Chapter 758 Wanting Two Jobs
Chapter 758 Wanting Two Jobs
There were only three more men in Courtyard No. 2 who started returning home normally, but it gave people a feeling that the place suddenly became lively.
In the morning, when the men go out, the children will chase them and see them off.
In the evening, when the men came back, the children would run to welcome them.
In short, there was constant laughter and joy.
Time passed quickly, and it was mid-January. Someone outside was beating drums and gongs to notify everyone to go buy food.
It's not just food, but also all the other supplies needed at home. Now, whether it's the farmers' market or various stores, the goods are all available!
The price is indeed slightly higher than usual, but the advantage is that there is no longer a purchase limit.
In fact, ever since the people on the black market were arrested, the purchase restrictions on grain in Wumu Town have gradually been lifted.
People can obviously buy more food, and they are no longer stingy about food, so the happiness index rises linearly.
Now, when it is time to buy New Year's goods, Wumu Town has also received relatively sufficient supplies. As long as you act quickly, you can always buy what you want.
After all, in this era, supplies are not always available. Even in first-tier cities, supplies are relatively scarce. If you wait until the last day to buy, you will definitely not be able to buy what you want.
So, as soon as they heard the sounds of gongs and shouts outside, Sister Jin and the others took action immediately.
They also called their children to go to the meat store or other places to help queue up, and wait until they had bought food and other things before going to their side.
After working together for two days, everyone finally bought the New Year's goods they wanted to buy.
In fact, although we say we are buying New Year’s goods, in the final analysis, what we buy are still necessities for the home.
Ye Shu bought some more cloth and prepared to make new clothes for the three little ones for the New Year.
They took the good fabrics from their changed clothes and made new ones for Sisi and Xiaowu.
That day, everyone was working at Mrs. Jin's house.
Ye Shu was not reading a book for a rare time, but was taking apart the old clothes of the three little ones.
They were so naughty that there were holes in almost every pair of their pants.
Mrs. Tang was puzzled: "Why are you taking these apart? These are the children's clothes. Can't you just give them to Sisi and Xiaowu when the time comes?"
She thought Ye Shu wanted to make some new styles of clothes for the children.
Ye Shu: "No, just cut off the damaged parts and make a new one."
She had not considered a new style before, but now that Mrs. Tang reminded her, she felt that she could indeed change it.
In this way, at least on the surface, the twins are not wearing the old clothes of the other three little ones.
But her ability to make clothes was really average, and she didn't have the time, so she could only shamelessly ask Mrs. Jin and Zhuang Jingjing for help.
Of course, the two of them didn't say anything.
Ye Shu expressed her thoughts. Mrs. Jin and Zhuang Jingjing were fine. They were basically immune to her parenting concepts. No matter how unconventional her ideas were, they sounded normal to them.
Mrs. Tang was a little surprised: "If that's the case, aren't you afraid that your child will become spoiled?"
Ye Shu: "It's okay to be a little pampered about clothing and food. Besides, I can afford it. I can just focus on honing the child's character and abilities in other areas."
For example, Huo Yisheng has asked the three little ones to get up every morning and practice boxing with her. Because they are still young, they are not required to get up as early as he does, so they are just following her for the time being.
After boxing, you can choose between standing in the yard for half an hour or going out and running with the little warriors for half an hour.
It is to start gradually training their physical strength and endurance.
Needless to say, the second and third daughters were also asked to practice with Guaiguai so that she could lay a very good physical foundation in case she really chose to play table tennis in the future.
Mrs. Tang thought about it and felt that what she did was right, so she decided to let Jun Mo practice with her.
The three boys from Mrs. Jin's family also followed suit, but it was obvious that each had different talents, and the degree to which they could persist and the final results achieved were very different.
Let’s talk about these later.
At that moment, several people were helping Ye Shu alter his clothes. While they were busy, there was a knock on the door outside.
Although the crisis has been resolved on a large scale, Courtyard No. 2 has still developed the habit of keeping the gate closed at all times.
They were talking animatedly in the house when the children outside heard a knock on the door. They all rushed to the door and shouted through the door, "Who are you? Who are you looking for?"
Because although the courtyard gate was closed, it was not actually locked. If it was someone in the yard, they would naturally push the door open and come in.
The noise was also heard in the house. Mrs. Tang stood up and walked out: "I'll go open the door."
As a result, she didn't come back for a long time, and the children were still gathered under the eaves to watch the fun.
Mrs. Jin was surprised: "What's wrong?"
Because of what happened to Chen Miao before, everyone suddenly became nervous, put down their work and walked out.
Mrs. Tang was being held by two women, one on each side. "Comrade Tang, this is probably the situation at my family. You must help us!"
Looking more closely, everyone found that these two people were somewhat familiar. They were the old lady and eldest daughter-in-law of the Lin family in Yard No. 5.
They were not standing at the gate of the courtyard, but had already come in and were standing in the corridor inside the gate. The gate was ajar, just enough to block the view of people outside.
It can be seen that Mrs. Tang was very reluctant. She must have been pushed in by the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, half by force and half by pleading.
Ye Shu noticed something was wrong and called out, "Mrs. Tang? What's wrong?"
Sister Jin also looked at the Lin family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and asked, "Are you asking someone to do something for you? If someone didn't know, they would think you were holding someone hostage!"
She is outspoken and speaks directly, and doesn't like to waste time beating around the bush.
With this kind of personality, people who are not familiar with her will find it very difficult to get along with her.
The Lin family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were embarrassed on the spot. They smiled awkwardly and then let go of Mrs. Tang's hand:
"No, no, don't get me wrong. We do have something we'd like to ask Comrade Tang for help. Maybe our way of expressing ourselves was a little off, but we mean no harm. We're just not very cultured..."
Wenhua said, I won’t take the blame!
Ye Shu didn't look at them, but only asked Sister-in-law Tang: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"
Mrs. Tang has a softer personality. She guessed that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law must have known about her character, and what they wanted was probably about work.
really.
Mrs. Tang said, "They want me to help arrange two jobs for the women of the Lin family."
Ye Shu: "Two?"
Mrs. Jin and Zhuang Jingjing's eyes fell on the old lady of the Lin family and the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lin family.
Mrs. Tang: "They are the two sisters-in-law of the Lin family."
