Chu Jun seemed to know what Chu Tian was going to ask. He scratched his head and spoke embarrassedly.
"Little brother, I know how unreliable I was before. I always asked you to do what I thought was best. I always thought that as sons, we should be unconditionally filial to our elders."
"However, after going through so many things, Big Brother has come to understand many truths. He knows that although some elders are elders, they are not worthy of being elders. What is the idiom called here?"
Chu Jun looked at Yu Zhen as he spoke, and Yu Zhen quickly compensated, "Your virtue is unworthy of your position."
Chu Jun nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, his virtue is unworthy of his position!"
"Little brother, our mother is unworthy of her position."
After a pause, Chu Jun said seriously, "So, big brother will slowly change his previous habits in the future. He will no longer obey our mother in everything, and he will no longer ask you to be filial to our mother..."
"Brother, you are doing very well. I believe you will definitely get better."
Chu Tian smiled and handed the basket to Yu Zhen. "Brother, sister-in-law, please accept it. I still have mutton at home. Besides, mutton is hot, and Xiujuan can't eat too much."
"Second brother, I also gave it to my eldest uncle and second uncle."
Chu Jun wanted to say something, but Yu Zhen took it and said with a smile, "Thank you, little brother."
Chu Tian smiled and said, "We are all brothers, there is no need to be so polite."
"Brother, sister-in-law, please go back to work. I'm going home."
Chu Tian was about to leave when Yu Zhen stuffed the basket in her hand into Chu Jun's hand and hurriedly called out to Chu Tian, "Little brother, wait a moment..."
Chu Tian paused and looked at Yu Zhen in confusion, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"
"Wait a minute, I'll go get something."
Yu Zhen turned around and went back to the bedroom. She quickly took out a shoulder bag made of several colors and handed it to Chu Tian. She smiled and said, "I heard that you will send Xinxin to elementary school this fall, so I used the few pieces of cloth left over from making clothes for Daya to make a shoulder bag for Xinxin..."
"Thank you, sister-in-law. It looks great. Xinxin will definitely like it when she sees it."
Chu Tian took it and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when looking at the shoulder bag in his hand. To be honest, although it was made of patchwork pieces of cloth, the color combination was quite nice. There was a small red flower embroidered on the front of the bag, and Xinxin's name was embroidered under the small red flower, which showed his thoughtfulness.
Yu Zhen pursed her lips and smiled, "As long as she likes it, I'll make it for her next time I get some cloth."
Chu Tian smiled and nodded, "Okay."
The scrap of cloth is not valuable, but it takes a lot of effort to make it into a shoulder bag, which shows real thoughtfulness, especially since it was made specially for Xinxin. Chu Tian couldn't help but wonder, Chu Jun has changed so much now, is it because of Yu Zhen's teaching behind the scenes?
Otherwise, how could a person change so much all of a sudden? And it's impossible for everyone to be like him...
Chu Jun looked at Chu Tian in surprise, "Little brother, Xinxin is only six years old this year, why did you let her go to school so early?"
Chu Tian explained with a smile, "Xinxin doesn't want to stay at home. It just so happens that several children from my eldest and second uncle's families are going to school this fall. Oh, and Si Ya also wants to go to school, so I thought of letting her go with us. We can just treat it as a place for fun. Even if she can't keep up, it doesn't matter. She can go back to first grade next year."
Chu Jun nodded and said, "That's fine. When we go to school, let Daya take Xinxin with her every day."
Chu Tian smiled and nodded, "Okay."
After seeing Chu Tian off, Chu Jun looked at Yu Zhen and asked with a smile, "Why did you want to make a shoulder bag for Xinxin?"
Yu Zhen turned around and closed the gate. As she and Chu Jun walked towards the fields, she explained with a smile, "I heard Daya say that a few days ago. I wanted to make a jacket for Xinxin, but we don't have any cloth coupons, and we can't alter old clothes, so I thought about making her a pair of shoes or something. I looked through our fabrics and found some nice colors, so I thought I'd make her a shoulder bag first. It would also be good for carrying paper and pens."
Chu Jun nodded, looked at Yu Zhen with appreciation and said, "You did the right thing. My sister-in-law is pregnant now, and I heard her reaction is very strong. She definitely doesn't have the energy to do it for Xinxin."
Yu Zhen's face was filled with a smile that came from the heart. She had not had a single comfortable day since her divorce and had almost given up hope on life, but she did not expect that God would let her meet Chu Jun again.
She married Chu Jun despite her former in-laws not being supportive of them. Although her current mother-in-law was not a good one, Chu Jun protected her and let her make decisions about food and other things at home, so her life was better than before in her former in-laws' family.
When Chu Tian passed by Uncle Chu's house with his bag, he happened to meet Chu Jie's wife, Wang Meihua. Chu Tian greeted her with a smile as usual, "Sister-in-law Meihua, are you going to work?"
Normally, Wang Meihua should have answered "Yes" and then asked "Are you going to work too?" However, Wang Meihua did not play by the rules. When she saw Chu Tian, she stepped forward and tried to pull Chu Tian's sleeve.
"Chu Tian, I..."
Chu Tian was so frightened that he took several steps back. "Sister Meihua, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't be so hesitant. What will happen if this gets out?"
Wang Meihua showed a hurt expression on her face, "Chu Tian, I'm your sister-in-law, why are you so wary of me?"
Chu Tian looked at her with a vigilant expression, "Sister-in-law Meihua, if you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't say anything that will cause misunderstanding!"
Wang Meihua spoke directly after hearing this, "Chu Tian, your brother Jie has always been very good to you. Can you, can you help your brother Jie?"
Chu Tian frowned, "What's wrong, Brother Jie?"
Wang Meihua thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "You, your brother Jie wants to split up..."
"What do you mean? Just say it!"
Chu Tian looked at Chu Jie's wife with a suspicious expression. He knew what kind of person Chu Jie was. If his uncle didn't say to divide the family, how could he possibly want to divide it in advance?
What's more, before the spring plowing this year, my uncle said that they would divide the family property after the autumn harvest. Even if Chu Jie was anxious, he wouldn't be able to wait for these few months, right?
Chu Jie's wife closed her eyes, then took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to speak, "Your brother Jie also wants to build a cement brick house, but my parents said that there is only less than 200 yuan at home, and if we divide it among the three families, each family can only get a few dozen yuan..."
"So, so I want to borrow some money from you!"
Chu Tian frowned, "Brother Jie, why didn't you come to me directly if you needed money? Why did you ask me to come instead?"
Wang Meihua was too guilty to look at Chu Tian and stammered, "You, your brother Jie is embarrassed to say it."
Chu Tian looked at Wang Meihua like this, what else did he not know?
He sneered in his heart, but replied calmly, "Oh, really? It's okay, I'll take the initiative to ask Brother Jie."
As he turned around and was about to walk towards the gate of his uncle's house, Wang Meihua was so scared that she wanted to pull Chu Tian away, "Chu, Chu Tian..."
