Compared with his previous appearance, this middle-aged man's faint smile made Ru Datao a little flattered.
He quickly invited them politely: "It's okay, actually you can wait a moment. I guess they will be back at noon. Otherwise, you can stay for dinner. My daughter is a good cook."
The middle-aged man raised his hand and stopped Ru Datao's invitation with great force:
"No, I'm leaving. I've been very busy, and I wanted to get together during the New Year. As fathers, there's nothing we can do about our children's lack of filial piety, but if our children get married or something, they still need me as their father, right?
I hope Comrade Ru can give Zhong Chen a message: I am staying at Songyu Hotel, and he will come back later, so come here."
"...Okay, okay."
"Goodbye, Comrade Ru."
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he left with his hands behind his back.
Ru Datao hurriedly sent him off: "Goodbye, goodbye, Comrade Zhong."
Luo Shenqin deliberately lagged behind. When the middle-aged man walked out of the door, she happened to be standing behind Ru Datao and said in a low voice: "Don't bring anyone with you. When father and son meet, they don't say they want to see someone."
Ru Da Tao was not good at talking, and he didn't want to talk, so he just stood at the door, watching Luo Shenqin put her arm around the middle-aged man and walked away in an imposing manner, leaving behind a crushed cigarette on the way.
Ru Xin ran over and said, "Dad, these two people are really annoying. Are they Brother Chen's parents? They look nothing alike to me."
Ru Datao still looked at the backs of the two people, took a deep breath, and then exhaled: "Xinxin, let's not go shopping. Let's go back to the old house first and move in early after the New Year."
"Dad, you promised to take me shopping!" Ru Xin pouted.
Ru Datao frowned: "Xinxin, dad is a little tired."
"...Okay, then, Dad, please stop riding. I can walk."
"It's okay to ride a bike. It saves a lot of effort. You can also bring something with you there."
"Dad, you are very unhappy. What's wrong? Is it because Brother Chen's parents are here? You don't like Brother Chen's parents either, right? I don't like them either. Last time she came, my sister and I were still
A little wolf scared her, hahaha, Zhongshen was so scared that she peed, hahahaha!" Ru Xin shook Ru Da Tao's arm and chirped a lot.
"Who is Zhongshen? Have they been here before?"
"Yes! That woman has been here..." Ru Xin told Ru Datao what happened before.
Ru Datao's face became even worse.
He was not interested in picking up his bicycle and going out for a moment. Instead, he went back to the kitchen and sat down, worried.
The joy of the New Year and the excitement of finding my daughter's virginity were all gone at this moment.
Ru Xin followed him all the time and even poured water for his father: "Dad, you are unhappy. Are you afraid that Brother Chen will be like his parents and treat your sister badly?"
Ru Datao was so worried that he didn't know who to talk to, so he simply said to his youngest daughter: "That's right, Xinxin, you look like our family is also very troublesome. Your grandma used to run away from us all the time."
We come home to have a quarrel, and then Tang Zihong quarrels with me. After the quarrel, she will beat your sister..."
Ru Xin was angry: "Hit me too!"
"Yes, I'll beat you too. So, you have to know that this marriage is not just for two people, but for two families. I think the two people who came today are..."
Ru Xin interjected: "They are all big-tailed wolves! My sister said that many of these well-dressed and fake smiles are big-tailed wolves!"
Ru Datao pursed his lips. He couldn't say whether it was a big-tailed wolf or not, but this family looked complicated at first glance.
The middle-aged man named Zhong must be from the county committee. Who is from the county committee?
Ru Datao was just a junior clerk in the Forestry Bureau, and he didn't know many people in the county committee except for the leaders in charge. But he saw a car on the street when this man left.
A leader who can ride in a car... his family can't afford it.
And that woman.
Zhong Chen said early in the morning that his mother was gone.
Then this woman today is the stepmother.
Since ancient times, the rice in the stepmother's hands has not been delicious.
It was already hard enough for Xiaoyu to be fed by Tang Zihong, her adoptive mother. Is it possible that she would have to suffer from the anger of such a stepmother in the future?
This person is a bit inappropriate!
Ru Datao nodded to Ru Xin dejectedly: "Yes, it's hard to get along with her anyway. Dad doesn't want your sister to associate with these people. Xinxin, what do you think Dad should do?"
Unexpectedly, Ru Xin said nonchalantly: "Then we won't have any contact with you!"
"You kid, how can you not interact with each other! Do you know what interaction means? Those are Brother Chen's parents. How can a person not interact with his own parents?"
"I know, it's just like what we did with the country grandma. We don't have contact with grandma now, why can't my sister not have contact with those people? Dad, grandma doesn't like me, and I don't like her either. We don't have contact with the country people.
I’m very happy when grandma and the others come and go, aren’t you happy?”
"This..." Ru Datao was speechless for a moment.
To be honest, this year there is no Li Yuliang coming to make a fuss about this or that, and there is no Tang Zihong doing everything in his power because of Li Yuliang coming to make a fuss. He just spends the New Year in harmony with his children, and he is really better than anyone else.
So happy!
However, this kind of happiness can only be secretive.
He still felt a little guilty.
I always feel that ignoring his mother and not giving her new year gifts is really not something that can be brought to light. If people find out, wouldn't they say he is being unfilial?
Ru Xin didn't have any ideological baggage at all and said to herself:
"Sister said that if you want to live a comfortable life, you must stay away from those who are harmful to your body and mind. That is to say, if anyone makes us uncomfortable or unhappy, we just ignore them. Dad, if my sister doesn't
I like those two people just now, but my sister won’t pay attention to them, so why are they still hanging out with each other?”
Ru Datao scratched his head.
Xiaoyu's current thoughts are not wrong. He agrees with it in his heart and feels it. Away from the endless demands and criticisms of his mother and brother, he really feels that his body is much better and he is in a good mood. However, his situation is different from Xiaoyu's.
The situation is different.
After a girl falls in love with someone, doesn’t she have to marry into another family?
When girls go to other people's homes, they don't have to live according to other people's rules.
Zhong Chen can ignore his parents and not interact with them, but if Xiaoyu, as his daughter-in-law, does the same, others will definitely criticize Xiaoyu, and the two couples who came today are not easy to mess with at first sight.
Such a future is too troublesome.
Ru Da Tao was worried about Ru Yue, but it was no longer suitable to talk about such worries with Ru Xin.
He sat alone, drank tea for a while, and kept wondering whether he should ask Ru Yue to stop having sex with Zhong Chen immediately, until Ru Xin came to pull him out impatiently:
"Dad, let's go, or I'll listen to you. We won't go shopping. We might as well go back to our old house first. Today is the New Year. I'm dressed so beautifully. Let's go out for a walk!"
Ru Da Tao then stood up and pushed his bicycle out again.
