BTTS 526




 Chapter 526. Not sending a penny


Of course Mother Weng understood. After all, with her son's history, she would not be willing to introduce her niece to him if she was Lin Qing He.

Weng Guo Dong's face expressed calmness.

At this time, Zhou Si Ni was holding her nephew.

The sister was born first. Then younger brother was born later. There wasn't much time difference between them.

Zhou Si Ni was delighted. Her nephew were really good-looking. His eyebrows weren't like Wang Yuan but rather like his uncle Zhou Yang.

While the twin sister, she received Wang Yuan's doting. Daughter looked like him. Especially her eyes, which looked exactly like his.

It can be seen from this that the two can pick even though the don't look alike. Both inherited their parents' strong points.

Knowing that it was dragon and phoenix twin, old Wang Family was overjoyed. Father Wang and Mother Wang came to see them. Father said it was hard on Zhou Er Ni and gave her a big red envelope.

Mother Wang gave red envelopes for her twin grandchildren. She didn't give Zhou Er Ni or said anything to Zhou Er Ni. Still, her attitude wasn't bad.

Zhou Er Ni didn't mind these and was polite.

With her sister present, no one else needed to intervene in her postnatal confinement. Zhou Er Ni managed it properly.

She was very busy. During the day, she took care of her sister and helped with the children. In the evening, she attended night school with Gang Zi.

Zhou Er Ni’s postnatal confinement was obviously not as good as before Zhou San Ni's. It wasn't lukewarm like before. Really cold at this time.

Zhou Xiao Mei and Mother Zhou often came over to help and the likes.

Especially Mother Zhou. She was greatly fond of the twins. It was Zhou Family's first pair of dragon and phoenix twins after all.

When Lin Qing He talked to Eldest Sister-in-law on the phone, she brought up all these things: "Si Ni girl is really swift. Whether it's San Ni or Er Ni, she handled it all by herself and took good care of her."

Zhou Er Ni called back to announce her good news after it was confirmed to be twins. So Eldest Sister-in-law had known that her second daughter was pregnant with twins. Still, Eldest Sister-in-law was ecstatic.

"Yang Yang called back a few days ago. I told him not to go home during the New Year and go directly to see his sister in the capital." Eldest Sister-in-law grinned.

"Now it's currently slack season, you and Eldest Brother can come over." Lin Qing He said.

"We won't go. Yang Yang going is the same." Eldest Sister-in-law smiled.

Naturally, a big city like the capital had nothing to complain about. But she and Eldest Brother can't adapt to it. They attended the wedding once and had broaden their horizon. They won't go over anymore. The travel expenses were expensive.

Let their son go. Their son understood more and he won't embarrass their daughter.

Lin Qing He didn't continue. Just assured her to not worry. Everything was fine.

Eldest Sister-in-law hung up. Only then, the village branch secretary's smilingly said, "Er Ni gave birth?"

"She had. Gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix twin." Eldest Sister-in-law grinned.

"Oh, she's really blessed. This husband's family must love her even more," the village branch secretary's wife responded.

Now that family planning was becoming strict, it wasn't easy to have more children. Of course, there were some in the village who drift. They go out to give birth. But the fines were too heavy.

It was really satisfying to be able to have a son and a daughter in one go.

Eldest Sister-in-law finished talking with the village party secretary's wife and went over to Second Brother's side to bring the good news.

After all, Zhou San Ni gave birth to a son for Li Ai Guo. No one called back last month. This time it passed back together.

Second Brother was overjoyed to hear that. It was only when Er Ni and Wang Yuan came back last time, did he realize that his eldest daughter was in poor health. And that she brought to the capital by old Fourth and Fourth's wife to see a doctor.

Right now, she safely birthed a big round boy.

Eldest Sister-in-law went home. While Second Sister-in-law pouted. Seeing that her man was so happy, she disgruntledly muttered: "Is there anything to be happy about? That daughter is a white-eyed wolf!"

She had a good life  and never thought about her family, right? Had she ever thought about taking care of her maternal family?

She had learnt from that person in fourth branch, severing relationship with her maternal family. Look how she changed her perfectly fine daughter?

"What white-eyed wolf? You're talking about Liu Ni, right?" Second Brother responded.

"I'm talking about your wonderful eldest daughter. She been to the capital for so long and with such high salary, she didn't send any of the money back. Raising her this big for nothing!" Second Sister-in-law scolded.

"Why would San Ni send money back? It's not like our family can't eat. What's more, San Ni is married. She must live her life with Ai Guo." Second Brother rolled his eyes.

"You only know to be on her side. I want to see what filial piety can she give you." Second Sister-in-law sneered.

She really had this thought and felt dispirited. She went to the capital to live a good life and didn’t make a call back to her maternal family. Not a penny was sent back to show filialness. This was how she pay back her family after raising her this big?

"Xia Xia is dating his master's youngest daughter. Our house is dilapidated. If Xia Xia brings her back, she'll disdain it. Let me see if you can still laugh out then!" Second Sister-in-law became more and more angry and threw out. 

Eldest son-in-law was still rich. Otherwise, how could he take out 400 yuan to marry San Ni back. She was expecting this daughter to help the family. But there was nothing. She didn't send any money back.

"Don't ask Xia Xia to bring her back this year. Our family should be able to get up next year." Second Brother said with a wave of his hand.

"Eldest Sister's brick house is spacious and bright. It was due to the money Sheng Mei sent back. Sheng Mei also called Sheng Qiang to go over. Look how promising Sheng Qiang is now? Theirs is a daughter. Ours is also a daughter. She only cared about herself!" Second Sister-in-law uttered.

"How is that the same? Sheng Mei married a rich man. While, what's San Ni and Ai Guo's conditions? Can they be compared? They can live a stable life in the capital because they receive care from Qing Bai couple. I heard from Eldest Brother that things are very expensive over there. Life isn't easy." Second Brother retorted.

"No matter how expensive things are, can they spend eighty yuan a month? What about the leftover? She don't want to send it back to help maternal family. Now we are the only one that haven't built a house. Isn't it embarrassing?" Second Sister-in-law argued.

Second Brother didn't want to fight with her on this. Second Sister-in-law was filled with anger. When Zhou Liu Ni came back, she saw that her mother's face was ugly and said, "What's wrong? Once I come over, you put on such depressing face."

"Thanks to your sister. She have a good life and won't call her maternal family. Nor did she send a penny back. Does she still have this maternal family in her heart?" Second Sister-in-law yelled.

Zhou Liu Ni coldly snorted: "Mother, you only know this now? My sister don't want to recognize her maternal family. She learned it perfectly from that person in fourth branch. Wants to deny all her  relatives!"

    2. Poor 2nd brother. He's married to a shrew and has a daughter that takes after her. I bet he's glad his married daughter isn't sending money back, otherwise it'd be one more thing his wife would fight him over....

    3. Ahhh.. I swear this much arguing and anger directed to the 2nd brother will affect his health someday, no harmony in household at all, both daughter and wife are shrews, better to divorce or sever ties

    5. Mother Wang need to get her act together. Yes, she dislikes Zhou Er Ni because of her background. But so what? her son was the one that pursued that her and they gotten married and she even gave birth already. Even if she doesn’t like Zhou Er Ni she should still show some restraint. In the future when the twins grow up…they’ll see everything. They’ll see that their grandmother doesn’t like their mother…that’s just going to cause a rifts between them. As for the second sister in law….beside the fact that she provided food and a shelter for her eldest daughter. Honestly what else did she do???? Absolutely NOTHING!!!
