Chapter 125

Su Mo didn't study after she was eight years old, how could she know this, it would be difficult for Gu Xingnian to face Gu Xingnian's thirsty eyes.

Fortunately, Gu Jinnian came over, clenched his fist, and opened it in front of Gu Xingnian, palm up.

Su Mo looked over and found that what was in her hand was the candied fruit she had put on the table, covered with a small piece of oil paper, exuding a tempting sweet smell.

Gu Xingnian's thoughts moved there, swallowed, and looked up at Gu Jinnian.

"Brother, is it for Xingnian?"

Gu Jinnian nodded, and handed it to her again.

"Sweet."

"Thank you bro~"

Gu Xingnian reached out to take it, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed, his cheeks puffed up slightly, extremely cute.

"There is still on the table, eat slowly."

Gu Jinnian's seemingly inadvertent words made Gu Xingnian forget why the water turned into ice when he took it out.

Seeing this, Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

This child is really too difficult to take care of, it's like a hundred thousand reasons for walking.

……

When I returned to my natal home on the second day of junior high school, many women in the village got up early to pack their things, and brought their children and men back to their natal home for the festival.

Since the Chen family split up, Mrs. Peng went to the village head to approve the homestead with the money she shared, and built the house before the Chinese New Year, and the couple moved out.

Chen Cihai wasn't helping Chen Lihai sell those handmade items either. Although he was a real brother, Mrs. Peng thought he was black-hearted, and he didn't have the heart to put a hot face on a cold ass.

It's just that without Chen Cihai's help, the things made by Chen Lihai couldn't find buyers at all.

Mrs. Peng didn't know the way to do this, so she went to the county town to sell her things, but was arrested by the government servants patrolling the streets in the name of private business.

If it wasn't for Li Feng who arrested her, and she happened to meet Li Shi, Li Shi helped explain, she might be staying in a prison now.

Going back after running into a wall, Mrs. Peng felt regretful. Although she earned little at the beginning, she was able to see the money anyway, but now she doesn't see any money...

She went back to her natal family with a sad face to ask for advice, but after listening to her family's chatter, she blamed everything on Chen's parents, Chen's mother and Chen Cihai.

They know everything and have connections, but they are not even willing to lend a helping hand...

Chen's parents, Chen's mother, and Chen Cihai are not clear about Peng's thoughts, even if they know, it won't change anything.

They had already seen Mrs. Peng clearly, a person who couldn't figure out who was good and who was bad.

For them, the main thing is Chen Lihai.

It's my own son and younger brother, how can I just sit back and watch, but this time, I still let them toss.

When Chen Lihai had suffered from his Yue family's losses and been tricked by his Yue family, and made up his mind to let the Peng family break up with the Yue family, there was still time for them to help.

After all, if this wretched Yue family continues to communicate, Mrs. Peng will always believe that they treat the second wife badly.

Chen Lihai also didn't know what his parents and elder brother were thinking. He was usually reticent and focused on those gadgets.

And Mrs. Peng built the house in a grand manner according to the words of her natal family. These days, the money allocated has already been spent.

There was no money in the family, so she was not at ease. This time, Peng brought Chen Lihai back to her natal family because she wanted to borrow some money from her natal family to bear it first.

By the way, I asked my natal family if they knew anyone who could help sell the things Chen Lihai made.

The Peng family didn't know what the Peng family was up to. Seeing the two of them coming, the whole family came out to greet them. Peng's younger brother...Peng Zhanpeng stretched out his hand to ask Chen Lihai for a red seal.

Chen Lihai handed over the red envelope that Mrs. Peng had prepared for him, and Peng Zhanpeng opened it directly to see that there were only two pennies in it, and his face immediately fell.

"It's stingy."

Muttering to himself, Peng Zhanpeng went directly into the room and sat down without saying hello.

Peng's father and Peng's mother also looked a little unhappy, and their enthusiasm for Chen Lihai weakened a lot in an instant.

When Chen Lihai's brother-in-law opened the red seal in front of everyone, he felt a little uncomfortable. This made him feel the alienation of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and he felt even more uncomfortable.

Peng Shi didn't feel anything, she grew up in such an environment since she was a child, no matter what the little brother did, it was right.

Carrying the basket cheerfully, she followed Peng's mother into the bedroom, leaving Chen Lihai to face the room full of three aunts and eight aunts.

These people had all participated in the wedding. On that day, the Peng family asked for money temporarily, but the Chen family gave it without saying anything. It can be seen that the Chen family has a strong background, at least richer than them.

It was the first time for Chen Lihai to face such strangers, especially when they looked at them with scrutinizing and calculating eyes.

The only acquaintance, Peng's father, sat on the side and didn't help to speak, which made him restless, but helpless.

On Peng's side, after entering the house, Peng's mother frowned when she found that there were only some dried fish in her basket.

"It's New Year's Eve, do you use these things to honor your parents?"

Peng's cheeks flushed when she was told, she twisted her fingers, showing embarrassment.

"Mother, you also know that Li Hai and I have a separate family, and his elder brother is unwilling to lend a hand to help. The family's money has been spent, and there is no income..."

Mother Peng heard something was wrong, her eyes flickered, and she hurriedly interrupted Mrs. Peng.

"Of course my mother knows about your situation, but it's not easy for my mother to give birth to you and raise you, so why marry you off?
Could it be that I wanted you and your son-in-law to honor your mother, but in the end, your New Year ceremony is just outrageous, and you even complained to your mother..."

While talking, Peng's mother raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and observed Peng's through the gaps in her fingers.

"Mother, why is life so hard..."

She cried so loudly that everyone outside the house heard the movement, and one or two gossips came over one after another.

Seeing this, Peng's mother cried louder, and her movements of wiping her tears became more exaggerated.

When the others saw it, they immediately taught Peng a lesson: "This is a big Chinese New Year, why did it make your mother cry?"

"That's right, how can there be a daughter like you..."

"It's not that my aunt said you. You are filial to a man and a child. If you cry like this, you will be punished by God..."

Peng immediately felt that he was being roasted on the fire, his mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't say anything, his face was hot and red.

Chen Lihai was not good at words, so he didn't know what to do.

Peng's mother pretended to cry, thinking that it was almost done, stopped her exaggerated movements, sniffed her nose, and helped Peng's talk.

"Oh, it's inevitable for children to be ignorant. As a mother, I can't really blame the children."

"For those who celebrate Chinese New Year, everyone will just give me this face, and pretend that I didn't see it. My daughter and son-in-law will have a great future in the future. If it spreads the reputation of being unfilial, it will ruin the child..."

Mrs. Peng couldn't figure it out, what her natal family said was what she said, she was moved for a while, and she took Peng's mother's hand and began to admit her mistake.

The others are just addicted to their mouths, and they still want to curry favor with the Chen family. Mother Peng will give them the steps, and they will naturally follow them.

Only Chen Lihai finally understood that Mrs. Peng was really out of her mind.
