Yu Sui said this and left quickly.
She did everything she could.
She only felt half sympathy for the old man, and the other half still looked down on him.
It's not that I look down on him because he's old and poor, but because I look down on the way he allows himself to be bullied.
Yu Sui feels that people should never allow others to bully them at any time. Being old, unable to work, or having to consider family ties and face should not be reasons for tolerance.
If you endure to this extent, it is because you don't understand the situation and you deserve to suffer.
Anyway, if anyone bullies her to this extent, even if it's her own mother, father, or son, she will hit them with a brick.
Yu Sui was content to cut grass for pigs around the village lane for a while. She was thinking of going back to Old Octopus's house to check on the situation, but she saw the current captain of the troop, Yu Fugui, coming towards her with a group of people.
Judging from the fact that these people are carrying shovels and baskets, they are probably going to dig a ditch nearby.
Yu Sui didn't like the current captain, so she simply picked up her backpack and went home.
Tomorrow she would find out the route of the production team's work and then go find Old Octopus, so as to avoid having to lie and explain herself when asked by the staff.
With Yu Hemiao doing housework at home, Yu Haichao and Sun Yuying have hot meals to eat when they come home from work, and they have two little granddaughters to play with. The family is very happy and the house is often filled with laughter.
During dinner, Yu Cheng mentioned going to high school:
"Dad, Mom, the teacher said yesterday that if I really want to go to high school, I have to go to the county high school myself before the holiday with a letter of introduction from school and my transcript. Tomorrow is the last day, and I've never been to the county, so how can I register? Or maybe I won't go?"
Before anyone else could say anything, Yu Sui reached out her chopsticks and hit Yu Cheng: "It's just a small problem, and you're saying you can't go? How can you be so useless!"
Yu Cheng screamed: "Second sister, why did you hit me!"
Yu Hemiao laughed, "I wanted to hit you too, but I wasn't as quick as your second sister. It's just a matter of signing up, isn't it? Your second sister is willing to cover your tuition, and you still say you don't want to go. She's definitely going to hit you."
Sun Yuying was very good at using her daughter, and happily said, "Yes, your second sister will pay for your tuition. She has also been to the county town several times. Let your second sister take you there."
Yu Haichao: "Yes, yes, it's just a small problem, your second sister will solve it for you."
Yu Sui: “…” I didn’t realize that this cheap dad is the one who is the best at talking.
This shut Yu Sui's mouth.
So, Yu Sui decided to take Yu Cheng to the county to register as a student.
Because of this important matter concerning my brother, asking Old Octopus to investigate the matter had to be postponed.
The next day, before daybreak, Yu Sui was woken up by Sun Yuying: "Aren't you going to the county? If you want to go to the county, you have to get up early."
Yu Sui: "Mom, we're going to register, there's no need to go so early."
"No, you have to go early. People in the county town look down on us country folk. What if they don't let you register if you're late? Go quickly."
"Mom, you seem very worried about Yu Cheng's studies?"
"What do you know? I'm not worried about whether your brother can study or not. I'm worried about whether you and your sister will have a good life in the future."
Yu Sui had not thought of this theory.
Yu Sui put on her clothes and asked Sun Yuying to explain with a smile.
Sun Yuying: "You don't know, these past few days while I was out, I kept thinking about what your sister would do in the future. In this whole brigade, there's hardly a single sister-in-law or brother-in-law who can tolerate a sister-in-law. They all think that once a sister-in-law gets married, she's an outsider and will have to die outside. But there's one exception. Guess whose family it is?"
"Whose family?"
"Secretary Zou's uncle's family. That son is incredibly promising, having studied abroad and becoming quite cultured and capable. When his sister was being bullied by her husband's family, he was the one who took charge and arranged for her parents to bring her back to her parents' home. Now, the man is still working and getting married, and her sister has been living with her parents, taking care of them. See, how wonderful it is! The son still makes a lot of money, has a wife and children, and there's still a daughter left to take care of the family. These parents have truly accumulated great virtue!"
Yu Sui was a little surprised.
Since when did Sun Yuying know how to use people as a mirror, history as a lesson, and refer to other scholars? She is so amazing.
Yu Sui: "Mom, your idea is good. What do you mean now? Even if my sister doesn't want to get married again, you won't urge her to get married?"
Sun Yuying stood beside Yu Sui's bed, rubbing her hands and saying:
"I still have to urge her. I've thought about it carefully. She already has two children and can't have any more. No matter how she marries, it won't work out. Last time, when that production team leader's family got married, you scolded me and woke me up. I thought, that family said that you don't have to have children after marrying into that family. But if your sister marries into that family with two children, won't she have to please them in every way?
With parents and children to support, the household chores alone are overwhelming. Wouldn't that tire your sister out? In the future, when she raises those children and grows up, she'll have to be cared for by sons who weren't her own. She'll be a stepmother, and no one will be grateful to her until she dies. Oh my God, I just feel like this isn't going to work. Forget it.
But your sister not getting married is another annoying problem, because your brother will be dragged down. I think it would be great if we could be like Uncle Zou's family, where the son goes out to make a lot of money and the daughter stays at home to take care of each other. But to have a family like that, the son must first be capable. How can he become capable? The only way is to study, but now I don't know how to study. People from Shanghai are even being sent down to our place, right?
So I had to think about it. When you said the other day that you met a girl in the north and married her in the capital, and that she could go to high school and then go to college, then we should definitely give it a try. If your brother really can go out to study, then he won't be so anxious to stay at home. If he can work outside, he can marry a girl from outside and live in a house allocated outside. Then he won't be so upset about your sister staying at her parents' home. Do you think I think so, right?"
Yu Sui and Sun Yuying looked at each other.
Sun Yuying looked as if she was seeking a positive answer.
Yu Sui suddenly hugged her and kissed her on the cheek: "Mom, yes, you are right, very, very right!"
"Ouch!" Sun Yuying was shocked and wiped her face with a smile: "You are going to die. You are so old and still stick to your mother. You are really stupid."
Yu Sui hugged her neck and acted coquettishly:
"I'm happy. I think our mother is the most open-minded, knowledgeable, and best mother in the entire team. You're so considerate of me. I'll take care of you in the future. This is really a good thing. Besides, my sister gave birth to a child, and now she has our surname. They will be your grandchildren too. Raise them well, and a group of people will honor you!"
