Chapter 135: Look in the Mirror
Feng Guichun is a woman who lives a life, and she feels sorry for men and children. If it was Niu Xiulan, she would definitely eat it by herself, and then let her take some more.
"Absolutely." She didn't say you should eat this piece, I'll pretend it for you when I leave.
After all, these are her mother's family, and she can take a piece of entertainment, but it is not appropriate to take it away to give favors.
Her sister-in-law is about to enter the door, and she must pay attention in the future, otherwise she will get used to it, and it will be bad if her sister-in-law does not want to have conflicts in the future.
Feng Guichun said with a faceless face: "Sister-in-law, I don't know how to tell you......"
Lin Xiaoman said with a smile: "It's okay, if you have anything to say, you can just say it, it's all a family, there's nothing bad to say." ”
The more generous she behaved like this, the more embarrassed Feng Guichun became, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "This is an honest person." ”
Seeing her embarrassed face, she didn't say 123 for a long time, so she had to take the initiative to ask: "You want to say, can't you continue to help me do handicrafts?" Or do you want me to give you a little more pay? ”
Everyone was tired of beating around the bush, but her straightforwardness still made Feng Guichun very embarrassed. In addition to being embarrassed, he was surprised, "Sister-in-law, how do you know?" ”
Lin Xiaoman smiled: "Guess." ”
Of course Feng Guichun didn't believe it, but he couldn't ask about it, he thought about going home and asking Jianhua if he had leaked his mouth outside to let others know.
However, when it came to this, she had no choice but to say, "Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry." My family Jianhua said that let me do it and sell it in the city by myself, so that I can earn more. Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I know this shouldn't be, but the family needs money, I, I, I," she said three words of me, which showed that she felt embarrassed in her heart, "Let's just let the two of us live with my sister-in-law." ”
She stood up, didn't even take the piece of snack, and was about to walk out with a flushed face.
Lin Xiaoman hurriedly grabbed her, "Look at you, I haven't said anything yet, but you have thrown my face on me." ”
"No, how can I ......" Feng Guichun eagerly explained, only to notice the smile on her face, she couldn't help but be stunned, "Sister-in-law, you, you're not angry with me?" ”
"Why aren't you angry? If you want to have this mind, just say it, and see you make it like this, as if I am difficult for you. Lin Xiaoman complained half-truthfully, "You said you won't do it for me, where can I find such a clever person?" ”
Feng Guichun's face turned even redder, "Otherwise, I'll do it for my sister-in-law." ”
Lin Xiaoman smiled: "That's not good, you do it for you, I can't give you such a high salary." ”
Feng Guichun heard her ridicule, and breathed a sigh of relief, since Jianhua went to send her sister-in-law back, she has been talking about it, she feels that if her sister-in-law gives her this job, she can earn dozens of dollars a month, let alone know that this money can still earn like this.
There is always something in my heart that can't get over this hurdle, and it has been delayed until now. Jianhua said that the second brother became the factory director. Earn a lot more than before, she made up her mind, but this is always difficult to say, she wanted to open her mouth several times but didn't say it, until today Jianhua said that she was going to go again, he was going to come to find his sister-in-law, he was afraid that Jianhua would not speak well, and the contradiction with his sister-in-law would increase, so he hurriedly inquired about her at her mother's house today and rushed over.
"Sister-in-law, you're such a good person." Feng Guichun said with some shame: "We are tantamount to stealing business with you, and you are not angry with me, I really don't know what to say." ”
If it was a native of this era, he would definitely be angry, but Lin Xiaoman has seen a lot, and she doesn't plan to do this all the time, of course she won't care. "If you don't do it, others will do it, and it's a good thing that you can have the flexibility to think about earning this money yourself."
Feng Guichun left with a full of gratitude, and Mother Lin was a little upset for her, "You are concubines." It's not righteous for the two of them to do this. ”
She really didn't pay attention to it, so she said casually: "That's good, at least she told me, and she knew that she was embarrassed, if you change someone and watch this business make money, who will ask you." ”
Mother Lin thought about it, and put her heart into her heart, "You just came back, your father won't let me talk to you, let's make this snack, there are several red-eyed ones in the village, Fang Yuling's family is one, and your second aunt, I have come to see it several times, and I secretly asked people what to do, alas, they are all relatives, or villagers, this is not a whole." really let them all learn, and our family's business is also mysterious. ”
"The market is so big, we can't monopolize it all, and there are many things to do."
Mother Lin said that the reason why she is optimistic about this daughter-in-law is because she has relatives, and she may arrange for Dakui to work in the factory, and when the time comes, she will become a glorious worker, and it is a pity not to make this snack.
Or when a worker has face and earns money, he is also sure.
Lin Xiaoman doesn't know what she thinks, and if she does, she can't persuade her, does she want to say that in the next two or three years, many enterprises in such places will close down one after another?
People can't say she's crazy.
She didn't forget, Fang Yuling wanted to install a "ghost body" for her before.
The next day, Da Kui finally confessed his relatives.
Only then did Lin Xiaoman know that he was going to the woman's house to recognize his relatives.
She was a little sneering, "I thought it was a cake that I bought specially from our house," and her own dim sum is exactly four things, and it is delicious and beautiful. "You didn't say it before." I was a little worried, "Shall I go along?" ”
"That's not good, the more people in the family go to show that our family values her. If it weren't for the fact that I didn't like your second aunt, I would have called them. Let's go as a family of four, how neat and tidy it is, you can just save face for your brother. ”
Mother Lin neatly wrapped the money into a piece of red paper, "People are optimistic about our family, otherwise, they can't ask for this bride price." ”
At the beginning, she agreed to the woman, because she owed money for marriage and asked them to pay it back by themselves, and she was still worried enough in private. But I didn't expect that the business was so good in the past few months and she had made so much money, and the girl had taken a lot of money, so she didn't have to fight the famine now, she was happy all night.
"In the future, when the new daughter-in-law enters the door, I will also enjoy the blessings of my daughter-in-law and be an old woman."
Lin Xiaoman said: "Mom, don't worry about the two of them in the future, think about what my grandmother did to you in the first place?" You can't afford to make my grandmother's old mistakes. ”
Mother Lin said angrily: "That's not good, your grandmother is not your father's stepmother, I am my own mother." ”
Lin Xiaoman slandered in his heart, if he met his own mother who had a lot of trouble, it would be much more destructive than that stepmother. You must know that the stepmother and the son are not close, but this mother, the son is biased towards his mother, and this contradiction will increase.
The woman's family lives in a neighboring village, Lin Xiaoman looked at this broken grass house, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching, this family looked poorer than the Lin family when she was just reborn, no wonder the bride price was so much.
However, since their family has such capable relatives, why didn't they help?
She asked this question, and Mother Lin whispered, "Whether to help the emergency or not to help the poor, this is all counted." After she finished speaking, she admonished a son and a daughter: "When you enter the house for a while, you are not allowed to talk nonsense, do you hear?" ”
The two hurriedly agreed, and as soon as they entered the courtyard, a large group of people suddenly came out of the house. Listening to this introduction, what are the seven aunts and eight aunts, it seems that there are really a lot of relatives.
The matchmaker is Aunt Huang, she came mainly to say that she was compatible, and whoever on both sides had any requirements and conditions could tell the matchmaker, and then the matchmaker would tell the other party, so as not to look bad on the above.
I don't know what to say about the bride price, anyway, Mother Lin is three hundred yuan, but I didn't expect that the woman's family suddenly asked for a bicycle, and the reason was thought of, "I said it was for my girl, but it wasn't for the two of them. ”
A bicycle, with the current conditions of the Lin family, must not be able to afford it, but Mother Lin has the confidence to speak, she can't afford it now, and she can buy it in half a year, so as soon as she said it politely, the other party was stunned.
The woman's family didn't expect that the Lin family's words would be so open.
The people agreed, but they had to wait for half a year, they were originally talking about the couple, so naturally they couldn't disagree, and the family affair was concluded.
After reading the yellow calendar, I chose a summer vacation day in school. I've been working in the field for a while, and I have some free time. Of course, the countryside prefers to hold happy events in winter, firstly, when the farmer has time, and secondly, he is busy for a year and earns money in the autumn to marry a daughter-in-law.
But Dakui couldn't wait, because the day was set for summer.
At this time, the woman's relatives muttered, "Don't they all say that the Lin family is poor?" How can you buy a car in such two months? This is poor, I knew that they would have asked for more dowries. ”
Lin Xiaoman's sister-in-law, who has not passed through the door, looks average, has small eyes, and is not tall, but fortunately, her body is strong and slender, and the fly in the ointment is that she is still a little dark.
She lowered her head in shame and said nothing, but it was her mother, who sighed and said: "That's a lot, the Lin family is also a living family, it's really too much, and people can't do it." ”
Not to mention the gossip of the woman's family, on the way back, Lin Xiaoman carefully observed Da Kui's expression, and saw that he did not have any unwilling expressions, so he put his mind at ease.
When he returned home, he deliberately pulled him in front of the mirror for him to look at.
Da Kui was confused, "What do you mean?" Got something on my face? ”
Lin Xiaoman pointed to the big kui in the mirror and said very seriously: "Look carefully, you look like this, you are not outstanding, not beautiful, not tall, and not white......"
Every time she said a word, Da Kui's face darkened, and when she said it, her face turned dark, "It's not Xiaoman, if you don't bury your brother, you'll be uncomfortable, right?" ”
He shouted "Dad, Mom," and complained: "You guys are too partial, why did you give birth to Xiao Man so beautiful and white, and make me so ugly and so dark?" Also, why is Xiao Man so tall, why am I so short? ”
Father Lin and Mother Lin couldn't cry or laugh, patted Lin Xiaoman and scolded with a smile: "Don't tease your brother." ”
Lin Xiaoman said seriously: "I'm not teasing him, I'm trying to make him recognize himself, only in this way will he not pick on my future sister-in-law, dislike her for not being as good-looking as Fang Yuling." ”
She is also taking precautions, she is simply heartbroken for Dakui, alas, she is not a sister at all, she was born to be a sister.
