"My dear son, I'm tired too.
Why didn't I try to be a peacemaker? I was hoping to bring out your uncle's filial piety. Your grandmother must be feeling the pain too, having lost a son in her old age. When your uncle first passed away, I was worried she wouldn't be able to handle it.
As time goes by, I keep wondering how long your grandma can live now that she's old. How much longer can she endure?
It's only in these few years, you see her taking things and forgetting things, I always wonder, if I want to be patient in the future, will there be anyone to let me be patient?
You and Yiqing... I'm not like you think, saying I've never cared about your mom. Without her, where would you be?!
Why didn't it get like this before? Xiaofeng, you don't know.
It turns out that if I find that your grandma is unhappy for a while, I will discuss with your uncle privately and take the old lady away for a few days. She won't dare to bully your aunt and will be quiet when she goes to your uncle's house.
Haven't we been living backwards all these years?
Do you think your grandma is happy to go to your uncle's house?
You think I'm your dad? I really don't know what's going on?
If I didn't understand your mother, how could I, as the eldest brother, secretly say that to my younger brother? That would be like indirectly pushing your grandmother away!
well!
Your uncle is gone, and now your grandma doesn't even have a place to move to and let your mother breathe.
Not to mention that your aunt is abroad, even if she were still in China, there is no reason for our family to send your grandma over.
I am also old, Xiaofeng, and you are still not married. You are stuck with your mother, who is a person you can't say anything about.
If your mother is really capable and acts like this with your wife in the future, will you be able to stop kissing your parents?"
Chu Yifeng pursed his lips. He looked at his tall father sitting in front of him and was speechless for a moment.
He grabbed the bottle and shook his head at Chu Hongtian:
"Dad, drinking won't solve the problem. No matter how much you drink, you'll still have to endure the pressure and sleep on the couch."
The father and son fought over the bottle of wine, and just as Chu Hongtian snorted coldly, Chu Yifeng spread his hands in surrender.
He understood it in his heart.
My father was never good at handling interpersonal relationships, but if you let him shed blood on the battlefield, he would be like a chicken with its blood pumped up. He wouldn't take a single step back. Even if he was the only one left, he could hold on for 24 hours without thinking of any surprise attack. He would just keep moving forward bravely. That's his father.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to beat my uncle and make him flee in panic. He was a well-known hero who was not afraid of his own life.
But if you ask him to deal with the "mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflict", he is a person who doesn't like to think naively. It's really unfortunate for him to have a mother like his grandmother who never likes to think from other people's perspective.
It is said that my father was a political commissar for a while, but his ideological work ended up being corporal punishment. Later, because of this, he wrote many ideological reports and admitted his mistakes to his superiors...
Besides, his family’s situation is indeed different from others.
Nowadays, most families have three or five children, and anyone can relax by staying in one place for a year or two.
His grandmother's personality is so annoying. She just stays at home and finds trouble every day. If he could persuade his grandmother, it wouldn't have come to this.
Now that my uncle is gone, there's no way we can even divide the family property. I have to stay at his house. My father and mother both want to live a good life, but that's how difficult it is.
Chu Yifeng squinted his eyes as he held the wine glass, and when he looked up again he changed the subject:
"Dad, life is all about understanding. Listen to me and don't raise your voice. If you wake up my mom and say something that makes her even more upset, I'm afraid you won't even be able to sleep on the sofa."
This unfilial son! Neither his daughter nor his son are filial! They didn't even think of leaving him a hot meal!
Chu Hongtian stood up, rummaged through the bowl rack, found a plate of leftovers and put it on the table.
"explain!"
"You haven't put yourself in my mother's shoes about my uncle's situation. I'm afraid that's the main reason why my mother is disappointed. My grandmother is the only elder left. You only care about coaxing and praising her, but you would rather let my mother endure it, and she has been enduring it for decades.
Why don't you think about the fact that my mother only has that one brother left, and she's been looking forward to meeting my uncle for decades, but when you found out, you were furious. When have you ever heard what she really thinks? Do you really understand?"
Chu Hongtian was still Chu Hongtian after all. When he heard Liang Yinsheng's name without any warning, his anger flared up.
Food and wine were spitting out of his mouth, and it was obvious that he was very excited:
"Bullshit! Your grandma was a bandit? Did she fight against our army? Did my old men die at her hands?! You call him uncle, and he sounds so affectionate, but he is the worst kind of guy! Get lost!"
…
Chu Yiqing stood in the living room, held Liang Yinqiu and helped her sit down on the sofa.
They had woken up long ago.
Chu Hongtian, please lower your voice. This is not a big courtyard. There is no upstairs or downstairs. Everyone can hear it.
Wang Jianan wanted to cough to alert his father-in-law and brother-in-law outside, but Chu Yiqing glared at him and he swallowed the cough back.
He was completely frustrated. He wondered if his father-in-law and brother-in-law had lost their minds, staying awake so late at night. They dared to bring up such a tangent. After a while, his mother-in-law lost her temper and everything quieted down.
Liang Yinqiu sat on the sofa with a calm expression and a sarcastic smile on her face.
…
"dad!"
Chu Hongtian took a deep breath and tried to reason with his clever son:
“Times have changed, but Chu Yifeng, you are still too young.
Liang Yinsheng was an important general of the bandit army back then. You have not experienced those times and do not understand the cruelty of war.
Since we have different positions, we must be loyal to our respective positions!
Without a country, how can there be a home? Everything our Chu family has now was given by the country. Without what the country has given me, you would still be sitting in front of me and calling me uncle. You would have starved to death long ago! "
