Chapter 12 Why is it too urgent to fry each other?
The eldest brother Xu Dong is a role model who is completely uneducated and has no skills. He has been a typical idler since he was a child.
Nowadays, it is a mixed society where people can eat, drink, prostitute and gamble. From time to time, if they owe a lot of gambling debt, they will come to ask for money from their families. They are as thick-skinned as a city wall, and are a typical scoundrel.
The second sister Xu Jie is considered to be the best in this ridiculous family. She looked good when she was young. When she was working as a salesperson in the canteen of a government agency, she met Wang Zhun, oh, her current brother-in-law.
Entered the middle class.
However, what disgusted Chu Nan the most was not that he could not see his second sister well, but that Xu Jie had looked down on his mother and him since he was a child, thinking that he was a bastard and not worthy of living with him.
With the support of my brother-in-law, who is the deputy section chief of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau, this behavior has become even more serious.
As for the second brother-in-law, who was an official, he usually looked down on the poor family. He was always arrogant and self-centered.
After all, in this family, the person Chu Nan cares about the most and feels the most pitiable is his mother Zhou Hailan.
Besides her, there is the half-brother Xu Yuan in front of her.
Since the age gap between the two is the smallest, it is best to play with the younger two.
Maybe it's because the same mother's blood flows in the body, and the relationship is extremely deep.
"Brother, I...I don't know if I can go to college yet..." Seeing Chu Nan mentioning college, Xu Yuan couldn't help but look a little gloomy and said, "Dad, he said that my test scores were not very good, so there is no need to continue studying.
He wants me to replace him and work as a worker in the steel factory."
"What?"
When Chu Nan heard this, he immediately became angry and said anxiously, "How can this be done?
If that old guy doesn't want me to study, why doesn't he want you to study?
You are his biological child!"
"Brother, please keep your voice down... I, I also eavesdropped on what my father and second sister said yesterday."
Xu Yuan forced a smile and said, "Actually, it's nothing... My college entrance examination score is only three books at most. The tuition is too expensive and there is no future. I might as well be a worker."
"Ohara, please don't say this again. How much does it cost to be a worker a month?
Do you still want to live like this in the future?"
Chu Nan grabbed his hand and said, "Let's go home. We must ask this matter clearly!"
"Don't, brother... don't say it in front of dad. He will get angry in a moment, and neither you nor I will be able to reap the benefits..." Xu Yuan said anxiously, "Also, the eldest brother and the second sister are both at home. Didn't I wait for you yesterday?
Wait, the second brother-in-law is here again today, and he is waiting for you to come and have dinner with him.
I just saw my father and his second brother-in-law talking for a while, and their expressions were very ugly, so don’t bring trouble to yourself."
Chu Nan couldn't help but sneer when he heard this. Xu Yuan didn't know why his stepfather Xu Shaoyang was angry, but he knew it clearly.
The second brother-in-law must have received the news in the morning that he was going to be fired from the company, so he came home to investigate, right?
"It's okay, I will explain it properly. Anyway, you have to go to college no matter what."
Chu Nan pulled Xu Yuan and walked towards home.
Since everything has been put together today, it’s a good idea to solve it all at once! The entrance to the alley is not far from home. Xu Shaoyang has worked as a steel worker for more than ten years, and the factory only allocated him a two-bedroom apartment.
It's an old building, and you can imagine how crowded it is with a family of five living together.
Returning to the familiar old house, as soon as Chu Nan entered the door, he saw his stepfather and second brother-in-law Wang Zhun sitting at the main table in the crowded living room. His eldest brother Xu Dong and second sister Xu Jie were sitting on the sofa aside. Only his mother Zhou Hailan was sitting there.
A lonely man stood in the corner.
The years have left deep marks on her originally beautiful face. The once beautiful mother has now become a truly weather-beaten middle-aged woman.
As soon as he saw the wrinkles on his mother's face and her hands full of calluses, Chu Nan felt unhappy and cried out with emotion, "Mom, I'm back."
"Xiaonan... you're back, okay, I, I'll cook, it's rare for everyone to get together... Haha, what, you follow me to the kitchen to wash the vegetables."
Seeing Chu Nan come back so early, his mother Zhou Hailan seemed a little nervous and hurriedly said, pulling him into the small kitchen.
"Well Well!"
At this moment, stepfather Xu Shaoyang made a loud sound, which frightened Zhou Hailan to the point where he stood without daring to move, but still kept giving Chu Nan a familiar look, with a very clear meaning, telling him not to talk nonsense or talk back.
Chu Nan, who was well prepared, glanced at his stepfather who had no emotion whatsoever. For some reason, he just didn't want to call him father today.
Maybe, he has had enough of this family that is riddled with problems, enough of this grumpy and biased stepfather, enough of these family members who are completely unrelated! Maybe, it is time for him to muster up the courage to change all this control.
It's time to decide your own destiny! "Dad, look, this bastard is just a bastard. He doesn't even know how to call his elders when he comes home. He still does something wrong and is so confident. He has no rules and regulations. It's outrageous!"
The pampered second sister sat on the sofa with her legs crossed and glanced at Chu Nan contemptuously, then said a lesson, "Chun Nan, look at how old you are, and you still need your family to worry about you, are you embarrassed?"
Chu Nan smiled and said nothing. He was too lazy to talk to his second sister. This woman had disliked him since he was a child. He almost got calluses after hearing such harsh words?
Looking at this posture today, you can tell that you want to use the rhythm of interrogation on yourself. How can you not let them scold you?
After they finished their performance, it was my turn to get angry! The eldest brother Xu Dong took a puff of cigarette and didn't dare to make any noise. Mainly because he was much worse than Chu Nan. He was idle and never had a serious job, so naturally he didn't have the nerve to lecture others.
At this time, the second brother-in-law coughed twice and stared at him. He said with a distressed look, "Brother-in-law, your level is really good. I finally arranged for you to go because of my connections. I begged my grandpa to sue my grandma."
How long have you been working in an advertising agency, and now you are making a big mistake and are going to be fired?
You are so good, you... aren't you embarrassing me?
If I had known this, when my mother-in-law begged me, I shouldn't have been soft-hearted and helped you, because now I will become the laughing stock of others!"
Chu Nan glanced at his pretentious brother-in-law, and couldn't help but feel amused.
"Look, mother-in-law, look at his attitude. Is there any sign of repentance?
I have done my best to be benevolent and righteous, please don’t bother me with such nonsense in the future!"
When the second brother-in-law saw Chu Nan sneering and looking calm, he waved his hands angrily and said harsh words.
"Chun Nan! What are you doing?
Why don't you quickly apologize to your brother-in-law!"
Zhou Hailan became anxious when she heard this, and begged Wang Zhun, "Good son-in-law, please don't ignore this matter. Xiaonan is not sensible. You must help me and beg for mercy, even if I beg you."
"Mother-in-law, this matter is really difficult to handle. Look at his attitude. Even if I help, will it be useful?
Besides, this company is not a charity. He even dared to plagiarize other people’s plans and even dared to sue the leaders. Who would dare to hire such an employee?"
The second brother-in-law said this awkwardly and sighed, "How about this? I still have a job as a cleaner in my unit. I'll contact you and ask my brother-in-law to go over and do it first."
Cleaners?
Chu Nan almost laughed out loud.
In the past, when he was studying, he was still a dazed young man who didn't know anything. He thought that his brother-in-law, who was always arrogant and arrogant as the deputy section chief, was really powerful. Now he finally understands that the little deputy section chief, I'm afraid,
Only in this family do people dare to be arrogant and slap their noses in their faces.
is not that right?
If you, Wang Zhun, are really that powerful, with a company like Lanxiang, you dare to fire me at will?
Will they disregard your face?
He also said that I had embarrassed you, so pull him down! Thinking of this, Chu Nan finally couldn't help but said, "Second brother-in-law, you are so good to me. You even thought of sweeping the floor for me. I really want to thank you."
.
But I know that you, brother-in-law, have such a high official position and high authority, so I won’t bother you. Otherwise, if I fail to clean the floor one day, wouldn’t it make you even more embarrassed?"
