Chapter 3 I Want to Strangle You to Death
Su He ate an egg, half a bowl of porridge, and half a steamed bun and was full. Gu's mother kept complaining that she ate too little and should eat more.
"Oh, mom, my stomach is so small. I feel like vomiting if I eat too much." Su He was helpless. She had heard this since she was a child!
Her parents often say that at home.
It is true that she has a small appetite, but it is also true that she is picky about food. If there are meat dishes, she can eat two more bowls of rice.
"This child, others are eager to eat more, but you only eat a few bites." Mother Gu muttered as she cleared the table.
Seeing that it was getting late, Su He went into the house, took his backpack and prepared to go to work in the county.
Seeing that Su He was about to leave, Gu's mother hurriedly went into the house, got out a basket of things and handed it to her, saying, "Take Xiao He over to your parents."
"What, Mom?"
Su He opened the cloth covering the top and found a killed chicken inside. Under the chicken were eggs, estimated to be more than thirty in number.
"Mom, let's keep these for ourselves. My parents have some."
"You kid, your parents must have spent money to buy these, so take them away. We have plenty more eggs at home!"
"Bring it to your in-laws to eat!"
Su He couldn't refuse, so he smiled and said, "Thank you, Mom."
Mother Gu waved her hand, "Go quickly, don't be late."
"Come back early tonight. Your father said he wants to kill some chickens."
"Okay, Mom."
Su He hung the basket on the handlebars of his bicycle and rode out.
Mother Gu looked at her daughter-in-law's back and became more and more satisfied. The smile on her lips grew wider.
In the first half of her life, she was scolded by her mother-in-law, laughed at by her sisters-in-law, and pointed at by the villagers because she gave birth to three daughters. The situation did not improve until she gave birth to her son and the family was divided.
Later, when her son grew up and joined the army, all the women in the village envied her, especially her sister-in-law Zhang Xiuying, who spoke to her with a sour tone!
Humph, so what if Zhang Xiuying gave birth to three sons? All three sons combined are not as promising as her one son!
Not to mention that her son married a girl from the city this year. Not only is her daughter-in-law pretty, she is also a teacher. She works in the city and gets paid every month.
My daughter-in-law's family conditions are very good. Both her parents are workers and she has three brothers, all of whom are very successful!
When the two children got married, the daughter-in-law brought back the bicycle that their family had given as a betrothal gift. Not only that, the in-laws also bought the two children a sewing machine, made two large wardrobes, two sets of double quilts and two sets of single quilts.
These are all big items. She didn't mention the small items like washbasins and towels.
In her more than 40 years of life, Gu's mother has never been as proud as she is this year. Her son makes her proud, and the daughter-in-law her son finds makes her even more proud.
The women in the village envied her to death.
She goes out for a walk now, and the air smells sweet, especially in front of her sister-in-law Zhang Xiuying.
Unlucky!
Su He felt a bit unlucky. Not long after she went out, she ran into the heroine and her mother!
That is her second cousin Wu Sanfeng and her little daughter Gu Li!
Wu Sanfeng was holding her little girl in her arms when she saw Su He riding a bicycle towards her. The smile on her face instantly widened. "Hey, sister-in-law, are you going to work? I was just about to look for you."
Then he said to her daughter, "Xiao Li, call me Auntie."
Gu Li said obediently, "Auntie."
In the past, in this situation, Su He would definitely smile and agree, pinch Gu Li's little face again and say, "Our little Li is so pretty," and then take out two rock candies from his pocket for her to eat.
Now, haha, she wants to strangle her to death if she wants to eat rock candy!
"Second sister-in-law wants to see me for something?"
Su He was too lazy to argue with her and asked directly.
Wu Sanfeng didn't notice Su He's abnormality. She sighed, "This naughty boy wants to eat taro cake, but we don't have any cake tickets at home!"
"I just wanted to ask you if you have one. If you do, I'll lend it to you. I'll return it to you when I have one."
Well, the book says that the heroine Gu Li is the only girl in the family, and she has six older brothers, so she is very spoiled at home!
As expected, she was very pampered. If she wanted to eat caozi cake but didn't have a ticket, she would lend it to her to buy it. In that era, not to mention girls, even boys didn't have this kind of treatment.
She is worthy of being the heroine!
Su He heard this and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, I don't have any either. I've used them all up!"
"Ah? You don't have any?" Wu Sanfeng didn't believe it.
"no."
"Sister-in-law, I'm in a hurry to go to work, so I'm leaving first!"
After saying this, he pedaled the wheel and rode away.
Leaving Wu Sanfeng alone to mess around, no, what does she mean? Is she in such a hurry to go to work? It's not even her working time yet!
Besides, how could she not have any tickets? Her whole family is from the city. If she doesn’t have any, then don’t her parents and brother have any either?
Besides, her mother works in the supply and marketing cooperative, so she can buy a pound of tiaozi cake even without a ticket, right?
Even if these are not enough, she should have talked to her nicely, like saying "sister-in-law, I will lend it to you next time".
Why did you leave without saying a word?
How rude! How did Su He's parents teach her?
What is this? Are the city people arrogant? They look down on the country people and don't want to hear a word from them.
Pooh!
This thing was born by a mother but not taught by her!
Wu Sanfeng felt better only after he scolded Su He.
After hearing what her mother said, little Gu Li kissed her cheek and said in a baby voice, "Mom, the fourth aunt is so bad. When I grow up, I will help you beat her!"
"Oh, my daughter is still sensible. Your aunt is not as sensible as a two-year-old child!"
Wu Sanfeng pinched her girlfriend's face and walked back with her hips twisted.
Little Gu Li continued, "She didn't even give me any rock candy today."
"We don't want hers, let's buy our own!"
........
Rock Sugar Loan Ticket
You wish! I will never lend her money in this lifetime!
In the book, her second cousin-in-law scolded her daughter a lot, saying things like "shameless, born by a mother but not raised by her", "a sycophant", "a lover of being a mistress", "being ridden by thousands of men"...all kinds of nasty things.
The readers also applauded her, saying that this is the best kind of mother, frank and protective of her son!
Her son died in a car accident, and Gu Li's three brothers took over her son's company in the name of relatives, saying that as relatives, they could not bear to see the company go bankrupt without anyone to manage it, and even if the company was making a loss, they would take over the management.
She just couldn't believe that there were people in this world who would do a business knowing that it would lose money.
Definitely not, unless it would bring him greater benefits.
No matter what, their family will never succeed in this life. The hero and heroine can never climb up by stepping on her children and her three brothers!
