Chapter 90 How can a grudge between a mother and a father last overnight?
After things got on the right track, the fourth son's wife enjoyed a leisurely life at home, and was no longer allowed to do anything like making tofu or delivering goods.
She still has to share the money.
Lin Shiqi ran out of the village at a trot.
Two people were chasing her from behind.
"Fourth sister-in-law, wait for me." This is Zhou Yaogu.
There is also a little mute girl who can't speak but is very fast.
He caught up with Lin Shiqi in just two or three steps.
This little guy is really like her! If she didn't go to deliver the goods today, he wouldn't go to the county town.
It really is her little cotton-padded jacket.
"What's wrong, aunt?" Lin Shiqi stopped and waited for his sister-in-law.
Aunt Zhou was running out of breath as she chased after him. "Sister-in-law, aren't you going to make shoes? To make shoes, you need to buy shoe uppers and cotton. I'll take you to buy them. I'll also buy some cloth and fancy yarn for myself."
"Yes, cloth for making shoes."
Lin Shiqi subconsciously looked at Zhou Yaogu's feet.
It was a pair of sky blue cloth shoes with light blue flowers embroidered on the uppers.
Good workmanship and style.
I also have expectations for Zhou Yaogu's shoemaking skills.
The aunt and sister-in-law went to the town and came to the cloth shop.
"Auntie, if you have time, please make us some new clothes so we can change into them for the New Year. Make each of us a pair of cotton shoes, a pair of cloth shoes, and a pair of cloth slippers, so we can get up at night to use them..."
Aunt Zhou was embarrassed, "Fourth sister-in-law, I can make it, but I'm afraid I won't be able to make so many before the New Year."
"Then make the shoes first. Please help me pick out the fabrics. I'll buy them and leave them with you. You can make them for me when you are free."
"Okay, Sister-in-law."
Zhou Yaogu knew that Lin Shiqi was now very wealthy.
Don't be polite to her.
Of course, she always took the money and was never polite.
After helping Lin Shiqi choose the fabric, she also picked out some scraps for herself.
I’ve bought it and am about to go buy some firecrackers.
Suddenly, a boy about fourteen or fifteen years old came onto the street and waved at Lin Shiqi and the others, "Fourth sister, fourth sister!"
Lin Shiqi didn't recognize who it was at first.
When Zhou Yaogu saw the man, she looked defensive and alert.
At the same time, he carefully looked at Lin Shiqi's expression...
So, Lin Shiqi turned around.
This is her younger brother from her mother’s side, Lin Dagen.
She has been traveling here for so long, and this is the first time she has met her family!
The original owner's memories suddenly emerged.
The Lin family favored boys over girls, so they gave birth to four daughters at once, and then to two sons, Lin Dagen and Lin Xiaogen.
Treat your daughter like grass and your son like a treasure. You have enslaved your daughter and brainwashed her since she was a child. The two younger brothers are the roots of the Lin family, so you must be good to them...
She, Lin Shiqi, is the fourth daughter in the Lin family.
Because she was born on the 17th, she was randomly named Seventeen.
Her family was very poor, and when she was a few years old, she was sold to Lao Zhou's family to Zhou Sisha as a child bride.
She has three older sisters.
The eldest sister is in the first grade of junior high school and her name is Lin Chuyi.
My second sister was born on the ninth day of the lunar month and her name is Lin Chujiu.
My third sister was born on the tenth day of the lunar calendar and her name is Lin Chushi.
She was born at the age of seventeen, so she was named Lin Shiqi.
In the original owner's memory, the eldest sister Lin died, the second sister Lin was sold to a boy when she was a child and there was no news of her since then, and the third sister Lin got married and married into a decent family.
Lin Shiqi's father is Lin Laogen, and her two younger brothers' names are more casual than theirs, Lin Dagen and Lin Xiaogen.
Da Gen is fifteen years old and Xiao Gen is thirteen years old.
The Lin couple looked upon the two brothers as if they were their lifeblood.
When it comes to naming, the illiterate Lin couple took a different approach.
…
The one calling her now is her big brother.
The young man had a shifty look in his eyes, which would roll around as he stared at people, as if evaluating them.
Of course, the object of this assessment is Zhou Yaogu.
When it comes to Lin Shiqi, all that's left is a condescending attitude.
"Fourth sister, why haven't you been back to your parents' home recently? Dad and mom are looking forward to your return home every day. Mom is so worried about you that she's going to get sick. What's wrong with you?" The tone was also condescending.
Lin Shiqi replied indifferently, "There are many things to do at home. I'm busy."
As far as I can remember, the last time I went back to my mother’s home was when I was beaten out by Lin’s mother.
Just because she didn't bring back anything good.
The original owner was a brother-supporting demon. She was brainwashed by Lin's mother, who told her to think about her two brothers no matter what. She told her not to forget that the old Lin family was her mother's family and her two brothers were the roots of the old Lin family. She also told her to give all the good things to her mother's family...
Therefore, when the original owner came to the Zhou family as a child bride, she secretly sold the things allocated to the fourth room by the Zhou family and tried to take them back to her parents' home.
Later, Mrs. Zhou found out and became wary of her.
Things from the fourth room were no longer given to her and she was not allowed to handle them.
Then, she began to hide the food secretly. She didn't dare hide other people's food, so she only hid her own portion.
Later, it was discovered by Mrs. Zhou, who didn't leave her any more food, but only some leftovers.
That's how it was. She even saved up the leftovers and brought them back to her parents' home. In the end, she starved herself to death...
The key point is that her family members thought she was useless and sent her a few broken pieces of steamed bread for the last time.
She was scolded by Lin's mother, who despised her for being useless.
She was asked why she had been a child bride in the Zhou family for so many years but had no skills at all. The Zhou family was recognized as a well-off family in several nearby villages, but she, a decent daughter-in-law, would bring back some steamed bread crumbs every now and then to fool them.
At that time, it happened that Third Sister Lin stole ten taels of silver from her husband's family and took it back to honor her mother. Mother Lin scattered the crumbs of the steamed bread on the ground, beat her with a stick, and drove her out.
…
Lin Dagen was stunned.
Every time the fourth sister saw her, she would smile and ask about her well-being.
Why is there no response today?
Still feeling a little cold?
"Fourth sister, your husband's family is busy, so you can't spare any time to go back to your parents' home to see them? How come you have no filial piety at all? You don't want your parents anymore? It was wrong for your mother to hit you last time, but how can a grudge between your parents last be held overnight?" Lin Dagen continued.
Zhou Yaogu wanted to interrupt, but she was not sure what Lin Shiqi was thinking.
Lin Shiqi now is not as easy to bully as before.
If she gets upset, who will she go to for money from making clothes?
No matter how anxious you are, you have to endure it.
Over here,
Lin Shiqi said, "I don't bear a grudge. Mother despises me for being poor, and I will be embarrassed if I go back. I am limited in ability and cannot meet her requirements. If I go back, she will be annoyed. I will go back to see my parents during the Chinese New Year!"
Lin Dagen rolled his eyes, "See, Fourth Sister is still angry with Mom! Fourth Sister, please stop being angry. How can we hold a grudge against each other overnight? You haven't been back to your parents' home recently. Mom and Dad have reflected on themselves several times in the house. Mom said that she was wrong to lose her temper last time, so she asked me to come and apologize to you on her behalf today..."
As he said this, he bowed.
Lin Shiqi frowned. This boy Lin Dagen was quite eloquent.
It seems that he came prepared.
