8. Back to the door
At night, Su Man lay on the bed, looking at Xu Jie, who was playing with his mobile phone with his back to her, as well as the big red wedding flowers that had not been taken off on the top of his head, and the happy words posted in the house.
The whole day of her new daughter-in-law career made her feel that she had to talk to Xu Jie about something.
"Xu Jie, do you have any thoughts on everything today?" Suman asked.
Xu Jie was silent for a moment and said, "What's the matter?" ”
"Can't you see, can't you hear?" Suman knew he was playing dumb.
"What do you want to say?" Xu Jie said impatiently.
Su Man felt that Xu Jie's attitude made her feel like she couldn't vomit after eating.
She really isn't a person who likes to quarrel, in fact, more often than not, she always thinks differently when she talks and acts.
"I entered the door on the first day today, and your mother asked me to get up and cook at dawn in the morning, and we have a new daughter-in-law here who does not enter the kitchen for ten days."
"My family doesn't have the new daughter-in-law who doesn't enter the kitchen for ten days after entering the door, when my mother first became a daughter-in-law, my grandmother also called her to get up and cook on the first day, she naturally thinks it's normal to let her daughter-in-law cook!" Xu Jie said coldly.
"Then what do your aunts say, as your aunt, do you think it's appropriate to say that to your niece and daughter-in-law?"
"Why do you take what they say to heart, I can't see them a few times a year, is it possible that they are still following us, see if you have washed my clothes and cooked for me?"
Su Man was angry and didn't know what to say, she originally wanted to say that throughout the day, Xu Jie let his family besiege, admonish, and call her, and his attitude was the key to her feeling cold.
The person who lives with her is Xu Jie, not her mother-in-law, let alone those seven aunts and eight aunts, Xu Jie's attitude is the key.
However, Xu Jie didn't feel sorry for her at all.
Even if it's just to say: Wife, I know you have been wronged.
......
The next day was the day to return home.
The in-laws prepared gifts according to the rules for the little couple to take back to the Su family.
It was only more than a thousand meters from the Su family, and Su Man and Xu Jie were carrying things and preparing to walk over.
Xu Jie took the initiative to take two heavier gifts, and left two light ones for Su Man.
Su Man's originally gloomy mood suddenly improved a little, at least he remembered that she didn't have much strength to carry something too heavy.
Because the Xu family played mahjong too late the night before, they got up late the next morning, had breakfast at nine o'clock, packed up and came over with gifts, and when they returned to Su Man's house, it was already more than eleven o'clock, and Su Man's parents were busy in the kitchen.
Seeing the two, Su Man's parents greeted them warmly.
"Come, Xu Jie, sit." Su Man's father handed Xu Jie a cigarette.
Xu Jie sat down obediently and started chatting with Su Man's father.
"Your dad talked to me that day, you know?" Father Su said directly.
Xu Jie nodded, "I heard my dad say it." ”
"You and Manman are married now, have you thought about where to settle down?"
"I have discussed this with my dad, B city must be unrealistic, the housing prices over there are too expensive, my dad said that the money in his hand is even a problem with the down payment, I thought, otherwise find a first-tier city closer to home, so that it is convenient to come back for the holidays."
Su Man was confused when he listened, but he didn't ask, just listened quietly.
"Well, your idea is good, but there is a problem right now, and that is the problem of your work." Father Su glanced at Xu Jie.
Su Man suddenly felt a sense of foreboding in his heart, could it be ......
Xu Jie was silent and did not speak.
"Your major is relatively unpopular, Manman's second uncle's company is not quite right with you, Manman, she is a girl, she has always been an accountant, and it is easy to enter the company, and her current company is also owned by her second uncle's company, which is equivalent to internal transfer." Father Su took a puff of his cigarette and said.
"Well, my major is not very easy to arrange, in fact, my current job is very good, but my family is always uneasy, thinking that I am on the helicopter and cruise ship every day, afraid that I will have some accidents." Xu Jie also took a puff of cigarette, his expression a little irritated.
"What does Manman mean by her second uncle, that he can only arrange one person to go in, and your father came to me to arrange for you, but what I think about is that Manman is a girl, and I can rest assured that I have a stable iron job when I go in."
Su Man understood now, and the emotional Xu family wanted her family to help Xu Jie arrange work.
Xu Jie nodded and did not speak.
"The most important thing now is that the two of you hurry up to discuss which city to settle in, Manman and her second uncle said that it is either X City or L City, he recommends going to L City, the branch over there is relatively loose, so it is easy to arrange people."
Father Su said and said to Su Man: "You guys have a good discussion!" ”
Suman nodded.
"Xu Jie, eat here at noon, your mother and I will cook it for you." Father Su said, got up and went to the kitchen.
Su Man watched his father enter the kitchen, then turned his head to look at Xu Jie and said, "Why didn't I know about these things in advance?" ”
Xu Jie flicked the cigarette ash, took out his mobile phone, and said casually: "This is something that my father and your father want to discuss, so let's not get involved." ”
Su Man glared at Xu Jie, what did his father and her father want to discuss?
Su Man didn't want to quarrel with him, so he got up angrily and went to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Su Man approached his mother and asked secretly, "Mom, is my father proposing to arrange a job for Xu Jie?" ”
"What! No, your dad doesn't want to cause trouble for your second uncle, and he never said these things. Among the people who introduced you and Xu Jie at that time, there was an old Li who had known your father for many years, and knew what your second uncle did, and he told Xu Jie's father, and then Xu Jie's father proposed it and wanted your second uncle to arrange a job for Xu Jie. ”
"How embarrassed is his dad to mention it!"
"His father said that he originally found an acquaintance, saying that he could arrange Xu Jie to go to some state-owned enterprise in Q City, but it would cost three or four hundred thousand, and now there is just such a good opportunity, you and Xu Jie are married, Xu Jie is mixed, isn't your life comfortable."
Su Man frowned, she didn't agree with her mother's words at all, if Xu Jie loved her, maybe she would be better, but she didn't think Xu Jie would be so good to her, maybe people would be good, and the first one would think of a way to kick her.
People crossing the river and demolishing bridges abound.
"Alas, your father is also annoyed by this, although your second uncle is the number one, but such a big company, the relationship is complicated, and it is not that he can casually insert an airborne soldier into it with a word, how much he owes favors, and the debt is the most difficult to repay! However, you said that you are married to Xu Jie now, if you refuse Xu Jie's father's request, your father is worried that their family will embarrass you, although your father has a bad temper, but he is your own father after all, and he still loves you the most in his heart! You are usually less angry with him, and the last time you quarreled, you made your father's heart hurt for several days. ”
"Oh, I see." Su Man was heartwarming for a while, she actually understood her father's love for her, but her father's thinking was more feudal, and he was a little out of place with her, and quarrels were commonplace.
Secretly looking at her father's temples that were already gray, Su Man's eyes suddenly turned red, in the future, she must be a little sensible and less angry with her father.
