After the Jiang family left, Yang's father and mother took a quick look at the gifts sent by the Jiang family. They found that there were not only rare things like cigarettes, wine, flour, maltose, and canned food, but also a lot of food coupons and industrial coupons.
The second son also got the food coupons, but the industrial coupons were much more expensive. In the past, when the second son, a worker, wanted to buy a bicycle, he had to ask his father-in-law for it with great difficulty.
Yang's father and mother gasped. The eldest brother, the fourth brother and the two sisters-in-law of the Yang family, who had just returned from work, were surprised and delighted to see the pile of gifts and industrial tickets from the Jiang family.
Not long after returning to the Jiang family, Jiang's mother found the steamed buns in her son's pocket. Little boy Tang Bao also found it and was very happy.
He took one and stuffed it into his mouth, then said to Jiang Mu in a baby voice, "My sister gave it to me. It's really delicious!"
Jiang Mu's favorable impression towards Shuying is simply not very good at this moment.
Even Father Jiang thought that the little girl from the Yang family was quite good, not to mention Old Mrs. Jiang.
Mother Jiang then asked, "Old Jiang, what do you think of me being a matchmaker for the little girl?"
Father Jiang was not interested in this matter. When Mrs. Jiang learned that the girl and the officer from last time were not a couple, she agreed with both hands and asked her son if there was any young man with good character and good looks in the factory.
Father Jiang thought that the young men in the factory were all serious workers, so why would they marry a country girl? No matter how pretty the girl was, even if the young man was willing, how could his family agree?
So Father Jiang didn't plan to wade into this muddy water.
Of course, if there really is a suitable young man who doesn't mind marrying a country girl in the future, Jiang's father would still be happy to help.
Father Jiang had no young man to introduce, and Old Lady Jiang and Mother Jiang did not have any suitable candidates, so they had to put their plans for matchmaking for the little girl on hold for the time being.
It was around six in the evening when it got dark that An Meixue learned that Zhu Yingfang had been sent to the farm for reform, and her heart immediately sank.
When she learned that Zhu Yingfang had actually reported Yang Shuying openly and directly instead of secretly passing the information on, An Meixue had a new understanding of Zhu Yingfang's stupidity.
I only regretted that I didn't say a few more words last night, and I also hated Zhu Yingfang for being too stupid for not sending Yang Shuying to the farm for transformation.
The fact that Zhu Yingfang was sent to a farm for reform caused quite a stir among the educated youth.
But everyone knows that it was Zhu Yingfang who reported Yang Shuying personally and openly.
Although the educated youth in the educated youth center did not like Yang Shuying, they all hated reporting such things.
You know, Yang Shuying was born and raised in Hongyang Society.
If Zhu Yingfang had succeeded in reporting the incident, who knows whether the villagers would have been hostile and isolated towards them, the educated youth!
It's of no benefit to these educated youth.
Therefore, the fact that Zhu Yingfang was sent to a farm for reform only caused a little commotion among the educated youth and then it faded away.
Only An Meixue felt very aggrieved. In addition, her golden finger disappeared, and it was time to harvest every day. Her skin was getting darker and darker from the sun. She didn't have the courage to go in front of Brother Jiang every day. An Meixue's mood became worse and worse.
Everyone in the room looked like someone who had stolen her golden finger.
During the lunch break, Xia Shanshan simply said that Xu Mengqi had paler skin, and An Meixue immediately sat up and stared at Xu Mengqi with fixed eyes.
Xu Mengqi was looking at him in an inexplicably pervasive way.
Needless to say, Xu Mengqi, who applied lotion every day during this period, has become whiter.
An Meixue smiled but didn't really smile and suddenly said, "Mengqi, why do you look a lot whiter to me?"
Xu Mengqi didn't think much about it. She thought An Meixue was really praising her, and she was very happy to brag that she had a secret recipe for whitening her skin.
An Meixue looked at Xu Mengqi with an increasingly strange look in her eyes, but Xu Mengqi didn't notice it yet. She looked at herself in the mirror happily and thought she was naturally beautiful.
In the blink of an eye, another week has passed, and the summer harvest that took half a month to harvest has finally come to an end.
The weather was very good during the past half month, with only a little rain for one or two days, which did not affect the harvest at all.
There was some trouble at the summer harvest youth training center this week, with An Meixue and Xu Mengqi having a falling out.
Xu Mengqi accused An Meixue of secretly going through her things and the whole village knew about it, which further damaged An Meixue's reputation.
This incident did not affect Shuying's mood at all. On the contrary, it made her very happy. It would be even better if the two could continue to fight each other.
After the summer harvest, when the public grain has been handed in, it is time to distribute the grain.
The summer harvest was good this year. Recently, every household in the village has been carrying grain back home from the brigade according to their centimeters. They are in a very good mood.
The same thing happened in Shuying's family. Father Yang, the eldest brother, and the fourth brother carried back hundreds of kilograms of food that day, which made Mother Yang very happy.
After eating salty vegetable pancakes for a week, Shuying missed the taste of white rice very much.
Unfortunately, before Shuying could have the white rice, all the fine grains were exchanged by Yang's mother for several thousand kilograms of miscellaneous grains.
The shadows of the trees are weeping without tears.
Fortunately, to her surprise, she tried to upload the engraved box she had picked up at the scrap station and the skin care products and scarves that the system had rewarded her with to the mall store.
This morning I found that in addition to skin care products, several patterned boxes and scarves, as well as her accumulated mushrooms, were all for sale.
I sold it for 220 yuan, which is 220 points.
This time, there were not many mushrooms, so I didn’t make much money. Most of the 220 RMB was from selling boxes and scarves.
Shuying bought a lot of good things in the mall, such as white flour, rice, oil, instant noodles, white sugar, and white noodles.
It's a pity that she couldn't take it out right away.
Saving the child last time gave her a good excuse, but this time she really couldn't think of a reason to take the things out.
Shuying urgently felt that he needed a job.
It would be even better if I could work in a state-owned hotel.
She will no longer have to worry about finding a reason to take out these foods in the future.
However, in the 1960s, it was harder than climbing to the sky for ordinary country people to become a worker. Not only did it require money, but also connections and luck.
Nowadays, everyone thinks being a worker is the most honorable, so no one would be willing to exchange jobs with you.
If a family in the village had a worker, it was a very remarkable thing.
Shuying was having a headache because of work, and Yang's mother, who had some free time, finally had time to cook for her daughter. She would either secretly feed her a boiled egg or make her a cup of malted milk every day.
Several of Yang's grandchildren also gave him a chance to be beaten, but only rarely.
Not to mention the two granddaughters, Da Ya and Er Ya.
Shuying couldn't stand it anymore, so he secretly asked Yang's mother for a can of maltose, saying that he was hiding it to make things easier for himself.
Yang's mother believed it to be true. After all, these things were earned by her young lady herself, so how could Yang's mother be unhappy? She even asked her to drink more recently to whiten her skin.
Shuying had no idea that Yang's mother was already planning to find a partner for her, and had even asked fourth brother Yang to go to the county town today to pass on the message.
After getting a can of maltose, Shuying would make himself a cup whenever he had time, and of course he would also make some for his nephews and nieces.
But Dahu, Erhu, Xiaohu, Daya and Erya were very happy.
During this week, I made malt milk for the little guys from time to time after passing by Shuying. They are no longer skinny. They seem to have gained a little weight, and their yellow hair has become darker.
The shadow of the tree gives me a special sense of accomplishment.
Several nephews and nieces also liked to hang around the shadow of the tree more and more. Their enthusiasm made the eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan and the third sister-in-law Wang Rong feel a little jealous.
However, the two sisters-in-law also know that the younger sister really loves her nephews and nieces. They heard from their own children that the younger sister would make malt milk for them from time to time.
In addition, the younger sister allowed them to use soap, so the two sisters-in-law began to like their sister-in-law more and more. Although they still felt a little jealous that Mother Yang was partial to her, they had nothing to complain about the good things the younger sister did for her nephews and nieces.
The only thing that puzzled the two sisters-in-law was that they used
My skin has gotten a little better, not as oily as before, but not as white as my little sister's.
During this period, I don’t know what my sister ate, but not only did her face become prettier and prettier, but her skin became whiter and glowing.
In the past, they said that my skin glowed because they were country people who were used to exaggerating. But now, when they occasionally take a closer look at my skin, they realize that it is really very white. It is estimated that no girl in the county city can be as white as my sister.
Why do they feel that the little sister looks more and more like a fairy? Her little face is particularly distinctive and her lips are a little thin and red, as if she had put on lip balm.
If I hadn't been under their eyes every day, they would have thought that a fairy had turned into my appearance.
Sometimes the two sisters-in-law thought the younger sister's face was too dazzling, not to mention other gay men.
Fortunately, my younger sister doesn’t like to go out much and prefers to stay at home.
Shuying didn't know what her two sisters-in-law were muttering in their hearts. The reason why her hair became much whiter was that she drank the nectar again this week.
This time the nectar wasn’t as effective as the first time, but the effect was also very good.
Now she still insists on washing her hair with nectar diluted water every day, and her black hair has grown very well. According to Yang's mother, no one in the surrounding area has better and blacker hair than her.
If your hair is darker, won't your skin look whiter?
After the villagers finally distributed the grain, they had to plant winter wheat immediately.
However, planting winter wheat is not as urgent as harvesting in summer. Taking advantage of the free time of Yang's father, Shuying finally found an opportunity to ask her father to make her the ancestral wooden plaque that she had worn before.
Father Yang doted on his daughter very much and never asked her any questions. When he had time, he even made her an identical little wooden sign.
But before Yang Shuying could slap An Meixue in the face.
Two days later in the morning, Shuying was shocked to learn from Yang's mother that her mother had asked her second brother and his wife to find a blind date for her in the city.
It is said that the other party is a worker of some kind, and the conditions are very good. Yang's mother attaches great importance to him and even said that her second brother will come by bike to pick her up this morning to go to the county town to meet him.
This matter caused an uproar in the Yang family, especially since the younger sister's blind date was a reliable young worker. This made the Yang family's father and son very happy. The two sisters-in-law felt jealous of the younger sister's good fortune, but they also hoped that the younger sister would marry well and bring honor to the family in the future.
For this purpose, Yang's mother specially prepared a thin red cotton coat and lantern pants.
To be honest, Shuying majored in fashion design all her life and cannot appreciate such a combination at all. Moreover, why would she wear red, such a festive color, when she is not getting married, let alone on a blind date?
Shuying refused without thinking and said coquettishly to Yang's mother
"Mom, I'm still young, there's no rush for blind dates or marriage. If I really get married, will you be willing to let me go?"
Of course, Yang's mother couldn't bear to part with her youngest daughter. It could be said that among her five children, this was the one that Yang's mother valued the most and invested the most affection in. However, Yang's mother wanted her daughter to marry a good man even more.
This time there was a good opportunity, how could Yang's mother refuse it? She touched her daughter's head and said, "My daughter, be obedient. I heard from the fourth brother that the conditions of the person your second brother and his wife found for you this time are very good. If you miss this one, it will be difficult to find a better one. Let's go to the county town to take a look. If you are really not satisfied, mother will not force you!"
Yang Shuying was about to say something when he heard a "ding" in his head.
"Ding, a random mission drop. Be a good and filial child. Please agree to the blind date immediately. Complete the mission and you will be rewarded with three hours of good luck!"
Yang Shuying: “…”
