80s: The Farmer’s Wife Is The Boss

Chapter 14, Story

 After bidding farewell to Aunt Mei Lian, the mother-in-law and grandson walked to their home, which was not far away, only about ten meters away.

"You kid, why did you buy so many things?" Seeing how heavy the burden was, Grandma He didn't know that Xiaoxue, the kid, had bought something.

Mei Xue looked at Grandma He with a silly smile on her face. She didn’t pay much attention to it before, but after listening to Auntie Perfect Lian’s words today, Mei Xue took a serious look at Grandma He’s face.

　　It is indeed very bad, the food is very poor, but it seems that I haven't had a good rest.

"These are all needed at home. I bought them when I saw the bargain. Don't worry, grandma. I have money in my hands and our family will not be hungry." Now that she is here and her grandma is so kind to her, of course she must repay grandma well. .

“You, if you have some money, just worry about it. If there is something missing at home, you can buy whatever you want.” In fact, it means that you are worried about money.

 It is difficult to make money after all.

 Everyone is reluctant to part with flowers and save them just in case.

 After returning home, Mei Xue put the burden under the eaves and took out the things one by one.

First I bought high rain boots for my grandma, "Grandma, try them on and see if they fit."

When Grandma He saw these things that Mei Xue bought for herself, she was very happy, but she also had a serious look on her face, "You kid, why did you buy these? Don't you have rain boots at home? It doesn't rain much today, so wear them Not even a few times.”

Seeing her grandma like this, Mei Xue was not angry. She immediately coaxed her to sit down and helped her change her shoes and try them on for size.

Grandma He was happy, with a smile on her face, "Xiaoxue can wear whatever she buys."

 There are not only shoes, but also cotton, and some other miscellaneous things.

Grandma He saw that Xiaoxue was busy cleaning things as soon as she came back. She also tried on her own shoes. She took her hand and said, "Don't do it. You are hungry. Let's eat first. We will clean up later. We have bought everything. Grandma I won’t ask you to retreat.”

It's all the child's wish. No matter how much she loves money, she can't break her child's heart because of money.

He didn't say it was okay, but when he said it, Mei Xue's stomach growled again, "Hungry."

“You’re the weird one, okay, put it down and let’s eat first.” Grandma He said with amusement.

"Grandma, haven't you eaten either? It's already one o'clock. Why haven't you eaten yet? This won't work. It will make you hungry. Don't wait for me in the future. Eat first when you are hungry and leave some for me."

Seeing Xiaoxue caring so much about herself, Grandma He turned her back, wiped her face, and adjusted her facial expression.

 “You are beautiful, grandma has been busy until now, who is waiting for you.” The old lady with a hard mouth and a soft heart.

Meixue did not try to expose her and could only follow her words.

The two of them had a sumptuous lunch, which made Mei Xue very happy.

“Grandma, why do you add beans to the rice? Is there not enough rice at home?” Mei Xue is a careful person.

 I haven’t eaten like this a few days ago. I’m afraid I don’t have enough rice at home. There are still two months until the autumn harvest.

“Enough, it didn’t just rain this morning. Grandma will add some red beans to your cooking to remove the moisture.” Grandma He replied with a smile.

 Just the two of them eat, and there is enough rice at home.

"That's good. I thought we didn't have enough rice at home. If it's not enough, let's buy some. No one can lose to you, grandma."

Meixue said softly.

 He put away the dishes and chopsticks on the table and took them to be washed.

It happened to be raining, and the water flow behind was strong. Mei Xue moved quickly and put away the dishes and chopsticks in a short time.

 Started to talk to grandma about making quilts.

 She is really not good at needlework, so she has to rely on her grandma.

Grandma He thought that the quilt that Xiaoxue used for her wedding was the same one that Jun Qi had used before, so it was time to make her a new quilt, so she didn’t waste any time saying, “It happened to be raining, so you don’t have to go to the fields, so I’ll make it for you. "

Mei Xue also pulled the cloth back, which can be used to make clothes or quilt covers. She doesn't like the current kind of cover.

 The fabrics on both sides are different, one side is smooth and the other side is cotton. She prefers the one with cotton on both sides, which is more comfortable.

 “What about these cloths? Does grandma know how to make clothes?” Mei Xue had a headache and was impulsive.

"It's okay. I'll take it to your Aunt Mei Lian later and ask her to do it for us. Then I'll just give her a little money." Grandma He said with great enthusiasm.

Of course, she is even more sensible and knows what things should not be troubled by others and what things can only be done by herself.

 “Well, I didn’t expect Aunt Mei Lian to have such a skill.”

 The weather was pretty good in the afternoon, but there was still a hint of wind and drizzle.

Grandma He didn’t go out and made a quilt for Mei Xue at home.

Mei Xue also followed her grandmother's example and helped her bounce the cotton. Then she took out a bow and started to bounce the cotton.

That voice is pleasant to hear.

Playing cotton is a strenuous job. Grandma He got tired after doing it for a while. After watching it for a while, Mei Xue took it from her grandma and started to play slowly.

“You kid, you are so easy to do this kind of hard work that you can’t even thread a needle in for a long time.” Grandma He glared at Mei Xue angrily.

"But, if you beat me small, I will have more strength. Otherwise, why would I eat so much? So, from now on, I will do all the heavy work at home. I have enough strength, but I just need to eat more."

　　What you say is a correct statement.

Grandma He was even amused by her, "Okay, it just so happens that I am strong, old lady. From now on, I will do all the heavy work at home for you, so I won't tire you out like a dog."

 “No, I am willing, so I won’t be tired.”

 The mother-in-law and grandson spent a pleasant afternoon talking and laughing.

While cooking in the evening, Mei Xue couldn't help but ask her grandma about Aunt Meilian.

 Grandma He didn’t know what was going on when she heard Mei Xue say what Mei Lian told her.

"Speaking of which, your Aunt Mei Lian is also a poor child. When you first got married, your family had not yet been separated. There were two sons in the family, and the elder brother was above her. Those sisters got married early and didn't. at home.

 But the sister-in-law above is not a simple person. Your Aunt Meilian has two children now. In fact, she gave birth to three. "

 Grandma He hates talking about these things, which is really harmful to people.

 “Three?” Mei Xue was a little surprised.

"But no, the first child was a son. At that time, everyone's conditions were not good, and everyone had nothing to eat. If you, the rich man, were not a bit capable, you might not even be able to afford a wife."

 Grandma He gets angry when she talks about these bad things.

Her second sister-in-law was also a fool, otherwise she wouldn't have died in an unknown state.

There is a story as soon as you hear it. Mei Xue’s hands are moving non-stop, and her ears are serious when listening.

Meilian was picked on by her mother-in-law as soon as she got married. At that time, everyone was doing this, so she didn’t have any objections.

　　When she was pregnant with her first child, she looked a little bad, but her family's condition was poor and she couldn't go to the hospital for medical treatment.
