Chapter 1328： I have no chance

Chapter 1328 I have no chance

Cai Xiufen looked at Captain Jiang with a smile. Hearing this, Captain Jiang just took a breath of dry cigarette and was choked so hard that he coughed repeatedly. Seeing this, Cai Xiufen laughed out loud: "Why, you think what I said is wrong. ?”

“You are so old, yet you are still so unstable, and you are not afraid of the boss and the others hearing the joke.”

The coughing finally stopped, and Captain Jiang looked at Cai Xiufen with difficulty.

“What’s a good joke?”

Chai Xiufen disagreed.

Captain Jiang put out the pot and put the tobacco bag on the kang cabinet.

“Where are you going?”

Cai Xiufen was holding her sleeping little grandson, Jiang Guoan's son, in her arms. When she saw Captain Jiang getting off the kang and putting on his shoes, she couldn't help but ask.

“I’m going to visit my eldest brother.”

The old father is celebrating his birthday. Although the whole thing is handled by the eldest brother, he is the second eldest son, and it is fine for him and the third eldest son to provide money and support, but as brothers, he cannot really help with everything.

What's more, his parents gave birth to three brothers. Now that the two elders are getting older and their lives are getting worse day by day, he might as well go and talk to them.

“Don’t forget to put on that big cotton-padded jacket.”

Cai Xiufen had no objection to Captain Jiang going to Uncle Jiang's house, but in order to prevent Captain Jiang from being frozen when he went out, she couldn't help but tell him to wear thicker clothes.

“What a big cotton-padded jacket, Li Bao said more than once, it’s called a down jacket.”

Since every room in the house is equipped with heating pipes, and even the living room is at a moderate temperature, Captain Jiang, Cai Xiufen, and the rest of the family did not wear cotton-padded clothes as long as they did not leave the house.

For example, Captain Jiang is only wearing a thin sweater on his upper body and a more close-fitting down vest.

“It’s just that the name is different.”

Cai Xiufen gave Captain Jiang a roll of her eyes: "I am so old that I am being pretentious, but in the final analysis, you are still an old man!"

Picking up the down jacket hanging on the hanger and putting it on, Captain Jiang turned to look at Cai Xiufen: "You bitch, I really don't know what to say."

The cotton-padded jacket is filled with cotton, but is the down jacket filled with cotton?

This old woman has been in Beicheng longer than him. How come she still doesn’t know the difference between a cotton-padded jacket and a down jacket?

Captain Jiang shook his head secretly.

“Are you speaking ill of me in your heart?”

As he was about to walk out of the room, Cai Xiufen's voice came from behind him, and Captain Jiang couldn't help but pause.

“What bad things can I say about you?”

Looking at Cai Xiufen, Captain Jiang asked with a straight face.

“Say I don’t know the difference between a cotton-padded jacket and a down jacket.”

The couple has lived together for decades and has never blushed. Needless to say, there is no need to talk about their feelings. This also means that they know each other very well. Even if the other person's expression changes slightly, it is not difficult to guess where he or she is. What to think.

No, as soon as Cai Xiufen finished speaking, she saw Captain Jiang looking away guiltily.

“Do you admit it?”

“What do I admit? I have nothing to do but just think about it!”

Captain Jiang waved his hand: "You can rest, I'm leaving."

“Damn old man, don’t even think about struggling...”

Cai Xiufen's voice was not loud, but Captain Jiang had not yet left the room, so she naturally heard her. He blushed for a moment, and then walked out of the room without looking back.

Obviously, Captain Jiang undoubtedly understood what Cai Xiufen meant.

But Cai Xiufen had a smile on her face at this time, and there was a little pride in her eyebrows.

Want to struggle in the palm of my mother’s hand?

It’s useless!

Even if you are lying in a coffin, I will still hold you tightly!

This is not Cai Xiufen’s boasting.

In fact, Captain Jiang was really controlled by Cai Xiufen, but then again, Cai Xiufen was not unreasonable. She would listen to Captain Jiang on big matters, even if she had different opinions, she would Said to Captain Jiang.

For example, Jiang Li married Luo Yanqing.

The two of them talked about it in front of the whole family. In summary, it was all for the good of their precious daughter.

Therefore, afterward, there was no knot in each other’s hearts.

“Mom, where is my father?”

Jiang Li walked into the door and didn't see Captain Jiang on the kang, so he couldn't help but ask.

“Didn’t you see it at the gate of the courtyard?”

Chai Xiufen asked with a smile.

"ah?"

Jiang Li blinked in confusion, but she reacted in an instant and said: "I took Tuanzi and the three of them around the village for a while, and we just entered the door!"

The implication is that she was not always at the gate of the courtyard.

Chai Xiufen did not answer, but asked: "Where are Tuanzi and the others?"

“We were taken by Weiwei to play with Lin Dan and Yan Rou.”

Jiang Li smiled and saw Cai Xiufen winking at her and closing the door. Without saying a word, she closed the door and asked, "What's wrong?"

It's so mysterious. Could it be that I want to whisper something to her?

“Come up and sit.”

 Cai Xiufen opened the quilt, put down her sleeping little grandson in her arms, and let the little guy lie down to sleep on his own. At the same time, she called Jiang Li to get on the kang.

Jiang Li: "You shouldn't have been holding me until now, right?"

“What’s wrong, you can’t hold me?”

 Cai Xiufen helped her little grandson to cover her with the quilt, and saw Jiang Li shaking his head: "I didn't say anything. But don't your arms feel uncomfortable since your little brother and the others came back to hold you?"

“What are you feeling uncomfortable about?”

Cai Xiufen didn't take it seriously: "I used to work in the fields and work for the whole morning. When my hands are basically free, that's when I'm tired! But no matter how tired you are, what can you do? We're all the same. It's not much. Earn some work points and feed the whole family..."

Speaking of this, Cai Xiufen waved her hand: "Let's not talk about those old emperors. Now everyone's life is much easier. Every household has its own land. It's their own business to do what they want to do. If you don't want to be burdened, just plant less. I think it’s fine to find a job in the city to make money as long as you can support your family.”

Jiang Li gave a thumbs up and praised: "My mother's thoughts keep pace with the times. She deserves to be a women's cadre. She is amazing!"

“Stop wearing a high hat on me.”

Cai Xiufen glared at Jiang Li, knowing that her precious daughter was causing trouble to make her happy, but after being praised by her daughter, she felt happy in her heart. However, her face did not show much strangeness. She said: "It's a good national policy. I’ve been listening to the radio and watching TV news a lot while I’m here, so if I still stick to the old ideas, wouldn’t I be holding the country back?”

With the reform and opening up, people in the countryside who are smart and capable can do other things to get rich within the scope of the policy.

There is no place to talk if you do this.

Chai Xiufen knew this very well, so when Brother Jiang and Brother Jiang contracted out part of the family's land, she insisted on starting a business outside without raising any objections.

After all, the country does not stipulate that country people must farm the land all their lives.

What’s more, with the development of the country, more and more machinery will replace the work in the fields in the future, which does not require much human effort, just like the tractors that appeared in the past few years.

It can pull crops back from the ground and pull manure into the ground, which saves everyone a lot of effort.

“Mom, you are said to be powerful, but you are too modest to admit it. Tell me, you often listen to the radio and watch TV news. How many women in our village can compare with you?”

Jiang Li's eyes were shining, and her face was serious: "This is called pattern and vision. Mom, you are really an extraordinary old lady!"

Hands out thumbs up again.

Chai Xiufen didn't accept Jiang Li's rainbow fart. Her eyes widened: "Am I very old?"

Jiang Li noticed that something was wrong and said hurriedly: "You are not old, you are young. When we go out, we don't look like mother and daughter, but like sisters!"

“Then who do you call old lady?”

Cai Xiufen raised her eyebrows.

“Mom, you must have heard wrong. How could I call you an old lady?”

Blinking his eyes, Jiang Li said cutely: "In my eyes and heart, my mother is a great beauty, so beautiful that my father can't take his eyes away when he sees her!"

"screw you!"

Jiang Li was sitting next to Cai Xiufen, which made it easier for Cai Xiufen to attack her.

“Ouch, it hurts so much!”

After being slapped on the arm by his mother, Jiang Li immediately came online: "Mom, don't you love me anymore?"

Looking aggrieved, she said: "I'm so pitiful. My mother doesn't like me anymore. What should I do? Who will comfort me?"

Cai Xiufen was neither smiling nor angry. She casually patted Jiang Li on the arm again: "I let you play tricks! I let you play tricks! I don't know that you have already misled Hanhan like this. Even glutinous rice **** are not good." I started to learn from you, can you tell me that you are a bit like a mother? "

Hearing this, Jiang Li returned to her seriousness instantly. She cleared her throat and said, "I am definitely the most perfect mother in the world!"

Chai Xiufen: “Are you trying to put money on your face?”

Jiang Li deliberately misinterpreted my mother's meaning: "How ugly that is! Mother, look at me, your beautiful daughter, if I get a little gold dust, wouldn't she become ugly?"

Don’t look too innocent.

“Are you playing tricks on me and your mother?”

Chai Xiufen seems to be smiling but not smiling. “How dare you!”

Jiang Li smiled flatteringly: "Mom, you know what kind of person I am, how could I play tricks on you? In fact, I just show off in front of you, and I will be bumped into by the children occasionally, but I make sure I’ve never been outspoken in front of children. If you think about it carefully, you’ll know if I told lies.”

She has always been a reliable mother in front of the children in the family.

"Okay, you have such a mouth, even if you don't make sense, you can still make sense!"

Pointing Jiang Li's forehead, Cai Xiufen turned the topic to Wang Pan: "Your brother and your wife were quarreling just after they came back today. Your father and I said something about your brother, and your brother actually mentioned divorce in front of us. , I think your little brother didn’t say that on impulse.

Later, when your brother left, I chatted with your father about your fifth sister-in-law, and we mentioned Xiaodan and Rourou. As a result, your fifth sister-in-law was standing outside the door of our room. If Linlin hadn't greeted your fifth sister-in-law, I don’t know how long she will stand there and listen in the corner! "

Jiang Li: “It shouldn’t be intentional.”

Chai Xiufen: "I think so too, but I still feel a little uncomfortable."

Jiang Li: "What are you doing with my father Tilindan and Yanrou?"

Cai Xiufen: "Isn't it because she is from the city that your fifth sister-in-law keeps showing off to our family? She also always quarrels with your little brother. I can't stand her noisiness anyway."

“So you and my father mentioned your two grandsons-in-law, saying that they also grew up in the city, but one is more sensible than the other, right?”

After hearing what Jiang Li said, Cai Xiufen was startled for a moment, and then said: "As expected of my daughter, you can guess all this."

"Mom, there is no comparison between people. We live in different growth environments, and the personalities we cultivate are naturally different. As for the fifth sister-in-law, she is just showing a little temper in front of my little brother. Don't take it to heart. Look back. Also tell my dad, don’t worry about my little brother and his wife.”

Jiang Li didn't want his father and mother to suffer between Jiang Guoan and his wife.

After all, they are a couple. They are quarreling one moment and can reconcile the next moment. But if the old couple gets involved, it may intensify the conflict.

Because as the saying goes: A couple quarrels at the head of the bed and ends at the end of the bed.

"Your father is more open-minded than me. He also advised me not to get involved in your brother and his wife's affairs. He said that your fifth sister-in-law may have been spoiled by her family and she would inevitably play tricks in front of your brother after marriage. small temper.

After hearing what your father said, I retorted to him and said, "Aren't you the one loved by our family? Why don't you always get into trouble with Yan Qing?" After hearing this, your father told me to go to your uncle's house and have a look. I knew he had nothing to say and was avoiding the question. "

“I have no chance.”

“What did you say?”

Chai Xiufen glared: "Repeat what you just said."

“Mother!”

Jiang Li's voice was soft, she did it on purpose, and she said with a smile: "You taught me how to make trouble with your good son-in-law? Besides, your good son-in-law is very busy at work and finally goes home to rest, but he doesn't want to." Maybe give me a chance to make a fuss, right?”

Chai Xiufen: “Don’t think that I don’t know what you meant by that sentence.”

It means that the son-in-law is busy with work and does not give her a chance to make trouble. This is not an idea.

Thinking of this, Cai Xiufen straightened her face: "Li Bao, this mother has no control over how other girls get along with her own man, but you can't act petty in front of Yan Qing. Not to mention that Yan Qing has a good temper. He alone He's so busy with work that he can't even take a break. If you make a noise when he finally goes home to rest, it's your fault! "

“I know, I know! Your good son-in-law works very hard, I promise not to make trouble with him at any time!”

Jiang Li looked serious: "Do you need me to raise my hand to swear?"

“As long as you have an idea.”

Chai Xiufen shook her head and said with helplessness: "When we live together, either you let me have some, or I let you have some. Only in this way can we live harmoniously. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the two of us to live together for a long time."

“I will remember what mother said.”

Jiang Li smiled slightly, and then said: "We can say that we are all outsiders when it comes to my brother and his wife, but I believe that my brother is a successful man. He knows how to live his life. We are watching from the sidelines. That's good. Besides, the couple needs to get along. Maybe in a year or two, Sister-in-law Wu will no longer argue with my brother over the sesame and mung beans."

“That’s the best thing that can happen.”

Cai Xiufen said: "From your eldest brother, sister-in-law to your fourth brother and sister-in-law, your father and I have never had to worry about these four couples. It's you and Yan Qing. If you hadn't disappeared suddenly that year, your father and I would have been I was anxious, complaining in my heart whether Yan Qing had said something harsh to you, which you would find difficult to accept for a while, so I ran to a quiet place to be alone, because I didn’t want my family to feel uncomfortable when they saw it... The two of you said it with ease. .

I didn’t expect this from your little brother. When I first met your fifth sister-in-law, I thought she was a pretty good girl. However, she seemed to have changed her personality after marriage. "

Hearing this, Jiang Li smiled but did not answer.

Before marriage, I was obsessed with showing my best side in front of my partner and his/her family, especially those who chased after me like Wang Pan, who never forgot to hide my shortcomings.

Now that you are married, the man you want to pursue becomes your own. Once your nerves are relaxed, your character flaws will naturally gradually be revealed in your life.

When she realized that Wang Pan was not as innocent and carefree as he appeared on the surface, she kept a certain distance from him. At the same time, she stopped thinking about bringing him into her life, that is, providing him with ways to get close to Jiang Guoan. Chance.

And when Jiang Guoan asked about his attitude towards Wang Pan, he expressed his opinion without any personal emotions.

In the end, because of Wang Pan's "perseverance", he successfully captured Jiang Guoan.

She could see at that time that it was not necessarily true that Jiang Guoan liked Wang Pan very much. Most of them were moved by his "perseverance"!

Furthermore, I feel that since we are old enough and we don’t hate each other, we can live together.

To sum it up in one sentence: Just make do with it!

Sometimes Jiang Li couldn't help but wonder, why is Jiang Guoan's relationship so bumpy in the entire Jiang family?

When I first started working, I met Yang Zijuan, a wonderful girl. When I was in college, I met Wang Pan, who had the spirit of "The Foolish Old Man Moves Mountains". Love letters were sent to me one after another. Even if they didn't accept them, they still showed up again and again to present them. Write her confession letter.

Speaking of which, any normal man would probably be unable to withstand this.

And Jiang Guoan happens to be one of them.

Why! Sighing secretly, Jiang Li felt that one thing could not be denied, that is, Wang Pan was indeed good-looking and looked very well-behaved.

…

Grandpa Jiang has three sons, and Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang live with Uncle Jiang. Needless to say, tomorrow’s birthday party will be held at Uncle Jiang’s house.

Since many people from Uncle Jiang’s house in the third bedroom and Jiang Li’s house in the second house came to help Uncle Jiang this afternoon, when it came time for dinner, the three families shared the same place.

At about nine o'clock in the evening, Uncle Jiang's family and his second wife Jiang Li's family left Uncle Jiang's house.

The township party members who came to Uncle Jiang’s house to help select and wash vegetables have also returned to their respective homes one after another.

All the preparations have been done, just waiting for the chef to take over tomorrow morning.

At present, there are weddings and funerals in the farm family, and the township parties are helping each other, and they need to borrow a lot of tables and stools. However, Lao Jiang's family was very popular in Auli Village, so it didn't take Uncle Jiang or Captain Jiang and Uncle Jiang to open their mouths. Those villagers who came to help, whoever had a high table and long stools, just brought them over when they came to help in the afternoon.

As for the pots, pans, pans and tableware used on the banquet, the chef has it at home and rents it exclusively for the villagers from ten miles and eight villages to hold weddings and weddings.

There is no doubt that the head chef is a smart person who can make money through this legitimate method and achieve the goal of getting rich.

It is reasonable and provides convenience to the villagers in eight villages in ten miles. I received many thanks.

If the head chef could move his head faster and provide tables and stools, he would probably be able to increase his income...

“Go to bed, everyone. You have to get up early tomorrow, so don’t stay here all the time.”

After returning home and sitting on the kang, Cai Xiufen looked at the room full of people and raised her hand to chase people away.

Captain Jiang did not speak.

“Mom, I’ll stay and talk to you and my dad.”

Jiang Guosheng, the second brother Jiang, spoke at this time. Seeing that his mother did not chase him away, Jiang Guosheng couldn't help but cast his eyes on Jiang Li: "Li Bao, you are also sitting in our father's and mother's house."

Jiang Li knew that the other party wanted to have a chat with her.

Nodding, she said to Mingrui: "Ruirui, you and Hanhan Weiwei take Tuanzi and the others to wash up and go to bed first."

"OK."

Mingrui responded and called Minghan. Mingwei picked up the dumplings and glutinous rice **** and went out of the room.

Brother Jiang, Third Brother Jiang, Fourth Brother Jiang, and Jiang Guoan sent their respective children away. Without waiting for Captain Jiang and Cai Xiufen to say anything, they all took off their shoes and got on the kang, huddled together with Jiang Guosheng and Jiang Li. Together.

“Old man, do you have a headache?”

Looking at her son sitting on the Kang, Cai Xiufen's brows turned into knots.

"Um."

Captain Jiang nodded.

Having too many sons is indeed a bit overwhelming, but fortunately, having only a few at home makes things easier.

“Dad, our brothers are not unfilial sons!”

Jiang Guoan said with a smile.

“Lao Wu is right, father and mother, we brothers are all filial to each other. Of course, if compared with Li Bao, our filial piety is not enough!”

Sir Brother Jiang said, he looked at Jiang Li, and then he was obviously a little embarrassed.

Brother Jiang looked at Jiang Li with a smile and said, "Li Bao, I am not as filial to our parents as you are, but I will work hard and try not to fall behind too far behind you."

Third brother Jiang's eyes also fell on Jiang Li: "Li Bao, be filial in front of our father and mother. Third brother can't compare with you, but as long as our father and mother are here in our hometown, third brother will definitely take good care of our two elders." All right."

This is the truth. Ever since I accompanied Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang back to their hometown during the National Day, Third Brother Jiang has basically been in charge of the daily lives of Cai Xiufen and Captain Jiang.

For example, helping Cai Xiufen cook, or working in the fields with Captain Jiang. In short, Brother Jiang spends at least half of his time in the village in a month.

All things in the clothing store are taken care of by Jiang Sansao.

“Brother, you all will say, I don’t know what to say now.”

Jiang Guosheng smiled bitterly: "I have been transferred to work in Beicheng for more than a year, but I rarely have time to go to Li Bao's place to see my parents. On the contrary, my parents come all the way to my place to visit our family. Speaking of which, no matter what I feel ashamed both as a son and as an elder brother! I failed to be more filial to my parents, and I couldn’t do anything to help Li Bao. Looking back, I am absolutely useless!”

“Second brother, what are you, eldest brother, third brother, fourth brother and younger brother doing? Are you holding a review meeting with me?”

Jiang Li was a little dumbfounded. She said, "What do you mean you are useless? You were protecting our country. Without people like you, how could we live a stable and peaceful life?"

Gentle and smiling eyes passed over Brother Jiang and others. Jiang Li continued: "We are all children of our parents. In my opinion, when it comes to filial piety, I can't compare with you. First of all, growing up, my parents doted on me. You loved me, you also pampered me, and you didn’t let me do anything. There was delicious food at home, so you clung to me to eat it first. After I married Luo Yanqing, my parents were worried that I would be alone in Beicheng.

Not only did I ask my brother to accompany me, but my mother also went to Beicheng to take care of me. After that, even my father took care of me and a few children. I was not filial to my parents, but my father and mother were always there for me. worry. If you don’t want me to feel ashamed, don’t say anything about me not being filial in front of my parents. Otherwise, I will jump off the kang and leave immediately! "

Then catch the insects. . .
