Chapter two hundred and twentieth: Gambling is not good(1/3)
After all this trouble, the whole house was still silent until dinner time.
It was not completely silent, but Bai Xiujuan and Ding Haiyang looked at each other in silence, and did not dare to say anything again, for fear that they would say something unpleasant and make their aunt angry.
Ding Limei and Ding Haihu, on the other hand, were chattering to themselves in low voices. Bai Xiujuan and Ding Haiyang were sitting next to them, feeling their faces dull.
Not only was it dull, but my heart was also filled with hairiness.
Especially Ding Haiyang, he always loves face the most, but today he was exposed at the eldest sister's house. Now the brothers and sisters are whispering, they must be talking about him...
Thinking of this, his expression turned even more ugly when he looked at Bai Xiujuan.
His sister was right. How could he have been so unlucky to marry this woman for eight lifetimes? Over the years, he has been doing well except serving the family, but he has no brains at all!
but……
Alas, now that old things are brought up again, Ding Haiyang feels a little resentful in his heart.
What's the use of raising a girl movie?
They have grown so old, but they have not enjoyed any blessings. Instead, they have given their parents a feast during the Chinese New Year. If that son had really been born...
Alas! Then I will have a wife now.
…
But Ding Haiyang is not stupid if he thinks so.
In those days, life was not as good as it is now. If you and your wife lost your job because of the birth of a son, you would probably have to eat rice bran by now.
It's a pity. Looking at his genes, a girl can go to Ming Dynasty with any care. If he was really a boy at that time, he would not be able to go abroad now?
After thinking about it for a long time, he thought that Bai Xiujuan didn't know how to handle things, which made his sister angry.
Over the years, he, as a younger brother, had nothing to do with his sister. The eldest sister's family was in good condition, and she could get any good things back if she let go.
It's better now, not only don't you take anything, but you also ask for money for that girl's movie.
The eldest sister is really getting older. The older she gets, the softer her heart becomes. She doesn’t want to think about her brother. Even if the girl is well fed and fed now, won’t she still belong to him when she gets married?
He works hard every day and treats himself better. What's wrong?
But thinking about it, if he was asked to say these words, he would never dare to say them.
…
Ding Haiyang felt depressed at the moment and sat there with a sullen face and said nothing.
In my aunt's family, my uncle Zhou Lei is naturally better at craftsmanship, but he rarely does it.
After all, they think Bai Xiujuan is not good at doing things now. In fact, in order to get some benefits from the eldest sister's family, she comes to visit during the New Year and festivals, and she often shows off her cooking skills to show off her cooking skills.
It's just that she was not given this opportunity this year.
Today, during the Chinese New Year, my uncle is cooking in the kitchen, and at the same time he is muttering to the aunt who is helping him that this younger brother is not doing things properly.
In the past, her uncle would not take the initiative to tell her eldest sister these things. After all, his wife was good at everything, but she cared a little too much about her natal brother.
But today it was my aunt who brought it up herself. If my uncle said this again, my aunt would actually listen to it in her heart.
At this time in previous years, it would be enough for one person in the family to cook, and the rest would either chat, watch TV, or play mahjong. Today, the atmosphere was a mess.
After my uncle talked about his brother-in-law's family, he sighed: "You said that you, who is celebrating the New Year, can't talk about anything properly? This makes the whole house unhappy."
The aunt threw the green onion in her hand on the chopping board.
"Say it well? This isn't the first time I've said it! I was worried about face and didn't say much before, so I just took the sister-in-law and asked her to provide more living expenses for the child."
"But now it's better to listen to each of their families!"
"Weiwei is such a good girl, and the couple looks like this, they don't feel bad at all."
"OK OK……"
Her uncle advised her: "It's not a problem just to be anxious here. Children also have their own abilities. Just watch them more carefully in the future. The children are all here for the Chinese New Year today, so don't let them watch the joke."
Auntie took a deep breath and knew that what Lao Zhou said was right.
It’s Chinese New Year, so I don’t want to have such conflicts. So I took the kitchen knife and chopped the green onions, and said awkwardly:
"Then can I not know?"
…
Not long after, the meal was ready.
As expected, my uncle Liang Dazhi was very nervous about making money, so he called him before the meal was almost ready, and he came back just as everyone was sitting down.
After all, they also have a daughter studying abroad, and everyone is used to the couple being able to work together, so naturally they didn't say much and just said a few polite words before going to the table.
During this Chinese New Year, the table is full of hard dishes, and those who look at it are very appetizing. After all, for the aunt, if she is angry, she has to cook the prepared dishes, right?
There was a large table full of dishes. She looked unhappy, but she still said hello:
"Okay, let's eat."
…
As soon as this order came out.
Ding Haiyang and Bai Xiujuan, as if they had been granted amnesty, quickly arranged their dishes and chopsticks diligently.
Of course, this kind of work was done by Bai Xiujuan. Ding Haiyang considered himself a man and would never touch the work of these women.
The aunt called Xuanxuan:
"Xuanxuan, go call your sister and your brother to come out for dinner."
Xuanxuan has been impatient for a long time!
Alas, lousy junior high school students also have human rights.
What a pity it would be to not let yourself show up when things like this happen.
Sister Weiwei is so powerful, she originally thought she could watch a big battle.
After calling Zhou Haitao and Ding Wei out, she sat neatly between her brothers and sister, trying not to lose any first-hand information this time.
…
No one cared about the little girl's little thoughts. The big guys seemed as if what happened just now didn't happen. Their faces were full of harmony. Those who needed to drink drank at the table, and those who needed to use chopsticks picked up their chopsticks.
Ding Wei felt sad, but this was what she expected. Fortunately, she would be able to live a quieter life in the future, which was worth it.
Uncle Zhou Lei has always had some authority in the family. Now he gave Ding Haiyang a drink and advised him with sincerity:
"Ocean, don't blame me, my brother-in-law, for talking about you, but there are some things that I have to explain to you clearly."
"What do we as parents want to do with our lives? Isn't it just to ensure that our children can live a good life? It's not that the old couple will eat rice bran at home and provide the children with gold and silver, but you can't turn things upside down, right?"
Second uncle Liang Dazhi came back late and didn't know what was going on here. He was stunned for a moment. Hearing the meaning of these words, his eyes couldn't help but look at Ding Haiyang, and then he couldn't help but look at Ding Haiyang.
Wei.
But he was a grown man, so he didn't notice that Ding Wei's clothes were not well made, so he just had an idea -
"That's right, Brother Ding, your belt and leather shoes are quite expensive, didn't you tell me? We don't lack them at home. We spend some money to dress up our daughter... Look at Weiwei's whole body, how come this cotton-padded jacket is still a
Where’s the black one? There’s not even a single flower on the head!”
Little girls should dress up in a colorful way!
As he spoke, my uncle couldn't help but take a sip of wine - well, the wine at Brother Zhou's house is good.
And couldn’t help but show off her daughter:
"Our Ruirui is over there, and we even bought a crystal hairpin for her mother. Meizi, why didn't you bring it with you today?"
Ding Limei was speechless. She couldn't help but glare at her husband - why is he so incapable of looking at his eyes?
However, Ding Wei coughed a little at this moment.
Zhou Haitao couldn't help but ask: "Sister, are you choking?"
Ding Wei's face was a little distorted, and she waved her hands at this moment: "It's okay, it's okay, if I'm not careful... I'll drink some water."
I never expected that my uncle is quite powerful.
Zhou Haitao was watching from the side, why did he feel that the corners of his sister's mouth were a little crooked?
…
But when my brother-in-law said this, everyone couldn't help but shift their focus a little bit, and focused on asking about Ruirui's life in Australia.
Fortunately, my uncle Zhou Lei was a leader after all, so his focus was not lost at the moment and he was still staring at Ding Haiyang persistently.
Ding Haiyang couldn't help but also glared at Ding Wei.
However, he was used to being cowardly in the face of everyone's parents, and now he had just encountered the eldest sister's scolding, so he could only respond: "Okay, I understand."
Naturally, my eldest uncle also noticed the insincerity of his words, but he was an adult after all, and he still had to save the face he had to save, so he just had to keep his words to the point.
It's not easy for him to interfere too much in other people's family affairs, right?
So I had a drink with Ding Haiyang and said, "Okay, then, you sir, just remember this and come and have a drink."
