The old lady was anxious when she heard this, why did she say that she wanted to go to your house without consulting me?

Listening to a few people saying things like "the boss is filial" and "should be", she hurriedly said: "I won't go to your house, I won't go, I won't go!" ”

The branch secretary asked: "The boss is filial and the conditions are good, and you will definitely have a better life after following the boss." ”

Fourth Uncle Xu also said: "Yes, sister-in-law, Zhenhua is in Shencheng, you go to Shencheng, we can go to see you in the future, go to the big city or something." He laughed to himself.

The old lady said with a straight face: "I don't go to the boss's place, I won't go anywhere, I will live here." I have legs and feet, I can move, what do I live in other people's houses? I'm not going! ”

The boss is not a good thing, the eldest daughter-in-law is also a smiling tiger, the smile is only bad, she can't go to the old family to live, she still wants to live a few more years, hold her grandson!

Uncle Xu smoked a dry tobacco pouch and said: "I think it, Zhenhua, you have to listen to your mother and her about this matter, you are kind, but we people, we are old, we are not happy to go to the city, no one knows, you say?" Isn't there a saying that leaves fall back to their roots? When you are old and old, you have to go so far away from home, and it is normal for your mother to not like it and not want to go. According to me, let her live at home, she is in good health, the neighbors help take care of the point, and she is willing to live in the third child's house in the town for a while, isn't it good? ”

The old lady nodded busily, "Yes, yes, what the eldest brother said is right, when I can't move, I will go to the third child's house, it is still close to home, if your father comes back to find me, he can still find me." When I get away, he won't be able to find me. ”

Hearing her talk about the back, Xu Laosan couldn't help but feel sad for a while, "Yes, I will raise my mother in the future, I am close to home, and now my mother is unwilling to go to my place, so I often come back to see her, and when she is willing to go in a few years, I will pick up my mother, anyway, my house is big enough, and it is not far from the old house...... Big brother, you don't have to worry about our mother here, I will take care of her. ”

Xu Zhenhua hesitated, "Your side is not as good as my side, besides, I am the ......boss again."

Just because you're the boss, I won't go to live with you. The old lady shouted: "It's so decided, the boss is afraid of something, you don't stay home all day, your daughter-in-law has to serve the two children alone, how can you take care of it, it's so decided, I'm not going anywhere now, I'm in good health, and I'll go to the third child's house when I can't move." ”

Xu Zhenhua looked at the old lady with a resolute attitude, and saw several old people, "Uncle, fourth uncle, branch secretary, what do you see?" ”

Of course, others will not overstep their responsibilities in their family affairs, and they have said that it is so good.

Xu Zhenhua sighed and said, "I originally wanted you to go to my house to enjoy a few years of happiness......

The old lady waved her hand vigorously, "No, it's good, I'm comfortable living alone, what's the point of going to the city where no one knows!" "Phew, you just pretend, forgot when you had to send me back last year?" If your conditions are good, you can give me more living expenses in the future, and you won't compare with your two younger brothers. ”

A hint of self-deprecation flashed in Xu Zhenhua's eyes, whose mother and son are as hypocritical and polite as him and the old lady?

He sighed heavily, "Okay then, then listen to Mom." I don't have a problem with living expenses, who makes me the boss! I will not compare with them, but let each man do his own thing. How much, it's their own mind, the second and third, tell me, how much money do you pay our mother every month in the future? ”

Xu Lao Er hadn't sent money home for a few years, and he sighed: "How much money can mom spend alone?" I'll take ...... Twenty bars! Mao Dajin said twenty yuan, looking at the big guy's disdainful eyes, he explained: "What, all the money I saved was given to Xiaohong's mother, I don't have any money in my hand, the price of renting a house in the south is expensive, and it's not easy ......for me to earn some money."

Xu Zhenhua looked at him mockingly, this is the son protected by the old lady, look at this filial piety, just outside bragging about the gold everywhere in the south, and going is like picking up money, this is only 20 yuan a month for his own mother.

"I know it's not easy for you, you still have a little daughter-in-law to raise!" Xu Zhenhua's words made the old lady's face immediately darken, and Xu Lao Er was just about to explain, Xu Lao San had already said: "I'll get thirty yuan a month, you are not at home, I will come over every two or three days to see my mother, what work do you have to help with." ”

Xu Zhenhua nodded, "Thirty yuan is a bit much, twenty is enough, just like your second brother." If you have anything at home, you can run more errands, and you can call your sister-in-law if you have anything. ”

Xu Lao Er pouted, just turn into twenty when the third child arrives, and he just wants to take money out of his pocket!

He didn't want to think about how much money he made in the south, and how much money the third child could earn in the town?

That is, their family, it is a lot to put aside other people's families to get ten yuan a month, and a worker can earn seventy or eighty yuan, and he still has to support his family!

"I give the old lady fifty yuan every month, and if she has a headache and brain fever, if she is sick or something, we will calculate the money separately." In fact, Xu Zhenhua knew in his heart that in the end, he might only have to pay the fifty yuan himself, but this is also a helpless thing, who made him have good conditions, a high official position, and a boss!

The matter was settled in the presence of several old men.

Xu Zhenhua went out to see them off, and the old lady wiped her sweat and said, "I'm scared to death, but fortunately, the boss didn't have to let me go." ”

Xu Lao Er was puzzled: "Mom, you are really, how good it is to go to Shencheng, you don't have to work in a building, and you don't have to eat, it's like this bungalow, buried everywhere, and you can't finish a lot of work." ”

He whined, feeling that the old lady was simply incomprehensible.

"I'm not going, I'm going to look at people at such an age? I'm not going! The old lady snorted, "Your sister-in-law has a lot of thieves, I don't get along well with her, I won't go!" ”

Xu Lao Er was just about to speak, but the third child called "big brother" to the door, and the second child immediately closed his mouth.

Xu Zhenhua looked at the old lady, "Mom, if you don't get along well with Xiaotong, I can buy you a building to live in outside the compound, so you don't have to burn firewood to live in a bungalow." ”

The old lady can still say that they are not good in front of them, and it is not embarrassing to be caught behind her back and say bad things about her daughter-in-law, "Not now, there will be a building in the town in the future, you have to have that filial piety, and it is the same to buy it for me in the town." I'll live with the third couple in the future, I won't go to Shencheng, I can't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest, I won't go! ”

I had to go last year, and I refused to go this year, is the old lady willful? No, she has her own considerations.

At first, it was for two grandchildren, and now, it is still for two grandchildren and the youngest son.

The old lady knows that as long as she is in one day, as long as she lives with the third child for one day, the old family will not lose the third child.

Although she doesn't want to see these two people, she has to admit that these two people are rich and can be people, to put it bluntly, they are not bad for money!

Besides, what if she went to Shencheng, what if she ran into that dead old man of the Wang family?

The old lady has a lot on her mind.

And so it was settled.

Xu Zhenhua sat in the courtyard, watched the sunset, beckoned Xiaohong and Xiaomei to come over, and kindly asked about the two of them's studies.

Xiaohong has been studying for a year, she is a big girl, some girls from the countryside, so much of them are already married, she came back this time, and many childhood friends envy her that she can go to school, and she will be from the city in the future.

Xiaomei said in a snort: "I, I didn't do well in the exam." "Xiaomei's grades are much worse, and if she can deal with junior high school, she is already burning incense in the ancestral tomb.

"What about your brother? Did you go to school? ”

Suozhu is not sensible, Xu Zhenhua doesn't like this child, but he didn't criticize him too hard for the sake of his father's education since he was a child.

"Is your mom okay? What does she do at home? Do you still have a store? "He hasn't paid attention to their lives in the past year, and Lin Tong is paying attention to them.

There are his subordinates in the city, and they have all told them that they will help if they have difficulties, of course, there is no difficulty and don't care, after all, life has to be lived by themselves.

"My mom doesn't run a store anymore, she goes out to do odd jobs, which is quite tiring, but she earns enough money to feed our family." Xiaohong's eyes were bright, "Although the days are quite hard, my mother's spirit is very good now, and I think it is stronger than when I was in the town." ”

Before in the town, Wang Guihua had resentment and hatred in his heart, and he ignored his two daughters too much. And now, although Wang Guihua is still patriarchal, he relies on her and Xiaomei very much, and will discuss anything with her, which makes Xiaohong feel that hope is ahead.

"You're all good boys. It will get better and better in the future. Xu Zhenhua was a little embarrassed, thinking that it was really strange that the character of the second child could give birth to an honest and obedient child like Xiaohong Xiaomei.

Thankfully, these children don't follow their parents.

Xu Zhenhua felt fortunate in his heart, otherwise, if he asked him to help, he would not be able to help.

On the first day of the burning, Lin Tong came back with her two children and Li Yubo in the village carriage, and when she heard Xu Zhenhua say that she would get living expenses every month, she had expected it and didn't take it to heart.

As soon as the burndown is over, Xu Zhenhua will take them back to Shencheng, and the leave he has taken is long enough, and he can't delay it at home any longer.

After leaving two months for living expenses, Lin Tong told Li Yubo again, first send Xiaohong's children to the car, and let her take care of her younger brothers and sisters, and then they got into the car that came to pick up Xu Zhenhua, and arrived in Shencheng that night.

Tie Zhu came back with him, but Xiao Zhu didn't come with him this time, he wanted to stay in the village and stay with the old lady until the beginning of school before going home.

When they arrived at the compound, the family members who were enjoying the shade in the courtyard visited them one after another, and it was already more than seven o'clock when they arrived home after greetings.

Only worried about a little biscuit cake in the car, Lin Tong sent Xiao Nian and Tie Zhu to buy cold noodles outside, the family ate cold noodles, Xu Zhenhua took the two children to the bath to take a bath, and she and Nini took a shower at home.

After taking a shower, the whole body was a lot more comfortable, and Geng Bo came up downstairs and knocked on the door, holding half a watermelon in his hand, "I know that you just came back, there must be nothing at home, come, eat a piece of watermelon to relieve the heat!" ”
