The Eldest Sister is Like a Stepmother [60’s]

Men are sometimes very careless, plus Xiao Daqiang is Xiao Yu’s father, the image of a father in the child’s heart is very stalwart, so even if the child grows up and the father starts to get old, this image is still there. Because of this, Jin Woo never thought that his stalwart father needed to be picked up by himself.

However, when he came over on a bicycle and saw his father getting closer, he suddenly realized that his father was old and he had grown up.

Xiao Daqiang: “Your daughter-in-law is a good one.” As a father-in-law, he rarely had contact with his daughter-in-law, nor would he specifically say whether her daughter-in-law was good or bad, so he should avoid suspicion.

Lin Dajun: “My sister is the best.”

Jin-woo hummed.

When the three of them arrived at Xiao’s yard, the dishes had just been prepared. Lin Yiyi and Qin Xiangju spent some time washing the crabs and shrimps.

Lin Yiyi just brought the crab out, then poured the soy sauce into the steamed crab, and finally sprinkled a handful of green onions, poured the hot oil in the pot on top, and the crab with green onion oil came out of the oven like this. good to eat.

Lin Dajun: “Sister, what are you doing, why are you so fragrant?”

Lin Yiyi: “The crab that was exchanged on the trading day today, go wash your hands, and you can eat.”

Lin Dajun: “Hey.”

Jin Yu parked the bicycle in the utility room and washed his hands. Lin Sanjun and the other children were already seated, staring at the white and tender crab meat, because he had never eaten it, so he was very curious.

Xiao Daqiang: “The second daughter-in-law has worked hard.” He washed his hands and took a seat. But when it comes to this, the second child is really particular. In the countryside, unless you go to work, your hands are very dirty after work and you have to wash your hands before you can eat. Generally, if you don’t go to work, you don’t wash your hands carefully before eating.

Lin Yiyi: “It’s not hard, it’s hard work when you come from the commune. This is a crab with scallion oil, this is braised shrimp, you can try it.” After saying that, she gave Qin Xiangju a chopstick and a crab with oily scallion, “Today, my mother washes the crab. You’ve worked hard, try it first.”

Qin Xiangju: “Then I’m welcome.”

Lin Yiyi smiled and went to get the beer again: “Brother Yu.”

Xiao Yu took the beer, buttoned it on the stool, and the hijab opened. He filled Xiao Daqiang first: “This is beer, you can drink it.”

Xiao Daqiang has only drank small wine and liquor in his life, but never beer. He smelled it and felt novel: “Is this beer, is it a foreign thing?”

Jin-Woo: “No, it’s produced in our country, but it’s not common.”

Lin Yiyi: “Give my mother some to try.”

Qin Xiangju: “No no no, I won’t drink, I won’t drink…”

Lin Yiyi said: “Occasionally drink a little over the mouth, and it tastes good.” In modern times, there is no one in their family who can’t drink. She started drinking beer when she was seven or eight years old, especially in summer, when her father was drinking beer , she will also pour half a bowl, very cool, very happy.

Qin Xiangju’s personality is so strong that her daughter-in-law has spoken, but she has not refused. Besides, she is also curious. After drinking this novelty, you can still brag when you go back to the countryside. In the country, women just like to show off this and that, but it’s not really showing off, they’re just too boring.

Xiao Daqiang: “This crab is delicious. I used to see that there was not much meat in this thing. It was uncomfortable to eat, but I didn’t expect it to be delicious.”

Lin Yiyi: “Eat more if you like.” She made three plates, a full nine crabs, one for each person, and each person has several chopsticks.

Qin Xiangju: “If you want me to say, the second child is lucky. He can do everything, write scripts, cook, and change shoes for the second child. In this transaction, he changed two pairs of cloth shoes for the second child. It didn’t change.”

Lin Yiyi: “…” That’s because I don’t have her code.

But Jin-woo doesn’t know. Hearing his mother said that she didn’t change her own, Jin Yu asked, “Why not?” He went back to the department store to see if there was anything suitable for his daughter-in-law to wear. After calculating my own money, I have saved some more in the past few months. Although there is not as much as buying a watch before, it should be enough to buy a pair of shoes.

Lin Yiyi hurriedly said, “The shoes made by my aunt are all too big. I don’t have my yardage. My mother loves me. Don’t listen to my mother.”

Qin Xiangju: “I’ll make you two pairs later. You have small feet, so it’s not easy to buy shoes.” Besides, everyone makes shoes bigger, so they can wear them for a few more years, so the size of the daughter-in-law is even more difficult to buy.

Lin Yiyi hurriedly said, “Mother, you’ve worked too hard.”

Qin Xiangju: “I don’t have much work to do now. I don’t have to go to work. I’m idle.”

Lin Yiyi: “Then I’ll give you the fabric.”

Qin Xiangju: “No, there are fabrics at home, and the fabrics you bring every year are still hidden.”

Lin Yiyi and Xiao Yu have fabrics for urban residents’ welfare every year. One person is only about 1.7 feet (17 feet, a top for women is four feet, and a top for men is 6 feet). Lin Yiyi usually buys more clothes in the system mall. , and the second is to go to the old tailor to make clothes. Some fabrics are bought directly from the old tailor, so the fabrics for residents’ welfare are given to Qin Xiangju every year. Moreover, there are four elders in the Qin family, and Lin Yiyi feels that if he has the conditions, these fabrics should be given to them.

However, what she gave to these urban residents was not because she was stingy or careless, but because the old man was someone who saved his whole life after all, and gave too much, they would think that they were good at spending money, and they would only use the welfare of the residents. If you give them something, they won’t think much about it.

This is the first time Xiao Daqiang has experienced the feeling of drinking beer and eating crabs and shrimps with his son. During the Chinese New Year, he also drank small wine with his sons, but the feeling is completely different from now, probably because the food is good now. Now, it may be because the conditions at home are better, or because of the beer, in short, the mood is extraordinarily relaxed now. Seeing that his wife was also drinking beer, the happiness on her face was so obvious, she drank it in small sips, Xiao Daqiang suddenly felt that he had treated his wife badly in his life. She took care of two elderly people and raised four children with herself, and she never gave her anything. Even if she gave her money to be the housekeeper, she was reluctant to spend it. Every penny was spent carefully and carefully on the children.

Xiao Daqiang sighed, he didn’t give his wife a good life, but fortunately he has a promising son. Thinking about it this way, Xiao Daqiang looked at Xiao Yu’s eyes, full of love and kindness, making Xiao Yu’s face inexplicable.

Qin Xiangju didn’t notice Xiao Daqiang, she was chatting with Lin Yiyi, from beer to the countryside, and then said Qi Spinach: “One by one, your sister-in-law is going to send Xiaorui and Xiaozhu to primary school. According to me, now It’s a little early, Xiao Rui is only five years old, and Xiao Zhu is only six years old, and there is no primary school in our brigade, so we have to send it to your parents’ house, this child is too young, I’m worried.”

When Lin Yiyi heard it, “Isn’t this five- or six-year-old kid who can’t keep up with the primary school curriculum?” There are gifted children in modern times, but they didn’t go to primary school at the very beginning. They all came from kindergarten. When they were in kindergarten, they found Only when his IQ is high can he skip grades to go to primary school. Otherwise, a child who has never received an education will not even know 12345, and no genius can go to the first grade.

Qin Xiangju: “Isn’t it? That’s what I mean, but… the old people just don’t listen.” The old people’s original words are not like this. She also said that Lin Wujun started to go to bed when he was three years old, and her son has already I’m five years old, why can’t I go to school? However, Qin Xiangju wouldn’t say this to Lin Yiyi. Originally, the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law had a bit of a contradiction, and the contradiction was even bigger. It’s hard to ease up now, she doesn’t want to destroy the relationship.

Lin Yiyi smiled and comforted: “Don’t worry about it. You have to take care of your grandparents, discipline your son, and then take care of your grandson. It’s tiring. Children are the responsibility of parents since ancient times. If parents don’t even care about their children, then What did you do when you were born? You don’t have to let the mother-in-law take care of the son and then the grandson. Besides, if you don’t approve of Xiaorui and Xiaozhu going to school, if something happens to them in the future, the child’s parents will definitely put the blame on you. It’s not good to blame you. So in my opinion, let the sister-in-law decide what to do. “

Xiao Daqiang said: “What the second wife said makes sense. Let the eldest couple take care of this matter.”

Qin Xiangju also didn’t want to care: “Then I don’t care. But… but they sent the children to the primary school at the Shanglin Production Brigade. These two children are only five or six years old, can they do it?” The eldest daughter-in-law said, let The brother-in-law of the Lin family helps to take care of it, but why should others help? Qin Xiangju couldn’t say such words.

Lin Yiyi said: “Whether it can be done, sister-in-law and the others will think for themselves.”

Qin Xiangju: “Yes, I don’t care.”

Lin Yiyi: “It seems that there are no primary schools in the brigades near the Shanglin Production Brigade.”

Qin Xiangju: “No. These brigades are relatively close. When the primary school was built, it was also because the battalion on your mother’s side had a doctor, so the primary school was built there.” This is a normal thing.

Lin Yiyi said: “Mother, I have an idea, maybe Xiaorui Xiaozhu doesn’t need to be sent there to go to school. Besides, they will definitely not be able to keep up with the elementary school courses.”

Jin Yu was curious: “What do you think?”

Lin Yiyi: “Now there are only primary schools in the brigade, and there is only one junior high school in a commune, which is the commune junior high school, and high school students have to come to the county seat. However, I think the biggest difference between the commune and the county seat is the nursery school. Many children in the county seat receive a relatively low education. Early, start with a nursery. Therefore, I think our Datang production team can open a nursery. We will not discuss the salary for the time being. If you give 20 catties or 30 catties of food a month, there will definitely be people who are willing to come. And the income of the nursery can be It can be money or food. For example, if each child pays 2 catties of food a month, a dozen or so children can pay a nursery teacher for a month. What do you think?”

this?

Qin Xiangju and Xiao Daqiang were stunned. They didn’t dare to express their opinions at all. They never thought that their daughter-in-law would be so courageous that they even dared to think about the nursery.

Xiao Yu thought for a while: “This idea is fine. There are more than a dozen children in a brigade. If you give 2 catties of food a month, it means that some children in the family will be brought. Many parents are willing.”

Lin Yiyi: “Isn’t it? Also, it’s not just the children in the brigade, but also from other brigades. The village can assure the children’s parents that the nursery school can send the children to their respective brigade every day after school, so that As a result, more families are willing to send their children.” Two catties of food a month, this fee is indeed very low. Even if you give two catties of coarse grains, it is only 8 cents.

Xiao Yu said: “Dad, after you go back, mention it to the captain.”

His son said so, of course Xiao Daqiang agreed. Besides, their second son is the smartest, and the second daughter-in-law is the second smartest. They think there is no problem, so there must be no problem.

Of course, if it was just Lin Yiyi’s suggestion, Xiao Daqiang would definitely not take it seriously, but Xiao Daqiang said that it was feasible, then the meaning in Xiao Daqiang’s heart was different, and because Xiao Yu said it was feasible, Xiao Daqiang felt that Lin Yiyi was smart, this idea is all can figure it out.

Qin Xiangju said: “If there is a nursery school in the brigade, then Xiaorui Xiaozhu can go to school in the nursery school of the brigade, and there is no need to go to the forest production brigade.”

Lin Yiyi said: “No, after two or three years of study in the nursery school, the knowledge is firmer, and it is just right to go to the first grade at the age of seven or eight.”

Qin Xiangju: “Okay, that’s it. When I go back tomorrow, the old man will go to work in the commune, and I will tell the captain.”

Xiao Daqiang: “Why don’t you tell the commune directly?”

Lin Yiyi: “It’s not appropriate, what I told the commune, if it is in the commune, and the family sends the children to the commune nursery school, it’s too far, who will go?”

Qin Xiangju: “That’s it.”

Dinner time ended during everyone’s discussion. After dinner, Qin Xiangju helped to clean up, but Lin Yiyi did not refuse. Qin Xiangju, who is always busy, was used to her work, and she came to her son’s house. Yiyi is too polite, it will make Qin Xiangju feel like she is a guest. In the hearts of many mothers, the son’s home is her home. On the contrary, if Lin Yiyi is not polite to her, she will feel happy instead.

After packing up, it was still early. Lin Yiyi took Qin Xiangju out for a walk. Even if Qin Xiangju had a chance to come to the county, she would come and go in a hurry. It was the first time to hang out like this. The wife was shopping, and Qin Xiangju felt that she was a little different.

After returning, Lin Yiyi took out two sets of clothes: “Father and mother, this is for you to take a bath and change later. This one belongs to mother and this one belongs to father.”

Qin Xiangju: “This… when did you prepare this?”

Lin Yiyi: “I prepared it when I went out to pull the car, mother, you take a shower first, and I’ll go watch the child.”
