Chapter 28 After the divorce, we will live together
Mu Jingzhou hesitated for a moment and lowered his voice: "My second brother and I are good at carpentry, and we will secretly take on private work when we have free time."
Carpentry! It's very popular in this era.
Whether building a house, getting married, or making furniture... you will always hire a carpenter to do the work at home.
There is also a state-owned furniture factory that recruits carpentry apprentices and pays them 15 yuan a month!
Moreover, food and accommodation are included!
But, what kind of job can be taken quietly and completed without anyone knowing?
Mu Jingzhou refused to say anything more, and only said: "You and Second Sister-in-law can do whatever you want, and leave the money to us."
"OK."
Su Tang is not well and needs to be asked again.
After all, she was a blackmailer and had not yet gained Mu Jingzhou's full trust.
It is better to make money on your own than to ask about men’s affairs!
"Third brother, we still need some fresh goat milk, can we get it?"
"Sure. How much?"
"Two pounds."
"Okay! I'll get it for you tomorrow."
Su Tang was secretly amazed: To be so amazing, she must have some outstanding qualities. It would be great if she could have all the "dedication" of Shen Mingzhu in the play.
She also wants to be a big star!
There was still a layer of oil in the pan, and Mrs. Mu fried some delicious potato chips herself. Everyone enjoyed the dinner very much.
Old Man Mu and Mu Jingyuan, who had just returned from work, had no idea what had happened and thought that Mu Jingzhou had added fuel to the fire at home again.
After returning to the house and hearing the truth, they all cursed each other.
Li Lan also talked about her failure in making soap, and Mu Jingyuan said, "Don't get involved with them, save money and wait for the division of the family business."
"Don't worry, I understand. The second and third brothers were bewitched and threw money into the toilet. In the future, they will regret it."
"Women should be more responsible and stop doing those petty bourgeois things."
“…”
Mu Jingyuan expressed disdain on the surface, but in his heart he recalled how radiant the second and third brothers were after their marriages, and couldn't help wondering: How on earth did they do that?
I tried it again with Li Lan and I liked it.
I didn't expect Li Lan to have spotting.
"Mom, mom..." In the middle of the night, Mu Jingyuan hurriedly put on his clothes and ran out.
"What's up?"
"Li Lan has spotting."
How can this be tolerated?
Old Mrs. Mu hurriedly got up and rushed into Li Lan's room.
Su Tang and Yu Miaomiao were also alarmed, but did not go out.
She was fine during the day, but suddenly had bleeding in the middle of the night. It was most likely because Mu Jingyuan couldn't control himself.
They should not get involved in such things.
"Second brother, go borrow a bullock cart quickly. We have to take your sister-in-law to the county hospital quickly." Old Mrs. Mu shouted.
Mu Jingyun went to borrow a car with a flashlight.
Mu Jingzhou was also called up: "I remember you know someone at the county hospital, let's go and make arrangements together."
Faced with major issues, the two brothers did not shirk their responsibilities.
But who can feel at ease when there are only two women left at home late at night?
"Okay, I know you're worried. Your dad will stay home."
"good."
The two brothers went back to their rooms and explained things to their wives, then changed their clothes and went to the county hospital.
In the quiet little mountain village at night, insects chirped, dogs barked and birds chirped. When the wind blew, the wooden windows and doors banged.
After getting married, it was the first time that Yu Miaomiao slept alone. The more she slept, the more scared she became. She simply snuck into Su Tang's room with the quilt in her arms: "We sleep together."
"Look at you, all those years of martial arts training have been in vain." Su Tang laughed and moved towards the bed.
She initially learned the role of Hua Dan, but her strength and skills were far inferior to Yu Miaomiao's. But she was abandoned after her parents divorced, and she had often been alone at home since she was five years old, so she was used to it.
"Tang, it's actually quite good to be here. Your parents are so good to you." Yu Miaomiao said.
"Indeed. Once the soap is ready, I'll have to send them two bars." Su Tang's eyes were wet.
The Su family's love for her was simply limitless, and she had never experienced such strong family affection.
In comparison, the gap on Yu Miaomiao's side is too big.
From the apple of the eye to an abandoned child!
“Miaomiao…”
"I've been loved before, so I don't need Old Man Yu. Besides, I still have you."
"Of course! After we get divorced, we'll live together! If you find a man you like in the future, I'll marry you off!"
"You too, I'll save up your dowry!"
“…”
In the dim light of the night, the two sisters' eyes were red, but neither of them cried.
I have drawn one pie after another, but when can I finally eat it?
The two talked until late at night and slept soundly the next day.
Old Man Mu, who had no breakfast in the morning, cursed in the yard: "You're either eating or sleeping all day long. Are you raising pigs? It's ok that you don't work in the fields, but now you don't even make breakfast. Whose wife is so lazy?"
Su Tang woke up to the scolding, but did not get up. She turned over and continued to sleep.
I've been scolded, why should I get up and make breakfast?
They don’t eat.
As a father-in-law, he can’t just rush in and wake them up, right?
Really...can’t!
Old man Mu cursed for a while, but when no one got up to cook for him, he went to the fields on an empty stomach.
Su Tang and Yu Miaomiao slept until almost noon.
First they checked the soap they had made yesterday before preparing lunch—after all, their men were coming home to eat.
There was no one at home, so Yu Miaomiao stopped pretending to stagger and walked steadily into the kitchen.
"We're going to make sugar pancakes today!" Yu Miaomiao opened the broken cupboard and prepared to take out the lard residue to chop it.
Su Tang is a little foodie who loves sweets because she lacks love. Now she is prone to hypoglycemia, so she is more suitable to eat oil residue sugar pancakes.
However, they will not eat alone today. They will bake two for Mu Jingyun and Mu Jingzhou as well.
I opened the cupboard but didn't see any lard residue.
"Hey, where are the oil residues we had yesterday?"
"It's right there, in an enamel basin!"
"No!"
The two sisters looked at each other and laughed angrily.
Old Lady Mu took it to her room and hid it again!
"What should I do?" Su Tang said angrily, "I've been craving for it! As long as I can have an egg tart, I won't even crave this fried pancake."
"Hmph, if she can hide, why can't I?" Yu Miaomiao sneered and turned away.
Mrs. Mu's room is usually locked when entering and exiting, but she is not here today and Old Man Mu does not have the habit of locking the door himself.
So the two of them pushed the door open and went in.
It turned out that there was a cupboard in Old Lady Mu's room, which contained not only their lard residue, but also brown sugar, eggs, millet and other supplies.
"Millet porridge is delicious too." Su Tang became even more greedy.
Yu Miaomiao took the oil residue away and said, "Here, put it in your room so that we can eat it conveniently. Xiaomi, don't touch hers. We will go to the county town to buy some later!"
"good."
After the two men went out, they helped to lock the door, deceiving themselves and others into thinking that it was Old Man Mu who locked the door.
I took a spoonful of the leftover lard from making pancakes and used it to cook vegetables. The rest was placed in Sutang House.
When the meal was ready, Old Lady Mu and others also returned from the county town.
Old Mrs. Mu looked exhausted, and Mu Jingyuan carried Li Lan back to the house with a melancholy look on his face.
Immediately afterwards, Mu Jingyun and Mu Jingzhou also walked in with heavy hearts.
Su Tang and Yu Miaomiao were nervous: Could Li Lan have had a miscarriage?
