Chapter 195: Bitter Mouth
"Cai Qing! You see that you have a big business, you need manpower for everything, so I don't ask you to give them a wage increase, you just accept Qingbao, he is clever enough, and he doesn't need to pay more, just give 400 Wen? Aunt Li said cheekily.
"Aunt Li! Are you sure you won't get a raise? That's a good thing, but this yard is one yard, I really need people when I harvest autumn, but aren't you really joking with these four hundred wen? Lu Caiqing asked deliberately.
"Cai Qing! I'm so old, do you think Aunt Li is the one who likes to joke? Aunt Li said solemnly.
Lu Caiqing listened, and laughed in her heart, this Aunt Li is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, seeing that the boss can't raise the money, she quickly found a reason, it turns out that this is her real purpose, in fact, Aunt Li doesn't know, that is, she won't come here today, Lu Caiqing They also agreed to let Li Qingbao come here to work, who is not to do it, and also eliminated the contradiction between Brother Li and his family, but since she intends to make it difficult, it can't all follow her thoughts.
Lu Caiqing said again: "Aunt Li, do you see if I, Second Brother Li, have a few more hands or feet than anyone, does he have three heads and six arms, or can one person do the work of two people?" ”
"Pick green! Don't look at your second brother Li, who looks a little thinner, but this head turns fast, just go out to settle accounts and catch a car or something. "Aunt Li doesn't know what she knows, so she is just bragging here.
"Huh? Second Brother Li can also settle accounts, catch a car, and have a good brain, Brother Song! Looks like he's here to steal your job, and I'm just trying to hire a long-term worker. Lu Caiqing smiled contemptuously.
Song Ziyu couldn't listen to it, and said: "Aunt Li, don't let him come, he will be these little daughters-in-law, do you want him to come to my Song family's home?" We don't dare to ask for such talents, and we can't afford to hire them. ”
"Aunt Li, listen to it, you scared my Brother Song, an honest person, and I didn't dare to invite it!" Lu Caiqing followed Song Ziyu's words and deliberately picked it up.
Aunt Li saw that she had blown her rice bowl out of her nonsense, so she hurriedly went back to find a word: "Cai Qing!" Look at what you said, how can we go to your house to be in charge, I just said that my second child is stronger than those two, and one enemy is two, so I can earn the wages of two people. ”
"Aunt Li just said that she always talked about it, but she didn't get to the point, I just wanted a long-term job, is he as strong as Brother Li? If you can do the work of two people, I will give him 400 wen a month, you see that I don't bully people! Lu Caiqing spread out his hand and said truthfully.
"This! Isn't your request difficult for your second brother Li? His bones are here! Aunt Li looked a little embarrassed.
"That's it, his body is here, according to the market price in January, 200 wen in January, I will accept it when I come, and if I don't come, we will just talk about it." Lu Caiqing directly sealed her mouth and did not continue to entangle with her.
Aunt Li is also a person who can look at the eyes, seeing that Lu Caiqing is a little impatient, she knows what kind of material her son is, less is less, how to say that it is also an income, how can it be better than him eating and drinking at home and going out to gamble.
smiled and agreed, and just about to get up, Lu Caiqing said again: "Aunt Li! But the collection is received, let's talk about the ugly words to the end, we have not been in contact with the second brother Li, and I don't know the character, if he steals chickens and dogs at my house or picks quarrels and provokes trouble, I can be fired directly, this Aunt Li went back to explain to the second brother Li, then again, Brother Li's character is excellent, I think the second brother Li will not be bad, you have to do your duty when you go to work, I can't manage it after work, Aunt Li, do you say? ”
Lu Caiqing was afraid that what he said would hurt his temperament, so he praised Li Qingbao again, slapped him and gave him a sweet date.
"Yes, yes, yes! We know this, you can rest assured! My two sons have nothing to say about their character, so it's decided today, I'll take Qingbao back first, and work early tomorrow morning! Aunt Li got up and complimented her child for his outstanding character, and got up to say goodbye.
Lu Caiqing also said a few polite words, and Li Qingbao, the foodie, picked a few big ones from the sweet potato basket sent by Lu Caiqing before leaving.
Brother Li and his wife sent the two of them away, and when they returned to the house, Sister-in-law Li's eyes turned red again: "Cai Qing!" If you don't come today, your mother-in-law will have to make trouble at home for a long time, and she will have to go to the yard to play a scoundrel, saying that we don't care about the house. Fortunately, you are here, you are now my backbone, I really don't know how I would have lived today without your help. ”
Li Shuang sobbed quietly, Brother Li didn't have any words, buried his head and sat on the kang, Lu Caiqing saw it, cheered up and said, "Okay!" Things are all solved, why are they still frowning, as long as the money can solve the things, it's not a thing, it's okay to delay for half a day, it's time to go to work? ”
Li Qingyuan listened, got up and said, "Cai Qing!" It's all your sister-in-law who has a lot of tongues, otherwise you wouldn't have caught up with my mother to make trouble. ”
"Brother Li! We came here today purely to deliver things, but didn't Sister-in-law Li say anything small, and besides, do you still use Sister-in-law Li to say it? You didn't come to work, as soon as I entered the house and saw Aunt Li there, I understood, who else did I say. Lu Caiqing explained to Sister-in-law Li.
Li Qingyuan raised his eyes to look at his daughter-in-law, and knew that he had wronged her with apologies, Sister-in-law Li turned her head and got angry when she saw it, and Lu Caiqing saw it, and couldn't help but say, "Brother Li!" You are older than me, I shouldn't have said this, but I really can't bear to see Sister-in-law Li being wronged. ”
Li Qingyuan listened and said, "Cai Qing! You say I'll listen, no matter who in our family listens to you, even my mother is afraid of you, because what you say is reasonable. ”
"Then I said, you behaved well at the beginning of today, and you knew how to defend your daughter-in-law, but when Aunt Li touched you with tears, you immediately discarded Sister-in-law Li, you must know that your mother is your relative, and so is Sister-in-law Li, no one stops you from doing your filial piety to your mother, but you have responsibilities and obligations to your wife, you can't let your woman be wronged for your mother, your mother is not her Li family, you don't care, she is really just an outsider." Lu Caiqing finally said the words that he had held in his heart.
Brother Li nodded again and again: "It's me who is wrong!" didn't take into account Li Shuang's feelings, I always thought that as a son, I should live according to my mother's wishes, and I had to listen to the words of my elders in everything, that is, filial piety, and I didn't put Li Shuang in the right position, you are right, my mother is not the Li family, I should take care of her feelings, Cai Qing, you can rest assured, I will pay attention in the future, and try not to let them have conflicts. ”
"Contradictions and conflicts Since ancient times, it has been a difficult problem for mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to get along, I just hope that I will persuade my mother-in-law to be more considerate of Sister-in-law Li's feelings, and don't quarrel with her whenever there is a conflict, that is not the solution to the problem." Lu Caiqing sincerely persuaded.
"Know! Know! Thank you for my brother's business, I know you have always disliked him, and today you made an exception to accept him, I know that you are for us. ”
"Thank you I don't have to, if I don't accept him today, she will continue to be noisy, I am for the quiet of your life, and the peace of mind that Sister-in-law Li can live, as long as the two of you are not noisy or noisy, we think it is worth it!" Lu Caiqing said happily.
Sister-in-law Li wiped her tears and said, "Cai Qing!" I am lucky to meet you in my life, and it is also the luck of our family, not to mention, you understand me, don't be wronged, don't get angry, we will be good in the future. ”
Lu Caiqing listened and was happy for them, along the way, Li Qingyuan coaxed Li Shuang, at first he still pushed and shoved, and then walked hand in hand.
Song Ziyu saw that they were holding hands, so he took Lu Caiqing's hand beside him and said, "Little daughter-in-law!" You are getting better and better, you can settle down with such a difficult Aunt Li, I really envy you, these are all things I should do, but now they have become your business, and you are tired. ”
"What are you tired of! It's just a few clicks! Speaking of which, Aunt Li is also for her son, I heard that Li Qingbao has often gone out to gamble and drink recently, not doing his job, in order not to let Brother Li's family be dragged down, even if Aunt Li doesn't say it, we should also give him a serious job for him to do, so as not to follow in the footsteps of the second child of the Chen family. Lu Caiqing said with some emotion.
Song Ziyu listened and knew that she was thinking about the Chen family again, so she took her hand and tightened it again: "It's all over, don't think about it anymore!" ”
"Isn't this Brother Song and Sister Caiqing? Why did you come out, I've been waiting here for a long time! ”
A female voice shouted coquettishly, and then a figure came up and stopped in front of them.
Lu Caiqing knew that it was Chen Xiaoyan when she heard the voice, but she didn't expect that she had just seen her the day before yesterday, but today she shook in front of her again, and she was really a thief.
Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, since he came, he could only open his mouth to respond: "Isn't this Sister Xiaoyan?" How do you know that we have come to the village and are still waiting here. ”
"Oh! I just saw Brother Ziwu rushing to deliver sweet potatoes to my family before I knew that Brother Song you came to the village, I just want to express my gratitude on behalf of my father, so I am waiting for you here, and by the way, I apologize to you again, it was mine in the field that day, you must not go to your heart. ”
Chen Xiaoyan stroked the broken hair on her face as she spoke, pretending to be shy, and bowed her head to apologize.
"Sister Xiaoyan! You are too polite, don't worry, Brother Song and I didn't go to our hearts at all, you don't have to feel guilty, Ziwu should have been gone for a long time, you seem to have been waiting for a long time, looking at your face is red, if the skin is dry, it will be our fault, let's hurry back, we have to catch up and find Brother Li, and we won't accompany you first. ”
Lu Caiqing said a lot sarcastically and mockingly, and then no matter how embarrassed Chen Xiaoyan's face was, he pulled Song Ziyu and walked home.
Chen Xiaoyan was really in a good mood, she didn't get angry after being counted down for a long time, and replied: "Thank you Sister Caiqing for your concern, I'll go back and thank you in person, I won't leave you when I know you're busy." ”
