Chapter 316: Setting the Wine
The big guy was envious, Chen Xiuyun stepped on the bicycle with a smile on her face and tried it on the road at the entrance of the courtyard.
A few decades later, the streets were full of private cars and bicycles were rare, but now, bicycles are rarer in the village than private cars were a few decades later.
Jiang Xinyu and Chen Yi's college entrance examination results were outstanding, the commune rewarded ten yuan, and the county rewarded twenty yuan, adding up to a total of thirty yuan, these people in the village knew and were deeply envious.
Chen Xiuyun happily rode her bicycle home, thinking that if she could really go to the commune to teach in the future, then this bicycle would come in handy.
The little couple spent so much money at once, and the widow Wang was still a little distressed.
Jiang Xinyu heard her say when she drank bone broth: "When the time comes, you two will go to college, and no one will use the bicycle at home, so it is better to give the family bicycle directly to your mother, so that you can save your money and have more money to go to college in the future."
Jiang Xinyu paused with her hand holding chopsticks and said, "Mom, don't worry, it doesn't cost much to go to college, and the school will give you a subsidy every month. Besides, if you keep this bicycle at home, you can use it, and my mother may go to the commune to teach in the future, so it will be much more convenient to have a bicycle."
Chen Yi, who was holding the hot soup, heard the words of the two of them before he stepped into the threshold, and said with a normal expression: "Mom, you said it yourself, a son-in-law and a half, you bought it all, and you had no opinion before, but now you don't feel sorry for that money."
The widow wants to cover her heart, what is that little money? What she said made her almost uncountable!
The son and daughter-in-law are really all the way, and they don't put such a big amount of money in their eyes.
When she saw her daughter-in-law, who was bored drinking soup and no longer talking, the widow Wang said, "Mom just wants to say, in the future, you two should keep your money tight, and no one will live like you."
When she returned to the house after eating, Chen Yi looked at her, "Unhappy?"
Jiang Xinyu shook her head, "We are still poor, otherwise your mother will not care about this bicycle, and if you want to change it to my last mother-in-law, it is not a matter at all to send a car out."
Now that everyone is frugal and doesn't have much money in their pockets, she can still understand her mother-in-law's way, of course, she can't be angry.
Chen Yi nodded, "Their generation is like this, and they are used to being thrifty."
Thinking of his former relatives, he was also silent.
While the two were silent, the widow knocked on the door, "Xinyu, come to the hall, and I'll measure your shoulders."
At that time, her belly will be big, and she will go to school in a few months, and Widow Wang wants to make all the clothes for Jiang Xinyu, otherwise she will not have suitable clothes to wear at that time.
Children's clothes and shoes, and adults' clothes and shoes have to be made.
The widow said as she measured it, "I'll make you elastic for the waistband of your trousers, and pull out the strap in front of your waist, so that you can adjust the elasticity yourself, and the waistband of your trousers will not fall off easily."
It was a little unpleasant before, but Jiang Xinyu's anger disappeared again.
In the evening, she wrote the letter to Jiang Yuzhu, and the next morning she took the letter back to her parents' house.
Xiaochuan is padding the piggy baby in the pigsty, and Chen Xiuyun is changing the child's clothes.
"Mom, this is a letter, when you send something to her, send it by the way."
Chen Xiuyun nodded, "You can leave it there, and I'll go to the commune tomorrow." What else did your second sister tell you?"
Jiang Xinyu hesitated and said, "Second sister has talked about the object, you have also seen it, it is Zhou Qi who came to us to make a movie last year, the one with a smile and a mouthful of big white teeth."
Chen Xiuyun put down the needle and thread and cloth in his hand, "Xiao Zhou's family conditions are good, right?"
It's not that she thinks her daughter is not worthy of Zhou Qi, or her family background is too different.
The village is poor, who picks whom? But if someone comes from the capital, Zhou Qi can talk to Chen Jiajia to go together, then the family is not far behind!
Jiang Xinyu said again: "The second sister was admitted to medical school, and Zhou Qi took the second sister home to meet her parents..."
She roughly told Zhou Qi and Jiang Yuzhu about the situation, regardless of whether the two of them can make it or not, since they have already met their parents, her mother should know about it.
"You said her family didn't want Yuzhu
Keep making movies? Yuzhu was admitted to medical school and still doesn't want to go there?"
Jiang Xinyu nodded, "Mom, what do you think?"
Chen Xiuyun glared at her, "What can I have? She only told you something, and she didn't want to ask for my opinion!"
"She's not afraid that you'll be in a hurry, and she's not embarrassed to tell you." Jiang Xinyu defended Jiang Yuzhu.
"She was admitted and didn't want to go, what was she tossing around in the first place? What else is there to test?"
Chen Xiuyun didn't have a score in her heart, and she didn't discriminate against filmmakers, so she said that studying medicine is a good place, and making movies is also a good place, anyway, as long as there is a serious unit, it is a good place.
"She took the college entrance examination just to prove herself, and it turned out to be very effective."
Chen Xiuyun can see the key to this, originally her Yuzhu is a dwarf family, if she continues to make movies, the contradiction will not be solved. But her daughter is willing to make movies, and there is no reason to look at Zhou Qijia's face.
Suddenly, Chen Xiuyun also made a difficulty.
After a while, she said, "Let her continue to take the test, what she likes is the most important thing, and if she compromises this thing, it is estimated that there will be more things to compromise in the future."
"Then aren't you afraid that Zhou Qi, the golden beetle son-in-law, will be gone?"
Chen Xiuyun shook his head and said, "It's not necessarily a good thing if the door is too high."
The mother and daughter talked about this and that, and when they were about to leave, Jiang Xinyu did not forget to explain, "Mom, have you been reading a book recently? There will be an assessment in a few days after the year, and if you don't understand something, just ask me."
Chen Xiuyun nodded in response, "Chen Yi's mother said that the table will be set up tomorrow?"
Jiang Xinyu said "um".
The notice has been in place for many days, and I waited until the pig was killed before setting the table.
In the afternoon of the same day, Chen Xiuyun went to the consignment point to buy several catties of wine and brought it over. The eggs at home were all used to make pastries, and she took the money to other people's houses to exchange a lot of them.
Although it is said that the in-laws set up the wine, Jiang Xinyu is her daughter, and Chen Yi is her son-in-law, there is no reason to let the widow Wang work alone, and her family is also glorious.
After eating the next morning, Chen Xiuyun came to help.
Jiang Xinyu moved her arms and legs after eating, and she was about to go into the kitchen to help, but she was driven out by her mother-in-law, her own mother, and Ma Meimei.
"The college students will go into the kitchen today, borrow some tables, chairs and benches, and wait for the lunch to begin."
Widow Wang doesn't like Ma Meimei, but today is a good day, and people take the initiative to help, and there is no reason to drive people out.
The surrounding neighbors, except for Liu Caifeng's family, are very enthusiastic to borrow pots and pans, tables and stools.
The captain's family brought two catties of wine, and the secretary's family thanked Chen Yi for giving his son the job of a projectionist and brought a bag of fruits.
In winter, there are not many dishes, there is not much meat, in addition to pork, there are also pheasants that Chen Yi went to Shijinggou Brigade to exchange, and the other is preserved fish, and the banquet is also rich.
invited a good relationship and two colleagues and friends in the commune, and a total of three tables were set.
