The Eldest Sister is Like a Stepmother [60’s]

When Lin Yiyi walked away, Qin Xiangju found that the clothes that her daughter-in-law had prepared for her were not only the coats and pants, but also the insides. Although the materials were all ordinary, the daughter-in-law had prepared them inside and out. This was brand new. Qin Xiangju was deeply moved.

Not to mention Qin Xiangju, even Xiao Daqiang, from childhood to adulthood, has new clothes and new pants, except when he got married, this time seems to be the first time. It used to be either a dress or a pair of pants.

After Lin Yiyi came out, she went to find Xiao Yu, and Qin Xiangju and his wife arranged for the bed in the kitchen. Lin Yiyi: "Brother Yu." She stretched out a finger and ticked at him.

When Jin Yu saw it, he couldn't help but smile, and he walked towards her.

When he got close, Lin Yiyi took his arm and entered the room. When Jin Yu saw it, his heart was hot, what is this for?

Of course Lin Yiyi didn't know what her man was thinking, she took him into the house and said, "I don't have your father's underwear and underwear, you give him yours, give him what you wore before, don't give it to me the ones you bought."

Xiao Yu: "Okay, I see." His wife bought it, but he was not willing to give it.

the next day

Qin Xiangju and Xiao Daqiang got up early, and Xiao Daqiang had to go back to work in the commune. He only had one day off on Sundays a week. Lin Yiyi also got up early and couldn't sleep on weekends. Last night, she gave the electric fan to the second old man. It was hot here, and he couldn't sleep even more.

During breakfast, Qin Xiangju asked, "The foundation on your side has been approved, and the blue bricks from the commune have also been shipped over. They are now placed in our yard. When do you plan to build the house?"

Lin Yiyi said: "I originally planned to start again after the trading day, this time I can start it when I go back. I have prepared the drawings. The layout is the same as that of my mother's house, except that the area is larger than that of theirs. Call for us."

Qin Xiangju thought for a while and said, "Then I will go back today and ask your grandfather to call someone. The wages will be paid according to the wages of your mother's house, and the wages will not include meals." When it comes to the house, the man in the family has to come forward. Xiao Daqiang is going to work, and Grandpa Xiao is still strong, so the job of calling people is left to him.

Lin Yiyi said, "Okay." After saying that, she went back to her room and took out 200 yuan, "Mother, take this money first, and then tell me if it's not enough."

Qin Xiangju didn't ask for it: "We have money here, let's put it up first, and when the house is ready, I'll calculate it with you. And the house in your hometown, you

If we build a new house, the house will definitely not live. What are you going to do about it? "The foundation of Lin Yiyi's house is not next to Xiao's house. It is separated from Xiao's house by two or three houses, but it is only separated by two or three houses, so it is still close.

Lin Yiyi said, "Do you have any advice, mother?"

Qin Xiangju said: "The eldest and the third want a house. They both have sons, but there is only one house. Let them draw lots, but how much do you plan to set the price of this house?"

Lin Yiyi was stunned, she thought Qin Xiangju would let her take out the house directly, but did not expect that the big house and the third house would be paid for. For this reason, she once again felt that Qin Xiangju was a reliable mother-in-law. She had to say that having a reliable mother-in-law was really important.

Although the elders of Xiao’s parents also valued the second room and the third room, and if the second room was in good condition, they also wanted the second room to take care of the first room and the third room, but in their hearts, the second room was the most important thing, or in other words, it was Xiao Yu. Son (grandson). Besides, the family has been separated. Of course, the house has to be bought with money. If the second room is not in good condition, they will give it away.

Xiao Yu said, "The Lin family's house will cost about 300 yuan. According to this calculation, one room costs 70 or 80 yuan, and I don't make any money from my brother. One room is only 60 yuan." That room was large, so seventy or eighty was about the same. He quoted sixty, one was cheaper for his brother, which made him feel comfortable, and the other was that even if he gave his brother the benefit, he was no less than twenty. This is related to money. He said it was more suitable than his daughter-in-law. If her daughter-in-law said it was higher, the old family would have an idea.

Xiao Daqiang: "Okay, then sixty. When the time comes, the lottery will be given to whoever wins the lottery."

Qin Xiangju said: "The big room is estimated to be able to get 60, but the third room can't get 60." The third one used all the money to buy milk powder, and the milk powder was ten yuan a can, which was brought by Lin Yiyi. Although I only eat milk powder for a few months in the first few months, and I eat rice noodles in the back, the money of Sanfang is indeed tight. Although it is said that rice noodles can be eaten later, milk powder is also prepared, and I have to feed a bowl from time to time. Speaking of which, it is also thanks to Lin Yiyi that she can get milk powder.

Xiao Daqiang said: "We have paid out the money. The second child, I will also say hello to you. The third child has a child, your mother will take out 200. This time, you will take out another 60 for your house. This money will wait for me in the future. If you and your mother can’t do it, they are all deducted from the distribution of property. Whoever family should get how much money will deduct the money, and the third family will also deduct 200 in the future.” Xiao Daqiang also has an account in his heart, he is the big Lin.

Six years in the army, about 200 a year, and there are 1200. If there is no accident in the future, when he and his wife go, the 1200 will be distributed to four children, and he has only one daughter.

What are the people in their life saving for? It's not that I want to leave more money for my children after a hundred years.

Xiao Yu said: "Let's talk about it when you have the money. Buy yourself something good if you have the money. Don't think about who to give the money to. Our brothers have grown up and will make money by themselves." Looking at the old father, Xiao Yu felt a little sad. He had a good head since he was a child, and went to school early. When he went to school, the country had not yet been liberated. The absence of liberation in the country meant that the outside world was a little chaotic, so when he went to school every day, his father accompanied him, and he had to send him off early in the morning. He went to school, and then his dad went to sell newspapers and picked him up after school. When the weather was bad, his father would carry him on his back. At that time, he was lying on his father's back. He felt that his father's back was so generous. Now, he is taller than his father, and his father... also old.

A person who has worked hard all his life and finally thinks about how much money he will give to the children after he dies, why is Jin Yu not sad? Later, when he grew up, he also went to sell newspapers. At that time, he thought, sell more newspapers, save some ocean, and then buy wine and meat for his father.

Time passed quickly, and now that he has a family and a business, he is no longer the boy who needs his father's back when it rains and needs his father's **** when he is in danger.

Xiao Daqiang smiled: "I know."

Lin Yiyi and Xiao Yu took them to the gate of the staff courtyard. Qin Xiangju also brought the crabs and shrimps that Lin Yiyi packed and asked her to take them back to Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao to taste.

Watching them walk away, Jin Yu said, "My father taught me when I first learned to read."

Lin Yiyi: "Huh?"

Jin Yu: "My father was a newsboy when he was young, and he was in contact with a lot of readers. When he grew up, he still sold newspapers. Therefore, he paid more attention to the education of the children at home. He admired the readers. When I was young, I hadn't started school yet. , my father taught me to read, but he knew only a limited number of words, so when he was selling newspapers, he would ask those who bought newspapers to teach him a few words, and then came back to teach me. Later, when he saw that I had a good memory, he would He sent me to study early. At that time, it was very difficult for a family like ours to send their children to study. Besides, we had four children, and he could not favor one over the other.

The third child was young at that time, so let’s not talk about it, my father sent me and my eldest brother to study, but I went to study, and my eldest brother was still at home. Although Xiaoling was the same age as me, I went to school early.

So she didn't go either, after all, according to my age, I was still young at that time. Later, my eldest brother felt that studying was hard, and he didn’t want to study anymore, so I was the only one at home studying. After I come back from school, I will teach my eldest brother and Xiaoling to read. My eldest brother stopped reading, and would carry a shoebox to clean the shoes of wealthy people. He didn’t like to talk, but he was honest. Occasionally, he could earn a few oceans, and then he would buy snacks for me secretly. "Jin Woo remembered the time when he was poor, but also happy.

Of course, now the conditions are better than before, and he is naturally happy when he has someone with whom he wants to spend his whole life, but this happiness is different from the happiness he used to be.

Lin Yiyi said: "So now, you have achieved something, and they are all proud of you."

Jin Woo smiled: "Thank you."

Lin Yiyi: "Thank me for what?"

Jin-Woo: "Thank you...for the idea of ​​a nursery school so that Xiaorui and Xiaozhu can go to school."

Lin Yiyi: "I'm not for them, I just think that there is such an idea. If it works, it's good." This is the first time Xiao Yu told him about the Xiao family. She knew that Xiao Yu was a person who attached great importance to feelings, so she tried to be polite to Xiao's family. She didn't want to embarrass him. Of course, that was also because he always stood in her position. People's understanding is mutual. He stands in her position, agrees with her that she wants to separate the family, stands in her position, agrees with her to help the family, although she helps the family with his own money, but some people are not generous.

In fact, to put it bluntly, she can help the family with her manuscript fee, so some men will say, why can't he help the family with his salary?

But Jin Woo is different, he will stand in her position and support her silently.

So for Lin Yiyi, she was very moved. She will be good to Xiao's parents because of the filial piety of this man, but she never said it. It is because of this man's support that she can live comfortably in such an age, and it is also because of the goodness of Xiao's parents. On the contrary, if she is married, she also expects her husband to be filial to her parents.

In the afternoon, the four brothers of the Lin family also returned to the countryside. Brother Lin went with his brothers, but he didn't want to part with his sister and brother-in-law. There are little friends in the countryside, and there are more places to play, which is much more interesting than in the county town.

Datang production team

Qin Xiangju returned to the country early, so she went home first to put away the crabs and shrimps. She went back wearing new clothes. Although the colors were ordinary, there were no patches on the clothes and the fabrics were new, so it was easy to see.

It's new clothes.

Qi Spinach was jealous. The second room gives cloth to the mother-in-law every year. The mother-in-law only makes new clothes for grandpa and grandma, and new clothes for the children of the third room, but not for the big room. At this moment, my mother-in-law came back wearing a new set of clothes, and I don't need to guess to know that it was bought by the second house. She really wants her mother-in-law's cloth, not to make clothes for her children, but for herself. She hasn't made new clothes for several years, and what about the second room? Lin Yiyi has a lot of new clothes. Even the padded jacket is one piece a year, both long and short. This person is more mad than others. But unfortunately, she can't show it yet.

Qin Xiangju naturally would not borrow flowers to thank Buddha. The second room brings back two kilograms of meat every month. There is a lot of meat. She makes a bowl of broth for the third room to replenish her body. It’s nothing. The cloth is all that’s needed for a year. The second room honors their four elders. If you give it out, what will the second room think? So she only made clothes for Grandpa Xiao and Grandma Xiao, and hid the rest.

Liang: "Mother, are you back?"

Qi Spinach: "Mother, what did you bring back? The second brother and sister gave Mother a lot of good things, right?"

Qin Xiangju didn't even want to fart on the spinach, she felt it was a waste to fart on the spinach. She said to Mrs Liang, "I'm back, are you all right at home?"

Mrs. Liang: "With grandma here, what will happen?" Mrs. Liang didn't talk much before, but now that she has a son, she has some confidence, so she can speak. Besides, she is a person who can look at people's faces. She usually listens to what Lin Yiyi has to say. She has also caught a little trick, so she will occasionally say a few nice words.

Grandma Xiao came out of the main room: "Why are you here so early? Have you had breakfast?"

Qin Xiangju: "I've eaten it. No, my second wife asked me to bring crabs and shrimps for you and my father to try. There are two more things I want to tell my father."

Grandma Xiao: "It's still the second daughter-in-law who remembers our two old guys."

Grandpa Xiao: "What's the matter?"

Qin Xiangju: "One is about the second family's house. The second family is planning to build a house. Let the parents make up their minds and find someone to build the house. The salary is based on the previous Lin family's, and the house layout is also based on the Lin family's."

Grandpa Xiao: "Sure, I'll look for someone later. Everyone isn't working at the moment, so it's a good idea to start a house."

Qin Xiangju: "The other thing is the nursery school. The second daughter-in-law said that there is no nursery school in our commune, and the children of the peasant family can't be sent to the county town to go to the nursery school, so she asked me to tell the brigade captain and let our brigade open one. nursery."

Grandpa Xiao

stunned.

Qin Xiangju said: "The second daughter-in-law said that children will be wiser if they receive education earlier. There is a nursery school in the brigade, and our family Xiaorui and Xiaozhu can also go to the nursery school. Under our nose, we can also rest assured. Really. If it is placed in the elementary school of Shanglin Brigade, if something happens, we will not care."

Grandma Xiao said, "The second daughter-in-law is a good idea. She really has a pen. People are smart."

Qi Spinach didn't care that her mother-in-law didn't give her face just now, she hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, this is good, if our brigade has a nursery, Xiaorui and Xiaozhu can go there." She didn't have to send the child to her. When she went to Shanglin Production Brigade Elementary School, she just wanted the children to study. If there was a nursery in her brigade, how could she send it to another place to be taken care of by someone else's younger brother? Of course she was worried, but it wasn't that she didn't have it before. way? On this matter, Qi Spinach really thanked Lin Yiyi.

Grandpa Xiao said, "Let's go, I'll go find the captain with you."

Qin Xiangju: "Hey."

Grandma Xiao was fine, so she followed. Then Qi Spinach also followed, and finally Liang went with the child. It's better to go to listen. After two years, her son will be able to go to the nursery school.

The Xiao family can be said to be the first family in the Shangtang production brigade, not to mention in a brigade, in the Sunshine Commune. As the deputy director of Xiao Yu's Public Security Bureau, there is no official bigger than him in the entire commune. Lin Yiyi is also a well-known person who grows vegetables and raises pigs on the stove. Therefore, the Xiao family is very famous in their own production team. In the team, the Xiao family has more weight than the team leader's family.

When the captain saw Grandpa Xiao coming, he immediately said, "Uncle Xiao, why are you here?"

Grandpa Xiao smiled and said, "I'm fine here. It's just that my daughter-in-law has something to do. She just came back from the county town this morning. My granddaughter-in-law asked her to send you a message to the captain."

The captain said, "Comrade Lin Yiyi, is this good news?" He was also a little excited. The Xiao family benefited from planting vegetables on the stove, while the pig farm benefited from the Lin family and the Shanglin Chengyi Brigade. There were two workers in that brigade, and Lin Dajun also indirectly raised them. The pig farm serves as a small instructor. Lin Yiyi is the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family in the Shangtang production brigade, but the brigade has yet to take advantage of it, which makes the brigade captain a little itchy.

Now listening to Grandpa Xiao, is it possible that the benefits of their brigade are coming? So the captain is very

expect.

Qin Xiangju said: "It's like this. Our second wife said that the biggest difference between rural people and people in the county is that the starting point of education is different. We rural people have to consider even reading, but people in the county even start a nursery school. If you go to school, if you read early, your children must be smart early, so many children in rural areas are not as good as children in county towns.”

The captain said: "That's true, but there is no way. Who has this condition to send every child to school? And this is a family matter, and it is not easy for us outsiders to manage."

Qin Xiangju: "But our second daughter-in-law said that we can also help families who are willing to send their children to school."

Captain: "Sister-in-law, why can't I understand what you said? Why don't you hurry up and tell me the bottom line."

Qin Xiangju smiled: "Our second daughter-in-law wants our team to open a nursery."

Captain: "What?" Fortunately, there was no cigarette in his mouth, otherwise the cigarette **** would fall to the ground, and his mouth was open enough to swallow an egg.

Qin Xiangju: "...I don't know the specifics, but my daughter-in-law said, let our brigade open a nursery, so that the children in the brigade can also go to the nursery. Not to mention the early education, the children will also be taken. My daughter-in-law also said that for two catties of food a month, regardless of whether it is sweet potatoes or potatoes, everyone is definitely willing to pay. Even if it is to hire someone to take care of the children, this is also affordable, right? The tuition fee gives her twenty-three catties of food a month... I don't know the specifics, but my daughter-in-law said that this is the best for the reputation of our brigade."

What kind of person who can become a captain is not active? Even the fairest person can be selfish. The captain thought about Qin Xiangju's words carefully, and then said to Qin Xiangju, "I want to have a good talk with my niece and sister-in-law about this, sister-in-law, can you take me to the county seat?"

Qin Xiangju said: "Okay, what's the matter."

Brigade Captain: "Then let's go now. School will start in half a month. If we get it done before school starts, maybe our brigade's nursery school can be opened." The captain also wants to do a good job and let everyone see his credit.

Qin Xiangju: "In such a hurry?"

Grandma Xiao: "Go, there's nothing to do at home."

Qin Xiangju said: "Hey, that's fine, but I have to bring something."

The brigade captain said: "Our brigade's corn is fast.

The harvest is about to come, so I will bring some corn to my niece. "

Qin Xiangju hurriedly said: "How can this be done? It's something from the brigade, no no no."

The captain said: "Why not? I said yes." The captain also thought about it. Opening a nursery is not as simple as talking about it. He has to ask Lin Yiyi for the specific plan. If the nursery opens, it will be good for the team. Yes, so it's okay to take a few pounds of corn. For relationships within the brigade, of course, the brigade's stuff is used.

He was not the only one in the captain's office, there were also other village officials, and everyone heard about the nursery school's plan, so everyone had no opinion on the matter of the captain giving Lin Yiyi a few pounds of corn. To say something ugly, everyone also wants to have a good relationship with the second child of the Xiao family.

Grandpa Xiao said: "Well, it's not appropriate to use the items from the brigade to send things to our family one by one. The corn is sent, but the work points of our family will be deducted. When the grain is distributed, the work points of the corn will be deducted." Xiao Grandpa, as the invisible top leader of the Xiao family, still has a clear mind. Although it is okay for the brigade to send some corn to his daughter-in-law, it would be unpleasant if someone gossips about him. The Xiao family's work points are deducted, and everyone has nothing to say. After all, when the corn harvest is bumper, everyone will get some of it, but their family will taste it first.

Qin Xiangju: "Yes, yes, according to what my father-in-law said, we will deduct the work points from our family at that time." In late August, the corn was harvested. Now that the corn has been picked, it is fragrant and tender. Qin Xiangju thought of giving it to his son and daughter-in-law. It's really appropriate to send some corn.

After talking with the captain, Qin Xiangju went to pick some vegetables, including spinach and leeks grown by herself, as well as cucumbers, green beans, water spinach, etc. grown by others. Qin Xiangju exchanged food for other people's things. , the daughter-in-law treats them well, and they can't help but show it, so every time the daughter-in-law comes back, she will prepare some vegetables for her, there is no way, they can only send vegetables in a place like this. Fortunately, the daughter-in-law I like to eat vegetables.
