Chapter 139 Bullying



Chapter 139 Bullying

The next morning, Lin Shu did not wake up on time. Her biological clock was defeated by Lu Shaotang.

She went to bed late, felt tired and sleepy, and Lu Shaotang complained that the curtains were not thick enough and used an extra sheet to cover her. In order to make her sleep more comfortably, he did not exercise in the morning but fanned her with a palm leaf fan.

How could she not get up late?

She usually gets up at 5:30 and is full of energy, but today she got up at almost 7 o'clock and was still sleepy.

Fang Dihua and Lu Laodi made breakfast.

Lin Shu has learned to wear a thick face filter for herself. Anyway, her parents-in-law did not laugh at her and did not complain about her getting up late. As long as she was not embarrassed, there was nothing to be embarrassed about.

Well, it would be better to ignore Lu Ersao's rolling eyes.

After dinner, Lin Shu planned to go to the commune. She had to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some accessories for making clothes and some nice buttons for other people's skirts. She didn't have any suitable ones at home.

Lu Shaotang: "Daughter-in-law, please give me some money."

Lin Shu: "How much do you want?"

Does this person still know how to ask for money? She thought he never spent money.

Lu Shaotang: "Ten or twenty is fine."

Lin Shu glanced at him and asked, "What do you want to do?"

It wasn't about how he spent money. Lu Shaotang didn't seem to be interested in spending money, and he wasn't picky about food and clothing. She had to ask him if he suddenly wanted so much money.

Lu Shaotang hesitated for a moment. Should he make up an excuse to lie to her, or should he just say that he couldn't tell her?

He never told his family about the mission.

Lin Shu looked at him, his dark eyes were filled with a little smile.

Lin Shu: "Who are you going to lend it to? Or donate it to someone?"

During the time when Lu Shaotang "sacrificed" himself, she also received donations.

Lu Shaotang: "I want to deposit it in the credit union."

"What?"

Lin Shu didn't care about his spending money, and it didn't matter if he lent it to others or supported anyone, as long as she knew where it went. But when she heard him say that, she felt something was wrong.

The amount of information was a bit too much.

Why did he suddenly want to deposit money in the credit union? The family's money was basically in the county bank.

Lin Shu's mind flashed, and she whispered: "Work?"

Lu Shaotang didn't expect her to be so smart, and she smiled, and Lin Shu understood.

She looked outside and whispered, "Is there something wrong with the credit union?"

Lu Shaotang smiled but said nothing.

Lin Shu: "We found out a long time ago. Mother had long said that Accountant Zuo was not right. We even wrote a note to scare him. He was so scared that his hair fell out. He was about to become bald."

Lu Shaotang: "..."

How can you two be so brave?

The Zhou family was exposed before because his mother and daughter-in-law had a quarrel with someone in the bank.

He was not sure that there was a problem with the credit union near his home, but he had dug out nails from the bank and many credit unions. Based on the principle of keeping his home safe, he wanted to check it out.

Those latent nails were not isolated, nor were they static. They kept developing downlines, some of whom provided money, some provided materials, and some provided people.

There are too many people who are dissatisfied with society and the government, and they dare to take risks for their own selfish interests.

There are people in banks and credit unions who provide them with funds. They may have been calculated at the beginning, and then they were threatened step by step and became accomplices.

Since his wife and mother have already made a small move, Lu Shaotang will not waste it and continue to use it.

Lin Shu called Fang Dihua in, and the three of them whispered together.

Hearing his daughter-in-law say that she took out the money because she found something wrong with Accountant Zuo, he couldn't help but look at Lin Shu.

Lin Shu smiled at her.

Fang Dihua understood. The third daughter-in-law had said to her before, "Mom, he is a proletarian revolutionary fighter who believes in materialism and does not believe in ghosts and gods. If he knew about us... what would he do to us?"

Although she thought the third daughter-in-law's analogy was lame, who would compare themselves to a donkey?

But she thought it was right to listen to the third daughter-in-law, after all, the third son was very stubborn. She

admitted, "Well, I felt uneasy with the money at that time, and I had to go to the credit union every few days to check. Anyway, I felt that the accountant was not right."

As for why there was no need for any evidence, the third daughter-in-law said that women's intuition is evidence!

As expected, Lu Shaotang did not ask further questions and had no doubts. So there was no need to save money. He could just secretly investigate Accountant Zhuo with a purpose.

Lin Shu whispered, "By the way, I heard from Aunt Zhang Si that the man surnamed Song seemed to have had a blind date with Zhou Qiaoling. If the Zhou family hadn't exposed them, they would have gotten married."

The money earned by the brigades from selling food and pigs with great effort cannot be ruined by a few woodworms.

Hurry up and do labor reform!

She took out the passbook she opened at the credit union and gave it to him. There was still more than 200 yuan in it. She also deposited Chen Yanming's money into it.

Dad and Mom had to go out to do business, so the two children stayed at home obediently, playing with other children and not bothering them.

Lu Shaotang took Lin Shu to the commune by bike, and on the way he said, "By the way, buy two pounds of pork to save my wife's face, and go see my father-in-law and mother-in-law tomorrow."

Lin Shu sat in the back seat and tilted her head to look at him. This time she felt that Lu Shaotang was different.

Although he was still the same to others, he seemed to be more humorous to her?

He talked more.

Sometimes he would even play tricks on her.

"Okay, it's just in time for my second sister to take a break."

Lin Xia and the others worked too hard on weekdays, so they could take turns to have one day off a week.

When they arrived at the commune, Lu Shaotang went to the credit union and Lin Shu went to the supply and marketing cooperative.

You don't need a ticket to buy buttons and other accessories, after all, no one buys a lot of these things.

She bought buttons to match the color of the fabric, and when she saw transparent plastic buttons she bought a few more. She also bought a few spools of colored thread so she could embroider small patterns on the neckline and other places.

After buying things, she did not go to the credit union to disturb Lu Shaotang, but stopped by the commune tailor shop. When Lu Xiuxiu came home a while ago, she felt that Lu Xiuxiu was not in a good mood, so she wanted to come and take care of her.

The tailor shop is not far behind the supply and marketing cooperative.

Lu Xiuxiu has not been very happy recently. She feels that Master Guo is pulling another apprentice, Chen Jufen, to suppress her.

If she had not realized that Master Guo was deliberately suppressing her before, she would have heard a lot of things from her third aunt when she was with her and worked with her during the New Year.

Many of the things she had never heard before.

For example, she, her grandparents, her mother, her aunt and others all think that apprentices do not need to be paid for three years, and they have to serve tea and water to the master and take care of the master, and then work for the master. That's what they should do. But

the third aunt doesn't think so. She said that these masters use a little bit of technology to force others to work for them for free.

For simple clothing styles like these in the countryside, it takes at most seven or eight sessions to open a cutting and sewing class, and three months is not a short time.

If you want to learn sewing, you can't go to the master to practice operating a sewing machine. You have to learn the basics in advance.

After mastering the basics, you can mainly learn skills such as clothing pattern making and sewing.

Why do you need to study for three years?

Fashion designers graduate in three years.

The key is that what she learned was not that kind of great century-old inheritance, but just making ordinary clothes.

After returning this year, Lu Xiuxiu thought that since she learned how to make sleeves and collars from her third aunt, it would save a lot of effort, and she could help the master make clothes.

As a result, Master Guo's face fell when he saw that she could make sleeves and collars.

Not only did he not let her do the work, he also deliberately let her do chores, and then he taught Chen Jufen alone.

After that, she had no part in making clothes, and he let Chen Jufen do it.

Master Guo clearly said before that she did it straight, learned more solidly than Chen Jufen, and made things smoother.

In the past, the master praised her for her stability, her ability to sit still, her patience, and her willingness to learn without biting off more than she can chew. Now, all those good words are used to praise Chen Jufen, and instead, he speaks coldly to her, saying things like, "Ah, I can't afford to teach you, I think you'd better be my master," "You've learned from a famous teacher, I think you're better off."

Chen Jufen was not as good as her in learning, and according to Guo Tailor's intention, when he retires, Lu Xiuxiu will be in charge of the tailor shop, and Chen Jufen will help.

Now it seems that the situation is reversed, Chen Jufen is in charge, and she is helping, and she may not even be allowed to stay in the tailor shop.

If she can't stay in the tailor shop, then she...isn't it a waste of money to learn the craft here?

Lu Xiuxiu felt a little aggrieved. She obviously didn't say anything. She didn't complain about the slow teaching of the master, nor did she show off that the clothes made by the third aunt were beautiful. She just wanted to work for the tailor shop naturally.

But the master kept giving her a cold look.

"Xiuxiu, what are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and help me iron these pieces of cloth. I still have to make clothes later." Chen Jufen urged her.

Lu Xiuxiu responded, quickly poked open the stove, and ironed clothes with wet cloth.

Because the tailor shop used an old-fashioned iron, she had to concentrate fully, otherwise it would be easy to burn the clothes, so she didn't dare to think about it anymore.

While she was ironing clothes, a young man of seventeen or eighteen ran in.

Chen Jufen immediately went to meet him and said with a smile: "Guo Xinnian, I'm about to make clothes for you. How was your experience at the textile factory?"

This was the grandson of Guo Tailor. His family spent money to find connections to send him to work at the county textile factory.

Guo Xinnian bypassed her and kept his eyes on Lu Xiuxiu. He smiled and said,

"Not bad." He ran to Lu Xiuxiu and took out a handful of hawthorns from his pocket. "Xiuxiu, you like sour food the most. Here are some for you." Lu Xiuxiu was ironing clothes and said without raising her head, "I don't like sour food."

Chen Jufen hurriedly said, "I like sour food. I like sour food the most." But

Guo Xinnian ignored her and just circled around Lu Xiuxiu.

Although Chen Jufen is two years older than Lu Xiuxiu, she is half a head shorter than Lu Xiuxiu. She is neither as white nor as pretty as Lu Xiuxiu, so Guo Xinnian naturally looks down on her.

"Xiuxiu, take a break."

Lu Xiuxiu frowned, "Don't disturb me while I'm working! "

She didn't dare to be vicious, but just indicated that he was ironing clothes and couldn't be distracted.

Guo Xinnian reached out to grab the iron in her hand, "Oh, stop it."

He suddenly moved his hands and feet, scaring Lu Xiuxiu.

She dodged immediately, and the iron almost burned him.

Chen Jufen curled her lips and sneered, "She doesn't like sour food, why do you have to find her?"

The master said that only his grandson's wife could inherit the tailor shop. Now that the master doesn't like Lu Xiuxiu, doesn't he have to choose me?

Guo Xinnian looked at Lu Xiuxiu, "Xiuxiu, do you want to burn me to death?"

Lu Xiuxiu was anxious, "I'm working, why did you suddenly grab the soldering iron? It's very dangerous! If you burn the clothes, you have to pay for it!"

She was helpless with this grandson of her master. If you say he is bad, he has not done anything bad. If you say he is good, he always disturbs others from doing their work.

In her grandmother's words, he is tactless and deserves a beating.

Chen Jufen: "Xiuxiu, don't pretend. You can't see what Guo Xinnian means to you, right?"

Lu Xiuxiu looked at her in confusion, then at Guo Xinnian, "What does it mean?"

Chen Jufen: "Sour boy and spicy girl?"

What sour boy and spicy girl?

Lu Xiuxiu was even more confused. Is this a new trick of her master to punish her? Did the master want to force her to leave on her own initiative, so that he wouldn't have to teach her more skills and wouldn't have to keep her working in the sewing shop?

Did he want to kick her out?

If so, wouldn't she be at a loss?

Guo Xinnian looked at Lu Xiuxiu lovingly and raised his hand to touch her head, "Silly girl, I like you and want to date you, don't you know that?"

"Snap" Lu Xiuxiu accurately opened his hand and looked at the two of them in surprise and astonishment, "What do you mean by dating! I'm only fifteen! My grandma said that I should find a partner after I'm twenty!"

She realized it belatedly and felt humiliated.

Just like when she and a few other girls walked through a group of boys, they would whistle and cheer at them, and some even shouted something like "My dear, be my wife." Although she knew they were just cheering, she still felt ashamed and angry, and felt offended.

Although they didn't hit her, scold her, or say bad things to her, she felt very uncomfortable.

Guo Xinnian suddenly did this, and it made her feel that way.

She was very angry!

She wanted to use a hot iron to burn his mouth!

Seeing her blushing cheeks and slightly bulging chest rising and falling, Guo Xinnian felt itchy in his heart and said with a smile: "That's okay, let's date first and get married when we're twenty."

"My grandfather said that if you become my wife, the tailor shop will be passed on to you."

Lu Xiuxiu's face became even redder. Tailor Guo has been suppressing her hard recently. Was it for this reason?

So disgusting!

She suddenly raised her hand and threw the iron into the stove. "Ah——"

She didn't know how to curse, and didn't know how to lose her temper, so she clenched her fist and screamed loudly.

Guo Xinnian and Chen Jufen were startled by her.

Guo Xinnian even wanted to go up and pull her to stop her from getting excited.

Lu Xiuxiu thought he was trying to be a hooligan to her, so she closed her eyes and waved her hands to hit him.

Guo Xinnian was not as tall as her, and was hit on the face by a claw, which made him gasp in pain.

"Xiuxiu, Xiuxiu, don't go crazy." Guo Xinnian was also anxious, and asked Chen Jufen to help him control Xiuxiu, so that she would not go crazy and touch the stove or the kettle.

Lin Shu happened to come over and saw a man trying to hug Lu Xiuxiu from the front, and the other female apprentice was about to hug Lu Xiuxiu from the back. She immediately got angry and picked up the long wooden ruler on the sewing table and hit Guo Xinnian in the face.

"You little idiot, you are a hooligan, right!"

"I will beat you to death!"

She beat Guo Xinnian and Chen Jufen at the same time.

"Stop hitting her, stop hitting her!"

Guo Xinnian and Chen Jufen shouted, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, I'm not being a hooligan, it's just that Xiuxiu is too excited."

When Lu Xiuxiu saw Lin Shu, she immediately ran over and cried, "Auntie, they bullied me."

Lin Shu hated to see a beautiful little sister cry the most. Seeing Lu Xiuxiu crying so aggrieved, what else could she say?

It must be these two bastards who bullied her niece!

"What are you doing? I'm not around for a while, and you guys are making trouble for me! Lu Xiuxiu, you don't want to do it anymore, right?" Guo Caixiu, whose hair and beard are all gray, trotted over from outside. Because of making clothes for many years, his neck was leaning forward and his back was hunched.

Lu Xiuxiu calmed down at this time and was a little scared when she saw Guo Caixiu.

Lin Shu told her not to worry, "Your uncle is here too."
