Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win
Chapter 28: Bicycles belong to everyone?
Besides, when she and the second son's wife first got married, they got up at five or six in the morning to work, for fear that their husband and in-laws would dislike them.
Xu Manyue glanced at the sky and saw the warm sunset faintly appearing on the top of the western mountain.
"Sister-in-law, what you said is not right. The sun has just risen in the morning, how come it is already noon?"
"Speaking of which, we all grew up in the countryside and worked in the fields since we were young. We shouldn't make mistakes when it comes to observing the weather and time."
Mrs. Shen was so angry that her chest was stuffy. She slammed the broom in her hand and threw it at Xu Manyue's feet. "Third brother, you don't care about your wife. You dare to contradict me, your sister-in-law, as soon as you come home. This is too much. I will definitely ride on your head in the future."
"After all, I'm older than her and the eldest daughter-in-law in the family. How can I say a few words to her?"
She was talking to Shen Jingming who was standing nearby wiping his bicycle, but her eyes were glancing at Xu Manyue.
Shen Jingming, who was bending over to clean the car, paused and said without raising his head, "Sister-in-law, I won't get involved in your affairs. You guys continue."
After saying that, he lowered his head and continued to wipe the body of the bicycle, as if what had just happened had not affected him at all.
Mrs. Shen: “…”
Come on, he is just pretending to be ignorant even though he knows the truth, to protect his own wife.
Unlike her, she is not loved by her mother-in-law and her husband, and she is not good at talking. It’s bad enough that she can’t win an argument with the second daughter-in-law, but now she can’t even win with the third daughter-in-law who just got married.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She glared at Xu Manyue and ran to the old lady's door to complain, "Mom, why don't you take care of your new daughter-in-law? She's bullying me to death."
The old lady had just hidden the money in her hand when she was almost startled by the eldest son's wife outside. She thought her little treasury had been discovered.
"Why are you yelling? It's no use calling mom." She turned her head and yelled outside.
When she has milk, she is a mother; when she has no milk, she is just a dead old lady.
Outside, Mrs. Shen looked at the closed door, feeling very aggrieved and silently wiping her tears, "Mother..."
As expected, she is the only one in the family who is not loved by her mother-in-law, her husband, and her sisters-in-law are more powerful than each other.
Xu Manyue fell silent as she watched this scene.
Who would have thought that Mrs. Shen, who was in her thirties, couldn't win an argument and actually went to complain to her mother-in-law. When her mother-in-law ignored her, she burst into tears out of grievance.
Isn’t it said that the Shen family is the best?
So, Mrs. Shen is an alternative and top-notch person?
In the corner of the yard, Lin Luoxia was quietly mending clothes, as if she was no longer surprised.
She finished mending the last piece of clothing and then began to comb the hair and alter the clothes of her two children.
Xu Manyue thought about it and decided to find something to do.
After all, both of her sisters-in-law were working, so she couldn't just sit there idle. Besides, today was her first day after marriage. Although she didn't have to cook, she still had to do other things.
But there was no water or food, so she couldn't do laundry or cook. The only work she could do was cleaning the house.
Xu Manyue looked around for a long time and just picked up the broom to go into the house to sweep the floor.
Suddenly, Shen Jingming called her over.
She was stunned for a moment, put down the broom and walked over.
Shen Jingming threw away the rag in his hand and gestured for her to look at the clean bicycle. "Can you ride it?"
Xu Manyue shook her head. How could she ride one? Not to mention her, there were not many people in this area who touched a bicycle, let alone rode one.
"Then I'll teach you. It will be easier for you to ride a bicycle to town or go back to your second uncle's house in the future." Shen Jingming said.
Xu Manyue was slightly startled and subconsciously looked at the bicycle.
She thought that this bike was borrowed from someone else and was used specifically to pick up the bride. After all, she had never heard that the Shen family had a bicycle before.
Shen Jingming saw through her thoughts at a glance, "I bought this bicycle when I came back yesterday, but it's not brand new."
His vacation was short this time, and he had wanted to come back as soon as possible to cancel his engagement. So when he arrived at the county and found someone wanting to sell his bicycle and exchange the money for some food coupons, he exchanged with that person without saying a word.
The bicycle was 70% new. After haggling for a long time, he got it for 50 yuan.
On the other side, Mrs. Shen's eyes lit up when she heard that it was bought. She immediately ran over and touched it up and down, "Oh, Third Brother, this is really what you bought."
Shen Jingming nodded, "Yeah."
Mrs. Shen smiled and wanted to ride on it right there, but she knew her own weight and didn't dare to ride it.
It’s okay if you fall, but if the car falls, that would be a big problem.
"That's great! From now on, we'll have bicycles at home. Who would still walk to town?"
After saying that, she turned around and pulled Lin Luoxia over. "Second brother's wife, look at this bicycle of ours." "Isn't it beautiful? Ride it around the team, and those people will be so envious."
Upon hearing this, everyone present knew what Mrs. Shen was planning. Now that the Shen family had not split up, she said that the bicycle belonged to everyone. As long as Shen Jingming, the person who bought the bicycle, did not object, it would really belong to everyone.
Lin Luoxia glanced at the bicycle and nodded, "Yeah, it looks good."
This is the first time she has seen a bicycle in her life. It would be great if it really belonged to everyone.
But she also knew in her heart that the third brother had not spoken yet, and his newly-married wife was still there, so it was not her turn to speak.
At this time, Boss Shen and Second Boss Shen came back.
Mrs. Shen quickly pulled her husband over and called Mr. Shen over as well, "Come here, come here, we bought a bicycle, come and see how it is, it will be convenient for you to go anywhere in the future."
"What bike?"
"Oh, that's the car that the third brother used to pick up his bride yesterday."
"Isn't that borrowed?"
"It's not borrowed. The third brother said he bought it."
Xu Manyue, who was standing aside, glanced at Shen Jingming and saw that he hadn't spoken a word. As a daughter-in-law who had just married in yesterday, she didn't know what to say either.
Boss Shen looked at the bicycle and then touched it himself.
This feel, this look, wow, it's really attractive.
"Third brother, did you really buy this car?"
Shen Jingming nodded, "Yes, I bought it, but I bought it as a betrothal gift for my wife."
Xu Manyue was stunned when she heard this and looked at the man.
This was just to fool others. Last night he had told her in person that he had come back to break off the engagement, so how could he possibly buy her a bicycle as a betrothal gift?
Mrs. Shen spoke subconsciously, "Whose daughter is so precious that she would use a bicycle as a betrothal gift? Hasn't she already given a betrothal gift of ten yuan?"
