Chapter 619: Disputes
Fu Jingyou wrapped a scarf around Lu Miao at the door.
Seeing that they were about to leave, Tang Mei stopped them and said:
"Are you going out now? We'll have dinner soon."
It’s still a long time before lunch.
But since someone came to our house and sent an invitation, it was a happy occasion and the families all had a good relationship, so they definitely had to invite him to dinner.
You have to eat earlier.
Lu Miao understood what Tang Mei meant, frowned slightly, lowered his head and said nothing, choosing to respond passively.
She wanted to go out for a walk, and since Fu Jingyou had promised her, he would definitely do it.
"Don't worry about it. We're going out for a walk. We may not be back at noon. If we miss lunch, you can just make something to eat."
When Lu Miao heard this, her eyelashes trembled and she looked up at Fu Jingyou with sparkling eyes.
Fu Jingyou looked at her lovingly with his deep peach blossom eyes. He put on her scarf and tucked her collar, then took her hand and led her out the door.
"Walk."
Lu Miao pouted, a little unhappy about being spoiled, but soon became happy again.
When she gets stuck in a rut, her temper is like that of a child.
She would be very happy if Fu Jingyou protected her and supported her.
He obediently let Fu Jingyou lead the way, and Lu Miao followed slowly behind.
Fu Jingyou, a native resident of the era, didn't know what the word "strategy" meant, but before he left the house, he had already considered where to take Lu Miao.
Every household needs to buy New Year's goods, so department stores and supply and marketing cooperatives are crowded now, so you definitely can't go there.
Bookstores and cinemas are much better.
Fu Jingyou drove his father-in-law's car and asked Lu Miao on the way to the bookstore if he had any ideas or places he wanted to go.
Lu Miao shook his head: "Anywhere is fine, as long as we can take a walk."
You can go to the bookstore to have a look.
As for the cinema, Lu Miao had no interest in it when he thought about the old black-and-white movies being shown.
But then I thought, she wasn't interested because she had seen more "flashy" movies and TV shows.
Fu Jingyou has never been to a cinema!
Who knows, maybe he wants to see it?
They had never watched a movie together before, so this was the first time, and it had some special meaning.
As Lu Miao thought about it, he began to look forward to it.
…
During the winter vacation, all the out-of-town students in northern Beijing went home.
There are still some young people in the bookstore, but far fewer people than before.
Fu Jingyou accompanied Lu Miao for a walk.
Lu Miao stood by the bookshelf flipping through books, and he quietly accompanied her beside her.
Finally, they bought a few foreign novels that Lu Miao liked, and then the two got in the car and headed to the cinema in the department store.
Here, the young couple experienced a heartwarming first movie trip.
On the other side, the Fu family courtyard was also busy.
In the main room, three old men were sitting at the table talking.
Xie Fei sat quietly aside.
Ling Yuan held the children in his arms, lifting them up high one by one and teasing them.
Tang Mei was busy cooking in the kitchen. Ling's mother and Yang Yun came to help her, whispering to each other, and the women were chatting animatedly.
As the topic went on and on, somehow it ended up shifting from the newly engaged couple to the cotton-padded jacket on Tang Mei.
At first, Ling's mother praised her, saying that the cotton-padded jacket looked really good and felt thick to the touch, and asked where she bought it.
Tang Mei said it implicitly, not too directly.
But these families are all special families with good family backgrounds, how could they not hear the hidden meaning?
Ling's mother nodded, understanding without saying anything more.
Yang Yun felt that the practice of transferring goods from the south to the north and reselling them was dishonorable and was very pessimistic about it.
But I just said the wrong thing and made the young guy unhappy.
At this moment, Yang Yun didn't want to offend Tang Mei anymore, so she didn't say anything more about it.
However, I heard Ling's mother frequently praising Fu Jingyou for being filial and being good to his parents-in-law.
Yang Yun frowned, but still said:
"It's the son-in-law's responsibility to be filial to his parents-in-law. In other words, which family wouldn't want their daughter-in-law to be filial to her parents-in-law?"
Tang Mei paused, then listened to Yang Yun mutter:
"Now that Baoyatou and Comrade Xiaofu are here, I'm not sure what my parents-in-law will say back home."
To be fair, if her son gets married in the future and his heart is only devoted to his in-laws, she will definitely not be happy.
"Although Xiaobao didn't stay in their hometown, he didn't forget to show his filial piety. He even sent a lot of things to his hometown a few days ago."
Tang Mei heard her hidden meaning and said unhappily:
"When her adoptive father-in-law was ill, wasn't it the young couple who rushed to take him to the doctor? They traveled thousands of miles, isn't that a sign of caring?"
"I didn't mean to say she wasn't paying attention... Isn't it almost Chinese New Year? The old comrades are definitely looking forward to family reunions. If they don't go back, it's a little bit off..."
"You're saying that... they're not going back because they're unwilling to go? Isn't it that Xiaobao is pregnant again? She's been pampered in the past, and now she's heavier. How could she withstand a 20-30 hour train ride? This is a special case, so it requires special treatment."
This is the truth, but Yang Yun still continued to speak:
"We know the situation, but do Baoyatou's parents-in-law know? Even if they do, will they agree?"
You are marrying your daughter-in-law, not marrying into your family.
An adopted son is still a son, and he is one level lower than a biological son.
You raised someone with all your heart and soul, but instead of being filial to him/her, you only care about your daughter-in-law's family. How can this be called?
To put it bluntly, isn't this an ungrateful person?
"Don't worry, my little treasure is fine!"
Tang Mei was really unhappy this time.
"Her adoptive parents-in-law also love her very much. The more than ten chickens in the shed outside were sent by her adoptive parents-in-law to nourish her body."
Tang Mei also likes to nag Lu Miao.
Tang Mei is a woman and also an elder. She is in her thirties or forties, so it is inevitable that she likes to nag the younger ones.
But most of her nagging was for Lu Miao's own good, or as someone who had experienced it, she thought about how to do things better, and her fundamental starting point was good.
But what about Yang Yun?
See what she said?
The words were full of criticism, and Tang Mei didn't like it.
"You're so tired of worrying about everything. If you want to worry, just worry about your kid. I wonder when that blind bastard will ever find a wife!"
Tang Mei’s main theme is mutual harm.
Yang Yun always finds fault with their Xiaobao and is really trying to make things difficult for her. So how can she let Yang Yun live well?
Definitely not.
As expected, Yang Yun became anxious after hearing her words:
"We're talking, but what do you mean? It's New Year's Day, and you're deliberately cursing my child?"
Tang Mei looked at her coldly:
"Didn't you start it first?"
It's such a festive atmosphere, but you have to say something irrelevant.
She said one sentence, and she replied ten sentences, and it went on and on.
"Why are you like this?!"
Yang Yun was so angry that she dropped the green onions she was picking.
"How am I?"
Tang Mei questioned.
