Chapter 470: Evil Mother-in-law 16
Ma Xiangdong's eyes instantly turned red.
For many years, he had not enjoyed his mother's care and love.
In the past, as the eldest son of the Ma family, his parents valued him and liked him very much. But since his father died, he was like having a stepmother who squeezed his tender shoulders everywhere.
He gritted his teeth and held on.
He thought that his mother would never give him care and love again in this life. Unexpectedly, after he lost a leg, his mother's love returned.
At this moment, Ma Xiangdong even felt that it was worth it even if he lost his leg.
"Mom, Daya's mother doesn't know how to manage money. Please keep it for me first. When I need it, I will ask you for it." Ma Xiangdong insisted that his mother keep the money.
Yuanchun thought about it and decided that it would be better to put such a large sum of money into the space for safekeeping. If it was stolen, the eldest couple would be heartbroken.
Ma Laoer and his wife and Ma Xiangling are not honest.
Especially Ma Laoer's three children, who once secretly came to the original owner's room to steal snacks. If Ma Laoer knew that his eldest son had such a large sum of money hidden in the house, who knows if he would be tempted.
So Yuanchun accepted the money.
Of course, she was only keeping the money temporarily on behalf of the eldest brother, and the other ungrateful people had no chance of spending a penny.
In the afternoon, Yuanchun went to the mountain and caught two more pheasants.
In the evening, Daya and Erya stewed a pot of chicken soup, put two large white radishes in it, and added a portion of purslane as a cold dish. The staple food was sweet potato and mung bean rice.
Today, Ma Xiangling was also taken by Wang Cui to work in the fields to earn work points. Although she only earned four work points, which was a little less, Yuanchun also gave her half a chicken breast to eat.
The three children of Ma Laoer's family each cut a basket of grass for the pigs and earned one work point. Yuanchun gave them a few chicken bones with meat on them to eat.
The good chicken was first distributed to the four people in the eldest wife's house, and then to Ma Laoer and his wife.
After the meat was divided and everyone ate, Ma Xiangling took the initiative to wash the dishes.
After Yuanchun washed up and went back to her room to sleep, Ma Xiangling entered her room and asked her cautiously, "Mom, you went to my third brother's house today. Are my third brother and sister-in-law at home?" "Your third brother came home from get off work. Your third sister-in-law is on duty at the supply and marketing cooperative and couldn't go back. Lingzi, why are you asking this?" Yuanchun took a cattail leaf fan and fanned herself slowly, staring at her little daughter curiously.
Ma Xiangling smiled flatteringly, "Mom, my third brother and his wife are the most stingy, but they are very good at saving money. They must have saved a lot of money. Mom, give me two dollars. I want to buy a bottle of vanishing cream. I have used up all my vanishing cream."
"Why put on any vanishing cream? I've lived for decades without using any vanishing cream and I'm still living like this. Okay, get out and close the door."
Yuanchun impatiently drove her out.
Ma Xiangling pouted and wanted to cry, "Mom, look at my face. It has become much darker after being exposed to the sun all day. If I don't apply the vanishing cream, my face will be ruined."
Yuanchun's face sank. "Which girl in the village has never had her face exposed to the sun? Only your face is so precious that it cannot be exposed to the sun?"
"mother……"
"go out……"
"mother……"
"Why, did you come here on purpose to get beaten?"
"No, Mom, I'll be out right now."
Ma Xiangling was so frightened that she ran out quickly, not forgetting to close the door for Yuanchun.
The next day, Yuanchun, who had rested for two days, had breakfast and went to the brigade headquarters with her son, daughter, and daughter-in-law.
The double harvest season in the village had just passed and now was the sesame harvesting season. Yuanchun's task was to pull out the sesame seeds, pull out the sesame stalks and put them in a pile.
Someone else tied the sesame stalks into small bundles and sent them to the drying yard.
After the sesame seeds have been dried for two or three days, you can harvest them.
Use a stick to hit the bundled sesame seeds, and they will fall down like raindrops.
