Chapter 31
"Baoer, why did you give those girls so many good clothes?"
Aunt Wan felt a little distressed and pulled her daughter and whispered.
This is an era of severe shortage of materials, and you need tickets for everything. You need cloth tickets for buying cloth, industrial tickets for buying pots, and even if you need match tickets for buying boxes of matches.
Ordinary rural families may not be able to wear new clothes all year round.
It’s not that I can’t afford it, but that I can’t get enough cloth tickets.
The An family is better. The boss An Guodong works in the municipal government in the provincial capital. Not only is the high salary, but all kinds of bills are also complete.
Moreover, he will use his position to get some "flaws".
The so-called defective products are actually similar to normal products, because some problems are not sold to the public and are only circulated among internal personnel.
Another one is An Guodong's daughter-in-law Zhao Mei, whose father is a capitalist in the provincial capital. Although the textile factory and pharmaceutical factory at home are all public-private and private, they still have dividends.
As the only daughter of the Zhao family, Zhao Mei can also receive a lot of money every year.
Zhao Mei has a good relationship with An Guodong. She loves the house and the Wu, respects Aunt Wan, and takes great care of An Baoni, her sister-in-law.
With the subsidies from An Guodong and his wife alone, An Baoni can make several new sets of clothes every year.
"Mom, those clothes are small, and I'm tired of wearing them, so I'm wasting my life. Why not give Shujing some more?"
An Baoni keeps up with her nutrition and develops well. An Shujing is the same year as her, but she is much thinner than her.
Therefore, An Baoni can wear small old clothes, and the three of An Shujing sisters can wear them.
"Besides, mom, I think Shujing and the others are good kids with conscience. Their mother doesn't love them and their father doesn't love them. If I treat them a little better, they will remember them in their hearts. In the future, they will naturally be filial to me."
Anne knew that she could not do too "Holy Mother", after all, the original owner was really not a kind and good child.
Although she was not afraid of Aunt Wan's suspicion, she didn't want others to speculate in secret.
Li Fang's words today reminded Annie that she must pay more attention in the future to avoid unnecessary trouble.
When Aunt Wan heard this, she nodded, "Well, those girls are indeed more conscience than Brother Jiayuan, and it is easier to convince."
But he was thinking in his heart that Fang Xiu'e was a stupid person. Before he could dislike his granddaughter as a money-losing product, Fang Xiu'e despised him first.
Now that Baoer intervenes, the Erni sisters are treated the same as the Jiayuan brothers.
But Aunt Wan had a premonition that such a change may not be a good thing for the third room, and no one else needed to do it. Fang Xiu'e herself could make her daughter feel disconnected from her.
Facts have proved that Aunt Wan still has a very accurate view of people.
The next morning, Anne finished washing up and went to the main hall for dinner.
Seeing that Shujing's three sisters were still wearing worn-out clothes, they were immediately confused, "Shujing, why are you not wearing the clothes I gave you?"
An Shujing was a little bitter and squirmed her lower lips, but said nothing.
An Shulan pouted, her face full of grievances.
An Shuqin, who was still fierce, said hurriedly: "My sister-in-law, my mother put away all the clothes and said she wanted to give it to her uncle's cousin and cousin."
It has been half a month since I walked into this world in this book. An Shulan has gradually accepted her fate and has begun to adapt to this era.
But what she could never adapt was that she had a mother who favored boys over girls.
When she read this novel "The Best Life in 60s", she thought that grandma, aunt and sister-in-law were all the best and were the big villains.
It's still a bit pitiful to Fang Xiu'e.
But when she really became Fang Xiu'e's daughter, An Shuqin realized that there must be something hateful about a poor person.
Moreover, when she truly lives in this world, An Shuqin truly feels that some things are not like what she sees in the book.
The second aunt Zhang Guizhi is indeed smart and selfish, but she likes to be a good person. She is a sweet and bitter person.
But grandma, Aunt Wan, is not an unreasonable old shrew.
Except for her biased little daughter An Baoni, Aunt Wan treats her four sons almost equally.
An Shuqin has been wearing it for a short time and has never seen An Guodong yet.
But as for the three sons of the An family, Aunt Wan treated them the same and did not deliberately oppress the three rooms.
The reason why the third bedroom has lived so hard is to be precisely because the four daughters of the third bedroom are so miserable is largely due to Fang Xiu'e himself.
How can a mother ask others to feel sorry for her children if she doesn’t care about her?
Now it’s hard for others to feel distressed. Before the top second aunt was doing well, Fang Xiu'e jumped out to take action herself.
"What? What? The clothes you gave to you, Fang Xiu'e, is going to send back to her parents' home?"
Before Annie could speak, Aunt Wan exploded first.
She saw her eyebrows standing up and shouting at the top of her throat: "Fang Xiu'e, come here for me!"
Fang Xiu'e is helping in the kitchen.
Although Annie said yesterday that the An family had a clear division of labor, she still took the initiative to go to the kitchen to work due to her habits.
Zhang Guizhi has been working all day and is so tired that he can't get up.
Li Fang was preparing to cook with a grumbling heart. Seeing Fang Xiu'e coming in with a cowardly look on her face, she simply threw everything to her, while she stood aside and watched with her hands.
When Fang Xiu'e heard Aunt Wan's voice, she was so scared that she shivered and almost threw out the rice spoon in her hand.
"...Mom, are you looking for me?"
Fang Xiu'e didn't care to wipe her hands, and ran away with wet hands, shrank her shoulders, lowered her head, and asked timidly.
"Okay, Fang Xiu'e, she looks honest, but she is raped inside. She thinks about pulling things to her parents' house all day long. If it's your own earnings, it's fine. You'll even snatch the clothes my Baoer gave to a few girls."
Aunt Wan was already angry. Seeing Fang Xiu'e's shriveling appearance, she became even more angry. She pointed at her nose and scolded her.
"Our An family has always been raised like a son, and the daughter is raised. You prefer boys over girls. You learn from it too. Before others can beat your daughter, your biological mother will bully you first."
Since Aunt Wan knew that her daughter wanted to "subjugate" a few girls, she had to work hard to make the girls divorced from her own mother.
"If you don't say anything else, just go to school. When Jiayuan and the others were in school, I asked you if you want a few girls to go too. As a result, you don't agree and think it's a waste of money."
Aunt Wan did not wrongly accuse Fang Xiu'e. Fang Xiu'e really didn't plan to let her daughters study.
Of course, Aunt Wan never asked at all.
However, if Fang Xiu'e took the initiative to ask, Aunt Wan would not refuse.
Aunt Wan cursed, "It's okay to work at home, but your children don't work, but you still took Erni, Sanni and Sini to the ground. The whole village muttered, thinking that it was me, the grandmother, who was cruel and forced a few granddaughters to go to the ground to do rough work."
"You said myself, did I force you to take your children to the ground?"
Aunt Wan's finger poked Fang Xiu'e's face.
Fang Xiu'e waved her hand in a hurry, "No, no, mom, mom didn't force me. Yes, I think the child is old and it's time to go to the ground to earn work points."
Fang Xiu'e felt wronged. Isn't the girls in the village all coming here like this?
When I was younger, I helped with some housework, and when I was older, I went to the floor.
Even she was in her teens and went to work with her parents.
Why can't it work when it comes to my daughter?
Fang Xiu'e is not a person who is good at hiding her emotions. She brings everything she thinks in her heart and looks out.
All the three of An Shujing sisters saw it and felt more and more sad.
They have always thought they were a girl and grandma didn't like it, so they couldn't eat well, dress well, and had to work with them.
But the facts tell them that grandma doesn't care whether they are men or women at all. They really don't care about them. Their biological mother is their own mother.
Fortunately, they usually think it’s not easy for mothers, but as a result, mothers’ difficult for mothers, they all ask for their own reasons.
An Shujing and the others couldn't understand it before, but they all understood it these two days.
Take today for example-
Yesterday, my grandmother and aunt told me that the second aunt and fourth aunt were responsible for the work at home.
But early this morning, my mother called them up and asked them to go to the kitchen to help.
An Shuqin replied boldly, "My grandma said she asked Aunt Si to do it, and we still have to go to school."
Fang Xiu'e did not force her three daughters to work anymore, but she still went to the kitchen by herself.
After experiencing this incident personally, the three An Shujing sisters couldn't help but think about whether it was the same in the past.
No one at home bullies their third wife at all, but my mother insists on making her look like a victim!
"Okay, I can see that your family is all the same."
Aunt Wan cursed and felt refreshed. She waved her hand, "I won't waste spitting with you anymore. Don't worry about these girls in the future. Let them follow Baoer. Humph, if you don't feel sorry for An's daughter, then there will naturally be someone who feels sorry for you."
Annie looked at Fang Xiu'e and thought the arrangement was good.
The most miserable thing about the third generation of An’s family is these four girls, who changed their destiny, and her second task was half completed.
Thinking of other tasks, Annie took advantage of the lunch time to go home for dinner and pulled Aunt Wan to whisper: "Mom, I remember that my sister-in-law still receives dividends every year?"
