Hearing this, Zhang Haiyao snorted and pulled Old Third Zhou back to eat. Li Qinghe also went back to the kitchen to cook, and the piece of meat was given to Mother Zhou.
She just cooked some food on her own, and went to the backyard with a hoe, digging on a separate piece of ground on the side, and then asked Mother Zhou to get vegetable seeds to plant.
When she finished planting, it was already afternoon, she went to the pond to feed the fish again, and then looked at the chicks, it was too late when she returned home. Going to cook again, fried the meat specially, and brought it back to the house.
During an episode, when she returned to the room with the meat, she happened to meet Zhang Haiyao who came out of the table and chopsticks. She glanced at the plate and said with a smile, "I heard that my younger brother and sister have been helping in the restaurant for two years. Will this craft be better than ours? Are these ordinary girls better? Why should I try?"
Li Qinghe gave her a plate, "In fact, it's not as good as you." Avoiding her body, he went back to the room.
In this family, Zhang Haiyao is the person she hates most, not one of them.
The good thing is that she is always at the forefront.
It makes sense to respect Mother Zhou and give Zhang Haiyao to eat. After giving it to Zhang Haiyao, she will definitely be upset and be suffocated for a long time. She is so stupid that she finds her own guilt.
The sky darkened outside, and when she couldn't help but want to go to the foot of Xishan Mountain, Zhou Chengkang came back with a load of firewood.
Li Qinghe fetched water for him and was picked up by him, "I will do it myself."
In the evening, the two sat face to face and talked about what happened during the day. Zhou Chengkang was very happy when he heard the money sold. "If this continues, we should be able to build a house soon, and we can eat whatever we want. "
I have to say that if the family lives together, they only use the kitchen and the water room and take turns, which is really inconvenient.
The two said that he would go up the mountain as usual the next day. After Li Qinghe went to the town to send the pheasant to the restaurant, he took a break by candlelight and fell asleep. The next morning, when they were about to get up, they heard a quarrel outside.
May's voice is not loud, but full of anger, "We use the kitchen every morning, everyone with eyes knows it? You can't get up early if you want to do it, or do it last night like the four younger siblings?"
"Let you be polite to you." Zhang Haiyao did not show any weakness, "Everyone in this kitchen, why can't I use it? It was OK to make it last night, but it was cold in the morning when we made it last night. It won’t be cold, does my sister-in-law want us to get sick?"
When the two refused to let go, Mother Zhou became impatient, and went out, "What did you make in the morning? I said, I thought it was inconvenient and made my own kitchen."
Zhang Haiyao snorted and turned into the kitchen, so angry that May pinched Boss Zhou several times.
When May went to town that day, Shengsheng was delayed by half an hour, and the tofu was not as much as before. Li Qinghe did not go to town with them. When the three of them came back in the afternoon, the tofu hadn't been sold out, and the faces of several people were not good. After Boss Zhou entered the door, he took a sip of water and went out again with a burden. It looks like it is going to be sold to every family in the village.
In the evening, after Mother Zhou came back, Mrs. Liu went in with his daughter-in-law. Boss Zhou looked ugly and knocked on the door to make Li Qinghe go to the main room.
When everyone arrived, Old Lady Liu coughed and said, "Sister Zhou, living in your house these days, it is really troublesome for you, but it was said beforehand."
Mother Zhou looked at the plates on the table and seemed to be listening carefully, and Old Lady Liu looked at everyone, "If you want me to say, this is the kitchen time, we should discuss it. Before the hour of the day, the three of us are busy making tofu, you Can't come to delay. Sister, to be honest, we have done a good job, and the boss has a better life, and it will save you worry?"
"The kitchen is not yours."
When she said this, Zhang Haiyao knew it was because of her business in the morning. If she didn’t speak anymore, the kitchen would really become theirs in the morning. If she wanted to use it, she wouldn’t have her own. Of course, she didn’t agree, and she said nothing. Feeling that it’s not enough, he continued, “Now in the slack farming, I don’t have to work. You can use it whatever you want. Today, it’s not that our family has to go up the mountain to cut firewood. When we are busy, we will definitely not get up to work. At this hour, the sun is basking. When we finish our meal, well, how can we do it when the sun is at its highest? You can't go straight to the field without eating, so it can work? Your request is totally unreasonable. ,Am I right?"
Everyone in her mouth is mainly Li Qinghe.
Wumei has been cooking for the past few days since they were separated, and they have been waiting for them to go there. The dinner is very late, and Mother Zhou has not spoken. Believe that now the time for making tofu in the morning is set, she would not have any opinions.
Li Qinghe didn't speak. It was indeed a bit inconvenient, but it was fine to get used to it. Recently, the weather was good. She did more the night before and didn't go to join in the fun in the morning. With so many people, it is impossible not to accommodate at all.
Without talking here, Zhang Haiyao glanced at her disdainfully, as if she thought she was too timid, and said, "Actually, it is not impossible for you to let me go to the kitchen in the morning. You just need to compensate for my loss. How many benefits, how many tofu you make every day, save me a piece, I will definitely cook after the hour!"
She glanced at the crowd with intention to point out, "As for others, discuss it yourself!"
Obviously it is blackmail, but somehow it makes sense.
May makes tofu, so they have to accommodate, and their willingness to move is based on the affection of the family. Now they are not willing to be modest, and it makes sense to get some benefits.
But these words really pierced the lung tube of Old Lady Liu. She stood up with anger. She didn't even argue with Zhang Haiyao. She only looked at Mother Zhou, "Sister, this doesn't make sense, right? We were married at the beginning. How can I put it, the boss is going to take me over to provide me with a pension. Now your family is like this... Is it planning to piss me off early?"
"I don't dare to stay at this house." Liu Po was so angry, "I'm afraid I will be mad to death early. Since you don't speak, I will take them back to Liujia Village. I have a house there and a large kitchen specializing in tofu. It’s almost a quarter of an hour from the town over there. Do you think it’s easy to pick an extra quarter of an hour every day? This one, I’m not too scared of it!"
"No." Mother Zhou finally said, looking at the angry Lady Liu, "Sister-in-law, since this marriage is over, Plum Blossom is already the daughter-in-law of my Zhou family, so I must abide by my rules. If you want to go home, I won't stop you. , But she and the boss are not allowed to leave. As for the use of the kitchen, I still said that. You should discuss it yourself. If the negotiation is not good, make your own."
She paused and looked at the dark yard, "Tomorrow I will measure the yard and divide the land of each house evenly. It is also convenient for you to build a kitchen."
Lady Liu looked surprised. May lowered his head and tears fell.
Zhang Haiyao folded her arms and smiled triumphantly, "I said, give me a piece of tofu, which is convenient for others. If you leave a piece of tofu in each house early, I won't be so naive."
May cried more fiercely. Mother Zhou looked at her and said with a serious face, "Mei Hua, don't feel wronged. I didn't aim at you. Here, everyone is the same."
May wiped a tear, "They all say that the eldest son is old-age, mother, I don't want you to be partial, but you... can you be a little fairer?"
Li Qinghe raised her eyebrows. May said to be fair. In fact, it is fair now. She meant that Mother Zhou would rely on them to provide for the elderly. The fairness she wanted was that Mother Zhou should favor them.
"The third sibling’s family is in the town. I’ve heard all these days. Not only did the Zhang family not ask us to give her the betrothal and betrothal gifts, she also married her a lot. There are also four siblings. Pond, although it's harder, life will definitely be easier, and we are left...
She tears down, "That is, we go out early and return late every day to earn some hard money. You still have to persecute like this, so why are you at ease? If this family can't tolerate me, it's like my mother said, we go back to Liujia Village. ."
Speaking of returning to Liu’s Village again, Mother Zhou’s complexion was hard to look like, "That said, since you are married to Zhou’s family, I don’t care about your mother-in-law. You can’t leave, you really want to leave. I don’t have an older daughter-in-law at this house. ."
May's face turned pale in an instant.
She looked at Boss Zhou, raised her hand to interrupt what he was about to say, and said solemnly, "If you want to say that going to Liujiacun is temporary, then don't come back when you go. I am more than a son, and they will never watch. I won’t collect my corpse when I die. I’ll earn a bite to eat while I’m alive. If I don’t earn it, I’ll die. After death, some people collect corpses. It makes no difference whether there is you or you.”
What Boss Zhou wanted to persuade suddenly choked in his throat, and his eyes became redder, "Mother, don't worry, my son will never leave Zhou's house forever."
May's pale complexion turned pale, eyes closed, tears fell.
After this dispute, the two bosses stopped making tofu the next morning and began to hire an artificial kitchen.
Zhou Chengkang still went to help, and if he had the money to make a kitchen, he would still be quick. Within two days, the kitchen and the stove were built.
After finishing the kitchen, May invited the two of them over to have a meal. Mother Zhou did not invite them. Every dish was taken to the main room.
Four or five people were invited. When they finished eating, it was a mess. Li Qinghe helped clean up. May looked at the yard while washing the dishes and said in a low voice, "Four brothers and sisters, don't you think Hai Yao is too much? Let, as expected, I do business at home. It’s too good to calculate. I still said sourly for the past two days, but I can’t bear a piece of tofu every day..."
"Let me say that as long as she is here, there will be no peace in this house. I really heard from the people of the Zhang family. She really has seven or eight taels of silver and is enough to build a house. Why... we think of a way to let her out. Find a foundation to build a house?"
For the final proposal, she lowered her voice.
Li Qinghe was washing the dishes, seeing her excited, and asked, "What can I do?"
"I haven't thought of it yet, but I know that you will move away sooner or later, you can stay away from her, but if she stays at home like that, you can rest assured? Where you can't see, you don't know how your mother was bullied by her. "
This makes sense, and it must be discussed in the long term.
Li Qinghe did not refute her claim that she was going out to build a house. She herself planned to ask someone to build the house when the weather was the best in June, and let it dry for a few months before moving in in winter.
In fact, the pond and the chickens over there need to be taken care of carefully, and after moving over, she still wants to buy more chickens, and if there is such a large wasteland, she has to do something else.
The author has something to say: See you tomorrow evening
