Chapter 253 You put it on the mat first

"Sewing machine?" Li Hongjun asked with a frown.

"Well, brother, I just want a sewing machine. When my eldest sister got married, my father packed a few boxes for her as a dowry, but my mother said that all the money in the family was given to Hongqi to go to school, but I have nothing here. It's gone." Li Xianghe said as tears rolled down his face.

"What are you crying for? Just say no to your second brother if you want anything, and you can lose it." Qiu Shuping was not happy when she heard her daughter pick her up. "Besides, it's a business for your younger brother to go to college. When your younger brother will be promising in the future, let's get on with it all at once, it's no better than anything else." She also said this to Li Hongjun, even if her youngest son was confused and made a mistake However, from now on, he will be a college student, a big man who can't be caught up with even a stinky soldier.

Li Hongjun didn't say a word, his family knew about his affairs.Their family could indeed afford a sewing machine, but it was Yunfang's own money.In addition to helping his comrades in arms every month, and supporting his wife and children, his salary can't save much for a month.

He looked at his home again. Although it was not considered a bare house, Yunfang was not willing to buy a big item. How could he ask his wife to pay for a sewing machine for his sister.

Li Xianghe knew it was going to be bad when he saw his second brother's expression, so he said quickly: "Second brother, my father said, I didn't ask you to pay me, but the family has no money now, so I asked you to pay for it first. Don't you pay for it every year? Give our father and mother 100 yuan for retirement, our father said, and deduct it from there, when the deduction is over, you are giving money to parents."

Li Hongjun still didn't speak. He's not a three-year-old child. He's talking nicely now, but when his mother's mouth is crooked, she doesn't know what else to say. He's not exaggerating at all. His mother can really do it .

Qiu Shuping is not happy about her daughter saying this. It's not about taking money out of her pocket, but if it works, let's do it first. Later, she will just find a chance to ask her second son for money. She still doesn't believe it. Well, because of this, the second child can ignore the life and death of his parents.

"What's the matter, your father said that, you still don't want to pay, do you?" Qiu Shuping was upset at first, but she was even more unhappy when she saw that her son hadn't made a statement and was still frowning. "Tell me, why are you so hard-hearted? I brought you up with shit and pee from a young age. Even if there is no credit, there is hard work. Now I beg you, why are you still not happy? You A wolf-hearted thing." Qiu Shuping forgot the original intention of coming to her son's house again, she has this temperament, she has to do everything according to her, or she will start to make trouble when she is not happy.In fact, she only had this method, and it was the best method for the Li family.Fortunately, she still thought that she couldn't get into an argument with her second son, so she controlled even if she was playing a rogue, and she cried and made noises without lying on the kang.

"Mother, it's not that the Red Army doesn't pay, it's that we really don't have that much money." In the end, it was Shen Yunfang who spoke.

Lying on the kang, she really couldn't listen to it anymore, how could she hurt her son's mother so much in front of her daughter-in-law.Besides, she understood Li Hongjun's temperament. In this case, he would either get angry directly, or continue to make a bad face, which would not solve the actual problem at all.So she had to come out to deal with her mother-in-law.

"No money, no money, who are you lying to?" Qiu Shuping turned her anger directly on her daughter-in-law and went, just in time to find no one who could get angry at will. "I don't know how much my son earns a month? You still lie to me that I have no money, and you treat me as a three-year-old child. Besides, you still eat and drink at home without money, and you still eat pig's feet and elbows. How long do you have?" Is that easy to talk about?"

This is blatant jealousy.After seeing the food at the second son's house, she was deeply jealous and regretted that all these good things were ruined by Shen Yunfang. If there was no separation and the son did not marry this woman, these things plus the son's salary would be worthless. my own.

"Mother..." Li Hongjun stood up abruptly, looking like he was about to lose his temper.

In front of him, the old lady just scolded her daughter-in-law like this, if the daughter-in-law was wrong, it was fine, but now it was obviously the old lady who was looking for faults, how could he let the daughter-in-law suffer this grievance.

Shen Yunfang didn't see things well, so she quickly pulled Li Hongjun back, but don't fight with two people in her own house, no matter who is right and who is wrong, it won't sound good to spread the word, if it doesn't work out, Li Hongjun will have to be charged with unfilial piety You must know that Li Hongjun will still be in the army in the future. If such rumors are really spread, regardless of whether they are true or not, it will not be good for Li Hongjun's future.

"What, what, what are you calling?" Qiu Shuping also widened her eyes.

"Okay, you have such a temper, don't stay in the house, go out quickly and get some bean buns for mother, I put it in the tank in the backyard, you go and look for it." Shen Yunfang drove people away.

Li Hongjun was still a little worried, but thinking of his daughter-in-law's narrow-mindedness and smartness, she would definitely not be at a disadvantage, so she took advantage of the opportunity to go out and decorate things for the old lady.

"Mom, don't be upset. I don't like to listen to what you said just now. Why do you want me to eat and drink too much? Don't say that I am in confinement now. I have to mend my body to feed my child, so just say In the current situation, it’s Chinese New Year. I shouldn’t have taken out all the good things at home. I still don’t believe it. You and my father ate big balls with pickled vegetables for Chinese New Year. Besides, the Red Army only came back for a year. Once, I usually eat bran-swallowed vegetables at home, and I have to cook him something delicious when he comes back. Mom, don’t you think so?” Shen Yunfang reasoned with her mother-in-law calmly, let’s not get angry, and convince others with virtue.

"Also, mother, it's not that the Red Army doesn't want to agree, it's that we really don't have that much money. A small sewing machine costs one hundred and thirty-four. Where can we get so much money? Look at the Red Army. The monthly salary is quite a lot, you didn’t see how much he spent.”

Then Shen Yunfang counted down Li Hongjun's salary with her mother-in-law with a fussy look.He has to support several comrades-in-arms every month, which is a large part of the money, accounting for almost one-third of his salary.He himself has to communicate in the army, so he has to keep a third for himself.The remaining one-third is the money he mailed home.

As for the ten or eight yuan, Shen Yunfang did not dare to spend it recklessly, and saved it all.A few months ago, when Li Hongqi was going to college, she gave her 50 yuan, and then she went to the hospital where she lived in the city for several days to have a baby, which cost a lot more.When Li Hongjun came back during the Chinese New Year, Shen Yunfang didn't want to lose him, so she bought some meat or something, thinking about supplementing Li Hongjun.

All in all, they have just been married for a year, so how could they still have savings in their hands, and it would be good not to borrow money to survive.

Qiu Shuping listened carefully, and after listening to what the daughter-in-law said, she thought about it in her heart. The daughter-in-law was right, so the son should not be able to pay for the sewing machine.

However, she didn't really expect her son to save any money from his salary. When his son was not married, he could post ten yuan to her every month, and let him spend the rest, so What she actually counted on was the money in the hands of her daughter-in-law.
