Liu Mei looked at the two bags of rice and flour, imagining the white dried rice and big steamed buns, and swallowed her saliva unconsciously. Then looking at the old meat, she was almost starving to death.
Ge Mingyu didn't waste any time. The two of them quickly picked up the kitchen knives and started working, their strength returned.
In the house, just as Xia Qiyue told the old lady to take the old couple to buy clothes, An Zicheng barged in with his two sons.
"Mom, what do you mean by the second child's house? They won't let us stay in a nice house, and they kicked us out!" An Zicheng relied on his mother's preference for him and didn't care about anything she said.
But this time, the iron plate was kicked. Before Mrs. Lao An could say anything, Mr. Lao An scolded with a straight face, "Boss, as the eldest brother, what are you talking about? The second brother's family is here to help us."
The second elder has gone to clean up the house, why did he throw you out? That room will belong to me and your mother from now on! Just don’t go in!"
Xia Qiyue raised her eyes, what she said was beautiful. From now on, they belong to the old couple. They are really not outsiders.
"Dad, what do you mean? That room was given to you? Then where should we live? The second and third brothers have already occupied the other room, so why don't we let us sleep outside in the big room? Then what are we doing here?"
Mrs. An looked at her beloved son and said with some embarrassment, "Old man, why don't we let the eldest son and the two children live with us! This kang is big enough to fit in!"
Boss Lao An didn't think so, but he glanced at his fourth daughter-in-law, who was standing on the ground with a secretive expression, and decisively refused.
"No, that was arranged by the fourth and fourth elders. Don't make blind decisions! Boss, you can squeeze in with your brothers! If you don't behave like this, I'll break your legs!"
I'm afraid that their eccentric scene will offend the fourth daughter-in-law, and the relationship that was finally repaired will break down again.
In Lao An's heart, Xia Qiyue's kindness to them was to take the initiative to repair their relationship, so he didn't want his most capable daughter-in-law to be separated from him anymore.
In many conveniences, Boss Lao An is more rational than the old lady. He can pamper the boss. After the fifth boss got twenty taels a month, his heart has turned to the fifth boss. Now, the fourth daughter-in-law is the most capable in the family.
After his daughter-in-law treated him well, his balance tilted.
The eldest son and grandson will suffer a little at most, but they can keep their stomachs full. Just now, the fourth and fourth family members said that they will eat meat dumplings during the Chinese New Year tomorrow. There are ten pounds of meat. It seems that the whole family will be full.
, as long as you have a full stomach and a little bit of sleep, what will happen?
Moreover, they came a day earlier and the fourth daughter-in-law didn’t say anything. If they let the boss behave like this again, what would the fourth daughter-in-law do if she gets angry?
"Dad... No matter how old you are, you can't sleep with so many people!" An Zicheng wanted to show off, frowning and trying to act, but his father had already noticed it and put on a black face.
"Then you take your wife and children back to Baijia Village to celebrate the New Year! It's not crowded there!"
"Oh, okay, okay! Boss, listen to your father and get out quickly. This is your fourth brother-in-law's room. As the eldest brother, you can't stay here!" Mrs. An quickly reconciled and asked Anzi to
Get out of the city and don't make the old man angry.
After living for more than half of her life, how could she not see that the old man's heart is now partial to the fourth child's room, and then there is the fifth child, and the eldest brother no longer knows where he is.
If the boss continues to make trouble, the old man will not care about him.
An Zicheng wanted to say something else, but Old An's wife ran over with a glance. She immediately understood what his mother meant and went out with her tail between her legs.
Xia Qiyue finally figured it out. It turned out that this old couple was not without breakthroughs. As long as she gave them some sweetness, they would be on her side.
If she can really maintain this attitude, then it is not impossible for her to support them. Not only will she gain benefits, she will also cure other brothers and sisters, and she will also have a good reputation, which will also be good for Xuan'er's career in the future.
"Father, mother, don't worry. Although there is no kang in the west wing, it is still warm with a fire. I am the same. Although I have earned some money, I can't afford to rent a big house. How about this? I will leave the eldest and second brothers in the house at night.
The third brother and the others were arranged to live in the west wing room... The room in Xinghe really couldn't accommodate that many people... Lao Wu had lived with him for a while and got used to it, so he let them live together, and then arranged the three nephews there. If it can be crowded,
It's okay for my eldest brother and the others to live there, but the sisters-in-law...men and women are different, so it's hard to squeeze in together."
Boss Lao An was even more satisfied with Xia Qiyue's arrangement. He nodded unconsciously and thought to himself, why didn't he find out before that the fourth family member was so good at doing things?
"Fourth family member, please look at the arrangements. We have lived in the big shed for so long, so we can't make do with anything!" So Boss Lao An directly gave the power to Xia Qiyue.
Xia Qiyue was satisfied. Instead of arguing with those people and fighting for space and rooms, why not please a boss Lao An and let her be squashed and rounded at once? Wouldn't that be nice?
"Okay, thank you dad for being considerate of your daughter-in-law." Xia Qiyue pretended to be well-behaved.
The old couple also became more and more comfortable. They never thought that Xia Qiyue used them to treat other people to death, so that they could not become monsters and had to serve her obediently.
"Okay, okay, don't worry about those careless ones. Just arrange it like this. Let a few little ones sleep in the room, and let them make do with the other few people! You are tired too, sit down and rest for a while.
!" Mrs. An said with a smile.
Looking at it this way, she is not particularly ugly, and there is still a little kindness that flashes across her face.
But Xia Qiyue knew that this old woman wanted to take a step back and make progress by sitting down to rest when she was tired. He wanted her to take the initiative to buy clothes and shoes for them again.
"Mom, I'm not tired. Let's go to the clothing store quickly and buy some warm clothes and shoes for you and me, otherwise they will close!"
Xia Qiyue knew that the sweetness of words was still not worth the substance, so she did not hesitate to fulfill the promise she just made to the two of them, and she actually bought it.
If this old couple can really eliminate more troubles for her in the future, then they will just turn a blind eye to what happened in the past. Fortunately, they are both the grandparents of their two children. She can't be her parents, but she can still raise them.
It’s on.
"Oh, this kid is so filial. Aren't you tired? Let's go then!" This was what Old An was waiting for. She couldn't shirk it anymore. She was afraid that Xia Qiyue wouldn't buy it for herself, so she hurriedly left.
land.
Xia Qiyue saw that the shoes on the old lady's feet were actually single-lining, with a small hole in them. She remembered that the old lady had money in her hand. Not only did she lend two taels to Lao An's family, but she also sold two taels.
A granddaughter also received fourteen taels, which was in the hands of the old woman.
Why is she so embarrassed? Her feet must be cold, but she insists on wearing these shoes?
Xia Qiyue calmly looked at Mr. Lao An's clothes, which were also thin and tattered. He came to the conclusion that these two people were detained and searched, and even he was reluctant to spend money.
