Mei Zhizhong said "hi", "You think you're afraid?" I'm also afraid that the third child will be like a dog skin plaster, and he will stick it to me in the future. ”

"Then you still ......" Mei Zhijun was halfway through his words, and Mei Zhizhong had already interrupted his unfinished words in a low voice.

The two brothers were next to each other, muttering and biting their ears for about a minute, and Mei Zhijun's originally gloomy face that could almost drip water finally eased a little.

"Okay, then do as you say." He glanced back at She Yufen, "Give me a thousand yuan." ”

She Yufen opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, she went to get money for Mei Zhijun without saying a word.

Mei Zhizhong whispered to Mei Zhijun and sighed, "You are more blessed than your eldest brother, you look at Yufen, you are obviously not happy, but you still care about your face and go to get you money." It's like your sister-in-law, who almost didn't quarrel with me for this thousand dollars. ”

Mei Zhijun glanced at him, "You don't look at what conditions your family is now!" How much money have you spent on seeking medical advice over the years, usually you don't eat well, don't drink well, my sister-in-law lives a little tighter, in the final analysis, it's not for your family! ”

Mei Zhizhong was so stunned by him that he had nothing to say, so he could only scratch his head in embarrassment and smirk.

He and Zheng Juan have also been married for several years, but they have not been able to have children, since the year before last, they have been seeking medical advice, and the two of them really can't earn much money all year round, so their family's life can only be regarded as passable.

Leng Buding took out a thousand yuan, and Zheng Juan was not happy, which is understandable.

But since Zheng Juan revealed the true situation of the old Mei family that year, so that Mei Zhiming's marriage collapsed, Mei Zhizhong has always felt guilty about Mei Zhiming.

In their place, people believe in the old principle of "rather tearing down ten temples than breaking one marriage".

Except for those who are very close to the man or woman who is about to marry, and can tell any big truth to their relatives without avoiding suspicion, if others say bad things about one of them, even if the bad words are true, it is basically the rhythm of enmity with the person who is being said badly.

Even the neighbors who know about it will see this kind of bad marriage behavior as a sign of "lack of morality".

Mei Zhizhong hasn't studied for a few years, but the conventional folk customs are deeply rooted in his bones, even if he knows that Zhao Huiying and Mei Zhiming are doing something wrong, he still can't help but blame himself from time to time.

Especially in the past few years, Zhao Huiying has not negotiated with Mei Zhiming, which has further aggravated Mei Zhizhong's guilt.

Now that there is finally a woman who likes Mei Zhiming's appearance and temper, he is willing to marry him, and Mei Zhizhong naturally wants to fulfill their fate.

After taking the money, Mei Zhijun followed Mei Zhizhong to Zhao Huiying's house.

When he returned, the hands of the clock on the wall of his house were already pointing to half past nine.

She Yufen heard the sound of the door opening, so she hurriedly put on her shoes and went out to greet her, "Do you care if you eat?" ”

Mei Zhijun shook his head, "Patronizing and quarreling." ”

She Yufen looked at him with a smile and a smile, "Then you wait a while, I'll give you a hot meal now." ”

After Mei Zhijun left, she made stewed poached eggs with shredded pickles, stewed tofu with pork and cabbage vermicelli, and two rice for Mei Yali and Mei Hongwen to eat.

Before eating, she deliberately left a bowl of pickled shredded pickled eggs and a bowl of pork and cabbage vermicelli stewed tofu out, just because she was worried that Mei Zhijun would not be able to eat.

Since the two large blue-edged white bowls and the remaining two rice bowls had been kept warm in the big iron pot, She Yufen served the hot meal in less than a quarter of an hour.

Before Mei Zhijun came back, Mei Yali was occupying half of the kang table to practice calligraphy, and at this time Mei Zhijun wanted to eat at the kang table, so she moved her position to the window sill.

Her house is a three-room small earthen house, and the width of the window sill is narrower than that of ordinary houses.

And because there was no place for her legs under the windowsill, she could only kneel in front of the windowsill and draw the calligraphy one by one.

"What the hell is going on? What did the eldest brother tell you just now? She Yufen asked Mei Zhijun while making shoes.

Mei Zhijun swallowed the food in his mouth, and said to She Yufen concisely: "The eldest brother told me that there is an old bachelor in the family, and in the future, all of us will have to be laughed at by the old neighbors, so let me be like him, and give a thousand yuan to the third brother to talk about his daughter-in-law." ”

She Yufen let out a long sigh, "This is the disadvantage of being thin-skinned. If you want to put aside the family of someone who wants money to die, if you don't laugh at it, why can you still eat it as food? ”

The "family of people who want money to die" she said is really not a small number in their Heigang Township.

Even in a small village like Taizi Village, where there are only about 20 households, there are as many as three or four families who ask for money and shamelessness.

But the two of them, as well as Mei Zhizhong, obviously can't give up that face, and they can't let others laugh at it.

"Then can she agree? Didn't she ask you for three thousand? ”

Mei Zhijun pouted, "She doesn't disagree!" She originally planned to instigate her eldest brother and Zhifeng to mess with me first, forcing me to give her 3,000 yuan, and then she turned her face and asked her eldest brother for 3,000 yuan. In this way, she doesn't need any bride price, money for buying a house, money for wine, money for clothes and bedding, she won't have to pay a penny! ”

She Yufen half-opened her mouth in surprise, and it took a long time before she said angrily and funny, "She has a big appetite!" Why doesn't she want to think about it, can the eldest brother take out so much money?! ”

"She asked her eldest brother to borrow money from her sister-in-law, her father, and her brothers." Mei Zhijun shook his head again and again as he spoke, obviously quite speechless at Zhao Huiying's whimsy.

"She's clear. I said that our family didn't have that much money, so she said that I should give our tricycle to the third child. He also said that although it has been open for a few days, there must be people willing to buy it if it is cheaper. ”

Mei Zhijun got angry again as he spoke, he put down his chopsticks, took a deep breath before continuing, "The most annoying thing is Xiao Zhifeng, she doesn't pay for it herself, but she doesn't mean to open her mouth at all to help Yali and her grandmother ask us for money." ”

She Yufen had already guessed that this would be the case, and she asked Mei Zhijun, "Then how did you talk about Yali's milk in the end?" ”

"What do you mean?! Is she the one who can make sense? It was the eldest brother who said cruel words, saying that this is all there is to it, not to pull it down. And the eldest brother also asked her to write an IOU, saying that the money should not have been paid by us, and if she didn't write it, then we wouldn't give it. ”

She Yufen's eyes widened, "Big brother, this is ...... Oops, he's straightened his waist so coldly, why am I not used to it? ”

As she spoke, She Yufen also slapped her thigh.
