Chapter 33 Not telling the truth
"Your three sister-in-laws have them all. These are bought for you. Keep them. She is an eighteen-year-old girl. She should dress up better."
Xu Shiyan was very satisfied with what his sister said.
How about saying that my sister is still a pain in the ass? At least he has other people in his eyes, and he knows how to give way to his sister-in-law.
"Oh, then I'll take it all, thank you third brother and third sister-in-law."
Xu Shiqin was relieved this time, and hurriedly took all her belongings away, and even put on her leather shoes to try, just right, she couldn't be more beautiful.
"Eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, I bought these for a few children, and saved them for Chinese New Year to make clothes for them."
Xu Shiyan dug out some more pieces of fabric, the girl's is pink printed twill, the boy's is dark blue twill.
Any conflicts among adults have nothing to do with Xiaowa.
Besides, these nephews and nieces are all good when they grow up, and Xu Shiyan doesn't feel bad at all for buying things for them.
Xue Xiulin and Wei Mingrong happily snatched the fabric, held it in their hands and looked at it.
The fabric is dense and thick, and the color is bright, which is much better than that of the supply and marketing cooperative.
The only shortcoming is that it is too small. I bought it according to the height of the children, and it is just enough to make a top, which is not suitable for adults.
"Third brother, you bought these?"
Wei Mingrong put down the fabric, stretched his head to look at the two bulging backpacks, no, there must be a lot of things inside.
"I brought it for my family, that's all. What's wrong? What else is the second sister-in-law thinking?"
Xu Shiyan snorted softly. Could it be that his little uncle is still allowed to buy things for his sister-in-law? Is that plausible?
Wei Mingrong really wanted to ask, why are these things? Even if they don’t buy them for the two sister-in-laws, at least they have to buy something for the brothers, right?
Before he could speak, footsteps sounded outside, and Xu Chenghou and his three sons came in from outside.
At the beginning of September, not far from the autumn harvest, in order not to delay the team's work, Xu Chenghou led his son to work on the private plot and the small wasteland, and picked up the ones that could be brought back in advance.
These two days, I am going back to cut yellow smoke.
Using a special yellow smoke knife, cut off the leaves from the stem one by one, tie them with ropes at home, and then dry them in the air.
In autumn, the sun is good, the rain is little, and the air is dry. The yellow tobacco leaves can be dried in a few days by hanging on the shelf.
The dried yellow smoke can’t be put away directly, it has to be exposed outside, only the smoke that has been exposed can be smoked, if it is not exposed, the smoke will be spicy and bitter.
Put the dewed yellow smoke in place, dampen it slightly, put it into a special box along the head and tail, tie the end of the petiole with a straw rope, and compact it, it is the finished yellow smoke.
At that time, you can keep it at home to smoke, or go out and sell it.
The Xu family planted half an acre of yellow tobacco. Apart from what Xu Chenghou smoked every year, he could sell it for a lot of money, which was a good income.
"Ahem, I heard that the third child is back?" Xu Chenghou coughed dryly twice as soon as he entered the room, and put on his fatherly airs again.
If according to Xu Chenghou's intention, the third son would have to be scolded first when he comes back, how can he be so bad at life?
But Zhou Guilan's threat was still in his ears that day, Xu Chenghou was really afraid that his wife would divorce him, so he didn't dare to say it.
Xu Chenghou himself has a somewhat fierce face, and he can't pretend to be kind.
This superficial smile, neither embarrassed nor embarrassed, is actually even scarier.
"I'm back, I'm back smoothly." Zhou Guilan was quite happy and said with a smile.
"Come and see, what did my son buy us? This is food, this is fabric for the two of us, and I bought a quilt for the fourth and fifth."
Zhou Guilan wanted to ease the relationship between the father and son, and pointed to the pile of things on the kang.
Xu Chenghou took a look, hey, there are quite a lot of things, "Why do you buy so much cloth? Where did you get the cloth ticket?"
To buy cloth these days, you have to have a cloth ticket. Each household in the agency has a limited amount of cloth tickets every year. If a family puts it together, it’s good enough to buy two sets of clothes.
The pile on the kang may have to be saved for several years.
"We went by coincidence, just in time for a batch of free tickets to arrive at the department store in the city. I thought it looked good, so I brought some for my family."
Chemical fibers don’t need cloth tickets, they are more expensive, but they are more wear-resistant and wear-resistant, so they are more suitable than cotton cloth.
"Oh, it's probably not cheap. After buying so many things, the two sticks are worth a lot, right?"
Xu Chenghou nodded and asked the question that everyone was most concerned about.
"Well, it's okay, two sticks are sold for 1600 yuan, and the black blind man's guts are 500 yuan."
Xu Shiyan didn't tell the truth, which is enough to make people jealous. If he told the truth, his brothers and sisters-in-law would definitely make a fuss.
The amount of money was similar to what everyone had guessed. Xu Chenghou didn't doubt anything, just nodded.
"If you have money, save it well, don't spend it recklessly. You won't spend money like this in the future, it's not the way to live."
As Xu Chenghou said, he glanced at Zhou Guilan.
Seeing Zhou Guilan staring at him unkindly, what he originally wanted to say was swallowed back in his stomach.
In the past two days, the sons have been urging Xu Chenghou, saying that when Xu Shiyan comes back, he will hand over the money to the family.
Xu Chenghou actually has the same intentions. There are two sons who are not married, and a daughter who is not out of the house. There are a lot of places to spend money.
Even if Xu Shiyan is separated, he is still a member of the old Xu family. Now that he has money, he should return the money back to his family. This is what he deserves.
But Zhou Guilan kept warning Xu Chenghou that if he dared to embarrass his third son again, Zhou Guilan would divorce him.
The old couple have been married for half their lives, they have been fighting and fighting all these years and they have not been separated, especially when they are old.
Xu Chenghou was afraid of his wife, so he couldn't ask for money in a straightforward manner, so he spoke to Xu Shiyan, hoping that his third son would take the initiative.
Unfortunately, Xu Shiyan didn't take this issue at all, and just nodded when he heard his father's words.
"Well, I know, I don't have a house to live in yet.
Let's see whether to build one next year or buy a ready-made one. It is estimated that it will cost a lot of money. "
One sentence blocked the possibility of Xu Chenghou speaking again.
Your son doesn’t have a house yet, and he’s still living in someone else’s house.
how? Are you ashamed to ask for the money so that your grandson will be born in someone else's house?
Xu Chenghou was choked up, if this happened before, he would definitely be angry and want to curse.
But now that your son's wings are hardened, if you really want to scold him, he turns around and leaves, what else do you have?
What's more, the old wife is staring at her like a tiger, assuming that if he dares to swear, she will fight him desperately today.
Okay, don’t say anything, hold back.
Therefore, Xu Chenghou ignored the eldest son who kept winking at him, and just lowered his head, loaded a bag of cigarettes, and started smoking.
Xu Chenghou was stunned, and Xu Shixian was still not feeling well. Just as he was about to talk, he heard footsteps outside again.
"Old brother Xu, I heard that your third son is back? Just right, shouldn't we also talk about it?
Your family's third son picked up my family's black blind man, what is the matter? "
Well, the chapter updated yesterday probably made many readers uncomfortable because of the matter of the sixth sister of the Xu family.
The prototype of the sixth younger sister of the Xu family is my real aunt, and our aunt and nephew have a very good relationship. So there is no such thing as deliberate smearing, it's just a pity.
Why write rebirth? What did you do when you were reborn? In my opinion, it should be to make up for the regrets and shortcomings of the previous life.
Think about it, if a person has a prosperous life, a harmonious husband and wife, and filial sons and daughters in this life, he probably will never be reborn.
It is precisely because there were too many regrets in the previous life, so starting over, we must change the ending of the previous life, and everyone sees this kind of change.
The protagonist in the article has also thought about treating Liumei, but with the current strength and vision of the protagonist, it is not enough, so the protagonist has to work harder to earn money. In the future, it will be cured.
