Chapter 58 Hookup



Chapter 58 Hooking

Up Fang Dihua wouldn’t normally be like this. If it was before, she would say that Cuicui should read the comic book together, but today she just lost her temper with Zhou Qiaoling and she couldn’t get used to Lu Ersao.

She thought that she had told the second wife about the shoes, and the second wife should understand and live a good life in the future without worrying about trivial matters, but it seems that they are incorrigible.

She and Lu Laodi have been keeping accounts for the family expenses.

They know how much work points and dividends the first and second wives earn, and how much food the third wife eats.

She took out the food money of the third wife and put it in the public bank to subsidize the family expenses.

The money from the public school is used to repair the house, see doctors for the family, buy cloth, matches, salt and other daily necessities, pay for the children's school fees, and pay for the four social affairs in the family.

She also gives money to her daughter-in-law twice a year, once during the Chinese New Year and once in the middle of the year. They can spend the money as they like, buy things for the family, buy things for herself or give to her parents' home, and no one cares.

Lin Shu is supported by a man's money, so naturally she gives more.

Fang Dihua asked herself that she did not use the money from the public school to support the third son's wife and children, but used the third son's money to buy things, and the other children also benefited from it.

In the past, the extra flour, maltose, meat, eggs, etc. bought by the family were not only for the two children, but also for all the children in the family.

Why does the second brother's family always act like they are using money to subsidize the third brother's family?

The men outside heard Fang Dihua talking loudly, and watched Second Sister-in-law Lu return to the west room with her head down and her face covered. They didn't take it seriously.

Men don't interfere with women's affairs. This is their family's habit.

Because if you interfere, you will be the one who suffers in the end.

Besides, Big Brother Lu is scolded by his parents all day long. He is thick-skinned and doesn't think it's a big deal to be scolded by his mother. Second

Brother Lu doesn't care at all.

Lin Shu cleaned up the dishes and set the table, and Lu Ping and others came to help.

Xu Xiaoyou was the most sensitive. She was a little nervous when she heard Fang Dihua get angry. She was very cautious and even walked on tiptoe.

Panpan and Tiantian knew that grandma was not scolding them, but they stopped laughing and went to the table to share their chopsticks and wait for the meal.

Big Brother Lu was very obedient and did not dare to ask Dad if he wanted to drink two cups.

When they sat down to eat, Second Sister-in-law Lu had not come yet.

Old Father Lu said to Second Brother Lu: "Call your wife to eat." Second Brother

Lu got up and called, "Dad is calling you to eat."

Second Sister-in-law Lu, who was lying on the kang, was originally waiting for someone from the family to call her, and then she would go down the hill to eat, but Second Brother Lu made her so angry as soon as he opened his mouth.

Why is this man like a piece of wood!

What do you mean Dad called me to eat? Can't you just call me to eat?

Don't you care about me at all?

When she got angry, she said, "If she's not hungry, she won't eat. You guys eat it." Second

Brother Lu took it seriously and turned away. Second Sister-in-law

Lu: "!!!"

You're going to piss me off!

Second Brother Lu went back to eat and said to Old Man Lu, "She said she's not hungry."

Old Man Lu: "..."

Fang Dihua: "..." Damn it, if I hadn't found you a wife, you'd be a bachelor all your life!

She was just angry, so of course she wouldn't give in to her daughter-in-law. If she didn't want to eat, then she didn't eat. That's because she wasn't hungry. If she was hungry, she would eat.

In the evening, Second Sister-in-law Lu only cooked salted vegetable stewed eggs for adults, but no egg custard for children. Lin Shu used boiling water to make a large teacup of egg drop soup for them.

Just drink half a bowl each.

When she was pouring for Lu Ping, he stopped her and said, "Aunt, I'm older now. You don't need to give me so much. Half is enough."

Lin Shu still gave it to him. Basically, every child got the same amount, so she was considered good.

Lu Cuicui looked at her teacup and stared at the bowls of several people to see if she gave more to Tiantian and Panpan.

She wanted the last one because she thought the eggs at the bottom were thicker.

As a result, Lin Shu poured it for her first, and finally poured it all to Xu Xiaoyou.

Lu Cuicui pursed her lips instantly. It would be fine to give more to Tiantian and Panpan, because they were her family, but what right did Xu Xiaoyou have to give?

She was an outsider!

Xu Xiaoyou was also a little spoiled. At home, she never got to eat what her younger brother ate. When she

came to her aunt's house, she ate the same food as Tiantian and Panpan. She felt a little guilty and didn't dare to eat.

She was afraid that if she ate too much, Fang Dihua would dislike her, so she wanted to eat half of the rice every time, but Lin Shu could always make accurate judgments and give her a piece of rice that was just enough for her to eat.

Lin Shu stuffed her with a thin noodle roll, "Eat it."

Tiantian also smiled at her, and said in a sweet voice, "Sister Youyou, eat it quickly."

Xu Xiaoyou ate happily, wow, so sweet, so fragrant, so soft, and so delicious.

Lu Cuicui lowered her head slightly and glared at Xu Xiaoyou fiercely, wanting to throw her out.

Why did she eat her own family's rice!

Xu Xiaoyou was very sensitive and immediately noticed the malicious gaze. She looked back timidly and met Lu Cuicui's gloomy eyes. She was frightened and immediately lowered her head to eat the steamed buns silently, not daring to pick up the stewed eggs.

Lu Cuicui thought that no one knew about her little action, but she didn't know that Lin Shu, Fang Dihua, Lu's father, Lu's elder brother, as well as Panpan and Tiantian had all noticed it.

Panpan asked curiously, "Sister Cuicui, are your eyes sore? Then put some erythromycin eye ointment."

Lu Cuicui immediately said, "It's just a little sand in it, it's okay."

After dinner, Lu Ping led his brothers and sisters to look for cicada monkeys as usual. Lu Cuicui also went out. She turned back and invited Xu Xiaoyou, "Sister Xiaoyou, let's go and look together."

Xu Xiaoyou shuddered and sat on a small stool to help Fang Dihua and Lin Shu wash the dishes. "Thank you, Sister Cuicui, I'm scared when it gets dark, I won't go."

Lu Cuicui invited her twice more.

Xu Xiaoyou couldn't bear it and didn't know how to refuse. Although she was young, she had a feeling that if an adult invited you again and again and you didn't agree, the other party would be angry.

Fang Dihua said, "If she doesn't want to go, then she won't go. You guys go."

Lu Cuicui then pouted and ran away.

Fang Dihua did not avoid Xu Xiaoyou at all and said to Lin Shu: "Send the child back tomorrow."

Xu Xiaoyou lowered his head even more.

Lin Shu was nice to Xu Xiaoyou at first because of her halo as the heroine, and she helped Lu Pan and Lu Tian a lot in the future of the original plot. Now she is pitiful, so naturally she has to protect her.

But after getting along with her for a few days, she felt that Xu Xiaoyou was a very sensible and well-behaved girl. She never pretended to be pitiful or pitiful, but she would repay you and help you with work to the best of her ability.

But she seemed to be born with a sense of propriety. She was very diligent and would help adults with housework, but she would not take care of Tiantian and Panpan's affairs.

For example, Lin Shu asked the children to wash their own handkerchiefs. Tiantian and Panpan washed them by themselves, and Xu Xiaoyou didn't wash them for them just to please anyone.

She saw that Tiantian and Panpan were pampered, although she was envious, she was not jealous, and she didn't secretly want to compete for favors.

She just stayed there quietly, didn't talk much, didn't cry, and did what she could do.

She knew that she couldn't influence adults, nor could she control her own affairs, she could only do her own thing.

Such children are naturally loved.

Lin Shu was willing to treat her well and let her be with Tiantian and Panpan.

Three outstanding people together will naturally be better in the future.

So she didn't care about Xu Xiaoyou eating these things.

This child didn't cause her any trouble, and she washed her clothes by herself.

She had roughly known her mother-in-law's intention, so she said, "Mom, look how well-behaved Xiaoyou is, let her stay longer."

Fang Dihua looked at Xu Xiaoyou.

Xu Xiaoyou immediately looked up at her, feeling very nervous, but told herself not to be afraid, not to be afraid to look into Grandma Fang's eyes.

Fang Dihua met her clear black eyes and nodded, "Well, you are a good child, your aunt loves you, so you should stay longer." Xu Xiaoyou

immediately smiled brightly, "Thank you, grandma, thank you, aunt."

Lu Ersao, who was sitting on the kang in the west room, groaned angrily.

Fang Dihua: "Tomorrow I have to ask the Xu family for a few pounds of food."

She can support Xu Xiaoyou, but the Xu family can't take it for granted that the daughter-in-law can eat and drink for free here.

In the evening, several children came back. It was a great harvest today. They found a can of cicada monkeys.

Lu An held the bottle and said, "Auntie, help us fry some cicada monkeys tomorrow morning."

Lin Shu agreed with a smile, "Okay." She also pointed to the rice cupboard, implying that she would hide it.

Lu Ping smiled and said, "It's okay."

Lu An nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, thank you, Auntie."

Dad can't eat secretly anymore.

The next morning, Lin Shu yawned and got up to cook.

Last night, the second sister-in-law heated the kang too hot, so she moved the children to the end of the kang to sleep, and lifted the kang mat at the head of the kang to take out the wheat straw underneath. She fell asleep after a long time of cooling down.

In the east room, the eldest brother Lu was worried. His wife was not at home and no one washed his clothes. He just left them there... and never washed them! He

was sweaty and smelled bad!

He only had a few clothes and had no other clothes to change.

What should he do?

He was in a dilemma. Should he wash them himself?

It was really cheap for a man to wash clothes.

He went to the yard wearing a vest and holding the dirtiest one, and found Lu Ping washing clothes.

In the past, when Lu's wife was at home, she would wash clothes for her sons, and sometimes Lu Ping

would wash clothes too. Now that his mother was not at home, Lu Ping washed his brothers' clothes.

Brother Lu threw his dirty clothes into the basin, splashing water on his son's face. He said, "Wash them for me while you're at it."

He could only deal with it for the time being, and then put on the first one he had worn for two days. The previous one he had worn for three days...

Lu Ping was stunned. His father really was...

Brother Lu went back to the room and changed into a less smelly piece of clothing, while grabbing the collar to smell the sour smell. He came out and saw Lu Ping standing there in a daze without washing his clothes, so he laughed. He said, "What are you staring at? Don't be so stupid. It's only natural for a son to wash clothes for his father."

Lu Ping squatted on the ground and looked up at him, "Dad, have you washed clothes for my grandfather?"

The eldest brother Lu was stunned, a little uncomfortable on his face. He coughed and scolded with a smile, "Where are you squeezing your father? You little thief, hurry up, don't delay me from wearing it, it's all rotten."

When your grandfather was young, servants washed clothes for him. Why do you need me?

At this time, the second brother came out, looked at him, and said nothing.

Fang Dihua came back from feeding the pigs, and she took a fire stick from the stove and hit Brother Lu, "You lazy bastard!"

Brother Lu ran to hide, "Mom, mom, let's talk it over, don't hit me, my wife is now a tractor operator, she is a meritorious official, you can't hit her man." He didn't

have the nerve of a man who was already a father in his thirties.

Fang Dihua got even angrier, and she caught up with him and hit him on the back.

Brother Lu knew that Fang Dihua was afraid of being embarrassed, so he immediately climbed up the east wall of the yard, sat on the top of the wall and started shouting, "Mom, dear mom, don't hit me!"

He had been cunning since he was a child. Whenever his mother wanted to hit him, he would run and cry loudly, so that everyone around could hear him. His mother was too lazy to hit him because she thought it was embarrassing.

Fang Dihua knew that he was narrow-minded, so she was no longer afraid of losing face. Whenever he acted like this, she would chase him and beat him .

You can cry and shout as much as you want. I am afraid of losing face, so I lose! I

am crazy and have earned the reputation of being a slut by my own strength. Why should I be afraid of you?

She held down Big Brother Lu and beat him hard a few times.

Zhao Meifeng, Lu Shaocai, Lu Changfu and others were watching the excitement next door.

Lu Shaocai stepped on the ladder and poked his head out and said with a smile: "Second aunt, why are you so chaotic so early in the morning? What are you doing?"

Fang Dihua waved the reed stick at him unhappily, "Behave yourself, or I will beat you too."

Lu Shaocai: "..." I know you are just talking in anger, and I won't argue with you, an old woman.

Seeing Fang Dihua go to water the vegetables, the eldest brother Lu smiled at Lu Shaocai's family, slipped down, and almost fell into the fish pond.

It was thanks to the second brother Lu who helped him up.

The eldest brother Lu put his arm around the second brother's shoulders and said, "Brother, you should be good to me. Promise me that we will be brothers forever."

He wanted the second brother Lu to give him some clothes to wear.

But the second brother Lu was taller and stronger than him, and the clothes looked a bit sloppy on him, which affected his handsomeness.

The eldest brother Lu wanted to borrow some clothes from his father.

He was about the same height as his father.

Old man Lu came out with a jacket and a pair of pants, and said unhappily: "I'll lend them to you for a day, but you have to wash them for me!"

Big brother Lu jumped over like a monkey, "Dad, you are still good to me."

Old man Lu snorted, "Go wash your own clothes, and wash the children's clothes as well. You are not a father at all."

The old woman also said that in a few years, when Lu Ping grows up and wants to get married, he will divide the family property among the three brothers. If he divides the family property in such a bad way, the old woman and the children will be bullied by him, which will affect his son's marriage. Big

brother Lu was a little unhappy, but he still went to wash the clothes obediently.

Lu Ping wanted to say no, I will wash it myself, but he had to listen to grandpa's order.

Big brother Lu looked so wronged while washing clothes.

He grew up so big, and this was the first time he washed clothes?

Lin Shu had already made a small pot of tea for Old Man Lu.

Old Man Lu took two sips and reminded Big Brother Lu, "Be gentle, the clothes are torn." After a while, she said to him, "Don't waste soap, it's very expensive."

Big Brother Lu sighed and resigned himself to washing clothes.

His clothes were all dirty, so he had to wash them. After washing and hanging them up, they would be dry today, and he would have clean clothes to wear tomorrow.

Although he was lazy, he wanted to look clean and would not allow himself to be dirty.

Because he washed a large basin of clothes, Big Brother Lu didn't have time to have a proper breakfast, so he could only eat a pancake with salted vegetables on the road.

When he passed the back of the village, he met Widow Sun who had smiled at him before.

Widow Sun was carrying a basket. Seeing Brother Lu coming over, she smiled at him again, "Brother, it's late tonight? Is it because my sister-in-law is not at home, or you can't sleep well or what?"

Brother Lu chewed a cake and said, "I'm washing clothes."

Widow Sun smiled crookedly, "How can the old men wash clothes by themselves? Give them to me and I'll wash them for you."

Brother Lu waved his hands hurriedly, "No, no, I don't have money to give you."

In the past, there were special laundry women in the city. If the family conditions were not good, they would help people to wash and sew to make money. He thought that Widow Sun had a hard life and wanted to do this business secretly.

Widow Sun smiled even more fiercely, "It's free."

Brother Lu was in a hurry to go to work. If he was late, half a work point would be deducted. His mother would beat him up if she knew.

It's not that she was reluctant to part with this half work point, but her attitude towards work.

If she is not active at work, she has problems with her thinking and deserves a beating.

Looking at the back of Big Brother Lu running away, the smile on Widow Sun's face gradually faded.

In her memory, Big Brother Lu was a very handsome young man when he was young. He was very likable. Girls and old women all liked him.

She was no exception. She didn't

expect that after so many years, her husband died, and she was already middle-aged, but Big Brother Lu was still so... childish.

It makes people... happy just by looking at him.

If she lived with a man like this, she would definitely be happy all her life, right?

In the evening, Big Brother Lu and Second Brother Lu went home together. Second Brother Lu was still carrying the hoe, while Big Brother Lu was bragging and chatting casually.

When passing by the back of the village, Widow Sun suddenly came out with a basket, and she twisted her ankle and fell on Big Brother Lu.

"Ah——" Big Brother Lu seemed to be frightened to the tenth level, and jumped to the side of Second Brother Lu at an unprecedented speed.

Seeing Widow Sun on the ground, Big Brother Lu patted his chest and said with lingering fear: "Oh my god, I thought it was a big monkey, I was almost scared to death."

Second Brother Lu: "..."

Widow Sun: "..." She groaned, and tried to stand up with the basket, but she twisted her ankle, and her ankle hurt, so she staggered and fell down again.

She fell slowly, and if people around her wanted to help her, they would definitely be able to hold her up.

Second Brother Lu took two big steps back with a serious look on his face, while Big Brother Lu half-hung on him, looking at her warily.

At this time, two women came over, "Hey, widow Sun, what's wrong with you?"

Widow Sun groaned and fell hard. She glared at Big Brother Lu with resentment.

Big Brother Lu immediately shouted, "I didn't hit her!"

Don't try to scam me!

The two women helped Widow Sun up, "Hey, your ankle and neck are swollen, you are really not careful enough."

Widow Sun was helped up, and immediately limped home with the expression of a chaste woman.

Big Brother Lu breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest, and said that he must walk in the middle in the future, and never walk on the side, so as not to be scammed.

He was the poorest in his family, he didn't have a penny, and he couldn't afford to lose money.

On the way home, the second brother Lu didn't say a word.

When they got home, the eldest brother Lu quickly fetched water to wash in the east corner, put on his own dried clothes, and took off the clothes of old father Lu and soaked them in the basin.

He saw the second brother Lu washing clothes, and he chuckled and said, "Second brother, come here, I have something to tell you."

Second brother Lu: "What's the matter?"

The eldest brother Lu invited him into the house to talk.

Second brother Lu went over.

The eldest brother Lu immediately stuffed a basin of clothes to the second brother Lu suspiciously: "Hey, second brother, help your brother wash clothes, you know I didn't learn to wash clothes since I was a child, I'm afraid that our father will ruin them." Second

brother Lu: "..."

He didn't refuse either, he was about to go out with it.

Brother Lu immediately pulled him back and said, "Wash here."

If he went out to wash and his parents saw him, wouldn't they scold him?

Brother Lu didn't refuse and helped him wash in the living room.

Brother Lu was lying on the kang in the small north room with his two sons, crossing his legs, talking to Brother Lu with the door open and the breeze blowing in.

Brother Lu said, "Brother, what's going on between you and Widow Sun?"

Brother Lu was so shocked that he sat up all of a sudden, "Second brother, don't talk nonsense, there is nothing between her and me."

Last time, he just smiled and his father wanted to break his legs.

This time he did nothing!

She fell down by herself!

You can't blame him!
