Chapter 125: Mother's Backer
When it was almost noon, Chen Bingxing took his sister and Zhao Xiaoxing back to the fishing village.
Chen Xingling poured a bowl of water and handed it to Zhao Xiaoxing, poured a bowl himself, and went around the kitchen outside the house to find the old mother.
"Mom, yesterday I gave my mother-in-law all the dried seafood to be exchanged for tea, why did I add a big bag today? If it weren't for the help of the third brother, we wouldn't have been able to screw it at all! ”
Thinking of her mother-in-law's insatiable happy face, Chen Xingling couldn't help but ask, "Mom, it's too much, right?" As for it? ”
Liu Peiyun was washing vegetables, raising her eyes and doting on her.
"Of course! Just because she's Archie's mother, we have to coax her. She only came to Yucheng once in a few years, and all the valuable seafood at home was collected and sent to her! ”
Chen Xingling rolled his eyes and snorted coldly: "Don't pay too much attention to her, she is the kind of greedy and insatiable character, even if you can cut off a whole piece of the sea and give it to her, she will accept it unceremoniously!" ”
Liu Peiyun pursed her lips and whispered: "If she can be happy and treat you better if she cuts it off, we will find a way to cut it a long time ago......"
Chen Xingling was slightly stunned when he heard this, and his eyes turned red instantly.
"Alas!" Liu Peiyun sighed helplessly: "Gu Qi, it's the person you fancy yourself." He's really good and we're all very happy with him. However, there is nothing in the world that you can not worry about. Although you don't want to say it, we all know that Gu Qi has always looked down on you, thinking that we don't have a hukou in the city, as if we are inferior to her. The more she does this, the more we have to carry good things for her, so that she will not look down on you even more. ”
Speaking of this, Liu Peiyun couldn't help choking.
"In the past, when you lived in Shangjing, the postage and phone bills were very expensive, even if we had the heart to send you more things, we didn't have that much money to send you every once in a while. It's different now, the family is much more comfortable, and your mother's family can finally earn face for you, and you must not let Gu Qi treat you harshly......"
Chen Xingling held back his tears, deliberately shook his head and grinned.
"No, your daughter and I are not soft persimmons, and I will not let her bully. Now thousands of miles away, I don't even need to pay attention to her. ”
After all, Liu Peiyun is a person who has come from the past and has seen through many world conditions.
"Some people, even if you want to escape, will never be able to escape. She is Gu Qi's mother, as long as you follow Gu Qi for a day, you have to face her. ”
Chen Xingling muttered, "I know." Archie isn't here, she's here, I'll do what I need to do, no ambiguity. ”
Although she was angry and even resentful of her mother-in-law in her heart, she never shirked the responsibility of her daughter-in-law. I can't be warm, but I won't sweep her out of the house and ignore her.
"That's right." Liu Peiyun smiled slightly: "You don't have to please her, you can give her food when you should eat, and buy it for her." This is your responsibility as Archie's daughter-in-law, and you can't shirk it. You did what you had to do, no one could find fault with you, and Archie naturally loved you more. ”
Chen Xingling drank the water and scooped the water to wash the dishes.
"Don't worry, I've always done that. Not for anything else, but for Archie to be my beloved husband. I know you're trying to save face for me, but it's almost there, so there's no need to be too attentive. ”
"Wrong." Liu Peiyun snorted lightly at the tip of her nose: "Ling, you are still too tender." ”
Chen Xingling touched his nose and explained: "My mother-in-law doesn't need to curry favor, give her three points of color, and she can open more than a dozen dyeing shops." Just mean it, there's no need to be so nice to her. ”
"You can." Liu Peiyun shook his head: "I can't with your father and brothers." We gave her enough face, just so that you can have face in your in-law's family. Our family has never reached out to Gu Qi to ask for a penny, borrowed a penny, and never went to your in-law's house to ask for a little dowry - all for you! ”
Chen Xingling thought for a moment, intuition that she might have overlooked something.
When they hurriedly decided to get married, Gu Qi took Director Guo to personally propose marriage and offer a bride price, but her parents didn't get a penny, and turned around and scraped together more than 100 yuan for her as a dowry.
She has not been here in Yucheng all these years, Gu Qi is still close to her mother's family, there should have been some money to borrow and repay, but I didn't expect that there was no point!
Liu Peiyun lowered her voice: "We don't want to raise our daughter, we just hope that our daughter can live well after she gets married, and don't be bullied and abused." Take other people's hands short, eat other people's mouth short. If your mother's family is self-reliant and self-reliant, and you don't bother your son-in-law and his family, you can stand up in your mother-in-law's family. We generously took out things for your mother-in-law, just so that she would not look down on you and let you straighten your back in front of her. ”
Chen Xingling was deeply moved, and whispered: "Thank you, Mom, I'...... Got it. ”
The beloved son of parents has far-reaching plans for them.
Whether a woman can be valued and respected in her in-law's family is not only related to her own ability, but also inextricably linked to her mother's family behind her.
From the very beginning, her parents had planned and calculated for her, but they couldn't imagine that Gu Qi would suddenly go abroad, let alone that she would go back to her hometown with her mother-in-law.
Shangjing City is too far away from Yucheng, and her mother-in-law is strong and greedy for money, and her parents can't save the fire from far away and have nothing to do in the end.
Now that she is well, she is back under the nose of her parents, she is her biggest backer, and her parents and brothers are the second biggest backer.
In the original book, although the heroine misses her mother's family very much, she can't resist the strong mother-in-law, and she is reluctant to part with her son, so she will delay and leave the capital.
Surrounded by vicious people, the long-suppressed aggrieved environment and the fatigue of day after day made her lose her desire to survive and live, and finally died.
If she can be self-reliant and self-reliant, if she is a strong and powerful backer behind her, why would she fall into a tragic end!
This time, she understood it thoroughly.
Liu Peiyun picked up the dish and shook it vigorously.
"Go and get the little tiger back, we're ready for lunch."
Chen Xingling looked around and asked, "Where did the stinky boy go?" Playing in the sand by the sea? ”
"Nope." Liu Peiyun suddenly remembered something and explained: "In the morning, Principal Bai of the school came and said that he would take Xiaohuzi to get a math problem. I asked Da Qiang and Er Qiang to accompany me. ”
Chen Xingling frowned when he heard this: "Make a math problem?" ”
Liu Peiyun smiled excitedly: "Principal Bai teaches mathematics, I heard that our little tiger is very good at solving problems, so I found a math problem yesterday afternoon to find little tiger." Xiaohuzi didn't know what was going on, so he counted it out by brushing and writing. Principal Bai said that the school was quieter, and he picked up Xiaohuzi to go to the classroom to do questions today. ”
Chen Xingling frowned and asked, "In Huiqiao Primary School?" ”
"Yes!" Liu Peiyun reminded: "You go to your second brother's house and take a bicycle to ride over, and walk on a hot day." ”
Chen Xingling hurriedly wiped his hands and ran out quickly.
A few minutes later, she came to the gate of Huiqiao Fishing Village, and just wanted to push her bicycle in to look for it, when she saw Da Qiang and Erqiang's two nephews leading Xiaohuzi out.
"Mom!" Xiaohuzi shook off his cousin's hand and came out with a smoke.
Da Qiang and Er Qiang happily chased after him and shouted, "Auntie! ”
Chen Xingling put the bicycle aside, squatted down to check Xiaohuzi's body, and found that his body was white and clean, not like a mischievous appearance covered in mud and sand when he played on the beach, and he didn't know whether it was good or bad for a while.
Da Qiang Erqiang smiled excitedly: "Auntie! Huzi can write a lot of questions! I don't know how he calculated, the words are still crooked, but the principal said he did it right! ”
"Our tiger is amazing!"
Xiaohuzi grinned proudly and asked, "Mom, is there anything delicious?" I'm so hungry! ”
Chen Xingling's chin raised slightly: "Go, get in the car!" Let's go home for dinner! ”
Daqiang hugged Xiaohuzi to the back seat of the bicycle.
"Wait! Wait a minute! Suddenly, someone shouted from behind.
Chen Xingling turned his head and saw a short and fat man in his fifties chasing after him, waving his hand as he ran.
The second strong on the side reminded: "Auntie! Principal Bai shouted at us! ”
