Chapter Seventy-One: Stand Up
Seeing that the Chen family was about to hit Zhang's body, a person suddenly rushed out and stopped in front of Zhang.
And the firewood struck the man hard.
"The sea!" Zhang took a look, but found that it was his second son Xu Dahai who was hit this time, "Hey, what are you doing here?" ”
Xu Dahai was hit in the arm, and he snorted in pain.
"Mother, you're trying too hard."
Chen snorted coldly and wanted to push Xu Dahai away, but who knew that Xu Dahai was standing in front of her without moving.
"What are you going to do, sea?" Chen said impatiently, "Get out of the way, let my mother teach this slut a good lesson." ”
"I'm not out of the way." Xu Dahai said sullenly.
"You're against you!" Chen said angrily, "You dare not listen to me for this slut, what kind of ecstasy soup did she pour you?" ”
"Mother, Zhang's is my mother-in-law, and she has married to our family for so many years and gave birth to two children." Xu Dahai looked at Chen and said seriously, "Even if you don't like her, you can't shout like this from a slut." ”
"Now that our family's life has finally gotten better, you don't have to toss anymore."
After saying this, Mo said that the Chen family, and even the Zhang family behind Xu Dahai looked at him with a surprised expression.
This honest and silent man was willing to take the board for her for Chen's sake in the past, but this was the first time Xu Dahai had violated Chen's wishes in so many years.
Xu Lan, who had just come back, heard Xu Dahai's words as soon as she entered the door.
Her eyes flashed, she didn't make a sound, she just hid in the door and looked at her father quietly.
I heard Xu Dahai continue: "The family has to work together to live a good life, mother, have you forgotten how my grandmother tossed you when I was a child?" ”
Chen's body shook, and the firewood in his hand fell to the ground.
Although many years have passed, she has also become a mother-in-law from a new daughter-in-law, but the sins she suffered back then are deeply engraved in her bones. Now the slightest mention of it makes Chen's hand tremble uncontrollably.
Seeing Chen like this, Xu Dahai was distressed and sad.
"Mother, today's Zhang is the same you used to be!" Xu Dahai said in a deep voice, "Let's not toss, can we live a good life?" ”
Chen looked at Xu Dahai and then at Zhang who was standing behind her, and the expression on his face became complicated.
In the end, without saying a word, she turned and left.
Xu Dahai sighed deeply.
And Zhang's eyes were red, after so many years, this was the first time Xu Dahai stood on her side.
"Dad, mother." Xu Lan pushed the door and walked in, helping Zhang to sit down.
Xu Dahai looked at Zaohui's daughter and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Xu Lan glanced at Xu Dahai, thought about it, and took the lead in speaking: "In the future, if grandma doesn't come to provoke me and don't bully my mother, I won't provoke her first." ”
"Lan'er, your grandmother ...... when she was young" Xu Dahai was interrupted by Xu Lan as soon as she spoke.
"Grandma has suffered, can she beat my mother?" Xu Lan resisted the urge to roll her eyes, feeling aggrieved for her mother, "Dad, when you were a child, you saw your grandmother beating your mother, can you bear it?" ”
"How do you talk, you kid!" Xu Dahai's face sank, and his voice became a little stern, "You are a junior, don't talk to an elder like this." ”
"Lan'er, don't you make amends to your father." Zhang pulled Xu Lan's sleeve.
Xu Lan pursed her lips, but seeing Zhang's pleading eyes, she had to reluctantly compensate Xu Dahai.
"Hmph, you too." Xu Dahai looked at Zhang's and said dissatisfiedly, "Look at what Lan'er has been taught by you now?" There is no look of a child's house at all! ”
He felt that it was rare to be soft, but he was pushed back by Xu Lan, and he couldn't get over his face for a while, so he took Zhang's and began to get angry.
Seeing Xu Dahai scolding Zhang, the little emotion in Xu Lan's heart that he had just stepped forward to protect his mother disappeared immediately.
Zhang's only bowed his head and wiped his tears, not daring to speak.
Xu Lan clenched her fists in her sleeves, she must work harder to keep herself and her mother from suffering from such a wretch.
After Xu Dahai left, Xu Lan carried Zhang back to the room.
"Mother." She whispered to the root of Zhang's ear, "It would be nice if it was just the two of us living together." ”
Zhang was startled and quickly covered her mouth.
Seeing that the doors and windows were closed, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't talk nonsense." Zhang said nervously, "If your grandmother hears this, it will be a ready-made handle." ”
"But Daddy, he treats you like that, why does my mother always speak for him?" Xu Lan asked puzzled.
In her opinion, Xu Dahai, whether it is a father or a husband, is not competent. And when he is a son, he is an impeccable filial son.
"Your father is a man, he supports his family, and he still has a lot of difficulties in honoring his parents." Zhang lowered his eyes and said faintly, "After all, we are husband and wife, can we still be separated because of bickering?" ”
"If you become a husband and wife, can't you separate even if it's not good for you?" Xu Lan's eyes widened, and she suddenly felt that the matter of getting married seemed a little scary.
"It's not impossible, but the women in this world have been like this since ancient times." It was rare for Zhang to say so much to Xu Lan today, and he unconsciously said a few more words, "Marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog, your father is also a person from the Gu family compared with the people next to him." ”
"Not to mention our village, even in the county town, there is no woman who wants to reconcile because of her husband's beating and scolding."
Xu Lan shuddered suddenly.
If so, if the person she marries in the future treats her badly and beats and scolds her at every turn, can she only grit her teeth and endure it like her mother?
Seeing Xu Lan stunned, Zhang thought she had figured it out.
She touched her daughter's soft black hair lovingly, and said softly: "My family Rou'er is so good, I will definitely meet a good husband in the future." ”
Xu Lan subconsciously shook her head again and again, waved her hand and said, "I'm not married, mother, I'm still young." She bit her lip and said firmly, "I will stay with my mother for the rest of my life before I don't get married." ”
Zhang only thought that Xu Lan was talking about children, but he didn't care, but thought she was innocent and cute.
"You child, all the women in the world will marry when they are of age." Zhang smiled, "Except for the sister-in-law who cut off her hair, even the old aunt wants to get married." ”
Xu Lan was suddenly a little dazed.
Liang Wei's face suddenly flashed in her mind.
"And what about my proposal to you?" The words that Liang Wei had said that day just popped up and floated back in her mind several times.
If it's him......
Xu Lan's face burned red all of a sudden.
She felt her heart "thumping", and she didn't know what was wrong, Xu Lan only felt that she was very ashamed.
"What's wrong with this kid?" Zhang touched her forehead worriedly, "Don't catch a cold and have a fever." ”
