Play Speak
Yang Dan was going to do the laundry, and Liu Guixiang from next door also came out with a basin of clothes, and she left her son to be taken care of by her eldest daughter.
Kang Qing and Xue Ming also finished their housework and went out each carrying a basin of clothes.
They all gathered outside the yard, calling Yang Dan.
Xue Ming: "Hurry up, Yang Dan, there won't be any good seats left."
Kang Qing: "Why haven't you finished it yet so late today?"
Liu Guixiang: "I heard that Yang Dan also washed the dishes this morning, and her sister-in-law hasn't even come out yet."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yan pushed open the door.
She was holding a baby, looking at the three of them, and then said, "Sisters-in-law, let's go wash clothes together."
The three of them smiled awkwardly and said yes. Kang Qing was thick-skinned. She smiled and asked, "Why, do you want to go take a shower together?"
Su Yan: "No, I still have to take care of my little baby, and there are no dirty clothes at home."
The three of them looked unhappy when they heard this. They had never seen Su Yan wash clothes. She said there were no dirty clothes at home, so it was probably because Zhu Bin washed them after coming back from work.
In fact, they all envied her. Zhu Bin used to help her with farm work, so she rarely went to the fields. Zhu Bin also helped with housework at home, so she did less housework.
Zhu Bin even took care of the child and her clothes, and asked who else could enjoy such a good life.
She was dissatisfied with this and that all the time. No one knew how an educated youth from the city like her could be satisfied.
Among all the cousins of the Zhu family, Zhu Bin is the most hardworking and loves his wife the most. She lives the best life, but she is still not satisfied.
Other educated youth were not as pretentious as her. They had to go to the fields to work even when they were sick, otherwise they would have no work points, no food, and no meals.
As for her, it was said that Zhu Bin helped her pay for her medical bills when she was sick, not to mention how much work he did for her.
The three of them couldn't help but complain in their hearts, but they still smiled and asked her what happened yesterday and what happened to the child?
At this time, Yang Dan finally took out all the dirty clothes in the room, filled a large basin with them, and then prepared to follow them to the river to wash clothes.
Seeing that Su Yan had nothing to do, she asked, "Sister-in-law, do you want to go to the river with us to chat? You must be bored at home alone."
Su Yan didn't hesitate and said, "Okay."
Four people: "..."
Whenever she was asked to join them in the past, she always refused and never hung out with them. Why did she change her mind today?
Yang Dan smiled awkwardly, then said, "Let's go?"
Su Yan: "Wait for me to lock the door and then I'll come."
Su Yan went to lock the door, and the sisters-in-law looked at each other.
I thought, who would steal from her house when her house was bare? Of course, maybe she had some dowry hidden in the bottom of the box.
They walked in front holding the basins, and Su Yan locked the door and followed them.
When they reached the river, each of them found a stone and started washing clothes.
Only Su Yan was there, holding the child and joining in the fun.
The four of them started talking about family matters as usual.
Kang Qing is the most active one, and she is usually the one who brings up the topic.
Kang Qing sighed, "Comparing yourself to others is really frustrating. I heard that Hu Zhiqing has never done housework for a single day since she married into Zheng Cheng's family, and Zheng Cheng even gives her his monthly salary for safekeeping."
Yang Dan was surprised and asked, "Will Zheng Cheng's mother be happy about this? Zheng Cheng's salary is about fifty yuan, right?"
Kang Qing: "No, forty-two yuan. He just got a raise when he became a regular truck driver. Before, he only made twenty-eight yuan."
Xue Ming: "Twenty-eight is already a lot, and now it's going up. It's really comfortable."
Liu Guixiang: "How can I marry a beautiful female educated youth if my salary is not high?"
Kang Qing: "That's right. For a beautiful girl like Hu Zhiqing, there are many people chasing after her. She only fell in love with Zheng Cheng because he is a truck driver. Otherwise, he would not be as good-looking as our Zhu Qiang."
Xue Ming and Liu Guixiang also nodded in agreement.
This Hu Zhiqing is one of the original body’s best friends. They were best friends when they were in high school. In the past, Hu Yuwei often visited the original body’s home. Whenever she saw clothes she liked, the original body would give them to her without hesitation.
The original body used to have a lot of beautiful hairpins. Every time Hu Yuwei went there, she would show an envious look. The original body was also generous and gave her whatever she liked.
Later, because of her family background, the original body was forced to go to the countryside. Hu Yuwei came to see her off and made her some eggs and scallion pancakes.
The original person remembered this friendship, but when Hu Yuwei also came here from the countryside and married one of the most promising young people in the area in less than half a year, the original person's feelings towards her changed.
The original body was jealous of her good marriage and good life, and also had a sense of loss due to the change in identity and status.
She feels unbalanced because people who were once not as good as her are now living better than her.
If I heard what my sisters-in-law were talking about now, I would probably be sulking alone again.
Look at other people's husbands who hand over their salaries every month, but she only has a peasant husband. No matter how much he works, he can't let her live a rich life.
But now that Su Yan is here, hearing these words, all he can feel is a sigh: a person will not always be smooth sailing, nor will he always be unlucky and inferior to others.
Everything should be created by your own efforts instead of waiting for others to give it to you.
The original incarnation was a high school graduate. If she had faced life positively, she would definitely have more choices. Unfortunately, she has always been very negative, always avoiding reality and blaming others.
This is probably because it has been a flower in a greenhouse for too long and cannot withstand the slightest wind and rain.
As they were chatting, Kang Qing suddenly asked Su Yan, "Su Yan, you and this Hu Zhiqing are both from Hai City. Is Hai City very prosperous? Is there a lot of nice clothes and shoes?"
Su Yan: "It's not bad. It's definitely more prosperous than our small mountain village, but it's not as peaceful as here. There are intrigues and everyone lives very cautiously."
When the four heard Su Yan say this, their envy suddenly disappeared.
Many of the clothes Hu Yuwei brought with her when she went to the countryside this time were given to her by her original body.
Every piece of clothing was made of fine material, making her look at least ten times more beautiful than anyone else here.
However, when she saw her original body wearing yellowed and white old clothes, looking at the clothes she was wearing with longing and nostalgia, she never thought of returning one or two sets of clothes to her original body.
Sometimes, true besties won’t watch the other person suffer.
Hu Yuwei knew clearly what she desired and why she was quarreling with Zhu Bin, but she never tried to persuade her or help her. Instead, she just watched her walk towards the abyss like a show.
Moreover, she often told her original self how good her life was and how lucky she was to have met her current husband.
She said that all the suffering she had endured for the past ten or twenty years was just for the sake of meeting Zheng Cheng here.
Compared with the educated youth who went to the countryside, Hu Yuwei's previous life was not hard at all. Her family might have favored boys over girls, but she had never lacked food and clothing.
As a result, in her cognition, her life in Hai City was actually suffering. This was simply stimulating the original owner, causing her to constantly recall the affluent life in Hai City. Comparing it with her current life, she would only feel more miserable.
