Chapter 160: Mind Your Own Business
If Jiang Xin had said this in the past, Fu's mother would definitely have scolded Jiang Xin and said that she was cursing them to break their legs.
After all, human prejudices are there.
If you don't like someone, then no matter what she does, it's all wrong.
This sentence is very effective for Jiang Xin.
Anyway, at the beginning, Fu's mother looked at Jiang Xin and felt that she displeased her no matter how she looked at her.
However, things were different at this moment. After changing her mind and listening to Jiang Xin's words, Fu's mother felt moved. She didn't expect that even though the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had quarreled like this, Jiang Xin still didn't forget to remind them to be safe.
It's really hard to find such a good daughter-in-law.
They have to cherish it.
Therefore, after hearing Jiang Xin's words, Fu's mother hurriedly replied, saying:
"Okay, okay, let's go home right now and don't waste any more time. After all, it's not too early now."
"Besides, if we dawdle a little longer, the food will get cold, and we'll have to heat it up when we get home."
"It's better to walk faster, so that when you get home, the food won't be cold yet."
After they finished talking, the three of them stopped talking and just walked towards the village in silence.
As Mother Fu walked, she looked at Jiang Xin secretly.
Jiang Xin was seen walking towards the village with her head down and in silence.
I thought that when I returned to the village later, I would probably attract a lot of attention.
Mother Fu felt that she had completely disgraced herself with this person today.
However, while it was embarrassing, she also gained something. This could be considered a blessing in disguise for her.
Father Fu has been secretly observing Mother Fu all the time. Seeing her expression, he felt relieved. At least she knew how to correct her mistakes, and it also eased the conflict between her and Jiang Xin. Finally, they can live a good life at home in the future.
Otherwise, there will be noise and quarrels in the house all day long, and it will be impossible to live in peace in this home.
Moreover, if we count the days, the second son will be home soon. By then, the family will be together and life will be very fulfilling.
By the time they returned to the village, it was already getting dark. Fortunately, they walked quite fast, so they got home not too late.
At this time, most people would have already finished their meal and were resting.
After they returned home, Father Fu immediately found a match and lit the kerosene lamp, then took the lunch box from Jiang Xin's hand.
Then he quickly cleared the table, put all the food on the table, and then called the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to come over to the table to eat.
When Mr. Fu was setting the lunch boxes, he noticed that the food was not yet cold. It was just right to eat it now because it was still warm.
This is also thanks to the current temperature, which is not that low, so the food cools down more slowly.
As soon as Mother Fu and Father Fu walked up to the dining table and saw the dishes on the table, they were immediately stunned.
I didn't expect that Jiang Xin actually ordered such delicious dishes. These four dishes are all meat. I guess it must have cost a lot of money. How could she let Jiang Xin spend so much money?
Mother Fu moved her lips, but she really didn't know what to say.
Father Fu did the same. In the end, the three of them finished their meal in silence.
Actually, when it comes down to it, this was the first time that three people had eaten at the same table since the original owner married into their family, and it felt quite strange.
Moreover, Jiang Xin has always been a solitary person and she doesn't like to interact with strangers.
Although, on the surface, these people are a family, but in the end they are not very familiar with each other, so it feels weird to eat at the same table.
Moreover, it would be quite awkward if no one spoke, so during the meal, Fu's mother and father seemed to feel the awkwardness of the atmosphere, so they took the initiative to ask her what she had been doing recently, which helped to ease the atmosphere.
Jiang Xin has never been good at chatting, so usually, Mrs. Fu and Mr. Fu would ask a question and she would answer it, and they couldn't find any fault with it anyway.
After dinner, Fu's mother took the initiative to take charge of the task of clearing the table and asked Jiang Xin to go back to the house to rest.
Jiang Xin had been busy all day today and was really a little tired now, so she didn't refuse anymore. She just listened to Fu's mother and went back to the room to rest.
After all, she still has things to do early tomorrow morning, and the stall is still going on. She has to hurry up and go into the space to organize the goods to be sold tomorrow.
After all, making money is something that cannot be delayed.
The next morning, around seven o'clock, Jiang Xin got up, washed up in the space, and chose a new set of clothes to change into. She was originally preparing to go out.
Unexpectedly, yesterday's reconciliation seemed to have some effect. For today's breakfast, Fu's mother even brought Jiang Xin's portion.
Originally, Jiang Xin planned to find a place to eat something when she went to the vegetable market.
After all, it’s not good to always eat things in the space.
Besides, she was too lazy to cook, so she thought it would be better to go to the vegetable market and have a quick meal.
There are more foods and more choices in the vegetable market.
Unexpectedly, Fu's mother actually left her a breakfast.
This is a treatment that we have never had before.
Jiang Xin was still somewhat shocked.
Jiang Xin's look of surprise was too obvious. After seeing it, Fu's mother also felt a little embarrassed.
After all, it was her fault those days. She didn't even prepare meals for Jiang Xin. I really don't know where Jiang Xin had eaten during these days.
In order to ease the embarrassment, Fu's mother took the initiative to say:
"Well, breakfast is on the table. I've left a portion for you. Go eat it quickly. It's just been heated up and it's not cold yet."
Mother Fu got up early in the morning and prepared breakfast.
Because she is an elderly person, she gets up early every day. When she and Father Fu were having dinner, there was no movement in Jiang Xin's room, so she did not disturb Jiang Xin.
Mother Fu thought that it would be better for her to put the prepared breakfast in the pot to warm it up first, and then let Jiang Xin eat it after she woke up. It would still be in time.
After all, over the past few days, Fu's mother has figured out the specific time for Jiang Xin to get up every day.
Jiang Xin lowered her head and glanced at the watch on her hand. Seeing that she still had time, she said:
"Okay, then I'll have breakfast first."
No matter what, this breakfast is a gift from Fu's mother, and her kindness cannot be wasted.
After Jiang Xin finished speaking, she walked straight to the dining table, pulled out a stool, sat at the table, and started eating the breakfast that Fu's mother had prepared for her.
In fact, the meal is so simple that it can even be described as crude.
Rice porridge, plus pickles mixed by yourself, it is a simple combination. In addition, there are two boiled eggs. However, if it is said in this era, it can be said that it is a good meal.
After all, although every household raises hens at this time, generally speaking, the eggs at home are the kind that people are reluctant to eat.
Most families would collect the eggs laid by the old hens and then run to the town to sell them to the people there when they had an emergency.
In that case, the family can have extra income.
So, eggs were a scarce commodity in that era. From this perspective, it was very thoughtful of Fu's mother to specially leave two eggs for her.
After finishing breakfast, the relationship between the three of them has eased somewhat.
So, after Jiang Xin thought about it, she would be away from home the whole day, so it would be better to tell the old couple, Mother and Father Fu, in advance.
Seeing that Fu's mother was secretly staring at her, as if she was afraid to look directly at her, it looked quite funny.
So Jiang Xin opened her mouth and said:
"I have to go to town to do some work, so you don't have to wait for me for lunch or dinner."
"I'm almost there. I'll be back before dark."
Jiang Xin was struggling over whether or not she should tell Fu's mother and father about her stall in the market.
Although the relationship between them has eased now, Jiang Xin still feels that less trouble is better.
Therefore, it is better not to tell Fu's mother and father about his stall in the vegetable market for the time being. If they find out in the end, there will probably be another fuss.
So, Jiang Xin only said that she had something to do in town, but she didn't say what it was.
Although Fu's mother was curious, after all, Jiang Xin had been going to the town every day these days, leaving early and returning late, and no one knew what she was doing.
Mother Fu wanted to ask, but she didn't have the courage. After all, the relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law had just eased. If Jiang Xin was unhappy because of her asking a few more questions, it would be a loss. By then, there would probably be another quarrel at home.
If Jiang Xin felt that she was meddling in other people's business, she would be very unhappy.
Father Fu obviously realized this, so he quickly winked at Mother Fu, asking her not to ask any more questions, and then immediately said:
"Since you still have things to do, then hurry up and go."
"You don't have to prepare lunch and dinner. We know about it. If you're hungry, you can come back and have another bite."
Jiang Xin did not refuse. She was quite satisfied with the behavior of the old couple, Mother and Father Fu, who did not meddle in other people's affairs.
After all, Jiang Xin was quite afraid that the old couple would ask her for things. After all, she had never been very good at lying.
If, if the old couple asked, Jiang Xin was not going to tell the truth for the time being. Moreover, based on Mother Fu's personality, she might run over to watch the fun after hearing that she was setting up a stall in the vegetable market.
Then how should she explain Lin Ye? I'm afraid it will only cause more trouble.
Moreover, no matter what, after all, she is now Fu Yu's wife in terms of identity, and the two of them are a legal couple with a marriage certificate.
In this day and age, people are relatively conservative when it comes to relationships between men and women, especially married people like her. If she were discovered walking together and being particularly close to a strange man, she would definitely be gossiped about.
Mother Fu is also Fu Yu's mother. If she saw that she had a male employee, although Mother Fu could not influence her opinion, she would definitely have some complaints about this matter.
So, after all, it is better to have less trouble than more, so just don't tell them directly. Besides, Jiang Xin has almost already handed over the matter of setting up the stall in the vegetable market to Lin Ye.
And she herself went to do other things.
As for the stall business, Jiang Xin was basically in a hands-off state.
Every day, Jiang Xin only needed to move the goods to be sold to the vegetable market and hand them over to Lin Ye. Then, she would count the money in the evening.
So in this case, the probability of Jiang Xin meeting someone acquaintance in the vegetable market is very low.
Therefore, she doesn't have to worry about being seen by acquaintances. As long as she stays in the vegetable market for a shorter period of time, nothing will happen.
Moreover, if she really trusted Fu's mother and father, she would tell them that she was setting up a stall in the vegetable market.
But if that were the case, if the two of them started to ask her where she got the goods for her stall from, Jiang Xin would really have no way to make excuses.
After all, the quality of the things in her space is simply beyond the reach of production with the wages of this era.
Therefore, there is nothing wrong in keeping her mouth shut, as it can also help her avoid some risks.
After hearing what Fu's father said, Jiang Xin nodded and left the Fu family's house.
Then, he strode towards the town.
After arriving in the town, Jiang Xin did the same thing as usual. She went directly to the corner again. When no one was passing by, she quietly moved all the packed items in her space to the corner.
Then, she stood in the corner bored, waiting for Lin Ye to come and meet her.
