Chapter Ninety-Three: Commentary
"It turns out that you, a woman, just hold a grudge against these, so you instigated your brother not to take my son?" Mrs. Meng was standing outside, and when she heard this, she couldn't hold back anymore and came in.
God knows how angry she was when she saw Meng Fu returning home with a big bag of things, because she asked Meng Gui to come back to do farm work before, which was a helpless thing, after all, she was afraid that Zhang Guiqin would abuse her.
Meng Gui can't work to earn money, all her hopes fall on Meng Fu, who knows that now it's like this, where can she use the money in the future?
Wu Qingmei watched Mrs. Meng walk in, followed by Zhang Guiqin and Meng Xiaoping, and got up a little reluctantly, wanting to drive everyone outside, "If you have something to say, come out and let everyone judge it." ”
She was afraid that when Mrs. Meng stayed in the house, she would be too angry and smash her things, Wu Qingmei had no place to cry at that time, after all, Mrs. Meng's temperament could not compensate her.
That's why I figured out Mrs. Meng's idea of wanting to destroy her image in front of others, and deliberately said so.
Sure enough, Mrs. Meng came out with her and shouted, "Am I still afraid that people will know?" Just let people know how ruthless and unrighteous you are as a woman. ”
"Am I ruthless and unjust? It's really laughing off your big teeth," Wu Qingmei sneered, "Why don't you go back and ask your son, why can't you get a job after studying for so long?" ”
Soon after learning that she and Meng Gui divorced, Wu Qingbai stopped taking Meng Fu with her, so for several months now, Meng Fu has actually worked alone.
When I came back this time, I think it was because the money ran out, so I had to come back, of course, I also hoped that Mrs. Meng and Meng Gui could help him come to her together, so that Wu Qingbai could continue to help him.
It's just that it's ridiculous that he has such an idea.
Although Zhang Guiqin doesn't look down on Meng Fu, but in the end he is his own man, and when he hears Wu Qingmei dare to belittle him, he naturally can't listen to it, "He can't get a job, isn't it because your brother refuses to teach him with his heart?" If you really want to teach him, why can't you get a job after studying for so long? ”
She also wanted to say that she was originally busy at home all day long, and she had to suffer from Mrs. Meng's idleness from time to time, and her life was not easy at all.
The only hope in life is that when Meng Fu comes back from the New Year's holiday, he can secretly give her a little money, even if it is under the banner of Meng Xiaorong, Zhang Guiqin can make her pocket bulge a little bit.
But when she came back this time, she didn't say a penny of money, and she fell outside and owed debts, and asked her to take the money out to pay off his debts, how could Zhang Guiqin be willing?
Wu Qingmei knew that she couldn't make sense with them one by one, and she didn't bother to say it, "You guys go back, anyway, it's impossible for me to go to my brother for help, I have nothing to do with you anymore." ”
At this time, she was most glad that she had decided before and divorced Meng Gui straightforwardly, otherwise she would definitely be forced by them to do what she didn't want to do at this time.
Mrs. Meng was about to be angry, she looked at the people around her, and cried, "You woman, no matter how you say that Meng Fu is also your child's uncle, those are all from the Meng family, why are you so ruthless?" ”
Wu Qingmei was unmoved, she didn't bother to take care of them, if it wasn't for the fact that the door of the thatched house was not strong enough, she really wanted to enter the door directly, whatever they scolded outside.
"You have hidden so much private money yourself, look at what you eat, and you are buying chickens and pigs when you divide your family, why is your heart so black?"
Zhang Guiqin waited for Mrs. Meng to finish speaking, and then said, there are so many things in her heart, she doesn't vomit or feel unhappy.
In this matter, they didn't confront Wu Qingmei face to face, but they often scolded a few words resentfully after hearing people at home say what Wu Qingmei bought and used.
Now I say it, it's really because Zhang Guiqin feels unfair, she has never found out that Wu Qingmei looks honest and wooden, and she is the one in the family who is the best at stealing private money.
The money that should have been handed over to the public middle school was put into her own pocket, so how could Zhang Guiqin not care at all?
Wu Qingmei wanted to laugh even more when she heard this, when she was in the Meng family, all the money earned by Meng Gui's work was handed over to Mrs. Meng, without going through her hands at all, and she couldn't touch a penny all year round, where could she hide the private money?
Except that when she sometimes went back to her parents' house, her mother would secretly stuff her with a few yuan when she saw that she was having a pitiful life, but if she didn't do that, she had to hand it over to Mrs. Meng?
But after thinking about it, she couldn't deny it directly, otherwise the matter would have spread, and she would definitely know that the food and clothing at home were all bought by Meng Youyou, and then others would maliciously speculate about how Meng Youyou made money.
Wu Qingmei would rather be wronged than say a word about Meng Youyou's badness, so she didn't admit it but didn't deny it, but said, "Do you dare to swear in front of your mother-in-law that you have never hidden private money?" ”
Zhang Guiqin's neck was stiff, and she was naturally reluctant to swear by her words, but Mrs. Meng's suspicious gaze fell on her, which made her a little overwhelmed, and she couldn't help but scold the dead old woman in her heart.
"You don't have anything to talk about me, we are talking about your brother today," Zhang Guiqin pulled the topic back again, also reminding Mrs. Meng.
Mrs. Meng snorted, thinking that she would not talk about Zhang Guiqin for the time being, there would be opportunities in the future, and what she was anxious about was the things in front of her, so she turned her head sideways and looked at Meng Xiaoping, who understood.
Meng Xiaoping rubbed her eyes, took a few steps forward and cried, "Second aunt, my dad can't earn money without work, and there is still a large family waiting to eat at home, please have a lot of them, help us." ”
Although this was discussed at home in advance, she only felt extremely embarrassed to say it in front of so many people at this time, so her voice became quieter and quieter.
Wu Qingmei frowned, she didn't like Mrs. Meng and Zhang Guiqin and others, but she didn't have too deep resentment towards Meng Xiaoping and Meng Xiaorong, in her heart, they were all children in the end.
It's just that when he thought of his two daughters, he still said ruthlessly, "If you can't do carpentry, you can still do farm work to earn work, and you can also support you, isn't every family in our village like this?" ”
If I listened to Mrs. Meng and Zhang Guiqin before, I thought that everyone was a relative, and it was nothing to help if I could, but now I feel that what Wu Qingmei said makes sense.
Indeed, every family is staying in the village to do farm work and earn labor, why can't Meng Fu do it? Thinking of the time when Meng Fu was doing farm work in the past, fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, it is no wonder that Wu Qingmei's younger brother is unwilling to take him anymore.
After thinking about it, she suddenly felt that Mrs. Meng was unreasonable, and they all opened their mouths to persuade her to forget it, and she went back, why did she have to go to the city to do carpentry?
Mrs. Meng was even more angry when she saw this, thinking that Meng Xiaoping would not pretend to be weak, if she could cry and say those words, the effect would definitely be better, maybe Wu Qingmei would agree?
Mrs. Meng angrily shook her face and returned home, raised her hand and slapped Meng Xiaoping, Meng Xiaoping couldn't dodge and was beaten.
"Milk ......" Meng Xiaoping is too aggrieved, what did she do?
Zhang Guiqin is also angry in her heart, but it is just for Wu Qingmei, not for her own daughter, although she doesn't want to see her beaten, but she is beaten, crying and crying will only make people upset, and she is too lazy to take care of her.
When Meng Fu saw their expressions, they were all depressed, and he knew that the matter must not have been done, and he was not happy, "I said Meng Gui, that's your mother-in-law, why are you useless at all?" ”
Even if they are divorced, they have slept in the same bed for one or two decades, and they can't do this little thing.
If it weren't for Mrs. Meng and Zhang Guiqin going with them, otherwise he would definitely suspect that Meng Gui didn't tell Wu Qingmei about this matter properly, and he couldn't do it if he didn't do it well.
"That woman, how can ordinary people stand it?" Mrs. Meng snorted coldly, "It must have been too well disguised in front of us before, so we didn't see her true face." ”
Speaking of this, he remembered what Wu Qingmei said just now, and said, "Zhang Guiqin, did you also secretly hide money?" ”
Money is her lifeblood, first Wu Qingmei secretly took a lot of money, if Zhang Guiqin hides it again, then how much money will she have to lose before and after.
The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable Mrs. Meng felt in her heart.
"Mom, how can I have any money?" Zhang Guiqin hurriedly denied it.
She didn't admit it just now, how could she admit it now, she knew better than anyone else that if she relented, she didn't have to wait until tomorrow, but she was afraid that the money would go into Mrs. Meng's pocket tonight.
"By the way, I forgot to say it, Meng Fu said that he borrowed eight yuan from others outside, and promised to pay it back in a few days," Zhang Guiqin quickly changed the topic and said, "Mom, look at this ......"
Mrs. Meng's mouth was furled, "How can I have any money?" ”
It cost fifty yuan for Meng Youyou's retirement, and another fifty yuan for Meng Xiaoping to learn the craft, adding up to a full hundred yuan, and he has not received any money in the past few months, only to take it out.
"Speaking of which, I still remember," Mrs. Meng didn't want to continue the topic, so she said, "Didn't you say that you went to learn how to cut clothes in August?" Why are you still at home in September now? ”
The money was handed over, and the edges of the clothes were not touched.
As soon as he finished saying this, the room full of people immediately looked at Meng Gui, he raised his head in hindsight, and said tentatively, "I'll ask tomorrow?" ”
He was busy working in the fields every day during this time, where did he have time to go to the county seat to ask about this?
"If you want to go, it's best to go before you go to work, or after you get off work, so as not to delay earning your work," Mrs. Meng said.
Now the two sons can't earn money one by one, and the only way left is to earn more work and more food, otherwise she will have to drink the northwest wind sooner or later.
Meng Gui nodded and did not speak again.
