Chapter 171: Walk slowly! God of Wealth
The relatives who came to visit the old house included not only Liu Sanjin's family, but also Lu Lanhua and Lu Miaomiao. Lu Lanhua, in particular, felt very uncomfortable in the old house. She was anxious to find Shen Meng, but Liu Sanjin was busy showing off his two daughters, his youngest son, and his youngest daughter-in-law, which made it difficult for her to get away.
After everyone had finally arrived and she had some free time, she quickly took the gifts she had brought and went to Shen Meng's house.
Lu Mingyang and several children spread out their hands to show off their achievements. Not bad. They played around, rolled around and said auspicious words. They finally got some pocket money, and it was not a small amount. Two cents each, which was the best. For ordinary families, giving even a cent would make the children very happy. "Okay
, keep this money. When you go to the county town with your mother, you can decide what to buy. Put it away and don't carry it with you, otherwise your father will ruin your clothes when he doesn't take it out of his pocket!"
"Okay, thank you, mother. I'll save this money and buy you some baked cakes when we go to the county town."
"I'll buy you some meat."
"I'll save it too. I'll buy you a silk scarf, a very beautiful one, rose-red, so bright."
Shen Meng: "..."
Thank you, my big son, but isn't the rose-red color a little too bright? There's something wrong with your aesthetic sense, my son.
While the mother and the others were enjoying themselves, Lu Lanhua rushed to the door carrying canned food, pork, malt milk and peach candies.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, great joy, great joy, oh, look at me, look at me, with such a loud voice, where is my brother?"
"He's cooking in the kitchen. The children and I are starving, and he hasn't finished cooking yet. It's really infuriating."
Lu Lanhua's expression froze for a moment. Although she and Lu Zhenping didn't have much affection for each other, he was still her elder brother. Being ordered around and despised like this, she also felt angry in her heart, but she gritted her teeth and suppressed it.
It's okay, anyway, when she gets the job of ticket seller, she will definitely make Shen Meng look bad.
"Sister-in-law, New Year's Day is coming soon. I brought some things for you and the children. I specially asked someone to cut this meat this morning. It weighs two pounds and is fat and shiny, and can produce a lot of oil! These are snacks for the children. Mingyang, Mingliang, Mingfang, and Xiaokai, come and try them. Aunt bought them at the supply and marketing cooperative. They are delicious."
"Thank you, aunt. You are so nice."
Shen Meng's face darkened and he glared at the children and said, "Eat, eat, eat. All you know is to eat. Take it back to your room and eat. Your aunt and I still have something to say!"
Mingyang grabbed the peach cakes and candies that Shen Meng had stuffed into his hand, and turned around and left with his younger brother and sister. His mother was about to start acting again.
"Thank you, Lanhua, you debt collector. This meat is really good. I'll ask your elder brother to cook it for you tonight. Come on, let's go inside and talk. I haven't seen you for a long time. I wanted to ask you, have you settled that matter?"
Lu Lanhua's eyes lit up. This was what she came here to talk about. It really touched her heart.
The two of them entered the house stealthily. Lu Lanhua folded her hands and looked around the house carefully. It was clean and tidy. There were some skin care products, vanishing cream, goose egg powder, eyebrow pencil, and osmanthus perfume on the table. She couldn't take her eyes off them.
No wonder they said life was hard at home. She, a daughter-in-law in the city, had never been so extravagant. Shen Meng, a peasant, would enjoy it.
"Sister-in-law, this vanishing cream is from the Friendship brand. It's very hard to get. Where did you get it?"
"Put it down quickly. I got this bottle with great difficulty and I can't bear to use it. Put it away. Haha, don't be angry, Lanhua. I'm just having a hard time. So, if you want it, wait until I sell my job and I'll... give you this half-used bottle of vanishing cream. How about that?"
Lu Lanhua pouted. If she had a stable job, she could buy all kinds of good things. Why would she need something that Shen Meng had used? Tsk!
"Speaking of the job of ticket seller, sister-in-law, you don't know how much I have spent talking and how many people I have found to take over. It took me several days of hard work before someone was willing to pay 850 yuan for this job. Here's the money, sister-in-law, you hurry up and give me the job certificate."
Shen Meng's face froze, and he stuttered when he spoke. He didn't dare to look up at Lu Lanhua. The latter saw it and was shocked.
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean, say something?"
Lu Lanhua was also very nervous. Didn't Shen Meng have been fooled by her and was willing to sell the job before? Now he was hesitating. Could it be that someone knew about it and pointed it out to her? But didn't she just ask about it?
“Lanhua, I, I told you not to be angry. When your elder brother and I were sleeping on the kang, I accidentally let it slip that your elder brother would give in to me in everything except this matter. He said that if I dared to sell my job as a ticket seller, he would divorce me. How dare I do that? Your elder brother said that I am handsome and I get an allowance every month. I am not stupid. I don’t want a divorce!”
Lu Lanhua: “........”
You told me everything while we were sleeping on the kang. Why do I want to slap you in the cunt so much!!!
"How can that be? I've already made an agreement with them, and I've borrowed the money... no, I've brought the money with me. If you don't sell it, how am I going to explain to them?"
The money included not only her private savings, her children's annual allowance, and family savings, but also some borrowed money, all of which she had kept secret from her husband. If this didn't work out, wouldn't all her work be in vain?
"Don't worry, Lanhua, don't worry. Although I can't sell the salesperson job, I have a job quota in a textile factory. I got this job by threatening your eldest brother to jump into the river. Here's the notice from the textile factory. I'll ask you for fifty, no, one hundred yuan less, how about that, Lanhua? Do you think this notice is okay?"
Lu Lanhua was originally very angry, but she didn't expect such a sudden turn of events. Although the job in the textile factory was not as good as that in the bus company, the salary was not low. She cleared her throat.
"In that case, then okay, I'll hand over the money and the notice, and we're even now, sister-in-law. That's why I like to come home!" "
I'm sorry, sorry, Lanhua, thank you. This Friendship brand vanishing cream is for you. You are well-informed in the city. When I go to work in the city, you have to take care of me!"
"That's for sure."
Lu Lanhua spent 750 yuan to buy a job. Think about those people in the city. If they want a job, they may have to spend two or three thousand yuan and may not be able to buy it. She actually got it at such a small price. It makes her laugh even in her dreams.
“Lanhua, please read carefully. This notice is now handed to you. If you are ok, go back quickly, or your elder brother will see it and scold me. This guy is usually easy to talk to, but when it comes to face, he becomes very stubborn and irritating. I don’t even want him to sleep in bed.”
Lu Lanhua: “.......”
You guys are going to sleep to death!!!
"There is nothing wrong with this notice. It has the stamp of the textile factory on it. I have seen this, sister-in-law. I will go back now."
Shen Meng looked at her with a smile. "Go slowly, God of Wealth. Laugh as hard as you can now. You will cry someday!
" In the old courtyard, Wu Xianglan swept the rooms inside and outside with a broom. After coming out of Zhou Jiaojiao's room, she quickly hid the things in her trouser crotch. Sister-in-law was right. Who could find the things in her trouser crotch?
She thought to herself that she was stupid. Why didn't she think of taking advantage of the time when there were many people at home? If it wasn't for the sister-in-law's unconscious remark, she might have really made a move!
