Zhuang Hualin came here with a request today. He was smiling and cautious from the moment he entered the room, and he was trying hard to win favor with him both inside and outside of his words.
"Sister-in-law, Pengfei caused you a lot of trouble when he came to Suzhou last time. After he returned, he kept mentioning that he had a great time at his uncle's house, and that his uncle and aunt were very kind to him."
These words were indeed sincere, Xiang Pengfei thought so, and he shouted very happily at this moment: "Auntie, uncle."
Huang Ling naturally had no objection to Xiang Pengfei. She smiled at him, and Zhuang Chaoying even laughed and said: "Pengfei, you have grown a lot taller."
Knowing what was going to happen next, Huang Ling didn't want Xiang Pengfei to hear it, so she said with a smile: "Pengfei, Dongzhe knew you were coming and kept talking about taking you to the bookstore to buy the Rubik's Cube. He is waiting for you at home.
, you go and play with him."
Before they came, she had already told Song Ying and Lin Dongzhe that Lin Dongzhe would take Xiang Pengfei out later.
After Xiang Pengfei heard this, he responded happily, then shouted and ran next door to find Lin Dongzhe.
Zhuang Tunan said at this time: "Dad, Mom, I will take Pengfei to buy a Rubik's Cube with Dongzhe, and then bring Pengfei back."
But Huang Ling stopped him and said, "Tunan, you stay, all three of you stay, and you also listen to what mom is going to say next. You also have the right to know these things."
"good."
Zhou Chen took the lead to sit down by the bed, Zhuang Xiaoting sat down next to Zhou Chen, and Zhuang Tunan also sat on the small bench.
After Zhuang Hualin also sat down, Huang Ling finally started.
"Dad, Mom, you want Pengfei and Zhendong Zhenbei to move in, but the house can't accommodate them."
This sentence made several people's expressions change slightly. Zhuang's father had no change at all, because he had kept a straight face since he entered the door. The smiles on the faces of Zhuang's grandmother and Zhuang Hualin disappeared all of a sudden. Zhuang Chaoying
His expression became even colder, he glanced at Huang Ling with dissatisfaction, and sat down with a look of resentment on his face.
Huang Ling sat down next to Zhou Chen without even looking at anyone, but the expression on her face was unusually firm.
It was Grandma Zhuang who broke the calm first and said: "We have also thought about this, so I discussed it with the third daughter-in-law. If you want Xiaoting to live there, I will help you take care of her."
Father Zhuang immediately agreed: "Yes, the five boys live in a big room with an attic. You and the eldest brother live in a small room. It can be crowded. If it doesn't work, you can also live in a neighbor's house. Tunan used to live in a small room.
We just lived next door for a while. It only lasts for about a year. Next year, Tunan and Tusi will both go to college. When they leave, we will be able to live in our house."
Zhou Chen found it funny to hear that Zhuang's father could say such shameless words. These two old guys are really capable of scheming. It wasn't enough to scheming against their family. They even schemed against Song Ying's family and called them shameless.
They are all compliments.
Zhuang Xiaoting was so frightened that she grabbed Zhou Chen's arm with both hands, and Zhou Chen gently held her hand.
"I think it's better for Xiaoting and I to go live with my father and mother-in-law. It just so happens that my father always says that I don't respect my elders and am not filial to them. So take advantage of this and give me a chance. I'll go there.
Take good care of your father, grandma, and, yes, uncle and aunt, I will definitely take good care of them too."
"Dad, grandma, do you think what I said is good?"
When Aunt Zhuang and Aunt Zhuang heard what Zhou Chen said, their expressions became ugly. They came here just to get a bargain, and when they asked Zhuang Xiaoting to go over, they also wanted to let Zhuang Xiaoting work for them. But if they exchanged two for two,
What advantage can there be to take advantage of? What's more, Zhou Chen is a demon king. If he passes, their family will be turned upside down in two days.
But Zhuang Hualin didn't know the truth. As soon as he heard that things could be done, he immediately beamed.
"Tuxi's suggestion is very good. Dad, Mom, sister-in-law, how about we do what Tuxi said? Sister-in-law, don't worry, Pengfei will stay. His father and I will send money every month. My
I will give you all my salary, and I will not embarrass you, sister-in-law and eldest brother."
Huang Ling glanced at Zhuang Hualin and said with a smile: "As long as my parents agree, I have no objection. We can arrange it this way."
Two for three, it seemed that their family suffered a loss, but she knew her son, and since Zhou Chen proposed it himself, he must be sure of it, so instead of objecting, she would follow Zhou Chen's words.
Zhuang Hualin looked overjoyed and looked at his parents excitedly: "That's great, Dad, Mom, and sister-in-law have agreed, so that's it? Let's go back and pack our things now."
As she said this, she was about to leave, fearing that Huang Ling would regret it if she was too late.
But she was too happy too early. She stood up and wanted to go back and pack her things, but Father Zhuang and Grandma Zhuang, including Zhuang Chaoying, all sat there with ugly faces, motionless.
Zhuang Hualin soon realized something was wrong and tentatively called out: "Mom, dad?"
Aunt Zhuang and Aunt Zhuang had a cold expression on their face, not showing any happiness at all. They came here just to put their three children into the old man’s house, where they could eat and drink from the old man’s house, and bring along another one who could work.
By going back, they and the third family would not only be able to save a lot of food, but they would also be able to work for free, and they would also be able to gain favor in front of Zhuang Hualin.
It can be said that it is the best of all three.
But if Zhou Chen is replaced, given Zhou Chen's character, they will definitely not be able to save money and food. With Zhou Chen protecting them, I am afraid it will be difficult for them to direct their granddaughter to work. If they really want to cause trouble, they have seen Zhou Chen's ability.
, even the third child can't beat this young man, who will suffer the consequences if there is a quarrel.
Therefore, even if I beat them to death, I am not willing to let Zhou Chen go.
"Dad, Mom."
Zhuang Hualin yelled again. She saw the problem. Her parents didn't want to agree. Her sister-in-law finally gave in. But her parents refused again. Of course she wouldn't give in.
"Sister-in-law has already agreed. Dad, Mom, what else do you want to do?"
This time, it was Huang Ling's turn to remain calm and look at the two elders calmly, feeling very happy in her heart.
Okay, aren't you all here to plot against me? It's okay, but I have a son who stands up for me. If you want to plot against me, you have to go through my son first.
What Song Ying said was absolutely correct. Her younger son was here to repay her kindness. Ever since her younger son became wise, she was no longer as angry as before. Instead, things have changed. In the past, it was their family who bullied her, and now it is Zhou Chen's turn.
One person bullied their family.
"Birch forest."
It was Grandma Zhuang who spoke first. She sighed and said, "It's not that we don't want to agree. I think it's better to let Tuxi stay here. Isn't he about to take the college entrance examination? If he stays here, the boss will give him tutoring lessons. Xiao
Ting can go to our place alone."
"It's okay, grandma, I know you are thinking about me, but you really don't have to worry. My grades are very stable, ranking first every year, and these grades are all based on my own efforts. My dad has never helped me with tutoring.
, I can pass the college entrance examination on my own, there is no need for extra classes.”
As soon as Zhou Chen finished speaking, Zhuang Xiaoting followed suit and said, "Yes, the second brother didn't ask his father to make up any lessons. He taught himself."
Grandma Zhuang was choked and could not speak. She could only look at her boss: "Boss?"
Zhuang Chaoying was eager to protect his mother, but facts spoke louder than words. He really didn't help Zhou Chen with any lessons, so he could only remain silent.
Seeing that the old woman was exhausted, Father Zhuang changed the subject again and said, "The place where we live is small. If Tutsi comes over, we won't be able to live there."
Huang Ling said angrily: "Dad, what you said is that there is enough room for two children in Zhendong and Zhenbei. But if Tuxi and Xiaoting are replaced, it won't be enough?"
Father Zhuang shouted angrily: "Zhendong and Zhenbei are both boys. Tuxi and Xiaoting are a boy and a girl. Can they be the same?"
"Dad, Mom, if you say that, it would be boring."
"Aling."
Zhuang Chaoying gave a low drink, dissatisfied with Huang Ling's attitude towards her parents.
Huang Ling didn't tolerate him at all and said directly: "Is there something wrong with what I said? I agreed, but my parents disagreed. They insisted on putting several children in our home, and they also wanted to take advantage of Song Ying's family.
Xi took the initiative to think about Pengfei and the others and was willing to go there, but my parents still disagreed. You and I both know what they mean."
Zhuang Chaoying said angrily: "Aling, how could you misunderstand what my parents meant? What they said was right. Zhendong and Zhenbei are boys and can be squeezed together, but Tuxi and Xiaoting are different. There is nothing they can do about it."
Huddle together.”
"Okay, I don't want to argue with you."
Huang Ling thought he was farting, turned to Zhuang Hualin and said, "Hualin, you saw and heard it. You are so smart, you must understand what your parents mean."
Zhuang Hualin looked troubled, but he still begged: "Sister-in-law, I beg you, can you..."
Huang Ling understood what Zhuang Hualin meant, shook her head in disappointment, and said: "I specifically pushed Pengfei away because there were some things I didn't want to say in front of Pengfei, but for the sake of this, I'll open the skylight.
To be honest, I don’t agree with Pengfei to move in and start school before Tunan and Tuxi take the college entrance exams. Tunan and Tuxi are graduating students in the second year of high school. I can’t let anyone or anything affect their college entrance exams.
"
Zhuang Chaoying felt that Huang Ling's words made him embarrassed, and angrily accused: "A Ling, you are crazy."
Zhuang Tunan also had a heart attack at this time.
"Mom, I can definitely take care of myself and not be affected by my brothers."
Zhuang Xiaoting gently pulled Zhuang Tunan, trying to stop him, but Zhuang Tunan was indifferent and still looked at her mother with a stubborn face.
Zhou Chen was really speechless by Zhuang Tunan's stupid behavior. After all, the two of them had lived in the same house for several years, and under their influence, Zhuang Tunan was not affected by him. He was still so ridiculous.
Sure enough, a person's personality is not easy to change, and Zhuang Tunan is still more like Zhuang Chaoying at heart.
Huang Ling fought for his own rights and interests, but in the end he rebelled directly and didn't even care about his younger brothers and sisters.
Check out the correct version one by one!
He knew very well what kind of life Zhuang Xiaoting would have had if she followed her father and mother-in-law there, but he didn't say a word to help, as if he didn't care at all how miserable his own sister would be, and instead helped his cousin
He spoke as if he was righteous.
Such a character is the proper second generation of Zhuang Chaoying. Who knows who will live with him in the future.
Zhou Chen really wanted to kick him, but this morning, Huang Ling specifically told him not to mess around, let alone do anything. In order not to embarrass Huang Ling, Zhou Chen just glanced at Zhuang coldly.
Tunan.
Zhuang Hualin followed Zhuang Tunan's words and hurriedly promised: "Sister-in-law, I will tell Pengfei not to disturb Tunan and Tuxi."
Huang Ling didn't even look at her. Instead, she spoke softly and patiently explained to Zhuang Tunan.
"Tu Nan, our family is so small. Pengfei and Zhendong Zhenbei can only share a room with you and Tuxi. Five people live together. How can you not be affected?"
"Mom must ensure your learning environment. Next fall, high school will be changed from a two-year system to a three-year system. If your brothers do not do well in the exam next year, the high school academic system will be changed, and the content will also be changed. Mom cannot let you risk this.
risk."
"Tunan, your brother can understand my heart, and I hope you can understand it too."
Zhuang Tunan remained silent. It wasn't that he didn't understand, but he felt that the two things were not in conflict. He also had confidence in himself and felt that he would not be affected.
Seeing that Huang Ling spoke so firmly, Grandma Zhuang quickly said: "A-Ling, let's discuss this matter slowly."
"Discuss, why didn't Lao San and his family come today? Oh, Pengfei is our family's responsibility and has nothing to do with his family?"
Huang Ling is no longer the Huang Ling she was when she first got married. She was already confident, and now she has a younger son who supports her unconditionally and gives her confidence. Therefore, she is not afraid at all when facing the entire old banker.
Hold your head high.
"I was assigned to a cotton spinning factory after I graduated from junior high school. After working for five years, Chaoyingcai was transferred to the factory from Changzhou. I have worked in the factory longer than him. The marriage room was applied for in my name, Tunan, Tuxi.
After I grew up with Xiaoting and the others, the factory helped me move the house to the two rooms I have now. This house was a benefit given to me by the cotton spinning factory. If I don't agree, no one can live in it."
This sentence was like speaking to death. Zhuang Hualin lowered his head, the eyes of the old couple were full of shock, and Zhuang Chaoying stared at Huang Ling angrily.
Huang Ling still spoke in a soft tone, whispering: "If Chaoying insists on taking care of Pengfei, we will divorce him first, and the three children will follow me, and he will move out."
Zhuang Chaoying trembled with anger when he heard that he even mentioned the divorce. Zhuang's father even pointed at Huang Ling and scolded her, while Zhuang's grandma stopped him with a red face.
"Ah Ling, Tunan and Tuxi are the eldest and second grandchildren of our banker..."
Huang Ling directly blocked her words: "That's why I specially left them here today, just to let them hear how their father and mother treated their eldest and second grandchildren."
Zhuang Chaoying said anxiously: "Aling, I am the eldest son of the family, so what if I take care of my nephews?"
With Zhuang Chaoying's support, Grandma Zhuang is even more energetic.
"A-Ling, you really want to go overboard. I feel sorry for you for raising so many children by yourself, and I want Xiao Ting to live there."
"Okay. Didn't I just agree to let Tu Xi and Xiao Ting live together, but you don't agree."
Good guy, we have come around here again. Grandma Zhuang was choked badly, but she was thick-skinned. This method didn't work, so she played the emotional card again and talked about how hard they worked to raise the three Zhuang Chaoying brothers and sisters.
Jiliwala said a lot.
Huang Ling listened patiently to what she said, and then talked about her feelings in a soft voice and talked about the past, that is, the matter of asking for salary. Back then, they not only wanted Zhuang Chaoying's salary, but also her salary.
To this day, after so many years, Zhuang Chaoying still pays them one-third of their salary every month.
Father Zhuang, who was full of anger, couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed the tea cup and threw it on the ground.
"Crack!"
Zhou Chen moved very quickly and stood up in an instant, guarding Huang Ling behind him, looking at Zhuang Adi and Zhuang Chaoying with cold eyes.
Zhuang Chaoying had been so angry for a long time that he couldn't vent his anger towards Huang Ling. When he saw Zhou Chen stood up, he looked at him with a particularly rebellious look, and he couldn't hold back his anger.
"You rebellious son, what's that look in your eyes? What do you want to do? Do you want to hit me, or do you want to hit your father?"
Zhou Chen said coldly: "I will kill anyone who bullies my mother."
"You treacherous son, I will beat you to death."
"Crack!"
With a familiar move, Zhou Chen once again grabbed Zhuang Chaoying's wrist.
"Have you been beaten so many times?"
With a flick of his wrist, Zhuang Chaoying felt a force coming from him. His body retreated uncontrollably, and then he sat down on the chair he had just sat on, with a look of unacceptable expression on his face.
"It's such a waste to break a good water glass like this. Xiao Ting, go get a broom and sweep out the garbage."
"Ah? Oh, oh."
Zhuang Xiaoting felt something was wrong, but since her second brother said it, she would definitely do it without hesitation.
But as soon as she stood up, Huang Ling grabbed her and shook her head.
Huang Ling looked at her youngest son who was standing in front of her like a jade pillar holding the sky, and her heart felt as if it had been filled with honey, which was very sweet.
She doesn't care if her husband doesn't protect her, because she has her son to protect her.
"Tusi, come and sit down, please stop saying a few words. Your father and your father and mother-in-law are old. If you get angry, they will scold you for being disobedient and unfilial."
Holding her youngest son's hand, Huang Ling felt particularly at peace. Her younger son was now taller than Zhuang Chaoying. She used to protect him from the wind and rain, but now he protects her from the wind and rain.
