Chapter 423 Mother, I don’t have meat for the banquet
The Zhou family was furious when they received Shen Xue's telegram. Mother Zhou was very angry.
He had never said a vulgar word before, but this time he was so angry that he cursed.
"How dare Shen Xue say this when she asked us to send money for the wedding banquet?
When she left, she stole so much money from me. Now she has no money left, but she still has the nerve to ask us for more.
Bah, I have money to give to the street thugs, but I won’t give it to them, shameless bastards.”
Mrs. Zhou didn't want to give it to him either. Shen Xue had only been to her house once, and she already knew who this person was.
Just like her mother-in-law said, Shen Xue is shameless. If she doesn't give it to me,
She would really bring a man and children to the house, making a mess of it, and maybe even saying nonsense.
"Mom, we have to give this money, otherwise what should we do if Shen Xuezhen comes to our house?"
Their home is right here, and they can't move to another house, so Shen Xue can come anytime she wants.
Their registered permanent residence is in the countryside, so they cannot live at home for long periods of time. However, they occasionally come to stay at home for ten days or half a month, which makes their home no longer a family.
"Mom, just give it to me." The second and third sisters-in-law also said so.
Anyway, my mother-in-law has a salary and she is the one who pays.
How could Zhou's mother not know what her daughters-in-law were thinking? It's like they don't feel the pain unless they are fleeced.
Shen Xue is a crazy person and she can't control her. But can she not control the three daughters-in-law in the family?
"If you say you will give, then give. Your family has to give one hundred." Shen Xue asked for three hundred right away. This was what made Zhou's mother most angry.
This is three hundred. In the countryside, those country bumpkins may not even have three hundred in their entire life. Zhou's mother knows how difficult life is in the countryside.
The mother-in-law asked her three daughters-in-law to take out one hundred yuan each. That was really enough to kill them.
The eldest, second, and third sisters-in-law of Zhou immediately changed their tone, "Mom, Shen Xue is nothing, they are in the countryside, there is plenty of food,
Not only did she not say she would send you food to honor you, she also asked you for money. This time she asked for three hundred, and I don’t know how much she will ask for next time. You can’t give her this money.”
Shen Xue waited at home for a week, but did not receive any letter from her parents-in-law, so she sent another telegram.
She told them that if they didn't send the money, she and Zhou Jingchen would take the child back in two days and hold a wedding banquet in Kyoto.
Come to Kyoto to hold a wedding banquet, are you kidding? Wouldn’t that mean everyone will know that they have a country daughter-in-law? If they hold a wedding banquet, it means that the daughter-in-law is a sure thing.
If no one knew that they were holding a wedding banquet, they could still say that Shen Xue was shamelessly pestering their son in the countryside, and it didn't matter whether their daughter-in-law admitted it or not.
But if the banquet was held in Kyoto, they would have no choice but to admit it.
Since they didn't want them to come, they could only send money checks. Four days later, Shen Xue finally received the money check, but it was only for one hundred yuan.
There was only a hundred yuan, so Shen Xue calmed down. She could only spend twenty or thirty yuan to hold a banquet, and she would still have some left over.
Zhou Jingchen didn't know that she asked his family for money again. Two days later,
It was only when he received a letter from home that he realized that the woman had asked his family for money again.
"Xiaoxue, why are you asking my parents for money again? Do you know that my parents have no money?
Although they have a salary, it is not enough for them to eat. If you ask them for so much money, how can they live? "
Asking his family for money was easier than asking him for it himself. Zhou Jingchen was so angry that he laughed.
If she gave him the money, Zhou Jingchen would not say anything. The important thing was that she didn't give him a penny. If he hadn't received the letter from home, he would still be in the dark.
His parents didn't like him very much in the first place, and Shen Xue asked them for money again and again, or more precisely, threatened them.
This forced his parents to send money to her, which made his parents hate him more and more.
His relationship with his family is so tense. If he can return to the city in the future, will his parents still be willing to take care of him? Obviously, that is impossible.
"Why are you shouting so loudly? Are you trying to make yourself sound louder?
You said your parents are my parents, right? What's wrong with asking my parents to send money to me to hold a wedding banquet?"
We are all family, so why should we be so polite?
"Jingchen, you are just too sensible. You don't want to trouble your family with anything. That's why your parents don't value you.
Look at me, if I have any problem, I tell my parents, and they send me money.”
Shen Xue had some money and began to buy meat and food for the banquet.
She didn't have an elder to help her, so she had to do everything by herself, which really exhausted Shen Xue.
She wanted to hold a grand banquet so that everyone would envy her, and meat was indispensable.
She now has the ticket, but she can't buy meat. A pound and a half of meat is not enough. Shen Xue has no choice but to come to her mother.
"Mom, I don't have any meat for the banquet. Please help me think of a solution."
Liu Pandi mentioned the wedding banquet just to make them quarrel, but she didn't expect that she would really hold a wedding banquet. "Xue, are you really going to hold a wedding banquet?"
"Yes, my parents-in-law sent me the money. Mother, I want to have a grand wedding banquet this time."
This girl has money, and Liu Pandi plans to make some money. "Okay, since you've asked, Aunt Liu will naturally help with the matter of my niece from the same village."
"Mom, can you really get some meat?"
"Aunt Liu is a very prestigious person. It's just a matter of two sentences. But you also know that meat is in short supply, so the price is definitely not going to be cheap."
"It's okay if it's a little more expensive. I have money and tickets."
"It's twice as expensive as the butcher's stall. Can you accept that?"
Shen Xue didn't expect it to be so expensive. She let out a long sigh, "Expensive... twice as expensive?"
"Well, if you think it's too expensive, you don't have to buy meat. Life is not easy anyway. There are wild vegetables on the banquet, and no one will laugh at you."
Shen Xue immediately said, "Buy it. It doesn't matter if it's twice as expensive. Mom, buy me 20 kilograms."
"Okay, give the money to Aunt Liu."
Uncle Shen had a colleague in the factory whose cousin worked in a meat processing factory and specialized in selling meat. Liu Pandi came to the factory to find Uncle Shen that day.
"It costs 20 kilograms of meat. Shen Xue wants to hold a banquet. I have received the money, so I have to get it done for her."
Liu Pandi whispered to her husband how much money she received from Shen Xue. Uncle Shen's mouth twitched, "Come back in the afternoon, I'll go back and talk to my colleagues."
In the afternoon, Liu Pandi came to get the meat and carried twenty kilograms of meat to Shen Xue.
Shen Xue regretted giving the money to her mother. She was afraid that her mother would not be able to get the meat and would not return the money to her. After all, her mother seemed unreliable.
"Liu Shen has brought you the meat you requested. In order to get the meat for you, Aunt Liu's shoes were even broken.
I even had a fight with someone. Look, I've lost a bunch of hair.
But don't feel bad for Aunt Liu. Aunt Liu hopes you'll be well. As long as you can hold a grand wedding banquet,
It doesn't matter if Aunt Liu feels a little wronged, because you are my niece from the same village."
Shen Xue carried the meat back home, but she only brought back 15 kilograms of meat.
