Chapter 14 Weng's Son-in-law

He is an honest and steady person, does not go out to cause trouble, and has a little cleverness to make money.

Judging from the relationship between the couple since childhood, he loves and protects his wife and knows how to love her. Such a man is so reliable.

When Su Weizhong looked at Xu Shiyan, he felt that the more he looked at him, the more he liked him. He looked good everywhere.

This time he became even happier and drank more and more wine. In the end, he simply held Xu Shiyan's hand and wouldn't let go.

"Shi Yan, you are such a good boy. My father has no regrets about marrying his daughter to you.

From now on, I don’t ask for anything else. As long as you treat Yingzi well, dad will be satisfied." Su Weizhong said, his eyes turning red.

"It's not easy for Yingzi. She lost her mother when she was more than two years old. I, a grown man, can't take care of her.

But she has been sensible since she was a child. As a little baby, she can dress herself, comb her hair and wash her face without me having to worry about her.

When I grow up, I am even more capable. I can do anything at home and outside, and I have to use it better than a boy." The more Su Weizhong said, the sadder he became.

Su Weizhong served as a soldier and participated in the battle on the other side of the Yalu River. After returning to his hometown after changing his career, he married Su Anying's mother, Sun.

After giving birth to Su Anying, Mrs. Sun contracted tuberculosis and died two years later, leaving her husband and daughter behind.

How could Su Weizhong, a grown man, live with a little girl? So with the help of others, he married Han Cai'e, who had fled with his daughter.

Mr. Han married and gave birth to four more daughters to Su Weizhong.

There were six girls in this family. No matter how talented Su Weizhong was, he had to work hard to earn money to support her and could not take care of the family at all.

Fortunately, Mr. Han has a good personality and treats Su Anying reasonably. He never beats, scolds or abuses her, and she eats and wears the same as the others.

Of course, a stepmother is a stepmother after all, and it is impossible to say that she is not partial.

Otherwise, why would Su Anying, the daughter of a family, not go to school for a day?

Su Anying has been very capable since she was a child. She has been coaxing her children behind her sister's back since she was five or six years old. When she gets a little older, she can do all the laundry and cooking.

After the age of 15 or 16, when the farm is busy, I work in the fields to earn work points, and when the farm is off, I go to the mountains to collect firewood, which I grab outside the home.

It can be said that Su Anying helped support half of the family.

Sometimes, Su Weizhong also feels ashamed of his daughter. No matter what, Su Anying should be allowed to study for a few years, even if she has graduated from elementary school.

Qin Meiling, the daughter brought by the Han family, graduated from elementary school and later became a substitute teacher. She married to Hunjiang last year, and her husband worked in a department store in Hunjiang.

After the two got married, Qin Meiling was transferred to Jianshe Primary School and promoted to a regular student.

Su Anying didn't study for a day, so she could only work in the fields to earn work points, and she could only find a partner in the agricultural team.

Comparing the two, does Su Weizhong feel better?

But what can he do? He has been married to the Han family for many years, and they have four daughters. Their relationship is deeper than that of the Sun family.

It's not easy for the Han family for this family. Can he still blame the Han family for this matter?

For the sake of this family, Su Weizhong can only continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Xu Shiyan, who has been a man for two generations, couldn't understand the meaning of his father-in-law's words? He couldn't help but sigh.

His little daughter-in-law is really pitiful.

"Father-in-law, don't worry, I will treat Yingzi well, my daughter-in-law. If others don't love her, I have to love her."

Xu Shiyan looked serious and assured his father-in-law in a solemn tone.

"Hey, hey, okay, okay, dad can see that you are a good person, I will leave Yingzi to you, I can rest assured."

Su Weizhong raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes, smiled, and nodded repeatedly.

"Look at you two sons-in-law, what are you talking about if you don't have a good drink? Come on, drink quickly."

Su Weicheng on the other end drank a lot, his tongue was a bit stiff, and he even dragged others to drink with him.

This meal lasted from 11:30 to just before 11:30, until several men were drunk and staggering.

This time, there was no need to work anymore and everyone fell asleep.

Fortunately, Su Weizhong had arranged all the work for the day in the morning, so it would be fine if he didn't go in the afternoon.

Among the few people, Xu Shiyan was the most restrained. The first time the new uncle came to visit, he got drunk. That was really embarrassing.

Xu Shiyan had a good drinking capacity, and he knew he had no energy to drink, so Su Weizhong and others got drunk. Xu Shiyan barely stayed awake and just rested on the kangqin at the end of the kang.

"How are you? If you feel uncomfortable, just lie down for a while, don't hold on."

After the table was removed, Su Anying sat next to her husband, raised her hand to touch Xu Shiyan's forehead with a worried look, and asked softly.

"It's okay. It's nothing. I'll just sit here for a while. The alcohol will wear off after a while. Don't worry." Xu Shiyan held his wife's hand and smiled at her.

Su Anying was worried, so she poured Xu Shiyan a glass of water and sat with him for a while.

When Xu Shiyan's drunkenness gradually subsided and his eyes gradually became clearer, Su Anying felt relieved.

The rule for newlyweds is to go home before the sun goes down.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, a local train from Tonghua to Baihe passed through Xianren Bridge. Xu Shiyan and Su Anying could just take this train back.

Just after three o'clock, Mr. Han called Su Weizhong, and after discussing it, the couple went to the warehouse to load a lot of rice and grain, etc., for the young couple to take back.

"You two come back. I don't have anything good for you at home. You two can carry this little food back and make up for it, and wait until the autumn harvest."

The Su family has a large population, but they are all girls and don't have much to eat, so there is some food left at home.

If the family had not been separated, Su Weizhong would not have mentioned this problem. The whole family would not be able to do anything with this little food.

Nowadays, the young couple live alone and don't have much to eat. A bag of grain can last for a few days, so Su Weizhong doesn't feel bad if he gives it to him.

"Oh, Dad, there's no need for this, let's keep it at home.

When we separated, we were given some food, which is enough for us to eat until autumn." How could Xu Shiyan ask for food from his father-in-law's family? He quickly refused.

"Look at your kid, why are you living with me? Yingzi has worked hard at home these years, and she earned this ration." Su Weizhong looked unhappy.

"When she goes out, she doesn't have anything to accompany her at home. It's just this little food. What are you going to do with me?"

Take it now or you won’t come back again.”

The father-in-law lowered his face and said harsh words. What else could Xu Shiyan say? He could only obey his words. "Hey, I'll take it then."

The days are long, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will just send you more things. Favors are exchanges, that's it, what comes and goes comes back.

The same goes for father-in-law and son-in-law, they need to move around frequently.

Over there, Mrs. Han also found Su Anying's old clothes and packed them into a bag for her to carry.

"When you live at home, you can save what you can. Wear old clothes when working in the fields. You don't feel bad if they get dirty. If they are really worn out, you can wear them and wear insoles."

"Come back often, no matter what time, this is your home."

After all, they are children who have been raised since childhood. Even if they are not biological children, they still have feelings for them. Before leaving, Mrs. Han warned her earnestly.

"My uncle is a good man. If you two get along well and have a baby as soon as possible, your father and I will feel relieved."
