In fact, when she called, Wen's mother's original words were: "Why are you replying? The ticket doesn't cost money? You might as well buy Xiaozhuang a few pounds of meat with that money."
Wen Xiaowen thought that she was the one who turned Wen Xiaonuan's family upside down, so she started to persuade her.
"Mom, I haven't been back to my parents' home for several years anyway, so just think of it as her going back to visit relatives. My brother-in-law has already bought the tickets for her."
"Really? Your brother-in-law helped buy the ticket? That means your sister wasn't forced back."
"No, if I rush back, who will help me buy the ticket? Besides, I haven't met Xiaozhuang yet. It would be nice to go back and cultivate a relationship with him. In the future, there will be someone to help Xiaobao, don't you think?
Besides, it's so tiring for you to take care of Xiao Zhuang every day at your age. My sister can help you share the burden when she goes back."
When the person on the other end of the phone heard this, he no longer objected.
"Then go back. Remember to ask her to bring back more rice, flour, oil, and salt from home. Bring back any good things."
"Okay, okay, got it."
Wen Xiaowen said a few perfunctory words and hung up.
Soon, the three of them set out on their journey back to Beijing.
Little did she know that Wen Xiaonuan had sent herself from a comfortable home to a den of wolves.
When Wen's mother saw the two sisters each carrying a bundle, her face darkened.
"That's all you brought back? You haven't been back to your parents' house for so long and you didn't even buy them something nice to honor them. What's the point of me raising you? I might as well raise a chicken and kill it for meat."
Wen Xiaonuan thought that her mother knew that she was kicked out by Gu Tianlei, and she also fantasized that she would receive meticulous care after entering the house.
"Mom, I'm still upset." Wen Xiaonuan threw away her bag and slumped in the chair.
"Mom, my sister...was actually driven back by my brother-in-law."
After Wen Xiaowen said this, she made an excuse that she had something to deal with at the Cultural Bureau, put down her things and left, leaving the three of them in the room looking at each other in bewilderment.
When Wen's mother heard that she was kicked out, she was furious.
"You just left when he chased you away? You can't even beg for mercy? Tell me, what's the point of you? You can't even hold the heart of your man.
I asked him to find a job for your sister before, but he kept declining. I asked him to introduce Cheng Fangyi to your sister, but he kept refusing. I think you're just too useless.
If you had your man in your hand, our family wouldn't have to live in such hardship. Why are you sitting here? Go get to work."
As she spoke, a pile of clothes was stuffed into Wen Xiaonuan's arms. They looked like clothes for a baby.
"Dad, Mom, what are you doing? I've been riding in the car for several days and I'm exhausted. I need to rest for a while."
Wen Xiaonuan put the clothes in her arms aside and walked towards her old house.
But I found that it had already been converted into a children's room, filled with all kinds of toys, and a three-year-old baby was sleeping soundly on the bed.
"Dad, Mom, won't you explain it to me?"
Mother Wen avoided her gaze and pretended not to hear what Wen Xiaonuan said.
Father Wen glanced at him and said, "I'm your father. Do I have to explain to you what I do? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
"My house."
Mother Wen quickly covered Wen Xiaonuan's mouth and said, "Oh my god, I'm going to die. Why are you yelling so loudly? What if you wake up your brother?"
"younger brother?"
Father Wen still told the truth, "Your mother and I gave birth to him."
"Mom, you're already so old. Why are you giving birth when you're over fifty? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
"What's wrong? I am willing to give birth to a child. I want to drink your milk or eat your food.
You and your sister are both girls. A daughter who is married off is like spilled water. If I don’t give birth to a child, who will break the pot for us in the future?
Besides, neither you nor your sister are up to the task, so I can't count on you. If you have any objections, just leave. This is our Wen family, not your Gu family. Why are you throwing a tantrum here? "
Wen Xiaonuan felt a little aggrieved, as she had originally thought her parents' home was her safe haven.
So over the years, I have sent a lot of money and food back to maintain this safe haven.
Who would have thought that two old guys at such an old age would get a trumpet to practice.
"What are you standing there for? If you want to live at home, go get some work done. Come on, wash your brother's diapers first.
He drinks milk frequently and always poops his pants."
Wen Xiaonuan reluctantly carried a basin of diapers to wash them.
Fortunately, the Wen family has its own entrance and exit, and no one can see inside when the door is closed. If people knew that I went back to my mother's house to wash my brother's diapers, they would be laughed to death.
After all, after marrying into the Gu family, Wen Xiaonuan was often teased for falling into a golden nest.
In fact, she really enjoyed herself.
She is the one who gets the salary and only needs to cook and do laundry when Gu Tianlei is not available.
Gu Tianlei also helped her find a job at the Women's Federation. Every day was very leisurely, and she could just knit a sweater and chat.
After finally washing a basin of clothes, Wen's mother started to order her to cook.
Wen Xiaonuan finally understood why Wen Xiaowen left so quickly. It turned out that she had found a place to hide away after finding her free labor, and she didn't come back until dinner time.
Wen Xiaonuan suddenly felt that this home was so strange. Her family members no longer revolved around her, and there was almost no trace of her.
At the dinner table, Wen Xiaonuan finally got to see her younger brother, who was almost twenty to thirty years younger than her, up close.
He has a round head and a chubby face, and it seems that the old couple has taken great care of him.
"Xiao Zhuang, come here, let mom feed you."
The three-year-old baby still needs to be fed by his mother one mouthful at a time.
Wen's mother picked up a piece of fat meat, licked it, put it in her mouth for a while, blew on it, and then fed the piece of meat full of "love" into Xiaozhuang's mouth.
