212: Contrast

After the separation of the family, Zhou Hongmei's impression of Tao Yong was not as bad as before. Of course, it was just a little better. As for what would happen in the future, it depends on his performance.

This performance is not about Tao Yong's performance towards her mother-in-law, but about his attitude towards life and his wife.

As long as they live a good life, not to mention not giving New Year gifts, Zhou Hongmei will not say much, even if she never stepped into her house again.

Zhou Hongmei greeted the person in, but Tao Yong didn't buy anything. He bought two kilograms of meat and candy and gave another twenty yuan.

He naturally knew that according to the convention, he would always give New Year gifts in the morning, and he also wanted to come in the morning, but after knowing that his eldest brother-in-law and second brother-in-law had been here this day in the past, he changed his mind.

Although he didn't know what his elder brother-in-law and second brother-in-law would give him, he knew that it must be more expensive than what he gave him.

Without wanting to see the contemptuous look of the eldest brother-in-law and the second brother-in-law, Tao Yong changed the time and estimated that the time had passed when they almost left, then he came with the things they bought early in the morning.

"Mom, don't dislike me. I will do my best next year and make more money. I will be filial to you when the time comes!" When Tao Yong took out twenty yuan and handed it to Zhou Hongmei, he was still embarrassed, his face turned red, his head lowered, but his voice was as loud as a bell.

Zhou Hongmei took the meat and candy over, but pushed the money back.

Seeing this, Tao Yong quickly pushed it back and said hurriedly: "Mom, please accept it, I..."

"Take it back!" Zhou Hongmei said calmly before he could finish speaking, "There is no regulation on this year's ceremony. This is just a thought. As long as the thought is right.

You young couple have just split up and life is a little harder, so I won’t collect the money. Just like you said, when your life gets better, I will collect as much as you give! Take this money back, buy some New Year’s goods, and have a good New Year with Xu Yue!”

Tao Yong listened carefully to Zhou Hongmei's words and could easily tell whether these words were from sincere or superficial polite words.

Tao Yong suddenly thought of his parents. Xu Yue's temper was naturally not ready to ask him to send money to the Tao family. However, he thought about whether those people were his parents and brothers. Even if they were separated, those were still his relatives. Although they did something wrong, it was the New Year after all. Tao Yong thought about it and secretly gave them something to him on his back.

He was not favored by one, one was his parents, and the other was Xu Yue's parents. The things he gave were the same, two kilograms of candy, two kilograms of meat, and twenty yuan.

However, the same thing has completely different responses.

Zhou Hongmei confiscated the twenty yuan and asked them to buy some New Year's goods for a good New Year. But his parents saw the things he bought and the money he sent, but his mother was fine. When they saw the meat and candy, they smiled and squinted their eyes. But his father took the twenty yuan and scolded him for being ungrateful. He ignored his parents' lives and death, and said that he only cared about his own enjoyment when he was rich, and said that he was an ungrateful wolf, and gave him twenty yuan during the Chinese New Year.

After his father scolded, the original smile on his mother's face disappeared, and the eyes of his eyes at him were also full of accusations.

Without Zhou Hongmei as a comparison, Tao Yong felt that his father was as unreasonable as ever, and his mother Vivinono could not distinguish right from wrong.

But after comparison, Tao Yong suddenly felt uncomfortable. His parents had never considered whether his son, who had just left the family, would encounter any trouble? Will he be short of food and clothing... They only had one idea, that is, he gave them too little things.

"Okay, don't push it around, go back after dinner here!" Zhou Hongmei said without saying a word, stuffing him twenty yuan, for fear that he would refuse, so she deliberately turned her face.

Zhou Hongmei is still very scary like this. Tao Yong stopped talking immediately, but his eyes were red, indicating how complicated his mood was.

Tao Yong sat with Zhou Hongmei for a while, then went to the vegetable field in front and helped Xu Jianguo work together.

This is the first time, he takes the initiative to work for the Yue family.

Before, even during the busy farming season, he followed Xu Yue and avoided helping.

Seeing this, Zhou Hongmei didn't stop him. However, when cooking in the evening, she cooked all the meat he brought back, leaving half of it for food, and put the other half in a bowl for him to take it back to Xu Yue.

Tao Yong naturally disagreed. He ate the most at the dinner table, and now he takes another bowl away. So what else does it mean to give him this New Year gift?

Zhou Hongmei ignored him and stuffed the bowl into his hand.

"This is what you asked you to bring to Xu Yue, but you won't let you go back and eat! Why are you pushing me around and over?"

Tao Yong: “…”

In the end, Tao Yong took a bowl of meat home. When he passed by the old house, he happened to see his mother coming out of the house.

When his mother saw him, she glared at him with resentment, but after seeing the bowl in his hand, she came forward with a smile.

"You kid, why don't you get breakfast if you want to send meat? Our family has eaten!" While despising his son for being ignorant, Tao Po wanted to reach out to pick up the bowl full of meat in his son's hand.

But I was very happy. Even if most of this bowl of meat was put into the old man's mouth, it was not even her turn to take this bowl of meat back and stewed it again with a cabbage. She just had a good meal!

However, just as her hand was about to touch the bowl, her son suddenly retracted his hand behind him, allowing her to get empty-handed.

Tao Po’s face suddenly changed. He looked up and looked at his son in disbelief. What does this mean?

"Didn't this meat be sent to us?" asked the Tao Woman, carefully, afraid that the sound would be louder, so she scared the bowl of meat. Then, she saw her son nodding to her.

Pooh Tao was delighted.

"Just give it to me, and I'm still here to tease your mother? What's wrong with it?" The Tao woman rolled her eyes and said. After that, she reached out to get the meat bowl of Tao Yong's behind her.

But this time, she still couldn't get it. Seeing her step forward, Tao Yong took another step back and looked at his mother and said seriously: "This is what my mother-in-law left for Xu Yue! There is no way to give it to you!"

When Tao's face changed when she heard this, she could no longer see the smile on her face. Finally, she said with a calm face: "What did your mother-in-law leave for Xu Yue? If you don't want to give the meat to your parents, just say it, are you talking about these messy lie?"

Tao Yong looked at his mother deeply, and without saying anything, he turned around and walked towards the house they lived in with the village. He had a lot of reasons to say, but he felt it was unnecessary.
