Idle Chats in the 60s

Jiang Mengxue dreamed that she would return to several decades ago. She decisively sold all her property and filled the warehouse space of the bracelet left by her grandmother.

When Gu Qingbe...

Chapter 93 Jiang Dongmei's In-Laws

So Jiang Mengxue has been using space spring water to regulate her body recently. It must be said that it has at least had a very obvious effect on her physical fitness. After a period of time, her eyes can see things much more clearly, and she feels like the world has become clearer.

Jiang Mengxue thought that if this thing had existed earlier, why would she have worn glasses in her previous life? Only those who have experienced it can understand the pain of lenses getting thicker and thicker.

After Zhao Yun left, the three sisters started chatting and talking about their childhood.

"At that time, my parents went to work in the fields, and my brothers either went to help in the fields or ran out to play with their friends. I was the only one left at home to take care of you two.

You two were still drinking milk at that time. When the time came, you both cried together. I went out to find your brother to carry you two to your mother in the field to feed you, but there was no one there. I had no choice but to put you two in a basket and drag it along. Along the way, the basket was hit by a stone and fell over, and you fell to the ground. I carried you back in, and you fell out three or four times.

Later, it was my third brother who remembered that you needed milk. He knew that I couldn't hold you two by myself, so he ran back. Then I held one in front and carried the other on my back, took them to mother to drink milk, and then brought them back for me to watch over. Then he ran out to play again.

I used to say that you two were lucky, otherwise you would have either fallen to the ground when I carried you, or you would have accidentally fallen into the ditch. If there hadn't been a lot of adults working nearby and heard me crying, you two would have drowned, hahaha." He laughed heartily after saying this.

Jiang Mengxue and Jiang Mengran also wanted to laugh after hearing this, but they still joined forces to press Jiang Dongmei on the kang and tickle her.

Suddenly, a bicycle bell rang outside, followed by a knock on the gate.

The three of them stopped fooling around, put on their clothes and got up to see what was going on.

"Who is it at this hour? Stop knocking, come on." Jiang Dachun and his brothers all got up to see what was going on.

Jiang Daqiu ran to open the door, and Jiang Mengxue was holding a flashlight for him at the door.

"Chen Hua? Why are you here now? It's so cold at night and you still brought Xiaowei with you. Come in, come in." As he said that, he reached out and held Xiaowei in his arms and carried him to Jiang Dongmei's bed.

"Sorry to trouble you, Xiaowei is clamoring to find his mother. I thought he would come tomorrow morning anyway, so I brought him here now." Seeing that he looked calm, everyone didn't ask any more questions.

After helping him lock his bicycle in the house, Chen Hua followed Jiang Daqiu into the house. The kang in Jiang's room was relatively large, with two walls covered by kang. Several brothers and sisters had lived in this room when they were young, so it could accommodate many people.

In this room, Jiang Dongmei put Xiaowei into the quilt to warm him up and asked what happened at home.

She didn't believe that Xiaowei was the one who made a fuss to come. Not to mention that Xiaowei was an obedient child and it was impossible for him to act up for no reason, Chen Hua was not the kind of person who would spoil his children without any bottom line. He brought Xiaowei here without saying a word if he wanted to come.

"Mom, my uncle came back and said someone at the factory wanted to transfer a house to him. He came home to ask for money and asked grandma for 500 yuan. Then my grandpa scolded him. My uncle and grandma cried and made a fuss at home. Then my uncle and aunt refused to give my uncle so much money when they heard he wanted it. My aunt almost got into a fight with grandma.

Then my father told my uncle that he wanted to divide the family property, and my aunt also said that if my grandparents gave my uncle money, they would divide the family property. My grandmother started throwing a tantrum in the house and couldn't be pulled up.

Then my grandfather said that the whole family would gather tomorrow to discuss the division of the family, and that everyone from my mother's side had to go, and that the family should be divided completely. Then my grandfather went back to the house and left everything alone.

When my grandmother heard about the division of the family property, she was very reluctant. She pulled my uncle and told my father that he could not ignore my younger uncle. Then my aunt took my older brother and sister and pulled my uncle and said that they were going back to her parents' home. When my father saw them leave, he grabbed my collar and ran out, strangling me to death.

But luckily my dad ran fast, otherwise my grandma would have held his thigh and wouldn't let me go. I was scared to death, mom, my grandma was so scary, everyone in our building heard it, and when we came out, there were so many people gathered outside.

Jiang Dongmei's face looked very unhappy. She had no nerve to ask for five hundred yuan.

Even though he had paid a penny to his family over the years, Jiang Dongmei still looked up to him, Chen Xueliang.

I won't say too much. Since Jiang Dongmei got married five or six years ago, she has always been asking her family for money. After she started dating someone, it was even more so. She would ask the old couple for money for everything, including taking her out to the movies and giving her small gifts. She even kept her own salary.

Now that they are married, the young couple not only goes to the father-in-law's house to eat and drink, but also comes home every month to ask for money. Only Chen's mother is unaware of this and thinks that her youngest son is being wronged at his father-in-law's house. She always gives him a few dollars and deducts some living expenses every month to give to her youngest son.

Now the Zhang family's daughters-in-law must be unhappy. Chen Xueliang and Zhang Meina live in her parents' home and don't cook or wash clothes. Zhang's mother often asks them to do this and that on the grounds that the daughters-in-law have no jobs. She is not a fool.

Even if they don't have a job, they still spend their husbands' money. Chen Xueliang and his wife keep their wages for themselves and don't even pay for their living expenses.

At home, she always snatches food from her nephews and nieces. At first, her brothers felt sorry for their sister and suppressed their wives to prevent them from saying anything. They also thought that they would only stay for a while, but who knew that the two of them would not leave after they stayed. Now, not only the brothers and sisters-in-law are unwilling to leave.

Zhao Yun was also worried that something might have happened at his daughter's in-laws' house, so he put on his clothes and came over. Jiang Mengran pulled back the quilt and said, "Mom, get into bed first."

Jiang Dongmei told Zhao Yun what happened at home.

Zhao Yun's expression was very stable, and he didn't look angry at all. Jiang Dongmei was puzzled, as she thought Jiang's mother would at least scold the Chen family.

Zhao Yun said in a deep voice: "When the children grow up, this kind of thing will happen sooner or later. No matter how close the brothers and sisters are since childhood, once they get married and have children, they all think about their own families and children.

Even though you brothers and sisters-in-law all get along well, that's because your father and I are relatively fair. At least on the surface, whatever comes to one family will get a share, including grandchildren. I also told them that no matter what, each child will get a share. Don't say that you are at a disadvantage because you have few children. If you think you are at a disadvantage, you can give birth to ten or eight children. As long as you are willing to have children, we, as grandparents, will never be short of children.

The same goes for money. Each family manages their own affairs, and the daily necessities of the household are shared by several families. There is no other way around it. The children of several families were young, and they were separated as soon as they got married. The children are too young, so who can help take care of them?

I helped raise the eldest brother's children, but your third brother's children are still young. Why do you just walk away and leave them alone?

I have often said before that when brothers and sisters get along with each other, if everyone thinks that they have suffered a loss, then everyone should help each other with the idea of ​​suffering a little loss.

In the past, the eldest brother had many young children, so the younger brothers would take a little risk to help him for a few years. Now the second and third brothers also have many young children and are in a difficult time. Your eldest brother and his wife also want to take a little risk to help the two younger brothers raise their children a little more. Once the children grow up, everyone will feel more relaxed.

Of course, this is because you sisters-in-law are all sensible and don’t always try to take advantage of others.”
