Chapter 36 The shrew comes to the door

As a result of carrying large and small bags home, Xin Wenfang was chased by Grandma Xin with a broom and whipped.

Although Grandma Xin walked tremblingly with her little feet, she ran with a terrifying energy. Panting heavily, she swung the broom and scolded Xin Wenfang, "I'll kill you, you prodigal son! If you have two dollars, you won't be able to find the North. You'll be swaying." Is it right, your daughter and son will live without eating and drinking water?! Can you? I will ask you if you can?!"

"No!" Mother Xin, who was thankless for buying clothes for her parents, was ashamed in front of the three children. She stopped and stopped running, blushing and grabbed the broom that Grandma Xin swung over, " Oops, I know I was wrong, this is not the first time I have extra money at home, your elders said how many years have passed since you bought new clothes, and you wore ragged cotton-padded jackets and rotten cotton-padded shoes with leaky big toes. Can you bear it?"

My family is used to being poor, but I didn't expect to get rich one day. Although it's just a small fortune, to put it bluntly, the broken house is still leaking, and I don't have the money to build a new house now, but seeing the Chinese New Year, my parents are still wearing clothes. If she is in rags, it's okay if she has no money. If she has money, Xin Wenfang doesn't buy clothes for her parents, even if others don't tell her, she can slap herself.

She can't be an unfilial daughter!

Grandma Xin couldn't pull the broom, even if Xin Wenfang said so, she still didn't let her go, "You damn girl, you're right, I have clothes for your father, these cotton jackets and black leather shoes, what do they look like, hurry up! If you give it back to someone, you can get two dollars back. You are a man with children, and there will be plenty of places for children to spend money in the future. We two old people don’t care about such foreign things!"

Clothes can be used as food, clothes can be as important as grandchildren, and rags and cotton jackets can be repaired for the New Year, so why spend money on appearances, this girl asked her to save more money for the children to use in the future, why didn't she know!

No one understood the old mother's stubbornness better than Xin Wenfang. If she didn't give an explanation today, the old couple wouldn't be able to wear these clothes.

Suddenly glanced at his worried son, Xin Wenfang's eyes lit up, and said, "Mom, your embroidered padded jacket and padded leather shoes are all chosen by your precious grandson. Dongzi also said that the milk is designated to look good, so I'm afraid You are freezing at home, buying clothes for you is a child's filial piety, the family will live better and better with a lobster restaurant in the future, so you can relax."

"Dongzi really picked it?" The old lady was taken aback, and her wrinkled old face couldn't help but burst into a smile, "Well, I said, why are these clothes so beautiful? My precious grandson's eyesight is good for feelings!"

It's not that the old lady doesn't like clothes, she looks good at them, but she doesn't want to spend the money.

Obviously just now she had a stern face as if she was going to kill her daughter, but when she heard that her grandson chose the clothes for her, her attitude immediately changed.

Old children, old children, old people are like children when they are old. How could Xin Andong not know what Xin's mother meant, but grandma's clothes were indeed well chosen by him. He nodded and took the broom from grandma's hand with a smile , Said: "Grandma, I was confused to find this padded jacket that slightly fits your temperament. You can't let me down."

"What kind of temperament, grandma can't understand, you child, what kind of money are you spending on grandpa!" Grandma Xin touched her grandson's head, both happy and distressed about money.

The grandson came out, and each of them supported the two. Xin Andong talked and coaxed the grandparents to accept the new clothes. Under the coaxing of the grandchildren, the old couple put on the new clothes with blushing faces and excitedly.Grandma Xin was a little uncomfortable in brand new clothes, but she had to say that the clothes chosen by her grandson were really good, thick and warm, but the leather shoes were too dusty, so she might not be able to wear them casually in the future. That's fine, she feeds the chickens every day How can a vegetable grower spoil that clean baby.

Grandma Xin decided to keep the black leather shoes in her closet. They were bought by her grandson, and she plans to pass them on to her eldest daughter when she is gone a hundred years later...

The lobster restaurant in the county couldn't leave people, so they gave clothes to the old man, and the five members of Xin's family were ready to go back.

On the way, Xin Wenfang accidentally saw her son carrying a bamboo basket covered with a piece of blue cloth, and opened it suspiciously, "Why did you get so many eggs, your milk gave it to you?" The family was too old to walk. A hen can lay so many eggs.

After the family conditions improved, Xin Wenfang was willing to feed her children good food. Xin Andong's height increased by more than five centimeters in the past two months. Although his body was still thinner than ordinary people, and his small white face looked frail, his strength was much higher than before. It's more than a star and a half.

He effortlessly carried a basket full of eggs, and told Xin Wenfang of his plan, "Mom, I collected these from Aunt Cheng and Aunt Chun's next door. It's cold, and I'm going to cook some tea eggs for sale. "Some time ago, the lobster restaurant was short of people, and now the two waiters who have been recruited can get started slowly. The burden on Xin Andong's shoulders is much lighter, so he wants to make money.

What's more, today's mother is reluctant to buy clothes because she has no money, which really makes him ashamed as a son, and decides to earn money well. From now on, mother can choose clothes as she pleases!

"Little brother, do you know how to make tea eggs?" Xin Anqiu asked in surprise.

There are also tea eggs sold in the county, but there are relatively few, and not everyone knows how to do it.

Xin Andong nodded, "Yes, it's actually not difficult, tea leaves, add some star anise, cinnamon and star anise, and the boiled tea eggs won't taste bad."

"Oh, isn't that another way to earn money?" Since starting a business, Xin Wenfang has been full of business ideas. When her son proposed selling tea eggs, the first thing she thought of was how to make money, "Dongzi, you little egg If we don’t have enough, we still need to buy them, and when we go back to the store, let your father set up a coal stove and put it at the door, cook some tea eggs and sell it, the business is sure to be good.”

Xin Andong also had the same plan, but he thought more about it, "The lobster restaurant is also good for selling tea eggs, but Mom, I want to try to get some to bring to school. It's cold now. Besides eating in the school cafeteria, there are many more. Because students don’t have heating tools, they can only eat cold and hard steamed buns and eat cold dishes and rice. If they can have warm and delicious tea eggs, I believe many students will not be stingy.”

Tea eggs are not expensive. Students who are rich don’t care about the cost of one or two tea eggs. Students who have no money can occasionally indulge in luxury. It can be said that Xin Andong has never worried about selling tea eggs since he planned to sell them at school. stay home.

"It's a good idea, but can the school let you mess around, and if you want to study, our family depends on you, Dongzi, you can't fool your mother and me!"

Xin Andong is Xin Wenfang's treasure. The fact that the family is able to run a business so prosperously is the youngest son's idea of ​​making money, but what she cares most about is his son's study. It doesn't matter whether he earns money or not. Anyway, there are her and Da Zhuang, but Learning is something that affects a lifetime, Xin Wenfang will never let his son pick sesame seeds and lose watermelon.

"Mom, don't worry, I have to be responsible for myself, I don't dare to be obedient, and I only sell lunch for a while, and I should still be in class at other times."

The knowledge of junior high school is really too simple for Xin Andong. Developing a sideline business is his long-term plan. Selling tea eggs is only the first step. Of course, he can't tell Xin's mother these things.

Xin Wenfang doesn't know what kind of temperament her son is. Don't look at him as if he is asking for instructions today. Xin Wenfang dares to guarantee that her son will not give up no matter whether she agrees or not, so she has no choice but to warn, "You said, remember, If the final grades fall, I won’t smoke you!”

Xin Andong immediately smiled, "Thank you, Mom."

……

The family talked and laughed, and walked for about half an hour before arriving at the county seat. When they were about to reach the lobster restaurant, the third sister suddenly pointed in front of her and asked in confusion, "What's the matter with the noisy dharma body at the door of our store? "

Xin Andong raised his eyes and saw that a group of people were packed tightly around him, and he could also hear the noisy voices inside. He had an intuition that it was not a good thing.

Seeing that they finally came back, the waiter Xiao Hu breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Xin Wenfang for help, and said anxiously, "Miss Boss, you are here, this person named Erniang Xu is clamoring to see you, and said that you sold your daughter and took her in." The family’s money, now that my daughter has snatched it back, I must return the money to her!”

She pointed at the old woman who was lying on the ground, rolling around and refusing to get up, with a resentful and depressed expression on her face.

Hearing Xu Erniang's name, the entire Xin family suddenly felt like blowing the battle horn, and Xin Wenfang pushed away the crowd with a straight face.

"Xu Erniang! I didn't expect it to be you. You have the nerve to come to ask for money. What kind of cruelty did you, a vicious woman, torture my erya? I haven't settled with you yet. For spreading rumors, I will tear your rotten mouth out!"

At the beginning, the contract was a long-term job, and the child brides-in-law only made a verbal agreement to each other. Xu Erniang promised that if Erya disagreed, she would not be assigned to her three sons in the future.

Xu Erniang has no other skills, and Sapo has no experience like her. She sat on the ground and yelled, "I am wronged! Ever since Erya came to my house, I have provided her with delicious food and drink to prevent her from suffering, and she fell down by herself. What can I do if my brain is broken? People need to take care of the land in the fields, and I have to wash and cook when I get home. I am busy every day. It is benevolent for me to feed you. I can't serve her like a young lady!"

"You! What nonsense are you talking about, when did our An Xia look like a landlord lady!"

This era has just passed through the difficult, difficult and gloomy period, and the words "stinky old nine", the landlord, are kept secret. If anyone is given this title, it will be cast aside by thousands of people. Erya is going to hell!

Poisonous woman, devoid of conscience!

Although Xin Anxia would sometimes react to people since she came back, she usually kept her head buried in trepidation without saying anything, but when she heard Xu Erniang's voice, she covered her head like a conditioned reflex and yelled in horror, "Ah!! ah!!!"

This is the extent of being beaten so badly that one hears the sound and turns pale with fright. Xin Andong is so distressed that he hugs the second sister and coaxes softly, "Second sister, don't be afraid, no one will hurt you, trust me."

The spectators around were pointing their fingers one by one. The shopkeepers who rely on the Xin family to do business here don’t know the silly girl that the Xin family suddenly found. She can be frightened, but she is often well-behaved, and this is the first time she suddenly screamed crazily today.

For a moment, the eyes of Xu Erniang, who was looking at the ground, changed immediately.
