Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat!-Chapter 314 - 12: The Cannon Fodder Sister-in-Law in the Group Pampering Novel (12)
It’s a different feeling from giving money to my mother.
When he gave money to his mother, he felt it was something he owed the Xie Family, and there was a sense of relief and liberation in his heart.
But when he gave money to Jiang Lai, he truly understood why so many people strive to earn money to marry a wife, to support a wife.
Back then, he couldn’t understand what a man eating bran and swallowing vegetables to buy cloth for his wife at eighty cents a foot was thinking. Now, he understood. This feeling is indescribable; it’s just satisfaction and happiness.
"I’ll make more money for you in the future. The mine is hiring again soon, I’ll go work for a year..."
"Blech! If you make it back alive once from that ghostly place, it’s already not bad! From now on, you’re not allowed to go anywhere, and even if you go somewhere, take me with you. We’re a couple; no matter what, we have to be together."
Listening to her words, Xie Jian felt a heavy weight in his heart. It was the first time someone valued him so much.
With no one around, only mountains and rivers, Xie Jian felt like doing something but didn’t know what to do, so he could only grip Jiang Lai’s waist and keep staring at her.
Jiang Lai sighed.
"Fool."
After saying that, she directly hooked Xie Jian’s neck. Without much effort, she made him bend down completely, and then her red lips pressed directly against his, the hot breath overwhelming him.
"Close your eyes."
Xie Jian was very smart, almost self-taught, moving from initial clumsiness to later finding some tricks and fun. He cupped Jiang Lai’s buttocks and lifted her up so that she was a head taller than him, making it more convenient to kiss.
Xie Jian was tireless, his heart becoming hotter and hotter. He only felt that the Jiang Lai in his arms was light and soft, unwilling to let go in the slightest. In the end, Jiang Lai kicked him and bit him.
"That’s enough. Our home isn’t even settled yet."
Xie Jian was like he had been injected with chicken blood, cleaning up all the weeds in front of and behind the house in the morning. After that, he borrowed a cart to buy bricks from the brick factory, pulling trip after trip by himself and stacking the bricks high at the door, looking very impressive.
Nowadays, people build houses with mud bricks, poured layer by layer with yellow mud, finally using sorghum stalks to suspend the roof with old newspapers plastered on, and then using mud bricks to make a kang inside, with an outdoor stove platform, and finally hiring a carpenter to make doors and windows, and a room would be made.
But this time, Xie Jian directly bought bricks, using bricks instead of yellow mud to build a house, which in the village, other than the village chief and a few wealthy families, no one would choose the expensive bricks.
Bricks costing two cents each, an ordinary room needing four or five thousand bricks, just buying bricks would cost nearly a hundred. So when the villagers saw Xie Jian pulling cart after cart of bricks they were incredibly curious, each one assuming that the Xie Family was going to build a brick house again.
"Tsk tsk tsk, this Xie the Third really has some strength, being able to haul back three to four hundred bricks by himself. I really don’t understand how the Xie Family raised such a capable son."
"Didn’t they just build a brick house last year? And now they have money for a new one? They’re truly wealthy."
When the last cart of bricks was hauled back, it was just as the villagers were coming back from the fields. Quite a few young lads who had grown up together gathered to watch the excitement.
"Buying so many bricks to build a house? Is your family going to build a brick house again?"
Xie Jian pulled bit by bit, and his voice was surprisingly stable and firm.
"Yeah."
"Your mom’s building it?"
Xie Jian: "I’m building it."
"You’re building it? Your mom agreed? That’s a lot of money!"
Xie Jian looked up at them, feeling it was necessary to make things clear right now.
"I’ve separated from the family and plan to build a house myself. I need some help now, and I’ll pay anyone who is willing to come a yuan a day and provide meals."
A yuan!
Working hard in the fields all day during labor only earned ten work points, barely enough to get fifty cents.
Xie Jian was directly offering a yuan, and provided meals too!
"I’ll go!! Jian, I just helped build a house for someone, I’ll go!"
"I’ll go too, Jian, I can do anything!"
"Jian, Jian, count me in too!"
Everyone was enthusiastic, after all, where could one find such a good job that pays a yuan a day.
Xie Jian looked around and finally chose five dependable and hardworking ones. One of them was Lv Cuiping’s nephew, Lv Gui, but Xie Jian didn’t take him. Lv Gui was upset and directly went to find Lv Cuiping, figuring it was the Xie Family building the house, so in the end, Lv Cuiping would surely have the final say.
At this time, Lv Cuiping had just returned home, and Xie Yumian pulled her secretly into the kitchen, then opened the kitchen water jar.
"Mom, look."
Lv Cuiping looked down and her eyes lit up instantly, there was a big carp inside, looking fresh and plump.
But it wasn’t the first time such a thing had happened, so Lv Cuiping remained calm, directly covering the water jar and quietly asking.
"Picked it up by the river again?"
"I went to try my luck, this fish wasn’t moving by the river, so I brought it back wrapped in wheat straw."
"My daughter is really a lucky star! Keep the fish for a couple of days, and when your eldest sister-in-law goes to town with your second sister-in-law, mom will stew it for you when nobody’s home!"
Xie Yumian smiled helplessly and said.
"It’s just a fish, let’s share it with everyone. Anyway, if I want to eat more, I’ll go find some again."
Listening to this, Lv Cuiping shook her head repeatedly, coaxing her.
"You silly girl, you don’t know, once those with a craving in the family get used to the taste, what if they start fighting you for food, like Jiang Lai? From now on, such things will be for you to eat first; any leftovers can be kept for another meal, those people don’t deserve it."
Xie Yumian hugged Lv Cuiping’s arm with a smile.
"Mom, you’re really good to me, in our family, you still love me the most."
"If I don’t love you, who else will? Rest assured, as long as I’m around in this family, you can do whatever you want. After the busy season is over, you continue your studies. As long as mom has money, you can study as long as you want."
After the mother and daughter finished chatting and walked out, the cries of Gou Dan could be heard again in the house.
"What’s going on again! Can’t you let me have some peace for a moment!"
Liu Suping carefully said while pulling Gou Dan.
"Gou Dan picked up a candy wrapper on the ground today, and he’s throwing a tantrum for some candy."
"Eat, eat, eat! All you know is eat! Where in the house is there candy for you to eat? Keep crying, and you won’t have dinner tonight!"
Liu Suping was smiling on the outside but cursing on the inside.
If there wasn’t any candy in the house, where did the candy wrapper come from?
Where’s the candy? It’s obvious that it’s all in the hands of her precious little sister-in-law, Xie Yumian. Until she’s had enough, how could it possibly reach the kids down the line.
She knew the truth but didn’t dare say anything, because in this family, the most untouchable person was her sister-in-law, Xie Yumian. Otherwise, she wouldn’t even have to wait for her mother-in-law to act up; her husband, who adored his sister more than his son, would lose his temper first.
"Aunt! Aunt!"
Lv Gui stumbled and struggled his way to the Xie Family, Lv Cuiping was just about to scold her grandson for being unruly when she heard Lv Gui shouting loudly from behind.
"Why isn’t your family asking my dad for help with building the brick house!"
Lv Cuiping looked puzzled.
"What do you mean by building a brick house? Who told you my family is building a brick house?"
