"Bah, you're still borrowing? Do you think I don't know? I heard that your Jiang Ting said that a comrade's father was seriously ill and needed money urgently. Yu Yao took out the money for the sake of saving his life, but what happened? He used the money to open a hair salon for Widow Fang.

He hasn't even married yet, but he's already cheated people out of their money to support Widow Fang. If this isn't cheating, what is it? Do you think Yuyao would agree to give it to him if he told the truth and said the money was for Widow Fang?"

The couple was so ashamed of what they said that they closed the door and dared not go out.

The Lin family was bustling with activity that day, and the whole family was happy to marry their eldest daughter-in-law.

At night, another group of people came to the bridal chamber to make noise.

The custom here is mainly to tease the groom's parents, and Lin Dawei and Ye Lian were tormented in a different way.

Ye Lian had a lot of fun, and Lin Dawei was quite proud of it.

The stiff smile on her face is uglier than crying.

Especially the activity where he was asked to put the lotus leaves in a bamboo basket and spin them around. When spinning the lotus leaves, he had to spin them slowly, lift them up and spin them a few times symbolically.

When it was Lin Dawei's turn, some childhood friends who were about the same age as him spun him with all their might. After they spun him, he nearly vomited his dinner.

I was so angry, but I had to force myself to smile.

I silently remembered these old guys and secretly swore in my heart that I would take revenge on them when they married my daughter-in-law.

When the man was making trouble outside, Lin Yuyao usually stayed in the bridal chamber and talked with her sister-in-law.

According to local customs, the bride returns to the bridal chamber after dinner, sits on the wedding bed, and will not leave the bed again that night.

My current sister-in-law is shy and pretty. I still remember that in her previous life, when my eldest brother died unexpectedly, she had been married for less than three months.

She became a widow at a young age and beautiful, and people outside said that she was unlucky in marriage.

This era is too harsh on women.

She became a widow at a young age, and no one sympathized with her. Instead, she was blamed everywhere.

People around her avoided her, as if there was something dirty about her.

Even her own family considered her unlucky.

When she went back to her parents' home, her parents told her that she was in mourning and could not come in. They just spoke to her for a few words in the yard and then let her go.

About half a year later, her parents suddenly took her away.

Half a month later, I heard that her parents married her off a few hundred kilometers away from home, and I never heard from her again.

"Little sister, thank you for giving me the bracelet. I'm sorry you spent money on it."

Lin Yuyao hadn't married yet, so there was actually no need to give gifts.

But thinking of the hardships her sister-in-law had gone through in her previous life, she bought her a beautiful silver bracelet.

The gold bracelet is too eye-catching, and the silver bracelet is not expensive, but it is also considered a decent wedding gift in the countryside at that time.

"It didn't cost much, it's not expensive."

The groom was sent into the bridal chamber, and Lin Yuyao stood up from the stool and stepped aside.

Looking at a group of people happily making a fuss and forcing the newlyweds to go through the final wedding procedures, everyone followed them out of the house.

However, some of the groom’s childhood friends refused to leave and secretly hid at the door and eavesdropped.

Later, the eldest brother came out with the sole of his shoe and hit them, and they left laughing.

…

The next day, sister-in-law Chen Xia got up early to make breakfast and ran into Ye Lian in the kitchen.

"Xiaoxia, why don't you sleep a little longer? Why are you up so early? I'm not used to sleeping in the same bed."

"Mom, I don't like my bed. I'm used to getting up early. I'll do it with you."

After a while, Lin Yuyao also got up, and the three of them made breakfast together in the kitchen.

Last night, my sister-in-law was too shy and mostly just listened, responding a few words from time to time.

There were only three of them in the room today, so they started talking.

Chen Xia asked Lin Yuyao, "Little sister, I heard from your elder brother that you are working in another city. Is your job going well?"

"Yes, I sell books in a bookstore, and I make 90 yuan a month. And our boss is a young girl, she's very nice, and she gives us extra bonuses during the New Year and other festivals, so on average I make 100 yuan a month."

"Wow, that much?"

"Yes."

"My father only gets fifty yuan for doing odd jobs for others, and he has to do it for a full month."

"The salary here is really not high. South City is richer and the salary there is higher. Sister-in-law, do you want to go to South City with my brother to develop? Now that the economy is open, it is really hard to make money in the countryside. If you want to make more money, you have to go to a big city."

Her words came as a surprise to Chen Xia, as she had never thought about working elsewhere.

Her planned life was to marry a good man, get married and have children.

While the man works outside, she stays at home to take care of the children and his parents.

She was a little embarrassed and declined in a low voice, "South City is so far away, I have never been far away, so... forget it."

Her answer was also within Lin Yuyao's expectations.

She had never thought about working far away, so when she heard the proposal, how could she agree to it immediately?

However, Lin Yuyao believed that her words had left a mark on her heart.

When she realized that women could work outside and make a lot of money, she would think of Lin Yuyao's words first.

At this time Ye Lian spoke.

"Nancheng is too far, but you can go to Jincheng and Yucheng near us. After the New Year, the boss will go to the nearby big cities. If there is a good place, he will take you out."

My eldest brother has resigned from the coal mine.

I didn't quit my job in my previous life because my family conditions were really bad.

My eldest sister-in-law's family is very patriarchal, so they spent a lot of money to marry her, and even borrowed some money. They had to do it just to make money as quickly as possible.

Of course, in the countryside these days, there are not many families who don’t owe money when getting married. Instead, borrowing money to get married is common.

Now people only borrow money, but in the past they also borrowed cloth coupons, industrial coupons, and all kinds of other things.

Although the work in the coal mines was hard, the pay was good.

This time, with the 1,000 yuan Lin Yuyao sent home, the family had no debts, so the eldest brother had the confidence to resign.

"I'll listen to my mother." Chen Xia said in a low voice.

Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "That's fine. Jincheng and Yucheng are both relatively close, and there are many opportunities nearby. As long as I don't go to mine coal, I can do anything."

Ye Lian: "Yuyao, why don't you let your elder brother dig coal?"

Lin Yuyao said, "There are many landslides in coal mines. People have been crushed to death in every coal mine. It's too dangerous and hard work. My brother is young, but he will become old after a few years. The work in the coal mines is not an easy one. Anyway, just don't ask my brother to do it."

"That's right. If it wasn't for the money, who would do it? That job is really hard and dangerous. If you don't do it, I won't let your brother do it anymore."

In order to strengthen their choice, when Lin Yuyao sent some things back home, she also found some newspapers that reported the mine accident. After reading them, they were also scared.

Now that my family is not short of money and has no debts, there is really no need to do such dangerous and hard work.
