Then Sun Xiu said, "Mom, I came here this time to discuss donating more food."
When the people in the room heard this, they were stunned.
Old Lady Sun hesitated and said, "My daughter, we have already donated the food this time, so there is no need for you to donate again."
Uncle Sun and others also echoed.
"We have to donate. If we don't, our family will be too embarrassed to be included in the family tree."
Uncle Sun immediately retorted, "Sister, that's nothing. Outsiders may not know the situation, but how can we not know it?"
Uncle Sun also spoke up, "Yes, you don't need to take out any more food."
Sun Xiu shook her head. "To be honest, we didn't want to agree last night because we felt we weren't qualified. But then Xiao Xu said he would donate more so that everyone would feel comfortable accepting it."
Li Jiakang agreed, "Yes, besides, this is also a good deed, accumulating blessings for the family."
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Sun and others were speechless.
After a moment's silence, Old Lady Sun said helplessly, "Then I'll ask your brother to call your uncle over. We need to talk to him about this."
She originally thought that this was a good thing and that Sun Xiu and others would definitely be happy to accept it.
But unexpectedly, Sun Xiu's family felt like they were being held in a trap.
This made her regret telling them about it in advance.
After seeing Sun Xiu's agreement, Old Lady Sun asked Uncle Sun to go find Captain Sun.
The other people in the room just sat and chatted.
Not long after, Captain Sun followed Uncle Sun in.
Everyone in the room came forward and greeted him again.
Captain Sun responded with a laugh and said, "I was wondering why you had two more bicycles at home. It turns out you have a distinguished guest."
Sun Xiu looked embarrassed and said, "Uncle, please stop teasing me. We are not really guests."
"Of course it counts. Not only are all of you capable, but you were also able to get the dog a job. If that doesn't count, then few people can."
Sun Xiu couldn't continue after hearing this.
There is no way around it. The local custom is that a married daughter is considered a guest when she returns to her parents' home.
This "guest" does not mean that he no longer regards his daughter as his own family.
But after returning to your parents' home, you will no longer be allowed to do the work you used to do, and your son-in-law will be treated with the same respect as a guest.
For example, when conditions were better before, Sun Xiu and others had dinner at Uncle Sun's house. After dinner, Sun Xiu wanted to clear the table as she did before, but was rejected by Uncle Sun and others.
Every time Li Jiakang comes, he enjoys the best sweet soup treatment.
Old Lady Sun said, "Brother, they are all family, there is no need to be polite. I called you here today to discuss something."
Captain Sun laughed again. "Sister-in-law, I'm just happy, so I wanted to tease them. If you have anything to say, just tell me. I asked Erhei on the road just now, but he didn't say anything."
Uncle Sun: ...
Sun Xiu's family: ...
There's nothing we can do about it, since Captain Sun is of a higher seniority.
Not to mention that Sun Xiu is only in her thirties, even if she is sixty, if Captain Sun wants to tease her, she can only smile along.
Old Madam Sun said, "Xiu'er came here today to discuss the matter of her family being included in the family tree."
Captain Sun was stunned. "What's there to discuss? It's already been decided. I've also discussed it with a few uncles, and everyone agrees with it."
"Now Xiu'er's family feels that they have done nothing and are not qualified to be included, so they decided to donate more food so that they can accept it with peace of mind."
Upon hearing this, Captain Sun jumped up from his stool, his eyes wide open, and looked at Old Lady Sun excitedly, "Old sister-in-law, are you telling the truth?"
Old Mrs. Sun nodded. "Really? Besides, their whole family is here too. Let them talk to you."
Captain Sun turned his head instantly and looked at Sun Xiu and others.
Sun Xiu said, "Uncle, this is true, but the food will not be delivered until a month later."
Captain Sun rubbed his hands excitedly, "Okay, okay, as long as I can have it, it's fine. Besides, I can't use it right now. Xiu'er, uncle must thank you very much."
Sun Xiu waved her hand. "We are all family. We should help each other. You helped us before, and now it's our turn to help you. Why bother saying thank you?"
After hearing this, Captain Sun sighed, "As expected, our ancestors were right. People of the same clan should stick together."
Uncle Sun and the others immediately laughed, "That's right, the ancestors must be right, otherwise they wouldn't have set up such ancestral precepts."
Then Captain Sun asked, "Xiu'er, how much food does your family plan to donate this time?"
"One hundred pounds of fine grain."
Captain Sun was shocked again. He asked in astonishment, "How can you come up with so much food? And all of it is fine grain?"
He originally thought that twenty or thirty kilograms of coarse grains would be enough.
In fact, even if it was only one kilogram, he would not mind it and would accept it happily.
You know, it might even cost a life.
Sun Xiu nodded and said with a smile, "Uncle, don't worry, my family can provide this food."
At this time, Uncle Sun also said, "Uncle, my sister's second son works in the supply and marketing cooperative's motorcade and knows a lot of people. He got this grain from someone."
After receiving a positive answer, Captain Sun said excitedly, "Well, you are indeed an honored guest, and an honored guest of our Sun family."
This is what I said sincerely, without any intention of sarcasm.
Sun Xiu continued, "Uncle, there is one more thing I need you to agree to."
Captain Sun looked very proud and said with a big wave of his hand, "Don't mention just one thing, even ten will do."
Li Xu, who was standing by, even thought that if his family had an enemy now, he would ask Captain Sun to help solve the problem.
Then he can probably gather people to do this now...
"One thing is enough, uncle. We estimate that this is the only amount of food we can give out, so I hope you can help keep the fact that we donated food a secret."
Captain Sun fell silent after hearing this, and after a moment he said, "Xiu'er, are you worried about getting into trouble?"
Sun Xiu hummed, then smiled bitterly and said, "You know, if outsiders knew about this, how could our family live happily in the future?"
Captain Sun thought for a moment, "You've done something so big, you can't keep it from them, right? How about this? I'll only tell the heads of each branch of the Sun family about this. I can also guarantee that this won't get out. If anyone dares to spread it, I'll use family rules and expel them from the family tree."
When he spoke the latter part, a deep chill was revealed in his words.
