Lin Wanru still called from time to time, and the mother and daughter could only express their longing for each other over the phone.
Fortunately, summer vacation is getting closer, and Lin Wanru has already started preparing things for the children to take with them.
Just for summer clothes, each person bought three sets, and there were also many delicious and fun things.
She is looking forward to her first summer vacation with her daughter and grandchildren.
In the Li family, because Fu Qiumei had lost one leg and could not work in the fields, she was the bossy one at home at first and no one dared to disobey her.
But gradually, the eldest and third son's wives developed a rebellious mentality towards their mother-in-law.
Why do they work like slaves at home every day, and she, an old lady without legs, orders them around every day? Now they are the ones working to support her.
As a result, Fu Qiumei gradually lost her say at home. Not only did her daughters-in-law treat her coldly, but even her granddaughters were not as obedient to her as before, and some even went against her.
I wanted to hit them, but I couldn't because of my inconvenient legs and feet.
This made her so angry that she complained to her sons. However, her sons told her to stop looking for trouble all day long and stop disturbing the whole family.
In the past, all she had to do was say a word and her sons would obey her. But now, even if she cried and screamed, her sons couldn’t even look at her.
She even made such a fuss that they simply didn't give her food. She called it outrageous, but in return she just went hungry for one more meal.
From then on, she didn't dare to act like a demon anymore, otherwise she would starve.
But she was scolded by her daughter-in-law and granddaughter every day, which almost made her depressed.
Even though she was leaning on a crutch and complained about her daughter-in-law and granddaughter's unfilial behavior in front of the villagers, she was greeted with the words "it served her right", which made her realize that she could no longer be the master of this family.
Even her beloved Xiaobao is not as close to her as before.
People call her the one-legged grandma or the immortal old lady every day.
She knew that Xiaobao had learned this, but she was still so angry that she spat out a mouthful of blood.
As for Li Dacheng, he has lost his left hand now, although he can still complete his daily life independently.
But working in the fields is still a bit lacking. I work myself to death outside every day, and when I come home I am criticized in a veiled way by my sister-in-law and brothers-in-law for not doing enough work.
If it had happened in the past, he would have definitely cursed back, but now he didn't have the courage to curse back. Otherwise, if he angered them and they demanded a separation, what hope would he have for the rest of his life?
Nowadays, the affairs of Old Li's family have become a hot topic in the village.
Time always passes quickly. In the blink of an eye, the children have taken their final exams and the results are out.
Everyone did well in the exams as usual, and when they went to school to get their report cards, they brought back a certificate for being a three-good student.
The happiest person was Qin Feng. Not only did she score 100 points on her first-grade exam.
Even on the second grade test, I got good scores of 98 and 99.
The school has approved her idea of skipping a grade, and she will report directly to the third grade when school starts in September.
When the Qin family learned the news, they were sincerely happy for her.
On that day, Grandma Qin prepared a large table of delicious meals to reward the children for their learning achievements that semester.
"Grandma, we are going to grandma's house in a few days. You and grandpa should come with us!" Qin Han said while gnawing on a chicken leg.
When Granny Qin heard this, she immediately put down her chopsticks and said, "Han'er, you should go by yourselves. The harvest is almost ready at home, so how can grandma have time to go out and play?"
"Mom, the two of us brothers are enough to take care of the housework. You and Dad have worked hard for most of your lives. It's time for you to enjoy your life." Qin Jiandang followed.
Qin Jianguo and his two daughters-in-law also agreed that the two old people should go to Shanghai for fun.
"Mom, just come with us. I bought a house in Shanghai just to make it convenient for you to live there."
After hearing what her daughter-in-law said, Mrs. Qin was surprised: "Yuxin, why did you buy a house in Shanghai? Houses in Shanghai must be expensive, right? Did your parents pay for it?"
The Qin family still doesn't know about the gold, and Jiang Yuxin couldn't explain where she got the money to buy the house, so she nodded and said that it was her parents who bought it.
After that, she looked at her elder and second sisters-in-law and said, “Two sisters-in-law, you will have to work hard on the farm work at home during the summer vacation.
When the winter vacation comes and there is nothing to do at home, I will take you to Shanghai to play."
"There's no need to worry about these things as a family. This is what we should do. You and your parents can go and don't worry about the housework." Zhang Xiumei said nonchalantly.
For her, it was just a matter of doing more work or working less.
However, the other children were very happy when they heard that they could go to Shanghai during the summer vacation.
They have grown up and have never been out of the province or taken a train!
In the end, Old Lady Qin and Old Man Qin agreed to go to the Magic City with Jiang Yuxin and the children.
In the evening, Jiang Yuxin called her parents and told them that her parents-in-law would also go with her.
Jiang Yimin immediately arranged for someone to buy corresponding sleeper tickets for them, otherwise it would have been very uncomfortable to sit on the train for three days and two nights.
Thinking that she was about to go to the Magic City, Old Lady Qin started to get busy again, preparing to bring more delicious food with her.
It’s just that the temperature in summer is too high, and many things are easy to spoil, so there is not much that can be taken with you.
Escorted by the eldest and second oldest brothers, they boarded the bus to the county town.
Er Gouzi still stayed to look after the house, otherwise Qin Han would be worried.
