Chapter 1733 Domineering Huang Ling, Xiaozhuang Being PUA
It's here!
Zhou Chen, who had just eaten, suddenly felt refreshed.
I said that with so many people gathered together, how could it be really peaceful? This is not the style over there.
As expected, the entrance banquet was almost over, and it finally came. It was really long-awaited!
After coming to this world and becoming a member of the Zhuang family, Zhou Chen felt that he must have been infected by the blood of this family, and he became abnormal.
Who would expect his entrance banquet to be noisy?
The two tables of people, those who had finished eating and those who had not, heard the words of Zhuang's father and grandmother, and stopped eating at this time, and each of them had different expressions.
Zhuang Xiaoting's face turned pale, and she grabbed Huang Ling's arm with one hand and called her mother, but she only moved her lips and did not make any sound.
Xiang Pengfei's father was very surprised. He only knew that his elder brother and sister-in-law asked Pengfei to live there, but he didn't hear that Zhendong and Zhenbei were also asked to live there. What did his father-in-law and mother-in-law mean?
Zhuang Ganmei and his wife were looking forward to it. They were eager for their two sons to live in the house of their eldest brother and sister-in-law. Not only could they eat and drink at their eldest brother and sister-in-law's house, but they could also have their eldest brother tutor them for free. This was much more comfortable than staying at home and having them worry about it.
As for whether their eldest brother would be dedicated, they were not worried at all, because they all knew Zhuang Chaoying's personality and he would not do such a thing as bullying his nephew.
As outsiders, Lin Wufeng and Song Ying looked at each other in bewilderment. They heard clearly when the Zhuang family quarreled last year. They did not expect that after a year, the old things would be brought up again. It was indeed a good feast.
Zhuang Chaoying was quite repulsive in his heart. Just when he saw Huang Ling's warning eyes sweeping over and Zhou Chen's strange expression, his heart was even more shocked.
So he said with a stiff upper lip: "Dad, Mom, didn't you say that only Pengfei would go there? Why are Zhendong and Zhenbei going to our place too? If they go, there will not be enough room. Aren't they living well at home?"
Zhuang's father was immediately unhappy when he heard it.
"Big brother, how can you be so selfish? You are the eldest brother of the Zhuang family. It is your responsibility to take care of your younger brothers and sisters. Now Zhendong and Zhenbei have reached the most important time in their studies. They need you, the uncle, to help them with their studies. It is a matter of convenience for you. Don't you want to sacrifice a little for the family?"
Zhuang Chaoying hurriedly explained: "Dad, it's not that I don't want to sacrifice. For the sake of the family, I can certainly sacrifice, but there is really no room at home."
Grandma Zhuang said: "There is room. You and Aling sleep in the small house, Pengfei and Zhendong and Zhenbei sleep in the big house, and Xiaoting sleeps in the attic. It is just enough to sleep."
"But Xiaoting is a girl, and she is so old. It's so inconvenient."
"What's inconvenient? We are all family. Okay, okay, let Xiaoting live with us, we will help you..."
Grandma Zhuang pretended to be impatient and was about to ask Zhuang Xiaoting to go over, but suddenly
"Hmm?"
With a snort, Grandma Zhuang's expression suddenly changed, and she looked at Zhou Chen reflexively. Suddenly, she realized that the last time she said that, Zhou Chen seemed to have rebuked them once.
"Ahem, Xiaoting probably won't be used to living here, so let Pengfei live with us. I'll help Hualin take good care of him."
Originally, Zhuang Xiaoting was nervous, but when Grandma Zhuang changed her tone, the nervous person became Xiang Pengfei.
Xiang Pengfei stood up excitedly: "No, I want to live with my uncle and aunt."
Xiang Pengfei's father Xiangdong's face suddenly became very ugly. When he sent Pengfei here last year, Grandma Zhuang and Grandma Zhuang were unwilling to take him in. Now they want to take him in, but he knows that they are not kind-hearted, but want to take advantage.
Even if he has never seen these two old people, he has heard Zhuang Hualin say it countless times. He is not stupid and does not believe them at all. If Pengfei really lives with them, he may suffer.
"Mom, this is not good. Before coming here, Hualin told me that he had agreed with my sister-in-law and brother that Pengfei would stay with them temporarily. Let's not let Pengfei disturb you two old people."
Grandma Zhuang pretended to be generous and said, "It's okay, Xiangdong, Pengfei is our grandson, we will definitely take good care of him, so it's settled, big brother?"
"This?"
Zhuang Chaoying actually hesitated. Of course, he didn't want to go against his parents, and it seemed that his parents' arrangement was not impossible.
Let Zhendong Zhenbei go over, and they can sleep in the inner room like Tunan and Tuxi. They and Xiaoting will remain unchanged, and there will be no impact.
And to be honest, compared to Xiang Pengfei, he is closer to Zhendong Zhenbei, who he has watched grow up since childhood.
When Xiang Pengfei saw that his uncle was actually hesitating and considering, he immediately became anxious. He was a smart man and knew who to look for at this time.
"Aunt, brother Tuxi."
Even Xiangdong looked at Huang Ling with a look of help, because he really had no way out and no say.
Zhuang Chaoying now knew who was in charge at home. It was useless for him to agree. Huang Ling had to nod her head, so he coughed and asked.
"A Ling, I think this suggestion from my parents is quite good. If Zhendong and Zhenbei come over, I can tutor them, just like I tutored Tunan and... before. Xiaoting will not be affected. What do you think?"
Huang Ling said calmly: "I think the best thing is for you to move to your father and grandmother's house. This will make it more convenient to tutor Zhendong and Zhenbei's homework. Pengfei will live with me. This is what I promised Hualin, and I can't break my promise."
Zhou Chen was the first to applaud and agree: "I think this proposal is the best, it kills two birds with one stone, not only does it satisfy your purpose of tutoring Zhendong and Zhenbei, but it also fulfills the promise to aunt, so is it decided?"
Xiang Dong and Xiang Pengfei, the father and son, showed joy on their faces, but did not say anything, as long as they knew that Huang Ling was on their side, they should not talk about other family conflicts.
But Zhuang Chaoying's face was ugly, and the old couple of the Zhuang family and the Zhuang Ganmei couple also had gloomy faces.
Before Zhuang Chaoying could speak, Zhuang Ganmei's wife shouted without thinking: "How can that be possible, sister-in-law? We only have two rooms at home. We don't have enough for ourselves. Where will big brother live?"
"You can sleep on the dining table. Hualin has been sleeping like this since he was a child, right, Chaoying? If Hualin can do it, you can definitely do it too. After all, it's for Zhendong Zhenbei's homework. What's wrong with making a little sacrifice, right?"
Huang Ling said it with a smile, but it sounded cold, especially for Zhuang Chaoying, who felt even more stuffy.
Zhou Chen once again said: "I think it's okay. After all, my father is the one who likes to sacrifice the most. He has been used to sacrificing since he was a child. For Zhendong Zhenbei, it's definitely okay to sacrifice a little more."
"Bang."
Zhuang Chaoying slapped the table. He didn't dare to get angry with Huang Ling, but Zhou Chen's weirdness was really unbearable for him.
"I'm talking to your mother. Is it your turn to interrupt?"
But Huang Ling's reaction was more intense than his. She picked up the chopsticks and slammed them on the table.
"Zhuang Chaoying, why are you yelling at my son? He is my son. He has a share of my house. He has the right to interrupt."
After saying that, she spoke coldly, regardless of the ugly expressions of Zhuang Chaoying and Zhuang's father.
"Dad, Mom, if you are just celebrating Tunan and Tuxi today and holding this graduation banquet, I am naturally grateful. But if you want to use this incident to make other plans, don't blame me for saying ugly things in advance. I can do anything."
Zhou Chen secretly raised his thumbs. Seeing Huang Ling's strong attitude, he was actually very happy.
After all, he will leave Suzhou to go to college soon, and it is impossible for him to take care of his family all the time. At this time, Huang Ling, who is not protected by him, must be tough in order not to be bullied by the people from the Zhuang family. Now this state is very good.
Father Zhuang angrily scolded: "Huang Ling, what's your attitude? We are just discussing with you, are you going to eat us?"
This book has been recently updated in ##六x-on:x-on:九x-on:x-on:x-on:书x-on:x-on:吧!! Update!
Grandma Zhuang also turned around and showed a kind attitude, holding Huang Ling's hand.
"A Ling, don't be angry, you misunderstood us, we..."
Huang Ling shook her hand away without any courtesy.
"Mom, you know whether I have misunderstood or not. I really couldn't understand it before. After so many years, how could you still plot against our family? But now I understand. It's because you have taken advantage of Chaoying's "filial piety"; since he is filial, I will give him a chance. I will let Chaoying live with you in the future, be filial to you, and tutor Zhendong and Zhenbei. You don't have to worry about Xiaoting and Pengfei."
"We have almost finished this graduation banquet. I have to thank my parents for the banquet. I have to go back to pack Tunan and Tuxi's things for college, so I won't sit down."
She stood up directly and pretended to leave. Zhuang Xiaoting didn't care about the wontons she hadn't finished, and stood up as well.
"Mom, I'll go back with you."
Zhou Chen also stood up, as did Lin Dongzhe and Xiang Pengfei. Lin Wufeng and Song Ying at another table were also not slow, and they all stood up and left.
In a blink of an eye, half of the people at the two tables had left, leaving only the old couple of the Zhuang family, Zhuang Ganmei's family, Zhuang Chaoying and Zhuang Tunan, and Xiangdong.
Xiangdong was really fidgeting at this time. After hesitating for a few seconds, he still stood up.
"Dad, Mom, I'm going to see Pengfei."
In a blink of an eye, most of the people had left, which made Zhuang's father angry and picked up the teacup on the table and wanted to smash it, but before he could smash it, he suddenly realized that this was a restaurant, not the old family's house, and he had to pay for smashing the teacup, so he could only slam it on the table in frustration.
"Boss, look at your wife, is this how you act as a man? You are useless, you make me so angry, how could I give birth to such a useless thing like you, who can't even control a woman."
Zhuang Chaoying's face, which was already a little dark, turned black and red. His eldest son and two nephews were there, and it was in a public place like a restaurant near the cotton mill. It was really embarrassing to be scolded by his father.
But he had been PUA'd by his parents all his life, and he would never resist. Even if he was scolded badly, he didn't dare to talk back, but just lowered his head and kept silent.
Seeing him like this, Zhuang Adi became even more angry. He thought that today, while he was happy, Zhuang Chaoying would help him, and he could settle this matter.
Who would have thought that the happiness was ruined by Zhou Chen, and the matter was denied by Huang Ling. This mother and son are simply the nemesis of their family, one is more unfilial than the other.
He didn't think it was their fault, but just pushed all the responsibility onto Zhuang Chaoying. It was because the eldest brother was useless that it became like this.
Zhuang Tunan regretted it a little. If he had known, he would have left with everyone just now. Now it's not right to leave, and it's not right not to leave.
In fact, he also felt that his father and grandmother were a little too much, but he also felt that his mother's reaction was too extreme. Even if he wanted to refuse, he didn't need to make the situation so embarrassing. After all, they were a family and could talk nicely.
He implemented an idea, that is, a harmonious family is the best, and it's okay to suffer a little loss, as long as it's not too much.
But he didn't understand at all that he was not the one who suffered, so he could stand and talk without any pain.
He was still protected too well by Huang Ling. Zhuang Chaoying was foolishly filial, and he was not much better than Zhuang Chaoying. The only thing that was better than Zhuang Chaoying was that he had a mother who loved him as much as herself, and was born in a better era. Otherwise, if this continued, his fate would not be much better than Zhuang Chaoying.
"Dad, does the eldest brother really want to live with us to tutor Zhendong and Zhenbei? We can't live there at all." Zhuang Ganmei's wife suddenly asked in a low voice.
In an instant, everyone looked at her with strange eyes, and Zhuang's father stood up angrily.
"Go home."
When leaving, she left angrily without even saying hello to Zhuang Chaoying and Zhuang Tunan. Zhuang Ganmei's family also left quickly, as if they were afraid of being a little slow, and Zhuang Chaoying really followed them.
Grandma Zhuang stayed for a while, paid the bill with great pain, and then looked at Zhuang Chaoying with a disappointed and 'pity' expression.
"Big brother, today we are celebrating for the two children with good intentions, but we didn't expect it to turn out like this. Forget it, go back and think about it carefully. As elders, how can we have any selfish motives? We are all for the whole family. Go back and talk to A Ling. Don't let this matter make you quarrel with her again."
Zhuang Chaoying was deeply moved by the sudden concern. He choked up and said, "Mom, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for you. You are right. It's not good for yourself. It's really good for the whole family."
Grandma Zhuang patted Zhuang Chaoying's hand and sighed, "It's good that you understand. As elders, we are all for the children. Your father doesn't really blame you. He is just angry that A Ling bullied you like this. No matter what, you are a man and the head of the family. How can a wife treat her husband like this?"
"No more, I'm leaving. Tu Nan, my eldest grandson, go to Shanghai to study hard and help your father more in the future. Your father has suffered."
Disappointed and sighed, he staggered away.
Zhuang Tunan looked at his father who was silent beside him, not knowing how to persuade him, and in the end he said nothing.
