Chapter 46 Persuasion
Aunt Su also came out of the kitchen, wiping her hands on her apron. When she heard Chu Hong's words, her heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly greeted them with a smile, "Hey, Chu Hong and Chu Dan, you're here. Come in and sit down. I'll cook some poached eggs for you."
Ever since her husband became the branch secretary, she no longer felt the need to consider her eldest daughter-in-law's family, and naturally she was more partial to her grandson and her pregnant younger daughter-in-law.
When I came back yesterday, I saw Chu Tong feeding malted milk to Xiao Yuer. My grandson who came home with me must have been greedy after smelling the aroma and was also clamoring for malted milk.
I asked Chu Tong to make another bowl of tea for my grandson, but Chu Tong refused, saying that she had finished eating.
While he was talking, he let Xiao Yuer drink up the rest.
How could this not make her furious?
He immediately scolded her for only caring about the little girl and giving her special treatment.
If Chu Tong didn't say anything, then she would just nag casually.
But Chu Tong retorted, saying that it was bought by her sister for Xiao Yuer, so it couldn't be considered as eating alone.
This almost pissed off Aunt Su to death. When the eldest brother came back, of course she exaggerated and said bad things about Chu Tong.
Who would have thought that the eldest brother not only beat Chu Tong, but also beat his granddaughter.
What she didn't expect was that her husband came in hurriedly and said that Chu Tong couldn't be allowed to go back to her parents' home, and that she had to coax her eldest daughter-in-law herself, saying that the in-laws were now in charge of supply matters, and the eldest daughter-in-law must not be allowed to go back to her parents' home, lest the in-laws have opinions about them.
In the future, he will deliberately do bad things even if there is any good thing.
At that time, Aunt Su asked him unwillingly: "You are also the Party Secretary, are you afraid of him?"
Secretary Su's reply was decisive and easy to understand: "Why can't you treat those two daughters-in-law equally?"
"When Chu Hong asked for six tractors for the town, he didn't take advantage of the opportunity to take Qiao away, so the leaders of the commune remembered him."
"There was only one team leader before, but now there are nearly a hundred branch secretaries. How can the leaders remember us? It will take a few years to make us familiar to everyone."
"Old Song is lucky. His daughter's divorce actually caught the attention of his superiors. I have many opportunities to use him."
It was just that he didn't want to admit that he was inferior to his in-laws, so he never told his family about it.
Besides, he also felt that he and Lao Song were both branch secretaries, so why should he be inferior to others?
But now the leader has recognized Secretary Song, so he can only admit defeat.
Aunt Su originally thought that it would be Secretary Song who came, so she kept paying attention, but she heard that Secretary Song had already left.
She breathed a sigh of relief before she could do anything, but unexpectedly, Song Chuhong and Song Chudan came.
She could only say about her son: "Children are bound to be naughty. Your eldest brother-in-law has a bad temper, so he hit Xiao Yuer."
"Your elder sister was so distressed that the two of them had a quarrel. It's a good opportunity for you to come. Please persuade your elder sister to calm down."
At her age, of course she knows how to say nice things.
Chu Hong admired her very much for her ability to speak and to save face. If she had not listened to Gu Ci's words before, she would probably have really thought that it was a quarrel between husband and wife, rather than a quarrel between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law.
She also smiled while holding the child: "I'm going to go see my eldest sister."
They all knew Chu Tong's room, so they strode over without her leading the way.
Chu Dan's Qi-cultivation skills are not good enough, and he is not able to hide his emotions. Ever since he saw the bruises on Xiao Yuer's face, he has been following his second sister with a sullen face.
Aunt Su was so disrespected by them that she looked very unhappy. She sighed deeply and went to the kitchen.
She knows how to live. It's not even New Year's Eve yet, so she definitely won't want to eat meat.
But he also doted on his grandson and steamed a bowl of egg custard for him.
Now, in order to make Chu Tong calm down and make Chu Hong and Chu Dan think that she treated their daughter-in-law well, she sent the egg custard over.
Chu Hong went to her elder sister's room and saw her lying on the bed. She mistakenly thought that her elder sister was beaten by her brother-in-law and was horrified: "Sister, what happened to you?"
"I'm fine." Seeing that her two sisters looked like they were going to fight someone, Chu Tong could only tell the truth: "I had my period and my stomach hurt, so I didn't get up."
Chu Dan breathed a sigh of relief: "I was scared to death."
Chu Hong was also relieved: "We just bought some sanitary belts and toilet paper, so we'll leave some for you."
Chu Dan responded, put down the backpack, and stuffed two packs of toilet paper and a sanitary belt into her hands: "Don't use toilet paper anymore, just use this."
Chu Hong also took out a bag of fried dough twist and stuffed it into her hand: "Keep it for you and Xiao Yu'er to fill your stomach when you are hungry."
Aunt Su came in carrying egg custard and saw this scene, which moved her heart.
Mahua is fried and made of flour, so it is very fragrant. Of course, it is not cheap, costing 70 cents per pound, which is almost as much as the price of meat.
Anyway, she would never be willing to buy it.
I didn't expect Chu Hong to be so generous, and I was once again sure that she still had a lot of money.
When she thought about her nephew from her mother's side wanting to marry Chu Hong, she worried about how to make it happen.
She placed the egg custard beside the bed and said with a smile, "Hongqi also regretted it and asked me to make a bowl of egg custard for Xiaoyuer. Let Xiaoyuer eat it while it's hot."
Then he said to Chu Hong and Chu Dan enthusiastically, "You haven't been here for a long time. You must stay for lunch today. I'll go cut some meat and stew tofu, and cook a pot of white rice."
Chu Hong hadn't asked her elder sister what happened yet, so she couldn't keep a cold face, so she could only refuse with a smile: "Don't be polite, aunt, we are in a hurry to go back, otherwise our family will worry, come back to pay New Year's greetings next year."
"Then I won't keep you here." Aunt Su went to get them two cups of sugar water and handed them over before she left with a smile: "I'll go cook first, you guys chat slowly."
Chu Hong waited until she left before looking at Chu Tong and asking, "Why did he hit Xiao Yu'er?"
The smile on Chu Tong's face disappeared: "He said that I gave Xiao Yu'er all the food, but you gave me the malted milk, why should I be generous?"
Chu Dan rolled his eyes and said, "Su Xiaojun is so fat that he's almost two small fish. I think he's the one who eats alone all the time, right?"
Chu Hong looked at her inquiringly: "Did he hit you?"
Chu Tong barely moved the corners of her mouth, her eyes wandering: "She pushed me, she didn't hit me."
But that blow pushed her to the ground, and the back of her head hit the cabinet. It hurt so much that it took her a while to recover.
But if she told it, it would only make her family worry about her.
Besides, every family’s life is filled with quarrels and fights.
Even if she let her parents make decisions for her, they could not live her life for her, and would only make her a laughing stock.
In fact, she was particularly envious of Chu Hong, who lived a better life after the divorce.
When she felt wronged, she also thought about whether she could get a divorce.
But my sister on my natal side is already divorced, and if I get divorced too, people will definitely gossip about me.
Chu Hong could now understand some of her thoughts and advised her: "Who doesn't have people talking behind their backs? Men and women are equal now, so don't put yourself in a difficult position. If he dares to do something to you, you might as well stop the loss in time."
"Besides, even if you don't care about yourself, you still have to think about Xiaoyuer. There are three sisters in our family. Has our father ever raised a finger?"
