Sun Cuihua thinks that her third daughter's money is more and more expensive. Unfortunately, the Deng family has already agreed on the number of betrothal gifts, and she thinks that no matter how capable Deng Jingu is, she has just started to do business. Naturally, her family's wealth is not as good as that of the earth master's family. When her family really gets a bargain, Deng Jingu will be developed, and she can't thank his parents in law for being poor.
"I see that Jin Gu is more and more capable. Do you think he can earn as much as the Guo family in the future?"
Zhou Changgen has a lot of small intestines. His eyes have always been very poisonous. He has long seen that Deng Jingu is not the thing in the pool. Since Deng Dalang fell down, it took Deng Jingu only a few months to earn such a fortune. He envies the big house of bricks and tiles!
"It's hard to say his fortune. There are two sons-in-law in front of him. It's hard for the Deng family not to develop. Fortunately, the girls are striving for success. I don't know if he can surpass the Guo family. For one thing, I want to tell you that the boy is in business. He's so smart. Zaza, he's absolutely out of my two sons-in-law's village. He's not boasting That's what I can do. "
"Ouch! I can do it Sun Cuihua was more and more happy when she heard that. Although the little son-in-law didn't take an official career, he could earn a lot of money, which was very real.
People in the countryside don't have a lot of ideas about studying. It's because she has three generations that sun Cuihua knows a little about it. But in her heart, studying can serve as a meal, support her mother-in-law and children, and honor her parents?
Not at all. Only by doing business and making a lot of money, can silver really fall into our hands, wear gold and wear silver, and live a rich life.
Sun Cuihua remembers what Zhou Changgen said in her heart. Therefore, the new year's Day gift to the Deng family is not bad. It's just a coincidence. It's also in line with sun Cuihua's temperament.
In fact, she had already prepared the new year's festival gift, but most of it had to fall into the hands of Deng Jingu. For the time being, the new blue Lake silk spring jacket was originally made for the third generation. She changed her mind and gave it to Deng Jingu, with the shoes and socks she had prepared for him. This gift is really good.
Deng Dalang and his wife didn't get any benefit, they just got two boxes of snacks.
Ji Chunhua took the jacket and asked Deng Jingu to try it on the spot. She looked around for a long time and then said, "this jacket is a little too big. You'll grow up next year. If you want to wear it the next year, it's quite suitable. Why don't you put it away first?"
Deng Jingu looked at the spring coat, and then at Ji Chunhua's happy face. His mouth moved, and finally he said, "just according to my mother's meaning."
In fact, he doubted whether the jacket was made for him. According to the size of the jacket, it is more suitable for the third generation.
"By the way, mother, I told you to prepare it. Have you prepared the new year's gift to the Lin family?"
"Oh, it's on the table in the main room." Ji Chunhua's smiling face suddenly became cold.
"What's more, now that the Lin family is well-developed, they look down on us. In previous years, the dead girl of Jin Chai would bring two good fish. Today, she is twenty-eight. Let alone she is human, she hasn't even seen a ghost. My mother knew that she was a pickpocket. She shouldn't have been born at the beginning. She raised a pig with that spirit. She could earn me two silver a year and raise her, Look at her virtue. She revolves around her blind mother-in-law all day, and she never thinks about her
Deng Jingu doesn't answer. Ji Chunhua is really tired in recent months. As for Deng Jinling, who is lying in the room, she is a person who only cares about eating and sleeping.
Ji Chunhua is still nagging about what she did today and how busy she was yesterday when she folded her spring coat.
Deng Jingu was impatient and turned to the hall to see the new year's ceremony for the Lin family.
Just out of the door of the east room, I met Deng Jinling, who came in with the dog left in her arms.
The dog's little face is so cold that it has an old shell. It's like sticking two thin old coconut shells on the little face, and then hanging two lines of green snot.
Deng Jingu moved his eyes away in disgust.
"Jingu, are you back? Have you eaten yet? I heard that my cousin's family invited you to dinner today? "
"Well, the two sons-in-law of my cousin's family have come back. Let me sit down and talk with them." Deng Jingu didn't answer enthusiastically, and wondered if his mother's new year's gift was good enough.
"Wait, you say his two sons in law are back? What are you? My aunt is so mean. When her two sons-in-law come back, she will kill chickens and ducks and arrange a big table of hard dishes. How can you be so stupid that you don't know how to call me or let me have a good meal with the dog leftover and don't give money to my family? "
Deng Jinling's words not only didn't make her feel guilty, but also made her dislike more.
"Second sister, you really don't want your second brother-in-law to take you back for the Spring Festival?"
Ji Chunhua heard two people talking in the room. She just came out and said, "Deng Jinling, I can tell you that you bring this little white eyed wolf to my mother's house to eat and drink. I will open my eyes and close my eyes. Who told me to give birth to such a debt collector like you? But tomorrow is new year's Eve. If Zhao duocai comes to pick you up, he must go home with me for the new year. I don't want to stay here My mother's family. "
This is the custom in Yanghe county. Married girls are not allowed to spend the new year in their mother's home, otherwise, they will be regarded as bringing disaster to their mother's home.So, tomorrow, Ji Chunhua will not leave her at home in any case.
"Mother, how can I go back? If I go back, don't I bow down to the Zhao family? So I've been idle with them these days? "
Deng Jinling didn't want to go back to her mother-in-law's house. She didn't want to see Zhao duocai and his cousin, not to mention the dead old lady of Zhao family. After she rolled up gold and silver and went back to her mother's house, Deng Jinling understood that the dead old lady just wanted to kill her with rat poison. She was stupid to go back there.
"Mother, don't you want to force me to die?"
"Oh, it's my fault? How many times did Zhao duocai come? You're the one who won't go back. I've made it clear to you that the title deed has been completed. As long as you hold this big head in your hand, the Zhao family won't dare to make waves. Why did I give birth to you so stupid that I'm full of cattle grass in my mind? "
Ji Chunhua's temper is just converged for a few days. After Deng Jingu came back with money, her temper became more and more popular.
Hearing this, Deng Jinling roared: "mother, if I don't hit the pillar now, I'll die when I go back to Zhao's house. It's better to die now."
Ji Chunhua raised her hand and slapped her: "what evil did I do in my previous life? When I gave birth to such a son of a bitch, my daughter knows how to drag her husband's things back to her mother's home. You are as stupid as a pig. What did the Zhao family buy you after you married to the Zhao family for so many years? No, There's nothing. You've rolled up those soft things. The Zhao family doesn't dare to do anything about you. I'm really going to make trouble. I'm not afraid to go to the Yamen. The Zhao family takes you as a free girl, but they still hold up their strength. They sell the landlord's dead deed girl, and they still have a hundred or two hundred Wen a month. What's more, you give birth to dog residue to the Zhao family. How can I count it? Those soft things are not enough to compensate you, bah My daughter is the grass on the roadside. If you want to step on it, just step on it. "
For Deng Jinling's temperament, Ji Chunhua wants to put her back in her stomach to recast.
"Niang, why did you hit me? You said the Zhao family didn't dare, so he didn't dare? The dead old lady can do anything for the sake of money. You will know to beat me and beat me to death, so that you will not suffer in vain in this world. " Deng Jinling simply sat down on the ground and howled at the gate with the dog left in her arms. After listening from a distance, she thought she had died.
Deng Jingu frowned at Deng Jinling and said, "you can't stay at home tomorrow Chinese New Year. This is the rule handed down by the ancestors. Well, if you really don't want to go back to the Zhao family, I'll go to the inn in the town and book a room for you. You'll stay there for two days with the dog, and then come back to your mother's home on the second day of junior high school."
Hearing that, Deng Jinling stopped howling, turned her eyes and said, "Jin Gu, I have to say where I live, but you can settle my wife down."
"I'll give you 500 Wen, which is enough for you to eat and live there for two days with your dog left."
"Only 500 Wen?" In fact, Deng Jinling was very excited when she said that.
Ji Chunhua was in the audience. She was very painful. She said angrily, "you are too little for 500 Wen. If you are too little, you can go back to Zhao's house tomorrow. Before Zhao's house gets the title deed in your hand, I don't believe she dares to kill you."
Ji Chunhua, a village woman, may not understand the general principles, but she has seen a lot of these rough things.
"Niang is right. The Zhao family dare not touch you. However, even if you don't have a good time there, you should settle down in the inn for two days. When you look back, I'll think of a good way for you."
Deng Jingu remembers Zhao duocai's cousin, who seems to have a tile roofed house and a few acres of thin farmland. As for how much soft her parents left, he still doesn't know.
"Niang, the new year's Day gift I asked you to prepare is already dark outside. If it's too late, I'm afraid the village road will be more difficult."
Ji Chunhua is still distressed by the hundreds of Wen. When she heard Deng Jingu ask her, she said, "it's on the table behind you."
Now the Deng family can afford to use tung oil lamps night and night. That's what she said.
When Deng Jingu looked back, his whole face turned black.
"Niang, I remember I gave you twenty Liang just a few days ago."
Ji Chunhua's eyes are wandering, and she doesn't dare to look at Deng Jingu.
"Mother!" Deng Jingu was upset and called her again impatiently.
Ji Chunhua said in a low voice after a long time: "that's what you've earned. When you give money to your mother, she doesn't always leave a share first and save it there for you to get married."
Deng Jingu's heart was immediately drenched.
But he can't blame Ji Chunhua.
"It's too light to send these gifts to the Lin family."
"How light, two chopsticks long salty crucian carp, ten eggs, two Jin white flour, this is not enough, his Lin family is living in the golden nest or the Milky way." Ji Chunhua is too heavy for this year's festival. According to her and Deng Dalang's ideas, just take some dried vegetables to the door.
