Tian Xiaomei has been working absent-mindedly all afternoon, thinking about what Su Ai Dang and the others said. Then I started to pull it out one by one.
As a result, I found myself getting more and more chaotic. It doesn't matter who you ask to work, it's not as reasonable as doing it yourself. If someone else does the work, she seems to be a lazy daughter-in-law who bullies her sister-in-law and cannot tolerate her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.
Although she doesn't like to do housework, she doesn't want to be rejected as soon as she gets married.
After work in the afternoon, she didn't need her mother-in-law Gao Xiulan to order her, so she consciously went to the kitchen to cook.
Old Su's family has a big iron pot anyway, so it's very convenient for cooking.
In the evening, I ate sorghum porridge with four-leaf vegetables. Just throw it in the pot and cook it. There was bacon hanging in the kitchen, but Gao Xiulan wouldn't let it move, and no one could move it. When food shortages are not counted now, of course we should eat sparingly. When there is no food to eat in the future, the fat and water of a bite of meat will last a day.
Tian Xiaomei looked at the meat and swallowed. Suddenly remembered that this meat was also brought back by my sister-in-law... It seems that my sister-in-law should not go to the ground. You can't take good things from the house and go to the ground to earn work points. This is really unfair.
After all, she went to the field by herself, that is, to support herself. My sister-in-law is now being raised by her husband's family.
…
The people of Lao Tian's family also eat at home, and they eat simple food at home, a little bit of flour pressed from corn cobs to make a paste, and some green leafy wild vegetables at random. Although the taste is not very good, at least they can eat at least 80% full at home at night. It's much better than other people's families who can only eat five cents a meal.
After Tian finished eating, she kept moaning and sighing, "I don't know if our Xiaomei is full at Lao Su's house."
Mrs. Tian looked at her mother-in-law, thinking about what she heard in the afternoon, and felt that she should tell her mother-in-law. It doesn't matter if my sister-in-law doesn't cook at home, after all, there are mothers and sister-in-laws like them at home. But it would be outrageous to go to someone else's house and not cook.
How embarrassing to be pointed at by the mother-in-law just after getting married.
"Mom, I'm working with the people in Sujia Village this afternoon. I heard from the people there that we Xiaomei didn't cook at noon and were scolded by her mother-in-law. People heard it from afar."
"What, why didn't you say it earlier?" Mrs. Tian said with a shocked face. Then I started to feel sorry for my daughter.
The others also looked at Mrs. Tian in surprise. This is not good news. Xiaomei and Aidang have only been married for a few days...
Mrs. Tian said, "Really, there are several aunts talking about it. It is said that the little girl from the Su family used to cook for the family, but later she said that her husband's family did not cook much. People are lazy... "
"Fart, my daughter works in the field all day, how can she be lazy. The girl in the old Su family has not worked in the field for more than ten years. She eats and drinks well all day long. She looks like a sister-in-law."
Mrs. Tian was very angry. This girl of mine has only been married for a few days, and she was told like this. I don't know what kind of life I live in the old Su's house.
I was so angry that I couldn't sleep at night. I went to Lao Su's house early the next morning.
The people of Old Su's family were making breakfast and were going to work after eating. Tian Xiaomei cooked the food early in the morning. The two sister-in-laws are also busy washing clothes and cleaning the house.
The three of them were busy doing housework.
From the kitchen, Tian Xiaomei watched the two sister-in-laws working as a matter of course, and suddenly felt that it seemed that a daughter-in-law should do the work.
Otherwise, why are these two sister-in-laws working so hard
However, Lin Shuhong and Ding Guihua's idea is that someone has to do the housework anyway, and if they don't do it, it's their own children who do it. Of course, they can do as much as they can.
When the Su family was preparing to have breakfast, Mrs. Tian came to kill them.
Seeing my daughter carrying a big basin of food into the main room, my heart ached. When you get married, you have to serve the whole family to eat and drink. What is this treating her as a daughter? !
"Gao Xiulan, what do you think of my daughter?" Mrs. Tian shouted from the yard straight away.
Although Gao Xiulan is the top dog in the entire Yellow River production team, she has two sons and the man is still there, so she is not afraid of anyone.
Moreover, she had little contact with Gao Xiulan, so naturally there was no conflict. Naturally, she was not so afraid of Gao Xiulan.
Seeing Mrs. Tian making trouble, the Old Su family all stared at her blankly. What are you doing this early in the morning
Tian Xiaomei looked at her mother in surprise, "Mom, why are you here?"
Gao Xiulan came out of the house, looked at Mrs. Tian and smiled, "What are you doing here, of course I'm here for dinner. I came here early in the morning in time for dinner."
Mrs. Tian: "..."
She patted herself on the heart, not letting herself be pissed off by Gao Xiulan, pointing at Gao Xiulan and scolding, "Gao Xiulan, why are you so dark-hearted, my daughter just came over, so you let my daughter serve the whole family to eat and drink, You don't feel sorry for someone else's daughter, do you?!"
Few people would dare to do this to Gao Xiulan. Gao Xiulan walked out of the house with a dark face, pointed at Mrs. Tian and said, "What's wrong, you don't work when you get married? Whose wife doesn't work. Wait How about my other two daughters-in-laws? Ask them if they would like it?"
Ding Guihua said, "Of course I don't like it! I've heard of those who serve mother-in-law and sister-in-law, but I didn't say that they have to serve sister-in-law."
Lin Shuhong was stupid, so she could only nod along. That's right, that's the truth.
Mrs. Tian's eyes were red with anger, "You wait, I will bring my two daughters-in-law over later!"
Gao Xiulan twisted her mouth and said, "It's just right to bring them. Let them teach your daughter that sister-in-law should take good care of sister-in-law. Don't expect sister-in-law to take care of her by washing and cooking."
Mrs. Tian touched her heart again, Tian Xiaomei also felt distressed seeing her mother like this, "Mom, you go back first, I will go home to see you at noon."
Gao Xiulan squinted her eyes and said, "It's fine to go back. If you don't want to work at your in-law's house, you can rest at your mother's house and let your sister-in-law take care of you for a few days."
Tian Xiaomei: "..."
"Mom, what's the matter, why did you quarrel again early in the morning?" Su Qinghe put on his clothes in a daze and came out.
She stayed up for a while last night to make clothes for her mother-in-law, and went to bed very late. Before she woke up, she heard the noise in her sleep. She was so frightened that she thought there was a fight, and ran out without thinking.
Seeing Su Qinghe like this, Mrs. Tian became even angrier. My daughter got up early in the morning to cook for the whole family, but Gao Xiulan's daughter hasn't woken up yet.
They are all daughters, why should they not be regarded as human beings
She couldn't hold back the anger in her heart, and couldn't wait to find two daughter-in-laws to come over to quarrel, so she took her daughter and strode away. "Let's go home and not serve people here!"
Seeing that his daughter-in-law was about to leave, Su Aidang hurriedly said, "Mom, what are you doing? Why are you taking Xiaomei back?"
Seeing that her son-in-law stopped her, Mrs. Tian felt confident, and immediately said, "If I don't take it back, I will let your mother bully me? Tell yourself, do you live with Xiaomei or with your mother."
Su Aidang was taken aback, do you still need to ask this question? "Mom, I've been living with my mother all these years. I can't give up my mother as soon as I marry a daughter-in-law. That would be poked in the back. My two uncles didn't do that."
"..." Mrs. Tian was so choked by him that she couldn't speak, and she was a little speechless. He stared blankly at his son-in-law for three seconds, then immediately dragged his daughter away.
You have to go, it's not normal to stay any longer!
Seeing how persistent my mother-in-law was, Su Aidang couldn't stop her, and shouted, "Xiaomei, come back sooner."
When Mrs. Tian heard this, she almost staggered and fell down. It sounds like I'm not ready to pick it up yet! Why did she find such a wicked son-in-law!
After Mrs. Tian and Tian Xiaomei left, the rest of Lao Su's family went in to eat. Anyway, just do what you should do.
Even Su Aidang went into the house to eat and was ready to go to work.
Su Qinghe was no longer sleepy at this moment, and asked worriedly, "It's not a problem, do you want my brother to pick it up?" It seems that the daughter-in-law is angry when she goes back to her natal home, and she only wants her husband to pick her up before she is happy to come back. Just for one breath.
Mrs. Gao said, "Why do you want to pick it up? Who hasn't been back to her mother's house? It's so close. There will be more opportunities for her to go back to her mother's house in the future. Who will go back to pick her up? Don't be used to it! Her mother took it away by herself, so she brought it back by herself. It's not us who drove them out."
Others didn't see anything wrong either. It's not that Aidang and Tian Xiaomei got into a conflict and went back angrily. It wasn't my mother-in-law who drove me out. It was her own mother who took it back. If they go to pick them up, the Laotian family will have to ride on their own heads.
Now this matter is not a matter of the couple, but a matter of the two families.
Tian Xiaomei was dragged back to her mother's house by the quilt in a daze, and she still hasn't recovered.
What is she doing here
Fortunately, the sister-in-law's food was ready, so she ate a meal with the family. However, the two sisters-in-law couldn't think much of it.
It's so close, can't you come back after eating at Lao Su's house, you have to grab a bite with your family.
Of course, Tian Xiaomei hasn't noticed this change yet. In her mind, this is still her home. The kind that you can do whatever you want.
After eating, as soon as the bowls and chopsticks are put away, let go of them.
Mrs. Tian didn't let her work either, so she pulled her and said, "You don't want to go back this time. Unless you love the party and separate the family. You two haven't had children yet, and the rations must be enough for you to eat, and there may be some leftovers." .When you have children later, I can help you if I am close. Your sisters-in-law can also help you."
Two sister-in-laws: "..."
Tian Xiaomei said, "Mom, it's really nothing. It's just cooking. The two sister-in-laws who love the party do this. They work together every day."
When Mrs. Tian heard this, she stared at her daughter, "What did you say when you got married, you won't be oppressed by your mother-in-law at home. Why is it changed now?"
Tian Xiaomei thought about her thoughts before she got married, and then found out in horror that her thoughts seemed to have changed suddenly without realizing it, the key is that she hadn't noticed it yet!
"Mom, am I wrong in thinking now?" She asked nervously.
Mrs. Tian said firmly, "Of course not! Why do you have to work? There are so many Lao Su's family, why do you have to serve the whole family to eat? You work in the field to earn work points. You don't just eat for free. What about their mother-in-law and sister-in-law? If you don’t work, don’t do it, someone will do it anyway.”
Tian Xiaomei turned her head around after hearing her mother's words. That's right, she didn't eat free rice, she earned work points.
After hearing this, Mrs. Tian and Mrs. Tian were thoughtful.
Tian Xiaomei didn't return to Lao Su's house until the evening.
Su Ai Dang was not used to it at first, after all, it has been very hot these days. But soon he didn't have time to think about those hot things. He was arranged by his wife to touch the eggs in the middle of the night.
So no one went to Lao Tian's house to pick him up.
Tian Xiaomei didn't come back until the Lantern Festival the next day. Su Aidang was tired all night and couldn't care about anything else, so he went directly to work in the fields to earn money.
Su Qinghe was quite worried that his brother would have problems right after he got married. I want her brother to coax his wife with the eggs he picked out at night.
But soon she couldn't care less. Guo Changsheng brought her a letter when he came back from the commune, saying that her husband's family asked her to go to the county town to celebrate the Lantern Festival.
After Gao Xiulan heard the news, she immediately packed a bunch of things for her daughter and asked her to take her husband's house to celebrate the festival.
Su Qinghe rode to the county with ten eggs on his back and a spring jacket made for Gu Mama.
