Early in the morning on February [-]th.

Chu Tianyao drove the car and left Yongning with Liu Na, Chu He and Chu Guangsheng.

Jianghe County, like Yongning, belongs to Lucheng, the distance between the two places is only tens of kilometers, and the Chu family is in a town below Jianghe.

Since the supply and marketing cooperative was restructured last year, Chu Guangsheng has lived with his parents most of the time, and it is also convenient for him to take care of the elderly at home.

After driving for just over two hours, the group arrived in the town.

The town is called Yangjiang Town. Speaking of which, the old Chu family used to be quite famous in this town. Chu Tianyao’s grandfather, Chu Guoyuan, was the deputy director of the office of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. Folks from ten miles and eight villages have to call Director Chu when they see him.

Although he retired later, the job was handed over to his eldest son, Chu Yunde. Chu Yunde was quite skillful, and within a few years he climbed to the position of deputy director. Deputy Chu is gone.

Over the years, because of the eldest son of the Chu family, Chu Guoyuan was even more important in the town. If any family had a wedding or a wedding, the old man had to be invited to the venue.

"Third Uncle, it stands to reason that the Uncle's family is so powerful, it's not like they can't help you even with this little help!"

Before the car reached Yangjiang Town, Chu Tianyao couldn't help frowning and asked after hearing Chu Guangsheng mention the matter of his uncle Chu Yunde.

After all, they are blood brothers. At first, Chu Yunde took over his father's job, but now that he has made a fortune and the family has moved to the county, he doesn't care about his parents and brothers. This really makes Chu Tianyao look down on him a bit.

"Hey...Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, and your uncle can't help himself."

In the back seat of the car, Chu Guangsheng sighed, and then he talked in detail about his elder brother Chu Yunde.

It turned out that the reason why the old man of the Chu family gave the opportunity to the boss Chu Yunde was because Chu Yunde had a relationship with someone back then, the family was in business, and the other family disliked Chu Yunde's low status.

Seeing that this marriage was about to turn yellow, under Chu Yunde's repeated request, the old man couldn't bear it and had to secretly give him the opportunity to be a post.

Holding the iron rice bowl and having the status of eating the emperor's food, Chu Yunde got married in the second year, and later with the help of his father-in-law, he climbed up in the bureau within a few years.

Although it looks powerful, Chu Yunde knows in his heart that he has always relied on his old man.

His wife's natal family was strong, so Chu Yunde naturally became an idiot, and even obeyed his wife Zhang Meiyu's words.

"Your eldest aunt has always disliked our poor relatives, and my eldest brother didn't want to see me, probably because of this reason."

Chu Guangsheng said that he understood the reason why he had been avoiding Chu Yunde when he went to the city to find him several times.

"Why, poor relatives are not relatives? Broken bones are still connected."

In the car, before Chu Tianyao could speak, Chu He said dissatisfiedly after hearing these words.

Although Liu Na didn't interrupt, she obviously didn't like the uncle Chu Yunde's family.

"That's what I said, but who made us poor... After your second aunt's accident this time, I understand some truths."

At this point, Chu Guangsheng said with a wry smile.

He used to work in a supply and marketing cooperative, and he had a good time, but he never thought about the country. The supply and marketing cooperatives across the country were reformed on a large scale, and Chu Guangsheng lost his job overnight.

But the house leak happened to rain overnight, and at this juncture, his wife Li Xiulan became seriously ill again, and his savings were wiped out in just half a year.

From rich to poor, seeing clearly the warmth and coldness of human relationships, Chu Guangsheng can be regarded as having a new understanding of life in the true sense.

noon.

The car entered Yangjiang Town, and under Chu Guangsheng's instructions, it stopped outside the courtyard of a two-story building.

Although it is a self-built house, it is not bad to have two floors.

As soon as the car stopped, Chu Guangsheng got out of the car and entered the yard, and then shouted to the back room: "Dad, Mom, look who is here?"

Hearing Chu Guangsheng's voice, an old man came out of the room.

"Tianyao!"

As soon as Chu Guoyuan came out, he saw Chu Tianyao standing behind Chu Guangsheng head-on, with a smile on his old face.

"Dad, haven't you been talking about Tianyao all the time? I'll let him come to our house to celebrate the New Year this year."

Chu Guangsheng laughed at the side.

"Grandpa, I'm here to wish you New Year's greetings."

Although the person in front of him felt a little strange to him, but Chu Tianyao finally shouted out, and carried the pile of gifts in his hand into the living room.

Behind Chu Tianyao, Liu Na pulled Chu He forward and said hello to the two old people in front of him.

"Okay, okay, just come."

Chu Guoyuan just nodded to Liu Na and Chu He. Although he is in his sixtieth year, he is still a veteran cadre.

After entering Chu's house, Chu Tianyao also met his second aunt Li Xiulan who was also under the eaves.

Since getting kidney disease, Li Xiulan can only rely on dialysis twice a week to maintain her life, her face is slightly pale, and she almost stays behind closed doors at this home all day.

After learning from Chu Guangsheng that Chu Tianyao lent money to them for medical treatment, she looked at Chu Tianyao with a look of gratitude.

"Sister-in-law, why do I feel that my grandparents don't like me very much?"

In the living room, seeing Chu Guoyuan ignoring everyone and just chatting with Chu Tianyao, Chu He couldn't help but bowed his head and asked in Liu Na's ear.

"Don't think about it, you are their granddaughter, how could they not like you."

Liu Na patted the back of Chu He's hand and explained softly.

In fact, not only Chu He, Liu Na also felt that Chu Guoyuan's attitude towards her seemed extraordinarily indifferent.

"Tianyao, it's not grandma talking about you, you've been married for a while, why haven't you heard anything yet?"

The white-haired Hu Guifeng was a bit inconvenient to move, so he just sat in front of the iron stove with his crutches, and glanced coldly at Liu Na, who seemed to be a little dissatisfied when he saw that the latter had a flat stomach.

"At the beginning when I married into the Chu family, I gave birth to the eldest child within a year, and then became pregnant with your father and the third child. It can be regarded as a good start for the Chu family. I never thought that it would be so disappointing in your generation. , all girls."

Hu Guifeng's typical patriarchal feudal thinking, but this kind of thinking still exists even 30 years later, let alone now.

When Liu Na heard these words, her shoulders trembled instantly.

It has been a year since she married into Chu's family. If it was placed in their village, she would have been slandered by others. Liu Na herself is not reconciled. She feels guilty for not being able to conceive a child for Chu Tianyao for so long. .

"It's only been a while since we've been married. Besides, both Nana and I are busy with our careers. It will be the same if we have children in two years."

Feeling the lethality of the old lady's words to Liu Na, Chu Tianyao smiled perfunctorily, but his right hand held Liu Na's left hand under the table, signaling that the other party should not be nervous.

On the side, Li Xiulan with a sick complexion brought two plates of melon seeds and fruits from the back room, put them in front of Chu Tianyao, and smiled at him.

"What career can she be busy with?"

After hearing Chu Tianyao's words, Hu Guifeng glanced at Liu Na, and then looked at Li Xiulan in front of him, with a bit of disgust in his eyes.

"Don't be like your second aunt, she's a good-for-nothing."

Hu Guifeng's words made the atmosphere in the room suddenly stiff, and Chu Tianyao did not expect that the old lady in front of him would speak so harshly.

Li Xiulan was infertile, and Chu Tianyao knew about it. For many years, the two old people wanted Chu Guangsheng to divorce and find another one, but Chu Guangsheng decided on Li Xiulan.

Now it's all over, since Li Xiulan got sick, she's more like a plague god in this family, unable to hold her head up.

as predicted.

As soon as Hu Guifeng said this, Li Xiulan couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes, and ran towards the door covering her face.

"Second aunt!"

Seeing this, Liu Na hurriedly got up and chased after her, fearing that she would be overwhelmed.

"Let her go, anyway, there are not many more of her in this family."

Hu Guifeng stared at the door, and then glanced at Chu He who was sitting alone by the side.

Sensing the eyes of his grandma, Chu He subconsciously sat down next to Chu Tianyao.

"Okay, the New Year's Eve has to be seen as a joke!"

Chu Guoyuan glared at the person beside him, and then Hu Guifeng stopped talking.

At this time, Chu Tianyao, who was sitting at his original position, showed a wry smile, more or less understood why his father left the Chu family in the first place.
