Wang Yun came to Xiang Zhen's room and saw her lying on the court still sad, so she walked over, sat down on the edge of the bed, and then reached out to shake her, "Zhenzhen? Zhenzhen?"
Xiang Zhen ignored her, Wang Yun continued to shake, Xiang Zhen continued to ignore her.
Wang Yun suddenly became angry and pulled her over forcefully, saying, "Why do you have such a bad temper as a child? You don't listen to anyone, right?"
When Xiang Zhen saw her mother being cruel to her, she burst into tears and complained aggrievedly, "You don't even love me?"
Wang Yun's face suddenly softened, and then she stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, and said comfortingly, "Why doesn't Mom love you anymore? Mom only has one child like you. If Mom doesn't love you, who should you hurt?"
Xiang Zhen said, "But you were mean to me, and you still asked me to apologize? I was right, why should I apologize?"
Wang Yun coaxed, "I didn't hurt you, it was you who always ignored your mother. She was anxious, so she spoke to you in a harsh tone. "Okay, okay, okay, okay, this is my mother's fault. My mother apologized to you, my mother."
It won’t be like this anymore.”
"Really?" Xiang Zhen was dubious.
"Well, really," Wang Yun nodded and followed, "Mom doesn't want you to apologize to me. She wants you to show your attitude in front of your grandparents and let them know that you will never do that again.
You're talking nonsense, that's what I mean.
My daughter, when we were in the Northeast, we were just a family of three, you, your dad, and me. But now that we have returned to your dad’s hometown, there is not only our family of three here, but a big family here.
Through so many contacts, you also know what kind of people your grandparents are. They are selfish and have serious patriarchal ideas.
Xiang Jin’s mother is such a capable person, has a good temper, is filial to them, and truly cares for your sister-in-law. Sister Xiang Jin is also sensible and obedient, but why do they still insist on leaving her and leaving them
Dumped?
That's not because Xiang Jin and Xiang Jin are both girls, Xiang Xiang is a boy, and Sun Shuiyun is pregnant with a son. In addition, Sun Shuiyun also has a barbering skill and can earn money.
They feel that their daughters are not of much use. When they grow up and get married, they will belong to someone else. They feel that raising a daughter-in-law for someone else is a loss!"
Xiang Zhen said, "The eldest aunt and the younger aunt are not daughters yet. The eldest aunt has married to another family, and the younger aunt will marry to another family in the future. They are all from other families. Why don't they feel at a loss? Look at their usual routine.
He is so kind to my sister-in-law, and he always comes to her for any good things, and Xu Heng from my sister-in-law's family is also loved by them."
Wang Yun said, "That's different. Your aunt and sister-in-law are their biological children, so they will naturally feel pain. Xu Heng is a boy, so they will feel pain too."
But Xiang Jin, the two sisters, and you, your mother are all from Baijiamen, and are not related by blood to them, so the children we give birth to are separated from them by a layer, and they will naturally not feel pain, especially
Since you are both girls, they will not feel any pain.
Xiang Xiang and his unborn brother are boys, and boys will inherit the legacy of Lao Xiang's family in the future, so they will naturally feel pain."
Xiang Zhen said, "Yes, but in rural areas, isn't it preferable to leave a daughter at home, and bring a son to the house to get married? Wouldn't the relationship be renewed in the same way?"
Wang Yun said, "Your second uncle has a son himself, why do they still have a son?"
Xiang Zhen didn't say anything, and then she said dissatisfiedly, "What's the point? Grandma is too partial?"
Wang Yun said, "Your grandparents are like that. We, the two of us, are here. We have no relatives or familiar people around us, so we have to be careful and pay attention to everything."
Hearing this, Xiang Zhen's voice became softer, "Mom, are you afraid of your grandparents?"
A faint smile appeared on Wang Yun's lips, "It's not that I'm afraid, it's because I saw their attitude towards Xiang Jin and the other three. You are a girl, and I'm afraid that your father will be out to socialize one day, and then suffer the consequences.
If we can't resist the temptation and allow a woman to become pregnant with a child, then our two mothers will end up in the same fate as Xiang Jin and the other three."
Xiang Zhen said, "No, dad will not treat us like that. Besides, you are not as useless as Xiang Jin's mother. You can't even see a man!"
Seeing the disdainful look in her eyes, Wang Yun asked, "Why do I feel that you have a big opinion against Xiang Jin and that you hate her?"
Xiang Zhen lowered her eyes and murmured, "Can I not hate it? She even tried to steal my daddy, and I almost became a supernatural being?"
The most important thing is that that girl is prettier than her, her mother is so ugly, and her own mother is much prettier than that girl Yang Juyun. As a result, her and Xiang Jin's looks are completely reversed.
She seemed to be the child of that ugly Yang Juyun, while Xiang Jin seemed to be the child of her mother. Every time she saw Xiang Jin, she felt angry, very unhappy and uncomfortable.
Wang Yun said, "That was all an expedient measure made by Lao Xiang's family at the time. They wanted to have a second child and have a son, so they told the outside world that Xiang Jin was in front of your father, but they couldn't take it seriously."
Xiang Zhen said domineeringly, "That won't work either!"
Wang Yun sighed, "Strictly speaking, we still owe them. If your father didn't marry me back then, and then came back to continue living with her, the things that happened later would not have happened."
Xiang Zhen said, "Then why is it your fault? She has to blame herself. She is not good-looking and has no skills. If dad really likes her, how can he be with you again?
So, it’s because my dad doesn’t like her. Since she doesn’t like her, she needs to be separated. Why do she still occupy my dad?
So you are right, this matter is not your fault, we have nothing to owe them!"
Wang Yun thought for a while, then the corners of her mouth curled up, as if she was relieved, "Huh?"
Xiang Zhen said matter-of-factly, "It is."
Then Wang Yun asked her, "Are you not angry anymore?"
Xiang Zhen lowered her eyelids and nodded slightly, "Yeah!"
Then Wang Yun said, "Then go out with mom and tell your grandparents in front of them that you will never say such things again."
Xiang Zhen lost her temper and became a little unhappy, "Why, if I go to express my position, it means that I have given in to Xiang Xiang. I won't go! I hate him as much as I hate Xiang Jin. I drag him with him in one day."
It's like 250,000 to 80,000 yuan, and I don't like it at all.
It’s hard to tell whether he is from the Lao Xiang family or not. He is a bastard without success! Don’t even think about asking me to submit to a bastard!”
Wang Yun scolded her with a face, "Are you talking nonsense again?"
Xiang Zhen glanced at her angrily and snorted coldly.
Wang Yun softened her tone again and persuaded her, "You don't care whether he is from the Lao Xiang family or not. As long as your second uncle says he is, he is, and your grandparents will recognize him. I tell you to go and follow him."
Your grandma's expression of support does not mean that she will give in to him.
We are in our hometown, so you have the right to show off to your grandparents and let them think you are a sensible and generous child.
As for your private life, your mother won't ask you to get along with him. Don't worry about that. If you don't like him, your mother doesn't like him either, even more than she likes Xiang Jin and the others.
Xiang Jin and the others simply have nothing to do with us anymore, but they are different. When we return to our hometown, we still have to live under the same roof and eat from the same pot. We always look down and don't see each other, which makes my mother feel bad.
"
Xiang Zhen hesitated.
Wang Yun pulled her and said, "Be obedient, if you show your respect to your grandma, mom will reimburse you for the corn-husking object you bought tonight, and give you five yuan more by the way."
Pocket money.”
As soon as Xiang Zhen heard that she was rich, her eyes immediately gleamed, and then she nodded vigorously, then got out of bed and put on her shoes.
Then Wang Yun pointed her aside and said, "By the way, bring the magic tool you bought for peeling corn kernels, so that your grandparents will be happier when they see it."
"Uh-huh!"
After the mother and daughter came to the main room, Mrs. Zhang had printed a lot of dumpling wrappers. When she saw her grandparents, Xiang Zhen still felt a little knotty in her heart.
Wang Yun pushed her from the side, and Xiang Zhen mustered up the courage to step forward, and then said to Old Mrs. Zhang, who still had a long face and buried her head in printing dumpling wrappers, "Master, grandma, it's my fault.
It's because I was a bit careless in what I said before. My mother just taught me a lesson, and I reflected on it myself. I really shouldn't have said that, but don't worry, I will never say that again in the future."
Mrs. Zhang didn't say anything, but she knocked the pot of her dry tobacco bag on the rocking chair to the old man twice and said, "It's not a big deal. It's understandable that you brothers and sisters occasionally quarrel, but don't quarrel too often. As the saying goes,
It’s good that everything will be fine if the family is harmonious. The whole family should still be harmonious. He is the brother and you are the sister. From now on, we must tolerate each other and don’t fall out with each other and start fighting after just one or two words!”
"Oh, I know!" Xiang Zhen responded "obediently".
Then Wang Yun went to wash her hands and started making dumplings. When she picked up a piece of stuffing with chopsticks, she couldn't help but flatter Mrs. Zhang, "Oh Mom, your stuffing is so delicious.
How do you mix it? Teach me when the time comes. I never mix the filling well every time, and they both think the dumplings I make are not delicious every time."
Mrs. Zhang has loved hearing these flattering words all her life, and the look on her face suddenly softened a lot, and she started talking about how she made the stuffing, what to put first, what to put next, and finally what to put.
What to put.
Wang Yun seemed to be listening attentively, and then made a gesture to Xiang Zhen. Xiang Zhen quickly took the corn-husking object in her hand and went forward to show her courtesy to her grandparents.
After hearing her introduce the object, both of them were very happy. Mrs. Zhang even praised her for her filial piety, and then Xiang Zhen happily ran to wash her hands and said she wanted to make dumplings.
