"Dad, if you let me do it, then of course your daughter-in-law will do it. But Ruxin really can't do it. Look at her hands. She is now learning embroidery in an embroidery studio in the city. She embroiders all silk and satin. You know, rough hands will cause silk and satin to get snagging. With these hands, she can earn a lot of money in the future by embroidering. Now she has to be carefully protected!"
The old man was excited when he heard that he could earn money. "Ruxin is learning embroidery. She is really talented."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhaodi looked at Zhao Ruxin with envy. Her eldest cousin was actually learning embroidery. If she could learn a skill, she would definitely be able to marry a respectable man in the future.
If she could also learn embroidery, then... she wouldn't have to marry a peasant!
Zhao Zhaodi's heart was moved and she quietly tugged at her mother's clothes. Mrs. Xi felt quite unhappy. They were really no match for the older family. All of their sons were studying in school, while her sons were working in the fields every day. While other girls wore cotton skirts and learned embroidery, her daughter washed clothes, cooked, and collected grass for pigs.
There's no comparison. She would feel so suffocated if she were compared.
Oh!
"Sister-in-law is really talented. Not only does she not expect her son to be successful, but her daughter is also so capable. Ruxin, how much money did you spend on learning embroidery?"
Old man Zhao instinctively felt that it was all over.
Wang hurriedly tried to stop him.
"One hundred cents." His little face was full of pride, his chin raised high, like a proud little peacock.
Zhao Ruxin blurted out. She wanted to show off before, but her mother wouldn't let her. Now her mother has said it herself, so what else is there to hide?
Old man Zhao was so angry that he wanted to curse, "You stupid girl, how could you be so stupid?"
Sun was shocked. "What? One hundred coins, Wang, are you crazy? One hundred coins a month, and you spend it on a loser? No matter how much money the family has, it can't afford to waste it like this. You are a fool who doesn't know how to live!"
"Dad, my brother is so rich, my Zhaodi..."
The old man interrupted hurriedly, "Zhao Di's hands are clumsy, she can't learn it." The eldest brother didn't know how difficult his life was now because of him. Can't you be a little more obedient and low-key? Why do you have to keep causing trouble for him?
How could Zhao Dayong suffer a loss? "It's okay to be rough, it will be fine after a while. Zhaodi, tomorrow, no, starting today, you will follow your eldest cousin to learn needlework. I will protect your hands, and don't do any other work, understand?" He thought clearly, if he pampered his daughter and let her marry a rich man, he would be able to live a good life.
"I got it. Thank you, Dad!" Zhao Zhaodi was extremely happy. Finally, she didn't have to do those annoying and rough jobs anymore. It was really great.
"Second brother, you..."
"Dad, I'm your son too, right?"
Old man Zhao was speechless. Wang also realized that it was the second brother's family who were behind the trouble. Ever since the matter of buying the house was exposed, and the head of the family did not go for the scientific examination, their family's attitude towards them changed.
Does this mean they feel there is no hope for their family?
Well, it’s not their fault. Even she didn’t report to the head of the family. There is hope.
"Mom, I won't teach Zhaodi!"
"Ruxin, what nonsense are you talking about. She is your sister, and we are family. Starting today, you should teach her needlework." As he said this, he pulled the silly girl. If you don’t want to teach her, just do housework and ask her what she wants to choose?
Zhao Ruxin came back to her senses and bit her lip in annoyance. Zhaodi, she hated this cousin the most. Every time she came back, she would stick to her and be envious of everything she had.
It was not easy for Wang Shitu to deal with the whole family, so she went back to the house with her bag.
"Mom, I want to go back to the city."
"Do you think we can leave now? Ruxin, have I taught you for so many years, but was it all in vain? Can't you just keep calm and be smarter?
Our family is now in a situation where a tiger is trapped in a plain and is bullied by a dog. We must keep a low profile in everything. Do you understand? ”
Zhao Ruxin pouted, feeling aggrieved.
