Shi Haiyan really used all her strength to barely control her mouth and not say anything sarcastic, but she kept swallowing hard.
The fourth son's wife is really stingy. She didn't know to make two more bowls so that her brothers and sisters-in-law could have a taste. She really couldn't bear to do that, so she just added more water.
She wouldn't mind if the taste was a little lighter.
well……
Shi Haiyan sighed.
When she complained in the past, Wang Sanbing ignored her, and she always felt that she might as well marry a piece of wood. Now that Wang Sanbing pays attention to her, she wishes Wang Sanbing were deaf and dumb.
For the entire afternoon, Shi Haiyan's heart was filled with sourness, but while working, she kept saying how good Qiao Li was, how the Qiao family treated their daughter well, and so on and so forth...
She found it particularly easy to feel superior among the women in the village.
On the other side, Xie Ailian also boasted among the old women.
"Maltese...tsk tsk tsk...hey, what does that stuff smell like? I heard it's very expensive." Xie Xiaofeng nudged Xie Ailian with his elbow and asked her in a low voice.
The other old ladies pricked up their ears.
Xie Ailian gave a forced smile, "Fragrant!"
"……"nonsense!
All the maids groaned inwardly, and Xie Xiaofeng then asked, "How do you make the incense?"
"Just..." Xie Ailian paused. I can't even describe it!
She simply waved her hands, "I just tasted it. That's what the old Qiao family used to give to their daughter to nourish her body. My fourth daughter-in-law is filial and made a bowl for us two old people. But as a mother-in-law, how could I have the nerve to drink it? No way.
People still have to have some dignity, don't you think? Especially mothers-in-law like me...
Even before the family division, when I was in charge of the household, I never looted my son and daughter-in-law's house. If my daughter-in-law brought something back from her parents' home, I would take it, but I would never ask for it without asking for it."
“…”
There were a few maids who despised and ridiculed Xie Ailian for not being able to control her daughter-in-law, for not knowing how to keep the good things for herself and letting her daughter-in-law take them away, and for having the nerve to show off after only giving her a bowl of drink. When they heard her words, their faces changed.
This old guy can't even manage a family. He separated the family while the old couple was still alive. Yet he has the nerve to speak nonsense here.
Although he thought about it, he didn't really say it to anyone. Not only was he afraid of Xie Ailian, but he also knew in his heart that Xie Ailian's life now was indeed much worse than hers.
Who would have thought that you could earn fifty or sixty yuan by sending a little girl to school and taking just one exam?
It's another day of causing hatred, and Xie Ailian, the person involved, is completely unaware of it.
In the evening, after returning from work, Wang Fangbing called Wang Erbing and Wang Sanbing to come to the main hall together.
Wang Zhaozhao, who was writing under the eaves, overheard this and found out that it was about repairing a canal. Construction was about to officially begin and required a large-scale mobilization of labor. Each production team had a hard target, requiring at least twelve people to be mobilized.
The salary was: twelve work points a day, three meals a day, a tent to live in, and two yuan a month.
Give everyone three days to consider whether to sign up.
If there are fewer than twelve people who sign up, the brigade will hold a mobilization meeting. If there are still not enough people who take the initiative, they will designate candidates.
Wang Fangbing called them over to discuss the registration matter.
For him, it’s not a question of whether to go or not, but whether you want to go with me?
Twelve work points, free meals, and two dollars at the end of the month, these conditions were extremely tempting to him.
As for the hard work of repairing the canal? He was never afraid of hardship!
"I'll go too." said Wang Sanbing.
In addition to work points, he also gets paid, so he can do the work no matter how hard or tiring it is.
Wang Erbing didn't rush to express his opinion. He turned around and asked Wang Sibing if he wanted to go. Wang Sibing shook his head and said, "Qiao Li fainted and went to the hospital yesterday. I'm worried, so I won't go."
Wang Erbing: “……!”
This is a really good excuse.
You spent money on a trip to the hospital, so shouldn't you go?
"I won't go either. I don't have as much burden as the eldest and third brothers..."
He originally wanted to say this through Wang Sibing's mouth, but he didn't expect that Wang Sibing didn't follow his idea.
After listening to his four sons' opinions, Wang Dahai said, "Then the eldest and the third son should go. It would be great if they can look after each other together."
After saying that, he let them go. Wang Erbing felt very uncomfortable.
He thought he would be scolded if he didn't go, but it turned out that he wasn't. His brothers didn't even show any surprise, let alone say a word of advice.
Do you all think that she has only one daughter and no son, so her burden is indeed light?
"System, did I see it wrong just now? Why does my dad look like he's been terribly wronged? I saw his fists clenched."
As they left, Wang Zhaozhao inadvertently looked up and saw Wang Erbing's distorted expression and clenched fists.
"Host, next time you have intelligence points, add them to your concentration." The system said slowly.
Wang Zhaozhao: “……!”
"Oh, right! I remember what you said about intelligence points. Do you still owe me something?" The primary school of the Hebian Village Production Team was established. Did she have any auxiliary gold coins that she didn't get?
I don’t remember if it was one or three, but even a mosquito leg is meat.
"Host, you can check your account. This system will definitely not let you down. What you haven't received yet is a gold coin from the blackboard newspaper task... Host, do you still need to complete that task?"
“…”
What happened? Did she get herself into trouble?
In the new week, on Wednesday, Principal Liu called Wang Zhaozhao to his office and gave her a library card from the city library.
"Actually, our commune is too far from the county town. Once we get to the county town, it will take less than half an hour to get to the city." Principal Liu saw Wang Zhaozhao's difficulty and thought she felt that going to the city was too far and too troublesome, so he added another sentence.
Hearing this, Wang Zhaozhao curled his lips, said thank you and went back to the classroom.
"Host, this system despises you." The system popped up in her mind.
"You're sick!" Wang Zhaozhao retorted, unyieldingly. "Don't bring this up again unless I'm called out. It would seem strange if I approached the principal, and you'd just embarrass me if I pressed the issue. Isn't that just looking for trouble? It's not worth it."
System: "Why are you cursing?"
"You're not human."
“……!”
With a whoosh, the system space in Wang Zhaozhao’s mind went black.
Wang Zhaozhao: “……!”
It really is not worth it. For such a small matter, they each took the lead. Are they quarreling?
At night, Wang Zhaozhao washed up, lay down on his bed, and went into the library, which had been expanded to include a large system space, to study. From eight to ten o'clock, he finished and logged out...
"Huh?"
Wang Zhaozhao looked at the line of words in front of him and laughed speechlessly.
Is the system... in a cold war with her?
