The person in front of him is his father, Zhang Shouzhong.

For so many years, she felt that she was most sorry for her father, and the conflict between herself and the Zhang family was, to put it bluntly, a dispute between her brothers and sisters, and had nothing to do with this old man. But because of that incident at that time, she had a lot less time to go home to see her father, first, she had to do a lot of work to support Chai Jun to grow up, and second, she didn't want to go home to see a few brothers and sisters, for fear of quarrels.

The old man with gray sideburns on the opposite side was also silent at this time, looking at Zhang Cuiqin in front of him for a long time.

However, in this somewhat grim atmosphere, Zhang Lianyu's somewhat yin and yang voice also sounded: "Little sister, I didn't say you, you were the most favored one at home, but after so many years, you are also the one who has gone home the least, alas, you don't know, Dad misses you so much." ”

Her words were a bit provocative, deliberately highlighting the fact that Zhang Cuiqin hadn't gone home to see the old man for so many years, but she didn't point out the premise - Zhang Qiusheng broke with her on behalf of the Zhang family many years ago.

Chai Jun looked at his nose and nose, and naturally heard that Zhang Lianyu's words were a bit gunpowder, but after all, he didn't say much on this occasion.

Zhang Shuncai, who was next to him, couldn't help glaring at Zhang Lianyu and said: "So many years have passed, there are all right and wrong, what else do you mention!"

was scolded by Zhang Shuncai like this, Zhang Lianyu couldn't wipe her face, and couldn't help but say: "It's been so many years, it's true that my father has suffered, this can——"

However, before she finished speaking, Zhang Shouzhong interrupted: "Okay! On this happy day, you can also give me a little rest." ”

was scolded by his father so much, both of them obediently shut up and didn't say more. And Zhang Shouzhong sighed, his eyes fell on Zhang Cuiqin's body, and murmured: "Qin, it's good to be back? It's good to be back! It's good to be back." ”

What happened back then, who was right and who was wrong, this old man had a scale in his heart, and naturally knew who was responsible, Zhang Cuiqin was not wrong, but right and wrong were not the norms of his behavior. Because in the countryside, the older generation lives on their sons, and Zhang Cuiqin married out, so it stands to reason that he is not a member of his own family, so he turned a blind eye to the things of the year, did not mix much, but watched their brothers and sisters make trouble by themselves.

But in his heart, he still cares about missing Zhang Cuiqin.

Listening to her father's simple words and tone, Zhang Cuiqin's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and she couldn't help it anymore: "Dad!"

"Okay, okay, don't cry, it's unlucky. The old man patted Zhang Cuiqin's hand and said.

At this time, his gaze couldn't help but turn eagerly, fell on Chai Jun, a smile appeared on his dry cheeks, and said, "Xiaojun, you have grown so big, come, let me see the old man." ”

Chai Jun obediently stepped forward and called, "Grandpa." ”

When he said these two words, his heart was also throbbing with a strange heart. For many years, he hadn't shouted these two words, and now he shouted them for a while, it seemed so strange, but so familiar.

"Hey, hey. Zhang Shouzhong touched Chai Jun's head and carefully examined the corners of his face, as if he was caressing a delicate and fragile porcelain.

Most of the people next to him, including Zhang Shuncai and Zhang Dahai, were looking at this scene with a relieved face, because in their eyes, such a scene announced that the grievances and knots that had lasted for so long had been resolved.

It's just that Zhang Lianyu, but there was a look of disdain on her face, and the corners of her mouth twitched, as if she wanted to say something, but she was finally pressed back.

At this time, the door was pushed open, and a young man with combed hair walked in, looking at the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Yo? Sister-in-law, you're here too?"

Zhang Cuiqin looked at the young man, couldn't help pausing for a second, and then said in surprise: "Xiao Hao?"

Isn't this person Zhang Qiusheng's son Zhang Hao? After meeting him once, she almost didn't recognize him after seeing him for so many years.

Chai Jun also turned his head to look at his cousin Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao in front of him is really the same style as his father, he is wearing a bright and beautiful pair, with his hands in his pockets, a pair of shiny leather shoes on his feet, and his hair does not know how much hairspray he has put on, which looks very eye-catching here.

"Xiao Hao is here, find a place to sit, where is your father?" Zhang Lianyu saw Zhang Hao, she seemed very close, and asked questions.

Zhang Hao didn't shirk, sat directly on the sofa, and then put a gift box in his hand on the table, and then said:

"My dad is too busy, there is something to deal with in the company, and he can't come, so I came on behalf of our family. ”

"O... Okay, it's good that you're here. Zhang Lianyu then said.

At this time, Li Shu also walked down from the kang, took the gift box brought by Zhang Hao, and couldn't help laughing: "Xiao Hao, you said you can come, what else do you bring, this 'brain gold' is not cheap, I have seen it on TV!"

Li Shu belongs to the type of person who sees money, and said with a smile while holding the gift box in his hand.

Although she still has a grudge against Chai Jun for not lending her money at the beginning, but before this banquet, Zhang Qiusheng told him several times, especially since Zhang Qiusheng came back from Xiangyangtun last time, he seems to be a lot tougher, and she used to let her call the shots, but now she obviously has a temper, and he has the final say in many things.

So Li Shu didn't show any bad attitude towards Chai Jun's family this time, she thought that when people came to participate in the banquet, they would definitely give red envelopes, and they were here to send money, so there was no need for her to touch her head again.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Lianyu's eyes couldn't help but fall on the two gift boxes that Zhang Cuiqin was carrying, and couldn't help but say: "Ouch, look at our old hats, I didn't remember to bring some Lilly, it's really rude." ”

Zhang Shuncai laughed: "You don't have to be polite, I originally wanted to take the opportunity of Xiaohua's marriage to get together and bring any gifts." ”

Zhang Lianyu continued: "Yo, little sister, you also brought a gift box, what did you bring?"

Li Shu also leaned over and took it curiously, and she didn't have anything else in her heart, so she thought about collecting money.

Zhang Cuiqin smiled and said, "I didn't bring anything else, I brought a few catties of eggs, and some vegetables from our Xiangyangtun specialty." ”

When Li Shu heard this, she couldn't help but be disappointed, in her opinion, things like eggs and vegetables were not worth a few dollars, and the price of the 'brain gold' brand supplements brought by Zhang Hao was much different.

Zhang Lianyu couldn't help but shake her head and said, "Oh, Xiaohao didn't say you, why did you come to your relative's house with such a valuable gift? That box of brain gold is probably more than a hundred, there is no need to spend so much, like your sister-in-law, just bring some special eggs and vegetables." ”

Although she said this without leakage, there was actually something in her words. The implication is that the eggs and vegetables brought by Zhang Cuiqin are worth a few dollars, but the gift box brought by Zhang Hao's family is more than a hundred.

But most of the people present were simple peasant families, and basically none of them could hear her words, but Zhang Hong and Chai Jun frowned slightly, as if they tasted Zhang Lianyu's sour taste.

Especially Chai Jun, the opinion of this aunt in his heart suddenly dropped a notch, it seems that this woman has always had a kind of hostility towards her family, and what is even more disgusting is that she does not express it directly, but fanned the flames on some trivial things, this kind of behavior is the most disgusting.

After she finished speaking, Zhang Hao also seemed to be extremely interested in these words, and replied with a smile: "This box of brain gold cost me two hundred and twenty-five yuan, but my father said that today Xiaohua has a birthday, and our family naturally can't be stingy." ”

"Tsk, Qiusheng, this person, it's true, spending so much money on health care products. Zhang Lianyu said in a weird way, and at the same time, her eyes couldn't help but sweep over Zhang Cuiqin.

However, at this time, Zhang Hong couldn't sit still, and said directly: "Those gift boxes brought by Aunt Cuiqin are also worth a lot of money!"

Zhang Lianyu couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Xiaohong, you have been in the society for a short time, and you haven't reached the time to run a family and live, so you have no concept of money! Buy some eggs and vegetables, it won't cost much!"

A hint of disgust appeared on Zhang Hong's face, but it was quickly cleverly hidden by her.

She is not a fool, she has been dealing with this big family and relatives for so many years, she can see who is good and who is bad, she has never had a good impression of this aunt, she always feels that she is worse than that Li Shu, Li Shu is just greedy for money and has a bad brain, but this aunt always feels like a clown who jumps and often fanned the flames.

In her heart, the most hated among her relatives is the arrogant and sophisticated uncle Zhang Qiusheng, and the second is this aunt Zhang Lianyu.

Zhang Hong stabilized his mind, and then said without giving in: "Auntie, I'm afraid you don't know much about our vegetable and fruit products in Xiangyangtun, right? I can tell you that the price of this box of vegetables we brought is definitely not lower than that brain gold." ”

Zhang Lianyu seemed to feel the 'impulsiveness' in Zhang Hong's words, seeing that she seemed to be talking back to herself, her eyes slanted slightly, and then she said with a smile: "Xiaohong, don't be kidding, this box of vegetables can be sold for more than two hundred yuan? ”

Zhang Hao also glanced at Zhang Hong with disdain, and said: "Xiaohong, I heard my father say that you insisted on working in Xiangyangtun at the beginning, and you couldn't pull it back, why did you stay there for a year, this is nothing else, and your ability to brag has become so powerful?"

When Zhang Qiusheng went to Xiangyangtun to bring Zhang Hong back, he had already heard what his father said, and when Zhang Qiusheng talked to him at home, he said that Zhang Hong was funny, so he chose to stay and work in such a small village, which made him very disappointed.

This emotion also infected Zhang Hao. Although he has known this cousin since he was a child, he can be regarded as a big play, but because of his father's relationship, he is not very cold to her.

And taking a step back, his father is now the owner of a shoe factory, and his family lives in a high-end community in the city, and his living standard is not at the same level as this group of relatives living in the village, which makes him feel a sense of superiority in his heart, feeling that his family is superior to these people.

So when he spoke, he didn't scruple anything.

Hearing Zhang Hao talk about himself so directly, Zhang Hong couldn't help but glare, and then said: "I think you are too one-sided, you go out now to inquire about how much Xiangyangtun's vegetables and fruits cost a catty, let me tell you, this box of vegetables and fruits will cost three hundred yuan to say the least!"

After Zhang Hao and Zhang Lianyu heard this, they couldn't help but chuckle and shook their heads slightly, Zhang Hao was even more disdainful in his heart, feeling that this cousin was really the same as what his father said, and his head was funny. A box of vegetables and fruits can go up to 300 yuan?

Zhang Hong looked at the two of them with a look of disdain, and couldn't help but stomp his feet in a hurry, then turned his head to look at Chai Jun and said, "Brother Jun, you told them, didn't you?"
