When Xie Yan went up the stairs, he looked at his empty hands and couldn't help but smile in his heart——
This is really thoughtful.
After traveling thousands of miles to send goose feathers, he still had one goose feather, and he was left with nothing...
While I was thinking about it, I suddenly saw my aunt stopping in her tracks.
"No, you come to the door without bringing anything. If word gets out that people are going to talk about it, you still have to be prepared."
Xie Yan was inexplicably relieved and said quickly, "Then I'll go down and get it."
"What to take?"
Auntie stopped him
"How could your donkey-hide gelatin and American ginseng be so wasted?"
He reached out and took out a hundred yuan from his bag and handed it to Zhou Haitao."
"Haitao, go to the door and weigh two pounds of apples and buy a carton of milk."
Everyone "..."
…
After waiting for a while, there was still no sound around. The aunt looked at Zhou Haitao who was stunned and couldn't help but frown.
"What are you doing standing there in a daze? Go quickly!"
Zhou Haitao looked at the 100 yuan in his hand and couldn't help but stammered, "This, this is gone?!"
No matter how uneducated he is, he still knows that as a son-in-law coming to the door, he can't just carry this with him now.
In previous years, when my mother came over to sit here, she would bring more than this.
The aunt glared at him, "You are stupid. Your brother Xie's family is poor. How can he have money to buy other gifts? This is the living expenses that he finally saved."
"Go and buy that brand of milk, don't buy the expensive one!"
Zhou Haitao "..."
You are so considerate.
…
There was a small supermarket at the entrance of the community. Zhou Haitao, who was young and had long legs, ran out like a gust of wind.
After a while, I walked back into the corridor carrying my things and panting.
Auntie looked at the brand of milk - well, this brand costs 36 per box, which is okay.
Look at the two kilograms of apples on the scale. They are big and round, very good and very happy.
She greeted her with a still somewhat incredible thank you, "Xiao Xie, take this thing with you and let's go to the door."
Xie Yan was carrying his things and couldn't help but look at Ding Wei, who was a little behind the stage.
Seeing the other person's expression of trying hard not to laugh, he twitched the corner of his mouth and suppressed the speechlessness in his heart.
At the same time, he was thinking about what Weiwei's parents had done, and how could he allow his eldest sister to treat him like this?
Thinking about it again, it must be too much. Didn’t Weiwei suffer a lot in the past?
Thinking of this, he looked at the things he was carrying and suddenly felt that the apples were expensive and so was the milk.
…
In fact, Ding Wei said that her youth in her previous life was so long ago that she can no longer remember it clearly.
Overall, she was neither hungry nor beaten, which is much better than the girls in some families.
However, they were neither hungry nor beaten only because the couple was concerned about face, and also because they did not play their role to the maximum.
What's more, the boy who will continue the family lineage of Lao Ding's family hasn't appeared yet.
But now, with his own indirect promotion, this younger brother has arrived 13 years earlier than in his previous life.
Therefore, what she encountered is what her previous life will face in the future.
She quickly went up to the seventh floor and stood in front of the door, sighing silently.
Through the security door, you can hear the cries of children coming from the house. I think this brother, without his own salary and savings to support the gold medal confinement nanny, is not very comfortable at home.
This is also very understandable.
After all, that couple is not really caring about their son. They just want to have a more comprehensive guarantee for their future and make themselves more glorious.
And this glory must also be labeled as "carrying on the family lineage".
A group of people blocked the door. They looked at each other and tacitly gave up their position to the aunt.
The aunt frowned, and did not knock on the door immediately. Instead, she listened to what was going on inside for a while, with a little unbearable look in her eyes.
The child was crying heartbreakingly... It was a sin to expect them to take care of the child!
Ding Wei was also stunned for a moment, "Didn't you say you hired a nanny?"
After all, although my aunt doesn't pay attention, my second uncle Ding Haihe still knows some information.
In addition, everyone in this small town is related to each other, so sometimes they are mentioned in passing.
When Ding Wei called, she heard from her aunt that they had hired someone to help.
Facing Ding Wei's doubts, the aunt sneered.
"The nanny doesn't care about everything."
"When you were born, for the first few months, your second aunt and I came over to help you during the day. Your parents knew you were a girl and didn't care about you at all."
Think about it, I was really obsessed with lard at that time.
So what if he is the younger brother who was raised by himself?
After doing this, you should have known his true face a long time ago.
Thinking of the past, my aunt looked a little melancholy.
"You were sensible when you were young and rarely cried at night. Your second aunt and I came to clean up and help you after get off work. We can't do anything else at ordinary times. We still rely on your parents to take care of you."
"One time, I remember during the physical examination in kindergarten, the teacher said that you were malnourished..."
"Haitao was still young at that time. I took him at home and wanted to find him a playmate, so I took you to live at home for a month. Do you remember?"
Ding Wei blinked.
Then... I must not remember it.
But this was the first time in her life that she heard about this, and she couldn't help but feel a little moved.
What do three to five year old children know!
It’s a lot of tossing and turning every day. My aunt can take her back because she is malnourished and feed her well for a month. The love in this...
Her dad is really——
Such a good family member doesn't care.
Nowadays, without the eldest aunt and the second aunt, no wonder the child is crying so miserably inside.
My aunt was in a low mood and was lost in her memories for a while. No one else urged her to knock on the door, but her uncle Zhou Lei spoke at this moment.
"The nanny they hired is not good either. I went to the hospital that day and met a colleague from my work, and his sister-in-law lives downstairs. They said that the nanny they hired for 1,000 yuan used to be a caregiver who specialized in caring for elderly patients.
He's very efficient at work, but he doesn't know how to take care of children."
The aunt sighed, said nothing, and knocked on the door directly.
After knocking, there was no movement at all.
Auntie raised her voice again.
"Hai Yang, it's me. I brought Weiwei and her boyfriend here."
This voice is very bright.
Ding Wei looked at her neighbor's house opposite. She didn't need a clairvoyant to know that Aunt Li opposite must have opened the door soon.
After all, Aunt Li has always been on the front line when it comes to gossip and gathering information.
as expected!
In less than a minute, a "click" sound came from the security door of Aunt Li's house opposite. In terms of impatientness, it was even more representative than Ding Haiyang's family.
When a group of people subconsciously turned their heads, Aunt Li's smiling face appeared in front of them.
I saw her eyes turning around in the crowd, skipping her aunt, and quickly locking her eyes on Ding Wei, and her enthusiastic voice immediately lit up.
"Oh, Weiwei is back."
"This kid... I haven't seen you for a long time? How about it? Isn't college hard? Why did you just come back today? Are you..."
This is all a vain question.
With Aunt Li's PHS, how could she not know that Ding Wei was having a conflict with her family?
Besides, everyone in the work unit heard rumors that Ding Haiyang would not pay his daughter’s tuition and living expenses——
Why does this child come back so late? Do you need to tell me?
If you don’t make money, you will have food and drink from the sky.
But that question was just an introduction, and no one needed to answer it at all. She took the opportunity to bring the topic to Xie Yan next to him.
"Hey, which kid from this family looks so handsome? Weiwei." Her eyes flashed with excitement, "This is you..."
Ding Wei was eager for someone to promote her, and now she replied generously, "Aunt Li, this is my boyfriend's thank you. He is usually busy at work, and it is hard to have a day off, so he chose to come to the house at this time.
, let my parents see it too."
"Ouch..."
Aunt Li exclaimed exaggeratedly and couldn't help but look Xie Yan up and down.
"Young man is really good-looking, and he is quite tall. Weiwei, you have such good eyesight, it would be a good match for you to find a boyfriend... Young man, where are you from?"
If you continue to inquire like this, with Aunt Li's skills, maybe tomorrow everyone in the community will be able to tell when the couple got married.
Ding Haiyang finally couldn't sit still in the room, and he couldn't care less about his sister's temper that he originally wanted to kill. He simply put it behind him and hurriedly took two steps forward to open the door.
But the first thing that rushed out the door was his dark face.
After all, according to the thinking of a man like Ding Haiyang, it is natural for a daughter to have never been in love before she can negotiate the price.
Then if you fall in love too much, it will definitely be worthless. How can he talk about showing love to others?
He was holding his breath in his heart, and his expression didn't stop him at all.
Aunt Li had piercing eyes and immediately stopped talking when she saw this. However, her eyes were fixed on Ding Haiyang, as if she could analyze 108 stories from his dark face.
However, even though Aunt Li's eyes were so bold and direct, Ding Wei still remembered that in her previous life, she rushed out of the house dragging her suitcase, and it was Aunt Li who asked the men in the family to help her carry the big suitcase downstairs.
It's on the seventh floor.
No one from the biological parents cared about this problem. As a neighbor, regardless of what Aunt Li thought, they could be regarded as helping her.
She laughed.
"Aunt Li, I wish you a happy New Year in advance! We will go in first."
"Okay, okay, okay."
Aunt Li seemed to have not seen Ding Haiyang's face, and raised her voice now: ""
"It's cold, come in quickly. Tell your parents to coax the child well at night and don't let him cry all the time... Our old house is not soundproof."
After saying that, his eyes wandered around the aunt's family again, and he quickly entered the house again.
The couple, Old Ding, and his sister had a falling out, and everyone in the community knew about it.
Nowadays, when someone’s boyfriend comes to visit, it’s his aunt who brings him here... Hey, with the story here, she can eat three more bowls of rice.
Aunt Li was extremely satisfied.
Not to mention how satisfied and unfulfilled Aunt Li was, Ding Haiyang looked at the crowd of people crowded at the door and couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"I thought you were so grand. When you go home, I wish all your relatives would send you home... You have the ability to ask someone to carry you in a sedan chair!"
Listen, listen, this is what my father said.
Auntie's suppressed anger suddenly boiled over.
Just hear her sneer
"I really want to find a sedan to come here. It's not a coincidence that it's the New Year. But there's no rush. Our little Xie is so good. Maybe there will be one on the wedding day!"
This was a mistake, but it struck a chord in Ding Haiyang's desire for a betrothal gift.
Bullshit marriage!
Whether you have discussed it in detail or not, just open your mouth and come up with it.
He raised his eyelids and looked at Xie Yan coldly. Looking at the other person's ordinary jeans, sneakers, and ordinary down jacket, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart——
Didn't he say he was from the imperial capital? He didn't look like he had much wealth.
I originally thought that if the other party could provide a betrothal gift, maybe he would agree. Thinking about it, it is not impossible. After all, the imperial capital is at the feet of the emperor, and there are many rich people.
But now look at the other person's clothes...
Ding Haiyang was murmuring in his heart.
Ding Wei blinked, she was still a considerate and good daughter."
"Dad, there's nothing I can do about it. After all, my aunt paid for both of our traveling expenses. I will definitely express my gratitude to my aunt when I go back."
Of course Auntie didn't pay for it, but that didn't stop her from saying it and irritating people.
Sure enough, Ding Haiyang's expression suddenly became depressed, and even dashed the hope of the last "rich man in the imperial capital".
The young man came to the house and even asked his sister to pay for the bus ticket. She was really poor.
The two of them brought Weiwei up to this age and trained her to go to such a good university. If they don't find a rich family, how can they be worthy of their decades of hard work!
This is simply unfilial!
However, Ding Haiyang was thinking about other things and blocked people at the door, but his aunt was not polite.
She squeezed in first and greeted her as if she were at home, "Come on, come on, Xiao Xie, come here quickly! You don't need to change your shoes, just come in."
Good guy, this way, the originally small living room is full again.
But, the smell in this room is really bad.
It's an indescribably complicated mix and match, and I don't know how Ding Haiyang could endure it.
The look in everyone's eyes when they looked at him was even more strange.
However, even though you are here, you can't just go home just because it tastes bad.
Everyone covered their noses and adapted for a while, and then they were slowly arranged to sit down by the aunt.
Ding Haiyang sat on the sofa and drank tea in silence, without even looking at anyone. He tried to use his indifference and uncooperation to scare everyone away.
But is Auntie afraid of this?
She also sat down, not even mentioning Bai Xiujuan who was still in the bedroom and the baby who was still crying, but directly said
"Hey, Xiao Xie, you're here, why are you buying anything? You're so polite."
He conveniently took the milk and apples from his hand and put them beside the wall.
The familiarity of his movements and the falseness of his expressions are simply extraordinary.
This magical operation not only stunned Ding Wei, but also Xie Yan was stunned for a while.
And Ding Haiyang was so angry that he was about to explode.
