, after she shopped, she paid for two things: a pair of water blue ice pattern vases more than a foot high, very delicate and beautiful, the seller said it was from the Ming Dynasty, and I don't know if it was true or false, Meng Tao couldn't identify, it was all based on his eyes and like, and it was so cheap that it was distressing, as long as it was ten yuan, Meng Tao was embarrassed to bargain!
In addition, he traded with a middle-aged man who sold medicinal herbs, bought a freshly dug wild ginseng that was said to be fifty years old, the asking price was two hundred, the seller was seventy or eighty miles away from the mountains, the wild ginseng was dug by his father, his father recognized a lot of herbs, collected all year round, and usually sold to the public acquisition station, the unified purchase price was too low, not worth a few dollars, and the autumn and winter farmers were idle, so let the children and grandchildren try their luck in the black market in the city, and it would be good to make more money.
Meng Tao casually returned the price, one hundred and fifty, the middle-aged man sold the wild ginseng to her, if it was for the acquisition station, it would be good to get fifty yuan.
There was a bag of medicinal materials left, Panax notoginseng, Dendrobium officinale and Gastrodia, all of which were valuable medicinal materials, and Meng Tao also bought them easily, twenty yuan.
Collect them all and hand them over to Shen Yu at that time, wanting to see what price the medicinal materials that have been blessed by the space can be sold.
