Chapter 33 Choose One, Who Do You Want?
Putting the past aside, Liu Mei said with a smile, "You can do whatever you want with the scraps of cloth you brought back. It won't take me too much time to make a hair ornament. But it's best not to take their money, as it will have a bad influence. Just two eggs will be enough as a token of your appreciation."
Xu Yao nodded happily, "All up to you."
First make a few head flowers and see the response. If the response is good when they wear them, and then people come to ask about it, then this business can be done.
It’s just that it’s not made in the county town, it can be sold in the countryside.
Xu Yao is not short of money now, but Xu Gang is still single. He needs to have a house before he can get married, right? Furniture is another item of the betrothal gift.
He has a rural hukou, and if he wants to transfer to an urban hukou, he needs to have a job. Xu Weidong was only in his forties, so it was impossible for him to transfer the job to Xu Gang, because after Xu Gang took over, his salary for the first few years was calculated as an apprentice, which was only a dozen yuan per month...
Xu Weidong has a seniority bonus, so his salary will increase a little bit every year, and after he retires, he can still receive a pension every month.
By this calculation, it is more profitable for Xu Weidong to work while Xu Gang slowly does business. If you think about it carefully, there are many areas where they are short of money.
…
The sun was high in the sky, but Liu Mei didn't see her in-laws and their son. Instead, Liu Xianglan came uninvited.
It was a hot day, and Xu Lanxiang rushed into the house holding an umbrella.
"Uncle. Uncle, are you home?"
"Get lost, you are not welcome in our home!"
Xu Gang, who was sitting in the main room and learning how to make hair flowers with Liu Mei, noticed Xu Lanxiang with his sharp eyes. He immediately straightened up and stared at her with disgust.
"Brother, what did I do wrong that you treat me like this?" Xu Lanxiang finished her chat and looked around, "Where is my uncle?"
She gave Xu Yao more than ten yuan for a blind date last time, which caused her to use up her living expenses for this month in advance. So she took advantage of the lunch break to rush from school to the textile factory where Xu Weidong worked. Her coworkers said that Xu Weidong was working the night shift and was not here yet, so she had to rush over from the textile factory again.
But I didn’t expect to see Liu Mei and her son here!
What's wrong with Xu Weidong? Why would he take them in to live with him?
Judging from the furnishings, they must have been living there for a few days.
Could it be that Xu Yao and Liang Zhicheng are together, and Xu Weidong wants to please Xu Yao?
Thinking of this possibility, Xu Lanxiang felt proud and looked at Xu Gang with pity.
I'm afraid Xu Gang doesn't know yet that his most beloved sister is in a tiger's den right now? She knew very well what kind of person Liang Zhicheng was. Even if Liang Zhicheng was attracted by Xu Yao's beauty and was willing to marry her, Xu Yao would not have a good life.
Not to mention Liang Ze, the difficult stepson, Liang Zhicheng, who likes domestic violence, is enough for Xu Yao to bear. It is very likely that she will be beaten to death. After all, the person before Liang Zhicheng died in this way.
Xu Lanxiang's lips were peeling from the scorching sun. She turned to Liu Mei and said pitifully, "Auntie, is there any water at home?"
"Would you like to drink the urine?"
Seeing Xu Yao, who was dressed beautifully and had a rosy complexion, walking out of the house, Xu Lanxiang looked as if she had seen a ghost, "You, why are you here?!"
Xu Yao rolled her eyes unceremoniously, "Shouldn't I be the one asking you this? Why are you coming to my house?"
Just as I was fighting with Xu Weidong for the last steamed bun in the kitchen, I heard a dog barking. What bad luck.
"Uncle."
At this moment, Xu Lanxiang saw Xu Weidong behind Xu Yao, and immediately went up to him with tears in her eyes, looking aggrieved.
She was full of doubts and wanted to ask, so she pulled Xu Weidong to the backyard.
"Uncle, I don't know the situation at school. Did my elder sister and Director Liang get together? I think she's doing well now. She's gained a lot of weight on her face, and she and Jia'an are wearing new clothes. I feel relieved to see that she's doing well."
Xu Weidong's expression changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "She is doing very well now."
Xu Jiaan’s biological father came over yesterday, probably bringing a lot of good stuff. He wanted to try what the beef cubes tasted like, but his unfilial daughter was only willing to lick the packaging bag.
If he treats her father like this now, he can never expect her to take care of him in his old age.
After hearing Xu Yao's current situation from her own mouth, Xu Lanxiang felt very uncomfortable. She didn't even feel it when her nails dug into the flesh of her palm.
They are both sisters of the Xu family. Why should Xu Yao, who is fair-skinned and graceful, be exempted from sun exposure and farm work?
Just because she is dark and ugly, does she deserve to go up the mountain to chop wood and go down the mountain to feed pigs?
What's more, Xu Yao is the eldest daughter in the family, and those housework should have been done by Xu Yao.
What made Xu Lanxiang even more unbalanced was that her uncle actually saved the big boss and became a member of the working class! Every month he used his salary to buy new clothes for Xu Yao and took her out to restaurants.
Her father could only dig for food in the fields and wait for God to give him food.
This is not fair!
Xu Lanxiang swore since she was a child that she would take everything from Xu Yao.
She studied hard and used dishonorable means to provoke others, and finally became a genius in the eyes of her teacher and a golden phoenix in the eyes of the villagers, and also won the heart of her uncle.
Only she herself knows that she actually has limited talent. It was okay when she was a child, as she couldn't learn the high school textbooks just by working hard. However, it was already a great achievement for her to be admitted to university.
Xu Lanxiang smiled disdainfully.
Liang Zhicheng is still interested in Xu Yao now, so it's normal for him to be nice to her. But when he gets tired of her in the future, Xu Yao will be the one to pay attention to.
At that time, she had already become a successful college student.
"The college entrance examination is only a month away. In order to live up to your expectations, I study until late at night every day. I am often too hungry to sleep, and I tend to be dazed in the morning. The teacher asked me to supplement my nutrition, so I can only shamelessly come to you.
Don't worry, I will get into university and find a good job in the city to settle down, and then I will bring you over to take care of you in your old age. The old man in the big city plays chess and practices Tai Chi in the park every day, and his life is very comfortable..."
Xu Weidong was very moved when he heard this.
His children are not filial, so he can only rely on his promising niece in the future. What a pity -
"Xiangxiang, I understand what you said, but Xu Yao collected my salary on my behalf. I saved more than ten yuan of private money and gave it to you. If you spend frugally, it should be enough to last until your college entrance examination."
What? ?
Xu Lanxiang's pupils trembled, "She collected your salary on your behalf? What's going on?"
Xu Weidong was just about to talk about the threats he had received when a chaotic sound of footsteps was heard behind them.
Look back.
Liu Mei, Xu Gang, Xu Yao, and Xu Jiaan, four pairs of eyes stared at him eagerly.
Xu Yao clapped expressionlessly, "He hid more than ten yuan of private money, that's impressive."
Xu Gang twisted his lips and said, "We shouldn't have saved his meal and let him pay for it himself and eat in the cafeteria."
Xu Jiaan's face was calm, "Mom said, it's never too late to mend the fence after the sheep have been lost."
"Then I won't cook for him anymore." Liu Mei looked disappointed.
She thought that after being kicked out by the second wife, Xu Weidong would change for the better and realize who his family really was. Xu Yao had already anticipated that a dog would always eat shit, so she crossed her arms over her chest and raised her red lips in a sarcastic arc.
"Make a choice, your good niece or our family."
