Chapter 31 Aunt

Chapter 32 Aunt

"Hey, these shoes on Qingqing's feet are really nice. They are made of cowhide. They cost a lot of money, right? It seems that my second brother's family has made a lot of money this year, so I don't think he should be more filial to his mother..."

Everyone was paying New Year greetings to each other when the atmosphere was suddenly broken by such a sentence. Fang's father and mother were a little at a loss, and the old lady also looked worried. But thinking that it was the first day of the new year, the old lady didn't get angry and just raised her eyelids and looked at the big house. A glance at the daughter-in-law.

“Huizheng, go to the kitchen and see if the dumplings have been cooked. After dinner, let the children go visit each other and wish all the neighbors a happy new year..."

The eldest aunt originally wanted to say something more, but after receiving the old lady’s look, she could only shut her mouth and go into the kitchen.

 This matter was blocked in the morning. After lunch, the family was tired from all the hard work and went back to their respective houses to rest early.

Unexpectedly, when the eldest aunt came back the next day, the eldest aunt took up the issue again, with an obvious intention, pointing out that the second family made money but did not give it to the mother.

At this time, the Fang family has not yet been divided. Although several houses have been moved out, many major events still have to be reported to the old lady for decision-making, and the monthly income of each family must be handed over to the old lady in proportion. In the hands of the wife, it serves as the old lady’s pension.

But the second wife, who was once the poorest, is now willing to buy new leather shoes for her children. If they say that their family has no secrets, her eldest aunt Wang Huizheng will not believe it even if she is beaten to death.

“Second brother and sister, I didn’t want to say it originally, but my mother is still here and the family is not divided, so this rule cannot be broken. Don’t blame my sister-in-law for being more serious.”

Because Fang’s mother has no job, she has always been looked down upon by the old lady and her eldest son, so she has little status in the family. Now that her eldest sister-in-law is making trouble, she can only explain it with a low eyebrow.

“Sister-in-law is right, the rules cannot be broken. But we do not hide any money secretly. I keep the salary slips of Decai and Daming every month. If sister-in-law doesn’t believe it, I can show it to you.”

Wang Huizheng covered his mouth and snickered, "The second brother and sister are out of touch now. If you make money, I will only be happy for you. But my mother still only gives me a small amount of living expenses, which is a bit unreasonable..."

 Old Mrs. Fang sat at the table and watched the two daughters-in-law bickering with a sullen face. Although she did not speak, her dissatisfaction could be seen.

Fang Qing felt very uncomfortable when she saw her mother being made difficult for her. Just as she was about to step forward to explain, she was grabbed by the old uncle behind her. Then her old uncle Fang Deli stepped forward and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you always staring at the second brother's family? Second brother Even if the second sister-in-law really has a problem, it's because the mother is worried. You are so active... Tsk, why can you still share the money? "

The eldest aunt was so angry at her brother-in-law's words that her face trembled. But her mother-in-law's brother-in-law was her thorn in her side, so she didn't dare to offend him easily, and she didn't dare to make a big fuss, so in the end she had no choice but to shut her mouth angrily.

Seeing this, Fang Deli pointed to the shoes on Fang Qing's feet nonchalantly, "I bought those leather shoes for Qing Yatou. I went out to work this time and made money when I came back. Is it okay to bring a pair of shoes for my niece?" "

But the aunt Fang Cuiping sitting next to the old lady was a little unhappy, "Deli, that Mimi is also your niece. Why didn't you say you would bring a gift to my Mimi? Your partiality is a bit too obvious. Already?"

Fang Qing raised his head and glanced at his cousin Li Lemi who was standing next to her grandma. When she saw her sister, who was originally smiling, she was also staring at the shoes on her feet, and she immediately regretted wearing them today.

Sister Mimi is a few years older than her. She is currently studying at the Provincial Medical College. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also very good at handling interpersonal relationships. She is the most popular person wherever she goes. Unlike me, I was timid and didn't like to go out since I was a child, and I was always a little reluctant to meet strangers. When outsiders mentioned the two sisters of the Fang family, everyone only praised Mimi, but few people knew about her.

 The thing that Sister Mimi was most proud of was her appearance. I couldn't tell it when I was a child, but now that I have grown up, Sister Mimi always looks at me with a fighting spirit in her eyes. No matter how slow Fang Qing is, she understands what's going on.

So, whenever she stood with Sister Mimi, she tried to dress up as earthly as possible, in order to eliminate the unpleasantness between the sisters.

 Only I forgot about the new shoes under my feet today...

The atmosphere in the room was suddenly a little strange. Fang Qing couldn't help but take a few steps back and wanted to go back to the house to change her shoes, but the old man stood in front of her calmly.

"Hey, eldest sister, I don't dare to do anything in front of you. The eldest brother-in-law runs a factory. I haven't seen any good things in your family. What's missing from me? Besides, you haven't come back for a long time. How can I know the rice? What size does rice wear..."

Seeing that the brother and sister were about to fight, the old lady finally coughed twice, "Okay, okay, it's not just a pair of shoes, why are you so serious about it? I will give your niece a big red envelope later, Mimi doesn't do it often." Come back, but as an uncle, you can’t live without our things!”

Uncle Fang Deli quickly said yes, then ran over to rub the old lady’s shoulders and joke, and the atmosphere at home relaxed.

After dinner, Li Lemi took Fang Qing out for a walk. He took a look at the leather shoes on Fang Qing's feet and smiled proudly. "I have seen your shoes before, but they were last year's model. I still have them." I’ve worn a similar pair twice, but now that I’m taller, the shoes are too small, so I’ll give them to you!”

Fang Qing tried hard to maintain a smile and declined politely. Although in this era it is customary for younger sisters to wear older sisters’ old clothes, it also depends on who they are.

The natural giving gesture on Sister Mimi's face still made Fang Qing feel a little uncomfortable, so he could only change the topic quietly, praising her sister's beautiful clothes for a while, and her skin for a while. Only then did the relationship between the two sisters recover. close.

 As soon as the fifth day of the Lunar New Year passes, the New Year comes to an end. In previous years, each family had already returned to their own home, but this year, the aunt's family, who disliked staying in the old house the least, suddenly stayed for two more days.

In the evening, Fang Qing got up to drink water, and unexpectedly found her aunt sneaking into her grandma's house. Fang Qing's intuition told herself that there must be something wrong with her aunt, so she followed her quietly.

 Inside the house, the aunt’s voice came out clearly.

“Mom, do you have any money? Lend me some, I need it urgently, and I’ll give it back to you in a few days!”

Fang Qing outside the door was stunned. Her aunt's family was the richest among these houses. How could she suddenly borrow money from her grandma?

Although Grandma Fang was surprised, she did not hesitate, "Borrow money? How much does it cost?"

 “Ten thousand.”

The tea cup on the table in the room fell over. After a while of fussing, grandma’s voice finally sounded different.

"Cuiping, you...what do you need so much money for? Besides, I am an old woman, how can I have so much money?"

Auntie's tone was obviously disappointed, "Well, five thousand, you should have five thousand, right?"

The room was quiet for a while, and Grandma Fang finally sighed, "Ping, tell mom the truth, is there something wrong with Shoucai's factory?"
