Zhao Guihua and the others didn't just come back, they came back when they were having a great time.
But she was not stupid enough to go into the yard at this time. Isn't this like an old man hanging himself to death? They caught so many fish. If someone saw them, there might be a lot of trouble. So Zhao Guihua was very careful.
She was the first to enter the door, but as soon as she entered, she heard the big and small people arranging their affairs.
She glanced at Hutou, who shrank behind Mingmei. He just said he was a real man, but now he is just a cowardly little kid who can't be trusted at all. Mingmei's eyes wandered, and she kept laughing.
Zhao Guihua rolled her eyes at her and said, "You are so capable, but you still gossip about me behind my back."
Mingmei was startled and said immediately, "Mom, you misunderstood me. That's not what I meant. I actually respect you the most. When I said you look hard to mess with, I didn't mean you're a bad person. I'm not hard to mess with myself either. It's actually good to be hard to mess with."
She patted her chest and said, "I think sometimes being difficult to mess with is also an advantage. Being difficult to mess with means less trouble."
Zhao Guihua: “You.”
Mingmei observed her mother-in-law's expression and saw that she didn't seem angry, so she immediately came forward and said, "Mom, what did you do?"
She looked curiously, and her eyes lit up as she glanced at them. She said in surprise, "So many fish!"
The big fish looked very attractive and delicious. Mingmei: "So plump and delicious!"
Zhao Guihua: "Okay, stop talking nonsense to me and help me."
Her eyes fell on the two cubs and she said, "You two should all go back to the house. Don't stay here."
"Okay~" Hu Tou led his sister Xiao Yan Zi and quickly retreated. Before leaving, he said righteously: "Grandma, there is an egg in the noodle soup, don't scold Auntie. I was greedy!"
After saying that, fearing she would be beaten, she quickly dragged her sister to her room. Zhao Guihua glanced at Mingmei again and said, "Did you beat the eggs?"
Mingmei nodded immediately, smiled softly, and said, "I think you must have done something important today. It would be nice to have some soup when you come back to warm you up. Add an egg to enhance the flavor."
Zhao Guihua: "One is too few."
Mingmei: "Hey? Hey?"
She was stunned! She looked at her mother-in-law in surprise. Zhao Guihua glared at her and said, "What? Do you think I'm such a stingy person? I can't bear to eat an egg? There's only one egg in this big pot of noodle soup. There's not a single egg in it. There are eight people in our family. You have to put two at least!"
Mingmei immediately smiled and said, "I knew mom was different from other people."
Zhao Guihua: "Stop flattering me."
Mingmei said seriously: "I didn't, you are the most capable old lady. That's absolutely true. How can ordinary people catch so many big fish? Oh, where is my man?"
She then realized that she hadn't seen Zhuang Zhixi. Where was Zhuang Zhixi? Zhao Guihua: "I asked them to wait for a while. I'll come back to check the situation. We can't let anyone see this."
Mingmei gave a thumbs up and said, "Mom, you still have a plan."
Zhao Guihua smiled and thought that although this daughter-in-law was really not good at work and was a greedy cat, she was a very fair person! She always told the truth and was a real person.
"What happened in the yard today? Why is it so noisy? They are so idle all day long." Zhao Guihua asked.
Mingmei was immediately excited. As someone who had just tasted the melon, she was very happy to share what she knew with others. She gestured and performed without props on the spot, and performed it very quickly. Finally, she said excitedly: "Here, that's it!"
Zhao Guihua: “…”
You are so excited.
But she still said calmly, "None of them is a good person. Zhou Li was plotting against Su Jinlai's kids. She guessed that the three boys in the Su family were not clean, so she deliberately put out the inedible peanuts to be stolen, so that she could get compensation. The Su family's bad boys were indeed not clean, but I guess the top layer of peanuts must be good. If they really had green hairs and could not be eaten, they would not take it. They are greedy, not stupid. If it was really all that kind, the children would not take it. Zhou Li must have put a good layer on top to cheat money. They must have taken advantage of it, so no one can blame anyone. Zhou Li lost more than she gained, and it is normal for the kid to be beaten for stealing."
Mingmei gave a thumbs up again: "You are really amazing. I haven't figured it out yet. As the saying goes, old ginger is the wisest. Mom, you are really amazing."
Zhao Guihua laughed proudly and said, "Don't I know them? As soon as they stick out their butts, I know what they want to do."
Speaking of this, Mingmei remembered something and said curiously, "Mom. Zhou Lishi, isn't her last name Li? Why do people call her Aunt Zhou? It's not like she doesn't have a last name, it's really weird."
Zhao Guihua pouted, looking extremely disgusted, and said, "Who else could it be? Wasn't it that Aunt Su? Back then, when Old Su and Old Zhou were in the workshop, they had an accident together. Now they are both widows. Aunt Su has three children, and life must be more difficult than that of the Zhou family. She went to the factory to cry many times, swearing that she would never remarry in her life, and only wanted to raise her children well. She would be a member of the Su family in life and a ghost of the Su family in death. In the future, there would be no Zhao Erya, her real name, but only Su Dasao. She had a harder time herself, and people would show weakness, so she got more than the Zhou family. Zhou Lishi has a bad mouth and a bad heart, and it all shows on her face. People hate her, so naturally she is not liked by people. She learned from Aunt Su and claimed that she would only have the surname Zhou in the future. Look, she was Zhou Dasao when she was young, and now she is Aunt Zhou."
For a moment she didn't know what to say.
Zhao Guihua: "Back then, the Su family got more than the Zhou family, so Zhou Li hated Aunt Su. In addition, Aunt Su also worked in the factory at that time, and she always stepped on Zhou Li's performance. They were both widows, so needless to say, this comparison? When the Su family boy and Zhou Qun grew up, the two boys were also compared. The Su family boy has given birth to three sons, while Zhou Qun has no children. Do you think Zhou Li felt relieved? On the day when Su boy got into trouble, Zhou Li happily bought a roast duck to celebrate. You can imagine how much hatred the two families have."
Mingmei: "Oh my god, this is too much, isn't it? Someone's family member passed away and she celebrated?"
Zhao Guihua: "So the relationship between the two families is not good, but our family and their family don't have a very good relationship."
Mingmei: “!!!”
Zhao Guihua smiled, but her smile was mocking. She said, "So I tell you, there is no easy job in this courtyard. The two bachelors in the Bai family have no women, Chef Li's family has no sons, the Su and Zhou families have no men, and the Su family has no sons. After all, our family is the most reunited. Sometimes, the happiness of your family is also the reason for others to dislike it."
Mingmei was silent for a long time. She mustered up her courage and said, "So what! The more they envy us, the better off we will be!"
Zhao Guihua: "Yes, let's live well."
Mingmei laughed when she heard the voices of agreement. At this moment, the door creaked open and several other people from the Ming family quietly came in.
Zhuang Laonian looked at his old lady with grievance and complained, "You old woman, didn't you say that you would give us a signal when you came back and saw that there was no problem? We have been waiting for a long time, but it didn't come. Fortunately, the third boy was cunning and secretly came to the yard to investigate. Otherwise, we would have to wait until the end of time!!!"
Zhao Guihua's face turned red, and she didn't know what to say for a moment. She really forgot about this matter. But is it her fault? Blame! Her! No! She said decisively: "Mingmei kept talking to me, and delayed it."
Mingmei opened her eyes wide. Ah... How could she be blamed for no reason? Such a big blame! Zhao Guihua felt embarrassed for only a moment. Her face turned red for a short time. She said decisively, "Why don't you wait a little longer? Isn't it safer to come back later? If someone sees this and steals it from us, the little thief next door will be out again."
"Hey, is this the reason for the commotion in the yard just now?"
"Of course."
Zhao Guihua decisively changed the subject and said, "Okay, I'll clean the fish and make it into salted fish, so that we can have more meat dishes in the future."
When this was mentioned, everyone in the dealership was beaming with joy. Isn't this a happy thing? They caught 40 or 50 fish this afternoon. This year, I plan to bring this as a gift. It's very decent and saves money on buying things.
Zhuang Zhiyuan: "Mom, please leave four for me. I will go to our boss' place during the New Year."
If you want your work to go smoothly, giving gifts during the Chinese New Year is essential.
His job is different from that of a machinery factory. For riveters like Zhuang Laonian, no one will bother them if they work seriously. But for someone like Zhuang Zhiyuan who has to drive long-distance trains and wants better shifts and better days off, he has to make some arrangements.
Otherwise, I would still be on the train on New Year’s Eve and the first day of the New Year.
He didn't understand anything when he first started working and suffered a lot of losses, but now he is much more sensible.
Zhao Guihua: "I know about this. I'll prepare it for you, Mingmei. When you go back to your parents' home tomorrow, bring two..." After a pause, she said, "It's better to bring four, and a chicken. Then go to the grocery store and buy a pound of snacks and a pound of candy. It will be decent."
Mingmei nodded in agreement: "Okay."
This kind of return gift is quite good.
Sure enough, she soon received a look of resentment and jealousy from her elder sister-in-law Liang Meifen. Mingmei proudly puffed out her chest and said: Go ahead and be jealous! "Mom, I know you love me the most." Mingmei said sweetly to Zhao Guihua, "I like you so much."
Zhao Guihua shook off the goose bumps on her body and said, "Speak to me properly."
Mingmei smiled brightly and said, "I like you for speaking well. You are really the best mother-in-law."
Zhao Guihua raised the corner of her mouth...
Priscilla Leung: Flatterer, flatterer, flatterer, big flatterer!!! One day, I will let the whole world know that you are a flatterer! I will expose your true face as a flatterer!
Wang Xiangxiu was lying on the bed, thinking about the grievances she had suffered today, crying silently. She didn't know why, but she seemed to smell a fishy smell...
Is it a fish? Whose family is catching fish? (End of this chapter)
