Chapter 14: Men

I can't buy it when I go shopping, Lin Tong's excitement disappeared all of a sudden, and the person wilted, "Then forget about the two of us, but Xiao Nian is still a child, how can I buy a new dress for my child to wear during the New Year, and the child is looking forward to the New Year all year round!" ”

She has to calculate the money, and she can't always point to the man's salary, if she wants to do a small business, she has to have the capital in her hand!

The Xu family is not separated, and it is impossible for Xu Zhenhua's salary to be handed over to her.

This is written a lot in the novel, and she knows it very well.

Xu Zhenhua also wants to save face, hearing her say this, I feel that not even making a new dress for her is a shameless thing for her.

"Although the money is not much, it is enough to make a few clothes, so you can make a new one!"

Although Lin Tong had other ideas in his heart, he was quite happy to hear him say this.

"Okay, let my eldest brother and sister-in-law also see, the man I am looking for is right." Saying this made Lin Tong's face a little red, but he still looked at him with a generous smile.

Xu Zhenhua's face stiffened, and he said: "What kind of man are you looking for, how ugly this is, don't say it in the future." ”

A calculated marriage is not a good thing, he doesn't want to listen to these words, every time he hears it, he feels that he is an incompetent person, he was forced to marry one, and this one was forced to marry.

This feeling of not being in control of your own life is really.

Lin Tong stuck out his tongue, although Xu Zhenhua still had a straight face, Lin Tong felt that this man was not the kind of man with a bad temper, on the contrary, except for saying something unpleasant with the strength of wine at the beginning, since she hugged Xu Nian, the man's attitude towards her was not good, but it was not bad.

It may be for her sake of being good to her children, but she believes that this is a good start.

In winter, it was dark early, and the house was already dark, and Lin Tong habitually wanted to turn on the lights, only then did he remember that there was no electricity in the village now.

"Oh my God, what kind of place is this, what age is it and so poor, there is no electricity!" Lin Tong's heart was really cold, she remembered, her mother said that there was electricity in her hometown in the fifties and sixties, but now it is eighty years old, and there is no electricity in the village.

"When will we get the electricity here?" I heard that the town has electricity. Lin Tong couldn't help but ask, "It's too inconvenient to have no electricity." ”

"Haven't you come here after so many years without electricity!" Xu Zhenhua said casually: "It should be soon, when I came back, I heard from the classmates in the town that it is estimated that it will be able to pull the electricity this year." ”

The iron pillar of Xu's second family pushed the door in, stood in the door and didn't go inside, and shouted loudly: "Uncle, auntie, grandma called you to eat!" ”

After shouting, he turned around and ran, and without even closing the door, the cold wind blew in.

Xu Zhenhua stood up and looked at Lin Tong who was in a daze, "Call you, let's go eat." ”

Lin Tong really didn't react, the title of "auntie" really calls people so old. Her own eldest mother is in her fifties. As for the fact that her eldest mother was also very young when she was young, she just forgot about it.

In her previous life, she didn't even have a boyfriend, but when she got here, she directly became "mother, aunt", and the psychological gap was really big.

She thought to herself, she had to talk to this man at night, she said that she couldn't stay in this place, how could she live without electricity!

Lin Tong listlessly picked up Xu Nian and walked out, it was already dark outside, and when he arrived at the door, Xu Zhenhua reached out to carry the child over, but Xu Nian's little head twisted, "Mom hug." ”

This little broken child, thinking that he likes his mother, is really like who suffers.

The original owner is fortunate to have been doing farm work, which is healthy and energetic, and it is naturally inappropriate to hold such a big child.

"I'll hold it!"

Xu Zhenhua didn't insist, turned around and walked towards the main room, but still admonished, "Be careful of the threshold under your feet." ”

The threshold of this house is very high, and if you don't pay attention, you can mess yourself up.

Lin Tong was holding the child, the yard was very dark, she was afraid of falling, so she cautiously followed behind Xu Zhenhua, only to find that this man was a lot taller than herself.

This body is too short, looking at the height ratio of the two, it is one meter six.

This is simply petite and delicate for Lin Tong, who was already 1.72 meters in his previous life.

A kerosene lamp was lit in the kitchen, dim and dim, Xu Zhenhua nodded to the two younger siblings and went directly into the east room.

There is a kang table on the kang, on which is placed a basin of noodles over the water, a pot of cabbage vermicelli soup, and a few slices of fatty meat in it. A plate of fried shredded potatoes and a bowl of miso, a bowl of salted mustard strips, and, of course, a kerosene lamp, filled the table.

Xu Mingxi, the head of the family, sat in the kang and saw his eldest son come in, his eyes flashed with love, but he only nodded and said nothing.

Xu Zhenhua is used to the silence of the old man, and he himself is used to being silent in this family, and Xu's mother used to scold him, "It's exactly the same as your father, three sticks can't smash a fart." ”

Mother Xu sat next to her, there was still a space between her and the old man, and the children in front of her looked at the noodles with blank eyes, pointed to the empty position and said, "The boss and your daughter-in-law go to the kang to sit, you are next to your father, let your daughter-in-law sit here." ”

Xu Zhenhua was next to his father, then Xu's mother, and then Lin Tong.

Lin Tong saw that Xu Zhenhua didn't squeak, how could she not speak, so she called out generously, "Dad, Mom!" ”

Xu Mingxi gave face to the daughter-in-law who had just entered the door, and nodded, "Sit down, eldest daughter-in-law." ”

Xu Nian looked up at her new mother, then at her grandparents, and shouted in a small voice, "Grandpa, grandma." ”

Xu Mingxi nodded with a smile and didn't speak, but Mother Xu smiled and stretched out her hand, "Yo, look at Xiao Nian, this is different with a mother." As he spoke, he carried the child behind her, "Go play with your brothers!" ”

Lin Tong didn't really want to go on the kang, she couldn't stretch her legs straight when she sat like this, she put Xu Nian on the kang, and she was a little hesitant, "I'll help them." ”

Mother Xu said: "Today you are the new daughter-in-law, no need for you." Let's go to the kang, let your two younger siblings sit over there, just to take care of the children to eat. ”

This is very clear, the new daughter-in-law can not work today, and only the new daughter-in-law today.

Lin Tong had to take off his shoes and go to the kang, the kang was very hot, but so many people were on the kang, and they didn't wash their feet every day, on the kang, it should be said that the smell in this room was definitely not much better.

Her eyebrows wrinkled unconsciously, her little hand rubbed her nose, and seeing that everyone didn't smell it, her small mouth stirred, put down her hand, and sat down casually.
