Siheyuan: I don't mind if I break up the marriage

Chapter 15: Jia's sewing machine becomes scrap metal, Jiang Yueshen buys a new one

Li Shulan is an honest person, but that doesn't mean she can be bullied by others.

Now Yi Zhonghai is implying that his family should donate money to the Jia family.

Li Shulan wanted to ask why she should donate money?

Li Shulan took a step forward and confidently told the story of Jiang Yueshen selling furniture and blood to save money.

He told it all from beginning to end.

He also told the story of how Qin Huairu didn't want to pay back the 50 yuan she received.

After hearing this, all the men, women, young and old in the hospital were shocked.

I really didn't expect that such a thing had happened between the two families before.

Everyone suddenly understood at this moment. It was no wonder that Qin Huairu knew Jiang Yueshen when she just got married.

"Xiao Jiang's mother, this is a new society, and we value freedom and equality in marriage."

"It's not impossible for Qin Huairu to choose to marry Jia Dongxu."

At this time, Jiang Yueshen smiled and said, "Yes, you are right. Marriage is free and equal. You can marry whoever you want."

"But I don't want to donate. It's my freedom, right?"

“Why do you force me to donate money?”

"Besides, the Jia family can go to the street office to apply for subsidies."

"Isn't it more than the money donated by everyone in the compound?"

Everyone nodded, thinking that what Jiang Yueshen said made sense.

However, Jia Zhang was guilty and she did not dare to go to the street office to apply.

"You..." Yi Zhonghai was choked and speechless for a moment.

I really didn't expect that Jiang Yueshen would be such a tough nut to crack!

Yi Zhonghai said in a gentle tone: "You don't have to donate money, just contribute your strength if you can."

"You happen to be a carpenter, so why don't you help them make a set of furniture?"

Yi Zhonghai felt that he couldn't get the money, so why didn't he get some furniture for Jia Dongxu?

Jiang Yueshen directly refused and said, "My wood was not blown by the wind."

"If the Jia family wants to buy furniture from me, I can sell it."

"But if you want me to give it to you for free, I'm sorry, you have to pay for it."

"I have no obligation to do anything for the Jia family for free."

At this time, Qin Huairu said pitifully: "Jiang Yueshen, my house has been burned down like this, where can I get the money?"

"Why don't you just make some furniture for us first? Just consider this money as something my family owes you, and I'll pay it back later, okay?"

Jiang Yueshen continued, "Do you really have no money, or are you unwilling to pay for it?"

"But I heard that your mother-in-law was willing to sacrifice her life last night in order to bring the money out."

"I'm not talking nonsense, am I?"

Qin Huairu was speechless after being blocked by Jiang Yueshen and was instantly at a loss for words.

Many people in the compound saw her mother-in-law's behavior of valuing money over her life yesterday.

Now you want to get something for nothing, which obviously means you don't want to pay.

"Yes! I think Jiang Yueshen is right. I will donate less money."

"My family isn't wealthy, so I don't pretend to be a big shot."

The person who spoke was Xu Damao, who directly took back the 5 yuan he had donated and exchanged it for 1 yuan.

Everyone in the compound followed suit and took their money back.

Yi Zhonghai snorted coldly: "Jiang Yueshen, you are a selfish person! You have serious ideological and moral problems."

"No wonder you don't have a proper job. Look for the reason from your own side!"

Jiang Yueshen sneered, "Thank you for reminding me, Master Yi Buqun."

"Don't worry about whether I have a job or not."

In fact, Director Wang had already drafted a letter of introduction for Jiang Yueshen to go to the steel rolling mill.

It’s just that Director Wang has been a bit busy recently and hasn’t stamped the document yet and given it to Jiang Yueshen.

"Hmph! Meeting adjourned!"

Yi Zhonghai made a sullen face and went home directly with the enamel cup in his hand.

Jiang Yueshen was too lazy to join in the fun, so he took his mother and sister back to the backyard to continue making furniture.

Jiang Yueshen's carpentry skills have been recognized by everyone.

Not only is the craftsmanship exquisite, but the material is also of good quality.

You can't buy such good quality outside at the same price.

Everyone was very satisfied and felt they had made a profit, and Jiang Yueshen was even more satisfied because he made more money.

During this time, Yan Bugui came over with a smile.

They wanted Jiang Yueshen to help repair their old furniture.

Jiang Yueshen directly rejected Yan Bugui.

After all, Jiang Yueshen didn't really intend to make a living by relying on his carpentry skills.

Besides, how can you, Yan Bugui, ask for help from others empty-handed?

Not only did he not give him a penny, but he even wanted to take advantage of Jiang Yueshen in the end?

Jiang Yueshen may not make money, but he cannot suffer losses.

Yan Bugui felt humiliated and left unhappily.

After all the furniture was made, Jiang Yueshen returned to the house.

I saw Li Shulan holding needle and thread and mending Yaya’s old clothes.

"Mom, if these old clothes are no longer useful, just give them away. We will all wear new ones from now on."

Li Shulan smiled and said, "Yue Shen, you can't waste money now. This dress can still be worn after you sew it."

Jiang Yueshen did not refute. After all, diligence and thrift were ingrained in Li Shulan's character.

In this case, Jiang Yueshen can only reduce his mother's hard work.

"Mom, wait at home. I'll go buy you a sewing machine."

Jiang Yueshen put on his clothes and prepared to go out while talking.

"Yueshen, that's not necessary. It's just some simple mending."

Jiang Yueshen smiled and said, "Mom, since I am the head of this family, you just need to enjoy the good life in the future. I will take care of the rest."

"Don't forget, I just made a lot of money selling furniture."

Seeing her son was so sensible, Li Shulan smiled and did not stop him.

Yaya was in the room, learning to write with He Yushui, so no one called her.

Jiang Yueshen rode his bicycle to the department store.

Now is the period of the Three Antis and Five Antis movement, and the prices of thousands of commodities have been drastically reduced.

However, ordinary people have the mentality of buying when prices are high and not buying when prices are low, and they always think that prices can be further reduced.

So I want to wait until the lowest price to buy.

The more the price goes up, the easier it is to sell the product. On the contrary, people are afraid that they will not be able to keep up with the low price.

Jiang Yueshen knew that the ticket supply system was implemented a few years after the Three Antis and Five Antis campaign.

By then, even if you have money, you still won’t be able to buy a sewing machine or a bicycle without a ticket.

So, whenever you have the chance, buy all four major items as soon as possible.

After a while, Jiang Yueshen returned to the compound with a sewing machine.

When passing by the central courtyard, I saw Jia Zhang crying loudly while holding a sewing machine that had been burned into scrap metal.

This sewing machine is unlucky. It was never used after being bought by the Jia family.

First it was thrown, and then it was burned into scrap metal...

Jia Zhang just happened to see Jiang Yueshen coming back with a new sewing machine, and her howling became even louder.

"Oh my God, please open your eyes and look at our Jia family. We are so pitiful."

"There are bad guys in this compound, they are bullying us on purpose and making us feel unhappy~~"

"Old Jia~~Hurry up and take a look, someone is bullying us orphans and widows~~"

Jiang Yueshen knew that Jia Zhang was making indirect accusations, but she just didn't have time to deal with this bitch.

At this time, Qin Huairu also saw the sewing machine that Jiang Yueshen was holding, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat.

However, Jiang Yueshen didn't even look at Qin Huairu and walked straight to the backyard.

The second aunt who was washing clothes in the sink said with a grumble:

"Tell me, does Qin Huairu feel bad? Does she regret it?"

"How can I not regret it? Jiang Yueshen looks like a capable guy."

"Qin Huairu has abandoned a wealthy and good family."

"Well...whoever marries Jiang Yueshen in the future will be blessed..."

The gossips went straight into Qin Huairu's ears.

Qin Huairu didn't believe that Jiang Yueshen could be so cruel to her, so she walked towards the backyard.

At the door of Jiang's house, Jiang Yueshen was unpacking the sewing machine.

Qin Huairu said softly: "Yueshen, you... don't have money, why did you buy a sewing machine..."

"Well, I'm not as rich as Jia Dongxu anyway."

Jiang Yueshen's words directly hurt Qin Huairu's heart.

"Yue Shen, I know you did it for the sake of face. Did you deliberately say you wouldn't give me furniture during the meeting?"

"Now that the meeting is over, can you give me some furniture?"
