Ninety-eight

These days, the factory has been off work at six o'clock, because there has been no new order, listening to the workshop director Luo Yanqiu said, such a state can be maintained for ten days and eight days. In another ten days, we will have new orders, and not just one, but several. So there will be more than ten days of happy days.

When the order really comes, it will have to be overtime all the time.

That's why I have to go home early every day. Leaving work early like this should be undesirable for others, right? But for me, it's not a good thing. Because I don't want to go back to that home more and more, I feel that there is no warmth at all in that home, not only is there no warmth, but there is not even a little human touch. I'd rather work all the time than get home and see them sooner.

In the past, when Zhang Xu's mother didn't come to our house, she especially liked to come to my house, and I also liked to talk to her, although she was a little deaf, but she could still hear loud voices. But now that she has come to my house, I realize that it is far from being as simple as I thought.

Because Zhang Xu didn't want her to come over at that time, I insisted on letting her come over. I think that an old man, she doesn't get in the way of us when she comes, it's just that she cooks more for one person, and when she washes clothes, she washes one more person's clothes, and nothing else.

But it turned out that I was really naΓ―ve. Zhang Xu's mother came far from eating more than a trivial matter, she had more things to do.

I didn't feel it when I got off work late, but these days I leave work a little early, and everything comes out.

Because I can get home at seven o'clock, Zhang Xu and his mother don't cook and eat so early, they will wait for me to come back and eat. They don't just wait for me to come back to eat, they wait for me to come back to cook.

In the past, the dishes were all made by Zhang Xu, but now that Zhang Xu's mother is here, if I come back late, he still cooks, but if I come back early, he doesn't cook, but waits for me to come back to cook.

Thinking that Zhang Xu was cooking in the past, now I will do it. I didn't bother with him. Anyway, it's just a matter of more than ten days, because if I come back late, they can't wait for me to get home at nine o'clock, or even later to come home to cook.

Originally, when Zhang Xu and I were two people, we could cook anything. But Zhang Xu's mother came to eat the dishes I cooked, and she always said lightly. Later, although I added salt, she said lightly.

But Zhang Xu said that the food I made was not delicious. I didn't do it when I was angry, and let him do it, lest his mother say it was salty and light.

But Zhang Xu's cooking was salty. But she didn't dare to say it in front of Zhang Xu, and every time she chose to tell me when Zhang Xu was not in front of her. I didn't care about it at first, it was her son who made it anyway, and it had nothing to do with me.

But she said in front of me that Zhang Xu's dishes were salty. There is no way, I can only say to Zhang Xu, "Zhang Xu, you can cook lightly, your mother always says that the dishes are salty." "I said this with good intentions, because Zhang Xu's mother always said that it was uncomfortable to eat Zhang Xu's fried dishes, so I said those words to Zhang Xu.

But after Zhang Xu listened to my words, he said to me, "Wen Li, do you think my dishes are salty, or do your mother think my dishes are salty?" ”

As soon as I heard what Zhang Xu said, I immediately became angry, did he clearly distrust me? What did he think of me? Originally, I had good intentions, but when I heard him say this, it seemed like I had a lot to do.

So I said angrily, "You mean, I think your fried vegetables are salty?" And then deliberately said it was your mom who said it, right? ”

"Do you know in your heart that my mother never told me that my fried vegetables were salty? I've only heard her say that your fried vegetables are light. Now that you say that, it's not your idea whose idea? If you want to say salty, just say no to me? Why do you use my mother as a shield? You have a lot of eyes? ”

Hearing Zhang Xu say this, it's mine, isn't it? The more I thought about it, the more angry I felt, so I said to him, "Zhang Xu, if you say that, then let's ask in front of your mother, who said this?" Did I think your fried vegetables were salty? Or does your mom think your fried vegetables are salty? ”

"If you ask that, my mom won't say it, and she'll admit it." Zhang Xu said. I listened to Zhang Xu's words and didn't want to argue with him anymore. Because I know I can't talk about him at any time. So I'm a little less angry when I talk less.

After this happened, I didn't go back to eat at home anymore, I told Zhang Xu that I would eat in the factory and let him eat with his mother, so that it was salty or light, and I didn't have to take the blame.

But after this incident passed, something else happened. Because our factory does not always have holidays, we will have one day off during the holidays or sometimes two or three weeks. Then I can't help but eat at home during the holidays. At this time, I can do whatever I want, but I say that I don't want to cook. It's still Zhang Xu's fry, but no matter how salty or not, Zhang Xu's mother told me again, I didn't hear it, and I won't go to Zhang Xu's place anymore.

But the problem came again, because Zhang Xu's mother was here, it was inevitable that Zhang Xu's sisters would come to see the old man. But when they came, something happened. Especially Zhang Xu's second sister, told Zhang Xu that it was best to cook some soft rice for his mother.

Zhang Xu is like a pug in front of his second sister, and his second sister's fart is fragrant. So for the big holiday, he asked me to make porridge to eat. "Sister said, it's good for the old man to eat some porridge. The dish should also be lighter. ”

I didn't say anything else, I went to the market and bought cooked food and made my own rice. But Zhang Xu didn't say that it was better to eat porridge and eat light, and he didn't eat the porridge there, and he didn't eat the light dishes. Not only did he eat a large piece of meat, but he also sandwiched meat for his mother, but he didn't put a piece of meat into my bowl. I don't expect him to be able to pick me up either.

After eating, I said to him, "Didn't you say that it is better for the old man to eat porridge and eat light dishes?" Then why do you still put meat on your mother? ”

"Can't we eat meat and let her eat vegetables, right?"

"Let you say everything, if you say you make porridge during the big festival, you will make porridge, and if you say you will make vegetarian dishes, you will make vegetarian dishes. Do we have to have your sister decide what we eat now? It seems that every woman in this family counts when she talks, but everything I say is the same as fart. I vented my frustration.

Zhang Xu said to me as if he hadn't heard it. I continued, "This is a rule for me, I don't eat at home, I come back for some food during the holidays, you let me make porridge to eat, why don't you eat porridge usually?" Am I not making money or what? ”

I have never said these words since I got married, Zhang has always been picking this and that, I have never squeaked, and now it really makes me angry.

Not only these things, but also Zhang Xu's mother always said this and that in front of her daughter, no one boiled hot water for her, and she was washing clothes and telling her that it was late. But these dissatisfactions, she never complained in front of Zhang Xu, but always told her daughter in front of me. But she didn't say it by name.
