Chapter 350: A good time to sow discord
Chapter 350 A good time to sow discord
The brick kiln factory opened, and I made a stew, a seaweed and egg drop soup, and a pickled cabbage and tofu. The ingredients were quite sufficient. The egg drop soup was taught by Shen Meng. I beat the eggs into pieces and put them in when the pot was on the highest boil. Pour the eggs in and stir them back and forth twice. When it comes out, it seems like there are eggs in every bowl.
A group of men who had only had two meals at home all year round, now looking at the baskets of steamed buns and pots of vegetables, wanted to pounce on them and eat them.
Shen Meng, Xiao Zhang, Feng Si and the directors of the commune were having dinner together. Among them were Director Guo and Lu Jiaxuan, whom Feng Si had specially called over. They looked at Shen Meng's work in the brick kiln, and their moods were very different.
One is proud from the bottom of his heart, and the other is so uncomfortable that he can't breathe.
After the business was done, Director Guo took Shen Meng aside.
"Xiaomeng, can I tell you something?"
"Auntie, tell me."
"What's going on? I see that Zhenping is working in the provincial capital now, and Mingyang's children will soon be transferred to the county town for school. You are usually busy, and there is no one to take care of you at home. I want to introduce you to someone. You can help at home, do laundry, cooking, cleaning, etc., what do you think?"
Shen Meng actually had this idea, but he never found the right person.
The girl from her second sister-in-law's family is still young, and Xiangxiang is also pregnant now. She definitely can't let her parents come over to help take care of the child. No matter how smart Mingyang and the others are, they are just children, and there are no adults around them. It really doesn’t work.
"Auntie, to tell you the truth, I do want to find someone, but I haven't found anyone suitable yet. Where is the person you introduced coming from? How old is he? What kind of person he is? Does he have any bad hobbies? Has he been to school? "
"Ah, there are still so many conditions, so the designation I'm talking about won't work. I'm talking about my natal sister-in-law's sister. She's divorced. Now she's alone. She's honest and good at housework, but she's not. Went to school."
Guo Xiuqin said something sarcastic. She didn't expect Shen Meng's demands to be so high. She just saw that the girl was pitiful, so she wanted to help. She also wanted to arrange it in the flower factory, but the girl was sewing. Life is not good, and his speech is very dull. If you are not used to being assigned to the flower factory by the time you get there, you might as well be working as a helper for others.
Moreover, Shen Meng is kind, and Mingyang and the others are smart and well-behaved. The girl is determined to be more open-minded. This is also the original meaning, but Shen Meng's requirements are so high, this matter may become dirty.
Shen Meng didn't care that there were so many poor people in the world. Mingyang's children were gradually growing up, and the people around them couldn't just do housework. If that was the case, she would just let a few of them grow up. The child can eat with Aunt Chang.
"Auntie, I definitely can't go here. I'm very busy running around. Looking at the Mingyang brothers and sisters, you must have some knowledge to be able to control them. I only have a daughter Fangfang in the family. My child, when she was here, the Mingyang brothers could be more restrained. If she were not here, the roof would be blown over in a short time. Hey, now I finally know how considerate my daughter is. "
"No, when I first got married, I thought about giving birth to a boy for my husband's family. Having a boy would secure my status and give my husband's family an explanation. Only those who have a daughter know how considerate this girl is, just like a little cotton-padded jacket. ”
Shen Meng smiled and said nothing. She didn't have the mentality of favoring boys over girls. What kind of evil mother-in-law told her about the legs of their second uncle and grandma.
After taking a sip of water, he saw Lu Jiaxuan sitting on the side with his head lowered, eating his rice listlessly, which was incompatible with the joyful atmosphere around him.
"What's wrong with Jiaxuan? Why do I look so depressed?"
"Hey, you haven't been back to the village for a long time. Of course you don't know. He and his wife had a fight the night before. Hey, the fight was so severe that you can't tell me what this is. How did we live in the past? It's hard, the two of us are so good, they are so sticky all day long. Now that life is getting better, they should both be holding on to their iron rice bowls, but instead they are at odds, just free." Shen Meng: "..."
And this is a great thing, isn’t it said that the male protagonist loves the female protagonist to death? Why should I wave my fist in love? ? ?
"That's not good. You can't hit a lesbian. I'll have to talk to him about it later."
"It's not the fourth child's fault. I don't know what kind of anger Jiaojiao got in the factory. She went home and yelled at the man and the child. It's not just a disagreement...it's okay. The couple had a quarrel at the end of the bed and a fight at the end of the bed. It's not a problem. , not in the way.”
Shen Meng nodded solemnly. Whether there was anything wrong or not had nothing to do with her. No, it couldn't be said that it didn't matter. She was from the atmosphere team.
Guo Xiuqin hadn't seen Shen Meng for a long time, so she pulled her for a chat. At this time, Xiao Zhang came over and reminded her that she would have a meeting in the afternoon. Director Guo was very eye-catching, said hello and left.
Shen Meng packed up her lunch box and was about to go find Lu Jiaxuan when Xiao Zhang suddenly called her.
"Secretary-General, I, I just heard from Director Guo that you want to find someone to take care of Mingyang and the others. I just have a candidate. She is a very hard-working girl. She is nineteen years old. She has a lot of strength, is honest and enthusiastic, and also Went to elementary school.”
Shen Meng raised his eyebrows and looked at him with some scrutiny. Xiao Zhang's face turned red and he was stunned.
"I, I just want to help her. She is from our village. Her parents are also very good. She has two sisters and a brother. Her brother is eighteen years old and now works in our brick kiln factory. He knows everything about her. ”
"Look at you, I didn't say anything. It's good to be young. Young girls are quick to respond. I really want to find someone to help take care of the children. After all, I'm usually busy and can't always leave them at home or be with Director Qi. Okay. , You can bring the girl to our house in two days. If it works, stay. If it doesn’t work, I won’t force you!"
"Hey, okay, Secretary General, I'll talk to her later."
Shen Meng saw that his face was red, nervous and happy, it was obvious that he had made a mistake.
After finishing her words, she handed the lunch box directly to Xiao Zhang, turned around and walked towards Lu Jiaxuan.
There was a good opportunity to sow discord, and she didn't want to miss it.
Lu Jiaxuan was eating when he suddenly felt darkness in front of him for a moment. He looked up and saw Shen Meng, who looked slightly serious.
He quickly stood up, swallowed the food in his mouth, and smiled at her. No matter what, Shen Meng had a high position now and was still his elder, so he had to be more polite.
"Sister-in-law."
Shen Meng frowned and glanced at him up and down.
"Jiaxuan, what's wrong with you? Why are you so listless? Today is the grand opening day of the brick kiln factory. You can't be in this state!"
