Chapter 34: The Wronged Girl
Sanmei was silent, silent for a long time.
Lu Xiaole hurriedly said: "Since you don't want to say it, don't say it." Go get busy, I'm going back too. β
Sanmei looked at Lu Xiaole: "Is there anything important for you to go back?" β
Lu Xiaole: "It's nothing important, just go back to work." β
Sanmei pondered: "Can you talk to me?" β
Lu Xiaole also wanted to talk to Sanmei, and hurriedly said, "Of course you can." Where to go? β
Sanmei: "Let's go to Tangta Park." β
After Sanmei finished speaking, just ride a bicycle.
Lu Xiaole hurriedly rode his bicycle and chased after Sanmei.
Sanmei's bicycle is a new style, but Lu Xiaole's bicycle is very old, Sanmei is effortless to ride, but he can't catch up with Sanmei with great effort.
In this way, Lu Xiaole followed Sanmei, rode towards Tangta Park, and soon came to the park.
Tangta Park is in the northern part of the county, one mile away from the Spring Breeze Photo Studio.
In the park, there is an ancient tower that is said to be the Tang Dynasty, but even if it is really an ancient tower of the Tang Dynasty, it has been renovated many times, but it looks very quaint and is a landmark in the county.
The park covers a large area, with a pond in the middle and four curved contours leading to the center of the pond.
There are many lawns in the park, as well as seats, and the environment is elegant. There are also some stalls that increase the liveliness, which is not only a place to play with children, but also a good place for couples to talk about love.
Sanmei rushed to the park first, parked the bicycle, locked it, and walked to a seat facing the pond, sat down, and faced the pond center.
Lu Xiaole also parked his bicycle, walked next to Sanmei, and sat on the seat.
Sanmei looked at the water in the pond, her brows furrowed slightly, and although her expression was very calm, she was a little resentful, which made people want to know what was on her mind with such a beautiful girl?
Lu Xiaole first found a topic to break the somewhat awkward atmosphere.
"Do you stay at your second sister's house at night, or do you go home?"
"Go home. The second sister's house is too crowded, there is no place for me to live, unless there is rain and snow, I can only make up for one night in the warehouse of the second sister's house, and I usually go home. β
Speaking of this, Sanmei sighed faintly, turned her head to look at Lu Xiaole, and said:
"You just asked me what I wasn't happy about. There are many things that I am unhappy about, and in the second sister's house, it is an unhappy thing. β
Lu Xiaole was a little strange: "Is your second sister not good to you?" β
Sanmei said: "She is my sister, of course she can treat me." But she also has her difficulties. They all say that the city is good, but I think the city is not good. β
Sanmei spoke eloquently and confided her thoughts to Lu Xiaole.
It turned out that Sanmei's second sister, although she married in the city, her life was not easy.
The second sister's husband is an ordinary unit employee, with heavy work and meager salary, and he has no time to take care of the family's business.
Due to the crowded living space in the city, after the second sister got married, she still lived in a courtyard with her in-laws, although it was a five-bay room, but she had to vacate two warehouses, so the second sister lived in two rooms with her children and her in-laws, which was very crowded.
It's just that the house is crowded, and there are other contradictions.
Although the second sister is a village flower, the more people in the city have an advantage, her husband treats her well, but her in-laws look down on her as a countryman, and she has a high-minded posture.
Although the in-laws look down on the countrymen, in the county seat, they are actually ordinary families, and even the bottom, and the old couple opened a daily necessities store in the wholesale street.
After the second sister got married, she started a battle for the store with her in-laws.
The in-laws still have to control the store, but the second sister wants to fight for the store, because whoever controls the store will control the family's finances.
In the past few years, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been comparable, and no one has fought against anyone.
Since the second sister got married, the shop didn't use so many people, so the father-in-law went to push the tricycle, and at the same time worked part-time as a stevedore, so the second sister and her mother-in-law took care of the store together.
In order to let Sanmei marry a good family in the city and prevent Sanmei from helping with dirty work at home, Mrs. Zhou asked Sanmei to help in the second sister's shop.
A store can't use three people at all, and Sanmei's arrival not only exacerbated the contradiction between the second sister and her in-laws, but also put Sanmei in an awkward position, she is like a dispensable shadow, a superfluous person.
In order to squeeze Sanmei away, the second sister's mother-in-law is always in the store, picking three and four from Sanmei, raising her eyebrows, the purpose is to make Sanmei retreat and take the initiative to quit.
Sanmei has a cowardly personality and is not good at fighting with others, and when she is wronged, she wants to quit.
But Mrs. Zhou didn't agree to let Sanmei quit, firstly, she wanted Sanmei to squeeze out the second sister's mother-in-law and help the second sister fight for the store, and secondly, she wanted Sanmei to have a good reputation for "working in the city", so that it was convenient to find a good mother-in-law's house.
Mrs. Zhou also complained that Sanmei was not angry and did not dare to quarrel with the second sister's mother-in-law.
Although the second sister is towards Sanmei, the second brother-in-law is towards his parents, although he doesn't say anything about Sanmei, his attitude is very cold, and his eyes are also very indifferent when he looks at Sanmei, as if he is complaining that she does not quit.
In this way, Sanmei is angry at both ends, and she is not a person inside and out.
Sanmei didn't dare to fight for power with her second sister's in-laws, and she was afraid of her mother, she was caught in the middle, and her heart was full of grievances.
As she spoke, tears flowed from Sanmei's eyes, and a pair of beautiful big eyes were full of mist, which was more beautiful and lovely.
Lu Xiaole was greatly sympathetic, sighed, and said:
"Aunt Zhou is really, she has to force you to stay in the store. The shop is someone else's, and you're an outsider there, can you not be angry? β
"But now it's okay, when you get engaged, you can ask your fiancΓ© to find you a good job, and you don't have to stay in the store to be angry."
"By the way, the village chief of Xiguan is so rich, you don't have to work at all, just be a young grandmother at home."
Sanmei took out a white handkerchief, wiped her tears, and said:
"The engagement is also the most unhappy thing for me."
Lu Xiaole was a little strange: "Isn't the man the son of the head of Xiguan Village?" β
Sanmei: "Yes. β
Lu Xiaole: "Isn't he handsome?" β
Sanmei was silent for a moment and shook her head: "It looks okay." β
Lu Xiaole was even more curious: "Since he is good-looking and has good family conditions, what else are you unhappy about?" Do they dislike you as a rural person? β
Sanmei shook her head: "They didn't dislike me, they agreed, saying that they would hand over the meeting gift in two days and get married." β
Lu Xiaole: "Then do you have a boyfriend?" β
Sanmei still shook her head: "I haven't been in love yet." β
Lu Xiaole couldn't figure it out: "Then why are you unhappy?" β
Sanmei sighed faintly: "Although he is very good, he is not the person I like." β
Lu Xiaole's heart jumped: "Who do you like?" β
Sanmei turned her head, her deep eyes looked directly into Lu Xiaole's eyes, and said quietly:
"You!"
