Chapter 36: Rice is carried away

In the age they live in now, 200 yuan is already a huge amount of money.

In the early years, when Mei Zhijun and She Yufen got married, most of them followed the gifts, with one or two yuan, and a few with five or ten yuan, all of whom had an excellent relationship with Mei Zhijun and had a relatively wealthy family.

This is also why Mei Zhijun would say that to give Mei Zhizhong a gift, "Twenty yuan is enough."

Sure enough, the number of "two hundred" shocked She Yufen.

She gasped, "You're going to spend all the money on your eldest brother for our rabbits!" ”

Mei Zhijun was short of breath when he was questioned by She Yufen, and he smiled at She Yufen with a flattering face, "Don't be angry, I'm not discussing with you?" I was thinking, it's a big deal, let's raise him another hundred and eighty rabbits next year and earn this money back. ”

She Yufen frowned and didn't speak for a long time.

Mei Zhijun, who was becoming more and more weak because of She Yufen's silence, was hesitating to reduce the amount from two hundred to one hundred, but She Yufen suddenly "snapped" and slapped her hand on the kang table, "Two hundred is two hundred." It's just to repay the favor that your eldest brother secretly gave us fifty yuan. ”

She Yufen is talking about the year when she was pregnant with Mei Yali, when Zhao Huiying was tossing her to death, she was not feeling well and wanted to see a doctor, but Zhao Huiying, who had the financial power of the family, would not give her a son.

At that time, Mei Zhijun didn't have much money - all the money he saved for marriage had been used for bride price and wine, and after marriage, all his wages were asked by Zhao Huiying under various names.

Mei Zhizhong, who still went back to his hometown for the New Year, couldn't see it, and secretly stuffed fifty yuan to Mei Zhijun.

She Yufen has always remembered this favor of his, so even though her heart hurts so much that she cuts her flesh and tears her heart, she is still ruthless, gritted her teeth, and agreed to fund Mei Zhizhong with 200 yuan.

She looked fierce, but she inexplicably showed a little pitiful and cute appearance that made Mei Zhijun laugh, he was moved in his heart, and there was a little more smile on his face unconsciously.

Their family had no money, and his daughter-in-law felt sorry for the money, but no matter how much money he had, his daughter-in-law still agreed that he would take out so much money to help Mei Zhizhong, who was living a more difficult life.

"Daughter-in-law, you are so nice." Just when She Yufen was about to be annoyed and angry because of his inexplicable smile, Mei Zhijun suddenly said sweet words.

She Yufen's face turned red, and it took a long time for her to glance at Mei Zhijun, "Talking about business, what nonsense are you talking about?" ”

Mei Zhijun smiled, "What I said is serious." ”

She Yufen couldn't hold it back, but she still laughed out loud after all, "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!" ”

Mei Yali, who was caught off guard by being fed a mouthful of dog food by her parents: ...... Woo woo~~~ The children who are ignored are so pitiful......

On the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, Mei Yali was taken by Mei Zhijun and She Yufen and took a shuttle bus to Wulicha Village, Shuidi Township, where Mei Zhizhong was located.

The radio station where Mei Zhizhong works is in Wulicha Village, and the hut Mei Zhizhong rents is located next to the radio station.

His fiancΓ©e, Zheng Juan, was introduced to him by his landlord, and in addition to the bride price of a few hundred yuan, Zheng Juan's parents also proposed to let Mei Zhizhong stay in Shuidi Township for a long time, instead of taking their daughter back to the ravines of Taizi Village.

Regarding this point, not to mention Mei Zhizhong himself, even Zhao Huiying, who is the most difficult to serve, also raised his hands in favor, so this condition can basically be ignored for the Mei family.

Mei Zhijun and She Yufen went to Mei Zhizhong two days in advance, and the reason why they went so early was because Mei Zhijun wanted to contribute to his brother's wedding.

He is not as big-hearted as Zhao Huiying, and he doesn't want his brother to be looked down upon by the Yue family because of his family's refusal to help.

And the truth is indeed as he expected, since the wedding date, Mei Zhizhong has been busy with his feet.

Therefore, the arrival of their family of three made Mei Zhizhong greatly relieved.

Mei Zhijun sent the two bags of white noodles he and She Yufen brought, and then stuffed two hundred yuan to Mei Zhizhong, "Don't tell Yali that I gave you money, you can also put the white noodles in other places first, and when they are all gone, you can take the noodles back and eat them slowly with my sister-in-law." ”

Mei Zhizhong nodded again and again, "I'll send the noodles to the unit later." ”

She Yufen was confused, she didn't understand what Mei Zhijun and Mei Zhizhong were doing, but Mei Yali, who had memories of her previous life, almost immediately guessed who the twin brothers were guarding against.

In the next two days, Mei Zhijun and She Yufen have been helping Mei Zhizhong with everything.

Unlike their initiative, Mei Jinfeng, Zhao Huiying, Mei Zhifeng, and Mei Zhiming, who was helping others herd sheep in Shuidi Township, these four people waited until the evening of the day before the wedding to appear in front of Mei Zhizhong.

Obviously, they just don't want to do anything at all.

Mei Yali nested in She Yufen's arms, pretending to sleep motionlessly, but the little person in her heart had already rolled her eyes more than a dozen times one after another - it is a shame that in this era, as long as you get the certificate and set a few tables of wine, you can be considered to have completed the marriage ceremony, otherwise Mei Zhizhong's parents and younger siblings will have to be yellow in their posture of "being guests and eating banquets".

And what happened after the wedding was not much different from what Mei Yali had heard in her previous life.

The humble new house with only one set of bedding and two pillows, and the embarrassing situation of having no rice at home on the second day of the wedding forced Mei Yali, a freshly baked aunt, to shed tears directly.

"Last night when I was cooking, there was rice in the stove. I remember it clearly. I used up the rice in the rice bowl, but there is still half a bag of millet next to the rice bowl, which can be about twenty or thirty catties. Zheng Juan wiped her tears and said to Mei Zhizhong incomprehensibly: "It's not like I slept and our rice was carried away, right?" ”

Mei Zhizhong's face turned green.

His intuition told him that his daughter-in-law's casual remarks were nine times out of ten telling the truth.

"Don't worry, Zhijun brought me two bags of white noodles when he came, and I'll move them back now." Leaving such a sentence, Mei Zhizhong hurriedly went to the landlord's house next to him.

Hearing that he was here to move noodles, the landlord hurriedly called his son to help him send the noodles back.

Mei Zhijun, who lived in the landlord's house, heard Mei Zhizhong talking in the courtyard, and hurriedly opened the door and walked out, "What's the matter?" Why did you come early in the morning? ”

There was a place at home, so Mei Zhizhong hurriedly came to move noodles, Mei Zhijun was afraid that the landlord would misunderstand Mei Zhizhong was worried that he would swallow Mei Zhizhong's two bags of noodles.
