She took the money upstairs, found a big dictionary, divided the 2,700 yuan into several parts, and carefully packed them neatly inside.
She kept the remaining fifty yuan with her, planning to buy more food to eat tomorrow.
For more than a week, my sister-in-law and Ouyang Mei have always been clamoring to eat hot pot because the weather is cold. Hot pot requires soup and meat, which is definitely more expensive.
Brother Yuan's salary is only so small, and he still has to save it for the elderly at home. If he gives it directly to him, he will definitely not want it. She should buy it when she gets off work, or during her lunch break.
She took out twenty yuan and put it in the military-colored cross-body bag, and put the remaining thirty yuan in the drawer as spare money.
Seeing that the sky outside was getting darker and it seemed like it was going to snow again in the evening, she hurried to the balcony to collect dry clothes.
At this time, the voices of my sister-in-law and Ouyang Mei came from downstairs.
My sister-in-law has the key to the rental house and can come and go freely.
Ouyang Mei said that her eldest brother's truck was blocked by heavy snow on the road. Now it is more than three counties away from the city. She can only wait for two days for the snow to melt and the road to open before bringing the goods to Rongcheng.
In this era, there were no expressways, few provincial roads, and transportation was still very inconvenient.
If it snows heavily for two or three days, it will easily block roads and so on. Trucks coming and going will have no choice but to wait.
My sister-in-law and Ouyang Mei were happy, saying that they didn't have to start work yet, and it was nice to stay at home in the cold weather, eating and drinking.
Brother Yuan is a diligent person. When he heard what they said, he looked unhappy.
It didn't snow the day before yesterday and yesterday, so my sister-in-law and Ouyang Mei stayed out all day and didn't come back until evening to eat hot pot.
Brother Yuan asked them where they were, but the sister-in-law hesitated and said they were going shopping.
But they didn't really believe it. They had an intuition that she might be hiding something, but since Ouyang Mei was present, Brother Yuan couldn't scold her and not go to Lin Cong.
They didn't come back until they went out for a whole day last night. Brother Yuan left his sister-in-law in the kitchen and told her that she could no longer have contact with the man, otherwise he would have to borrow a donkey cart and send her back to Chengjia Village even in the heavy snow.
.
My sister-in-law went back to the next door angrily with red eyes.
Today is Sunday and she doesn't have to go to work. Brother Yuan said that a friend asked him to help with something. He left in a hurry after lunch and hasn't come back yet.
She was busy translating in the afternoon, and later went to collect money with Ah Hu. She didn't know if her sister-in-law and the others were next door.
She looked down from the balcony for a few times and saw a set of footprints walking from the alley into the next door, and then the two of them came out together and turned into the front door of her house.
The snow has not yet melted, but her eyes are still sharp and she can see very clearly.
Is it my sister-in-law who has gone out, or Ouyang Mei?
She thoughtfully carried the clothes back to the room, opened the door, lit the charcoal stove, and put the clothes next to them to bake.
At this time, there was the sound of the door opening and the sound of bicycles coming from outside.
Brother Yuan should be back.
"Brother! You are finally back! We have something to tell you!"
Xue Ling smiled sweetly, poured a glass of hot water, and walked quickly downstairs.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I came down the stairs, I heard my sister-in-law scolding someone in her naturally sharp voice, and it was her who was scolding her!
——"Brother! Sister Mei saw this with her own eyes! A man came to see my sister-in-law, entered the house and chatted for a long time, and then drove her away! He was a burly man!"
"Sister-in-law is so shameless! While you were away, brother, she hooked up with other men! They kept laughing and laughing, and even the neighbors heard it!"
"The man took her out and stayed there for more than an hour before he came back! Before he left, the man was still sneaky and afraid that you would come back!"
"Brother! This is absolutely true. You have to believe it! Women work outside and go out early and come back late. You have to watch closely, otherwise it will cause a family scandal! My sister-in-law is definitely bullying you for being honest!"
Xue Ling paused, the smile on her face gradually faded away, her fingers holding the water glass tightened, and she felt very angry.
This sister-in-law is really worried that the world will not be in chaos!
I thought that since she was young, her husband's only sister, and a member of her own family, she should endure it as much as she could, and tolerate peace and quiet for a while.
When she finds a good family to marry in the future, she may not see him more than once a year.
Who knew she was going too far!
Listening to the wind is like rain, but also instigating the relationship between the couple - which one is really intolerable and what is intolerable!
She wanted to go down, but she couldn't help but feel a little curious. She wanted to hear what brother Yuan would say.
The sister-in-law didn't let her go yet and continued to chatter.
Ouyang Mei interjected in a low voice: "Ayuan, why don't you say anything? I saw this with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears. You are busy with work and leave early and come back late. You may not know very clearly about some things. After all, you just got married not long ago.
, I definitely don’t know her well enough. From now on, you’d better keep a close eye on her.”
The strange thing is that Cheng Tianyuan never spoke.
The sister-in-law seemed angry and loudly said: "Brother! What are you cooking for?! Do you want to cook for her? She is a daughter-in-law and doesn't cook for three meals. She has to do everything and you have to serve her! Don't think that she will
It’s great to make a few stinky money! Maybe that money is all dirty money!”
"Pa!" A crisp slap sounded!
The next moment, the kitchen suddenly became quiet!
After a long while, my sister-in-law cried loudly, "Wow!"
Cheng Tianyuan yelled: "You still dare to cry! You dare to say anything! I really want to tear your mouth out! You are just like those three aunts and six women in the village, stupid and gossipy! Who is your sister-in-law? I am
The husband knows best!"
"That person who comes to the door must be her friend or my friend! When friends come and go, you will be ambiguous about it. I slap you once to teach you a lesson. In the future, unless you see it with your own eyes, the other person will say it with your own eyes.
Admit it, otherwise you can’t make random judgments!”
"She is your sister-in-law, my daughter-in-law! As the old saying goes, the eldest sister-in-law is the mother, but you disrespect her so much! You have dirty minds and think about other people all day long! You are really hopeless!"
My sister-in-law twitched and didn't dare to speak again.
Cheng Tianyuan refused to spare her, and shouted: "From today on, if you dare to say anything wrong about your sister-in-law in front of me, I will slap you! Let me tell you, she paid for this rental house. Here
She bought most of everything in the head! You eat her stuff, live in her stuff, and yet you dare to slander her out of thin air! I will find a donkey cart to take you home tomorrow!"
My sister-in-law was sobbing, and she became angry and shouted: "How do you know that I am slandering you! Men are coming to your door!"
"Shut up!" Cheng Tianyuan turned pale with anger and raised his hand to slap her again——
"Brother Yuan!" Xue Ling walked down quickly.
When Cheng Tianyuan saw her coming, he ducked his eyes twice and put his hand down.
"You didn't hear anything just now, did you? They were just talking nonsense, so don't take it to heart."
Xue Ling felt warm in her heart and handed him the cup in her hand with a smile.
"It's very cold outside. Let's drink a cup of hot water first."
Cheng Tianyuan was so angry that he took the water and drank it in large gulps.
Ouyang Mei on the side glared at her and quickly turned her eyes away.
Cheng Tianfang stared at her with resentment on his face, his mouth pouted, and his eyes full of grievances and complaints.
