Chapter 479: Affection for the family
"I've come this far because of your good teaching, sister-in-law." Zhang Xiaoru said with a sincere face:
"Without my sister-in-law, you took me to make clothes and taught me how to do wonderful work for women, and I am still shrunk in my room, embroidering insoles every day to pass the time."
"The master led the way in, and the cultivation depends on the individual. To be able to have today is your own effort. Gong Xiangqin said with a smile, sincerely happy and proud of her.
After Zhang's father and son finished chattering, they walked over and looked at Gong Xiangqin, who was also startled by her round and straight belly, and immediately said worriedly:
"It's such a long way, your body is heavy, you shouldn't toss such a trip, but are you tired? Don't stand in the yard and go inside to rest. ”
"Dad, I'm fine, and the babies are all right." Gong Xiangqin stepped forward, grabbed his other arm, and said with a smile.
Because of this Dad, Father Zhang was immediately stunned, and the tears that had been stopped slid down again, he quickly wiped away his tears, turned his head, looked at Gong Xiangqin, his hand was a little trembling on the back of her hand, and the corners of his mouth trembled: "Okay, okay." Let's go into the house and rest. ”
When Gong Xiangqin saw him like this, her nose was sour, and she choked up.
"In-laws, I have always had a tough temper, and I have offended many places before, please forgive me, don't worry, in the future, our two families will still be a family." At this time, Zhong Yue also stepped forward, bowed slightly to Zhang's father, and sincerely apologized to him.
"Hey! This, this is unacceptable! Xiangqin's mother, you are like this, so that my old face has nowhere to put it, it was me who was wrong before, it was the child who was wrong! We're sorry for the fact that there are too many Xiangqin! If it weren't for me, we wouldn't have been able to make so much trouble......"
Father Zhang hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Zhong Yue's arm, helped her up, looked at her, and confessed with tears.
"In-laws, the past, from today onwards, we won't mention it anymore, okay?" Zhong Yue said with a smile.
"That's right, there's no way to live this life without fighting. Let's just talk about it, it's still a family. Su Mei also responded with a smile on the side.
"Okay, okay, don't mention it. As long as both children are well, they are stronger than anything else. Zhang's father wiped away his tears and said with a smile.
"Come, in-laws, come into the house and drink tea." Su Mei said enthusiastically: "It just so happens to be almost noon, you are eating here, I will let her fourth uncle go grocery shopping in a while, you and Xiaoru will eat whatever they like, we will do it." ”
"Anything, don't pick and choose." Father Zhang replied with a smile.
"I don't pick anything, I'll eat everything, let's go out to buy vegetables, don't trouble the fourth uncle." Zhang Xiaoru said excitedly:
"Brother, let's go, you go out with me. Sister-in-law, you are inconvenient, just talk to my dad at home. ”

After a lively meal, Gong Xiangqin was really tired, so she went to take a nap to rest, Zhang Chenyi chatted with Zhang's father, and listened to him say some things about his childhood, about being a soldier, and he couldn't help but have a lot of clips in his mind.
"Dad, what do you think about my mother's affairs?" Zhang Chenyi hesitated for a moment and asked.
For his mother, while Zhang Chenyi missed her in his heart, he was also a little resistant, apprehensive, and a little unsure what would happen if he went to see her.
Even Xiangqin said that the matter had passed, and his mother had repented, no longer as stubborn, feudal, and despised Xiangqin as before.
However, for some reason, he didn't believe it, and always felt that a person could change so easily, especially the elderly, and the deep-rooted concept could not be changed.
Even though, the biggest contradiction between him and Xiangqin - the inability to have children - has been resolved.
"What do you say?" Zhang's father took a puff of dry tobacco, squinted his eyes and said: "In the past six months, she has been taken care of in a nursing home, and she has no worries about food and clothing, which is also very good." ”
"But when people are old, don't they just look forward to their common children and wives talking by their side." Zhang Chenyi lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Throwing my mother in a nursing home is probably a kind of torture for her." ”
"You feel sorry for her, it's because you don't remember the bastard things she did, oops, it didn't drive us crazy!" Zhang's father looked at his son and said:
"I divorced your mother because I didn't want her stubbornness and confusion to drag you down! We didn't throw her on the street to ask for food, she was more comfortable than anyone else. You don't have to feel sorry for her! ”
"Dad, I'm going to see my mom too." Zhang Chenyi didn't respond to his father's words, and after a long time, he said, "Don't bring Xiangqin." ”
"It's fine. Before the child is born, it is best not to let Xiangqin see your mother. Your mother doesn't have a serious one, and it's not good to hurt Xiangqin again. Zhang's father said.
“…… Dad, Mom has hurt children before?! I seem to vaguely remember ......" Zhang Chenyi hesitated for a moment and asked.
"Alas, it's a belly of anger to talk about!" Father Zhang said what happened to Li Xing'er in a few simple words, "I'm just afraid now, when Xiangqin came back a year ago and went to your uncle's house to pick her up, I kept thinking about it." I'm afraid that she doesn't have a heavy one and touches Xiangqin. ”
Zhang Chenyi was stunned there, and after a long time, he stood up and said, "Dad, then you can accompany me to the nursing home." ”
"Leave now? Don't wait for Xiangqin to wake up and tell her? Father Zhang put away his pipe and asked.
"I'm tired along the way, let her sleep well, and stop arguing with her." Zhang Chenyi shook his head.
"It's fine." Zhang's father said.

County nursing homes.
"Aunt Wang, your family has come to see you." The nurse shouted at Zhang's mother, who was sitting on the bed knitting a sweater.
"Who's coming? Is it Xiaoru or Jiaming? Mother Zhang hurriedly put down her sweater excitedly, got out of bed in a hurry, lowered her head and put on her shoes, and kept muttering:
"It should be Jiaming, Xiaoru just came here last week, yes, it was Jiaming who came to see me......"
Zhang Chenyi walked into the room and saw Zhang's mother sitting on a chair, buttoning her shoes, with gray hair, withered hands, and a dark side face, which seemed to be several years older than the mother in his memory.
He stood at the door, vaguely heard the other party's chatter, and couldn't help but feel a touch of sourness in his heart, pursed his lips, Zhang Chenyi took a deep breath again, and shouted: "Mom......"
When Zhang's mother heard this call, her hand holding the shoe buckle shook, she raised her head suddenly, and when she saw clearly that what she was looking for was her eldest son who she was worried about day and night, she burst into tears in an instant.
"Xiao, Xiaoyi?" Mother Zhang slowly stood up from the chair, because she was too excited, her legs were shaking, she took a step forward and almost fell, the frightened Zhang Chenyi hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her arm, "Mom, you sit down first." ”
