Although Li's mother was unhappy, she still prepared a bicycle for Li Shanshan and kept 150 yuan in the suitcase.
"Mom, what you gave is too little!" Li Shanshan pouted in dissatisfaction.
"If you don't like it, don't take it. Take the things given by your grandson family and get out of here." Li 꿵 also lost face yesterday.
The daughter that he had raised with so much difficulty, not only did he not receive a single cent as a betrothal gift, he also had to pay it back.
And their family is made a laughing stock in front of all the relatives. However, this daughter is still so greedy that she has been thinking about stealing things from her parents' home before she even gets married.
How could this not make Li 꿵 feel chilled.
"Mom, look at my dad..." Li Shanshan's eyes turned red with grievance.
"Alright, alright, stop talking, old man." Li's mother soothed.
"Humph! You will regret it one day." Li Xiao said, then walked into the house.
"Mom, where is my elder brother? How much dowry does he plan to give me?" Li Shanshan is still thinking about him.
She had mentioned it jokingly when her eldest brother got married.
Her eldest brother had said at the time that he would give her a radio to add to her financial resources, and she remembered it clearly.
Mother Li glared at her and said, "You just had such a big fight with your sister-in-law, and you even hit her in front of your eldest brother. And you still want him to make up for you? Dream on. Come on, go to sleep."
On Li Baoguo's side, the couple had already been lying in bed, discussing this matter.
"I don't care about Li Shanshan adding makeup. How much you add depends on your feelings. You have to remember one thing. When Li Shanshan comes back to her parents' home in the future, I will not give her the cold shoulder. But don't even think about me showing my warm face to her cold butt."
Lu Xiaoyue figured it out.
She just treated Li Shanshan as an ordinary relative. No matter what she did, it would be bad, and she was too lazy to pretend.
"Okay, I got it, don't worry." Li Baoguo held her in his arms, rested his chin on the top of Lu Xiaoyue's head, and patted her back to comfort her.
Cheng Yunan regarded the affairs of the Li family as a lively matter.
Tonight she gave Li Hongmei acupuncture for the first time.
Li Hongmei was so frightened when she saw the long needle that she began to have second thoughts.
I don't know if this will work for my sister-in-law, but I'd better not hurt her.
Then I thought, the ointment she made must be very effective, with her mother-in-law's face as the proof, and she fiddled with the ointment from time to time...
While she was daydreaming, Cheng Yunan had already taken out silver needles and gently pressed several acupuncture points on her body with his fingers.
"Sister-in-law, don't think too much. You will feel it when my needle goes in. Now all you have to do is relax, trust me, and stay quiet. Otherwise, I will be in trouble if I am distracted."
This worked, and Li Hongmei immediately closed her eyes obediently, not daring to have any thoughts at all.
Cheng Yunan curled his lips, showing satisfaction.
With full concentration, the silver needle seemed to have its own consciousness and landed at the several major acupoints that had just been pressed at an extremely fast speed.
Li Hongmei couldn't help but half-open her eyes, and felt a flash of silver light before her eyes. The technique was so fast that it made her dizzy and she couldn't see her movements at all.
My god, the old man's expression just now was so scary. That technique and speed were made by a human.
It went in just like cutting radishes and cabbages. The key point was that the needle was so long that she didn't feel any pain at all.
There is a warm air flowing back and forth around the belly.
Ever since she gave birth to Xiaohe, her stomach has often felt cold.
Especially during my period, my stomach feels like it’s been soaked in ice water.
But now her stomach was warm and comfortable enough that she wanted to hum.
No wonder her parents-in-law trust her so much, it turns out she is really capable.
"Sister-in-law, you are amazing. I feel so comfortable all over my body now. I can't wait to lie down on the bed and have a good sleep."
Li Hongmei dared to speak only after Cheng Yunan had finished the needle treatment.
Cheng Yunan said: "Sister-in-law, you don't want to go to bed yet. You should take a medicinal bath before going to bed. By the way, you must take a medicinal bath for an hour before getting up.
The bathtub we have at home is not good. You can use it today. Tomorrow I will draw a bathtub pattern for you and ask Brother 괗 to ask the villagers to make a new one for you.
By the way, when you take a bath every day, drop a little of this in, not too much, otherwise it will destroy the efficacy of the medicine, do you understand?"
Cheng Yunan handed her a small medicine bottle containing the spiritual spring water she had diluted.
Li Hongmei held it in her hand solemnly, "I'll remember it, don't worry."
"Well, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
After arranging Li Hongmei's affairs, Cheng Yunan returned to his room, first went into the space to practice his medical skills, then took a comfortable bath, and then came out and slept until dawn.
"Mom, Zhen Xiao, President Zhuang has agreed to open a small food processing factory, but he has no money right now, so we rented a place to make braised and smoked chicken.
I thought since it's already salted, why not make a few more different things and flavors, so that there will be more choices.
For example, braised eggs, various braised vegetables, salted tofu, and bean curd skin.
Mom, do you know who in our village can make tofu or dried tofu and bean curd skin? "
Ma Xiu Lian knew every detail of the villagers, and I became more excited when I heard her say that.
"Hey! You're right. The daughter-in-law of the old Yang family in our village used to make braised tofu at home. The tofu she made was smooth and tender, and the dried tofu she made was also chewy. As for bean curd skin, I've never heard her talk about it.
There is also your eldest uncle's family. Your grandfather also knew how to make tofu, and he passed the skill to your eldest uncle. Your eldest uncle and eldest cousin also knew how to make tofu. But after the movement, they were not allowed to do so, so your eldest uncle usually made it for his family to eat.
Do you need a lot of dried tofu? If so, why not ask your uncle to deliver the goods to the factory as well?"
Ma Xiulian also has selfish motives.
The village where her mother came from was much poorer than Lu's village. It was close to the mountain, with little arable land, and a handful of grain was not enough to fill their stomachs.
It is not convenient to go in and out of the mountain, and even the vegetables you grow yourself cannot be sold outside.
From what Nan Nan said, she was planning to make salted dried tofu. If she could let her eldest brother deliver the dried tofu to the town, it would be an income at least.
"Really? That's great! I'm worried about not being able to find good dried tofu! Mom, please inform my uncle and cousin right away. It would be best if they can make it and send it over today. I can make a batch of samples and give them to President Zhuang and the others to try."
"Okay, Mom will go and notify them in a moment."
"By the way, Mom, my processing plant definitely needs manpower. I can't let my family members work hard all the time. I'll feel bad about that. So, Mom, I plan to recruit workers. The salary is a few yuan less than the construction company for now, 15 yuan a month, and nothing else for now. When the processing plant's business is good in the future, other benefits will be discussed separately."
This was something Cheng Yunan had thought of a long time ago. Since Ma Xiulian mentioned the relatives on her uncle's side, she might as well sell them out.
