Chapter 11: Patriarchal 11

Mother Wu's thoughts were the same as Wu Hongmei's. She didn't care whether her son-in-law took the wrong medicine or not. As long as her son-in-law treated her daughter well and didn't dislike her daughter-in-law and didn't give birth to him, she was happy.

The daughter's current life has dispelled Wu's mother's worries for many days. She clapped her hands to kill the chicken and stew the chicken soup. The son-in-law can talk about it. The daughter now nurses the child and drinks soup every day. Thinking of this, the smile on her old face is almost piled up. a flower.

Mother Wu prepared a very rich lunch, including chicken, fish, meat, and wine. Of course, the chicken, meat, and wine were all brought by Han Ze, and Wu Hongmei's eldest brother Wu Hongjun was also called to accompany the wine.

Wu Hongmei thought of taking the fourth girl back, and felt a little guilty when she saw her elder brother.

Han Ze already had a calm expression on his face and raised the wine glass with Wu Hongjun. After the meal, Wu Hongjun's daughter-in-law, Nian Aiying, came over with her three children.

Han Ze finally saw the fourth girl, a child less than three years old, black and thin, skinny, with a small body covered by an oversized undershirt, which was probably picked up by others, bare feet, face It was full of flowers, like a cat with a colorful face, looking around timidly with its eyes.

He went to look at the two children, a boy and a girl next to him. They were all wearing brand-new clothes, their faces were fair and fleshy, and their eyes were radiant. One could tell at a glance that they must be loved at home.

Han Ze narrowed his eyes, looked at the fourth girl and said with a smile, "This is the fourth girl, she has grown so big."

As soon as Han Ze said this, the dinner table suddenly fell silent.

Nian Aiying smiled and said: "His uncle is suffering from hysteria. Where did the fourth girl come from? This is our second girl."

She was still thinking about the child in her arms, she must have been looking forward to Shu, what did she do long ago.

Han Ze looked at Si Yatou and called out: "Girl, come here, let me see."

The fourth girl looked at Nian Aiying timidly. The little child is ignorant, but she also knows that her mother doesn't like her. If she wants to be liked by her mother, she has to listen to her in everything. will pass.

Nian Aiying sneered, didn't say anything, just stared at Si Yatou fiercely.

The fourth girl trembled in fright, and stood there not daring to move anymore.

Nian Aiying snorted in satisfaction, the little girl was not born by her, but raised by her, whoever raises it is up to him, even if Han Ze is her own father, what is it if he hasn't raised her for a day?

Han Ze felt very sad when he saw it.

Wu Hongmei quietly wiped away her tears, and looked at the fourth girl reluctantly. She handed the fifth girl in her arms to Han Zhaodi, walked up to Nian Aiying a few steps, and begged with red eyes: "Sister-in-law, give me back the fourth girl." Bar"

Nian Aiying looked at her in surprise, and asked mockingly: "I begged me to take the child away, but now that I have raised the child, I want to go back again? It's not such a good thing."

He didn't even want to ask Si Yatou to go back, even his own brothers and sisters didn't do it.

Wu's father, Wu's mother, and Wu Hongjun looked at Han Ze in amazement. Did the Han family mean that Hongmei wanted to take the child back? Or did Hongmei mean it herself?

Han Ze was also stunned for a moment, his expression obviously did not expect Wu Hongmei to do this, Wu's father, mother, Wu Hongjun and Wu Hongjun knew that this was what Hongmei meant, and they suddenly felt guilty, Hongmei didn't give birth to a son for the Han family , and now she wants to take the fourth girl back, is Mrs. Han willing?

"Sister-in-law, please return the fourth girl to me, I beg you." Wu Hongmei cried, "Please, please..."

Nian Aiying looked at Wu's parents, Wu's mother, and Wu Hongjun with resentment on her face. Seeing their bewildered expressions, she shifted her gaze to Han Ze and asked loudly, "Are you going to go back on your word?"

Han Ze stood up, grabbed Wu Hongmei, and persuaded in a low voice: "Hongmei, the child has already been given to the eldest brother and sister-in-law, please stop messing around."

Wu Hongmei was sobbing, looked at Wu Hongjun and his wife, and begged, "Brother, can you give me back the fourth girl? I beg you to be my younger sister."

"This..." Hu Hongjun looked at Nian Aiying. She was just a girl, not her own. Don't you disagree?

"I took the baby with her before she was a month old, fed her milk and washed diapers, raised her so much with all my money and energy, and you have to leave if you say you want to. There is no such good thing in the world." Nian Aiying said angrily.

"What do you want to return the child to me?" Wu Hongmei looked at her expectantly with tears in her eyes.

"I don't want to give it no matter what." Nian Aiying said without thinking, the girl is almost three years old, and she can eat and drink by herself, so she doesn't have to worry about it. It's easy, even if Wu Hongmei is willing to pay her to compensate, she is not willing to return the child to her.

Han Ze looked at Wu Hongmei and sighed: "If the child is given to the eldest brother, it belongs to the eldest brother. We can't go back on what we say."

"Things that my brother-in-law can understand, Hongmei, you shouldn't make things difficult for us." Nian Aiying agreed disdainfully.

Han Ze looked at Wu Hongmei guiltily, and said with reluctance: "Hongmei, let's get a divorce. I don't have a son, and it's my fault that I didn't have a son. It's my fault that you separated your mother and daughter, so let's get a divorce. "

Wu Hongmei was stunned, and looked at Han Ze in a daze, didn't she come to ask for a daughter? Could it be that Han Ze had already planned to divorce her?

Han Ze looked at Wu's father and Wu's mother, full of apology: "Father and mother, the old blind uncle in our village told my fortune, saying that I will not have a son in this life, and I caused Hongmei to give birth to so many girls. I can't hurt her anymore, I want to divorce her, let her find a man who can give birth to a boy, and don't have to be scolded for not being able to give birth to a son..."

"what?"

"what?"

Wu's father and Wu's mother looked at Han Ze in disbelief. He said angrily, "What kind of divorce is not divorced? What kind of marriage is it? Can you trust fortune-telling?"

"How did you say that?" Wu Hongjun couldn't help but laugh, his sister was making trouble, and his brother-in-law was also making trouble. Can he still live a good life? He can't just believe the fortune-telling just because he gave birth to several girls in succession. Why doesn't he know that his brother-in-law is so superstitious.

Nian Aiying has nothing to do with her. She hasn't given birth to a son for so many years. It is not a lie to say that they have no son.

Han Ze choked with sobs and said, "It was I who harmed Hongmei. She was scolded for committing crimes in her previous life, and she couldn't have a son in this life. It's all my fault. I didn't have a son. I'm sorry for Hongmei." what."

Wu's father and Wu's mother were dumbfounded. They were not superstitious, and they didn't believe in the words that no son would die. It was the couple's responsibility not to have a son. The son-in-law took all the sins on himself, but they didn't know what to say, after all. If this is the case, the son-in-law will feel guilty towards his daughter, and will not dislike her, and will treat her better from now on. As for the divorce, they will not agree.

Wu Hongmei's tears kept falling, but she still couldn't believe that a man wanted to divorce her?

Han Zhaodi was stunned and panicked, her father was seriously poisoned by superstition, how should she wake him up?

Wu Hongjun felt that his brother-in-law was so weird that he wanted to divorce his sister because of a fortune-telling sentence.

Han Ze's tone was sincere: "Father and mother, this is the result of my careful consideration. I decided to let Hongmei go and let her find a man who can bear a son. What's the use of being with me? I can't give her a son, even my own daughter. I want to give it away, I think about the fourth girl at home every day, my eyes are almost blind from crying, I can't bear it..."

"I don't agree to divorce." Wu Hongmei came back to her senses and cried loudly: "I don't want a son, can't I not want a son?"

Han Ze turned his face away from her, and said with reluctance in his tone, "You don't want a son, don't you even want the fourth girl? After getting divorced and returning to her mother's house, she can guard the fourth girl every day. I am for you it is good."

"I don't want you to be nice to me, anyway, I won't divorce." Wu Hongmei couldn't help wiping away her tears.

Han Ze sighed deeply, as if in endless pain: "I can't even keep the child you gave birth to, so what's the point of following me? Divorce, find a good man after the divorce, find a man who can keep your child."

Father Wu narrowed his eyes and said, "After all, you still want a divorce?"

Han Ze lowered his head, his face was full of guilt and reluctance: "I don't want to divorce, but I can't harm Hongmei, what can I do?"

"I don't want a son, I don't want a son..." Wu Hongmei murmured.

Wu Hongjun couldn't bear it. It was his own sister. He said with red eyes, "Han Ze is wrong to believe in superstitions, let alone break up the family and harm himself because of superstitions."

Han Ze said seriously: "Brother, the other fortune tellers may be fake, but Mr. Han from our village is very accurate in fortune telling. Our younger sister and third brother are all accurate by him. There are ready-made examples." , I have to believe it."

Wu Hongjun frowned tightly, and said angrily: "My sister just said that she doesn't want a son, and you want a divorce?"

Han Ze looked at the fourth girl and said reluctantly, "Brother, you trust me, I'm doing it for her own good."

Wu Hongjun trembled with anger: "It's better for her to divorce her, why didn't I know there was such a strange thing."

Han Ze lowered his eyes and remained silent.

Han Zhaodi looked at her father and then at her mother, and said, "Uncle, what my father means is that after he divorced my mother, my mother returned to her mother's house and could see my sister every day. My mother sometimes misses her all the time in recent years." Crying all night long, my dad didn't know that it was him who gave birth to a girl. Now that he knows, he can't hurt my mom. After all, my dad and my grandma used to dislike my mom for not being able to have a son... "

Wu Hongjun said angrily, "You also want your parents to divorce?"

What does the little girl know?

Han Zhaodi hesitated: "I don't want to, but I love my mother..." She paused and looked at Wu Hongjun.

Wu Hongjun said angrily: "Why do you feel sorry for your mother?"

If you feel sorry for your mother, you should persuade your father not to let him divorce.

Han Zhaodi plucked up her courage: "I feel sorry for my mother who cried all night long, all because she misses my sister. If my sister is by my mother's side, my mother will stop crying, and I don't care whether my father has a son or not. They're definitely not going to get divorced."

Wu Hongjun looked at his younger sister and asked, "Do you really want to cry all night long like Fourth Girl thinks?"

Wu Hongmei stared at him blankly.

Wu Hongjun had already believed Han Zhaodi's words, and sighed, "In that case, let's take the fourth girl back. I can't make my brother-in-law feel guilty because of a girl, and let the two of you divorce."

Nian Aiying objected loudly: "I don't agree."

Wu Hongjun roared: "If you don't agree, you have to agree. Do you want your sister and brother-in-law to divorce? Why are you so peaceful?"

Han Ze smiled wryly and said, "Brother, don't talk about sister-in-law. I understand her. No one wants to give up a child who has worked so hard to bring up to others. I wouldn't be willing to do it, so forget it."

Mother Wu thought about her daughter crying all night, so her eyes must not be blinded by crying? Why has she never told her, no wonder she was so haggard before, did she want to feel sorry for her as a mother? He said stiffly: "Master, return the child to your sister."

Nian Aiying looked at her mother-in-law resentfully, and said unwillingly: "I don't want to, why?"

Mother Wu snorted and said, "If you don't want to, you have to. I know that you have raised four girls for three years, and you have contributed money and efforts. I will ask Han Ze to compensate you for the three years. Is this not treating you badly?"

Nian Aiying knew that it was related to Wu Hongmei's divorce. She was unwilling to give it to the girl, and the man would not agree to it. After all, she was his sister. Thinking of this, she said: "You also know that it is not easy to raise a child. I am so troublesome." Work hard and end up getting nothing..."

Han Ze asked: "Sister-in-law thinks she should be compensated as much as she wants. I am absolutely unambiguous."

Nian Aiying glanced at her father-in-law, mother-in-law and her own man, and then at Wu Hongmei's family, who were all wearing patches. Knowing that their family had no money, she gritted her teeth: "One thousand yuan, you give me one thousand yuan to bring the child. Walk."

Just as Han Ze was about to agree, Wu Hongjun said angrily, "When you see money, what is a thousand dollars? How can you ask them to give you a thousand dollars?"

It's nothing to look for, what if my brother-in-law has no money and wants to divorce my sister?

Nian Aiying said unwillingly: "Five, five hundred is five hundred."

Anyway, that girl is very well-behaved, she won't cry or fuss when she was hugged, she lay on the bed for a long time without asking questions, she grew up eating snacks, porridge, soy milk powder, and she earned five hundred yuan without feeding her milk powder.

Han Ze, who was going to spend two thousand yuan: "..."

However, no matter how much money, as long as he is willing to return the child to him, it is nothing.

Father Wu suddenly said: "Wait..."
