Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win
Chapter 239 Nutritional Supplements
Xu Manyue sighed helplessly and saw her problem at a glance, "Sister-in-law, you are just too afraid of falling and dare not step on the ground. As long as you overcome this, there will be no problem."
Mrs. Shen also knows her own problems, but knowing is one thing and being able to overcome them is another.
"I'm not that capable of buying a bicycle anyway, so there's no point in learning how to ride. I might as well just walk."
She uses these two legs much more skillfully than the two wheels.
Seeing her like this, Xu Manyue didn't say anything else.
In the blink of an eye, another few days passed.
The postman delivered another large package, as well as a letter and a remittance slip.
The old lady laughed when she saw it, "Of course, this must be sent by the third son to his wife."
"Third brother's wife, please open it and see what is written in the letter."
Xu Manyue took the letter and remittance slip and saw that they were indeed for her.
The remittance slip shows one hundred and fifty yuan.
All of a sudden, everyone in the Shen family looked at the remittance slip, feeling shocked, envious, complicated... in short, all kinds of emotions.
Even the old lady was shocked.
What's the concept of one hundred and fifty yuan? Last year, the whole family worked hard for half a year, but at the end of the year they only got eight or a few cents.
Because the brigade had no food, these eight yuan and a few cents were all they had.
Lin Luoxia lowered her eyes to hide the complexity in them.
Mrs. Shen was stunned. She leaned over to take a closer look and confirmed that she was not seeing things.
"Third sister-in-law, there's a lot of money here."
"Jingming...you won't give all your wealth to you, right?"
She had never seen so much money in her life. She thought that the few dollars of miscellaneous pocket money she had hidden was already a lot, but she didn't expect that the third brother would take out 150 dollars at once.
Xu Manyue put away the remittance slip, knowing in her heart that this was not all of Shen Jingming's assets.
He was a battalion-level cadre last year, with a monthly salary of more than 100 yuan. This year, he was promoted to deputy regimental commander, and his salary increased a lot.
After calculating the amount, deducting the twenty yuan he sent to her every month, the fifteen yuan he sent home, and his expenses in the army, he could still save a lot of money in a month.
The old lady looked at her sons and daughters-in-law, cleared her throat, and glanced at everyone.
"Don't tell me about what happened today. It's not easy for the third brother out there. That's money he earned with his life. Now his wife is pregnant again. Don't confuse the importance of things and cause trouble for the family."
Money moves people's hearts.
She didn't expect that the third brother would send so much money back. She thought it was just like usual, so she didn't ask them to avoid it.
Boss Shen waved his hand and said, "Mom, we know our limits. We know what we can and cannot say."
Although one hundred yuan is a huge sum of money for them.
But the third brother nearly died several times on the battlefield before he climbed to his current position. He has a high salary, and as the eldest brother, although he is envious, he cannot be jealous.
Shen Laoer felt a little complicated. Originally, he had the opportunity to join the army.
Unfortunately, he gave up that opportunity later.
However, if you think about it from another perspective, if he had joined the army in the first place, he might not have had the same abilities as the third brother.
"Mom, don't worry, we all understand."
The old lady nodded. "I understand. Mother doesn't have any requirements for you brothers. Family members may quarrel, but you still have to distinguish between outsiders and blood brothers who share the same parents as you."
Boss Shen and Second Boss Shen nodded.
They are still clear about this.
After beating up her two sons, the old lady looked at her eldest and second daughters-in-law again, and paused, "It's the same with you two. Since you have entered our Shen family, there are some things you can't do carelessly."
Her gaze lingered for a moment behind Lin Luoxia, as if hinting at something.
Lin Luoxia pursed her lips, knowing very well that these words were mainly directed at her.
The purpose was to get the bastard that Shen Jianyun had with another woman.
The old lady retracted her gaze and said, "Okay, you all should go back to the house first."
Now that I'm not working, my family has returned to the days of having only one meal a day, and it consists of thin cornmeal soup and half a sweet potato.
After eating everything, I was only about 40% full.
Therefore, when other people have nothing to do, they basically lie in their rooms to save energy.
Only when Shen Lao Da, Shen Lao Er, and Xu Manyue need to go to work, they can have an extra meal, and the food they eat is all dry.
Mrs. Shen looked at the big package and couldn't help swallowing. Based on her experience, there must be a lot of good things in it, maybe it was the sweet malted milk again.
The third brother would occasionally send a can of this stuff back to his mother. Last time, the old lady secretly made a cup for Xiaoshan to drink, and she saw it.
So after Xiaoshan left, she ran into the old lady's house and cried for a long time before she was able to drink a small sip.
It’s really sweet, I can’t really describe the taste, but it just tastes good.
The third brother is really rich.
Lin Luoxia's eyes also fell on the big package, but she didn't look at it for long. Instead, she quickly withdrew her gaze and left with Shen Baozhu, who was staring at the package.
Soon, everyone left, and only the old lady and Xu Manyue were left here.
Little did they know that Mrs. Shen didn't go far at all. Instead, she was hiding outside the door and looking inside through the crack.
She didn't want those things, she was just curious about what the third brother would send back to Xu Manyue.
At this moment, Shen Baozhu, who had returned, suddenly ran over and, imitating Shen Dasao's behavior, lay down through the crack of the door and looked inside.
This action almost scared Mrs. Shen to death. Fortunately, she reacted in time and did not scream out.
This damn girl was left with her by the old lady some time ago. She raised her for a month or two and beat and scolded her.
Although she has become more well-behaved, she always feels that this damn girl is secretly learning from her.
Like, now.
At this time, inside the house.
Xu Manyue opened the letter first. There was actually not much written on it. Apart from the beginning greeting her and the baby in her belly, and how they were doing, there were also some words about his future plans.
Because the child was not unexpected for both of them, Shen Jingming did not consider the issue of the child at the beginning.
In the letter, he wrote to her to take good care of the baby and that he would send her money, tickets and nutritional supplements needed for pregnancy every month.
He will also shorten the time for further study in the military academy as soon as possible and try to allow Xu Manyue to join the army as soon as possible.
After all, the living conditions in the brigade are still not as good as those in the army.
