Chapter 294 Mother in a patriarchal family (32)
Zhao Li proudly introduced her little granddaughter to everyone, and also emphasized that her little granddaughter is now in a bilingual kindergarten and can already speak English, which is very good.
Bingyan raised her head. She also felt that she was very powerful. She already knew many English words and simple greetings.
Of course, she didn't know that all she knew were simple things, because her teacher praised her, her mother said she was great, and her third aunt, a college student studying foreign languages in the capital, also thought she spoke extremely well.
So many people affirm her, so she must be great and wonderful.
As long as she keeps working hard, she will get better and better.
Bingyan has been in her mother's store since she could crawl and talk, watching how the sisters and aunts in the store sell things, so she doesn't have any social fears at all.
When he saw the grandmothers, he greeted them generously and took out candies from the small schoolbag he was carrying to share.
Old ladies like generous children, and they were very happy to see her like this. However, when they heard her surname was Su, they asked: "Why is Yanyan's surname Su? Isn't your father's surname Lu?"
"Yes, Tangtang's man's surname is Lu. I remember that Tangtang was very proud when he brought him back that year. Walking beside Tangtang, he was tall, handsome, and full of tendons. I heard he was a policeman."
"You don't need to hear that the police are very kind to Tangtang. When they saw the water on the road, they didn't want to let his wife walk and held her in his arms."
"Yes, Tangtang's uncle and aunt were also very well-behaved in front of him. I said it was right for Tangtang to break up with that Zhou family child. How could he have met such a good man if he hadn't broken up."
"Yes, Tangtang's mother, you don't go out often. You don't know that the Zhou family is in bad luck. His son has never come back since he married his wife. Hong Bin's mother even went to S City to look for her son. They went there for two or three days and were driven back. I heard that their daughter-in-law didn't want to see them.
It was all retribution. When she called Tangtang in the village, she didn't expect that one day she would be disliked by her daughter-in-law. "
"The two elders are now living with their daughter and son-in-law. It is also because his family has not given up on educating their daughter, so the daughter is now promising and filial and raising the two elders. Otherwise, it would be miserable."
"Yes, that girl from the Xie family went to City C to do business and doesn't come back often. The last time she came back was when her younger brother and sister were admitted to college. However, I heard that her second aunt heard that her son was admitted to college. Now that I'm in college, I have to come and pay for it. It's another bad debt..."
The old ladies talked about other people from Su Tang and her husband, which made Zhao Li really relieved.
She wanted to take her granddaughter to catch crabs by the river and fry them for her when she came back.
But I found that my hands were suddenly empty. I took a look and saw that my granddaughter was sitting among the old ladies, holding a large handful of melon seeds in her hand. When she saw that an old lady had few melon seeds in her hand, she put it away.
He had a pair of big eyes and sparkling eyes. Although he didn't understand, he was very interested and seemed to have forgotten about catching crabs.
Zhao Li felt funny when she saw her granddaughter like this, and thought of her daughter Su Tang. When Su Tang was a child, she also liked to get into the crowd of old ladies and listen to the stories told by them.
When I got home, I had to tell her that no other grandmother was as fierce as hers.
Of course, those people would be as cruel to their grandchildren and their wives as they were to their mothers-in-law. They are kind-hearted now just because their daughters have nothing to do with them. Zhao Li waved to her granddaughter and asked her to come out. Although Bingyan wanted to hear something else, she felt that grandma was more important, so she ran out. As soon as Bingyan moved, the old ladies turned their attention to Bingyan. Who suddenly asked: "Yes, Yanyan, why is your surname Su?"
"Didn't I say that when I give birth to a son, my surname is Su, and I will break the pot for you in the future?"
"Break the basin? I can also break the basin. Grandma, I will break one for you and let you hear the sound!" Su Bingyan thought that the person who asked the question wanted to hear the sound of the basin being broken, so she immediately asked her grandmother to take her back to find the basin.
The crowd suddenly fell silent. Zhao Li picked up her eager granddaughter and said to everyone: "Tong Yan Wuji, Tong Yan Wuji, she is only three and a half years old, she doesn't understand anything."
"I understand, I am very good. Our teacher praises me every day. Isn't it just breaking the basin? I can do it as soon as I learn it." At home, her mother won't let her break the chopsticks. She will wash the chopsticks herself if she throws them. She also wants to hear the throwing. What does the basin sound like?
But before she finished speaking, grandma covered her mouth. At this time, someone asked her again: "Yanyan, is your mother doing a big business? She hasn't been back for four or five years. She must have made a lot of money." Already?"
Su Bingyan was still covered by her grandmother and couldn't answer. She heard her grandmother say: "Wherever I can make a lot of money, I just sell clothes and make ends meet. But as long as I can have enough food, that's enough. I don't expect too much." ”
"Oh, Tangtang is capable. It's you, the mother, who has belittled her. But, even if Tangtang doesn't make any money, I heard that her family owns two buildings and a large piece of land that has just been developed recently. Tangtang is lucky to be able to live a lifetime of food and clothing by collecting rent. It's a pity that her husband died early, and now only Yanyan is left. Yanyan will not have a brother to help her in the future, so her mother-in-law will not leave those things to her. "
"Definitely not. I heard that people there are very patriarchal. Besides, Tangtang married into such a family and was not from the right family. She must have suffered a lot. Like her cousin, when she was at home She is very squeamish, and once she gets married, she becomes an old woman, and even if she goes back to her parents’ home, she will be criticized.”
The old ladies talked and encouraged Bingyan to go back and ask her grandma for more money and a house, otherwise she would suffer losses in the future.
Bingyan was confused when he heard this, but instinctively felt that these old ladies were bad.
Zhao Li looked unconvinced when she was carried away by her grandma. Zhao Li put down her hand and found that her granddaughter's mouth was pouting so much that she was in a bad mood.
"Why aren't Yanyan happy? Grandma is going to take you to catch crabs soon. The little crabs are wrapped in flour and fried. They are so delicious."
Listening to grandma's description, Bingyan couldn't help but swallow her saliva and said, "They were talking bad about my mother just now. Why did grandma cover my mouth?"
"No, they are joking." Zhao Li pretended to be peaceful.
Although she has been supported by her daughter over the years, she is not as weak as before, but people's tempers are not easy to change. She is still not good at arguing with others. She knows that she can't defeat others, so she usually goes out as little as possible.
Rather than arguing with them, she prefers to make more clothes and take more orders. Now that the tourism industry is developed here, she has started making ethnic costumes and the business is good. Nothing is as important as the business.
I didn't know clearly just now, but I also knew that they wouldn't believe that the in-laws were very kind to their daughter, and they wouldn't believe that the in-laws wanted their granddaughter's surname to be Su.
Since you don't believe it, there's no need to waste your breath. Bingyan doesn't come back often anyway, so there's no need to argue clearly.
Moreover, she didn't want to waste the time she spent with her granddaughter on these things.
