Wang Taozhi felt a little embarrassed and annoyed by what she said, so she picked up the scissors and drove her away with her arms.
"Go away. It's fine if you can't help, but you're just getting in the way. Your dad bought these pears especially for your aunt. They cost over a dollar, but you should eat them first."
Dongbao, people say that if you eat more grapes during pregnancy, your baby will have big eyes. Unfortunately, we can't buy them here at all, even raisins are hard to come by.
I wrote to your second sister. She knows a lot of people. Ask her to get some for you. It will be good for the child."
He Ruixue nodded, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
"What are you thanking me for? You're having a baby, and the whole family is happy. Your mother is making shoes for you next door. She said your feet will definitely swell up, and leather shoes will squeeze your feet, so you need to wear shoes with thick soles.
She was worried she didn't have enough strength, so she asked your brother to help. Don't be fooled by his appearance, the insoles of his shoes are very strong, and I guarantee you won't get your feet hurt even if you walk all the way."
Wang Taozhi cut the cloth open, and a few thread ends appeared at the broken parts. She collected them all and put them in a box next to her.
In an era of material scarcity, thread ends are valuable and should not be wasted.
He Ruixue was surrounded by the whole family. She felt embarrassed at first and kept refusing.
But Zhao Meiya insisted, and after a few days she got used to it.
According to local customs, the third month of pregnancy cannot be announced to anyone.
So neither the neighbors around her nor her colleagues at work knew the news, and their attitude towards her remained the same, which made her feel relieved.
When He Ruixue got home from work that day, she heard a quarrel in the yard. He Xiaojie's voice was very prominent. "Mom, that's what you like. How can you force your preferences on me? This is a new society. I want to be free to fall in love."
"You're shameless. What's the point of liking someone or not in life? Your former classmate, Lingzi, married the guy she liked, but now she's been treated terribly.
Let’s not talk about the distant past. Sun Lai Di was determined to marry her man and even got pregnant before the wedding. What happened?
"What about Li Duoliang? He just looks for what he likes."
"Oh, that's because he has no choice at all. It's a blessing that someone doesn't despise him. How can he be picky about others?"
Wang Taozhi scoffed at young people's love. "Look at Zhao Yong. Wasn't it your grandmother who introduced him to her? They fell in love right away. How wonderful is their life after marriage?"
"My brother also found his own wife. Could it be that Mom is not satisfied with her sister-in-law?"
Wang Taozhi was choked. Her daughter-in-law was pregnant, so of course she couldn't accept what he said.
Besides, she had some complaints about Lu Lan at first, but after getting along with her for a long time, she realized the advantages of a gentle girl, who at least would not contradict her.
She glared at me, "You are deliberately trying to piss me off, right? You are just like Xiaoyou, both of you are troublesome. As soon as life gets a little easier, you start to make trouble. You two debt collectors."
He Xiaoai came over, holding the candied dates in her hand and passed them to her mouth, saying softly, "Mom, don't be angry. My aunt said that eating sweet things makes you feel good."
Wang Taozhi immediately smiled, bit half of the piece, and patted her head, "Our Xiaoai is really considerate. Don't learn from your brothers and sisters in the future."
"Okay, I promise to be obedient and not make Mom angry in the future."
"A flatterer."
When He Xiaojie saw the affectionate scene between mother and daughter, she rolled her eyes and grabbed the bag on the table and was about to walk out.
Wang Taozhi chased after him and asked, "Where are you going?"
"I went to buy some salt, but grandma said we didn't have enough."
"Wait a minute, get me another bottle of vinegar, and remember to ask someone to give you more."
Wang Taozhi hung a plastic bottle of vinegar on the handlebars of the bicycle, told her to find someone she knew, and taught her how to say it.
He Xiaojie became impatient, grabbed the handlebars, pushed forward hard, and quickly drove out of the yard.
"This child is becoming more and more disobedient."
Wang Taozhi returned to the house and added a few more pieces of firewood to the brazier. When she saw the fire was burning again, she asked He Ruixue to sit down.
Without waiting for her to ask, he pulled her aside and told her the cause and effect of the quarrel.
Seeing that her sister-in-law was pregnant, Wang Taozhi became even more anxious about her daughter's lifelong affairs and did not sleep well for several nights.
I once dreamed that she had become an old maid and no one wanted her. Her later years were miserable and she froze to death on the street and no one came to collect her body.
She felt that it was a warning from God, and immediately asked Li Duoliang to introduce a few younger sons from his family who would not be a burden.
Don’t say that having many friends is good. Even though she has high standards, there are people who meet her requirements.
The man's name is Xiao Qing. He is from a family with two working parents. One of his parents works in an oil press workshop and the other in a furniture factory. They are both high-ranking employees. The couple's combined salary is about 90,000 yuan.
However, his family was large. The couple had seven children, three sons and four daughters. The whole family lived in three rooms allocated to them in the early years, and there was no room to turn around.
The eldest and second sons of the Xiao family were married and each had a room of their own. With several grandchildren, the house was even more crowded.
The little girl and the little son sleep with their parents, but they are almost adults and are about to get married, so they are worried.
Let's buy a house. There are no single rooms for sale around here. If there are any, they are too small and there is no place to put the stove or something. If I want to buy two rooms, my two sons don't want to.
Xiao Qing has been learning the craft from a barber for two years and will soon be able to become a master. He is tall and handsome.
His family doesn't have high expectations of him, and he doesn't have to support his parents in their old age. He has a good temper and is even a little indecisive.
He Xiaojie will be able to be the head of the household after she gets married and live in her own house, so she is very confident.
"That sounds good. Has Xiaojie met him?"
