……
By the next morning, Li Ang was doing as usual.
However, he could also clearly feel that the neighbors in the courtyard were talking about the matter of the Jia Zhang family being robbed of 500 yuan last night. Apart from gloating, some people also complained about Grandpa One.
This was very normal. Every time the Jia family stirred up trouble, it was basically Yi Zhonghai who used all kinds of moral blackmail to forcefully calm the matter down. He also played a large part in the difficult and tragic image Qin Huiru had created.
Now, the Jia Zhang Group could actually save up a huge sum of 500 yuan. Coupled with the fact that Qin Huiru had been investigated at the rolling mill, what did this mean?
It meant that Yi Zhonghai did not know how to read people and had tricked everyone!
That was not all. Li Ang had even heard someone privately guess that there was no special relationship between First Uncle and the Jia family.
"Serves you right!" Li Ang gloated in his heart, but on the surface, he did what he was supposed to do.
After having breakfast with the little loli, he rode the tricycle with the tea tray and a few pieces of bamboo to the waste collection station.
"Good morning, Master!"
"Good morning, Master!"
Li Ang only nodded in response to his two disciples 'greetings.
"Prepare your things. I'll start teaching you how to load the car today.”
"Yes, Master!"
"Thank you, Master."
Originally, the two disciples were still busy moving things after saying that. Li Ang only wanted them to take the small bamboo chair and bamboo basket away, and he personally took the tea tray to his room.
After arranging the little loli, Li Ang spent some time putting the tea tray away.
"Xiao Li, is this the tea tray you mentioned?”Station Chief Zhao walked into the room with a smile. His eyes were filled with surprise and joy as he looked at the tea tray.
He did not blame him for having such a big reaction. The tea tray Li Ang made was a multi-functional tea tray from the later generations.
Although it was called a plate, it was actually a small cabinet.
Tea leaves and tea sets could be placed in the cabinet, and a tea tray with simple patterns was carved on the cabinet.
This kind of thing was really nothing in the future. It was common to use large tree roots to carve large tea tables.
However, in this era, even if the tea tray had not been painted and was only the color of wood, it was still a rather exquisite piece of artwork in the eyes of Station Chief Zhao. At the same time, he thought of a certain leader who liked to drink tea.
"Yes, stationmaster." Li Ang nodded and then explained on the spot what to put and what to put. He also explained the meaning of the carved lines.
The more he spoke, the more he liked it, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he was.
"Xiao Li, let me have this tea tray.”
"Stationmaster, it hasn't been painted yet. It can't be used.”Li Ang shook his head." If you don't paint it, it'll get moldy and deformed easily.”
"No problem. Tell me what paint you want. I'll do it today.”Commander Zhao promised without hesitation.
Although he had promised to help Li Ang get some wood paint, he had not taken it to heart.
In Station Chief Zhao's perception, no matter how beautiful the tea tray was, it was just a tea tray. Who would have thought that the tea tray he thought was so different from the real thing? His attitude was definitely different.
"I want some of all kinds, but I don't have the money to buy them, stationmaster.”Li Ang said.
"What are you saying? Can you afford this money?”Station Chief Zhao smiled and patted him on the shoulder." Oh right, how much is this tea tray? I'll buy it."”
"I used the wood I collected and didn't spend any money.”Li Ang shook his head.
"Wood is wood. Your skills are different.”Station Chief Zhao did not intend to take advantage of this.
After all, he was planning to give this tea tray to the leader. If the leader asked about it and found out that he, a stationmaster, actually took advantage of his workers, what good would it do?
"There's really no need." Li Ang still shook his head.
"Xiao Li, did you stay up late last night?”Station Chief Zhao laughed.
"It's indeed quite late." Li Ang nodded, but he did not say that he had been digging sweet potatoes very late.
"Isn't that enough?" Station Chief Zhao nodded." Alright, don't decline. As a leader, how can I take advantage of you? If this gets out, do I still have to work?”
"Then give me one yuan." Li Ang could only 'reluctantly' offer a low price.
"That won't do. I'm still taking advantage of this price.”Station Chief Zhao thought for a moment." How about this? I won't give you too much. I'll give you the same amount as the previous bicycle. It's five yuan. Do you want it?"”
"That's too much, station chief. If you don't think one yuan is appropriate, then two yuan is fine.”
"No, just five yuan!" As Station Chief Zhao spoke, he took out five yuan and stuffed it into Li Ang's hands.
Li Ang even pushed it a few times. In the end, Station Chief Zhao's face darkened before he reluctantly accepted it.
In fact, five yuan was a lot. Even the design alone was worth more than five yuan, let alone the salary. Even in this era, five yuan was really a lot.
However, Li Ang did not intend to ask for more. Five yuan was good enough. If he earned too much, it would easily attract jealousy. It did not conform to his principle of only wanting to live a good life.
As for Station Chief Zhao, he did not think that five yuan was too little. After all, Nian Yue's money was still very valuable.
However, since it was a gift for the leader, it would not be good if it was too cheap. However, if it was too expensive, Station Chief Zhao would not be willing to part with it, so five yuan was just right.
With enough motivation, Station Chief Zhao's work efficiency immediately changed.
In less than an hour, someone rode a bicycle to the waste collection station and handed some bottles to Station Chief Zhao.
Station Chief Zhao handed out cigarettes and even treated the man to a cup of tea. After chatting for a while, he sent the man off.
Li Ang was now the treasure of the waste collection station. In order to avoid being remembered, Station Chief Zhao did not let him appear during the entire process. Li Ang was happy to hide and teach his two apprentices how to assemble bicycles in the warehouse.
Just as Li Ang began to paint the tea tray that he had created and attracted the attention and admiration of his colleagues, Qin Huairu, who had returned home with a stick, was dumbfounded when she heard about what had happened last night!
The bones in his wrist and foot were fractured, so he should be resting in the hospital. However, hospitalization was expensive, and it would delay his business of finding someone to smooth over his relationship. If he could save money by bringing them home, how good would it be if Jia Zhangshi could take care of them?
However, Qin Huairu had never expected that she would be greeted with strange looks from her neighbors when she called for a tricycle to send him back to the quad after spending a night with him at the hospital.
At that time, Qin Huairu knew that something must have happened, and it was not a small matter. Otherwise, those neighbors would only dare to talk about her behind her back in the past. Today, they were just short of telling her directly!
After sending the stick back to his bed and paying for the tricycle, Qin Huiru immediately questioned Jia Zhangshi.
"Mom, when I just came back, the neighbors in the courtyard were pointing at me. Did you do something again?”
"No, I didn't do anything!" Jia Zhangshi retorted instinctively.
In fact, after she made a scene last night, she also realized that she had made a bad move, but the lost money really made Jia Zhangshi's heart ache. If she couldn't find someone to get the money back, she would never let it go.
"Alright, you won't tell me, right? Then I'll ask!”Qin Huairu said as she walked out.
"Enough! Qin Huairu, stop right there!”Jia Zhangshi's face darkened." What right do you have to give me face? You're the daughter-in-law of the Jia family, and you've even taken my son's job. You owe the Jia family!”
"How can you talk to your mother-in-law like this? Do you still know what filial piety is? If I had known that you were this kind of person, I wouldn't have let my son marry you back then. You heartless and ungrateful thing!”
Although these words did not contain any vulgarities, they were still very unpleasant to hear!
"Mom, from the day I married into the Jia family, I took good care of your son.”Qin Huairu's eyes were red as tears streamed down her cheeks." I've been filial to you for everything, but now you're saying that I'm heartless and ungrateful?”
"If I was really heartless and ungrateful, I would have brought Xiao Dang and Huai Hua back to the countryside a long time ago. Anyway, you don't like your two granddaughters. You only have one grandson in your eyes.”
"Why don't we do this? I don't have a job now anyway. As for you, just take the stick and live a good life in your Jia family. I'll bring Xiaodang and Huai Hua back to the village. We'll part ways. How about that?”
Jia Zhangshi had always been one to bully the weak and fear the strong. In addition, she knew very well that she could not leave Qin Huairu. Therefore, when she saw that her daughter-in-law was about to fall out with her, she instantly panicked.
However, she was extremely willing to admit defeat.
Therefore, she rolled her eyes and took out her son's photo. She hugged it in her arms and started wailing.
"My son, look at your wife. What kind of person is she?”
"You've only been away for a few years, and she's already starting to despise me as her mother-in-law!”
"Son! Take a good look!"
"Son! You heartless wife, you only know how to bully your mother!”
……
When Jia Zhang-shi's voice spread out of the house, the neighbors in the courtyard who had intended to stay outside to enjoy the melons after seeing Qin Huairu return with the stick immediately began to gloat.
"Listen, I told you, it's howling again!”
"Serves you right! How dare you say that Qin Huairu is unfilial? Why don't you take a look at yourself!”
"You're saying this as if Qin Huairu is a good bird.”
"To be honest, a daughter-in-law like Qin Huairu is really not bad.”
"Now that you mention it, it seems like that's indeed the case.”
"The Jia kid has been gone for so many years, and Qin Huairu hasn't remarried yet. Not only does she have to support three children, but she also has to support that evil mother-in-law.”
"You guys are too naive!”
"What do you mean?"
"Qin Huairu is from the countryside. It's her fortune to be able to marry into the city. What good do you think it will be if she returns to the countryside?”
"At most, she'll just marry again. What's so bad about that? Didn't you see that Qin Huiru looks like a Hu Mei Zi? How many men would want to stick their eyeballs to her!”
"That's easy for you to say. It's fine if Qin Huiru is alone, but she's still with her child. Do you think you can find a good one?”
"That's true. No matter how beautiful she is, her second marriage is worthless!”
"Moreover, if we don't eat the grain that is provided, do we have to go back to the countryside and starve?”
"You're saying that Qin Huairu doesn't want to remarry, but she doesn't want to return to the countryside?”
"That's right! Otherwise, why would Qin Huairu be so close to Silly Zhu? She even helped him wash his underwear. Do you think a normal widow would do that?”
"Good lord, now that you mention it, I understand. Qin Huairu is using the Jia family's conditions to find herself a better one? Is he interested in Silly Zhu?"
"What else? We know about washing underwear, but God knows how many more things we don't know.”
"Then why did she cut ties with Silly Zhu?”
"It's all for work. 27.50 yuan is a lot!”
"It's not just the salary. The Jia Zhang-shi also disagreed. If she hadn't gone to the steel mill to cause a ruckus, Qin Huiru and Silly Zhu might have been able to take this opportunity to get it done.”
"I don't know what that Jia Zhangshi is thinking. It's so good to live in a stupor. With a salary of 37.50 yuan and his only sister getting married after the New Year, there will be two rooms in the house and no mother-in-law to take care of them.”
"It's all because Jia Zhangshi was afraid that Qin Huairu would abandon her and the stick after marrying Silly Zhu. If you ask me, she's short-sighted!”
"I agree with that. Although Silly Zhu is often out of tune, his roots are still good. Otherwise, how could he have helped Qin Huiru's family for so long?”
"It's too late to say anything now. They've already cut ties with each other. Silly Zhu went to jail again. These two are finished!”
"That might not be the case. With Qin Huairu's methods, believe it or not, after Silly Zhu is released, she'll have to provide aid to the Jia family in less than three days!”
"It can't be, right? He's already in jail!"
"I think it's very possible that Qin Huairu can do it!”
……
As the neighbors gossiped among themselves, the confrontation between Qin Huairu and her mother-in-law entered the next round.
