Diary of a masseuse

Chapter 19 Diary 9

In February 201X, the weather was fine.

Go home for the New Year ([-]).

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, we visited each other to pay New Year's greetings.Although my family has been thin since my grandfather, there are still quite a few relatives in a village who have not produced five clothes.A few plates of dried fruit and candy snacks were packed out at home, and grandpa was in charge; Ye Zi and I were juniors, and we used to follow my father and the others, but now I go to New Year's greetings with my neighbor, the third brother, and several brothers of the same generation.Baskets of auspicious words were spoken, and finally a large bag of candy peanuts was brought back.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the three sisters took their husbands and children back to their natal home to celebrate the New Year.Grandpa wrapped red envelopes for several great-grandchildren, and chatted with several brother-in-laws in the living room.I am busy in the kitchen as the chef today, and my three sisters are also helping here.Stewing fish soup, I was pulled aside by the eldest sister, the second sister also stood aside, and the third sister was peeling garlic at the door, looking like a watchdog.I was a little amused, and I probably understood what they were going to say: "Sister, are you three trials?"

The eldest sister patted me feigned anger, and said seriously: "Xiao Feng, you see that Ye Zi's illness is almost cured, have you quit your job in the capital? Anyway, you also have crafts, so let's open a small shop at home and do it yourself." It’s the same, it’s convenient.” I twitched the corners of my mouth: “Why do you say this suddenly, you can’t just resign at work.” I can’t tell what I think in my heart, but fortunately I don’t have much right to choose. "Tell the truth to my sister, you, what do you do with that job?" The elder sister was a little anxious, and grabbed my arm.

I was helpless, and asked with a smile: "Is there someone in the village gossiping?" "They dare!" "Ernan!" The eldest sister glared at the second sister, then turned to look at me: "People in the village only know that you earn money to treat Ye Zi's illness outside without holidays, and they all praise you." "That's right, the money is my hard work." Earn it, sister, what are you worried about." I wanted to turn around and cook, but I couldn't tell the truth, but if I grew up together, if I lied to my third sister, it would be obvious right away.

The eldest sister grabbed me: "Others don't know, don't we know?! Ye Zi's illness cost more than 70 yuan, and our three families didn't help at all, and grandpa didn't have much money. Now college students It’s not easy to find a job, where do you, a college dropout, earn so much money?” The eldest sister’s eyes are red: “Tell me the truth, are you dating someone…what?” Yes, but it definitely can’t be compared with Say it. "Sister, where are you going?!" I raised the corner of my mouth, "If I can sell more than 70 yuan, I will sell it sooner."

"How do you talk?!" The second sister was not happy: "A handsome young man like you is not worth 70 yuan?!" "Second girl! How are you talking?!" The eldest sister was angry.The second sister pursed her lips and glared at me. I couldn't help being happy, and the second brother-in-law was also having a hard time.

"Then where did you get the money from?" The elder sister changed the topic again, she was the worst to be fooled. "I signed a contract." I smiled wryly, and looked at the three sisters who were somewhat puzzled: "It was signed for 20 years. Part of the money for the leaf surgery is the salary advance." This is true, although only part of it.It is much easier for the younger brother to sign a 20-year work contract than for the younger brother to be pressured by a man, although it is somewhat unbearable to see the elder sister and the others at this level.

"This, this is too bullying!" The second sister also had red eyes.

"It's not that bad." I stretched out my hand to grab the towel, which made the two sisters cry in a short while. "As you can see, the work is not tiring, and the wages and benefits are quite good. Now, now this place is also given a holiday. Think about it, after working there for 20 years, I might be a local rich man."

"How old are you in 20 years?!" The third sister exclaimed in a low voice, "Then can you still get married?! No, you can put your little nephew under your name?"

"What are you talking about?! Xiaofeng is only 20 even if he has been here for [-] years, and some big girls are rushing to ask for it! There is no need for you to be a big tail wolf here!" The second sister stared wide-eyed and almost pointed at the third Sister's nose scolded. "Second sister and second sister, don't say a few words, the third sister is also kind, you calm down. I'm not fooling you, women get old quickly!" I pulled the second sister to sit down.

There are three elder sisters in the family, the elder sister is shrewd and capable, the second sister is straightforward and hot, and the third sister is somewhat calculating.In fact, it can't all be blamed on the third sister.In rural areas, boys are preferred to girls. It’s okay for the eldest sister and the second sister to be born first, but the third sister is a girl, so the parents don’t like it. In addition, the mother hurt her body when the third sister was born, and it took several years to give birth. Me, no, the child I replaced failed to give birth in the end, and it took another ten years to give birth to the leaf.The third sister's status in the family is a bit unfair. When she got married, the family's financial situation was a bit embarrassing due to the fines for extra births. Her dowry was not as much as the previous two sisters. The third sister's husband's family was not too good. She gave birth to another child had two twin sons.Life is tight, so I always calculate and calculate.The third sister is not bad-hearted, and she gave money several times despite her in-laws' eyes when something happened at home.Speaking of which, if the family hadn't raised me, the situation of the third sister might have been better.

"Did she curse her brother like that?!" The second sister was still angry.The third sister pursed her lips, lowered her head and her eyes were red.I was a little dizzy, so I hurriedly comforted: "Third sister, it's all right." I looked at the eldest sister eagerly.

"Okay. It's your fault about the third daughter, and you should say less about the second daughter." The three of us grew up with the elder sister, and the eldest sister spoke up, and she was honest at once: "The family doesn't need Xiaofeng's matter." I'm not telling you, Sannan, I'm not talking about you. My mother-in-law persuaded me to mention this matter to you because your elder brother-in-law was so honest. I'm afraid your husband's family also has the same intentions, so you can tell everyone Knowing that this money is Xiaofeng’s hard-working money, don’t think about it.”

"Sister, as long as you know about this matter, Ye Zi has to hide it. That kid is so heartbroken that his body just can't stand the toss. I still have tens of thousands in my hand, and I don't need it. You can use it first if you have something to do at home." , otherwise it would be cheaper for the bank." I spoke from the side.My sister's words made me feel a little guilty.The Li family has supported me wholeheartedly for 18 years, and I should have been attached to it for 20 years, not to mention that I am really not short of money now.

"What do you know! You will be almost forty when you come out. If you don't save a lot of money, do you think there is a good girl in that family who is willing to be with you?!" The eldest sister stopped me directly.I couldn't laugh or cry: "My eldest sister, there are still more than ten years, and you are looking too far away." Good girl, I don't need it anymore, and even if I give you all the money, I will have nothing left. Mr. Ye's dismissal Fees are enough for my whole life.

In the end, I couldn't make the eldest sister change her mind.She is doing it for my own good. After all, once an opening like borrowing money is opened, it is hard to close.I decided to secretly give the money to my grandpa. The family of my three sisters is not rich, so I should subsidize it.Grandpa is highly respected, and no one can say anything if the money is scattered from him.

The matter of hiding from Ye Zi was unanimously passed, although Ye Zi's intelligence can't hide it for a few years, but as long as these few years pass, it will be a good incentive to know the specific situation when he is older and sensible.

It took a lot of hard work to eat a meal: the three brothers-in-law poured wine for my adult brother-in-law according to the custom, and I could only push left and right in embarrassment at the level of pouring a glass; The fart boy was not strong enough to fight and was directly suppressed. In the end, it was grandpa who rescued me from the sea of ​​suffering.

Although it is not easy to directly subsidize the three sisters' homes, the annual gifts can be added. I have ordered a lot of various nutritional supplements, and taking them back to look good can also make the three sisters look good in the parents-in-law.It’s just that there was a small problem in the end. I put a few longevity locks on a few little nephews. It’s just that the elder sister’s family has a boy and a girl, and the third sister’s family has twins. They all have two children, and the second sister’s family has only one boy.The second brother-in-law's face is not very good-looking, each person has a long-life lock made according to the head, and the second sister's family suffers from a household perspective.I was a little embarrassed and didn't expect this situation at all.Fortunately, the second sister has a higher status in her family. She took the box and snorted, and poked my head. This matter is considered to be over.
