The Happiness of Rebirth in the 80s

Chapter 38

After the meal, Gao Aimin took a watermelon and went to his parents. After the last lesson, Gao's mother is obviously a lot more honest now. Seeing their family of three coming, she didn't say anything. The watermelon on her shoulder was much happier, and she didn't think it was too heavy. She took it from Gao Aimin's hand and said, "Where did I get such a big watermelon? If it wasn't for the different skin, I would have thought it was a winter melon."

Gao's father had also seen the world when he was young, so he was not surprised by this kind of big watermelon. Gao Xiu'er was also quite curious, staring at Gao Aimin with a pair of big eyes.

"This time we went to S Province by car. We pulled watermelons. They gave us a few. Mom, don't let them go. These watermelons are a bit bumpy and can't be put. Maybe we can pull them next time. In the future Also." Gao Aimin said with a smile, he understands his mother's thoughts very clearly, old people like to keep things, but they are often stale or broken, but even if it is If it is broken, the old people are not willing to throw it away, and insist on eating it, which often leads to bad stomachs.This kind of thing happened more than once in the Gao family.

In the past, every time her sister brought something back to her mother's house, her mother would keep it, and then put it away.This watermelon can't hold it even if it has bumps on it, so Gao Aimin instructed.

"Why can't I let it go? It's just such a small bump. By the way, how much did you get back? If you get back a lot, you can send one to the boss and the third family. Now this watermelon is also a rare thing. "Not long after she became normal again, she showed her original shape again.

Gao Aimin obviously knew his mother very well, so he said very calmly: "Mother, he is also in business, so it would be nice if he could give us a few. I took three back and sent one to my parents. I'll send another one to my brother in a while."

Gao's mother's lips moved and she didn't say why she didn't leave a word for the third child, but she decided to pay attention to the watermelon at home and wait until the youngest son came back to eat it.Although the incident at the youngest son's house last time caused her to suffer a lot, but after all, she has loved her son for so many years, and a little anger will pass.

Gao Aimin didn't stay with his parents for too long, and left after sitting for a while. He was tired for several days, so he went to Gao Ai's country to sit for a while, and then took his wife and daughter home to rest.Ordinarily, long-distance transportation should be easier than short-distance running, but this is Gao Aimin's first long-distance running, and the strings are tense all the way. Now when they relax, they are really tired and paralyzed.

The three watermelons did not cause any conflicts in Gao Aimin's family, but because of Gao Aimin's filial piety to Yue's family, a watermelon caused a moderate disturbance in the always harmonious Liu family.

But Liu Zhenhua returned home with the watermelon Gao Aimin gave him, and Du Aimian, who was feeding chickens and pigs at home, saw Liu Zhenhua returning with something in his arms, and asked suspiciously: "Didn't you give them grain? , what are you holding on to?"

Liu Zhenhua took the watermelon out of the bag and said: "I met Aimin on the way back. They brought back four watermelons this time. They gave me one when they saw me. Find a basin and pour some cold water to freeze it. It’s better when you eat it.” After finishing speaking, he fetched water to wash his hands and face, now that it’s hot, he can sweat all over after going out.

Du Aimian was also very happy to see such a big watermelon, but she thought that it was getting late now, and she must not be able to finish it at home, and it might go bad tomorrow, so she handed Liu Zhenhua a towel and said, "So How can we finish eating the big ones? If it doesn’t work out, it will be ruined. If I say it’s better to put it aside until tomorrow, we’ll finish it after one meal at noon and another at night.”

"It's going to be bad. I'll call the eldest brother and the second brother over later, maybe it's not enough to eat." Liu Zhenhua said nonchalantly.

Du Aimian was not happy when she heard it, it was for her own family, why should it be involved in the eldest and second child's family, I have never seen them calling me my family when I had any delicious food, so she said with a sullen face: " This is for our family, why call the elder brother and second elder brother's house, how many bites can we eat with such a large group of people?"

"You women are always talking nonsense. This isn't for our family. It's for loving the people and honoring parents. How come it's yours. Stop talking nonsense and put the watermelon on ice quickly. Then you don't know anything, brother Did you have dinner with the second brother's house, why don't you go and see if we don't have dinner, we can cut two catties of meat, and it's not bad to have a meal." Liu Zhenhua said.

Now Du Aimian was completely angry. How could his family be at a loss because they couldn't get the light? How much is a catty of pork? Their family can't earn a lot of money from farming all year round. They still buy pork. In the future Go drink the northwest wind.Du Aimian is not usually so fussy, but some time ago when her natal brother came to borrow money, she really didn't have it in hand, so it was inevitable that she received some complaints from her brother, and her temper has not been going well, so today she borrowed this opportunity to borrow money. Things exploded.She was washing her hands and preparing to pack up dinner, but she didn't wash her hands when she heard Liu Zhenhua say so, but she threw the washbasin and said, "Liu Zhenhua, what you said is easy, where do you find so much money to eat meat every time, and you still have to call me?" Let’s go to your elder brother and second brother, why don’t you call Shang Quancun. The money for your family is brought by the strong wind? Your elder brother and second brother are much better off than us, why don’t you see them come to ask us to eat meat.”

Liu Zhenhua had already washed, but Du Aimian dropped the basin and got him covered in water. He wasn't that henpecked, and seeing Du Aimian's appearance made him angry, so he scolded: "You bitch! What are you talking about, looking for something to do, right? I said it’s a shame to cut two catties of meat, I can’t even eat a catty of meat at the end of the year.”

Seeing Liu Zhenhua's eyes widened, Du Aimian was a little scared. Although her husband had never touched her before, he had a bad temper. This was the last time she was wronged at her natal family, otherwise she would not have lost her temper with her husband. .But her anger has also risen, why can't she even speak a word, they didn't have much income throughout the year, all pointing at this point, her husband spends money lavishly, so far he hasn't saved any money Otherwise, even if she saves a little, she won't lose such a big face in front of her natal brothers.So she yelled at Liu Zhenhua, who was blushing and had a thick neck: "What's wrong, what I said was wrong, Liu Zhenhua, if you are capable, I wouldn't be so stingy."

No matter which man is willing to be told by his wife that he is incompetent, besides, Liu Zhenhua is not one of those idlers, he takes good care of the family's land all year round, but Du Aimian is actually just a little unscrupulous.But this sentence obviously made Liu Zhenhua angry, he raised his arm and wanted to make a move.

Du Aimian flinched a little, but she still raised her head stubbornly. Fortunately, Liu's parents, who had been staying in the house all this time, also ran out. Three, you little bastard, what are you going to do, you are so talented that you want to beat your wife, please put your hands down." Then Liu Fangfang who came out saw her parents fighting and burst into tears.

The old couple of the Liu family had heard the couple chattering in the house, but it was common for young couples to quarrel, and they didn't pay attention to it. They thought it would be fine in a while, but then they heard the voice getting louder and they even threw things. It was only when the old couple realized that something was going on, they hurried out to persuade them to fight.When the results came out, it turned out that it wasn't true, it was already a fight, if Liu's father hadn't reacted so quickly, Zhenhua's slap might have slapped Du Aimian on the face.

"Okay, what is this for? What are you two arguing about? You look like a child at such an adult. Look, it scared Fangfang." Seeing that her little granddaughter was so frightened that she was out of breath, Mother Liu said, Holding her to comfort her, he said to the two of them.Fortunately, the little grandson was put in the house by her, otherwise she would have been terrified.

Seeing her father-in-law and mother-in-law came out, and her husband being taught to be more honest by her father-in-law, Du Aimian felt aggrieved again, and she said to Liu's mother, "Mother, I told you that there is no way to live this day, so I will just let you go." He said that the money in the family should be saved, and he wanted to do it with me. Am I wrong? Although the family is not without food and drink, we are not rich, and the children in the family are also not free. It’s getting bigger every day, so don’t use it sparingly.”

Although the daughter-in-law said so, Liu's mother didn't quite believe it. Her own son, she knew, although their Zhenhua family didn't make a lot of money, but they weren't abusive. There should be a lot of moisture in what the daughter-in-law said. , but she couldn't say that, but looked at Liu Zhenhua and said, "Zhenhua, is that so?"

"It's okay, mother, we've just talked about it, I won't quarrel with her, you see Aimin brought a watermelon just now, we ate it in a while, Aimin said that the watermelon is too sweet It's gone." Now Liu Zhenhua has calmed down, although the daughter-in-law said a few unpleasant things just now, but after all, it is for the good of their family, if they tell the reason for the quarrel just now, the parents will inevitably be angry with the daughter-in-law , so he covered up the past and changed the subject by the way.

The old couple also knew that their son was not telling the truth, but since his son was old enough to have his own ideas, it was not easy for them to interfere too much as an old man, so they stopped making trouble when they saw their daughter-in-law, so they followed their son's words and talked about Gao Aimin.

In fact, Du Aimian regretted the words as soon as she uttered them. If the husband told the reason for the quarrel between the two, the in-laws would not be angry with him.But fortunately, although her husband gave her a double stare, but he didn't say anything, she let go of her worry and honestly stopped talking.
