After the pleasantries, Hu Xiaoyi went to the kitchen and asked Li Aihua to boil some water.
The pot was originally used to boil water for the family to wash. When Li Aihua heard this, she scooped a few more scoops of water into the pot.
Hu Xiaoyi sat in front of the stove and added a few pieces of firewood into the stove. He wondered whether he should immediately ask Li Aihua why she didn't tell him that his third brother and his family were coming to live with him.
His third brother's family was still around, and if he asked now he was afraid they would hear it. Then he would completely lose face and his nephews and nieces would laugh at him.
When Hu Lin came back from rinsing his mouth, he saw Hu Xiaoyi sitting in the corner and put the bowl on the stove.
After packing their clothes, the third family came out. Hu Defu stood at the kitchen door and looked inside.
He had a faint smile on his face, and when he saw Hu Xiaoyi making a fire, his smile widened a little.
"Brother, we are going to go for a walk. Do you want to come with us?"
It seems that he can only see Hu Xiaoyi in his eyes.
"No, I have something to do at home, you guys go." Hu Xiaoyi quickly declined when he heard it.
His third brother and his friends went out for a walk, so he could take a good opportunity to ask Li Aihua.
I was really sleepy, so someone handed me a pillow.
"Okay, you go ahead. Let's go!" Hu Defu took a few people out.
Hu Lin frowned, somewhat annoyed by the fact that Hu Defu always smiled at everyone.
So fake.
Hu Guangjie from the second house is just a copycat of Hu Defu!
It’s a pity that it only has form. The one in front of me is the unity of form and spirit.
Hu Lin was about to go back to the house to stretch his muscles when he heard Hu Xiaoyi speak.
"My third brother is coming to live at home, why didn't you tell me?"
When Hu Lin heard Hu Xiaoyi questioning Li Aihua, he took back the step he had taken.
She didn't speak at first, wanting to see how Li Aihua would deal with it.
Li Aihua was fermenting flour. When she heard Hu Xiaoyi's words, she was stunned for a moment and didn't understand why Hu Xiaoyi asked her.
However, when she saw the reproach in Hu Xiaoyi's eyes, she felt inexplicably aggrieved.
Li Aihua glanced at Hu Lin.
After waiting for a few seconds and seeing that her daughter didn't say anything, she spoke softly, "This was decided by mother. She came over and told me yesterday."
At the same time, he was still trying to make up for Hu Lin.
It must be Hu Xiaoyi who was asking her. It's not that his daughter didn't dare to speak up, but it doesn't mean he doesn't want to protect her.
She was fragile and sensitive at this moment, and could only comfort herself in this way, fearing that this was the fact that her daughter had abandoned her.
Hu Xiaoyi frowned.
He didn't expect that Cao Zhaodi was involved in this matter.
Why didn't his mother tell him?
Hu Lin looked at Hu Xiaoyi's expression and added, "Didn't grandma tell you?"
Hu Xiaoyi looked at Hu Lin, pursed his lips, and wanted to explain something, but in the end, he couldn't say anything.
Li Aihua looked at Hu Xiaoyi timidly.
The shadow of her previous marriage followed her everywhere, so much so that she was only afraid of the word "husband".
Even though Hu Xiaoyi had never done anything to her, she couldn't help but feel scared every time he blamed her or questioned her.
If she was afraid that her answer was wrong or not good enough, Hu Xiaoyi would hit her.
Hu Xiaoyi is her husband. If he takes action, no one will come to save her or stop him.
She could only endure it, endlessly.
Seeing Hu Xiaoyi's irrefutable expression, Hu Lin said again: "I thought grandma had told you a long time ago. Doesn't she only tell you about everything?
You never discuss things with us, so we don't think it's necessary to talk to you about this matter.
Anyway, you won't object to what Grandma decides, right?"
When Li Aihua heard what Hu Lin said, her pupils dilated for a moment.
After Cao Zhaodi told this story, her daughter was unhappy and she never mentioned it again. This was the first time she knew what her daughter said.
Can you still say that?
Hu Lin didn't know that she had inadvertently taught Li Aihua another lesson. She only saw the look in Hu Xiaoyi's eyes that was deeply hurt by her words.
After frustrating Hu Xiaoyi, Hu Lin felt a little better and returned to his room leisurely.
After the water was boiled, Hu Lin washed up early and went to bed to stretch his ligaments.
After a while after it got dark, the people from the third room came back and Li Aihua helped them clean up.
A few pampered city people, especially the two twin brothers and Wang Shuhua, couldn't help complaining and belittling when they saw the dilapidated toilet.
Hu Fengfeng didn't say anything, but she kept frowning and asked Li Aihua, "Aunt, do you have any other oil lamps?"
There was only one oil lamp in the room, which made it extremely inconvenient for them to take a bath as they could not see clearly.
And when I used it in the toilet, the one outside was black.
It was completely dark again, and now they could only remain blind.
"there is none left."
Li Aihua has become accustomed to such days, and can vaguely see Hu Fengfeng pursing her lips after hearing her words.
Her niece seemed unhappy.
Li Aihua vaguely came to this conclusion through observation.
In the past, she had little perception of the outside world, let alone such a shallow emotional perception.
It was only after her daughter told her that she started to have this idea.
After they finished washing up, they asked for the oil lamps too, saying that they had never lived in the dark before and were afraid of falling when they got up at night.
The other person's words were well-reasoned and he called her by respectful titles, so she couldn't say no.
Hu Lin was listening in the room but didn't pay any attention.
These things are all experiences for Li Aihua.
Living in this world, you have to learn the ways of the world.
The next day, when the third roommate came back at night, he was holding the oil lamp he brought from the Hu family.
When Hu Lin saw this, he whispered to Li Aihua, "Don't let them see our soybean oil. If they ask, just say we've run out."
Li Aihua nodded, not understanding why.
Hu Lin saw this and explained, "His family didn't do us any good, so why should we let them take advantage of us? We bought everything with money.
Every year, our family gets a share of what they bring back. What use is there for a relative like this who doesn't care about us?"
Li Aihua nodded, not quite understanding.
There have been many children in my family since I was young, and boys have been given priority over everything.
Even if the toy was originally hers, she had to give it to the boy unconditionally if he asked for it.
If she refuses to give it, her parents will help her to snatch it away, telling her that her brothers and sisters are her supporters and the source of her confidence in her husband's family.
They have to help and support her, not be selfish, they have to share, otherwise when she gets married, they won't help her.
Later, when she got married, her in-laws told her to make selfless contributions to the family.
It's okay to suffer a little injustice. This is the only way for the family to be harmonious and the couple to live together for a long time.
Later, I came to the Hu family.
My mother-in-law said that she was in poor health and could not go to the fields to earn work points, so I had to do housework well and be obedient.
The whole family was very polite to her, and she thought she had arrived in heaven.
Everything changed after she gave birth to a girl, when her mother-in-law and husband learned that she could no longer have children.
