Chapter 171 Marriage
Don’t say we are all from the same village.
If Zhao's mother had better relationships with people and wasn't so foul-mouthed, there would be many people helping her.
now.
Most of them are just onlookers.
You mocked others when you were in glory, but now that you are in trouble, why should you ask others to help you?
Village Chief He originally planned to talk to Zhao De. After all, this matter was outrageous. But the words that the Zhao family said to the He family really destroyed the last bit of sympathy and pity that Village Chief He had. It is said that there must be something hateful about pitiful people.
This thing is absolutely hateful.
Even Village Chief He didn't care, let alone other people in the village. Instead, there were many people who just watched the fun and laughed at the joke.
To Erhe, this is called "evil will be punished by evil", who says this is not retribution.
Just wait and see, no one in this family will have an easy time.
Without anyone else's help, the family can destroy the house.
So Erhe likes the He family very much. Apart from anything else, Village Chief He and Wang Xiu are not only reasonable, but also know how to protect the younger generation. With such elders, it would be difficult for the family to have a bad life.
This matter was widely circulated for half a month, and most of the villagers were discussing it. In that era, this matter was really unbelievable.
Some people also asked Zhao's mother to report it and make Zhao De lose his job.
But what did Zhao's mother say?
"I can't let Lao Zhao lose his job. If he loses his job, how will Zhao Yang and I live? I just want that bitch Sun Hongying to get out..."
“…”
After that, no one gave advice to the Zhao family anymore. It’s up to them whoever wants to do what they want!
Life in the countryside goes on as usual.
The small workshop in Erhe still has a large daily shipment volume. Although the weather is getting colder now, the production of sweatshirts has changed to autumn clothes and trousers. A large batch of goods are stocked in advance and can be sold when the weather gets completely cooler. While others are busy discussing things, Wang Xiu and Su's mother are working hard on their sewing machines. They pocket more than 100 yuan in profit a month, which is more cost-effective than anything else.
"Aunts, can I ask you to do me a favor?"
Erhe was also in the small house at the back that day. She recorded the quantity of the finished clothes and packed them up, waiting to deliver the goods to the warehouse with He Zheng in the evening.
This matter cannot be too blatant, so both of them do it at night, transporting goods in small batches.
"Just say it directly,"
"Yes, you don't have to be so polite."
Wang Xiu and Su's mother were both straightforward people, so Li Xi didn't need to keep him in suspense. Li Xi thought for a moment and said, "It's about my brother. He's 19 years old this year, but because of our family situation, could you please help me find a marriage for him?"
In terms of age, Li Dong will be 20 after the New Year, which is indeed not young.
But everyone knows the situation of the Li family. Now that Li Xi's leg is healed, and both the brother and sister are capable, having a sister-in-law would be a perfect match.
"Okay, we'll keep an eye on it for you."
Having said that, after finishing work in the evening, Wang Xiu pulled Erhe aside. Nowadays, she was not used to looking for her son when she had something to do, but preferred to discuss it with her daughter-in-law.
"It's not that I'm saying the Li brothers and sisters are bad, but with a family like theirs, I don't know if there are any girls willing to marry into their family. Without parents to help them, the key is to find a girl with a good heart. If she's fierce and bullies Li Xi, her sister-in-law, after she gets married, that won't work either."
Erhe's thoughts were not that complicated. "That's not necessarily true. Some girls might not like families with parents-in-law. They think it's troublesome to have parents-in-law interfere in their affairs. In fact, according to me, Li Dong and Li Xi shouldn't rush into marriage. In another year, everyone's life will be better."
Once the clothing business is brought to the open, the Li family's financial situation will improve and they will naturally be able to find a better girl.
For a man, appearance and family background are just plus points; the key is to have the ability to make money.
Even Li Xi, the younger sister-in-law, is earning the least work points now, and the older sister-in-law might dislike her. But once this matter becomes public and people know that Li Xi can earn more than 200 yuan in cash a month, who would still dislike this younger sister-in-law for being a nuisance?
After all, having money gives you confidence!
Wang Xiu thought Erhe was talking about making clothes. She admitted that it was indeed profitable, but she said, "After all, this is still done secretly, so it's not good to tell anyone."
Since we can't tell anyone, who would know that Li Xi earns a lot of money in a month.
Erhe originally wanted to say that she should wait patiently.
On second thought, one shouldn't force things. Once the Li family's conditions improve, who knows, people might come for their money again.
In the end it all depends on fate, it’s better to let things take their course.
"Then keep an eye on it first. This matter can't be resolved at a glance."
Wang Xiu thought about He Zheng's marriage. It was also full of twists and turns. Going back further, her eldest son in the army didn't even bring back a partner because he was determined to make achievements.
Li Xi was afraid that he would be a burden to his brother Li Dong, so he asked his elders to find a partner for Li Dong.
These words really touched Su's mother's heart.
She has three sons.
Her belly is really impressive, there is not even a girl in it.
The eldest daughter should have been of marriageable age a long time ago. If it weren't for the Sun Hongying incident, she might have already had a grandson.
Now this matter naturally needs to be dealt with quickly.
Su Chuan doesn't need her to worry about him, and she can't worry about him either. After all, the child didn't grow up in this family, and many times Su's mother can't say much to him.
Now that I have gone to the army, not to mention coming back, there is almost no letter from me.
Su's mother knew that her family's conditions were not as good as those of the Du and Nie families, so she could only let it go.
Su Xiatian is still young and can wait for a few more years.
For a time, the rumor that two young men in Ku Shui Village were looking for a partner spread.
Compared to Li Dong, Su Dongtian is of course more popular. After all, he is a worker in the county town. After marrying him, not to mention anything else, maybe he can go to live in the city with him, and then he won't have to work hard on farming. Even if he doesn't go to the city with him, the monthly salary of twenty or thirty yuan is still a stable salary.
With this money, life will be easy.
These matters are naturally handled by the elders, and it is not the turn of the young daughter-in-law Erhe to do this.
Erhe didn't want to worry about this.
There is a saying that makes a lot of sense: women who worry too much will age quickly.
Apart from business matters, she pushed everything else to He Zheng.
Isn't this the purpose of marrying a man? If the two of you still live your own lives, then it's not even a marriage.
Not only that, gradually Erhe even asked He Zheng to handle things like settling the bill with Wu Ge. Anyway, He Zheng would always give her the full amount of money.
She just wanted to save herself some effort.
On this day, the village arranged to distribute eggs, mainly for the batch of chicks hatched after the New Year. The hens have started laying eggs now. There are hundreds of chickens, both roosters and hens. A lot of eggs can be collected in a day. After accumulating for several days, there are hundreds of them.
Everyone who participated in this matter could get a share of eggs.
Village Chief He said in advance, "This is our collective industry. We don't sell the eggs to the outside world, but distribute them to the villagers. They use the eggs to replenish their energy, so that they can better build our Kushui Village and contribute to the country."
After all, he is the village chief, so he speaks with great awareness.
Village chief He also has a small notebook in which he records the people who were involved in the incident.
Now the eggs are distributed according to the list in the small notebook.
Erhe took the initiative to take on the task of dividing the eggs.
It's not for anything else, just get as much as you can.
