However, no matter how delicious bacon or bacon is, you will get tired of it after eating it for more than half a year. It is not as attractive as fresh pork!
No, even though we didnt have time to make braised pork in the evening, because of this topic, the family also had one more bowl of rice than usual.
Under the influence of her daughters insinuating remarks, Xus mother
Of course, it is more because the eldest daughter-in-law makes pants and clothes in her spare time and can earn enough money for the family to catch up with the salary sent by her eldest son every month, so she is not as harsh as before.
Although she still didn't look good, she still had enough to eat three meals a day, consisting of multigrain, rice porridge and woofou.
What my daughter said makes sense: Only when you are full can you do more work! If you have a mule, you still have to feed it.
No, Xus mother was so surprised that she couldnt open her mouth from ear to ear when she saw her daughter taking out a stack of the remaining balance of the last batch of clothes and the deposit for the next batch of orders:
"so much?"
"That's right! The style I want and the workmanship of my sister-in-law, not only the whole world, but also our little Mingyang County, I will definitely be invincible!"
Hey, who doesnt know how to do needlework? It must be my daughters fault!
Xus mother didnt want to praise her daughter-in-law.
Sister-in-law Xu had no objection.
She feels that her current life, compared with before, is like heaven
There is no need to go to the village to pick up dung, or to get up early and in the dark to cut and chop firewood. You only need to wash your own clothes and sheets.
Having less time to work is not the most important thing, the most important thing is
She can eat enough!
Ever since her sister-in-law left her a bowl of thick porridge, she has never been hungry again.
A few times I felt full and my stomach was bloated.
Not only can I have enough to eat, but since I have earned money for the family, my mother-in-law scolds me less.
Days like this gave her hope.
With great joy, her sister-in-law thrust a big dough stick into her hand.
Sister-in-law, this is your commission.
"Why do you still have her share?" Xu's mother's face sank, "She is your sister-in-law, shouldn't she help you with some work? What does it look like to take money! Take it back quickly!"
"Mom, I'm just talking. My sister-in-law does most of the work. She works much harder than me. Of course, my parents also work hard, so let's share the money we earn! Here, dad, this is yours! Take it Buy cigarettes instead of local cigarettes, and buy a pack of filters to change the taste. This is my mothers job. Mother is the hardest among us. She not only has to take care of the house and take care of the familys daily life, but also takes care of the housework so that we can I dont have to worry about anything when Im working or studying, so I deserve more.
Xu Yin kept five yuan for herself and gave the rest to Xu's mother.
Xu's mother was so coaxed that she beamed: "Give it all to mother? How about you keep it yourself?"
"I have enough. Why do I need so much money? Besides, we haven't divided the family yet, so it's up to my mother to take care of it."
Xus mother felt extremely relieved when she heard this.
Such a large sum of money, what does it mean that my daughter gave it to her as soon as she said it would be given to her? My daughter is filial!
Xu Yin was relieved to see that her mother no longer had to worry about the ten yuan she gave to her sister-in-law.
Originally, she wanted to give it secretly in private, but she was afraid that if something leaked out one day, it would be better to make it clear from the beginning instead of having a huge quarrel at that time.
Since the big head was given to Xus mother, as her main labor force, its okay to give her the small head.
Hands down, Xu Yin arches her eyebrows and smiles when she sees her nephew sitting obediently on the small bench, listening to the adults talking and playing with paper frogs.
"Oh, I forgot about our Doudou. I heard that Doudou has been very well-behaved during this period. He helped me collect firewood, helped my grandma clean the yard, and even washed the dishes after dinner. How could such a well-behaved child not be so good? Heres the reward! Come on, give us Doudou two cents!
I, I have one too?
Doudou was stunned, as if he couldn't believe it, and pointed at himself with his little claws.
Of course! As long as they can contribute to our family, it doesnt matter adults or children, everyone has it!
Little Douding was so happy that he couldn't find the north.
It was completely dark. In order to save electricity and kerosene, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep after washing up.
In the east room, Xus mother held the thick envelope and rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to figure out where to hide it. In the past, she would take a roll of rubber band, put it in an iron box, and plug it into the hole in the wall next to the bed.
But today my daughter gave me too much money. After rolling it up, the iron box couldn't fit in it. I just hid it in a hole in the wall. I was worried about being bitten by mice, so I wanted to find a suitable iron box.
While looking for it, I chatted with my wife: "Old man, look how sensible my daughter is! Give me so much money. By the way, I also gave you ten yuan. Where is it hidden? Bring it!"
Daddy Xu: Thats because my daughter respects me.
I have to leave it to me to take care of you. Do you really want to buy those filtered cigarettes?
Daddy Xu blushed: "It's not a big deal to try something new."
"Don't spend your daughter's money on your own! You can earn it yourself!"
"I gave you everything I earned in the past. When did you buy me cigarettes? My daughter is still kind to me!"
You old man, you dont want to sleep in bed, do you?
Daddy Xu quickly begged for mercy.
Xus mother laughed and scolded him for being old and immoral.
In the east wing, Sister-in-law Xu carefully put the ten yuan she had been given into a yellowed cowhide book that looked like a dagger.
It was a prize that her maternal uncle received as an advanced worker in her early years. He gave it to her when she got married, saying that she would be able to hold cloth stamps, food stamps, etc. when she became a householder.
Its a pity that there have been no tickets to use, but now there is finally a place to use them.
After closing it, I opened it and took a look at it a few times, feeling very happy.
This is the first money she has earned on her own.
Sister-in-law said, there will be more in the future, even more than today, as long as you work hard!
Of course she will do a good job!
This is because my sister-in-law is deliberately provoking her!
Mom, mom, and mine!
Little Douding stood on tiptoe and wanted to give her the two cents in his hand.
Sister-in-law Xu laughed: "Mom will keep your money for you alone. When you need to spend it, ask mom for it."
I wont spend it, I will save it. After I save enough, I can buy the most delicious snacks and candies for my aunt. She gave me candies again today!
Only for my aunt? Doesnt my mother have any?
"Yes! Yes! My sister-in-law said, everyone has it!"
Hahaha, Doudou is so good!
I could vaguely hear the laughter and laughter coming from the east room and east wing.
Xu Yin looked at the yellowed top of the mosquito net, closed her eyes and fell asleep with a smile.
Early the next morning, Xu's mother got up and started cooking the meat.
After the busy farming season, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. The smell didnt change until I hung it in the well last night, but it didnt last long.
Five pounds of fat and thin pork belly is far less cost-effective than five pounds of fat pork belly in Xus mothers opinion.
If she had to spend money to buy it, she would never buy it.
But the meaning of the prize the daughter received is different.
Xus mother raised the knife and cut the meat into three pieces
A strip of bacon rubbed with salt to prepare for pickling, as an additional meat dish for the July feast;
I cook braised pork for lunch to satisfy my daughters craving;
The remaining piece weighed about a kilogram and a half, and was tied with a straw rope and given to the daughter to take to her grandmother's house in Da'ao Village.
