Chapter 273 The Eagle-like Woman (Page 1/2)
After sending his daughter and son-in-law away in the car, Han Shicai was not in a hurry to take his eldest son Zhang Tong back.
The uncle driving the mule cart also happened to be transporting some goods today, so we agreed to meet at the post office.
The mother and daughter are coming to the post office to make a phone call.
The post office was also open. It was still early so there weren't many people around, so I was able to make the call smoothly.
Soon Han's mother came to answer the phone.
When she heard it was her eldest daughter, Han's mother immediately smiled and asked, "Have Laixi and Xiaozhen finished setting the table?"
"Yes." Han Shicai's voice was filled with joy: "Mom, thank you so much for finding such a good partner for Xiaozhen!"
She and Zhang Fa and his wife also knew that the person chosen by Han's mother, her biological grandmother, and Han Shiguo, her younger uncle, for their daughter would not be a bad person, but Nian Lixi, the son-in-law, was still more outstanding than they expected.
After coming back these few days, the couple both felt very proud!
Just as she said, who in the village wouldn't envy her for having such a son-in-law?
Especially he is very filial.
Just yesterday, Nian Lixi took his elder brother-in-law Zhang Tong to the mountains, shot several pheasants, and brought back a lot of pheasant eggs.
It is also specially reserved for them to nourish their bodies.
This son-in-law is not only promising, but also very thoughtful!
Even through the phone, Han's mother could hear her daughter's joy and said with a smile, "Why are you thanking me? Xiaozhen is my granddaughter, how can I not hope for her well? You don't have to worry about her, you know? We live very close here."
"I know." Han Shicai said, "I heard from Xiaozhen that Qianqian prepared so much dowry for her?"
"Yes, we have bought all the big quilts for the winter. As a mother, I guess I may not be able to prepare so much dowry for my daughter. But Qianqian didn't let me say too much. She said that Xiaozhen has worked hard over the years, and this is her gift for her." Han's mother said.
"Qianqian has been taking care of us over the past few years." Han Shicai told the truth.
The house was renovated because of the money sent back every year. Otherwise, how could we possibly come up with 200 yuan to renovate the house with just the meager income of the family?
There is one in the family, especially a daughter.
Although my daughter’s photos are sent back every year, I can tell from the photos that she is living well over there.
But when I came back and saw her in person this time, I realized that after my daughter passed away, she was almost raised like her own daughter by her aunt.
My daughter said that there was nothing that was lacking for her, whether it was food, clothing or daily necessities.
Moreover, her aunt would encourage her to read more books, teach her some principles, and when she took her younger brothers out shopping, she would also call her to go see the world.
Han Shicai is really grateful to his brother's wife.
Mother Han smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Just run your family well."
Because the phone call was expensive, we hung up without talking much.
However, Han's mother still told Jiang Qian about this when she got off work at noon.
Jiang Qian smiled and said, "Don't tell Big Sister to think that way."
As I said, she never felt that she owed much to Zhang Xiaozhen. Zhang Xiaozhen really helped her keep the house in order over the past few years.
It can be said that the compensation Zhang Xiaozhen received was what she deserved.
As for making new clothes for her, it was because Zhang Xiaozhen was capable, so she was willing to love her more.
But all these things she gave were subject to certain conditions, and she was not a saint who asked for nothing.
So it’s not really a big favor.
If Zhang Xiaozhen is attentive, she should remember that her aunt-in-law was very nice to her. That would be enough, and there is no need to say too much else.
