Chapter 159: Relatives
Xinxin tilted her head and snorted softly, the expression on her face a little resentful. From the day she got married, Xinxin took Mu Nan's family as her own family under the guidance of her parents and treated them honestly. Whether it is financially or emotionally, I give it wholeheartedly. At that time, she naively thought: If she treats others like this, others will treat her like this. But in the past few months that her mother-in-law has been here, the truth has hit her in the face like a loud slap, which has made her heart change unconsciously. At this moment, she couldn't greet Mu Nan's brother and sister like her brother as before, but secretly said in her heart: "That's your brother and sister, but for me, I've only met a few times, and it's different from outsiders, and the difference is limited." But this time she finally kept her mouth shut, and did not slip out of her heart, and when the words came out, they became: "Yes, yes, you are right." However, it is also true that our family is small. It's not always appropriate to let your own brother and sister sleep on the floor. ”
Mu Nan listened to it and said disapprenously: "It's just three people, how can you squeeze it." ”
Xinxin looked at him with a smile and said, "Just three people? Are you sure? Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, brother-in-law and children don't come? ”
"Hmm...... Just three people. Mu Nan replied obviously with a little weakness.
Xinxin looked at Mu Nan and said noncommittally: "You better go and ask your parents how many people are here first." And he took no more care of him.
Generally speaking, the custom of Mu Nan's hometown, strings of relatives like to go with the whole family, and at least one child must be brought. Relatives like older brothers and sisters who travel farther distances and are closer to each other are more likely to come with the whole family. Although the number of visits to Mu Nan's hometown is limited, Xinxin still has some understanding of their family's way of doing things. Especially after her mother-in-law came, she had a deeper and more sober understanding of this kind of family action. She didn't believe that there would only be three people in Mu Nan's house. If the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was harmonious in the past, of course this was nothing, and at that time she did treat Mu Nan's relatives as her relatives. If someone comes to the house, she will try every means to make them eat well, live well, and play well. Of course. At that time, she didn't like people living in the house. But she will find a hotel in advance that is in good condition and close to home, so that no one can pick anything that is not coming. In short, it is to earn enough face for Mu Nan. Can ...... now Mother-in-law's calculations and Mu Nan's confusion made Xinxin's feelings for his family plummet. She was no longer in any mood or motivated to entertain them. And as Xinxin blurted out just now, who knows if this is another ploy of her mother-in-law. Think about how much more guò people put pressure on themselves? Therefore, she made up her mind that she couldn't let Mu Nan's brothers and sisters come this time.
Mu Nan also saw Xinxin's coldness this time, he naturally hoped that his brothers and sisters would come over and reunite with everyone. But at present, the relationship between Xinxin and her mother-in-law is relatively tense, and more things are better than less, and he doesn't want to make the family unpeaceful because of this kind of thing. So, he decided to go to his parents to verify how many people were going to come before making a plan. If there were really only three people here, then Xinxin would be able to talk there. But when he went to ask his mother, his mother-in-law told him happily: "Naturally, everyone comes, your eldest brother, sister-in-law, second brother-in-law, sister-in-law, brother-in-law, and children from various families." It's been a long time since we've been together as a family. This time it's so lively. Your dad and I also miss our grandchildren at home, so I just brought them all this time. Let our baby also meet his relatives, don't treat the uncle of grandma's house as a relative all day long. We're a serious family. ”
Mu Nan was a little silent when he heard this. Six adults, six and a half years old, the family really can't live there. The father-in-law saw his son's hesitation, so he asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Mu Nan said: "There are a lot of people, I'm afraid I won't be able to live for miles." ”
The father-in-law smiled: "What are you afraid of?" Isn't it okay to squeeze it? It's really not good, you can sleep on the floor. Our house has a wooden floor, which is no worse than a bed. ”
The mother-in-law also said: "Your father and I took your brother's two little ones to sleep, and they were loose and fast." Your big bed is two meters, and your father and I can sleep with a child on the one-meter-two bed at home. When they come, let your sister take the two children to sleep with Xinxin. You can also help her take care of the children. You and other people are laying on the ground, and Xinxin's mother has given her so many quilts and mattresses to marry, and it just so happens that they all come in handy this time. ”
Mu Nan was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help but say, "My sister's eldest son is in his teens. It's inconvenient for them to sleep together. ”
The mother-in-law rolled her eyes and said, "What's inconvenient?" And not an outsider! You forgot, when you were fourteen or fifteen, you slept in a bunk with your sister and brother. ”
Mu Nan said with some contempt: "Isn't that poor at home!" Besides, we are brothers and sisters......"
The mother-in-law puffed up her mouth and said, "Your sister's child is not your own?" That's a dear nephew! The child is easy to take when she is older, you don't have to take care of it at night, your sister can help Xinxin take care of the child, I am thinking about her. ”
Mu Nan was silent for a while before asking again: "That...... How long are they going to stay? ”
The mother-in-law grinned: "It's finally here." Why can't you live for ten and a half days? ”
Mu Nan said: "The children don't go to school anymore? My sister is no longer at work? ”
The mother-in-law was stunned when she heard this: "This...... Others are easy to say, but I'm afraid that your sister will be in charge of it in school. Why don't you wait until the summer vacation to let them come? Just stay longer. ”
Mu Nan hurriedly said: "Forget it, let's come now." Big deal to stay two days less. ”
The mother-in-law puffed out her eyes and said, "What's the matter?" You don't want them to stay longer? Did Xinxin tell you something again? You kid, why are your ears so soft? That's your brother and sister, nephew, and nephew! You will be separated from them in two sentences! You can't learn from those who have no conscience, and if you go high, you won't be able to look down on poor relatives! ”
After listening to her mother-in-law's words, her father-in-law's face also pulled down. What a normal thing it is to string up relatives! Having a child is a happy event, and it should be brought to the big guys. It is already their only son who takes care of Xinxin to mention this matter until now, but Xinxin is still doing this, which is indeed excessive.
"You really can't be your daughter-in-law's master?" The father-in-law couldn't help but speak.
Mu Nan was suddenly a little embarrassed: "That's not it." But you always have to discuss things with her at home, don't you? ”
The father-in-law glared and said, "Why can't she let her?" ”
Mu Nan bowed his head and said, "Let's discuss." ”
The mother-in-law was so angry that she turned around and threw out a sentence: "No gas!" ”
Mu Nan didn't answer, took the opportunity to deviate his body, and went out of the door. His parents' words made him feel very uncomfortable. But this matter is really not a joke, if he doesn't talk to Xinxin first, he is really afraid of making some trouble. (To be continued.) )
