The journey of giving birth to a son

Chapter 38 Jealous

Jiang Shiyi and Shen Yunniang looked at each other, "Yueya, remember what I said today. If you violate the rules of the store, then I will fire you!"

Yue Ya was frightened, "Sister, I will never dare to do that again."

Jiang Shiyi said these words for Yue Ya's own good. Although Yue Ya Niang was a bit patriarchal and would hit or scold her, Yue Ya's thoughts were also wrong. As a girl, Yue Ya also looked down on herself.

From that day on, Yue Ya was afraid that Jiang Shiyi would fire her and lose such a good job, so she worked hard without letting herself have a moment of free time.

Jiang Shiyi was sitting at the table calculating the accounts. When he saw Yueya wiping the clean table again, he called Yueya over to have a heart-to-heart talk, "Yueya, tell me, you do all the work at home, and your mother has delicious food." They don’t give you food and make you work. Do you think these are natural, right?”

Yue Ya lowered her head and dared not speak.

Jiang Shiyi added, "You still feel in your heart that you are not as good as your younger brother, right? Look at my family. I also have a younger brother. My parents have never favored younger brothers. They treat everyone equally if they have delicious food."

Yue Ya also saw that Sister Shi Yi's parents were very kind to her and the family lived in harmony.

"Why do you think it is? Because I have paid for this family. I deserve what I should eat and drink. The same goes for you. Why can't you eat delicious food only for your brother?" "

Yue Ya figured it out. She did all the work at home and made her own contribution to the family. Why couldn't she eat delicious food?

When Yue Ya Niang came again, Yue Ya told her that she could not take out food from the store to eat, otherwise she would be fired. Yue Ya Niang left angrily and never came back.

After coming here for a while, Jiang Shiyi saw that Yue Ya was doing a good job, and gave Yue Ya a raise of two hundred months. Yue Ya was full, her face was full of flesh, and her body was getting better and better. She turned out to be a pretty good-looking person. little girl.

When Jiang Shiyi rented this shop, the place was not very big. Now the business is booming, and there are more and more people eating. There is no place to sit in the store, and even the steps at the door are full of people.

Some people want to take it back to their families to eat, but some people think the people in the store are too noisy and don’t want to eat in the store. What should they do?
In order to meet different needs, Jiang Shiyi added takeout business and box lunches.

The weather outside was getting hotter, so Jiang Shiyi put the lunch boxes outside.

"Lunch boxes, lunch boxes...high quality and cheap, delicious and not expensive!"

Yue Ya and Jiang Hui shouted, each one louder than the other, and Jiang Shiyi couldn't help but smile.

In the afternoon, a woman came into the store. She had high cheekbones, slender eyebrows, dark skin but wore a green t-shirt. She looked very mean.

Jiang Shiyi was about to stand up and say hello.

"Business is good!" the woman said angrily.

Jiang Shiyi sat still. The woman wiped her handkerchief on the chair opposite her, sat down, and announced her door. It was Mrs. Liu, the youngest daughter-in-law of the Cheng family.

"My mother-in-law's shop may be a Feng Shui treasure. Look how good your business is!"

Mrs. Liu said, turning in and out and looking around as she spoke.

Jiang Shiyi remained silent. Naturally, when business was good, some people would be jealous.

Mrs. Liu saw that no one was paying attention to her and left.

Jiang Shiyi thought that he should also visit the landlord's family to find out what was going on.

Jiang Shiyi didn't have anything to bring. I heard that she was an old lady from the clan, so the dishes should be more exquisite.

A crystal elbow. A soy sauce chicken and steamed turbot.

There are also new dishes that I served, chicken feet, spicy braised duck intestines, duck feet, duck gizzards, duck wings... I made a platter, all of which are good dishes to go with wine.

There are rules in this dynasty. The clan is entirely supported by the court. It does not engage in business or conduct civil examinations. It receives a fixed amount of money and food every month.

But more than a hundred years later, because the clan population was increasing and the court could not afford it, the clan salary was also cut a lot, so the place where the Cheng family lived was not very big, just a small courtyard with two entrances. Almost like ordinary people.

Although the yard with two entrances is not small, it doesn't look so nice when the whole family lives together.

Jiang Shiyi knocked on the wooden door. The person who opened the door was a woman in her twenties who looked very kind. She took the food box from Jiang Shiyi's hand and introduced herself, "My family name is Wu, you can call me Mrs. Wu."

It turns out that this is the daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the Cheng family, and she is the sister-in-law of Mrs. Liu.

Jiang Shiyi naturally didn't know how to call her Mrs. Wu, so he called her, "Sister-in-law Cheng."

Mrs. Wu said that her parents-in-law had gone out to listen to a play, and she enthusiastically asked her to come in and sit down. Jiang Shiyi said that there was something else in the store, so she left first.

Mrs. Wu entered the house carrying the food box. They were a large family living together. Her parents-in-law went out to listen to a play, and her sister-in-law returned to her parents' house. Mrs. Wu made dinner as a matter of course.

Because Jiang Shiyi had brought a few dishes, Mrs. Wu prepared a simple meal for dinner, cooking a pot of porridge and making some steamed buns.

The food was placed on the table, and the whole family came back. The parents-in-law, husband, younger brother, sister-in-law, and the sister-in-law’s two children sat at a full table, looking at the food on the table with salivation, even though they were members of the clan. , I haven’t received that much money in recent years, so these dishes are not easy to eat.

Just as Mrs. Wu was about to sit down, her mother-in-law asked her to call her sister-in-law to come for dinner, so Mrs. Wu went to the backyard.

My sister-in-law has been having a temper these days and has not given her a good look. My sister-in-law has not even called out.

Madam Wu tried to persuade her, but if her sister-in-law didn't eat, her mother-in-law would nag her again.

The sister-in-law didn't come, so Mrs. Wu went to the front hall alone.

"This elbow is so delicious!" My father-in-law leaned on the chair, picking his teeth with a red face.

"I think it's delicious too. It's a bit cheaper to rent our house to them. The business is so good that the rent should be increased." The sister-in-law burped.

"We have already negotiated the rent, so the price increase is a bit unjustifiable!" Cheng Dalang said.

"If the rent is not raised, we will lose money."

Mrs. Wu looked at the table. The cups and plates were in a mess. Her brother-in-law's two children each gnawed on a big chicken drumstick. They left nothing for her.

Mrs. Wu looked at her husband, who was minding his own business.

My sister-in-law must have eaten when she returned to her parents' house. She would rather burp after eating than keep any for herself.

Mrs. Wu has no children. Her mother-in-law always said that the couple would have to rely on the two children born to her sister-in-law to support them in their old age, so she always asked her to be nice to those two children. But what about the good results?
Mrs. Wu felt like a slave in this family. She got up early every day to do housework and wash the family's clothes, but her sister-in-law didn't have to do anything.

They don't take her seriously.

Madam Wu was so angry that she went back to her room and lay down without eating. The more she lay down, the more aggrieved she felt.
