Chapter 1334 The short-lived cousin of the heroine of Wan Yuan Household (16)
Xu Yin returned to the dormitory after get off work. Before she even entered the room, she was stopped by housewives sitting on the patio knitting sweaters and chatting:
"Xiao Xu! Go and see the vegetable patch you have behind the house."
"What's wrong?" Xu Yin asked. In fact, she knew it well.
One of the aunts said quickly: "That old Zhu's wife, it's okay to be greedy for petty gains. She just picked the vegetables you planted on the land you worked so hard for. She just picked them with a basket. Even if she picked them, she stepped on them."
It’s rotten a lot, what a sin!”
"Xiao Xu, Lao Zhu's family has picked vegetables in your vegetable patch many times, and every time they have a whole basket. If they can't finish it, they secretly sell it. I told her how her family's food has improved a lot recently.
She brought fish and shrimps for two days in a row, and I saw her bring back a piece of meat this morning..."
Xu Yin: "..."
This seems to be a bit exaggerated. The baskets of vegetables she lost could not be replaced by a meal of seafood and meat no matter how expensive they were.
This year is not like the future - ecological and organic vegetables can still be sold more expensive than meat.
But Lao Zhu's wife overturned her car, which she liked to see.
Xu Yin showed off her acting skills as a movie queen and played the role of a little white flower: "Ah? I thought it was a wild cat and dog running wild in my vegetable field, but I never thought it was man-made... She just picked it, why did she have to do it?"
The vegetables were trampled to pieces, and I also paid for the seeds, eh eh eh eh..."
Everyone hurriedly comforted:
"Don't worry, Xiao Xu, the Women's Federation will make the decision for you. What Lao Zhu's wife did this time is indeed too much!"
"She is used to taking advantage of others."
"In my opinion, she not only took advantage of Xiao Xu this time, but also had revenge. Have you forgotten? The day Xiao Xu first moved in, she wanted to take advantage of Xiao Xu but failed. She probably had a grudge, otherwise she would pick vegetables
Just picking vegetables, why do you trample them to pieces? The food is wasted and the sky is like thunder!"
"This old Zhu's wife! She is so small-minded!"
"If it were my vegetable plot, she would treat her like this. Even the compensation would not be enough to relieve my anger."
"When it comes to losing money, given how stingy Lao Zhu's wife is, will she be willing to do it?"
"You have to pay even if you don't want to!"
Xu Yin thanked everyone gratefully, then ran back to the back of the bungalow, cut off all the cooked cabbages, and divided them into small bundles per person:
"Aunts, if it weren't for you, I would still be kept in the dark. I wouldn't say thank you for your kindness, and I wouldn't be able to give you any valuable gifts to add vegetables to the evening. In fact, I grow so much.
I felt that weeds would easily grow on the land, so I opened it all to grow vegetables. How could I eat so much by myself? If the aunties want to eat, just go and pick it. Don’t be like...cough, I believe the aunties are the same as me.
, they are all good people who cherish food and avoid wasting it!"
A good person card was handed out and received countless looks of relief and approval.
"Don't worry, Xiao Xu, we will look after the vegetable patch for you when you are not at home."
"That's right, we'll knit sweaters on the patio if we have nothing to do. I'll keep an eye out for you then."
"Actually, it's just Lao Zhu's wife who likes to do little things and take advantage of her. The other people in our building are pretty good."
Xu Yin smiled and nodded: "I believe in the aunts!"
From this day on, there was another group of housewives who took it upon themselves to guard Xu Yin's vegetable garden.
With their surveillance, even if there was a second Lao Zhu's wife in the building, she would not dare to steal food in front of everyone. Besides, there are only a few people like Lao Zhu's wife who love to take advantage and are vindictive.
When Xu Yin was ripe with Xiaotangcai, she gave a handful to the warm-hearted housewives and their family, and distributed the rest to her hotel colleagues.
Lao Zhu's daughter-in-law had been in the hospital for three days and took medicine for three days. The itching was finally gone, and the red rash had faded a bit. When she went home and counted the money, she was so angry that she said a trip to the hospital cost her nineteen yuan.
Even if all three baskets of cabbage are sold, they will only be sold for one or two yuan, which is a huge loss!
Even more losses are yet to come——
I don't know who complained to the Women's Federation, which intervened in the incident, severely criticized Lao Zhu's wife's bad behavior, and asked her to compensate Comrade Xu Yin for her losses.
The three baskets of cabbage plus the vegetables in the field that she trampled to pieces cost her six yuan.
I didn’t take advantage of it, so I spent more than 25 yuan in total, so I paid a lot of money!
I also saw that other unemployed housewives had received the Xiaotang vegetables that Xu Yin had delivered to their door, but she had not. She was even more angry and wanted to rush to the vegetable field and trample all the vegetables to pieces.
But Lao Zhu warned her, saying that the Women's Federation was still watching and told her not to cause trouble again, otherwise he might be ruined as a model worker this year.
A model worker loses his job? Not only does he lose his honor, he also loses an extra bonus.
Lao Zhu's wife has now become much more honest.
After Xu Yin waited for the Chinese cabbage and Chinese cabbage to start growing, she loosened the soil, plowed it in the sun for two days, then watered it thoroughly, and planted spring corn, which can be used as both a staple food and a snack.
Then came the two days off in May.
She carried her small bundle and caught the first tram home.
For two days in a row, Wang Zhao didn't buy any stir-fried or steamed vegetables made by Xu Yin. He watched as his brother Rui started to eat millet porridge again. He couldn't even take a few bites of Master Hong's specialty white steamed buns. It was obvious that he
That cunning appetite has been cultivated again. It is really easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality!
"Brother Rui, I found out that Master Xu didn't quit his job, but took the past two days off and went home. Her family is from the lower county, and it was too busy to go back and forth on the same day, so the hotel agreed to let her take two days off for half a month.
.I’ll be back tomorrow evening.”
Rui Xijin lay lazily on the rocking chair, feeling the warm evening breeze in early summer, and said "hmm" with a nasal voice, and then asked: "When will we dig people to come to Ruifu Tower?"
"I'm trying."
How dare Wang Zhao say that he almost screwed up.
If he hadn't tried his best to stop her, his overly enthusiastic seven aunts and eight aunts would have gone to Master Xu to propose marriage with a festive door-to-door gift.
Not to mention that the person he mentioned was Brother Rui’s relative.
It really cost him his life!
Rui Xijin snorted softly: "I think you are quite idle, but I don't see how hard you work."
"..." Wang Zhao choked, thinking that I was tired!
"Brother Rui, don't worry. I will go find her when Master Xu comes back and try to persuade her to come to Ruifu Tower."
"Find a way? So you haven't figured out a way yet?"
"..."
Think about it! Isn’t that a waste of time?
"Well, the method I thought of before didn't work very well. I think Master Xu doesn't have any requirements for salary or accommodation. He is a happy-go-lucky person. The more people like this, the harder it is to find them."
Hearing this, Rui Xijin was silent for a long time, and then slowly said: "Tell him, except Ruifu Tower, you can give him everything else he wants. Including the returned house."
Wang Zhao was extremely shocked: "That house, Uncle Rui said it was for you to get a wife back then! Brother Rui, do you think the damage was too serious and you dislike it? Then don't give it away! No matter the location or the orientation of the house, it is...
It’s not bad. If you think it’s shabby, I’ll find someone to repair it after you take it back…”
