Rebirth and struggle for rural daughter-in-law

Chapter 57 The little sister is here
Chapter 56: Here Comes My Sister
When Zhang Guilan got out of bed, Luo Ji couldn't lie down anymore. He was not used to going to bed before dark. Looking at his wife who had gone to Westinghouse, he rubbed his head, got up and went to the kitchen. There was stewed cabbage left at noon. There was still some rice, so he turned on the stove, Luo Ji heated up the food, and asked Zhang Guilan to eat.

Zhang Guilan sent him away by saying that she was not hungry, and the door was locked inside, and Luo Ji couldn't get in. He thought Zhang Guilan was still angry and didn't call her again. She made up her mind about cutting the underwear. She could earn some money before she went home. She would collect the money for the mung bean cake tomorrow, and she would no longer be in the mung bean cake business.

The cotton cloth that I bought was almost cut, and only the last piece in my hand was left. Zhang Guilan finished it with a few scissors, and finally packed up the things before taking out the shoe upper.

The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and I can’t wear cotton shoes anymore. Zhang Guilan made a pair of single shoes for herself. The soles are ready-made. I only need to make the upper. After tracing the shape and cutting it out, only the paste is left The upper was glued, and it was getting dark outside, so Zhang Guilan packed her things and came out.

The [-]-watt light bulb was on in the living room, the door of the east room was closed, and there was no light inside. Zhang Guilan guessed that Luo Ji was asleep, so she went to the kitchen to grab the noodles, turned on the stove, and made paste. After finishing, she sat in the living room Stick the upper inside.

The shoes in her previous life were made by her family before she got married, and she bought them after she got married. Fortunately, Zhang Guilan still remembers the steps. Although it is a single shoe, the upper should not be too thin, otherwise it will be worn out, and you can wear a pair of shoes Not for a few days.

The outside of the shoe upper is made of black velvet, and the inside is left over fabric from making underwear. I glued four layers of it. I put the shoe upper on the table, thinking that if it doesn’t work tomorrow, I’ll buy a sewing machine in the city. After all, this The edge circle of the upper should also be wrapped with white cloth strips, and the insole that is held together with the sole should also be wrapped with white cloth strips. These must be made with a sewing machine, as well as the small underwear at home. , and you can never borrow someone else's.

I have a decision in my heart.Zhang Guilan had just returned to the east room, and she had changed all the quilts, which were covered by Luo Ji before, and she didn't take off her clothes, she just pulled the quilt and lay down.

The next day, she was woken up by the wake-up blower in the forest area, and she couldn't sleep anymore. Tomorrow, she had a party at home and added a sewing machine, so Zhang Guilan woke up.No need to wear a coat now.She was wearing a big sweater underneath.I put on a modified blue khaki coat and a pair of black trousers on the outside. I put on cotton shoes and went to catch the bus without breakfast.

At the head of the small bridge, he meets Jiang Zhi.Jiang Zhi also looked embarrassed when he saw Zhang Guilan, "Sister-in-law is going to the city? Xiao Quan'er has a fever, I'll take him to the city to have a look."

As if afraid that Zhang Guilan might misunderstand, she hurriedly explained.

But he didn't know that his lie was exposed as soon as he opened his mouth.

There is an infirmary in the accompanying factory, and the doctors there are more experienced than the hospitals in the city. Besides, the family members don’t need to spend money to see a doctor. Li Quan in Jiang Zhi's arms.It's not like being sick at all.

Zhang Guilan didn't pick her up, just smiled faintly, "The child is young, it's right to go to the city to check."

Jiang Zhi smiled shyly.

The way she looked before made Zhang Guilan want to take care of her more.But after that incident, she only felt that Jiang Zhi's appearance was too fake, and she felt very annoyed after seeing it.

The bus came, and there were empty seats everywhere. Tomorrow is Saturday, and there are no people going to work in the city, and there is no one in the bus. Except for those who have serious business to go to the city, there is no one.

Zhang Guilan saw Jiang Zhi walking inside with the child in his arms, so she simply chose the seat in front of her and sat down. The roads are still dirt roads, and the front seat can be less bumpy, so she doesn't need to look at Jiang Zhi's appearance.

Jiang Zhi sat down and lowered his head to talk to the son in his arms. He didn't raise his head until the car was moving and glanced ahead. After lowering his head, he bit his lower lip slightly. All the people in the compound are better off than her family. She couldn't get into those circles, and she didn't dare to offend others, so she didn't dare to express her opinion that day, and ran away as if running away.

After returning home, Jiang Zhi kept avoiding Zhang Guilan, just wanted to go to the city to buy some rice today, but he didn't dare to ask Zhang Guilan if he wanted to go to the city, but he didn't want to run into him, and made her embarrassed for a while.

There is also a monthly distribution of rice in the forest area, but the amount is not much, there are [-] catties, which is not enough to eat, it is just a subsidy for one person, and it seems that there is only a week before next month, and the Li family has no more rice , it cost two yuan to take the bus back and forth, Jiang Zhi was reluctant at first, but after entering the city last time, she couldn't forget it in her heart, and this time she went to the city again after being ruthless.

Now the rice costs forty cents a catty, including the five yuan he earned last time, and the five yuan left at home, Jiang Zhi brought ten yuan into the city, and he was confident in his mind. Forgot to think about Zhang Guilan sitting in front of her.

After getting out of the car, Jiang Zhi turned around and caught up with Zhang Guilan who was in front of him, "Sister-in-law, where are you going?"

Originally, Jiang Zhi wanted to talk about going together, but then he remembered that he said earlier that he was here to take the child to see a doctor, so he didn't say the following words.

"I still have some bills that I haven't collected, so I won't accompany you to the hospital when I go to the market." Zhang Guilan didn't criticize.

Jiang Zhi smiled, "Sister-in-law, I'm leaving."

While hugging the child, Jiang Zhi tugged at the floral cloth clothes on his body. Although he came with Zhang Guilan once last time, he always followed Zhang Guilan. If you don't get there, you can only take a few steps to inquire about it. It's completely a countryman's embarrassment when he goes to the city.

Zhang Guilan went to the market first and collected the last bill. At the beginning, there were more than 240 catties of mung beans, and the worn flour was removed to make 220 catties of mung bean cakes. After deducting the fare and the money for hiring people to work, I only saved 70. , here is the book that was invested earlier, plus the 200 saved in the wallet, and the remaining [-] yuan in the pocket, Zhang Guilan saved another [-], leaving less than [-] yuan in his hand, and then went Supply and Marketing Building.

Now most of the people who look at sewing machines are people who are about to get married. Among the major wedding items, the sewing machine is the first item, followed by bicycles. Zhang Guilan doesn't dress well, and no salesperson cares about her. She only cares about introducing others.

Zhang Guilan didn't care, and finally fell in love with a Butterfly sewing machine, which cost 120 yuan. In the end, she negotiated the price without paying a cent, but she could find someone to take her to the bus, and Zhang Guilan paid for it. Money, but those who looked at the sewing machine didn’t buy it, but Zhang Guilan bought it because she didn’t wear it very well. The salesperson didn’t look down on Zhang Guilan as much as before, and gave Zhang Guilan a box of sewing machine thread. Zhang Guilan was happy Here, it saves a lot of money.

After the porter put the sewing machine box on the bus and let the bus driver watch over it, Zhang Guilan went back to the market and bought four catties of white flour, which now costs seventy cents a catty, and five catties of meat, which cost Four yuan and fifty cents, eggs are now nine cents apiece, Zhang Guilan buys 22 eggs, buys [-] eggs and gets one free, which is [-]. The old lady who sells eggs also gave Zhang Guilan the small bamboo basket in which the eggs were placed.

In the end, I bought two more silver carp and five Chinese cabbages, and Zhang Guilan returned to the bus with her things. After a while, we will have dinner together at home.

Seeing that it was almost time, Zhang Guilan glanced into the car, but didn't see Jiang Zhi, so she looked away calmly, and after a while, she watched Jiang Zhi get into the car sweating with the child in his arms.

I can sweat a lot in the winter, so I can see that I hurried back. After getting into the car, I was still panting. I saw Zhang Guilan smiling and saying hello, "Sister-in-law."

Zhang Guilan nodded, "Xiao Quaner is asleep?"

Jiang Zhi sat down on the other seat next to Zhang Guilan, "That's right, this kid wakes up early in the morning, so he can't help but fall asleep at this time. Sister-in-law's work is done?"

"Yeah, I don't have anything to buy." People began to pick up people on the road one after another, because tomorrow is the weekend, and some people who work in the city will go home today, and some have been waiting for the bus and just haven't come in.

When the car finally drove away, it was half full.

Zhang Guilan and Jiang Zhi didn't speak on the way. When the bus stopped at the entrance of the compound, Zhang Guilan first moved the vegetables she bought outside the car, and then moved the sewing machine out of the frost preparation. It took a lot of effort. strength.

"Sister-in-law, what's inside such a big cardboard box?" Jiang Zhi looked up carefully, but she didn't recognize it, but she recognized the small painting of a sewing machine on the cardboard box, and couldn't help but whisper, "Sister-in-law, You bought a sewing machine, it costs several hundred, right? There are not many in our town who can afford it, let alone the people in the village."

Jiang Zhi sighed, and was also a little jealous. This is a big item. People bought it when they said they would buy it, but looking at his own house, it is even a problem to have enough food. They are the same people, but why is there such a big difference.

Zhang Guilan smiled and didn't explain, she just called the young man at the door to come over to help, and then moved the things back to the house, and after sending them away with the young man, Zhang Guilan took all the vegetables she bought to the balcony, there is no need at this time I'm afraid of freezing, and the temperature is just right so I don't have to worry about it breaking. I changed my clothes and washed my face before I could get the sewing machine.

As soon as she opened the cardboard box outside, she heard someone knocking on the door. Zhang Guilan stroked her hair, got up to open the door, and was slightly taken aback when she saw the person standing outside.

"Sister-in-law, this girl said she is the younger sister of Leader Luo." The young man stepped forward to inquire.

Before Zhang Guilan could speak, Luo Haiying handed the bag directly to Zhang Guilan, turned around and thanked the young man who sent her here, "Thank you, comrade, this is my brother's house."

Seeing that Zhang Guilan didn't speak, the young man took the things again, nodded, turned and went downstairs.

It wasn't until this time that Zhang Guilan came back to her senses and stepped aside to make way for her, "Haiying is here, come in quickly."

But her heart sank. She and this sister-in-law never got along. During the few months she stayed at Luo's house, this sister-in-law didn't talk to her. I don't know what to mutter, but I have nothing good to say anyway.

　As for the pink ticket, they told 58 that it was wrong, so let’s accumulate it, and when it reaches 116 votes, another update, and then [-],,, and so on. Thank you: Xiaoyuanzi coke, break up on the road of love, Qin Ai Shallow, whispering softly, the peace talisman of Zixue leaving a step, and the ticket of Dongfang Fengyun.
