Chapter 47: A Conversation Between Father and Son
Zhou Jiguo was stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect the eldest sister to open her mouth to ask him to borrow money, and he couldn't think of what the eldest sister had to spend money at home.
Zhou Sining looked at him in a daze and didn't speak, and thought that he didn't want to, and felt that he couldn't get off the stage, so he had nothing to say: "Actually, I don't do anything, I just ask, if it's inconvenient, it's okay." ”
Zhou Jiguo knew that his reaction had misunderstood the eldest sister, and he hurriedly wanted to explain a few sentences.
"No, sister, I ......"
"Dabao, are you in the big girl's house, come out, I have something to ask you. ”
At this moment, Zhou Yaosen's voice came from outside.
"Our father is looking for you, you go over quickly, or our mother shouldn't be happy again, I don't have anything here, you just don't say anything to me." Zhou Sining felt a little unbearable on his face. This is the first time in two lives that she has opened her mouth to borrow money, but she hasn't borrowed it yet, why is she also a woman, and she can't get over it on her face.
"Dabao, what are you doing? Come out, I have something to look for you. Zhou Yaosen saw that the big girl's room was not moving, and raised his voice and shouted again.
"Hey, here we are. Zhou Jiguo also shouted outside, then stood up, took out his pocket, took out a wad of money from it, counted out three yuan and stuffed it into Zhou Sining's hand, "Sister, this is three yuan, you take it and use it first, it's not enough to tell me." ”
Zhou Sining passively took the money.
"And this is the bun and seafood I left for you today, I see that you didn't eat too much at night, you can keep it for the night when you are hungry." As he spoke, he took out two oiled paper packets from his other pocket and handed them over, "I don't know what my father is looking for, so I'll go out first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow morning." ”
"Okay......" When Zhou Sining said okay with three yuan and two oiled paper bags, Zhou Jiguo had already walked out of the house.
When she was left alone in the room, she looked at the money and things in her hand and shouted silently.
I didn't expect things to turn around again, thinking that I had to lose face this time, who would have thought that I would borrow an extra five cents in the end, hehehe, now her flashlight has fallen, and her bathhouse has also fallen.
After being happy for a while, she was afraid that she would have a lot of dreams at night, and if Li Rucui suddenly broke in for a while, it would be bad, so she hurriedly hid the three yuan closely. Then I picked up two oil-paper packets and opened them, one was a steamed bun that had been cooled, and the other was a few pieces of white seafood meat, I couldn't tell what kind of seafood it was for the time being, but it didn't matter, as long as it was meat, as long as it could be eaten.
Just when Zhou Sining was cherishing the meat buns and lobster meat in the house, Zhou Yaosen and Zhou Jiguo in the backyard also started a conversation between father and son.
"Dabao, what happened when you went out today? Why did you go home so angry? Zhou Yaosen went back to the house and lay down for a while, the more he thought about it on the bed, the more he felt that something was wrong, the eldest was the most loyal of these children, and he was so angry this time, he didn't even say good things to his mother, this must have been angry outside.
He was a little worried and wanted to know if the child was being bullied outside, so he quickly got up again to find his son to chat.
Zhou Jiguo didn't expect his father to think of it so much, and he couldn't cry or laugh, but he still said: "No, Dad, I'm not angry outside, and I can't offend anyone, who can make me angry." I just watched my mother beat my eldest sister without a head and face, and I felt uncomfortable. My eldest sister is not young, and she is in the grade of looking for her mother-in-law, and my mother still beats her like this, if the people in the village see it, what should I say about my sister?"
"Well, your mother really didn't do the right thing today. Zhou Yaosen thought about his eldest son's words, and nodded his head. It's not that he thinks it's wrong for his mother-in-law to beat the child, but it's so ugly and wrong, the child has done something wrong, you quietly clean up at home and it's over, why do you have to shout and kill so that outsiders know, it's so good-looking!
"And I don't think it's reasonable for my mother to be angry today, our brothers are so old, what's wrong with helping the family do some work at home, is my mother so unrelenting. Besides, what I said at that time was also from my heart, now my mother won't let our brothers do anything, when we all grow up and become a family, the family work is not extended, it is really time for you and my mother to need us to serve, do you think it is really possible to expect your daughter-in-law to serve you? Dad, you think about my mother. Zhou Jiguo presented one of the most favorable evidences.
Zhou Yaosen thought about his son's words, thinking that when his father and mother were sick, his daughter-in-law was pointing at Sang and scolding Huai every day, although he was pressing on the side, but he also knew that in places that he couldn't see, his father and mother did suffer a lot of anger. At that time, he also felt that if his daughter-in-law could serve the old man well, it was estimated that his father and mother would be able to live for a while longer. Thinking that his daughter-in-law was replaced by his daughter-in-law, and he became a sick father in bed, he couldn't help but shiver.
Dabao is right, no one can say what kind of daughter-in-law she is looking for. Of course, everyone wants to marry a daughter-in-law who can run the family, raise children and be filial, but if his son is like him, find a daughter-in-law like his mother-in-law, won't he have to count on his son for the elderly in the future?
"Well, you're right, you're not too young, and you can't all count on your eldest sister for all the work at home, you have to help when you can help. ”
"That's right, that's what I mean, we're not too young, we can't do anything, we make people laugh when we go out, people won't say that you feel sorry for your children, but will say that the men of our old Zhou family are bears, and they can't do anything, and they can't stand up without a woman's house. Zhou Jiguo knows his father better, so a few words poked Zhou Yaosen's heart.
Zhou Yaosen is a very good-looking person, or he can't let his sons go to school. Other people's children go to school for a few days to see that it is not that material, and they go home to farm when they know a few words, only Zhou Yaosen, let the children read everything, and the sons are not allowed to do any work when they go home, that is really cultivated according to the standards of future cadres.
"It's me and your mother who thought wrong, and you all have to work for me when you come back from school in the future. Zhou Yaosen immediately decided to change the training plan of several sons.
"That's it, although Erbao and the others have never worked, I believe that they will learn this soon with their father. ”
"Mmmm, this one must be fine. Zhou Yaosen is still very confident in himself, "But Sibao and Xiaobao are too small, let them go to the ground at such a point, what if they are tired?"
"How is it possible, you are your father and not the queen, they don't do much and do a lot, and let our children work is not to tire them, but to let them all exercise, they can not do those jobs, but they can't do it, Dad, you said it's not true. ”
Zhou Yaosen listened and nodded repeatedly.
"Besides, I see that the eldest sister is busy with these tasks at home all day and night, which is really too hard, or we will start early in the future, pick up the water at home, and water the ground in the backyard, so that the eldest sister can take a breather. There are a lot of us, and this little work is not much for each person, and it will be done in a few minutes. ”
Zhou Yaosen felt that what his son said made sense, and nodded again.
So Zhou Sining became the biggest beneficiary of this conversation.
