"It's okay. Mom is here to return your second brother's bicycle. I'll be leaving soon. You should study hard with your second sister-in-law these days. When you want to come back in a few days, ask your second brother to take you back."
"Mom, I want to go to Shanghai with my second sister-in-law in a few days. Is that possible?" Taohua said to Aunt Xiumei. Nanqiao had asked Taohua if she wanted to go with him before, but the holiday time was not set, so he didn't tell his family. Today was a holiday, and her mother happened to be there, so Taohua asked directly.
"You... just stay at home. What are you going to do? The ticket is so expensive." It was so unpleasant just now. Aunt Xiumei didn't want Taohua to cause trouble.
"Mom, is it just this once? I want to go. I haven't been to Shanghai yet. Can it be just this once?" Taohua begged.
"Mom, let Taohua go with us. Qiaoqiao is pregnant, and Taohua can also protect Nanqiao on the way."
"That's right, Mom. I can take care of my second sister-in-law and talk to her. I'm very useful."
Nanqiao couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard Taohua selling herself like a sales tool.
Taohua heard Nanqiao laugh, turned her head to look at Nanqiao, and said coquettishly, "Isn't it, second sister-in-law? I'm very useful."
"Yes, yes, Taohua is the second sister-in-law's happy pill"
Aunt Xiumei nodded and said, "Don't cause trouble for my second brother and his wife on Taohua Road."
Huiping looked at the interaction between Taohua and Nanqiao with jealousy. The Taohua in front of her was no longer the skinny and dark girl from the village. Now she was fair and tender, and her clothes were clean and new. If you didn't know, you would think she was Nanqiao's biological sister.
Thinking of Yaya who was left at home, Huiping couldn't help but wonder why Nanqiao didn't like Yaya as much as she liked Taohua. If she did, she would also send food and clothes to Yaya...
"Qiaoqiao, then you guys should cook and eat. It's getting late. Mom and your eldest brother and sister-in-law will go back first," Aunt Xiumei said as she stood up.
Nanqiao nodded and said, "Mom, the road is slippery, be careful on the way."
Sheng Yanchuan also gave a few instructions and sent the person out without mentioning staying for dinner.
After sending the guests off, Sheng Yanchuan went straight to the kitchen to cook. He was still a little bothered by his parents' behavior today.
Over the years, although he brought the most money into the family, his parents still favored his eldest brother because he was the eldest son and because Sheng Yanjun was not as good as him.
But he just couldn't understand why someone who was not as capable as him was favored?
During the meal, Nanqiao noticed that Sheng Yanchuan was in a bad mood, but since Taohua was still there, she didn't feel comfortable asking anything. It was not until after lunch and during the lunch break that Nanqiao curled up in Sheng Yanchuan's arms and asked,
"Brother Chuan... Regarding what happened this morning, do you mind if I say that about your family?"
Sheng Yanchuan rested his chin on Nanqiao's head and shook his head slightly, "There is nothing I can't say, it's all true."
"Then why are you unhappy?"
“I just feel that it’s a bit unfair, as if the weak are more justified and feel that not having any abilities can be a reason for them to be taken care of.”
"Maybe mom thinks you're more capable, and you can live well even if you leave her, but I can't leave you. You've turned me into a useless little thing now." Nanqiao didn't want him to stay in this state, so she started to make him happy after knowing the reason.
"I won't leave Qiaoqiao, I will always stay with Qiaoqiao." Sheng Yanchuan said as he looked at Nanqiao with burning eyes, his sight passed over her pink lips, and the next moment he kissed her hard, not as gentle as usual, but his breath was filled with possessiveness...
On the other side, Aunt Xiumei and the other two had a cold and hard face and didn't say a word since they left. Sheng Yanjun followed behind with his head down. Although Huiping was very hungry at this time, she didn't dare to bring it up. All she could think about was the warmth in Sheng Yanchuan's home and the huge changes in her sister-in-law during this period of time.
"I don't know what they'll eat for lunch. I've come to town to look for them, but they didn't even leave us lunch." Thinking of this, a cold wind blew with a biting chill. Hui Ping shivered in the cold wind, tightened her not-so-warm cotton jacket, and followed closely behind.
The tractor wouldn't wait for them at this time, so the three of them decided to walk back to the village.
Aunt Xiumei and Sheng Yanjun were worried about something, so they didn't think the journey was long. Huiping, who was following behind them, couldn't stand it, but the faces of the two people in front of them were as black as coal. Huiping had no choice but to grit her teeth and persevere, but she was still falling further and further behind.
It was not until they reached the entrance of the village that Aunt Xiumei looked back and saw Huiping walking at the back, quite far away from them.
Seeing her eldest son hanging his head and not even noticing that his wife was lagging behind, Aunt Xiumei's anger instantly exploded, "Your wife is pregnant and walked such a long distance without even saying hello? What on earth have you been thinking about lately!"
"I..." Sheng Yanjun was scolded suddenly and didn't realize what happened. He followed Aunt Xiumei's line of sight and looked behind him. Only then did he realize that Huiping was far away from them.
"Mom, I didn't think anything."
"Then tell me why you said those things this morning. Do you really think that Sheng Yanchuan and his wife owe you something?" Aunt Xiumei did not leave at this time. She stood there waiting for Huiping and asked her the question that she had been unable to figure out along the way.
"no"
"What is that? You've seen Chuanzi's attitude. If you keep insisting on this, there will really be a rift in our family in the future." This was the scene that Aunt Xiumei least wanted to see, but it seemed that she had messed it up.
"Mom, I just think Chuanzi shouldn't give all the good things to Nanqiao. Our family is still living on the dirt. Sheng Yanchuan has the conditions to help improve our family, so why give them to others?"
