Chapter Ninety-Nine: A Journey to the Great Wall 5
The old woman pursed her lips with a look of disgust, "It's my own granddaughter, I don't plan to do anything, you don't have a belly, the big one is a girl, it's easy for the country to open up a second child, and the small one is still a girl, I told you to leave, don't delay my eldest son to find a daughter-in-law who can give birth to a son, and you won't!"
Speaking of this, the old woman became louder and louder, and she felt that she was too reasonable, "As the old saying goes, if you have a daughter-in-law, you forget your mother, you can't leave me, but I can't watch my eldest son die, no, I said just change Xiaoni and Xiaobing, they are all flesh and blood, don't the boss still believe your brother?
"The child is not a cabbage in the field, how can there be a change of child! This has nothing to do with whether the brother is the brother or not!" The child's mother roared, "As far as the uncle's lazy temperament, if it weren't for my family's Lao Zhao's money, would he be willing to change his son?"
"How do you say this, raise a little soldier, your family will not suffer, when you are old, won't you have a son to support the elderly? Xiao Ni arrived at your brother's house, they can't treat her slowly, his son, but a rare girl, Xiao Ni will never need you to give money, I promise!" The old lady thought that she had grasped the point, and patted her chest with a heartfelt guarantee.
"I don't need you to guarantee, I will raise my daughter, other people's sons, others will also raise themselves!" The child's mother snorted and dropped this sentence, and looked at her husband again, "Lao Zhao, in front of the big guy, what do you mean!"
As soon as these words came out, a room full of people stared at the man, fortunately, this person has an idea, not the kind of foolish and filial person, otherwise it is estimated that he would have divorced early.
I saw him patting his wife's back comfortingly, and pinching his little daughter's hand, which blocked the mother and daughter behind him, and said to his old mother seriously, "Mother, I said earlier, I raise my daughter by myself, if my younger brother is willing to work honestly, I can subsidize it if I have no money, but it is impossible for me to raise my brother's family for nothing!"
"How do you speak, who wants you to raise your brother's family for nothing, I just want you to have a queen!" the old woman insisted, stiffening her neck.
"Let's pull it down, we can't afford to support this after this, and the money spent is enough for my daughter's pension!" muttered the woman hiding behind her husband.
These words stabbed the hornet's nest, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law immediately quarreled upside down, and this scene made Zhuang Minghan, who had never been in contact with shrews scolding the street, startled.
And with the increasing content of the quarrel, coupled with the previous conversation between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the whole thing became clearer and clearer.
It turned out that the family's surname was Zhao, and the hometown was a rural village in the northeast, and the old lady gave birth to two sons.
Because of partiality, the eldest son basically had no status in the family, so he had to work his own, and began to work when he was young, and later became a contractor himself, earning a little money to marry a wife who also came out to work.
Soon after the two got married, they gave birth to a daughter, and the eldest daughter-in-law, who was not pleased with the old lady, had eyes that were not eyes and noses in front of him.
And the youngest son got married very early, taking the daughter of the neighboring village, when the two were just adults, they hooked up together, and the girl had a big belly before she got married, but fortunately, although Zhao Lao Er was spoiled, he was still willing to marry.
Later, the second daughter-in-law gave birth to the eldest grandson of the Zhao family, and she had a special face in front of the old lady.
But no matter whether the old lady is partial or not, the son who has been spoiled since childhood is a lazy and lazy man, no matter how old the man, he is still gnawing at home, not to mention going out to work, going to the field at home, etc., even if he helps to do some housework, he refuses to do some housework.
Later, I became obsessed with playing mahjong with others, and the only thing I was glad about was that it was just a small fight, and I didn't go to gamble. But even so, he has no source of income after all, and his second daughter-in-law is also a delicate flower, seeing that her men don't do anything, she refuses to do anything except occasionally help with housework.
He also gave birth to the eldest grandson of the Zhao family, he is a meritorious person, and he refuses to go out to work, you stay at home every day in the name of taking your children, and often go out to play mahjong with your man.
The old couple had to work hard to farm and feed a family of five, although modern farming is a machine used, and the harvest is good, but as the grandson is getting bigger and bigger, there are more and more places that need to use money, even if there is a bumper harvest every year, the money is not enough.
In addition, every household, farming, farming, and part-time work. Obviously, you can see that your own family is much poorer than others.
So the old couple of the Zhao family began to persuade the younger son to go out to work, but every time he spoke, the younger son said impatiently, "Isn't my brother a contractor? I heard that he earns a lot, and he is also your son, so I don't have money to ask for him!"
In fact, the eldest son of the Zhao family will send 1,000 yuan back to his parents every month, and he will also wrap a big red envelope during the Chinese New Year.
The old couple of the Zhao family were not too embarrassed to speak, after all, a thousand yuan was not a small amount at the beginning, but with the soaring prices and people's incomes getting higher and higher, this thousand yuan is not worth anything.
So they tried to ask their eldest son to give him more.
At this time, a thousand yuan is nothing, but after all, the eldest son of the Zhao family is begging for a living in the city, and he still has a wife and daughter to support, and a house and a car to provide, so how can they imagine that they have a lot of money?
However, considering that after so many years, I still only gave this amount, and discussed it with my wife, although my wife was very dissatisfied, after all, they did not live with their parents, even if they had to support their parents, 1,000 a month, which was already a lot of money in the countryside.
The husband and wife discussed for a long time, and finally decided to increase the price by 500 yuan.
When the old couple of the Zhao family got the money, they were dissatisfied, thinking that the eldest couple was a shuddering person, so the old lady said a lot of sour things in front of the two of them, and the eldest daughter-in-law, who had always been the eldest daughter, finally couldn't bear it anymore when her mother-in-law talked about her daughter, saying that it was okay for them to take more money out, and they had to pay as much as the uncle's family had to pay.
Mrs. Zhao was blocked by her daughter-in-law, don't start scolding, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quarreled, and finally the old lady scolded and went back to the village, and from that day on, the eldest family never went back.
