Her misogynistic mother accepted a high-priced bride price and married her to a man with disabled legs. She was ridiculed for half her life. Facing the婆婆's (mother-in-law's) constant nitpic...
E8 "Business trip? Chief Liu, what are we doing on this business trip?" Lin Shanshan asked.
"There are several textile factories in the south that are doing well. Our deputy factory director will lead a team over there for exchanges and learning! Since it's an exchange and learning, our Propaganda Department is naturally indispensable. When the time comes, we'll have someone who's good at writing write down everything that can be recorded, and then we'll publicize it in our factory newspaper! In addition, we'll also have to submit articles to the city's newspaper!" Liu Hua gave a brief introduction.
"Who's good at writing?" Lin Shanshan said immediately, "The best writer in our Propaganda Department is Ye Li!"
"Yes, yes, I agree!"
"I agree!"
"Section Chief, let Ye Li go."
Seeing that everyone unanimously recommended Ye Li, Section Chief Liu said with a smile: "Two people are going this time. How can Ye Li be alone? You can send another person! This time you need to follow the leader to learn and exchange ideas, and learn about the new technology in the south! This is a good thing, let's all be more enthusiastic!"
"Leader, I have elderly people and children at home, and my husband is in the hospital, so I can't leave!"
"Yes, Section Chief, let the young people do this kind of thing. They don't have children, so they don't have anything to worry about when they go out! Our children are still young. If we go out for ten days or half a month, I'm afraid the children won't be able to bear it!"
...
...
"Ten days or half a month? You wish!" Liu Hua laughed, "The factory doesn't have that much budget to let you go out for ten days or half a month! It's not that long! I think your awareness is not good enough, this needs to be improved! You are making excuses for going on a business trip! Otherwise, you can discuss it privately and report another person to me! As soon as possible!"
After work, Ye Li and Lin Shanshan walked out together.
Ye Li asked Lin Shanshan: "Are you going or not?"
Lin Shanshan was a little conflicted: "This is a good opportunity to learn, I'm willing to go! But I'm afraid I'll miss home if I'm away for so long!"
"How old are you and you still miss home? Shanshan, if you want to go, let's go together and keep each other company!"
Lin Shanshan said: "I'll think about it tonight and give you an answer tomorrow!"
"good."
"Hey, Ye Li, look, Engineer Jiang is waiting for you at the door! You are so lucky to have married such a gentle and considerate man, and he is so handsome. You don't know how many people in our factory envy you!"
"What do I have to be envious of? I don't want to chat with you anymore. I'm leaving first!"
"Go ahead, go ahead."
After Ye Li separated from Lin Shanshan, he went straight to Jiang Xun. When he got to the car, he put his arm around Jiang Xun's waist and sat lightly on the back seat of the car: "Why are you leaving get off work like this today? Not working overtime?"
Jiang Xun said: "The parts I need cannot be made today, so I won't work overtime for now. Let's talk about it tomorrow!"
"That's great." Ye Li put her arm around his waist and rested her head on his shoulder. "Jiang Xun, let's not go home so early, right? I bet Aunt You is still here. I don't want to see her!"
Jiang Xun laughed twice: "Who wants to see her? No one wants to see her! Then where should we go if we don't go home?"
Ye Li blinked and said, "Let's go eat beef noodles tonight? I'm kind of craving for it!"
"Okay, I'll do as you say!"
The couple found a restaurant, each of them ordered a bowl of noodles and ate it. When they came out of the restaurant, it was already dark.
There is a supply and marketing cooperative not far from the restaurant, and it will soon close.
Ye Li missed Jiang Miao at home, so she took Jiang Xun to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy two kilograms of glutinous rice noodles and a pack of peach cakes: "When we get back, Miao Miao and I will share these delicious foods."
"You and Miaomiao have only met twice, and you hit it off so well?" Jiang Xun asked with a smile.
In fact, sometimes he could not really understand what was going on in his young wife's head.
He obviously hates Wang Sha to death, but he is surprisingly nice to Jiang Miao.
Generally speaking, people love someone and their dog, but they can also hate someone and their dog. She hates Wang Sha, and Miao Miao is Wang Sha's daughter, so she probably doesn't like her that much, right?
The reason why Jiang Miao was allowed to stay overnight last night might have been for face reasons.
What he didn't expect was that Ye Li actually bought so many delicious food today and wanted to eat them with Jiang Miao.
"Do you like Miaomiao?" Jiang Xun asked.
"Yeah." Ye Li nodded. "She is very sensible and lovable! Although I hate her mother, I like Miao Miao."
"I thank you on her behalf." Jiang Xun was grateful to Ye Li and touched her head. "Li Li, you are a kind girl!"
"You ask? Go, go, go home quickly, it's getting dark!"
When Jiang Xun drove Ye Li back to the compound, lights were on in every household in the yard. At this time, every household was probably having dinner.
"Put this thing in our room. I'll go to Mom's room to see if Miaomiao is having dinner!" Ye Li ordered.
"Okay, I'll come find you after I put the things down!"
"Uh-huh."
Ye Li knocked on Zhao Xingmei's door, and after hearing a response, he pushed open the door.
Her room is relatively large, so when there are many people around, they eat in her room.
"Mom and Dad, everyone is eating!" Ye Li glanced at the food on the table. The living standard was not low. There were chicken, fish, eggs and meat. He roughly estimated that this meal would cost four or five yuan.
The old woman's heart must be bleeding.
She greeted everyone, but no one paid any attention to her. They were all anxiously stuffing meat into their mouths and chewing it, fearing that if they responded, they would delay putting the meat in their mouths.
Among the ones who ate the fastest, You Aicong was the one who ate the most. He took a bite of chicken, a bite of meat, and a bite of steamed bun, but did not drink the soup.
If I drink too much of this soup, I will eat less meat and vegetables, right?
Seeing this, Ye Li shook his head helplessly. If You Aicong was treated to such a good meal, she might not be willing to leave for a while.
"Aunt, you're back!" Jiang Miao was a naive child after all. He put down his chopsticks and slid down from his seat. He took her hand and walked to the table. "Look, there are so many delicious foods. Come and eat with us."
"Auntie has eaten, Miaomiao, please eat." Ye Li carried her to the seat, "Will you sleep with me tonight?"
"I have to." Zhao Xingmei finished her meal, put down her chopsticks and said, "Your Aunt You will be staying here for a few days, Miaomiao will have to trouble you!"
"It's not just a few days, it could be ten days, or maybe half a month, or even a month!" You Aicong interrupted.
"It's okay." Ye Li gently stroked Jiang Miao's pigtails. "You're welcome to stay with me for a few days! Come over after dinner. I have something good to share with you!"
"What good stuff?" Jiang Miao asked with a blink of his eyes.
"This is our secret. You'll know it when you get there! It's only between you and me. Don't tell anyone else!"
"Okay." Jiang Miao nodded obediently.
"Be good!" Ye Li said and was about to leave.
At this time, You Aicong put down his chopsticks and called Ye Li directly: "Wait, don't go! I have something to ask you!"
