"That mother..."
"Hey, Xiao Guang, you know what kind of person our mother is, so I won't hide anything from you."
Old Man Chi calmly recounted the events of the past few years.
Of course, in Old Man Chi's words, although Zhou was bad, she did not do as many bad things as Aunt Chi had imagined!
However, what Old Man Chi said was already astonishing.
"...Later, they ran away, and I don't know exactly where they went...Xiao Guang, it's not that your older brother is unfilial to your mother, it's just that..."
Old Man Chi was heartbroken and choked up several times.
He worried that his brothers would blame him for not taking good care of their mother.
To everyone's surprise, Chi Yongguang was very understanding: "Brother, you did the right thing! Not all parents in this world are fit to be parents."
"Xiao Guang..."
"Big brother is surprised that I would say this, right? Actually, something happened before I left home that I didn't tell you..."
When Zhou wanted to remarry, Chi Yongguang was already seventeen years old.
A young man of marriageable age should be settling down.
But his father was gone, his mother remarried, and his older brother had several children; how could he possibly take care of him?
However, Old Man Chi still took good care of his brothers, saying that he would give the old house left by their father to his third brother!
Chi Yongguang even persuaded his second brother, even though he would have to give him money later.
But at least we have a house now, so we can get married, right?
But when Chi Yongguang went to talk to Zhou, Zhou not only refused to give him the house, but also scolded him for being heartless!
What will she do if the house is divided up?
How and how.
In short, not only did they not provide a house, they also demanded that Chi Yongguang help pay for Zhou's stepson to get married!
The mother and son had a big argument and parted on bad terms.
Then Chi Yongguang left his hometown and went out to make a name for himself.
"...But making a living isn't that easy. I made money at first, but then I got cheated, got into a lawsuit, and spent two years in jail..."
I looked like a beggar when I came out! That's when I met Ruolan!
As Chi Yongguang finished speaking, he turned his head to look at his wife, his eyes shining, and without any hesitation, he reached out and firmly grasped her hand!
Zhang Ruolan's cheeks flushed slightly.
"Ruolan fell for me, a penniless young man! And so, we got married. Brother, don't worry about me marrying into the family..."
"Hey, hey, hey! I didn't say anything! It's your business if you're willing to marry into the family, even if I'm your own brother, it's none of my business."
Upon hearing this, Old Man Chi quickly interrupted.
He didn't mean to disagree with what he said.
He finally understood.
When Erchuan wanted to marry Shi Hongxing, he couldn't stop him no matter what.
If you can't even manage your son, how can you manage your younger brother?
Never mind!
Nobody cares anymore!
As long as it's not illegal, let them do what they want.
"Ahem," Chi Yongguang had originally intended to retreat as a way to advance, but he didn't expect his elder brother to actually not mind.
Old Man Chi clicked his tongue and said, "So what if you're marrying into the Zhang family? I don't think the Zhang family looks down on you. The children are all doing quite well."
So what if the children don't have the surname Chi? But when you die, will these children stop wearing mourning clothes or burning incense for you just because they don't have the surname Chi?
As for continuing the family line, I have five sons and six grandsons! That's more than enough!
"Brother and sister-in-law, thank you for understanding Ah Guang."
Zhang Ruolan stood up and bowed deeply in gratitude.
She actually knew all of this.
The reason why A-Guang hasn't gone home is not only because he resents his mother-in-law, but also because of his father's obstruction.
Another reason is that A-Guang feels that as a son-in-law who has married into the family, he will be disliked by his family when he goes back home.
She was powerless to resolve this inner conflict!
Only the Chi family can do this!
"Oh dear, sister-in-law, what are you doing? Your older brother and I have worried a lot about the child, only to realize later that we can't control him."
If he can't even control his son, his younger brother is even less of a problem.
"Who says otherwise? What's that? Xiao Guang, let me tell you, my third son found me a blonde, blue-eyed daughter-in-law. My goodness, your sister-in-law and I were so worried about her that we couldn't eat for a while."
Old Man Chi exposed his family's dirty laundry to comfort his younger brother.
Upon hearing this, the Zhang family members were very curious.
Zhang Mingyuan asked curiously, "What do people with blond hair and blue eyes look like?"
"We don't have anyone like that in our Great Sheng."
Aunt Chi thought for a moment, but couldn't remember: "It seems to be some country? They came from the far west."
I heard that girl is some kind of princess from their country... something like a princess from our Great Sheng!
"My God, you two are such kind and tolerant people, and you really care about the children."
Zhang Ruolan thought that if she had a daughter-in-law like that, she would be restless and uneasy!
Aunt Chi waved her hand: "Sigh, there's nothing we can do about it."
"Alright, let's eat. Brother and sister-in-law, I'd like to propose a toast to you..."
The atmosphere at the dinner table was fairly harmonious.
Adults won't ask too many questions, but they can't resist little kids.
After five-year-old Zhang Youhuai finished eating, he jumped off the stool and went to Wulang's side, asking in a low voice:
"Fifth Brother, does your family own a restaurant?"
"Yes, my aunt runs a restaurant. My father runs a kiosk."
Although Goro was young, he knew that the restaurant did not belong to his family!
So I made a small correction.
"Kitchenware Shop? Is that the shop that sells ice chests and fans?"
Zhang Youhuai opened her little mouth wide: "Wow, Fifth Brother, your family is so amazing!"
Qiqiao is much more famous than Yipinxiang.
Because of the Meng family, Qiqiao stores can now be found all over Dasheng, with several Qiqiao stores in every city.
