Chapter 1616: In-laws' Conspiracy 28
Yuanchun's hands trembled, and a bag of fish food was spilled into the pond. "Where did they meet?"
"Hahaha, wasn't Mr. Lu hypnotized by you? His mind was a little groggy, and he accidentally bumped into Gong Hongyan with his bicycle."
Gong Hongyan is her future sister-in-law.
"So, my third brother is going to start acting like a little lickspittle."
"Hahaha, yes, he fell in love with Gong Hongyan at first sight and insisted on taking her to the hospital for a check-up. After the doctor said she was fine, he shamelessly said he wanted to apologize and treat her to a meal. Right now, the two of them are eating pork belly stewed with sauerkraut and blood sausage in a small restaurant."
"It seems that I will soon have a third sister-in-law to call me."
Yuanchun took out a handful of water plants and threw them into the pond. A group of big fish swam over and pecked at the plants.
For the next three months, Yuanchun did not see Lu Laosan again.
In mid-November, the first heavy snow fell in Liao Province. On that day, Lu Laosan proposed to Gong Hongyan's family. The amount of betrothal money was the same as that of Lu Dasao and Lu Sansao, which was 380 yuan.
Mother Lu hadn't saved enough money, so she came to borrow a hundred yuan from Yuanchun.
Yuanchun cried poor, "Mom, my mother-in-law and Aqiu are both unemployed, and I have to support the whole family with my salary alone, so how can I lend you the money?"
"You stupid girl, your third brother is just short of a hundred dollars for his wedding, and you won't even help with this little favor."
"Mom, it's not that I don't want to help, I just can't afford it."
"Then lend me two months' salary in advance."
"Mom, I'm going to get two months' salary in advance. Then I won't get any salary. What will my family eat and drink? Mom, can you ask Dad to get an advance on his salary?"
"Your father's salary has been advanced. Your whole family will be starving next month."
You see, Mother Lu knows it very well.
The salary advance has been paid, and if we don’t get paid for the next two months, the whole family will be left with nothing.
She couldn't bear to see the Lu family suffer, so she forced her and her husband's family to suffer. In Lu's mother's eyes, there was only her son, and she didn't care about her life or death.
In the final analysis, it is about favoring boys over girls.
But why should she suffer this injustice?
Yuanchun refused to take an advance on her salary.
Lu's mother stood at the door of the bank and cursed her, calling her unfilial and having no brotherly love. Yuanchun was worried about the impact on the bank's affairs, so she released her mental power to seal her throat so that she could not curse at all.
Lu's mother thought she had touched something dirty, looked around in fear, and ran away.
Later, Lu's mother asked Lu's father to advance one month's salary from the factory, and Lu Laosan, just like in his previous life, borrowed 800 yuan from his friends and bought a small yard.
On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, Lu Laosan got married. The wedding banquet was held in the small courtyard that Lu Laosan had just bought. The Lu family invited a chef from a state-owned restaurant to cook. The tables, chairs, chopsticks, bowls, and bowls were all brought from home by Lu Laosan's friends.
There were six tables in total.
Yuanchun took Zheng Qiu to the wedding, gave ten yuan as a gift, and also gave a pair of red Double Happiness mandarin duck thermos as a gift.
Yuanchun knew that all the gift money collected at today's wedding banquet would be taken away by Lu's mother and would not be given to Lu Sansao, but the gifts received would be kept by Lu Sansao.
When Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Lu got married, Mrs. Lu did the same thing.
Lu Laosan has many cronies, and they seemed to know the Lu family's rule. They didn't bring any gifts, just gifts.
Each person's gift is about ten yuan.
In this day and age, ten dollars can buy a lot of things.
A big teacup costs a few cents each.
Big porcelain basin, two dollars each.
Thermos bottle, six or seven yuan each.
Bright red pillowcases, 1.5 yuan a pair.
