"Wealthy?" Rui Xue was picking a small tender cabbage, a little surprised, could it be that the old man of the Zhang family is still an admirer of communism, "What is this?" ”

Sister-in-law Zhang chopped a big bone with a kitchen knife, gritted her teeth and said, "The old man is saying that our family is rich now, but the second and third children are still extremely poor, so we want our family to divide the money we earn into three points, so that the three brothers will have a better life." ”

Rui Xue was a little dumbfounded when she heard it, that is, the early big collective in the previous life, or the ultimate ideal, was also more work, less work, less work, no work, this old man is powerful, he directly let one son do the work, and the other two just sit back and enjoy it.

"The old man takes it for granted, whose hard-earned money will be willing to share it casually."

"But it's not," Sister-in-law Zhang took a long scratch made of bamboo, reached into the bone stick and gently hooked out the bone marrow, put it into the men's small bowl, and left it for a while to cook it for Rui Xue to eat, since she was pregnant, she had to eat a small bowl every few days, it was said that it was good for the child in the belly, everyone didn't know how to make a good way, but as long as the bones were boiled, the bone marrow must be left out.

"My child's father is still afraid that the old man will be angry, he didn't dare to refuse directly, he was said to be stingy by the second and third children, and I wanted to come to the door immediately, slap them, they were our family's money is blown by the wind, if it weren't for you and Mr. Zhao's help, the days would be so hard. The second and third children are idle all day long, and they don't want to work steadily, and the old man doesn't teach them well, but lets us divide the money, it's really... Dotard! ”

Sister-in-law Zhang was very angry, but in the end, it was not good to be someone's daughter-in-law and say bad things about her father-in-law, and the last three words were almost muttered in her mouth.

Rui Xue was funny, seeing that she was almost busy, she pulled her to sit on the side of the board, drinking tea and resting, "Sister-in-law, the old man is a father, and naturally he loves his son in general, and now he is acting so strangely, it is nothing more than feeling sorry for the second and third families, and you husband and wife are far away from the old house, and rarely go back on weekdays, he doesn't know that you work hard, so that on the one hand, he is a poor son, and on the other hand, he is a brother who makes money easily, so he naturally has to be more partial." ”

Sister-in-law Zhang also sighed, "I just thought, our husband and wife rarely go back on weekdays, so I gave more money to make up for one or two, who would have thought that they would be greedy." ”

Rui Xue picked up a piece of taro cake, gave half of it to her, and said with a smile, "I originally wanted to entrust my sister-in-law's family with something, but my sister-in-law said this again, but we can solve it together." ”

"What do you want me to do?" Sister-in-law Zhang took a bite of the taro crisp, and when she heard her say this, she quickly took a sip of tea and went down, "Sister has something to say, as long as our family can do it, I promise to make it profitable for you." ”

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, it's not a big deal." Rui Xue carried the formalities and tea, and said slowly, "Mr. has a few friends who want to come to our village to live in our village for ten days and a half because of an important matter, but there is a wind and grass in our yard, and the whole village knows about it, and Mr. Those friends have avoided people's eyes, so it is a little difficult to settle." I originally wanted to talk to my sister-in-law and borrow your yard to live, but I didn't expect my sister-in-law to say this to the old man's mind again, but it was a coincidence. You and Brother Zhang take the children back to the old house to live temporarily, to help prepare for the old man's birthday, the old man will be happy, and then see you go out early and return late to work hard, maybe you will dispel the idea of getting rich, even if he still has this thought, seeing that your husband and wife are so filial, it will definitely be difficult to speak again. ”

The more sister-in-law Zhang listened, her eyes brightened, and she couldn't help but rejoice, "It's still a sister's idea, let the old man see that it's not easy to make our money, even if he still wants to speak, his mother-in-law will stop him." ”

Rui Xue nodded, "It just so happens that there are brocades suitable for making old people's clothes in the warehouse, with 10,000 character patterns and longevity patterns, and my sister-in-law will pick up two horses in a while, you will first prepare a decent set of clothes for the old man, and I will prepare a generous gift to send it on the right day, and the old man will gain face in front of his relatives and friends, and it will be even more difficult to speak." ”

"Then what's the matter," Sister-in-law Zhang waved her hand and refused, "Our old man has a birthday, how can I let my sister pay money, I was ready half a month early, so don't worry about it." ”

"Sister-in-law is polite to me, the brocade left and right is also moldy in the warehouse, and my sister-in-law helped to use it, so that I don't have to take it out every few days to see the wind, which is very troublesome, besides, this can be regarded as the silver for renting a house for half a month."

Sister-in-law Zhang smiled heartily, "There is only one girl in the world, and she will dislike the brocade to be an eyesore and occupy the space, okay, my sister-in-law will be greedy for your cheapness, when will Mr.'s friend come over, I will also clean up the house in advance, and I can't neglect the guests." ”

Ruixue got up and pulled her out to the warehouse, and said with a smile, "Amber went into the city to pick it up, maybe it will be tonight, I haven't been feeling well and groggy these days, and I forgot to tell my sister-in-law in advance." ”

"That's how it is when you're pregnant, forget it, forget it, there's no big deal, and we don't have anything to pick up at home, but it's done in half an hour, you just send the guests there." Sister-in-law Zhang never saw Ruixue's bad face, and she seemed to blame herself when she heard it, so she hurriedly rounded up the conversation.

Rui Xue remembered that when she just woke up, she had to be cared for by this warm-hearted and kind woman, and until today, although she is rich, this woman still treats her as a sister, and her heart is full of warmth.

When I entered the warehouse, I not only took two good brocades, but also turned over a box of good rouge gouache, and a set of silver jewelry, which must be accepted by Sister-in-law Zhang.

Sister-in-law Zhang's face was flushed, and she refused to accept it, in the eyes of their family, today's good life is given by the Zhao family, where can she receive such a generous gift, but Rui Xue ignored her obstruction, took a skein silver bracelet and put it on for her, and the hibiscus flower-shaped earrings and silver hairpins were also put on, and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law will treat this as a red envelope paid to you in advance, and it will be deducted at the end of the year, the whole village knows that you and Brother Zhang are helping us to do business as a husband and wife. It's time to earn a few more compliments for the girl. ”

Sister-in-law Zhang heard what she said interesting and reasonable, smiled happily, and didn't push it back, and took it happily.

She is a careful one, take a closer look, rare for a moment, then take it off and put it in her arms, after all, there are a few Yingzi in the workshop, let them see it, it will not be good if there is a grievance in life.

The two of them took the birthday gift, and Zhang's sister-in-law hugged the brocade and shouted that Zhang Dahe went home, and the family quickly packed up a few clothes and things, closed the door and went to the old house of the Zhang family in the west of the village, leaving a quiet courtyard for the Zhao family to entertain guests.

Ruixue finally arranged everything, unloaded that heart, a little unbearable tired, sat on the chaise longue under the laurel tree, unconsciously fell asleep, the old mother lightly went into the house and took a thin blanket to cover her, and then stayed aside to think about her thoughts.

Zhao Fengnian picked up Amber in the front yard, discussed a few words in a low voice, and then dispersed everyone to get off work, and when he returned to the backyard, he saw Rui Xue half-curled up in the chair, the orange sunset sun shone obliquely on her, there was a quiet and warm beauty, but her slight frowning revealed a lot of anxiety and worry that had not been expressed during the day.

Zhao Fengnian's heart was in great pain, and he couldn't wait to go back to Natong City immediately, and no longer think about any nurturing grace, and split the vicious woman in half, as long as his wife and children could not bear such fear...

The old lady saw that he was standing there motionless, so she took the sewing basket and got up, saluted, and then slowly walked to the stove to stir-fry and steam rice.

Zhao Fengnian stepped forward and gently picked up his wife, wanting to send her back to the house to sleep, but he didn't expect Ruixue to be alert, and immediately woke up, smelling the ink fragrance on his body, and instantly settled down again, rubbed his shoulder, and laughed in a low voice, "I've arranged everything here, what about Amber, but are you back?" ”

"I'm back, I invited six good hands, and I came here at the beginning of the time, you can sleep in peace, I'm here."

"Well," Rui Xue sighed lightly, listening to his strong and powerful heartbeat, and said, "In the past, in order to accumulate blessings for our children, anyone who could spare them had never been ruthless, this time, sir, don't be soft-hearted, there is a saying in my hometown, to be merciful to the enemy, is to be cruel to yourself, kill them all." ”

Zhao Fengnian nodded, leaned sideways against the door with his back, and then put his wife on the kang, then patted her and said, "Don't worry, they want to hurt you and the child, how can I not be a killer, sleep in peace, I'll go and give you steamed egg custard, and you can eat it when you wake up." ”

"Okay," Rui Xue's eyes slowly closed again, and when she was about to fall asleep, she vaguely remembered something again, "Remember to ask Amber to get the drug, it wants the most intense, and it can charm the elephant if it is spilled..."

What is an elephant? After living together for so long, Zhao Fengnian was used to the fresh words that came out of his wife's mouth from time to time, so he thought that it should be a large beast, so he responded, "Okay, let's sleep." ”

Ruixue wrinkled her little nose, and her sleepiness made her unable to think of anything anymore, so she simply let herself sink into sleep.

Zhao Fengnian sat silently for a long time, his fists clenched and clenched, his muscles flared up, and finally he slowly retracted his anger, kissed his beloved wife twice on the forehead, and then turned around and opened the door and went out.

When Ruixue woke up, she saw two candles lit in the house, and there seemed to be a faint sound of talking outside the door, guessing that it was dinner time, she cut her sideburns, went down to the ground, and wanted to wear shoes, but because of the increasingly swollen belly, she couldn't squat, so she had to pull the embroidered shoes, open the door and go out. ”

Zhao Fengnian frowned, wanting to reprimand this reckless child, but he felt reluctant, so he let her sit on the chair, and then squatted down to lift her shoes for her, complaining, "When you wake up, you call someone to serve, why did you come out by yourself?" ”
