Chapter 1687 Huang Ling and Zhuang Chaoying argued, but nothing happened
"Mother."
Huang Ling looked at her eldest son who was catching up and gently helped him calm down.
"Why didn't you wait until your father came home with you?"
"I was worried about my mother and younger siblings, so I followed them," Zhuang Tunan said truthfully.
Huang Ling's eyes were red and her voice was choked with sobs: "Good children, you are all mother's good children. You haven't even eaten yet. Let's go home and mother will make some noodles for you."
Although what just happened at the banker made her angry and disappointed, she was happy from the bottom of her heart when she saw her three sensible and obedient children.
Especially Zhou Chen's behavior just now, she knew that Zhou Chen did it on purpose, just to protect her and be protected by her own children. Even if she suffered great injustice, she felt very warm and happy in her heart.
After returning home by car, Huang Ling started making noodles, and the family of four happily ate a large pot of noodles.
Huang Ling ate less and felt very distressed when she looked at her three children.
Today they bought two chickens, birthday cakes and other things, but in the end, the three children didn't get a bite, but they got the better of the other family. If she had known, she would have turned the table over.
At ten o'clock, Zhuang Chaoying returned home. When he returned home, he saw several children who were already sleeping, so he wanted to wake Zhou Chen up and teach him a lesson, but Huang Ling forcefully pulled him out.
Room.
Zhuang Chaoying was pulled by Huang Ling to the public washing pool outside. He was very dissatisfied and said: "Why are you dragging me? I will teach this brat Tuxi a good lesson today. Look at what he did today, if it weren't for him
, Mom’s birthday party today won’t be like that.”
Huang Ling retorted unceremoniously: "If it weren't for Tusi, the three of us would have been rushed to the kitchen for a birthday banquet tonight."
Zhuang Chaoying's complexion suddenly changed, and she argued: "It's not like the table can't fit. Even if the table is that big, it can't be squeezed in."
“Can’t even squeeze in?”
Hearing her husband's words, Huang Ling sneered with disdain: "Your parents favor boys over girls. I've known this for a long time. They don't like me or Xiaoting, so I just tolerate it, but Tusi is theirs."
Sun Tzu, why can people from Zhendong and Zhenbei be served on the table, but not Tutsi? What do they mean?"
"I can't sit down anymore."
"Zhuang Chaoying, don't do this to me. Every time you talk about your parents, you are like this. I've had enough of following you. Every time, you endure, endure, endure. I can endure it, but I can't.
Let my children endure it with me, I have been holding this breath for a long time."
"Then didn't you vent it out today? You threw the bowl in front of my parents and left. It was such an ugly scene. It was so disrespectful to our elders. My parents worked so hard to raise us.
It’s not easy to celebrate my birthday, but to make such a scene, I, the eldest son of a banker, have no shame in my face.”
"You still have a shameless face? When did you ever have a bright face in your bookmaker?"
Zhuang Chaoying choked on Huang Ling's words and felt uncomfortable in her chest. She said angrily: "A Ling, what you said is too hurtful."
Huang Ling said coldly: "Compared to your parents and your brother's family, I'm already polite enough. Zhuang Chaoying, it's not that you can't see your parents' attitude towards our family. You're just deceiving yourself and pretending not to be able to see."
Come out; what Tusi said is absolutely correct, your family scolded him for not having a tutor, but I think the real lack of tutors is your family."
"Huang Ling."
Zhuang Chaoying was really angry now. He pointed at Huang Ling and his lips trembled: "How could you say such a thing?"
"Am I wrong?"
"Filial piety comes first. When the elders celebrate their birthdays, the younger ones send blessings. This is the traditional virtue of growing flowers. But now, at the birthday banquet, they say things that embarrass their parents and throw the bowl away. This is what the younger generation should do.
Something about?"
Thinking of tonight's birthday banquet, Zhuang Chaoying got angry.
Huang Ling became even more disdainful: "Traditional virtues? As Tusi said, are they traditional virtues that even the captain's daughter-in-law can't bring to the table?"
"What Tusi said today may be a little inappropriate to come out of his mouth, but he stood up for me, for my mother. His blessing, "Mother is kind and son is filial," was really good. Mother is kind.
Talented scholar Xiao, Zhuang Chaoying, I think you are not as accurate as your son, so think carefully about this sentence."
After saying that, she no longer cared about Zhuang Chaoying's ugly expression and went back to the room directly.
Early the next morning, as soon as Huang Ling went to work, Zhou Chen was greeted by Zhuang Chaoying's black face.
Although Huang Ling warned Zhuang Chaoying last night not to let him reprimand Zhou Chen, after one night passed, Zhuang Chaoying still couldn't let go.
"Tusi, do you know what happened last night?"
Zhou Chen was not afraid of Zhuang Chaoying at all and asked: "Where did I go wrong? Tell me."
Zhuang Chaoying suddenly became even more angry: "You still think you are right? Zhuang Tuxi, you are a child of the banker. You made grandma's birthday like that, and you still think you are right. How do I teach you to respect it?
Elders, don’t you remember being filial to your elders?”
"It's right to respect and be filial to your elders, but if my elders don't like me, I'll have to rush to respect and be filial. I think that's not true filial piety, but foolish filial piety."
Zhuang Chaoying's eyes widened. He couldn't believe that he heard these words from his nine-year-old son, just like he couldn't believe that Zhou Chen would say such words last night.
"Nonsense, why don't your father and mother-in-law like you? You are their grandson, how can they not like you."
"You like me, but you don't even let me come to the table? You like me, but you don't even let my mother come to the table? All the dishes on the table last night were cooked by my mother, but in the end, they just said nice words to save face, but
In the end, mom still couldn’t even sit at the table. They probably prefer Zhendong Zhenbei’s family to ours.”
"You, you..."
Zhuang Chaoying's chest hurt due to Zhou Chen's words. He didn't expect that he, an adult, could not speak to a child. What was even more hateful was that although Zhou Chen's words were unpleasant, they were all true. Let him
It's impossible to refute it at all.
"Nonsense, just nonsense. What do you, a child, know?"
"It is precisely because I am a child that I understand better who likes whom and who doesn't, instead of being like you adults who hide their likes and dislikes. Just like you, you know that your parents are more partial.
Third uncle and the others, but you still pretend not to see them and deceive yourself and others."
The last sentence directly broke Zhuang Chaoying's defense. The truth is often the most hurtful, just like Zhuang Chaoying at this time.
He was so angry that he directly raised his hand and was about to slap Zhou Chen in the face with his palm, but Zhou Chen was already prepared. He stood up and ran out, dodging the slap, and then quickly opened the door and rushed out of the room.
In less than two seconds, the person was gone.
Zhuang Chaoying didn't get a slap, but staggered. Zhuang Tunan even yelled and rushed over and shouted: "Dad, don't hit Tuxi."
Zhuang Xiaoting burst into tears, then wiped her tears and ran out of the door.
"Second brother, second brother..."
Zhuang Chaoying was so angry that he rushed out of the door, but saw that Zhou Chen had run downstairs and was still standing there waiting for Zhuang Xiaoting to catch up. Then he picked up Zhuang Xiaoting and ran away.
"You're so angry with me, you treacherous son, you're so angry with me..."
Zhuang Chaoying, who had not had such an angry son for a long time, his chest kept rising and falling. After a short quarrel, he felt that his son was really too angry. Even when he quarreled with Huang Ling before, he was not so angry. It was simply
Every sentence pierced his heart.
Zhuang Tunan looked at his ferocious father with worry and fear.
"dad."
Zhuang Chaoying lowered his head and looked at his eldest son, the anger in his heart slowly subsided. The second son made him mad to death, but the eldest son was still obedient and sensible.
He gently touched Zhuang Tunan's head, thinking that he must teach Zhuang Tunan well in the future and not let him become as rebellious and unfilial as his second son.
At the same time, he secretly swore in his heart that he would not believe that brat would not come back. When he comes back, he must be punished severely.
Zhou Chen hugged Zhuang Xiaoting and ran out of the dormitory area, then put her down, held her hand, and went to the store in the living area of the cotton spinning factory. He used the 20 cents he earned to buy her maltose.
The latest chapter of this novel is first released, please go and read it!
Zhuang Xiaoting was so worried that she cried, but after being coaxed by Zhou Chen a few times, she got better. Now that she ate maltose again, she immediately smiled brightly.
"Second brother, maltose is so delicious."
"If it's delicious, eat it slowly. I'll buy it for you next time."
"Yeah, brother, you eat too."
"Okay, I'll eat."
The brother and sister found a place to sit down and eat sweets together.
Zhou Chen didn't take what happened just now to heart at all. He wasn't afraid of Zhuang Chaoying. If there was a fight, even though he was still young, it would be more than enough to hit Zhuang Chaoying. But it was not necessary. He didn't want to let Zhuang Xiaoting see it.
Let Huang Ling worry.
Therefore, it is better not to look at it and just run out.
After eating the candy, Zhou Chen took Zhuang Xiaoting to play outside and didn't even go home for lunch. Zhuang Xiaoting was not very hungry because she had eaten some maltose, so she followed Zhou Chen outside.
Zhou Chen is still very familiar with Suzhou, but Suzhou in 1977 was still a little unfamiliar to him.
Waiting until Huang Ling got off the morning shift, Huang Ling was very surprised to see her son and daughter. When she learned from her daughter what happened today, she was furious. She carried her two children and returned home angrily.
Zhuang Chaoying faced off again, and finally Zhuang Chaoying had to give in and agreed not to beat Zhou Chen again.
In the evening, Zhou Chen started to write his homework. He first finished his own part, and then started to write Zhang Jun's part. After watching Zhang Jun's handwriting for a while, he began to imitate his handwriting and started writing his homework.
Having experienced many ancient and modern worlds, he has already reached a master level in calligraphy. It is not difficult for him to imitate someone's handwriting.
I can’t say they are 100% similar, but there is a 70% to 80% similarity, and the teacher will definitely not be able to tell the difference.
On Monday, Zhou Chen returned the homework to Zhang Jun. Zhang Jun was very happy after reading it. After giving it to the teacher, the teacher found no problems and everything went smoothly.
Zhang Jun was overjoyed and told Zhou Chen that he wanted Zhou Chen to help him with his homework in the future. Zhou Chen said that it was no problem, as long as he gave him money.
When it came to money, Zhang Jun's face became a little bitter. Nowadays, everyone is very poor and there is not much food left. Although Zhang Jun also has some pocket money, he can't afford to spend it. If he gave it all to Zhou Chen
, he has no money to spend.
So after thinking about it, he decided to do the usual homework by himself and Zhou Chen to do the holiday homework. Zhou Chen raised the price at the right time and said that weekend homework would cost 50 cents. Zhang Jun was so frightened that he shook his head and refused to agree.
In this era, popsicles and ice cream cost two and a half cents. Even in the city of Suzhou, fifty cents was a lot of money for a child.
In the end, the two bargained and settled on 20 cents a time, which made Zhou Chen sigh with emotion. They all said that children's wool is easy to collect, but children in this era really can't collect much wool.
The income of two cents a week obviously could not satisfy Zhou Chen. He thought about it and prepared to develop his next business.
If the quality is not enough, then quantity will be enough.
In school, there is never a shortage of students who don't want to do homework. Elementary school homework is too simple for Zhou Chen. Let alone two copies, even if it is ten copies or twenty copies, it is still a small problem.
So in the next few days, he developed four more families. He also had conditions when looking for people. He was specifically looking for children who had two-income families and few brothers and sisters, or who were simply only children. Such children would definitely have relatively more pocket money.
some.
So, this weekend, he received a dollar, and all five extra assignments were completed within an hour.
The hourly wage is one yuan, which is considered a high-income earner in this era.
And just this week, a piece of good news made their family ecstatic, that is, Huang Ling's name was included in the list of housing allocations in the cotton mill.
The new house is at No. 13, Textile Lane 3, Cotton Mill. It is a house with a small courtyard. There are four rooms in the small courtyard. Huang Ling is divided into two rooms. The other two rooms belong to neighbors, but they have to wait until New Year's Day to get them.
to the key.
This news made the family very happy. They had been crowded in this small room for many years. After moving there, they had two rooms. There was more space, and both adults and children could sleep in it. How could they be unhappy?
Houses in this era cannot be bought or sold. Even if you have money, you can't buy a house, so you can only divide the houses equally.
The joy of dividing the house made Zhuang Chaoying forget the previous unhappiness, and their family seemed to have become a happy family again.
Their family is immersed in the joy of being assigned a new house, while people across the country are immersed in the joy of the resumption of the college entrance examination. The resumption of the college entrance examination is really shocking to the whole country.
The college entrance examination is scheduled for December. According to statistics, there are millions of candidates taking the college entrance examination this year.
The college entrance examination is still a long way away for Zhou Chen now. He didn't have much to do with his family originally, but because Zhuang Chaoying is a high school mathematics teacher, he got connected. Many students who want to take the college entrance examination found Zhuang Chaoying through connections.
, want Zhuang Chaoying to give them tutoring.
Therefore, these days, many people come to visit their home.
