Chapter 298 Mother in a patriarchal family (36)
Su Yue carried her niece into the main room. Even though she ordered to wait, the room was a little dark. There was a frame hanging above the straw stool next to the sofa in the main room.
Su Yue put her niece down, carried the high stool, stepped on the stool, took out some snacks from the box, and changed the TV channel from the Anti-Japanese War drama to the recently broadcast The Adventures of Jackie Chan.
Grandma Su looked at Bingyan without blinking. This was her great-granddaughter.
Originally, she had many grandchildren, including great-grandchildren and great-grandchildren, so it should not be unusual.
But Bingyan is different. Of all the children in the family, Su Tang is the most promising. I heard that my granddaughter Su Tang is doing a prosperous clothing business in S City.
Many people lined up to buy Su Tang's cheongsam.
Su Tang not only owns crafts and a shop, but also has a building and land left by her husband. Bingyan has had no worries about food and clothing since she was born.
Grandma Su thought that her grandson-in-law had died early, and for a daughter like Bingyan, those things must belong to Bingyan.
She heard from her younger son that Bingyan went to an international bilingual kindergarten there, and the friends she met were from rich and wealthy families, and they could already speak foreign languages at a young age.
If Grandma Su's generous family background is not enough to impress her, then the little Bingyan, who is only three and a half years old, can already speak two languages, really surprises Grandma Su.
What she admired most in her life were scholars. It was a pity that her granddaughters did not like to study. Su Tang's college admission notice was burned by her. The only person in her family who was admitted to college was her youngest son Su Zhen. It was a pity that Su Zhen hated her to the core.
Grandma Su also knows that she is very partial. Although she regrets it now, she still hopes that her eldest son will find his conscience and take her and her wife back.
Grandma Su was heartbroken when she knew that her eldest son was unwilling to pay and had delayed her condition. In the end, her younger son, who had always been neglectful, saved her.
But no matter what, he was still her eldest son, the eldest son she had loved for more than forty years.
She is getting older now and doesn't have many good years to live, so she just wants to live a peaceful life in her last few years.
My wife is right, as long as the demolition money is in hand, the eldest son and granddaughter will become filial sons and grandsons.
Fortunately, she was always on guard against others, and kept a lot of the family's money in her hands, so her eldest daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law did not get a single bit of it.
Grandma Su may have let go of her prejudice against her younger son, or maybe Bingyan has a lot of knowledge at a young age that makes her awed, and she can actually be said to be kind to Bingyan.
She knew she was sloppy now, so she didn't speak, and the eyes on her old face kept staring at her.
Bingyan took the snacks, but didn't eat them himself.
She opened the shrimp crackers and fed them to her fourth aunt first, then walked to her great-grandmother, looking at her with tears in her eyes, tilted her head and asked, "Grandma, do you want some shrimp crackers?"
Grandma Su shook her head and said she didn't want to eat.
She thought that this little baby would be frightened by her current state.
Even her son and grandson don't want to see her.
Grandma Su had the surgery in March. It has been more than half a year now and she can already walk a few steps on crutches.
Although it was painful to move, she knew that if she was really disabled, she would really have no one to rely on.
Seeing her great-grandma shaking her head, Su Bingyan put the shrimp crackers in her mouth. She took her great-grandma's hand. The child's hand was so soft that Grandma Su didn't dare to move, for fear that her own hands would be as stiff and rough as dry branches. It hurts the child. "Grandma, your hands are just like the branches that Dabai brought me today. They are dry and hard." Bingyan said while touching them.
Grandma's hands were not as soft or as warm as those of grandma and grandma. It turns out that this is what sick people's hands look like.
Bingyan thought in confusion. She looked at the adventures of Jackie Chan without blinking at her fourth aunt, while her great-grandmother only looked at her.
I thought my grandma must like her, so she chatted beside her.
Listening to Bingyan's words, Grandma Su seemed to see Su Tang. When Su Tang was born, there were only three children in the family. All three children were pink and cute, and she was also surprised for a while.
At that time, we were still in the old house, everyone worked together, and she took care of the grandchildren. Su Tang was also like this, very talkative.
Later, for some reason, the second child's family seemed to become more and more unpleasant and disappointing. The only grandchildren in her eyes were the first family.
Grandma Su regretted it. She should not have stopped Su Tang from going to college, nor should she have let Su Qiao become a stepmother in order to find a wife for her eldest grandson.
It is even more inappropriate to marry off the eldest granddaughter to the town just for the small money. The eldest granddaughter is so good, she is only a few years older than Su Tang, and she is so smart and lively at home.
When I came to see her a few days ago, she looked very old. Standing next to the second daughter-in-law, she seemed to be older than the second daughter-in-law.
At that time, Grandma Su wanted to tell her eldest granddaughter, "ignore your mother, don't listen to her and move everything home, and don't let your mother-in-law do whatever she says. The worst is possible divorce."
But she couldn't tell.
Looking at Bingyan at this time, she felt that Bingyan would definitely be as successful as Su Tang when he grew up. Not every child over three years old could be so good at talking.
Dinner was eaten in the courtyard. A big lamp was hung outside the house, and the courtyard was as bright as day.
On the table were chicken cooked by Su Dahai, fried crabs fried by Zhao Li, and bacon.
Bingyan took a bite of the bacon, which was so salty that she drank a lot of water. Then she only ate chicken and small crabs.
She felt that the chicken from her grandma’s house was different from the one her grandma took her to buy at the vegetable market. The chicken from her grandma’s house was more delicious and she must take it home.
Su Yue was busy at the store and went back after dinner. Su Tang, Su Qiao and Bing Yan slept in the same room.
Su Tang was packing her things, and Bingyan was outside talking to her great-grandparents. Such a young child didn't know why she talked so much.
Su Tang made the bed and went out to pour hot water to wash her face, when she happened to hear her daughter telling the story of the Monkey King to some of her elders.
I only heard her say: "Grandma, grandpa, great-grandma, great-grandpa, you know the Monkey King, the Monkey King, is so powerful. He turns out to be a monkey. The monkey's English name is..."
Everyone thinks Bingyan is very awesome. He is only just over three years old. He can not only speak English, tell stories, but also sing English songs.
In the end, Grandpa Su couldn't hold on any longer and the family dispersed. When Grandpa Su was washing his wife's feet, he said to Grandma Su: "I thought the second brother had no future, but now I discovered that he is the best at teaching children. Tangtang and the others are capable, and Tangtang’s children are also smart. The baby, who is just over three years old, is named Su, and he is also a child of our old Su family..."
Su Dahai heard it outside the house, and his eyes immediately turned red. He never thought that he would hear his old father praising him in his lifetime.
Everything depends on the blessing of children.
