The next day, Song Chu first went to the mountain to cut the pig grass needed for the day, and then ran to pick a lot of tea fruits and threw them into the laboratory.
After finishing today's work ahead of schedule, she asked for leave from her uncle and borrowed his bicycle.
After returning, he filled two large bags with tea and fruits, carried three pieces of snake meat and some vegetables, and rode his bike to the county town.
After graduating from high school, Song Chu's third brother Song Jianye was pursued by a girl from a high-ranking official's family in the county town, and the two soon got married.
Song Jianye's father-in-law used his connections to arrange for him to teach at a junior high school in the county, and his wife worked in a supply and marketing cooperative.
He found a wife in the county town and stayed there. His father-in-law also provided him with a house. Her third brother is a Phoenix man.
As she recalls, her mother would often take her to beg for money so that her third brother and sister-in-law could buy food, cloth for clothes, etc.
Song Jianye paid more attention to his reputation and had been brainwashed by her mother before, so he was more biased towards her family. He would take the initiative to return good things and give them generously, which made the villagers praise him constantly, so he worked harder.
To his family, he is considered a filial son, but to his in-laws, he is a bit ungrateful.
Song Chu remembered that the oil press factory in the county town was a subordinate unit of the Grain Bureau, and one of her third sister-in-law's brothers worked there, so she wanted to ask for help by offering to send snake meat.
It was lunch time when she arrived at the county town, and Song Jianye and his wife were both there.
Seeing Song Chu standing at the door with two bags and a backpack on his back, Song Jianye was startled after opening the door, "Little sister, why are you here?"
His sister usually comes to visit him for no reason. Could it be that she is craving for cookies or wants to make clothes?
Song Chu walked in, put down the backpack and took out the vegetables and snake meat. "I went to the mountains yesterday and killed a big snake. I wanted to send you some meat to try. These vegetables are grown by mom."
Although all the land belongs to the village now, every family will leave a small piece of land for private use to grow some vegetables.
Song Jianye looked at the two large pieces of snake meat and a lot of cabbage and green vegetables, then raised his hand and touched his head. It seemed that he didn't have a fever and his eyes were not blurry?
Mrs. Song, who was sitting there, was also surprised. The sun rose from the west today? Song Chu actually sent vegetables and meat to her home.
Seeing the shocked expressions of the two, Song Chu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Was it the correct way to open it to eat and take it at the same time? "Chu Chu, the snake you killed is very big." Song Sansao came back to her senses, stood up and walked over to look at the snake meat in Song Chu's hand and said.
She had heard that this young girl had great strength and thought it was a lie, but now it seems to be true, otherwise how could she have killed the big snake.
Song Chu smiled and said, "It's okay."
"You're just being polite. Why did you send me such big chunks of meat?" Mrs. Song San took the meat from Song Chu and realized that she was not dreaming.
This piece weighs several kilograms.
Song Chu smiled and said, "Third brother and his wife are so kind to me and mom. In the past, we couldn't send them anything because we didn't have anything at home. Now that we have something good, we naturally have to think of you."
"Third sister-in-law, you can take a piece home and let your uncle and aunt taste it. This snake meat is relatively tender and tastes good."
The third sister-in-law is not very smart. Although she doesn't like her family, she is love-brained and easy to be coaxed. She will not object to anything her third brother does.
Song Jianye and Song Sansao felt comfortable hearing these words. It seemed that their previous kindness to Song Chu was not in vain. This girl still had some conscience.
When Song Jianye heard that his sister had brought a piece to his father-in-law's house, the smile on his face deepened. This was to save his face. "Do you have any more at home?"
"There are still some left, just eat them with confidence, third brother." Song Chu nodded.
Song San's wife Guo Chun looked at the two bags she placed on the ground curiously, "What are these?"
"I discovered tea trees when I was hunting snakes in the mountains. I read in a book that tea fruits can be used to extract oil, so I picked two bags to give it a try."
"A piece of the snake meat is also given to his family," she added.
Originally, when Song Chu asked her brother for help, Mrs. Song was a little resistant.
But after hearing everything, the smile on her face became much more sincere, "What's the big deal? I'll take you to their oil mill in a while."
The monthly supply of meat coupons in the city is limited, and her second brother's family is also short of meat. It would be a great honor to give them a piece of snake meat.
It also saves them from always complaining about her husband subsidizing the Song family.
When they have good things, they just send them to us. This shows that the Song family is not the poor relatives who only know how to eat and take things for free as the sisters-in-law say.
"Thank you, Third Sister-in-law." In Song Chu's memory, Third Sister-in-law Song liked to act pretentiously and didn't look down on rural people like them. Although she allowed them to take advantage of her, she often had a bad look on her face.
Mrs. Song’s smile is much more genuine now, which is actually quite normal.
If you were to encounter a relative who only wants to take things from you and never give them out, who would feel comfortable? It would be strange if their attitude could improve.
When people get along with each other, they should not always take advantage of each other, otherwise even blood relatives may not get along for long and conflicts may arise.
Her third brother is a Phoenix man. His family often comes to ask for money, which makes him lose face in Yue family.
Mrs. Song laughed out loud, "We are a family, why should we be so polite?"
She was not a petty person, but she really looked down on the behavior of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law. In addition, her family thought that she had married poorly. She did not say anything about her mother-in-law's family, but she was indeed very resistant and disgusted in her heart.
I don’t know why, but now I feel that Song Chu, this little aunt, is much more pleasing to the eye than before.
Song Jianye was happy, "Little sister, you haven't eaten yet, come and eat with us."
In the past, Tang Feng and her daughter would always come at mealtimes, mainly to get a free meal.
Song Chu also calculated the time to come, but it was because of this time that the two of them were at home.
"Yes, I happened to cook a lot of food today. Come over and eat with us, little sister." Mrs. Song said with rare enthusiasm.
Song Chu did not refuse, "Okay."
Song Jianye and his wife have been married for more than a year and they don't have any children yet. They both have salaries and live a good life.
We had white rice, two dishes and a soup. The vegetables were stir-fried but they didn't use much oil, so it tasted good.
After dinner, Song Sansao asked Song Chu to put the piece of snake meat in a backpack, cover it with a layer of vegetables, and then took her to the grain and oil processing factory.
Her second brother is a manager in the processing plant and has his own office.
At this time, Guo Dong was drinking tea and reading newspapers in the office. When he saw his sister bringing Song Chu over, he couldn't help but frowned.
He recognized Song Chu at a glance. Although he had only seen her once at his sister's wedding, she was easy to remember because of her outstanding appearance.
Because the Song family has been asking for money frequently in the past two years, and his brother-in-law is a confused person who only knows how to subsidize the family, so he doesn't like the Song family very much.
