Volume 1 Returning to the Hometown after the Completion of Service Chapter 16, Near-hometown Timidity
Chapter 16, hometown timidity
During the conversation, Changsheng learned that his uncle's family was living a good life, with two sons and a daughter, cousin Wang Jinhu and cousin Wang Yinhu were married and had children, and cousin Wang Jinhua was fifteen years old this year and had hired someone to marry at home. On weekdays, her aunt takes care of the housework, and her grandmother, who is in her sixties, is still alive, so it sounds like this grandmother who has never met loves her very much.
In order to save travel expenses, every few years, her father Zhou Houchun, her mother Zhou Wang's family and her brother Zhou Ansheng took turns to visit her, and then brought back the monthly money she saved to subsidize the family.
The Zhou family includes her a total of five children, her brother Zhou Ansheng is six years older than her, has two sons and a daughter, and a sister Zhou Qiaosheng, who is one year older than her, has married and given birth to three daughters, she has two younger siblings, her two-year-old brother Zhou Liangsheng is dedicated to studying and glorifying his ancestors, has married and given birth to a daughter, and her six-year-old sister Zhou Yusheng has hired someone to marry.
It seems that although the family has a large population, it is not complicated, they are all their own fathers, brothers and nephews, and they have not been favored by her over the years.
It's just that the uncle mentioned the ambiguous attitude of his father and brother, which made Changsheng a little unpredictable, she must find out the situation, and if there is anything wrong, she can plan early, so as not to be caught off guard when she approaches the house.
The two of them watched all the way and bought all the way, Changsheng bought generous gifts for the whole family in large and small bags, and there were silk handkerchiefs for food and special clothing, half to bring to the family, half to be curious, and of course, to get acquainted with the family as soon as possible, she had never seen most of the nominal family.
She understood that her uncle had been driving and soliciting customers for many years, no matter how cold it was, he had to sit in the wind, and it was even colder all the way north from Jinyang, so he couldn't freeze him, so she bought a leather hat, a leather shoulder and leather leggings, and had to let him accept it. She also bought suitable gifts for her grandmother, aunt and other adults and children in her uncle's family. My uncle was reluctant to spend money on her at first, but later saw that she was really thoughtful, so he didn't say anything more when he was moved.
When I returned to the inn in the evening, the excitement calmed down. After a sumptuous dinner, Wang Chunfa, who had been driving for a day, was about to go to sleep, but Changsheng did not comply, so the man made good tea, and had to lie in his room to talk to him. The famous book is to listen to the anecdotes of his many years of driving, but it is actually for the sake of clichΓ©s.
Helplessly, Wang Chunfa was honest and careful, no matter what Changsheng did, he could bypass it, and he also persuaded her to go to bed early. The more he lives like this, the more suspicious he becomes,
Later, Changsheng was anxious, and stood up angrily: "Uncle, I have been away from home for eight years, but I haven't seen my father and brother come to pick me up, my father is not in good health and said that in the past, the reason why my brother didn't come is completely untenable, let my uncle run thousands of miles without saying it, and I won't give you travel expenses, Changsheng must know how his uncle is doing at home over the years, how can there be such a truth in the world?" Changsheng is not a three-year-old child, how can he not see that there is a problem inside? If you don't make it clear, how can I go back in a daze? You told me in advance, I'm so prepared! β
After speaking, he turned around and was about to go out: "If you don't say it again, I will rent a house in Jinyang and never go back!" β
Seeing that Changsheng was about to turn his face when he spoke, Wang Chunfa hurriedly stopped her: "Don't worry, don't worry, uncle, I'll tell you the truth!" β
Changshengfu sat down again, staring at him intently, Wang Chunfa sighed but didn't hurry to speak, drank a cup of tea, and then said slowly: "Uncle didn't mean to hide it from you, but he was afraid that you would be angry." After the letter from your hometown was returned, your father and your mother were very happy, who doesn't want to be their own daughter? But An Sheng heard that you were going back to your hometown and said that he didn't agree to anything, so he had to ask someone to carry a letter to let you continue to stay in the palace, and then it was too late to give up. Of course he doesn't want to pick you up, and his daughter-in-law probably won't say anything good, your father just fell ill, and your brother has only known how to study since he was a child, and he hasn't been far away, your mother is not at ease, so she asked your uncle to pick you up. In fact, whoever picks it up is the same, don't take it to heart, and besides, your father and your mother are in charge of the family, and no one listens to what he says. β
Changsheng was stunned: "Why is he not happy that I go home?" β
"Silly boy, think everyone is as sincere as you? When you go home, not only can you no longer earn the money in the palace to support your family, but you also have to keep it at home. Maybe he thinks that my parents can't get married and have to rely on him to support them for a lifetime, but in fact, he should be supported for a lifetime. Before you entered the palace, your eldest brother was already eighteen years old, because the family was too poor to even hire a daughter-in-law, and later used the twenty taels of silver sold by the government to repair the house and hire a daughter-in-law, he didn't want to think about it, if it wasn't for your help over the years, what would they do to support the family? β
Changsheng gasped, daring to love that his love for him when he visited his relatives before was all fake? This is really not to be underestimated, that seemingly shrewd, capable and family-oriented brother is selfish and ruthless to this extent! The money she has given over the years can't feed him!
A breath of anger welled up in his heart, and he sneered and said: "All these years, I have been thinking about my family with all my heart, and I will be disgusted if there is no benefit here?" He probably didn't know that the palace would pay a hundred taels of homecoming fees when I left the palace, if he knew this, I am afraid that he would actively come to pick me up than anyone else? β
Hearing that there is a returnee Fei Wang Chunfa breathed a sigh of relief, and saw that Chang was angry like this, and said regretfully: "Your mother is afraid that you will be angry, so she must not let you tell you, everything will be said when you go back, blame me for not being able to help it." Good boy, don't pay attention to him, there is still your father and mother at home, and it is not his turn to call the shots. Your mother said, it's a big deal to separate him and live another one! β
No matter what he said, Changsheng's heart, which longed for family affection, had been deeply hurt.
Since she knew that there was such a home, there were relatives who really loved her, no matter how difficult it was in the palace, no matter how many calculations she faced, she fought back secretly and sneered at the same time, she has enough ability to protect herself in the palace, and she has a family and relatives outside the palace, what else is there to fear?
Because his father and mother are not in good health, his brother Zhou Ansheng, who mostly comes when he visits relatives, shows his love for himself every time, and he tells him thousands of instructions and good words, so that Changsheng, who is very strange to him, gradually regards him as a real relative, and it is precisely because of this that it makes people sad.
It turned out that the love and care he had shown for himself over the years was all fake, just to make himself willing to save money to subsidize him, and he was just a tool for him to make money.
"Uncle, I'm not going back! Although I leave the palace, I don't have to rely on him to support Zhou Ansheng! You have a lot of acquaintances in Jinyang, tomorrow you take me to rent a suitable house to live in, you bring these gifts back for me to give away, if my father and mother miss me, come to Jinyang to find me, by the way, tell Zhou Ansheng, I don't welcome them when they come! β
------I'm sorry everyone, I went home yesterday to accompany my parents for the Mid-Autumn Festival, my parents don't have a computer, so there is no update, and I haven't had time to explain, I will pay attention in the future, and try to keep changing!
