"If you have something to say, please tell me slowly so that you don't make a fuss about severing the relationship right away."
It is still late summer, the weather in Hong Kong City is neither cold nor hot, and grandma turns on the incandescent light in the main room. After turning on the lamp, he picked up the kettle and started making tea. Grandpa lit up the cigarette "bah, bah" to learn about the actual situation of his daughter's late-night visit.
Liang Meijuan shook her head: "I don't want to say it now. Brother, sister-in-law, they will be here soon."
"Did you call them too?"
Grandpa asked road.
"I originally wanted to go directly to their house to argue, but Lao Chen was worried about something happening, so he said we would talk here and you will be the referee."
Liang Meijuan said stiffly.
Grandpa nodded. He naturally knew his daughter’s temper. Fortunately, his son-in-law had a gentler personality and knew how to use strategies when encountering problems.
"But what makes the third child so angry?"
Grandpa was speculating in his mind.
At this time, grandma also came over with two cups of tea. She also sat silently next to her, looking at her daughter for a while and her son-in-law for a while.
Not long after, there was the sound of walking outside the door. My uncle and aunt also lived in the countryside, only a 5-minute walk away from my grandpa’s house.
The night in the countryside is very quiet, so you can still hear the voice of your aunt complaining: "Liang Meijuan is so nervous in the middle of the night. Is there something that I can't talk about tomorrow..."
However, after the two of them entered the door, they found Liang Meijuan with a cold face, and the aunt immediately shut her mouth and stopped talking.
Now that everyone is here, Liang Meijuan finally begins to tell the reason.
"Tonight, I called Chen Hansheng. Actually, my intention was to ask about Xiaohai."
Liang Meijuan glanced at her aunt: "Chen Hansheng is in college anyway. , there are cafeterias and dormitories, so I don’t need to worry too much. On the contrary, I don’t know what’s going on with Liang Xiaohai, and he doesn’t join Rocket 101.”
No one doubts that Liang Xiaohai is Liang Meijuan’s relative. Nephew, it is normal for an aunt to care about her nephew.
"It was at this time that Lao Chen and I learned that Rocket 101 had gone bankrupt a few days ago."
Liang Meijuan's face was filled with sad emotions: "Hansheng was independent when he was a child." The awareness is too strong. We didn’t know when Rocket 101 was founded, and we didn’t know when it collapsed. In short, he just did it all by himself.”
Grandpa, grandpa, uncle and aunt looked at each other after hearing this.
The influence of Rocket 101 has always been in domestic universities, but it is rare in daily life, let alone in the countryside. So they only know that Chen Hansheng has started a business, and the benefits of being reported on TV are pretty good. , once became the pride of the family.
I didn’t expect it to go bankrupt so soon, but my aunt was also wondering what this matter had to do with her.
“I heard that the company went bankrupt, so I asked him if he had any debts. In fact, from my perspective, studying hard is much more practical than starting a business.If there is any foreign debt, Lao Chen and I will help pay it off, and he can concentrate on his studies. "
Liang Meijuan continued: "Chen Hansheng said there was no difficulty, and also praised Liang Xiaohai and his girlfriend for being very enthusiastic. "
Liang Meijuan paused here. Her aunt didn't realize it at first. Liang Xiaohai should be single. Then she thought about it. This girlfriend should be the girl from other provinces who received the "100,000 yuan" gift. .
"Then, why are they so enthusiastic? "
The uncle took it as a story and urged his sister to continue.
" they said. ”
Liang Meijuan almost burst out from clenched teeth: “If Hansheng wants to borrow money, but has no food to eat and is hungry, you can go to the factory to find them, and it will be okay to give them a few meals.” of. "
The hall fell silent instantly, and everyone immediately understood what was going on. These words were too harsh.
"Lao Chen and I are not dead yet. "
Liang Meijuan became excited: "What do they mean, if Lao Chen and I are alive, can Chen Hansheng beg for food? "
My uncle had a sly expression, and my aunt gave him a fierce look. They are just here to cause trouble, and you still asked stupidly.
It was quiet for a long time, grandpa." Dangdangdang knocked on the dry pipe and said slowly: "Maybe Xiaohai also wanted to help, but his expression was wrong. He stopped studying after graduating from junior high school, and his personality is straight, far inferior to Han Shenghui. Talking. "
"Yes, yes, maybe the child said the wrong thing. "
Grandpa didn't say anything, and my aunt didn't say anything even though she knew she was in the wrong. When grandpa spoke, she quickly agreed: "Besides, we didn't recognize that girlfriend. Liang Xiaohai will definitely not marry her. of. "
"That's it? ”
When Liang Meijuan heard her grandfather’s explanation, she suddenly became quiet and looked at her father blankly.
Chen Zhaojun thought that this was a sign that his wife was going to be angry. , he was about to say a few words of comfort, but Liang Meijuan suddenly cried.
Lao Chen was panicked and distressed, and quickly helped his wife wipe her tears. Liang Meijuan pushed her husband's hands away, wiped them away and said, "I I have not been loved since I was a child, but I accept this. I have two older brothers and a younger sister. The middle one is the least concerned. I understand all this. ”
“My family used to be poor, and we had to kill a chicken once during the Chinese New Year. I gave two legs to my brother, and chicken wings to my fourth brother. I could only eat one chicken foot, and you even deliberately said that eating chicken feet would make me stand taller. Straight, we will go far in the future..."
Chen Zhaojun felt that Liang Meijuan was going further and further, and he was worried that things would get bigger and bigger. He couldn't help but remind him: "What are you talking about? There is no need to mention the matter again. ”
“No, I have to mention it. "
Liang Meijuan simply broke the pot and said: "I can be a little angry myself, but why should my son be treated unfairly? "
In fact, this situation is also common. The poorer the family in Northern Jiangsu, the more sons are favored over daughters. Liang Meijuan is still a girl in the middle, so naturally she does not receive attention.
This tradition will only change in the future as the average quality of the people improves.
For example, Xiao Hongwei and Lu Yuqing, two regular college students, do not have this kind of thinking at all. Lao Xiao really puts Xiao Rongyu in his heart, and "Princess Xiao" is a real title.
"Okay, you said you can run far by eating chicken feet, so I'll keep my head down and run as hard as I can."
Liang Meijuan fell into memories: "After I graduated from high school, While working in a cotton spinning mill of a state-owned enterprise, I insisted on attending night school. After I got my diploma, the Personnel Bureau happened to be recruiting people, so I went to sign up. Sister Sun, who was in charge, saw that I was more diligent, so she gave me one of the remaining positions selected by a related company. ."
"So, I ran from the countryside to the city, where I met Lao Chen."
Liang Meijuan glanced at Chen Zhaojun, with a look on her face. His expression became gentler: "Later, I gave birth to a son. Although he was not obedient at all and often made me angry, but I was only such a son."
"Those things in the past I Just figure it out for yourself, but why does Chen Hansheng still suffer from such cowardice?"
Liang Meijuan asked: "After Lao Chen and I got married, we moved from the countryside to the city, but the things at home were nothing. "No."
"Have I, Liang Meijuan, ever been short of money to buy cigarettes during the holidays?"
"For so many years, if any of my relatives need help, I and I Did Lao Chen recommend it? "
"Liang Xiaohai went on a blind date and Chen Hansheng came back from school hundreds of kilometers away, and a few cigarettes were scattered. Did we care about it?"
...
When they were young, their conditions were very average. However, after Chen Han was promoted to junior high school, their material conditions became more and more relaxed. Some relatives went to the city to do business and were able to provide help.
At the end, Liang Meijuan slapped the table: "It's not like you don't know Chen Hansheng's bad temper. If someone else said it this way, Liang Xiaohai wouldn't be able to do this unless he got slapped a few times. Is it passable?"
"Liang Meijuan, please be careful what you say. Who dares to try if Liang Xiaohai wants to be slapped?"
Although the aunt is angry that her son is too stupid, but She also couldn't tolerate talking about her son like that.
Down below, the sister-in-law and sister-in-law started to argue with each other as usual. Chen Zhaojun rubbed his temples helplessly. He was a little suspicious of his wife's motives.
The Chen Hansheng incident was just an introduction. Liang Meijuan seemed to want to tell all the grievances she had suffered over the years.
"However, I still support it!"
Chen Zhaojun smoked a cigarette with an honest face, but in his heart he thought that his son was wronged, so I will help him.If my wife speaks out, I will help her stand up if she has any grievances.
We, Old Chen, are not afraid of anyone!
