Chapter 934: The Power of the Family
"Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and we feel that having no money is the biggest trouble, but the troubles of the rich are no less than ours."
Meng Yuxiang said to the two children, An Dingkai nodded in understanding, but An Dingqiang felt that how could An Xia attract so many people to like it, she had all the mansions in the imperial capital, it was too jealous.
Then he felt that his father could be so ruthless to his son, and his father seemed to be stronger than Grandpa Lu to his son, and he was a little conflicted in his heart, what should he do?
An Xia knew that Grandpa Lu's heart must have hurt very seriously this time, although Grandpa Lu may have foreseen that his two sons would make trouble with him, but to this extent, those hurtful words came out, far more serious than imagined.
After going back, no one asked what happened to Emperor Anxia, and An Dingqiang wanted to speak and stopped, but in the end, because he didn't deal with Anxia, he didn't want to talk to Anxia, so he was silent.
An Xia cherished the last few days in Shanpo Village, and she was going back to the imperial capital after four days, and her grandfather and parents asked her every day when she would come back, and they all said that they missed her very much.
In the third year of junior high school, Qiao Dongmei invited An Xia and An Jiazhi An Jiaye to go to the house for dinner, An Xia came back to help her so much, she didn't thank the child properly, and An Jiaye was even more helpful to his family, his son couldn't farm, many times An Jiaye and Kai Kai secretly helped, she knew everything, otherwise how could her own rice grow so well.
"Mom, I have no opinion if you want to have a treat, but we can't pay for the food, it's not us if you want to treat, and there is still a person at home who eats idle food, doesn't do anything at all, and has to eat and drink every day." Gu Hongxia shouted at An Wen's house.
"It's not up to you to decide what money is going to do. Dingkun, it's the New Year, if you don't leave your relatives, then invite your third uncle and fourth uncle to have a meal, which is also considered a full courtesy. ”
"Mom, speaking of which, you are the sister-in-law, did they invite you to dinner? Why invite them, how much do so many people have to spend, I want to eat meat, you can't bear it, but I earn the money in this house, but now you have the money, and you can't live this life. ”
An Dingkun was angry, his family sold food, his mother went to the grain station to settle the bill, took all the money away, and didn't know where to hide, Hongxia couldn't find it, and refused to take it out after making trouble a few times.
"That's right, Mom, you can enjoy the blessings, why do you hold this money, the family is all working in the fields."
An Dingkun and Gu Hongxia forced Qiao Dongmei to come out with money under the pretext that Qiao Dongmei wanted to treat him today.
"There are also bird's nest and ejiao sent by Qiangqiang, why should Anwen eat it, she did such a shameless thing, and she ate such a good thing, she didn't give me a bite to taste. And the gift that was sent, Mom, what do you mean by locking yourself in your own house, are we a family? ”
Gu Hongxia relied on An Dingkun to stand on her side, and today she will force her mother-in-law to hand over the power of the family.
Anwen was lying on the bed, listening to all kinds of unpleasant words from the eldest brother and sister-in-law outside, and slowly walked out with a stomachache and leaning against the wall, "Mom, you give them the money, I haven't seen the money!" ”
"Humph!" Gu Hongxia crossed her waist and walked over, "You have seen money, then you give me the money for medical treatment and eating at home, and your eldest brother and I are not obliged to support you." ”
"My money? The gift from Boss Hao is hundreds of yuan, not enough for me to live here for a month! An Wen gasped for breath, eager to slap Gu Hongxia's hateful face.
Qiao Dongmei looked at the scene in front of her, and couldn't bear to say it, the money An Wen spent was all paid by her, she couldn't say it, because as long as she said it, her son would definitely ask her where she got the money, and she couldn't let anyone know about the money An Xia gave.
Qiao Dongmei ran back to the bedroom, took out the iron box hidden in the cabinet compartment, and handed it to her son.
"This is the money from the sale of rice at home, and I have a note of expenses, Hongxia, don't talk about my black money, you know how much money the rice sold, since you want to be in charge of the family, then you can take care of the money, I will wait for you to arrange dinner in the future, rest assured that I will not eat in vain, I will do the work at home, you will do the work in the field, Hongxia you will work or not, as long as Dingkun does not say, I will never say more."
Gu Hongxia hurriedly rushed to An Dingkun's side, rushed to open the box, the money and notes inside fell, and the two of them excitedly picked up the money that fell from the ground, their eyes full of excitement.
"Today, we have a treat, we want to buy something to entertain the guests, give money."
Gu Hongxia hugged the money box, "What to buy, what is not at home, marinated meat and fish, and those dishes, it is enough." ”
Qiao Dongmei said angrily: "You have to buy a few tubes of bones to stew lotus root soup, just eat those." ”
"Why not, what are the conditions of our family, Mom, why do you like to compare with others, the third uncle and the fourth uncle are richer than our family, they are tired of eating big fish and meat, so it's good to eat some vegetables."
Anwen looked at her mother's embarrassed appearance, and suddenly showed a weird smile, this is the eldest brother who was in pain with her mother back then, it's good, this is retribution, she leaned against the wall and went back to lie down.
Qiao Dongmei saw that it was already quite late, and her son and daughter-in-law seemed to be sure not to give money, so she was so angry that she had no choice but to hurry to cook.
When it was almost noon, An Jiazhi's family and An Jiaye's family brought An Xia to all come, both of them were carrying things in their hands, and as soon as they entered the door, An Jiazhi shouted: "Sister-in-law, I wish you a New Year, Happy New Year!" ”
"Sister-in-law, Happy New Year."
Qiao Dongmei, who had just finished frying, didn't have time to take off her apron, and hurriedly ran out of the stove room, seeing that everyone was carrying things in their hands, "Come here, why do you still take things?" ”
"Sister-in-law, how can you come empty-handed for your New Year's greetings." Meng Yuxiang smiled, let the men and children go in first, and rolled up her sleeves, "Sister-in-law, the meal is not ready yet?" I'll help you. ”
Meng Yuxiang knew that her sister-in-law was having a hard time now, and she didn't mention why Dingkun's daughter-in-law didn't help, but she just stepped forward to help.
Qiao Dongmei looked at the meal she had prepared, and tears were about to fall in embarrassment, "I didn't prepare anything, it's all ...... Vegetable. ”
Meng Yuxiang didn't mind, "Eat meat every day, just eat some green vegetables, sister-in-law, your green vegetables are so tender, they are delicious at first glance, I'll stir-fry the vegetables, sister-in-law, you go in and sit for a while, it's good for a while." ”
"How's that going to work?"
Meng Yuxiang said that she pushed Qiao Dongmei out of the door, looked at the dishes in the kitchen, and sighed, she knew that her sister-in-law had done her best, her family's conditions were poor, this year's rice production was average, and she couldn't make any money, these were already all the meat dishes in the family.
She heated the oil, poured the greens into it, stir-fried it, Qiao Dongmei poured water for everyone in the hall, and was held down by An Xia and sat on the chair.
"Auntie, I'll just come, you sit down and rest."
Qiao Dongmei saw her son and daughter-in-law hiding in the house and didn't come out, so she shouted at them.
