While Shen Chuning and his wife were talking here, over in the Zhou family's old courtyard, Zhou Baoguo was lying on the bed, tossing and turning like a pancake, sighing.
Lin Shulan finally couldn't stand it anymore and suddenly elbowed the old man, "Enough! Where are you making the pancakes? Stop flipping them. Are you going to let me sleep?!"
"well!"
Zhou Baoguo sighed heavily again, "Old lady, when did the second son become like this?"
Lin Shulan rolled her eyes and said, "Don't you know what kind of character your own son is?
Instead of asking him when he became like this, you should ask him when he was not like this? ”
"His mind is like a sieve with a spirit. He has always felt that we favor the eldest and the third child, and he, the second child, is the one who suffers the most because he is stuck in the middle.
Since he was young, he has been keeping an eye on how much we have in our hands, calculating in his mind how much we gave to the eldest and the third brother, and how much we gave to him, for fear that we gave him too little.
If the third brother hadn't become successful, with the second brother's temper, there would be trouble in our family! ”
"well!"
After listening to what the old woman said, Zhou Baoguo sighed heavily again.
Lin Shulan was a little speechless, "Okay, stop sighing, it's just a small matter.
I think it's a good thing that the second son made a fuss and talked things out.
Otherwise the second child will feel that everyone in the family belongs to him all day long. ”
"But then again, although the two guys from the Red Army and the People's Army are not good at studying, they are better than their father. They know what's going on and are clear-headed.
The second brother's family has two little ones, so it's not all doomed. ”
Zhou Baoguo was quite satisfied with the performance of his two eldest grandsons today. After hearing what his old wife said, he felt much more relieved and finally stopped sighing.
But now that the burden on his heart was gone, his hands became a little restless.
"Wife, are you going to leave with the third brother and the others the day after tomorrow?"
Lin Shulan: …
He is already old, but he still has a wife and he doesn't feel bored at all.
She slapped the old man's hand that was touching her belly away, "Old man, aren't you talking nonsense? I'm not going with the third brother and the others. Are you going with the third brother and the others to take care of the grandchildren?"
Zhou Baoguo was not angry after being beaten. Instead, he smiled and hugged his wife in his arms, "Wife, I can't bear to leave you. Come, give me a kiss."
Lin Shulan almost wanted to slap the old man against the wall.
He is so dishonest. He is still so dishonest even at his old age.
At this time, the atmosphere in the Zhou family's big house was also very harmonious.
Sun Fengjiao still feels frightened when she recalls the scene where her father-in-law threw his pipe at the second son.
"Boss Zhou, luckily you were smart and didn't get involved with the second brother. Otherwise, we would be like the second brother today. Not only would we not get any benefits, but we would also have to suffer at the hands of our parents.
If you offend the third brother's family, don't expect him to help you with your children's affairs in the future. ”
This was the first time that his wife praised him, and Zhou Jiakang felt very happy hearing it.
"That's right, I'm so smart, how could I follow the second brother to do such a stupid thing?
The third brother has always had his own ideas since he was young, and the second brother wants to use today's situation to force the third brother to agree to his plan. But can he force the third brother? ”
Sun Fengjiao rarely gave her man a thumbs up.
The atmosphere in the second branch of the Zhou family is completely different from that in the first branch.
Zhou Jun sat dejectedly in the chair without saying a word.
Xia Yue'e didn't dare to provoke him. She stayed at home with her three children very cautiously, not even daring to breathe.
After Xia Yue'e asked the three children to simply wash up, she urged them to go to bed.
She was afraid that Zhou Laoer would jump up again and beat the child.
After the children went to sleep, Xia Yue'e breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhou Laoer was not an unreasonable person. The children were already asleep, so it was impossible for him to catch them and beat them.
She went to pour Zhou Laoer a glass of warm water and said, "Come, drink some water. You will feel uncomfortable if you drink so much alcohol in one breath."
Zhou Laoer took the enamel pot from his wife's hand and drank the water slowly and obediently.
Xia Yue'e brought Zhou Laoer some foot-washing water and said, "Come, soak your feet again."
Zhou Laoer soaks his feet obediently.
Xia Yue'e sat down beside him, looking at the big bump on his head caused by his father-in-law hitting him with his pipe, and sighed, "Does it still hurt? I'll get you some medicinal wine to rub it on."
Just as she turned to leave, Zhou Laoer grabbed her hand and said, "Yu'e, I'm fine. Sit down. Do you think I was really wrong today?"
Xia Yue'e sat down next to him.
"Zhou Lao Er, if you're asking me, from my perspective, you forced your brother to do something just to make life better for me and the child, so you're definitely right.
But if you stand in the perspective of the parents and the third child, think about what you would think if you were the third child? ”
Xia Yue'e spoke to Zhou Laoer earnestly.
In fact, she always felt that she was quite happy. Although her three sons were a little naughty and not good at studying, they were sensible in other aspects and loved her as a mother, helping with the housework.
Although men may be arbitrary at times, it is all for the sake of their sons and their small families.
Men still have jobs and wages.
Although the mother-in-law is a little fierce, she never picks on her daughters-in-law for no reason. Moreover, the mother-in-law has not been at home in the past few years, so she lives an even more carefree life.
With such a good life, what else could she be dissatisfied with?
When she came to her senses, she found that Zhou Laoer had red eyes and was wiping away tears.
"Yue'e, I was really wrong today.
Mom and Dad are right. The Third Brother's family has helped us a lot over the years, but I'm still not satisfied and want to force the Third Brother...
I'm such a bastard. Do you think the third brother will still recognize me as his second brother in the future? ”
Zhou Laoer looked at Xia Yue'e hesitantly and asked.
Xia Yue'e has been married to a man for more than ten years, but this is the first time she has seen this side of him.
In the past, men made decisions on all matters big and small in the family, and they had the final say.
She is not a person who likes to worry about things. She thinks it is good this way. The man has arranged everything for her and she just needs to do it without having to worry about anything.
But now the man looked confused and helpless in front of her, and she found that she could also be relied on by the man, and this feeling seemed quite good.
She held the man's hand and said, "The Third Brother is definitely angry about what happened today, but he won't say that he will no longer recognize you as his second brother.
Just don’t rely on the third brother for everything in the future. Just treat his family as relatives.
You don't have to worry that after what happened today, the third brother will not help our three armies. After all, Hongjun and his nephews are their nephews. The third brother and his wife are good people. When Hongjun and his nephews really need help from their uncle, even if the third brother does not consider your face, he will help them for the sake of his parents. ”
After listening to his wife's words, Zhou Laoer was silent for a while, then nodded, "Well, I understand."
