Chapter 339: Mother who left home
Lin Anan knew nothing about these things. She went back after calling Chu Mingzhou.
I was feeling a little depressed, but as soon as I got home I saw Aunt Chu.
"Aunt!"
Lin Anan came to the Northwest near the end of the year. This year was the happiest year for her. During this period, she was well taken care of by Aunt Chu and liked this elder very much.
"Is An An back?"
Aunt Chu was happy when she saw Lin An'an. Her worries were relieved and she had a kind smile on her face. But she didn't stop taking mutton out of the bamboo basket.
Aunt Chu had just arrived. The autumn harvest in the countryside had just been completed. She came with a backpack full of food, one in front and one in the back.
Mother Lin was also quite polite. After all, she was one of the few elders in the Chu family and she was also a kind person, so she was naturally very warm to her.
"Aunt, why didn't you tell me you were coming? You brought so many things with you. Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. There's nothing hard about it. Transportation is well developed now. I can get there in two or three buses. It's very convenient!"
Aunt Chu took out a small jar from the bamboo basket, which contained pickled plums she had made herself. "These plums are sour and sweet, and many girls like them during pregnancy. I brought some for you. Try them. If you like them, I'll make more for you."
"Thank you, Auntie."
It's a sour thing. I don't think much about it when I don't talk about it, but once I talk about it, I really get excited.
Lin Anan didn't hesitate to take the jar, cracked a few nuts and put them in a small bowl to eat.
As soon as the plums entered her mouth, the sweet and sour taste instantly blossomed on her taste buds. Lin Anan felt refreshed and couldn't help but praise: "Aunt, these plums are pickled really well, with just the right amount of sweet and sour. They're so delicious."
Aunt Chu looked at her lovingly, "As long as you like it, you are pregnant now, and your tastes vary. If there is anything else you want to eat, just tell me."
Mother Lin also smiled and agreed: "An An, it is your blessing to have an aunt who loves you."
"Oh, what's so lucky about it? Mingzhou is so busy, so An'an is the one who has to work hard!" He turned back to look at Lin's mother, "Mother-in-law, you've worked hard too. You've taken care of An'an and this whole family, and you've worked so hard."
Mother Lin waved her hands quickly, "It's not hard, we are all family, it's what we should do. Besides, our children are sensible and don't need anyone to worry about them. They also help with a lot of things at home."
"It's good to be sensible, it's good to be sensible!"
After packing up, Aunt Chu went to the bathroom to wash her hands. She looked around the yard and felt very relieved.
This is what home looks like!
He pulled Lin Anan to sit in the yard and looked her up and down several times. "Your mother is really good at taking care of people. You have gained weight and are more beautiful than before."
Lin Anan smiled and nodded, "My appetite has been getting better recently, and I've gained 7 or 8 pounds! The baby is also very well behaved and never bothered me."
"Okay, I heard you're in the army now? Don't get too tired, just let Mingzhou do the worrying things."
"Not tired, the organization takes good care of me, my workload is light, and I try to rest every day, don't worry. By the way, aunt, where are Xiaozhi and Xiaocheng?"
When mentioning her two grandsons, Aunt Chu's expression changed noticeably.
It was as if the sky had turned from sunny to cloudy, his smile disappeared immediately, his brows furrowed, and even his face looked much older.
Lin Anan's heart tightened and she felt vaguely uneasy.
"Zhi Ge'er stayed at his teacher's house. The teacher is his aunt and she treats him very well! Besides, he had to study, so they didn't let him come with them. As for Cheng Ge'er...he was taken away by his mother."
Lin Anan:?
Lin Anan only knew that both of Aunt Chu's sons died, leaving behind a child each, who had been taken care of by Aunt Chu.
Why is there still a mother?
Never heard them mention it.
However, there are some questions that Lin Anan, as a junior, is not comfortable asking.
Mother Lin made a cup of the best Longjing tea and brought it over. She happened to hear the two talking, and had no idea what was going on. She said politely, "Why didn't your sister-in-law come with you? If she had come, I would have the chance to recognize her as a relative."
Aunt Chu was scolded!
He reached out to take the tea, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and didn't answer.
When Lin's mother saw that her expression was not right, she immediately noticed it and glanced at Lin Anan.
Lin Anan shook her head slightly at her.
Mother Lin stopped talking immediately and said with a smile, "By the way, we are out of vinegar at home. I have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative. An An, please stay with your aunt for a while."
"Okay."
After Lin's mother left, Lin Anan didn't ask anything. She just moved closer to Aunt Chu and patted her on the back.
Aunt Chu's life was not easy. She lost her father in her childhood, her husband in her middle age, and her son in her old age. Her whole family were revolutionaries, and all of them were martyrs.
She is usually friendly and smiling to everyone she meets, but in fact she is more miserable than anyone else.
Ever since her son left, she has treated her two grandsons like the apple of her eye, keeping them by her side all the time, and would never want to leave them.
And she didn't say a word about her daughter-in-law, so there must be something wrong.
After finishing a cup of tea, Aunt Chu sighed deeply, "Cheng'er's mother said she wanted to take him away and bring him up in a big city."
Lin Anan paused, "You mean... Auntie wants to take Xiao Cheng away from you?"
Aunt Chu nodded, thinking back to the past, "The year Tianli left, Yuzhen left, saying that she was sad staying in the northwest and wanted to go out and try her luck alone. Later I heard... she remarried and went to Jinshi, thousands of miles away, to a nice family, and she never came back.
Just three days ago, she came back. She drove a car and looked very different. She must be in good condition. She insisted on taking Cheng Ge'er with her, without any room for negotiation..."
Human hearts are biased, just like at this moment, when Lin Anan was listening to Aunt Chu's story, her heart was filled with pity and resentment.
She really couldn't imagine how a mother could abandon her child so easily for so many years and now come back to take the child away by force.
She didn't need to understand how difficult it was for this woman. This approach was wrong.
"Grandma, you just let her take Xiao Cheng away? You raised this child by yourself, he is the closest to you!"
Aunt Chu sighed again, her eyes full of fatigue and helplessness, "What can I do? She is Cheng'er's biological mother! Moreover, she brought a lawyer and laid out all the rules and regulations in front of me, saying that if I stop her again, it would be against the law."
Using the law to suppress an old man who doesn't understand the law!
Lin Anan pursed her lips and patted Aunt Chu on the back, "What did they say? Aunt, tell me in detail."
Aunt Chu came here to look for Chu Mingzhou. It had been so long, and she thought he had returned, but she didn't expect that he was still in Henan Province.
Lin Anan is pregnant now, so it is really not appropriate to let her worry about her.
"No, just take care of yourself. I will talk to Yuzhen about this matter."
"She's still here?"
"Yes, I'm still in Beitian County. I want to go through some formalities. It just so happens that it's the weekend."
Lin Anan held Aunt Chu's hand and said earnestly, "Aunt, it's okay, you can tell me about it. I also like to read some legal books on weekdays, so I know a little bit about the law.
Let's put it this way. If we infer according to current legal concepts and principles, the mother is indeed the first person to have custody of the child. This is because parents are the legal guardians of their minor children, and the parent-child relationship does not change even if the father dies or the mother moves away.
But even the law is humane in terms of child support, and will take into account a variety of factors, such as your ability to support the child, the emotional foundation between you and the child, etc., and will make a decision that is most conducive to the child's growth. "
