Chapter 101 Sister-in-law

  After dinner, Han Mingxiu saw that the time was almost up, so she got up to leave and went to Uncle Gao's house.

  At this point, Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao have finished their lunch break, and are about to go out to sweep the street.

Han Mingxiu knew that they were in a hurry to work without much delay. He handed them the corn cobs and two pairs of shoes he had brought, and put the clothes made by Gao Aunt for him in the back basket, and left in a hurry. .

After that, she went to the grocery store and bought ten catties of meat there, including two catties of ribs and three catties of pork belly. When she saw a beef seller, she bought five catties of beef shank and prepared to go home to make some sauce. Beef to eat.

  This year, every family has difficulties. Everyone can buy meat in catties. Han Mingxiu bought ten catties at once. Such a big deal will inevitably attract people's attention.

At the other end of the grocery store, a short and ugly man in his fifties also noticed Han Mingxiu. While staring at Han Mingxiu, he stabbed the woman next to him and said, "Hey, take a look. Is that girl your niece?"

Han Lijuan is standing in front of a meat stall picking meat. Today is her son’s twelfth birthday. She promised the child to make dumplings for him, so she gritted her teeth and used a dollar to buy a piece of meat. .

However, she is not familiar with the salesperson in the grocery store, and she is afraid that others will not sell her fat, so she specially invited her husband, who works as a cook in the government cafeteria, to buy it together. Because of work, her husband often comes out to the government. When buying meat in the cafeteria, I'm familiar with these salespersons, and acquaintances are easy to talk to, so the couple came together.

  At this time, Han Lijuan was focusing on picking meat. When she heard her man say this, she turned her head and suddenly saw Han Mingxiu who was buying beef in front of a meat stall in the distance.

  Han Lijuan has been married in the city for more than ten years. During this period, she only went back to her natal house three times. She didn’t say a few words to her niece, Han Mingxiu, so she didn’t recognize her.

  It’s just that Han Mingxiu and Han Mingyu look very similar, and even the voices are very similar. Based on this, she also thinks that the girl in front of her is probably her niece.

  But, isn’t her niece in the countryside? Why did you come to the city? Did you buy that older meat all at once? Where did she get the money?

Han Lijuan stared at Han Mingxiu, and when she saw that she bought five catties of beef tendon meat at once, her eyes burst into flames. No matter whether she was her niece or not, try it first, otherwise there would be no such shop after passing this village. Child.

  She put down the big piece of fat she was picking in her hand, walked a few steps to Han Mingxiu's side, and tentatively called, "Xiu!"

  Han Mingxiu had already bought the meat, and was loading it in the back basket. When she heard someone calling her, she turned her head and saw a woman in her thirties looking at her with uncertain eyes.

  Han Mingxiu searched her memory, and found this person vaguely. It turned out to be her old aunt.

Han Mingxiu's impression of an aunt is not good. This aunt is the same as her grandmother. She is selfish, greedy and mean. After marrying in the city, she is afraid of being exposed to her natal family. For more than ten years, she doesn’t go back to her natal family, even Han Mingxiu’s. She didn't come back even after her father and mother died. When she got married, Han Mingxiu's father and mother gave her five yuan to squeeze her pocket.

For such an aunt, Han Mingxiu is really not interested in recognizing her. She dare to say that if this old aunt took the initiative to talk to her, she must have seen her buying the meat, otherwise if she met her elsewhere, she would even meet her. She had to pretend not to recognize it.

  It’s just that now everyone is standing in front of her and greeted her, and she has to respond.

   "Hehe, old aunt, what a coincidence, you also buy meat!" She said with a smile.

   "Yeah, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here, why would you buy so much meat at once? Can you eat it alone?"

  Han Lijuan asked as she watched Han Mingxiu put the large piece of beef into the back basket with her eyes shining brightly.

  What she saw was really bright. In addition to the big piece of beef that she just bought, there was a big piece of pork belly and a lot of ribs in this girl's back basket. How much do these old things cost and how much? Isn't she the only one left in her family? Where did she get the money for these meat tickets to buy meat?

  Han Mingxiu covered the back basket and said while carrying the back basket on her body, “I didn’t buy this by myself. I came to the city to do something to help others.”

  In other words, this meat is not her own, telling her not to worry about it, it's useless to worry about it.

  However, the meat was delivered to the door, how could Han Lijuan not worry about it? She didn't care whose niece was carrying the meat in her back basket, as long as she had the opportunity to coax her, it would be her meat.

"Really, that's just right. My aunt also buys meat. Don't rush back later, and go to my aunt's house to eat dumplings with my aunt." Han Lijuan took Han Mingxiu's hand and was affectionate. I don’t know, I thought how much her aunt loved her niece.

  Han Mingxiu is not a real 16-year-old girl, how could she be confused by Han Lijuan’s rhetoric? She is in the mirror. If you go with her, she will have to do half of the calculation if the meat in the basket is not exhausted. She will go with her only if there is a pit in her head.

   "No aunt, I have something to do, next time." Han Mingxiu withdrew her hand and said lukewarmly.

When Han Lijuan saw that she refused to agree, she was anxious, moved out of her elder status, and said in amazement, "Look at your child, why are you so strange? It's all at the door of my aunt's house, why don't you go to my aunt's house for a meal? Why? Do you think your old aunt’s meal is not good or look down on your old aunt?”

Han Mingxiu almost laughed aloud when she looked at her big-hearted look. You said that you want to put on the elder's score, but you have to act like an elder first, a relative who has not been in contact for more than ten years. , I just want to put on the elder's profile when I meet. Why is this face so big?

However, thinking that more is worse than less, Han Mingxiu did not tear her face to her, she said with a smile, "Aunty, you are so worried, I don't want to go, or there are a lot of things to buy, no Kung fu, or else, wait until I'm done buying and then go to your house."

As soon as Han Lijuan heard that she was going to buy something, her eyes lit up again. She tugged at the corner of her mouth, and the expression on her face became more loving, "What else to buy? Or, I will go with you to buy it, and see your children. Everyone is fooling people again."

   "No need, my aunt, I can do it by myself." Han Mingxiu wouldn't let her follow her. If she caught her eye, it wouldn't be as difficult as a locust.

Fearing that she would not be able to get rid of her, Han Mingxiu had to tell a little lie, "Aunty, don’t you want to go back to make dumplings? Or else, go back and make them first, and then go to your house to eat after I’m done. Save time, or I won’t be able to catch the bus back."

   "Well, my aunt will buy meat now, and then go back to pack, you must go..."

Seeing that she had agreed to go to her home, Han Lijuan was so happy that her teeth were exposed, and she quickly told her the detailed address of her home, fearing that she had forgotten it, she borrowed paper and pen from the sales clerk, and detailed the address of her home. He wrote to Han Mingxiu before letting her leave.
