Chapter 172 You are harming your own son
But Qin Dazhi couldn't say anything.
As a father and an elder, if he also throws a tantrum like his wife, he will be the one to be embarrassed.
He Guixiang said angrily, "Don't you stand there and talk like that? What's wrong with us country people? Country people don't have food to eat. I have three sons and two daughters at home, and they all need food. This year there was a snowstorm, and the relief grain cannot be distributed at all.
The eldest brother doesn't care about the family. If he could help the family, why would we come to him? Ask him if he has ever gone home since he started working in the county?"
Pointing at Qin Ming unhappily.
Section Chief Wei spoke. After hearing what Jiang Xiaoxiao had just said, he immediately understood what was going on.
To put it bluntly, these parents are unreasonable.
Naturally, he had to stand up for Qin Ming.
"Grandpa and aunt, please get up quickly and go into the house to talk about this. You are really wronging Qin Ming. Others may not know, but how could I not know? Qin Ming has only been working in our factory for half a year. Moreover, he did not work for three months. I heard that he took his wife back to her parents' home during those three months.
How old is this child? Qin Ming has only been working here for three months. When they came back with the child, we never saw you two come to see your granddaughter. I'm afraid you haven't even seen what your granddaughter looks like.
He comes to work, how can he have time to go back?"
When others heard this, they thought it made sense. They worked at the power plant and everyone had their own job.
Although I can have one day off a month, on that day, with such a young child at home and my wife, how can I not be busy?
Besides, who wouldn’t understand what he said? The man’s wife had just given birth to a child.
The old woman and the old man didn't even come to take a look.
People interact with each other. You, the grandmothers and grandfathers, have never come to see your granddaughter.
I just wanted my son and daughter-in-law to take the child back to see them.
Is this appropriate?
It's not about treating others with kindness. These parents are not kind, but they still ask their son and daughter-in-law to be filial to them. This is too unreasonable.
Besides, wasn’t that a snowstorm?
What should we do if the road is blocked by snowstorm?
Who doesn’t have relatives in the countryside? The heavy snow has blocked the roads in this village, and it’s not easy for anyone to go out.
It's not convenient to walk in this county town, let alone the roads in the village.
What’s going on?
He Guixiang wanted to say something, but Qin Dazhi slapped her in the face.
"Why don't you hurry into the house? Why are you embarrassing yourself here? You insisted that there were four or five hundred kilograms of grain in Qin Ming's room. Which eye of yours saw it? I told you to talk nonsense. This is your own son. How could you harm your own son like this? How could I not know who Qin Ming is?
The eldest brother would not eat a pound of food for himself, and would give half a pound to his parents. How could he hide four or five hundred pounds of food in his room and not be willing to give a little to his parents? Is that your own son? How can you harm your son like this? If you don't come in, I will beat you to death."
Qin Dazhi was really ruthless. He slapped He Guixiang's face so hard that it was swollen.
Jiang Xiaoxiao shook her head speechlessly. Qin Dazhi liked to be clever. He was a cadre, and look at what he said.
She was protecting her son at every turn, but that meaning was evident in her words.
Qin Ming has four or five hundred kilograms of food in his house, but he doesn't give it to his parents. What does this mean?
The ordinary people around here may not be so smart, and they will probably be outraged when they hear this.
Who is He Guixiang? Although she was stunned by her man, when she heard these words, she immediately understood what her man wanted to do.
This is an ironclad handle.
She had just seen the food in the eldest brother's room, otherwise why would she be making a fuss here? Isn't it because the eldest brother has so much food hidden in his own room and doesn't give it to his parents?
If this gets out, no matter how much pension Qin Ming gives to his parents, there is a shortage of food now, and even if he has money, he cannot buy food.
They have so much food hidden in their house, but their parents are starving. If this matter is made public, it would be unreasonable. How can everyone not stand on the side of the couple!
More importantly, what is worrying is not the scarcity of food but the inequality of distribution. When other people see that Qin Ming has so much food and every household is hungry, they will immediately become jealous.
"It's not that I don't protect our eldest son. Our family is so hungry that we can't even have porridge for meals. We were originally here to see our granddaughter, but I just happened to see so much food in Qin Ming's living room.
At least 400-500 kilograms. I just had this idea in my mind, thinking that if my son could spare 100 kilograms, at least everyone in the family would have enough to eat. We can hold on until the autumn harvest.
Who am I doing this for? It's for the whole family. These are Qin Ming's brothers and sisters. Are they really going to starve to death? Otherwise, how could I harm my own son like this?
No matter what, the eldest son was born after ten months of pregnancy. He is my own son. I raised him with my own hands. Who would benefit from me ruining his reputation? There is no other way. I am really hungry.
I was just thinking about the couple and their child, with so much food and the government supplying them every month, they could get by even if they had to tighten their belts, but our family couldn’t!
We rural people don’t have autumn harvest in our fields. Even if you ask me to find a way to make food, I don’t have that ability. If I had the ability of a god in heaven and could make food in an instant, I promise I would not come to harm the eldest brother and his wife. "
He Guixiang immediately changed her route and now turned into a pitiful mother, covering her face and crying.
The eyes of the people around them changed. After all, although they had just taken out 1,000 yuan for pension, and although they were in the right in this matter, in this era, there was no food supply for the rural people, and you could not buy food even if you had money.
The grain station requires a certificate for the grain, not only the certificate, but also grain coupons and money. Rural people have no way to get grain coupons, and what people say is true.
If Qin Ming really had four or five hundred kilograms of food in his house, but he ignored his younger brothers and sisters and parents who were starving to death, this would be unacceptable. Even if there was a huge grudge between them, he could not use such a thing to threaten his parents at this critical juncture.
This is an essential question.
Qin Ming wanted to explain himself, but he couldn't say that there were indeed more than 400 kilograms of grain in his house. This grain was part of what Jiang Xiaoxiao had brought to them, and they had saved some of it.
Could he say that he would take some of the food away for Jiang Xiaoxiao?
If he says it, people around him won't understand. They will think that he doesn't care about his own relatives but cares about his aunt first. What kind of thing is that?
This is the elbow turning outward.
Who can be greater than one’s own parents?
Moreover, if he said this, how would Jiang Xiaoxiao live her life in the future? I'm afraid the spit from the people around her would be enough to drown her sister-in-law.
Qin Ming really wanted to hit his head against his death.
