Chapter 632: Is There Still a Conscience?
Sheng Jianian suddenly pointed to the tree in the courtyard and said; "Look."
Jiang Xizheng was speaking with great interest, and when he heard what he said, he immediately raised his eyes and looked over.
However, after watching it for a long time, I didn't find anything unusual.
After looking at it for a while, I was puzzled and asked, "What do you want me to watch?" ”
"It's snowing, isn't it?" Sheng Jianian said with a smile.
Jiang Xi opened his mouth, just a thin layer of frost: "You just let me see that?" ”
is a little speechless, but Sheng Jianian is serious; "Isn't it pretty? Don't you always feel that you haven't seen snow, don't you have it? ”
The corners of Jiang Xi's mouth twitched, and then he asked seriously, "Are you kidding me?" Is that snow? What I'm going to see is a very thick kind of snow, snow, snowman kind of snow, you know...... Is! ”
Sheng Jianian smiled at her awkwardly, which can be regarded as a divergence from her whimsical idea of using hot pot to entertain everyone at home.
The three of them entered the house before and after, and the old lady came out with Sheng and Xi.
"You're all back?" The old lady spoke up.
Jiang Xi entered the house, Sheng and Xi opened their short hands towards her, and Jiang Xi took the opportunity to hold the child in his arms.
The old lady hurriedly said: "I just came in from outside, what a lot of cool air I bringed." Hurry up and give it to me, don't leave the child cold. ”
"It's okay." Jiang Xi smiled, and then went into the house with the child in his arms.
She is more concerned about when Sheng and Xi drank the milk, whether there is anything crying, Ah Xiang is telling her.
The old lady watched Jiang Xi walk away from her side, unhappy. Then I saw Wen Qinyan come in, and his face was slightly better.
"What did you eat out at night? Ah Xiang said that you don't come back to eat, there are too many cars on the road, and you have a meal when you come back, so you are eating with friends outside, right? The old lady asked.
Wen Qinyan avoided the important and said lightly: "I ate hot pot, Chongqing hot pot." ”
The old lady was slightly stunned, "Oh, hot pot, hot pot is very good, you young people like those." But don't often eat so many things that are not healthy, how much is in the pot base? The taste is good, but the stomach is uncomfortable. When you are young, children should eat healthy and not be greedy for good taste. ”
Wen Qin stopped talking, he wanted to agree, but found that he would definitely not be able to do it if he promised, and he was still a glutton.
So readily agreed to return to China, isn't it because I have a Chinese stomach and can come back to eat?
Wen Qinyan said in a low voice: "I don't eat often, I rarely eat." ”
The old lady didn't mean to criticize him, and then said in a low voice: "Okay, eat less, and also talk to your friends, don't always eat those unhealthy things, it's not good for your health, you still have a long body." ”
"Won't eat much." Wen Qinyan responded one by one.
The old man likes to crumple and break a sentence to say, Wen Qinyan responded to everything, and did not show impatience, but listened to the lecture with an open mind.
Sheng Jianian passed by his ancestors and grandchildren, and saw Wen Qinyan's words and deeds in his eyes.
He won't say what he did well, but if he did wrong, he should be reprimanded.
Two sons, if they are sons, they should be treated harshly, and the words of a loving father do not exist with him.
Wen Qinyan finally said: "I rarely go out to eat hot pot with Jiang Xi, grandma, don't worry, I won't eat it often." She also said she couldn't eat once a year. ”
"Jiang Xi?" The old lady was angry: "She said to take you to eat hot pot?" ”
This kid's mother......
"She doesn't remember breastfeeding her children, and she went to eat those, and she didn't think about the children? It's so capricious. ”
As soon as the old lady's words came out, Wen Qinyan finally felt the rejection of hot pot at home, no wonder Jiang Xi said that no one ate it at home.
But he doesn't understand, can Chinese food be distinguished from noble and low?
He doesn't know much about Chinese culture, food culture, and regional culture, so in his eyes, the food of the motherland is delicious. Moreover, hot pot is the best food in his senses. In the past, not everyone could afford to go to a Chinese restaurant to eat hot pot abroad. In his mind, it was a high-consumption food.
"Yes...... Because it's too spicy? Wen Qinyan asked incomprehensibly.
The old lady glanced at Wen Qinyan and said, "Why are those things delicious?" Just because there are so many spices, can it be delicious to cook so many spices? That is, it can attract you young children to eat, you are young, just greedy for that taste, so you are willing to eat. But in fact, it's not good for your health, how much material is in it? ”
Wen Qinyan nodded, but those chefs, which one didn't put all kinds of ingredients in cooking?
"Jiang Xi, she is now breastfeeding your brother, she eats spicy food, that has no effect on the baby? The child depends on her, and she doesn't care at all about being a mother. The old lady sighed.
Wen Qinyan understood, and it turned out that he was worried about Sheng and Xi.
I heard that breastfeeding women drink alcohol, and babies get drunk after drinking breast milk, so it must be that mothers who eat spicy things will indeed be affected.
"We were going to come back directly, but the car was stuck in the road and didn't move, and the roadside was slippery today. I have to wait until I get home. I saw a hot pot restaurant on the side of the road, so I went in. Wen Qin said: "It's too cold outside, and the car can't go." ”
When the old lady heard this, her face looked a little better.
"Then can't you find a restaurant for some light stir-fry? Qin Yan said that you have just come back, and you are used to eating light, so don't eat indiscriminately outside, and your stomach and tongue will be bad for you when the time comes. "The old lady was alarmist.
Wen Qinyan knew that the old lady's words must be exaggerated, but she still nodded in agreement.
"Hurry up and take a shower, don't stand here." The old lady went in with Wen Qinyan, "Will you go out tomorrow?" ”
"Get out tomorrow." Wen Qin said.
The old lady didn't ask much, but said, "It's good to go out and get together with friends, it's better than being bored at home all the time." ”
Wen Qinyan didn't speak, and after saying hello to the old lady, he went upstairs and went back to his room.
After the person went upstairs, the old lady realized that this child was with Jiang Xi at night?
It seems that Jiang Xi is not as unwilling to accept this child as she thought.
At this moment, the haze in the old lady's heart was swept away, if the child didn't leave, the family could live in harmony, how good would it be?
"Jiang Xi." The old lady shouted, and then walked over, "Don't feed Hexi for the past two days, don't have any other reaction when the child eats." ”
Jiang Xi slowly raised his eyes, "Huh? Well, okay, I know. ”
Sheng Jianian said in a low voice: "It's okay, you can do it tomorrow." ”
Jiang Xi hurriedly said: "It's better to pay more attention." ”
"You took Qin Yan with you?" The old lady asked, "Did you contact you outside or did you meet?" ”
It's basically impossible to meet by chance, where did the child go, and where did Jiang Xi go?
Jiang Xi said with a smile: "When I came back, I passed by the place where Qin Yan was playing, so I thought about bringing him back with me, anyway, he had to take a taxi if he didn't take the subway." ”
"Well," the old lady nodded with satisfaction: "You are an elder," probably saying this, a little inappropriate, and the old lady said: "You are older than him, treat him like a child and a younger brother, you take the initiative, it will not be good." ”
The old lady finished speaking, and said, "Isn't the young master of the Xu family a few years older than him?" ”
Jiang Xi nodded: "Yes, it's just my younger brother who I haven't met." ”
The old lady nodded with satisfaction: "It's good, you are old, and you should give in." Even if he makes mistakes, he is still a child, and we should give him a chance to change. ”
Jiang Xi smiled: "Yes, yes, you are right. ”
After this fight, Jiang Xi has found a food ally, which makes her happy.
*
After Sheng Yuqi left, the second room has been in the dark, and the heavy haze firmly occupies the whole house.
The daughter is gone, as a parent, it is normal to blame the son-in-law for not taking good care of him, but in the second room, because Jiang Xiaohui tried to find death twice without success, the family avoided this matter as much as possible. When you are sad in your heart, you should also take into account his feelings.
Jiang Xiaohui was discharged from the hospital again, and the whole person lost a lot of weight, and after Sheng Yuqi was buried, he did not go to work.
The second wife's family persuaded many times, and Jiang Xiaohui responded that his lover was gone, and his efforts were in vain.
The second wife left Jiang Xiaohui's room, and went downstairs alone, Sheng Zhiqian just came back from outside, saw her mother coming down from upstairs, and knew that she had gone to see Jiang Xiaohui.
"Mom, is your brother-in-law okay?" Sheng Zhiqian asked.
When the second wife heard this, she sighed softly, "How can it be good?" In such a short period of time, people have become skinny and skinny. ”
"Brother-in-law is not a way to go on like this. Mom, otherwise, ask for leave from the company and let my brother-in-law go back to his home to recuperate for a while? Sheng Zhiqian asked.
The main reason is that Jiang Xiaohui is like this, such a big sad Buddha is pressed at home, and the family can slowly adjust, but because of Jiang Xiaohui's existence, the whole family can't get out of the haze.
When the second wife heard this, she immediately looked at Sheng Zhiqian coldly.
"Do you still have a conscience?"
Sheng Zhiqian said helplessly: "Mom, it's not that I don't have a conscience, but my brother-in-law is at home, and he will only touch the scene." In this home, where is there no sister's breath, where is there no sister's memory? Instead of staying at home all the time to see things and think about people, it is better to go out for a walk and meet relatives who have not seen you for several years. Perhaps, the mood has shifted. ”
Sheng Zhiqian's words, the second wife felt very reasonable.
"It's good that he can get out and about, of course, but ...... Would he be willing? I look at him, alas, your sister's departure really hurt him. ”
Sheng Zhiqian said in a low voice: "I'm not afraid of my brother-in-law's situation, I'm afraid that he won't be able to think about it, and then look for a short time." He's really the same as my sister, if you can't think about it, you'll die, and if you really die, you'll be a hundred? It's too selfish to not think about our living relatives and families at all! ”
When the second wife listened, her eyes instantly turned red.
"Your sister, she...... was also deeply hurt by reality, and a few days before she left, I felt that her spirit was getting worse and worse. You say that a good person, how can he suddenly wake up in the middle of the night and yell? always said that there was a child crying, and she was so mentally tortured that she chose that path because of the pain. But we knew her pain, but we didn't help her......"
The second wife was choked up, Sheng Zhiqian sighed, and wiped her tears for her mother.
"Mom, it's almost the New Year, can our family put my sister's affairs aside a little? My sister is so kind, she went to heaven, let's not be sad, okay? She had suffered so much mental torture in her lifetime, and now it was a relief for her. Sheng Zhiqian said in a low voice.
The second wife looked at Sheng Zhiqian with tears in her eyes: "Zhiqian, can you have a little conscience?" She's your sister. She's gone, and you're not so upset? ”
"I'm sad, so you mean that you want our family to be sad for the rest of our lives, and we who are alive don't want to live?"
Sheng Zhiqian stroked her hair: "I just hope that this whole thing of my sister can pass as soon as possible, I just hope that our family can return to normal life as soon as possible." Mom, we're still alive, and we're going to get on with it. ”
The second wife covered her face lightly and choked softly: "My Kiki is so kind, I just can't accept that my daughter who has lived with me for thirty years is really gone." ”
Sheng Zhiqian sighed: "Mom, my sister's matter has completely disrupted the life of our whole family and the work of all of us. Even my father was bored at home for a few days before going to the company, and I was the same, I was not in the mood to go to work at all, and I always made mistakes in doing things. Brother-in-law, Jiang Xiaohui, not to mention. Directly didn't go, the fourth uncle gave such a good opportunity, he said he wouldn't go if he didn't go. My brother-in-law is capable, he is a manufacturable material, and he is affectionate and infatuated with his sister, yes, this is his advantage. But if he grows up like this, don't you think it's too wasteful? How many people can wait for him? He just emerged in that circle, and now he is destroying his future, doesn't he know that in that circle, earth-shaking changes are happening every day? ”
The second wife wanted to speak and stopped, but even so, could she persuade her?
"I also know that your brother-in-law refuses to go to work, and not being able to come out of the pain will have a great negative impact. But if he doesn't go, will we drag him there? ”
Who can bear it?
Sheng Zhiqian suddenly lowered her voice and whispered: "So, I just said that I hope he will go back to his hometown, otherwise he will go out for a walk and go farther." I'm worried that something happened to him in our house. Mom, if something happens to my brother-in-law in our second room, do you think the police will believe that he was martyred? Isn't that ridiculous? ”
When the second wife heard this, she was frightened
immediately stepped forward and patted Sheng Zhiqian's shoulder: "You ...... You damn girl, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't think about it all the time, can you hope for something? ”
Sheng Zhiqian blocked her mother's hand: "What I'm saying is the truth, my brother-in-law has been decadent for so long, if you were the leader of the company, would you wait for him for so long?" There is no doubt that the peak of his career has passed. Opportunity can't wait for him all the time, let alone his position. ”
can only say that he didn't have that fate, and he can only say that the fate of the second room is doomed.
Of course, the second wife can understand the truth of this, but what can she do?
"Your brother-in-law has lost your sister, can we still force him to work? He originally worked hard to improve, all for your sister, but now that your sister is gone, what reason is there to convince him? The second wife sighed.
Sheng Zhiqian took two steps away and whispered; "Mom, so, my brother-in-law has been not cheering up, and he has been so decadent, what is the difference between our second room and a wasted person?"
Sheng Zhiqian was afraid that her mother would beat her, saying that she was ungrateful, and her sister's bones were not cold, so she began to dislike her brother-in-law.
So Sheng Zhiqian took two more steps, in order to avoid her mother's attack.
However, the second wife didn't make a sound, and stood still as if she was settled.
