Chapter 287 You are such a disgrace
Chen Pingliang agreed with a smile. Wei Guoan was hungry, so he picked up his chopsticks and said, "Uncle, aunt, I'm hungry, so I won't be polite..."
Zhang Guifang and Li Baotian didn't understand a word he said, so Chen Pingliang translated for him.
"Brother Wei, don't just focus on eating. Let's drink something."
Wei Guoan glanced at Zhou Yong and said, "I'm almost starving to death. Let me eat a few bites of food..."
Zhou Yong smiled and started drinking with Chen Pingliang.
Wei Guoan ate half his fill, then picked up the wine bowl and started drinking with them.
Those who didn't drink left the table after dinner, and the three of them drank and chatted.
Zhou Xia greeted everyone and went to Zhou Ling's house with her two daughters.
Zhou Ling didn't recognize her elder sister until Zhou Xia started talking, then she knew who the person in front of her was.
“Big sister?”
Zhou Xia smiled and nodded, and Zhou Ling excitedly went forward and hugged her.
"Sister, I will never see you again in this life..."
As she spoke, Zhou Ling began to cry, and Zhou Xia looked at her two daughters.
If Zhou Xia hadn't learned that the sisters were helpless, she really had no intention of coming back.
After all, this is a sad place. When you come back, you have to open the scars and face the miserable experiences of the past.
The two sisters walked into the house while talking, holding hands and chatting.
"Sister, are you doing well these days? Why don't you write me a letter?"
Zhou Xia looked around her sister's home and said with a smile, "I'm doing well. You don't have to worry about me."
Zhou Ling could tell from her elder sister's dress and appearance that Zhou Xia was living a good life now.
"Sister, your dress is really beautiful. Did it cost a lot of money?"
Zhou Xia looked down at her clothes and said, "It didn't cost much."
Zhou Ling pouted: "Do you really think I'm an old-fashioned person? A few days ago, I went to the provincial capital and went to the department store to hang out. I saw a similar dress that cost more than 200 yuan. I was so scared that I took Zhao Min away..."
After hearing what her sister said, Zhou Xia gently patted the back of Zhou Ling's hand and changed the subject: "How have you been these years? I heard from my eldest brother that your family is doing well, and you are also the women's director of our village..."
Zhou Ling smiled and said, "Sister, now every household in our village is living a good life..."
Huaixi Village changes every year, and Zhou Xia's face is full of smiles when she hears about it.
"By the way, sister, have you come back to see your parents?"
The smile on Zhou Xia's face gradually disappeared. She shook her head gently and her eyes fell on her two daughters.
"How are they?"
Zhou Ling sighed and talked about the experiences of Cui Shufen and Zhou Jiefang over the years.
Zhou Xia didn't react much after hearing this. Before she got married, her parents didn't like her because she was not good at talking. After she got married, she didn't have much contact with her parents' family.
"Sister, if mom and dad knew you were back, they would be very happy."
Zhou Xia slowly let go of Zhou Ling's hand: "I don't plan to visit them."
Zhou Ling froze, she looked at Zhou Xia: "Sister, I know you resent my parents, how can I not resent them? But they are old, and they won't live for many more years, it's enough for them to be able to live on the surface..."
After Zhou Xia heard Zhou Ling's words of advice, her eyes were full of sarcasm: "In my parents' eyes, I am not as important as an animal. They married me off and ignored me..."
Zhou Ling was speechless. After Zhou Xia finished speaking, she spoke again: "Do you know that Xiaoyue and Xiaoqiu went to live with their parents? If they had me in their hearts, how could they reject my two daughters? Fortunately, they still remember their eldest brother, otherwise I dare not imagine what would happen..."
Zhou Ling was completely unaware of this matter because on the day the two sisters came to Huaixi Village, Zhao Min was hospitalized and she was accompanying him in the hospital.
When Zhou Ling learned what had happened, her face changed.
"Mom and Dad are too much. How could they do this?"
Zhou Xia curled her red lips: "Isn't that how they are? In the hearts of my parents, only the three brothers are the most important. As for us, we are nothing in their eyes..."
Zhou Ling sighed after hearing this: "That's true. Sister, let's not talk about these unhappy things, let's talk about something else..."
The two sisters haven't seen each other for many years and have endless things to talk about.
Just as the two sisters were chatting enthusiastically, Cui Shufen came.
When she entered the room, she didn't recognize her eldest daughter Zhou Xia, and she frowned when she saw the two sisters Leng Yue and Leng Qiu.
"Why are they in your house?"
Zhou Ling looked at her mother, then at Zhou Xia who was sitting motionless on the edge of the kang.
"Mom, look who this is?"
Cui Shufen looked at Zhou Xia and asked, "Who is she?"
Zhou Ling sighed in her heart: "Mom, she is my eldest sister Zhou Xia."
Cui Shufen's eyes widened, her tone full of surprise: "Zhou Xia?"
Zhou Xia looked at her mother without saying anything, and Zhou Ling responded from the side.
"How dare you come back, you damned girl?"
Zhou Xia frowned and looked at Cui Shufen who was about to attack: "Why can't I come back?"
Cui Shufen raised her finger and pointed at her: "You eloped with a strange man, and you still have the nerve to come back?"
Zhou Xia smiled and said, "I eloped with a wild man? Who told you?"
The Leng family told Cui Shufen, and she was furious at the time. No matter how Zhou Ling explained, she was convinced that Zhou Xia had eloped with someone.
Because in Cui Shufen's opinion, if Zhou Xia had not eloped with a strange man, why didn't she dare to show up for so many years?
After hearing what Cui Shufen said, Zhou Xia said expressionlessly: "Okay, I admit that I eloped with a wild man. Are you satisfied now?"
"Big sister?"
Zhou Xia shook her head slightly, and Zhou Ling rolled her eyes at her mother in anger.
Cui Shufen pointed at Zhou Xia and said, "I knew the Leng family wouldn't slander you. So, you admit it yourself, right?"
Zhou Xia stood up, too lazy to tell Cui Shufen about those things.
"What are you doing?"
Zhou Xia said in a very cold tone: "What I do has nothing to do with you."
Cui Shufen grabbed Zhou Xia and said, "You are such a disgrace, how dare you talk to me like this?"
Zhou Xia shook off Cui Shufen's pull, straightened her clothes, called Leng Yue and Leng Qiu and was about to leave, but her way was blocked by Cui Shufen.
Zhou Ling sighed: "Mom, what are you doing?"
Cui Shufen looked at Zhou Ling fiercely: "Before I asked you where she was, you said you didn't know. You little bitch, I knew it was you two who were conspiring to deceive me..."
Zhou Ling sighed, "Mom, you believe whatever the Leng family says. I've told you that my eldest sister didn't elope with a wild man. She was sold out by the Leng family. Why don't you believe what I say?"
Cui Shufen was furious: "You lied to me. I went to your elder sister's village to inquire about it. She ran away with a strange man..."
Zhou Ling didn't want to explain: "Well, even if that's the case, so what? The Leng family is a den of wolves. How much suffering did my eldest sister suffer when she married there? That old woman Leng threw her own granddaughter to death with her own hands. Don't you know these things..."
Zhou Xia gave birth to five daughters for the Leng family, but her youngest daughter was thrown to death by her grandmother not long after she was born.
Afterwards, Zhou Xia returned to her parents' home heartbroken. Cui Shufen and her husband not only ignored her, but also accused her of making up stories. They forced her to return to her husband's home in the midst of heavy snow.
The past events are still vivid in her mind. With such parents, why should Zhou Xia regard them as her own relatives?
