"Hmm..." Yuan Jiang frowned slightly, looking at the bulging purse in front of her, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes. This money was probably all the bills that the Pei family had saved over the years. Now that she had just entered the door, Ma Hongxia handed these things to her for safekeeping. It was really rare for her to have such a thoughtfulness.
After all, in this era, mothers-in-law are eager to hold the financial power of the family in their hands.
Yuan Jiang thought about it, then pushed the purse back and declined, "Mom, didn't you tell me? We're a family now, so you should keep the money. I was careless and spent money lavishly when I was little, so I never knew what to buy at home. I'll have to rely on you to take care of it in the future."
"This..." Ma Hongxia hesitated and looked at Pei Aiguo. In fact, she was still a little worried at the beginning. Her son was a silly child, and he married an educated youth who looked like a fairy. She was also afraid that one day her daughter-in-law would abandon her husband and child, leaving her miserable silly son with the child, guarding the village gate every day. That scene was heartbreaking to think about.
If your silly son insists on marrying an educated youth, then let him marry him!
She could only think of being nicer and nicer to Yuan Jiang, as people's hearts would always be warmed.
Who knows, Yuan Jiang might even take her stupid son back to the city out of her kindness?!
Now, she has taken the initiative to give the money to Yuan Jiang, but Yuan Jiang still doesn't want it. Could it be that Yuan Jiang really likes her stupid son? Is she going to live a good life with him?
"No, we said before we got married that you will be the one to make the decisions about everything in the family after you marry in." Pei Aiguo frowned, shook his head at Ma Hongxia, and then looked at Yuan Jiang sternly: "We are a family, so your mother will ask you for money for anything she wants to buy in the future."
"Yes!" Ma Hongxia gritted her teeth, made up her mind, and stuffed the purse into Yuan Jiang's hand: "This money is for you. It's okay if you spend it all. Your father and I are still young and can still make money. Goudan has nothing wrong with him. He is just strong and can work hard. Our family can support you."
Pei Zhuo nodded vigorously: "Mom is right! I will work harder in the future and buy good clothes for my wife! I will let my wife eat braised pork every day!"
Yuan Jiang's eyes curved in silence. She tilted her head to glance at Pei Zhuo, who was now staring at her eagerly, his fighting spirit high. She smiled helplessly and put away the purse: "Mother, if you need money, please tell me."
"Okay, let's eat. You must be starving, right?" Ma Hongxia raised her eyebrows, picked up her chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised pork for Yuan Jiang, and scooped a bowl of fish soup for her. "Goudan caught these fish this afternoon. He caught five in total. We cooked two tonight, and the remaining three will be eaten tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
Yuan Jiang held the bowl and took a sip. The fish soup was fragrant and milky in color. The tenderness of the tofu and the delicacy of the fish slices were intertwined. It was delicious and tasty, stimulating the taste buds and immediately whetted her appetite.
"Wife, let me pick out the fish bones for you!" After Pei Zhuo finished a large bowl of rice, he pushed the bowl aside, stood up and rushed out to wash his hands. After coming back, he sat down next to Yuan Jiang, raised his hand to take the plate of steamed fish in front of Yuan Jiang, and started to pick out the fish bones.
His hands were beautiful, with distinct bones and bronze skin that was full of strength.
The movements of picking out fish bones were very delicate. He opened his eyes wide and picked carefully, afraid of missing any fish bones.
Pei Aiguo glanced at Pei Zhuo with disdain and muttered, "I've raised him up and I've never seen him pick up a dish to honor me."
"Eat your meal!" Ma Hongxia glared at Pei Aiguo and stuffed a chopstick into his mouth. "Eating can't even stop you from eating. Who do you think you are? Do you want my son to serve you more food?"
Pei Aiguo:......
Pei Zhuo looked up at the frustrated Pei Aiguo and grinned, "Dad, you pick it up yourself. I want to serve my wife."
