Chapter 236 Filial piety
Chapter 236 Filial Piety
Although today's engagement between Tang Chu and Lan Dazhuang had some problems in the Tang family, in the end the engagement process went on smoothly.
When leaving Tianshui Village, Lan Sibo was alone on Lan Dazhuang's tractor, except for his bicycle and sewing machine.
When I went back, there was Tang Chu and her parents.
At the beginning of Tang Dynasty, his father worked in the county factory and went to the factory to take half a day off in the morning, so when Lan Dazhuang and Lan Sibo delivered the "three big items", he was not at home.
Later, after the Lan family and Tang Chu's grandmother reached an agreement on the bride price, Tang Chu's father returned from the factory.
…
The tractor drove into the village with a "chunk..."
The Lan family, Lan Shengli and Chang Chunfang have been waiting for a long time.
This was Tang Chu's first visit to Lan's house. She had even been mentally prepared before, thinking that because her partner's house was in a rural area, the house might not be very good.
But after arriving, she discovered that the Lan family lived in a large brick house with tiles that was one of the best in the village!
The conditions are no worse than her house in the county town!
In the early Tang Dynasty, the parents felt a little relieved when they saw the family situation of their future in-laws.
After Tang and Lan sat down and chatted for a while in the main room's living room, Tang Chu's parents both had smiles on their faces.
They really didn't expect that their future son-in-law's parents were actually educated people!
Especially the son-in-law’s father, whose ancestral home is actually in Kyoto——
This immediately changed their impression that their son-in-law's family were completely villagers.
After the exchange between the elders of both sides ended, Tang Chu also took care of Lan Dazhuang and ate something at home to cushion his stomach.
After that, the two families set off to the county town together.
In one morning, the tractor made three trips back and forth.
Lan Shu had called a long time ago and booked a large private room for more than ten people in the most famous hotel in the county.
After Lan Dazhuang sent them to the location first, Lan Dazhuang went to Tang's house with Tang Chu, picked up Tang Chu's grandfather, grandmother, uncle, uncle and younger brother, and came to the hotel together.
In the restaurant, Lan Shu is considered a regular customer here. She told the chef in advance to prepare the dishes and started serving them as soon as everyone from the Tang family arrived.
Soon, the big table was filled with all kinds of exquisite dishes that can only be found in big restaurants in the county.
Tang Chu's parents were very satisfied with the Lan family's preparation.
Only Grandma Tang Chu glanced at the dining table, and then asked Lan Dazhuang, who was next to her granddaughter, "How much does this meal cost?"
How would Lan Dazhuang know this answer?
He subconsciously turned to look at his sister——
Lan Shu received the questioning look from her eldest brother. She did not answer immediately, but turned to look at Grandma Tang Chu, "It doesn't cost much. As long as everyone eats and drinks well at noon today, it will be fine."
Hearing her words, Grandpa Tang Chu had already started to use his chopsticks and reached out to pick up the big elbow on the table.
Grandma Tang Chu has not started eating yet. She can see that Lan Shu, the youngest and still a girl at the dinner table, seems to have a say in the Lan family?
So she asked again, "Are you the sister of my grandson-in-law who is the factory director? If my grandson marries your elder brother in the future, you will have to pay more to our Tang Chu family in the factory~!"
What these words said really made Lan Shu feel off-putting. She had seen the old lady treat her eldest brother with a lukewarm attitude. Now when she saw her sister, who was the director of the factory, she treated her eldest brother and her grandson-in-law
'Have you been given a title?
Lan Shu just glanced at Grandma Tang Chu lightly. Before she could speak, Tang Chu had already stood up from his seat at the dining table——
"Miscellaneous! What are you talking about? My salary is not low now, and I can make money based on my own skills! Factory Director Lan is good enough to me."
On the side, Grandma Tang Chu heard her granddaughter’s words and felt that she really didn’t like it!
She looked at Tang Chu, her eyes full of complaints, "The salary is not low, but I don't see you paying for it every month. Please be filial and filial to me."
Hearing what Grandma Tang Chu said, Lan Shu couldn't help but look at Grandma Tang Chu's face a few more times.
Previously, she saw that Tang Chu was so outstanding and thought that the elders in Tang Chu's family were more open-minded and would allow girls to go to college.
But now in the situation of the elders in Tangchu's family, she couldn't imagine how shameless they must be to say such things?
When a daughter goes to work to make money, she should be filial to her parents, but a grandma still wants to ask her granddaughter for money every month?
When a granddaughter is willing to spend money on grandma, it is out of love. If she doesn't give it, no one can gossip. After all, the old lady's son is not dead yet~!
If the other party was not Tang Chu's biological grandmother, Lan Shu would definitely not be able to resist and directly attack her!
But today the situation is different and the occasion is different.
During the engagement party between her eldest brother and Tang Chu, she had to take Tang Chu's face into account no matter what she said.
So Lan Shu patiently replied to Grandma Tang Chu, "Don't worry, Tang Chu is in our factory, and I will definitely not treat her badly. After all, we will be a family from now on."
"As for honoring you, my eldest brother is not an ungrateful person. From now on, at the end of every year, he will definitely come to your door with gifts and visit his father-in-law, mother-in-law, as well as you and Tang Chu's grandfather."
Lan Shu said this politely and decently. In fact, even if she didn't say it, Lan Dazhuang would definitely visit Tang Chu's parents during the Chinese New Year.
Therefore, she agreed to the filial piety of Grandma Tang Chu at this time, which was what she should have done. It just sounded nice, but in fact it did not allow Grandma Tang Chu to take any extra advantage.
Sure enough, when Grandma Tangchu heard this, she immediately became unhappy!
"Just to be filial during the New Year?" Grandma Tang asked dissatisfied.
"if not?"
Now it was Lan Shu's turn to show a confused expression.
"Do you still want to receive a gift on August 15th?" Lan Shu suddenly understood and changed her tone.
"Actually, that's okay. After all, August 15th is a big festival. Since you have spoken, I must tell my elder brother that he should also visit his father-in-law and mother-in-law every August 15th, and also visit you by the way."
After saying this, he clearly revealed that the old lady insisted on asking for a gift, and told the other party that the Lan family was generous and could afford such a gift.
At the same time, it also discourages the old lady from asking for gifts on other festivals.
And the meaning behind the last sentence ‘by the way’ can be understood by smart people at the dinner table.
Uncle Lan almost said, 'Grandma, you want too much!'
Grandma Tang Chu originally wanted to take advantage of it a lot.
She felt that if her granddaughter could get into a family where the daughter was the factory director, she would definitely want to get some benefits from Lan Shu, the factory director.
But now she can see that the female factory director of the Lan family may be rich, but she is really not generous!
I don’t want her family to take advantage at all!
