"mom, Mom, Mom."
Yan Dabao hurriedly pulled back his mother who turned away and left, and seeing some neighbors sticking their heads out to watch the excitement, he finally asked the old lady to let them in.
"The sun came out from the west, didn't it take everyone away, there was no sound for two months, I thought you didn't remember that you still have a living mother."
For these two sons, Calendula can be said to be extremely disappointed.
Was she not good enough for them? She still abused them if she lacked food and drink for them. Although the family was separated, she chose to live with her youngest son, but the kinship relationship is continuous.
A few days ago, they came to take the child away without making a sound, she was angry, but she also considered that what the youngest son said made sense, the child could not live with his parents all the time, thinking that the grandchildren had left, and would bring them here every now and then for her to see Just lo and behold, gradually, her anger subsided.
It's good now, it's been almost two months since she left, and the two families are as if they are dead, or when her mother is dead, if she doesn't come to take a look, she won't even pay alimony.
These days, she has often heard those gossips from women who look down on others, saying that their sons are not filial, and most of them are bad mothers. They really say that she is sorry for these two white-eyed wolves.
"Mom, you said that."
Yan Dabao's smile was a little stiff, originally he thought that taking the child home was just a matter of adding an extra bed, but now after taking the child home, he realized that this matter is not that simple.
Among the four sons, the eldest, Da Dan, has already started school, but the seven-year-old Er Dan and the five-year-old San Dan and Si Dan are far from school age, especially the two young ones, who cannot stop crying for even a moment. When they got up, the ceiling could make the two brothers cry and collapse.
There is also food for the four children. The couple are busy quitting their jobs to take over and start a business, but the four children also have to eat and drink. Money is one thing, and time is also another thing. They never thought of raising four sons It was such an annoying thing.
This is the case for Yan Dabao, and the same is true for Yan Erbao.
In the past, the old lady would not let her three granddaughters go hungry. They would eat whatever the grandsons ate. The delicious white noodle buns and big white rice were stewed fish at home. Yan Chu ate fish belly. They always had fish heads and tails to eat. After killing the chicken, Yan Chu ate chicken legs, and they also ate chicken wings and chicken breasts. It can be said that as long as they don't compare with Yan Chu, their uncle, they eat no worse than other children.
In addition to the dry goods such as seafood and bacon brought by my uncle from across the mountain, as well as various fine grains and oils, every child is white and fat when they go out, and their spirits are different.
But it will be fine after going back with parents. Liu Hui herself feels that these three daughters are losers and will marry sooner or later, so how can they be willing to buy those things for them to eat.
In their previous life, they planned to have children, and both of them were regular workers in the factory. If they had another job, they would lose their jobs. Liu Hui just didn't like her daughters, so she treated them decently.
Now that the couple and the elder brother's family have negotiated to go into business, they will no longer work. Liu Hui has to give birth to a son while she is young. As for the fine, she is about to get rich and still need that little money
She wanted to have a son even in her dreams. This time she had the opportunity, so she was indifferent to her three daughters. It was just because she hadn't given birth yet, so she didn't know if she would be able to give birth. Apart from saving some money on food, she didn't give birth. They scold them.
Yan Sanni is the youngest and the most delicate-tempered. She is used to eating soft white flour buns, but now she is asked to eat steamed buns mixed with corn flour. How could she be used to it
Moreover, Liu Hui and Yan Erbao don't know what they are busy running around every day. The meal is to prepare them a basket of steamed buns and a stack of pickles. Besides, there is not even an egg, let alone meat. I have been crying at home for several days, making a noise every day for my grandma.
The adults on both sides are annoyed by their own children, but they don't think about how old they were when they took the children back in the last life. Can children in their teens and twenties be ignorant
It's just that the old lady always only asks them for a little living expenses, and doesn't complain to them about how tiring it is to take care of the children. They really think that the children just follow the trend and don't have to worry about it at all.
Now Yan Dabao and Yan Erbao have discussed the matter of resignation. Once they leave the machinery factory, the family houses of the two families will have to be taken back. The housing reform has not yet started, and these houses are still the houses of the unit.
In their previous life, they raised money to buy this small house after the housing reform. The market price of a small property right house is not high, and with the problem of size and location, the increase is far less than that of a few houses like a courtyard house, but it is definitely not a small sum. .
The two families were reluctant to give up the house in the factory, but they were even more reluctant to give up the greater opportunities brought about by rebirth. They counted the money on hand, and the two families decided to partner up and open a Mala Tang shop first, thinking that eating will be the most profitable for future generations.
They are already optimistic about the house. Below is the store, and above is the kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. It is just because the rent budget is limited, the rented house is not too big. It can accommodate the two couples, but it is absolutely impossible to fill in seven more. child.
As soon as the two brothers discussed it, they sent a few more children.
"The children all miss grandma, and after we took the children back, we realized that it is not that simple to take care of the children. Our husband and wife go to work on weekdays, and the children can't watch at all. They can only be locked in the house. When it grows up, we are also worried about accidents for our children.”
Yan Dabao flatteringly told the old lady that he didn't dare to talk about resigning. He was afraid that the old lady would come and get involved when they heard they were going to do business. He didn't want that bastard Yan Chu to take advantage of it.
"Pooh."
The old lady spat at her son, "Didn't you feel that I had treated them badly when you picked them up, but now you think I've taken care of them well? If you want to send them back, there's no way."
"Grandma, Sannier wants to go home."
Sanni, the youngest, hugged the old lady's thigh. It turns out that not every child's mother is as good to the child as the milk. She no longer wants the uncle's chicken legs, just give her some shredded pork and some soup. up.
"Mom, why do we think that you are not well raised? It's really just because we think it's not good to live apart from our parents when the child is grown up. We haven't come to see you these days because there are too many things in the factory. We also want to save some money. Money to buy a spacious house, and when the time comes, I will pick you up and live with your children, and I will honor and honor you."
Yan Erbao was eloquent, but Marigold didn't believe his evil.
"Don't say it so nicely. I think Jinbao will be the only one who can honor me when I get older. If you don't get angry with me, I will be Amitabha."
Yan Dabao and the others lowered their heads as if to be taught, but they sneered in their hearts.
The old lady doesn't know yet, the filial son she talks about will drive her to death in the future.
"Little brother is naturally filial, Mom, the matter of these children..."
Now that they asked the old lady, they didn't confront her, and praised Yan Chu according to her words.
"If you want to send it over, you can. In the future, the living expenses of each child will increase, ten yuan a month, whether you like to send it or not."
Calendula watched the seven children lose weight in less than two months after returning home, especially the three granddaughters, whose chins are all pointed, which shows that the two daughters-in-law and children are not good at taking care of others.
It was not wrong for her to be soft-hearted, but after this incident, Marigold also figured it out. The son and daughter-in-law, who had been a good person for too long before, felt that she had become a mud bodhisattva and let them handle it.
This time I want to send the child back. The cost of living has to go up, and both parents have hands and feet to earn money. It makes no sense for her grandma to keep patching that hole.
The two elder brothers were cold-hearted towards the younger brother, Jin Bao. As a mother, she had to think more about her younger son, and she had to save more money for him.
"Mom, our days are also difficult."
Zhang Qiaoqiao thought that the old woman was really partial, and this was her grandson, whoever she raised would raise her living expenses. Isn't this scrapping their flesh and blood to raise that little bastard Yan Chu
"I don't know how much money you earn? I can't afford to support my four sons. Could it be that I moved all the money to my mother's house?"
The four children add up to only forty, and Zhang Qiaoqiao's salary alone is enough, crying poor in front of her, as if she had never been a family.
"I just say this. From this month onwards, you will send it for ten yuan per child. After the price rises, the living expenses will also increase accordingly. Or you can take it back. Anyway, what about my own mother?" Let you poke your spine in the back, and I don't care if you scold me a few more times."
The old lady said that she was going to drive people away.
"mom, Mom, Mom."
Yan Dabao and Yan Erbao looked at each other while supporting the old lady.
"Okay, ten yuan is ten yuan, can't we increase the cost of living?"
When the Malatang shop opened, what would the extra five yuan count as money? Now let the old lady help them raise the children for a few more years to let them breathe, and then think about taking them back when the children are older.
The two brothers compromised and kept all seven children after paying the money.
"Dabao and Erbao, why did you send the child here again?"
When they left the courtyard, the two brothers were stopped by the people in the courtyard and asked, and everyone listened.
"The child wanted milk, and the family was crying and fussing, so I had to send it back."
Of course, Yan Dabao and the others couldn't say that it was because they were impatient, they found a reason to prevaricate, and then hurried away.
"Isn't it just five yuan? When my little brother dies, this old house will be ours, so how much is five yuan?"
Yan Erbao was far away, and muttered, in the eyes of them who were reborn, Yan Chu was already a dead person, and this house naturally belonged to them.
"This time, we have to find a way to prevent him from losing the house."
Zhang Qiaoqiao rolled her eyes, the second child's family has no son, of course this old house belongs to the eldest grandson of the Yan family, so maybe it will be cheaper for outsiders in the future.
Now that they were fighting against each other, Zhang Qiaoqiao would not say these words, but just encouraged everyone to target Yan Chu and save the house first.
The four of them walked away, and the courtyard suddenly became lively.
"The old lady's eccentric appearance, grandchildren still miss her?"
Everyone can't understand this point. In the past, I heard the old lady sip a good gold treasure, but I have never seen her call that grandson like that. As for the children eating well, in the eyes of everyone, it is because of the two brothers Yan Dabao and Yan Erbao The living expenses are enough.
The old lady didn't know how much money her son gave her when she saw people, which caused misunderstandings among the neighbors all the time. Everyone thought that the old lady took his son's money to raise her son carefully, and her grandchildren sometimes watched I am drooling while watching what delicious food my uncle eats.
If the children really came back because they missed the old lady, it means that the old lady treats them better than their parents, but if this is the case, is the old lady still the old lady they have a biased view of
"Milk."
After Yan Dabao and Yan Erbao left, the seven children looked at the old lady anxiously, with awkward expressions.
Yan Sanni is relatively lively, who made her a child with a lot of forgetfulness.
She hugged the old lady's thigh, clutched her stomach and said she was hungry. When she came out of the house in the morning, the seven children hadn't had breakfast yet.
"Every little bastard came to collect debts with me. I really owed you all in my previous life."
The old lady was not forgiving, nagging and walked to the kitchen. Although she had a group of sisters in the park, she was lonely when she stayed at home. She was used to bringing a group of children, and suddenly there were so many less at home. I'm not used to the voice at all, it's fine now, I'll come back when I come back, anyway, this time she has to pay her living expenses.
"Grandma, can I eat lard bibimbap today?"
Put a lump of frozen lard on the steaming white rice. The heat melts the lard, then pour soy sauce on it and stir it. It's so delicious.
Sanni sucked her saliva and asked eagerly, not listening to the old lady's cursing at all.
"You're the one with a naughty mouth, big egg, there's no soy sauce at home, so use the money to make soy sauce."
The old lady forgot to add soy sauce after talking on the phone with her younger brother the day before yesterday, and now the soy sauce bottle is still empty, and eating lard bibimbap would be impossible without soy sauce.
"yeah."
The children all understood what grandma meant, cheered and put down their luggage and stepped forward to surround the old lady.
Sure enough, grandma is the best in the world. Of course, grandma would be even better if she could stop scolding them as bastards, debt collectors and white-eyed wolves.
*****
"Uncle."
When Yan Chu came back from school on Saturday night, what he saw was a group of children sitting at the table. The older children helped the old lady arrange the dishes and serve the dishes. When they saw him come back, they all shouted affectionately.
Now Mom and Dad have become very strange. In contrast, the uncle who has never talked to them very much seems cute and close.
"They're all back."
Yan Chu was not curious that the eldest brother and the second brother would send the child back. In fact, due to the personalities of the two brothers and sisters-in-law, he guessed that it would not be too long before they took the child back, and it would be a matter of time before they sent it back.
The mission of the original body did not ask him to take good care of Yan Dabao and Yan Erbao, so he did not intend to stop their possible behavior in the future.
Both of these couples are adults, and they can take responsibility for their actions, and of course he won't add fuel to the fire.
He will live his own life well, and let fate decide what will happen to them in the future.
