"Well, you go back and ask your mother how much the betrothal gift will be, two hundred or three hundred, let your mother name an amount. As long as your mother agrees to let your sister marry into the family this year, the eighty yuan that your family owes to the team and the Su family will be paid by me." Boss Zhu patted his chest and expressed his opinion.
Old Mrs. Yang couldn't help but gasp.
Two hundred? Three hundred? Famine...
Eighty percent of foreign debt...
And a watch.
What the hell! Is Zhu Dazhuang crazy or has that sick guy drugged him with some kind of magic potion?
A few dozen kilograms of mixed grain flour is fine, but what about the foreign debt? That's eighty yuan, not eight yuan.
There are also watches. Not to mention the expensive ones, even the cheapest ladies' watch would cost at least sixty or seventy yuan, and you need an industrial ticket.
A few dozen here and a hundred there, it might cost more than 500 yuan.
These days, good fat meat is only 55 cents a pound. How much fat meat can you buy with 500 yuan?
After the bill was settled, Old Lady Yang was completely stunned. She stared blankly at the tall and burly Boss Zhu. A thought flashed through her mind, which was filled with fifty Big Unity bills.
Shen Zhilan, who was standing by, was also stunned by the big pie thrown by Boss Zhu.
But when I think of the gift I received when I got married...
Shen Zhilan felt a sour feeling in her chest.
Short-lived ghost! He deliberately made her unhappy!
"Aunt, loyal daughter-in-law, as long as you help me get this done, it will be easy for your family to eat meat in the future." Boss Zhu looked at Old Lady Yang and Shen Zhilan, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, with deep meaning.
"Nephew, look at what you said. Even if you don't help me, I will still take your lifelong affairs very seriously." Old Mrs. Yang said with a smile.
"Then I'll have to trouble you to take care of this matter," said Boss Zhu with a smile.
"Then you guys are busy, I'll go back first." He had said everything that needed to be said, and there was no need to stay, so Boss Zhu was about to leave.
"Look, it's getting dark. Come in quickly. I'll ask Sanhong to cook some dishes. When Zhongyong and Zhongyi come back, you three brothers can have a few drinks together." Old Mrs. Yang said hastily.
As he spoke, he called Yang Sanhong, who was doing nothing in the house, to come out and cook.
After a while, a round-faced girl wearing a floral dress and two pigtails came out of the house yawning.
"Mom, don't we have the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law..."
Yang Sanhong spoke with an unhappy look on her face, but the moment she raised her head, her pouting lips curled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Brother Dazhuang, why are you here?" Yang Sanhong said shyly, twisting her pigtails in front of her chest.
The corners of Shen Zhilan's mouth twitched uncontrollably.
Her sister-in-law has really inherited the old lady Yang's true qualities. She changes her attitude faster than turning the pages of a book.
An 18-year-old girl can't do work in the fields, and she just stays at home doing nothing. She doesn't know how to do any work, just like a rich daughter of a landlord.
He spends all day dreaming of becoming a phoenix and rising to the top of a tree, but he never takes a piss to look at himself.
It is truly a daydream for a pheasant to want to turn into a phoenix.
Boss Zhu glanced at Yang Sanhong, and finally set his sights on Old Lady Yang. "Aunt, I have something to do at home, so I'll go back first. When Zhongyong Zhongyi is free another day, I'll set up two tables and everyone can come and have a couple of drinks."
After saying that, he turned around and walked away in big strides.
Looking at Boss Zhu's hurried back, Yang Sanhong was so angry that she stomped her feet on the spot.
"Why don't you go and cook? Wait for me to serve you." Old Mrs. Yang glared at Shen Zhilan.
The Yang family is so unlucky to have such a lazy guy with no vision.
"I'll go now!" Shen Zhilan quickly shrank her neck and went into the kitchen.
"Lazy!" Old Mrs. Yang spat and pulled the pouting Yang Sanhong to her room.
Dinner is being cooked here in the smoke and fire. .Shen 's family.
After dinner, the family of three took a shower and sat under the grape trellis at the kitchen door to cool off.
"Third sister, do you think there is really a Chang'e on the moon?" Little Weidong held his chin with both hands, staring at the moon in the sky with his round eyes without blinking.
Xiaopang said that his grandfather said there was Chang'e in the moon, but he had never seen the shadow of Chang'e in the moon.
"There should be!" Shen Zhihuan waved a bamboo fan to drive away the mosquitoes around Li Qiuhua and Xiao Weidong's feet.
Although there was mugwort burning nearby, there were still some vicious mosquitoes that were not afraid of death and came closer.
"Does Chang'e live alone on the moon?" Xiao Weidong suddenly asked.
"There should be a little rabbit accompanying her!" Shen Zhihuan looked up at the moon.
"Chang'e is staying on the moon alone, so who will help her keep track of work points?" Little Weidong turned his head and looked at Shen Zhihuan anxiously.
Record work points...
Help Chang'e...
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
“…” Shen Zhihuan was speechless.
"Third sister..." After waiting for a long time without getting an answer, Xiao Weidong pulled Shen Zhihuan's arm and shook it.
"The entire moon belongs to Chang'e, so she doesn't need anyone to help her keep track of work points." Shen Zhihuan made up a random remark.
"Then isn't Chang'e the landlord?" Little Weidong widened his eyes.
“……” Shen Zhihuan held his forehead with his hand.
She is old!
I can't keep up with this little guy's train of thought.
"Zhihuan, go and try it." Li Qiuhua bit off the thread and handed the freshly sewn clothes to Shen Zhihuan.
"Yeah!" Shen Zhihuan stood up, took the clothes and went into the house.
After a while, Shen Zhihuan came out wearing new clothes.
Under the dim candlelight, the pink color like the peach blossoms in March made Shen Zhihuan's cheeks look whiter and tenderer.
Although her figure was still thin and skinny, it was much better than when she first arrived.
The slender waist is so flat that you can even see a slight undulation.
This is also what Shen Zhihuan is most satisfied with.
"Third sister's new dress is so beautiful! It's even prettier than the long skirts worn by the educated youth!" Little Weidong jumped up and clapped his hands.
"Only Third Sister's new clothes are beautiful. Isn't Third Sister beautiful?" Shen Zhihuan teased Xiao Weidong with a smile.
"Third sister is the most beautiful! Third sister is much more beautiful than new clothes." Xiao Weidong said hurriedly.
"Little thing, how much honey water did you drink today? Your mouth is so sweet." Shen Zhihuan smiled and scratched little Weidong's grinning mouth.
"A bowl!" Little Weidong jumped and stretched out a finger.
"Stop dancing. You won't have hot water for a bath when you sweat." Li Qiuhua slapped the little Weidong, who had never been obedient, in annoyance.
The water used for drying in the afternoon was used up for bathing in the evening.
If you want to wash it again, you can only boil water.
These days, unless it was the coldest time of the year, many men in the production team would go to the river to take a bath.
There are even a small number of women who do not have wells at home. In order to save trouble, they make an appointment to bathe in the river a little further downstream. After bathing, they can also wash their clothes at the same time.
It not only saves the time of fetching water from the village, but also saves the time of going to the river to wash clothes.
"Oh!" Xiao Weidong immediately became obedient.
