Hard times have room

Chapter 1042 Charcoal

Baolin talked about the charcoal, and Wang Jiandang took it to heart. He knew that some people in the mountains made a living by burning charcoal, but he did not know the specific situation very well, because the family had never bought charcoal, so, What he wants to know is more specific, and he has to ask others for information.

In the afternoon, Baolin handed over 20 yuan and cotton tickets issued by the factory to her mother.

Su Hongying saw Paulin stretch out her hand and hand her something. She subconsciously took the thing in Paulin's hand. After seeing the thing in her hand clearly, she lost her composure: "Paulin, why are you giving me this thing?"

"You're a girl, you keep the money for your own flowers! You can use the cloth and cotton tickets, and keep them to make your own clothes. You don't have to worry about ours."

Although there are always people in the village arguing in front of her, wanting her to hold Paulin's salary in her hands, what is it that she saves money for her younger brother in advance, and when the younger brother grows up, she will use the money to get a house and marry a wife and give it back to her. Come up with an idea to keep Pauline for five or ten years. If you don't make a lot of money, it's not enough to get back the money spent on her over the years.

Regarding those people, Su Hongying didn't say anything on the surface, but in her heart, she has silently marked them as people who can't communicate with each other. They have different ideas and can't play together.

She is a person who knows well. If it weren't for Pauline, their family would never be able to live a good life today. Regarding Pauline's study, to be honest, the couple really didn't help much, and they really don't have that face. Take credit.

Besides, even if the son is born, the daughter is also her own. How could it be possible for a daughter who has been raised like a jewel for more than ten or twenty years to not feel bad at all because of the birth of a son?

"Mom, my monthly salary is 48 yuan, and I will give you 38 yuan a month. I have [-] yuan left, which is enough for me to spend."

"There are also cloth tickets and cotton tickets because I don't know how to make clothes. It's a waste to put these things in my hands. I think one day you're free, you can make new clothes for your brother. Children, you still have to dress up. look better."

For this younger brother, although Pauline is very close in her heart, there is another premise, that is, he is liked by her parents. As for herself, the two brothers and sisters have not gotten along well, so the relationship is naturally not deep. go.

"You must accept this money and save it for me, lest I spend all the money every month and I can't save it at all." Paulin refused to accept the money and tickets that Su Hongying handed over.

She is very aware of the current situation at home, and she is not short of money, but this is her little intention. Before, she thought about waiting for her to work, how to do it, and now that she has officially started working, of course she has to put herself Do what you thought before!

Hearing this, Su Hongying's hand moved for a while, as if she had thought of something, and then her expression changed: "Okay, this money will be placed with me. When you need it later, come and get it from me at any time."

Pauline’s monthly salary is 48 yuan, which is really a lot, but she is afraid that Pauline is young and has an unstable temper, so she will spend all her salary. If Pauline saves [-] yuan with her every month If she hadn't, she immediately let go of most of this hidden worry, after all, she had a way out for Pauline.

As for this money, it is Pauline's own salary, she will only keep it for her, and will not move it without authorization.

"Okay." Pauline complied obediently. The family didn't say anything. Even if it moved, she didn't have any opinion. It was originally for them.

Wang Jiandang's work efficiency is very high. Baolin talked about the charcoal on the first day of the first day of the new year. At noon on the second day of the new year, Wang Jiandang brought the charcoal back to her. She felt that this charcoal alone was enough. She has been burning for a long time.

"Dad, how much does this charcoal cost?" Pauline asked, picking up a lump of charcoal the size of a child's fist.

The one she picked up was broken, and the bag was more intact. The longest one was as long as an adult arm. I have to say, this charcoal looks really good.

"Not much, just a few dollars."

Charcoal is really worthless. He went to the mountains to find someone to buy it directly, and the price was even cheaper. Two sacks of charcoal cost 35 catties, and it cost [-] cents per catty. It cost a total of [-] yuan.

Because it is still during the National Day holiday, Wang Jiandang does not have to go to work in the field. The family can go outside for a walk. Paulin and Wang Jiandang, their father and daughter, even went to Biyue Lake in the afternoon of the second day of the new year. Fishing in remote places, I harvested a few small miscellaneous fish, all of which did not add up to half a catty, but I found a lot of snails.

On the third day of junior high, the old lady went to the second room. She heard from the old sisters in the village that Wang Baolin came back from the factory and brought a lot of things to Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang, and her heart was moved.

In the main room, Su Hongying hugged her boy and patted his back lightly. He was already asleep, but not soundly asleep, so he needed to be coaxed for a while.

Seeing Mrs. Wang entering the house, Su Hongying was a little surprised. What are you doing here?
"Mother, you're here, sit down, I'll send this kid to the bed first."

"Okay, you're busy first." The old lady didn't even look at the child in Su Hongying's arms.

In the past, she deliberately picked on Su Hongying because she didn't have a son, and didn't like her, but now that the second child has a son, she still hates Su Hongying, her daughter-in-law, as always.

Although she was shaken for a while because of Li Tao and Xu Qing's "prodigal" behavior in the middle, but Su Hongying later controlled everything in the second child's house, guarding her like a thief, and her disgust for Su Hongying deepened. Some, especially the last time Su Hongying refused to let her take care of the children.

From her point of view, Su Hongying was just lazy and just didn't want to go to work, so she took advantage of the second child's importance to her son and stayed at home directly, refusing to work in the fields to earn work points.

As for the ten catties of grain she wanted, she felt that it was right, and no one could do it for nothing.

Besides, the two of them are over 60 years old, and the second family should also provide pension food, so it is more reasonable for her to accept the ten catties of food with peace of mind.

At this time, Paulin and Wang Jiandang went to chop wood in the nearby woods early in the morning, so only Su Hongying and the youngest stayed at home.

"Mother, come and drink tea." After Su Hongying closed the door of her house, she went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water for Mrs. Wang. No matter what, this old lady was her mother-in-law.

"Well, let it go!"

"What about the second child and Paulin? Why didn't you see them?" Mrs. Wang knew about her relationship with Su Hongying, so she wanted to play emotional cards with Wang Jiandang. There are some things that can't be explained with Su Hongying's stubborn daughter-in-law. .
