083. Grandma's house for the New Year

In the blink of an eye, on Chinese New Year's Eve, according to tradition, the three members of He Jin's family will go to their grandmother's house for the New Year, along with their aunt and uncle's family.

He Jin's mother is the eldest daughter of her grandmother, but He Jin is the youngest of her siblings.

However, only his uncle's daughter Zhang Xiaomiao was at his grandmother's house that day, and one of his aunt's two children got married and went to the man's house for the New Year, and there was a cousin named Li Yuedong, who was three years older than He Jin.

My aunt and his mother were helping my grandmother cook Chinese New Year's Eve in the kitchen, and they were complaining that Li Yuedong was disobedient, and he didn't go home all day since college, learning to smoke and drink, and after graduation, he had been fooling around with a group of fox friends and dogs in other places...... There are all kinds of hatred between my aunt's words.

Mother He said: "I told you at the beginning, the child has to be strictly controlled from an early age!" If you don't care about him, he will go the wrong way and learn badly! ”

Auntie: "I also care, but if I say one sentence to him, he can stand up to you ten times, and every sentence can make you angry to death!" It really doesn't matter! ”

Mother He: "You didn't beat him when you were a child, I sue you, the child is beaten up, and the filial son comes out under the stick, and he has to be beaten since he was a child, and he lost his temper, and he was obedient." ”

He Jin felt a chill in his heart, and said in his heart, if this is the so-called filial piety, then how can he hate his mother?

Auntie: "I just can't get that heart, you see that he is used to being wild now...... I guess I won't know when I'm dead! Hey, every time I see your family He Jin, I envy it, Li Yuedong wants He Jin to be half obedient, I can burn high incense! ”

Mother He's voice lowered, and she said with a little sadness: "Isn't this also a lesson I learned from the boss......

The aunt whispered: "It's been so many years, don't think about it after it's passed." ”

…… Does the boss mean his brother? He Jin pricked up his ears, but they didn't say anything, and after a while, He's mother turned the topic to her aunt's daughter, asking her how her married life was going, and if she had children......

He Jin was full of thoughts about his mother's sentence "a lesson from the boss", what did it mean, didn't his brother die of illness?

Before dinner in the evening, grandma took two New Year's red envelopes and asked the master to send them to Zhang Xiaomiao and He Jin.

He Jin took the red envelope, and was asked by his mother to take it away, He Jin is also used to it, and the annual New Year's money is also handed over, but this time it was seen by Zhang Xiaomiao, and she said strangely: "He Jin, do you return the New Year's money to your mother?" ”

He Jin let out a "hmm", never felt that the New Year's money should be his own.

My aunt was stunned when she heard this: "Eldest sister, Ah Jin is so old, are you still in charge of his money?" ”

Mother He said proudly: "That is, He Jin won the scholarship and handed it to me." ”

Zhang Xiaomiao was surprised: "Auntie, it's not right for you to do this, this money should have been given to He Jin by grandma, how can you hide it, you still hide his scholarship?" Then he doesn't have any money himself? ”

Mother He glared at her: "I'm saving for him to buy a house, what does he want to spend, I will naturally give it to him, everything in my life is for him after death, can I still take it to the coffin?" ”

Zhang Xiaomiao glanced at He Jin sympathetically, He's mother was questioned about her authority, and she was a little unhappy in her heart, so she immediately pointed the finger at Zhang Xiaomiao and said: "It's you, haven't you graduated, why do you still take the New Year's money from your grandmother?" ”

Zhang Xiaomiao is one year younger than Li Yuedong, she just graduated from work this year, but she didn't study well since she was a child, she didn't get into college, she only took an art college, so He Jin didn't listen to his mother count this girl at home, it is said that she has not had a serious job since graduation, she sleeps at home until three o'clock in the morning, and only goes out at two or three o'clock, I heard my uncle say that she is a model in the gallery, and she also has her own income, but because she is not 9 to 5 like normal work, so He's mother has always felt that she has a problem.

Zhang Xiaomiao said: "That's grandma hurting me, right, grandma?" ”

He Jin's grandmother responded with a smile, and He Jin's mother said unrelentingly: "Grandma loves you, why are you not sensible?" ”

Zhang Xiaomiao said with a dark face: "Why am I ignorant? I also bought things for my grandmother when I made money! ”

Mother He said: "You should be filial to your grandmother, but it is your fault to take the old man's money even if you already have a job." ”

Zhang Xiaomiao was so angry that she didn't even turn white, and Mother He didn't stop, "And your job, I said, are you stable or not stable now?" Mother He looked at her with her eyes, "I said that you have a good girl's family, you still have to find a stable job, and then take advantage of the capital now to find a down-to-earth man to marry as soon as possible!" ”

Zhang Xiaomiao dropped the chopsticks: "Are you annoyed, what do I like, my parents don't care about me, aren't you tired of caring so much?" ”

Mother He was stunned, and said with a trembling mouth: "You, you...... I'm not doing this for your good! ”

Uncle glared at Zhang Xiaomiao, came out and said, "How can I talk to your aunt." ”

As soon as Mother He saw someone talking for her, her arrogance immediately rose: "That's it, you don't know the rules at a young age, you see that you have pierced your ears and dyed your hair, making you angry, no wonder you can't read well, what kind of model are you still ...... now?"

When my aunt saw that He Jin's mother was talking more and more, she was not happy: "Eldest sister, Xiaomiao is engaged in art work, not what you said." ”

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, a few people at the table hurriedly played a round, and grandma also spoke: "For the New Year, say less and eat." ”

After the meal, the whole family sat around the living room to watch the Spring Festival Gala, He Jin next to Zhang Xiaomiao, and whispered: "Sister, don't take the words my mother said, don't take it to heart, she's like that." ”

Zhang Xiaomiao sneered, and whispered to his side: "How did you survive so many years?" If I want to have such a mother, I can't bear it for a day. ”

He Jin smiled bitterly: "I can't bear it either, but I can't help it, who called her my mother." ”

Zhang Xiaomiao glanced at his mother: "I thought that only you would face her." ”

He Jin also wondered, yes, why didn't even he look to his mother?

He didn't know when he had started to question what she was saying, and even though she had all sorts of reasons to try to convince herself, he didn't approve of her notions anymore...... It may be that his school education, the teachers and classmates he met since he was a child, made him see another world, a relatively objective and correct world, because what he saw and thought, he gradually had the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, so that he would not be completely trapped in that narrow cage.

The program of the Spring Festival Gala is not as good as a year, and after a while, his uncle's family left first, He Jin shrank in the corner of the sofa while sending a message to Yan Huo, and listened to his mother chatting with his aunt without saying a word, and they were talking about a girl who knew each other after three or four layers of relationship.

Auntie: "This child is so filial that he has nothing to say!" I heard that her father had a stroke last year, and the child immediately took a half-year leave, rushed back from school, and stayed by the bedside every day, wiping her father's and urine and washing his feet......"

Mother He: "Where's her mother?" ”

Auntie: "If you die early, it's also pitiful...... But her mother's family is very rich, and she left two houses down, you say that there is no shortage of money, right, change to another girl, hire a nanny and it's over, but that child is so filial, I also heard that she is also very frugal in school, other people's college students live at least 2,000 a month, and she only uses 800! ”

Mother He nodded in approval: "What school does this girl go to, how old is she?" ”

Auntie: "One year older than your family He Jin, because I took half a year off, now I have a level left, and I am still in my third year, but I am a teacher, I came out to be a primary school teacher, I got off work early, and there are winter and summer vacations, the key is that the salaries of teachers are very high now!" ”

Mother He frowned: "One year older......"

Auntie: "It's good to be one year older, girls will hurt people!" ”

The alarm bell in He Jin's brain rang dripping, a year older? Will it hurt? What does it have to do with me?

Mother He: "That's right. ”

The aunt whispered: "If you think it's okay, I'll inquire for you, seeing that your family's He Jin conditions are so good, it is estimated that people are in a hurry to ask for it!" ”

Mother He: "Yes,
