Chapter 508 Hurt Feelings
The old family is no longer what it used to be. The situation of being able to be the master of the brigade has long been completely destroyed with the rehabilitation of the Yi family. Why is her mother still so self-righteous? However, she couldn't expose this to her face, otherwise her mother would definitely get angry and might even kick her out.
Zhuang Cai'er lowered her eyes and whispered in a flattering voice, "Not completely, it's just that my...my husband, his leg injury hasn't healed yet, and he ate up all the fine grains at home. I thought that our team had just harvested the wheat not long ago, and I was wondering if my family could give me some..."
Cui Xiaofen was not stupid. She looked at her daughter who looked confused, sighed, and wanted to say something else, but then she thought it was meaningless, so she simply waved her hand and spread her palm in front of Zhuang Caier, "You can exchange it. What do you want to exchange?"
Zhuang Caier looked up at her mother in surprise, only to see her looking at her with a frank gaze, not thinking that there was anything wrong with asking her daughter for money, "Mom..."
"It's no use calling you dad. You can't even touch that loser's ashes. You are here to exchange fine grains for your husband, but I have made up my mind from the beginning. I am going to sell the fine grains and save some money for your second brother to marry a wife. So if you want to exchange fine grains for your husband, that's fine. Just tell me the price." Cui Xiaofen didn't think there was anything wrong with her behavior. When her daughter got married, everything was glorious. Not only did the family prepare a bicycle for her, but they also changed it to beautiful floral cloth. At that time, everyone in the team would say that she and the old man were particular, and they knew that the family really loved their daughter.
They are devoted to their daughter, so naturally they will not favor one over the other when it comes to their son. Although there are some problems in their daughter's family now, it is still better than Zhuang Dahe. His wife first went crazy and was later taken away by the police. Their family almost had to live in the police station. They finally got the police to agree to divorce the two. They can't let Zhuang Dahe be single like this, right?
Zhuang Caier opened her mouth, but finally couldn't hold back and said angrily, "Mom, you are my real mother. Why are you asking me for money when I'm asking you for some fine food?"
"When your beastly father was the team leader, we had money and food?" Cui Xiaofen spat and shook her hands impatiently. "If you have money, give it to me in exchange. If not, go back and ask your parents-in-law for it. This is the situation at home now. If you don't have money, don't ask for it. You don't want to hurt feelings."
"Mom, you also know how to hurt feelings! He is your son-in-law, your daughter's support for the rest of her life, how can you open your mouth to ask me for money?" Zhuang Caier never thought that her mother would be so heartless. She really missed the time when her father was still alive. At that time, Jiajun was not injured. She was still the little girl of the captain's family. Her husband loved her, her parents-in-law were friendly, and her life was smooth and worry-free...
"You also said that he is my son-in-law, not my son! My family is barely able to make ends meet, and I have finally saved up some fine food to exchange for money to find a wife for my son. Do you think your mother is wrong to do this?" Cui Xiaofen was speechless, pointing at her daughter, "People say that girls are extroverts, and they are absolutely right. Why don't you lend a hand to the family? When your two brothers are having a hard time making ends meet, don't you know how to understand us?"
Zhuang Caier opened her mouth again and again, but finally stopped talking in the face of her mother's disappointed eyes. Her back, which she had managed to straighten, hunched a little bit. "Mom, is there really... no chance for our family to turn things around?"
"Turning over? That requires fate! There has never been a capable person in the old banker's family from top to bottom. They made their fortune by robbing other people's money, but in the end they were left with nothing. Their descendants are all influenced by the useless elders above them. You still want to turn over? Don't tell this to anyone else, I'm afraid people will laugh their teeth off!" Cui Xiaofen is now a shrew. Every day she either complains about this or spits on that. There is nothing in the entire banker's family that she cannot scold. It would have been fine if Zhuang Caier didn't show up. Once she showed up, she just found an audience and became more excited.
In the end, Zhuang Caier left the construction team empty-handed, hearing a lot of dirty talk.
On the way, I met Xue Li who had just returned from the city.
Xue Li passed by her on his bicycle, his flying hair carrying a light and pleasant fragrance, his white cotton shirt tucked into brown trousers, revealing his neck and wrists, dazzlingly white.
She was so radiant before. Zhuang Caier looked away, the gap made her so upset that she wanted to scream.
Jiang Yu and Yi Chi were about to leave, but Tuanzi had not appeared during this period of time.
Yi Chi was a little absent-minded when he was sorting things.
Jiang Yu sneaked into the mountains to look for it late at night, but even she found nothing, which was very strange.
Because she couldn't find it, she had some bad guesses in her mind.
They also don't know how long Tuanzi's lifespan is, but according to Yi Chi, Tuanzi has been with him for more than ten years, so maybe it's because it's old...
Since the police were investigating the case, Tuanzi rarely appeared. After Jiangyu came back, he only played with it for a few days in the winter, and it didn't even crave the comfort of the warm kang.
Jiang Yu wanted to ask Yi Chi if Tuanzi had already been buried in the mountains. But this topic was too cruel for him. He had just accepted the sad news of his family's death, and now he had to accept the fact that Tuanzi was gone? Could he bear it?
So she never mentioned it.
But Yi Chi must have known this, so he didn't mention it or ask, just pretending that he knew nothing. He just occasionally looked in the direction of Yaoer Mountain and was in a daze for a while.
On the other hand, Xue Li was so busy these days that she was exhausted. She finally sat in the corridor and chatted with Fu Biao for a while, but she was complaining. She went to the city today, and on the way back she forgot to buy a train ticket. She was sighing now, "The time arrangement for this year's college entrance examination is really too tight. Everything is rushed together. I have to go early to buy a ticket tomorrow."
"Go tell Jiang Yu about this." Fu Biao looked at her with a half-smile. "We're all going to S City anyway, so you can just sit in the back of the truck and take a ventilate. It shouldn't be too hard to endure."
Xue Li paused for a second while fanning himself. "Is that okay?"
"Let's go find Jiang Yu now. If you're okay with sitting in the back, you can come back quickly to pack your things and load the car." Fu Biao waved his hand, asking her to hurry to Yi Chi's house.
Jiang Yu, who was preparing to go out tomorrow, was putting things into the car, and Yi Chi was tidying up in the car. The two of them worked in perfect harmony.
