Chapter 157: How can she be so lucky
? After dinner, the family hadn’t returned home yet. They saw Wu Xianglan wandering around the door. After she saw Shen Meng, she ran over in a hurry.
“Brother, sister-in-law, where have you been? I’ve been looking for you for a long time and couldn’t find you. Why aren’t you at home for dinner in the middle of the day?”
“Oh, the village chief and the party secretary insisted on inviting our family to dinner today. Your brother and I refused several times but couldn’t get away, so we had to go.”
Wu Xianglan: “........”
It sounded a bit like she was showing off!!!
"Let's not talk about this for now. Brother and sister-in-law, you don't know that Jiahe went to the county town today. Mother said that it's New Year's Day, so she wants my elder sister-in-law and younger sister-in-law to come back. It's not me who says that, but mother must have other things to do. My elder sister-in-law and younger sister-in-law basically don't go home unless they have something to do. I don't know what trouble they will make when they come back. I think they will definitely frame my sister-
in-law. You should keep this in mind!" Wu Xianglan kept her eyes on Shen Meng when she said this. She heard that on the day of grain distribution, Mingfang took a piece of meat to Daya's house. It didn't make sense for her to be so nice to others, but treat her, her good sister-in-law, differently.
Shen Meng raised her eyebrows. No matter whether the family split up, Lu Zhenping came back, or she and Zhou Jiaojiao got stable jobs, the two sisters-in-law never came back. This would never have happened in the past.
Lu Zhenping would send them an allowance every month. Although they didn't come back often, they would come back every month. The reason for this was naturally the little money in Shen Meng's hands.
Regardless of whether they came back or not, Wu Xianglan came to report the news, which meant that she had this chess piece in her hands!
Shen Meng pushed Lu Mingkai towards Lu Zhenping and smiled as she held Wu Xianglan's hand.
"So, I knew that Xianglan, who is beautiful and kind-hearted, was thinking of me in her heart. Here, this is the candy that the director of the textile factory sent last time. It's White Rabbit milk candy, bought in Shanghai. Our supply and marketing cooperative doesn't sell this kind of candy. It's in an iron box. Take it and give it to Yongqiang and Yongli to sweeten their lips. If something happens in the future, your sister-in-law will count on you!"
Wu Xianglan's face turned red because of being coaxed. She raised her chin arrogantly and reached out to take all the candies in Shen Meng's hand.
“Hey, sister-in-law, we are sisters, why do you have to be so polite? In the future, just tell me if you have any problems. What else can I not tell you? Don’t do this next time, or I will be angry.”
Shen Meng: “.......”
You took everything without being polite, and almost took my ring away. I didn’t expect you to be so shameless!!!
After returning home, Mingyang, Mingliang and Mingfang were worried, and next to them was the heartless Lu Mingkai with a grin.
"Brother, what should we do? The eldest and the youngest aunts are coming. They like to say bad things to mother. Mother doesn't like them, and I don't like them either. Every time they come to mother, they have to coax things from her. It's the worst."
"We have separated the family. It's useless for them to come."
Mingliang muttered, "But father is here. They are his sisters. If they really cry and ask for things, can father not give them."
"No."
In the room, Lu Zhenping held Shen Meng's hand and said coldly.
"Really?"
Lu Zhenping nodded. He didn't have much affection for his two sisters. He didn't get along with them much when he was at home. Besides, now that the family has separated, the two sisters are married. Even if they want things or money, they don't ask him, but ask his parents.
"Normally, they should take the initiative to visit relatives during the New Year, but you see, they haven't come back since the eighth day of the eighth month. Maybe something has happened."
"They just don't dare to come."
Shen Meng thought about it and understood what he meant. The original owner was fooled by the Lu family before, and they could benefit from it, but whether it was a division or a quarrel with the Lu family, they didn't want to get involved. Not long after, Lu Zhenping came back. They were worried that the benefits they had received from the original owner would make Lu Zhenping angry, so they simply didn't come back.
Lu Miaomiao and Lu Lanhua went to the old Lu's house reluctantly. They had agreed on some things long ago, and they only needed to come once before the New Year. They didn't expect Lu Jiahe to come to the door and call them.
"Mom and Dad, this is the New Year gift that our old Qiao and I brought for you. We haven't been home for a while. Are you okay?"
"Look at what elder sister said. Now that elder brother is back, mom and dad have been looking forward to it day and night. They are very happy and must be in good health. Mom and dad, these are the things we brought. This egg cake was specially bought by me for the supply and marketing cooperative. It was in great demand during the New Year and I almost missed it."
Liu Sanjin looked at the two girls who not only came, but also brought large and small bags to see her and miss her. Thinking of the grievances she had suffered these days, her eyes reddened and tears fell.
"Miaomiao, Lanhua, my dear girls, mother has missed you so much these days. The old family has split up, and your eldest brother has been influenced by the pillow talk every day and mother almost doesn't recognize him anymore. He doesn't listen at all. In the past, your eldest brother always listened to you. Now you must talk to your eldest brother well. I am his mother, and mother and son are the closest. He can't be at odds with mother, right?"
Zhou Jiaojiao stroked her belly gently and wiped Liu Sanjin's tears with a handkerchief.
"Don't be sad, mom. If Sister Miaomiao and Sister Lanhua had said something in the past, my brother and sister-in-law would have listened to them. Their sisters were doing it for their own good. But now my sister-in-law is going to work as a ticket seller at the bus company. Who else would want such a popular job? Hey~"
"What? What did you say? Shen Meng is going to work at the bus company. When did this happen?"
Zhou Jiaojiao sighed and explained everything in detail. She also mentioned the big shot that Lu Zhenping knew.
Lu Miaomiao and Lu Lanhua opened their mouths in surprise.
"How can she be so lucky? She's a ticket seller! Even people with connections in the city can't get such a good job. How could she have such shitty luck?"
"Mom and Dad, my elder sister and I will think about this carefully. We'll go to my eldest brother's house at noon to ask. We are brothers and sisters, the closest people. Even if good things happen, they will be for our family. My eldest sister-in-law is just a country woman. I'm afraid she doesn't even know what one plus one equals. How can she go to work? It would be bad if she embarrasses my eldest brother."
Wu Xianglan was also sitting nearby. After hearing Zhou Jiaojiao say this to Lu Miaomiao and Lu Lanhua, she immediately moved her radar. It was obvious that the fourth son's wife wanted Lu Miaomiao and Lu Lanhua to go and snatch my eldest sister-in-law's job.
She is smart now, and is no longer the Wu Xianglan of the past. She can hear the bad words said by the fourth daughter-in-law.
