Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Bai Jinfeng tugged at her clothes and said, "Yes, my two brothers and sisters-in-law sent me this!"
Old Mrs. Xu’s eyes almost popped out of her head.
She is not even a good mother, yet she gave this wooden stake to her eldest son's wife!
angry!
So angry!
"My two sisters-in-law, can I ask where this cloth comes from?" Lin Xiaoxi was jealous. Years ago, she wanted to buy some cloth to make new clothes, but she didn't have enough cloth coupons and couldn't get any cloth.
Ning Jia and An Ye brought back so much cloth, it must not have come from legitimate channels.
Ning Jia: “No!”
An Ye: "I can't tell you!"
Lin Xiaoxi was humiliated and felt a little embarrassed.
Li Chuan couldn't bear to see this, so he spoke up for his wife: "My two sisters-in-law, my Xiaoxi didn't offend you, did she? Why do you always pick on her?"
Ning Jia laughed twice: "Anyone who knows a little bit won't ask like that! For example, if she has a fish today and a bag of candy tomorrow, we won't ask where those things come from."
Lin Xiaoxi was choked and stopped talking.
This time, Old Mrs. Xu wisely chose to keep her mouth shut. She had clashed with the Sixth Master's wife many times, but she had never won once.
This time, the fifth and sixth sons' wives stopped quarreling. They got along well with each other and now they can even wear the same pants.
If she interrupts, is that like looking for a knife to clean the carrot? It's just asking for trouble!
There is a custom in Laohuaishu Village that the younger generations in the village have to visit each household to wish their elders a happy new year, so every New Year's Day, all the villagers visit each other.
Young people all go out to pay New Year's greetings, while older people stay at home waiting for their younger generations to pay New Year's greetings.
Generally, it is men who do the New Year's greetings. Women, except for visiting their own elders, no longer go around the streets to pay New Year's greetings at other times.
Ning Jia and An Ye came out of the old lady's room and went to the fourth brother's room.
This is the first time for both of them to come to the fourth brother's place after being married for so long.
Li Xuejiao had just given birth and was still in the confinement period, so she had not left the house at all. Furthermore, she still had a grudge against Mrs. Xu because of what she had done, and she could not forgive the old lady at all, so she simply decided not to go to pay New Year's greetings.
Seeing the two of them coming in, Li Xuejiao struggled to get up: "Why are you two here? Come in and sit down!"
On that day, Li Xuejiao was still a bit proud. She looked down on Ning Jia and An Ye and thought it was vulgar to see them quarreling.
It's better to stay away from her if possible.
The experience of being hospitalized for childbirth completely changed her view of these two people, and she was very grateful to them for generously paying money to save her life.
When she regained consciousness, she heard her mother and brother tell her the story, and her eyes became red.
"We came to see you and the child." Ning Jia said.
"I'm very grateful." Li Xuejiao didn't want to say "thank you" all the time. She pulled down the child's quilt, revealing a white and tender little face. "Look!"
The child was taken to the emergency room as soon as he was born. He was so thin a few days ago, but he has gained some weight in the past few days and looks less pitiful.
"Pretty little princess." Ning Jia gently touched her little face with a finger, and she immediately stuck out her pink little tongue. "Have you chosen a name?"
"Yes." Li Xuejiao nodded, "Li Hui."
"Your name."
Seeing Ning Jia's fond eyes, Li Xuejiao smiled sincerely: "Since you like children so much, why don't you and Lao Liu have one quickly?"
Ning Jia tilted his head: "It's not the right time, let's talk about it later."
Li Xuejiao had never seen someone who was not in a hurry to have children after marriage, but she respected Ning Jia's idea and would not persuade her to have children.
After all, giving birth to a child is like going through the gates of hell for a woman.
"Everyone in the Li family has been named xx brother all along. You named her Li Hui. Does fourth brother agree with that?" An Ye was quite surprised by this.
"I don't want to." Li Xuejiao laughed, her eyes full of sarcasm, "To be honest, before the child was born, Li Heng and I thought of a name for the child - Call Brother! It means to call my brother to come quickly! Isn't it ridiculous?"
She had thought about it at the beginning. If the first child was a girl, she would try for a second child, as she still wanted a boy.
But after experiencing a life-and-death experience in the hospital last time, she suddenly became indifferent to all these things.
What happened to the boy?
What's wrong with the girl? Whether the old lady likes it or not, why should her children be liked by others?
"I think you have come to terms with it." An Ye said.
"Yes, I've let it go! What's the big deal!" After letting it go, she became free and easy.
Ning Jia also finished seeing the child. She was not very familiar with Li Xuejiao and did not have much to say, but it was because her other children had already received New Year's money, and this little one could not be left out.
So, he took out a red envelope and said, "A little gift for the child."
An Ye also handed it out: "It's for New Year's Eve and evil spirits."
Li Xuejiao was a little touched: "It's a good idea. Then I'll accept it. I can't pay back the money I owe to my two brothers and sisters for now. I'll pay it back as soon as I have enough money."
"Yes." Ning Jia nodded in agreement.
After Ning Jia and An Ye finished their work, they came out of the fourth master's room.
Since I had nothing to do during the New Year, I decided to study house decoration. Originally, this thing could have been almost done before the New Year, but something happened in the third and fourth sons' families, and the project was abruptly interrupted.
As soon as they left, Lin Xiaoxi arrived.
After entering the door, she exchanged greetings with Li Xuejiao for a while. Before she entered the door, Li Xuejiao had clearly shown that she was very close to her.
"Fourth sister-in-law." Lin Xiaoxi took out a dollar from her pocket and put it under the child's pillow. "This is New Year's money for the child."
Li Xuejiao smiled faintly: "Thank you."
"Don't be polite, we are friends." After giving the money, Lin Xiaoxi began to talk about what happened in the morning. "Today is the first day of the new year, and everyone gave New Year's money to their children. I thought that since they gave money to Zhaodi, Pandi, and Yingdi, they couldn't not give money to our family, right?"
"Thank you for remembering me."
"Nothing." Lin Xiaoxi didn't know that Ning Jia and An Ye had been here before. The topic went around and around, and finally came to the two of them. "It's strange. The fifth and sixth sisters-in-law do nothing every day, but they don't lack money at all. They live much better than us! You don't know that they took the lead in giving New Year's money this morning. Do you think this is... a bit too much?"
Li Xuejiao looked up at her with a strange expression.
Fearing that she might misunderstand, Lin Xiaoxi explained, "I mean, there are so many daughters-in-law in the family. If one takes the lead, shouldn't the others also give money? However, I see that the eldest sister-in-law has never given money to the children of the third sister-in-law, and the third sister-in-law has never given money to the eldest sister-in-law's children! The two sisters-in-law haven't given money to you either, right?"
Li Xuejiao explained simply: "It's nothing strange. We agreed before that no one would give money to anyone else. But if you are willing to give money, then give it to me..."
As for the return, that is probably unlikely.
If you are willing to give me this, I can only say that you really love children.
Lin Xiaoxi realized that she had said the wrong thing, but she still tried to make amends for herself: "Actually, it's okay to give it. You don't have much relationship with anyone, just give it quietly. What will others do if you make such a big fuss? These two people do whatever they want? You said they are also friends, since they have given it, why don't they just take it as a bowl of water? Why don't they come to see you, the fourth sister-in-law, and give our Nini some New Year's money?"
Li Xuejiao stared at her for a while, which made Lin Xiaoxi confused. She didn't know why she had that expression.
