Chen Shan loved money as much as his life. When he thought of this, how could he sit still? He immediately scolded, "Little brother, how can you be so muddle-headed? There are no bad parents in the world. Even if our mom is in the wrong, you can just say a few words about her. How can you move out just like that?"
Normally, Father Chen would listen to Chen Shan, but after Grandma Chen's repeated heartbreak, Father Chen only said, "Brother, don't try to persuade me. I know what I'm doing with our mom. I won't move back."
Chen Shan didn't expect Chen Yan to be so resolute. He changed the topic and said, "… If you leave, you won't even want the land?"
Since coercion didn't work, then he would entice him. It wasn't like Chen Yan didn't even want the money.
Chen Shan really didn't expect Chen Yan to really not want the money.
Chen Yan said straightforwardly, "I've already thought it through. I'm a big man with strength and a skill. I can eat my fill wherever I go. Our parents are still in good health, and the two of us can still manage to farm so much land. I don't want my land anymore. Just treat it as leaving it for our parents to retire. When our parents can't work anymore, brother, you'll be filial to them for a month, and I'll be filial to them.
What do you think? "Chen Shan had first coerced, then enticed. After thinking of so many ideas, he never expected Father Chen to directly take drastic measures and give up everything. Chen Shan was instantly dumbfounded.
If Chen Yan didn't come back, wouldn't Chen Shan have to take care of Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen in the future? Chen Shan's face instantly darkened. After glaring at Father Chen grumpily, he sneered and said, "I never realized before that little brother was so bold."
"Even a rabbit will bite when it's cornered, let alone a living person." Father Chen had come back happily, but after being provoked by Grandma Chen's words, his heart instantly turned cold when he heard Chen Shan's words, and his desire for familial love dropped to the lowest point.
Father Chen curled his lip slightly and said directly, "Since you're taking care of mom and dad, I'm relieved. I still have something to do, so I'll go back first."
After saying this, Father Chen directly left with his wife and child for his in-laws' house.
Madam Chen's father was a teacher. Although her mother was a farmer, she had gone to school and could be considered an intellectual.
Madam Chen knew that if her parents found out that she had moved out with her husband and child, they would definitely be angry.
Now that what was done could not be undone and everything was set in stone, Madam Chen had the courage to return.
Madam Chen's surname was Li.
Just as Madam Chen had expected, when she heard Madam Chen say that she and Father Chen were moving out to start their own household, Grandma Li's face immediately darkened. "Outrageous, your parents are still alive, how can you split up? Go back. "
Seeing his wife being criticized by his mother-in-law, Father Chen immediately stepped forward and said, "Mom, don't scold Xiao Juan. It was my idea to move out."
Grandma Li had criticized Madam Chen not only because she really felt that it was inappropriate for her to move out while her parents were still around, but also because she was putting on an act for Father Chen. Now that she saw Father Chen speak up to defend her daughter, she immediately shut up and asked in a low voice, "Why did you suddenly want to move out?"
He knew his daughter's temper very well. She was strong on the outside but soft on the inside. If she hadn't crossed the bottom line, how could she do such a rebellious thing like moving out?
This was a family scandal, but there was nothing to hide from her parents.
Madam Chen sighed, and in a low voice, told her in full detail why she had moved out.
After hearing the whole story, there was only one word in Grandma Li's mind: absurd.
She had seen crafty and unreasonable people, but this was the first time she had seen someone so absurd.
She hated her own son because of a fortune-teller's nonsense. Not only was she indifferent to her son, she even talked nonsense to her son's flesh and blood, and even told her grandson not to be filial to her son when he grew up.
Grandma Chen's words and actions were even more absurd than in operas.
Grandma Li had originally wanted to say that her daughter's actions were inappropriate and that people would criticize her in the future. Now that she heard the whole story, she even felt that her daughter should have moved out long ago.
Looking at her son-in-law who had been standing by her side and protecting Madam Chen the whole time, Grandma Li breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, her son-in-law's heart was with her daughter.
Now that her daughter had moved out, even if Grandma Chen was resentful, she couldn't get close to her daughter and son-in-law.
After talking about these terrible things, Grandma Li didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she began to talk to her daughter and son-in-law about the interesting things that had happened in the family recently.
Father Chen had been worried that his father-in-law and mother-in-law would blame him, but looking at his mother-in-law's attitude, it was obvious that she wasn't angry anymore. Father Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and then called Jiujiu and Chen Chen over to talk to Grandma Li. The couple then went to buy groceries and prepare to cook.
Madam Chen's moving and going out to set up a stall were all hidden from Grandma Li, and she didn't dare to come over. Grandma Li hadn't seen Jiujiu and Chen Chen for a long time. Now that she saw them, she immediately felt sorry for them. She opened the cabinet and kept taking out delicious food, so that the two children could eat more.
Chen Chen wasn't very interested in snacks, but she liked them very much. She kept stuffing them into her mouth, and didn't forget to share one with her grandma. She said sweetly, "Grandma, have some, too."
Seeing that her grandson didn't forget to take care of her while eating, Grandma Li instantly beamed with joy and said with a smile, "You eat it. I don't like it."
After talking to Chen Chen, Grandma Li looked at Jiujiu and couldn't help but sigh, "Good girl, I'm sorry to trouble you."
Madam Chen had already said that she was busy setting up a stall outside, and Jiujiu helped her with everything at home. She was even responsible for Chen Chen's academic performance.
And if Jiujiu hadn't been so sensible, her snack stall wouldn't have been able to open so smoothly.
It was said that children from poor families could take charge of the family at an early age. Now Jiujiu was only nine years old, but she was already so sensible.
Grandma Li sighed and said to Jiujiu, "Your parents are busy making money. When the holidays come, you two can come to my house. I'll take care of you."
The summer vacation was so hot that the two children couldn't go to their daughter's place to eat every day. Jiujiu's arms and legs were so small that it was difficult for her to cook. When the winter vacation came, the dripping water would become ice. Jiujiu's hands were used for reading and writing, and she might get frostbite if she cooked. Therefore, Grandma Li planned to help her daughter take care of her two grandchildren.
Jiujiu knew that her grandma was good, but there were still three uncles at home.
Originally, the three uncles were always in a bad mood because of which one of them was given more or less by her grandma. If they knew that her grandma took Jiujiu and Chen Chen here for two or three months, they would probably be in a worse mood.
Jiujiu said obediently, "Grandma, if you miss Chen Chen and me, you can ask someone to tell us and we'll come over. It's just that my mother is already very tired to set up a stall outside. My brother and I want to take care of her at home."
Jiujiu had already planned that when the winter vacation and summer vacation came, she and Chen Chen would go to the snack stall to help and see if they could develop some other small businesses.
