For a moment, Mrs. Xiao couldn't find the words to refute, and she couldn't bear to be silenced by her granddaughter, so she said harshly: "You are all cousins, why do you always hold grudges like this? There is no overnight grudge in the family." , some things have to be past, it’s boring to hold on to them all the time.”
"To you, it's not interesting; to me, Erya is not worthy of forgiveness in my whole life."
Old Mrs. Xiao couldn't keep it off her face, and no one at home came out to help her get off the stairs; she could only clap her chopsticks and stand up suddenly, "Okay! You are well-educated, so you can say the same thing."
After saying that, he walked out angrily.
Xiao Zhengning hurriedly got up and chased after her, "Mom, you haven't eaten yet. Where are you going?"
"I'm so angry, what else can I eat?" Mrs. Xiao hurried back to the house.
Xiao Zhengning stopped chasing, looked at the old lady's back and shook his head and sighed: "Mom's temper is getting worse, Sanya! Don't talk back to your mother in the future; as the old man gets older, there will always be times when he is upset. As juniors, let’s be more accommodating.”
Mr. Xiao held his chopsticks and said: "Whatever goes by, let's sit down and eat. Sanya is right. What Erya did was an attempted murder after all. Logically speaking, he did owe his life. It cannot be because Sanya is safe now." Don't worry about it. Your mother knows it, but she is unhappy in her heart and refuses to admit defeat verbally. "
"Dad, why do you say that! What if a few children want to imitate me?" Xiao Zhengning returned to his original position and sat down, deliberately lowering his voice and speaking, "Kang Kangping is already old, so we can't let them imitate him. Let’s go.”
Mr. Xiao stopped talking.
Xiao Leshi smiled and said softly: "Let's have dinner first, and then have someone bring some food to my mother's room later; she won't go hungry."
"My daughter-in-law is still sensible." Mr. Xiao had a smile on his face.
Xiao Zhengning felt relieved and had dinner with his family. After the meal, Xiao Leshi asked the kitchen to make new noodles that were easy to digest and sent them to the old lady's house. As for whether there would be any side effects from eating noodles at night, she asked do not care.
Main courtyard.
Mr. Xiao was soaking his feet and humming a tuneless tune. When the maid came in with noodles, he called out.
"My dear, come here to eat some noodles; the boss's wife specially asked someone to make them for you."
"I'm full of anger." Old Mrs. Xiao sat on the bedside angrily.
Mr. Xiao waved his servants away, and after the door was closed, he spoke slowly, "You are already a very old man, even if you feel sorry for the second child's family; but that was the choice of the second child's family, and the separation was You won’t forget the reason, will you?”
Of course, Old Mrs. Xiao has not forgotten it. As time goes by, the indignation she felt for her little granddaughter has almost disappeared.
"Isn't she living well now? How glorious it is to be granted the title of county head! Where is the second child's family? Don't you know how difficult their life is now? Sanya is too angry. Didn't they say, It's better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies! Why doesn't she understand? I'm doing this for her own good. A family can always rely on each other. Even if the elder Ya and the second Ya are useless, wouldn't it be nice for her to have an elder who loves her?"
"Why do you have to hold on to Erya's things? Besides, what's the use of holding on now; Erya has become very honest now and doesn't do anything out of the ordinary anymore. She looks very stupid. Like this It will be difficult for the girl to find her husband's family in the future, so this is her retribution."
"The second wife's life is like this. What anger does she have in her heart?"
"You only know that the second wife is not doing well. Why don't you think about it? It was the second wife who did it." Mr. Xiao snorted coldly, becoming more and more dissatisfied with the second wife. He had no ability, and he still came to say that his wife wanted benefits for them. It was a shame. Then, "If they were peaceful and peaceful, there would be no separation of the family. Can the boss and his family forget about their family when they become rich? Now they can also come to the capital, do you believe it?"
Old Mrs. Xiao Xin, it was Xin that made her angry when she found out that the second son and his family could not come to the capital to live a good life in a big house.
"I have been telling you so much, but you have turned a deaf ear; the good life of the boss and his family is not the result of the boss, but remember, it is the credit of Sanya." Mr. Xiao said seriously: "What we enjoy now is also Sanya. Ya's blessing, since you enjoy Sanya's blessing, don't talk too much; say some disgusting words. You know clearly that Sanya doesn't like the eldest daughter of the second wife, Erya, but you still mention it repeatedly, Sanya will only make it worse. Sick of them."
"Then what can I do? I can't help it!" Seeing that her eldest son's family had good food and drink every day, had meat and wealth, and lived a comfortable life; she went to the countryside where her younger son's family had a simple meal, just to have a meal of meat. You have to save a lot of money for a month.
The gap was too big, and she felt more and more uncomfortable.
Mr. Xiao sneered, "You have to bear it if you can't help it. Sanya is still young after all, so we have separated them all these years; don't mention the second house in front of Sanya. After a few years, Sanya will forget about these things." Now. When the time comes, let her help the second bedroom, can she refuse?"
Mrs. Xiao was silent.
After a while, she said, "Is this useful? Sanya is too vindictive."
"No matter how good your memory is, how many years can you hold grudges? What happened between you and your natal brother, how much do you still hate him now?" Mr. Xiao asked back.
Old Mrs. Xiao was speechless. Decades had passed since the incident between her and her natal brother, and she still could not forgive her. But if her natal family came to reconcile, she would not be unable to reconcile, but could she let go of those grudges? That's all, and these grudges are worthless in the face of interests.
"You're right, let's see again in a few years."
Mr. Xiao smiled, not being too stubborn; after a few years, her thoughts should have faded away. If not, Sanya and Kang Kangping would have become officials.
Now that the grandchildren have become successful, the old wife must not make trouble anymore; otherwise, not only will she not be able to help the second child's family, but she will also destroy the eldest family.
The two old people had their own thoughts, and the old lady really restrained herself from then on; even Xiao Leshi and Xiao Zhengning didn't have time to take action, which made the couple feel that their ears were quiet, they were in a better mood, and they were wary of whether the old lady was brewing something. Big waves.
Waiting and waiting, half a month passed, but still no movement from the old lady.
Xiao Leshi pulled her husband and asked, "How come Mother has calmed down and stopped making trouble?"
Being silent is even scarier; but half a month has passed and there is still no action, not even a word for the second wife, which is even more strange.
Xiao Zhengning smiled, took his wife's hand, and said jokingly, "Why don't you just calm down, mother? She's just thinking about other things."
"You're still talking about me, haven't you been afraid of the same thing for the past half month?" Xiao Leshi spurned him, and felt heavy in his heart after speaking, "There has been no movement for so long, don't really give us a big fight ;Tell me what the second brother and sister want to do! If their family is not going well, will it cause trouble in our family too? "
