Chapter Thirty-Nine: Almost Missed
When Grandma Fan heard the old woman's words, her heart suddenly became heavy, and she felt a chill from the bottom of her heart in a trance. Even the burden on her shoulders was inexplicably much heavier, and the numb grandmother withstood the biting cold wind and staggered home with the burden.
After arriving home, I put down my burden, it was not early, and I was used to picking a few good winter vegetables, so I rushed to Yang Ping's house.
When grandma was in a hurry, she pushed the door and stepped into Yang Ping's house, but she hadn't started calling Xiao Yaozu yet.
This little Pete had just returned from abroad, and during that period of time, he was jet lag, second, he was born, and third, he was endlessly harassed and troubled. Now basically, in addition to falling asleep every day, someone has to hold it in your hand and stick it to someone else's chest, and as soon as you leave, you keep crying, so Yang Ping is home alone, and eating is a problem.
Yang Ping was holding little Pete in one hand, and was busy making milk powder for him who was crying with the other. Hearing someone enter the door, he turned his head to look at Grandma Fan, and naturally shouted, "Mom! Mom! Why are you here so late today, I'm dying of hunger, the fish and meat have been taken out of the refrigerator, mom, you make dinner first. Qiao Jun has just come back from the county seat and bought two pigeons for his mother's old man's house, and he is now busy killing pigeons, waiting for the stewed soup to make up for his mother. ”
Suddenly, I heard Yang Ping, calling her mother affectionately, and my grandmother's cold heart immediately warmed up, and I hadn't heard the children call her mother so close for a long time. Yang Ping and his wife are really better than their own children in this time, they either buy food or wear for three days, and they also replenish their bodies from time to time.
Grandma smiled and happily replied, "Bah-ho!" Mom will cook for you right away, and if you come back late in the afternoon, Mom will come over early tomorrow. Little Yaozu! You're hungry too! It's all to blame for grandma's lateness. As he spoke, he went to the kitchen and got busy.
Yang Ping reacted when she heard her grandmother's words, she called Grandma Fan her mother just now, and she was embarrassed to stick out her tongue with Qiao Jun, who was squatting on the ground and killing pigeons.
Qiao Jun smiled, interesting! Tonight, these two people shouted closer than one another, and he didn't break it, thinking it was good.
Grandma cooked, Yang Ping's loud voice shouted at Fan Ya upstairs, and Fan Ya, who was still watching TV, was reluctant to go downstairs.
Grandma said Fan Ya: "Xiaoya! Don't you dislike Yaozu for being too young and not fun, and don't want to come to your aunt's house? Why do you soak in my aunt's house every day during the holidays? ”
Fan Ya bit a piece of braised pork and said inarticulately: "In a few days, my brother will also have a holiday, I can play with my brother, I will come over in advance now to occupy a room, I can watch TV every day, I can tease Pete, and I can eat braised pork, big chicken legs, and delicious fish!" ”
"You know how to eat all day long, you know how to watch TV, when can you study hard with snacks!" Grandma said with disgust at Fan Ya. Since the last boarding school, the whole family has a shadow, and they dare not force Fan Ya to study, as long as they are not counted last in the class.
"When Mom and Dad come home, I promise to study hard in the future, and I will show you the first exam every day, and now you don't mention anything about studying with me! I'm going upstairs to watch TV. He put a few pieces of braised pork into his bowl and went upstairs to eat with his rice.
"How old is this, don't let me say a word like this, you two look at this little white-eyed wolf I raised." Grandma was a little angry, and suddenly, remembering what the old woman had said in the afternoon, bowed her head and was silent.
Qiao Jun saw that the pigeon soup in his grandmother's bowl was finished, so he stretched out his hand: "Auntie! I'll give you another bowl of pigeon soup. ”
"Ah Jun! No! Jun! You've already filled me with a big bowl at first, that's enough! That's enough! Eat those in the pot, you two! It's a waste to give me this old woman to eat. The older the grandmother gets, the more she wants her son to be by her side, and the better the couple is to herself, the more she feels that her son and daughter-in-law are too useless, dragging herself to death, and she is already physically and mentally exhausted.
Yang Ping felt that something was wrong with her grandmother tonight, and she always felt that she had something to hide from herself, so she asked, "Auntie!" Are you hiding something from us? ”
"Nope! Not really! Apple! Let's eat! Wait until it's cold. Grandma's words flickered, and she wanted to change the subject.
Yang Ping saw through it at once, Grandma Fan, a person who really can't lie: "Auntie! Oh my god! I called you mom at first, what else do you have to do to fill me up? Go ahead! What is it, let's think about it together, there are always more ways than difficulties. ”
"Say it? Auntie! Don't carry something alone, you can't carry it when you're older. My parents also left two years earlier, and now they have broken off relations with the Yang family, and you are the only old man by our husband's side. You let the two of us do our filial piety, and the family has an old man like a treasure. Qiao Jun tried his best to enlighten Grandma Fan.
"Uh-huh! Qiao Jun is right, there is an old man at home to help him, and he is not panicked. Life is also comfortable, auntie! What else do you have to say? Yang Ping said sincerely.
Grandma Fan paused and thought about it since their husband and wife treated each other so sincerely, there was no need for me to hide it, and it would be easy to get along if it was broken. I tactfully told the two of them that I met the same person when I planted winter vegetables and harvested winter vegetables, and told them and their husbands and wives all the things they encountered twice......
Yang Ping was stunned for a moment after hearing this, I didn't take a penny, and I posted a lot of money from their Fan family. How many days and nights have you been busy, how many grievances you have suffered, and how many sins you have suffered, you have fallen into such a reputation. Lying on the table aggrieved and crying lowly.
Qiao Jun heard it, so it was! began to persuade the two of them: "Don't worry, you two, let's take our time and analyze it, the old woman's words can't be fully believed." The money she said last time to give the Yang family is indeed true, this time she is looking at her aunt, and she did not agree to take their youngest son abroad, so she deliberately said this about our family. She sees that we get along well, but she is envious, jealous and hateful, and wants to sow discord between us. Let's not fall for her. ”
"That's right! That's right! Auntie! Don't be fooled! Kaiyan and Guo'er have been abroad for so many years, but they haven't made much money, and foreign things are expensive. They smuggled in the past, and they didn't have a penny on hand, so they used their wages to offset the smuggling fees. The first few years I went were all for nothing, and the money I earned in recent years was wasted like that some time ago, and the fruit raw Pete spent a lot of life-saving money. So the two of them don't actually have much money on hand, Pete is fostered at my house, and I don't take a penny from your family. I'm going to buy diapers, wipes, and milk powder for Pete Jr. Just these things, it will cost me at least five or six hundred dollars a week or so on little Pete. Auntie! For the fruit, I contributed and paid for it! Let's not let the bad guys get into the way. Yang Ping was reminded by Qiao Jun, so she first told Grandma Fan the inside story of raising Pete.
Grandma Fan is now very convinced that the old woman is sowing discord, and she is almost about to fall for the scheme. I didn't expect the little grandson to be really a baby pimple, and a week's expenses were two months' expenses for myself and Fan Ya. I was ashamed that I almost listened to the slander at first, and I couldn't stop apologizing to Yang Ping and his wife, but I was confused......
