Li Jiancheng lay on the bed, unable to calm down for a long time. He thought a lot for a while. When the bell for work came outside, he got up, packed himself, took the money given by his father-in-law and sister and set off.

"Daughter-in-law, I'm going to the supply and marketing cooperative now. Get up and close the door before going to sleep." He leaned into Shi Lingxi's ear and whispered softly.

Because his wife was pregnant, he was worried about sleeping like this with the door open. It would be bad if she was frightened again. After all, neither his mother nor his sister-in-law were economical.

"Yeah, I got it. You just need to buy the iron pot. I have everything else." Shi Lingxi was in a daze, having no idea what shocking secret she had revealed!

Li Jiancheng was startled when he heard this. What did his wife say?Does she have anything else?Are you a sleep addict?They had been married for many years, and he knew exactly how many moles she had on her body. How could he not know what she had?

Alas, my wife has nothing to worry about at home!Look, I have dreamed of becoming a millionaire, and I have everything...

Seeing that his wife was sleeping soundly, Li Jiancheng didn't ask her to get up and close the door, but locked it again from the outside.

Anyway, he will be back soon. The journey of three or four miles will not take long. Let her sleep soundly. She has been busy these days and is pregnant. She must be exhausted. !

Li Jiancheng was walking on the road with a backpack on his back, and from time to time he said a few words to the members who were rushing to gather. He didn't look sad at all, which disappointed those who wanted to watch the excitement.

In the crowd, watching Li Jiancheng's brisk figure walking further and further away, a trace of unwillingness flashed in Qian Xiangmei's eyes. Why, she thought that Shi Lingxi would be beaten and scolded by her mother-in-law this time. After a few days of dire straits, she She can also be happy and happy by the side, but this bitch is a blessing in disguise. In the future, she will be able to take charge of her own family and will no longer be bullied by her mother-in-law. Not to mention, I heard that she is favored by her husband, who protects her in every way, and even He didn't hesitate to have a big fight with his parents because of her, but why did he let her turn the tables?It really pissed her off!

The members of the commune were also talking about it. Although Li Laogen tried his best to hide it and prevent others from knowing that they had treated their eldest son badly, the village was so big, and Zhang Chunhua usually did not know how to restrain himself and often spoke ill of his eldest daughter-in-law outside.

Some people believed her words and would join in saying something wrong with Shi Lingxi. At this time, some insiders who couldn't stand it would help explain a few words behind her back. After a long time, everyone knew that their family was bullying The eldest daughter-in-law.

Nowadays, such a big thing as family separation, everyone is a neighbor, and they live so close to each other, how can they really cover it up.

Li Jianzheng and Sun Tingting felt bad after listening to everyone's discussion. They didn't feel that their parents-in-law had gone too far, but they were angry that their elder brother and sister-in-law had put their whole family in the spotlight this time. Their family bullied their daughter-in-law and treated them harshly. If the story of his son is spread like this, how can Tietou marry a wife in the future?

The couple didn't plan to go to work. They took leave and went directly home to report to their parents-in-law, ignoring the little sister Li Qin who came with them.

Pursing her lips, Li Qin lowered her head silently, turning a deaf ear to the comments around her.

Besides, Li Jiancheng had long legs and arrived in town soon. He went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative with a clear goal and went straight to the counter selling iron pots and other kitchen supplies.

There was a salesperson in his 20s who was knitting a sweater with his head lowered and his hands moving quickly, as if he didn't even know anyone was coming to buy something.

At this time, the supply and marketing cooperatives were all fed by the government, and the only people who could work here were people with connections from above. Most of the salespersons were usually arrogant and had their nostrils turned up in the sky.

Li Jiancheng waited for a while, but when he saw that the salesman still had no intention of raising his head, he could only ask: "Hello, comrade, I want to buy an iron pot. What is the price?"

The saleswoman didn't even raise her eyes, she kept moving her hands, and replied firmly: "Four yuan for the small one, five yuan for the big one, take it yourself."

Li Jiancheng glanced at the salesperson and said nothing. He walked directly to the iron pot placed next to him and looked at the two models. After thinking about it, they had fewer people at home now, so he moved a small one and used it carefully. I touched it with my hands and found that there were no flaws. I looked at the outside and it was quite smooth, so I put it directly into the backpack, then took out four yuan and handed it over.

The young saleswoman stopped what she was doing and reluctantly stood up to collect the money. After counting, she said impatiently: "Exactly four dollars." She put the money into the counter and sat down again to continue. Busy with your own business.

Faced with the arrogant and rude attitude of the saleswoman, Li Jiancheng's mood was not affected at all. There was nothing to be angry about. At this time, anyone who eats commercial food feels superior to others. They are ordinary people living their own lives, except for occasionally buying necessities. , there is no way to deal with them, and there is no need to get angry with them.

Li Jiancheng went to another counter without taking it seriously and bought some necessities such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. After buying a little of everything that he must use now, the money he brought was almost spent.

Looking at the two dollars left in his hand, Li Jiancheng hesitated for a while, then walked to the counter selling daily necessities and bought a bottle of cream for Shi Lingxi for one dollar and three.

His wife is beautiful and looks good even without oil, but he just wants to buy it for her, even though he doesn't have much money now.

Just wait, in a few years, he will definitely let his daughter-in-law live a good life. At that time, he will take her and his daughter to the city or the provincial capital to buy them cosmetics and beautiful clothes so that they can live happily every day. I'm so happy that I no longer have to live in poverty like now without enough food and clothing!

Of course, it's too early to say this now, and they don't believe it even if I tell them. The top priority is to earn work points first, strive to build a house as soon as possible, and give them a home that truly belongs to them.

He will go to work tomorrow and work hard to get more food after autumn. He cannot let his wife and children starve with him.

Having almost bought everything and almost running out of money, Li Jiancheng decided to go home now.

After putting all the scattered items underneath, and finally the iron pot, to test that it was quite stable and would not fall off halfway, Li Jiancheng picked up the full basket and set off home.

He didn't feel like it at first. About halfway through the journey, Li Jiancheng felt a little tired. He put down his backpack, unbuttoned his jacket, and fanned himself with the placket of his clothes.

After resting for about ten minutes and feeling that the heat in his body had subsided a lot, he carried his things on his back and continued on his way.

At about five o'clock in the afternoon, he entered the village. There were a few old ladies sitting under the big locust tree at the head of the village enjoying the cool air. Li Jiancheng, who was dripping with sweat, hurriedly said hello to them and passed by without saying a word. He saw Zhang Chunhua sitting behind the crowd, glaring at him with a sullen face.
