Mo Xiaomei, 36 years old this year, she and her husband have been married for 11 years and have a son and a daughter, both of them work in the hospital, her husband is an orthopedic surgeon, she is **, with a monthly salary of 5000.
Mo Xiaomei and her husband originally lived with their brother and sister-in-law and parents-in-law in their hometown, and both husband and wife worked in a tertiary hospital in their hometown.
The day before the Dragon Boat Festival, Mo Xiaomei stopped Hu Xin just after getting off work and said, "Hu Xin, tomorrow during the Dragon Boat Festival, will you take the children back to your hometown?"”
Hu Xin replied to her: "I must go back, maybe in the afternoon." ”
Mo Xiaomei smiled and said, "Then you can take me with you, I'll pack my things tonight." ”
When Hu Xin heard her say this, he was stunned for a moment, frowned slightly and changed his words: "I may." Probably not going back. If I go back, I don't know when you don't go, if I do, I have to bring a lot of things, and I may not be able to catch you. ”
Mo Xiaomei sighed and said with a tone of regret: "Alas, that's really a pity, then you can call me with me next time you can catch me." ”
Hu Xinying left in a hurry with her.
In fact, Mo Xiaomei didn't really want to go, she also knew that Hu Xin would not take her there, and she just pretended to ask her.
Hu Xin is also **, Mo Xiaomei and her work in different departments. Three years ago, the two were transferred to this hospital at the same time, and the two of them of similar age became friends after they met.
One year ago, a few days before Labor Day, Mo Xiaomei went to buy coffee and bought a cup for Hu Xin by the way. The two went to dinner together, and during the chat, Mo Xiaomei inadvertently mentioned that her home was not far from the sea, and her brother and sister-in-law were engaged in tourism development in their hometown, and they had shares in a tourist attraction in their hometown.
Hu Xin suddenly became interested and said, "Wow, that's good." When are you going back?Can I come with you to your hometown?”
Mo Xiaomei said, "Yes." I'll be back for two days on Labor Day, so you can join me if you want to go. ”
Mo Xiaomei thought she was joking, how could anyone go home with someone else on Labor Day?It's impossible to think about.
Unexpectedly, Hu Xin really came. And early in the morning I took my son and niece to her house to wait, but since she came, she was definitely willing to take her there. It's just that the six people are a little crowded, but fortunately, there are more children, only her and Hu Xin, two adults, and the children can still sit down when they are squeezed in the back.
Hu Xin brought a carton of milk and two packets of sugar, saying that it was a gift for guests. Along the way, Hu Xin and Mo Xiaomei talked and laughed, accompanied by the noise of the children, it was about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and they finally arrived at their hometown.
Mo Xiaomei's family entertained Hu Xin very warmly, and her father-in-law went to buy seafood for almost 2,000 yuan in the morning, including prawns, flower nails, pig snails, flower crabs, skin shrimp, and oysters. My mother-in-law made herbal tea.
Mo Xiaomei put down her things and didn't see her sister-in-law, she asked, "Mom." Isn't my sister-in-law at home?”
The mother-in-law said, "Your sister-in-law and your brother are on the other side of the port." There are a lot of tourists during this time, and many people want to go to the island to catch the sea. ”
Hu Xin listened and leaned over and said, "Can you still go to the island to catch the sea?"Let's take us for a while. ”
Mo Xiaomei originally planned to take them to the free beach to play, because she needed to trouble her brother and sister-in-law to catch the sea on the island, and the cost of fuel was more expensive, and she didn't want to trouble her brother and sister-in-law.
Mo Xiaomei said: "It's too troublesome to go to the island, so let's go to the nearby beach to pick up shells." ”
Hu Xin was a little unhappy and said, "Take us there if you have the chance, neither my child nor I have ever been to the island." ”
Helpless, Mo Xiaomei could only promise to take her to the island to catch the sea the next day.
At dinner in the evening, Hu Xin looked at a large table of seafood and was so crazy that he sandwiched it for the two children, and he didn't eat a few bites.
The mother-in-law asked her politely: "Xiaohu, how can you clip it to the child, you can eat some yourself, and there are many more." ”
Hu Xin complained a little and said: "I don't like to eat these very much, I like to eat blue crabs and I don't like to eat flower crabs." And my kid's favorite abalone doesn't have either. ”
The mother-in-law replied a little embarrassed: "Well, I don't know what you like to eat, next time I ask your uncle to buy some blue crab and abalone." ”
Mo Xiaomei didn't feel good when she heard it, isn't this nearly 2,000 yuan of seafood enough, the child is obviously very happy to eat, and the blue crab and abalone are so expensive and dare to say that it is really not a shame to come here to play as a guest.
The next day, I went to catch the sea, and I made an appointment with my sister-in-law to go to the port to take a boat before one o'clock, because the low tide after half past one is the best opportunity to catch the sea. But before leaving, Hu Xin began to do sunscreen work, and finally waited until two o'clock before setting off.
The boat fare for six people is usually about 500, but the sister-in-law did not accept Mo Xiaomei's money, saying that it was a family not to be polite.
The sister-in-law repeatedly excused herself, and Mo Xiaomei couldn't stuff money anymore.
Because I went a little late, there were already other people on the island catching the sea, and the tide was rising soon. A few children definitely couldn't help much, and the two adults didn't get anything in the end, only a few catties of spicy snails and some cat's eye snails.
Hu Xin was very angry when he saw others returning with a full load: "No matter what the hell, you can't pick up good things, and these broken snails have nothing to eat." ”
Mo Xiaomei said: "Okay, okay, my sister-in-law asked us to come a little, you rub it to two o'clock, of course you can't pick up good things." It's like taking a child to experience life. ”
Two days later, Mo Xiaomei was ready to go back to work in the hospital. Before returning, Hu Xin also asked Mo Xiaomei's mother-in-law and father-in-law to help her buy some blue crabs and abalone to bring back.
The two old men got up at six o'clock and bought her a thousand yuan, and by the way, they also bought some dry goods as gifts for her, such as dried squid and scallops.
Mo Xiaomei thought that Hu Xin would at least give the money for blue crab and abalone to her parents-in-law, but she didn't expect that Hu Xin didn't mention it until she got home.
Mo Xiaomei was also embarrassed to ask, and finally took out 1,500 to her parents-in-law, saying that it was given by Hu Xin.
Later, on the National Day, Hu Xin wanted to take his son and niece with him. At that time, Mo Xiaomei didn't want to take her, because her husband also had a holiday, and this time she could go home as a family of four, and she couldn't sit down at all if she took Hu Xin with her.
Mo Xiaomei rejected her: "I can't take you this time." I add my husband and children, and there are four people. ”
Unexpectedly, Hu Xin still came to her house, and Mo Xiaomei was very unhappy when she saw her coming uninvited. Hu Xin saw her and said, "Eh, the two children are very young, just squeeze it." ”
Mo Xiaomei said: "If the overload is seen, my husband will be fined." ”
Hu Xin smiled and said: "How can you be photographed, it's not so unlucky, believe me." ”
Mo Xiaomei muttered in a low voice: "Hmph, believe you, will you give us money if we are fined?"I'm speechless".
She complained to her husband, who was cleaning up in the room: "I said I couldn't take it." She's still here, how can we go back, isn't it embarrassing?”
At this time, the 10-year-old son took the initiative to ask: "Mom, I'm not going." You can take my sister home, and my classmates and I will go to the museum and borrow his house. ”
My husband said, "Since you can't get rid of it, let's decide so." ”
In the end, Mo Xiaomei gave her son 500 yuan, and told him to be polite to his classmates and spend some money to invite his classmates to eat KFC, so that he could go back with confidence.
When I returned to my hometown this time, my parents-in-law still entertained Hu Xin very warmly, and always remembered that she liked to eat blue crab and abalone, and spent a lot of money to buy them.
Father-in-law and mother-in-law have always been simple and honest people, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law didn't feel anything, but Mo Xiaomei always felt that she was at a loss. But she had to come along, there was no way, she had to swallow this breath.
This time she also wanted to go to the island to catch the sea, but Mo Xiaomei didn't want to trouble her brother and sister-in-law anymore, so she just lied to her and said that her brother and sister-in-law were not free, and she would talk about it later. This time, I took her to the free beach to dig for clams.
Later, when he went home, Hu Xin said: "The dry goods that your mother-in-law bought for me last time were delicious, and I finished them in a few days when I went home." Let your parents-in-law buy me some more. ”
Mo Xiaomei didn't want her parents-in-law to suffer, she said: "They are not available, I will take you there, it is very close." ”
When I arrived at the market, because Mo Xiaomei was a local, it could be cheaper, and in the end, Mo Xiaomei helped pay for it, which was 326 yuan in total.
In the car, Mo Xiaomei saw that she didn't take the initiative to transfer money, so she said to her: "You remember to transfer it to me later, 326 yuan, you just give me 325." ”
Hu Xin said: "Okay, I'll give it to you when you get out of the car, now the child is holding my mobile phone." ”
Two days later, Mo Xiaomei swiped the circle of friends she posted, and the family was watching TV in the living room. Thinking that she hadn't given the money yet, she still decided to pull down her cheeks and ask, she sent a message: "Hu Xin, you haven't given me the money for the last dry goods yet." ”
Hu Xin replied in seconds: "I forgot." I'll be free for you later, but I'm not available now. ”
Mo Xiaomei threw down her phone angrily, she was not free, she was obviously watching TV, and she didn't want to give a few yuan to transfer an account.
Facts have proved that Mo Xiaomei's guess was right, a week has passed, and Hu Xin still hasn't transferred it.
Sleeping at night, Mo Xiaomei couldn't fall asleep thinking about it over and over again.
Her husband asked her, "What's the matter with you?"Insomnia. ”
Mo Xiaomei said helplessly: "I get angry when I think of Hu Xin always taking advantage of me. Twice followed me home, and the gas and highway tolls didn't give me a penny. Last time, my parents kindly greeted her and bought her blue crab and abalone, but she didn't give her any money, this time I bought her dry goods, and she didn't give me more than 200 yuan, and I didn't give it after asking twice, and I was so angry. ”
The husband comforted him: "Who asked you to make friends without polishing your eyes, since she didn't give it, then don't take her next time." ”
Hu Xin felt that she couldn't just forget it, it was too much of a loss, and she would definitely follow next time.
A few days before the Dragon Boat Festival, Hu Xin said that he would go back to his hometown to pick some lychees during the Dragon Boat Festival.
Mo Xiaomei said: "Then I'll go too, you take me with you." ”
Hu Xin excused himself: "There's nothing fun over there, it's all mountains, it's better to go to your side, you better spend the holiday at home." ”
Mo Xiaomei didn't speak, but she didn't care, she had to go this time.
So during the Dragon Boat Festival, she took her son and daughter to Hu Xin's house to wait, and also put schoolbags on her two children. Hu Xin was still a little embarrassed to see the three of them, but he was embarrassed to refuse Mo Xiaomei.
Hu Xin's hometown is not very far, more than 100 kilometers, and he will arrive soon. People here grow a lot of lychees and mangoes, and during this time, lychees have just come to market, and they are very expensive.
When she arrived at Hu Xin's hometown, she saw the free-range chickens eating rice in the yard, and she also praised Hu Xin's mother-in-law for raising them well.
The old man didn't praise and showed off to Mo Xiaomei: "My free-range chickens all eat rice, don't eat feed, they are specially raised and sold, and they can still lay eggs." ”
Mo Xiaomei said unceremoniously: "In this way, today's Dragon Boat Festival, then Auntie, you can kill a chicken tonight to taste it." Last time Hu Xin ate seafood at my house, this time you invited me. ”
Hu Xin's mother-in-law listened for a while before she spoke: "In this way, let's kill one." ”
Hu Xin was a little speechless when he heard Mo Xiaomei's words, but the words were all said for this part, if you don't kill, you have to kill.
The day before they went home, they went to the mountain to pick lychees, and Hu Xin's house planted lychees halfway up the hillside, as well as several large mangs, which were yellow and cancan, and drooled when they looked at them.
When he went to the mountain, Hu Xin gave Mo Xiaomei a bag, and Mo Xiaomei said, "This is too small, I don't want it." We brought our own bags. ”
After speaking, he took out four snakeskin bags from the schoolbags of his son and daughter. Mo Xiaomei took out the snakeskin bag and said, "We can use this, we won't be polite." ”
Hu Xin saw four bags that were so big, and his face changed. Mo Xiaomei looked at her and suddenly felt a little funny, but she didn't dare to laugh out loud.
Hu Xin was very embarrassed, and pretended to be very calm and asked, "How can you carry such a big bag down the mountain?"”
Mo Xiaomei said: "You don't have to worry about this, I asked your father-in-law before I came, and I will call your father-in-law to pick it up later." Then he took the two children to pick the fruit.
Mo Xiaomei picked a total of three bags of lychees and one bag of mangoes, and she also picked the big ones full. Hu Xin looked distressed when he watched from the side, and he was angry and couldn't say.
The four bags of fruit were full, and it was another day of full receipts, Mo Xiaomei carried the bags of fruits onto Hu Xin's father-in-law's tractor.
Hu Xin and his father-in-law's faces were not good-looking at all, and they didn't have a smiling face. After all, this is what they planted and sold, and Mo Xiaomei picked a few sacks of fruit, they must feel at a loss.
But Mo Xiaomei looked at them with a very proud face, she just wanted to deliberately anger Hu Xin. To be honest, these fruits are not as valuable as seafood, Mo Xiaomei is just angry with Hu Xin's attitude of doing things.
Before leaving, Mo Xiaomei also took away dozens of native eggs on the stove, and Hu Xin hurriedly stopped her: "Ah, don't take my mother-in-law's eggs, she still has to sell them." ”
Mo Xiaomei hugged the basket tightly and didn't let go: "The chickens will still give birth." Last time, my parents-in-law also bought you a lot of seafood, so I can't take some eggs, right?Explain it to your mother-in-law yourself. ”
Hu Xin gritted his teeth in anger when he heard this, and he could only endure it and not get angry. On the way home, she didn't talk to Mo Xiaomei, and Mo Xiaomei was eating lychees while brushing **, not to mention how happy she was.
So this Dragon Boat Festival, Mo Xiaomei wanted to follow Hu Xin home, that is, she pretended to ask, she knew that Hu Xin would definitely not take her there, and Mo Xiaomei had taught her a lesson before, and Hu Xin himself had counted it, because after this incident, Hu Xin never took the initiative to follow Mo Xiaomei back to his hometown.
In the hospital, Hu Xin was not very willing to associate with Mo Xiaomei. But Mo Xiaomei doesn't care, she is not a friend worth befriending, everyone is estranged but happy.
