Chapter 10: Patriarchal 10
At home, Wu Hongmei noticed the scratches on the fifth girl's face, exclaimed, and asked distressedly: "What's going on?"
Han Ze didn't answer her, and the fifth girl fell asleep again. He put her on the bed and covered her with a blanket, thinking about going to the pharmacy to buy some medicine for her later.
The third girl next to her pursed her lips and complained crisply: "Han Xuchen and Han Haoran scratched her. I didn't let them poke my sister with a stick, and they beat me."
There are endless small grievances on the small face.
"This, this..." Wu Hongmei looked at Han Ze anxiously. She felt distressed when the child was scratched, but it was the two ancestors of the second and third family who scratched the child. She really had no choice. Looking at the third girl, he couldn't help pushing her angrily, and scolded: "You are watching there, why don't you know how to protect your sister, what use is there for you?"
The third girl was staggered for a while by Wu Hongmei's push, she stood upright, tears rolled in her eyes, her face was tense, she pursed her lips stubbornly, and said nothing.
Han Ze glanced at Wu Hongmei coldly, pulled Sanya to his side, and said, "She is so young, what does she know? You are a mother who can't protect your own child, yet you come to blame Sanya?"
Han Ze was very dissatisfied with Wu Hongmei for giving the child to the third girl. It is not too much to keep a child who is less than two months old. How can he be handed over to a child who doesn't understand anything.
Wu Hongmei was taken aback, she didn't expect the man to complain that she didn't take good care of the child, she blushed and felt wronged, and explained hesitantly: "I'm cooking..."
"It's important to have children for cooking?" Han Ze looked at her coldly, "You are virtuous, the second and third daughters-in-law are sitting there playing, what are you helping with cooking?"
Han Ze's words were not merciful, he was so angry, looking at Wu Hongmei with moist eyes, he sighed, it was all the original body's fault, and Wu Hongmei couldn't be blamed, after all, they usually live like this, no matter what When any brothers and sisters came over, it was Wu Hongmei who cooked and took care of the whole family.
Looking at Wu Hongmei, he said sadly: "After today's incident, don't you understand?"
Wu Hongmei asked him blankly: "Understand what?"
Han Ze's tone was sad: "Since Blind Han said that I have no son's life, our mother has changed."
Wu Hongmei looked at the man in confusion. She didn't realize that her mother-in-law had changed. Instead, she felt that the man had changed since hearing Xia Xiazi Han say that he had no son. It is also very good for her to find ways to cook delicious food for them. She was delighted by the man's change, so she was happy to see the result and didn't say anything.
Han Ze decided that his mother had changed, and said disappointedly and sadly: "I always knew that mothers favor sons over daughters, but I didn't expect that the mother who loved me the most left me and went to the second child's house because I heard that I don't have a son. , hit me even more today, is it true that mother said that she loves me the most is a lie? A son is not as important as a grandson?"
Wu Hongmei's eyes widened. Although her mother-in-law didn't like her and the girls, she was really nice to her man, and she even hit him. Why?
Han Ze sat on the stool, clenched his fists, and said, "Hongmei, we don't have a son, and everyone looks down on me, even my mother. Even so, I don't plan to adopt the son of the second and third son, after all, I don't have a son." My son's life, even though my nephews are ignorant, I can't harm them. Judging from today's incident, I clearly understand that it is unreliable to count on a few nephews for retirement. My son hurts..."
In the end, he had a self-mockery on his face, which was a self-mockery of being hurt by his family members.
Although Wu Hongmei has little knowledge, she knows that people's hearts are unpredictable and sea water is hard to measure. She doesn't think that her nephew will give them old age, but she didn't give birth to a son for the family. dare not refute.
Now the man can say that he can't succeed the sons of the second and third sons, and he doesn't expect them to provide for the elderly. She is very happy in her heart. After all, if she doesn't expect them to provide for the elderly, she will not wrong the daughters in the family and please the nephews unconditionally.
Han Ze continued: "Although the children in our family are girls, they are filial and sensible. They will be our support in the future, so you mother should stand up and protect them. We parents can't protect our own children. Who else do you expect to protect a few children?"
Wu Hongmei's eyes are slightly red, she also wants to protect her children, her children are all girls, they are not taken seriously in this family, what can she do?
Han Ze knew what she was thinking, and said reproachfully, "Both younger siblings know how to sit and play. You just gave birth and you still have a baby boy, so why don't you know how to be lazy?"
Wu Hongmei stared blankly at Han Ze, so she can be lazy?
Han Ze continued: "You are the mother of the children. No matter at any time, in front of anyone, you should protect them and prevent them from being hurt. This is your responsibility as a mother. You must always remember that everything No kids matter.
"Nothing is as important as a child?" Wu Hongmei repeated in a daze.
"Yes, they were born by you, what do you think is more important than them?" Han Ze said with a smile, and patiently taught her: "Just like today they asked you to cook, you can say that you want to take the children to send them away , with you and the child, can the fifth girl be scratched by two brats? You blame the third girl."
Wu Hongmei looked at the sobbing third girl, feeling guilty for the first time, the man was right, the child crawled out of her stomach, what is more important than them, her fault, wiped her face, and said: "Three When my brother and children and aunts came back, I was the one who cooked, so it’s not good to stop cooking all of a sudden, right? It’s time to hurt your peace.”
Han Ze said calmly: "There's nothing wrong with it. Even if you treat them as your ancestors, it's not as good as having a son for your mother to like."
Not being able to give birth to a son is a sin in Mrs. Han's heart, that is, you are so good, and you are not as good as your grandson.
Wu Hongmei: "..."
Han Ze smiled and gave Wu Hongmei confidence: "It's not your fault that you can't have a son. It's because I don't have a son. I tired you. You don't have to feel inferior. You don't have to feel short in front of your younger siblings. You don't have a son." Son, I can earn money with my skills and give your mother a rich life, you are better than them in this regard."
When the man said that he had no son, Wu Hongmei was used to it, so she didn't feel surprised. Thinking of the thick pile of savings at home, she felt at ease. The second child and the third child can't earn tens of thousands of dollars in more than a month. Women have to rely on men. No matter how many sons marry a wife in the future, the money they earn is still not the daughter-in-law's.
Han Ze said suddenly: "So I decided that we will go to your natal house tomorrow to bring back the fourth girl."
Wu Hongmei nodded with red eyes, "Okay."
Even if the child is given to her natal elder brother, she still feels distressed. After all, she knows how a sister-in-law is. A child in the eldest brother's house may not be much better than other people's, but she can often see it. A man is willing to take his daughter back, so what is there for her to be dissatisfied with?
She felt that it was a good thing that her mother-in-law beat a man today. After all, after her man was beaten by her mother-in-law, the honest and filial man seemed to have a problem with her mother-in-law.
Thinking about not having to look at the faces of her younger siblings anymore, and not having to watch a few nephews bullying her children regardless, she felt a little hopeful in her heart.
…
There was no market today, so Han Ze didn't have to go to the town to set up a stall to sell noodles. After breakfast, he drove the tractor at home, caught a chicken, a few bottles of wine, and a few catties of meat and put them in the tractor compartment, carrying his wife and a few A girl drove to her mother-in-law's house.
Wu Hongmei's parents kept saying at home that the eldest daughter was about to give birth, so they didn't go home to see how her confinement was doing, and they didn't know whether the fifth girl was given away by Mrs. Han. Which family did you send it to, and how is the situation in that family...
Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao will be here, and I was still talking about them in the morning, and in the morning they drove a tractor and the whole family came.
Mother Wu was very happy, she took her daughter to look at her worriedly, and said with a smile, "I'm getting fatter, and I'm getting whiter, this month's confinement seems to be done."
When Wu Hongmei heard her mother's words, she smiled and glanced at her man. This was all due to her own man. When Wu's mother saw her daughter looking at her son-in-law, she looked at Han Ze, found the baby in his arms, and asked hesitantly: "This is... fifth girl?"
Back at her natal home, Wu Hongmei smiled all over her face and said, "Yes, mother, look at how handsome she is. She used to be less than five catties, but now she is so obedient and chubby."
Mother Wu was a little surprised. The girl gave birth to another girl this time, but Mrs. Han didn't give her away? She looked at her daughter, saw that she was only smiling, and thought about asking her in private.
Han Ze asked Han Zhaodi to take the things off the car, smiled and said to Wu's mother, "Mother, kill the chicken and make the soup. Hongmei now drinks soup every day." After drinking the soup, there is milk.
Wu's mother was even more surprised. What do you think the son-in-law meant? Hongmei gave birth to a girl and not only treated her better than before, but even improved her treatment? Could it be that she kept remembering wrongly, and Hongmei actually gave birth to a boy?
Seeing her mother in a daze, Wu Hongmei couldn't help calling out, "Mother, what's wrong?"
Mother Wu came back to her senses and said uncomfortably, "It's okay."
After speaking, he looked at Han Zhaodi and the sisters, and said hello: "It's all on vacation, Zhaodi should graduate from elementary school, do you plan to continue studying?"
When the girl was having a baby, she went to her girl's house, and she seemed to hear Mrs. Han saying that Zhaodi had graduated and didn't have to go to school, so she could come back and help the house.
Wu Hongmei said stubbornly: "Read it, why don't you read it. Her father said that as long as the child is willing to study, he will support her to study even if she sells everything."
Listening to her mother's words, Han Zhaodi's eyes lit up. She wanted to go to university, and she wanted it very much. Yesterday, she got the answer right in the junior high school exam. Except for the composition, she didn't know the score. No problem, she believes that she will have no problems in high school and university in the future, and she will definitely be able to pass the exam.
Mother Wu glanced at Han Ze in surprise. Did the son-in-law take the wrong medicine? Do you listen to his mother for everything?
