Chapter 122, Big Mom: It's enough for someone to send us the last ride
Siheyuan, Su Cheng's house, living room.
Su Cheng and the old lady sat opposite each other.
Su Cheng glanced at the old lady with a straight face and said helplessly,
"Grandma, why are you driving me back in front of everyone?"
The old lady glared at Su Cheng, obviously still angry.
Before, in public, she picked up her crutches and drove Su Cheng home, probably because she wanted to tell the people in the courtyard that when Su Cheng stood up to speak for Xu Damao's family, he was only representing Su Cheng herself and her ancestors in the courtyard.
But it doesn't matter, it can be regarded as an indirect support for the uncle.
At this moment, the old lady had put the crutch aside and said dissatisfiedly,
"I also want to ask you what you want to do, little monkey! Silly Zhuzhu is grandma's eldest grandson, how can you do it?"
Su Cheng curled his lips and said,
"Silly Zhu, you brought it on yourself, you can't blame me!"
Seeing that Su Cheng had no intention of doing anything wrong, the old lady immediately picked up the crutch beside her, knocked on the floor and said seriously,
"Chengzi, if it weren't for your uncle and Silly Zhu taking care of your grandma from time to time all these years, I wouldn't be able to survive to this day. We have to be conscientious!"
When Su Cheng heard this, he was noncommittal. This was a typical example of the old lady not helping her relatives. Su Cheng might still feel a little guilty about the uncle, but Silly Zhu let it go. He had secretly paid off the past debts for the old lady.
The favor was returned.
Su Cheng knew that Sha Zhu was covetous of Qin Huairu, so he indirectly allowed Sha Zhu to marry Qin Huairu early, so that Qin Huairu would not hang on him all the time. More importantly, he also dispelled Qin Huairu's idea of making Sha Zhu the queen. Su Cheng himself
I don’t owe Shazhu anything for recognition.
Today, Silly Zhu was beaten up. It was purely because Silly Zhu deserved it. He was arrogant and unrestrained. He was obviously unreasonable, but relying on the support of the uncle and the old lady, he was unwilling to give anything to Xu Damao and Xu Damao just to save face.
Lou Xiao'e apologized, but she turned out to be a scoundrel.
Anyone with a little sense of justice, if they see this kind of situation, would stand up and say a few words of justice like Su Cheng, right?
As for teaching Sha Zhu a lesson, it was Sha Zhu who put his face in front of Su Cheng and asked Su Cheng to hit him, so I can't blame him.
So when Su Cheng heard the old lady's words, he immediately retorted,
"Grandma, if you want to say that, I don't agree with it. I will remember your kindness and I will pay it back if I have the chance in the future. But today, this person is obviously a fool and is unreasonable, and Lou Xiao'e is no less generous on weekdays.
Let me chat with you, I stood up and said a few fair words for Lou Xiao'e. Why did you say that you have no conscience? "
When the old lady heard this, she was equally noncommittal. Once the old lady has determined a truth, it is useless no matter how you explain it to her. The old lady immediately said with a straight face,
"Xiao'e is a good girl, but can she compare with Silly Zhu? Besides, what kind of virtue is Xu Damao? You have to speak for him. He deserves to be beaten by Silly Zhu. Why do you want to go against your uncle?
What? Just let Shazhu pay some money to Xiao'e, why do you have to get involved?"
There is a difference between closeness and distance. The old lady did not hide her selfishness at all. When Su Cheng heard this, he could only patiently explain,
"Grandma, I know you feel sorry for Silly Zhu. Even if you don't want to see Xu Damao, you still have to think about Lou Xiao'e. She is a woman who has been married to our yard for four or five years, but there has been no movement in her belly. Behind her back
How much gossip do you have to endure?"
When Su Cheng said this, he saw the old lady became silent and then said,
"Grandma, you also know that Si Zhu and Xu Damao don't deal with each other and often make excuses about this matter. But Lou Xiao'e has no grudge against Si Zhu, but she has to be humiliated. People's hearts are full of flesh, no matter whether Xu Damao or I
What is the relationship? Based on this, if I don't stand up and say a few fair words for them, it will be unconscionable. The uncle asked Silly Zhu to pay more money to settle the matter. Do you think Lou Xiao'e's family lacks that little money?
Lou Xiao'e has worked hard to hold this meeting in the courtyard today, more because she has been dissatisfied with Si Zhu for a long time. What she lacks is an apology and attitude from Si Zhu, can you understand?"
The old lady saw that what Su Cheng said was reasonable, but she still didn't want to admit that she was wrong, and she still harbored a grudge.
"Silly Zhuzi, even if what you do this time is not honest, you can't hit anyone!"
Isn’t that what Silly Zhu asked for?
Su Cheng glanced at the old lady speechlessly. He had said everything he needed to say. Su Cheng didn't bother to explain anymore. He knew that the old lady had accepted her death and it was useless to talk more. And he would not go so far as to ask an old lady.
If you lose your temper, you can only follow the old lady's wishes and find a way out for the other party.
"Grandma, I was impulsive."
When the old lady heard this, her expression gradually softened, and she suddenly said a little arrogantly,
"As long as you know you were wrong, I'll go over and apologize to you later, do you hear me?"
Su Cheng nodded when he heard this. Even if the old lady didn't tell him, Su Cheng still had to go to the old man's house, but it would definitely not be to apologize to the old man, but to explain to him, so as not to let the old man misunderstand Su Cheng.
He felt that Su Cheng was going against him and thus hurting the relationship between the two of them, so he said,
"Okay, this matter is all up to you, then I will go over now?"
The old lady nodded and said,
"Go quickly, it's getting late. If it's a little later, you might have to go to bed at home."
Seeing that the old lady had no objection, Su Cheng immediately got up and walked out the door, heading towards the uncle's house.
So Su Cheng soon saw a dim light shining through the withered screen window of the uncle's house. Knowing that the other party was probably not asleep at this time, he went up and knocked on the door.
"Master, I am Su Cheng, are you asleep?"
In the house, the elder was sitting next to the hall. Hearing Su Cheng's voice outside the door, he suddenly became a little unhappy after having already calmed down.
Su Cheng had been tactfully asked not to interfere in the affairs of the courtyard before, and Su Cheng had promised well, but he didn't expect that Su Cheng would jump out and openly compete with him in front of everyone tonight, almost making him unable to get off the stage.
Thinking of this, the old man immediately put on a straight face and looked towards the door.
At this moment, the aunt who was doing needlework at the square table in the living room had already stood up, opened the door curtain and opened the door for Su Cheng, with a look of surprise on her face and said,
"Chengzi, why are you here so late at night?"
Su Cheng followed the eldest mother into the house. He looked up and saw the stern face of the old man. He knew that the other party was putting on airs to show to him. Su Cheng was not angry about this. After all, during the meeting in the courtyard, he was
If you refuted the grandpa's reputation in public, anyone would probably feel unhappy.
When he heard what Auntie said, Su Cheng also smiled and said,
"Auntie, I have something to do with you."
After hearing this, the aunt led Su Cheng to sit at the square table in the living room. She raised her head and glanced at the old man sitting next to the hall and said,
"Lao Yi, why are you still sitting there? Come here quickly, Chengzi is looking for you."
After the aunt finished speaking, she went to the table nearby to pour water for Su Cheng.
But when the elder heard this, he was indifferent. He glanced at Su Cheng and said calmly from a distance of four or five meters,
"Chief Su, why did you come to see me in the middle of the night?"
Su Cheng saw that the first man was deliberately keeping a distance from him when talking to him, and the alienation in it was self-evident, so he asked straight to the point,
"Master, are you angry with me because of the meeting in the courtyard?"
The first man heard this, but he didn't want to admit it. Instead, he said in a roundabout way,
"What do I have to be angry about? It's normal for you to raise objections if you think I'm doing things unfairly. Everyone in this hospital has the right to do so. I won't give you special treatment just because you are the leader of the factory."
Su Cheng listened to the eldest uncle's overt and sarcastic words, and knew that the other party didn't want to see him anymore, and he didn't bother to put his hot face on other people's cold buttocks. He was about to get up and leave, but saw that the eldest mother had already brought the cup.
When the hot water came, the aunt saw Su Cheng standing up to leave and said quickly,
"Shengzi, come and drink some water! Your butt is not even warm yet, so why are you leaving and why can't you chat with your aunt?"
When Su Cheng heard this, he also smiled bitterly and said,
"Auntie, you've seen it too. It's not that I want to leave, but that the uncle doesn't want to see me. Why should I stay here?"
Aunt Ma also knew what happened in the courtyard before. She actually felt that Yi Zhonghai was too partial to Silly Zhu. After all, over the years, she had been criticized by people in the courtyard behind her back because she could not have children.
Why do you insist on making Si Zhu apologize in public? I feel the same way.
When he heard Su Cheng's words, he glared at the old man sitting next to the hall with dissatisfaction and said,
"Lao Yi, what are you doing sitting there with Maitreya Buddha? Who are you showing with a straight face? Why don't you sit over here!"
Then he showed a kind smile and said to Su Cheng,
"Chengzi, regarding what happened in the front yard, I think you did the right thing. Your uncle is really confused. Silly Zhu has no way of opening his mouth. It's time to fix it."
After the eldest mother finished speaking, the eldest father came to the square table reluctantly and sat opposite Su Cheng. He glanced at his wife and said dissatisfiedly,
"I said, old lady, what do you know, why are you acting opposite me?"
In the past, the eldest mother would have been obedient to the eldest father, but today she made a rare retort,
"Lao Yi, I really feel that you are not kind enough today. We treat ourselves the same as others. We have been looked down upon by others for so many years because of my infertility, right? Shouldn't we let Silly Zhu apologize to Lou Xiao'e properly?
"
This is the truth. Why doesn’t the uncle understand it? It’s just that people have selfish motives. Because he had a lot of money before, he was already guilty of Sha Zhu and has been trying to mend the relationship with Sha Zhu. So today
It was only later that I would be so partial to him.
Seeing that the aunt didn't understand his good intentions, the elder also glared at the aunt and said dissatisfiedly,
"Old lady, could you say a few words less?"
When the aunt heard this, she shut her mouth as expected.
And Su Cheng saw the old man who was like a gunpowder keg and said,
"Master, can we have a nice chat? If not, I'll leave first. We can talk again when your mood stabilizes someday?"
After hearing this, the uncle suppressed his dissatisfaction with Su Cheng, tried to calm himself down, then looked at Su Cheng and said,
"Seiko, you should know why I'm angry, right?"
When Su Cheng saw that the first man was no longer showing off in front of him, he knew that this was the time to have a good discussion with him, so he nodded and said,
"Master, are you angry that I humiliated you in front of everyone in the courtyard?"
The uncle took a deep look at Su Cheng and said,
"Didn't I tell you that you would be less involved in the affairs of the courtyard?"
Facing the first man's question, Su Cheng explained apologetically,
"Master, tonight is a special situation. You have also seen Si Zhu's rogue behavior. I just can't stand it and that's why I spoke. I have absolutely no intention of offending your face."
After hearing Su Cheng's words, the first man's expression softened, but he still warned,
"Shengzi, let's forget what happened this time. I don't hope there will be a next time."
Su Cheng thought for a while, but did not respond immediately. Instead, he said with a hint,
"Master, don't always think about trying to make peace with things in this courtyard. If you can be a little more fair, I'm too lazy to take care of it."
Seeing that Su Cheng was questioning his behavior, the uncle's anger that had been suppressed surged up again, and he said angrily,
"Are you teaching me how to do things? Of course I have my own reasons for doing this."
Su Cheng:???
Sir, are you possessed by Uncle Da?
Su Cheng complained in his mind, and when he saw that the first man's attitude was not very good, he said very straightforwardly,
"Master, can you tell me what the reason is? Isn't it because you are trying to turn a big thing into a trivial one?"
Seeing that Su Cheng had revealed this, the first man immediately darkened his face and asked,
"Is it possible that trivial things in the courtyard are going to cause a fuss?"
When the aunt saw the two of them, they didn't say a few words, but she was filled with the smell of gunpowder and hurriedly came out to smooth things over.
"Lao Yi, what are you doing? Chengzi definitely doesn't mean that, don't get me wrong!"
Then he looked at Su Cheng and said,
"Shengzi, you do the same. Why are you talking to your uncle so hastily?"
Seeing the dilemma, Su Cheng also restrained his emotions and said with a smile,
"Auntie, I'm a little over the top, I'm sorry."
After Su Cheng finished speaking, he glanced at the old man with a straight face, thought for a while and said,
"Master, don't worry. I will never interfere in the affairs of this courtyard. You are an elder. It's too late for me to respect you, let alone deliberately disobey you!"
Seeing what Su Cheng said, the uncle's expression softened and he said,
"Chengzi, don't blame me for being careless. You are the leader of the factory. In this courtyard, sometimes what you say is more effective than mine. If you always interfere in the affairs of the courtyard like this, then you and I will be together."
Uncle, where is the third uncle?"
Su Cheng nodded and said,
"Master, I know what's appropriate."
Then the conversation changed,
"Master, Mom, actually, apart from this matter, I still want to ask you, since you have no heirs, what are you going to do when you get old?"
When the first uncle and the first aunt heard this, they looked at each other. They didn't know why Su Cheng suddenly asked this question. Then the first aunt turned to look at Su Cheng and said with a bitter look on her face,
"Chengzi, I haven't been able to give you a son and a half. I just hope that when we get old, someone can take us on our last journey. I don't dare to expect anything else."
