Chapter 419 Some are happy, some are sad
In the evening, the two of them followed Mr. Tan and his companions back to Sihe Village.
The little ones grew very fast, changing almost every day. When Shang Ruoting was discharged from the hospital seven days later, each baby had gained about one kilogram in weight.
The originally red and wrinkled little face became whiter and whiter.
Especially Dabao, he seems to understand everything. As long as someone holds him, he will grin.
On the day of discharge, considering the limited carrying capacity of the jeep, neither Mrs. Shang nor Mr. Tan came, and only Xiao Liu drove to the hospital to pick him up.
Shang Ruoting, Tan Chen, Jiang Ping, and Tan Shaowen, each holding a little one, returned safely to Sihe Village.
The news that Shang Ruoting gave birth to two sons and two daughters had already spread in the village, and the villagers all wanted to see what the quadruplets looked like.
Therefore, many people who love faith will look outside from time to time no matter how cold the weather is.
At this time, at Tan Mingshan's house, the three of them sat on the kang with sad faces.
"Dad, Mom, please say something. Cao Huahua from the village is pretty and capable. I fell in love with her at first sight. How about the betrothal gift?" Tan Kai's tone was obviously a little impatient.
Zou Meihua sighed helplessly, "Son, it's not that Mom doesn't want to help you. Cao Huahua's family relies on her beauty and is asking for a 300 yuan betrothal gift."
"You know our family's situation. The farm hasn't made any money this year, and your father is in the hospital and the expenses are high. We really can't afford that much money."
Zou Meihua contracted a farm and thought that if she fed the chickens more, the egg production would increase.
Unexpectedly, she spent a lot of money on buying rice bran, but the egg production was still so low, especially at this time, the weather was cold and the chickens didn't lay eggs at all. So much food was eaten in vain every day. If this continued, no one in their family would have money to buy food.
Tan Kai did not give up. He finally met a beautiful girl and he did not want to give up just like that.
"Mom, just think of a way! If all else fails, go borrow some from Tan Chen?"
Tan Mingshan, who had been sitting quietly by the side, slammed the table when he heard Tan Chen's name.
"Shut up! How dare you borrow money from Tan Chen?"
Since returning from the hospital, Tan Mingshan has become a different person. He no longer tolerates Zou Meihua and her son like before. He thought that as a man, it was okay for him to suffer some grievances, and as long as the family was harmonious, it was more important than anything else.
But what is the result?
He was totally wrong.
A good family was ruined by the shrew Zou Meihua. She even severed all ties with her filial and sensible son whom she had raised for more than 20 years.
If Zou Meihua hadn't made a fuss, even if Tan Chen's biological parents came, they would still maintain a harmonious relationship. At the same time, his parents who were high-ranking officials would be grateful to their family.
When Zou Meihua saw Tan Mingshan yelling at his beloved son, she stood up and pointed at Tan Mingshan's nose and yelled.
"Tan Mingshan, open your eyes and see clearly. Tan Kai is your biological son. Don't focus your thoughts on irrelevant people."
I have supported Tan Chen for twenty years in vain, but what benefit did I get in the end?
People are living such a good life now, but when you were injured, no one came to see you. You should have some self-awareness!"
Seeing this, Tan Kai also chimed in: "My mom is right. I don't know what kind of shit luck Tan Chen had. She gave birth to four little kids at once. It is said that they were born in a big hospital in the provincial capital. That must have cost a lot of money.
Everyone in the village said that Tan Chen's family has more money than they can spend, so why not borrow some from him?
When it comes to Tan Chen having four children at once, Zou Meihua becomes extremely jealous.
Although the family planning policy has not yet been fully implemented, propaganda banners have begun to be hung in the streets and alleys. It is only a matter of time before the policy of a couple being able to have only one child is implemented.
Tan Chen had four children at once, not only a son but also a daughter and a daughter, and he could also ignore this policy naturally.
Zou Meihua couldn't help but curse in her heart: Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen are really just as Tan Kai said, I don't know what kind of shit luck they have, they gave birth to four children at once.
"Tan Mingshan, I know you have your own ideas and don't want to listen to me, but Tan Kai is your biological son after all. Tan Chen already has four children, but our Tan Kai doesn't even have a wife. As the head of the family, shouldn't you think of a way to deal with such a big thing?"
Zou Meihua now knows that Tan Mingshan will not buy into her old tricks. After yelling at her, he softened his stance again. She hopes that he can come forward to borrow money from Tan Chen.
