Chapter 393: Our Mother

"Boss? Isn't my boss Feng Xi? Bai Xiaoling came to her senses, "Is there anything she can't say about her private affairs?" ”

"Uh......" Yan Xin was stunned for a moment, "What I mean is to pay attention to confidentiality, don't say some things that are not suitable to say, it is to let you have that sense of confidentiality, so as not to offend people by accident, and even violate relevant laws and regulations, not that she has anything that cannot be said, these are two different things." ”

Bai Xiaoling sighed, a little disappointed: "That's it...... I thought you knew something about her that few people knew......"

Yan Xin reprimanded her: "Girls don't gossip so much, don't inquire about things that shouldn't be inquired about, and don't know about things that shouldn't be understood." ”

"Brother, you're wrong about this," Bai Xiaoling said with a smile, "Why do you say those gossiping people are said to be gossip?" Isn't it because our women like to inquire about these things? This is our natural instinct as a woman. ”

"But that's not a good habit, saying anything will bring you disaster." Yan Xin said.

Seeing that he was serious, Bai Xiaoling was embarrassed to smile, and said to him with a serious expression: "Brother, don't worry, I won't talk nonsense, even if I know something, I won't say anything." ”

Yan Xin said: "You must remember that this can't just be lip service. ”

Bai Xiaoling raised a hand to him and made an oath-taking gesture: "Brother, believe me, I promise not to talk nonsense." ”

Yan Xin didn't believe it very much, but he didn't have anything better to do.

Everything that should be said has been said, if Bai Xiaoling is still talking nonsense, then there is nothing he can do.

Moving all those things in the trunk to his home, he was going to park his car in the parking garage.

At the beginning, the cottage had a parking garage that could be used for two cars.

But after a look at the garage, I was very depressed and dismissed this idea.

Because it's full of stuff.

The parking garage was divided into two rooms, but both were fully stocked.

One room was stacked with sacks of cotton, and another was piled with crackling firewood.

In addition, some farm tools were put in.

The Yan family does not have much land to grow cotton, that is, more than one acre, and it is impossible to pile so much.

Most of them are from Bai Xiaoling's house.

Their family lives under the river embankment, and the terrain is relatively gentle, which is more suitable for making cotton.

This time, the mother and daughter moved over, and the house over there was given to the people of the Bai family, and the land over there was also given to the people of the Bai family, but the grain and cotton grown in the field were brought over, as well as the furniture and farm tools at home.

The two families became one family, but not just two people, but also those valuable and worthless things.

Yan Xin saw that the garage was full of stuffed, and he was quite helpless, so he could only pull over and try not to get in the way of others.

Although he is very rich now and doesn't care about the little things stuffed in the garage, he can't say that he threw them away.

Fortunately, after the merger of the two families, the Bai family's fields were thrown out, and now the land of the two families is planted, and they are not so tired.

He thought that at the right time, he should improve his economic strength in front of them, so that they can rest assured about the future and not work so hard.

Needless to say, the crackling ones are his father's masterpieces, and when he has nothing to do, he likes to crack firewood, and then bundle them up one by one and pile them up.

In the past, it was stacked under the eaves, but when it rained, it would get wet, but now with such a garage, it is simply placed in the garage, and it does not rain.

This can't be blamed on his father, mainly because of Yan Xin himself, obviously it's his own car, he has to say that he borrowed the boss's car, in his father's heart, there is no car, there is no car to get a garage there, it's a bit of a waste, it's good to put some sundries.

Yan Xin actually didn't want his father to continue burning firewood.

I built a small villa and continued to burn firewood, which is a bit inexplicable.

But he was reluctant to let his father burn coal, let alone burn gas, and Yan Xin was still a little uneasy.

Obviously, there is a kitchen in the villa, but in order to prevent the villa from being blackened by the fireworks generated by the firewood, an independent kitchen was built next to the villa.

In this way, the oil smoke will not smoke into the home, but it will look ugly on the outside.

Although this villa is still the most beautiful house in the village, every time Yan Xin sees it, he feels quite awkward.

But there is no way, this house is mainly lived in by his father, and the kitchen is also used by his father, so it can only match his father's living habits.

Now I can only hope that Wu Xiuhong can think a little more openly, not be as frugal as his father, be willing to give up a little, and live a better life.

As for his father's thrifty habit, even if he sends 10,000 children and 8,000 a month, his father is reluctant to use it himself, and will only save it for him to marry his daughter-in-law in the future.

Even if he marries a daughter-in-law, he will save it for him to raise children in the future.

A person who has been poor all his life and has been frugal all his life, it is difficult to change his concept.

Although Wu Xiuhong is also a well-known diligent and thrifty housekeeper in the village, it is not to the extent of his father.

And at that time, there were many unavoidable difficulties in running a thrifty house, mainly to provide for a daughter to go to school, and if you were not diligent and thrifty, you would not be able to afford it.

Now that I don't have that kind of burden, and the conditions at home are relaxed, maybe I won't be so economical.

The concept can't be changed for a while, as long as they can make sure that the conditions at home are very good, they can slowly change it.

Wu Xiuhong and Bai Xiaoling moved over some time ago.

It was not easy to move this house, according to Bai Xiaoling, it took two or three days just to pull those things over.

I was reluctant to call a car to pull it, so I used a board cart to pull it, and I rented a cow as a coolie.

If it had been her mother's wishes, it would have been another day — and her mother would have wanted to bring the bed and wardrobe.

This was still dissuaded by Bai Xiaoling - the Yan family has beds in every bedroom, and they are all new beds, as well as new wardrobes, there is no need to get those things that have been used for one or two decades.

And there's no place to put it when you get it.

It might as well be given to those in need.

In the end, it was not given to others in vain, but it was still sold by her mother, although it didn't sell for much, but it was a little better than giving it away for nothing.

Her mother's full set of tools for making tofu had been pulled over and placed in the kitchen.

Tables and chairs were also brought, even pots and pans were brought over - in fact, those were not too necessary, but the two old ones just couldn't see that kind of waste, and there was no way.

Bai Xiaoling was also a little speechless about this.

Yan Xin was a little curious: "I have brought everything to make tofu, does your mother still want to make tofu and sell it?" ”

"What's your mother, my mother, that's our mother." Bai Xiaoling corrected him.

Then he said: "I also asked her, I said that life is not so unbearable now, there is no need to make tofu to sell, our mother said, she has not thought about selling tofu for the time being, bring these things over, just think about when you want to eat, make a little by yourself." And then it's really idle, and you can get a little bit to sell. ”

If you don't want to make tofu for sale for the time being, that's fine.

Making tofu to sell by herself is a hard job, and Yan Xin doesn't want this stepmother to do such a thing.

It's not that he feels sorry for his stepmother.

Frankly speaking, although Yan Xin is doing quite well in terms of face, in his heart, the mother and daughter are both outsiders, and he doesn't care how his life is.

He just didn't want his dad to suffer this sin.

It's hard work to make tofu, and it's even harder to make tofu alone, and when someone helps, you will definitely find someone to help.

Even Bai Xiaoling is no longer studying, but she has to help her mother make tofu.

His father and Wu Xiuhong got married, that is, two people, when the wife gets up before dawn to work, it is impossible for the husband to continue to sleep there, how can he get up to help, let alone do the heaviest and most tiring work.

That's not good.

If you want to let his father live a more leisurely life, you must let this stepmother live a more leisurely life, and you must let Bai Xiaoling, a half-sister, also live a good life.

If one person is unhappy, then everyone will not be happy.

Yan Xin still understands this truth.

The so-called idle to do to make tofu to sell, that is just a kind of rhetoric.

If there is a real day, it will only be a lack of money in hand, and you will have to rely on this to make money.

Yan Xin decided that this time he had to raise his salary in front of his father, and then send a little money every month to them for pocket money, so as not to let them feel that they were not running out of money.

It's okay to make it once in a while, but if you make a little bit and eat it yourself, you can eat more at ease.

One thing to say, the tofu made by this stepmother is still quite good, and it is better than the ones sold outside.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, chatting with Bai Xiaoling about what happened at home during this period of time, and asked which relatives had been invited over.

They are going to form a new family, everyone in the village knows it, and the relatives who should know it also know, Yan's father also took the mother and daughter to a few relatives, and Bai Xiaoling basically knew those people.

If you don't know it, you don't need to know it.

In the process of chatting, Bai Xiaoling didn't stop much, just eating snacks.

Yan Xin couldn't help but say to her: "It's not good to eat too many snacks, girls should pay attention to maintaining their body shape, but don't get fat." ”

Bai Xiaoling laughed in surprise: "How can there be enough snacks for me to eat fat?" That is, you came back and brought food, and I usually don't have money to buy snacks to eat. Now my mother gives me a little money, and I use it to pay for the phone bill. ”

With a mobile phone, the mobile phone is a fixed consumer item.

Although the monthly consumption on the mobile phone is only a few dozen yuan, her monthly pocket money is only a few dozen yuan.

In order to keep this mobile phone, she became penniless.

Yan Xin also laughed: "It's so pitiful! But it doesn't matter, when they are done with this, you can go to work in the capital, and then you will earn more money alone than the two of them, and spend as much as you earn. ”

Bai Xiaoling had a lollipop in her mouth, and her eyes were resentful:

"How can you earn as much as you want? Before I could go out to find a job, my mother told me and asked me to transfer half of my salary to her. ”

"Why?" Yan Xin was taken aback.

"She said I couldn't save the money and wanted to help me save it for a dowry." Bai Xiaoling said depressedly, "Brother, you said that I am also beautiful, do I still have to pay a dowry at home to be able to get married?" It's just an excuse to steal my hard-earned money! Hmph, I am such a beautiful daughter, I can earn her a lot of money for the bride price, and I also aim at my salary, I think she is more exploitative than the capitalists. ”

It's not that there is no dowry to marry a daughter here, but generally speaking, a dowry is just a few quilts.

On the contrary, the bride price is quite high.

At the current level of economy, a family marrying a daughter-in-law will save about ten years of money – this is the average.

If the family is in difficulty, it may not be enough to save money to marry a daughter-in-law in 20 years.

Either you will be single, or you will marry those defective or divorced women, anyway, it must be the kind that the marriage market is not selling.

However, if a rich family marries a daughter, they will still pay a relatively generous dowry, which can be equal to the bride price paid by the man, and will not keep the man's bride price as his own.

Of course, this is more decent, but such decency is the decency of rich families.

Many poor families who have raised daughters have to rely on marrying their daughters to improve their family's conditions, or save money for their sons to marry their daughters-in-law.

If there are more wealthy people living in the town, they will be more decent.

But in the countryside, the vast majority of them are still not decent, and there are several quilts for dowry, and under normal circumstances, they are still made with the money given by the man's family, and they don't need to prepare it themselves.

It's no wonder Bai Xiaoling doesn't believe it.

However, Yan Xin didn't believe that Wu Xiuhong wanted to embezzle her money, and said with a smile: "Your mother said so......

Bai Xiaoling glanced at him: "Brother, it's our mother." ”

"Well, our mother," Yan Xin said, "If our mother actually said such a thing, it must be intended to do so." Think about it, hasn't it all for your good all these years that she has worked hard for you to study and raised you so much? If you were as selfish as you say, trying to get your money, you wouldn't have to work so hard all these years. ”

Bai Xiaoling mouthed: "You are quite speaking for her." ”

"My dad did the same to me, so I can understand that if it's really an irresponsible parent, it's not like that." Yan Xin said.

There is a ready-made example, and that is Feng Xi's parents.

That's really putting the daughter among the cash cows.

However, this example can't be given to Bai Xiaoling, because now Feng Chen is not dead, he has become the boss of a company, Feng Xi has also become a talented girl from Beijing University who started her own business, and the Feng family's parents have no stage to show such a face.

Bai Xiaoling didn't know what her mother was like to her, but she was a little unhappy thinking that she would have to pay half of her salary after she went to work.

Said depressedly: "I hope that's the case, otherwise my hard-earned money ......"

As he spoke, his face became bitter.

However, she did not intend to pay half of her salary.

Yan Xin smiled: "Don't worry about this, you will ...... when the time comes." Well, if our mother can't come up with that dowry, I'll give it to you as an elder brother. ”

Bai Xiaoling finally became happy and said, "Brother, you are really good." ”

His face suddenly turned red, and he said: "Brother, you are such a good person, if any woman can marry you, it is really an ancestor who has accumulated virtue." ”

Yan Xin smiled: "No, I'm just an ordinary person." ”

"She didn't know about me stepping on two boats, so she shouldn't be sarcastic." ”

But he was a scumbag, and he still received such excessive praise, and he still had a little bit of shame that he was not worthy of virtue.

And he thought, "If you say me, I'll talk about me, what kind of face are you red?" ”

Thinking about it like this, I felt a little uneasy in my heart.

It was dangerous to stay in the bedroom with Bai Xiaoling, he knew it.

But I didn't expect that sitting in the living room on the first floor, there was also a little dangerous smell.

took out his mobile phone and said, "I don't know if my parents have bought good food, and it's not easy for them to come back, or I'll call and ask where they are now, and I'll drive them back." ”

"No," Bai Xiaoling said, "Both of them went by bicycle, just a few miles, and it won't take too long to come back, so you don't need to drive there." ”

"Then I'll call and ask where they are now?" Yan Xin said.

"There's no need," Bai Xiaoling still shook her head, "What if they are on their way back now, and they are pedaling their bicycles, and suddenly feel that your phone calls have scared them and fallen?" ”

Yan Xin thought about that picture for a while, and finally put down his phone: "You're right, then don't call." ”

But he still felt that it was not very good to sit alone with Bai Xiaoling in this living room, so he stood up and said to Bai Xiaoling:

"Once in a rare comeback, I went out for a walk. If Mom and Dad come back, you can tell them about it, and they will say that I went out to play. ”

Bai Xiaoling also stood up: "Let's go out for a walk together, I'm bored at home." ”

Yan Xin was depressed: "But I just don't want to be with you." ”

But he couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he could only smile and say, "Then let's go out for a walk." ”

I thought to myself, "Anyway, it's better to be outside than inside." She's always embarrassed to do something excessive outside, right? ”

The two went out, Bai Xiaoling locked the door, saw the car parked on the side, rolled her eyes, and said with a smile: "Brother, it's rare that you drive back this time, why don't we drive out for a ride?" ”

Yan Xin didn't have this idea to drive with her, and shook his head: "Forget it today, I'm quite tired from driving all the way, and I don't want to drive for the time being." Tomorrow my parents will go to get the certificate, and I will take you to the county seat to have a fun. ”

Bai Xiaoling was depressed: "But I just want to be with you." ”

But there was still a smile on his face: "Okay, brother." ”
