Chapter 384 Weird!
The Tong family.
Tong Hongwen has been staying at home since he was released from prison. He is looked down upon by others
when he goes out. After all, he was imprisoned for robbery. Such a person is a loser in society, and people in the village will never like him. Wu Ping and Tong Jianjun urged him to find a job many times. At first, Tong Hongwen pretended not to hear them because he was annoyed. Later, different people came to urge him to go to work every day. Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore and went out to find a job.
But because of his background of being in prison, no unit dared to hire such a person.
In this way, he stayed at home for half a year...
His family really couldn't do anything about him. How could this be considered a son? He
was basically a patriarch!
The Tong family was already living in poverty, and Tong Hongwen's return was even worse.
During this period, the family was short of food and sometimes had to borrow from the villagers. But who had enough food these days? One family borrowed half a bowl of food, but no one was willing to lend the second time...
The New Year was coming soon, and everyone was looking forward to the year-end food distribution!
But everyone knew that there couldn't be much food, after all, there was Tong Hongwen and Tong Zhaodi at home, neither of whom worked...
At noon that day, when everyone was eating coarse flour steamed bread at home, Li Aihua, the big mouth from Yangliu Village, came.
Seeing them choking on coarse flour steamed buns with boiled water, Li Aihua shook her head repeatedly: "Oh... Aiqin, look at your house..."
Wang Aiqin looked at the pickled vegetables on the table, looked at the steamed bun in her hand and could only shake her head: "Oh... what should I do, there are two freeloaders at home! Why are you here at this time? Have you eaten?"
Li Aihua actually hadn't eaten yet, but looking at the... food on their table...
she thought it was better to forget it...
Li Aihua: "Well, I ate. I came to see yours. I didn't expect your Tong family to live like this now. If you had known that, you should have hugged Tong Xiayue's legs, then you would have gotten some benefits now!"
Hearing her suddenly mention Tong Xiayue, Wang Aiqin looked up at her: "What's the matter? Why did you suddenly mention that damn girl?"
Li Aihua smiled and said: "Don't you know? The Ji family came back two days ago. There are four grandchildren in the family, and they are having a birthday party! Everyone in the village is invited. You didn't see the scene! It was grand enough!"
She raised her thumb while speaking, describing the scene at that time as shocking!
The Tong family members who were chewing steamed buns suddenly found it hard to swallow...
Tong Hongwen's eyes were red: "Haha, I really didn't expect this girl to live so well!"
Li Aihua laughed and said, "That's right! The braised pork on the table is all served in a basin! And the pig's trotter soup, oh my, I haven't seen such a generous family, so fat! There is a lot of oil on the soup! The pig's trotters are all meat! So delicious!"
The Tong family swallowed their saliva when they heard her words...
How long have they not eaten meat? How can they organize such a good banquet?
Wang Aiqin listened to Li Aihua's words and wondered, "Why are there only four children?"
They have been busy solving the problem of food and fullness for more than a year, and have no time to care about anything about Tong Xiayue, so naturally they don't know anything.
Li Aihua slapped her thigh excitedly: "Hey! You don't know yet! Xia Yue gave birth to triplets! Two boys and a girl! Cuihua also gave birth to a boy! How lucky are the Ji family that they even have triplets!"
Tong Zhaodi said in disbelief: "What? Triplets!?"
Li Aihua nodded, looked at Tong Zhaodi with disdain and said: "That's right, some people find it difficult to even have one, but she got three at once, which solves the problem!"
Tong Zhaodi was immersed in the news that Tong Xiayue had given birth to triplets, and she didn't hear a word Li Aihua said.
Wu Ping slapped Wu Jianjun on the back and said, "Tell me what kind of ungrateful person your Tong family has raised! We've raised him for so many years, but he's really useless! He didn't even bother to invite us to the banquet? He invited the whole village! Is he closer to her than we are to him?!"
Tong Jianjun was also very angry at this moment. This girl really wanted to cut off ties with the Tong family!
Tong Hongwen was munching on a steamed bun fiercely while making some calculations in his mind...
Wang Aiqun looked at Li Aihua: "Aihua, I heard you say that Xia Yue's family is doing well now?"
Li Aihua sneered: "How can they be well? They are doing quite well! I don't know how they became rich after moving to Beijing. It may be because Xia Yue's father is capable. After all, he is a big leader! It seems that Ji Jiashu has also been promoted. They must have no worries about spending at home."
When Tong Zhaodi heard these words, she was so envious that she slammed the steamed bun in her hand on the table: "This is really a case of comparing yourself to someone else! How am I worse than that dead girl! Why am I not as lucky as her?!"
Wang Aiqun couldn't believe what Tong Zhaodi said. Doesn't this person have any self-awareness?
Even if he didn't like Tong Xiayue, her looks were one of the best in the village!
Tong Zhaodi's broad shoulders...
Tong Hongwen didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard what Tong Zhaodi said, and laughed, "You? Don't you ever look in the mirror?"
Tong Zhaodi was instantly enraged, and she stood up and pointed at Tong Hongwen's nose and cursed, "What qualifications do you have to say that about me! You labor reform prisoner!"
After Tong Hongwen was released from prison, he was treated coldly by everyone because he had been in prison. Now he couldn't stand his own elder sister saying that!
He stood up and overturned the table in front of him: "What's wrong? What's wrong with being a labor reform prisoner? Didn't I get out? That means the country recognizes me! If you are not satisfied, go and ask the country for justice! You are a worthless person! How dare you stay in your parents' house for so long after your divorce?!"
The two quarreled more and more fiercely, and Wang Aiqin felt relieved. She had disliked the two of them for a long time, but she was their sister-in-law, so she couldn't say too much...
Now the two of them quarreled among themselves, in one word: cool!
Li Aihua was also shocked to see this scene. This family is really...
weird!
The farce ended with the two of them fighting and getting bruised and swollen!
Tong Jianjun's words were somewhat effective, but in the end he had to slap both of them in the face to stop the fight...
Tong Zhaodi squatted on the ground, picked up the steamed bun that had fallen on the ground, brushed off the ashes with her hands and continued to eat it: "Don't waste such a good steamed bun!"
Wu Ping looked at the chaos at home and felt that she couldn't go on like this. She walked over to Tong Hongwen and said, "Hongwen, go find Xia Yue and say something nice to her. See if you can get her to find you a job?"
Tong Hongwen sneered, "Do you think she will help you when we treat her like that?"
Wu Ping sighed, "Isn't there anything we can do? We can't find anyone else to help. You can go to the mountains and get some game for her. She won't pay us, but she'll help you find you a job, right?"
