In their minds, marrying a city man makes one superior.
Cheng Ya didn't think so. Their lives were not easy in the past few years. There were many people in the family and sometimes there were not enough food coupons. Boys have big appetites, so sometimes they would be full and hungry.
The situation improved only after the eldest and second sons started working. Sometimes living in the city is worse than living in the village, because at least we can keep our own food and have food for the new year.
The city looks glamorous, but in reality the food and daily necessities are not enough if you are not careful with your budget.
When Cheng Ya spoke her true thoughts, Aunt Cheng thought that Cheng Ya was not happy to see her daughter marrying into a wealthy family.
"Don't get me wrong, we are not talking to each other." Cheng Ya said awkwardly.
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
But this was not the time to turn hostile. Aunt Cheng came this time partly to show off her daughter's wealthy marriage and partly to ask Cheng Ya to borrow grain coupons and banknotes.
This time they planned to set up a few tables in the village. After all, she married so well that she had to be seen by some relatives.
But I had trouble getting food coupons and banknotes, so I came to Cheng Ya, after all, she has a big family.
Cheng Ya was also in a dilemma. She had some money, but it was also for her children's marriage. Not to mention others, Su He and Fu Ran's marriage could not be delayed any longer.
But since her elder sister had spoken, Cheng Ya didn't know what to say. She turned and went to the bedroom, and took out a small stack of food and grain coupons, as well as some candy coupons.
I had no intention of asking them to pay it back. Judging from my eldest sister's personality, I didn't think they would be able to pay it back.
When she brought it over, Aunt Cheng was a little disappointed and said, "That's all!"
"There's no other way. Sixth brother's wedding is coming soon, so we have to save some." Cheng Ya said truthfully.
"Oh, where is Lao Liu's girlfriend from? Does she have a job? How much is her salary?" Aunt Cheng asked.
"Well, he's from the art troupe, but I don't know how much he makes." Cheng Ya didn't care about other people's salaries, so she never asked.
"You're so silly, why don't you ask. For example, my son-in-law 놖 gets 30 yuan a month, and the company gives him gifts during festivals. Last Chinese New Year, his company gave him a few cans of food and a bottle of maltose! Yes, and a small bag of apples. What good benefits." Aunt Cheng said happily, as if those things were distributed to her family.
Su He couldn't stand his aunt's expression. When he was a child and the family conditions were not good, this aunt would often come to the house to show off how much she had eaten and what new things she had bought.
Later, when conditions at home improved, she stopped coming.
This kind of person is just showing off because he is poor.
Su He said, "Aunt, Fu Ran will be promoted to the head of the art troupe of our family soon. His salary is about 60 yuan a month, which is a pity. Usually, there is nothing good to give him, but maybe a bonus of ten or eight yuan."
Aunt Cheng's face froze. With a bonus of ten or eight yuan, who would care about those things?
How come this boy Su He is so lucky?
She said, "You can't marry a wife who is too capable, because she will be hard to control in the future."
"Aunt, what you said is wrong. My cousin shouldn't have chosen a cadre when she got married this time. She will suffer in the future." Su He said rudely.
"What? How can this man and woman be the same?" Aunt Cheng glared at him. "Besides, they have a very good relationship."
"Sixth brother, stop talking nonsense." Cheng Ya hurriedly stopped Su and 놇 from arguing.
"Mom, Sixth Brother, you're back!" Su Xiaoluo appeared at the door with a tearful look.
"Little girl!" Su He immediately stood up and rushed over, not caring about Aunt Cheng, and hugged Su Xiaoluo. "What kind of letter did you write, you made my sixth brother so worried!"
"Hehe!" Su Xiaoluo said with a smile, "If I hadn't written it more seriously, how could you bear to come back?"
"I'm glad you're okay!" Su He happily rubbed her hair. "Where's Fu Shaoting?"
"Let him go back first." Su Xiaoluo said, and saw two people in the living room. "This is."
"This is our aunt, and your cousin Song Lili." Su He introduced.
Aunt Cheng looks somewhat similar to Cheng Ya, but the corners of her mouth are droopy and her eyes are triangular.
His mind is not as good as Cheng Ya's, and his fate is also average.
"Hey, is this Wanwan?" Aunt Cheng asked with a smile, "You've grown into a big girl."
"No, she is Nannan, a lady from the royal family." Cheng Ya explained quickly.
"The one who was lost when she was three years old?" Aunt Cheng still remembered. She immediately praised Su Xiaoluo again and said, "You were very smart when you were a child, and you have become so beautiful when you grow up. Little sister, you are so lucky!"
Cheng Ya nodded and said, "Yes! This is God's favor!"
"Where's Wanwan? Why don't I see her?" Aunt Cheng said, "That girl is very sweet. She must be very happy to have a new sister!"
"That child..." Cheng Ya looked embarrassed.
"Why, now that you have found your daughter, you don't want anyone else?" Aunt Cheng frowned, "You can't be so ignorant!"
"This is a long story, let's talk about it later!" Cheng Ya didn't want to mention it.
"Nannan, come and sit down." Aunt Cheng pulled Su Xiaoluo to her side affectionately, holding her hand and saying, "Your cousin is getting married soon! She is looking for an executive in a department store. You should look up to your cousin when you look for a partner in the future!"
Song Lili looked shy: "Mom, please don't mention it so often!"
"That young lady has good taste, and I am not allowed to say anything about her!" Aunt Cheng was very satisfied with this girl.
Su Xiaoluo looked at Song Lili, who looked miserable, and couldn't help but say, "If you haven't registered your marriage yet, it's best to examine the other person's character. Conditions are not the best criteria for selecting a partner!"
Aunt Cheng frowned and said unhappily, "What do you two have in mind? Are you jealous of your daughter Lili getting married well?"
Su Xiaoluo continued, "Aren't you a lesson learned from the past?"
Aunt Cheng was hit in the sore spot. She thought that the Song family was the village chief and that they must have better food and clothing than others. But who knew that the man she married was lazy and she had to do all the housework.
Later, her father-in-law passed away and her husband was not elected as the village chief.
After going through a lot of hardships and finally waiting for his daughter to find a good partner, he was willing to come to Cheng Ya to show off.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Ya and her daughter were so gloomy here. She said angrily: "What do you mean? What do you mean by "a lesson from the past"? With a betrothal gift of 200 yuan and three turns and one ring, can you find such a target?"
Su Xiaoluo pondered for a moment and said, "Sixth Brother said he would help me prepare these things, right?"
Su He made a fortune and immediately promised, "Yes, my sister will find a partner and marry him in style. All these things should be prepared. Aunt, you have received so much dowry, how much dowry should you prepare?"
