Chapter 197. Don’t plan on relying son for care
Once Zhou Xiao i and Su Da Lin went back, Lin Qing He remarked to Mother Zhou: "The two of them have a really good relationship."
"Although Da Lin stuttered a bit, his treatnt toward Xiao i is excellent." Mother Zhou nodded.
Mother Zhou had now accepted the fact that this youngest son-in-law stuttered.
A man, who can raise a family, won’t go out to spend a lot of ti on alcohol, and can take care of his wife and children was a good man.
So there was no need to mind about so little shortcomings.
At least for now, the youngest of the three daughters married the best.
"Speaking of which, this happened because of you." Mother Zhou said with a smile.
She had heard from her youngest daughter about those criteria for choosing a husband; parentless, with car and house.
The words were blunt, but now she thought about it, wasn’t this way it should be?
It was difficult for the sole household to argue with others. However, as long as they went on with their life, won’t it be fine?
Like Cai Ba i who married Zhou Dong.
Her days were similar to her family’s Xiao i. Once she entered the door, she was in charge. There was no mother-in-law on top breathing on her shoulder. How great was that?
Lin Qing He didn’t take the credit: "What does it have to do with ? The two of them found each other right. Sotis fate is like that."
Mother Zhou grinned.
Lin Qing He asked: "Mother, have you ever went to check on Second Sister’s side? I don’t think her in-law family is easy to get along with. If it’s overboard, there is a maternal family who won’t stay silent."
This was said with confidence and domineeringly.
Mother Zhou found Fourth’s wife was more and more perfect now. She was really more magnificent and more powerful than the other daughters-in-law.
Still, she responded: "She’s already a married person. As long as it doesn’t reach that point, we don’t need to intervene. What’s more, she never ca to ntion it."
Though the daughter was married, her root was still her maternal family. If she was bullied at her in-laws’ family, her family won’t let her be freely bullied as long as the maternal family had her in mind.
It happened once, it’ll happen twice.
Last year, when second daughter was beaten so fierce, she never ca back to tell. Second Son-in-law didn’t ntion a word either. How can the maternal family intervene?
If she ca back and filed a complaint, only then can her family vent her anger. She didn’t tell them and her family intervened in her in-law’s side, what would people think?
So Mother Zhou didn’t plan to get involved.
Still, she found so ti to go over and take a look.
She brought little Su Xun along. As for items, there wasn’t much. Just two jins of peanuts as a thought.
Coming over to Second Sister’s side, she saw Second Sister’s brick and tiled house. It built pretty well.
Second Sister and Second Brother-in-law weren’t at ho. The youngest daughter and son were at ho.
Although the two were young, they both recognized Mother Zhou as their grandma.
They welcod to their grandma. Second Sister’s youngest son rushed off to call Second Sister.
Second Sister was in the middle of cutting pigweed when she heard that her mother was her. She dropped everything and headed back.
"Nothing happened. Just ca to check on you." Mother Zhou smilingly explained: "This house is nicely built."
Second Sister went in to pour water for her: "It’s thanks to my maternal brothers’ support and willingness to lend this money. If not, the house won’t be built."
"What did that side say?" Between mother and daughter, there was no need to hid, so Mother Zhou asked her daughter.
"Seeing that Fourth Brother brought so many bricks and tiles, the two old shaless people wanted to get a share of so of them so that they could add more to the roof. I didn’t give it." Second Sister sneered.
This honest person had been forced into a corner now.
No one in the village would say she was in the wrong.
Do you know that she and her man got when they moved out with their five children?
Working like a cow and a horse for so many years, they were allocated 50 yuan. As for the other furniture and so on, it was also casually given to dismiss them.
The villagers often made a jab at the old couple. No parents would act like this.
"It’s only right to not give. Qing Bai finally got it for you after many difficulties, so why should you give it to them?" Mother Zhou coldly snorted.
"Let’s not talk about them and their annoying matter. Mother, I’m afraid I can’t pay back the money I owe to my maternal brothers that soon," said Second Sister.
"You can settle down here before we discuss it again. It’s not so urgent over there. Take your ti paying it back later." Mother Zhou assured.
Second Sister nodded.
There were a few chickens at ho. Second Sister wanted to grab a chicken for Mother Zhou when she planned to head back with little Su Xun.
Mother Zhou told her: "Don’t make your face swollen to pose as a plump. Life at ho isn’t easy, so why do you still catch a chicken?"
Then she didn’t bother with Second Sister and went ho with her grandson.
When she returned, she inford Lin Qing He: "Although their lifestyle is a little poorer, the house is still spacious. It will be a problem when the children get married in the future. However, it will be five or six years later, so there is no need to worry."
Lin Qing He said: "Take it slowly. The days will get better and better."
It was currently ’74. In a blink of an eye, it was only a few years away from restriction drop. For those who were diligent, the days will only get better and better.
Because it was still in the sumr vacation, Lin Qing He decided to make more money. She got Sister i to increase the supply of pork. Basically, she would go to the county city once in a few days.
On returning from the county city that day, Lin Qin He brought a waterlon and so school supplies.
This year, she used a piece of cloth and made a schoolbag for San Wa, the stinky boy. One for each, which was really extravagant.
"Mother, you spend so much money. Did you spend all your salary?" To be able to ask this, out of the three brothers, it could only be Er Wa.
Da Wa and San Wa didn’t have the temperant to care about these.
"Yes. It’s easy to feed you, but it’s not easy to raise your brothers well." Lin Qing He said as she chilled the waterlon in well water.
Er Wa split into a grin: "When we grow up and be successful, we will definitely be filial to you, Mother."
"When you grow up, it’s ti for you to marry a wife. Then you will be soone else’s. I dare not count on you." Lin Qing He replied.
What was that phrase in her modern tis?
Birthing children is a task, raising children is a responsibility, and relying on children is a mistake.
This was very sensible. Of course, Lin Qing He also agreed with this concept.
The older generation raised children to guard against old age. But each generation had its own pressure. As parents, to be able to not drag their children down was doting their children.
And from another point of view, when one gets old and one has enough money to provide for the retirent, would they fear the daughter-in-law being filial or not?
If one has money, they can hire soone to take care of them.
That way the relationship between each other is neat.
Although the three children taught by her and were quite different from the original, so concepts that had been established will not change easily.
Still, Lin Qing He had already planned it a long ti ago.
In the future, she and Zhou Qing Bai will save money for their old-age pension. They don’t plan to rely on their sons to support them. Otherwise, they will get kicked out by the future daughters-in-law. Just the thought of it was pitiful.
