Chapter 421: The Show-off Mother-in-law
Very good!
Lu Yuzhu smiled and jumped up with joy: "Sister-in-law, I like you so much!"
After saying that, he rushed over and gave her a bear hug...
Xu Zijin: “…”
——Uh, isn’t this a bit too enthusiastic?
"Mom, didn't you buy any fish?"
Seeing her mother-in-law coming back empty-handed, Xu Zijin, who was held by her sister-in-law, asked curiously.
Mother Lu explained: "No, no, it's not."
"It's still early. It will take at least another hour to drain the water."
"It's too cold outside, come back and warm up first."
When Xu Zijin heard this, he immediately said, "Mom, then come sit in my room. It's warm there, and I just want to talk to you."
There are no heated kangs in other rooms, but the room Xu Zijin lives in has an attached kitchen.
Similarly, Mother Lu also wanted to chat with her daughter-in-law, so she followed her in.
"Mom, sit on the kang."
Xu Zijin made some tea and brought it over.
Mother Lu nodded and patted the kang: "You sit down too."
"Zijin, the cotton seeds and fertilizers you sent are really great."
"From that three acres of land, we earned more than 200 kilograms of cotton this year."
"I didn't sell even a pound of it. Some of it was made into cotton-padded clothes and trousers, and the rest was all made into large quilts."
"Look, isn't this quilt thick?"
"I have prepared two beds for you as well. I will send them to you from the post office when the time comes."
The excitement on her mother-in-law's face infected Xu Zijin, and she nodded with a smile: "Mother, it's mainly because you grow well."
"I just bought three new quilts before the New Year, and I wanted to send two of them to you."
"Han Zhou said that his family was growing cotton and asked me not to send it."
"You don't have to send it to me. Just keep it at home."
"Mom, these two watches were bought for me by my cousin from Guangdong Province. The small one is yours, and the big one is Dad's."
"See if you like it."
When she saw the two brand new watches, Lu's mother's mouth could swallow an egg: "..."
——My goodness, this daughter-in-law is so generous!
——A watch!
——How much money will this cost!
Thinking of money, Lu's mother immediately waved her hands: "Zijin, why would a farmer like you wear a watch?"
"No, no, it's such a waste for me to wear this thing!"
"Take it back. There will definitely be someone in the city who wants it. Sell it quickly."
"I don't need it. I don't need it."
Faced with her mother-in-law's fearful look, Xu Zijin was happy.
"Mom, you are a brigade cadre, how can you be a farmer?"
"Besides, what's wrong with a farmer wearing a watch? Who said we can't? Mom, it would be much more convenient to have a watch."
"I have money, so I don't mind that."
"This five hundred dollars is the reward Hanzhou received for participating in the military competition last time."
"We have money, so we'll keep it for our family."
After saying that, Xu Zijin put the money in Lu Ma's hand, then took her hand and put on the watch...
"Well, this watch is suitable for my mother's cadre temperament"
"puff."
Mother Lu was amused: "What kind of cadre am I?"
"A person who only deals with women's gossips cannot be called a cadre."
"Zijin, I like this watch so much, but I feel a little sorry for the money."
"One hundred for one?"
Xu Zijin smiled: "Mom, this kind of watch costs one hundred and eighty yuan in Guang Province."
"But your daughter-in-law can make money. I have earned several thousand yuan in royalties from two books."
"Let me tell you, I have another book to be published in the next two months."
"I heard that there are TVs, rice cookers and washing machines for sale in Guangdong Province."
"I want to go take a look at it when the time comes. If it's good to buy, I'll buy a few back."
Lu Ma had seen the TV at the home of the commune director when she was attending a commune meeting.
I heard that the small box-like thing costs thousands of dollars.
She immediately waved her hand: "I don't need that thing. I won't be able to use it even if I buy it."
"The captain's son-in-law sent us an old TV. It worked fine in the county, but when it came to our village, there was only a little bit of snow."
"Later, we got an antenna, but it just turned the big snowflakes into small ones. It was useless."
All right!
In this declining era, Xu Zijin could only say that he was powerless.
"The rice cooker and washing machine will come in handy. Oh, and the tape recorder will come in handy too. I'll buy these when the time comes."
Lu's mother had never seen an electric rice cooker or a washing machine, let alone a tape recorder.
She is not interested in recording or anything like that.
"Zijin, are you saying that a rice cooker can cook rice and a washing machine can wash clothes just like a washing machine?"
Xu Zijin nodded: "Yes."
Knowledge limits one's imagination.
Mother Lu looked at Xu Zijin in disbelief: "This is too magical, right? There is a machine that can cook and wash clothes?"
"Zijin, who on earth did you hear that from? Were you deceived?"
Xu Zijin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she became an explainer for rice cookers and washing machines...
After hearing this, the shock on Lu's mother's face was beyond words.
"Zi Jin, such a magical thing must be expensive, just buy it and use it yourself."
"Except for the busy farming season, I am usually quite free. You should cook and wash clothes by yourself. You don't need to buy them for me."
"I know you make money, but your expenses are also high."
"Keep them all. Mother doesn't know how to use those foreign things."
Whether to buy it or not, we’ll decide later.
Seeing that it was getting late, Xu Zijin stuffed the money and watch into her mother-in-law's arms...
"Mom, it's 2:40, hurry up and buy some fish, or they'll be gone."
Looking at the things in her hand, Mother Lu sighed and went out: My daughter-in-law loves to eat fish, so buy a few more today.
"Zijin, would you like to go for a walk with mother?"
Xu Zijin blinked: "Go buy fish?"
Mother Lu nodded: "Yes, I am going to buy fish."
"You just arrived and you are not familiar with this place. I want to take you out for a walk. Do you want to go?"
"Da Mao told me that you like to eat fish. I plan to buy a few more. Can you help me carry a few?"
——Mom, you don’t want to take me out to show off, do you?
Xu Zijin, who wanted to laugh, thought about it and realized that since she was the daughter-in-law of the Lu family in this life, it was not impossible for her to let her mother-in-law show off.
"Well, go ahead, I'll change my shoes."
"good."
Mother Lu smiled!
What is it like to have a smart daughter-in-law?
What is it like to have a smart and beautiful daughter-in-law?
What is it like to have a daughter-in-law who is smart, beautiful, good at making money, and filial?
——Hahaha, she is probably the only one in the whole brigade who has such a good daughter-in-law!
Feeling proud, Mother Lu went into the house to put down her things, then she took Xu Zijin out with excitement...
"Hey, are you taking your daughter-in-law out?"
As soon as I went out, I met Huang Cuihua.
Mother Lu smiled and nodded: "Yes, Zijin just came, I took her out for a walk."
She also wants to bring out a daughter-in-law who is both rich and beautiful.
Huang Cuihua hadn't responded yet, but she noticed the watch on Lu's mother's hand, "Lan Fang, what are you wearing on that hand?"
Yo?
Just found out?
Huang Cuihua’s eyes are really sharp, aren’t they?
