Chapter Ninety-Four: A Night's Sleep
Li Chunxiang: Wang Jian's mother, Li Ming's sister, a woman in her forties.
Unlike Li Ming's pampered temperament because he has never done rough work, Li Chunxiang has become very rough when he is middle-aged.
Not only does she have to do housework to serve the family, but she also has to do all kinds of menial jobs that can make money, in order to accumulate money for her two sons.
The eldest son was quite competitive, studied at the teacher's college, and after graduation, he taught in the town's middle school.
It's just that the daughter-in-law hasn't married yet.
Li Chunxiang's ideal daughter-in-law candidate is a female teacher, if her son can also marry a female teacher, the husband and wife will receive two salaries and work diligently, and their lives will be stable.
But this is not an easy task.
The female teachers are all from good families and want to marry a golden beetle son-in-law who is the right person.
After all, in the 90s, it was hard to provide for girls to finish junior high school, and the whole town couldn't find anyone who could finish high school and teachers' college.
Therefore, the female teachers of the Nth middle school are all from the county seat.
People in the city inevitably have a sense of superiority and wear colored glasses when they look at people in small towns.
Therefore, Li Chunxiang also faced the reality after daydreaming, a daughter-in-law who has no job, as long as she is willing to give a lot of dowries.
However, not everyone in wealthy families is willing to marry their daughters to poor families like them, and they want to get a lot of dowries, unless they let their sons marry the kind of girls who go to Guangdong to make money.
Those girls have completed the accumulation of wealth in the Fengyue place, and after leading their mother's family out of poverty and becoming rich, they can also leave some savings for use as money around them when they get married.
For the sake of money, Li Chunxiang finally endured this disgusting feeling.
However, if you want to get a large amount of money from the other party, you have to give the other party a dowry and marry someone back.
Dowry, dowry, such a large dowry, how can Li Chunxiang be rich?
can only turn to his younger brother Li Ming for help.
Li Chunxiang had already made plans in her heart, and went to her younger brother Li Ming the next day to borrow money from him.
The younger brother is already very brave and has taken on the future of his youngest son Wang Jian.
Li Chunxiang was grateful to Li Ming in her heart, and she would not talk to Li Ming unless she had to, but her eldest son Wang Shu already had such an object, and she, as a mother, couldn't help but jump out of Zhang Luo.
Li Chunxiang didn't expect that before she went to find Li Ming, Li Ming came to the door.
It was already late, Li Chunxiang looked at his younger brother Li Ming, who was wearing stars and moons outside the door, and was surprised: "Ming, why did you come here so late?" Isn't it Wang Jian, he ......?"
"Wang Jian is fine, he is very peaceful." Li Ming said, and went straight to the door.
It can be seen that the younger brother's face is not good-looking.
"Ming, you're in a bad mood, aren't you? What's going on? Yes and Boya......"
Li Ming interrupted Li Chunxiang irritably: "Sister, I just want to spend the night at your house tonight, and for the rest, can you not get to the bottom of it?" ”
Li Chunxiang had no choice but to shut up, and after thinking about it, she couldn't help but speak: "Ming, are you hungry, my sister will give you a note." ”
"I'm not hungry, I just want to sleep now, sister, you make a bed for me."
"The bed doesn't need to be made, it's ready-made, you can sleep in your nephew's room."
Li Ming frowned: "Then where does Wang Shu sleep?" I'm not used to sleeping in the same bed with a big guy. ”
Li Chunxiang laughed, his younger brother is forty years old, why is he still so childish?
"Wang Shu was not at home, he went to sleep at his girlfriend's house." Li Chunxiang said happily.
Li Ming was surprised: "Wang Shu has a girlfriend, when did it happen?" ”
"I haven't had time to tell you yet, I was going to go to your house tomorrow to look for you, but who knew that you would come over at night, and it was a coincidence."
Li Ming sighed: "Even if you have a girlfriend, you haven't gotten married yet, what's the matter if you sleep together?" I'm not afraid of gossip from the townspeople. ”
In the 90s, the people of the town were not yet civilized, and premarital cohabitation and sex~ behavior would be drowned by people's spit.
Li Chunxiang didn't care: "What are you afraid of, we are sons, and we don't suffer." ”
"I have to think about it for other women...... "Li Ming is an upright person."
Li Chunxiang's expression froze.
What other reputation does that girl have? That's what she earns.
But Li Chunxiang couldn't be sarcastic at the moment.
Because that girl is about to become her daughter-in-law, marrying a daughter-in-law who has mixed up in the Fengyue place, and in the end it is her Wang family who has no face.
However, it's all because I don't have the money to marry a good daughter-in-law.
It's better to marry a good daughter-in-law than to marry a daughter-in-law and beat a bachelor.
Li Chunxiang is glad that her thinking is not pedantic.
She is a pragmatic and open-minded mother, and her reputation is important, but she can't be eaten.
followed Li Chunxiang to Wang Shu's room, and Li Ming sat on Wang Shu's bed.
The plank bed is very hard, and it can't compare to the beautiful dreams of home.
In the past six months, the pharmacy business has been so good that it is dying, and the quality of life of his whole family is also thriving.
After all, he was a quack doctor who would kill people if he wasn't careful.
Without Zhao Huanhuan's help, let alone fame and fortune, he is likely to be imprisoned again, unless he no longer practices medicine and opens a pharmacy.
This made Li Ming's heart stop.
Seeing Li Ming's unpredictable complexion, Li Chunxiang couldn't help but ask again: "Ming, what the hell are you doing, can't you tell me yet?" I'm your own sister. ”
Both of them are middle-aged, their parents have long since passed away, and the siblings are the closest people to each other in this world.
In his early years, Li Chunxiang was widowed and regarded his younger brother Li Ming as a backer.
Li Ming glanced at Li Chunxiang, my sister is an ignorant woman, what's the use of talking to my sister? My sister will only persuade him not to divorce, and the family and everything will be prosperous.
Li Ming was embarrassed and refused to speak, but Li Chunxiang had already guessed: "Ming, do you say you are worried about money, or because you quarreled with Bai Ya?" ”
Li Ming smiled dumbly, it was not that his sister Bingxue was smart, but that he was middle-aged, and there were just two bad things: career and marriage.
A career represents money, and the two are the same thing.
The standard for measuring a person's success in this world is to see if you will make money, whether you will make money, no matter how good the relationship between husband and wife is, it is nothing in the eyes of others.
What's more, poor couples mourn everything.
"Sister, if I don't divorce Bai Ya, I will be poor and my life will become a mess, if I divorce Bai Ya, I will be able to make a lot of money and live a good life, you choose for me, which one will you choose?"
Li Ming finally opened his mouth to ask his sister.
He wondered what someone else would choose.
Li Chunxiang said without thinking: "Divorce, if you have money, are you afraid that you won't be able to marry a wife?" There are a lot of wives, as long as you have money, and my brother is talented, maybe he can marry a young and beautiful girl, a hundred times stronger than Bai Ya, and give you a big fat son, Bai Ya has given birth to a daughter for so many years, and the incense of our Li family is going to be broken. ”
I didn't expect my sister's idea to be so simple and rude.
Li Ming felt a lot more comfortable, and he thought that his sister would scold him for being unkind and unjust.
Li Ming felt comfortable, and it was his turn to ask Li Chunxiang: "Sister, you said at first that you were going to find me tomorrow, what is the matter?" ”
He didn't believe that his sister came to the door just to report to him the good news that his nephew had a girlfriend.
