Chapter 180: Cooking Mulled Wine
On the way back, Xie Jinghao looked at Shen Meng, wanting to speak but hesitating. She couldn’t figure out why Shen Meng was still so nice to her second sister-in-law, Wu Xianglan, who used to bully both her and the child.
It was just cleaning, and it paid nearly twenty yuan a month. That’s a lot of money. She really should be throwing it to the dogs instead.
"Say what you want to say. Why do you keep sneaking looks at me?"
"Big sister, why are you so good to second sister-in-law now, giving her such a good job? I think Sister-in-law Qin Lan is much better than her."
Shen Meng looked at her and pinched Xie Jinghao’s face.
"You’re mistaken. It’s not that I don’t think of you, but Ni is still young and can’t be left alone. Otherwise, I’d also find you some work."
Xie Jinghao waved her hands repeatedly. She did not want to go. People in the county were not that easy to get along with, all lifting their chins high and speaking in a way that could choke you. When she accompanied Big Sister to the Cooperative Society or the State-Owned Restaurant, she never met a kind person; they liked to roll their eyes while talking. She couldn’t bear the thought of living in such an atmosphere every day.
Life should be spent in a familiar place, taking care of a husband and children, cooking meals throughout the seasons, and living solemnly.
Shen Meng understood Xie Jinghao very well and naturally knew her thoughts and ideas, which Xie Jinghao could see but Wu Xianglan could not.
What kind of place was that textile factory? Aside from those who were formally assigned there, anyone who managed to get in had big and small connections. A rural woman suddenly entering such a nice unit was definitely going to be talked about.
