Chapter 117

Lin Aihong regretted it as soon as she agreed, she was also forced by her parents just now, there was no way, but now that she calms down and thinks about it, it is really more difficult to borrow 400 yuan from her mother-in-law.

Lin Aihong began to be timid in her heart, and she couldn't help complaining about her parents, why did she make it so difficult?

But now that the words have been spoken, looking at the smiling parents, eldest brother and sister-in-law, and two nephews, Lin Haihong opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything remorseful after all.

Old Man Lin and Mrs. Lin were happy, and Old Man Lin said to the old woman, "Old woman, it's rare for my daughters to come here, and I want to cook a good meal for them." ”

Mrs. Lin nodded in agreement, and then looked embarrassed, "Old man, we don't have anything to eat at home!" ”

Old Man Lin looked at Feng Caixia, who was standing aside, smiling, "Eldest daughter-in-law, you go out and borrow a few eggs, and when we have them, we will return them to others." ”

If it was in the past, Feng Caixia would definitely be unwilling, but now Lin Haihong promised to lend them 400 yuan, this is a big favor, what are a few eggs?

Feng Caixia immediately answered in a loud voice, turned around and went out.

Although the reputation of the old Lin family is not very good in the village, Feng Caixia borrowed a few eggs with a shy face, and she could still borrow them, Feng Caixia really worked hard to please her sister-in-law this time, and gave up 10 eggs.

After coming back, Feng Caixia gave these eggs to Mrs. Lin, who personally cooked, gave her daughter, and granddaughter, and fried a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

In summer, there are many vegetables, except for this plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, everything else on the table is pickled capers, cold cucumbers, boiled green eggplants, and there is no oil and water.

Lao Lin's family has already left a single place, and still owes foreign debts, it would be good to have vegetables to eat, the taste is very light during this time, and when they saw scrambled eggs with tomatoes, Lao Lin's family almost drooled.

When Lin Changfu and Lin Changgui saw the scrambled eggs with tomatoes, they immediately picked up the chopsticks and were about to eat them, but Feng Caixia slapped them their hands with chopsticks, and their hands turned red.

Lin Changgui was suddenly unhappy, "Mom, what are you doing?" Why don't you let me eat it? ”

Feng Caixia glared at her son, "What to eat, just order such a dish, your younger brothers and sisters haven't eaten yet, they are young, let them eat first." ”

Lin Aiguo also said, "Yes, your sister-in-law's family is a guest, how can there be a guest who doesn't move his chopsticks, so you can eat?" Lin Aihong has been sitting there with her head down since she said the words of borrowing money, and there is an uneasy emotion all over her body, because Lin Aihong knows that if she tells her mother-in-law about this, her mother-in-law may kick her out of the house.

Lin Aihong knows better than anyone that her mother-in-law is stingy with money, and their family is not short of money, but Lin Aihong's mother-in-law is in charge of the house, and their family's life is simply poor on weekdays, and they rarely even eat a meal of white noodles.

After receiving the grain, her mother-in-law would immediately replace the good white flour with miscellaneous grains, so that she could eat a few more meals, and the two children would be able to eat something good when they were still young.

Sun Yangyang and Sun Xiaoyu saw the scrambled eggs with tomatoes on the table, and their eyes lit up, although on weekdays, they could occasionally eat some good ones, but they hadn't eaten eggs for more than a week.

Seeing the yellow, orange, and orange eggs, the two children almost drooled out, and the two children couldn't care much, picked up chopsticks, picked up a piece of egg and sent it to their mouths.

Mrs. Lin also steamed a pot of wotou, with a yellow wotou, eating scrambled eggs with tomatoes, these two children ate two wotou, and saw that the Lin family was envious, but it was not good to compete with the two children, so they could only buy one to eat the boiled vegetables next to it.

Lin Changfu and Lin Changgui looked at Sun Yangyang and Sun Xiaoyu with envy, a large plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes was not enough for the two children to eat.

They took the yellow nest and dipped it in the soup, dipped it little by little, and after eating the tomatoes and scrambled eggs until there was no soup left, the two children were satisfied.

Lin Aihong didn't eat much, but Mrs. Lin felt a little sorry for her daughter when she saw it, sighed, asked Feng Caixia to brush the pot and wash the dishes, and pulled her daughter to start talking, "Aihong, don't blame your parents, your parents can't help it, if it weren't for the trouble at home, your mother wouldn't make you so embarrassed." ”

"When your parents are old, you have to count on your eldest brother's family, if your two nephews can find a good job and earn a salary every month, your eldest brother's family will live well, and your mother will be able to subsidize you more in the future."

When Lin Aihong heard this, it was the same thing, she thought in her heart, if the eldest brother's family can live well in the future and have money, her mother will definitely be able to subsidize her more.

Thinking like this, Lin Haihong felt a little better, squeezed out a smile, and said to Mrs. Lin, "Mom, don't worry, I understand, when I get home, I will tell my mother-in-law." ”

Mrs. Lin nodded with satisfaction, and praised with a smile, "It's still my daughter who is sensible, and my mother didn't hurt you in vain." ”

As soon as they finished eating, Sun Yangyang and Sun Xiaoyu dragged Lin Aihong home.

Lin Aihong's mother-in-law, Cui Lanzhi, didn't say bad things about the Lao Lin family in front of these two children, the two children quarreled to go home, Lin Aihong had no choice, so she had to say hello to the people of the Lao Lin family and led the two children back.

In the past, every time Lin Aihong went back, she would carry something in her hand, either eggs or rice and white noodles.

This is unprecedented, the first time she went back to her mother-in-law's house, empty-handed, Lin Aihong was a little panicked in her heart, afraid that her mother-in-law would scold her when she returned home.

Sure enough, when Lin Aihong led the two children home, Lin Aihong's mother-in-law Cui Lanzhi immediately frowned when she saw Lin Aihong empty-handed.

"It's hard to go there, your mother really doesn't understand the rules, why didn't she let you bring something back?"

Lin Aihong was at a loss, and hurriedly explained, "Mom, you also know that my mother's house didn't catch fire a year ago, and the family has had a hard time these days......"

Without waiting for Lin Aihong to finish speaking, Cui Lanzhi waved her hand impatiently, "Okay, okay, I don't want to know about the in your family." Then he looked at the two children and smiled on his face, "As long as my granddaughter and grandson don't suffer." ”

Cui Lanzhi asked Sun Yangyang, "Good grandson, tell grandma, what did you eat at your grandma's house?" ”

Sun Yangyang pursed his lips, "There was nothing to eat, so I scrambled eggs with tomatoes." ”

When Cui Lanzhi heard this, she also grinned, and glanced at Lin Aihong, "Your mother's family called you back from afar, just for a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes?" ”

Lin Aihong's face was flushed, her head was lowered, and she stood there, not saying a word, honest, like a child who was reprimanded by a teacher for doing something wrong.

Before Lin Aihong went home, she was still thinking about how to tell Cui Lanzhi about borrowing money, but now seeing Cui Lanzhi sneering at herself, Lin Aihong didn't dare to say it.

Lin Haihong lowered his head and didn't dare to say, Sun Yangyang wouldn't.

Sun Yangyang looked at Cui Lanzhi and said loudly, "Grandma, grandma's family is bad, he called us back to borrow money from our family." ”

"What?" Cui Lanzhi's tone immediately increased eight times higher, "Borrow money from our family? ”

Cui Lanzhi looked at Xiao Sun Yang, "Good grandson, tell grandma, who wants to borrow money from our family?" ”

Sun Yang is 11 years old, and he understands everything adults say, so Sun Yangyang told Cui Lanzhi.

"Lin Changfu and Lin Changgui wanted to go through the back door to find a job, but their family had no money, so the master said to borrow 400 yuan from our family, and my mother agreed."

"Oh my God!" Cui Lanzhi exclaimed, clutching her chest, as if she was frightened, "400 yuan, this is to force me to death!" ”

"Our family has a hard enough time, we can't eat meat all year round, in order to let the two children eat and drink well, my old bones are often hungry, save the family, but I didn't expect a white-eyed wolf to come out of the family!"

Cui Lanzhi's eyebrows were upside down, and she looked at Lin Aihong, who was bowing her head and her face was full of anxiety, "Child, you are generous, you borrowed 400 yuan when you said to borrow?" ”

"Our family is not a landlord's old wealth, and the money that is saved and saved is also left for my grandson."

"Yangyang will go to school in the future, marry a wife and have children, which will cost money."

"My old woman, I'd rather lose myself than my grandson, but you're a mother..."

Cui Lanzhi pointed at Lin Aihong, trembling with anger, "You, who are your mother-in-law, actually lent me the money I left to my good grandson to marry a wife and have children in the future, you are trying to force me to death!" ”

Lin Aihong hurriedly explained, "Mom, Mom, you misunderstood, I didn't, you listen to my explanation..."

Cui Lanzhi slapped Lin Aihong in the face and scolded angrily, "Explanation? What do you explain? Let me ask you a question, have you agreed to borrow money? ”

Lin Aihong was forced to have no choice, so she had to nod, "I agreed to borrow money, but..."

The hot pain on her face made Lin Aihong's eyes roll with tears, but she still wanted to work hard to explain, but Cui Lanzhi didn't listen to her explanation at all.

Cui Lanzhi snorted coldly, "Lin Aihong, let me tell you, I won't borrow money, if you insist on borrowing money, then you will get out of here, a daughter-in-law like you, our Sun family can't afford it!" ”

Lin Aihong was scared when she heard this, and knelt down in front of Cui Lanzhi with a plop, crying and begging, "Mom, Mom, I didn't mean to, my parents are so old, kneel down for me and beg me, my parents have been good to me since I was a child, the old couple is so old, how can I bear to let them kneel to me?" ”

"And they are only borrowing, not asking, the money has to be repaid, as long as my two nephews can build a factory and have a salary every month, the money can be repaid soon."

"Nope." Cui Lanzhi rolled her eyes at Lin Aihong, "Your old Lin family is a good idea, and now you say that you will pay it back, if you don't pay it back in the future, won't the money be wasted?" ”

Lin Aihong hurriedly promised, "No, Mom, write an IOU when the time comes, if you don't pay it back, I'll ask for it." ”

Cui Lanzhi was still not happy, this money was only in her own hands, she was sure in her heart, and said that it was lent out, Cui Lanzhi felt that it was no different from asking for her own life.

Lin Aihong saw that Cui Lanzhi still didn't agree, and she sighed in her heart, feeling that she had done her best, and she was slapped by her mother-in-law in order to borrow money, which was worthy of her parents.

Unexpectedly, Cui Lanzhi reluctantly told Sun Liancheng about this matter, as well as her husband Sun Jianqiang.

Sun Jianqiang is more honest, but he is also a more stingy person, he promised to borrow money, Sun Jianqiang couldn't say anything, so he handed his son a look you look at

Sun Liancheng was suddenly furious, slapped the table, and glared at Lin Aihong, "Lin Aihong, you must know that the water spilled by the married daughter, from the day you got married, you are no longer from the old Lin family, you are now from our old Sun family." ”

"400 yuan, how long do we have to save without eating or drinking, so that we can save 400 yuan?"

"Our parents have always lived frugally, and the money left behind is not all for our children, it's good for you to be a mother, so much money, you will lend it out, don't you feel distressed?"

Lin Aihong said timidly, "I am Yangyang and Xiaoyu's own mother, how can I not feel distressed?" It's just that this is a loan after all, not a request, and it will be repaid in the future! ”

Sun Liancheng glared, "It's not okay to borrow." ”

Lin Aihong accepted the criticism of everyone in the family, even Sun Yangyang and Sun Xiaoyu were not on her side, looking at her grandfather, grandmother, and father triumphantly, criticizing Lin Aihong.

Lin Aihong did something wrong, Cui Lanzhi didn't even let Lin Aihong eat dinner.

Even when he was sleeping at night, Cui Lanzhi whispered a few words to Sun Liancheng's side, and Sun Liancheng also wanted to listen to Cui Lanzhi's words, so he nodded again and again.

Lin Aihong made up the bed, took care of a pair of children and fell asleep, and was about to go to bed, but was dragged up from the bed by Sun Liancheng, who stumbled and almost fell to the ground, and looked at Sun Liancheng in surprise, "What are you doing here?" ”

Sun Liancheng snorted coldly, "What am I doing?" You agreed to borrow 400 yuan without the consent of your family, and you did such a big wrong thing, don't you blush? You still have your face sleeping in the house, you get out of here! ”

Lin Aihong became anxious when she heard this, "What are you doing here?" You let me go out this big night, where do I sleep? ”

Sun Liancheng waved his hand indifferently, "I don't care where you sleep!" Get the hell out of here! ”

Lin Aihong stood there without moving, Sun Liancheng lazily chatted with Lin Aihong, grabbed Lin Aihong's arm, and threw her out of the door, Lin Aihong didn't wear shoes on her feet.

After Sun Liancheng got Lin Aihong out, he immediately locked the door and the family began to sleep.

Cui Lanzhi also praised Sun Liancheng triumphantly, "It's better for my son to be good to me, this kind of loser daughter-in-law can let her know the benefits, otherwise, our family will be ruined by her sooner or later." ”

Sun Liancheng immediately complimented, "Mom, you're right. ”

Sun Jianqiang didn't say a word, although he didn't say a word, but this tacit attitude already showed that he was very satisfied with Cui Lanzhi and Sun Liancheng's approach.

The family was happy and immediately began to sleep, but Lin Aihong stood outside the door, looking at a loss.

She looked at the closed door, tears falling down her eyes, and her feet hurt from the pebbles under her feet because she was not wearing shoes.

Because it was summer, the mosquitoes outside were very fierce, and after a while, there were several mosquitoes around him, buzzing and annoying, but now Lin Aihong can't care about so much.

Now at 9:00 p.m., there are still people around who are not sleeping, and the quarrel of the Sun family can't be hidden from people in this small place at all, and someone saw Sun Liancheng pushing Lin Aihong out of the door, so he stretched out his head to watch the excitement.

Lin Aihong was watched, and there were bursts of shame in her heart.

Lin Aihong wiped away her tears, endured the embarrassment, stepped forward to the door, and knocked lightly, "Liancheng, you open the door, where do you let me go on this big night?" ”

Sun Liancheng's impatient voice came out of the house, "Fall in love and go anywhere, get out!" ”

Lin Aihong's tone was crying, "Even the city, the neighbors haven't slept, you let me in quickly, otherwise others will see the joke." ”

Sun Liancheng didn't even say anything this time, Lin Aihong shouted twice, no one answered, and she herself felt embarrassed, so she lowered her head and sat on the steps at the door, letting the mosquitoes suck the blood on her body.

After an hour, everyone basically slept, leaving Lin Aihong alone outside the door, and Lin Aihong didn't know how long she had been crying.

In the dark night sky, you can see the stars shining overhead, and I don't know how long I watched it, Lin Aihong couldn't stay up, she fell asleep in a daze, and when she opened her eyes again, the sky was almost bright.

Lin Aihong was afraid that the neighbors would get up and come out and see that she had been sitting outside the door all night, and she would laugh at herself and look down on herself.

So, I raised my hand and wanted to knock on the door, but suddenly it occurred to me that the two children were still young, and I am afraid that they were still sleeping now.

Lin Aihong withdrew her hand and wanted to get out of the community and stay on the street for a while.

Seeing her bare feet, there were a lot of stones along the way, Lin Aihong gritted her teeth, endured the pain, and left the community barefoot, and went to a nearby street.

When there were more people on the street, Lin Aihong endured the pain and walked home.

When she walked into the community, many people in the community looked at her, with sympathy and schadenfreude.

Lin Aihong didn't look at the eyes of those people looking at her, so she lowered her head and walked home.

When someone greeted her on the way, Lin Aihong nodded perfunctorily twice, and didn't dare to reply.

I didn't care about the pain all the way, and Lian Hong's footsteps were fast and he walked home.

By the time I got home, I had several blood blisters on my feet

At this time, the door of the Sun family had been opened, Cui Lanzhi was cooking, and saw Lin Haihong coming back.

Cui Lanzhi glanced at Lin Aihong coldly, snorted coldly, and saw Lin Aihong standing there with her head down, she snorted coldly and scolded, "Where did you die?" ”

Lin Aihong didn't dare to refute, and said, "I was afraid that people would see our jokes, so I went to stay on the street outside the community for a while, and I didn't come back until everyone got up." ”

Cui Lanzhi snorted lightly and said to Lin Aihong, "Okay, what are you doing so much, hurry up and cook." ”

Lin Aihong couldn't delay, so she immediately went to cook honestly, and she didn't have Lin Aihong's share for breakfast.

After eating, Cui Lanzhi said to Lin Aihong with compassion: "In order to make you have a long memory, I will starve you for a day and eat again tomorrow."
