MTL - There is Room For Abandoned Women In the 1980s-Chapter 171 How to live happily
Chapter 171 How to live happily
“Mom, you are back.”
When Zheng Xinyue heard Gao Guilan's voice, the tension in her heart immediately disappeared, and she happily ran to open the door.
Gao Guilan was carrying a backpack, her face was dark red from the sun, sweat was flowing down her cheeks, the front of her clothes was soaked with sweat, but her face was filled with joy.
“Xinyue, it turns out you are at home! Mom thought it was your sister-in-law who came back to steal things while I was away!”
ˆ “.”
Zheng Xinyue’s face is full of black lines, and her sister-in-law must dare to steal. Who doesn’t know that the old lady is shrewd? It was clear at a glance what was missing at home, and she even counted the eggs that the chickens had not laid. Who would dare to steal things without fear of death?
“Mom, come in and take a shower, are you too hot?”
Zheng Xinyue reached out to help her mother catch the basket on her back. How hard was it to carry dozens of kilograms of fish to the county?
“Xinyue, come in quickly, don’t let the sun tan your face.”
Gao Guilan was reluctant to let her daughter help, so she pushed her away into the house. She squatted down and put the basket on the ground, and poured things out of the basket.
He held a small paper bag mysteriously, smiled like a bright wild chrysanthemum at his daughter, and said excitedly:
“Look, what did mom buy you?”
Looking at her mother's joyful face, as if she was holding a priceless treasure in her hand, Zheng Xinyue's curiosity was aroused, she took the paper bag and opened it eagerly.
A pair of suede-covered purple-red floral slanted shoes appeared in front of her. Gao Guilan came over with a smile, looked into her daughter's eyes and asked:
"Do you like it? Mom saw it and thought it would look good on you."
She was waiting expectantly to see her daughter's surprise. She walked all the way thinking about her daughter's joy when she saw the shoes. She didn't feel uncomfortable and rushed back without stopping. She also thought about going to the fields to give them to her! I didn't expect her to be at home.
"Mom, how expensive are these? I still have shoes on my feet. Besides, I'm a divorced woman and can't wear such fresh clothes. The children's shoes are too small. Why not give them some uppers so that they can wear more shoes? A few pairs.”
Zheng Xinyue was very touched but didn't want it. In this era, it was very expensive to buy ready-made shoes, so she usually bought the uppers and made her own shoes. The black cloth shoes she wore were made for her by her sister-in-law, and they were worn by several children. They are open-toe cloth shoes. The soles are worn out and I don’t have the money to replace them with new ones!
“What are you doing for them? The little kid still wears new shoes? Who said that divorced women have to be disgraced? Let’s dress up brightly and let them envy us!”
Gao Guilan curled her lips. She was not used to her grandchildren. As for outsiders gossiping, that was what she was least afraid of in her life. In her opinion, others gossiping about you means they are jealous of you. What she likes most is that you can't stand me but you take advantage of me. I can't help it, I'll **** you off.
“Mom, let me get you some water to wash your face.”
Zheng Xinyue blinked, envious of her mother's arrogant attitude towards life. Why live in the shadow of others? Live as happy as you can.
"Xinyue, mom bought you cakes and put them in the cabinet in your house. You can take them out to eat when you are hungry at night. There is also mung bean cake, which is a good thing. Without your uncle, you can't buy it. If you eat it every day, you will suffer from heat stroke. The package of spiced peanuts was given to you by your uncle, and it is delicious. This package is made of brown sugar, so if you have a stomachache, it will not hurt if you drink it."
Gao Guilan took things out one after another, her face always happy. The few things her mother took out were all for her, and even her father didn't get a share.
“Mom, have you eaten?”
Zheng Xinyue's eyes were red with emotion. She didn't look at the good things and asked in a low voice.
