Reborn in the 70s as a shrew

"And you, Brother Jianye, can't blame me for not having enough to eat, right?"

Su Juan immediately understood what Xu Maisui meant, and her face turned red with anger, "You mean, I shouldn't come to your house for dinner?"

After hearing this, Xu Maisui continued to lower his head and wash the clothes. While washing, he replied: "I only know that no one has enough food in this day and age. No educated person would go to other people's houses to eat at this time."

Su Juan: "You..."

Just when Su Juan was about to quarrel with Xu Maisui, Lin Jianye came out after clearing the dishes. He looked at Su Juan and asked in surprise: "Didn't you go back?"

Su Juan: "I have something to say to Maisui."

Xu Maisui followed up and said: "Comrade Su doesn't think it's good to have free meals at our house, so he told me that he wanted to help me wash my clothes."

After hearing this, Su Juan could only nod awkwardly, "Yes! Food is precious these days, and I can't eat for free. I just happen to help Mai Sui wash clothes."

Lin Jianye nodded after hearing this and went straight to the kitchen without asking any questions.

As soon as he left, Su Juan asked angrily: "Xu Maisui, what do you mean?"

Xu Maisui stood up and said, "It's not interesting. You have to do laundry. Hurry up! Lin Xiao is still waiting to wear it tomorrow."

Su Juan: "What are you doing?"

Xu Maisui patted her waist and replied calmly: "I've been busy all afternoon and my waist hurts a little. I'm going to take a rest."

"And wash those clothes cleanly. Both my children love to be clean and would not be happy with a little bit of oil." After that, he entered the house.

It's great that these two skinny monkeys finally got rid of their clothes.

Su Juan glanced at the basin full of black water, and then at her white and clean hands. She wished she could bite Xu Maisui to death immediately, but since Lin Jianye was still there, she could only start washing the clothes without complaint. It took more than an hour to wash the clothes before scrubbing them clean.

During this period, Xu Maisui kindly went out to see her once. Seeing that she was almost finished washing, he kindly reminded her that if there was not enough washing, Lin Xiao and Lin Fan still had two pieces of clothing left in the room.

Su Juan was so frightened that she ran away after washing her clothes without even drying them. When Lin Jianye came out, she saw Xu Maisui working alone in the yard, "Why are you drying your clothes, Su Juan?"

Xu Maisui: "Let's go. You said this person has washed half of the meal but you have finished it! Why don't you leave without eating half of the meal?"

Lin Jianye·····

"Do you have any money with you?"

Lin Jianye raised his head and took a deep look at her and asked, "Mom wants to take all the money you have with you again?"

Xu Maisui: "You still don't know what your mother is like. She is more powerful than the Japanese who entered the village. There is nothing left."

After hearing this, Lin Jianye stood up and took out a handful of money from his jacket pocket. After thinking about it, he took out a ten-dollar note and handed it to her.

Xu Maisui looked at the remaining money in his hand, and found that there was about 15 yuan left.

Because Xu Maisui is soft-tempered, Lin Jianye is in charge of the family's money. Whenever she runs out of money, she will ask Lin Jianye for it, but only once or twice a month. After all, Lin Jianye's salary is limited.

After collecting the money, Xu Maisui said to Lin Jianye: "There is no food at home. You can go to the team to eat tomorrow!"

Lin Jianye: "Okay."

After talking to Lin Jianye, Xu Maisui went back to the room, sat at the desk, looked at herself in the mirror, and couldn't help but fell into deep thought again. She was only 27 years old this year, but she lived like a 40-year-old, with dry hair. , his face was sallow, the bags under his eyes were particularly big, and his eyes were sunken deeply into their sockets, just like those of Africans who were fleeing.

The clothes on her body were not bright, they were dusty and had two patches on them. No wonder the wives of Lin Jianye's comrades-in-arms looked down on her, and even she herself disliked herself.

I reached out to get some snowflake frost to wipe it with, but when I opened the box, I saw that it was empty. Mrs. Lin had dug out all the things.

With a sigh, he put down the box, stood up and went to the cabinet. He found two brightly colored clothes and put them on the bed before striding out.

There is no bathroom in their place. Women always take a bath in the house. They carry water and wash it in a basin. After washing, they pour it into the yard.

Lin Jianye happened to finish cleaning up when she went out. He saw the bucket in her hand and knew that she wanted to take a bath, so he asked casually: "Do you want my help?"

Xu Maisui: "No, you go out and look for the two children. Don't play too late."

Lin Jianye: "Okay, I'll lock the door for you from the outside."

Xu Maisui: "Yeah."

An hour later, after taking a shower, Xu Maisui was sitting in the yard wiping his hair with a towel when he saw Lin Jianye walking in with a dark face and carrying two clay figurines. Xu Maisui was so shocked that he even forgot to wipe his hair.

"What happened? Did you fall into a mud pit?"

Lin Jianye pushed the two children forward and said angrily: "Speak for yourself!"

Lin Xiao turned around and glanced at Lin Jianye with a stern look and replied: "I blame dad. If he hadn't come to us with a black face, we wouldn't have been scared away, let alone fall into the mud pit."

When his father suddenly appeared in the woods, he thought he was going to take care of them behind his mother's back. The two brothers looked at each other and started running. Unexpectedly, they panicked and fell into a pit.

After hearing this, Xu Maisui glanced at Lin Jianye and saw that his calves were also stained with mud.

"There is boiling water in the kitchen. Let your father bring it for you two to wash. I have a terrible headache. I will go back to the house to sleep." After that, he went straight back to the house.

After hearing this, Lin Xiao and Lin Fan looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally asked Lin Jianye, "Dad, does mom dislike us?"

Lin Jianye frowned and replied angrily: "What do you think!"

Lin Xiao: "Why is Mom like this? In the afternoon she treats us as little babies kissing each other, but in the evening she turns against us and doesn't recognize each other."

Lin Jianye listened to Lin Xiao's complaint with a sullen face, and asked angrily: "Why are you kissing the little darling and listening there?"

"It's the grove behind the mountain..." Lin Xiao suddenly reacted and covered his mouth mid-sentence, turned around and was about to run away.

Lin Jianye quickly grabbed the back of his clothes and said in a cool tone: "How many times have I told you that I won't let you go to the woods behind the mountain."

Lin Xiao turned his head and smiled, "I was just passing by, passing by..."

Lin Jianye looked at him and frowned in disgust, "Next time, I'll have to break your legs."

"When did your mother become like this?" Lin Jianye looked at the dark room and asked in a serious tone.

Lin Xiao's expression changed and he became serious, "That's what happened when I woke up in the afternoon."

Lin Jianye: "Was there anything unusual before?"

Lin Xiao touched his head and replied tangledly: "No, right? We were not at home in the afternoon."

Lin Jianye looked at the two clay figures in front of him and knew the virtues of the two brothers. He replied speechlessly: "Okay, go take off your clothes and take a shower." After that, he went to the kitchen to bring them hot water.
