Chapter 22: The Love to Be Shared
Shuying said: "I was just a small clerk in your business house before, and the family conditions were not good, but your mother let you marry me without any objection, this is really the greatest blessing in my life, I never thought that this kind of lucky thing would happen to me." But it did happen to me again. ”
Weicai said: "Then don't think about it, teach your husband and children at home, and go out with your mother to play cards and go shopping if you have nothing to do, okay?" ”
Shuying nodded obediently, and then asked, "Weicai, you can give our daughter a nice name." I thought about it for a while, but I didn't come up with anything, so I'll wait until I go back to Hangzhou today and you'll pick it up. ”
Wei Cai thought for a while and said, "Just call it Yiyi, Tan Yiyi, what do you think?" ”
She said, "Well, yes, that's nice, and I like the name." Yiyi, the little bird depends on people, Chu Chu is moving, I see pity. ”
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, Yiyi was four years old. With her jet-black hair, snow-white skin, and a pair of big watery eyes, she looks like a cute doll. Shuying bought her all kinds of beautiful little dresses, as well as all kinds of toys for girls to play with. Mrs. Tan also doted on this granddaughter very much, and bought her whatever she wanted without blinking. This has made Yiyi a little arrogant since she was a child, and she is the only one.
She looked at her mother's bulging belly and asked, "Mom, what's in your belly?" How is it so big? ”
Shuying said: "It's a little brother, maybe a little sister." ”
Yiyi said: "Why do you want to give me younger brothers and sisters, if you give birth to younger brothers and sisters, you won't like me." It's just my brother. ”
Shuying said: "No, my mother will love you the same!" ”
Yiyi said reluctantly: "I don't, I don't want little brothers and sisters, Mom, if you are born, I won't like it!" Crying stubbornly, she didn't want her love to be shared by the little brother or sister in her belly.
The gentle Shuying was at a loss, and Mrs. Tan was angry and said, "Yiyi, no matter how willful you are, mom, grandma, and dad really don't like you." ”
She looked at Mrs. Tan's serious face, and felt very unhappy, and rushed into her bedroom in a huff. Then the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, she simply snuck into the kitchen and sprinkled a large handful of salt in the chicken soup that the cook was making for the old lady.
Mrs. Tan naturally spit it out after taking a sip and called the cook: "Dazhu, why is today's soup so salty?" ”
Dazhu hurriedly said: "I put it according to the usual amount, what's the matter?" ”
Mrs. Tan said, "Did you not sleep a lot yesterday and put salt in it once?" ”
Dazhu said, "No, I went to bed early last night. ”
No one would suspect that it was four-year-old Yiyi's doing. She was snickering in the corner.
Da Zhu returned to the kitchen full of doubts, intending to make a new pot of soup, just when Ah Hui came in, he said angrily: "Ah Hui, are you not used to me, you want to deliberately fix me." ”
Ah Hui said angrily: "It's really inexplicable, do you think I, Ah Hui, am such a person?" You're spewing blood, you. ”
Dazhu said: "I remember that I tasted a little bit before I came out of the pot, and it was just salty, so why did it change its flavor when it was served on the table?" It's just the two of us in the kitchen, who else can you be? ”
Ah Hui jumped up angrily and scolded: "I, Ah Hui, have never done such a thing that lacks morality!" Don't wronged me! ”
Dazhu scolded and reprepared the ingredients, and Ah Hui was not to be outdone and scolded Dazhu while washing dishes there.
Shuying heard the noise and walked into the kitchen and said, "What are you arguing about?" ”
Ah Hui said aggrievedly: "Young grandma, today's chicken soup is too salty, Dazhu has to say that I put the salt on him, you have to be the master for me, do you know that I am a human being?" ”
Shuying asked Dazhu, "Are you sure you didn't put more salt?" Zhu said: "I tasted it before it came out of the pot, and it tasted just right." ”
Ah Hui said: Hell, I didn't put it anyway. ”
Shuying said: "Then don't quarrel, this is the case, don't let your wife know that you are quarreling, she can't see the disharmony in the family the most." ”
When Shuying returned to the room, she saw that Yiyi was making clothes out of small rags for the rag doll, she picked it up and looked at it, and praised it: "What a beautiful little dress, Yiyi is awesome." Yiyi proudly raised her pretty little face. Shuying pulled Yiyi in front of her, touched her hair and said, "But Yiyi got into trouble today, didn't she?" ”
Yiyi said: "Mom, I didn't get into trouble, I didn't do anything wrong. ”
Shuying said, "Did you put a big handful of salt in grandma's chicken soup?" You have to tell the truth and be an honest child. ”
Yiyi stubbornly said, "I didn't." ”
Shuying said: "You are lying, lying is not a good child, grandma just said a word about you, you put so much salt in the chicken soup." You can't do that next time. ”
Yiyi still stubbornly refused to admit it: "Mom, I really didn't put salt." ”
Shuying shook her head and said, "If you don't admit it again, I'll tell Dad when Dad comes back." ”
Yiyi immediately admitted it obediently. Shuying was very angry, but she still controlled her emotions and said, "Do you know that the consequences of your doing this are serious? Uncle Dazhu and Aunt Ah Hui both complained to each other about this matter. How sad it would be if Grandma knew about the salt you put in her. ”
Yiyi said: "But grandma yelled at me so fiercely for the first time because of the one in your stomach?" ”
Shuying said: "Adults should educate children, only if they feel sorry for you and really love you, they will educate you." ”
Yiyi nodded as if he understood.
Shuying felt a little worried in her heart. She always felt that something was wrong with this child.
Two months later, Shuying's second child was born, and it was indeed a white and chubby boy. At the full moon banquet, Mrs. Tan couldn't close her mouth with a smile. Shuying and Weicai greeted the guests warmly, Ah Hui hugged the child, and everyone congratulated the Tan family on both their children. Only Yiyi's face was cloudy, very unhappy.
"Yiyi, let's go play with the ball," Tan Xiangxiang, the son of Weicai Tang Brother Tan Zhengfei, held the ball and jumped up and down to find Yiyi to play.
Yiyi said: "I don't want to play. ”
Xiang Xiang said, "What's wrong?" Yiyi, aren't you happy? ”
Yiyi hated and said, "Look at those adults, it's so happy." ”
Xiang Xiang said, "Aren't you happy? It's fun to have a little brother. ”
Yiyi said: "He will take away my parents, as well as my grandmother's love for me, why should I be happy?" ”
Xiang Xiang said incomprehensibly: "I want to have a younger brother!" I really don't understand what you think. Let's go, Yiyi, let's go play ball in the garden. ”
Yiyi curled her mouth and said, "I'm not going, I'm not happy." ”
