013 Grocery shopping
Yuan Niang didn't say a word, and silently swallowed all the meat and porridge into her stomach.
Lu Wenping glared at Hua Ronghua again and motioned for her to shut up.
Although there were several quarrels, the meal was finally finished.
When the table was about to disperse, Jiang Lan suddenly spoke, "Old lady, there is not much salt at home, do you want to buy some more." ”
As soon as she heard that it would cost another money, Mrs. Lu's distressed face twitched, "It's not pickles, why is it so waste salt?" Did you steal it? ”
"I don't." Jiang Lan was taken aback, and hurriedly waved her hand, "I eat and live at home, where can I put it if I steal it?" ”
Aunt He listened to the words on the side, "It's almost time to buy it, and the current salt was bought back a month and a half ago!" ”
"Then you'll go buy it again." Mrs. Lu said casually.
"This ......" Aunt He looked at Hua Ronghua hesitantly and replied, "Then this money for buying vegetables?" ”
Mrs. Lu pretended not to understand, "If you want to buy it, you can buy it, where is so much nonsense!" ”
Hua Ronghua wanted to throw up his sleeves and go back to the house, but suddenly remembered that if he wanted to go out again, he might be able to use an excuse to buy vegetables, so he said: "Let me buy vegetables and take the money." ”
"We didn't say let you buy it, we said let Aunt He buy it." Mrs. Lu began to pretend to be confused.
"Aunt He won't buy you things out of her own pocket! Don't believe me, ask her if she's willing to help you advance money? Hua Ronghua said directly.
"This ......" Aunt He smiled embarrassedly, complaining in her heart why the lady pulled herself in.
"Pick #Suo¥!" Mrs. Lu scolded angrily.
Sister-in-law Fang looked left and right, smiled suddenly, stepped forward and whispered in Mrs. Lu's ear: "If you want me to say, old lady, you agree to let the lady go grocery shopping." ”
Without waiting for Mrs. Lu to get angry, she continued: "Didn't you do this before? Give her a few pennies to buy meat and salt, isn't it worse for her to add it herself? ”
The others couldn't hear what Sister-in-law Fang said, but they obviously saw that Mrs. Lu's face softened, and even a smile appeared on her lips, but that smile looked a little thief.
Mrs. Lu nodded and said to Hua Ronghua: "Okay, then let you buy vegetables and come to my house to withdraw money in a while." ”
This time it was Hua Ronghua's turn to be surprised, what did this sister-in-law say? made Mrs. Lu change her mind so quickly!
In fact, this trick was also commonly used by Mrs. Lu before, Hua Niang was bored at home and always wanted to go shopping, at first Mrs. Lu blocked left and right, but since she received the gift that Hua Niang brought back from shopping, Mrs. Lu changed her attitude, and every time Hua Niang went out, she would let her bring something back.
Hua Niang has been used to spending a lot since she was a child, and she doesn't care about this money at all, so she can always satisfy Mrs. Lu. It's just that since Jiang Lan entered the door, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law only cared about quarreling and fighting, and basically didn't go out to buy things, and when Hua Ronghua was about to go out the day before yesterday, Mrs. Lu only cared about gambling and stopped the yin, and she didn't think of this stubble at all.
Thinking of Mrs. Lu's reason why she was willing to let her go out, Hua Ronghua was also angry, but she was able to go out anyway, anyway, when she had a house and moved out, these people couldn't take advantage of themselves if they wanted to!
When he got the money, Hua Ronghua almost cursed, so he gave five cents, and then let himself buy a pound of salt? !
Glancing at Mrs. Lu, Hua Ronghua threw up his sleeves and left.
Seeing this, Lu Wenping quietly followed out, wanting to appease the lady for a few words, and he would repay the money when he won the move in the future.
"Sir!"
As soon as I walked to the door of the West Wing, I ran into Jiang Lan who came back from the kitchen.
Jiang Lan looked overjoyed, "Is the master here to pick up Lan'er?" ”
"Uh......" Lu Wenping was embarrassed to say no, and was half-dragged back to his room by Jiang Lan.
Early the next morning, Hua Ronghua went out, and Aunt He also went out.
"What are you doing?" Hua Ronghua asked strangely.
"I'm going to pick up things with my lady!"
"As long as the salt of five cents, I won't be able to lift it, so you don't have to follow." Hua Ronghua said in her heart, if you go, how can I buy a house, today she brought five hundred taels of silver tickets.
Aunt He was stunned, "It's ......"
Hua Ronghua was a little impatient, "I really don't have to follow, go back and wash the clothes, take advantage of the good sun, the quilt is dry, it's a little damp." After speaking, regardless of whether Aunt He agreed or not, she walked towards the market alone.
"Hey, lady......" Aunt He who was left behind was a little unwilling, she used to follow the lady to the street, the lady let go of her hands, and she could get a lot of things every time! Why didn't the lady bring herself this time!
"I said Sister-in-law He, the lady doesn't need you to work with you, and cleaned up the bowls on the table. Don't do any work around the lady every day! Sister-in-law Fang couldn't help but feel sorry when she saw Aunt He being left behind in the gate, she had already seen her unpleasant.
Aunt He cleared her throat, "Master Hua said that I just need to serve the lady, and I don't have to worry about other things!" ”
"Whew!" Mrs. Lu, who had just come out of the dining hall, stopped doing it, and spit directly in the direction of Aunt He, "You are just an object like a cow and a horse, and you dare to pick and choose three or four here, let you do the work, and then dare to push and drag it and go back to Lao Hua's house for me!" I know that the people brought by the waste lady are not good things! ”
"The old lady can't cure that prodigal daughter-in-law, and she can't control your old thing? Hurry up and clean up my house, or get out of here! Mrs. Lu's anger was poured on Aunt He's head.
Aunt He felt that she had died unjustly, and she was not wronged by the flying snow in June, "Master! With tears in his eyes, he looked aggrievedly at Lu Wenping, who was about to go to the office, and wanted the head of the family to speak for him.
Although Lu Wenping was also dissatisfied with Hua Ronghua going to the street alone, he was even more dissatisfied with Aunt He's disrespect to his mother, "If you let you clean up, you will clean up, didn't your father-in-law originally let you help her mother do housework?" ”
"......"
"But what? You're still thinking of you as a little girl like a shallot! Shed two tears to provoke the gentlemen to help you out? You shameless old thing, what kind of slave you have is what kind of master! Mrs. Lu caught Aunt He, who didn't dare to fight back, and scolded happily.
Although this work should be done by herself, but under the instructions of Sister-in-law Fang, who is also a servant woman, and under the abuse of the old lady, Aunt He felt wronged to death, especially when she was scolded, Sister-in-law Fang and Jiang Lan were watching the excitement from the sidelines.
For a while, Aunt He's tears crackled and fell, and she had to work under the supervision of everyone.
The more Lu Wenping looked at it, the more troubled he became, and he only felt that there was no quiet moment at home, so he told Mrs. Lu that he was going to go to the government and left home.
Speaking of Hua Ronghua, she quickly came to the county East Street along the road that Lu Wenping took her that day.
There are many shops on both sides of the street, selling cloth and tea, selling rouge and gouache, pen and ink shops, pastry shops, jewelry shops, guys greeting customers at the door of the store, and hawkers on the street.
