Chapter 6: Planting
The eldest son now took the initiative to say, could she still insist on giving the house to her younger son? Wouldn't she be disconnected from her elder son?
Although Yu's mother is usually arrogant, she also cares about her reputation. She doesn't say anything outside. Now she is so bright that she can't do anything that makes people talk about.
Thinking of such a good opportunity, he missed the relationship with his youngest son. Yu's mother only felt that there was a knife piercing her heart.
Yu Mother's chest felt aching faintly, and he nodded reluctantly, but he was cautious and refused to say a good thing, saying, "The factory is far away from home, I want to mess around and help your brother and their children every day, so you should live there."
Yu Dahai had already forced out his smile and froze.
Yu Fang was smart and asked her mother back, "Mom, you are unwilling to say anything about your elder brother, what's the embarrassment of your son? In order to get your elder brother back to the city, my father could have rested for a few days before going to work. Didn't you make the decision to let my father leave early and ask his elder brother to come back to take over?"
Yu's mother knew that her daughter was for her own good, so she was holding her breath in her heart, but she could only act with her daughter. "It doesn't matter how much I did. Just three of you brothers and sisters are doing well, and I'm content."
Yu Dahai also agreed, just saying that he would worry his parents and be filial to them in the future. He said a lot of good things, but Yu's mother's face did not recover.
Since there is a public housing unit, there is no need to clean the wing room. Yu's father took Yu Dahai to the wing room to get the wooden boards that he had been keeping for furniture and putting on the bed under the window of the east house.
Gao Xiufen was not used by his mother, so he cleaned the house from inside to outside, and had a clothes rod hanging from the washing clothes, and there were flags hanging in the yard.
In the kitchen, Gao Xiufen was hammering her waist and gritted her teeth and stood up. Seeing Yu Dahai coming in, she immediately bent down and twisted the rag. When someone came in, she pretended to straighten her waist.
She smiled sweetly, "Thank you for your hard work in the sea."
The beautiful cheeks are like a spring water, the eyes are narrowed and the sweet smile comes from the heart, like the warm light in winter, which makes people feel warm all over.
Yu Dahai's heart, which was exhausted and just cold by his mother, finally had a hint of warmth. He unconsciously curled up the corners of his lips, "It's not hard. Don't be too tired. You can drive a car for one night and work at home is not bad for this day."
As expected, it’s true that someone is suffering from being a fool.
Gao Xiufen pretended to be shy and nodded, watching Yu Dahai enter the house before curling her lips. She laid the foundation for her good daughter-in-law's rules. When Zhao Hongmei comes in the future, she will be a woman who is not as good as her ex-wife. With such a group of people in the Yu family, life must be very exciting, right?
For this excitement, she has to work hard to pretend now.
Now every family lives a tight life. There are only two people in the Yu family who make money. One is Yu Dahai’s sister-in-law Zhou Hanxiu who works as a salesperson in a department store. Unfortunately, the money he earns is never paid to his home. After Yu’s father left, Yu Dahai came back to take over. The 38.6 yuan he earns every month is only 8.6 yuan left, and the rest is left to the family. Including Gao Xiufen’s ten people relying on 30 yuan, it shows how tight life is.
The one-meter-high rice jar contained corn flour. Gao Xiufen leaned down with his hands. At a height of one hand, this corn flour was only enough for ten people to eat for four or five days, so it was necessary to save money. Gao Xiufen curled her lips, but she looked down on her as a rural person.
As for the dishes, I only saw two cabbages and half a frame of potatoes. Gao Xiufen cut the shredded potatoes, fryed them with water and changed them a few times. The broken cabbage glutinous rice balls were also chopped into fillings, put them together with the shredded potatoes and mixed them into fillings, squeezed them into balls with oil and salt, and then rolled them into a ball with your hands. Then rolled the filling balls on the corn flour for a few times, clenched them after rolling, and then put them on the corn flour and rolled them. This was repeated several times to make corn flour vegetable balls.
Inside, Yu's mother was still talking to her daughter in a low voice. At this time, there was no outsider. Yu Fang opened the conversation, "Mom, I think my sister-in-law is not a simple one. Once she arrived at our house, she would make you confused after a few words."
Yu's mother said unhappily, "I have never heard good things in my life, right? Can I be coaxed by a few words from her?"
Yu Fang curled her lips, "Mom, why did you tell him when my elder brother came back? You said that woman would not let her enter our door even if she came. Now you let her in, but you still stay."
"Damn girl, do you have to piss me off to death, right?" Yu's mother dug her daughter angrily, "Who am I doing this for? It's not for you. Your second brother doesn't go to work, and you go back to your parents' home. Now the whole family is supported by your elder brother. If he has a powerful wife, what will you do? I thought about it and the daughter-in-law in the countryside is also good, easy to control."
Yu Fang thought that when the new sister-in-law came, she didn't let her parents say something bad. Seeing that her mother wanted to hold on to each other, she just felt that her mother was simply thinking. Seeing that her brother came in, she stopped talking.
Yu's mother also got off the kang, "I have to cook. Now the family has a large population, 30 yuan a month, and can only eat half full. Adults can tolerate it. The child is still young, so what should I do?"
Yu Dahai heard this and knew that his mother was saying this to him, but he thought that he could not have a penny at work. If he moved out in the future, would he and his wife not eat or drink?
Yu's mother walked slowly, but she left the inner room. Before she could wait for her son's words, she cursed in her heart. She looked up and saw rows of orange corn flour buns placed in the big pot of Shiyin. She immediately started to curse with pain.
"Oh, this is a life-threatening thing. There are only a little bit of bracted rice in the house. You have made the seven-day ration for a day. What should you eat in the future? You are a spendthrift, and you will ruin our Yu family as soon as you enter the door."
Gao Xiufen was not angry when she was scolded. Fortunately, she smiled and explained with a temper, "Mom, I made a dish dumpling for picking corn flour, which contained shredded beans and shredded potatoes, and some cabbage were added."
When he heard about cabbage, Yu's mother felt sorry for her two cabbages, "My cabbage..."
Gao Xiufen said with the flow, "I broke up four cabbage leaves and put them in shredded potatoes to borrow the flavor."
Yu's mother:...
Gao Xiufen saw her mother-in-law's face turned green and red, and found a way for her. "Dahai used to say that my mother was a good life expert. I thought that the first day I went home to cook, so I didn't ask my mother. Originally, two cabbage leaves were enough, but I decided to use four cabbage leaves. I knew that this was wrong and I would definitely change it in the future. I will forgive me once."
What could Yu's mother say, and said angrily, "Okay, as long as you know you're wrong, you can't waste it like this next time. Our family has a large population, so we rely on the sea to support the family alone. If you feel sorry for the sea, be careful."
Gao Xiufen simply responded, "Mom, I've recorded it."
Yu Dahai, who came out of the inner room, felt his heart sank again when he saw this scene. Usually, his second brother wanted to eat dumplings, and each person had half a pound of white noodles, and another 81 pound of white noodles, plus one pound of pork, and two or three yuan a meal of dumplings. He never felt sorry for his mother.
