women are not easy

Chapter 7

When Wu Jianjun said this, he clearly pinched Man Qing's weakness.As the second daughter in the family, there is an older brother, a third younger brother and a fourth younger sister. She is the least valued person in the family.

As long as there are delicious and interesting things, it is naturally not Man Qing's fault. Her childhood and adolescence were almost immersed in a corner where no one was watching.

Wu Jianjun is not talking nonsense. For Manqing, when she was young, the eldest brother in the family did indeed give her some rare warmth.

More than ten years ago, it was still a luxury to eat a meal of fish and meat in this house, and we had to wait until the Chinese New Year to eat it.

Besides, the candy that children like is even more unnecessary.Sugar tickets are used to buy sugar. If you want to get a taste of sweetness, you can only ask Zhou Gong in your dreams.

Man Qing still vaguely remembered that there were relatives in the family who came to pay New Year's greetings that year.She lay eagerly on the corner of the table, watching her relative drink the cup of sweet tea made with white sugar that she had longed for.The feeling of being able to only look at it but not touch it is really uncomfortable.

The eldest brother couldn't see it, and took advantage of the gap between his mother greeting the guests, and sneaked into the kitchen with Manqing, and scooped up a spoonful of sugar for her with his hand, satisfying his appetite.

The sweetness of the sugar in the mouth, Man Qing still feels mixed flavors when he thinks about it now.

The joyful satisfaction mixed with the sadness of self-pity is really beyond words.

"Second sister?" Wu Jianjun called out, pulling Man Qing back from the lengthy memory to reality.

Man Qing lowered his head, calmly suppressed the tears in his eyes, paused, and then said: "Brother, I..."

As soon as the words came out, they were interrupted by the loud voice downstairs. It turned out that Rufen and Yuan Xiaohui came back from outside.

Man Qing hurriedly turned around, wiped the corners of her eyes, then got up and said hello: "Mom, sister-in-law, are you back?"

Rufen stopped her pace, her eyes slipped past Man Qing, she looked at Sheng Nan who was sleeping soundly on the bed, and said, "Tut tsk, Man Qing, I thought that you were in the hospital that day. You deliberately said angry words to Wei Guo. Dare you, do you really plan to come back for confinement?"

While talking, Rufen picked a seat on the moldy long bench beside her, patted the ashes on her trouser legs, and said casually: "This big family, everyone wants to eat when they open their mouths. This Weiguo , It's true, I don't think about my wife at all, and I'm very ignorant..."

On the face of it, Rufen was talking about her son-in-law Hu Weiguo, but she was actually saying that Man Qing would be a burden when she returned home.

Man Qing has long been aware of his mother's criticism of Sang and Huai.She didn't want to pay attention to these words, but she took out a yellow envelope from her cloth bag and handed it over, "Mom, here is 100 yuan, you take it first, and use it as a subsidy for the family."

As soon as Rufen opened her narrowed eyes, she immediately showed a happy expression, "Here, that's what I usually say, this is our second child, who knows how to advance and retreat, and is sensible."

Man Qing smiled lightly, and asked again: "I heard from the eldest brother that you went out to borrow money early in the morning. How is it? Did you get it?"

Rufen glanced at Yuan Xiaohui, but didn't say anything.

Yuan Xiaohui put her hands behind her back, picked her fingers secretly, hesitated for a while, and said softly: "The uncle and the second uncle have both gone to the house, and everyone said that money is tight and there is no money to borrow."

Wu Jianjun snorted disdainfully: "This uncle's house has three floors; the second uncle is the first batch of ten thousand yuan households in our county. Those who have been to the North City and received awards, they can't afford it. Aren’t they all deceitful nonsense! Why don’t you look down on our poor relatives!”
