Happy pastoral event: a wonderful wife

Chapter 70 Just Send a Turban
Shen Yunjin looked at Li Qingqing, and said sarcastically, "Sister-in-law, what you said is too wrong. You are not asking for a gift for your mother. I think you want something for yourself. You say you You're not too young, why are you so selfish, you don't care about your mother, and you still have the cheek to ask me for something, you really don't know how to be ashamed."

Li Qingqing didn't expect that Shen Yunjin had already seen what she was thinking, and even said it so directly, she felt that she couldn't bear it, and her cheeks immediately turned red.

"Sister-in-law three, what are you talking about? I really want to ask for a gift for my mother, not for myself. It's fine if you don't give it. Why are you still talking so badly and unreasonably?" Li Qingqing pouted unhappily. , retorted.

Shen Yunjin's eyes turned colder, "You're right, I won't buy you rouge and gouache. If you really want to honor your mother, you should make a living and earn money to buy it for her, instead of brazenly facing you. I want it. My money didn’t come from the wind, whether I have money or not, I have no obligation to buy things for you.”

"Then...then you really plan to just give mother a hat as a gift?" Although Li Qingqing had nothing to say, she still didn't give up and asked again.

Shen Yunjin gave Li Qingqing a blank look, let alone some rouge and gouache, she doesn't even bother to buy ordinary cheap hats for Xu Shi now.

She turned around and left, and replied as she walked, "Not necessarily, it depends on my mood, it's not bad if I can buy a hat with my mother, if I'm not happy that day, I won't give anything away."

Seeing Shen Yunjin walking away, Li Qingqing stomped her feet full of resentment. She had hoped that the hardest-working third sister-in-law in the family would buy her something, but now it turned out to be a good thing. Ken bought it for her, and even gave her a run on, so her dream had to come to nothing again.

After returning home, Shen Yunjin recorded the wages paid to the carpenters today in the account, and then she carefully calculated how much money she had earned in this short period of time. The money was more than she expected, and she couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Shen Yunjin thought that she has been very busy these days, and she has no time to cook something delicious for Yunwen and Jinger, or in a few days she will take her younger siblings to the town to have a good meal, as a treat for them compensation.

It just so happened that the weather was starting to get cold now, and it would be winter soon, so she had to go to the town to buy more things for the winter.

During dinner, the three of Shen Yunjin's sister and brother sat in a circle on the heating kang, the wind outside the window was blowing, but the room was very warm and could not feel any chill.

The oil lamp on the window sill flickered slightly, illuminating the bright and brand-new room extraordinarily brightly.

"Three days later, you and I will go to the town together. When the snacks are sold out, we will have a delicious meal at the market, and then we will buy some thick materials and come back to make clothes. Now that it is cold, we have to do a good job. Winter clothes." Shen Yunjin put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand and said.

When Jing Er heard this, he smiled immediately, "Okay, I haven't been to town with my sister for a long time, and it's time to go for a stroll, and I just want to eat the beef wonton stew sold at the stall in the teahouse. Let's Then go eat."

Shen Yunjin nodded with a smile, "Okay, I will buy wonton stew for you."

Yunwen also nodded, she really wanted to go to the town for a while.These days, Shen Yunjin and Zhou Linger went to the town to sell things by herself, and let Jinger and Yunwen rest at home. Yunwen and Jinger were bored at home for so many days, so they inevitably wanted to go out.

However, after thinking about it, Yun Wen couldn't help asking, "But sister, isn't it just the Li family's aunt's birthday that day, don't you have to go to the big room for dinner at noon that day, and celebrate the Li family's aunt's birthday?"

Shen Yunjin naturally remembered that it was Xu's birthday that day, but she never thought of celebrating Xu's birthday from the very beginning.

"I'm not going." Shen Yunjin immediately shook his head, "Who does she think she is, and she still makes such a big deal, she's just an old woman who stays on the kang every day and can only point fingers at her family but is useless It's just that, it's my birthday and I still refuse to let it go, I don't want to go and join in the fun."

Jing Er also said, "Sister is right, why do you want to celebrate Aunt Li's birthday? She is so annoying, and it's not fun to go there. Why bother? Why don't we go to town and eat our own food?" , both happy and at ease.”

Yunwen looked at Jing'er and smiled, "It's good for you, your mouth is getting better and better."

When Shen Yunjin saw that Jing'er spoke very neatly now, she couldn't help being a little happy. At least Jing'er's temper was not weak, and she could speak well at critical moments, so she wouldn't suffer in the future.

Now that the siblings had made an agreement, three days later, early in the morning, Shen Yunjin took Yunwen and Jing'er to the town in an ox cart at the head of the village.

Before going to the town, Shen Yunjin went to Dafang's house, and gave the birthday gift she had prepared for Mrs. Xu to Mrs. Zhang, and asked her to give it to Mrs. Xu during lunch.

The birthday gift she prepared was a khaki scarf, but it was worth about three Wen. When the elder sister-in-law Zhang saw her gift, she couldn't help being stunned for a moment, as if she felt that the scarf was a bit too shabby.

"Third daughter-in-law, why did you really bring the headscarf?" Mrs. Zhang asked in confusion.

Shen Yunjin didn't think there was anything wrong, "What's the matter with the turban? It's very practical. I heard from my sister-in-law that you and the second sister-in-law are only planning to give you an insole or something. Why do you think the turban is useless when you come to me?"

Speaking of this, sister-in-law Zhang’s expression was indescribable, “You don’t know something, my sister-in-law came to talk to me before, and she knew that I wanted to send insoles to mother, and then she went to tell mother, and later, sister-in-law She told me that my mother was very upset that I gave such a cheap thing, and wanted me to change it to something more decent, so I could only listen to my sister-in-law and bought ten feet of peach-colored cotton fabric for my mother as a gift. "

Shen Yunjin heard, pink cloth?This doesn't seem like the color Xu is suitable for wearing. In the end, Li Qingqing wore it all. It turned out that Li Qingqing's trick of using Xu's birthday to ask for things for herself was not only used on her, but also on her. Sister-in-law, and it worked.

Mrs. Zhang continued, "I heard that the second daughter-in-law would also like to change the gift, at least it should be a little more expensive, and the third daughter-in-law, why don't you change it too, after all, the headscarf is really chilling. "

The always thick-skinned Mrs. Zhang, now has to be overwhelmed by her mother-in-law Mrs. Xu, all because of the so-called "filial piety".

Shen Yunjin glanced at her and said, "Sister-in-law, I won't change it. I think the scarf is pretty good. If mother doesn't like it, let her throw it away, but I won't give her anything else. I have something to do today. I have to do it, and I won’t have lunch with you at noon, so I’ll be leaving first.”

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left. At this moment, she felt a bit of dislike for the Xu family and even the Li family. The Li family is just an ordinary peasant family. Where did all these crap come from...
