Eighty's little daughter-in-law counterattacks life

Chapter 58 58. New home
58. New home
People in the village envied Grandma Zhao, saying that Xiaoling, a child, was not in vain and was much better than raising a son of her own.

There are also those who sneer or are jealous, saying that a peasant woman has left the land, the home where she has lived for most of her life, and sold her only old nest to live in the county town with an adopted child.

Zhao Shufen watched Zhao Xiaoling and the others leave in the crowd with resentment. She didn't understand why Zhao Xiaoling suddenly seemed to be a different person, why she suddenly turned against her friend from childhood to adulthood. All along, she was jealous of Zhao Xiaoling. It's well concealed!

She is not convinced. Since she was a child, Zhao Xiaoling has nothing, food and clothing are not as good as her, no parents, and she is often bullied by Liu Guihua, but now she goes to work in the county.

She also wants to live in the county town, she doesn't want to be trapped here for the rest of her life, she wants to divorce Changsheng.

Grandma Zhao’s fields were all planted by her son Zhao Yuxiang’s family. These lands were reclaimed by their ancestors. People no longer live here, and it is impossible to plant the fields again, so they gave them to her son. Although this son is inhumane, no matter how you say it is My own son, the two grandsons will get married in the future, have children, and the population will increase, but the land will not be enough, and we have to cultivate it, so I simply gave them my share.

Although I carried heavy loads on my back, it was not difficult to go down the mountain.They soon arrived at the commune, moved all their belongings to Wang Yuan's pick-up truck, returned the borrowed donkey, and took the pick-up truck to the county seat.

Grandma Zhao is very satisfied with this spacious house.

Although the house is old, its structure is reasonable and generous, and it looks very comfortable. Outside the house is a flat and clean street, unlike the houses in the village, because it is built on the hillside, you can either go uphill or downhill when you go out.

Four rooms, two attics, Zhao Xiaoling lived in one attic, she asked her grandma to live in the other, and grandma said she didn't like living in the attic, it was troublesome and inconvenient to live in the attic, so she chose a room below the attic live.

My aunt chose the room next to my mother.

The grain is placed in a room on the facade.

After arranging the respective rooms and putting the pots and pans into the kitchen, the originally empty house is now bustling with life at home.

Before Wang Yuan left, he gave Zhao Xiaoling 20 yuan.

Zhao Xiaoling pushed back and said, "Brother Wang, you have already done me a great favor, and I have nothing to repay. How can I ask for your money?"

Wang Yuan insisted: "Don't be polite to me. You have just moved, and you still have to take care of your grandma and your aunt. (While chatting on the road, he found out about the aunt's house.) Now you There are many places where money is needed.”

Zhao Xiaoling thinks it is true, everything is just beginning for them, there are many places that need money, and there is food for food, but if you want to do business, you have to have capital. Grandma still has 30 yuan in her hand, which is for her to sell the house It is impossible not to leave some money for her, otherwise she will panic.

Zhao Xiaoling could only accept the 20 yuan from Wang Yuan. Even if she borrowed it from him, she would return it to him when she made money.

Everything is settled, everyone is hungry, but there is no firewood at home, so they can only go to the public cafeteria to buy a few steamed buns to eat.

After dinner, Zhao Xiaoling and her aunt took grandma to the department store again. Grandma was amazed by the dazzling array of things in the clean and bright window of the department store.

The crystal clear buttons, colorful candies, colorful rubber bands and headbands, and all kinds of beautiful floral cloths dazzled grandma.

That's all, what makes grandma even more novel is that the house is actually lit with electric lights. When you press the switch, a shiny thing will illuminate the whole house.

There is also a faucet. When you turn the faucet, white water will flow out of the pipe. You don't need to pick it up, and you can use water directly at home.

Grandma Zhao knows that life in the city is good, but those good things are vague in her impression. In front of her, she could only sigh with emotion that people in the city really enjoy themselves, and life is really comfortable.But she was terrified. Although this place is very good, but they don't have land to plant here, what if the food they brought is used up?Can Xiaoling's business support them?

But already here, she didn't want to be too anxious and affect her daughter's emotions, so she just took one step at a time.

Zhao Yulan's mentality is similar to that of her mother. Now she plans to give up everything in the past and live with her mother and Xiaoling. She feels more relaxed than ever. Before at the Tang family, she felt that even breathing was dull and depressing. , her heart often feels like a big rock is pressing on her heart, but here, she can breathe freely, and her body and mind are transparent and carefree.

Just for this feeling, she has to survive here.

"Xiao Ling, how do we do business? What do we do?" Auntie wanted to get in touch with this matter as soon as possible.

"Auntie, don't worry, we just moved here, let's get acquainted with this place first, I'm going to work tomorrow, you are more familiar with this place than grandma, you and grandma will go to the nearby mountains to collect some firewood, and we can start a fire later. Cooking and eating is the most important thing.”

"That's right! We have wheat ourselves, so we can grind the wheat into flour so that we can make pancakes and steamed buns. We also have some cornmeal, potatoes and sweet potatoes, which are enough for the three of us for more than half a year. With firewood, we can You can make your own food, so you don’t need to spend money to buy food.”

Because they were very hungry after a busy day, they went to the public cafeteria to buy six steamed buns, which cost six cents and six taels of food stamps, and grandma felt distressed for a long time.

Zhao Xiaoling said: "That's right! There are flour milling machines on the streets of this county town. Auntie, you know, it's on the side of Xinhua Road."

Auntie nodded, "I know that place. Tomorrow, Mom and I will grind wheat into flour."

"There are also those cornmeal, which I made by myself before. They are very rough, and my throat is scratched after eating. It will be better if I grind them with a machine."

Early the next morning, Zhao Xiaoling went to work, and her aunt and grandma went to the mountains to collect firewood.

When Zhao Xiaoling came home in the afternoon, grandma came out of the kitchen with a smile and said, "Xiaoling is back? Wash your hands and eat."

Zhao Xiaoling washed her hands and went into the kitchen. Auntie took the last piece of cake out of the pot. Some vegetables were mixed in the cake, wild vegetables they found when they went to the mountains to collect firewood.

Another soup is wild vegetable soup.
