Chapter 317 She asked Gu Huai to wash clothes
Lu Tianyou walked out of the Lu family's old house in a daze. As soon as he stepped out of the door, it was closed. At the same time, a bag of candy and a bag of biscuits were thrown out.
Lu Tianyou was stunned for three seconds, then bent down and picked up the thing.
He turned around and glared angrily at the plaque with the words "Lu's House" written on it. His grandfather was so cruel to him, but one day he would become successful and make his grandfather regret treating him like this.
Lu Tianyou left angrily and returned home when lunch had just been placed on the table.
Seeing him push the door open, Mother Lu quickly asked, "How is it? Did your grandfather agree?"
Lu Tianyou didn't say anything and put the biscuits and candies on the table.
When Mr. and Mrs. Lu saw what was on the table, they knew that the old man did not agree.
Lu Sisi raised her eyebrows. "It seems that Grandpa doesn't agree. Let me make it clear first. I will never agree to give up my room."
She defended her room to the death.
Lu Tianyou sat down dejectedly.
Mother Lu glared at her daughter Lu Sisi angrily and said, "The old man is heartless, and you, a silly girl, are also ignorant. Your brother is not going to take over your room, he is just staying for a few days. They will not live at home when school starts."
Mother Lu hated the old man's ruthlessness so much that she wrote a letter of denunciation and exposed his crimes at the criticism meeting. Did she treat her own son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren as enemies?
"I don't care. Even if you stay for a few days, it's not okay." Lu Sisi acted like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.
Lu Tianyou looked at his sister disappointedly, "I really love you in vain."
"Why do you love me?" Lu Sisi rolled her eyes. "You always borrow my New Year's money to date a woman, and you haven't even returned it to me yet."
He hasn't bought anything for himself since he returned to the city. How can this hurt?
Other people’s brothers buy delicious food, clothes and other things for their sisters.
"Bang." Father Lu slammed the table. "I'm being yelled at. What a jerk! You really are giving me so much trouble, young and old."
In Mr. Lu's heart, he also hated his father's ruthlessness. It was all due to the situation at the time. Why couldn't his father understand?
Would he be happy if his entire family were sent to a farm for reeducation through labor?
After returning to the city, he treated their family as enemies. He did not even recognize his own sons and grandsons. He lived alone in a huge house, leaving the four of them to squeeze into this crowded unit apartment and quarrel over a room.
"Lu Sisi, give up your room for a few days and let your brother and sister-in-law use it as their wedding room. This is decided. Anyone who makes trouble again will get out." Father Lu, the head of the family, made the final decision.
When Lu Sisi heard this, she ran back to the room with red eyes. In the end, she didn't get out, but she felt resentful towards her brother and Lin Siyu, her sister-in-law who had not yet entered the house.
"Ah, hush, hush..." Lin Siyu, who was far away at the Lin family, sneezed twice in a row.
She rubbed her itchy nose, thinking that she might have caught a cold because of the strong wind in the living room.
However, this kind of life will not last long. Once I marry Tianyou, I will no longer have to live in the living room.
Lin Zhongbao came out of the bedroom wrapped in cotton clothes. Lin Siyu glanced at him with annoyance, "How dare you get up?"
"What's it to you?" Lin Zhongbao said unhappily. He was in a bad mood.
Lin Siyu rolled her eyes. "Who do you think wants to control you? What kind of private work did you take? It's Chinese New Year, and you have to work until one or two in the morning?"
These past two nights, Lin Zhongbao didn't come back until one or two o'clock. She slept in the living room and was woken up by him every night.
"You wouldn't understand even if I told you." Lin Zhongbao said casually and went into the kitchen.
"Mom, what are we having for lunch?"
"For lunch, we'll have cabbage and tofu."
"Why is there cabbage and tofu again? No meat?"
"We eat meat at night. We have chicken and fish."
"Okay."
After lunch, the Gu family, young and old, started to take a bath one by one.
This is a custom passed down from generation to generation. On New Year's Eve, people should wash their hair, take a bath, change into clean clothes, and wash all the dirty clothes.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, you are not allowed to wash your hair, take a bath, do laundry, or sweep the house.
Even if you have to sweep, you have to sweep the garbage into the house.
The Gu family’s toilet was a dirt one, and it was not convenient to take a shower in it. It was not only smelly but also cold.
So I filled a large basin with hot water and washed in the room with the door closed.
Yu Hui and Gu Huai bathed the children first before taking a bath themselves.
Yu Hui washed the children first, and then Gu Huai washed them last.
While Gu Huai was washing, Yu Hui was washing her and her children's dirty clothes on the washing table in the yard.
The Gu family has several large wooden tubs for bathing, and several people can bathe in the room at the same time.
After taking a shower, Tian Ying came out of the room with her two sons and her own dirty clothes. Seeing Yu Hui washing clothes at the washing table with the water still steaming, she said, "Sister-in-law, you use hot water to wash clothes. We always use cold water. Using hot water to wash clothes wastes too much firewood."
"Really?" Yu Hui blinked. "Then you can just wash with cold water later. I'm used to washing with hot water. It's warmer."
This third sister-in-law has bullied her several times with those words, and it's time for her to fight back, otherwise she will really treat her as a soft persimmon.
Tian Ying: “…”
The corner of the eye is twitching.
After Yu Hui finished washing the child's and her own clothes for the first time, Gu Huai also came out. He temporarily wore his military coat.
He decided to wear the coat Yu Hui bought for him tomorrow morning.
"I'll take care of the rest. You go in and warm yourself by the fire." Gu Huai walked behind Yu Hui with the dirty clothes and said.
Yu Hui glanced at him, shook the water off her hands, and said, "Okay."
After saying that, he walked towards the main room without looking back. Zheng Rong and Tian Ying were sitting in the main room warming themselves by the fire. They would wait for the fourth room to finish washing the clothes before going to wash clothes.
Zhao Changying was also warming herself by the fire in the main room. She hadn't taken a shower yet, but the old lady was taking one, and she wanted to do it herself, and wouldn't let her help.
Seeing Yu Hui coming in, Zheng Rong asked with a smile, "Xiao Hui, did you finish washing your clothes so quickly?"
"No, Brother Gu is washing the rest." Yu Hui had just sat down next to the drying basket when Beibei, who was leaning on her mother-in-law, ran over and reached out for a hug.
"What? You asked Gu Huai to wash clothes?" Tian Ying raised her voice.
Yu Hui put Beibei on her lap and glanced at Tian Ying. Was there any need to be so surprised?
"Why are you shouting so loudly? Aren't you afraid of scaring the children?" Zhao Changying glared at Tian Ying and said.
"Mom, she asked Gu Huai to do the laundry!" Tian Ying pointed at Yu Hui and reiterated, emphasizing her tone.
Zhao Changying: "Why, Gu Huai is a golden treasure and can't wash clothes?"
Tian Ying: "...Washing clothes is a woman's job. In our family, has anyone ever let a man wash clothes?"
She felt that her mother-in-law was too lenient towards her daughter-in-law Yu Hui. Yu Hui even asked Gu Huai to wash clothes, but she didn't say anything to her.
Zhao Changying frowned speechlessly and said, "Who in our family said that men can't do laundry? Gu Huai just washed some clothes, is there any need to make such a fuss?"
"Gu Huai not only washes clothes at home, but also washes dishes."
When she was around, Gu Huai had rushed to do all these things, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
"Then..." Tian Ying glanced at Yu Hui.
Zhao Changying predicted what she was about to say and interrupted her, saying directly: "That's because Gu Huai loves his wife, he is happy."
Tian Ying: “…”
