Chapter 883: The Innocent Zhang
Chapter 883: The Innocent Zhang
But why be unhappy?
Just because the kid’s grandfather wants to help?
For the first time, Li Sanlang felt a little "complaint" against Zhang.
Although the family has been separated, this is also the business of the entire Li family. Isn't my son also a child of the Li family?
If I let people know that my son is getting married, but my son's grandfather wants to help and arrange things but can't, how can I live my life?
"Mother, it doesn't mean that we can just go back to the Li family's old house and live there after the old man has arranged things for us. The old man is old and likes to be lively and bustling. He wants to come and help. No matter what, our son is his grandson. Is this not okay?"
Zhang looked at Li Sanlang as if he was questioning her, and the emotions that had been choking in her heart all these years suddenly burst into flames again.
I had been thinking that since the children were all here, I had to give him as a father some face and not embarrass him, but I couldn't care less about that now.
"You mean, I'm unreasonable? I have no humanity, I'm not filial, I'm a vicious daughter-in-law, and I don't deserve to live in your Li family? Huh?" Zhang stood up and asked loudly.
Li Sanlang was stunned. He didn't expect Zhang to explode suddenly.
In fact, Li Sanlang was not the only one who was surprised. Li Mingxia was also shocked. He quickly stood up and helped Zhang sit down.
"Mom, calm down, don't be angry, you're pregnant!"
Although Li Mingxia wanted to watch the fun and see Zhang teach Li Sanlang a lesson, the prerequisite was that neither Zhang nor the baby in her belly could be harmed.
Zhang was so angry just now that her head was hot and she totally forgot what was on her mind. When the girl reminded her, she broke out in a cold sweat and slowly sat down with the girl's support.
The little bit of resentment in Li Sanlang's heart was now frightened away. "Mother, if you are angry, just scold me, but don't be so startled. If I get angry, it will be all over!"
Zhang is also afraid now, but the more afraid she is, the more angry she feels.
Who is it all because of?!
"Li Sanlang, you don't have to change the subject. If you hadn't said those words, would I be so angry? Why are you pretending to be a nice guy in front of me now?"
"Don't you keep saying what the old man is like? Okay, now tell me a definite answer. Is the old man the only one who wants to come and help? Speak!"
Zhang was indeed the person who knew Li Sanlang best. It was impossible for Zhang to react so quickly on other matters, but on this matter, Zhang had already made a general guess without even needing Li Sanlang to explain it clearly.
"The old lady is the child's grandmother, and she must be thinking about him. This is the first grandson in our Li family. No matter what, she is the child's mother, and this is the only time in the child's life. The old man speaks so pitifully, but what can I do?" Li Sanlang looked at the aggressive Zhang and said with a chuckle.
He could firmly refuse other things, but in this matter, looking at Mr. Li's gray hair and crying voice, Li Sanlang could not say a word of disobedience.
"Forget it, Mom. Since my grandpa wants to join in the arrangements, then just come over." Li Mingxia sighed and said.
Li Mingxia was also helpless, but what could he do about it? Even if the family was separated, there was no reason to not let the grandfather attend his grandson's wedding, right?
If this kind of thing gets out, no one will ask about the cause and effect. They will just say that their family is unkind and inhumane, and simply insane.
It sounds ridiculous, but it's true.
When everyone thinks that something should be done in a certain way, the past things will be forced to be written off, and people will instinctively sympathize with the weak.
Li Mingxia's family is living a better life now. People in the village don't say anything, but everyone has eyes and is watching them.
So even if Li Mingxia didn't want to compromise, he had to compromise in the end.
And looking at Li Sanlang's expression, if he really disagrees with this matter, he will probably feel very uncomfortable. Then, will the eldest brother think that all this is caused by him and feel even more unhappy?
So after much thought, "making a concession" is the best solution for now.
Hearing Li Mingxia say this, Zhang opened her mouth and looked a little conflicted, but in the end she chose not to speak.
In fact, her anger and dissatisfaction were mostly because the people in the Li family’s old house treated her children very badly. But now the children chose to give in out of consideration for her and Li Sanlang, which really moved and saddened Zhang, and therefore her anger towards Li Sanlang became even stronger.
"That's it." Zhang said unhappily.
I originally thought that this matter would end happily, but I didn't expect that the hesitation on Li Sanlang's face became more obvious.
Zhang didn't notice anything unusual because she was unhappy with Li Sanlang, but Li Mingxia saw it clearly.
Could there be something else going on?
That was really a bit unbearable.
"Dad, since things haven't been settled yet, just tell me whatever you want to say. If you keep half of it to yourself, you won't be able to report to your superiors if things aren't done well later, right?" Li Mingxia sat on the chair. He thought that today's matters should be easily resolved. According to the plan, he should be cooking pigeon soup in the kitchen by now. He didn't expect that there would be so many "unexpected situations".
Li Mingxia's words were extremely sarcastic, even rude, and even Li Sanlang could hear it. Li Sanlang looked at Li Mingxia and wanted to ask her how she could talk to him, her father, like that, but the words seemed to be blocked by an invisible hand, and he couldn't say a word.
"My daughter is asking you a question. If you have anything to say, just say it now. If it's okay, it's okay. If it's not okay, it's not okay. If you say it now, we can still discuss it. After today, everything is settled. Even if the king says it, it will be useless!" Zhang turned her head away after hearing what Li Mingxia said, but she didn't take it seriously. After all, in Zhang's mind, she had already made such a big concession, and no one should be so thick-skinned as to say anything else, right?
But she obviously underestimated the people in the Li family's old house, and also underestimated Li Sanlang's filial piety towards Mr. Li and Mrs. Zheng.
In fact, it was not Zhang's fault for being "careless". It was just that Li Sanlang had been performing too well these days. Zhang felt that her husband no longer cared about the people in the Li family's old house, so she had such a naive idea.
