Chapter 160 A lean camel is bigger than a horse
After dinner, the sisters went to Lu Xiang's house.
Lu Erjie was shocked again. She didn't expect that the best house in the village was bought by Lu Xiang.
As soon as I saw this house, including the architecture and layout, although it is an imitation of ancient style, it looks comfortable no matter how I look at it.
In addition, Lu Xiang has good aesthetic taste, and she looks very elegant when dressed like this.
The three sisters stayed in the largest guest room.
Lu Bao also came to live with them. The child couldn't stay up late and went to bed early.
The three sisters chatted together.
Second Sister Lu said, "I miss you guys so much!"
The elder sister felt a sense of empathy when she heard this.
Although the distance between the two villages is acceptable, transportation is limited these days, so it is not easy to come back.
Only those who marry far away know this feeling.
This time, it was okay. Sister Lu had a place to stay when she came back, but before, she didn't even have a place to stay and had to travel back at night.
Lu Xiang said, "Then you can move back. New houses will be built on the other side of the river next year. If you come back then, I'll see if there are any policies!"
The eldest sister also hopes that she can come back. It is always better for the family to be together.
But the eldest sister had many things to consider, and asked, "If you come over, will your mother-in-law agree?"
Since ancient times, mothers-in-law have wanted to tie their sons to their belts.
Second Sister Lu said, "You don't know, my husband is lame and disabled. He can't do any heavy work on weekdays. He just learned the tailoring skills and barely makes a living. My brother and sister-in-law do a lot of work, and they have some ideas in their hearts."
Second Sister Lu didn't say anything hypocritical in front of her own sisters.
Their family is considered a burden in her husband's family. In addition, she has two sons, so her mother-in-law is usually fair and caring.
But when the children were about to go to school, the sisters-in-law started crying about being poor again.
It would cost at least 30 yuan to send the two children to school, and the family could only afford that much. My sisters-in-law must have been feeling a bit upset, so they all exploded.
Her husband is a disabled person and has a high self-esteem.
This caused a quarrel and made the family quite unhappy.
In fact, Lu Erjie is also very capable and doesn't want to be treated as a freeloader.
Second Sister Lu said, "If we had mentioned moving before, Mother-in-law would definitely not agree, but now that things are going on, she's a little more relaxed."
After all, as an old man, you cannot offend those capable sons.
Lu Xiang thought Second Sister Lu was living a good life, but she didn't expect it to be such a mess.
Lu Xiang said, "Why don't you come back? I'll see if I can help you book a good house."
Sister Lu smiled and said, "Now our little sister is very powerful. Even the village chief has taken a fancy to her."
Second Sister Lu also said, "Yes, in a blink of an eye, she's already married. Time really flies."
Lu Xiang asked, "What does my second brother-in-law think?"
Second Sister Lu said, "His idea is even more unreliable. He wants to open a tailor shop in the county! I think his skills are okay in the village, but I'm afraid he's not qualified for the county."
People like my second brother-in-law, who have been apprentices since childhood, have learned solid basic skills.
It’s just that the aesthetics are a bit clichéd, and the things produced may not necessarily suit people’s tastes today.
Lu Xiang said, "I think this is a good idea! There are many people in the county who are willing to spend money!" Then she talked about their sale of off-season vegetables.
Originally, Second Sister Lu just wanted to chat with them casually, but she didn't expect that they would become more and more excited as they talked late at night.
I really think this is possible, but moving to the county is another expense, and in the end I still don't have the money.
Lu Xiang said, "Mom and Dad have some. If you don't use much, you can move some from there. Everything is difficult at the beginning. As long as you can get through this period, everything will be fine later!"
Second Sister Lu said, "I know what's going on. Let's discuss this later!"
Then she joked, "Your man is gone, don't you miss him?"
Lu Xiang blushed, as if something had hit the nail on the head. She said stubbornly, "Say I don't want to!"
Second Sister Lu then said, "The last time I saw your man, he was really handsome. He's a college student." To be honest, Lu Xiang is also somewhat lucky.
Lu Xiang hummed but said nothing.
The eldest sister said: "She is shy!"
The sisters said nothing more.
The next day, Lu Xiang got up early to make dumplings for them.
The two older sisters were both capable workers, so the three of them worked together. The second older sister kneaded the dough, the eldest sister chopped the vegetables, and Lu Xiang prepared the stuffing.
The cabbage and lard residue are cooked into small pieces. After being cooked, each one looks like a round ingot.
Lu Erjie didn't care how hot it was and took a few bites. It was so delicious that she wanted to eat three in one bite.
Lu Xiang said, "I made a bit too much this time, I'll get some for my parents later!"
The second sister said, "I'm going back today, but you have to eat a few more before you leave!" She planned to go back and discuss the matter of going to the county with her husband.
Lu Xiang said, "Then eat more. I'll bring you another plate! I'll pack more and freeze them for the winter. You can come and get them when the time comes."
Second Sister Lu was almost drooling and said, "For this bite of dumplings, I have to come back!"
I don't know how Lu Xiang made it. It smells so good.
I ate so much breakfast that I was full.
Lu Xiangli wiped her hands and took out another ten yuan when she sent her back. She said, "Second sister, you gave me a lot when my eldest sister was in the hospital. Now that you are in trouble, this is a small token of my appreciation."
How could Second Sister Lu ask for money from her younger sister?
But Lu Xiang insisted on giving it to her, so Second Sister Lu reluctantly accepted it and said, "I'll take it first and return it to you when you need it!"
Seeing Lu Xiang and her eldest sister looking a little worried, Lu's second sister smiled and said, "It's not that bad. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if they move out, they can't give away a cent."
Then the two sisters found a carriage for Lu Erjie and sent her back.
Seeing Second Sister Lu walking away, the eldest sister sighed and said, "Every family has its own problems."
She understood that there is no tongue without teeth, and everyone has their own ideas after getting married.
Lu Xiang said, "I'm sending some dumplings to the Fu family." She brought them out specially when she was making them. Compared to others, her mother-in-law was okay.
As soon as they saw the dumplings, the children of the Fu family gathered around and asked Xiao Cailian for dumplings.
Xiao Cailian gave each child one and put the rest in the bowl rack, waiting for everyone to come back and eat.
Everyone knows that Lu Xiang’s cooking is delicious, but you can’t eat all the good things.
After finishing all this, Xiao Cailian asked Lu Xiangxi if she was used to it and whether she wanted to bring it back.
Just then, the door opened and Mrs. Fu rushed in. Seeing Lu Xiang and her mother-in-law, she immediately said, "Did you know that Lu Zhaodi is making some really weird clothes right now?"
Lu Xiang didn't understand and asked what was wrong.
Mrs. Fu said, "She bought a lot of clothes and put on some cosmetics, making herself look glamorous. She also told the girls in the village to learn from her so that they could find rich men." She was so funny.
Lu Zhaodi had previously married the factory director and received a betrothal gift of 5,000 yuan. This matter was very popular in the village.
Many people were tempted, but after all, they were simple villagers who found it difficult to accept the idea of seduce rich men by painting their eyebrows and eyes. So as soon as Lu Zhaodi did it, the news spread.
Lu Xiang probably understood that Lu Zhaodi wanted to manage her personal image, which was all the rage in the 1990s. She had her own successful example.
But doing this in the village always feels like "not adapting to the local environment"!
