Lu's father didn't want to make things too serious. He didn't care about Zhou's family, but also about his son-in-law's face: "Don't leave in a hurry, let's have a meal!"
Zhou Xingwang also hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him to stay.
As soon as Weng and son-in-law opened their mouths, the Zhou family did not leave so neatly. The situation was too tense today. If we just left like this, how would we be able to interact with each other in the future? How could the Zhou family have the nerve to visit?
Zhou's father hesitated a little: "My dear, you see what happened is because the child is not sensible. The child's mother is a spoiler, so it ended up like this. In the end, it's all a misunderstanding. You better not be angry."
Now that things have happened, what else can be done?
Father Lu didn't want to forgive the Zhou family, but they were his granddaughter's relatives. He suppressed his displeasure and forced a smile: "Where did the in-laws go? Since it was a misunderstanding, just make it clear."
Chu Yunli answered: "It depends on how far it goes. Don't come to your door again every three days to ask me to adopt the child. The result is that the child's hands and feet are dirty, and I have to take the trouble to clean up. Just beat him.
, the key is that the child has a biological mother, “At that time, everyone said that I didn’t want to raise the child, so I deliberately beat the person to death.” She said plausibly: “To be honest, I really don’t think that I have done anything serious. If this matter is left to Jiaojiao today,
I have to chop off her hands."
The implication is that she showed mercy.
The Zhou family looked green and pale at times, but they were the ones who were at fault, so it was hard to refute.
Mr. Yang didn't want to lose such a wealthy relative. Although he didn't know how much the couple brought home every year, his family must not have suffered a loss. In the final analysis, if Zhou Xingwang did not subsidize the food and clothing of the old couple, they would have to come from scratch.
The money from the public house was earned by the two brothers through hard work.
She quickly regained her composure and forced a smile: "Brothers and sisters, I just saw that the child was seriously injured, so I said some unpleasant words in a hurry. In fact, that's not what I thought in my heart. Don't be angry.
I'm angry, I apologize to you."
As she spoke, she bowed.
Zhou's mother saw it in her eyes and said with a smile: "We are all one family, there is no overnight feud. Since it is a misunderstanding, don't take it to heart."
Chu Yunli smiled half-heartedly: "You are not the one who suffers, of course you will say so."
As soon as these words came out, the Zhou family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't agree. Even though Yang was determined to join the primary school and be inferior, she couldn't help but said at this moment: "Brothers and sisters, where did you suffer? The one who was injured was Guishu. He was injured so seriously. He still has to be injured."
It’s going to take a while. Not to mention suffering, I’ll have to call in a doctor soon…”
Chu Yunli asked curiously: "Did I ask you to send him here?"
With just this sentence, Zhou's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were immediately speechless.
The more they watched, the more the quarrel became more and more tense. Father Lu spoke up to smooth things over: "What about that, Xiaoqing, you go buy some food and come back to cook. After such a quarrel for a long time, your father-in-law and mother-in-law are still hungry."
Chu Yunli had already guessed that this would be the case.
It’s no wonder that Lu’s father has no temper and takes the initiative to pass the ladder to the Zhou family. What he wants is to let his daughter and son-in-law live a good life, and he also needs to consider Jiaojiao. After all, he is having such a big fight with the Zhou family that he just lets outsiders laugh without telling them.
The relationship between the couple will also be affected.
Chu Yunli could understand his thoughts, but she didn't intend to follow his instructions. The Zhou family killed the whole Lu family... and even cooked for them. The Zhou family dreamed faster.
"Dad, we are still busy at the teahouse. Don't worry about things at home. Go to work quickly! If you delay for a while, your wages will be deducted again. You have been working for a long time today. If you can't get a penny, you can't get it.
What a shame."
Father Lu originally wanted to go back to work after finishing the work, but things turned out like this and the two families were about to become enemies. He had given up the idea of going to work today and thought of staying and drinking with the Zhou brothers.
Take two cups and wipe this matter away completely.
"I have already taken leave, and my in-laws are here. I won't go there today."
Chu Yunli stretched out her hand to pull him: "That won't work! Don't worry, I will treat you well."
As he spoke, he pushed the person out of the door.
Lu Xiaoqing's mother has been sick since she was a child. She has also learned to be diligent and thrifty in running the house. She never spends money and is very calculating. In the eyes of Lu's father, her daughter really can't bear to do half a day's work for him... But that's not the case.
Yes, he has to stay and entertain his in-laws.
It's not that he can't break free from his daughter, but he's reluctant to use all his strength. What if he hurts someone?
By the time he came to his senses, the door behind him had been closed.
Lu's father looked at the doubtful eyes of everyone outside and felt helpless. He thought that his daughter would not neglect her husband's family, and since the matter had been explained clearly, he simply stopped pressing and went to the teahouse.
In the yard, Zhou's father didn't think what his daughter-in-law would do to him, so he said casually: "It doesn't have to cost too much. Just cook a little home-cooked food to fill your stomach."
Chu Yunli sneered: "There is no food, the family is busy. Now that we have made it clear that we don't hold grudges against each other, there is no need to sit down and eat together. Let's go slowly without seeing you off!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Xingwang's eyes widened. After reacting, he hurriedly stepped forward and pulled his wife's sleeves: "What are you talking about? Have you forgotten what dad just told me?"
Chu Yunli looked sideways at him: "I don't listen to everything dad says. We have been married for so many years, and you only know my temper?"
Zhou Xingwang was dumbfounded: "But..." Those are his family members. It makes everyone look bad. How can they move around in the future?
"What?" Chu Yunli looked confused: "Is it wrong for me to hit someone?"
Zhou Guishu really stole something. Zhou Xingwang shook his head subconsciously: "That's right."
Chu Yunli nodded: "Since there is nothing wrong, then I don't need to apologize. No one is looking at the shop in front of me. I stay here to cook. Who is responsible for the delayed business? What if an old customer happens to come and see
While we were away, we went to someone else's house and were deceived by someone else's house. What if we don't come to our house again?" She looked at the Zhou family with unhappy expressions: "Since we are all a family, you must want us to
Okay, can you bear to watch our business being taken away?"
She said this as if Zhou's family would suffer heavy losses if she stayed for a meal.
Zhou's father finally noticed that his daughter-in-law was not calm. Seeing his son's cowardly look, he suddenly became angry and said, "Let's go!"
After saying this, he took the lead and said: "Don't be short-sighted, our family is not short of a meal."
Chu Yunli watched them turn around and said mockingly: "Yes, you are not short of thirty-one copper coins, nor are you short of a meal. If anyone mentions the adoption in the future, I will fall out."
Mother Zhou's feet froze.
After all, she hasn't given up on this idea yet. Lu Jiaojiao is just a girl, and she can't keep her shop at all.
Besides, if the girl's family gained wealth, it would be an advantage to outsiders. She felt heartbroken just thinking about it.
Zhou Xingwang looked at his wife and couldn't help but chase after her.
Chu Yunli was too lazy to care and took Lu Jiaojiao to the shop. The sister-in-law next door was watching, and then she came over and said, "I heard that the Zhou family has come to give you trouble?"
"I think life is too easy, so I have to find some quarrel." Chu Yunli snorted coldly: "I won't tolerate it, I just rubbed him away."
The sister-in-law shook her head: "You have such a tough temper. Jiaojiao's father will be angry with you if you turn around."
"If he is being reasonable, not only will he not be angry with me, but he will blame the Zhou family." Chu Yunli tidied the counter: "If he blames me, then he is mentally ill. I will not deal with sick people.
polite."
"You are husband and wife." Sister-in-law advised earnestly: "Don't make things too tense."
It was precisely because Lu Xiaoqing missed the relationship between husband and wife for many years that she retreated again and again. It was the same in the previous life. At the beginning, it was clearly promised that Xiaowu would be sent over, but it turned out that Zhou Guishu came the next day.
That's all. She didn't want to adopt an adopted child anyway, and she had clearly refused. Now that the child is here, she should teach him. After discovering that Zhou Guishu had stolen something, she thought that she could not embarrass Zhou Xingwang, so she privately lectured Zhou Guishu.
Just let it go so gently.
However, Zhou Guishu is not a good guy at all. Stealing coins from the shop is a trivial matter. The key is that he is evil-hearted.
Chu Yunli knew that her sister-in-law had good intentions, so she didn't dwell on this matter and turned to other things.
On the other side, after Zhou Guishu left everyone's sight, he still felt his cheeks were hot. What happened today was so embarrassing. Apart from being ashamed and angry, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
He walked slowly on the path back to the village, and soon he saw the Zhou family behind him.
When Zhou's mother saw her grandson, she had a look of hatred on her face: "You kid, how could you steal a copper plate?"
This is obviously asking for death. Just be patient and wait until Lu Xiaoqing is happy. Then everything will be his. Why be in such a hurry?
Zhou Guishu noticed everyone's reproachful glances. As the eldest child in the family, he had long learned to be sweet and especially good at pleasing people. At this moment, he opened his mouth and said: "Mistress, I know you can't take that copper plate. But I heard that the town
There is a new maltose seller, and the candy is very sweet. You work hard all year round, so I want to buy you some candy."
He looked at his mother again: "My younger brothers and sisters at home can't eat a bite of candy for a year, so I..." At this point, he looked annoyed: "When I realized it, my second aunt was here. I didn't even have time to put the copper plate in my hand."
I put it back, thinking I would look for an opportunity after eating, but my second aunt discovered it."
As soon as these words came out, Zhou's mother felt heartbroken: "Silly boy, since that's what you think, why didn't you say it just now?"
Zhou Guishu lowered his head and said angrily: "A mistake is a mistake. Even if I tell the truth, no one will believe it, and my second aunt will think that I am quibbling."
Zhou's mother touched his head: "The Lu family is not particular about things. Don't think about it. You are not to blame for what happened this time."
It’s just that the Lu family is too stingy.
The Zhou family came angrily, looking like they were going to call for punishment. But they went back in disgrace, and no one was in high spirits. Father Zhou originally wanted to scold his grandson, but after hearing his explanation, he swallowed his words.
Went back.
He sighed: "Go back to work."
Zhou Guishu lowered his eyes: "I blame my ignorance for irritating Second Aunt. If I had known better, I would have let Xiao Wu go. Second Aunt might like him if he is more well-behaved."
Zhou's mother thought thoughtfully: "Xiaoqing hasn't calmed down yet, I'll come and talk to you tomorrow. By the way, I'll take Xiaowu with me."
After all, I haven't given up yet.
When Yang heard this, his heart suddenly relaxed.
As long as her two sons, whether they are the eldest or the fifth, can be adopted, no matter who they are, she will be able to worry less. If the brothers help each other, they will no longer have to worry about their future livelihoods.
