"Zhentang, how do you two take care of Xiaoli? Look at her, she's lost weight in just one day."
"ah?"
Tian Yuzhu and Shi Zhentang looked at each other.
Shi De didn't look like he was here to see his daughter, but rather like he was here to have a quarrel with the young couple.
In fact, Shi Xiaoli was fine at all. She ate the most when the meal was delivered that time, and it was only one day ago.
Shi Zhentang couldn't stand it any longer: "Dad, stop talking nonsense. We took good care of Xiaoli, and now she..."
"Anyway, I think she's lost weight." Shi De waved his hand and said, "From now on, I don't need you. She's my daughter, I'll take care of her myself."
"Are you sure this is really for Xiaoli's own good?" Shi Zhentang's temper gradually rose and his tone became colder.
"Of course it's for her own good, you're just an ungrateful person like you."
"Who is an ungrateful person if you say that again?" Lu Huanying's voice was heard outside the door. The old lady heard Chengcheng say that his grandfather had returned to the old house, so she came to check on him out of worry. Who would have thought that she would hear such a sentence.
The old man was so angry that his eyes turned black. He trotted a few steps, picked up the broom and hit Shi De: "You have no idea how Zhentang treats you, and how Yang Dahua treated him all these years. It was Yang who asked for death and ended up in jail, and you blame it on Zhentang.
What the hell are you? My daughter was so blind to fall for a thing like you. You are such a piece of shit, such a piece of shit..."
"Grandma, forget it." Shi Zhentang quickly grabbed the old lady.
He didn't care at all about Shi De who was beaten and raised his hands to protect his head. He was just worried that the old lady would be too excited and it would be bad for her health.
Tian Yuzhu was also angry, but she controlled her emotions: "Grandma, don't be angry, God is watching us, let's ignore it."
"Yes, yes, that's your character. You are a bunch of bastards. Get out of here. No one is allowed to step into this old courtyard again." Shi De recovered and started cursing.
"Okay, from now on, our new hospital has nothing to do with you. Come on, Zhentang Yuzhu, let's go back and live our own lives. Let's not get involved in this mess. Shi Xiaoli is his daughter, and it's up to him to decide whether to live or die. Let's go."
The old lady was extremely angry.
No matter how Shi De treated her, she could endure his anger for a while, but when it came to Shi Zhentang, she would not agree.
Seeing that the old lady was very emotional, Shi Zhentang and Tian Yuzhu exchanged glances, and could only tuck in the quilt and obediently follow the old lady back to the new courtyard.
After returning home, the old lady started to list all the wrong things Shi De had done over the years.
Tian Yuzhu took the opportunity to go out for a drink of water to call Cheng Cheng over and asked him to go to the field and call Shi Weiqiang back.
At the moment, it is most reasonable for Shi Weiqiang to intervene in this matter, after all, he is from the old hospital.
Su Zhen, who had been busy in the kitchen, heard what the old lady said and probably understood what was going on. She immediately became angry: "Yuzhu, be obedient. We will not care about this matter anymore."
Tian Yuzhu knew that these were just words spoken in anger by her and the old lady. They were soft-hearted, and no matter how much they hated Shi De, they still cared about Shi Xiaoli's life or death.
But she agreed temporarily: "Okay, sister-in-law, I will listen to grandma anyway. Grandma's words are like an imperial decree to me."
This sentence made the old lady laugh: "You little girl!"
"Grandma, don't be angry anymore!" Tian Yuzhu sat down next to the old lady and rubbed her back: "Let's calm down. It's not worth it."
Shi Zhentang also smiled: "Grandma, don't be angry, your health is more important."
Lu Huanying sighed: "I just feel sorry for you..."
"Okay, okay, grandma, let's talk about something happy." Tian Yuzhu cleverly changed the subject: "I found a job for my sister-in-law. If it can be done in the long run, she won't have to work hard in the fields anymore. The family needs people anyway, so let her take care of you and the kids at home while doing handicrafts and making money."
"What, is there such a good thing?"
When Su Zhen heard that she could make money at home, her eyes lit up.
The old lady's mood brightened up: "What is that for, Yuzhu?"
"Making clothes."
Tian Yuzhu recounted all the agreements she had made with the female educated youth.
She did some calculations again. "They want ordinary cotton material, which is cheaper on the black market. It won't cost them more than 40 yuan in total. That means we can make 60 or 70 yuan on 10 pieces of clothing."
"Sixty-seven dollars?"
Oh my goodness, Su Zhen is already getting excited: "Yuzhu, when can I learn from you?"
Even the old lady said, "It just so happens that I have nothing to do every day. Apart from anything else, I can be a helper with needlework. I will help Ah Zhen when the time comes."
Tian Yuzhu then told her sister everything she wanted her to learn from her.
In fact, starting a clothing business was not originally in her plan. It was only when she was in the military district that she saw that the wives of the soldiers liked the styles she designed, so she came up with the idea in this direction.
Moreover, the clothing market has promising prospects, so it is definitely worth a try.
Now if they want to develop a business in their hometown, it is impossible for Su Zhen and the old lady to accomplish it alone. It is just right to bring Tian Ying along and give her a way to make a living, which is the best of both worlds.
After she finished speaking, the old lady and Su Zhen both expressed their welcome to Tian Ying's joining.
In the old lady's words, "Your sister has also suffered a lot. It would be great if she could learn it. In the future, Ah Zhen and she can work together. We will all be family and trust each other. By the way, Yuzhu, we won't be accused of speculation and profiteering by doing this, right?"
Having said that, the old lady was still a little worried.
Tian Yuzhu explained to them, "It's okay. After all, we're just making clothes for the educated female youth. It's hard to say we're selling clothes. Besides, some cities have turned a blind eye to this and don't care about speculation at all."
Shi Zhentang could testify: "I did see this phenomenon when I passed through some major cities on the road, and the crackdown wasn't strict enough."
"That's great, let's get started as soon as possible!"
The old lady thought that if they could earn some money, Shi Zhentang would no longer have to send his salary home.
In a few months, the couple will welcome two babies, and the family's financial burden will be even heavier. At that time, they, as the ones back home, must not hold them back.
Tian Yuzhu naturally hopes to get things up and running quickly. Of course, her most important goal is to teach them before the holidays.
Meanwhile, Cheng Cheng, the clever little boy, ran to the fields and whispered to Shi Weiqiang, "Third Uncle, Grandpa went back to the old house and kicked out Second Uncle and Second Aunt, saying they can't take care of my aunt. Second Aunt asked me to tell you to go back quickly."
When Shi Weiqiang heard this, he was so angry that the veins on his forehead throbbed.
He only did it because of his father's seniority, otherwise he would have given the old man a slap in the face long ago.
It's not enough to live a peaceful life day by day, but you have to make some trouble.
Shi Weiqiang picked up the hoe with a bitter face and hurriedly followed Cheng Cheng home.
