Mrs. Qin was cooking dinner in the kitchen. The fourth sister-in-law came forward to help and complained, "Sister-in-law, why are you cooking again today?"
Mrs. Qin smiled at her and said, "Why? You don't want to eat the food I cooked."
She put the meat into the pan and soon it became fragrant after stir-frying.
The fourth sister-in-law took a deep breath and said, "That's not what I meant. Now that the third sister-in-law is married into the family, why don't you let her do the work?
Everyone in our family has to work, but my third sister-in-law can sleep until noon as soon as she comes home."
"My third sister-in-law is different from us. She's an educated youth, a city dweller. How can we let her do this kind of work?"
The fourth brother's wife was very disdainful. "So what if she's from the city? Didn't she marry into our family anyway? I think you should put a damper on her prestige."
Mrs. Qin added water to the pot and stewed the meat.
"Why should I be so arrogant? I only married in two years earlier than you. Why should I be so arrogant now?"
"Then you are also the eldest daughter-in-law of the Qin family, and she has to listen to what you say."
She glanced at the door and saw that no one was there, so she lowered her voice and whispered, "I just saw her coming out of Mom's room with the passbook in her hand.
I've been married into the family for several years, but I haven't seen the bankbook. Mom has always favored my third brother, so I guess she emptied all the family savings to them."
Mrs. Qin was stunned. Her mother called her third brother's wife over just to give her the passbook.
My fourth brother’s wife was right. She had been married for so many years and had never seen what the family’s passbook looked like.
"Could you have seen it wrong?"
"How could I be wrong? I saw it clearly."
Mrs. Qin couldn't help but frown. It didn't make sense.
Why would mom give the passbook to my third brother’s wife? Does she want her to be the head of the family?
That's impossible. My parents are still so healthy, how could they let someone else take charge of the family?
Besides, my third brother’s wife just got married. Even if mom wants to choose someone to be the head of the family, she should be the one.
Or did Mom give her own private money to my third brother and his wife?
Although my mother's character can't be 100% fair, she won't be biased to that extent.
Even if they gave some private money, the three sisters-in-law should all have a share, not just the third brother's wife.
Seeing that she was silent, the fourth sister-in-law complained dissatisfiedly, "Mom is too partial. They are all her sons, how can she favor one over the other?
Even if you want to give money, you can't just give it to the third brother. We all need it. Why only focus on them? Aren't the eldest brother and the fourth brother her children? "
Mother Qin came out with an angry face, "What are you talking about? Giving her some private money? That's all the money the third son sent back home. I'm just keeping it for him temporarily.
Now that the third brother has married, what's wrong with me returning the money to him?"
Mrs. Qin and the fourth sister-in-law didn't expect that what they said would be heard by Qin's mother. They turned pale with fear and said, "Mom, that's not what we meant."
“I don’t care what you mean, this is the rule in our house: whoever earns should spend as much as he earns.
Your father and I are still strong and healthy, and we won't take a penny from you."
Mrs. Qin and the fourth brother's wife were so embarrassed that their faces turned red and they couldn't say a word.
Mother Qin ignored them and turned back to her room.
Now that the children have grown up and married, they each have their own thoughts.
It is said that when children grow up, get married and have children, the elderly can enjoy their lives.
In her opinion, even if the children really get married and have children, the elderly will still have a lot to worry about.
Shen An Nian returned to the room and saw Qin Zhengqi in the room. She said to him, "Mom just called me over and gave me a passbook. She said that the allowances you sent back over the years are all in the passbook."
She handed the passbook to Qin Zhengqi, who was puzzled. "What are you giving it to me for?"
"This is your salary. I can't take it. You should keep it for yourself."
"Just accept what mom gives you. There's nothing you can't take."
Well, since he said so, then I'll keep it for him first. At worst, she can just not use the money in it.
Qin Zhengqi suddenly stood up, walked to the cabinet, rummaged through it, found a passbook and handed it to her.
Shen Annian took it and opened it, and there were more than 700 yuan inside.
"How can there be so much money?"
"This is the bonus I received in the army. Every time I received subsidies and bonuses, I would deposit them into my passbook."
He paused and added, "You don't have to worry about spending money when buying things for yourself in the future."
Shen Annian was stunned for a moment, then he understood. He thought she didn't buy anything because she wanted to save money.
Actually, it’s not.
There was still a lot of food and daily necessities in the space, which she could not use up at all.
As for the clothes in the supply and marketing cooperative... she traveled here from several decades later and thought the styles of the clothes here were too old-fashioned, so she was not interested.
As for buying cloth to make her own clothes, forget it, she didn't know how to do it herself, so she didn't buy cloth.
I didn't expect such a big misunderstanding.
"I'm not trying to save money, I just don't have anything I want to buy."
"The money is yours. As long as you don't do anything illegal, you can spend it however you want."
The corners of Shen Annian's mouth twitched. What illegal things could she do?
I originally wanted to return the passbook to him, but I didn't expect that not only did I not return it, but I also got all his assets.
I feel a little embarrassed for some reason.
"You gave me all the money, what should I do with myself?"
"I still have some money on hand, and I don't have to spend much in the army, so it's enough.
My monthly allowance is 80 yuan. From now on, I will keep 5 yuan for myself and give 10 yuan to my parents.
