Chapter 117

In the morning, the whole village meeting was held while the gong was beating. Those who went out to work during the day heard from their family members when they came back at night.

If you can work in your own village, you don’t need to walk so far. You can go to the county town or other villages to do it, which saves labor and may pay more.

They thought they heard it wrong, why is there such a good thing in their village?

After inquiring again, I found out that the Tang family, the richest man in the county, wanted to buy land in their village to build a factory, and they also cooperated with Hongji, a man from their village. Of course, the factory was in the timber business.

Those building craftsmen must have their work when they heard that the village can build houses.

Those who are strong, but not skilled, feel that the construction of a factory is such a big project that it must be someone who digs the foundation and does hard work.

More people thought of opening a factory in this village, and of course they wanted to become one of the workers there, even as apprentices, and maybe they would become masters in the future.

Every family has a different idea. The family members who sold the land did not hesitate any longer. They only hoped that tomorrow they would say a condition, and that the family members could choose the benefits of entering the factory.

Ye Shuying was also among the crowd at the meeting in the morning. She was watching with her son in her arms. Standing beside him were her sister-in-law and mother-in-law.

They also discussed among the crowd, and asked Ye Shuying to also speak. After all, she is Hongji's younger sister, and her eldest brother can be a small boss. Of course, the advantage is to take over.

"Shuying, go and talk about it. Your eldest brother is also in the Lizheng courtyard. You have spoken. Your husband, brother-in-law and uncle also have work to do."

The eldest sister-in-law kept nagging in Ye Shuying's ear, and there were too many talking voices in the crowd. Except for her and Ye Shuying's mother-in-law, her words could be heard clearly.

The more Ye Shuying listened, the more irritable she became. She and her family were a bit at odds. Yesterday, she went to her natal family to ask for some gifts, and even had a conflict with her family.

At this time, her heart was very complicated, and she didn't take care of the interests of the family at the first time, because she knew that the family could really cooperate successfully.

If Brother Hongji can become the small owner of the factory, there will be no problem with the jobs of the husband, brother-in-law and uncle.

As long as she lowered her head to beg her natal family, or ask her elder brother, Ye Shuying was a little proud thinking, how could her weak elder brother not think of supporting her younger sister if she could get rich?

Wanting her elder brother to take the initiative to invite her husband, or to make their relatives rich, she has her pride, and she doesn't want to beg this elder brother who has always been weak.

Ye Shuying's complicated mood made him unwilling to make a sound. He just watched the meeting silently, and then went home silently after the meeting was over, amidst the nagging of his sister-in-law and mother-in-law.

Back home, the eldest sister-in-law stayed at her mother's house instead of going back to her in-law's house, saying that she was waiting for her two younger brothers to come back from the construction site to discuss something with them.

My sister-in-law's home is also in this village, and it's only a few steps away on foot, but she has to eat at their home.

At this time, she went to the room with her mother-in-law to mutter. In order to chat with the eldest sister-in-law, the mother-in-law said the secret words of her mother and daughter, and her grandson did not bring them.

Ye Shuying carried her son on her back, cooking and cooking. She was never so diligent in her natal family, and she had to do so after she got married.

Just like her mother, she spoiled her daughter-in-law, and when she became a mother-in-law, she could also display her mother-in-law's prestige.

Ye Shuzhi held back, thinking that one day she would surely survive, and buried these things in her heart bit by bit.

She cooked her lunch. She cooked a pickle and a stir-fried green vegetable. There was no meat at all in the two dishes, and they were boiled dry rice.

He brought two bowls of vegetables to the table, and filled four bowls of dry rice according to the number of people who ate here at noon today. He was completely ready, and sat by the table with his son in his arms, and fed his own son first.

Her son can't eat pickles, and can't eat green vegetables, so he can only add a few drops of oil and sprinkle a few salts on his meal, and eat oil-salt rice.

Her eldest aunt and mother-in-law came out of the room when they heard the sound of being called to eat, and sat down at the table with their hands unwashed. The two ate with bowls.

"Shuying, entertaining my sister-in-law without any meat, you are quite stingy!"

The eldest sister-in-law picked out the two pots of vegetables with chopsticks, and was very dissatisfied with Ye Shuying, so she complained.

"Shuying, I know that your husband and you have saved a little private money, and we can't eat so cheaply. You will be the younger sister of the little boss soon, and our family is about to make a fortune."

Ye Shuying's mother-in-law, Ding, assisted in the prosecution after her daughter spoke.

Ye Shuying was still feeding her son, her mother-in-law and elder sister-in-law couldn't see her expression with her head down. It took him a lot of effort to resist the urge to curse.

If she scolded and quarreled with her elder sister-in-law and mother-in-law today, and her husband and younger uncle came back in the evening, her mother-in-law would definitely cry and complain, and she might get a beating at that time.

The husband didn't beat her often, it was because she once learned how to cry her mother-in-law, and after being repaired by the husband, she will endure everything in the future.

After being beaten by her husband, she did not go back to her mother's house and cried because she didn't want the people in the village to laugh at her, and she didn't want her sisters from her mother's family to laugh at her.

In fact, Ye Shuying also cares about face, otherwise she would not often ask her natal family to help, just to let her husband's family look up to her.

She refrained from swearing, but she couldn't hold back from sarcasm.

"Sister-in-law, you want me to cook meat for today's lunch. You should bring some meat when you come to the door. I saw that you didn't say in advance that you would come to eat, and mother-in-law didn't use the money from the office to buy meat."

When Ye Shuying said this, her elder sister-in-law stared at her, pointed at her with a finger without chopsticks and said, "You..."

Ye Shuying didn't care about her sister-in-law being angry, he continued to glance at her mother-in-law and said:
"As for the fact that I didn't use my own money to buy meat, that's what my mother-in-law said, and the food expenses I paid covered the meat. It's like we don't work at home, so we can't eat too well.

"Only when my husband and my brother-in-law work so hard outside, if we come back to dinner at night, we can eat meat."

The mother-in-law, Ding, who wanted to help control her daughter, also said this to Ye Shuying, glanced at her daughter and shook her head.

The mother and daughter seem to have a consensus, and feel that Ye Shuying is so arrogant to talk back to them today, because she has something to rely on, relying on her mother's family to soar into the sky.

The two mothers and daughters knew clearly that Ye Shuying dared to speak like this today, so it was certain that they would not dare to get angry. After all, Ye Shuying was needed for the men of the two families to work.

The mother-in-law and elder sister-in-law ate in silence and stopped provoking Ye Shuying.

It was the first time for Ye Shuying to feel that rebuttals were so refreshing. Her mother-in-law Ding's character of wanting to cry and play tricks can be cured, as long as her son's interests and the interests of her eldest sister-in-law and her husband are the only ones to be treated.

Ye Shuying took a few mouthfuls of food while her son was eating, and said to her son with a smile on her face:
"Son, you have to eat enough to fill your stomach, eat more and grow up faster, and earn a lot of money for mother in the future."

"Yeah, my son wants to eat well and grow up quickly. In the future, he can earn a lot of money and make a fortune like the uncle."
