When the women heard about washing machine, their eyes widened!
I heard that washing machines are very expensive and cannot be bought at the supply and marketing cooperatives. They are only available at department stores in the county.
"What do you usually do?" a woman asked Yu Xiangnian.
Yu Xiangnian said truthfully: "I don't have a job."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone had the same thought.
Without your parents’ supervision, the wife you find yourself will be unreliable!
What's the point of just looking handsome?!
Not only does she raise children by picking them up, but she also doesn't do any housework. She's been married for so long, and she doesn't even have a child!
Yu Xiangnian naturally didn't know what everyone was thinking.
There is no habit of eating breakfast after getting up here. The food was served at around ten o'clock in the morning, and I didn't know whether it was breakfast or lunch.
There weren't many people at this morning's meal, just the neighbors around, and there were three tables of food.
During the meal, Cheng Jingmo finally had some free time.
Yu Xiangnian took Xiaojie over, sat next to Cheng Jingmo, and prepared to eat.
Everyone looked at her in astonishment!
Yu Xiangnian was confused and asked Cheng Jingmo, "What's wrong?"
"Come here, my dear wife!" Cheng Jingmo's mother Mu Huanzhen shouted at her with an unhappy look on her face.
Yu Xiangnian was about to stand up when Cheng Jingmo held her shoulders and said, "You sit down, I'll go over."
Cheng Jingmo walked up to Mu Huanzhen and said, "Mom, Yu Xiangnian is not from here. They don't have this custom there. She has been eating at the table since she was a child. I can't deny her the table just because she married me. No matter where she goes, she should eat at the table!"
He spoke loudly, as if he wanted everyone present to hear him.
Everyone present fell silent. They looked at Cheng Jingmo and then at Yu Xiangnian.
Only at this moment did Yu Xiangnian understand what everyone's eyes meant.
Cheng Jingmo defended her in front of everyone, and she felt warm in her heart.
At the same time, it was also a bit bitter. Cheng Jingmo was caught in the middle and it was difficult for him.
She felt a burning sensation on her spine, as if she was being seen through by everyone.
She straightened her back, sat upright, and faced everyone's gaze without fear!
She just wants to sit at the table to eat. She is not something shameful!
Cheng Jingmo said to everyone, "Thank you all for coming early this morning, let's eat!"
Cheng Shuanzhu also came to the rescue in time and shouted to everyone: "Everyone sit down and eat, it will get cold soon."
The men found a table and sat down, while the women huddled in a corner outside the kitchen, whispering to each other while waiting for the men to eat.
Cheng Jingmo walked over and sat next to Yu Xiangnian, leaving Mu Huanzhen standing there glaring at the two of them angrily.
Zhang Hongli scoffed and leaned close to Mu Huanzhen's ear and said, "Mom, my brother just forgot about me after he got married!"
Cheng Huazi and several elders of similar age sat at another table, and everyone looked unhappy.
Cheng Jingmo gave Yu Xiangnian and Xiaojie a steamed bun each.
This is a steamed bun mixed with sorghum flour, which is hard and choking.
There were only two dishes on the table, fried potatoes and cold eggplant, eaten with steamed buns.
In just a few bites, the two dishes were picked up completely.
Yu Xiangnian was very hungry, but he couldn't swallow it after eating half a steamed bun.
In front of everyone, she couldn't give the remaining half of the steamed bun to Cheng Jingmo.
Cheng Jingmo said calmly: "Forget it if you can't eat it, just give it to me."
Yu Xiangnian held a steamed bun in her hand and looked at him with complicated eyes.
Heartbeat, touching, distressed, unbearable...all kinds of emotions intertwined.
Cheng Jingmo took the steamed bun from her hand calmly and said, "In another hour or two, the guests will be here. Go back to the room and prepare."
It was obviously to find a reason for her to escape from this Shura field.
"Oh." Yu Xiangnian said guiltily.
Back in the room, Yu Xiangnian sat dejectedly on the edge of the bed.
It's only the first day, and she already feels it's so hard. There's still a month left. How should she get through it?
Outside the kitchen, there is chaos!
Three women make a play, and when so many women get together, there are ten or eight plays!
Someone comforted Mu Huanzhen.
"His aunt, don't be angry! There's no such custom in the place where they pick up children to serve as soldiers, so forget it."
"Just eat it when it's on the table. My wife won't be here long anyway, so don't ruin the harmony of the family."
"The wife who picked up the baby must have been educated. How...what...how did you say that?"
"Intellectuals! That's right! Intellectuals don't care about that!"
There were also people who instigated it, and Zhang Hongli was one of them.
She pouted in dissatisfaction and said, "Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. If you marry into our Cheng family, you must abide by our customs!"
Someone agreed.
"That's right, a woman sitting at the table with men as equals, what a shame!"
"Picking up a baby is just too pampering for this daughter-in-law! Isn't it just that she looks prettier!"
Zhang Hongli scoffed, "Looks good?! She looks like a vixen!"
On the other side, Cheng Jingmo finished eating and went into the room to see Yu Xiangnian.
Yu Xiangnian is a person who is pampered by her family. She must have been wronged by coming here with him!
As soon as he entered the room, Yu Xiangnian rushed over and hugged him, and Cheng Jingmo quickly closed the door.
Yu Xiangnian buried his face in Cheng Jingmo's shoulder and murmured, "Cheng Jingmo..." It's hard for you!
Cheng Jingmo hugged her back and said, "I'll cook noodles for you after the guests leave."
Yu Xiangnian raised his head and looked at him and said, "I didn't expect there would be so many questions."
Now that I think about it, Zhao Ruozhu really had good intentions.
She really doesn't know how to get along with her husband's family!
Cheng Jingmo stroked her smooth face with his thumb, "Don't think too much, let me handle it if anything happens."
Yu Xiangnian was not in a good mood, "Yeah."
Cheng Jingmo said, "Take out the clothes you bought for your parents and let them change into them."
Cheng Jingmo brought two sets of clothes and brought Yu Xiangnian to the main room.
Cheng Huazi and a few old men were smoking dry tobacco, and the whole room was filled with the pungent smell.
"Dad, this is the clothes my wife bought for you." Cheng Jingmo gestured to Yu Xiangnian. She held the clothes in both hands and handed them to Cheng Huazi. "Today is a good day, you should wear this new dress."
Cheng Huazi looked at the two of them expressionlessly for a while, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, and in the end he said nothing.
He put down his pipe and took the clothes.
Cheng Jingmo took out the candy he had bought and prepared to give it to the guests.
In the room, Cheng Jingmo changed into clean clothes and asked Yu Xiangnian to put on the flowery cotton jacket.
Yu Xiangnian looked at the bright red and green clothes on the bed and still felt resistant in her heart.
Cheng Jingmo said, "Believe me, this looks good on you. All the new brides here wear it like this."
After Cheng Jingmo said this, Yu Xiangnian was 100% sure that this outfit didn't look good on her!
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Sister-in-law, are you in there?"
It was the voice of Cheng Shuan's wife Liu Cuihua.
