The atmosphere in the room dropped to freezing point, and everyone remained silent.
A few cubs didn't expect to encounter such a situation when they first came to my uncle's house. You don't know what to do when you look at me.
Xiaodoubao was sad to see the big brother who gave him winter melon candy. He took care of sharing it with them. He hadn't eaten it yet. mouth: "Big brother, you eat this, it's sweet~~~"
Dabao wiped away his tears, reached out to take it, and whispered, "Thank you."
Xiaodoubao ran back and tugged at Xiaobao's clothes again: "Brother Xiaobao, gloves~~~"
Only then did Xiaobao remember that his mother gave him Brother Dabao's gloves and let him bring them to Brother Dabao.
Xiaobao handed it to Xiaodoubao, Xiaodoubao put on his own, ran back to Dabao, and handed him his gloves: "Big brother, the gloves given by aunt, we all have~~~"
Xiaodoubao squinted his eyes and showed Dabao his gloves.
Dabao took it, still wiped his tears and said thank you in a low voice. He originally had a pair. Later, grandma said that Da Niu was younger than him and was more afraid of cold. He was the big brother and should let the younger brother, so he gave it to Da Niu, and he took it. there is none left.
When Liang Hongmei saw the children's interaction, her tears flowed even more fiercely. Even a stingy person like Zhang Chunying won't forget Dabao's share when she gets good things. What has she been doing all these years? It's not that she doesn't want to give it, it's just that every time she returns to Sujia Village with something, her mother cuts her off before she even reaches the gate, so most of the time they go back empty-handed.
Her father is an old worker of a food processing factory. The worker dormitory is such a big place. She can't hide even if she wants to. If the trouble is too ugly, she can't look up and see her. Tolerance, it led to today's situation.
Xiaodoubao broke the silence, Su Xiaoxiao thought for a while and said: "Brother and sister-in-law, it's actually a good thing to spread it out today, sister-in-law, you should be very clear about my parents, you give them something, they are happy If you don't give it to them, you won't care what you want. My parents always think that as long as you can live well in your small family, they can still work and support themselves, and they don't need your care for the time being.
But sister-in-law, you are our family member when you marry into our family. It is understandable to take care of your mother's family. I will think of my mother when I eat good food, but you can't let your mother's family vacate your entire home. Who can survive? My brother and you are classmates, and there is a rare free love between you. He loves you and is afraid that you have been embarrassed for so many years, but have you ever thought about him? Is it true that our family members have to make trouble like your mother? "
Sister-in-law doesn't look like such a confused person, how could she live her life like this?
If she hadn't come today, she wouldn't have known that her eldest brother's life was so bad. Every time he came home with a smile, and his appearance was gentle and polite, everyone thought he was living a good life in the city. Her parents knew how sad they were to live like this.
Liang Hongmei hugged Da Bao and wept silently: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't know why this happened."
From campus to marriage, although many years of relationships have been worn away by Liang Hongmei's family in recent years, it really does not mean that it can be broken up. Su Zhenzhong wants to save this family, and he must clearly let Liang Hongmei know his attitude and attitude. When it comes to the bottom line:
"From now on, I will be the head of the family, and I will also distribute the family's income and materials uniformly. I will give you a lot of courtesy for the New Year and festivals. Don't think about taking the rest. If you agree, we will continue. If you don't agree, then get a divorce, and I will take Dabao back to Sujia Village, and your family loves to toss and toss."
It's not that Su Zhenzhong didn't want to take care of it, but he did take the initiative to want to have a good relationship with Liang Hongmei at the beginning. As Hongmei Niang said, Liang Hongmei, a good girl with a town hukou, would marry him, what would she think? Wasn't it because he really liked him?
In order to marry him back then, Liang Hongmei fought against her family for a long time. Later, she should have promised her mother some conditions, such as how much salary she would be paid each month. Board, so she has always turned a blind eye, and she can live on, but she didn't expect her mother's family to become so serious that she wanted to evacuate their house, even if they had a candy in the house, she wanted to take her back. The level of home.
Su Zhenzhong felt that he had an inescapable responsibility for causing the situation today. The family belonged to the two of them. From the beginning, he should not condone without bottom line. This is not for Liang Hongmei's good, but to destroy their family and their relationship. Feelings.
What does Liang Hongmei disagree with? In order to marry Su Zhenzhong, she promised her mother that she would take at least half of her salary and bills back to her mother's house to subsidize her family. Otherwise, her mother would not have promised her to marry Su Zhenzhong. He said that the family couldn't open the pot, and then he said that his brother's two children wanted to add something, and then he said that his brother wanted to marry a daughter-in-law, and he would make trouble if he didn't give her mother. See, as soon as she made trouble with Liang Hongmei, she was worried that everyone would know that it would not affect her and Su Zhenzhong well, and she had become a complete brother-in-law without knowing it.
Liang Hongmei actually breathed a sigh of relief. In retrospect, her husband and her husband's family had silently tolerated her for so many years. If she hadn't been beaten by her sister-in-law and her husband today, she didn't know how long it would have lasted. How could she not be tired of seeing no end like this? day? As my sister-in-law said, these things are easier to handle when they are spread out.
"Zhenzhong, in the future, this family will listen to you, and my salary will be given to you. Anyway, we have already reached this point, and we are not afraid of losing face. If my mother makes trouble again, let her make trouble. If it doesn't work, we will go back to Sujia Village. , the big deal is to get up early every day and go to work." A divorce made Liang Hongmei completely sober, no matter how embarrassed it was, it was still a divorce, and in the end, her divorce from Su Zhenzhong was the most embarrassing situation.
Her father is still working in a food factory, and her mother does not dare to go to the factory to make trouble. Her good brother, brother and sister-in-law need to save face.
Su Zhenzhong said, "I will not go back to Sujia Village to live."
Unless he really gets to the point of divorce, he can lose face, but if his mother-in-law goes to the village, he doesn't want his parents to be pointed at by others. How will they behave in the village then?
Su Zhenzhong turned to look at Su Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, it's embarrassing to say this, I don't want my parents to know, lest they worry."
Su Xiaoxiao is the same as him. He has always reported good news but not bad news, so that everyone in Sujia Village, including Su Xiaoxiao, thought he was a popular drinker in the city. , a family of three huddled on a bed less than 1.5 meters, and looking at the dilapidated furniture at home, apart from not having to face the loess and back to the sky, the so-called urban life is far less comfortable than in Sujia Village.
Su Xiaoxiao said: "Don't worry, eldest brother, I know that there is something wrong with you about eldest brother. As a husband, you have the responsibility and obligation to remind sister-in-law that you should not blame the sister-in-law too much. Well, you can manage your own small family well in the future. , just live your own little life well, my parents are still waiting for us to go back for the New Year, so hurry up and clean up and let us go home."
Su Zhenzhong and his wife packed their things silently, while Su Xiaoxiao did the ideological work for the children: "Don't tell the adults about today's affairs when you get home, okay? Because if the adults in the family know that Dabao's grandmother is so bad, they will People in the village who are worried about Uncle, Aunt and Dabao will also say right and wrong. I hope this matter will end here and become a secret between us, and even Comrade Han Cheng will not let him know, okay?"
Han Cheng didn't know when he arrived at the door with a bag in his hand. He just heard this sentence and asked, "Why don't you let me know?"
The children looked at the door in unison, and said in unison, "Secret!"
Su Zhenzhong stopped his movements to greet him: "Hancheng is here."
Han Cheng nodded: "Big brother and sister-in-law."
Liang Hongmei's mood has recovered a lot, and she greeted Han Cheng to sit down and poured him a cup of tea.
Su Xiaoxiao raised her little pear vortex to look at Han Cheng, Han Cheng's eyes softened, he sat down beside her, and opened the things he brought: "The winter melon candy from the supply and marketing agency is good, so I bought some, and you can try it too."
The cubs once again said in unison in surprise: "Winter melon candy?"
The rice ball gave a thumbs up to Hancheng: "Dad, you are great!"
Han Cheng looked at Su Xiaoxiao, who didn't say a word: "What's wrong?"
Su Xiaoxiao felt that their family really had a heart-to-heart connection: "The children like to eat winter melon candy. I just said that I want to buy some before going back, and you will buy it back. They are naturally happy."
The cubs still wanted to eat, but Su Xiaoxiao stopped him: "I have eaten enough today, don't eat any more, save it and eat it slowly."
Although the cubs were greedy, they obediently stopped eating after listening to their mother.
"Dad, have you bought firecrackers?" Rice Ball asked.
Han Cheng nodded: "I bought it, and there are fireworks."
Hearing what Han Cheng said, the cubs were very excited, so they were looking forward to celebrating the New Year earlier.
After Su Zhenzhong and his wife packed up, they brought out the New Year's goods that Hongmei Niang was afraid of looting and hiding in the cabinet.
Hong Meiniang stared at Su Zhenzhong's husband and wife's hand in front of the corridor of her unit with sharp eyes. It was originally her family's New Year's gift.
After returning to Sujia Village just after noon, Su Zhenzhong said before that he would work overtime at the end of the year, and the Dabao family hadn't come back for a full month.
"Mother, I didn't buy anything. Here are the sugar, cakes, bacon and sausages from the factory, as well as some money tickets and meat tickets. You can buy them." If he hadn't made a fuss today, these Things can't be kept.
Especially when he saw the stunned expression on Li Yufeng's face, Su Zhenzhong was shocked to realize how failed his son was. He was clearly on the list in a food factory. In previous years, he was able to make a pound of cake and a pound of sugar and not come back empty-handed. Yes, it was the first time he brought home so many New Year's goods.
Li Yufeng didn't notice his son's strangeness, and said directly: "So many things to send this year? Did you send some to your in-laws?"
This sentence made Liang Hongmei's eyes instantly turn red. They are both parents, so why is there such a big gap?
Su Zhenhua also said: "Yes, brother, didn't you just distribute biscuits and sugar in the factory in the past? Why is there still sausage and bacon this year?"
Su Zhenzhong and his wife were too embarrassed to speak, Su Xiaoxiao put her arms around her mother's shoulder and smoothed out: "Oh, mother-in-law, the New Year's gift has already been given to my sister-in-law's family, and the elder brother and sister-in-law bring it back and you can take it, so why are there so many problems? Can I have dinner? I'm going to be hungry."
The cubs also helped cheer: "Yeah, grandma/grandma, we're all hungry!"
Li Yufeng was so fooled by them that he forgot to ask Su Zhenzhong what was going on just now: "Okay, let's have dinner right away, Xiaoxiao Dad ordered tofu, we'll have fat head fish stewed tofu today."
The cubs are drooling: "Wow, good!"
