Chapter 12: Chilling

Pu Mu has gained a lot today. Along the way, the steps are brisk and smiling. That's 300 yuan is a lot of money for me.

I think of myself, an old lady in the countryside, where have I seen so much money! Usually, every month Ye Jingshu will give herself forty yuan as the family's expenses. There are many people in the family, and the money is only enough for a large family to eat.

But when it comes to the New Year's holidays, it is not enough to buy clothes and shoes.

Before Ye Jingshu married into the family, their old Pu family had always only relied on two acres of land in the backyard to live, usually planting some vegetables by themselves, raising a few chickens, and then taking eggs to the market to exchange some rice to support a few children, but how can the two children in the family have enough to eat for this little thing!

Occasionally, Pu Mu can exchange those things for some money, but their children have to study! The family couldn't afford to pay the tuition fees for the three children, so they had to let the second child, who was the best at homework, go to school, and the other two went out to work.

thought that they would be able to make the whole family live a good life after graduation, but they didn't expect that the only promising second child suffered another disaster! Thinking of this, Pu Mu couldn't help but feel sad again, and gently wiped the old tears from the corners of her eyes.

Although Pu Mu loves to chew the root of her tongue, is greedy for cheapness, and has a bad reputation in the village, she feels very sorry for her son.

I wanted to pull a few feet of material for Dafu and Dagui to make clothes, but when I entered the cloth shop and asked, I immediately dispelled this idea:

The material of this dress is so expensive, it costs ten yuan for a foot, and if I buy the cloth and go back, my family will see it and ask myself where the money came from. You can't tell them that you sold the bracelet!

Da Gui'er said that she should put the bracelet up, and did not let her sell it, what if her son found out and complained about herself? Isn't this a mess that can't be bought with money!

Besides, I haven't saved any money, although Ye Jingshu will give her living expenses every month, but every time she has to give her kind words, after all, the hands of people are short, and the mouth of eating people is soft. Although she is a mother-in-law, she does not have the majesty of her elders, which is really aggrieved! Now that I have money on my body, I have the confidence in my heart, and now I have to give Ye Jingshu's little hooves a good stand!

The other side.

Ye Jingshu came to Pentagon Park, which is located in the center of H City, and there is a very prosperous shopping street nearby, and people usually go to the restaurant on the opposite shopping street to eat after visiting the park. The eldest sister-in-law, Pu Xiu, was handing out leaflets for a rice noodle shop on this street.

Ye Jingshu asked while walking, and after inquiry, she finally saw the eldest sister in overalls shouting on the edge of the flower bed:

"Hey! Dear folks, fathers and elders, big brothers, big sisters, uncles and aunts, all come and see! The opening of rice noodles every day is a big reward! Eat a bowl and get a bowl free, it's not delicious, don't pay for it! "The hard shouting and exaggerated movements did attract a lot of customers.

Pu Xiu saw Ye Jingshu, as if she had seen a savior, and her eyes immediately lit up: "Come on, come on, Jingshu, our mother asked you to substitute for me, why did you come?" I'm dying of heat! ”

After that, he threw a stack of leaflets to Ye Jingshu:

"Hey, Boss Huang is really a 'Zhou Papi'! I was only given five yuan in the morning, and in order to prevent me from being lazy, I also specially looked for someone to watch, for fear that I would not be able to send it well. ”

After that, Pu Xiu took a bottle of water handed over by Ye Jingshu, took a sip, wiped his sweat and said:

"Jingshu, you can send a single page here for me during this time, remember, you have to send out the number of single pages arranged in the store before noon every day, and you are not allowed to throw it away secretly, and you must ensure that customers enter the store, or there will be no wages to open, remember!" After speaking, without waiting for Ye Jingshu to answer, he left without looking back.

Ye Jingshu looked at the eldest sister who disappeared as soon as she slipped through the smoke, and was speechless for a while. The weather is too hot, I feel that the temperature is close to 40 degrees, and I only give five yuan for a whole morning, how can I make more money by opening a braised meat shop!

Originally, I wanted to start renting a new store to sell lo-mei after I settled here, but my mother-in-law had already told me that it was better to finish Pu Xiu's job before thinking about opening a store.

For several days in a row, Ye Jingshu had to get up early in the morning, make food for the family before handing out leaflets, and go home to wash the family's clothes and clean up the house after being busy.

Although the job of handing out leaflets is not technical, it is indeed a real physical work, Ye Jingshu can't help but bask again, after a few days, the person has lost a lot of weight, and his complexion is several degrees darker than before.

I thought that my family would feel sorry for myself when I looked at my eldest sister's face, but every time I came home a little late, my mother-in-law was very impatient with her:

After a while, he said that Ye Jingshu was cooking too late and hungry everyone; After a while, I thought that her cooking was not delicious, and she put too much soy sauce; Even the matter of giving birth that has not been mentioned for a long time began to gossip, disgusted that Ye Jingshu would not give birth if she had a physical problem, she was a hen that could not lay eggs, and she wanted to find another woman to give birth to her son......

In short, Ye Jingshu just felt that her mother-in-law was too abnormal during this time, and she always wanted to pick bones in eggs.

At first, Ye Jingshu could bear it, but after hearing about the child, she really felt too wronged, so she couldn't help but secretly wipe her tears, hoping that her husband could help her say justice and protect her. But Pu Dafu turned a blind eye to this, and Ye Jingshu was cold and stopped mentioning this matter.

Ye Jingshu thought of when her husband pursued her, and vowed to protect her, take care of her, and not let her suffer the slightest grievance, but time has passed, and the original vow is like an overnight meal that has not been touched for a long time, it has long been rancid and smelly.

After so many years, only I still remember these words. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but think of what her mother said to her back then:

"Jingshu, the more sweet the man is, the less reliable he is. A man's mouth, a lying ghost. ”

But he was not deeply involved in the world at that time, and his feelings were even more blank, and after hearing Pu Dafu's confession, he couldn't wait to wander the world with him immediately, and he had already left his mother's advice behind. As it turned out, it turned out to be ......

Oh, man!

But thinking of the child's affairs, Ye Jingshu felt guilty.

I have been with Pu Dafu for so many years, but I have never been able to give birth to a child of my own. After getting married, Pu Dafu rarely touched himself, and Ye Jingshu always thought that her husband didn't like children.

But a few years ago, when the eldest brother brought back this illegitimate child who was thrown away by her own good son, she looked at her husband holding Xiao Bao'er lovingly, and tears fell sour in her heart. It turns out that the husband doesn't like children from time to time, he just doesn't like to have children with him.

So in the past few years, Ye Jingshu has been working hard to run the business of the braised meat stall and slowly saved a sum of money.

Later, the stall finally became a storefront, and the living standard of the family also improved a notch. Ye Jingshu has been thinking about her husband seeing her efforts, can she slowly move him and make him fall in love with herself again?

Originally, on the way back from his mother's funeral a few days ago, her husband also thoughtfully poured water for herself, thinking that her husband was going to accept herself, but today's cold eyes hit Ye Jingshu into the abyss again.

She began to deeply suspect that she left her parents, stayed away from her hometown, traveled thousands of miles to Sichuan, and had to provide food and clothing for her in-laws' family. In the end, will they be treated like this?

Ye Jingshu didn't know if she could continue.

But her mother's death made her cheer up again, she had always thought that her mother's death was purely accidental, but since she saw the bracelet in her mother-in-law's hand that was similar to her mother Xiao, her intuition always told her that this matter may not be so simple.

It seems that he has to make a trip to the post office to see if his father's reply has come, and then make further plans.
