Upon waking up, Lin Xiangyi realized she had transmigrated into a period novel written by her stepsister. Her stepsister was the protagonist, and she was the villainous female supporting character....
For breakfast today, Xie's mother made a pot of porridge, steamed sweet potatoes, taro, and four eggs.
Sun Lanjun didn't want to eat anything else but eggs. She had just seen Xie Qingxiao eating breakfast, and Lin Xiangyi was the only one left. She thought she could just leave an egg for Lin Xiangyi.
She and Xiaoni ate three.
As a result, Xie's mother came in and told her that she, Xiaoni, Lin Xiangyi and Xie Qingxiao each had one egg, and Xie Qingxiao didn't eat it, so she left it for Lin Xiangyi.
In other words, she and Xiaoni can only eat two.
Sun Lanjun agreed on the surface, but in her heart she was about to curse Xie's mother to death. What's wrong with them eating one more? They don't come back every day.
Even if two must be left for Lin Xiangyi, now that they are back, why doesn't this old woman know how to cook two more? She is so stingy.
If Xie's mother knew what she was thinking, she would probably want to drown her with her saliva. She didn't come back often, but she ate a lot of eggs.
She was reluctant to eat the eggs that her family had saved, so she either sold them or sent them to the county town for them to eat.
You still have the nerve to say that she is stingy?
After breakfast, Sun Lanjun and Xiaoni played in the yard. Seeing Xie's mother busying around, she looked at Lin Xiangyi's door frequently, but the door was not opened for a long time.
He is so lazy, just like Xie Qingxiao before. It's true that birds of a feather flock together.
Sun Lanjun despised Lin Xiangyi in her heart. She had no formal job and she didn't even know how to get up early to help her mother-in-law with work.
If she didn't have a formal job, she would never dare to do this.
The old woman is really something. She doesn't even use Lin Xiangyi. Where did she get the energy to knock on the door and call her out to work yesterday? She is always partial to Lin Xiangyi!
Sun Lanjun originally wanted to take the initiative to help Xie's mother with some work because she had a request for her, but after seeing this, she gave up.
As a daughter-in-law, Lin Xiangyi slept so late and didn’t get up. Why should she help Xie’s mother with work?
So she felt at ease playing with Xiao Ni.
Xie's mother didn't expect Sun Lanjun to work, so she didn't ask her to do anything.
There wasn't much work anyway, just making breakfast and washing her and Xie's father's clothes. Xie's father went to feed the chickens and pigs, so she didn't need to do it.
It is now much easier than before we invited Aunt Xie and Su Xiaomei to come and do the work.
Around eight o'clock, Aunt Xie, Su Xiaomei and Xie Guoqiang came over.
Aunt Xie saw Sun Lanjun in the yard and greeted her with a smile: "Hey? A Rong's wife is back?"
"Yes, it's summer vacation now, so I brought Xiaoni back to visit grandpa and grandma," Sun Lanjun said with a smile.
Aunt Xie immediately praised: "That's great. Usually your parents always say that they miss you and Xiaoni. It's like this when people get old. They like to be lively. When you have time in the future, bring Xiaoni back to see them more often."
Both knew that the other's words were nice.
Aunt Xie knew who Sun Lanjun was.
Sun Lanjun also knew that what Aunt Xie said was all lies. It was possible that the old woman wanted Xiaoni to come back, but she missed her? Haha, I'm afraid she would rather she never come back.
"Where's Xiangyi?" Aunt Xie was not familiar with Sun Lanjun, and she had only often heard of her from Xie's mother. She had a bad preconceived impression of her, so she thought of looking for Lin Xiangyi.
Speaking of Lin Xiangyi, Sun Lanjun's smile faded a lot, and her tone was hard to conceal with malice: "She hasn't gotten up yet. I have to say, my sister-in-law can really sleep. She went back to her room to rest at around 8 o'clock last night, and she hasn't woken up yet. My mother has been working all morning."
She wanted to say that Lin Xiangyi was lazy.
It's already light before six o'clock, especially the people in the country, they get up very early. My mother-in-law has been working all morning, but Lin Xiangyi hasn't gotten up yet. Isn't that just laziness?
Aunt Xie paused.
When she first came to help with the work, she was also surprised to see that Lin Xiangyi didn't get up until eight o'clock, but to say that Lin Xiangyi was lazy... Compared to those of them who get up early and go to bed late, Lin Xiangyi is indeed not diligent.
But she has the capital to be lazy. She is so smart and can make so much money. Her man is still so devoted to her. What's wrong with being lazy? If she had the brains to make money, she would be lazy too!
What's wrong with Arong's wife? Her tone sounded so obviously disgusted and complaining. After all, they are family, so why does she want to deliberately ruin Xiangyi's reputation?
However, what Sun Lanjun said was also true. Although her malicious intent was revealed, she did not express it directly.
Aunt Xie was reluctant to help Lin Xiangyi identify herself, but she had completely lost her good impression of Sun Lanjun.
When she heard Xie's mother talk about Sun Lanjun's personality before, she thought that Sun Lanjun came from a good family and her personality was inevitably a bit spoiled, so she advised Xie's mother to relax.
Now it seems that Sun Lanjun is a bad person and anyone who gets involved with her will be in trouble.
When Xiangyi wakes up later, she must tell her not to stay away from Sun Lanjun!
"By the way, aunt, what are you doing here so early in the morning?" Seeing that Aunt Xie didn't respond, Sun Lanjun was angry and suspected that Aunt Xie had seen through her bad intentions, so she changed the subject and asked.
She knew that Xie Guoqiang came here to do business with Xie Qingxiao, but what were Aunt Xie and Su Xiaomei doing here?
The countryside is so poor, how can he be idle? Could it be that he learned that she was back and came to ask for money?
Sun Lanjun was alert instantly. Her parents used to be from the countryside, but later they found jobs in the city and moved their household registration there, thus obtaining a city hukou.
So all the poor relatives of her parents came to ask for money, one today wanted to borrow food, another wanted to borrow money tomorrow... She has been extremely afraid of these poor relatives since she was a child.
Just like she was once afraid of Xie Qingxiao.
Although Aunt Xie didn't know what Sun Lanjun was thinking, she knew from her vigilant expression that she was thinking bad things, as if they were here to steal something. She immediately said unhappily, "We are here to work."
Sun Lanjun asked again: "What kind of work do you do?"
"Ah Xiao and Xiang Yi invited us to come and work for them," Aunt Xie said. "They need people for their business, and they paid us one dollar a day."
She said that on purpose.
Did Ah Ying say that Sun Lanjun always looked down on Ah Xiao? Pah, Ah Xiao is so successful now!
Sun Lanjun couldn't believe it: "You said that Xiao and Xiangyi invited you to work here?"
"Yes," Aunt Xie added, "Ah Xiao and Xiang Yi are doing pretty good business. Look, our Guo Qiang is here too today."
Sun Lanjun: “…” She couldn’t believe it.
She thought Xie Qingxiao's business was just a small one, barely enough to make a living, but it turned out that they were able to hire someone to do it?
Still one dollar a day?
So if you calculate it for a month, isn’t that about thirty dollars a month?
She only makes 30 yuan a month as a primary school teacher!
The combined salary of Aunt Xie and her daughter-in-law is about 60 yuan, and Xie Guoqiang...they earn so much, then how much is Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi's income...
