Chapter 86: Fighting for Strength
Aunt Deng has always been a well-known skillful woman in the alley, but she is diligent and duty-bound, she has been married to her mother-in-law's family for 20 years, and she has never received a good word from her mother-in-law.
No matter what she did, her mother-in-law always stretched her lower lip, "What's this?" Think we were younger......"
Until last month.
For the first time, she came back with a salary of two taels of silver, but the whole family was frightened.
The mother-in-law opened her mouth wide and counted back and forth four or five times before asking, "This, this is not a miscalculation, right?" Do you want to return it? ”
Aunt Deng muttered, "I'm also afraid of being wrong, so I asked three times." But Meiniang said, it's mine. Mother, mother, take it, so much money, I'm really afraid of losing it. ”
The mother-in-law seemed to want to say something, but in the end she shut up and put the money into the old pickle jar under the bed. Thinking about it, I didn't feel at ease, so I hugged it to the pillow and rested it again.
When it was time for the Mid-Autumn Festival, I personally ran to cut a thick piece of fat pork, and the whole family had a beautiful meal.
Then on the first day of September, Aunt Deng rushed to take the exam of Shunxin needlework early in the morning, and rushed back early to cook.
The mother-in-law was curious and asked her how she did in the exam, but Aunt Deng only shook her head honestly.
"I don't know, I panicked, and ran back to the hut three times. I didn't even dare to look at it, and I came back after the exam. ”
The mother-in-law scolded her for being cowardly and useless, and she didn't dare to reply.
Originally? I'm cowardly.
Every time the woman next door deceived her, she had to rely on her mother-in-law to roll around.
said that although the mother-in-law from home was a little fierce, she was not like those evil mothers-in-law, deliberately beating and scolding her daughter-in-law.
It's just that you don't have a good face, that's it.
Afternoon.
Uncle Deng came back earlier than usual, and he didn't bother to wipe his sweat, so he hurriedly asked his wife, "I heard that you took the first exam in the town, is it true?" ”
Aunt Deng was startled, "What first, I don't know!" ”
The boy from the Deng family also ran back, and said excitedly, "Mother, mother!" You really took the first exam, and the big red list was posted outside the sewing shop, and I heard that there were also colorful heads! ”
Granny Deng jumped off the bed in a hurry, "What color head?" Can your mother still take the first place? Don't have the same name and surname, right? ”
"That's right! It's my mother. Didn't my mother embroider a purse? It's all hung out, I recognize it! ”
Granny Deng still didn't believe it.
immediately helped his grandson, and the whole family rushed to see it together.
Outside the needlework shop, there is indeed a big red list.
The words on it, the Deng family didn't know any of them except for the Deng word.
But the purse made by Aunt Deng is recognized by the whole family.
She pondered for seven or eight days, changed the pattern and color several times, and Granny Deng scolded her for wasting things and delaying her work.
At this time, the purse was hanging at the front, and there was a large hanging coin strung with a red rope next to it, obviously more than the last two.
Acquaintances quipped, "Yo, the champion is here!" Granny Deng, hurry up, get the money for your daughter-in-law! ”
Granny Deng was like a dream, in the clouds, she stepped forward and received the money in a daze, and she touched and touched it.
As for Aunt Deng, she has long been stupid.
It was all pulled by Uncle Deng, who couldn't close his mouth with a smile, otherwise he wouldn't have left.
The family held the happy money, and they didn't know how many compliments they heard all the way, and when they arrived at the door of the house, the neighbor women who had never been good at talking were smiling.
also asked enviously, "Can I let my daughter come to learn from my aunt when I go back?" ”
Heh, hehe.
Encountering an old opponent, Granny Deng finally came back to her senses.
"How do I remember when I heard people say in a trance that death did not come to my house? Did I hear it wrong, or something? ”
The neighbor was embarrassed, "That's all in the past." When the teeth were still biting their tongues, our neighbors for so many years always had some bumps. At most, I'll let you go. ”
Shh
Granny Deng, who found the field, said arrogantly, "At most, in the future, I will also let my daughter-in-law teach your daughter-in-law to do something." ”
Finally shook hands and made peace.
Just about to turn her head and say something to her daughter-in-law, Granny Deng suddenly snorted, "What smell?" ”
Aunt Deng was shocked.
Pulling out his legs, he ran to the kitchen, "Rice, rice is paste!" ”
ran out in a panic, and forgot to smoke the firewood at the bottom of the stove.
She thought that her mother-in-law would definitely be scolding again, but who knew that Granny Deng waved her hand.
"Forget it, feed the ** when it's paste, and let the child go to the street to buy some food and come back. Hey, daughter-in-law, you won the first place today, which can be regarded as fighting for our old Deng family. Let's just eat a ready-made one, and we are all happy. ”
Unexpectedly, Aunt Deng actually covered her mouth and cried.
Granny Deng was surprised, "I didn't scold you again, why are you crying?" ”
"Mother, this, this is the first time you have praised me. I, I'm happy ......"
"Ouch, you stupid girl, don't you praise you, aren't you afraid of your tail? This, this brought tears down my eyes......"
After many years of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they finally shook hands and made peace.
On this day, there are many stories in the town of Twin Rivers.
When the women on the list came to receive the work, they were all full of energy!
Those who are on the list are certainly glorious, but between each other, is there no dissatisfaction?
Isn't it true that someone was born with six fingers, so why is he inferior to a human?
Compare next month!
The women became more motivated and more attentive to the needlework given to them.
It's no longer about doing what you are told, it's better than thinking about how to do it.
The beautiful lady is naturally happy to hear about this.
After sending out the new season's needlework, I also had fun with Aunt Qiu.
"In the future, you probably won't have to worry about it, and you will be able to figure out new tricks."
Aunt Qiu slapped the table angrily, "Where's your needlework?" I'm going to test you too! ”
The little beauty girl turned around beautifully, showing her new clothes, "Isn't this it?" ”
"You didn't do that!"
"But here's what I painted. It's better to be like this, auntie, let's compare each other behind closed doors. Just talk about it, don't practice, fake it! ”
Aunt Qiu is angry.
Aunt Ge gloated, "Yes!" If you want to provoke trouble, people who can't even wear needles well will still test people! ”
Aunt Qiu was so angry that she wanted to screw her, but Zhou Juan came.
The beautiful girl smiled, "I know that my aunt wants me to be motivated, but if I participate, won't I take the first elephant talk?" Do you still want to compete with them? Even Sister Juan, I didn't let her participate. Well, that's what I did. Sister Juan, what about yours? ”
The beautiful lady handed over a rope, which is a small coffin and ingot, which means that it is promoted to become wealthy, novel and chic.
Zhou Juan handed over a money bag, which was embroidered not with ordinary flowers and plants, but with a tiger. It wasn't made of fabric, but a small piece of cowhide.
Aunt Qiu was finally satisfied.
Although Aunt Mei does both men's and women's clothing, they still decided to concentrate on men's clothing accessories first.
Aunt Deng, who took the first place, accurately grasped this proposition.
The purse she made has a calm color and a generous pattern, which can be used by old, middle-aged and young men.
The promotion and fortune made by the beautiful lady is to cater to the preferences of Wucheng officials and businessmen.
And the tiger money bag made by Zhou Juan is aimed at a large number of garrisons in Wucheng. Leather is hard-wearing, more suitable for them, and more affordable to sell for.
When the beautiful lady saw it, she smiled and said, "Sister Ajuan, this is more clever than I thought." ”
Aunt Qiu snorted coldly, "It's good to know, count your tail!" ”
Aunt Zhou Juange couldn't help laughing, watching her bickering like a child.
There are only two people in total, either the first name or the last name, what is there to fight for?
