Chapter 343: Came to deal with Zhuang Chaoying
"I just... I just hope they can be filial to the elderly... The elderly don't have any requirements, just want them to visit more often..."
"They just want to be looked at? They need to empty your pockets and give it to the third brother! And they also want you to serve them!"
The two were arguing when Huang Ling appeared at the door without them noticing.
Zhuang Chaoying looked at Huang Ling in horror.
Huang Ling took a step forward, stepped on the glasses on the ground, and slapped him.
"A Ling..." Zhuang Chaoying wanted to explain something, but Huang Ling slapped him again.
He was about to raise his head to speak, but Huang Ling slapped him again, causing his face to swell up immediately.
"Filial piety, bullshit! He shouldn't even want to be filial to you, let alone those two old guys!" Huang Ling said fiercely, "I'm telling you, if those two old guys want to suck the children's blood, they have to ask my permission!"
"And me!" Zhu Xiuyu continued.
Zhuang Chaoying covered half of his face and responded in a low voice:
"I didn't, Aling, I didn't mean that... I just..."
"Get lost! Stop making excuses! Just because I didn't go and Tunan didn't tell anyone when he came back doesn't mean I don't know what happened there! I have plenty of ways to find out! Don't even think about escaping my sight. It's my greatest mercy to let Tunan see them once a year, and you still dare to act like a demon!"
Zhuang Chaoying, I'm telling you, Tunan is no pushover! Even less so, me! Go warn those two old bastards not to mess with these youngsters, let alone me! Otherwise, I'll make your third son rot in jail!"
Zhuang Chaoying stared at Huang Ling blankly and could only shake his head.
"Do you understand what I mean by 'provoke'? You don't understand, right? I'll explain it to you, please listen carefully!
First, if you meet someone on the road, just call them grandpa or grandma, and bow to them when they die. That’s all the relationship is.
Second, you are responsible for their birth, old age, sickness and death, but the children are not, so the children will not care, neither contribute any effort nor money, it has nothing to do with them, do you understand?
If you can understand what I mean, Tunan and Pengfei will still look at you in the future. If you don’t understand, you will bear the consequences at your own risk!"
Zhuang Chaoying lowered his head.
Zhu Xiuyu did not let him go either:
"Just be filial, but if you drag the children down, I'll divorce you! I used to care about the children, but since you're going to ruin them anyway, why not just get over it? Even if I can't finish my studies or get a job, we can still survive!"
Zhuang Chaoying suddenly raised his head and looked at the two women in front of him, feeling a huge fear in his heart.
"I'm not... I didn't..."
"Shut up! If you have to fart, go fart at those two piles of shit in your house!" Huang Ling stopped him and said to Zhu Xiuyu, "You're right about the old saying! Good people don't live long, but evildoers last for thousands of years. How come they can't die? If they die, I'm really going to set off firecrackers for three days to celebrate!"
Zhu Xiuyu quickly nodded: "That's right."
Huang Ling glanced at Zhuang Chaoying and then gave Zhu Xiuyu a look.
The two of them left the house.
Huang Ling picked up a bag that had been placed on the bench at the door and handed it to Zhu Xiuyu:
"I came to give Hongbin some new clothes. I originally thought I wouldn't be able to finish them, so I was thinking about sending them to his school in Shanghai sometime. But the goods were delivered today, so I brought them here. It's just in time for you to leave, and I can go back with Tunan by the way."
"These clothes are still new. I'll make them again." Zhu Xiu Yu took the clothes.
"It's just a small matter."
"Thank you, Aling. Tunan just left..."
"Oh, we just happened to run into the three of them at the entrance of the alley. They went to help me chase the roasted sweet potato stall."
"Then I'll take you there."
Zhu Xiuyu put the clothes away and came back to see Huang Ling off.
"Hongbin told me about this when he came back yesterday. I knew Tuanan wouldn't tell you, but I was thinking of telling you about it tomorrow at work. They are going too far, so I must tell you." Zhu Xiu Yu explained.
She saw that Huang Ling was not just here to deliver clothes, but was here specifically to deal with Zhuang Chaoying, so it seemed that Huang Ling already knew what happened at Zhuang's house yesterday.
"It's okay. I noticed something was wrong with Tunan, so I followed him to ask him about it. I know Hongbin didn't need to go, but he went with me because he was afraid that his brother would suffer." Huang Ling looked at the three children who were chatting and laughing with Zhou Huaiyi at the entrance of the alley.
"Well, Hongbin is not good at speaking and can't help, but he knows in his heart who is good to him and who is not. I am not afraid that he will fall into the trap of those two people." Zhu Xiu Yu shook her head and smiled.
The two families said goodbye at the entrance of the alley.
Although Zhuang Chaoying did not go to see Tunan off, Pengfei insisted on going.
When Pengfei returned home, he saw Zhuang Chaoying lying on the bed, sleeping on his side, so he didn't call him.
Just now, when Zhou Huaiyi stopped the three of them at the entrance of the alley to chat, he knew that his Aunt Huang had come to deal with his uncle.
Looking at Zhuang Chaoying's back, he sighed softly. The scene of going to his grandparents' house yesterday came to his mind again. He felt that it was no wonder that Aunt Huang was angry.
──
Huang Ling and her friends waited for Captain Xu's family to leave on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year before returning to Suzhou.
Pengfei came back on the tenth day, which was three days late. Tunan thought that after Pengfei came back on the tenth day, they would go to his grandparents' house together.
On the first day of the new year, Zhuang Chaoying had already told his parents about the situation when he went to see them.
Unexpectedly, on the 11th, Zhuang Chaoying took the two of them there, but they didn't get a good reception.
Zhuang's father said intermittently: "On the first day of the new year, kowtow and wish a happy new year."
Zhuang Chaoying sighed and said, "Didn't I tell you already? Why are you still bringing this up?"
Mother Zhuang glared at Zhuang Chaoying, then checked what they had brought with them and said, "Tsk tsk!"
"It's such a waste of time to raise them! These things are exactly the same as last year. Didn't I hear that Tunan bought new clothes for his stepmother? We, the grandparents, have never worn your clothes! And Pengfei, tell your mother not to bring these useless things in the future. I'm afraid she'll be unhappy if I throw them away..."
Tuanan looked at Zhuang Chaoying. It must be Zhuang Chaoying who told them this, otherwise no one would have told them.
"Aunt Zhu works very hard to take care of Pengfei and me. It's normal for me to buy her some clothes."
"You kid, you're saying that we don't deserve it because we didn't take care of you!" Zhuang's mother's face turned pale.
Tunan didn't respond, but just smiled.
"Zhuang Chaoying, you are a teacher, but look at the ungrateful people you taught." The blame fell on Zhuang Chaoying.
"Grandma, the term ungrateful refers to those who are ungrateful and repay kindness with enmity. I don't think I am one of them." Tuanan said frankly.
"Grandma, open the closet and see if you have any new clothes to wear. You asked your uncle to buy some before the New Year. It's not even the fifteenth day of the lunar month yet, and you've picked the most worn-out clothes to wear. Are you afraid of showing off your wealth? I thought you were changing into some old clothes so you could cook for us!" Pengfei replied.
Zhuang's mother glared at him, "Did I say it was about the clothes? It's about filial piety! We in the Zhuang family have never raised such an unfilial person! Your uncle is the most filial."
"How is Third Uncle filial? Let me hear you tell me so I can learn from him. How much money did he give to me, how many clothes did he buy for me, and how he carried his shit and urine? Let's not talk about the present, let's talk about the past." Tuanan smiled lightly.
"You!" Zhuang's mother was furious when she heard him mention his third uncle.
"It turns out that my father is the only filial one! Maybe I am like my third uncle!" Tuanan replied.
"Yeah, maybe I'm like my mom," Pengfei nodded, "I only carry useless things."
"Stop talking." Zhuang Chaoying interrupted the communication between the three people.
After Mr. Zhuang threw out an enamel pot, the three of them left the Zhuang family.
