Chapter 287 Ying Gu Returns to the Door
Liu Gangzi's mother did not agree to this marriage at first. Although the Liu family is not considered a wealthy household in the village, it is more than the other. Gangziniang is afraid that she will end up with a poor family, and she will not be able to tell in the future. Later, it was Liu Gangzi who insisted and met Gu San and his wife several times, and he reluctantly agreed because he felt that they were reasonable.
Judging from the dowry of the Gu family's dowry, I am afraid that the Gu family's family background is better than theirs. Gang Ziniang felt a little embarrassed in her heart, and felt that she underestimated others, and she also looked down on the daughter-in-law Ying Gu. This is also a surprise!
When Aunt Ying came back, she went to Gu Ye's house to sit down and expressed her gratitude to her. If it wasn't for the makeup that Gu Ye gave her, and the dowry paid for by the wages she worked in Gu's family, her treatment in Liu's family would definitely not be as high as it is now.
Gu Ye chatted with Aunt Ying for a few things, and then asked: "I plan to expand the pharmaceutical factory after the new year. If Aunt Ying wants to, she can go to Yancheng with my uncle to help me. If you are familiar with it, you can help me bring new employees as soon as I go."
Aunt Ying knew that among the dozens of employees who went to the village, all of them were familiar with them and could bring them along. Ye Er was trying to find a way out for her!
Gu Li'er and Gu Ye'er were both her nieces. Gu Li'er and her are not much different in age, and they have worked together before, and the two of them talk almost everything. She knew that in the past six months, Gu Lier had nearly twenty taels of wages and bonuses. In this way, there are at least thirty or forty taels of income a year.
Although the Liu family has more than ten acres of land, they still have little money left in a year just by farming. In addition, the family has a large population. Gangzi has five brothers above him, all of whom are married and have children. There are only seven or eight radishes alone, and he can barely fill his stomach.
If she could work in a pharmaceutical factory and earn some money to subsidize her family, not only would she not have to go to the fields to work as a coolie, but she would also be highly regarded by her family. You must know that the employees of Yancheng Pharmaceutical Factory, except for the related households in Qingshan Village, are all servants who signed the death deed. The people next to you are easily not accepted!
Aunt Ying felt a little excited in her heart, but she didn't make a decision on her own. She looked at Gu Ye gratefully and said, "Thank you, but... I'm married after all. I have to go back and discuss with my in-laws and men. I'll give you an answer in two days. Can you see?"
"Okay, there are still four or five months before you leave Chun, so you can think about it slowly!" Gu Ye took Ying Gu's hand and told her some interesting things in the city.
Aunt Ying had something on her mind, so she chatted with Gu Ye a few words, and then left. On the way back from her mother's house, Aunt Ying couldn't hold back and told Liu Gangzi about it. In the end, she said a little nervously: "What do you think about this matter?"
"Go! It's a good thing to drop a pie in the sky, and it's an idiot who doesn't go!" When Liu Gangzi heard that, he had an income of 20 to 30 taels a year, and his hand holding the donkey trembled with excitement. This time when Ying girl returned to her mother's house, the Liu family specially borrowed a donkey and let her ride it back, earning enough face for her.
"Then... do you think mother will agree with her?" They all say that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are enemies. I wonder if mother-in-law will think that she encourages men to leave the house and live her own life alone.
Liu Gangzi thought for a while and said, "I'll tell my mother about this!"
When they arrived at Liujiacun, Liu Gangzi deliberately avoided several brothers and sisters-in-law and pulled his mother aside. When Gangzi Niang saw her little son's ghostly appearance, she laughed and scolded: "Stinky boy, why did you call my mother here secretly? Do you want money or meat?"
"Mother, what a great thing!" Liu Gangzi mysteriously explained the income of the employees of the Qingshan Village Pharmaceutical Factory to his mother in detail.
Gang Ziniang smacked her lips enviously and said, "It's only half a year, and it's only a dozen taels of money. The owner of this pharmaceutical factory is really generous. It's a pity that we don't have a way to get in..."
"Who said there is no way for our family?" Liu Gangzi straightened his chest and said with dignity, "The owner of the pharmaceutical factory is from Qingshan Village, and he is closely related to Yingzi's family. Before Yingzi got married, she used to be with her. The family has been working for a few months. Why is her dowry so rich? Most of it is paid for by her own wages."
"You mean... let your daughter-in-law talk to the owner of the pharmaceutical factory and continue working with him?" Gang Ziniang hesitated. As soon as the daughter-in-law entered the door, she ordered her to do this. What would the daughter-in-law think? What will the in-laws think of their family? Gangziniang is so strong, she really can't do such a thing.
However, the salary of more than 20 taels a year is equivalent to the income of their family working hard in the fields for four or five years. The little son's home is getting better, and her mother's heart is also happy. It is said that the youngest son and grandson are the lifeblood of the old lady. Among Gangziniang's six sons, the one who hurts the most is this young son. In her heart, she supported Gangzi's daughter-in-law to work in a pharmaceutical factory.
"This matter... Let me tell your wife. If she has a grudge in her heart, she will blame me for being a mother-in-law. You can't have a quarrel because of this. You also said that not ordinary people can enter the pharmaceutical factory. You still have to rely on your daughter-in-law to sacrifice her face to beg someone... Sigh, if the family conditions are a little better, I won't let a new daughter-in-law beg someone in a low voice..." Gang Ziniang lowered her voice.
Hearing this, Liu Gangzi felt a little guilty. Like when he was a child, he held his mother's arm and choked up: "Mother, it's all right. I'll tell Yingzi about this. If this thing is done, it will also benefit. The two of us. She should be able to understand me..."
Seeing that her younger son had used her usual coquettish tricks, Madam Gangzi nodded his head and said with a smile, "People who are married to their daughter-in-law are still so tired, and I'm not afraid that your daughter-in-law will laugh at you. This matter, you are fine. Tell Yingzi, if it doesn't work, don't get angry, do you hear me?"
I have to say that the third grandmother's vision is still good. At least the mother-in-law is sensible and understands human feelings. In this way, there will be less friction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
A few days later, Liu Gangzi happily called his mother aside. Gang Ziniang saw that her younger son's mouth was almost behind his ears, she glared at him with a smile, and asked, "It's done?"
Liu Gangzi nodded and said, "Yes! When Yingzi went back this time, she once sat down at her owner's house. When she learned that the pharmaceutical factory was going to expand after the new year, her owner asked her if she wanted to help. She also said that she was familiar with it. Yes, I can help bring the new couple. Yingzi felt that after a woman gets married, she should be honest with her husband and teach her children at home, so she vaguely passed it, neither saying yes nor no. When I mentioned it to her, she remembered this. Yingzi's boss asked her to give them an answer when their boss returned to Yancheng."
