Chapter 209 What to Eat
"Comrade An, your own daughter and son are being bullied by the entire Kang family, and you just sit there and hug your old son to comfort him? Oh, by the time he grows up, you might have been buried in the earth, and in the end, won't we, your brother and sister, still have to take care of you in your old age and see you to the end of your life!" An Zhixia shouted loudly.
Father An had just coaxed his crying child to sleep, put him down, and walked out with a grim look on his face. Seeing that his house was being watched by half of the alley's neighbors, he suppressed his anger, forced a smile and said to everyone, "I'm sorry, there was a big commotion at home, and it disturbed the neighbors. It's noon and time to cook, everyone should go home and give me, Old An, some face."
The male owner had already opened his mouth to chase people away, and the onlookers were too embarrassed to continue blocking the yard, so they could only walk away, looking back every few steps. However, the neighbors in the yard could still continue to watch the fun through the cracks in the windows, or frequently walk in and out of the kitchen while cooking.
"Lao Kang, take the three of them to the infirmary. They just had a cut and bled a bit, but it shouldn't be a big problem. Go early and come back early. Remember to buy some meat and eggs and steamed buns." As he said that, An's father took out a big unity and three bills from his pocket and handed them over. After they left, he looked at the An brothers and sisters and a strange female comrade, sighed and said, "Now that you're here, why don't you come in and talk? Why are you standing outside for people to see you?"
As he said this, he walked into the house with his hands behind his back. The Kang family members stopped making any noise and squeezed in, each finding a seat to sit down.
The An family's house was originally clean and bright, but with so many children scribbling on it and too many people, it became particularly cramped and dirty, like a slum.
"Guowen, Guowu, give the stool to your sister and sister-in-law," Father An said to the twins with a cold face, holding a cigarette in his hand but not lighting it.
Without their mother to rely on, the two children could only pout and give up the stool that was covered with who knows how much dirt, glaring at An Zhixia and the other two.
Originally, An Zhixia didn't want to sit down, but seeing the naughty look of the child, she pulled her sister-in-law to sit down, gave her brother and sister-in-law a provocative look, and took out three chocolate candies from her pocket. She gave one to each of her brother and sister-in-law, peeled off the candy wrappers, stuffed them into her mouths, and chewed them lightly with her cheeks puffed out.
"What are you eating!" Kang Jia Sanbao stared in his grandmother's arms and couldn't help asking.
"The chocolate candy is imported from abroad and is super delicious, a hundred times more delicious than the White Rabbit milk candy!" An Sansui replied.
"How many do you have left? Give them all to me, or I'll have my dad and my brother beat you out!"
"Oh, I have a sack, but I won't give it to you! Who are you to me? You are so arrogant in my house! Can't you see this is my brother? Your father and your brother were kicked and bleeding by my brother!" She snorted with bared teeth.
Sanbao shivered and buried his head in his grandmother's arms, "Grandma, I want to eat, I want to eat chocolate..."
"We are your brothers, can we eat?" An Guowen asked in a low voice, "We even gave you our stool to sit on."
"Well, just three, I've finished them," An Zhixia stuck out her tongue.
All of a sudden, the spoiled kids in the room started crying because of greed. Father An felt a pain in his forehead and said angrily, "Shut up! It's just a few candies. Why are you so greedy? Zhixia, you too, are about to get married, why are you still making trouble with the kids?"
The children were frightened and kept silent, but they couldn't help staring at the three people's mouths. The air was sweet and slightly bitter, which was really tempting.
"Have you received the betrothal gift?" An Zhixia asked with a raised eyebrow.
Father An's face froze. Instead of answering, he said, "Zhu Zi has thick eyebrows and big eyes. He is tall and strong. He is honest and kind. Our two families know each other well. You can still live at home after you get married. You don't have to worry about being bullied..."
"Are you really our biological father?" An Zhiqiu suddenly asked in a cold voice: "Look at your life now. You only have three small houses, and the Kang family has taken up so much of them? If someone stands on your head and poops, you still have to drag us brothers and sisters over to catch it?
If you are not disgusted, we all feel disgusted for you!
Now is a new society, leaders are advocating freedom of marriage, you'd better not interfere in Xia Xia's marriage, otherwise in the end we won't care that you are our biological father, and will directly report to the leaders and let people teach you a lesson."
"You guys," Father An was so angry that he slammed the table and stood up, "Anyway, I took the three hundred yuan, and your little brother Guo Ping got jaundice, and he spent all the money. If Zhixia doesn't want to get married, she can pay it back herself."
"Three hundred yuan? So, father, did you sell me for three hundred yuan? However, the marriage contract that the Kang family got stated that it was for three thousand yuan," An Zhixia said with a sneer.
Father An was stunned and looked at Mrs. Kang in a daze: "Impossible, I clearly wrote three hundred!"
Old Mrs. Kang stiffened her neck and hummed, "It's three hundred, isn't there interest? Add to that the three thousand yuan that the brother and sister stole from Xiaohua, and I'm going to be short of money!"
"Old lady, you need evidence when you speak. What do you mean by three thousand yuan? We have only seen my mother's pension, and never seen Aunt Kang's money. Besides, we eat coarse food every day, how can she have three thousand yuan? Who in the neighborhood would believe it? Didn't Qi Guoqiang, Qi Lijuan and the two twins have such strong physiques that they were raised without my knowledge?" An Zhixia asked coldly. "Don't think that you can deduct the three thousand yuan from my brother and sister just by making such a fake contract. Besides, it was Comrade An who paid to sign the contract with you, not us."
"If you don't want to stay in Kyoto and continue to farm in the countryside, then don't recognize me!" Mrs. Kang was unwilling to let the duck fly away, so she said shamelessly: "Otherwise, either pay back the money or marry my son!"
Fang Hongye said coldly: "It's still unclear who will go back to the countryside to farm first. Now only Kang Da has a job in the Kang family. The others are all unemployed or doing some manual work at home, right? Your household registration is in the countryside, and you can't stay in the city for a long time without reason.
If someone reports it, it will be reported! Even if the person in charge of this area has been bribed by you, other places will also accept such cases. "
"We have a letter of proof," Old Lady Kang hummed, raising her chin, "We live in the An family openly and honestly, and we haven't bribed anyone. Just go and report it!"
An Zhixia lowered her eyelids, "Old lady, the letter of proof is not omnipotent. It has a time limit and content. You have lived in the An family for a year. I want to know what your letter of proof looks like? You can actually go beyond the organization's regulations and bring a large family as permanent residents!"
Mrs. Kang and Mrs. Kang couldn't help but look at each other, feeling a little uneasy. "Anyway, every time the neighborhood committee comes to inspect, our family complies with the regulations."
