"Hey, Mom and Dad, you all have white flour dumplings now. Xiaoyu and Xiaomin didn't have any white flour dumplings during the Chinese New Year this year. Let them try some."
Gu's father and mother: ...
Zhou Suisui on the side:... How shameless he is, begging for food as soon as he enters the house.
Father Gu frowned and said, "Why did you come back this year? Besides, didn't you see that your mother was injured?"
Gu Lan's face turned ugly at that moment, and she said loudly in a sarcastic tone: "Dad, I finally came back with Jianguo and the children. What are you doing? Don't you want me to come back? Besides, it's broad daylight and I think my mother hasn't woken up yet. How would I know she was injured?"
She ignored Zhou Sui Sui the whole time, but Zhou Sui Sui didn't care. However, Gu Lan didn't intend to let her go just like that.
"Hey, third sister-in-law, why aren't you looking at me? You can't even say hello." Gu Lan's voice was sharp.
Zhou Suisui said bluntly, "I thought Big Sister only had eyes for Mom and Dad's dumplings and didn't see me. I can't affect Big Sister's performance."
Who doesn't know how to be sarcastic? Zhou Suisui can kill her with his sarcasm.
At this time, Gu Lan's two children, the older boy Zhao Yu was seven years old, and the younger boy Zhao Min was five years old. The two children directly reached out to grab the dumplings in front of Gu's mother.
As soon as he got it, he stuffed it into his mouth and ate it, saying, "Dad, grandma is lying. Grandma's family is not poor relatives at all. I have never eaten dumplings so delicious."
It was too late for Gu Lan to cover her son's mouth with her hand. When she looked up, she saw that Gu's father and mother had very gloomy faces. Gu Lan knew that she was in trouble.
Before I came back, I clearly told the good kids to act pitiful at grandma's house, but why are they talking nonsense now that they are here?
Zhao Jianguo didn't think much of it. He was not afraid of Gu's father and mother at all. Instead, Zhou Suisui's lustful look made her feel uncomfortable all over and she wanted to dig his eyes out.
A weakling like Zhao Jianguo, with blue eyes, looks like he has indulged in excessive sexual activities. It's really disgusting.
Gu Lan said, "Mom and Dad, Xiaoyu is talking nonsense, don't believe it."
Mother Gu sneered, "Don't do that. We are all poor relatives. Go find whoever has money. Our Gu Family Temple is too small to accommodate several of your giant Buddha statues."
Zhao Yu, a little kid, can blurt out such words. It shows how much the Zhao family says these words. They must look down on their family.
In that case, there is no need to keep in touch with her in the future. Mother Gu doesn't care, so there is no need to curry favor with her.
However, Gu Lan and the others did not return to her mother's home for no reason. If they said they just came back to see their parents, Zhou Suisui would not believe it at all.
It's unheard of that someone would show up empty-handed during Chinese New Year. This is the first time I've seen someone so shameless.
"Mom, why do you say that? I am your biological daughter."
"If you were not my biological child, I would have kicked you out long ago." Mother Gu snorted coldly.
Now, the old couple didn’t eat many of the dumplings that Zhou Suisui brought, and gave them all to the two children.
Not only did he finish the meal but he still felt it was not enough. Zhao Yu shouted to Gu's mother, "Poor grandma, I want to eat more. Is there anything else delicious?"
Mother Gu said angrily: "You uneducated thing, get out of here."
"Sure enough, the countryside is smelly and poor, that's why I don't want to come here. Mom, I want to go home. I don't want to stay here anymore." Zhao Yu just lay on the ground and rolled around.
Da Wa and the others were playing in the main room with Shi Tou, Xiao Ya, and Er Hua. They didn't see Zhao Yu acting like this, otherwise Zhou Suisui would be afraid that Da Wa and the others would learn bad things.
Today, Zhou Suisui finally opened his eyes and saw what a naughty child looks like.
Zhao Min was also standing aside, looking at people with her chin raised at a young age.
"What brings you back? If you have something to say, tell me." said Gu's father.
Upon hearing this, Gu Lan sat down on the edge of the kang and said to her father with a smile, "Dad, you see, it's been a long time since I've been home. It's not easy for Jianguo and I to live in the city. Food is rationed every month, and the two children are getting older and older. It's not enough to eat. Life in the city is not easy for me."
After saying that, he pretended to wipe his eyes.
In the past, she used this method to get food from Gu's parents. It was okay once or twice, but after a few times, Gu's parents knew what was going on and gradually became disappointed with their daughter.
Father Gu said calmly, "It's no use telling me this now. You were the one who insisted on marrying her. You have to endure it, whether it's good or bad. Besides, we have already separated from your eldest and second brothers, and we only have enough food for ourselves."
"What? Splitting up the family?" Gu Lan cried out.
If the family were to split up, how would she get food from her parents? She wouldn't do that.
"Mom and Dad, why didn't anyone tell me about such a big thing as dividing the family? What does it mean that a daughter who is married off is like spilled water, so I am no longer a member of the Gu family?" Gu Lan said angrily.
"You're right. A daughter who's married is like spilled water. Now that you're married, you should live a good life and stop coming back to your parents' home to beg for food."
Mother Gu looked at Zhao Jianguo again and said, "Son-in-law, is your family unable to make ends meet? Why are you, a grown man, following your wife back to your father-in-law's house to beg for food?"
These words really humiliated Gu Lan's family. Gu Lan, eager to protect her husband, immediately started arguing with Gu's mother.
"Are you still my mother? Jianguo is such a good man, how can you say that to him? Besides, isn't it an honor for you to have a son-in-law who works in the county town?"
Mother Gu's head, which was already aching from Gu Lan's anger, felt even more buzzing.
At this time, Brother Gu (elder brother Gu) heard the noise of quarreling and came over.
"Xiaolan, how can you talk like that? You came home to quarrel during the New Year?" Brother Gu scolded.
Gu Lan pointed at her mother and said, "This isn't my fault. It was Mom who was unreasonable first. I just came home for breakfast and Mom didn't want to give me any food. Didn't Mom and Dad support that little girl Gu He all the way through junior high school? They're just partial!"
Gu Lan still felt that she was quite aggrieved. Gu He spent so much more money than herself, but she didn't think about the fact that Gu He's grades were much better than hers. At the beginning, her own grades were terrible and she was unwilling to study.
Now she puts all the blame on Gu's father and mother. Perhaps selfish people are like this. They think the whole world owes them and never look for the reasons in themselves.
"Get out of here!" Gu's father roared.
"Let's just pretend we never gave birth to you. Get out of here!"
Zhao Jianguo was humiliated again and again, especially by the Gu family, whom he had always looked down upon, so he couldn't stand it anymore and turned around and left.
"Tsk, if you country folks didn't have food, why would I come here? Just leave, Gu Lan, leave quickly and stop annoying people here."
