Wang Xiu'e stuck out her tongue at Lu Yan and said righteously, "Mom, listen to how nice your aunt is. I'm still young, and you're urging me to get married every day. I already have a grandson, and what's missing is a grandson?
Just wait a few more years. The men in our village and I have nothing in common. I have been in poor health since I was a child and cannot do physical work. If I can't earn work points, my in-laws will also look down on me.
It would be better to find a job in the city. At least when you get married in the future, you can be more respectable. No matter what others have, it is not as good as what you have. Don't listen to those people who praise men to the sky.
If he were half as good as they say, someone would have already rushed to marry him. They are just glorifying men and setting a trap for us women."
Fang Xiu'e has advanced ideas. Not to mention the present, but in the future, most of the bad people she introduces to you are relatives.
Seeing that you are living a good life, I want to find some hardship for you to suffer.
The man is honest and can't say a word even if he is beaten with a few sticks. He has no way of dealing with people. But in their mouths, he is an honest person who can make a living, unlike others who are smooth-talking.
Bah, when you get married, if anything goes wrong or if they make a fuss, it will all be your fault. After all, they are such honest people.
Many people suffer at the hands of honest men. To the outside world, everyone praises him, but to the inside, he almost drives women crazy.
Lu Yan flicked her forehead and said unhappily, "Isn't it because I'm afraid that when you get older, there won't be any good options for you. This man is just like the cabbages in the vegetable market.
If you don't hurry up, someone else will pick up the good ones. I'm your mother, a matchmaker. Don't you understand this? I think you've become stupid from studying.
If I haven't met the right person, I'll just look for a job first. If I do meet the right person, I'll start a family first. Who do you think I'm working so hard for? Isn't it all for your own good?
I hope you have a good future, a good husband, a good husband, and a son and a daughter. Even if I sleep in bed, I will feel at ease. "
Zhang Yulan said, "Xiu'e is quite obedient. Don't blame her. It's not her destiny yet. Young people should have their own ideas.
You asked her to find someone she likes. She knows whether life is good or not. Can you make the decision on this important matter in her life?
Arranged marriages were popular in the past, but now they are no longer accepted. It’s more about mutual consent and free love.”
She thought of something, her eyes filled with anger. "Look at Xiao Min. I've been talking her out of my mouth, but she still married Feng Chen, right? Now she's suffering. I haven't contacted her for two years. I don't care how she's doing. Anyway, out of sight, out of mind."
She was the youngest daughter in the family, and she was very worried about Lu Xiaomin.
Her brothers and sisters loved her, and her parents gave her the good things they wanted, which spoiled her to the point of being lawless.
When she arrived at her husband's house, she was severely beaten. Feng's mother looked sweet on the outside but was actually bitter on the inside. It was obvious how much Lu Xiaomin was suffering.
But she didn't ask about it or care about her. She didn't say that she would cut off ties with her or that she would not live with the people here anymore. She could do whatever she wanted. She couldn't rely on her for her retirement.
Before, she was given some allowance, and she thought it was natural. If she had no money, she would go to her parents' home, and her parents would have to support her without food or drink? It's really unbearable to watch.
Speaking of Lu Xiaomin, Lu Yan couldn't help but sigh, feeling disappointed. "They say scholars make their own decisions, so why is she so confused? I don't like that guy named Feng.
Of the ones I introduced to her, which one wasn't better than Feng Chen? She was like a demon, insisting on marrying Feng Chen. If she said it was good, it was because she was good at speaking and was a master at making big promises.
"I've lost my mind after being fooled by Lu Xiaomin. She hasn't had a good time these past two years. She's been tortured by her in-laws and is now pale and thin. Her children don't even kiss her, but side with her husband. Have you heard about this?"
Zhang Yulan smiled and said indifferently: "Whether she is doing well or not is none of my business. I will just treat her as my daughter. What do you think she is thinking? Is she waiting for me to bow my head and coax her?
Bah, I'm busy enough myself, who has time to bother with her business?
Lu Yan advised: "There is no overnight hatred between mother and daughter. Just talk about what's in your heart. It's all from your belly.
"Will you feel good if she has a hard time? Xiao Min used to be quite well behaved. I think it was the Feng family who taught her bad things. If you talk to her nicely, she will listen."
Zhang Yulan smiled bitterly, "What are you listening to? She ignored everything I said. In her mind, her mother-in-law is perfect, and I'm just a poor country girl.
That child has grown up crooked a long time ago. It's also my and her father's fault for not discovering it earlier. Let her be. She can become a dragon in the sky or a snake in the ground. She will have her own family.
Whether she is fine or not in the future has nothing to do with me and her father. We have done our best to provide her with good food and drink."
No one in the village lives as well as Lu Xiaomin, including Lu Xiaofang, but she is still not satisfied and wants these people to treat her like an ancestor.
How is that possible? If everyone revolves around you, what about the others?
Her attitude towards her sisters-in-law was not good either, she just rolled her eyes. Seeing Song Yulan's attitude, Lu Yan didn't say anything.
As the saying goes, every family has its own problems. Lu Xiaomin must be regretting it so much that he is beating his chest and stamping his feet.
If the relationship had not been severed, she would have come to ask for money. After all, his parents loved him and would definitely leave anything good to her.
Zhang Yunan talked for a while, and then decided on the matter. She stood up, but Lu Yan stopped her. "It's still early, are you going back? Why don't you eat first? I'll make you a green pepper and wild mushroom hot pot. It's delicious. You can't have it in the city."
Zhang Yulan waved her hand. "No more eating. We still have to go to the old house and ask her to help. If we don't arrange this matter, the store will be in chaos as soon as we leave in July.
Xiu'e, remember to come to the store next week and familiarize yourself with it in advance."
Fang Xiu'e hugged her arm and said coquettishly, "Aunt, I will come early."
Zhang Yulan thought of something and said to her, "Just pack a few clothes and stay with us first. We have a spacious yard that can accommodate you and the eldest brother.
It also saves you from renting a house outside, which is expensive and unsafe for girls."
Lu Yan was a little embarrassed. "Isn't that too much trouble for you? The food and accommodation are all in the store, and there is 20 yuan every month. This is a great thing for anyone, but you are the only one who thought of me."
Zhang Yulan glared at her. "You helped me a lot when I was in trouble before. Now that I'm successful, I must repay you. Besides, I really like Xiu'e. Now that she's here to keep her sister company, we can travel far without worry. From now on, we have to let them take care of the store."
Hearing that it was handed over to them, Lu Yan was surprised, "You don't want to do it anymore?"
Business is so good, it doesn't make sense, who would leave the money unearned?
Everyone in the village is jealous of the Lu family's business, but no one can make that spicy flavor.
Zhang Yulan explained: "It's not that we don't do it, it's that we are not in the county anymore. He Miao bought a few storefronts in the provincial capital, and after they are renovated, they will open in August.
We have to go there, otherwise we will be too busy to handle it. We can leave the county town to them. We will have to find more people as we open more stores in the future."
