Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s

Jiang Yanqiu and Yun Yinian didn't say anything. They went into Jiang Zhenzhu's room and didn't come out until someone called them to eat.

I don’t know whether Jiang Yuzhu did it intentionally or unintentionally, but her cooking skills are not as good as Jiang Chaojie’s. The food is either too salty or too bland.

But no one said anything. Jiang Anhua and Lu Yunxia thought that as long as Jiang Yuzhu was willing to do it, it would be fine, so that she wouldn't be unable to cook after getting married. Besides, they also knew that Jiang Yuzhu was playing tricks again.

Others think it’s okay as long as they don’t make it themselves, since they don’t eat it every day anyway.

Jiang Yuzhu waited and waited, and her meal was almost finished, but no one commented on her cooking.

This ruined her plan to push the cooking task onto Jiang Yanqiu, because Jiang Yanqiu was the best cook in the family.

If Jiang Yanqiu took care of all the meals, not only would the food be delicious, but she would also not have to do housework for a while.

But no one asked her. She would not take the initiative to ask Jiang Yanqiu to do anything. The other party came back like a refugee. If she asked Jiang Yanqiu to cook or do something else, wouldn’t she be called a vicious sister?

She could only pin her hopes on others and then go with the flow, but it seemed like she couldn't count on anyone.

Before they finished their meal, the door was pushed open with a bang, and Wang Weiwei followed her mother in, followed by her brother Wang Qiang.

The Queen Mother looked very imposing, and her clothes and pants were all new, except that the leather of her fur shoes had been worn and faded.

Wang Qiang, on the other hand, looked nonchalant, leaning against the door, and was dressed quite well.

Wang Weiwei went back to her parents' home today and specifically asked her family to come and support her.

The Jiang family is quite amazing. Except for Jiang Yanqiu who looked at a few people a few more times, everyone else just ate and drank as if they didn't see anyone coming.

The Queen Mother swaggered over to the table and took a closer look. She saw that there was still meat. She said sourly, "Your relatives are really officials. It's not New Year's Day, and they can still eat meat."

I feel sour on the outside, but I am very excited on the inside!

You know, nowadays a person only has one or two kilograms of meat tickets per month, and they have to save them for cooking. The Jiang family just held a banquet and still has meat. Her family must have good taste!

But this was a beautiful misunderstanding, the meat was leftover from the banquet.

Because Jiang Kaijie was getting married in a few days and didn't like Wang Weiwei, Jiang Anhua and Lu Yunxia didn't invite their friends.

On Jiang Shaojie's wedding day, she didn't invite anyone except her friends, colleagues, and neighbors.

I bought half a side of pork but didn't use it all, and I've been eating the leftover meat these days.

Lu Yunxia slammed her chopsticks on the table and said with a sullen face, "Just tell me what you have to say. Don't talk nonsense. If you really envy our 'good' life, go back to 30 years ago and risk your life to exchange it for yours."

Lu Yunxia was not lying. She was just an ordinary country girl back then. Although Jiang Anhua was born in the city, her situation was even worse than their country people.

Although their lives now are better than others, they were earned at the cost of their lives during the war-torn era.

Isn’t Jiang Anhua’s leg, which was disabled in the war and causes him to limp when he walks, the best proof?

The Queen Mother was obviously choked by Lu Yunxia's words. It took her a while to come back to her senses. She said angrily, "I came to see you today specifically because I wanted to ask you, have you ever seen a family with in-laws who would lock the kitchen door tightly and not even let her eat a hot meal the day after the new daughter-in-law got married?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yunxia immediately retorted, "Well, I'm also asking you this: which family would ask for such an exorbitant dowry as your Wang family does? Three hundred and sixty yuan for a dowry, a job offer, and three transfers and a ring. Do you really think your daughter is worth her all?"

Thinking of the three turns and one ring that was fooled away by the Queen Mother, Lu Yunxia's heart was filled with anger. She couldn't help but mutter, "Also, your old man begged me to tell you about the three turns and one ring. You just borrowed my eldest son to hold up the scene and return it after the wedding. Where have you been?"

Facing Lu Yunxia's questioning, the Queen Mother not only showed no guilt, but also retorted with a convincing argument: "If your family hadn't been unfair, favoring the eldest child, giving him everything and leaving the younger one with nothing, we wouldn't have been forced into such a desperate situation and come up with such a despicable trick, right?"

Hearing the Queen Mother's unreasonable and shameless words, Lu Yunxia was immediately furious and fought back without showing any weakness:

"Even if my family is a little biased, then we have to look at what your daughter is like! A female hooligan, yet she still wants a high bride price. Does she really think she is so popular? If it weren't for some idiots, normal people would throw themselves at her, but she wouldn't want them."

Wang Qiang was standing at the door. When he heard Lu Yunxia belittling his sister like that, his anger suddenly rose up.

He raised his foot and kicked the door fiercely, cursing at the same time: "You damn old woman, keep your mouth shut! If you have the guts, come and curse me again..."

Before Wang Qiang could finish his words, the bowl in Jiang Chaojie's hand flew out with a "whoosh" and hit Wang Qiang squarely in the face.

Then he rushed forward and pounced on Wang Qiang, who fell to the ground.

She cursed, "You little bastard, who are you scolding, old woman? How dare you come to my house and curse and bang on the door? Do you really think we have no one here?"

This operation was so smooth and flowing. Although Wang Qiang was almost 1.8 meters tall and a little fat, he had no power to fight back in front of Jiang Chaojie.

Seeing Jiang Chaojie about to hit someone, Jiang Anhua quickly stopped him and said, "Seventh Brother, if you hurt someone, you have to pay compensation. If you trespass and get sent to the police station, you'll be detained. It's hard to say whether you can keep your newly-minted job."

He originally wanted to beat up Wang Qiang, but it was not worth it for such a scoundrel. He didn't know how he would be blackmailed if he continued to beat him. It would be better to let the police handle it directly.

It is better to offend a gentleman than to offend a villain!

Wang Qiang used to hang out with Wang Weiwei and the others. In their words, they were the troublemakers, actually just a bunch of hooligans. Fighting was commonplace for them, and going to the police station was like visiting relatives.

The Wang family's mother and daughter originally brought Wang Qiang to scare the Jiang family so that the Jiang family would be willing to submit and raise Wang Weiwei as their ancestor for the sake of their reputation.

Who would have thought that a little kid could knock Wang Qiang down.

The Queen Mother was quite capable, but she still feigned composure and shamelessly said, "They say that visitors are guests. We really don't dare to come to a wealthy family like yours. We would beat people up if our in-laws came to our house. We can't afford this marriage. Since this marriage can't be concluded, I will report Jiang Shaojie to the Red Committee as a rapist."

As he said this, he wanted to push Jiang Kaijie away and take Wang Qiang away, but he couldn't push him away at all.
