Chapter 14: First Opportunity
The old lady left with the eldest son and his wife.
Fan Xiuying was sent to the bus station.
Watch the car drive away.
Fan Xiuying wiped the sweat off her face, her back was soaked.
Dealing with my elder brother and his wife is more stressful than fighting a war.
Jiang Xiaoxiao stuffed the handkerchief into Fan Xiuying's hand.
"Mom, I'm sure you're scared, but my grandma doesn't eat people. Look, my grandma is actually reasonable, she didn't make a fuss today."
She wanted Fan Xiuying to understand that grandma was not scary.
Fan Xiuying wiped her sweat and said, "You, your mother is most afraid of your grandmother. If the old lady gets angry, your mother will just surrender. You are really good today. You figured out your grandmother's thoughts. Otherwise, our family will be in trouble this time."
Lao Jiang’s job is the only way out for this family.
Whether his son can go to work depends on Lao Jiang's work.
If they gave the stones to others, they would just be left sitting there doing nothing.
"How do you know what your uncle and aunt are going to do? I don't know! Your father probably doesn't know either. This time, your uncle and aunt are probably planning something to catch us off guard and make us agree.
By the time you react, it will be too late."
"I only found out because I got close to my grandma! Otherwise, how would I know? I'm not a worm in my uncle and aunt's stomach. My grandma walked here! She walked here before daybreak, and my uncle and others came later.
Thanks to this, I was mentally prepared! Otherwise, I wouldn’t know. ”
Xiaoxiao happily hugged her mother's arm.
This is her mother, even if she is an adoptive mother, she is still her mother.
In this life, she would never let her mother go to such lengths to die without medical treatment.
She wants her family to live happily in this life.
"mom!"
Jiang Xiaoxiao and Fan Xiuying turned around and saw their second sister Jiang Xin and brother-in-law Qin Dazhuang with surprise.
Jiang Xin was pregnant and it looked like she was already more than nine months pregnant. Her belly was so big that it was a little scary.
"Second sister, second brother-in-law, why did you come back? You came all the way here. Second sister, you are so pregnant, it must be so tiring. Brother-in-law, you are such a fool! How can you let my second sister suffer so much?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao hurried over to support Jiang Xin. This second sister and this second child had suffered a lot.
Unfortunately, it was a girl, and this pregnancy caused a lot of complaints from Qin Dazhuang's mother.
The old lady favors boys over girls and doesn't like her granddaughter.
Especially the second son did not listen to the old lady and insisted on marrying his second sister Jiang Xin.
The son works as a carpenter in the factory, and can also make some extra money by making furniture for others privately to support the family. Otherwise, the old lady would be even more furious.
Qin Dazhuang is a simple and honest man. He looks tall, but he is shy and blushes when people talk to him.
Especially his sister-in-law, who keeps talking so much, he can't keep up.
"Well, Jiang Xin missed her parents, I... well... I didn't think that much... Sister... I..."
Jiang Xiaoxiao frightened them all and they stuttered.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was happy.
"Second sister, you see, those who know me think I'm your sister-in-law, but those who don't think I'm a tigress, and I even scared my brother-in-law to the point of stuttering."
Teasing Qin Dazhuang.
Qin Dazhuang touched his head and grinned foolishly.
The second sister Jiang Xin glared at Jiang Xiaoxiao and pinched her, "You are the only one who talks nonsense. Mom, look at your little girl bullying others now, do you want to do anything about it?"
Fan Xiuying was also worried when she saw her daughter's somewhat scary belly.
But he still smiled and said, "I don't care, if you have the guts, you can bully me back."
The whole family walked back up and down.
Fan Xiuying thought to herself that she would cook a good meal for her daughter when she came back.
I only have eight dollars in my pocket, so why not go buy some meat?
There are also half a pound of meat tickets.
The second son's mother-in-law is very stingy and she definitely wouldn't be willing to give him anything delicious.
"Mom, I'm going to buy some groceries. Give me the money, and you and my second brother-in-law can go back."
Jiang Xiaoxiao knew what her mother was thinking.
Ask proactively.
It was just afternoon and still early in the evening, and she wanted to go somewhere.
If I remember correctly, I have made some money and left some useful money for my parents.
Relying on the little salary of parents, even if you cut your belt, you can't expect to live a good life.
Fan Xiuying took out the money and meat coupons from her pocket and wrapped them all in a handkerchief.
Before she could take out a dollar and a meat ticket, Jiang Xiaoxiao snatched them away.
"Mom, I'm going, I'll refund the extra money and make up the extra money."
The handkerchief in Yangyang's hand had already disappeared.
Fan Xiuying was so angry.
This girl! She's so rebellious.
Now they dare to steal things.
But the son-in-law couldn't say anything.
The three of them returned home.
Jiang Xiaoxiao took the handkerchief and looked at it. Her mother only had a little over eight yuan, a meat coupon, and a cloth coupon, nothing else.
That’s right!
Her mother estimated that it was the wages she received from the matchbox factory.
Eight pieces is really not a lot.
But in this era it is already a huge sum of money.
The monthly salary is only 32.5 yuan, and 8 yuan is already a lot.
She ran straight to where they were three blocks away.
Where is that?
It is the only scrap collection station here.
It's state-owned, nothing wrong with it.
Because it is state-owned, the staff here are idle and do not work seriously.
If she remembered correctly.
She heard that in her previous life, it was at a recycling station here that someone bought a stack of old newspapers to paste on the walls and also brought back two useless dictionaries or something.
As a result, several gold bars were found in the dictionary.
I don’t know if I hid it in the book and forgot about it, or what.
This proves that the family secretly exchanged the money on the black market.
That’s a full ten thousand dollars.
This incident was later told by this man's grandson.
It is also a typical example of unexpected wealth.
Since she already knew about this opportunity, why not take advantage of it?
At this time, there was no formal reform and opening up, and private individuals did not dare to operate in the market.
Even if she had a lot of skills, she had no way to put them to use. It would be extremely difficult for her to start a business and make money.
So my mind immediately turned to this.
I haven't thought about making my family rich, but I'm going to move to the countryside soon, so what if I don't leave some money for my parents?
If my eldest brother really takes over my father's job, the family's income will drop sharply.
If parents don't have any money, they will encounter many problems.
For example, if the eldest brother is getting married in two years, the family may not even be able to come up with the money for the bride price, not to mention that there are also the eldest and second sisters and her to worry their parents.
My mother lived frugally and tightened her belt every year to save money, just to send some food subsidies to my eldest sister.
I guess she would have received the same treatment if she had gone there, but because of this her parents couldn't have food or drink.
She definitely felt bad about it.
So before leaving, you must leave some money for your parents to rely on.
Since it is unexpected wealth, whoever gets it will get it.
She should seize this opportunity.
