"Sister-in-law, I heard from my younger sister that my second sister-in-law makes a lot of money writing articles. Is that true?"
"About this, I'm not sure." Faced with Su Lixiu's questions one after another, Zhou Xiuqiao became more and more speechless.
How much money do they earn?
How much money do they have?
What does it have to do with outsiders like them? No matter how much they earn, it's still theirs.
I really don't know why she cares so much about other people's business? "Sister-in-law, tell me, if I ask my second sister-in-law to teach me how to write an article, will she teach me?" Su Lixiu has been thinking about this for a long time.
Shen Zhihuan graduated from junior high school.
She also graduated from junior high school.
When she was in junior high school, her teachers always praised her compositions.
Although she hasn't picked up a pen for a long time, if Shen Zhihuan can give her some guidance, she should be able to write it.
She didn't want to earn hundreds of yuan a month like Shen Zhihuan. She would be satisfied if she could earn one or two hundred yuan a month.
"Your second brother only has about ten days of vacation..." Zhou Xiuqiao said tactfully.
There are only about ten days in total, and we have to hold a wedding banquet...
"Lixiu, there's not much work left. I can do it all by myself. It's rare for you to come back. Come and chat with me!"
Zhou Xiuqiao was really afraid that her sister-in-law would say something shocking again.
Su Lixiu is a member of the Su family. If she says anything wrong, her mother, father and brother will take responsibility for it. But if she, as the daughter-in-law or the eldest sister-in-law, says something without restraint, she might offend people.
Although Shen Zhihuan is easy to talk to, he also has a bad temper.
From the fact that the Shen family was not invited to the wedding banquet this time, we knew that he was a person who would not tolerate any injustice.
"...Okay! I'll go and keep mother company." Su Lixiu was not a fool. She realized at this moment that her elder sister-in-law was always on the side of her younger sister-in-law.
Now that things have come to this, there's no point in her staying here any longer.
Su Lixiu washed her hands and turned to leave the kitchen.
The men all went to the main room to drink tea.
There were only women and children left in the yard.
Xiao Qiping was showing some picture books to Su Ziyong and Wu Xiaoliang.
Su Ziyong is already in primary school, and he can recognize most of the characters in the picture book.
Wu Xiaoliang is not much older than Xiao Qiping. Although he cannot read, he enjoys looking at the pictures in the picture books.
Zhang Fengxia was looking at her eldest grandson while chatting with Wang Chunmei, Su Hongying and Su Lihong.
Xu Jiaojiao and Zhao Xiaotao were whispering something beside them.
Seeing her eldest daughter coming out of the kitchen, Zhang Fengxia stood up, brought a stool and placed it next to her, motioning Su Lixiu to sit down.
Su Lixiu winked at Zhang Fengxia, then glanced into the room and motioned for Zhang Fengxia to come in and talk.
Zhang Fengxia told Xiao Qiping to play well with his uncle and cousin, and then followed Su Lixiu into the house.
"What's the matter? Did Liu Wenbin's mother make you angry?" Thinking that the eldest daughter had suffered some injustice in the Liu family, Zhang Fengxia looked Su Lixiu up and down nervously.
Liu Wenbin's mother was a minor cadre in a machinery factory. It was because of her that Liu Wenbin became a cadre in the machinery factory at a young age.
These days, workers who eat commercial grain are considered superior to others, not to mention cadres.
What’s more, the machinery factory is a large state-owned factory.
Liu Wenbin's mother, a woman who became a small cadre on her own and also helped her son become a cadre, can be considered a figure.
Each character has his own temperament.
A cadre family that eats commercial grain married a peasant...
This in itself is a bit far-fetched.
Liu Wenbin's mother agreed to this marriage largely because she knew that Su Lixiu had a brother who was a high-ranking officer in the army.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for a village party secretary in a small mountain village like Su Changjiang to marry his daughter into a cadre family that eats commercial grain.
Having lived half of my life, how could I not know...
Bamboo door against bamboo door, wooden door against wooden door.
But Su Lixiu was determined to marry Liu Wenbin.
A strong mother-in-law and unequal status destined her to a humble life in the future.
This is also the real reason why Su Lixiu rarely returns to her parents' home.
If Su Ziyu hadn't come in person today, it would be unknown whether Su Lixiu would be able to return to her parents' home.
"Mom, I heard from my younger sister that you and Dad are going to give my second sister-in-law a dowry of twelve thousand. Is this true?" Su Lixiu glanced in the direction of the main hall and asked in a low voice.
"That little devil girl is really quick-witted!" Zhang Fengxia cursed with a smile.
"Mom, other families only get a hundred or eighty yuan to marry a wife, but our family gets twelve thousand. Isn't that a bit too much?" Su Lixiu frowned when she saw her mother admit it.
The smile on Zhang Fengxia's face faded slightly.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Su Lixiu thought her mother had heard her, so she advised, "My second brother is the chief of the army after all. If people knew that we gave so much betrothal gifts to my second sister-in-law, outsiders might say that our Su family was trying to take advantage of us!"
"I heard from my second aunt that no one in the Shen family knew that my second brother and his wife were going to have a wedding banquet. If the Shen family didn't have a wedding banquet and only our family hosted the guests, what would the villagers say about my second brother?"
"What others say about me has nothing to do with you?" Su Ziyu pushed the door and entered the house.
When Su Ziyu learned that the matchmaker was coming to propose marriage, he asked someone to inquire about it.
Although Liu Wenbin is smart and capable, his mother is strong-willed, overbearing and arbitrary.
The Liu family is basically hers.
Money is held tightly.
To use a common saying, the wind can blow in, but even cows can’t pull it out.
Living under such a mother-in-law...
Not easy!
Upon learning of this situation, he immediately called Su Changjiang.
The pros and cons are also analyzed.
Su Changjiang shook his head after hearing this.
Later, when he came back from a mission, the wedding banquet was held.
Thinking of the Liu family's situation, he would give her some money in private every time he came back.
When he went to Liu's house in the morning, Liu Wenbin's mother followed him around, so he couldn't find any opportunity.
Now……
Su Ziyu stuffed the ten Great Unity notes in his hand directly back into his pocket.
"Second brother, this is for your own good." Su Lixiu closed the door and said in a low voice.
"Second sister-in-law can even abandon her own parents. If she gets unhappy in the future, she can just slap her butt..."
"Su Lixiu, I'm telling you, from now on...if you let me hear you say anything bad about my wife again, don't blame me, your second brother, for turning my back on you."
Su Ziyu said this with a cold face, threw the hairpin and scarf in his other hand into the trash can beside the door, and turned to leave the room.
When Su Lixiu came back, she saw that her mother, sister-in-law and younger sister all had pearl hairpins on their heads. She knew without hesitation who bought them.
I guess she must have had a share of it.
Now seeing Su Ziyu throwing the hairpin and scarf he gave her into the trash can full of cigarette butts and ashes, her face suddenly turned red.
"Mom, look at my second brother..."
"Go out and sit down!" Zhang Fengxia said with a unhappy look on her face.
Su Lixiu glanced at the pearl hairpins and silk scarves in the trash can...
