Chapter 1335 The short-lived cousin of the heroine of the Ten Thousand Yuan Household (16)
Xu Yin returned to the dormitory after get off work. Before she even entered the room, she was stopped by housewives sitting on the patio knitting sweaters and chatting:
"Xiao Xu! Go and see the vegetable patch you have behind the house."
“What’s wrong?” Xu Yin asked. In fact, I know it well.
One of the aunts said quickly: "That old Zhu's wife, she usually likes to take advantage of small things, but she just picks the land and vegetables that you worked so hard to cultivate, and she just picks them with a basket. Even if she picks them, she still gets stepped on." It’s rotten a lot, what a sin!”
"Xiao Xu, Lao Zhu's family has picked vegetables in your vegetable patch many times, and every time they have a whole basket. If they can't finish it, they secretly sell it. I told her how her family's food has improved a lot recently. She brought fish and shrimps for two days in a row, and I saw her bring back a piece of meat this morning..."
Xu Yin: “…”
This seems to be a bit exaggerated. The few baskets of vegetables she lost could not be exchanged for a meal of seafood and meat no matter how expensive they were.
This year is not like the future - ecological and organic vegetables can still be sold more expensive than meat.
But Lao Zhu’s wife overturned her car, which she liked to see.
Xu Yin showed off her acting skills as a movie queen and played the role of a little white flower: "Huh? I thought it was wild cats and dogs running wild in my vegetable field, but I never expected that it was human beings... She just picked the vegetables. Why did she have to pick the vegetables?" Trampled to pieces, I also paid for the seeds, eh eh eh…”
Everyone hurriedly comforted:
“Don’t worry, Xiao Xu, the Women’s Federation will make the decision for you. What Lao Zhu’s wife did this time is indeed too much!”
“She’s always taking advantage of others.”
"In my opinion, she not only took advantage of Xiao Xu this time, but also had revenge. Have you forgotten? The day Xiao Xu first moved in, she wanted to take advantage of Xiao Xu but failed. She probably had a grudge, otherwise she would pick vegetables Just picking vegetables, why trample them to pieces? The food is being wasted and the sky is thundering!"
“This old Zhu’s wife! She is so small-minded!”
“If it were my vegetable plot, she would treat her like this, and even the compensation would not be enough to relieve my anger.”
“Speaking of losing money, given how stingy Lao Zhu’s wife is, will she be willing to do it?”
“You have to pay even if you don’t want to!”
Xu Yin thanked everyone gratefully, then ran back to the back of the bungalow, cut off all the ripe cabbages, and divided them into small bundles per person:
"Aunts, if it weren't for you, I would still be kept in the dark. I don't even say thank you for your kindness, and I wouldn't be able to give you any valuable gifts to add food to the evening. In fact, I grow so much. I felt that weeds would easily grow on the land, so I opened it all to grow vegetables. How could I eat so much on my own? If the aunts wanted to eat, just pick them. Don’t be like...cough, I believe the aunts are like me. They are all good people who cherish food and avoid wasting it!"
A good guy card was handed out, and he received countless looks of relief and approval.
“Xiao Xu, don’t worry, we will look after the vegetable patch for you when you are not at home.”
“That’s right, we’ll knit sweaters on the patio if we have nothing to do. I’ll keep an eye out for you when the time comes.”
“Actually, it’s just Lao Zhu’s wife who likes to make small moves and take advantage of her. The other people in our building are pretty good.”
Xu Yin smiled and nodded: "I believe in the aunts!"
From this day on, there was another group of housewives who took it upon themselves to guard Xu Yin's vegetable garden.
With their surveillance, even if there was a second Lao Zhu’s wife in the building, she would not dare to steal food in full view of everyone. What's more, there are only a few people like Lao Zhu's wife who love to take advantage and are vindictive.
I don’t know who complained to the Women’s Federation. The Women’s Federation intervened in the incident, severely criticized Lao Zhu’s wife’s bad behavior, and asked her to compensate Comrade Xu Yin for her losses.
Three baskets of cabbage plus the vegetables she trampled in the field cost her six yuan.
I didn’t take advantage of it, so I spent more than 25 yuan in total, so I paid a lot of money!
Seeing that other unemployed housewives all received the small Tang vegetables that Xu Yin delivered to their door, she was the only one who didn't, and she became even more angry. She wanted to rush to the vegetable field and trample all the vegetables to pieces.
But Lao Zhu warned her, saying that the Women's Federation was still watching and told her not to cause trouble again, otherwise he might lose his role as a model worker this year.
Model worker in trouble? What he lost was not only his honor, but also an extra bonus.
Lao Zhu’s wife has become much more honest now.
Xu Yin waited for the Chinese cabbage and Chinese cabbage to start growing, then loosened the soil, plowed it in the sun for two days, then watered it thoroughly, and planted spring corn, which can be used as both a staple food and a snack.
Then we have two days off in May.
She carried her small bundle and caught the first tram home.
For two days in a row, Wang Zhao didn't buy any stir-fried or steamed vegetables made by Xu Yin. He watched as his Brother Rui started to eat millet porridge again. He couldn't even take a few bites of Master Hong's specialty white steamed buns. It was obvious that he That cunning appetite was brought back. It is really easy to go from frugality to luxury, but hard to go from luxury to frugality!
"Brother Rui, I found out that Master Xu didn't quit his job. He took the past two days off and went home. Her family is from the county below. She was too busy to go back and forth on the same day, so the hotel agreed to let her take two days off for half a month. .I’ll be back tomorrow evening.”
Rui Xijin lay lazily on the rocking chair, feeling the warm evening breeze in early summer. She said "hmm" with a nasal voice, and then asked: "When will we dig people to come to Ruifu Tower?"
"I'm trying."
How dare Wang Zhao say that he almost screwed up.
If he hadn't tried his best to stop her, his family's overly enthusiastic seven aunts and eight aunts would have gone to Master Xu to propose marriage with a festive door-to-door gift.
I dare not say that I am talking about Brother Rui’s marriage.
It’s really going to cost him his life!
Rui Xijin snorted softly: "I think you are quite idle, but I don't see how hard you work."
“…” Wang Zhao choked, thinking that I was tired!
“Brother Rui, don’t worry. When Master Xu comes back, I will go find her and try to persuade her to come to Ruifu Tower.”
“Find a way? So you haven’t figured out a way yet?”
…”
Think about it! Isn’t that a waste of time?
"Well, the method I thought of before didn't work very well. I think Master Xu doesn't have any requirements for salary or accommodation, and he is quite a happy-go-lucky person. The more people like this, the harder it is to find them."
Hearing this, Rui Xijin was silent for a long time, and then slowly said: "Tell him, except Ruifu House, give him everything else he wants. Including the returned house."
Wang Zhao was extremely shocked: "That house, Uncle Rui said it was for you to get a wife! Brother Rui, do you think it was damaged too much and you don't like it? Then don't give it away! No matter the location or the orientation of the house, it is... It's not bad. If you think it's shabby, I'll find someone to repair it after you take it back..."
