Cao Maizi tactfully said, "You two sisters haven't seen each other for several days, have a good chat. I'm going to the livestock shed to check on the cattle."
Su Xueli said sweetly, "Go ahead and do your work, Mom."
As soon as Cao Maizi left, Yan Yan praised, "Xue Li, your mother-in-law is so good."
Su Xueli nodded: "My in-laws are very kind to me, they treat me like their own daughter."
Yan Yan praised her: "You are so lucky. I don't know what it will be like if I marry into his family. My mother-in-law looks like she is not easy to get along with. She has a gloomy face and is very scary."
Yan Yan lowered her head, looking preoccupied.
Su Xueli thought to herself, "You're very perceptive, but you knowingly walk into danger."
"Yan Yan, not only is your mother-in-law frightening, but the man you're going to marry is even more frightening. He doesn't know how to cherish women at all, and he thinks he's doing you a favor by marrying him. Hehe, you'll only suffer if you marry into a family like that."
Yan Yan took a couple of big gulps of brown sugar water, then changed the subject and asked, "Xue Li, why isn't your husband home?"
Su Xueli said, "I went to a reunion with my comrades."
Yan Yan said "Oh," took out a bottle of Friendship brand face cream from her pocket and handed it to Su Xueli, excitedly saying, "Xueli, this is for you. I sold this; I've already gone to two markets and earned 18 yuan."
Su Xueli exclaimed, "Really? You're amazing, Yan Yan! You just did it right away!"
Yan Yan chuckled and said, "I can hardly believe it myself. I've actually started a business and can make money. My whole family is overjoyed. My younger brothers are all vying to go to the market with me to set up a stall."
Su Xueli smiled and said, "Okay, okay, then let them go with you. It'll be good to have some help. Also, you're so pretty, there are plenty of bad men at the market, you need a protector. By the way, tell me, what are you selling? It must be very busy and chaotic since you're new to this business, right?"
Yan Yan quickly finished her bowl of brown sugar water and enthusiastically shared it with her, "After listening to you that day, and with my uncle's support, I made up my mind to give it a try."
Without discussing it with my parents, I used my savings of over 30 yuan to buy a batch of face cream, shampoo, powder, and nail polish from my uncle, and then asked my younger brother to help me set up a stall at the market.
There weren't many vendors, so I could just grab any spot I wanted. I never expected that someone would ask the price as soon as I set everything up. My prices were a penny or two lower than in the stores, and everyone who asked ended up buying something. I was so busy! And, being my first time selling things, I hadn't prepared any change. My brother and I were sweating profusely in the dead of winter…”
"Oh my god, hahaha..." Su Xueli laughed so hard she bent over.
Yan Yan became more and more excited as she talked, and the two of them laughed in bursts.
Su Xueli said, "Yanyan, I've never seen you so happy before. It seems that money is the best way to nourish people."
Yan Yan said with bright eyes, "Of course! With money, I can buy whatever I want and do whatever I want. When I earned money, I bought my grandma a pair of reading glasses. She can even thread a needle with them now, and she's so happy!"
I bought my mother a new scarf. Her old scarf was the one she got when she married into the family; it was faded and faded, and she wouldn't wear it when visiting relatives because she thought it was shabby and would get cold. This new scarf made my mother so happy that she didn't sleep all night.
I bought my younger brother a bag of candy, and they were even happier than during the New Year…
Su Xueli asked quietly, "Yan Yan, what did you buy for yourself?"
Yan Yan was taken aback, then chuckled twice and said, "I lack nothing. I have elderly parents above me and a younger brother below me, so I have to take care of them. My grandma told my mother that girls should be like this, even when they go to their husband's family. They can't just think about themselves."
Su Xueli corrected her: "No, Yan Yan, you yourself are the most important."
