Chapter 24
·No matter
Dong Yuluo said from the side, "My grandmother is very good to me. I remember her being very busy every day, but she would still come to check my homework frequently. She has high demands on her children and even higher demands on me. She has to set homework every day.
I was asked to complete it, but it was almost impossible. Later, I spent a lot of money to hire an old nun who was said to have served noble people in the palace to teach me the rules, but I was tortured to death."
This was true, but her tone was full of happiness, and there was no trace of complaint.
Mrs. Tang smiled and said, "Your grandmother has been strong all her life. You grew up with her, so you are naturally more strict. How is your father's health recently?"
"It's not bad." Dong Yuluo said with a smile, "What can be wrong with him? The shopkeepers are busy with the things in the store. He only goes to check the store occasionally. He usually raises birds and plays chess. He got married the year before last.
Auntie, he is probably the most leisurely person in the entire Dong family."
Mrs. Tang was slightly startled, "How can it continue like this? Although the Dong family is now prosperous, they also came from poor times. As the old saying goes, wealth can only last three generations. No matter how strong the family foundation is, they are afraid of this child who does not want to make progress. Your father
Doesn't your grandmother care about this?"
Dong Yuluo shook his head, "My grandmother didn't care. Not only did she not care, she didn't say a word of reproach. My father was a little worried that he would be taught a lesson by my grandmother for this. Later, when he saw that my grandmother didn't say anything, he became bolder and opened the shop.
Just don't go there that much. Mrs. Liang is a very thoughtful person, and she has established herself in the Dong family because she gave birth to a son and a daughter. Later, she decided to give her father one of her dowry maids as his aunt, Aunt Zhou.
A flower-like figure, beautiful, gentle and considerate, she soon became her father's favorite. Relying on her father's favor, Aunt Zhou no longer respected Mrs. Liang as she did before. Mrs. Liang was also a ruthless person.
After playing the role, her father immediately married the daughter of the second shopkeeper of the Dong family store as his aunt. Although this Aunt Wu was not as beautiful as Aunt Zhou, she was younger, lively and cute, and her father was so fascinated that she soon fell in love with Zhou.
Auntie Zhou was forgotten, and Mrs. Liang took the opportunity to repair Auntie Zhou. Now their yard is like an opera every day, and it's so lively."
Mrs. Liang is the second son of Dong Yuluo's father, and she is also a well-known local family in Suzhou. In the past, nouveau riche like the Dong family would never look down on them, let alone being a second son for others. However, the Liang family was in bad luck, and there was no one in the family who could support the family.
His business was not going well, and he gradually became unlucky. Later, when he learned that the fourth master of the Dong family, the first wife of Dong Yuluo’s father, died of illness, he licked his face and asked someone about the Dong family. Mrs. Dong was not very happy at first.
Satisfied, she felt that the Liang family had a bad family tradition. However, Fourth Master Dong was willing, and Mrs. Dong reluctantly agreed. Since Mrs. Liang came in, she not only spoke softly and kindly to Fourth Master Dong, but was also extremely polite to Dong Yuluo, but Mrs. Dong
She still didn't like her very much and didn't give her a smile every time they met, which made Mrs. Liang very uncomfortable. Fortunately, she gave birth to her eldest son soon and thought she could breathe a sigh of relief in front of Mrs. Dong. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Dong
The most indispensable thing is her grandson, and her lukewarm attitude towards her is far inferior to the care she gives to her eldest daughter-in-law.
Mrs. Liang was suffocating and couldn't say much. She could only blow pillow wind in Fourth Master Dong's ear, but Fourth Master Dong couldn't lift it. Although he was Mrs. Dong's youngest son, his ability was not as good as Dong's.
The eldest master of the family is not as smart as the second master of the Dong family, and his reputation outside is not as good as that of the third master. He is just an idler being raised by the Dong family.
Mrs. Liang could only sulk by herself.
Mrs. Tang patted the back of her hand dissatisfiedly, "You kid, how can you talk about your father like that?"
"Hehe." Dong Yuluo winked playfully, "Of course I won't say it in front of outsiders. It's not a glorious thing. You are the only one here. You are my grandmother, one of the people who loves me the most in the world. I
What can’t I say to you?”
In one sentence, Mrs. Tang made Mrs. Tang feel as comfortable and comfortable as if she had drank hot water for three to nine days. She smiled and said, "Mrs. Liang's method is probably just a trick in the eyes of your grandmother, so she won't intervene."
Tube?"
"I don't care." Dong Yuluo said in a clear voice, "Not only does he not care, but he is also somewhat happy to see the results."
"What are these words?" Mrs. Tang's face changed drastically. She grabbed Dong Yuluo's hand and said excitedly, "What does your grandmother mean? Does she want to raise your father to death?"
Although Mrs. Tang despises her eldest son-in-law, he is the father of her granddaughter. If he loses power, it will have a great impact on Dong Yuluo. Moreover, Dong Yuluo has not yet been engaged. If his future in-laws find out, even the marriage will be affected.
Influence.
Dong Yuluo didn't expect her reaction to be so big, and hurriedly comforted him, "Don't worry, it's not as serious as you said. No matter how bad he is, he is still my grandmother's biological son. His reputation is really bad. How do outsiders view the Dong family?"
Besides, he is already this age, and his character has been developed for a long time. Even if my grandmother wanted to cripple him, he is not a child who knows nothing and is not sensible. How could he be crippled? In recent years, my father has been acting in an incompetent way.
It's a bit unreliable, and the store's efficiency isn't necessarily that good, but nothing major went wrong, and my grandmother is keeping an eye on it."
"Then what does your grandmother mean?" Mrs. Tang felt that the matter was not that simple. She frowned and asked, "Your grandmother is a very powerful person. She must have her own motives for doing this. You kid, don't hide it from me. Hurry up.
Tell me the truth."
Dong Yuluo smiled slightly and said frankly, with no one around him, "My grandmother may want to divide the family while she is still strong."
"What?" This shocked Mrs. Tang, and there happened to be a thunder outside. The horse was frightened and started to rush forward. If the driver hadn't been quick and quick to grab the reins, it would have hit the tree on the roadside.
Even so, the carriage shook for a while. Mrs. Tang and Dong Yuluo were unprepared and both fell against the wall of the carriage.
Dong Yuluo quickly held on to his body and stabilized Mrs. Tang, but she still hit her hard. Dong Yuluo quickly asked with concern, "Grandma, how are you? Did the bump hurt?" He frowned and shouted with an unhappy expression.
He scolded, "How did you drive the car? Who asked for it?"
The coachman outside was hired and was afraid of hurting the noble people in the car. Hearing the sound, he quickly stepped forward to apologize and tremblingly asked for instructions, "The thunder frightened the horses. Are the old lady and the young lady okay?"
Mrs. Tang waved her hand and said, "It's okay. You can drive in peace."
The driver finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Dong Yuluo's little face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and she was obviously very angry. When Mrs. Tang saw her like this, she knew that she was used to being bossy in the Dong family and could not bear the slightest grievance.
She lowered her voice and said, "It's hard to go out on a rainy day like this. You don't have to blame him. They all work hard to earn a living."
Dong Yuluo's expression softened a lot.
Mrs. Tang added, "Tell me carefully, why does your grandmother want to separate the family? What happened to the Dong family?"
