"Yan Yan?" As soon as she walked into the gate of her courtyard, Grandma Mo saw a familiar figure squatting there with her old man pruning flowers and plants, and she suddenly felt very happy.
The young man and the old man with gray hair and childlike face both turned slightly to look at the source of the sound, and then saw the young man standing up from the ground, "Grandma?"
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa," the old lady responded happily, and then said, "Why are you here all of a sudden? You didn't even call your grandpa and me before, so you could go to the town to pick you up?"
The young man said, "I'm here to accompany you during the summer vacation. Uncle Tang sent me here."
"Xiao Tang is here too? Where is he? Are you gone?" The old lady stretched her neck to look for someone.
The old man said, "No, I am on the phone with my in-laws in the back room. I asked him to rest for the night before leaving. It is quite tiring to drive back and forth on such a long journey."
The old lady nodded, "It should be."
Then the old man looked at her empty hands and joked, "Didn't you say you went to the fields to pick vegetables? How come you didn't pick anything back after such a long day?"
The old lady slapped her forehead and said, "Oh, look, I forgot. I'll pick it up right away," and then turned around to go out the door.
"Oh, come on, Chen Chen and I just went to pick it back." The old man called her to stop, and then muttered, "You don't mind the heat in such a big sun, so you just stood outside to bask in it.
Two or three hours of sun.”
The old lady said, "Oh, it's mainly because we were afraid that the three of us would be bullied, so I followed and stood for a while to take a look, but we were all in the shade, not exposed to the sun, and not too hot.
.”
The old man nodded, and then asked, "Then they weren't bullied, right?"
The old lady said, "No, that girl Xiang Jin is so powerful. Not only did the three of them not suffer any bullying, they even asked the old Xiang family to pay several thousand yuan in compensation."
"What's going on?" They knew about selling grain, but they didn't know what happened after entering the house.
The old lady said, "Let's go back to the house and talk."
So the family of three returned to the house. Tang Mingtao happened to be hanging on the phone after making a call. When he saw her, he hurried over to say hello, "Hello Aunt Mo!"
"Oh, okay, okay, are you done with the phone call?" The old lady was concerned with enthusiasm.
Tang Mingtao said, "Well, the fight is over. The chief told me not to be in a hurry and to go back slowly tomorrow."
"That's good. Let's have a good rest here for a day. We don't have the convenience or cleanliness of the city, but the air here is better and the fruits and vegetables we eat are fresh."
"Where? I think it's quite nice here. There are green mountains and green waters everywhere. It makes you feel comfortable and relaxed just looking at it."
After the two of them chatted for a while, the family sat down and talked about Xiang Jin's family next door.
"That child used to be quiet and silent, but at critical moments she was very capable of taking charge. You don't know that she was in charge of everything today. Whatever she said, Yang Juyun and her daughter would
What did you hear? It didn't even allow the group of people from Lao Xiang's family to take any advantage.
The old Xiang family member wanted to keep her by his side, so Yang Juyun rushed in front of Xiang Hai and almost fought him to death, but the child just finished a tooth of watermelon slowly, and then stopped.
Without haste, I refuted them in just a few words so that they didn't dare to think about it again. I wish I could just take a big stick and drive them out to follow Yang Juyun."
"Why does the old Xiang family want to keep that girl with them?" The old man took a breath and asked with a frown.
The old lady said, "Why else? That girl Xiang Jin is already 12 this year, and she will be 13 this time next year. Next year she will graduate from the third grade of junior high school. I heard that girl's grades are not good, but
That girl is good-looking and tall.
People from Lao Xiang’s family must have had the idea that if she graduates from junior high school next year and fails to pass the technical secondary school exam, they will make her work outside to make money.”
"They actually have such thoughts?" The old man looked very disgusted and looked down upon the people of the old Xiang family.
"Old Xiang's family didn't have that intention at first, and everyone guessed that the person who had this intention was Xiang Jiao, because it was she who made the suggestion, and then they pulled Xiang Hai into the next room to talk.
I don’t know what I said, but when Xiang Hai came out, he changed his words and said that he wanted to keep Xiang Jin by his side.
I heard that a cousin from Xiang Jiao's family worked outside because of her good looks. She was attracted by a boss who was a foreman, and now she is with that boss. It is said that she even gave birth to an illegitimate child for that boss.
, the boss also gave the couple a large amount of living expenses and alimony every month.
Xiang Jiao is so fond of exploiting people and taking advantage of others, so she inevitably doesn't want to make a lot of money through Xiang Jin in the future, so she encourages Xiang Hai to insist on keeping Xiang Jin.
You know that her calculations were good, but Xiang Jin was not a child who could be manipulated at all, so she grasped one thing, that is, Xiang Hai's bigamy and the matter of having a child.
She also threatened Xiang Hai, saying that his failure to raise the two sisters was tantamount to abandonment, and also threatened Xiang and his wife with child abuse, saying that if she offended her, she would sue them and make them all go to jail.
go.
The people of the Lao Xiang family were shocked, and then they dared to keep her by their side. Then they directly nodded and asked them to follow Yang Juyun. Then she pursued the victory and forced the people of the Lao Xiang family to sever ties with them.
It was said that the two sisters should not be raised by their families in the future, but the old couple Xiang Hai and Xiang Kui should not use blood ties to bind them to fulfill their filial piety and provide for them until the end of their lives.
Naturally, Mrs. Zhang didn't want to do it, but she gave Mrs. Zhang a good slap (cua), and Mrs. Zhang was reluctant. In the end, she forced Lao Xiang's family to pay more than 3,000 yuan.
The money was said to be compensation for her mother's care for Mr. and Mrs. Xiang and their daughter, Xiang, for more than ten years.
Naturally, Mrs. Zhang refused. Not only Mrs. Zhang refused, but also the rest of Lao Xiang's family. It was only natural for a daughter-in-law to take care of her parents-in-law and sister-in-law, so why should she be given money?
?
Then Xiang Jin said that it is right for a daughter-in-law to take care of her parents-in-law and sister-in-law, and it is indeed a matter of course. However, the premise of such care is that the relationship between Xiang Hai and her mother must be based on loyalty to each other.
But Xiang Hai had an affair with Sun Shuiyun more than ten years ago and gave birth to a child outside. All the money he earned outside was spent on Sun Shuiyun and her illegitimate child. He didn't get a penny back, and he had to bear even one cent of the responsibility for the family.
Her mother has no loyalty at all, only deception and exploitation, and it has been like this all these years.
Then, why should her mother take care of his parents and sister? Therefore, the money must be compensated. If not compensated, then they are not allowed to sign the certificate, and then they will go to the court to decide who will suffer at that time.
?
Lao Xiang's family was afraid that it would involve more and be more disadvantageous to them, so they had no choice but to agree. Finally, Xiang Hai had to ride Xu Zhibin's motorcycle in the bright sun to go to Xiangshang Bank to withdraw money.
Mrs. Zhang gritted her teeth with hatred towards the three of them and yelled at them to get out of their house immediately after taking the money. Xiang Nan said that she didn't care to stay at Lao Xiang's house for a while longer.
Then the three mothers packed their things while waiting for Xiang Hai to get the money. Then, with the help of their neighbors, they temporarily put them at Liao Dongmei's house next door, saying that they would go to town to rent a room tomorrow.
house, and then built two more rooms in the bay.
The old Xiang family also arrogantly asked them to change their surname. They might not be named Xiang anymore. Xiang Nan said that she didn't care about taking their surname. She would take her mother's surname from now on, but
Xiang Jin said that her surname was not that of theirs, but that of their great-grandfather.
Her great-grandfather's surname was Xiang, but Xiang Kui's original surname was not Xiang. He was brought here as a child, and Mrs. Zhang was married to a member of the Bai family. Why should she not let them have the surname Xiang?
Furthermore, the few authentic families with the surname Xiang in this bay didn’t admit their surname was Xiang, so why shouldn’t they be allowed to have the surname Xiang?
If she wants to have a surname of Xiang, she must have a surname of Xiang. She will have to have a surname of Xiang for the rest of her life! If they don't want to have the same surname as her, then they can change it themselves! Change it back to Xiang Kui's original surname.
That old woman Zhang was so angry that she almost died again!"
