Chapter 46 46 Relatives
Chapter 46 46. My relatives
After Sun Yanyan muttered, she finally remembered the business: "Dad, Mom asked you to buy a pot of oil and go home. I'll help you look after the store first, and you can pick up the child by the way."
Her daughter Song Ziyi is currently in the first class of kindergarten, but today, Saturday, she went to a nearby interest class to learn how to play chess.
Song Dafang was furious - raising children and daughters was a debt!
They raised a son and a daughter, but now the old couple has not enjoyed the blessings even at their age.
Not only do I have to support my son and his family of three, but I also have to pay school fees for my granddaughter, pick her up and drop her off, cook, wash dishes and clothes...
No, the shrewd daughter-in-law refuses to pay a penny herself every day, and has to wait for him to buy a barrel of oil.
It’s really the life of an old slave!
He felt deep resentment in his heart, but when he went to the door of the interest class carrying the oil drum, he met his granddaughter. The little girl ran over happily with a big bow on her head, and her voice was bright and sweet:
"grandfather!"
"Why!"
Song Dafang instantly forgot the unhappiness he had felt just now, and only felt that he was happy with it.
The family returned to the community behind the store and opened the door. Mao Li, who was cooking in the kitchen, had hurried out while still complaining:
"You old man, I asked you to buy a barrel of oil. You just came back now after you bought it, waiting to be put into the pot!"
While looking at the small basket of vegetables he was carrying, they were fresh, tender and juicy. I couldn't help but wonder: "What did you buy again?"
He brought it over and took a look: "Oh, this milkvetch, I haven't eaten it in decades, it just happened to be a stir-fry at noon."
Song Dafang quickly said: "Tan Tan brought Qiao Qiao here to deliver it this morning. He said he was selling vegetables at the riverside vegetable market during this time."
"What?"
Mao Li was suddenly startled.
"Selling vegetables? Don't Tantan work in Ning Province? Why are you here selling vegetables?"
Sun Yanyan had already changed her shoes and squeezed over. She took a look at the dish and said, "This thing is not valuable. It will not be fresh anymore and it won't taste good. With so much... I can't even give it to my neighbors."
Seeing Song Dafang's expression getting even more ugly, Mao Li knew that he disliked what her daughter-in-law said, so she quickly added: "It's a thoughtful gift. Let's have something fresh for lunch."
Song Dafang snorted coldly and took his granddaughter to watch TV.
And here, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are choosing vegetables together affectionately and chatting:
"Mom, Tantan drove here in a little old pickup truck today. She said she wanted to stay in her hometown to farm, and these vegetables are the leftovers from their sales."
"Oh!" Mao Li really didn't expect it: "She stayed in her hometown to farm? She lives in a girl's family. She stayed in Ningcheng to work and said she had some dignity when she went out to relax. Now that she's back to her hometown, what will she do if she finds a partner in the future?"
"that is."
Sun Yanyan also sighed seriously:
"You said that Tan Tan has a fool brother. It was not easy to get married in the future. Now he has returned to his hometown. Who wants to marry a girl who works in the fields?"
"Oh, I originally said that I recently met a young man who has a house and a car at home. He can work for the whole family, and I was planning to introduce him to her!"
"After all, Tantan is so beautiful, and she looks even better when she comes back this time! Her skin is white and translucent, and she is young. She can't compare to any of the stars I see on TV."
Mao Li also sighed: "Yes, your third uncle's two children are both good-looking."
"If you meet the right person, you have to introduce them as necessary. They are all relatives."
"Let me tell you, it's not easy for their family. You see, when your father was young, he was able to start a business and earn some money in our urban area. Now he has no worries about food and drink."
"As for your uncle and the others, they had to stay in their hometown when they were young. They didn't even pay attention when they gave birth to children. Look at what a good young man Qiao Qiao is, why is he such a fool?"
"They have worked hard all their lives, but their vision is not good enough and their horizons are too narrow. Now they are still staying in their hometown, and the little money in their pockets is probably not even enough for a down payment."
As they talked, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became more and more chatty. Sun Yanyan thought for a while:
"How old is Qiao Qiao this year?"
"Are you eighteen?" Mao Li couldn't remember clearly.
Sun Yanyan pondered for a moment: "Let me tell you, if Qiao Qiao is in this state, he must find a wife as soon as possible. With a wife watching over him, my uncle and the others can go out to work and earn more money, so they don't have to worry about old age in the future. "
"After all, if Qiaoqiao is like this, she can't expect to be able to provide for herself in old age."
"Yes," Mao Li felt that this daughter-in-law really said that she was in love with her:
"I also said before that we have to continue the family line, right? For such a good young man like Qiao Qiao, if he marries a wife and has a grandson, maybe that grandson will be fine?"
"While your third uncle and the others are still young, raise your grandson. Then their family will have someone to rely on in the future."
Song Dafang happened to open the refrigerator to get something. Hearing this, he glared at them:
"What are you talking about? Thirty percent stayed at home to take care of our parents. I don't know how much trouble we saved, but you are still messing around behind the scenes!"
Sun Yanyan curled her lips and did not refute.
But her mother-in-law Mao Li was not happy:
"What are you talking about? We are doing this for his own good. With Qiaoqiao like this, what will they do when they get old and they don't have any grandchildren? You don't have to serve your parents, you have to serve your brothers!"
Song Dafang also glared at her:
"How can you get a wife for Qiaoqiao if he's like this? Besides, if he is born with brain problems, how will they live as a family?"
"this……"
Mao Li was also asked.
Sun Yanyan said quickly: "How can it be so absolute? Marry a wife to take care of him first. Don't look for those smart girls. A silly and honest one can make a living."
"Besides, when it comes to having children, medicine is so advanced now. You can tell if there are any problems during pregnancy. If there are any problems, don't have them."
"Dad, don't be angry. My mom loves you."
"Grandpa and grandma are in their hometown. We will have to spend money and help them in the future. If my uncle lives well, we will also be relaxed."
"If he becomes a burden in the future, then you will definitely not stand idly by."
"Aren't you afraid that you will be burdened by the burden at that time?"
Song Dafang paused for a moment, and finally said nothing. He just closed the refrigerator door and walked back to the living room heavily.
...
When it was noon, his son Song Xuehai came back from work, and the family hurriedly prepared to serve the dishes for dinner.
The green dish on the table seemed to be something he had never seen before, and Song Xuehai couldn't help asking, "What is this?"
"I know, I know!"
Granddaughter Song Ziyi said, "Grandpa said that this was sent by Brother Qiaoqiao."
Song Xuehai laughed at her, "I told you not to call him brother, but uncle."
However, his daughter ignored him and just awkwardly stretched out her chopsticks, "I want to eat the dish sent by Brother Qiaoqiao."
The fresh and tender green vegetables were stir-fried with garlic, and at this moment, a tempting fragrance was exuded on the table.
Song Ziyi took a bite and then couldn't wait to stretch out her chopsticks again:
"The dish brought by Brother Qiaoqiao is so delicious, the best in the world!"
"You kid, how many things have you eaten?" Song Dafang looked at her, and then followed suit with a chopstick.
As soon as it entered the mouth, the taste seemed to be particularly different.
When the family came to their senses, the plate was empty.
Song Ziyi was watching blankly and suddenly burst into tears: "I want to eat more, I'm not full!"
Mao Li quickly cleaned up the dishes: "Don't cry, don't cry, grandma will make it now, there are still a lot."
Sun Yanyan also followed, still unsatisfied: "Mom, why don't you fry the rest, it really tastes good."
After thinking for a while, she said: "How about you go to the riverside market when you buy vegetables tomorrow? It's not right not to take care of our family's business."
This chapter has a lot of words... No more for today.
Are there any monthly tickets?
Give it to your family, don't hide it!
