Four Hundred and Sixty-Two, Run, Queen Mother Liang!
"If you have something to talk about slowly, you won't make a fuss about severing the relationship right away."
It was still late summer, and the weather in Hong Kong City was neither hot nor cold. After getting up, grandma turned on the incandescent lamp in the main room, picked up the kettle and started making tea. Grandpa lit a dry cigarette "bah, bah" to learn about the actual situation of his daughter's late-night visit.
Liang Meijuan shook her head: "I don't want to talk about it now. Brother, sister-in-law, they will be here soon."
"Did you call them too?" Grandpa asked.
"I originally wanted to go directly to their house to discuss the matter, but Lao Chen was worried about something happening, so he suggested that we discuss it here and you guys be the referee."
Liang Meijuan said stiffly.
Grandpa nodded. He naturally knew his daughter's temper. Fortunately, his son-in-law had a gentler personality and knew how to use strategies when encountering problems.
"But what makes the third child so angry?"
Grandpa was speculating in his mind.
At this time, grandma came over with two cups of tea. She also sat beside her silently, looking at her daughter for a while and her son-in-law for a while.
Not long after, there was the sound of walking outside the door. My uncle and aunt also lived in the countryside, only a 5-minute walk away from my grandpa's house.
The night in the countryside is very quiet, so you can still hear the voice of your aunt complaining: "Liang Meijuan is so crazy in the middle of the night. Is there something that I can't talk about tomorrow..."
However, after the two of them entered the door, they found Liang Meijuan with a cold face, and the aunt immediately shut her mouth and stopped talking.
Now that everyone is here, Liang Meijuan finally begins to tell the reason.
"I called Chen Hansheng this evening. Actually, my intention was to ask about Xiao Hai's situation."
Liang Meijuan glanced at her aunt: "Chen Hansheng is in the university anyway. There is a cafeteria and a dormitory. Actually, I don't need to worry too much. On the contrary, I don't know what's wrong with Liang Xiaohai, and he won't join Rocket 101."
No one doubted this, Liang Xiaohai was Liang Meijuan's nephew, and it was normal for an aunt to care about her nephew.
"It was at this time that Lao Chen and I learned that Rocket 101 had gone bankrupt a few days ago."
Liang Meijuan's face was filled with sad emotions: "Han Sheng had too strong a sense of independence when he was a child.
We didn’t know about Rocket 101 when it was founded, and we didn’t know when it collapsed. In short, he was just doing it all by himself. "
Grandpa, grandma, uncle and aunt looked at each other in shock after hearing this.
The influence of Rocket 101 has always been in domestic universities, but it is rare in daily life, let alone in the countryside. So they only know that Chen Hansheng started a business, and the benefits were pretty good when reported on TV. It became the pride of the family for a time. .
I didn't expect it to go bankrupt so soon, but my aunt was also wondering what this matter had to do with her.
"I heard that the company went bankrupt, so I asked him if he had any debts. In fact, from my perspective, studying hard is much more practical than starting a business. If there are foreign debts, Lao Chen and I will help pay them off, and he also Be able to concentrate on studying.”
Liang Meijuan continued: "Chen Hansheng said there was no difficulty and praised Liang Xiaohai and his girlfriend for being very enthusiastic."
Liang Meijuan paused here. Her aunt didn't realize it at first. Liang Xiaohai should be single, but then she thought about it. This girlfriend should be a girl from another province who received a "100,000 yuan" gift.
"Then, why are they so enthusiastic?"
The uncle listened to it completely as a story and urged his sister to continue telling it.
"they said."
Liang Meijuan almost gritted her teeth and said, "If Han Sheng wants to borrow money, but he is hungry because he has no food to eat, he can go to the factory to find them. It's okay to give him a few meals."
The hall fell silent instantly, and everyone immediately understood what was going on. These words were too harsh.
"Lao Chen and I are not dead yet."
Liang Meijuan became emotional: "What do they mean, if Lao Chen and I are alive, we can make Chen Hansheng go begging for food?"
The uncle's expression was sarcastic, and the aunt glared at him fiercely. He was just looking for trouble, and you still asked stupidly.
It was quiet for a while. Grandpa knocked on the pipe and said slowly: "Maybe Xiaohai also wanted to help, but the meaning he expressed was different. He stopped studying after graduating from junior high school. His personality Ye Zhi is far inferior to Han Sheng in speaking."
"Yes, yes, maybe the child said the wrong thing."
Grandpa didn't say anything, and my aunt didn't say anything even though she knew she was in the wrong. When grandpa spoke, she quickly echoed: "Besides, we haven't acknowledged that girlfriend either. Liang Xiaohai will definitely not marry her."
"that's all?"
When Liang Meijuan heard her grandfather's explanation, she suddenly became quiet and looked at her father blankly.
Chen Zhaojun thought that his wife was going to be angry. He was about to comfort her when Liang Meijuan burst into tears.
Lao Chen was panicked and distressed, and quickly helped his wife wipe her tears. Liang Meijuan pushed her husband's hands away, wiped them dry herself and said: "I have not been loved since I was a child, but I admit it. Who let me have two brothers above me? There is also a Yaomei below, and the one who doesn’t care about her is the least concerned, I understand all this."
"My family used to be poor, and we finally killed a chicken during the Chinese New Year. I gave two legs to my brother and the chicken wings to my fourth brother. I could only eat a chicken foot. You also deliberately said that eating chicken feet will help you stand up straight and walk far in the future... ····”
Chen Zhaojun felt that Liang Meijuan was going further and further, and he was worried that the matter would get bigger and bigger. He couldn't help but remind him: "Why are you talking about this? There is no need to mention the past things again."
"No, I have to mention it."
Liang Meijuan simply broke the pot and said: "I'll be a little angry myself, but why should my son be treated unfairly?"
In fact, this situation is also common. The poorer the family in Northern Jiangsu, the more sons are favored over daughters. Liang Meijuan is still a girl in the middle, so naturally she does not receive attention.
In the future, as the average quality of the people improves, this tradition will change.
For example, Xiao Hongwei and Lu Yuqing, two regular college students, have no such thoughts at all. Lao Xiao really cares about Xiao Rongyu, and "Princess Xiao" is a real title.
"Okay, you said you can run far by eating chicken feet, so I'll keep my head down and run as hard as I can."
Liang Meijuan fell into memories: "After I graduated from high school, while working in a state-owned cotton spinning factory, I insisted on going to night school. After I got my diploma, the Personnel Bureau happened to be recruiting people, so I signed up. Sister Sun, who was in charge, saw that I was more diligent. Just give me one of the remaining positions from the related households."
"So, I ran from the countryside to the city, where I met Lao Chen in the Personnel Bureau."
Liang Meijuan glanced at Chen Zhaojun, and the expression on her face became gentler: "Later, I also gave birth to a son. Although he was not obedient at all and often made me angry, but I only have such a son."
"I can figure out those things in the past by myself, but why does Chen Hansheng still have to suffer from such cowardice?"
Liang Meijuan asked: "After Lao Chen and I got married, although we moved from the countryside to the city, our family affairs did not stop at all."
"Did I, Liang Meijuan, ever need money to buy cigarettes during the holidays?"
"After all these years, Lao Chen and I have recommended any relatives in the family who need help?"
"Liang Xiaohai went on a blind date, Chen Hansheng came back from school hundreds of kilometers away, and a few lines of Chinese smoke were scattered. Did we care about it?"
······
Every time Liang Meijuan said something, the other people in the room would lose their heads. Liang Meijuan and Lao Chen belong to a family that is making great efforts in the middle and late stages.
When they were young, their conditions were very average. However, after Chen Han was promoted to junior high school, their material conditions became more and more relaxed, and some relatives went to the city to do business and were able to provide help.
At the end of the sentence, Liang Meijuan slammed the table: "It's not like you don't know Chen Hansheng's bad temper. If someone else said it this way, would Liang Xiaohai be able to get through this without a few slaps in the face?"
"Liang Meijuan, please be careful what you say. What do you mean Liang Xiaohai is going to be slapped? Who dares to move and try?"
Although the aunt was angry that her son was too stupid, she could not tolerate talking about her son in this way.
Down below, the two sisters started to quarrel with each other as usual. Chen Zhaojun rubbed his temples helplessly. He was a little suspicious of his wife's motives.
Chen Hansheng's incident was just an introduction. Liang Meijuan seemed to want to tell all the grievances she had suffered over the years.
"However, I still support it!"
Chen Zhaojun smoked a cigarette with an honest face, but in his heart he thought that if his son was wronged, I would speak out for him, and if my wife was wronged, I would support my wife.
We, Old Chen, don’t give in to anyone!
