Chapter 352 Eyes are red
"Okay, aunt, I understand. I will come to see you when I am free. It's not far away," said Chen Zhaodi.
"Well, go back. I won't see you off. You'll have to go to work soon." Wang thought that after sending the person away, she would have a simple meal at home and then go to work.
Chen Zhaodi looked at the twenty kilograms of flour and kept swallowing her saliva.
She has never eaten white flour since she was a child, and any delicious food at home is given to her youngest brother.
All the clothes are my eldest sister's.
Seeing that she is now wearing patched clothes, although the clothes on my aunt are washed white, there are very few patches, so these should just be clothes for work.
But she looked in her aunt's closet and found two nice Lenin suits.
If she wore this dress, she would be the most beautiful girl in the area.
It's not just a matter of picking a partner.
Considering that his cousin’s wife isn’t pregnant yet, the best man to choose is his cousin.
Now that he has gone to Beijing North, he must be the best man.
She felt itchy in her heart.
After Chen Zhaodi was sent away, Wang started to eat some steamed buns and pickles for breakfast.
The bell for work rang.
When Chen Zhaodi arrived home, Sister Wang saw that her little girl Zhaodi had returned home and asked: "Why are you back? Didn't I ask you to stay at your aunt's house for a few more days?"
"Mom, I also want to stay a few more days. It's the busy farming season now, and I'm very busy at work. My aunt doesn't need me to take care of her. People in their village also point fingers at me, saying that I don't help with the family work, so my aunt asked me to come back."
Chen Zhaodi took out a bag of flour from her back and said, "This is the white flour given by my aunt. It should be all the white flour in her family."
Sister Wang's eyes lit up: "Hey, little sister, living conditions are really good now. We can't even get full with the black-faced steamed bread at home, but they eat this every day at home?"
Her eyes were red with jealousy.
When the family was well off, she never received as much love and care as her younger sister since she was a child.
Later, her younger sister followed a poor boy, and she felt a little better.
Things are better now. Her husband died early and she only has one son. Now she can still live such a life. It's really incomparable. It makes me angry.
"Not really, I looked at my aunt's steamed bun basket and saw that most of it was made of yellow flour, with some black flour. There were only a few white flour buns. My aunt gave all the white flour buns to me." Zhaodi didn't speak too well of her aunt's house, so that her mother would let her go there more often.
She can also eat more good food at her aunt's place.
When her mother passed away, she wouldn’t be able to eat even a single white flour bun.
"What? Aren't they all white flour? There are also black steamed bread in her steamed bun basket." Sister Wang smiled awkwardly.
It seems that no one knows how long this flour has been stored. He still thinks of his elder sister, which shows that he still has a conscience.
"Okay, go to work." Sister Wang took the flour and felt happy.
Zhaodi took the initiative to say: "Mom, can we eat white flour buns too?"
She was also jealous when she saw the white flour.
Who doesn't want to eat something delicious?
"Eat, eat, eat. These flours are for your younger brother. Your younger brother is already grown up. He should eat more flour to nourish himself. What will a little girl like you eat? You are so old, but no one has come to your house to propose to you. Why don't you hurry up and find someone to marry?" Sister Wang looked at her daughter with displeasure.
A hint of displeasure flashed across Chen Zhaodi's eyes, but she did not dare to compete with Sister Wang.
Is it that she doesn't want to get married? It's because her mother asked for too much dowry, only two hundred yuan.
Nowadays, getting married in the countryside is considered good if you are in your twenties or thirties. If the family is good, it would be good if they asked for a few hundred yuan. But the key is that their family is relatively poor in the village. Who would be willing to spend so much money to marry a rural girl?
Even if someone is disabled, you can find a good wife in the countryside by spending a hundred yuan.
But she didn't dare to refute. Even if she was beaten by her mother, no one would care. She better shut up.
She really wants to stay at her aunt's house.
"Mom, after the autumn harvest is over, I will go to live with my aunt for a while. In this way, I can get more food for the family." She believed that if her aunt had food, she would be willing to help her elder sister.
My aunt looks much better than my mother.
Sister Wang narrowed her eyes and said: "If you want me to go, wouldn't it be better if I take my son with me?"
"Mom, it's not convenient for my brother to be a boy. There are still a lot of things at home that you need to take care of. You are the mistress of the family, how can the family leave you? I am a girl, it's convenient for me to stay with my aunt longer. Then I can ask my aunt for some food subsidies for the family every now and then. Isn't it convenient?" Chen Zhaodi was persuading her mother.
As long as she went to Gujiazhuang, she could eat and drink better than at home.
Who doesn’t want to eat two-grain flour steamed buns or white flour steamed buns every day?
"Okay, let's go to work," said Sister Wang, and the bell of their team rang.
-
Gu Yao, who lives in northern Beijing, is busy with work every day and is completely unaware of what is happening at home.
She sent things home regularly when the time came.
Just make sure that my mother-in-law and my family can live a better life.
Even if she knew about the plans of her mother-in-law and elder sister's family, Gu Yao would not care.
She was given enough food every month, so she could eat white flour buns every day. She was also given so much money every month that even if she didn't work, she would not have to worry about food and drink.
Everyone can live well in the village.
She gave all the good things to others and suffered herself. That's what she deserves and no one can persuade her otherwise.
She worked as usual in northern Beijing, and in the blink of an eye it was early winter, and she didn't see any sign of Xiao Zaiye.
On the weekend, Gu Yao brought some fresh meat and went to Mr. Qin's house.
She was very panicked, as this was the longest wait since she got married.
"Master, tell me, he has been gone for such a long time and has not written to his family. Did something happen to him?" She felt uneasy and missed Xiao Zaiye.
As soon as Old Qin came up, he slapped Gu Yao on the head and said, "What are you thinking about? This is a special period and the troops have heavy tasks to do. What's more, this is the Beijing North Troops. It is normal to go out on a mission and not go home for a year or two."
Gu Yao was confused: "What? One or two years, such a long time?"
"Well, now that he hasn't contacted you, it proves that he is safe. Don't worry. He was just transferred to the army and was given an important task. It shows the army's trust in him. As a family member, you should also believe in him." Old Qin knows the hardships of being a military family member.
They used to be in the same army, but later they separated. It was the same situation, and they lived apart for a long time.
