Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Two: Patriarchal
Sheng'an is not far from being removed from the market. It takes more than two hours to drive. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of Su Yingjia Community, Su's father was already waiting at the door.
Following Su's father, as soon as he stepped into Su Ying's house, Li Mu saw five or six people staring at him. Su Ying obviously knew him and hurriedly introduced him to Li Mu. It turned out that these were relatives of Su Ying's family, and Li Mu also hurriedly said hello with Su Ying.
Li Mu finally realized the feeling of Su Ying in her home and facing her grandparents.
Fortunately, it was lunch time soon. Su Ying's relatives finally let Li Mu go. In the afternoon, his mother was pulled to play mahjong. Li Mu also escaped from the interrogation.
Li Mu and Su Ying had just gone downstairs and planned to go for a walk. When they saw Su Mu talking to a girl. The girl was crying while talking. Li Mu was just thinking, why did Su Mu throw away the garbage for so long and haven't returned home? It turned out that she was chatting with someone else.
However, Li Mu was very curious. Why did this girl cry during the New Year? Her eyes were red and swollen at this time.
Su Ying also discovered the girl who was chatting with her mother. "He is my aunt's daughter, but her life is not good."
"What does it mean to be bad?" Li Mu was a little confused.
"Every family has a difficult sutra to recite. Her name is Ren Yunshan. Her mother is my mother's sister. She is also my sister. However, their family's emphasis on boys over girls is very serious."
"Sister Yunshan is thirty years old this year and has never been married. The reason is that my aunt and the others ask for money at any time, and they always ask for tens of thousands or tens of thousands of yuan every time. However, the aunt and the others don't want money by themselves."
"It's for Ren Yunlin. Ren Yunlin is Sister Yunshan's younger brother. She is twenty-eight years old this year, older than me. But she is too lazy and is idle all day long. But the aunt and the others spoiled Ren Yunlin to the sky. Even if Ren Yunlin has no job now, they don't say a word. They keep asking Sister Yunshan to ask for money to subsidize Ren Yunlin." Obviously, Su Ying doesn't have any good feelings for Ren Yunlin. He doesn't even say a word.
"There are still families that prefer boys over girls now?"
"There are always stubborn people who think that boys can pass on their family line. Daughters always want to get married. Once they get married, they will not take their surnames." Su Ying shook her head and pulled Li Mu to Su's mother.
"Auntie, what should I do?" Before Li Mu and Su Ying got closer, they heard Ren Yunshan's crying hoarse voice saying, as if Su Mu was her backbone.
"Yunshan, don't be anxious first. Come upstairs with me first, let's talk slowly." Su's mother patted Ren Yunshan's back and said softly.
"Auntie, I won't go up. Let my uncle know that it's not good. He is already disappointed in our family." Ren Yunshan shook his head, and had no intention of going home with Su's mother.
"You child, he is disappointed with your brother, not with you. In this cold weather, what should you do if you have a cold outside? Go back with me first, let's talk slowly." Su's mother comforted.
"That's right, Sister Yunshan. Come into the house and say it's very cold outside." Su Ying also stepped forward and held Ren Yunshan's hand.
In the end, Ren Yunshan was pulled upstairs by Su Ying and Su Mu, one by one. Li Mu had to follow the three of them. It was obvious that it was impossible to take a walk.
After arriving home, Su Ying, Ren Yunshan and Su Mu entered the bedroom. Li Mu had no choice but to sit aside and watch his mother play mahjong.
"Hey, this is the case every year, the second brother, why don't you understand that your sister Wang Ling? Boys and girls are all the flesh that fell off from their bodies. But her method is like digging their daughter's meat to feed their son. They don't care about their daughter's life or death." Su's father's elder brother looked at Ren Yunshan who entered the bedroom and said.
Wang Ling, whom the uncle mentioned, is Ren Yunshan's mother and Su's sister.
"Hey, what should I say? I have been talking about them for decades, but they just can't listen. Yun Shan is such a good daughter, hey. Forget it, today they are here, so I won't talk about these bad things." Su's father looked at Li Mei and Li Mu, shook his head, not intending to continue talking.
The uncle also knew that family scandals should not be made public, so he stopped the topic. However, Li Mu's heart was so upset. From Su Ying and Su's father's voice, Li Mu only knew that Ren Yunshan's parents favored boys over girls, and did not know anything else.
However, Li Mu did not ask questions, and planned to wait until Su Ying came out before asking Su Ying. After all, Su Ying would not hide anything from him.
Li Mei was also curious, but she didn't ask too much. Her in-laws were Su Ying's family. She didn't worry about it. If others wanted to talk, she would listen, but others didn't talk. She didn't ask much.
"Xiao Mu, how many games do you do?" Su's father saw Li Mu sitting there alone, intending to let Li Mu go to the table and play a few games.
"No, you guys play. I don't like playing mahjong very much, just watch you play." Li Mu waved his hand quickly. He really didn't have much interest in mahjong. Is he really good at mahjong because Li Mei sometimes has something to do, so he can go up and fight one or two games by himself. He learned it slowly.
I used to have no money and dared not play mahjong. Now I have money, playing mahjong cannot bring income. Unless necessary, Li Mu is unwilling to touch it.
This is the case in Sichuan and Shu. No matter where it is, I will gather together to play mahjong during the Chinese New Year. Not only during the Chinese New Year, I will play it in a year. As long as I have time, I will always touch it a few times. Mahjong is like the tradition of Sichuan and Shu, like hot pot.
When people hear Sichuan, the first thing they think of is hot pot and then mahjong. Just like when they hear SD, everyone can drive excavators everywhere. It is the same principle that people with nm can ride horses.
Li Mu turned on his phone and a sound came out. "I broke up, he is too stingy."
"What's wrong?" Another voice sounded from the phone.
"He is a Sichuan native, so he doesn't even give me a bear. Bah, scumbag." As soon as he finished speaking.
The uncle spoke, "Xiaomu, who is talking? Can x-cat still give it?"
"Uncle, no, this is just a joke. It's like a joke." Li Mu quickly explained. It's normal for such jokes to match the age of uncle and it's normal for uncle to not know about it.
Li Mu quickly plugged in his headphones and then watched the short video.
About an hour later, Su's mother pulled Ren Yunshan out. "In-law, you can play for a while. I'll go to my sister's house." Su's mother felt a little embarrassed, but Ren Yunshan was her junior after all. She couldn't leave it alone.
Li Mei nodded. "Yes, OK."
"Auntie, why don't I give you a gift? It's a cold day, I heard from Su Ying that you can't drive." Li Mu looked at Su's mother, and it was obvious that his mother was here. Su's father could not drive Su's mother. He could only give her a gift by himself.
"No need, just play at home for a while. I will come back soon after a few steps." Su's mother quickly refused.
"In-law, just let him give it to you. He can only play with his cell phone with him, so it's good to go out and take a walk." Li Mei persuaded.
"Auntie, let's go." Li Mu walked out of the door with the key. Su Ying also followed Li Mu. Seeing this, Su Mu nodded helplessly.
As soon as he got into the car, Ren Yunshan said, "Brother-in-law, I'm sorry, I'll make you laugh."
