Chapter Seventy-Two: Patriarchy
After all, the fourth aunt has also been in the capital for some time before, and it is rare to go back to the capital once, and it is inevitable to go out for a walk, and some old friends and classmates in the past should also say hello, otherwise the relationship will be estranged.
When the family was playing chess just now, Zhou Fan didn't see the fourth aunt's family, and the fourth aunt's family came back from outside, so Zhou Fan had time to look at the fourth aunt's family.
Speaking of which, the fourth aunt and uncle will go back to Beijing every year to pay New Year's greetings to the old man, even if they don't usually see each other, but they can still see each other during the New Year, but the two children of the fourth aunt's family, Zhou Fan has not seen each other for many years, and the two children are growing up, and the changes this year are quite big, not to mention that they haven't seen each other for so many years.
The daughter of the fourth aunt should be quite naughty and mischievous in Zhou Fan's impression, when she came to the capital when she was a child, she always liked to follow Zhou Fan and tie a ponytail, Zhou Fan always liked to pull other people's pigtails.
The daughter of the fourth aunt didn't see too much similarity with the fourth aunt when she was a child, but when she grew up, she was a little similar to the fourth aunt, she looked clear and delicate, and she didn't talk much when she stood next to the fourth aunt, and she was quiet and quiet, it seemed to be a little different from the naughty appearance when she was a child, and her faint eyes showed a little loneliness, could it be that the fourth aunt's family didn't want to see this daughter? After all, Zhou Fan has long known that the concept of patriarchy in the fourth uncle's family is really heavy.
The boy of the fourth aunt's family is much more reckless, just now I saw Zhang Jindong and Zhou Huan playing chess, this kid came up and messed up the chessboard, because this matter was also reprimanded by the old man, the faces of the fourth aunt and the fourth uncle are inevitably a little not good-looking, I can only open my mouth to reprimand the child a few words, it is not painful, and the words can be seen to love this kid, no wonder the other party dares to be fearless, and dares to be so presumptuous in front of the old man.
If the younger generations of the Zhou family always feel high about the old man, then the kid of the fourth aunt's family obviously doesn't have this concept, and because he has been living in the south and has always been pampered, he hasn't experienced the majesty of the old man, isn't it that he was reprimanded by the old man, and he still muttered in his heart that this old man hates it.
It's one thing to say that children are naughty and mischievous, but these things also have to be divided into occasions, losing their temper and throwing things in front of the old man, in the eyes of everyone, it is undoubtedly that the fourth aunt and the fourth uncle did not educate the children well, otherwise how could they raise such a stinky temper.
It's not that he just saw Zhou Fan take an orange, this little guy is clamoring for it, obviously there are a lot of plates, but people like Zhou Fan's hand, and I don't know what the difference between the orange in Zhou Fan's hand and the one on the plate, it seems to be robbing something with others, this kid is proud.
Seeing her son messing around, the fourth aunt opened her mouth and reprimanded: "What are you messing around, it's my brother's thing, what are you robbing." ”
For Zhou Fan's nephew's spleen surname, the fourth aunt also knows something, don't look at how old she is, but don't expect people to be polite and polite to her younger brothers and sisters, not to mention that her son is messing around here, according to Zhou Fan's temper, it is also possible to beat this kid violently.
"Sister-in-law, Yongqing is still young, and I, the elder brother, should let the younger brother too." Zhou Fan said with a smile.
The fourth aunt's surname is Lu, and the child has a name called Lu Yongqing, and I don't know what it means, but it's not because of the birth of this kid, the fourth aunt's family will celebrate forever, if that's the case
The fourth aunt and the fourth uncle are really ...... to this kid, as for the fourth aunt's daughter, she is called Lu Bingqin, a very poetic name, much better than Lu Yongqing.
The fourth aunt was obviously slightly stunned for a moment, and when she saw Zhou Fanzhen handing the oranges in her hand to Lu Yongqing, the fourth aunt said with a smile: "Zhou Fan, I'm really embarrassed, this kid is used to messing around at home, don't be angry." ”
While the fourth aunt was talking, she took an orange from the plate and gave it to Zhou Fan, which was regarded as an apology to Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan took the orange with a smile and was about to peel it to eat, when he saw Lu Bingqin licking his lips on the side, looking like a little gluttonous cat.
Zhou Fan greeted with a smile: "Come, let's give you food, at grandpa's house, you can take whatever you want to eat, you don't have to see too much." ”
This little girl is a little too quiet, and her surname is introverted, but she looks submissive, which is completely different from the Lu Bingqin in Zhou Fan's memory, this girl was very naughty when she was a child.
"Thank you, Brother Zhou Fan." The other party carefully took the orange and said thank you, this Zhou Fan's brother reminded Zhou Fan of some memories of his childhood.
"Okay, what's polite to me." Zhou Fan wanted to reach out and touch the other party's head, but when he stretched out his hand, he took it back.
Now this little girl has grown up, although she has not yet been sincere, but she has begun to have femininity, and it is not as casual as in the past, but after so many years, this little girl still likes to comb a ponytail, but this has not changed.
robbed Zhou Fan of the oranges, Lu Yongqing didn't make any more trouble, and took care of peeling oranges there to eat, but after seeing Zhou Fan handing Lu Bingqin oranges, the little guy stretched out his hand and pointed at Lu Bingqin and shouted: "Dead girl, who let you eat." ”
When he said this, the family's attention was focused on this side, not that the faces of the fourth aunt and the fourth aunt's family were unusually ugly, and they wanted to stop Lu Yongqing, but the little guy would have already snatched the orange from Lu Bingqin's hand.
Zhou Fan frowned slightly, Lu Yongqing's series of actions are quite skillful, it seems that this is not the first time this thing has been done, and then look at Lu Bingqin's depressed expression, but the little girl has no idea of resisting her brother's misdeeds, and she is used to it.
Zhou Fan glanced at the fourth uncle slightly, to say that the fourth uncle's family has some small business, and it stands to reason that there is no shortage of money, is it possible that this family is disgusted with their daughter to such an extent, this patriarchal thinking is really too serious, and it is no wonder that the little girl who was very lively and active when she was a child is now cowardly and cowardly.
was stared at by the family, especially under the gaze of the grandfather, the faces of the fourth aunt and the fourth uncle were unusually ugly, and they stretched out their hands to hit Lu Yongqing twice, and then said embarrassedly: "This kid likes to mess around." ”
The people here are not human spirits, how can the appearance of the fourth aunt's family escape the eyes of Zhou Fan and others, to say that this patriarchal thinking is naturally indispensable, but it will not be biased like this, this seems to be a little sick, no wonder when Zhou Fan looked at Lu Bingqin just now, he found that the other party's face was not very good-looking, it seems that the two couples of the fourth aunt and his wife usually take little care of this woman.
