Yuan Chunhua dared the lion to report that she had lost ten melons. She was trying to blackmail her.
There are quite a few people in the team who are just like Yuan Chunhua who are thinking of blackmailing people. When a group of female comrades reported their numbers, the head of the team leader also popped up. This is still nonsense.
But no matter how much or how little the compensation is, the Zhang Fengmei family will inevitably have to pay.
When Chen Xiuyun mentioned Zhang Fengmei's excitement, the expression on her face was a bit elated, and she was obviously very happy about her misfortune.
"Today someone proposed a door-to-door search. My heart skipped a beat. It was the first time I had done something bad and I thought I would be exposed." Chen Xiuyun said in a small voice: "You can't learn from me in the future. You have to have a clear conscience."
"
Jiang Xinyu nodded to show that she had learned the lesson, and then she said, "You still have to finish those melons quickly. I'll give some to you two sisters sometime."
Jiang Xinyu: “…”
When Jiang Xinyu heard the battle that happened in the morning, she regretted that she was not there and did not see the excitement today!
As someone who had quarreled with Zhang Fengmei, I don’t regret not seeing her being beaten!
When she finished her meal and refilled Xiao Hei's basin, Chen Yi, Widow Wang and Aunt Wu came together.
Widow Wang held a piece of red cloth in her left hand and a piece of meat in her right hand. Chen Yi, who had specially changed into a white shirt and gray trousers, held a pack of snacks wrapped in oil paper.
Aunt Wu also had a smile on her face.
Chen Xiuyun greeted the three people to come in, and Jiang Xinyu followed them in after washing her hands.
She listened to Comrade Chen Xiuyun and poured boiled water for Chen Yi's mother from a tea bottle.
Chen Yima took out two big unity sheets stacked together from her pocket. This is the so-called "tea money".
Wu Xiulian clicked her tongue inwardly. The money just now seemed to be more than ten yuan. She looked at the food on the table and thought to herself that Chen Xiuyun's family was not a bad person. The river shrimps were fried, and they tasted really delicious.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Xinyu and Chen Yi entered Jiang Yuzhu's room and sat down.
Jiang Yuzhu's room was tidy, and a small plate of peanuts was placed on the earthen table.
Jiang Xinyu was a little confused. She didn't know what the process was.
Nowadays, it seems that they have met each other, and then they have made a decision. Today, they seem to be living together. But it is much easier than when they got married before.
Jiang Xinyu opened two sheets of unity and said with a smile: "Your mother is quite generous."
Chen Yi took out a watch from his pocket and said, "I am more generous."
Jiang Xinyu took the watch, looked at it for a moment and then raised her lips, "This is from Longines."
The style of this watch is quite classic, and Jiang Xinyu fell in love with it at first sight.
"You really don't know how to live. This watch can buy you enough food."
Jiang Xinyu said it hypocritically, and the smile on her face disappeared.
She is not a person who can save money. She wants to eat well and drink well if she has some conditions. Dressing well every day is not possible for the time being. Now this watch has been sent to her heart.
Seeing Jiang Xinyu's happy face, Chen Yi chuckled lightly, his eyebrows and eyes relaxed.
Jiang Xinyu sat next to him and tugged on his sleeves.
His arms were empty and he was not wearing a watch.
Jiang Xinyu patted her chest and said, "Just wait. When I make money later, I will give you one as well."
He said "Hmm" softly, his voice was low and sweet.
Jiang Xinyu arranged her watch and said, "What are we doing sitting here? It feels a bit silly."
Chen Yi also felt a little silly, but it seems to be like this these days, you have to do as the Romans do, right?
The three female comrades outside were talking very enthusiastically. Aunt Wu was definitely in charge of the atmosphere. According to her, Jiang Xinyu and Chen Yi were definitely a perfect match. They were both talented and good-looking, and they were the most suitable in the team!
Originally, on an occasion like today, the man's and the woman's relatives would come over, but Widow Wang's family has no relatives here, Chen Xiuyun no longer associates with the Lao Jiang family, and even Ma Meili's family is not doing well.
People were coming and going, so there seemed to be very few people today.
The two of them were clasping their fingers and talking quietly in the room. The three female comrades outside were also talking happily.
After more than an hour, a few people got up and left.
Before leaving, Chen Xiuyun grabbed a handful of fried shrimps for Wu Xiulian and asked her to take them back to her children at home.
After the people left, the courtyard instantly became quiet.
Chen Xiuyun was shocked when she saw Jiang Xinyu happily arranging a watch.
She knew that Chen Yi's mother gave her little girl more than ten yuan in "tea money", but she didn't expect that Chen Yi also gave her a watch. There are not many men and women in the city who give watches to their weddings.
When conditions are so difficult, being willing to spend money is also a reflection of your attitude.
Chen Xiuyun has discovered that Chen Yi, like her little girl, is a loose-handed person, and she will have to talk to her about it in the future.
Chen Xiuyun took the piece of red cloth and said, "I'll make you a red dress."
It is very difficult to get red cloth these days. Even if there is some in the supply and marketing cooperative in town, it will be bought first by people with connections inside.
Jiang Xinyu said: "Let's make two shirts, one for each of us."
Chen Xiuyun rolled her eyes at her, "How old am I, and I'm still wearing red? Besides, this is the cloth given to you, so what's the point of wearing it on me?"
Jiang Xinyu said: "My mother is a flower in her forties, so why can't she wear red?"
Chen Xiuyun was amused by her, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes stretched.
She had no intention of listening to her little girl. Such a big piece of red cloth would look great in a red skirt. It would be very fashionable in the village and even in the county.
She made the floral skirt last time based on the drawings drawn by her little girl. The designs on the drawings were playful and elegant, so this time she planned to let her draw her own drawings.
After Chen Yi and Widow Wang returned home, they packed up their things and got on their bicycles to go to town again. He was going to make connections, give gifts, and try to find a job for Jiang Xinyu.
People and sophistication in job opportunities these days are far more complicated than in later generations. In later generations, entry into the workplace depends on academic qualifications and ability. Although it can also depend on relationships, academic qualifications are definitely a very important stepping stone. But now, people and relationships are the most important.
of.
Jiang Xinyu made the pig soap and hung it up to dry. After filling up the water tank at home, she went to the public house in the village.
Lin Rongping's parents were also there, talking to the captain and secretary, and looked quite excited.
Jiang Xinyu, a junior, said hello to everyone, and the Lin family couple forced a smile at her. They left not long after she left.
"Uncle Li, why did you call me here?"
Captain Li said: "You are not very quick at settling accounts. Come over and check Xiaolin's accounts and see if there are any discrepancies in the bills and records."
Jiang Xinyu hesitated, "Isn't this inappropriate?"
The secretary smoked a dry cigarette and said: "What's inappropriate? Didn't you calculate it well before?"
Jiang Xinyu didn't know what the fuss was about. Remembering the ugly faces of Lin Rongping's parents when they left, she had some suspicions in her mind.
