Chapter Twenty-Six: The Nobles Come

However, Zhao Jianzhong was like offering a treasure, taking the box of pastries snatched from his grandson's hands, and sending them directly to the door of his second daughter-in-law, Wang Hongxia, "Hongxia, I got back the pastries that the children wanted to eat yesterday, you hurry up and give them to the three children to taste." ”

When Wang Hongxia heard this, she got up lazily, pushed open the door and looked at the box of pastries in front of her, and her face, which had been tense, finally showed a meaningful smile.

Zhao Jiafei, Zhao Jiamin and Zhao Jiajie, the three brothers and sisters, also immediately surrounded them, and their hands reached directly into the box and snatched them.

Wang Hongxia pinched the last piece of peach crisp in the box, tasted it carefully, and waited until she finished eating before stepping into the kitchen, "Dad, look at my busy feet these days, I didn't even forget to make breakfast today." ”

Zhao Jianzhong looked at the empty pastry box, and squeezed out a wry smile on his face, "It's not the same when you do it, you eat it sooner or later." ”

After the peach crisp incident, Wang Hongxia gave her father-in-law Zhao Jianzhong a good face for two days, and food that could barely satisfy her stomach.

But early in the morning of the third day, she went directly to the dinner table and began to complain that the food was not enough, the children were hungry and thin, and even the dry food that her son Zhao Jiafei needed to prepare when he went to the school was not available at home.

After complaining, Wang Hongxia turned her gaze to Zhao Jianzhong, who was just about to move chopsticks, "Dad, you are the pillar of our family, you have to think of a way for us!" ”

With such a combination of soft and hard, Zhao Jianzhong had to take out some of his savings and let Wang Hongxia take it to buy some food back.

On the same day, Zhao Jianzhong followed the security chief Zhao Jiande to go out again to find out why he was dismissed, but he ran all day but did not get the slightest useful news, and when he got home, his feet were blistered.

"Hongxia, help Dad boil a basin of hot water." Zhao Jianzhong took off the socks on his feet with difficulty and shouted three or four times outside the door, but no one answered.

Zhao Jianzhong stepped on his shoes and just pushed open the door of his room, but found that the light in the room of his second son's family of five was instantly extinguished.

This made Zhao Jianzhong, who used to have a hot meal to eat whenever he went home, and someone was waiting to soak his feet in hot water, and he felt a bad taste for the first time in his heart.

However, what makes him even more unpleasant is still to come.

Since Wang Hongxia asked Zhao Jianzhong for money to buy grain last time, she has reached out to him to ask for money twice in three days under the pretext that her family lacks east and west.

If Zhao Jianzhong gives money, he can still see the good face of his second daughter-in-law for a day or two, if he can't come up with the money, then he will inevitably be starved for a meal or two.

At first, Zhao Jianzhong could forcibly grit his teeth and endure it, but after a long time, he had no choice but to go to the house of other friends in the village, or his eldest son Zhao Yonghai.

It's just that after the last time his three grandchildren, because Ye Qingzhou distributed pastries to the villagers, and scolded the villagers in public for being outsiders who couldn't be beaten with eight poles, and Zhao Jianzhong robbed his grandson Zhao Jiaze's peach cake, and insulted Ye Qingzhou in front of his son's family, in the entire Zhaojia Village, no matter who it was, he didn't give Zhao Jianzhong and Zhao Yongbo's family a good look.

"Yonghai, do you still have food at home?" Zhao Jianzhong, who had been hungry for three meals, came to his eldest son's house and asked straight to the point.

Ye Qingzhou, who had already eaten seven or eight points full, looked at the only vegetable ball left on the plate on the side, raised his hand to pick it up, and ate it slowly.

"Dad, it's a bad luck that you're here today, or I'll let Qingyun do something for you." The filial Zhao Yonghai, although he is becoming more and more disappointed in his father now, the little blood and affection in his bones still make him unable to really do things.

"Ye Qingzhou! You dead old woman! You're serious about going against me, aren't you? Zhao Jianzhong watched Ye Qingzhou take the last vegetable ball away, and couldn't help but stomp his feet directly in anger.

Pointing at her nose, she scolded as before, "You dead mother-in-law, you used to be lazy at home, playing right and wrong, and you didn't have any skills, and you have relied on me to raise you for so many years!" ”

"Now, I have left and come to my eldest son's house to make rice worms! How can there be a shameless woman like you in the world?! In just three or two sentences, Zhao Jianzhong directly denied all the efforts of his wife for so many years of laundry and cooking, giving birth to children, and farming and harvesting vegetables.

"Daddy! You are my father, and my mother is also my mother! It's Jiaze's own grandmother! Moreover, it was our family who kept it many times, and my mother was willing to stay! Zhao Yonghai couldn't listen to his father continue to belittle his mother like this, "Mother is not the so-called rice worm in your mouth!" ”

Even Zhang Qingyun and Zhao Jiaze on the side felt that his words were too hurtful.

"Okay! Zhao Yonghai, you are also taken by that dead mother-in-law now, dare to argue with your father and me? It's really against you! Zhao Jianzhong couldn't accept it at all, the eldest son, who had been the most obedient since he was a child, said such a thing to himself, he directly raised his foot and kicked over the dining table on the side.

"Zhao Yonghai, you white-eyed wolf! In the future, he will no longer be my son of Zhao Jianzhong! Zhao Jianzhong said that, and walked out of the door angrily.

He hadn't walked out of the courtyard yet, but he heard a sudden sound of suona orchestra at the entrance of the village.

However, Zhao Jianzhong knew that no one in the village had a wedding or funeral recently.

Just when he was puzzled, the team had already arrived in front of Zhao Yonghai's house.

Zhao Jianzhong saw that at the front of the procession, a young man wearing silk and satin, with a lofty spirit, like a fairy, holding a set of brocade clothes in both hands, entered the hedged courtyard of his eldest son.

And the middle-aged man who followed behind the man was the man who sent Ye Qingzhou back a few days ago.

Zhao Jianzhong had only seen such a grand pomp in the past when he was married to a wealthy family in the city, or when he had a big birthday, and it took him a long time to react.

When he pulled the people in the team and interrogated him, he realized that the handsome young man who was shocked by him just now turned out to be the richest Dou family in the city, Dou Yuanliang.

And the purpose of Dou Yuanliang's visit this time was to pick up his godmother Ye Qingzhou and go to the city to enjoy happiness.

When Zhao Jianzhong heard the news, he asked three more times in disbelief, and when he saw that Dou Yuanliang personally helped Ye Qingzhou, who was still wearing patches, to come out of the house, he had to believe it.

At this time, Zhao Jianzhong was shocked and curious in his heart - why would the dignified Dou family be a family member, why would he recognize Ye Qingzhou, a useless old woman, as his godmother? !

More often than not, it is full of remorse.

If he, Zhao Jianzhong, did not agree to leave a few days ago, presumably now that he is being taken to the city by the scenery, he will definitely have himself.
