1980s: I was reborn after being scumbag to death

Chapter 50 Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law
When Meng Shulan first proposed to do business, Meng Changli stood up to support her without hesitation.

There is nothing you can't do if you can make money.

But after calming down, I felt that if I got involved in this matter, it might not be so smooth.

She is a bit thick-skinned, but that doesn't mean she doesn't know how to think things through.

At present, there is no formal system. Not to mention whether her husband will support her, her mother-in-law probably will not agree.

She is a person with old-fashioned and rigid thinking. She often talks about cutting off the tail of XXism and words like Huang Shiren. It is impossible to let her do business when the policy is unclear.

But her sister said that the policy would be released soon, and since the whole family was very excited, Meng Changli didn't want to spoil the fun and didn't mention it.

At that time, she thought it was just an idea, and whether it would succeed was still unknown, so she would wait and see the situation.

Later, the two sisters went into the city.

Meng Changli saw the prosperity of the city, shook hands with Song Huailing, and chatted with the owner of the noodle stall, and her thoughts also changed accordingly.

Originally she just wanted to help her mother's family and her younger sister, but now she also wanted to grit her teeth and get involved.

Apart from anything else, having money in your hands and not asking your mother-in-law and husband for money is better than anything else.

Huang Jialin is the only son in the family. As long as his parents-in-law are still alive, Meng Changli will not be able to manage the household.

In the past few years, the family's harvest and her husband's salary have been managed by her mother-in-law. Even if Meng Changli wants to buy a string of candied haws for her daughter, she has to ask for money from her family. Anyone who has experienced this knows what it feels like.

Meng Changli wanted to make money but couldn't tell her family. So when she went back to her parents' home this week, she made an excuse, saying that her mother wanted to open a tailor shop to make clothes for people, and she bought a sewing machine but didn't know how to use it, so she went to teach her.

Meng Changli knows how to operate a sewing machine. She learned it at the commune by using her family connections.

When she told this matter, Zhuang Bailu subconsciously thought that He Jinqiu wanted to be like her sister He Saijun and do some small business by relying on the supply and marketing cooperative.

Nowadays, tailor shops are considered a part of people's livelihood. They make money with their own hands and do not involve reselling. They are affiliated with units, and part of the money they earn is handed over and part is kept for themselves. It is currently compliant.

However, Zhuang Bailu also looked down on him. He was like Jose-jun, who not only smelled of money but also had to show up in public, which was embarrassing.

At that time, Zhuang Bailu asked Meng Changli to go back to her parents' home to persuade her not to do such shameful things for a few dollars. If she really wanted to make money, she had to get a proper job.

But Meng Changli refused to listen, saying that the family had already made the decision and her brother agreed, and it was her brother who helped buy the sewing machine.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade Jialin, Zhuang Bailu gave up and told Meng Changli not to go to the street to help, so as to avoid being seen by Jialin's colleagues and friends, which would be embarrassing.

What it all boils down to is that they think it's shameful to run their own business.

Meng Changli was a person who cared a lot about her mother's family. She had a few arguments with Zhuang Bailu on the spot, then packed up her things and went back to her mother's home with her two children.

So while working at her mother's house this week, Meng Changli was feeling angry. She wanted to do business better and make enough money to buy food and clothes, making those old-fashioned people envious.

Just as her plan was about to be implemented, her mother-in-law came to visit.

Who has such a long mouth?
Zhuang Bailu's words were so harsh that Meng Changli became angry. She lost all hope of trying to fool him and retorted, "I didn't steal or rob. I earned my money through my own labor. Why should I be ashamed?
Mom, we are all human beings, with two eyes and one mouth, do you have to speak so harshly?"

"Did I say something rude?" Zhuang Bailu pointed at Meng Changli in disbelief, as if she had committed some grave sin. "Do you understand what you've done? Do you know what you're doing now? When you were doing these things, did you consider yourself the daughter-in-law of the Huang family? Did you consider Jialin? Do you know that your actions could very well cost him his hard-earned job?"

Zhuang Bailu's thoughts and vision are obviously still stuck in a few years ago.

Meng Changli frowned, "Mom, can you please stop being so impulsive? I'm just doing my own thing. What does it have to do with Jialin? Besides, I've already talked to Jialin about this before!" Meng Changli still had some concerns because her husband was a public official.

She hid her business plan from her mother-in-law but not from her husband.

The young couple has only been married for a few years and they still have some affection for each other.

And she also wanted her husband to help cover it up for two months, so she must tell him about these things.

That day, Meng Changli and her mother went to the town to get a sample for her sister, and she took the time to go to the primary school to look for her husband.

She thought about it and decided that if her husband didn't like it, she would just operate the sewing machine to make clothes and ask someone else to help her with the selling work.

As long as she doesn't show up, there will be no problem.

Her husband looked a little embarrassed at the time, but he didn't say anything, so Meng Changli naturally thought that there was no problem.

So she followed him to town today. After all, it was the first day of business, and she wanted to come and take a look.

But now, why is this man silent?

Meng Changli was attracted to her husband because he was honest, not stupid.

In a situation like this, she naturally wanted her husband to stand up and speak a few words for her.

But Huang Jialin didn't say anything at all, and even avoided Meng Changli's sight.

Meng Changli was speechless and very angry.

Zhuang Bailu sneered and said calmly, "What's the point of telling Jialin? He always gives in to you. You only know how to bully my son."

Zhuang Bailu has been working in the Women's Federation for so many years, so her speaking skills are quite good.

Meng Changli couldn't argue with her and her hands were shaking with anger.

At this time, Meng Shulan came over and stood directly next to her sister.

"Aunt, what you just said is not right. How did my sister bully your son? Did she beat him? Did she scold him? Or did she give him too little food or clothes?"

Looking at Huang Jialin’s cowardly look, Meng Shulan doesn’t even want to call him brother-in-law.

Zhuang Bailu didn't expect Meng Shulan to stand up. Usually this little girl doesn't say much.

He is a high school student anyway, so his thinking is relatively clear.

Zhuang Bailu: "The elders are talking, it's not your turn to interrupt. Since you're a student, focus on your studies and avoid wasting time."

Zhuang Bailu is not only good at talking, but also good at making sarcastic remarks.

Meng Shulan snorted and looked at Zhuang Bailu with some disdain. "Your last name is Zhuang, and mine is Meng. If you're not my sister, how can you be considered an elder to me? So, don't act so arrogantly in front of me. If you want to bully my sister, ask me first."

Meng Shulan probably guessed that her sister had not explained the matter clearly to her family, but this did not prevent her from protecting and standing by her sister.

After her rebirth, she had long wanted to teach Zhuang Bailu, the mean old woman, and her cowardly brother-in-law a lesson.
