Considering that her daughter had to take care of Xiaoling, she had been living with Xiaoling in her parents' home for seven years since Xiaoling fell ill at the age of three. She had never let her daughter go out to earn a penny.

But, it's different now.

The eldest son died, the youngest son became a doctor, and then this disaster year happened.

One more person working means one more person earning money.

Aunt Xie felt that as mother and daughter, they could talk about anything.

Only then did he tell his daughter that he wanted her to find a job.

Who knew that as soon as I opened my mouth, my daughter would object so strongly.

"Mom, Sister Yuye is right. She can't leave."

Hearing the voices, Aunt Xie turned around and saw her daughter-in-law, Ma Lihua, standing behind her.

I couldn't help but blush.

What my daughter just said must have been heard by my daughter-in-law.

This is so bad. If you don't know, you might think that she, as the mother-in-law, is secretly talking bad about her daughter-in-law together with her own daughter.

"Mom, I'm young and healthy, so please find me a job. As long as you don't think I'm stupid, every penny I can earn is a penny."

They had three children. The daughter was always willful and capricious, the youngest son was spoiled since childhood, and only the eldest son helped his parents with work. The eldest son died again. Although the eldest daughter-in-law spoke eloquently and sounded like a filial daughter-in-law, in fact, in her heart, the eldest daughter-in-law was very powerful.

She gave birth to so many children, no matter sons, daughters, or the eldest daughter-in-law, no one had ever said anything to Aunt Xie.

"You are a new kid, and Shusheng is not at home. How can we let you work?"

Aunt Xie was touched, but also a little worried.

Firstly, they were worried about their youngest son. If he knew that they were using their daughter-in-law at home, he would definitely be angry given his temper.

Secondly, she was also worried about her relative Ma Changgui, who was a powerful man. When they were just engaged, Ma Changgui had already said the ugly words up front.

He said that Lihua was his Ma Changgui's daughter, who was brought up in pampered conditions. She would not be treated like a beast of burden in the Xie family. Otherwise, he would take his daughter home without caring about anyone's face.

"It's okay, just rest at home. Your father and I will find a way."

Since she doesn't even use her own daughter, Aunt Xie doesn't dare to use her youngest daughter-in-law at will.

"Mom, can you find me a job? If possible, please find me two."

"Two servings?"

Xie Yuye opened her eyes wide, looked at her sister-in-law, and smiled.

"Lihua, it's right for you to think this way. After all, I am just the daughter of the Xie family, and you are the daughter-in-law of the Xie family, Zhenggen. If you help the Xie family in this way, you are helping yourself."

"Stop talking, you!"

Aunt Xie glared at Yuye.

"Why don't you go wash clothes?"

"I'll wash it now."

Yuye picked up the bloody clothes, put them in the basin, and held it up.

"Mom, there are two eggs missing. Ask later to see which kid stole them."

"Go wash your clothes now. I know about this."

In years of famine, people could not even get enough grains, and white flour and eggs were rare.

Aunt Xie is a frugal person who lives a very meticulous life.

The eggs were given to her by her employer when she was a midwife. Plus, she had three hens at home, so she produced more than twenty eggs every week.

Eggs have two uses. One is to exchange them for money for emergency use.

The second is that if a child in the family is sick, I will make a bowl of egg noodle dumplings for him.

No matter how precious eggs are, losing two is not a big deal, but if a child steals them, that is a big deal. The eldest child is dead, and the five children are useless, how can they survive?
