When Wen Tang went with Gu Yanli to buy clothes for the Gu family, she saw the silk scarf that she had given to Feng Jiao and Feng Wei last time.
When Wen Tang saw the scarf, he thought of Director Wang.
Director Wang had never once given her any trouble regarding the soap, and had always done his best. She didn't have much to offer him, so it would be bad to just give him two bags of tea.
So when I saw the silk scarf, I spent a huge amount of money to buy one.
I'll just wait to bring it to Director Wang the next time I go to the commune.
Unexpectedly, Director Wang came to her house before she even left.
The scarf was handed to Director Wang. Just by looking at the packaging, Director Wang knew it was not cheap.
Wen Tang also told her, "I went to Hai City to visit my girlfriend a few days ago. I saw this scarf and thought it was very suitable for you, so I brought it back. Please don't despise it, Director."
Director Wang naturally didn't mind. Even if you have money, you can get coupons for Haishi's things.
However, Wen Tang's husband is a soldier in the army in Hai City, so it is normal for him to have some rare coupons. I also heard that her husband is the battalion commander.
Director Wang held the wrapped scarf in his hand. Although he liked it very much, he still pushed it away. “This… is too expensive.”
Wen Tang smiled and shook his head. "It's not expensive, but the color is better."
"Really?" Director Wang stroked it, and it was obvious that he really liked it.
"Really," Wen Tang assured sincerely.
"If that's the case, then I'll take it."
"Don't send me anything. I'm going back now." After accepting the things, Director Wang didn't ask anyone to send him anything else.
Wen Tang stopped walking and said, "Director, please drive slowly."
"Well, let's go back," Director Wang got on his bicycle, turned around and waved, then rode away.
Only after making sure that she could not see clearly what was behind her when she looked back did Wen Tang leave.
Suddenly, there were orders worth two thousand yuan, and Wen Tang and Zhong Meixian started to get busy.
Wen Tang was busy buying lard everywhere, while Zhong Meixian was catching clams everywhere. Fortunately, it was summer and there were plenty of them.
The next day after they were busy, it was the day when Chi Yue's family gave gifts to the child.
On this day, not only Chi Yue's family came.
Relatives from the Gu and Lin families also came.
On this day, Lin Jingshen took a leave of absence and Gu Shuhe also took a break to help at home. Everyone started working early in the morning.
Gu Jin also came to the Gu family early to help.
There are many people drinking together, so a lot of dishes need to be prepared, so the dishes should be prepared early.
Gu Yinfeng and Gu Xiaohua's families also arrived around eight o'clock.
After the two arrived, they first went to Lin's house to see Chi Yue and the child, gave the child money, and then came out to help.
When they were working, they inevitably talked about Chi Yuesheng's child, and they all praised Chi Yuesheng's child. "This child will definitely look like her mother when she grows up. Look at her double eyelids, so beautiful." Gu Xiaohua said.
Gu Yinfeng also said, "She has fair skin, and a fair complexion makes her look pretty. No matter how she grows up, she will be beautiful."
Gu Jin also smiled and said, "Jinfeng is a lucky child."
Everyone was praising their family, and Gu Jinfeng, the grandmother, was almost smiling to pieces.
Zhong Meixian sat behind the stove with her hands folded, saying nothing.
She didn't say anything, and no one noticed that she was unhappy.
The old lady was upset, so she suddenly said loudly, "Xiaotang from our family said that he would build a new house for us in a while."
Her words really changed the subject. Gu Yinfeng and Gu Xiaohua were both surprised. "Really?"
"When will it be built?"
"Sister-in-law, what kind of cake are you going to make?" Gu Yinfeng asked Wen Tang who was busy dyeing the wedding eggs.
Wen Tang didn't even raise his head. "Build a brick house."
"Oh, that's a lot of money!"
Zhong Meixian immediately raised her chin proudly.
Humph, what’s so great about being able to give birth to a child?
All women can give birth to children, but can all women build red brick houses for their families?
It was obviously her luck to have found a good daughter-in-law.
Speaking of the house, Gu Yinfeng couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law, how are you?"
Wen Tang: "Ah?"
What's going on with her?
Gu Yinfeng pointed to her stomach.
"Pay attention to turning the pan over. You've burnt the peanuts. All you do is talk. Talk, talk, talk!!!" Before Wen Tang could say anything, Zhong Meixian glanced at Gu Yinfeng.
Gu Yinfeng quickly took the ladle and flipped the peanuts twice.
Then……
No, it’s not burnt!
She wanted to speak, but Gu Jinfeng and Gu Xiaohua both winked at her.
Gu Yinfeng didn't understand for a moment, but still chose to keep quiet.
Chi Yue's family arrived at around ten o'clock.
Generally, when a girl gives birth to a child, her parents' home will give her a hen, eggs, brown sugar, as well as new clothes, shoes, and quilts for the child.
Some people who are better off will give away their own fermented glutinous rice wine, long noodles, and small shakers.
Most of the conditions are not good now, that is, hens, eggs, brown sugar, and children's new clothes, shoes, and quilts are all made by ourselves.
But Chi Yue's mother was stingy, and probably knew that three chickens were too ugly, so she gave two hens and a rooster.
There was only a small basket of eggs, and it was so small that everyone doubted whether it could hold thirty eggs.
There were barely six packets of brown sugar.
The children's clothes, one set was newly made, the other was obviously old.
You can also see from the quilt that it is made of old cloth.
When these things were brought into Chi Yue's room and opened, everyone could see them.
After seeing this, everyone in the Gu family looked unhappy.
Especially Wen Tang.
She is the kind of person who is fine with being wronged, but absolutely cannot bear to see her best friend being wronged.
