Chapter 112 Zhuang Laodeng is driving Zhuang Chaoying crazy
Zhuang's father and mother came to see Zhuang Chaoying every few days.
Crying and sobbing.
noisy.
Cursing.
Most of them asked him to go back for help or for money.
Zhuang Chaoying was extremely annoyed.
The most recent time, Zhuang's mother also brought Zhendong and Zhenbei with her.
When I arrived, it was dinner time.
Zhuang Chaoying cooked rice and fried three dishes, one of which was meat.
The two children pounced on the table and started eating like wolves. Zhuang's mother sat down to eat without any hesitation, which made Tuanan and Pengfei stunned.
"Grandma, just come if you want to. Brother Tuanan and I are starving, so we just give the food to Zhendong and Zhenbei. There is no need to starve them for a whole day." Pengfei pointed out to her without any politeness.
Both of them have salaries and enough food. You said it's possible that they don't have money to buy meat because they have to pay debts, but how is it possible that they are so hungry?
"Mom! You are such a jerk!" Zhuang Chaoying really wanted to curse.
Zhuang's mother didn't say anything. After she was full, she started wiping her tears, not considering at all that her two grandchildren hadn't eaten a bite.
"Tunan, Pengfei..." Zhuang Chaoying called out.
"Oh, uncle, brother Tuanan and I will go and order some noodles ourselves. There are some moldy noodles that you didn't want to throw away last time. Let's eat them!" Pengfei was much more flexible than Tuanan and took over immediately.
"Well, go ahead! Smell it again, take a look. If it's really moldy, don't eat it. Go borrow some from Aunt He. I'll buy some and return it to her tomorrow."
"Okay, got it."
The two went to the kitchen to cook.
"Where can you find moldy noodles? Moldy noodles can't be eaten!" Tuanan asked.
"Brother, why are you so honest? Of course there are no moldy noodles! That means you are telling grandma that the only things we can take away this time are the moldy noodles." Pengfei shook his head.
Tunan really admires him for being able to brag without changing his expression.
"Brother, boil some water first."
While giving instructions to Tunan, Pengfei opened their rice jar. The rice inside was still in the bag. He took the rice and put it in Aunt He's cupboard.
He took out a cloth bag from under his cupboard, opened it and exclaimed, "Oh!" Then he quickly tightened the bag and put it into his rice jar.
"What is this?" Tunan asked.
"Aunt He put away the noodles, but she was reluctant to eat them and ended up getting moldy. She wanted to throw them away, so I asked for them." Pengfei said proudly.
"Pengfei, you are so awesome, you must have left it there on purpose!" Tuanan understood.
"Of course she comes every few days. Last time, she stole five kilograms of rice. My uncle eats less every day and saves it for us two. If I let her take it away a second time, I won't be named Xiang!"
The ration was there, and there were three men, so it was already difficult enough. Fortunately, they could go to Huang Ling's house for a few meals a month to make up for it. Now they were five kilograms short, and they had to either starve or go to the black market to get food coupons to buy more.
Zhuang Chaoying didn't dare to go to the black market at all, so he could only eat less himself to make sure his two children were full.
Only then did he realize the importance of rationing. Before, it was only Huang Ling who was hungry.
He admired Huang Ling even more for her courage to go to the black market to buy food in order to feed her family.
After the food was taken away, when Zhuang Chaoying bought more rice, Pengfei went to put it in the jar. He did not pour the rice into the jar, but directly put it into a rice bag so that he could carry it away in one hand. At the same time, he also prepared moldy noodles.
Take it if you want it!
In the room, Zhuang's mother was still crying and burping.
"Mom, what do you want to do this time?" Zhuang Chaoying asked unhappily.
"We're both older..."
"What? You forced Pengfei on me, and now you want to force Zhendong and Zhenbei on me. Is that how you do things?" Zhuang Chaoying's impatience was written on his face.
He now thinks that if Huang Ling were there, would he agree?
Because he would say, just two more children, how much can they eat, how much trouble can it cause.
He couldn't say this now. He had two grown boys to take care of and it was quite a lot for him to do. Only then did he understand Huang Ling's displeasure.
"You can't just ignore them! They are your nephews..."
"I can't take care of myself, and you want me to take care of two elderly people and four children. How on earth did you come up with this? I'm really going crazy!"
"We don't need your care!" Zhuang's mother seemed quite reasonable.
"If you continue like this, I will have no choice but to run away. I will go sailing and never come ashore for the rest of my life. Then you will not only have to take care of Gu Zhen and Dong Zhenbei, but also Tu Nan and Peng Fei!"
Zhuang Chaoying slammed the table, and his gesture was very similar to his father's.
Mother Zhuang looked at Zhuang Chaoying in surprise and could only say aggrievedly:
"I'm not forcing it on you, I just want our family to live together and have someone to look after us."
"I can't take care of it. I can't move back!"
"If you can take care of Pengfei, why can't you take care of your own nephew?" Zhuang's mother's voice became louder.
"Grandma, it's different! My mom has entrusted me with seeking refuge, and my uncle and I now share the same household registration! My mom also gives me living expenses every month."
Xiang Pengfei sat on the small stool at the door and ate with his bowl of noodles while talking to the people inside.
"What do you know, kid? Don't interrupt!" Zhuang's mother yelled in the house.
After Pengfei's reminder, Zhuang Chaoying woke up and immediately responded:
"Mom, if you really can't take care of them, these two children are not orphans. They have a mother. You can just give them to Lin Fang. If she doesn't want them, you can ask her for child support. I don't have any obligation, but she does!"
Zhuang's mother was speechless.
"Lin Fang doesn't want the child and won't give me money. You can go to her factory, ask the neighborhood committee to send her to an orphanage. It doesn't matter what you do. I can't take care of so many children anyway! It's useless to force me."
"Chaoying, you are so cruel! If you don't take care of Gu Zhendong and Zhenbei, you have to ask us parents for money! As the eldest son of the family, you have to help us pay back some of the money we owe!"
Zhuang's mother could only settle for the second best and make sure to get something away.
Zhuang Chaoying's eyes turned red, and he finally understood what bloodsucking meant.
But these were his parents, and he really couldn't refuse.
Finally, he went back to the bank and invited people from the neighborhood committee to come over.
Under the witness of the neighborhood committee, he and Zhuang's father and mother signed an agreement.
He gave his parents fifteen yuan a month to help them pay off their debts for five years. However, Zhuang's parents were no longer allowed to ask him to raise his two nephews or return to live at their home, nor could they visit his house and disturb his normal life.
The comrades from the neighborhood committee initially supported Zhuang's father and mother, saying that living together would allow them to take care of each other.
However, Zhuang Chaoying suddenly said:
"Deputy Director Zhou, have you forgotten what A-Ling said to you earlier? You're so noble and kind, why don't you let our two nephews live with you? Or maybe you could take care of our parents too!"
Deputy Director Zhou's mind was flooded with memories. At that time, Zhuang's mother broke her foot and asked him to come and persuade her. As a result, Huang Ling wanted to send her home.
Thinking of this, his face suddenly turned purple, and he turned around to persuade Zhuang's father and mother.
Finally, when leaving, Deputy Director Zhou sighed: "Teacher Zhuang, with all these children in the house, the family is still missing a woman!"
Zhuang Chaoying thought of Huang Ling.
It would be nice if she were here.
