Back to 80, start from gold digging

Chapter 107 Unsatisfactory
After getting married these days, even returning home for three days was canceled.It was so easy to meet each other, and I thought about leaving after a while, of course Li Cuizhen was angry and disagreed.

Zhao Wenying opened her mouth to explain something, but seeing her mother's fiery posture, she didn't say anything in the end.

At dinner, the Zhao family got together neatly, married Zhao Wenying became the center of attention, and several younger sisters were talking enthusiastically around the front and back, even the youngest little one, Xiao Wu, who just learned to sit up, They all smiled at her hehe, as if they recognized that this was the eldest sister who coaxed him to feed him before.

The little guy snarled as soon as he opened his mouth, revealing his pink and tender gums that didn't even have half a tooth, and he would gag happily when he was teased innocently, and all his troubles disappeared after seeing him.

Li Cuizhen kept adding vegetables to her bowl, and said bluntly: "Eat more, you look thinner, it's only been a few days, and your face has shrunk a lot."

Whether this person's life is going well or not, you can tell from this figure.The old Luo's family has been going through a series of bad things these days. The new daughter-in-law, the eldest girl, is destined to have a hard time. She can't eat well and sleep well. She loses flesh and is visibly thin.

"No matter what's going on, you have to make sure you eat, and your body is the most important thing." Zhao Mingyu also helped out with the side, and slowed down the action of picking up vegetables, but he could keep up with his words.

The implication is that his old Luo family is in chaos and troubles, don't pay attention to it, and it is serious to take care of yourself.

Zhao Wenying nodded: "Yes, I see." Her voice was muffled, as if she was not a top-notch person, and always stood at the end.

It's not easy for the mother's family to interfere in the affairs of the in-law's family, and Zhao Wenying also knows that this is the greatest comfort that parents can give.When I come back from this trip, I can sit and have a meal together, hear these heartwarming words, have a warm chat with my sisters, and tease my lovely brother, that's enough.The depression of the past few days has also eased a lot, and my heart is a little more relaxed.

Before leaving, Li Cuizhen served some dishes to Zhao Wenying and asked her to take them back for the Luo family.I did not forget to explain: "I come back often when I have nothing to do. It is so close, and it is time to lift my feet." If this is a different person, and my mother's family lives so close, I can go three times a day.This big girl is sincere, she just knows how to work, and she doesn't even think about coming home.

Zhao Wenying lowered her head and was silent for a moment. When she raised her face again, there was already a smile on her face, and she said softly, "Okay Mom, I will come back when I have time."

It is not easy for a daughter married far away to go back to her natal home, and the transportation was not convenient in the past, and she would not see her once in ten or eight years.Compared with those girls who married into the same village, I don't know how many times better.Thinking this way makes me feel more comfortable.

Li Cuizhen sent the eldest girl Zhao Wenying out of the yard, looking for comfort.

What she didn't know was that Zhao Wenying was a little annoyed by the well-intentioned cooked dishes.

Not only Zhao Wenying, but also the Luo family did not show up at the lunch table.Ever since Luo Yubao broke his leg, there has been one less labor force.The task of going up the mountain to open up land can't be stopped, otherwise, wouldn't it be self-defeating.Dai Yufen had no choice but to call her son, and went to work with her for two days.

Although the mother and son went up the mountain together, they didn't care about their work at all.Drink saliva for a while, and go to the toilet for a while.Or just sit on the edge in a daze, the mother and son chat and talk, can rest for most of the day, and spend very little time on work.

The real main force is still Zhao Wenying. It can be said that two-thirds of this piece of land was developed by her, and one-third is the result of the collective work of the mother and son and Luo Yubao.

He didn't do much work, but he was very good at taking credit.When she got home from work in the evening, Dai Yufen supported her waist and hammered her legs, and hummed in front of the family: "I've worked all day today, but I'm exhausted, my waist hurts and my legs are sore, and I don't have the energy to walk." .”

"Is it possible to be brisk at work?" Mrs. Luo didn't like her style, but she didn't scold her too much because she had worked all day.Just arrange the candidates for dinner: "Your mother is so tired, let Yubao's daughter-in-law cook for dinner tonight. Young people are light-hearted and quick to relax. You'll be fine after a short rest."

In her eyes, men are busy working outside, and the housework of cooking and washing pots in this house is all done by women.No matter what, it's not their turn to do it.And she is the old lady of the family, with daughter-in-law and grand-daughter-in-law, so she can't do it herself.

Since the daughter-in-law is very tired, let the granddaughter-in-law do it.Although she also went up to the mountain to work for a day, she recovered quickly at a young age, no better than her older mother-in-law.Besides, she doesn't do anyone's job.

Just like that, Zhao Wenying started to pick up the rice cooker.

Get up in the morning and make the meal first, no one will care if she eats or not, anyway, if the whole family has a ready-made breakfast, that's fine.After dinner, I cleaned up quickly, and then I had to go to work on the mountain.Take the time to go home at noon to prepare the meal and then go back to the mountain to open up land.When I got home in the evening, I put down my hoe and had to boil water for dinner without stopping.

After dinner, it's time to have free time, but I still have to take care of Luo Yubao, it's inconvenient to have a broken leg, and there must be someone by my side.During the day, Mrs. Luo can come and take care of one or two, and when she comes back at night, the task will be pushed to her.

That is to say, when you go to bed at night, you are really idle. Zhao Wenying has no time to be idle these days after she got married, working from morning till night.It's not that she doesn't want to go back to her mother's house to take a look, it's just that she can't leave.

A few pieces of mountain land were opened, and then the fields began to be planted.Luo's household registration booklet has a large population, and half of the people in Dafang have not moved out, and the total land allocated is twenty or thirty mu.It took five or six days to plant the land alone, working from dawn to dusk, exhausted every day.

Zhao Wenying was thinking about her natal family building a house, but she was powerless and never took the time to come.Finally, the dozens of acres of land have been planted, and the house of my mother's family has also been built.

None of Luo's family members were present at the noon banquet. On the surface, they were in a hurry to harvest the land, and they were all planted in a short time.In fact, he was digging and searching, and he didn't want to pay for the gift money.

According to the custom of the village, putting up beams on a house is the same as a wedding ceremony. As long as there is a banquet and crossing the Ming Road, the villagers who come to congratulate will bring a gift money, three or two yuan, or ten yuan. Yuan, it depends on the distance of the relationship and the amount of affection.

Luo and Zhao are in-laws, so the ceremony should not be too little, so the villagers will look at it, if it is missing, it will not look good.

The Luo family's money was all held in Dai Yufen's hands, and she was extremely unhappy to ask her to spend it on her stepson Yue's family.The old lady did have some savings, but they kept it in front of the coffin and refused to take it out easily.Even if Luo Yubao had a broken leg, he didn't even bother to take it out.This in-law is on the beam, and it belongs to the whole family's gift money. If you want her to take it, how is it possible.

The two people who got the money didn't want to take the gift money, let alone the one who didn't give the money, because they got a name as a farmer, and they just came and couldn't catch up, so the gift money would naturally be saved .

This abacus is a thief, but it has advantages and disadvantages.The gifts and money are gone, so naturally I can't eat the noodles.

Listening to the comments of the villagers, this Zhao family banquet is so arrogant, big meat slices are eaten casually, there are six dishes of meat and vegetables alone, each plate is full, and they are very willing to use ingredients.

The Luo family's food has always been vegetarian, and there is not much oil, so the meat eaters are naturally greedy.From old to young, if you don't say anything, your stomach has already screamed.

Dai Yufen couldn't stand being moaned by her two daughters, so she came up with an idea.Ask Zhao Wenying to go back to her mother's house and help with the work.What he said was quite pleasant: "The family has been busy with work. After the mountain was opened, the land was planted, and the work was done one after another. The in-laws couldn't take care of it. It was so easy to get free, and the daughter-in-law went back to take care of us on behalf of us. , if there is any work to help pick up and do something, it can be regarded as a little kindness from our family."

Zhao Wenying was sent back to her mother's house, and she didn't come back until she had dinner.

Seeing her entering the house with a small bowl of food, Dai Yufen raised her eyebrows at the two girls proudly, saying, "Look, you're right, there's food here."

It's not hard to imagine that if the natal family holds a banquet, the married girl rushes back before dinner, so why not stay for dinner?If the girl eats it, the husband's family will not be left behind.Before leaving, the appointment had to be filled with some food.

Dai Yufen is very precise in this aspect, and knows the habits of the villagers too well.Most of them have a good face, don't want to be said by others, and always take care of themselves in their actions.

This is the first time for the old Zhao's family to marry a girl, and they are in the same village, so they pay special attention to this.

In fact, as she expected, Zhao Wenying really took the food back.

I was thinking about this at noon, and the food was hot on the table. From the old to the young, everyone in the Luo family ate happily.

Like this, my in-laws came over with good food, and thanked them not to mention graciously.At least don't say anything bad, this is the most basic human accident, and no one who knows a little bit will not do that.

However, he has a personality and is such an ignorant person.

After eating so much, the dishes on the table were almost empty.Dai Yufen stopped her chopsticks, crossed her legs when she had time, and said to Zhao Wenying while picking her teeth: "Next time, bring more meat and vegetables. This is not enough. Your sister and the others are growing up now, and they are tired from studying. Eat more good things. Your family is also stingy, knowing that our family has a large population, you still take such a little, and there are only some vegetarian dishes."

Zhao Wenying had already eaten it before, and now it was serving hot dishes to the table, and she was busy standing up and not sitting down.Hearing Dai Yufen's criticism, she couldn't hold back, and said, "We didn't go to the banquet at noon."

What she meant was that there were plenty of dishes for the banquet. There were so many people in the village at noon, no one could measure how much they ate, and the rest was not estimated in advance. It's a little bit overcooked, and it's not specially prepared for the family. If you want more meat and less vegetables, you can choose more meat and less vegetables, which is not so corresponding.

But the same words mean different things to different listeners.

To those who are interested, it is another explanation. The implication is that the gift is not paid, and half a dime is not accompanied, so you can expect some good meat dishes.It's not bad to bring these, but it's really hard to serve them by picking three or four.

To be honest, this sentence can be regarded as stabbing a hornet's nest.Not following this ceremony was not only Dai Yufen's idea, but also old lady Luo's.In order not to take the gift money, the two reached an agreement.

This thing was done in an unkind way, and her heart was transparent. Zhao Wenying said it to her face, and she was like two cats whose tails were trampled on.

Mrs. Luo slapped the chopsticks on the table heavily, and snorted: "Don't eat, didn't you hear people say, how can you have the face to eat if you don't follow the etiquette. This is really living at such a great age, the more you live, the worse you will be." I'm stuck, I have to look at other people's faces when I eat a meal, old people are disgusting."

Those words were so cruel, Zhao Wenying's face turned pale all of a sudden, and she stood awkwardly by the table, with creases in her clothes.

"Look at you, I'm so angry with your grandma. Isn't it because you didn't show up? As for you holding grudges like this, you still look through these at the dinner table. Daughter-in-law, I'm not talking about you. No matter how good your natal family is, it's your natal family. Since you're all married Come in, that's the family, but don't try to turn your elbows out, do you hear me?"

Dai Yufen's words added fuel to the fire.

Luo Yubao was very angry, and after hearing this, he yelled at Zhao Wenying: "If you think your mother's family is good, then go back, and don't gossip about here."

Just one sentence was reprimanded by three generations of grandparents and grandchildren, Zhao Wenying blushed with grievance: "I, what did I say, I—" Isn't it just an excuse, or the truth, how could this become unforgivable sin.

Luo Laohan directly interrupted: "Say a few words to me, everyone is free, and you can't stop eating." Putting his rice bowl forward, he stood up and glanced at Dai Yufen, and shouted: "Stay here What are you doing here, hurry back to the house. You have a sharp tongue, you are everywhere, and if you don't gossip for a day, your mouth will be scratched."

Dai Yufen was obedient, she snorted awkwardly, and walked quite quickly.

The Luo family's houses are distributed from east to west, from old to young. Although they are arranged neatly, each has its own door.The eating place is in the west room, a small separate room, connected to the back kitchen, next to it is the room of Luo Yubao and Zhao Wenying across a wall.

Originally, Dai Yufen coaxed Zhao Wenying to go back to her mother's house in order to be able to eat the banquet dishes of Zhao's family today, and agreed that she would do the housework, and cleaning the table and washing dishes at night should also be included.

But there was such a commotion just now, and Dai Yufen left directly with Luo Laohan's reprimand.After that, Old Man Luo and Mrs. Luo also went back to the east room.

The uncle and the two sisters-in-law always behaved like their mothers, they patted their buttocks and left without saying a word when they were full.

Luo Yubao was leaning on crutches, and before going out, he was still groaning: "You just look for things when you have nothing to do, and you can't find it by yourself. Hurry up and clean up, and then go back to the house." He limped out the door.

Zhao Wenying looked at the messy table, most of the dishes had been eaten, and there were only a few sporadically left on the plate.

He said that he was afraid of being rejected, but it didn't delay eating at all.The plate was almost licked clean before dropping the chopsticks, which is really shrewd and capable of acting.

Although Zhao Wenying was full of anger, she was helpless.Looking at these plates and bowls, my heart is full of sadness.
