All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era
Chapter 528 529 Lin Zhixi’s grievance
Lin Zhixi finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the family was in harmony.
One of the four pieces of fabric is in men's size, and three are in women's size. This arrangement was not her idea, but Yue Wenxuan's decision.
She originally disagreed with this arrangement. Wouldn't this create conflict between her two brothers? Based on her understanding of her eldest brother and second sister-in-law, they would definitely compete for that piece of men's fabric.
In the end, it was Yue Wenxuan who convinced her, because Yue Wenxuan gave her the assurance that if the two of them really couldn't give in, then it would just be a matter of replacing one piece, since they still had it at home anyway.
Yue Wenxuan had just gotten married, and he had only heard a little bit about the family's character from Lin Zhixi, so he didn't know much about it, so he could use such a small incident to test it out.
After all, these people are his wife's relatives, and they will inevitably have to deal with them frequently in the future, so he must have a mental map of how he should treat these people.
Today's test results were not bad. Not only Lin Zhixi was very satisfied, but Yue Wenxuan himself was also very satisfied.
There are two key people in this family, one is Lin Zhixi's eldest brother, and the other is her second sister-in-law.
Relatively speaking, the second sister-in-law is better. Her criticism is mainly directed at her eldest brother. As long as the matter has nothing to do with the elder brother, in everyone's impression, she is also a person who is willing to give in.
The image of the eldest brother Lin Zhiwen in Yue Wenxuan's mind is really bad, mainly because he is quite selfish, and secondly because he is a bit hypocritical and vain.
Fortunately, he has a wife whom everyone praises. It is the existence of such a person that can keep the Lin family in harmony on the surface.
Yue Wenxuan does not despise Lin Zhiwen's selfishness, hypocrisy and vanity. For him, this is just a minor problem. A little leakage between his fingers is enough to satisfy him. What he is afraid of is that some people have great ambitions and unsatisfied desires, so he needs to be vigilant.
Fortunately, what he was most worried about did not appear. These relatives of his wife did not have too high requirements for life, let alone any lofty ambitions. As long as their lives were better than those around them, it was enough to satisfy them.
This kind of family atmosphere is already Yue Wenxuan's ideal state, and he will not have higher requirements.
Don’t be afraid of minor disputes and conflicts. This is something that every family cannot avoid. As long as these disputes and conflicts do not happen to him, then he is a good relative in everyone's mind.
The tea leaves that Yue Wenxuan brought only made everyone happy a little bit, but the pieces of cloth he brought were enough to make everyone excited.
Because they were so happy today, several men in the family had a few too many drinks while accompanying Yue Wenxuan. The three people's drinking capacity is not big. When they are excited, they may be able to perform a little more than usual. However, there is always a limit to this extraordinary performance. Obviously, this limit has been exceeded today. By the time Yue Wenxuan leaves, the three of them have already Lying in bed and unable to get up.
Today Yue Wenxuan was toasted repeatedly, and he drank at least six ounces of wine, but he still acted like a normal person, not drunk at all. With the help of several women at home, he safely got on the bicycle.
Seeing that Yue Wenxuan was riding very smoothly, and it really didn't look like anything was wrong, the few people seeing him off were really relieved.
After returning home, the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law hurried to work. The only people left at home, except for the three drunkards on the bed, were mother and daughter Chen Yufeng and Lin Zhihui.
Lin Zhihui's workplace is close, so she's not in a hurry to leave, as she can spend more time talking to her mother.
Chen Yufeng did have something on her mind that she wanted to talk to, and her eldest daughter was obviously the most suitable candidate. She sighed and said with a sad look on her face:
"I have always been worried that Zhixi will not have a good life after getting married, and seeing these things she brought today, I am even more worried.
It’s also my fault that she hasn’t suffered any hardship since she was a child.
After your father passed away, she already had a sense of urgency and knew how difficult the world was, but I doted on her too much and felt that she lost her father at a young age, so I should compensate her more in life.
Our family's financial situation is a little better than that of ordinary families. It's not wrong that this child has a kind personality, but it is a problem to help others without knowing the right amount.
She had this tendency when she was in school, but I never took it seriously. Now that you are married, if you still can't correct this problem, you will definitely be disliked by your mother-in-law.
When she returns to her parents' home next time, you can also help me to persuade her. She must never take things from home and give them away like today. If she keeps doing this, no matter how high their salary is, they will not be able to live well. good. "
“It’s really a bit too generous!
I did some calculations and found that all the door-to-door gifts I brought today cost almost eight hundred yuan. Such a large amount of money is enough for an ordinary person to marry two daughters-in-law in a prosperous family.
Even if this was a homecoming gift prepared by her mother-in-law, she couldn't do it, she was still too naive.
If she could have told us in advance, or reminded us privately after arriving home, she would definitely not be allowed to take out these pieces of fabric.
The eldest brother and the second younger sibling are both people who are greedy for money. Once they see the things, it is too late to hide them. "
After all, they are both mother and son, and they both have the same thoughts. Chen Yufeng continued: "If she had told her in advance, she wouldn't have to give out these pieces of fabric. I'll keep them for her, whether she can use them by herself in the future." It doesn't matter if she gives it away, these are her own things.
It's good now, it's really cheap for the boss and the second child. The eldest son and the second daughter-in-law are both stingy people. Once something comes into their hands, they will only take advantage of it and will definitely not think about returning the favor.
Zhixi gave away such an expensive thing all at once, and at most she could buy a good one, so her intentions were in vain. "
Lin Zhihui couldn't see her mother sighing, so she could only persuade her:
"Zhixi is still young after all. You should teach her more about the cares in dealing with people in the future. My little sister is a smart person. If you explain the matter thoroughly, she will naturally know that people should be treated differently in dealing with people.
Next time she gives gifts, she will know how to arrange them properly. "
"Okay, I hope this happens only once and never again."
When the matter was over, Lin Zhihui quickly changed the subject: "My little sister gave me such an expensive gift. I don't know how to return it for a while. You have to help me come up with ideas and think about my shortcomings. What?"
After Chen Yufeng thought for a while, she said: "You really stumped me. I can't figure it out. Wenxuan is a capable person. He has all the four major items in his family, even the clothes your little sister is wearing. I bought one outfit after another, and I really can’t think of anything missing about her.”
"If you can't think of it at the moment, then think about it slowly. It's not appropriate to delay this matter for too long. It's best to repay the favor within a week.
Xiaomei and Wenxuan definitely didn't have this idea, and they probably never thought of asking me to return the favor.
But my little sister’s mother-in-law will definitely pay attention to this matter. If someone sends such an expensive gift, and our family doesn’t even give a gift in return, I don’t know what she will think. Zhiwen and Zhiwu can't be counted on. If I, as the elder sister, don't give in to them, the little girl's life in her husband's family will probably not be easy in the future, and she will definitely be picked on by her mother-in-law. "
The two mothers discussed it over and over again, and finally Chen Yufeng gave the suggestion, "The Yue family is from a high-ranking family and has no shortage of daily necessities, so let's not consider it from this aspect.
Your little sister has been fond of all kinds of jewelry since she was a child. Although the current social atmosphere does not advocate wearing these luxurious things, I think there will be a day when she can wear them.
I just thought, why don't you buy her a jade bracelet, she will definitely like it. Today's Hetian jade and jadeite are not worth much. You should be able to buy a good pair of bracelets for a hundred or more yuan. Find a knowledgeable person to choose carefully, and don't let others cheat you.
Wenxuan's mother and grandmother were both well-off people when they were young. The quality of the jade bracelet should not be hidden from their eyes. They must not make a joke and make others look down upon. "
Lin Zhihui said happily: "Your suggestion is good. I will find a knowledgeable person to ask about it later."
"Don't be afraid if the price is higher. Don't buy jade with poor quality. If the price is high, then count it as my share, and I will give you the extra money." Chen Yufeng was still a little worried and warned again. .
"It's not necessary. It doesn't matter if the price is higher. Can my little sister still make me suffer?
If the price is too high, I might end up taking advantage, and I don’t know how my little sister will compensate me. "
"It's really possible. Even if your little sister doesn't think of it, I think Wenxuan is a very particular person and I will definitely not let you suffer."
After the mother and son discussed it, Lin Zhihui quickly asked knowledgeable friends about the sale of jade bracelets, and finally selected a pair of jade bracelets worth 280 yuan from a private individual.
The price of this pair of jade bracelets was a hundred yuan higher than Lin Zhihui's budget. She originally didn't plan to buy it, but after the persuasion of her knowledgeable friend, she finally bought it.
What finally made her make up her mind was that the price/performance ratio was too high. If a jade bracelet of the same quality were purchased in a craft store, the price would be at least a hundred more, and such high-quality jade bracelets were rare.
The current jade bracelet is not worth much. If it weren't for the family's lack of money and other concerns, the original owner would really be reluctant to sell it like this.
After buying the bracelet, Lin Zhihui knew that her little sister had Sunday off, so she went to her home before noon to visit.
Yue Wenxuan was too busy with work and could not rest every Sunday. He had just gotten married and did not want to have such a full schedule, so he deliberately compressed his work so that he could spend Sundays with his new wife.
Lin Zhihui came to the door where the young couple was preparing lunch.
Seeing the eldest sister standing at the door, Lin Zhixi shouted in surprise: "Sister, why are you here? Come in quickly! You didn't say anything in advance so that I could be prepared."
"I'm not an outsider. Home-cooked meals are enough. There's no need to specially prepare delicacies from mountains and seas to entertain you."
Lin Zhihui walked into the room, carefully put the things in her hands on the table, and said to Yue Wenxuan who stood up:
"Why do you, a great professor, work with me? Zhixi was taken care of so well by my mother. She got married in a hurry before she even started cooking. Can the food she cooks suit your taste?"
"Zhixi has some talent in cooking. Although her skills are a bit lacking for the time being, under my influence, I believe she will improve soon." Yue Wenxuan told the truth.
When it came to cooking, Lin Zhixi had a lot to talk to her eldest sister, so she held her hand and complained:
"Sister, tell the truth, how is the food I cooked? Generally speaking, it should be pretty good, right?"
Lin Zhihui glanced at Yue Wenxuan and said honestly: "Although she's a little worse than our mother, she's pretty good. At least she's better than me. I really don't have any talent in cooking."
"Yeah, I also think my talent in cooking is pretty good. I basically cook when I'm at home, and my mother says the food I cook is delicious."
Although Lin Zhixi said these words to her eldest sister, her eyes were always staring at Yue Wenxuan.
Yue Wenxuan understood what his wife meant and said helplessly: "I didn't say that your cooking was bad, but there is still room for improvement.
A person's life is very long, and there are only a few important things in a long life, and eating is one of them.
Since it is a lifelong event, of course we must do our best and strive for excellence.
And I didn’t ask you to prepare the meal. Don’t we still have me in our family? It's the same when I cook. "
After listening to Yue Wenxuan's words, Lin Zhihui looked at her younger sister, frowned and asked, "Zhixi, is it Wenxuan who cooks at your house?"
Before Lin Zhixi could answer, Yue Wenxuan rushed to say, "You can't say that, I just did it while cooking, and it didn't take more than a few minutes in total.
After an hour of cooking, I only have a few minutes to make a difference, but I dare not take all the credit. "
Although Yue Wenxuan explained well, Lin Zhihui still reprimanded in a stern tone:
"Lin Zhixi, you are really capable! How troublesome can it be to make meals for two people, and how busy are you? Why are you so embarrassed to ask Wenxuan to cook?
When did you become so thick-skinned? With so many houses in the corridor, no one laughs at you? "
"Why is no one laughing at you? There are so many people pointing fingers behind your back. I just can't stand it, so I'm complaining to you.
I will never learn to be cheeky in this life. Do you think I am willing to let him cook? It’s not that he dislikes the fact that my cooking is too unpalatable and insists on doing it myself. What can I do? "
Lin Zhixi was almost dying of grievance.
This is not the first time Yue Wenxuan has experienced this era, and he is still clear about the general concepts of this era.
The families living in this building are basically all highly qualified people, but even in such a high-minded family, the hostess basically cooks, and the men in the family rarely help.
