Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s

Chapter 389 The Jin family’s plan

Jin Yuhuan suddenly yelled at the top of her lungs, "Impossible! Your second uncle is the most filial, even more so than your eldest uncle. He's not as heartless as your eldest and second brothers. He must have been transferred out of town and it's inconvenient for him, so he doesn't come back to see us."

Jin Yi also echoed, "That's right, your second uncle is the most filial. When he was a child, your grandmother treated him badly. When your second uncle wanted to join the army, your grandmother didn't let him. Later, the army gave your grandmother ten silver dollars, and your grandmother let him join the army.

After he came back, he not only bought a house for your grandparents, but also found jobs for your uncle and me. Your second aunt was a very stupid rural woman, and she was particularly afraid of your grandmother, so she gave her all the money in the house.

As long as your grandmother goes to your second uncle's house, she will definitely give the money to your grandmother to manage."

Jin Yi also refused to admit that her second brother would ignore them. Her only hope now was this promising second brother, as her eldest brother was useless and unreliable.

After hearing this, Jin Yuhuan smiled so much that her face was full of wrinkles and her eyes were almost narrowed into slits.

She looked both arrogant and complacent, as if she had already obtained the management rights of her second son's household.

But she quickly put on a worried expression and said, "I don't know if the country woman he married will be able to take charge of the household, and if your second uncle's salary will be squandered by her.

Your second brother refused to listen to my advice and insisted on marrying a country girl. Look at that damn girl, renting such a nice house by herself, isn't that a waste of money? She really doesn't know how to live at all."

Jin Yi said, "She probably wouldn't spend money recklessly. You only gave her five yuan a month back then, but she ended up with over a hundred yuan in savings, and in the end, it all came to me. Rural people are very frugal and don't want to spend money."

What she hopes now is that Lu Yunxia will be as frugal as she was back then, and preferably save a large sum of money so that she can never spend it all.

Jin Yuhuan thought about it and agreed, saying, "That's right. Rural people have never seen anything good. Even if they have money, they are reluctant to buy it. They just don't know how to enjoy life."

Jin Beibei looked at the two of them with disdain, but did not break their sweet dreams. She was sure that they had long since given up on recognizing this family.

Otherwise, even if people cannot come back, they have to send money back. People abroad can send money back, let alone domestic ones.

After a few minutes of silence, Jin Yuhuan suddenly shouted, "Oh, I've been talking to you guys so much that I've forgotten what I'm doing. I'll sell these clothes you don't want and buy you some good ones later.

Especially Beibei, you need to take more supplements. Your cousin is seven years older than you, but she looks younger than you, with skin so soft and supple you can squeeze water out of it. That's all thanks to her money."

Jin Yuhuan still didn't believe that Jiang Yanqiu was only twenty years old. After all, the doctor said that Lu Yunxia had injured her body and it was impossible for her to give birth again.

When Jin Yi heard this, her expression changed immediately and she said angrily, "We're going to my second brother's house, and you're still thinking about taking my clothes."

Jin Yuhuan said confidently, "I'm selling it because I'm going to your second brother's house. If you take it with you, it will be a bargain for your two nieces. They don't have good clothes to wear, and as their aunt, you should bring them some clothes as a gift."

And you need to take good care of your body, or you won't be as good as that country girl. If you run out of clothes, you can ask your second brother to buy you new ones. How can your second brother be without your clothes and things?"

Jin Yi thought about it and felt that it was right, so she stopped arguing.

Her unexpected miscarriage had taken a toll on her body, and she had to take good care of herself. She couldn't lose to anyone but a country boy whom she looked down upon.

Besides, her second brother has never been short of money. Those who held the same position as him back then all earn two or three hundred yuan a month now.

He must have saved a lot of money over the years, so buying her a few clothes is no big deal.

So she picked out clothes she didn't like and gave them to Jin Yuhuan to sell. She said, "Mom, do you think my second brother is already a teacher?"

Jin Yuhuan said with a smile: "Of course there are more than that. I heard that his former comrade, who used to be his subordinate, was just transferred here from another place and is now a corps commander. Not to mention your second brother!"

Jin Yi said excitedly: "That's amazing! If we can't find our second brother in the future, we will go to him to ask for information."

Jin Yuhuan was silent for a moment, then said, "Of course I can't find her. If that girl doesn't go home now, I don't believe she won't go home for the New Year either. Try not to trouble his comrades if you can, and we can ask them for help if we really need it in the future."

Jin Yuhuan was obviously feeling guilty when she said this. After all, when Jiang Anhua broke off relations with them, his comrade-in-arms was also one of the witnesses.

When Jiang Yanqiu heard the conversation between the family, she was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. This family had a really good plan.

With their plan, five Jiang Anhuas would not be enough to deal with them.

However, their plan might fail, as the Jiang family really doesn't have that much money for them to squander.

I don’t know how much money Jiang Anhua has. Anyway, Lu Yunxia is really not good at managing the family as they said, and she doesn’t have a penny.

There was no useful information afterwards. Three generations of people were just fighting over clothes.

But to be honest, Jin Yi has good taste and the quality of her clothes is very good.

Many of them were bought in overseas Chinese stores. The cheapest one costs twenty or thirty yuan, and some cost fifty or sixty yuan, or even more.

Many of the clothes are classic styles and will not be out of style even after fifty years.

Jiang Yanqiu and Tian Mi went to the Overseas Chinese Store, and Chu Tingnan and Qi Bing returned the foreign exchange coupons.

The prices inside scared the two of them so much that they didn't dare to ask. In the end, they just bought sanitary napkins and left quickly.

The three generations of the Jin family argued for a long time, and finally Jin Yuhuan took two large bags of clothes to the trust store to sell them. Supplies were in short supply in that era.

Many of those clothes were brand new, and the prices of second-hand ones were not low. In addition, Jin Yuhuan was good at bargaining, so she sold them for more than 300 yuan in total.

This scene suddenly reminded Jiang Yanqiu of Chu Tingnan buying second-hand clothes last year, and she inexplicably wanted to laugh.

She originally wanted to leave, but judging by the situation, she was sure that she wouldn't hear any useful news.

I guess the Jin family themselves are too embarrassed to mention what they did to Jiang Anhua and Lu Yunxia back then.

If we bring it up, maybe they will realize it themselves and their beautiful dream will be shattered.

Things that can drive people crazy are definitely not good, so they choose to pretend they never happened.

However, Jiang Yanqiu saw Jin Yuhuan find a deserted place, stuff half of the money into the insole of her shoe, and then curiously followed her to Jin's house.

As expected, Jin Yuhuan only quoted half the price, and Jin Yi kept complaining that it was too cheap and it would be better not to sell it.

Jin Yuhuan said that if they didn't sell rice, they would have nothing to eat, and the mother and daughter started arguing again.
