"Old Third's family, we can't possibly look for that ungrateful bastard. 20 kilograms of rice flour can last for quite a while. This is all we can do to help your family!"
Mrs. Guan lost her patience and immediately frowned.
Zhang Cuihua looked at Guan Laosan, but Guan Laosan lowered his head and didn't look at her.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the four Zhang brothers retreated strategically. Before leaving, they took away the three remaining steamed buns.
I thought the incident with Zhang Cuihua's parents was over after their unpleasant parting, but unexpectedly, they came again ten days later. This time, not only did the four brothers come, but Zhang Cuihua's parents also came.
Zhang Cuihua's father arrived and sat in the main hall, acting like a relative, with a complete air of authority, without even explaining why he was there. Old Man Guan, accompanying him, engaged in a long conversation before explaining his purpose: "I miss my daughter, and I'm coming to stay for a few days."
The whole Guan family was shocked!
This is truly shameless. When did this happen? During a disaster? Why would an entire family go live with their daughter? They're supposed to stay for a while! I just brought you 20 pounds of glutinous rice flour, and it's all gone in less than ten days. Without finding work for your sons, you're blaming the whole family. Old Lady Guan is practically pissed off. This is the first time I've encountered someone more shameless than her.
Guan Laosan and his wife, locked in the third room, nearly beat Zhang Cuihua to death. Zhang Cuihua gritted her teeth and dared not utter a word as she was beaten. This time, Guan Laosan had learned his lesson and refrained from hitting her face. If his face, which had just healed, had been damaged again, her parents would have had more reason to stay.
After the brothers came a few days ago, Guan Lao had a bad impression of this family, and this time it was even worse. So he didn't want to endure it anymore and winked at the old woman, who understood immediately.
"My dear relatives, life is not easy these days. I don't mind you coming to visit my daughter and stay here, but what will you eat and drink?"
"Every family in your village earns money from handicrafts and gets food, but you come to my daughter's house and don't care about her parents' food?"
"I have such a big family, and we can't even afford to eat and drink. How can I take care of it?"
"That's your family's business, I have no right to interfere. I raised my daughter and asked her to be filial to me, and no one can say it's wrong. No one's parents can say they are not allowed to stay at their daughter's house, right? Besides, my daughter has been married to your family for so many years. Even if she has no merits, she has worked hard. She also gave birth to two grandsons for your Guan family. How can you not let her parents stay when they come? That doesn't make sense!"
"It's not that you are not allowed to stay, it's that there is no food or drink. Besides, look at this big family, even the side room is full. Where are you going to live with six people in your family?" Old Lady Guan started to take a conciliatory approach, trying to persuade them to leave through negotiation.
"If there's no room, let the younger generation vacate the house. Anyway, I'm your in-law, so you can make the arrangements. Who told you that your family didn't split up?"
After saying this, he looked at his four sons smugly. This was to serve as a model for them, so that they could handle similar situations in the future in this way.
The sons of the Guan family could not help but clench their fists, making a crackling sound. Although they usually had their own little thoughts, when faced with a problem, they were quite united and knew to stand together to face the outside world. Old man Guan looked at his sons and felt very relieved.
If outsiders saw this, they would be like, ugh, they are all thirty years old and still don’t understand, they haven’t been weaned yet!
Old Man Guan asked Lao Liu to go to the third room and call the third couple from the family and let them solve the problem themselves, because no one could be kept anyway.
Zhang Cuihua and Guan Laosan came to the main hall. Zhang Cuihua lowered her head, her face pale. Her parents glanced at her and then looked away. It was unclear whether they could not see that their daughter was in a bad mood or if they were pretending not to see it.
"Third brother, your father-in-law wants to stay in our house for a while. We have no food and cannot keep them." Old man Guan only said this and no more nonsense.
"My family doesn't want to keep you here anymore, go back quickly!" Guan Laosan was too lazy to talk nonsense and said to Zhang Cuihua's father.
"Why, you won't let me live here? I miss my daughter and I'm here to see her. Why can't you let me stay? If you don't let me stay, I'll take my daughter home."
Old man Zhang originally wanted to use this as a threat, and his son-in-law would definitely be scared, after all, she had given birth to two boys for his family.
"Take it away, take it away quickly, and don't come back."
Guan Laosan was also very fed up. In the past few years since her marriage, she was always thinking about her parents' home and taking everything from them. She was not living a wholehearted life with him at all.
