It is said that her daughter is like her mother, which is really true, this Zhang Xiaoqin has completely inherited Wu Ju's love for calculations and the character of small-bellied chicken intestines, and it is better than the blue.

"Hey, hey! Or is it thoughtful. If it weren't for you, you aunt and I would really be led away by the broom star. Wu Ju was convinced by Zhang Xiaoqin's words.

"Auntie, don't worry! With me, I won't see you sinned. Later! You have to learn to be smart, don't be sloppy at every turn, you have to be nice to her on the surface, this free labor is not in vain, and let her be willing to be good to you. If there's anything you can't do, just look for me, I'll pretend to be this wicked person, and you pretend to be a good person. Zhang Xiaoqin was full of confidence, patted her chest and assured Wu Ju, and gave Wu Ju ideas.

Wu Ju listened to Zhang Xiaoqin's words, it was a comfort! sighed in my heart, they all said that my daughter was my mother's intimate little padded jacket, there was really nothing wrong with this, and this girl was really not raised in vain.

"Okay, girl, you are a great hero today, A-Niang will go and make you back to the pot meat." Wu Ju jumped out of bed excitedly, put on her shoes and prepared to go to the kitchen.

"By the way, A-Niang, hide all the food and try to complain in front of her, so that she can desperately make money to support you."

Wu Ju responded, and when he left the room, he hurriedly received the rice and noodles and everything in his room to hide them well, and then went to the kitchen to return to the pot of meat.

In the guest room, Shumei is cleaning up.

It is said to be a guest room, but it is actually a utility room, a wooden shelf bed on top, the dust is thick, and the spiders have already made their home on it. There were baskets, hoes, and buckets of urine piled up all around. The whole house was filled with a musty smell, anyway, it didn't look like a place where people lived, so it was no wonder that Zhang Xiaoqin had to occupy Shumei's room.

"Is this a place where people live? I said Sister Shumei! Why are you just holding back your anger? Xiong Qianqian stood behind the door with the child in her arms, looked at Shumei who was scrubbing with a towel, and complained indignantly.

"Qianqian! This life is not to go to the battlefield, if you have to fight to win or lose, then you can't live that day, you have to spare people and spare people, take a step back and open the sky. Think about it! I don't think that's anything compared to the days we were sold. ”

Shumei was busy with the things in hand, and said meaningfully to Xiong Qianqian. Speaking of which, the bits and pieces after being sold come to mind again, just like what happened yesterday, vividly.

"Sister Shumei, don't worry, with me, they can't bully you."

Shumei didn't respond, smiled at Xiong Qianqian, and continued to bury herself in making the bed.

Hum! I'm fighting, who am I Xiong Qianqian? That's Sister Qian, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and I am not afraid of those three-headed and six-armed broad wives in the city, and I am afraid of you women who have never seen the world.

Xiong Qianqian used to work in a nightclub, and there was more or less physical intimacy with those men who came to spend money and have fun. Qianqian is young and beautiful, and she can tease people, and many of those men spend money on Qianqian in order to take advantage, and never skimpy on spending money on Qianqian.

Over time, it is inevitable that there are so many so-called "main palaces" that come to nightclubs to find trouble.

Shumei beat her waist, crossed her waist and looked at the fruits of her labor, and said with satisfaction: "Okay! Succeed with flying colors. Qianqian! You take Xiao Shuangning to bed to rest for a while, I haven't eaten this day, I'll go make you something to eat. ”

"Okay, sister, go ahead! I'll keep an eye on it, kid. ”

The house that couldn't get down just now was cleaned up by Shumei, and it was really a bit like it.

Xiong Qianqian had been on the road for a day, and she was indeed a little tired, so she went to bed in response.

Shumei carried a basin of black dirty water and went out of the room with a towel. As soon as I went out, I smelled the smell of meat wafting from the kitchen, and the family of four in the hall ate there.

Seeing Shumei enter the house, Zhang Binglin hurriedly beckoned Shumei to come over and eat something.

When Wu Ju heard this, he stepped heavily on Zhang Binglin's feet, and glared at him angrily.

"Shumei! Ah Niang spoke a little heavier before, this white-haired person sent a black-haired person, it was a real pain! You take care of it a little more, don't complain about A-Niang. ”

Wu Ju got up from the stool, walked up to Shumei, and grabbed Shumei's hand tightly. She was inspired by her daughter to have a long-term meal ticket, and her attitude towards talking to Shumei changed 180 degrees.

Wu Ju's attitude suddenly became so good, Shumei was really a little unaccustomed to it.

"It's okay, Auntie, live your life! There is no bump in the place. ”

"You know, your father and I are also this age, and the family has no financial resources, we eat the last meal every day, and even the children's rations are borrowed from Fu Jun's family. Today, your sister brought the meat and rice from her mother-in-law's house. Now that Jizong is gone, A-Niang really doesn't know how to live in the future. ”

She heard the meaning of Wu Ju's words, because she was afraid that she would leave them alone, and she was unwilling to provide for them.

This is Jizong's father, that is, her father, who raised Jizong, without them, there would be no Jizong, and without Jizong, there would be no family. Even in front of Jizong, she didn't plan to ignore the second elder. Besides, it is a natural thing for younger generations to support their elders.

"Auntie, don't worry, I'll go out tomorrow to find something to do, I have something to eat, and I will never let you drink soup."

"Okay, good, Jizong can marry you, it's really a blessing from the previous life. Haven't eaten yet, have you? Come, come and eat some, although less is less, everyone evenly, let's make do with it! ”

Wu Ju said, pulling Shumei onto the table. Seeing the plate on the table that had bottomed out, and then thinking about Xiong Qianqian was still hungry and waiting for her, how could she not stay to eat.

I really thought that Wu Ju was so kind, it turned out that she had already finished eating it, and she deliberately tossed it like this. At this moment, she was proud in her heart, she was a good person again and had no loss.

"Auntie, no need, I'll just go and order some noodles, Qianqian is still waiting!"

"That's it! This one person can make do with it, but two people are not enough, so you can do it again! ”

"Alas!"

Shumei responded with a smile and prepared to look for rice noodles. But I rummaged through, but I didn't find anything, the rice jar was empty, the noodle basket was empty, and I couldn't find anything to cook.

"Oh! Shumei, I forgot to tell you, the house is really a family with four walls, there is nothing, and the food sent by your sister has been finished tonight. Otherwise, I'll go to the next door to borrow some from the Fu family. It's just that I haven't returned what I borrowed last time, and I really can't wipe my face......" Wu Ju had a helpless expression, so he said to Shumei, who was at a loss for the pestle.

Zhang Binglin sulked his head and didn't say a word, but his face was obviously wrong, and he dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak.

"Auntie, don't bother, I'll figure it out myself."

Touching her hungry rumbling stomach, Shumei wanted to go to see her room, and some of the broken money left before leaving was still there, but as soon as she turned around, she saw that her bedrooms were locked. She could only sigh, walked out of the door of the hall with her head down, and walked towards the courtyard.

Zhang Xiaoqin and Wu Ju stared directly at Shumei's departing back, until they saw Shumei disappear at the gate of the courtyard, and the two high-fived tacitly, announcing the perfect end of the battle.

"Auntie! Anyway, it's also your own daughter-in-law, how can you do this to her? Jiang Fu, who had been sitting there silently, really couldn't stand Wu Ju's words and practices, and said to Wu Ju in a low tone.

Jiang Fu, who has always been obedient, dared to squeeze Wu Ju with such a statement, where is Zhang Xiaoqin willing, slapped the table heavily, stood up from the stool, pointed at Jiang Fu's nose and scolded: "You are the opposite, why do you talk to A-Niang like this, if you don't beat you for three days, you will go to the house to uncover the tiles, and you will be full to hold on, right?" How? I'm distressed, why haven't you ever felt so sorry for me? ”

Jiang Fu didn't dare to squeak again, got up and picked up the back basket on the side of the wall, and prepared to leave.

"I'm full, I'll go home first."

"Stop, who allowed you to go?"

Hearing this, Jiang Fu stopped and was stunned for a moment, and continued to stride towards the door.

"Jiang Fu, you have to dare to take another step, I have to pull your tendons and skin you when you go back, you wretched, what kind of prestige do you come to my mother's house, you have the ability to go to your brothers' houses, and ask for back what should belong to us!"

Seeing that Jiang Fu had no intention of stopping, Zhang Xiaoqin grabbed the chopsticks and threw them at him, but unfortunately the distance was too far and he didn't hit it.

"Good! If you have a kind of leave, don't look back when you leave, as long as you step out of the hospital, I will never go back, you are tired of living a good life. ”

Even if Zhang Xiaoqin persecuted him like this, Jiang Fu still didn't stop hurrying. She was so angry that she sat down on the stool and sulked.

Zhang Binglin: "Xiaoqin, go back with you!" What is there to say, don't learn from your mother, scold your head and cover your face at every turn, the little couple must have a good discussion in order to live a good life. ”

"What kind of return, I will live in our house in the future, he Jiang Fu doesn't have to carry a sedan chair to pick me up, I will never go back, I don't believe I can't cure him." Zhang Xiaoqin was furious, and she also spoke to Zhang Binglin with a roaring attitude.

"Yes, you can't get used to his problem, what kind of virtue, say a few words and leave in anger." Wu Ju also added oil and vinegar to the side, adding fuel to the fire, "Xiaoqin, you can live with peace of mind, your brother is gone, you can live in this house for as long as you want." ”

"Hmmm! It's still A-Niang who treats me well. Hearing Wu Ju say this, the eldest is not small, and she still hugged Wu Ju's arm and sprinkled a coquette.

After Shumei went out, she stood outside the courtyard and wandered for a long time, although her distant relatives were not as good as her close neighbors, but Shumei was really embarrassed to borrow things from her neighbors again.

After careful consideration, she still went to the storage room to find Wen Dazui. Maybe this is the only person who can think of someone who can open his mouth and is willing to help himself!

As she expected, she managed to borrow a few handfuls of noodles from Wen Dazui. When I came back, I pinched a handful of pea tips in the yard and went to the kitchen to make clear water noodles.

Wu Ju and Zhang Xiaoqin hid in Shumei's room, watching every move in the courtyard through the crack in the window.

Zhang Xiaoqin: "A-Niang, did you see it?" What she has is savings. ”

Wu Ju: "It's really true! ”

Zhang Xiaoqin: "In the future, you can think more about yourself, tighten your own things, and try to let her serve you with food, clothing, housing and transportation." ”

Wu Ju: "Okay, A-Niang has it in mind." ”

In the guest room, Shumei and Xiong Qianqian gathered around the broken table in the room, eating clear water noodles and chatting.

"Sister Shumei, I can also see your family, I can't count on it, everything has to rely on you, what are your plans in the future?"

The strong smell of meat in that room, how could Xiong Qianqian not smell it, and then look at the clear water surface of the oil beads they ate, she asked Shumei while stirring half a bowl of noodles in the bowl with chopsticks.

Shumei picked up half a bowl of noodle soup in her hand, drank it to her stomach in one gulp, put down the bowl, wiped her mouth, and let out a long sigh.

"I'll go out tomorrow to find something to do, no matter what the plan is, it's the first thing to fill my stomach."

"That's the same, you can't do anything without money, and a dime can stump a hero! However, Sister Shumei, do you really plan to support this big family by yourself? Your mother-in-law treats you like that, you don't have to care about them, do you? ”

"They are elders, and it is natural to respect their elders. As long as I live, I will not leave them alone. ”

Shumei said as she spoke, and the sleeping child on the bed woke up babbling. Shumei got up and picked up the baby and breastfed the child. The child smelled the long-lost mother's taste, and the meal was very fragrant.

rushed to meet Shumei Pingshui, but she was able to save herself with all kinds of hardship, Xiong Qianqian also understood that she was a kind-hearted person, and it was not easy to persuade her anymore, but she wanted to help her and help her support this family together.

But what can I do with her? Qianqian was thinking carefully about what she could do. At this time, Shumei's voice interrupted her thoughts.

"Qianqian! What about you? What are your plans for the future? Don't go back to those smoky places. ”

Xiong Qianqian thought about it, put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, walked to the bed, sat next to Shumei, touched the child in Shumei's arms, and told Shumei her thoughts.

"Sister Shumei, I want to go to the town to rent a shop and open a hair salon."

Shumei heard Xiong Qianqian say this, and looked at Xiong Qianqian with puzzled eyes, "Hair salon? What kind of hair salon? ”

Shumei didn't understand, she just said that she should not go to that kind of smoky place, she even had to go to the development gallery by herself, she was in a hurry!

Because in Shumei's eyes, no, in the eyes of many people, the "hair salon" is an indecent place. It's the modern version of the legendary prostitute. The courtyard is a place where meat is sold and laughter is sold.

"Sister Shumei, don't look at me like this, I'm talking about the kind of barber shop, that is, the shop that helps others cut their hair. It's better to be your own boss than to go out and find something to do! Xiong Qianqian understood the worry in Shumei's eyes and quickly explained.

Listening to Xiong Qianqian's explanation, Shumei was finally relieved, "That's it?" That and that...... Do you cut your hair? ”
