Chapter 82: The Year

Ma Yindi saw so many things in the handbasket, and was robbed before she could come over, and she didn't dare to be angry with her mother-in-law, so she could only whisper: "Mother, your eldest granddaughter-in-law just got a body, and it doesn't smell good to eat anything, so she likes to contain a sweet candy or something, you see that the candy Xiaoxi brought is very high-end, it must be sweeter and more fragrant, give the eldest granddaughter-in-law a pack, right?" ”

Mrs. Sun glared at her eldest daughter-in-law: "Say it lightly, give her a pack?" Don't eat it anymore? There are so many people in the family, how can they be divided? ”

Although she doesn't look down on her eldest daughter-in-law, she feels stupid and useless, but Mrs. Sun, like Old Man Sun, is very interested in the two eldest grandsons left by her eldest son, thinking that the eldest grandson is ready to add a great-grandson to herself after a year of marriage, even though Mrs. Sun is reluctant, she still opened a bag of candy and grabbed two handfuls for Ma Yindi: "Take it and take it, let her save some, two pills a day are enough, other people's families don't have such conditions as ours!" ”

Ma Yindi whispered and didn't know what to say, Mrs. Sun scolded and gave an extra handful of sugar, and then tightened the basket to drive people away, Ma Yindi turned around to go back to her house, and Mrs. Sun shouted at her back again, asking her to clean up the table in the house where she had just finished breakfast, brush the dishes and chopsticks, and boil water to fill the kettle...... There's work to do!

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were chattering over there, and the old man Sun stared at Lin Xi and asked, "Say, what are you doing here?" What is the purpose? ”

Lin Xi looked at him and felt that this old man was evil, but after thinking about it, he was relieved: since he was abused in this courtyard when he was ten years old, Lin Xi was reluctant to come over, even if Sun Qingyong led his wife and children to reunite with his parents and family during the New Year's holidays, Lin Xi was also reluctant in every way, and was very resistant and afraid of this place, but now she not only sent it to the door herself, but also generously brought gifts, and it was reasonable for Old Man Sun to be suspicious.

Lin Xi smiled, looked around while arranging his gloves, and said: "I returned to the city from the military region yesterday, and I heard that a large number of you came to my house to see my grandmother before, and I didn't come to be rude, I have nothing to do anyway, and I am idle and idle, so I should come over to see you." This yard is wide and bright, and how comfortable it is, but it is much better than my small house! ”

Old man Sun snorted, and just wanted to say something, Mrs. Sun suddenly rushed over, holding Lanzi in one hand and pointing at Lin Xi with the other:

"You're embarrassed to say, huh? You disobedient and unfilial thing, losing money! You dare to steal your father's money to buy a house, and you don't listen to your parents, without the consent of our elders, and you don't see people giving you half a cent of the bride price, so you rush to get married...... Do you know that you have simply lost the face of our old Sun family?! I don't even want to recognize you, I'm too lazy to care about your, but fortunately, you don't have the surname Sun! Since you are both married, the house was bought with your father's money, hurry up and return it to me! My second grandson and grandson are going to get married, and my granddaughter is about to get married, and whoever I give that house to them is better than leaving it to you! ”

Mrs. Sun was so excited that she jumped up in the end, and her curved and long nails almost scratched Lin Xi's face, and her youngest daughter Sun Qinglan heard the sound and came out to see the excitement, so she stopped her in a bad way.

Lin Xi can't really let Mrs. Sun scratch it, she will avoid it herself if Sun Qinglan doesn't come, and Lin Xi is not angry about Mrs. Sun's words and deeds - irrelevant people, what's there to be angry about?

She said plainly: "Your old man is right, I don't have the surname Sun, and I don't count the Sun family, so I get married, and it is impossible for the man to send the bride price money to the Sun family." And my house was bought with my own money, to be exact, the money left to me by the Lin family, and it has nothing to do with Master Sun! ”

"Red mouth and white teeth lie, and I'm not afraid of flashing my tongue! How does it matter? Wang Ying can say it all, you stole your father's money to buy that house! ”

"You all let Wang Ying deceive, Wang Ying wants to take her own mother to the market, but my father has many children, and the family can't live there, and Wang Ying's mother likes to be quiet, and has long taken a fancy to my house, Wang Ying knows that robbing the house is against laws and regulations, and she doesn't come forward herself, so she asks you to come out and make trouble, what is the result? The police are here, right? This time, my grandmother didn't care about you and expressed her understanding, so the police didn't lock you up, and it will be hard to say next time! ”

Mrs. Sun snorted: "Joke! Do I need the understanding of the stinky capitalists? What kind of public security officer ate the leopard's gall and dared to arrest me and lock me up? Don't ask what kind of character my son is? That stinky capitalist old woman didn't rely on my son's official position, otherwise she would have died in a stinky ditch with her composition! And you, a white-eyed wolf who can't be raised, with your elbows turned outward, I shouldn't have given birth to you in the first place! You are married now, I don't care how you bought the house, it is all something that belongs to my grandson's family, and the water spilled by the married daughter is not allowed to take away a penny of your mother's family and give me back the house! ”

The old woman's words were so ugly that Lin Xi couldn't help but sink his face and sneered: "Do you want to stand at the door and shout?" Let the neighbors come to hear how big an official your son is, so that you can be so proud of being a mother that you don't even pay attention to the law! In today's new society, even national leaders say: women can hold up half the sky! But you are still full of old feudal ideas, scolding girls for losing money? I think you want to smear your son's face and drag him back, right? ”

Mrs. Sun: "You ......"

Old man Sun scolded from the side: "Okay! What's the noise? Shut up! ”

He squinted his eyes and looked at Lin Xi and said, "You are a girl, don't have too big a heart!" You can live peacefully until now, and you can still marry in Haishi, the man's family does not dislike you and dares to marry you, it is all for the sake of our Sun family! The house you bought you can't take away anyway! You also know that now is a new society, and if you don't get married in the old society, you have to bring a dowry, and the house is so expensive, do you want to learn from your grandparents? Let people be caught wearing high hats and hanging black signs to parade in the streets? You don't know how thick the sky is, my old grandson can't afford to lose this face! ”

After Old Man Sun finished speaking, he snorted heavily, and went back to the house with his hands behind his back, Old Man Sun glanced at Lin Xi with disgust, and followed angrily.

Knowing that he was born with these two old guys and couldn't talk well, Lin Xi didn't care about them, and planned to go around the houses, find the right person to chat casually, and see if he could inquire about something, but seeing that Sun Qinglan didn't walk away, he looked at himself thoughtfully, so he greeted politely: "Hello fifth aunt." ”

Sun Qinglan also followed Mrs. Sun and others to Xingfu Lane the day before yesterday, and was thinking about what Lin Xi thought of this, when she heard Lin Xi call her fifth aunt, she immediately smiled, walked up and grabbed her hand and said:

"Xiaoxi, your grandmother is old and has a bad temper, and your grandfather is a little heavy, it's all for your good, don't be surprised. I heard that you are married, and the man is from your father's army? It's good, so that as long as your father lifts him, he can go up two steps in the future, which will be of great benefit to you! You specially brought a gift to see grandma today, that's right, which girl marries into her mother-in-law's family, no matter how well she marries, she will be looked down upon without her mother's support! The Lin family is broken, you can only count on your father, as well as our relatives and family, in the future, you will come back and walk around more during the New Year's holidays, and respect your elders and relatives more, understand? ”

Lin Xi smiled: "Are you really welcome me?" You've just seen it, and you're eager to sweep me out of the house. ”

"How so? No matter what, you are always grandma and granddaughter, as long as you are obedient, it is too late for them to love you! ”

Sun Qinglan said as she pulled Lin Xi to the house where she lived: "Let your grandmother dissipate your anger, go to my house and sit first, and we will talk." ”

Lin Xi naturally didn't object, and asked, "Why didn't the fifth aunt go to work today?" ”

"Today I take turns off, Guosheng and Xiuxiu's two children sleep at home during the winter vacation, and their father goes to work."

"The fifth aunt graduated from secondary school, educated and self-motivated, smart, beautiful and capable, and the two of them work in the hospital with a high salary, and their lives are much better than those of the second and fourth aunts."

Thousands of clothes are not worn, Lin Xi's flattery really made Sun Qinglan smile and patted her arm: "You kid, you can be well-behaved and make people happy." ”

"To tell the truth, however, I think the quality of life of the fifth aunt can be improved, at least at the age of your husband and wife, you have saved enough qualifications and everything, you should have a half-official position, and the salary should be a few levels higher."

Sun Qinglan retracted her smile and sighed, "Who said it wasn't? Even you know the truth - the combined salaries of me and your fifth aunt are a little more than your second and fourth aunts, but we spend a lot of money, raising families and children, living expenses for the elderly on both sides, and favors and so on, and there is nothing left in a month. I talked to your dad and Wang Ying about this, and asked them to help find a relationship and transfer the work of our husband and wife, your dad is my own brother, but he didn't say a word, and asked Wang Ying to arrange it, but she hasn't done it for me yet, and she doesn't know what to do all day. ”

Lin Xi smiled: "Wang Ying is indeed capable, it is said that the fifth aunt is not difficult for her to do, but everyone pays attention to distant relatives in doing things, you are just Wang Ying's sister-in-law, it is a little farther away, and she cares more about her mother's family - doesn't the fifth aunt know?" Wang Ying has a niece who lives in her house and is about to get married, I heard that the man is a company commander in my father's army, and it was Wang Ying who personally facilitated the marriage for Zhang Luo. There are also Wang Ying's mother and cousin, who want to settle in Haishi, her mother wants a house, and her cousin and husband and wife want to work, Wang Ying can't be busy with these, where can I take care of you! ”

Sun Qinglan frowned: "Really? Your grandmother and your second and fourth aunts also want to find your father and Wang Ying to do something for your second brother, cousin and cousin, Wang Ying promised to do well, but I didn't see any of them, we went to the military region every Sunday to ask for news, why didn't we listen to what she said, and didn't see her niece? ”

"My niece is basically not there on Sundays, sometimes I go back to my house and sometimes I go on a date, how do you meet? This time, her mother and her cousin's family came over, did they see it? ”

Sun Qinglan's face was gloomy for a while, then slowly recovered and said, "Hey, it's nothing, let's do it one by one." Anyway, it's the New Year now, it's useless to rush, wait for next year, it's our turn. ”

"I'm afraid that next year, Wang Ying won't be able to do things for you."

"What do you mean?" Sun Qinglan looked at Lin Xi in some surprise and asked.

Lin Xi's old god is here: "I held a wedding in the army, and then returned to the city for two days, why did Wang Ying stay there and not come back?" Didn't she tell you why? ”

Sun Qinglan said: "She only said...... She said on the phone that you are begging for nothing and forcibly marrying someone, but she didn't say anything else, so what is the reason? ”

"Hehe, it's a bit complicated to say - Sun Bingyan made a mistake in the army, and at the same time offended people who shouldn't be offended, and has been transferred out of the original army, and he won't be able to return to Haishi for at least three years! Wang Ying and my dad are doing remedial work over there, and it will take about two days to return to the city, and Sun Bingyan's mistake this time may directly affect my dad's future! I came today to tell you the news, but I didn't expect my grandfather and grandmother to let me talk. ”

Sun Qinglan was shocked: "Are you serious? Impossible, right? ”

"If you don't believe me, you can go out and find a public phone and call my dad to ask."

"Gee, what is this going to do? I've got to tell you...... No, what the hell is going on? You tell us more specific! ”

"Tell me first, is Sun Bingyan my father's biological daughter?"

"Of course not!" Sun Qinglan was categorical.

"And who is her biological father? Who was the man Wang Ying married for the first time? ”

"This ......" Sun Qinglan thought of Wang Ying's earnest request back then, and gave her so many benefits, and hesitated for a moment: "Why are you asking this?" It's been so many years, who remembers? ”

Lin Xi had a serious face: "It's okay if you don't remember, you must remember!" Because Sun Bingyan offended the big guy, the big guy was angry, if he couldn't explain Sun Bingyan's origin, then my dad would have to take full responsibility, which was related to the future, if my dad had no future...... What about the consequences? You get the idea! ”

Sun Qinglan's face was very ugly, she took a deep breath, and said openly: "Actually, I don't know very well, first I heard your second aunt and your eldest aunt discuss, saying that Wang Ying disliked our family for being poor and living in the countryside, so she got rid of your father and went to Haishi to marry the young master of a rich family; But later, I heard Wang Ying's old lady boast to others, saying that Bing Yan's father is a majestic and generous general, very amazing, much better than my brother! I had a fight with her about this. ”

"A general? That's really amazing, where did he go? Why don't you want Wang Ying and Sun Bingyan? ”

"Who knows? Wang Ying told her mother with tears in her eyes, and then the old woman never mentioned it again. Once Sun Bingyan celebrated her birthday, Wang Ying's mother came, and mentioned something that surprised us: she said that Sun Bingyan's birthday was not that day, and that the year Sun Bingyan was born was not right, according to her, Sun Bingyan's current age has been reduced by one year! ”
