EBE Chapter 411 Old 3
Chapter 411 Old 3
Li Cui knew the reason. "My family hasn't seen meat in months. We ate so much meat today. I wonder if our stomachs can handle it. The amount of meat they had in this meal is more than what we eat in a year."
Li Cui packed up the children. The second and third children searched their trouser pockets and took out a tin frog and soap, which made Li Cui feel like the sky was falling.
"Dad, come quickly, take a look. Are there any more soap and tin frogs? Big Egg, tell me, who else took other people's things?"
Yang Jianping came over and naturally saw it, so he untied his belt and wanted to take action.
Sidan took off his shoes.
Li Cui saw the brand new white socks and said, "Oh my God, Sidan, you have socks on your feet. Why are you wearing someone else's socks? His father, what should I do?"
This was the first time Yang Jianping had encountered such a thing. His child was so disappointing, "Why did you take other people's things?"
"I've wanted this tin frog for a long time. I asked my brother Huaibei, but he doesn't want to play with it anymore. My younger brother at home doesn't like to play with it either."
“I smell good, and I want to smell it every day.”
"I want to wear new clothes, new shoes, and new socks."
"You can't sneakily take things from other people's homes. Take them off and I'll return them. Li Cui, this is different from the military family compound. Do you want me to be punished?" Yang Jianping walked back and forth.
At the Cui and Lu families, the children saw the tin frog put into their trouser pockets and the socks put on their feet.
Zhao Sixiang was furious. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? People thought you took it. Your father will never be able to hold his head up high again. Old Lu, what should we do?"
Shen Jianan was also shocked. Although Li Cui was dirty, she couldn't teach the child to steal things. Shen Jianan always taught the children that the teacher was right and they should listen to the teacher.
Cui Ze was also surprised, because the tin frog was not a precious thing.
Li Cui was also in a bad mood. "Do I want to be stingy? You give birth to children one after another. Look at how tall your eldest child is. How tall is the 13-year-old child of the Jiang family? How did your children eat today?"
"You're eating from other people's plates. A table full of children are looking at you. You only eat the meat and not the vegetables. Do you think no one sees you? When you sent money back home, why didn't you think about us mothers having enough water for three meals a day?"
"I followed you when I was seventeen. Your eldest is ten years old this year, and I'm 28. I've been hungry for eleven years. Everyone thinks I followed you to the city to enjoy life. But you only left enough money to buy food. I grew my own vegetables, three years and three years after three years. I can see the end of my life. I've lived for eleven years. Your brother, your sister-in-law, your sister, your brother-in-law, your nephews and nieces, your nephews and nieces, your niece's wife, your nephew's husband, your nephew's wife, your nephew's husband, your nephew's husband, are all more important than the eight of us mothers."
"They used your hard-earned money to buy meat and drink. After I gave birth to my first child, I had no one to help me. I worked in the fields, cooked, and washed the diaper by myself. After I gave birth to my third child, you were eligible to accompany the army, and I shamelessly insisted on following you. But you were not happy."
"I have to take care of my parents-in-law and provide food and drink for my children. I have to swallow my bitterness and hold back my tears. Everyone in the family compound advises me to save more money for my children's health."
"I can't open my mouth. I have nowhere to say it. The Jiang family's almost two-year-old twins have been in kindergarten for over half a year. Zhao Sixiang also sent the three older ones, though they were only there for a few days before the break. The Cui family's conditions are even better."
"Yang Jianping, I wish I were dead. I would have nothing to do with you and these children. I wouldn't be hungry every day. Didn't you see today? The rations that came to our door were quite generous. The Jiang family's hospitality is better than that of state-owned restaurants."
"What did you bring? Nine mouths! I don't know how I managed to eat so much. The best and most filling meal I've ever had in my life was at someone else's house. I sat there like a boss, waiting for the food to come."
"Why didn't you smoke after you went to the Jiang family today? There's no smell of cigarettes in their house, and those lush green things aren't grass, they're flowers. But you're the only one who's in debt because of this house, 3000 yuan. You must have sent back 3000 yuan twice over the years, right? Why do you have to owe money to the Revolutionary Committee when you want to get your household registration? How can you sleep at night with so much debt?"
"The Jiang family is large, right? They also support their nephews and nieces. Today, the eldest nephew is cooking, the second nephew is taking care of the children, and the third nephew is sick. These are the real family. And you, you mistreat your own children and support others. Your Yang family members say that I cheated on you and the child is not yours. Otherwise, why do you love your nephews but not your own children?"
"Look at the faces of those kids. Whose children are they? I'll definitely ask Deputy Director Gu for a job. From now on, I'll eat my own food and have enough to eat. I hate tea before meals unless it's sugar water. After meals, what did Zhao Sixiang say? That's how the Lord treats us."
"Deputy Director Gu is a great guy. I'll go find him. If that doesn't work out, I'll go help with the road construction next spring. When school starts in March, I'll send my kids to school and let the teachers teach them."
"Get down, everyone." Li Cui took a fire poker and hit each of them.
"You have your parents around, how can you have the nerve to take things from other people's homes? Ah, your father is going to work tomorrow, and you are shorter than him for no reason. Why do you take other people's things? I told you to take their things." Li Cui cried and beat them, ten hits each.
After the fight, he asked Yang Jianping, "Do you want to return the things? There are two bottles of wine at home, take them too?"
Yang Jianping nodded, Li Cui went to clean up, came out and handed the basket to her husband, and went back.
Yang Jianping put the things into his clothes and quickly arrived at Jiang's house by himself. When he pushed the door open, the living room was empty. The person who came out to greet him was Ge Jun.
"Director Yang, did you leave anything behind? Everyone else is asleep."
"The children were playing and forgot to put the things down." Yang Jianping took out the tin frog, soap, socks, and then two bottles of white wine and Maotai.
"Director Yang, it's normal for children to forget about something while playing. Take the wine back." Ge Jun knew that Gu Lixia would not buy it, so he didn't dare to accept it.
"We came here for dinner today, but we didn't come empty-handed. It doesn't make sense. Please accept it, otherwise I won't be able to hold my head up in front of Deputy Director Gu." Yang Jianping said and left.
Ge Jun put his things in the storage room and went back to the house. He also happened to come out to use the toilet.
After returning home, Yang Jianping immediately wrote a letter, the main content of which was asking for money.
.........
Jiang Han served his mother a meal and talked about family matters.
Just as he was talking about how smart the big goose at home was, he suddenly thought of Jiang Xiu's idea of wanting a second child.
"Mom, if your physical condition allows, would you still want a third child? I mean, what do you think?"
