Chapter 32 Best Friend



Chapter 32 Best Friend

The next evening after work, Mrs. Wang went to the Chang family and invited them to find time to go to the Lu family to thank them.

But Old Chang refused with a sullen face.

He really sympathized with the Lu family, but the Lu family would not really sympathize with him, so why humiliate himself?

Mrs. Wang was puzzled, "No matter what you think of them, they helped a lot and saved our child. Shouldn't we go to thank them?"

Mrs. Chang said sarcastically, "Didn't you go last night?"

You licker!

Why didn't you come and invite us to join you last night?

Seeing how stubborn they were, Mrs. Wang was too lazy to say anything. If they were not related, who would be willing to pay attention to them?

Wang Pozi wanted to send a hen to the Lu family, but was afraid that Fang Dihua would not want it, so she killed one herself and stewed it with mushroom vermicelli. She also added two pounds of flour to steam white flour buns. The next night, she took her son and grandson to the Lu family to express her gratitude.

Fang Dihua declined, but she invited the three of them to have dinner together. Since then ,

Hu Zi has become close to Tiantian and Panpan, and likes to play with them. The news that Hu Zi and Chang Xiaogang were missing and found was considered to have saved Lu Shaocai. Because these two days the villagers have been laughing at Lu Shaocai's miserly behavior, not giving his third brother and second grandmother much paper money, and buying a lot of fat chickens and ducks to curry favor with the leaders, but in the end no one came, and all the trouble fell on his relatives. Now the brazer is a hot topic of gossip in the village. Everyone is scolding the brazer who stole the child, and at the same time strengthening the education of their own children. "If you run around again, let the brazer catch you!" "If you don't listen, I'll send you to the brazer and lock you up in the big well!" Because of this incident, not only Fang Dihua and Old Man Lu became more prestigious in the village, but even Lin Shu's reputation improved greatly. In the past, everyone thought she was timid, coy, and not generous. She would cry and sulk. Apart from being pretty, she had a negative image. Now, they think Lin Shu is pretty, smart, kind, gentle... all kinds of beautiful words start to be associated with her. Lin Shu was born with a slender waist, beautiful hip curves, and long legs. She twists and turns naturally when she walks. She herself doesn't feel it, but others will feel that she twists and turns. When she was at her parents' home, the hypocrites would scold her for being coquettish, vixen, and flirtatious, and twisting her butt to hook up with men. When she was at her husband's home, no one dared to scold her because of Fang Dihua's toughness, but there were always people who pointed fingers at her and said she was flirtatious. Now, no one dares to scold Lin Shu in person, and no one dares to gossip in public. Who is not afraid of being beaten by Fang Dihua? The beauty-loving Heizhuang Huahua and Honghong couldn't help but want to imitate Lin Shu's way of walking. They thought that Panpan's mother was not only beautiful, but also had a nice voice and a beautiful walking posture! This day was the day that Old Man Lu and Doctor Yan had an appointment to go to the county hospital. He was waiting for a car to the county early in the morning. Old Chang was just going to work on his private plot and saw Old Man Lu standing there. If it were in the past, he would definitely go over and comfort him with something hypocritical like "Take care of your condolences" and think more positively. At this moment, he felt resentful towards Old Man Lu and wanted to avoid him, but when he thought of his grandson, he felt that he should say a few words to mock Old Man Lu. He wanted to say something like "A blessing in disguise" or " Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west". "Brother, are you waiting for the bus? Going to the county?" Old Man Lu glanced at him and said, "Yeah." After thinking for a while, he still showed his concern out of courtesy, "Is the child okay?" Although the other party may not care about his concern, or even think that he has ulterior motives, this is how he deals with things. If there is something wrong in the people he knows, he will definitely ask about it. As for whether others think he is sincere or fake, it depends on the daily relationship. Old Changtou: "It's fine, just a flesh wound, just apply a few patches of medicine." But in fact it is very serious. The doctor said that there is a high probability that the child will be disabled and may even be lame. It's okay, just let the child go out less in the future, otherwise what can happen? Isn't it happy to do what you want even if the son is gone? Old man Lu was genuinely happy for his child, "The child is blessed." Old Changtou said, "Yes, good people are rewarded, and your ancestors have accumulated virtues." Your son is gone, and your ancestors did not accumulate virtues. But old man Lu did not feel his sarcasm, because he always believed that his ancestors had accumulated virtues, so it was okay for him to beat up the local tyrants, and it was okay for his third son, and now the third son's wife is getting better and better. The two chatted for a few words, and old Changtou watched old man Lu get in the car before he went to his private land with a pout. Damn old man, why are you going to the county? Didn't you just go there a few days ago? Why are you going again? Did you get a serious illness? As a person, you still have to accumulate virtues, otherwise your daughter-in-law will have to make a fuss to remarry right after your son dies. At this moment , Lin Shu was finishing her mother-in-law's shoes at home. She had already stuffed her own cotton trousers with cotton and sewed them again. The remaining cotton was not wasted, so she lengthened and widened the cotton coats for Tiantian and Panpan. The children had grown up, and last year's cotton coats would be too small for this winter. After finishing the cotton coats, she continued to make shoes for Fang Dihua. She had already sewed the uppers, and she could just put the uppers on after sewing the soles. She was using an awl to poke the soles when she heard someone outside calling her, "Sister Lin Shu, are you home?" Lin Shu heard the voice and answered casually, "Yes." But she was thinking, who is this? She has now integrated the original owner's memories very well, and immediately recognized who the person was. The person was called Lin Aidi, a cousin within the fifth degree of mourning of the original owner's family. She was not from her uncle's family, but from a great-grandfather. Because they are also related by the first wife and the second wife, although they share the same great-grandfather, the relationship between the two families is average. However, the younger generation does not care about the grudges of the elders, especially girls of the same age who only play with those they get along with. The original owner had a sensitive temperament and didn't have many playmates when she was a child. Even her two biological sisters could not help but love her and annoy her at times. Now that they are married and married, they only help her when they see each other from a distance.

The relationship between Lin Aidi and the original owner was more subtle.

Lin Aidi was not as pretty as the original owner, and could only be considered an ordinary person. However, she grew up with the original owner and had heard many adults criticize and comment on the original owner,

such as "The third daughter of the Lin family is really no good, and no one will want her

with such a bad temper", "She is as weak as a bean sprout, and she walks in a sloppy manner. She will definitely be beaten and scolded when she goes to her husband's house",

"She was beautiful and could be a concubine of a landlord in the past, but no one wants her now, and her face is not worth eating, so no one wants her like this"...

and some people maliciously scolded Lin Shu as a vixen and a slut.

After hearing so many words like this, Lin Aidi wanted to be more dignified and virtuous in front of Lin Shu. She would never let anyone describe her as a sly or coquettish person. She also wanted to show that she was diligent, strong, and good at housekeeping, and she had to let her future mothers-in-law see her good side.

Compared with Lin Shu, she really performed well.

When she was dating, there were also old women who came to see Lin Shu, but Grandma Lin looked down on those people, so Lin's mother's words would not count, so Lin Shu's side would naturally not work out.

Those old women would not say that it was Grandma Lin who rejected them, but only that they looked down on Lin Shu, which gave Lin Aidi great confidence.

Especially among them, there was a young man with good conditions. He was the leader of the militia in his 20s, and his father was the production leader of the village.

Lin Aidi was very satisfied and showed off to Lin Shu a lot at that time.

However, she was not just showing off her happiness after getting married. She also sincerely hoped that Lin Shu would find a good husband, and she was busy introducing her to potential partners.

One of them was a male teacher in their village, a poet with literary talent. Well, he was the father of the heroine in the original book and the husband of Lin Shu's sister-in-law.

As a result, Grandma Lin naturally rejected him, and she was quite regretful.

Later, Grandma Lin decided to marry Lu Shaotang. Lin Aidi often complained for Lin Shu. She kept telling Lin Shu that soldiers were all rough, bad-tempered and would beat people. She also said that anyone in the village who married a retired soldier would be beaten all day long.

Lin Aidi said that other sisters-in-law and aunts also said a lot, and even Lin's mother was worried, which scared the original owner enough that she had a shadow on Lu Shaotang, whom she had never met.

Lin Aidi was afraid that the original owner would be beaten, but she also secretly wanted to see the original owner being beaten, so that Lin Shu would not live as well as she did, and she could comfort Lin Shu.

In the first few days after the original owner got married, she ran over to see her every day.

As a result, Lu Shaotang returned to the team after three days, and she began to feel unfair for the original owner, thinking that the original owner was equivalent to being a widow.

The original owner was happy and felt that it was just right that Lu Shaotang was not at home.

The original owner thought Lin Aidi was a good person, but Lin Shu thought that this person was a little... subtle.

It's not that she's bad, she's not, and she never hoped that the original owner would be unlucky, it's just... how to put it.

She treats you well, but only as long as you can't be better than her.

If you're better than her, she'll start to feel jealous and unbalanced, hoping that you're a little worse than her so that she can continue to play the role of a comforter.

The original owner married Lu Shaotang, whose family conditions were better than her husband's. Lu Shaotang was taller, more handsome, and more prestigious than her husband, and he also earned more. Lin Aidi was immediately unbalanced.

Thanks to Lu Shaotang not coming home, the original owner didn't have to show off her affection, so Lin Aidi was more balanced.

- Although her husband is a little better off than me, her husband is not at home, and she is a widow, so she's still not as good as me.

In short, Lin Aidi often came to the original owner to seek a sense of superiority. Of course, she cared about him, and you can't say that she didn't really care about the original owner. When the original owner had problems or felt uncomfortable, she would comfort him.

Lin Shu has already set her current tone: lying down, being weak, not doing heavy work, and relying on her parents-in-law and children to win.

- When there is something, the mother-in-law will come forward, when there are people, the mother-in-law will scold, and when there is a fight, the mother-in-law will beat her. She only needs to live a happy life every day, not getting angry with people, and not quarreling with people.

She can even cheat Zhao Meifeng with a smile, so how can she quarrel with Lin Aidi, the best friend of the original owner?

"Sister, come in quickly, you don't go to work today?" Lin Shu got up and welcomed Lin Aidi in.

Lin Aidi was carrying a small basket with a blue and white flowered bundle on it. She hugged Lin Shu affectionately when she saw her. "Hey, I don't work. You know I just cook at home every day. I wanted to come a long time ago, but my parents-in-law got sick one after another, and you know how busy your brother-in-law is at work, so I didn't have time to come."

In fact, she had just come a few days ago.

In the two days when the news of Lu Shaotang came back, the original owner's family, elder sister-in-law, younger sister-in-law and other relatives came to express their condolences. Fang Dihua refused to accept the reality and thought that it didn't count without seeing the corpse, so she sent all the relatives away.

Of course, Lin Aidi also came, she wanted to comfort the original owner's little sister.

The original owner was angry because someone said that her husband was not sad and came back, but she comforted him, saying "It's not your fault. He didn't come home for so many years. It's normal for him to have no feelings." The original owner was very grateful to her.

Lin Shu exchanged a few words with her. Lin Aidi

gave egg cake to Tiantian and Panpan. She never came empty-handed. She either brought two handfuls of peanuts or two steamed buns. Even two scallions and two heads of garlic were gifts.

This time she brought an egg cake, two pumpkins, and two eggplants.

"Hey, sister, don't be sad." She heard that Father Lu had already repaired Lu Shaotang's tomb.

Lin Shu: "I'm taking care of these two children. I'm fine. I'm not sad."

Lin Aidi glanced at her. "Your parents-in-law don't dislike you, do they? Hey, you know that family, right?" She mentioned a person she knew with the original owner. "Her husband is gone. Her mother-in-law scolds her every day for being a bad luck and killing her husband. She's having a miserable life."

Lin Shu shook her head. "No, my parents-in-law treat me well. If someone talks nonsense, my mother-in-law will fight back. Later, the old Chang family Did you hear about it?"

Lin Aidi: "Oh, oh, I think I heard that your mother-in-law had a fight with someone. Your mother-in-law is really powerful. You sisters-in-law are all oppressed by her. Hey, she always scolds you. You have the worst life."

Lin Shu: "No, my mother-in-law is very sensible. She never scolds anyone, let alone beats anyone. She protects me and even buys me ice cream when she goes to the county."

Lin Aidi: "..." She looked at Lin Shu seriously.

Lin Shu is beautiful, she knew this since she was a child, but Lin Shu at that time was timid and cowardly, always sulking, she couldn't relax, and her complexion was not good.

Now Lin Shu is really in good complexion!

Her skin is fair with a rosy glow, and so clean that it seems unreal. Anyone who is exposed to the wind and sun will have spots or something, but she doesn't have a single blemish.

A pair of big, watery eyes reminded her of the spring water in the mountains. They were so bright and clean.

The slightly upturned corners of her eyes made her feel that Lin Shu was very charming when she smiled. No matter men or women, they could be charmed by her.

Anyway, there was no trace of misery on her face.

Lin Aidi seemed to hear the disappointment in her heart.

Her husband was dead, how could her parents-in-law and sisters-in-law not give her a cold shoulder?

She sighed, "You won't be able to send back wages in the future, so your sisters-in-law will definitely have something against you, and they won't be as generous as before."

Lin Shu: "No, my eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law are very good to me. My eldest sister-in-law never lets me do any work. Look at the vegetable beds in the yard. She doesn't let me do anything from trimming the vegetable beds, carrying water, to fertilizing the fields. She only lets me pick vegetables and cook. My second sister-in-law even gave me fabric for two pairs of shoes and asked me to make shoes. "

Is it true? Your second sister-in-law is not planning to use you as a needlework girl all day long? How miserable you are in her hands, she has said a lot about her before. Maybe she asked you to do it for her, and you remembered it wrongly?"

Lin Shu smiled and said, "How can I remember my own business wrongly? The shoes are on my feet."

Lin Aidi could tell at a glance that they were new shoes made by Lin Shu, and they had been worn twice at most.

She looked at Lin Shu in surprise, "You... It seems that your brother-in-law is gone, and they sympathize with you, but you have to be careful, it may only be like this for the first two days, and they will definitely dislike you in the future, hey, you will be miserable then."

Lin Shu: "......?" "

That's not right, the original owner's best friend has changed.

Why is she so miserable when she presses her head so hard?

When Lin Aidi had chatted with the original owner before, she had never pressed her head like this, and the original owner was miserable. Why was she pressed on the head when she came here?

Lin Aidi believed that Lin Shu was afraid of being embarrassed, so she deliberately reported the good news but not the worries.

She said with concern: "Sister, don't pretend to be strong. We grew up together, don't we know each other? Your mother-in-law used to scold you all day long, your eldest sister-in-law also bullied you, your second sister-in-law even more, and your eldest cousin's sister-in-law next door also bullied you. Have you forgotten how miserable your life was?"

Lin Shu said lightly: "I didn't think it through before, but now I look at those women who still have to work hard in the fields under the scorching sun, and I think I'm really happy, not miserable at all." She continued: "Compared with those women who were beaten by men and mothers-in-law, I am really happy. My father-in-law has a good temper, and my mother-in-law and sister-in-law protect me. I am content and happy." Many women in

the village, such as Hu Zi's mother and Chang Er's wife, had been beaten by men and mothers-in-law, but the original owner had not.

Lin Aidi, who had just quarreled with her mother-in-law and was slapped by her mother-in-law and kicked twice by her husband, suddenly felt that she was shot.

She is so miserable!

She has been so miserable recently!

When her mother-in-law was sick, she took care of her, sent meals to the kang, washed clothes, and did all the housework, but her mother-in-law was still not satisfied. She found fault with her all day long and complained to her father-in-law and son about her abuse.

Her husband was obviously submissive to her in bed, but he refused to admit it when he turned against her and even beat her.

Wow, she is so miserable.

She originally wanted to come to Lin Shu to find some balance - although she was beaten by her husband and mother-in-law, Lin Shu's husband died, her mother-in-law scolded her, and her sisters-in-law bullied her, which must be worse than her.

It's really too miserable.

In this comparison, she doesn't look so miserable, and even seems pretty good.

But how can Lin Shu not look miserable?

How can Lin Shu not be miserable when her husband dies?

Especially since her parents-in-law have always been proud of Lu Shaotang, and now that Lu Shaotang is gone, they don't think that she is a jinx? Don't they blame her?

Just when Lin Aidi was feeling uncomfortable, Tiantian and Panpan came running back from outside like two young swallows, "Mom, mom! The branch secretary has brought many cadres to see you."

Lin Shu: "See me?"
