Chapter 18: Returning Home

Jiang Cheng'er pretended to be frightened and sat down on the ground, avoiding the old witch's claws.

"Grandma, the granddaughter is wrong, the granddaughter shouldn't tell our family's secrets, you can forgive the granddaughter. Grandma ......"

Jiang Cheng'er cried and pleaded, her weak and helpless appearance was in stark contrast to the vicious and vicious Mrs. Jiang.

The villagers naturally believed in the honest Jiang Cheng'er, and Mrs. Jiang couldn't tell 10,000 mouths.

The villagers scolded Mrs. Jiang more fiercely than before, scolding her was not only shameless, but also femme fatale, more disgusting than the widow.

Mrs. Jiang hoarsely voiced, unable to argue, and the overwhelming ridicule was like countless whips whipped on her.

Especially Zhao Sanpo, who scolded her for not waiting to catch her breath, the firepower was very fierce.

Mrs. Jiang couldn't resist it, she hugged her buzzing head in pain, rolled her eyes, and completely fainted.

The old thing who doesn't abide by women's morals, she deserves to be scolded to death, she is already cheap if she is not immersed in the pig cage!

The villagers shouted and dispersed.

Jiang Cheng'er turned around with a sneer, pulled her frightened mother, and went back to her room.

Jiang Sanniang glanced at Mrs. Jiang who was lying on the ground with disdain, and found an excuse to leave.

Mrs. Jiang also looked down on her embarrassed mother-in-law, but she just cared about the past and didn't leave her mother-in-law alone, she called her husband and brother-in-law to come out to help.

The two shrunken turtles came out slowly, lifted their mother on the kang angrily, and lay side by side with their paralyzed father.

Mrs. Jiang wiped her mother-in-law's face with cold water, pinched her again, and tossed for a long time, and Mrs. Jiang finally woke up.

She opened her eyes and felt a vicious gaze in the stab staring at her, and she turned her head to see that it was her husband's gaze, and she shuddered with fright.

Father Jiang was paralyzed by a stroke, his brain was still conscious, and he heard all the noise outside.

The old woman did such ugly things behind his back, and he was so angry that he hated that he couldn't move, otherwise he would have picked up his crutches and knocked this shameless slut to death.

The corners of Daddy Jiang's crooked mouth trembled, and he used all his strength to spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm onto Mrs. Jiang's face.

Mrs. Jiang was so disgusted that she retched for a while, her voice was hoarse, and the more anxious she was, the more speechless she became, and in the face of her husband's blame, her stomach full of grievances turned into a cry.

Looking at her son's daughter-in-law's disgusted attitude towards her, she was even more aggrieved and panicked, and no one believed her! Outsiders don't believe it, and neither do their own families.

She couldn't argue, she lived most of her life, and in the end, she was poked and scolded in the back, and she couldn't go out to meet people in the future.

The more Mrs. Jiang thought about it, the more depressed she became, she felt like her chest was about to explode, and she didn't take a breath, and fainted again.

Jiang Cheng'er was in the room, carefully sewing and mending the torn coat from last night, trying to restore it to its original state.

But no matter how good her needlework is, the repaired clothes will leave traces, I hope the dumb beautiful man doesn't mind.

Jiang Cheng'er put the sewn coat into the wooden basin, took the remaining pieces of cut soap, and walked towards the river.

She wants to go to the actual inspection, listen to the evaluation of the first batch of customers on the use of soap, get recognition, and do a good job of paving, so that the second batch of soap can be sold more smoothly.

Today, there are a lot of people washing clothes by the river, and they gather in groups.

Jiang Cheng'er took a closer look, and the women in the middle were her first customers yesterday, and they were showing off to others the soap they bought, how clean the laundry was, and how good it smelled.

With a look of curiosity and envy on their faces when they saw something new, they asked where they bought the soap.

Listening to the first batch of customers spontaneously doing good publicity for her, Jiang Chenger was very pleased.

Of course, there are also people who have a sour grape mentality, saying "What is it, I'm not rare".

Seeing Jiang Cheng'er, those who planned to buy soap immediately gathered around, asked about the price, inquired about the situation, some hesitated, and some immediately wanted to buy it.

Jiang Cheng'er said that this batch of soap can only be formed in the afternoon, about thirty pieces, which is not much, and she wants to buy it as soon as possible.

Most people's psychology is to buy something as soon as possible, women like to compare, within their own ability, others have what they want to have.

Everyone washed their clothes by the river, and others washed them with soap to make them white and fragrant. I was so tired from knocking on a big mallet for a long time that my arms were sore, and the dust on my clothes couldn't be knocked off, how embarrassing.

Hearing that there were not many of them, they hurriedly stepped forward and said to Jiang Cheng'er that they must keep a piece for themselves.

Counting the sour grapes just now, she also said that it was not rare, duplicity.

Jiang Cheng'er replied, she couldn't remember that there were many people, and she didn't leave anyone to offend anyone. Support booking, pay a deposit of one penny first, and then pay the remaining four wen when you buy it in the afternoon.

Women used to pay for things with one hand and take the goods with the other, and for the first time they heard the word "deposit".

They thought about it for a while, anyway, it cost five cents, and it was the same to pay it in two installments, and Jiang Cheng'er couldn't run, so they all agreed.

Jiang Cheng'er needs to find a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone to write down the list of scheduled customers. There is a private school nearby, and Jiang Cheng'er used to borrow these writing instruments from others.

Mr. Private School was an old man with gray hair, Jiang Cheng'er explained her intention, and the old gentleman squinted at her in surprise.

Jiang Cheng'er smiled: "Sir, I will write a list and ensure that it will be returned in time in the afternoon after I run out of pen and ink." ”

"Little girl, can you write?" The old gentleman sat up straight and asked slowly.

Jiang Cheng'er then remembered that the original owner was illiterate. Most of the men in the village are illiterate, let alone women, and none of them have ever read a book, including Sun Tingting, the daughter of the village leader.

The words were all spoken, and Jiang Cheng'er couldn't take them back, so she just said: "I know a few of them, they were written by others, and I learned them from the side." ”

The old gentleman didn't believe it, so he was willing to borrow something only if he asked Jiang Cheng'er to write a few words.

Anyway, Jiang Cheng'er also took a calligraphy class for five or six years in her previous life, and she practiced both hard and soft pens, so she was in a hurry to go out and quickly wrote her name.

The old gentleman stood up and carefully looked at the two big characters "Jiang Cheng'er" on the paper, which were beautiful and sparse, and full of muscles and bones.

He couldn't believe that such a beautiful word came from the hand of a little girl.

"Wonderful! Wonderful! The old gentleman was quite excited, and asked Jiang Cheng'er to write a few more.

Jiang Cheng'er frowned: "Sir, you want me to write an IOU, right?" ”

"No, no! Girl, you misunderstood, I appreciate the girl's font, although you take the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, you don't have to return it, I give it to you. ”

"Thank you, sir!"

Jiang Cheng'er picked up her things and walked out quickly, she couldn't ask for other people's things for nothing. Take the time to send a few pennies, which is considered to be a good purchase for him.

The old gentleman held up Jiang Cheng'er's handwriting and showed it to the three or five children in the hall, so that they could follow along, and the key was to learn her self-motivated spirit.

These children really received some encouragement, other girls did not go to school to write a good hand, they spent money in the school, how could they waste time.

Jiang Cheng'er returned to the river and wrote down the names of the people who had paid the deposit.

The word spread quickly among the people in the village, and before lunch, all thirty pieces of soap were booked.

Jiang Cheng'er took the thirty yuan and went home.

As soon as Jiang Cheng'er entered the courtyard, her good mood was ruined.

"Dani, where did you die?" When Jiang Manman saw Jiang Cheng'er, he immediately screamed.

"This sentence should be asked to you, I haven't seen you in the past two days, and I guess you didn't come back last night. If a girl's family doesn't come home at night, what good can she do outside? Jiang Cheng'er sneered.

"Hehe, I didn't come back last night, I stayed at my cousin's house, we ...... last night" Jiang Manman proudly showed off, and also made a trick, causing others to reverie.

Jiang Cheng'er was shocked, don't, Lu Cheng must not have anything to do with Jiang Manman!

Seeing Jiang Cheng'er's instantly pale face, Jiang Manman was even more proud, thinking that he had stinged Jiang Cheng'er.

I didn't distinguish between the truth and the falsehood, and I didn't listen to her nonsense. Jiang Cheng'er ignored her anymore, found a sunny place, and dried the laundry.

Jiang Manman saw a man's clothes inside at a glance, and immediately exclaimed.

"Heh, I haven't seen you for two days, which wild man did you bring home? The clothes are washed for others, and they dare to sleep on a kang. ”

She deliberately raised her voice so that everyone in the room could hear her.

The door of the east house opened first, and a middle-aged woman with a slightly chubby body walked out, with a bit of Mrs. Jiang's appearance between her eyebrows and eyes, she was Mrs. Jiang's eldest daughter Lu Jiang, Lu Cheng's mother.

Lu Jiang looked at Jiang Cheng'er, with a layer of frost in his eyes, completely lacking his former enthusiasm.

Jiang Cheng'er just called her "aunt" out of courtesy.

The aunt came out, and Jiang Manman was even more energetic and walked to the clothesline.

Her mouth snorted: "Look! See! The style and material of this dress are good, it turns out that Dani fell in love with a rich man, no wonder she dumped Cousin Cheng. ”

"Ahem...... "Ahem" Mrs. Jiang heard the words "I fell in love with a rich man" in the house, and she reflexively palpitated and coughed violently.

Mrs. Jiang was waiting by her side, and in front of her sister-in-law, she was very attentive as a sister-in-law, and hurriedly brought a bowl of water to her mother-in-law to drink.

Mrs. Jiang barely suppressed her cough and panted.

"Sister Man, excessive crankiness is a kind of mental illness, and you have to take medicine. This man's dress is not happy, I borrowed it, I picked it up. ”

Jiang Cheng'er's voice was cold, and she replied to Jiang Manman without hurry, "As for Cousin Cheng, I have always regarded him as an elder brother, unlike some people who have bad thoughts about him. ”

Lu Cheng's mother is here, and Jiang Cheng'er made her feelings for Lu Cheng clear by the way, cleared up the misunderstanding, and avoided trouble.

"We have no shortage of daughters-in-law, so I'm afraid you won't be able to get married."

Lu Jiangshi snorted coldly, Danite didn't know herself, just because she didn't look down on Cheng'er, she still disliked her.

I used to think that Dani was honest and obedient, Cheng'er liked her, and she was also interested in fulfilling it.
