Jiang Yuci's heart was filled with resentment. He hated that he was born in the countryside and that his parents were farmers.
His family also lived in the commune, and his parents were both workers. He could take over his parents' jobs after graduation, so he was not jealous of the glamorous children of cadres in the school.
"It's all your father's fault! He had the money in his hand but refused to spend it. You are suffering now."
Wang Juhua spilled all the family's wealth. Seeing the resentful look from his son, Jiang Changyi could only say helplessly, "I originally had 200 yuan in my hand. It was sent from Haicheng by Jiang Li's mother's family. It was only sent once.
I originally wanted to wait until you graduated and find you a job in the commune. Later, I gave Jiang Li a dowry of thirty dollars and thought of asking Qi Shaoqiang to find you a job.
I didn’t expect that the damn girl would be so disloyal and take the money and then turn her back on us.”
Jiang Changyi was filled with resentment. When had he ever been fooled like this before? He must give this job to Qi Shaoqiang, otherwise he would have no chance of success.
Jiang Changyi gave his son a few dollars and said, "You can rest at home for two days with these. I will let you go to work in town in two days."
Jiang Yuci's expression looked better now. He took the money and went out.
"Have you ever been to Hongmei?"
Jiang Changyi asked Wang Juhua, Wang Juhua just now thought of this daughter whom she had long forgotten, in her opinion, her daughter would belong to someone else's family after she got married.
"Why go see her? Am I not embarrassed enough?"
Jiang Changyi thought further ahead. Before Jiang Li got married, she had already torn her apart. Even if he went there now, he might not be able to enter the Qi family.
But it's different if you go there under the pretext of seeing Jiang Hongmei, which makes sense anyway.
"Go to the Zhuang family tomorrow to see Hongmei. It's not right for a married woman to not come back home."
Wang Juhua complained, but she was still a little concerned in her heart, so she agreed.
Here Wang Juhua set out from home, and over there Jiang Li had already entered the city to shop at the cosmetics display cabinet on the first floor of the department store. Two bottles of Friendship brand vanishing cream, please.
Linglan Rouge can be used as both blush and eye shadow. Yongfang Pearl Cream can cover blemishes and brighten the skin, which is equivalent to foundation. Lotus Pressed Cake, please give me one.
Violet's agarwood powder, musk powder. Xiafei's whitening facial cleanser, Lingzhi milk.
껙Hong is a joint venture between 꿗 and foreign companies, and Jiang Li chose a tomato red color that was perfect.
I also bought a pair of Smee eyebrow pencil and a box of matches.
Jiang Li was happy when she made the selection, but she felt bad when she paid the bill. She spent thirty-three thousand sixty cents. Fortunately, she also saved nearly two hundred yuan by selling WeChat Moments during this period.
Add to that the 45 that Qin Xiaoting gives her every month, and she is now a wealthy woman who has made her fortune on her own.
After shopping, Jiang Li went to Shuping and bought some things to practice makeup with Qin Xiaoting as she had agreed with her.
Along the way, the team members greeted people enthusiastically.
Jiang Li went to Li Chunlan's house first. The Li family had completely changed. The newly built wall was high, enclosing the two east rooms where Jiang Li originally lived, and two mud houses were built next to the original tile house.
The yard has doubled in size, and pumpkin seeds and glisten seeds have been scattered along the corners, with small flowers now blooming.
The yard was quiet. Mai Miao was sitting obediently on the bench writing. Jiang Li picked up Mai Miao and rubbed him, making him giggle.
Li Chunlan came in with a basket of vegetables. When she saw Jiang Li, she was surprised and said, "You're here. Why didn't you say anything? I'm in my private plot behind. Come to my house for lunch. The team got a grass carp yesterday."
Jiang Li hadn't opened her mouth yet, and Zhu Xia held her stomach and groaned, "There are so many mouths to feed at home, why don't you give the meat to outsiders."
Li Chunlan pinched her waist, "Sister-in-law, please explain clearly, what do you mean by outsider? Didn't you eat the meat that Li Zi brought back last time? Didn't you live in the newly built house?
You took advantage of someone and then said that Li Zi was an outsider. That doesn't make sense."
Zhu Xia stared with her eyes wide open, unable to utter a word. She only managed to grab the sweaty Niu and scold him twice.
She was quite well behaved these days. A few days ago, she made trouble and moved into the two blue brick houses, and was severely scolded by her mother-in-law, Li Jinbu.
She had made a fuss and threatened to go back to her parents' home, but no one paid any attention to her. Now she could finally vent her anger.
Li Chunlan pulled him into the house and said, "Your two rooms before, one is now occupied by me, Mai Miao, and the other is occupied by my third brother."
"The other two are reserved for my second brother. He is planning to find a wife."
Jiang Li followed Li Chunlan around the room. The furnishings in the room were basically unchanged, except for some children's things. Li Chunlan cleaned it thoroughly.
The two of them sat close to each other by the window, and Li Chunlan whispered, "Li Zi, that guy is married."
Jiang Li was very surprised, "Chang Jinguang? Who is he married to?"
"Ding Wenyu, the niece of Accountant Ding, is now our accountant."
Li Chunlan looked lonely, and Jiang Li held her hand.
"I didn't tell you this, but he came to see me once and said he liked me and wanted to marry me."
"I feel really disgusted that the person I like is actually such a person. He is obviously not the one I like, but he pretends not to be the one and confesses his love to someone else."
In order to comfort Li Chunlan, Jiang Li took out her cosmetics and put on makeup for Li Chunlan.
Li Chunlan's face shape is somewhat similar to that of Wang Jing, whom she married, both of them have round apple faces, but Li Chunlan's complexion is healthier.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Li Chunlan could hardly believe her eyes. Her almond-shaped eyes were watery and full of energy, and her lips were outlined with full lines and filled with bright red.
Her hair was tied into two braids and tied with a ribbon to hang behind her ears. Her bangs were slightly curled. Jiang Li picked out a suitable dress from her closet and urged her to change into it.
Li Chunlan was shy, but the result surprised Jiang Li. She was wearing a green lapel shirt, fitted black pants, and a pair of lace-up shoes. She looked very excited.
"Lizi, do I look good like this? Is it too much?"
Jiang Li nodded vigorously, "It looks good. Come on, I'll take you for a walk."
Sure enough, when she went out, she attracted a lot of people's attention. Several girls who were good friends with Li Chunlan kept asking her how she dressed.
"How could I do these? Li Zi did it for me." Li Chunlan was a little nervous at first, but she calmed down later.
