Chapter 70: I have no face to live
Shen Meng talked to everyone with a wronged face, "In the early years, I wanted to buy a bicycle, but Lu Zhenping was not at home. The Lu family is so big that we often need to spend money. We didn't split up, and any money we had was borrowed. We are all family, so I can't ask people to write IOUs. I have money in my hand, and I can't keep it. I'm afraid that if I don't do well, I will be hated. After finally splitting up, I thought that the money and industrial tickets I saved were finally enough, and I asked It was only with the help of Lu Zhenping's comrades that she bought a bicycle. Sister Lianhua, you know that our production team is so far away from the primary school in the commune. When it is cloudy and rainy, the road is full of water. It is so difficult for the children to go to school. I just want the children to suffer less. Who did I offend to let them do this to me and the children? "
She originally planned not to do this, but things have developed to this point. If she doesn't use it, the people who are eyeing her bicycle will still have the intention.
Daqing has been promoted to the fourth grade this year, and Guo Xiuqin's family also has children in school. This is the dirt road in the countryside. It was okay in the early years. In recent years, some production teams have made money and bought tractors.
The road is often pressed, and deep gullies appear.
When it rains or snows, water and snow accumulate, and the muddy ground is impossible to walk on. It is common for children to slip and fall on the way to school, and get covered in mud.
"Of course, you have three children to go to school. If you don't take them home quickly when it rains, they will get sick from the cold, especially now that the weather is getting colder."
"She dared to ask for such an expensive thing, which shows that this is her habit of asking for things. She thinks that if she gets something good, it will fall into her hands."
"Yes, you weren't there, but didn't you see her righteous look? She also told Mingyang and Mingfang not to act like children, saying that Lu Jiaxuan's work in the commune was a serious matter. Oh, I was so angry when I heard that."
Zhu Juying was really furious. Her daughter-in-law was not a good person. Every time she asked her for something, she was righteous, as if she was born to owe her something. If she was unwilling to give it, she would bring up the child and say that she gave birth to a grandson for the Lu family.
She gave the grandson everything she should give, and she felt sorry for the grandson, but with such a small family background, the whole family had to eat, and they couldn't all be close to you, God! ~
She looked at Zhou Zhou's coquettish look at that time, and she was exactly the same as her troublesome daughter-in-law.
Listening to the angry words of the crowd, this is exactly what she wanted.
"To be honest, I used to take care of our family. I bought a bicycle and brought it home. If there was any emergency, I would lend it to them. But now, hum, don't even think about it. Poor Mingliang and Mingfang, they have suffered a lot."
Indeed, when the few people came, they didn't come empty-handed. Some brought eggs, some brought brown sugar. Wang Lianhua and Xifeng couldn't bring anything expensive, so they went to the fields to pick some seasonal vegetables. They
had originally agreed to work together in the evening, but now it was delayed.
As they were talking, someone came outside the yard, saying that he was from the brick factory. Zhu Juying in the house waved to him, "Go ahead, we are watching here, it's okay."
When Guo Xiuqin heard that someone from the brick factory had come, she also pushed Shen Meng out, but she followed them too. She wanted to hear what was going on. She knew the people from the brick factory, who looked down on people all day long. How did Shen Meng get involved with them?
"Go quickly, the people over there are not easy to deal with, let's see what's going on."
Shen Meng shook his head pretending not to know, and walked to the door as Guo Xiuqin pushed him away. The person who came was the security guard there.
"Hello, Comrade Shen, do you remember me? I was the one who received you when you came that day."
"Hello, Comrade, I remember. What does it mean for you to come here? Come in and have some water and talk slowly."
The young comrade shook his head and said, "No, no, I'm busy here, so I won't go over. This is a note, specially approved by our factory director. You can take it to the brick factory. Just ask someone to bring you as much as you need. I'll give you the things and then I'll go back."
Facing Guo Xiuqin's jealous expression, Shen Meng put the note in his arms and reached out to grab the security guard's bicycle.
"No, you can't do that. You've come here, drink some water before you go. This is the women's director of our production team. There won't be any bad influence. You've helped me so much, how can you not even drink a sip of water!"
The young man couldn't refuse, so he followed her into the yard, sighing in his heart, worthy of being a military family, so warm-hearted.
Shen Meng poured the young man brown sugar tea, washed two autumn melons for him, and then let him go.
After Guo Xiuqin and the others left, she immediately asked, "Oh, Xiao Meng, you are really amazing. You can even get in touch with the brick factory."
"Where? I went to the county today to ask about bricks and tiles. I didn't expect to receive a letter this afternoon. The people there are really responsible."
This made Guo Xiuqin choke. She was still responsible, and her nose was raised to the sky. It
was noon, and it was not appropriate for everyone to stay for long. With such a thing happening at home, Shen Meng asked Wang Lianhua to tell Erqing to help ask for leave for the three children so that they could go to school tomorrow.
The Lu family was in a gloomy mood. Lu Jiaxuan looked at Zhou Jiaojiao's red and swollen cheeks, feeling distressed and hating Shen Meng.
"Jiaojiao, you have suffered because your sister-in-law is too unreasonable. You just want to ask how she could be so harsh. She doesn't act like a sister-in-law at all."
Liu Sanjin rummaged through his kang cabinet for a long time before finally taking out three taels of brown sugar. He then brought it to Zhou Jiaojiao's kang.
"Good child, don't be sad. Mother has brought you some brown sugar. I'll ask your sister-in-law to cook two eggs for you later. Apply them on your face and don't go to work in the afternoon. Have a good rest. Your eldest brother will probably have a family visit leave this year. Then you can ask your eldest brother to teach her a lesson."
She herself didn't dare to go. After so many trips, she didn't get anything good and her reputation was ruined a lot.
"I'm too embarrassed to live. My eldest brother is familiar with the leaders of the commune, but not everyone can get the job. Jiaxuan is really capable, otherwise the leaders wouldn't value her. I thought my eldest brother must love Jiaxuan, otherwise why did my sister-in-law buy a bicycle right after he got the job? She hasn't thought about buying one for so many years. Isn't it obvious that it is prepared for Jiaxuan to go to work? But even if it's not, couldn't my sister-in-law say it nicely? Treating me like this in front of so many people, Jiaxuan, damn it, how can I face people in the future!"
She had been crying for half a day. She didn't get tired of talking so much that Xie Jing was tired of all the nice things she said. In the final analysis, it was greed. Otherwise, how could she ask for things so blatantly, and ask for such an expensive thing.
The eldest sister-in-law had reserved some sweet soup for her, but she was afraid that she would take advantage of the eldest sister-in-law's family and let the children have less to eat. But this girl was so good that she asked for it right away. Wow!
"Mom, my sister-in-law is too much. She shouldn't hit someone in the face. She treated Jiaojiao like this today. I have to ask her what she wants to do. Our family used to be harmonious. Does she have to break up our family to be happy?"
Lu Jiaxuan was very angry. When he turned around and left, he didn't pay attention and his arm knocked the glass cover of the kerosene lamp on the kang cabinet to the ground. It hit the ground with a "pop" sound, which made Xie Jinghao, who was listening outside, jump in her heart.
