After packing up her things, Lin Yongfang took out the clothes that Duoduo brought back to her from the wardrobe, chose a shirt with purple flowers on a white background, and put on a pair of dark blue new pants on the lower body, and then put on the black leather shoes that Duoduo bought for her, looked down at herself, and was very satisfied with this dress, and combed her short hair with her ears again, and pinned a pair of dark blue plastic hairpins on both sides of her ears, which were also brought back by Duoduo. It doesn't play a decorative role.

Although she is already the mother of five children, Lin Yongfang in the mirror does not look old at all, especially her skin, which is fair and delicate, and the years seem to favor her very much, and she has not left much vicissitudes on her face.

Lin Yongfang, who hadn't dressed herself like this for a long time, was stunned for a moment at herself in the mirror, put down the mirror, took the watch that Duoduo gave her, thought about it for a long time, took it off again, locked it in the cabinet, took three yuan and put it close to her, and put a bowl of lard, three pieces of pig's head meat and three pieces of mutton that were prepared yesterday, and then went out with the canvas bag with candy and snacks.

Walking on the road, I met people in the village, everyone saw her, and they all greeted her with bright eyes, and one of the sisters-in-law smiled and said, "Yo! Sister-in-law Lin, she is dressed up so well, and she has brought up so many things, so she is going back to her parents' house. ”

"Hmm." Lin Yongfang smiled embarrassedly.

Another sister-in-law quipped: "Is there any happy event in your family, or is your family's Cheng An finally figured it out, willing to treat your mother and son well, and bought you all new clothes?" I just saw that your Chen Meiling and two daughters are wearing new clothes, especially your family's Aiyun is dressed up, I can't recognize it, it's even more beautiful than the girls in the city. ”

Lin Yongfang smiled perfunctorily: "How can a country girl compare with a city child?" "Hurriedly walked forward, her mother's house is far away from her home, although there is a shuttle, but a ticket costs six cents, too expensive, Lin Yongfang usually walks to her mother's house, anyway, it is only two hours away, it is nothing for the countryman, but today she decided to be extravagant, take the shuttle back to her parents' house, so that it will only take half an hour to arrive, and the meat in her hand will not be bad.

What's more, her husband Tao Chengan is coming back today, and Lin Yongfang decided to leave as soon as she arrives at her parents' house to put down her things, so that she can rush home to prepare a hearty lunch.

At the thought of seeing her husband soon, Lin Yongfang couldn't stop her face from beating warmly.

Lin Yongfang stood on the road not far from the village for a few minutes, and a shuttle bus came, because of motion sickness, she chose a position by the window to sit down, so that the symptoms of motion sickness in the wind were better.

After a bumpy half an hour, Lin Yongfang got out of the car and walked a short distance to see Liuwu Village, where his mother's house was located.

Some villagers saw Lin Yongfang and greeted him cordially: "Yo, Aunt Lin went back to her parents' house to take a look, this dress is really good-looking." ”

In the countryside of Hubei, elders call girls who marry in the same village, and add the word "aunt" after her ranking to distinguish those who are not married.

"Yes, Uncle Shen, is your body still tough?" Lin Yongfang was a little shy to greet her, and kept walking towards her mother's house, the closer she got, the more excited she became, but more nervous.

Lin Yongfang is the eldest in her mother's family, generally in the countryside, as long as she is the boss, whether it is a boy or a girl, she has much more responsibilities than her younger brothers and sisters, so Lin Yongfang has been busy working at home and outside since she was a child, but no matter how hard she tries, she can't please her parents, because after her, her mother gave birth to three younger sisters to her in one go, and her parents were angry with her, thinking that her head was not opened well, so she was all sisters.

In the countryside, a family will be looked down upon if it does not have a son.

was told too much by her parents, Lin Yongfang felt that all this was her fault, in order to get the approval of her parents, she tried her best to do better, but in exchange for the indifference of her parents.

It was easy to survive until she was fifteen years old, because she was beautiful and naturally able to sing and dance, Lin Yongfang was selected into the town's cultural club, and with a double share of the full job, her parents' attitude towards her was barely better, and her parents finally gave birth to two sons, and her mood was much better.

In order to ask Lin Yongfang to help them raise that group of children, Lin Yongfang's parents kept her until she was twenty-one years old before asking a matchmaker to say goodbye to her, and a girl did not say kiss until she was twenty-one years old, which is rare in rural areas.

The Tao family picked Lin Yongfang back then, and the Lin family was actually picking a son-in-law, and they picked and chose Tao Chengan, because Lin Yongfang's parents heard that Tao Chengan was a national defense soldier in Beijing, and he received an allowance of 30 yuan a month, which was not only a huge amount of money in the countryside, but also the salary of the top cadre in the city, and there were rumors at that time that Tao Chengan would soon be promoted to company commander, and as the company commander of the national defense force, the allowance was probably at least 60 yuan!

Lin Yongfang's parents were originally ready to use their eldest daughter as a cash cow, and wanted to marry her to a family with good conditions, so that they could make up for their mother's family in the future.

There are still three daughters to be married and two children to be married in the family, the problem is that in addition to the eldest of the Lin family, the other daughters are too ordinary to marry into a rich family, but I am afraid that the bride price collected is not enough to buy a dowry, and the two sons have to marry and marry, which costs money.

Therefore, Lin Yongfang's parents hope that after Lin Yongfang marries Tao Chengan, he will take at least half of his allowance every month to subsidize them, so that they can greatly reduce their burden, and more importantly, they can also talk in front of others, and their daughters can marry well, so they can enjoy the blessing of marrying their daughters.

But people are not as good as heaven, Lin Yongfang has been obedient at home since he was a child, and he has developed a cowardly character, and he naturally can't be tough when he marries into his mother-in-law's family, no matter how much Tao Chengan's allowance is, not even a cent will fall into Lin Yongfang's hands, and the Lin family will not get it.

Lin Yongfang's parents felt that their daughter was useless, and they couldn't even coax their man's money, and secondly, they felt that they had lost, if they didn't marry Lin Yongfang, at least now they could have her two full-time jobs in the Cultural Club every month to supplement the family, so their attitude towards Lin Yongfang was extremely bad, even if Lin Yongfang brought a lot of things every time she went back to her parents' house, Mrs. Lin was afraid to give her a meal, and Lin Yongfang always went home hungry.
