Chapter 148 Old Ru Family
Chapter 148 Old Ru Family
New Year's Eve.
New Year’s Eve dinner at the Ru family.
Qin Caiying sat in the main seat, on her left was the eldest brother Ru Guoqiang, and the first person on her right was Ru Guoqiang's son, Ru Muchen.
The seating arrangement for the New Year’s Eve dinner is like this every year.
Feng Zhilan was no longer surprised.
So, every time she would consciously sit in the seat that others least wanted to sit in.
It's just a seat. If you sit too far away you won't lose any meat.
In Qin Caiying's eyes, Ru Guohua's family was the worst off.
According to the trajectory of the previous life, it is indeed true.
Ru Ya's uncle Ru Guoqiang is a section-level cadre in a large state-owned enterprise in the city. He sat next to Qin Caiying without putting away his official aura at all.
Ru Guoqiang's son Ru Muchen is a senior this year at a national 985 university. He is currently taking the entrance exam for graduate school at the same university and has a bright future.
My great aunt is the principal of a primary school in the city.
Every time this family of three came to Qin Caiying's house, they looked superior.
And Qin Caiying is also willing to promote them.
The eldest son, Ru Guoqiang, is Qin Caiying's most valued and most promising son.
The eldest daughter-in-law is the head teacher, so although she is more restrained in her husband's family, she always has a vague aura of majesty.
In addition, she gave birth to an outstanding only grandson.
So Qin Caiying never dared to show her displeasure to her eldest daughter-in-law.
The second daughter, Ru Yufen, is a married daughter. Although she married well, in the eyes of the older generation, a married daughter is like spilled water, and her good or bad has nothing to do with her parents' family.
The third child, Ru Guohua, has been driving a taxi to earn a hard-earned living, Feng Zhilan is a head nurse in an ordinary hospital, and Ru Ya finally got into an ordinary second-tier university.
The fourth brother, Ru Guoguang, has been a follower of the eldest brother, Ru Guoqiang, since he was a child, and he obeys his eldest brother's words.
So the two families are quite close.
Old Man Ru, Ru Ya’s grandfather, was an old worker in a state-owned enterprise.
The eldest son, Ru Guoqiang, is the son of a state-owned enterprise. After graduating from technical school, he was assigned to the company where the eldest son, Rutou, worked.
Through his own efforts, he rose straight up from the bottom of the society as a worker to become a middle-level cadre that everyone envied.
The fourth son also benefited from old man Ru. After old man Ru passed away, Ru Guoqiang made some arrangements and let Ru Guoguang take over and work as an ordinary worker in Ru Guoqiang's company. His wife Yan Jing was also an ordinary employee of the company. The two were introduced to each other by Ru Guoqiang.
It's strange to say, the crying child gets the milk, and it was the other two brothers who benefited from it, but only Ru Guohua did not benefit from his father's help.
However, Ru Guohua, who has always been hardworking, taciturn and never asks anything from his parents, has become the least favored one.
Qin Caiying's youngest son Ru Guoguang also gave birth to a daughter.
Although Ru Guoguang is 8 years younger than Ru Guohua, he listened to his elder brother and got married early. He gave birth to a daughter, Ru Yun, at the age of 22. Ru Yun is half a year younger than Ru Ya and is now in the second year of high school.
However, Ruyun did not study in the provincial capital. She attended a private boarding school in the city next to the provincial capital.
At that time, Ruyun's grades were not good enough to be admitted to No. 27 Middle School. If she wanted to go to No. 27 Middle School, she would have to pay tens of thousands of school selection fees like Ruya.
It just so happened that a private high school had just been established in the city next to the provincial capital. It was advertised well as having a strong faculty and advanced hardware facilities. As long as one passed their score line, three years of tuition would be waived. Ruyun's score just passed the line.
Whenever Ru Yun thought of her cousin attending No. 27 Middle School, every cell in her body was in resistance. She had been outshined by her cousin since she was a child in school. When people heard that her last name was Ru, they always asked what her relationship was with Ru Ya.
Until I found out that she was Ruya's cousin, the look in her eyes was obviously like, why is your cousin so beautiful, but you look like this?
She is obviously not bad, but in front of Ruya, she is always compared to a clown.
So she insisted on going to a private high school.
Ru Guoguang was wavering between sending his daughter to No. 27 Middle School or a private high school.
So I asked Ru Guoqiang for his opinion.
After Ru Guoqiang asked around, he found out that private high schools did have some real talent, so Ru Yun finally got her wish and went to a private high school.
Ruyun did well in the exam that year and was admitted to an ordinary first-class university.
By this comparison, Ru Guohua's family is definitely the worst off.
In the end, the third generation of the Ru family all got married and had children, only Ru Ya was still single.
They only see each other for a few days during each Chinese New Year, and Ru Ya has become the main topic of discussion at the Ru family dinners.
Although he was clearly laughing at her in his heart for being an older single woman, he still acted like he was doing it for her own good and urged her to get married.
They always appear to be understanding, but in fact they are laughing at others in their hearts.
Look, what’s the use of being beautiful? Can it make a living? You still can’t get married.
At the dinner table, there was a lot of harmony and toasting.
In her previous life, Ruya was still young and could not understand the swordplay between adults.
And now, Ruya, who is 32 years old at heart, sat down next to Feng Zhilan with great interest, and then, while eating melon seeds, she watched the uncles and aunts playing nice with each other.
Feng Zhilan glanced at her daughter. She wondered if she had seen it wrongly. Why did she see a hint of contempt and sarcasm in Ruya's eyes?
She looked over again and Ruya gave her a warm smile back.
I guess she must have seen it wrong just now.
My daughter is only eighteen years old. How can she understand the meaning of what the adults say?
However, it’s good not to understand. The extremely complicated relationships between adults should not involve children.
Just thinking of Ru Ya, Feng Zhilan's eyes flashed with sadness. From childhood to adulthood, she had never received love from Qin Caiying, a generation apart.
Then she changed her mind and decided that it didn't matter if she didn't have the baby. It was enough for her to have a mother like her and love her precious daughter well.
Besides, Ruya is her grandmother’s favorite.
Feng Zhilan comforted herself that the love of a grandmother who favored boys over girls was not that important!
Ru Ya looked at Feng Zhilan's eyes, which were sometimes dim and sometimes energetic, and she gently held Feng Zhilan's hand.
When she was young, she came to Qin Shuaiying's house and just felt that Qin Shuaiying disliked her, although she didn't understand what she did wrong.
But the child's sadness came and went quickly.
Her parents love her very much, and her grandparents also love her, so she doesn't really care whether Qin Shuaiying likes her or not.
Now that she looks at it from an adult's perspective, she realizes how difficult her mother's life was back then.
A difficult mother-in-law, trouble-making sisters-in-law, and an elder sister-in-law who actually gives bad advice to the mother-in-law.
Three women and one drama.
Under the deliberate harassment of these opera singers, and despite Ru Guohua's love, Feng Zhilan still walked on thin ice in her husband's family.
Fortunately, this time, Feng Zhilan had her by her side.
There was a flame of excitement flashing in Ruya's eyes. She wondered if there was a devil living in her heart. She was even looking forward to seeing these things happen.
She wants to see today who dares to embarrass her mother!
