No good intentions
Little did she know that Hu Yufeng also expressed the same sentiment as her: Alas, why did I raise such a stupid thing.
Listen to what Xiaoqin said, what does it mean to help an outsider instead of helping my second aunt?
Who is an outsider? Is the brother you have called your own brother for more than 20 years an outsider? Are you blind or do you really not understand that they are coming for the factory?
If you take this opportunity to say that you want to join the factory, I will look upon you with a higher regard and praise you for having some brains and ambition, which is better than rushing to be a tool for others.
Really... I'm speechless and really don't want to bother with it.
"Okay, I have a headache, you can go back first if you are fine."
Hu Yufeng said to Hu Yuxiang that she no longer had the patience to listen to them repeating the same old things over and over again. They were so stupid that they couldn't find any new ways to insult people. The more she listened, the more annoying it became.
Hu Yuxiang was very angry. Is this elder sister stubborn? You're old and no one cares about you anymore, and I don't know why you're so arrogant. Let you be arrogant, wait until you use my children, and then see how you beg.
What makes her so confident is that Hu Yufeng only has two children, Wenli is unreliable, Xiaoqin is even worse than Wenli, and the two sons of Mr. Qin have their own parents. As for the sisters, the eldest brother has no children, and the third sister has two children which is equivalent to having nothing. In the end, won’t they still have to rely on their own children?
I feel happy thinking about it. What’s the point of making money? In the end, I don’t know who will benefit from it! When he looked at Hu Yufeng, his eyes were unconsciously filled with pity.
Hu Yufeng: Go away now.
After Hu Yuxiang left, Qin Xiaoqin lost an ally who shared the same hatred for the enemy, and she immediately became somewhat dissatisfied with her mother: "Mom, my second aunt came to see you early in the morning. If she wasn't a real sister, who would be so kind? And you chased her away."
I still have to continue complaining, feeling that something is wrong; "Mom, why are you looking at me like that?"
Although her mother's eyes when she looked at her in the past two years were not as loving as before, they were not as cold as they were today, making her feel chilly in the hot summer.
Hu Yufeng looked at her steadily: "Yes, why did I chase her away? I should have chased you two away as well."
From the moment the daughter came home, she never said a word of concern to her old mother. Why didn't she ask if she felt uncomfortable when they quarreled? She looked gloating at first, but complained and tried to stir up trouble. Even though Hu Yufeng no longer had much hope after learning from previous lessons, she still felt disappointed.
"Mom...you, I...I was looking at you with kindness, you..." Qin Xiaoqin felt a huge sense of grievance in her heart, and she even stuttered when she spoke.
"I can still tell whether you are here to see me out of kindness or to laugh at my joke. Xiaoqin, I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. There are some things I haven't said clearly because I am thinking of the mother-daughter relationship over the years. Although I didn't give birth to you, I have raised you to this age. I dare not say that I am worthy of your brother, but I dare say that I am worthy of you. You shouldn't..."
Hu Yufeng sighed after she finished speaking.
Qin Xiaoqin looked a little uncomfortable. Her secret thoughts were revealed by her mother, and she felt her whole face burning. She was also a little panicked. Although her mother didn't say anything harsh, she could tell something was wrong.
"Oh, Mom, let's not talk about this anymore... I'm not leaving tonight. I haven't lived in the new house yet. They were always here when they came before, so it's just our family now."
As he said that, he went over and hugged Hu Yufeng's arm.
Hu Yufeng glanced at her and pulled her arm back.
"Why do you want to live here? The village is dirty and messy, and it's not as comfortable as the city. Anyway, you didn't like to come back before, so don't come back in the future."
I used to think that her sour and selfish nature was due to my failure to set a good example, so I tolerated and corrected her behavior again and again, but now it seems to be of no use.
You can make as much trouble as you want in the past, but you really shouldn't rub salt into her wounds after she was backstabbed by her son.
Hu Yufeng was in a bad mood, and Qin Xiaoqin was in disbelief. She had coaxed her, but why didn't she give her a way out?
What do you mean don't come back? Although she didn't really want to come back, whether she was willing or not and whether she was allowed to come back were two completely different matters! What are you doing? Are you trying to drive Wenli away and now you want to drive her away?
How dare she not want her? What right does she have to not want her?
Her blood boiled in her heart, and she blurted out, "Mom, why are you venting your anger on me? It was my brother who recognized his biological parents and went back to the plateau. It wasn't me!"
He said with a sneer: "I told you my brother is unreliable, but you didn't listen to my advice and now you are trying to drive me away. Go ahead, I don't think you and my father will even be able to survive!"
These words sounded like a curse. Qin Shengtian, who had just stepped one leg over the threshold, glared with anger and raised his arms, trying to pounce over, but almost tripped over the threshold.
But he cursed angrily: "I let you curse me, I let you curse me..."
Stand firmly and then rush back and forth.
Qin Xiaoqin's mouth always spoke faster than her brain, and she regretted the moment she said that. But before she could feel upset, she saw Qin Shengtian's ferocious expression as if he wanted to eat someone. She was startled and subconsciously hid behind Hu Yufeng.
Hu Yufeng didn't even look at her, but just scolded Qin Shengtian.
"Okay, I was just about to look for you. Go to the field and see if the potatoes are ready to eat. Dig a few and bring them back for Xiao Ning to stir-fry some potatoes for us."
Qin Shengtian stared at his daughter, struggled internally for a few breaths, and finally put down his arms, picked up the frame and walked out.
Hu Yufeng picked up the water in the basin and poured it into the yard, then turned around and went out to see the old lady.
After a while, the sound of two people chatting could be heard in the yard.
Qin Xiaoqin just felt empty inside. Her mother and grandmother were clearly within ten meters, but they seemed like two different worlds. She was like a bystander, watching her father come back and her cousin's wife come. They were talking and laughing, but they all acted as if they didn't see her.
Qin Xiaoqin couldn't stay there any longer, and got on the bus home feeling aggrieved and confused.
After this incident, Hu Yufeng no longer had the interest to stay at home and felt it would be more relaxing to stay in a factory away from her acquaintances.
After waking up from a nap, he gave a few instructions and got in the car to go to the shop.
…
In the shop, Yang Xiu was sweating profusely from the hot oil, but he still tirelessly repeated the frying and scooping processes.
Seeing Hu Yufeng come in, the old employee touched her gently. Yang Xiu turned around without knowing why and looked in the direction of her sight. Her whole body tensed up.
After handing the chopsticks to the employee, Yang Xiu walked up to Hu Yufeng and called out "Mom" softly.
Hu Yufeng nodded and walked towards the operating room first.
Yang Xiu hurriedly followed behind to report.
"Mom, I've got an idea for a new flavor of chicken sauce fried dough twist. I just made it. Would you like to try it?" Yang Xiu picked up two pieces and handed them to his mother nervously.
Hu Yufeng reached out to take it and put it in her mouth, and Yang Xiu's tense shoulders finally relaxed a little.
"Well, that's good. You guys have worked hard."
"It's not hard, it's not hard at all. It's you, mom, who is hard at work." Yang Xiu glanced at her mother-in-law's expression and quickly replied.
Hu Yufeng walked around again, glanced at the time on the wall, and then sat down at the counter.
Apart from the sounds of machines and frying pans, all the workers dared not make a sound and just did their job in silence.
Finally, at 4:10, Qin Yu and Qin Shu came in one after another carrying their schoolbags.
Seeing the grandma in front of the counter, she burst into laughter and rushed over, hugging her arms and acting like a spoiled child.
.
This one said, "Grandma, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you so much."
The one who said, "Grandma, I'm going to stay with you this weekend."
Hu Yufeng's originally expressionless face suddenly broke into a smile, and she agreed to everything the child said. Soon the three of them gathered together and whispered to each other, and laughed from time to time.
Yang Xiu felt somewhat relieved and somewhat guilty. My mother-in-law hasn't smiled since the incident, but fortunately she has two children to entertain her.
At this moment, all the workers had gone home. After Yang Xiu finished the last bit of work, she took off her apron and washed her hands.
Qin Shu came over and said happily, "Mom, grandma said we should go eat beef noodles."
Yang Xiu was startled, looked up to meet her mother-in-law's calm gaze, and agreed without hesitation.
With her children around, Hu Yufeng talks and laughs as usual. Yang Xiu, on the other hand, seemed a little flustered and unnatural, and something was obviously wrong. Qin Yu saw this and was thoughtful.
After dinner, Hu Yufeng took a ride back home from the factory.
As soon as he entered the door, Qin Yu sent Qin Shu into the house to do his homework, then pulled his mother into the shop and said firmly: "Mom, what's going on between you, Dad and Grandma?"
As expected, she was discovered. Yang Xiu looked at her daughter, who was almost as tall as herself, with a complicated expression. After some hesitation, she finally told the whole story.
Now it was Qin Yu's turn to be confused.
Who should she say was wrong?
Mom and dad? The happy things of childhood have become blurred in her memory. What remains deeply in her mind is only her father's tiredness and her mother's tears after the quarrels. This is just what she experienced. She couldn't imagine what a difficult life her father had led before she was born, nor could she easily cover it up for him, because only her father knew the pain of the scars engraved deep in his memory.
Should she say grandma? She remembered the joy that flashed in her grandmother's eyes when she saw them in the afternoon, remembered that when she wanted to eat bird eggs, her grandmother would look through the bunches of bird eggs she brought back with her old eyesight blurry, remembered the money that was secretly stuffed into her pockets every time she went to the factory, remembered the shop and factory at home, and how these good days were all brought about by her grandmother... every single thing was a reflection of the love that this little old lady had for her.
Seeing that his daughter was silent for a long time after listening to him, with a very tangled expression on her face, Yang Xiu understood her feelings, touched her head and said softly: "Yuyu, things between adults cannot be simply explained by who is right and who is wrong. Your father did this to leave us a way out. It is understandable that your grandmother is angry. This is just that their life directions are different, and it does not mean that anyone is wrong. But these things have nothing to do with you and Xiaoshu. We all love you equally, and you should also respect your elders as before."
Qin Yu listened carefully to her mother's words and nodded heavily: "I understand, Mom."
Yang Xiu touched her daughter's curly hair with relief, "Then go do your homework."
Qin Yu walked halfway and turned around to ask, "Mom, where is Dad?"
Yang Xiu was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Dad made grandma angry, so he went out to work to atone for his sin."
