When the two of them were lying on the bed at night, Yan Chen turned to his side and propped his head and asked Xiang Jin, "What were you talking about with your grandparents this afternoon? Are you chatting so enthusiastically?"
Xiang Jin said, "It's nothing, mainly just some people and things in my hometown."
"Oh?! Tell me!"
Xiang Jin then turned sideways to face him, "First of all, Yang Juyun, who wanted a son, was pregnant again. After her grandparents, uncle, and aunt learned about this, they ran to persuade her not to give birth. After all, she was also pregnant.
She is 46 or 7 years old. She belongs to the category of advanced maternal age. It is said that she is so dangerous.
Yang Juyun couldn't stop, but she wanted to give birth. Unexpectedly, when the child was seven or eight months pregnant, the two of them had a seizure without knowing it and ran to have a B-ultrasound to identify the gender of the fetus. Well, this identification caused problems.
When they arrived, it turned out to be a girl, and they didn't want it, because the previous pregnancy was a girl. If Yang Juyun added this pregnancy, she would have given birth to a total of four girls, so she would naturally be unhappy.
Then she went for induction surgery. However, she usually didn't control her mouth and ate all kinds of food. As a result, she made herself fat and also fed the fetus to a very big size. After the induction injection, the fetus couldn't come down for a long time, and she
Her stomach hurt again, and in the end it was said that she had to crush the fetus in her stomach to get it out.
Hey, when I heard what my grandparents were saying, I couldn't help but shudder. You said it was so cruel and terrifying. However, after all that tossing, she almost died on the operating table.
, the doctor also said that if she doesn’t have a good environment to support her later, she won’t even be able to live to be 60 years old. She is now very deficient in health.”
Yan Chen stretched out his arms and hugged her and said, "Don't be afraid, we won't do that. We will have whatever we conceive. My husband doesn't have that kind of mentality of favoring boys over girls."
Xiang Jin hugged him and said, "I know, do you know? It is said that her relationship with the man is not very good. The two of them often quarreled and fought, and even in front of the daughter she gave birth to.
The child's temperament is now submissive and very timid.
With this kind of relationship between husband and wife, I don't think she will get much good care and support in the future. What's even more outrageous is that she is so paranoid that she can't tell the difference between my grandparents, uncles and aunts, and how good they are to her.
.
After my grandparents learned that she had undergone an induced labor operation, the family hurried to the hospital to see her. Then when they saw her, they couldn't help scolding her, saying that she should not have been pregnant in the first place.
Listen to them. If you had listened to them and not given up when you first got pregnant, you wouldn't have suffered such a sin.
Then she couldn't listen to this, and then she had a big fight with my grandparents in the hospital. She even broke off the relationship between father and son and mother and son because of this matter. My grandfather gave up on the spot.
If you say harsh words, they will no longer care about her, and even if the two old ones die one day, they will not want her to pay condolences."
After Yan Chen heard this, he said, "Her temperament has indeed changed drastically?"
Xiang Jin said, "Isn't it? It's even a little unreasonable."
"What else?" Yan Chen asked again.
"Also, Aunt Liao will not stay in her hometown next year. She is going to the provincial capital to do business. She and her natal brother bought a shop near the Demonstration University at the west gate of the provincial capital. They plan to go there.
Open a barbecue restaurant.”
"Then we won't have to order the New Year pig at their house?" Yan Chen asked.
Xiang Jin said, "My brother told my aunt that next year we will raise a few pigs at home, right next to the fruits and vegetables."
"That's a good idea!"
Xiang Jin said, "That's right. Then we don't have to worry about the pig weeding, and we don't have to run to Xiangjiagou anymore. Oh, by the way, Old Man Xiang is dying too. It is said that he is dying."
He has been sick all winter. Ever since he got sick, he has been lying in bed every day and has never gotten out of bed. The doctor said that if he is okay, he will see if he can survive this year. If not, it will be at the end of the year.
I heard that during his illness, Xiang Hai and Xiang Tao brothers only went back to see him once. Each of them dropped two to three hundred yuan and then returned to the county town. They never came back again, even if
It was Mrs. Zhang who called them over and over again, asking them to go home and visit their father, but both of them refused to reply. For this reason, Mrs. Zhang shed a lot of tears."
Yan Chen asked, "None of their two daughters went back to visit them?"
Xiang Jin shook his head, "No, Xiang Yan has never come back since her scandal was exposed that year. She has never called or written to her family. She has not heard from her for so many years.
None.
After Xiang Jiao died and Xu Heng died, she never reborn. After her husband Xu Zhibin got romantically involved with a widow there, her life in the Xu family became more and more difficult. It is said that she also developed a brain disorder later on.
He has mental problems. He ran away like crazy in the first half of this year and has never been seen again. Now he is considered a missing person.
Mrs. Zhang and Mr. Xiang have been resting on their laurels because they have not been engaged in production. Now they are sitting on their laurels. It is said that the pension they received after Xiang Tao's death is almost the same now. If this is the case,
Once Old Man Xiang died, and her two precious sons ignored her, her consequences would be even worse than Old Man Xiang.
You see, this is the reason why they didn't know how to behave and raise their children before. If they had been nice to Yang Juyun before and didn't treat others like cattle or horses, or when Xiang Hai filed for divorce from Yang Juyun, they would have stood up.
As for Yang Juyun, they won't be in this situation when they get older.
At that time, I thought that Sun Shuiyun had given birth to two sons for Lao Xiang's family. The family was beautiful and he also opened a barber shop in the county. He disliked Yang Juyun and her two daughters. Now Sun Shuiyun does not
To be filial to them as they imagined and expected, even Xiang Hai is being disobedient and unfilial to them."
Yan Chen said, "This means that poor people must be hateful."
Xiang Jin nodded, and then said conclusively, "So, our children must be educated well in the future. In addition to educating them to be broad-minded, we must also educate them to be kind and grateful, and teach them more about how to behave.
Of course, we parents must also teach them by words and deeds to establish a correct outlook on life and values."
Hearing this, Yan Chen stared at her and asked, "Do you have anything to say to me?"
The corners of Xiang Jin's lips curled up, and then his hands wrapped around his neck, "My husband is so smart!"
Yan Chen raised his eyebrows, "Huh?!"
Xiang Jin drawled out and said coquettishly to him, "Husband, my grandfather came to BJ for a meeting and mentioned something to me before. He asked me if we could invite your dad over when we celebrate the Spring Festival here this year. Don't worry.
Let him be alone in the provincial capital?"
Yan Chen's brows frowned slightly, and without saying a word, Xiang Jin continued, "Although grandpa usually dislikes him, doesn't let him enter the courtyard, and never sees him, but I can tell
, Grandpa actually still misses him a lot. After all, no matter how he disappoints him, he is still his biological son.
Moreover, my grandfather's parents had passed away long ago in his life, and he had no biological brothers or sisters. He only had two children, a son and a daughter. His grandmother died early, and he was always in the army, so he was very concerned about his family and his family.
While he was particularly fond of family ties, he felt somewhat guilty towards his aunt and father, thinking that it was because he paid too little attention to and disciplined them, which was why dad made mistakes later.
I can also hear from his words that he also feels guilty towards his grandparents, our mother and you. In fact, I know that I am not qualified to persuade you in this regard. I can also
I understand your conflicts, pain and discomfort.
Husband, let me advise you. In fact, I feel very sad because I don’t want to bring up the scar in my husband’s heart, and I don’t want to see him sad and unhappy.” After saying that, Xiang Jin hugged him tighter and lowered her head.
It entered the crook of his neck.
Yan Chen also hugged her tightly, "I do hate him very much, but no matter how much I hate him, he is my father after all. It's not that I don't know what grandpa is thinking, so I can't really just ignore him."
Him, ignore him.
But it was impossible for me to get closer to him. From the day my mother passed away, it was impossible for me to get close to him anymore.
I have no objection to inviting him to come to Beijing to celebrate the New Year, but we must also consider the feelings of my husband and grandmother. I'm afraid that the two old people will be unhappy after he comes."
Xiang Jin said, "Don't worry about this. Grandpa and grandma took the initiative to tell me before, saying that if it is convenient, I would advise you to call your dad occasionally. You can also call him during the holidays.
Call me to come and reunite with us.
They said that over the years, they saw that the life he lived with that woman was not satisfactory, and now he was divorced from that woman. The hatred in their hearts when she saw that the woman would never have a descendant of her own in her life.
The interest was reduced a bit.
They said they wouldn't pay much attention to him if he came, but they wouldn't object to him coming to celebrate the holidays with us."
After Yan Chen was silent for a while, he said, "Okay, I agree with him coming to Beijing to celebrate the New Year, but I won't make this call to him. You can call him."
Xiang Jin said, "Okay, I'll fight him. Oh, by the way, there's something else I want to tell you."
"Well, you said?"
"Look, my grandparents and grandparents have been here at BJ for more than a month, and they haven't been anywhere yet. They have always been at home to take care of me. I just thought that they can't hang around me all the time. They
They also need to have some leisure and entertainment of their own, so I suggested that they go to some nearby attractions on weekends to have a look and experience."
Yan Chen said, "Okay, then I will stay with you at home, and we can live a good life as two of us. We haven't been alone together for a long time."
Xiang Jin said, "How long can it be? Isn't it just over a month?"
Yan Chen said, "But I just feel like it's been a long time," and then she let go of her, laid her down on the bed, and then moved toward her.
Xiang Jin pushed him and reminded him carefully, "Oh, belly, belly, please stop pressing my belly."
Yan Chen stared at her and said, "Don't worry, it won't happen." After that, he lowered his head and kissed her.
After the two kissed for a while, Xiang Jin clearly felt his strangeness and heat, so she held his head and asked, "Think about it?!"
Yan Chen stared at her and responded, "Yeah!"
Xiang Jin pushed him down on the bed, then leaned on him, "I'll help you," and then she took the initiative to kiss him...
When Xiang Jin woke up leisurely the next day, she found that Yan Chen was already up. Just when she was holding the quilt and about to turn over and lie on the bed for a while, Yan Chen walked in from the outside.
"woke up?!"
She nodded slightly, "Well, what time is it now?"
Yan Chen said, "It's past nine o'clock."
"It's already past nine o'clock?!" Xiang Jin was surprised.
Yan Chen walked to the bed, then put his hands on both sides of her, lying slightly on her back and staring at her and said, "Well, do you want to get up? I'll warm up the milk for you."
Xiang Jin said, "Wait a while, I have to take it easy on the bed."
The corners of Yan Chen's lips curled up, "Our Mrs. Yan was very tired last night. Wife, thank you for your hard work. Get up later and my husband will make it up to you."
Xiang Jin asked, "What can you compensate me for?!"
Yan Chen said, "My husband will take you outside for a walk later. Let's go shopping."
Xiang Jin said, "But I don't have anything to buy? Do you want to buy something?"
Yan Chen said, "I don't have anything to buy, but I want to buy it for you. I designed and customized a set of jewelry before. It's ready. Let's go get it back today."
Xiang Jin stretched out her hand and circled his neck, "Why do you want to give me jewelry again?"
Yan Chen said, "Well, I want to give it to you. I will give you several pieces of jewelry every year from now on."
"How many models do you give away every year?" Xiang Jin's eyes narrowed with a smile, and then he joked, "Then when I get old in the future, I can open a jewelry store directly."
Yan Chen said, "That's not allowed. You are not allowed to sell the things I give you or give them away."
Xiang Jin asked, "Then what should I do? If you don't bring something with you in life, you won't take it with you in death. If you don't sell it or give it away, why should I keep it? Is it a family heirloom?"
Yan Chen's eyes were filled with smiles, "Well, it can be passed down to the family!"
Xiang Jin curled his lips, "Oh, so I'm just a custodian? The ultimate beneficiaries are your sons and daughters!"
The smile on Yan Chen's lips deepened, "Aren't those your children?!"
Xiang Jin was startled for a moment, then nodded, "That's right."
Yan Chen said, "When the time comes, we will establish a family rule, that is, the jewelry we pass down to them will not be sold within three generations. Anyone who dares to sell it will be an unworthy descendant. Then the other brothers and sisters can jointly fight against it.
he."
Xiang Jin said, "Then can you take care of it? What if someone is so poor that they can't put the pot in the pot and they just wait to sell the jewelry to buy rice to put it in the pot? Do you really want to bear the pain of others?"
Are you hungry?"
Yan Chen thought for a while and then said, "Then these jewels will not be distinguished by anyone. They will only be passed down to the family. Whoever is in charge will keep them for safekeeping. If anyone wants to wear them, just write an IOU. If anyone loses them,
Then the compensation will be based on the market price at that time."
Hearing his words, Xiang Jin suddenly thought of some wealthy families, such as the daughters-in-law, daughters, granddaughters, and granddaughter-in-laws of some wealthy families who needed to wear jewelry when participating in certain activities, but he couldn't find suitable ones for a while.
, just borrow it from the family.
She didn't expect that her husband would come up with such an opinion at this time, so she couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth, "Are you, an elder, really ruthless and stingy?"
Yan Chen said, "It's not that I'm heartless or stingy, but I gave these jewelry to my wife, not to a bunch of unscrupulous descendants. Besides, this is also a way for me to motivate them.
.
That is, they must understand from an early age that if they want something, they have to work hard for it on their own, instead of living on something left by their ancestors. If they lose it, they will be compensated according to the price.
Only in this way can they become successful, and only in this way can a family continue to develop and grow, and wealth can be retained and accumulated forever.
Otherwise, everyone will lose their fighting spirit and think, it's okay. Anyway, my ancestors left us a large amount of inheritance. Even if I don't do anything, I can still be popular and drink spicy food.
of."
After listening to his analysis, Xiang Jin nodded immediately, "Well, I agree with your idea, okay, let's do this from now on!"
Xiang Jin lay on the bed for a while before getting up. After she had breakfast, the two of them drove out together, and then went straight to the jewelry store to pick up the jewelry.
Yan Chen always designs customized jewelry for her in a simple and elegant style, and this time is no exception. The whole set of jewelry consists of three parts, a necklace, a bracelet, and earrings. The three pieces of jewelry are mainly made of jade and platinum.
Made.
The necklace is a drop-shaped jade pendant. The chain you made is very thin and delicate. The pendant is not just about drilling a hole in the jade and then wearing it directly with the platinum chain.
The drop-shaped jade pendant is actually wrapped in that peculiar hollow-shaped platinum, so that the whole necklace looks simple, beautiful, grand, and unique and upscale. The earrings are also of the same design, that is, the bracelet
The shapes are a little different, but they all use the same material of jade, so they look like a matching set.
Xiang Jin liked him very much as soon as she saw him, and then she praised him generously, "My husband is really talented."
Seeing that she was happy, Yan Chen unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, "As long as my Mrs. Yan likes it!"
Xiang Jin nodded her head, "Yeah, I like it, I like it!" She picked up the bracelet and put it on, then raised her arm and waved it in front of her, "Does it look good?"
Yan Chen nodded, "Yeah, it looks good! My Mrs. Yan looks good no matter what jewelry she wears."
Xiang Jin's eyes narrowed with a smile, and then she closed the jewelry box and put it away, "Thank you, Mr. Yan!"
Yan Chen smiled slightly and took out his bank card to pay.
After taking out the jewelry, Xiang Jin glanced at the counter again, and Yan Chen asked, "Why, do you want a gold bracelet?"
Xiang Jin said, "I just want to see if there are any styles suitable for grandma and grandma to wear, and buy one for each of them."
Yan Chen nodded, "Yeah, sure!"
After hearing this, the salesperson walked aside and introduced to them, "Mr. Yan, Mrs. Yan, we have some jewelry styles suitable for middle-aged and elderly people. You two can come over here and take a look," she said
Then she took out a few gold bracelets from the counter.
The two of them walked over and saw that what she took out were one or two gold bracelets engraved with dragons, winds, and complicated patterns, so Xiang Jin said, "Is there something simple and low-key that can be used?"
With some patterns, but not so complicated, and preferably solid gold, we don’t want hollow ones like this, either?”
After hearing her request, the other party nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, it's over here. Please move over here."
Xiang Jin and Yan Chen moved to the counter on the other side, and then Xiang Jin took a fancy to a gold bracelet from Xie Wen Liuxing.
"Which one can you take out for us and take a look at?"
"Oh, okay, you two have really good taste. This bracelet is a hot item in our store. Many customers prefer this style. This style is simple and elegant, and most importantly, it is made of solid gold,"
The other party looked in the direction of her finger, then immediately agreed, and then took out the bracelet from the counter.
Xiang Jin felt heavy when she took it in her hand. Then she picked it up and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, she saw the pure gold symbol on the inner wall. Then she handed it to Yan Chen to look at.
And she asked the salesperson, "How many grams does this bracelet weigh?"
The salesperson said it was not very heavy, weighing more than fifty grams.
Xiang Jin nodded, and then asked, "What is the price of gold today?"
The other party told them how much it cost. After Yan Chen saw it, he asked Xiang Jin, "Which one should you choose? Are the two identical?"
Xiang Jin looked at the counter and found that there was no other model that he liked, so he nodded, "Well, okay, just this one, I think the others seem to be more complicated."
Yan Chen said to the salesperson, "That pair."
"Oh, okay!" When the salesperson heard what they said, his face burst into laughter. Then he quickly took out another one from the counter, weighed it again in front of them, and then issued the invoice.
, package those.
When the two came out of the jewelry store, Yan Chen asked her, "Where do you want to go next?"
Xiang Jin shook his head, "No, do you have somewhere you want to go?"
Yan Chen shook his head and said, "No, then we will go back?"
Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, let's go back!"
When the two went back, several elders came back and started preparing lunch.
"Why didn't you walk outside more?" Xiang Jin asked.
Grandma Mo smiled and said, "We went to Prince Gong's Mansion for a walk, and when we came out, we saw that the time was almost up, so we came back, but we didn't see you two when we came back. We were just about to call you, but we didn't expect
You will be back."
Xiang Jin said, "We also went out for a while."
A few people nodded, and then informed them of the lunch menu, and then asked them what else they wanted to eat, and would they cook it for them?
Xiang Jin and the others shook their heads, and then said they would eat whatever they cooked.
After lunch, Xiang Jin took out the two gold bracelets and handed them to the two grandmothers. After they saw it, they said, "What are you doing? You bought us jewelry?"
Xiang Jin's grandfather and Yan Chen's grandfather were also surprised.
Xiang Jin nodded, "Ah, at that time we thought this bracelet would be more suitable for you to wear, so we bought one for each of you. I also have one. Now, Yan Chen gave it to me, and there is also a necklace.
It matches a pair of earrings, doesn't it look good?" Xiang Jin raised his arm and showed it to them with a proud look on his face.
After several elders saw it, they all laughed and nodded frequently, "Well, it looks good!"
Xiang Jin looked at the bracelet more and more like it, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, "I think it looks good too!"
Then her grandma said, "Didn't the bracelet you bought for us cost a lot of money?"
Xiang Jin said, "It's not much money, just a few thousand yuan per person."
Grandma Mo asked, "What is the price of gold today?"
Xiang Jin said, "Ninety yuan per gram. Your bracelet only weighs over fifty grams and doesn't weigh much, so it didn't cost much."
Her grandma said, "That still cost five or six thousand."
Xiang Jin said, "It's okay, I'll give you flowers, it's worth it!"
After hearing this, several elders felt very sad in their hearts, so everyone laughed, and then the wrinkles on their faces burst into laughter.
The two old ladies immediately opened the jewelry box and put the gold bracelet on their wrists. Feeling the solid weight, the two old ladies smiled even deeper.
Looking at the bracelets they wore on their wrists, Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, it looks good! You don't usually wear other jewelry, but you still have to wear a bracelet. It should be decorated more or less, and don't be too
She's very sober. Look at the old ladies outside. Many of them wear gold and silver and lipstick. Don't you think you're like them? But when the time comes, you can still perm your hair, and then you'll look...
Younger."
The two old ladies laughed again. Xiang Jin saw that the two old ladies did not object, so she thought to herself: It seems that the two old ladies still love beauty? So she thought about waiting for her mother and aunt to arrive.
When the time came, let them accompany the two old ladies to get their hair done.
In the evening, she and Yan Chen returned to their own room, and then told Yan Chen this idea, and Yan Chen nodded and said, "Okay!"
Then Xiang Jin said, "Actually, no matter what age group, people still love beauty in their hearts."
Yan Chen nodded, and then joked, "Well, that's right, just like our Mrs. Yan, she was rather stinky when she was young."
Xiang Jin retorted, "How can I be so beautiful?"
Yan Chen looked at her jokingly and said, "No? Who has been worried about not growing taller and developing horizontally since childhood?"
Xiang Jin choked and then stopped talking. She had indeed been worried about whether she would grow taller since she was a child, but at that time she was just being unreasonable and her worries were unnecessary.
