The beginning of the silly uncle, the true love is full of the courtyard
Chapter 37: Jia's mother and son plot against each other, Jia Zhang gets into trouble
Because Qin Huairu gave birth to a boy, the Jia family also had a successor. Jia Zhang felt that she had fulfilled the old Jia's last wish and was worthy of the ancestors of the Jia family. Because Jia Zhang was very happy these days, her attitude towards Qin Huairu also improved a lot.
"Dongxu, it's almost time to hold a full-month banquet for Banggeng. Do you have any rules?" Jia Zhang put down the patinated soles she was sewing and asked Jia Dongxu about her grandson's full-month banquet.
"Well, what rules can there be? We should do what others do!" Jia Dongxu teased his son and said casually.
"How can our situation be the same as others? Our sticks are so valuable that those country bumpkins are losing money!" Jia Zhang was a little dissatisfied when she heard her son's answer.
"Then what do you say we should do? Ever since my master got into trouble, I've been unlucky too. I have a lot of work to do every day, but the salary at the end of the month is not as much as when others first came to work. To tell you the truth, my family has already spent all my salary from last month. The food that Huairu eats now is bought with money borrowed from my master!" Seeing that his mother was dissatisfied, Jia Dongxu had no choice but to tell the truth.
"What, Qin Huairu, do you really think of yourself as the eldest daughter of a wealthy family? You spent all of Dongxu's salary in just a few days?" Jia Zhang cursed at Qin Huairu.
"Mother-in-law, I eat things that increase my milk supply, otherwise it would be hard to keep my penis alive!" Qin Huairu said, wiping away her tears.
"Mom, please keep your voice down. Don't wake Banggeng up. Besides, we had enough money, but if you also took the supplements for Huairu, it wouldn't be enough." Jia Dongxu advised helplessly as he watched his son being woken up.
"Mother-in-law, it's all my fault. I will eat less next time. Don't be angry! Dongxu, don't talk about mom like that." Qin Huairu admitted her mistake. In her heart, she cursed Jia Zhangshi for being a worthless person. She bought the food for herself, but she ended up eating most of it.
"Okay, Mom, let's talk about the full moon banquet!" Jia Dongxu looked at his mother with a headache.
"Humph, what I mean is that the full moon banquet should be held in a grand manner. It should be better than that of other families in the courtyard." Jia Zhang stopped making a fuss.
"This? My family has no money left, and my master doesn't have much either. What should we do?" Jia Dongxu said
"Don't you have savings? Take them out!" Jia Zhang said indifferently.
"No, mother-in-law, the deposits cannot be touched!" Qin Huairu objected directly without waiting for Jia Dongxu to speak.
"What does it have to do with you?" Jia Zhang was a little scared when she saw Qin Huairu staring at her seriously, and she muttered softly.
"Mom, we can't touch that money! Let's just give it as a token of our gratitude at the full moon banquet." Jia Dongxu said
"What do you know? This full moon banquet must be held in a big way. First, we want to let the people in the hospital see it and make them dare not look down on us. Second, you can also call your leaders and co-workers to build relationships with us so that you won't be bullied all the time." Jia Zhang said unhappily.
"But, I don't have any money. How about you take out the pension money first, and I'll pay you back when my salary increases." Jia Dongxu knew that his mother just felt a little embarrassed recently and simply wanted to show off, so she gave the money to Jia Zhangshi.
"Impossible, go find Yi Zhonghai, he must still have money," Jia Zhang replied simply.
"Mom, it's gone. Think about it, my master has lost so much money at once, how could he still have money? Otherwise, let's not do it!" Jia Dongxu was sure that his mother would take the money for her own face.
"You have to return this money to me!" Seeing this, Jia Zhang had no choice but to agree.
"Okay! Then you give me the money quickly, I will go find the third uncle and ask him to help take care of it." Jia Dongxu originally wanted to find Yi Zhonghai but thinking of Yi Zhonghai's current situation, he decided to find Yan Bugui.
"No, why bother looking for him? That old stingy man is the best at calculating. Our family will definitely suffer." Jia Zhang disagreed.
"What should I do? My master is useless now!" Jia Dongxu said helplessly after hearing this.
"At worst, I can do it myself." Jia Zhang suggested that she would personally take care of it.
"You?" Jia Dongxu didn't believe his mother.
"I can even support you, so how can I not hold a full-month banquet? Okay, it's settled!" After saying this, Jia Zhang started to sew shoe soles again.
Jia Zhang was somewhat proud of herself for having succeeded in her plan: she would buy some cheap things and quote a high price when she came back. Qin Huairu couldn't go out anyway, and her son didn't understand anything, so she would definitely be able to make some money then.
In fact, Jia Zhang started thinking about this matter since Banggeng was born. She is a selfish person. Because on the day Qin Huairu gave birth, Jia Dongxu looked at her with dissatisfaction. She felt that relying solely on Jia Dongxu for retirement was not safe, and thought it would be better to make more money for security. So today's farce happened.
It has to be said that the mother and son are really of the same lineage. The mother calculated the grandson's full-month banquet, and the son calculated the mother's pension money. But now it seems that Jia Zhang is still one step ahead. Jia Dongxu probably never dreamed that his mother would calculate to make money from the child's full-month banquet.
The next day, Jia Zhangshi did not wait for Qin Huairu to wake her up as usual. She got up before dawn, washed up, and hurried to the vegetable market.
Because she was using her own money this time, and she wanted to make a profit, so she was particularly stingy. In this way, Jia Zhang did not gain anything after going around.
Jia Zhang was a little anxious after she had gone through the market without buying anything. When she saw the rotten vegetables thrown away by the stall owner, she had an idea: it would be a waste for a group of poor people to eat such good vegetables, so it would be better to pick up some rotten leaves, as they would not be able to tell the difference.
In this way, Jia Zhang started to wander around the market again. She picked up the rotten vegetables thrown away by the stall owners. You know what, she picked up a lot in a short while.
But you can pick up vegetables, but you can’t pick up meat.
"Eat you bastards to death!" Jia Zhang cursed as she moved towards the meat stall.
When Jia Zhang arrived at the meat stall, she found that there were quite a lot of people. She felt a little unhappy, pouted her lips, and looked around to see if she could cut in line.
At this moment, a young man who looked a bit vulgar came over with a swagger, ignoring the disgust of others, and squeezed directly behind a middle-aged man wearing glasses and carrying a lot of things. Seeing this, Jia Zhang immediately followed him.
After Jia Zhang squeezed past, she discovered something was wrong. The young man in front of her was not watching the butcher selling meat like the others, but was staring at the middle-aged man in front of him.
"Did you run into a thief?" After all, Jia Zhang was experienced in life and sensed that there was something wrong with the man in front of her. However, she did not warn him out loud. She just clenched the money in her hand and watched the excitement silently. She felt happy in her heart: Who asked you to buy so many things to show that you are rich? You deserve to be robbed.
As expected, after the middle-aged man bought the meat, he felt uncomfortable carrying it, so he put down his things and prepared to sort them out. The wretched young man took action and stole the handkerchief that the middle-aged man had put his money in, and then left. When the middle-aged man had packed up his things, he subconsciously touched the pocket where his money was and found that the money was gone. He turned around and saw the young man who had just walked out a few steps.
"The young comrade in front? Wait!"
After hearing this, the thief thought he was discovered and ran away. The middle-aged man saw him and hurriedly chased after him, shouting "Catch the thief" as he ran.
Jia Zhang looked at the middle-aged man who was chasing her out, and after a moment's thought, she came up with an idea. She picked up the meat that the middle-aged man had thrown on the ground, turned around and walked away quickly, shouting about dividing the things as she walked.
If Jia Zhang did this in the Republic of China, there would be no trouble. After all, in the chaotic times, everyone was struggling to survive. But now that New China has been established for five years, the people have experienced the long-lost peace and naturally will not do such things.
But Jia Zhangshi didn't know! Since Qin Huairu married into the Jia family, she had no communication with the outside world, so naturally she didn't understand the changes in society. Jia Dongxu got married in early 51. Before that, the country was busy arresting spies and had no time to take care of ruffians. When the country began to clean up ruffians and stabilize social atmosphere, Qin Huairu was already running the housework in the Jia family, and she knew nothing about this situation.
So when Jia Zhang encountered this situation today, she did what they did during the Republic of China period, robbing and running away. However, she was smarter and worried that she would be easily found if she was alone, so she encouraged everyone to do it together. If Jia Zhang didn't walk so fast, or didn't lower her head to hurry, she would find that everyone looked at her as if she was a fool.
"Stop, lady in front, the meat is not yours. Return it to me!" The butcher wanted to stop Jia Zhang.
However, after hearing this, Jia Zhang walked even faster, cursing the butcher in her heart for being nosy: You must be dreaming if you want me to go back!
At the Jia family, Qin Huairu looked at the door with some worry. Jia Zhang left before dawn today, and three hours have passed and she still hasn't returned. She was not worried that Jia Zhang would suffer any loss, but was afraid that she would cause trouble and bring trouble to the family.
With a bang, Jia Zhang came into the room and closed the door directly, then picked up the water on the table and drank it in big gulps.
"Mother-in-law, what's wrong with you? Why are you so anxious?" Although she wished that Jia Zhang would die, she still looked at her with a worried look on her face.
"What could possibly happen to me? I just left in a hurry to see how the things I bought today were." Jia Zhang was still thinking about getting some benefits, so naturally she couldn't let Qin Huairu know about her affairs.
"Mother-in-law, the meat you bought today is really good. It's not easy to buy normally!" Qin Huairu said as she looked at what Jia Zhang bought.
"What do you know? I queued up early in the morning to buy the meat, so of course it's good. If you were as lazy as you, you wouldn't be able to buy it. Now go and watch over the stalks. If anything happens to my precious grandson, I'll punish you."
Jia Zhang knew that Qin Huairu was smart and was afraid that she would find out, so she drove her away directly.
