Chapter 235: Eating melons in the era (forty-seven)
"His name is Meng Han, and he sounds like a pitiful man."
"His father went to the army a few years ago, leaving his mother to serve her parents-in-law and work on the farm in her hometown."
"My mother gave birth to two daughters in a row, and she couldn't hold her head high in her husband's family. Her husband neglected the house and her parents-in-law were mean, but she tolerated it all."
"Later, after liberation, his father met true love and wanted to divorce his feudal scum wife."
"Just get divorced, but don't let his mother leave home. Because my parents back home need someone to take care of them."
"As for his biological mother, she has always felt that she could not have a son. She feels sorry for her husband. She has been forced to divorce after working as a cow for all these years, but she has not complained at all."
"She stayed in the countryside like an old mother and continued to serve her parents-in-law. But the second daughter was sent to the city to work as a nanny for her biological father and stepmother."
"His father was very satisfied with his mother. One time when he went home to visit his parents, he gave his mother a chance to get pregnant as if he was kind."
"In the past year, I have indeed given birth to a son, and this son is Meng Han!"
After cooking, Meng Yao took off her apron and ran over to chat with her best friend.
After hearing Gu Qingcheng ask about his little apprentice, he shared it with Gu Qingcheng with a look of "It's hard to explain".
Gu Qingcheng:......
Depend on it!
This is really stupid.
Compared with the so-called "superiors" in the courtyard, Meng Han's father has fallen below the bottom line of human morality.
This damn thing is no longer Chen Shimei, but...
Even Gu Qingcheng, who is so knowledgeable and talented, cannot think of an appropriate adjective.
"Actually, the most irritating thing is Meng Han's own mother. If only she could handle it, she wouldn't be so humble and miserable!"
"It's okay if she's not living well. After all, it's her own choice. But what about the three children? They have no choice."
"The eldest daughter was exchanged for the bride price by her parents-in-law and married to a widower who loved to beat his wife."
"The second daughter was sent to the city to work as a nanny to serve her stepmother and half-sister."
"I heard that their bastard I want to marry him to the leader's son who got sick because of his promiscuity."
"A year ago, Meng Han's biological mother became ill and could not take care of others, so she was kicked out by her parents-in-law."
"Meng Han was only fourteen years old. When he saw his own mother living on the street and dying of illness, he completely broke out."
"He ran to the city, found me, the bastard, and made a fuss."
"Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. As soon as he wears shoes, his momentum naturally weakens."
"In order to appease Meng Han, that Chen Shimei spent money to give his ex-wife a grand burial."
"I got Meng Han a job as a hotel apprentice again."
"Oh, by the way, there is also the second daughter, who he doesn't dare to 'sell' anymore."
"Now, Meng Han and his second sister depend on each other. My yard happened to be empty, so I rented it to them!"
Speaking of this, Meng Yao was really filled with emotion.
Sure enough, no matter what time, there are such bastards who have fallen below the moral bottom line.
What's even more annoying is that this kind of person actually lives a good life.
Although Meng Yao is an ancient man, he believes in the three obediences and the four virtues in his heart.
But she personally created a big family that has been passed down for a hundred or two hundred years, and she is an independent and strong person.
Another extremely important point is that Meng Yao values rules.
Meng Han's parents obviously didn't follow the rules.
This made Meng Yao very disdainful.
Meng Han, on the other hand, was young and had the courage to fight tooth and nail.
In addition, the young man has a very sensitive sense of taste and has a golden tongue.
This made Meng Yao pay more attention to it.
She had already come up with the idea of taking Meng Han as her personal disciple.
Meng Yao decided to observe Meng Han for another year or two to make sure that the child was of good character and reliable, and then teach him all his cooking skills.
Gu Qingcheng: ...Oh, it’s more than that.
Why am I looking at this? Between the two of you, hey hey hey!
Huoshui: ...You are as noble as the Queen of Heaven, but you have become so gossipy?
Look at her little appearance, she is a real melon-eater!
However, Meng Yao has her own choice as to what opportunities she will have in life.
Gu Qingcheng believes that with Meng Yao's reason and strength, she will have a happy ending.
Even if it’s not perfect, Meng Yao probably won’t regret it——
She was not controlled, she was coerced!
All this is her own choice!
…
Fourth daughter-in-law Gu seems to have adapted to the daily routine of eating and carrying melons.
After finishing the housework every day, I would take a sewing basket and sew clothes while chatting with others.
As for Gu Qingcheng, she was quite used to hearing new gossip every day when she came back.
However, when it comes to eating melons, you often end up eating it yourself.
Gu Qingcheng came home from get off work as usual that day, but did not see Gu's fourth wife at the intersection.
She couldn't help but wonder.
The aunts and ladies who were nesting at the entrance of the alley and whispering became "excited" when they saw her.
They were chatting more and more passionately.
Gu Qingcheng raised his eyebrows:...Are you talking about me?
Gu Qingcheng was confused, but she didn't stop.
She walked straight to her small courtyard.
The door is closed!
This is very abnormal.
Whether it was the second sister-in-law Gu or the fourth daughter-in-law Gu now, they were used to living in the countryside and rarely closed the door in broad daylight.
Gu Qingcheng became more and more certain that something had happened at home.
She pushed hard, and the large black carved iron door was bolted on the inside.
She had no choice but to ring the doorbell.
Ding dong, ding dong rang a few times before a faint voice came from the house asking: "Who is it?"
"I!"
Gu Qingcheng answered loudly.
Hearing her voice, there seemed to be movement in the room.
Immediately afterwards, Gu's fourth wife hugged Qiao Xiangyang and ran out quickly.
Click!
Pulling down the door latch, Gu's fourth daughter-in-law stepped aside to let Gu Qingcheng in.
Gu Qingcheng:......
It's even more abnormal.
"Brother and sister, something happened at home?"
"Could it be——"
Gu Qingcheng's eyes passed over the face of Gu's fourth daughter-in-law, and finally fell on Qiao Xiangyang, who was almost five months old.
"Qiaoer's grandparents came to visit?"
In the twelfth month of last year, Gu Qingcheng gave birth.
Leaders, colleagues, and former neighbors all came to visit after hearing the news.
The one who never showed up was actually the child’s biological grandparents.
Gu Qingcheng also had a guess about this——
It’s not that they don’t want to come, it’s that they don’t dare!
Gu Qingcheng is no longer what she used to be. She is no longer the little daughter-in-law from the countryside who is bullied, but is Master Gu, whom the leaders of major factories strive to be friends with!
With a high status and money, Gu Qingcheng's family also has many apprentices and family members.
Old man Qiao was the shrewdest, and he had not forgotten that his ex-daughter-in-law was capable of kicking a solid wooden stool into pieces.
Old man Qiao indeed cherishes his grandson, but he cherishes his life even more.
Before he was sure of Gu Qingcheng's attitude, he would never dare to hit the stone with an egg!
Yes, Old Man Qiao is watching.
He wanted to wait until some time later, when the limelight had passed, and let his wife go to Gu's house to test things out first.
Therefore, as soon as Gu Qingcheng came back from the hospital and was doing her confinement at home, Mrs. Ma came over several times.
Outside the small courtyard of the Gu family, Mrs. Ma was no longer the aggressive and domineering person she used to be. Instead, she was wiping her tears and saying, "Xiao Ni, just let me see the child."
"I know it was us two old guys who were sorry for you in the past, but no matter how wrong we are, we are still Jianguo's biological father and mother, and the child's biological grandfather and grandmother."
"Yes! My old man wrote a letter of dissolution, but this blood relationship can be broken just by breaking it off?"
"...I'm not here to snatch the child, I just want to see if he can do it?"
Using retreat to advance and deliberately showing weakness, an old shrew like Ma can actually act decently.
Gu Qingcheng doesn't care about reputation, and he won't aggrieve himself for other people's opinions.
However, in life, there are some things that you still have to take into consideration.
Gu Qingcheng would not let herself fall into a passive situation just to vent her anger.
Moreover, Gu Qingcheng is willing to bet that neither Old Man Qiao nor his wife is a person of their word.
They are greedy.
If that's the case, let's have a "praise and kill".
Gu Qingcheng did not stop Ma from visiting her grandson. During the Chinese New Year, she even asked an apprentice to take Qiao Qiao to pay New Year greetings to Old Man Qiao.
Ahem, Qiao Qiao is also narrow-minded and kowtows as soon as he enters the door.
According to the rules in the north, when children kowtow to pay New Year greetings, they must give red envelopes.
Old man Qiao and Mr. Ma were kneeled down by Qiao Qiao like this. No matter how much they despised her as a loser, it was still worth gritting their teeth and giving her a dime of new year's money.
Ma didn't want to give it, so Old Man Qiao glared -
"Are you short-sighted? Or do you want to slap yourself in the face?"
A few days ago, I went crying and complained that I missed my child. It seemed that my ex-daughter-in-law deliberately blocked the old man from getting close to her grandson.
As a result, the former daughter-in-law acted "openly" and directly asked the children to come and pay New Year's greetings to their grandparents.
What a good boy, he kowtows as soon as he enters the door, and the apprentices in the machine factory, the neighbors in the alley, and the neighbors in the courtyard all look at him.
My grandparents are not even willing to give me lucky money.
Who believes that they want to have children?!
People would only say that the male and female couple who co-wrote this movie were acting in movies before.
Where the daughter-in-law is overbearing, it is clearly because the elder is not respectful and loving enough.
It’s only a dime, and if you give it, you’ve fulfilled your own game.
If they don't give it, all the pretense they put forward will be in vain, and the old couple will still be old fools who only recognize money but not people.
In the future, if I try to use "missing my children" as an excuse to visit my grandson, it won't work.
Ma:……
The old lady is called a frustrated person.
Qiaoer is almost four years old, and she has never given her a penny or a piece of candy.
As a result, everyone was kicked out, and they were given a dime just for wishing them a happy New Year!
Qiao Qiao:......
What is this?
Or just appetizers.
On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Qiao Qiao came to eat dumplings again.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Qiao Qiao came to eat Lantern Festival with her grandparents again.
February 2nd, eat fried beans.
Every time Qiao Qiao comes, he will be accompanied by an apprentice.
Mr. Qiao and his wife, who want to put on a show in front of outsiders, should not be too harsh.
I can’t say big fish and big meat, but there must always be some fine grains.
After several times, Old Man Qiao couldn't help but feel distressed.
Qiao Qiao:......
It’s not over yet!
At her grandparents' house, she not only had good food, but also learned how to ask for pocket money.
"Milk! Her grandma loves Hong Hong from our red breeding class and will give her money to buy candies!"
"Grandpa, I know that you love me and Xiangyang the most. Xiangyang has no milk powder. Please think of a way!"
"Milk……"
Both old man Qiao and his wife felt a little regretful.
However, the more money they spent and the more they got into the acting, they couldn't give up on Qiao Xiangyang, their biological grandson.
In desperation, Old Man Qiao actually came up with a "good idea".
