Chapter 93 Ling Xiu
He Jinyan, who lives next door, has been acting like a madman with red eyes when she sees her these past two days.
I didn’t prepare any food when I should have, so I guess I didn’t buy anything.
But no matter how angry she was, she didn't dare to go into the house, open the refrigerator and rob.
Song Rui ignored her and she had no choice.
Song Rui thought that this New Year would pass peacefully, but she didn't expect that someone would come to visit her on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month.
The only girl in the Ling family is back.
She came to the door with two cans of food, a bottle of malted milk, and her child.
Ling Xiu is one year older than Ling Ye. She got married early and her daughter is already nine years old.
Her husband is a teacher at Fengcheng No. 3 Middle School, his name is Cui Mingzhi.
Not only did he not come back with her this time, he also rarely went back to her parents' home with Ling Xiu in the past.
Like a mysterious dragon that can't be found from head to tail, every time Ling Xiu was mentioned, he said he was busy.
As a teacher, you are busy during weekdays, during winter and summer vacations, and during the Chinese New Year.
No one said it, but everyone knew that the Cui family looked down on the Ling family.
Cui Mingzhi married Ling Xiu because she was beautiful.
But beauty doesn't last forever.
Later, Song Rui heard about Cui Mingzhi's romantic affairs more than once.
In the end, he was expelled from school because of this incident.
She, a former daughter-in-law who left the Ling family, knew all this, so how could Ling Xiu not know?
But until later on, they never divorced and continued to live like that.
Once in the vegetable market, Song Rui met Ling Xiu.
Nan Nan was in junior high school at that time, so it was ten years later.
At that time, Ling Xiu no longer looked like her youth.
Numb, old, tired, like a dead tree that has been drained of water.
While they were talking, she kept lamenting how difficult it was for Song Rui, a divorced woman.
How can we live without a complete family?
Everyone has their own ideas.
Song Rui couldn't understand, but she didn't want to interfere.
No one can change Ling Xiu's willingness.
So even after being reborn, Song Rui had no intention of meddling in other people's affairs.
It’s better to stay away from it.
Song Rui wasn't the only one who wanted to stay away.
As soon as Ling Xiu brought the child in, He Jinyan's expression changed immediately.
Every time Ling Xiu came back, he never left empty-handed.
It’s Chinese New Year, so it’s impossible for me to leave empty-handed.
The pitiful little New Year's goods she prepared were not prepared for her!
He Jinyan's alarm bells rang loudly, and she went to meet Ling Xiu and said, "It's my second sister who's back. It's Chinese New Year, why did she come back before the New Year? Isn't your family busy?"
The displeasure in her tone was too obvious.
Ling Xiu lowered her head embarrassedly, but still stuffed the thing in her hand into He Jinyan's.
"No, I'm not busy. I just came back to take a look."
Is that a look?
He Jinyan glared at her fiercely.
Isn't it obvious that he's asking for something?
He Jinyan vowed to guard her two pig's trotters and four small crucian carps to the death.
"Sister, we mentioned you the other day. We were out of money at home and wanted to borrow some from you."
Ling Xiu looked up blankly, "No money? Something happened to the third brother?"
He Jinyan became even angrier when she mentioned this.
What kind of family did you marry into?
The second son said that she married well, but she always came home to beg for money.
The third brother lived a very wealthy life, but he never brought any money home.
But they are bringing trouble to their boss's family, right?
"What could possibly happen to them? They are living a good life. Do you smell this fragrance? It's coming from their house. It has nothing to do with us. We are barely able to make ends meet these days and can't even afford New Year's groceries. Sister, do you have any spare money? Lend me some..."
"What are you talking about, old man?"
Seeing that He Jinyan had blocked someone in the yard and was talking, Ling Jianguo hurried out to interrupt.
I told you not to borrow money from Ling Xiu, why don’t you listen?
"The second one is back, come in quickly."
Ling Xiu looked at He Jinyan guiltily, but still took the child and walked around her into the house.
He Jinyan stomped her feet in anger.
Thinking that Ling Xiu would have to take the things away soon, she simply gritted her teeth and went into the kitchen.
Ling Xiu's daughter is called Cui Niannian. She looks like Ling Xiu, pretty and delicate, but her temperament is not like hers, but more like her father.
Sitting on the edge of the kang, her little face was proud and her eyes were lowered in dissatisfaction.
Xu Chunying asked her what was wrong, and Cui Niannian rolled her eyes and said, "Nothing serious, it's just that my aunt doesn't seem to like us coming."
Ling Jianguo quickly said, "Don't bother with your aunt, this is your grandma and grandpa's home, and grandpa and grandpa like you to come."
Ling Xiu sat on the kang and saw that the room was not as nice as usual. There was not even a piece of fruit on the kang table. She lowered her head in embarrassment.
She really came here to take advantage of the situation.
Before getting married, she worked as a cashier in a state-owned bathhouse.
But after they got married, Cui Mingzhi thought her job was not decent and asked her to quit.
At the beginning, it was okay relying on Cui Mingzhi's salary.
But as children grow older, there are more and more places to spend money, and prices are getting higher and higher.
Those salaries are not enough.
Ling Xiu was in charge of the household accounts and didn't dare tell Cui Mingzhi that there was not enough money, for fear that he would be angry.
I can only go back to my parents' home occasionally.
I took the things given by Cui Mingzhi's unit and exchanged them for some good things to take back.
Cui Mingzhi also knew this, so he was never willing to come.
Ling Xiu knew that he was a scholar and had the noble character of a scholar, so he never forced him.
Originally, she had no burden about going home.
My third brother earns a lot, so our family lives a good life.
She doesn't need this little thing.
And every time she came, she would advise her parents to be nicer to my third brother's family.
It can be considered as giving back.
But now, the situation at home has changed.
"Mom, I just heard from my sister-in-law that my third brother stopped giving money? Did they split up the family?"
Xu Chunying sighed, "No, but it will be soon. He was instigated by that vixen. He doesn't give me a penny as a mother. His heart is full of his little family. Alas, I have raised this son in vain."
Ling Xiu didn't expect the family to be in this situation.
"Mom, I think my sister-in-law is quite honest. Did you have a fight? How about I persuade her for you? Nian Nian, go and call my aunt."
Cui Niannian stood up impatiently and pushed the door open to go out.
Song Rui had just finished frying the crispy pork and had just washed her hands in the sink after she had caught the little rat that stole the crispy pork.
The door of the outer room was still emitting smoke. Cui Niannian came over without opening her eyes or looking up or shouting, "My mother asked you to come over."
After saying this, she turned and left without waiting for Song Rui to answer.
Song Rui didn't know that she was still a child who was ordered around.
She told Nan Nan, "Go, tell them that your mother won't go."
Nan Nan uttered an "ah".
The furry red cloak rushed out like a gust of wind.
She ran to the main house and said in a clear voice, "My mother said she's not coming."
"You little girl, do you have any manners? Don't you know how to call someone?"
Nan Nan tilted her head, "My cousin didn't call anyone, why didn't you tell her?"
Xu Chunying glanced at Cui Niannian and said nothing.
"You're not being fair at all, and I won't call you, humph!"
After Nan Nan finished speaking, she turned around and walked away, shaking her braid.
Ling Xiu was a little embarrassed and glared at Cui Nian Nian, "Is this what I usually teach you? You don't even call me aunt? If you do this again, don't go out with me next time!"
Cui Niannian was said in front of so many people, and she muttered with some embarrassment, "What's the big deal? I don't even like coming to such a crappy place."
She said and ran out.
Ling Xiaodan, who had been sitting in the corner, looked at him, rolled his eyes, and ran out as well.
