Chapter 266 Mother in a patriarchal family (4)
Knowing that her daughter-in-law was determined to resign, Luo Ying truly breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good to resign. After resigning, she can eat three meals a day at home. She can give her daughter-in-law a good supplement. It's pitiful that she is already thin, but she is even thinner because of pregnancy.
Su Tang also noticed the dark spots under her mother-in-law's eyes and the haggard look on her face. Her body, which was still somewhat strong, had lost a lot of weight after experiencing the pain of being sent away from a white-haired person to a black-haired person.
She couldn't help but feel distressed and said: "Mom, you should eat quickly. You won't have to get up so early to make breakfast in the future. We can go out to buy food. You should rest more and take good care of your body.
The baby in my belly and I still have to rely on you. In this city, I am only familiar with you. "
Luo Ying could hear the feeling of loneliness and pity from her daughter-in-law's words, and her eyes felt sour for a moment.
Then I thought about my son who died young. He was not yet thirty years old. He was so young. Why did he die?
The happy face of knowing that he was going to be a father was still in front of him, but only a week later, the news of the sacrifice reached his family, and he didn't even have time to take a look at his own child.
There is also a daughter-in-law who married into this strange city and is not familiar with her life. How could her son have the heart to leave like this?
Thinking of her eldest son who had died, Luo Ying became worried about her younger son who was serving as a soldier outside. After his eldest son's death, he took leave and came back to take care of the funeral, but he only stayed for a month. It is said that he received another mission. Left in a hurry.
My little son must not let anything happen again.
My daughter-in-law must also be safe.
Luo Ying didn't want her daughter-in-law to worry, so she tried her best to hold back her tears and said, "How can that be possible? My only hobby is cooking, so I won't be allowed to cook. How uncomfortable it is for me.
Don't worry, Ah Tang. When I was in a state-owned hotel, I got up earlier than this. I'm used to getting up, so I won't be tired.
As long as you are happy eating, mom will be satisfied. "
"Is the egg and pumpkin porridge enough? Mom also rolled out the noodles. Yesterday's pig's trotters still had a lot of soup. If it's not enough, I can cook the noodles right away."
"Enough to eat."
Su Tang nodded hurriedly, fearing that her mother-in-law would be busy in the kitchen again, so he forced her to sit down at the dining table.
Luo Ying looked at her daughter-in-law who was satisfied with her meal and drank the porridge from the bowl.
After eating, she had to go to the factory. Su Tang didn't want her mother-in-law to go with her. First, her mother-in-law was old and the journey was long. Second, there were people in the factory who she didn't deal with. She was afraid that someone would say something unpleasant and upset her. Uncomfortable.
But Luo Ying didn't worry about her daughter-in-law going alone. She rode a bicycle, let her daughter-in-law sit in the back, and drove her steadily to the Lanhua Garment Factory.
Su Tang asked her mother-in-law to wait at the door, showed her work badge, and went in to find the workshop director. After hearing Su Tang's intention, the workshop director tried to persuade her to stay. After all, Su Tang was a model worker in their factory. Her hands and feet were quick and fast, even if she was pregnant. Delay in work.
He never asks for leave all year round, and he is good-looking. He is the main force in publicity and magazine shoots.
But when she heard Su Tang said that the fetus was unstable and she needed to raise the fetus, she immediately agreed to Su Tang's resignation. After all, a pregnant woman could not bear the responsibility if something happened in the factory. The resignation went smoothly, and the factory also returned to Su Tang the deposit that was used as a guarantee when she first came in. The deposit of one hundred yuan, Su Tang remembered, was sewn into her clothes by her mother and asked her to bring it.
However, the factory pays wages on the 15th of every month, and this month has only passed thirteen days. Su Tang will not be able to collect this month's wages until next month.
Su Tang felt complicated, but she was not worried about not getting her salary.
Orchid Garment Factory is a big factory after all, and it won't pay Su Tang's salary. Su Tang is a little reluctant to give up.
At that time, everyone in the family said that the sisters were losers. Grandma and the eldest mother-in-law pointed at them and scolded them all day long, scolding them for making their father unable to succeed and not even having a pot-breaking person after his death.
They are unable to do the heaviest and most tiring work at home, but they can only eat leftovers from washing pots of water.
In the first month when Su Tang came here, because of her outstanding performance, in addition to the salary of 98 yuan, she also received a bonus of 36 yuan. She only kept 18 yuan for herself and sent all of it back to She married her parents just to prove that she could make money and that she was not a loser.
After working in this factory for nearly four years, my monthly salary was enough to feed myself and support my fiancé, but all was sent to my family. However, my parents still felt that only my nephew could provide for them in old age, and their daughter was raised by someone else's family.
Su Tang felt a little depressed as she thought about it. She didn't know if it was because of her pregnancy. She felt that the emotions in this world made her very unhappy. She felt like she was holding a breath in her chest and couldn't let it out.
Seeing that her daughter-in-law's face was not good, Luo Ying was a little anxious and regretted not going in with her, so she took a few steps forward until the security guard stopped her. He said: "Slow down, slow down, don't be anxious, don't panic."
"Mom." Su Tang called her, then walked over, pulled her and said, "I'm fine, everything has been done. Just come to collect this month's salary on the 15th of next month. Let's go back."
"Okay, okay, let's go back." Luo Ying thought, and sent her daughter-in-law home before going to the vegetable market. It was around nine o'clock when she got home. She cooked rice and black-bone chicken, then went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, and when she came back, the black-bone chicken was cooked. Now, let’s just stir-fry some vegetables and stew the goose in the evening.
Luo Ying had a good plan, but it was a pity that her daughter-in-law had to go to the market with her.
"Mom, I've been here for so long, and I only went to the vegetable market when I was in love with Chengwen. Let me go shopping with you today.
I'm really fine, if I was uncomfortable I would have said it, how could I make fun of my own child. "
The daughter-in-law said she was pitiful, but Luo Ying couldn't bear it, so she took her with her.
Luo Ying always went to the vegetable market by herself, not with her neighbors, because she had been hungry. After going through that difficult period, she felt that nothing was more important than eating.
When her husband was still an ordinary government employee and she had just become a full-time employee in a state-owned hotel, she was very willing to eat. Eighty percent of her and her husband's monthly salary was spent on food.
I never had the concept of saving money, it was almost every month.
After my husband earns money from his business, he can eat well.
The neighbors had different ideas from hers. They thought she couldn't live a good life and spent money lavishly. They tried to change her, but Luo Ying couldn't listen to those nagging. She would rather come to the market alone and be called lonely than talk to those who talk too much. Talkative people come together to buy groceries.
Luo Ying was still a little afraid that her daughter-in-law would talk about her, but seeing that her daughter-in-law was more willing to buy groceries than she was, she immediately felt relieved. It turned out to be her daughter-in-law. They were destined by God, and they both liked it.
Yes, food is the most important thing for people. How can we live well if we don’t eat well?
