Chapter 084: Eavesdropping (Four Watches)
I finally came up with an idea, and this person really believes in such a thing.
Xiao Yao was speechless, didn't she know that there was a saying that fate was up to me.
"Last time, I invited someone from the Women's Federation to educate your parents, but you didn't hear clearly what Director Gong said? It's going to be the 21st century, and you still believe in those things. Feudal superstition says that there are gods in the sky and ghosts in the earth, but what about the reality? The spaceships of country M have all gone to the moon, and the center of the earth is full of magma. β
Xiao Yao accidentally said something that Wu Yinju didn't understand at all, but she didn't dare to refute it, and kept nodding and said, "I listen to you." β
"That's right, you have to believe that fate is in your own hands. Those who believe in fate are making excuses for their incompetence and inability. β
After washing the clothes, Wu Yinju wrote his birthday on Xiao Yao's small notebook.
"Yaoyao, can Xu Banxian listen to you? What if he doesn't cooperate? β
Wu Yinju was still a little worried, she was originally a sinister star in the village, if she turned her sinister star fate out again this time, she was afraid that she would have no chance to walk with Xiao Yao in the future.
"He's just a jobless vagrant who has nothing to do, and he's a liar in the first place, and he doesn't have to help him as long as I give me benefits."
Xu Banxian is not just for a little money, Xiao Yao doesn't look down on that person, and he doesn't think he will have any backbone.
Wu Yinju nodded, "If he doesn't want to help, let's forget it, and then think of another way." β
She mentioned this matter to her mother, and there was no way out, but Xiao Yao saw that Wu Yinju was worried that she didn't bring it up, nodded in agreement, and then went home.
In the courtyard of the Xiao family, except for Xiao Datie going to the ground, Jiang Xiaofen and Xiao Yonggang are there.
The two of them were cleaning the table and stools, and when they were done, they were going to build two makeshift stoves in the yard and use steamed meat.
The day after tomorrow, Xiao Datie got married, and the life in the field had to be put aside and prepare for the marriage first.
"Mom, what else are you busy with, I'll do it."
Xiao Yao was about to help after drying her clothes, Jiang Xiaofen gave her the rag in her hand, "Just clean up the table, I'll go outside with your brother to borrow something." β
The tables and stools for the people in the village are all borrowed, and the chef invited by the dishes and chopsticks will bring them, which is not enough for the same owner to borrow from the west.
Xiao Yao has never touched these, and it feels quite novel.
In the afternoon, Xiao Ge and Zhao Yi came over, not only bringing two large baskets of vegetables, but also a wedding gift, a red quilt, a kettle and a basin.
"Mom, my mother-in-law is embarrassed to bring these two baskets of vegetables, it feels like she has taken out her heart."
Xiao Ge couldn't help but complain to his mother when he put the vegetables, and Jiang Xiaofen heard that her eldest daughter might be bullied at her in-law's house, and she was even more upset.
"What's the matter? She said you, scolded you? β
"It's not like that, it's just pulling a face."
"Raising such an old daughter to marry into her Zhao family, two baskets of vegetables are not happy, and being stingy like this was really blinding."
Jiang Xiaofen faced the window when she spoke, her voice was not small at all, and it was clear that she was talking to the eldest son-in-law outside.
Xiao Ge saw that his man pretended not to hear, so he didn't turn around or talk, pulled his mother's sleeve and said, "Mom, Zhao Yi is nothing, it's still towards me." β
This Jiang Xiaofen naturally knew that she just wanted to bring the words to her mother-in-law through her son-in-law's mouth!
However, Jiang Xiaofen could feel that her daughter's status in the family had declined, and she wanted to propose marriage to the Zhao family at the beginning, and she agreed to all the harsh conditions.
Shouldn't the daughter-in-law who spent a lot of money marry home try her best to provide for it, and take two baskets of vegetables to pull her face, if it is not a decline in status, what can it be?
"Ge'er, you've been married to Zhao Yi for more than a year, and your stomach hasn't moved?"
Her daughter is fine with everything, but she didn't get pregnant when she entered the door, which made Jiang Xiaofen a little worried.
The Zhao family has a son of Zhao Yi, if the daughter can become a man in one fell swoop, the status of the Zhao family is not a proper queen.
"Not yet."
Xiao Ge was also a little depressed when she mentioned this, she and her husband are usually very affectionate, and other new daughters-in-law in the village entered the door soon, but her stomach did not move.
The mother-in-law has mentioned this matter twice openly and secretly, but she can't figure out what she can know.
Jiang Xiaofen didn't mention it again when she saw her daughter's loss, but patted her hand and said, "You are only twenty, this matter is not in a hurry, there is little risk of having another child for two more years......"
The mother and daughter were talking quieter and quieter, Xiao Yao outside was no longer audible, and she could only leave the door behind.
Jiang Xiaofen was angry at the window just now, she wanted to come in and persuade her, but she didn't expect to hear something else.
My sister has been married for more than a year and has no children, and she was still thinking about the two of them avoiding it before, and she didn't want it so soon, but she didn't expect it to be.
However, she agreed with her mother's words, she had just turned twenty, and there was no need to worry about the child's affairs at all.
Xiao Ge came over this time to help, and the eldest brother didn't plan to leave before he got married.
At dinner in the evening, a table of people planned to kill pigs tomorrow and marry a daughter-in-law the day after tomorrow, and Xiao Ge also mentioned the matter of Zhao Yi's work.
"Didn't I go to the county to study before, I just came back yesterday, and I will go to the grain station in the town to report in a few days."
Xiao Ge was very happy when she said this, and glanced at her husband with a smile.
It is great to have a job in these small mountain villages, and it is a great honor for Zhao Yi to be transferred to the town.
At the beginning, I would agree to deal with Zhao Yi, except that this person is obedient and good to him, and he is also sloppy, at most because he has a job, otherwise no matter how handsome he looks, he can't be eaten.
"It's a good rush. How about going to town for pay? It's definitely higher than before! β
Jiang Xiaofen was also happy, and for the first time, she also sandwiched a piece of grilled pork ribs for Zhao Yi.
The youngest daughter brought it back from the city, and she didn't want to eat it until now.
Now that the son-in-law has a future, the eldest daughter will be happy in the future.
"By the standard, it's a little bit higher than before."
Zhao Yi finally found a sense of existence in his mother-in-law, and he was in a good mood eating the dishes in the bowl.
However, he didn't feel complacent for long, so he heard his mother-in-law smile and said, "It's a good thing that the salary is high, hurry up and introduce one to my family Yaoyao, and I'll leave this matter to you." β
Xiao Yao, Zhao Yi, "......"
Others, smiling and nodding.
"By the way, sister, we have rented a store in the town to prepare to open a noodle restaurant, if you don't have anything to do, come and help, count yourself in."
Xiao Yao diverted the topic, the young and beautiful waiter in the plan had her sister's share, and she had already thought about it.
"Do you really want to open a noodle restaurant?"
Xiao Ge heard about it last time she came back, but she thought it was a joke at home, but she didn't expect it to be a joke.
"Of course it's true, the faΓ§ade is all decorated, just wait for the eldest brother to finish the marriage and open on the 8th."
"Help, I'll definitely help."
The mother's family wants to do business on their own, of course Xiao Ge is happy, but she is full of promises, but Zhao Yi is a little unhappy after hearing it.
