Chapter 141: Reunion in the Thirty Years
The Yang family, like Zhao Yongzhong, feels that the karma in the world is too wonderful.
A moment ago, they were huddled in the not very spacious corridor of the tea stall, unable to sleep for a long time because they were worried about their livelihoods. The next moment, they saw the Yang family, who had given them a lot of help, running to hug the old lady Yang and crying bitterly. Before they could figure out the situation, they were surrounded by the enthusiastic Jiang family into the open hall, and Old Lady Yang was even invited to take a seat.
In the bright lights, listening to the articulate Jiang Yue'e tell the story of the past on behalf of the choked Yang, the Yang family felt that everything was like a world away.
After a long time, the old man Yang, who finally understood, couldn't help but cry, and even the Yang family, who had calmed down a little, was once again in a mood. For a while, the father and daughter, who were able to reunite after 30 years, cried with joy, hugged their heads and cried.
After repeated persuasion from the two families, after a long while, the father and daughter gradually stopped their tears.
"Dad, my brother and my brother, they ......" Yang hesitated for a long time, but couldn't help but ask.
At that time, Yang's hometown suffered a once-in-a-century flood, countless people were displaced, and the Yang family of five was forced to flee their hometown.
Not long after, Yang's mother died of postpartum disorder, leaving Yang's infant brother.
At that time, in addition to the father and brother of the Yang family, there was only the little girl of the Yang family. In desperation, she had to take care of her younger brother before she was ready.
Along the way, in order to support his younger brother, Yang went to ask for milk from a woman who was nursing her child. I really couldn't get it, so I chewed the mountain chestnuts I collected and fed them to my younger brother. Even for a period of time, the Yang family fell into a situation of exhaustion and had to gnaw on the bark of the tree, and the Yang family refused to eat his brother's rations, insisting on leaving the opportunity to live to his younger brother.
Then, the Yang family finally escaped from a desperate situation and fled to the relatively wealthy Jinghai County. Who knew that it didn't take long for Yang's younger brother to become seriously ill again. Seeing that my younger brother was not treated, his breath was getting weaker and weaker day by day. His lips were white, and Yang, who loved his brother, took the initiative to sell his body to his father in exchange for money to treat his younger brother, and there was the one thirty years ago.
Even if many years have passed, Yang still remembers the child she desperately raised. At this time. She saw her brother's family, but there was no sign of him, and she knew that most of them were gone. And what about the younger brother? What about my brother's family? Why aren't they any? Didn't my brother live to adulthood? even said that the money she sold back then failed to buy back her brother's life, and her brother was ...... at that time
Seeing his father-in-law's face, he turned blue in an instant. After not answering Yang's words for a long time, Yang's sister-in-law Liao Shi choked up and replied on her behalf: "The child's father has passed away for several years, uncle, he ......."
Old lady Yang interrupted her eldest daughter-in-law and said sadly: "Dead, long dead!" Rong Niang, you should have never been a family with them! ”
Seeing this, Yang Jiuping on the side opened his mouth, and just wanted to say something, but was stopped by Old Lady Yang's stern gaze, so he had to lower his head and say nothing.
Jiang saw Yang and heard the news of the death of two close relatives. Immediately, her face turned pale, and she hurriedly diverted her mother's gaze and said, "Mother, my grandfather is so old, and he has suffered so much outside, but he has to take care of it." At this point, Jiang turned his head to look at He Shi wrapped in the quilt again, and reminded her mother: "My cousin-in-law has just given birth and is still in confinement, so I have to quickly find a warm house for her to raise." You see, it's so late. Let's let my grandfather and them rest quickly! ”
When Yang heard it, he felt that what the eldest girl said was very reasonable.
Just calculated, her father should be sixty-five years old this year, but he looks more than seventy at this time. She was so old that she didn't even recognize her own daughter. Her father has suffered all his life, and in the end he has to endure the grief of a white-haired person sending a black-haired person. Alas, now that her brother and younger brother are gone, let her, a girl, do her filial piety and let her father enjoy the blessings.
Looking at the He family again, although the Yang family has not gotten along with this nephew and daughter-in-law much. I can't talk about any feelings. But although the Yang family has been married for a long time, they still attach great importance to the inheritance of their mother's incense, and the He family just gave birth to the only male member of the Yang family's generation yesterday, and the Yang family will never neglect her.
So Yang wiped his tears with his sleeve, cheered up and ordered: "Yue'e, you will sleep with your father and mother in the next few days, and let the West Chamber out for your grandfather and them to live in." After a few days, your brother-in-law's family will go to the county seat, and the east wing will be empty, so you can move back. ”
Jiang Yue'e couldn't help but hesitate for a moment when she heard this, but soon nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, I'll go back to the West Chamber to clean up, and add a few quilts to the kang." ”
The newly built house of the Jiang family is the same as the structure of the old Zhao family, and the rooms used as bedrooms are the upper landlord's house, the upper west house and the east and west wings. The old man Jiang and his wife lived in the east room, Jiang Hua's family lived in the west room, the west wing room was for Jiang Yue'e to live alone, and the east wing room was lent to Zhao Yongzhong and them to live.
Some people may think it is very strange, didn't the Zhao Siniang sisters babble at the beginning, and always said that they wanted to build a big mansion for their own family that far exceeded the scale of the old Zhao family? It's been a few months, and the house should have been built a long time ago, right? So why are they still living in Jiang's house?
It turned out that Zhao Siniang had really planned to do so, and she even drew the drawings. However, on the eve of the start of construction, Zhao Siniang had the idea of setting up a workshop again, so she waved her pen and directly transformed the original house into a food processing workshop on the selected foundation.
As for her family's new house, she planned to choose a place to build it after the workshop was built, but she dragged Zhao Siniang to give birth to a new idea of going out to the city for development. Considering that even if a new house is built, it will not be able to live in it for a few days a year, so it is better not to build it. Even if you want to come back to visit relatives in the future, you can just live in the Jiang family's house at that time.
So Zhao Yongzhong, who had no housing, and they had been temporarily living in the east wing of the Jiang family, while Zhao Siniang insisted on living alone in the backyard of Zhao's shop, and no one would listen to him.
"Grandma, grandpa's family has six people, why do you have to live in two rooms? Although the east and west wings of our house have become two small rooms, my aunt has always lived in the south house of the west wing, and no one has ever lived in the north room there. Even if the north house is cleaned at this time, it is very damp inside, which is really not suitable for people. In my opinion, it's better to let my grandfather live directly in the East Wing! Anyway, in the past few days, my father and mother have already packed up the things in the east wing, and a few of our family can immediately carry their luggage and live in the workshop for two days, which is very convenient! Zhao Siniang proposed.
The two small rooms in the east wing of the Jiang family are not empty, and there are Zhao Yongzhong and his wife and Zhao Sanniang's sisters and brothers. Compared with the west chamber, the east chamber is indeed more suitable. Especially the Yang family, who are riddled with pain, should indeed live in the East Wing with better lighting.
In fact, Yang also took this into account. She originally planned to wait for Zhao Siniang's family to leave, and then let the Yang family move from the west chamber into the vacant east chamber.
But. That was the plan of Zhao Siniang's family after leaving, and at this moment, the Yang family couldn't open their mouths to let them vacate the East Chamber. After all, you can't drive her son-in-law's family away in order to settle her father, right?
Therefore, even if Zhao Siniang said the above words, Yang still planned to shake his head and refuse.
But. Zhao Siniang didn't give Yang a chance to refuse, and after speaking, she took Jiang and Zhao Sanniang to the East Chamber.
Jiang Yue's momentary hesitation, others may not have noticed, but Zhao Siniang saw it clearly.
Comparing her heart to her heart, if she were herself, Zhao Siniang was unwilling to give up her boudoir and live with some relatives who were not very familiar with her, especially if there was a cousin in the prime of life among those relatives.
Although the people in Jiangjiatan are generally kind, there should be no gossip. Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case. Recently, the Jiang family was thinking about telling Jiang Yue'e a good family affair, and Zhao Siniang, who has always been skeptical of human nature, didn't want anything to go wrong at this critical moment. Therefore, even if she asked her family to move to the workshop to squeeze it, Zhao Siniang had to ensure that Jiang Yue'e's boudoir was not "requisitioned".
"This can't be helped, it can't be helped!" Mrs. Yang looked at her granddaughter's family, who had never met before, and had to move overnight in order to make room for them.
In fact, although Mrs. Yang came all the way to find relatives. But he never thought of coming to his daughter--where did he come to sell his daughter! And in his mind, how good can the daughter-in-law, who is the daughter-in-law of a fisherman, be better? Running to recognize herself with nothing will only affect her and make her embarrassed.
Therefore, Mrs. Yang just harbored infinite guilt. I want to see my daughter again before I die, far away, secretly.
But he never expected that his daughter would live such a good life.
Today, he sat in the tea stall, and heard from the people who came in to rest that the big restaurant next door was opened by her son-in-law and her family. And the duck farm behind the tea stall. The big workshop not far away is also all from her son-in-law's family. What a family business this must be! The daughter's family can have such a capable son-in-law, which is really the creation of the previous life.
However, no matter how good the girl's family is, that is also the ability of the daughter's family, and he, who is a father, has never helped her, so he can't hold her back anymore. Now, in order to arrange a place for his family, he forced away his daughter's son-in-law's family and let them have a split between the two families?
I can't help it, he has already done this kind of thing that can't stand his daughter, and he must not do it again!
Just when Old Lady Yang insisted that he had lived in a mud house in his life, he would be satisfied if he could make a floor in the hall. He couldn't get used to it.
Later, it was Zhao Yongzhong who said a lot of good things stupidly under Zhao Siniang's repeated hints, and only then did he persuade the old man.
Zhao Yongzhong said, it's too tiring to shoot sycophants or something!
But when he found that his mother-in-law's gaze softened a lot when he looked at him, he secretly thought that hard work is hard work, and patting is worth it.
Zhao Yongzhong's temperament is ugly, and he is willing to take a step forward only if others whip him.
However, this time, without waiting for his family to remind him, Zhao Yongzhong took advantage of the time to pick up the goods and took the initiative to consciously invite Dr. Shen back.
Not only for Old Lady Yang, but also for Zhao Yongzhong, who suddenly came to something, asked Dr. Shen to give everyone in the Yang family a careful diagnosis.
As expected, the entire Yang family is in extremely bad physical condition, and even Yang Jiuping, a young man who looks very strong, "may have suffered too much on the road and injured his body." You have to recuperate well for a while, otherwise I'm afraid you will lose your life. Dr. Shen said.
No matter what Dr. Shen said, Zhao Yongzhong, who accompanied him throughout the whole process, nodded like a chicken pecking rice. And Zhao Yongzhong repeatedly emphasized that if you are sick, you have to see it, so that Dr. Shen does not have to worry about the cost of medicine, although he prescribes medicine, he will bear all the cost of medicine.
Zhao Yongzhong will do this, it is undeniable that he has the intention of currying favor with the Yang family, but more importantly, he has always adhered to the belief that dripping water should be repaid by Yongquan, and he wants to repay the Jiang family well.
I think that in order to treat Zhao Siniang, the Jiang family did not hesitate to bankrupt their family, and even took out the last life-saving money. Even if Zhao Siniang didn't spend that money in the end, this kind and loyal Zhao Yongzhong has always remembered it.
Now that the Jiang family's situation is getting better and better day by day, and their own family is moving away again, the grateful Zhao Yongzhong sees that there are fewer and fewer opportunities to repay him, and he is very reluctant to go-even though the Jiang family brought it up by himself, maybe in the eyes of ordinary people, no matter how great the kindness is, it will be repaid. But Zhao Yongzhong doesn't think so, he thinks that the person the Jiang family wants to save is more precious than his life, and it is much more precious, and this kindness is worth remembering for the rest of his life and making up for it in his life.
At this moment, Yang's family appeared in the sky, and Zhao Yongzhong certainly wanted to seize this sudden opportunity.
However, as mentioned earlier, the Jiang family's family is not what it used to be, although there are more patients who need to be treated this time, it will not make his family very difficult, and his family can afford it. Therefore, Mr. Jiang thanked his son-in-law for his kindness and insisted on paying the consultation fee and medicine fee by himself. But Zhao Yongzhong's benevolence and righteousness were remembered by everyone in the Jiang family and the Yang family.
Seeing this, Zhao Siniang couldn't help but give twelve likes to her father's performance today, but at the same time, she slandered in her heart, she had already guessed that her grandfather's family would not let you pay the medical bills! If you really want to pay, can you pay it now that your pockets are empty?
Thinking of this, Zhao Siniang couldn't help frowning slightly.
It's not that I feel sorry for the unjust money that Zhao Yongzhong was taken away by the old Zhao family, but that I am annoyed by the attitude of Old Man Zhao's sudden 180-degree turn.
If the old man Zhao looked so amiable a few days ago for the sake of silver, then in the past two days, he ran to the tofu workshop in the town when he had nothing to do, and what is the purpose of continuing to play the role of a loving father?
That's right, there is a plan - Mr. Zhao, who is unprofitable and can't afford to be early, definitely has a plan, and the plan is not small! (To be continued.) )
