Chapter 337: I see
Wang Yazhi finally decided to sell small dried fish, and this time she would not hand over the money she earned to her mother-in-law for safekeeping.
Usually Kou Xi will accompany her to run the market when she has time, and this so-called "time" is the three days when Hongqi Town catches up with the market every month.
Hongqi Town now has a very fixed time to catch the market, and the 5th, 15th, and 25th of each month are fixed for three days.
Kou Xi didn't follow the trend and moved the haberdashery at home to sell. Most people don't have oil, salt, sauce and vinegar at home, and they won't really go to buy it until they catch up with the market. What's more, she sells more student supplies at home, including all kinds of homework books and stationery. There are also a wide range of toys such as beautiful shuttlecocks and leather balls. Not to mention the dazzling array of snacks, it has become a paradise for children in the neighborhood.
However, rural people have a habit of not going to the street to buy things a day or two before or after the market. In the past, Kou Xi had figured out such a rule, unless it was the most necessary things in daily life, such as salt, monosodium glutamate, sugar, homework books, which must be bought, they could generally buy them together when they were in the market.
Therefore, the 4th, 5th, 14th, 15th, 24th, and 25th of each month are the days when Kou Xi and Wang Yazhi run the market.
Sometimes Kou Xi and Wang Yazhi can't come back that day, and they have to stay outside for the night, and the old mother-in-law's face will be very ugly. Fortunately, sometimes Wang Yazhi will say that it is because of Kou Dewang by her side, so the two of them dare to be so bold.
However, Lao Yu's mother-in-law knows that it is impossible to have Kou Dewang follow every time. But Yu Daming was unwilling to endure that hardship, and she was reluctant to earn that money, so she could only be angry and annoyed, but she was reluctant to stop it.
Wang Yazhi goes out every few days to run the market to deliver deliveries, although the benefits are not as good as at the beginning, but she can also have an income of nearly 120 or 30 yuan per month. And when she doesn't usually go out, she is not lazy at home, and always cleans up the house and outside. Every time I come back from outside, I will buy some big bones or buy a fish for my daughter's pocket.
Seeing that she is now generous, the old mother-in-law is not feeling good in her heart. Not to mention, it's enough to buy some meat to eat when you come back every week. Wang Yazhi didn't hand over the money she made to her, she held it in her hands, which was to be distracted from this family.
After two days of figuring out how to ask Wang Yazhi for money, I didn't know how to speak. I saw someone coming to the door and asking Lao Yu's mother-in-law to borrow money. That person was none other than an old sister with whom she had been friends for many years. Her man's surname is Li, and she was older than her mother-in-law in her early years, thanks to her help when her man died. When there was work in the field, she beckoned the men of the family to help her. I don't want her to cook, and after finishing the work, the men and women of the family go back to their own house to eat. I'm afraid that they will eat up the rations of the two of them, and in the winter they will be hungry. Usually, if there is steamed buns at home, I will also bring two of them.
She came to borrow money today, and there must be really no way.
"Our family wants to buy a store in the market and let my old son go out and do something. Mrs. Li said directly: "What are the conditions of our family, you know the eldest sister." There are many sons, few houses, and a bride price for marrying a daughter-in-law. I discussed with my family and bought a store for my old son to let them go out. The boss will follow us, and in the future, this old house will be given to the boss. The second child was a son-in-law at the beginning, and now he is doing well in Xiaohexi, so we don't have to worry about it. When the third child got married, he didn't ask for a bride price, but he wanted a house. ”
She sighed and said with a bitter face: "Last year, I can be regarded as having paid off the famine when the third child got married, and I can be regarded as relieved when I think about it." I saved up more money and built a house in two years. I didn't think about it, the old daughter-in-law made it at home all day long. ”
"I'll buy it for you!" Old Yu's mother-in-law disagreed: "Old sister, I didn't say you, your temper is too soft." Your family has four daughters-in-law, whoever agrees to it all of a sudden, then this day will not be over!"
"What can you do, who makes the family poor! These four sons are like each other, you can't do any of them. The second kid is still a worry-free child, and we never have to worry about it. Ay..... It's useless for us, otherwise we can let our son go out and be an aunt for others!" When she thought that the son she raised went to someone else's house to work for others, listening to her father-in-law's mercy, she was more sad than slapping her.
"Then I bought it in this store, what don't the eldest and the third say to the third?" Old Yu doesn't believe it, even if the sons are humble to each other, do the daughters-in-law agree?
"What is there to say? The store house is not expensive, and it is similar to buying a three-room big tiled house outside. We don't mean to buy a big one, just buy a thirty or forty square meters. Mrs. Li explained: "When the third child got married, she bought a house, and our house will be given to the eldest in the future, and then we will buy a small store for the eldest son." It's always fair to have a house for a family!"
The four sons of the family removed the one who was the son-in-law, and the other three were properly arranged. Think about yourself again, there is such a baby bump in total, and I am almost thirty years old and still nested in this small earthen house.
"So I'm here to borrow a thousand yuan from you!" Old Mrs. Li showed an embarrassed smile: "I know it's not easy for you to save some money, and your family hasn't built a house yet." But I really can't help it, I borrow everything I should borrow. ”
"I don't borrow money in vain, I take money from you. A share of profit, is it okay?" has said that the old mother-in-law in the past and the interest of today cannot be borrowed.
"You said I lent you the money, the ..... of my family" Speaking of this, the old Yu mother-in-law directly covered her mouth and whispered: "You're going to fight with me again!"
"Isn't your family selling dried fish very well this year, I still want to ask you why you don't build a house when you have money in your pocket. You built this house when you got married, and it leaked when it rained, so what are you waiting for?" After Mrs. Li finished saying this, she muttered in annoyance: "Look at what I said, if you build a house, who will help me with this sad matter!"
"The unconscious one in our family is also clamoring to build a house every day!" Old Yu mother-in-law looked unhappy with a straight face: "I just made money and thought about spending it, and I can't go to heaven in the future? Besides, how long has it been since she gave birth to a girl, and she hasn't thought about having another boy while she is young, what are you waiting for?" ”
"Oh, mom!" Old Mrs. Li frowned: "Do you still want a second child?"
"A man and a woman are just right!" Old Yu's mother-in-law smiled: "In fact, it is best to give birth to three, two girls and a child, which can help the foil." ”
"Then you have to be fined!" Old Mrs. Li frowned: "I haven't been very strict in the past two years, but I have to pay some money!"
That's why she holds on to the money and refuses to let go, in case the money is used to build a house and do business, her eldest grandson will be gone!
