The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 600 Living expenses are not enough
After the wedding, Wu Qin took the initiative to take on the job of cooking. She said she wanted to help her sister-in-law share her worries, but in fact, she lowered Bai Meixi's food to the same standard as everyone else.

Now there are two pregnant women in the family. Wu Qin is heavier than Bai Meixi. The two elders of the family have always been real people. Seeing that Wu Qin is hardworking and keeps everything in the house in order, she gradually agrees with her heart. Don’t be too partial when it comes to food.

Nowadays, the eggs and meat at home are divided into two portions, one portion is sent to Bai Meixi's attic, and the other portion is nominally for everyone to enjoy together, but in fact, more than half of it goes into Wu Qin's stomach.

"Xiao Qin, you eat more. You are pregnant with the child now, so you need to eat nutritious food. My illness is almost healed. I don't need to take medicine now. If the money is not enough, I will let Hai Yi eat more. Send some money back.”

Bai Meixi's mother-in-law has mostly recovered from her illness. In order to support the expenses of so many people in the family, she stopped taking her daily medicine and relied only on the donkey-hide gelatin and Wuji Baifeng Pills that Bai Meixi brought back.Both of these medicines are good medicines in the capital, and their therapeutic effect is better than the medicine that Bai Meixi's mother-in-law takes every day. Stopping the original traditional Chinese medicine will naturally have no effect.

After Cheng Haiwen confirmed this matter with Bai Meixi, he stopped caring about his mother's discontinuation of traditional Chinese medicine and used the money to supplement the family's income.

But now his mother was actually concerned about his third brother's allowance. Naturally, he was unwilling and raised objections at the dinner table.

"Mom, when my third sister-in-law was in charge of the accounts, 23 yuan a month was enough. Now you don't need to take medicine. The family has 50 yuan a month. We should be very wealthy. Why do we have to ask my third brother for money?" .”

Although Cheng Haiwen doesn't care about the accounts, he is still clear about the family's expenses. In the past, it was no problem to support a large family with 50 yuan. Now that the old second sister-in-law has left and a new second sister-in-law has been added, there is only one more Hong Zhu in the number. How could there not be enough money?

"I mean, you don't know what your two sisters-in-law are doing now. They need to replenish their health. Even if the third brother wants to save money, he is not in a hurry."

Bai Meixi's mother-in-law glared at Lao Wu. A family has always been organized in an orderly manner, but now Wu Qin is his second sister-in-law. How could she be so rude?

"It's natural for the third sister-in-law to use the third brother's money to support herself when she's pregnant. The child pregnant by the second sister-in-law belongs to the second brother. Why should the third brother pay for it? Even if she wants to support herself, the second brother should pay for it. Didn't you say that before? Well, let them live alone, why did they forget it now?"

Cheng Haiwen was unwilling to hold back and directly brought up the old matter again, which completely disrupted Wu Qin's plan. She thought that life could just go by like this, but she didn't expect that Cheng Haiwen actually made the matter clear in front of everyone, making it impossible for their family to step down. .

"Mom, the fifth child is right. The third child earned the money and I have no right to spend it. Besides, I am a poor person and not so precious. You and the children should eat these things." Wu Qin put the eggs in front of her It was caught in Bao'er's bowl, followed by the two children from the sister-in-law's family. Hong Zhu also lifted the bowl, but Wu Qin forced it back.

Hong Zhu knew that this was Wu Qin's plan. She didn't say much, she just looked at the eggs in other children's bowls aggrievedly.

"Lao Wu! What do you mean! We are one family even if we are not separated! Now that you can make money, your wings have become stronger, right? You have forgotten who worked hard in the fields for you to study when you were a child! And the old man The same goes for San. He stays in the army all year round. My eldest brother and I are not responsible for everything at home. If anyone wants to separate the family, just come out and say it yourself, don't always use your mouth to speak!"

Cheng Haiqiang immediately became anxious when he saw Cheng Haiwen dare to target Wu Qin. He pointed in the direction of the attic and felt that all this was done by Bai Meixi.

He scooped the remaining eggs on the plate into Wu Qin and Hong Zhu's bowls and told them to eat as much as they wanted. As long as he was around, no one could say anything!
"Hai Qiang, what are you doing? You are so old and you don't know how to change your temper. How can you give me these things when my parents are here?" Wu Qin pretended to give the eggs to the second oldest child in the family. , several people pushed it around, and finally it fell into Wu Qin's bowl.

"Xiao Qin, it's too hard for you to take care of the housework while pregnant with a child. Your father and I are old and can't eat more meat. You should take more supplements and give us more grandchildren. What should we eat? Everything is happy.”

Mother-in-law Bai Meixi had a smile on her face and didn't feel anything was wrong at all. Even her sister-in-law and seventh sister were helping Wu Qin to speak, feeling that Cheng Haiwen was taking too much care.

"Fifth brother, if third brother's money is not spent at home, it will be spent on the Bai family. Didn't you see that the shoes on Bai Wenjun's feet are exactly the same as yours? They only cost 8 yuan, all of which are third brother's allowance. , we don’t know how many of them we haven’t seen, why don’t you go to Bai’s house to make trouble.”

Qimei originally felt that Bai Meixi was using Cheng Haiyi's money to subsidize her parents' family, and she was very dissatisfied. Now that she saw Cheng Haiwen talking to her, she simply raised the matter directly, and it had nothing to do with letting Cheng Haiyi use the money to subsidize her family. The Bai family, it is better to subsidize more household expenses to the public accounts, so that all the children and grandchildren can be supported.

"It's understandable that a daughter will miss her mother's family after she gets married. I heard that the whole Bai family relies on the salary of one little daughter to support them. With so many people, only ten yuan is enough to feed them. The third child is the son-in-law, so he should contribute a share. .”

When Wu Qin heard this, she was secretly happy. She immediately added fuel to the flames, and in a few words she confirmed Bai Meixi's support for her parents' family.

The two elders of the married family have always criticized He Shaoying, knowing that she was greedy for money. When Bai Meixi and Cheng Haiyi got married, this in-law made things difficult for them.

If Bai Meixi just sends some fruits and eggs on normal days, the two elders of the family will support it, but if they go to the Bai family to supplement living expenses every month, they will not accept it.

The meal ended unhappily, and the two elders of the married family couldn't sleep at night. They were thinking about what Wu Qin said, especially Bai Meixi's mother-in-law. She was afraid that He Shaoying's hand would stretch too long and empty Cheng Haiyi's hand. of savings.

"Old man, why don't we write a letter to Haiyi tomorrow and ask him to send back 10 yuan more every month, saying that he can replenish his body in Meixi. If he can't use it up, we can save it for him. It's always cheaper. Good to others.”

Bai Meixi's mother-in-law wants to seize Cheng Haiyi's financial power. It's not that she can't trust Bai Meixi, but seeing her mother's constant begging, and how many of her daughters can remain unmoved, she feels that Bai Meixi is soft-hearted and may As soon as I loosened my grip, I gave everything to my mother-in-law.

While Bai Meixi's mother-in-law was talking, Cheng Haiyi's father had been sitting by the bed and smoking. He had the same concerns about this matter. After smoking two bags of cigarettes, he knocked on the bedside heavily and made the final decision. decision.

"You can ask Hai Yi for an extra 10 yuan, but this money cannot be entered into the public account. It must be saved separately for the couple. When Hai Yi comes back, you will give it to him every cent!"
