076: Granny Wang

Wang Cheng didn't know that his parents had told his second auntie a shocking secret about him when he left. It didn't take long for the two parents to come and help move things. The rented house was relatively close to the new house, so this time they did not need to move all at once like the last time.

Wang Ziyu was still at home.

After moving things repeatedly three or four times, the larger pieces of furniture in the rented house were finally moved. Wang Cheng was ready to move the remaining small parts all at once. Wang Ziyu also helped, and after finishing, she held the little fragrant pig and went to the new home with her second brother.

There was still half a month before the deadline of the rented house, but they were staying there. The door was locked and the two left the house where they had lived for more than three months.

In the new house, Papa Wang and Mama Wang were tidying up. There were neighbors coming to help. Now, many people wanted to have a good relationship with their family. With their help, the two finally had time to rest and get older. Big and heavy jobs made them easily tired.

Fortunately, there were not many things in their home. Some of the furniture had been used for many years. There was some simple furniture made by Papa Wang after learning from others. Now they were moving to a new house. As the new house required a new ‘atmosphere’, after discussing, they decided to put in a new batch of furniture.

It was past three o'clock in the afternoon. Mama Wang cooked a pot of yam soup and invited the neighbors who came, to drink it. After drinking the soup, everyone left.

Wang Cheng was sweating from walking downstairs and upstairs. He didn't want to experience this kind of hard work moving for a third time. Busy from morning to night, he was tired enough to die every day.

"Chengcheng, you’ve worked hard. Come and drink a bowl of yam soup." Mama Wang poured him a bowl of yam soup. This was made with the local yams that the Guan’s Village had grown. It was much better than the yams sold outside. Apparently, these yams had another name. They were called yams, but the two were actually different. The medicinal value of this ‘zhunshan’ was higher than that of the yam, but in the Guan’s Village, it was commonly known as a yam.

Wang Cheng grunted and drank a bowl. After a while, Wang Ziyu and Papa Wang came over, and Mama Wang gave them a bowl each.

"Let’s stop here today and do the rest tomorrow." Mama Wang saw that everyone was tired, and she was the same anyway, so she decided to let them all rest.

Wang Ziyu ran back to her room after drinking the yam soup. The new house’s rooms were decorated according to her favorite style. When they were renovating, she hadn't yet gone to the Imperial Capital for college, so she often followed her parents to help. Now it was time to enjoy her achievements.

Mama Wang was leaving for the market to buy meat and other dishes for dinner. She returned to her room, took her wallet, and walked out the door. An old man with a cane stood in front of her, and the other party even called her by name.

Hearing this, the father and son sitting in the living room resting looked out. Upon seeing someone, Papa Wang immediately stood up and shouted at the other person, "Dad, why are you here?" Then he went to help him in. When he went out and saw his mother, he was again surprised.

 

The most unexpected thing about the arrival of the two elders was that they came for Wang Cheng. With the old man's attention and affection for the eldest uncle's family, it would be strange if there was no response after hearing about the morning incident. What was coming was probably a big test for his father.

Papa Wang invited the two old people in. Although the grandparents only loved the eldest family, they were his parents anyway. If they refused to let them in, they would inevitably be poked by others.

"Dad, mom, why did you come over here without saying a word in advance."

Compared to the enthusiasm of Papa Wang, Mama Wang and Wang Cheng were particularly indifferent. Papa Wang may not have been able to guess his parents’ intentions. As expected, the old lady said something that surprised Papa Wang.

"If you treat me as your mother, give up his contract to your eldest brother." Granny Wang glanced at Wang Cheng and gave a cold hum. From the moment she entered the door, her posture was very high, even her eyes looked down on them. She didn't even glance at Mama Wang. If it wasn't related to Wang Cheng, she would probably consider Wang Cheng as a transparent person.

"Impossible." Papa Wang rejected it without thinking.

Granny Wang was a little surprised. In her heart, she knew that the youngest son could never refute her from an early age, and even more so when he grew up. She had never seen him so resolutely refused her request, and she reacted angrily. 

“Aren’t I your mother? "

Papa Wang wanted to smoke again, but after considering that this was all family, he put up with it and said firmly, "I don’t agree to be your accomplice. The contract has been made, and unless my son agrees, I will not interfere. "

"You son-in-law!" Granny Wang accused.

Papa Wang was silent. Some things with a layer of affection could not be easily agreed upon. This was a matter of principle. Besides, he had also complained about the two elders in his heart, but never said anything. Now, this matter involved his wife and son. His son was even less likely to agree with her.

For the first time, Granny Wang realized the stubbornness of her youngest son. When she saw that he was really indifferent, she immediately turned her attention to Mama Wang. "Lanfang, if you still want to be my son’s wife, please persuade your son to give up the contract. I will forget the matter of digging my eldest son’s corner. "

Mama Wang sneered, "Dad, Mom, is this what he told you? Is he saying that we were digging in his corner? Do you believe what he said? Did he tell you that it was actually him who dug the corner? He himself was one step too slow, but ran to accuse Hongxin and Chengcheng, and now encourages his parents to come and ask for the contract. He really is a good uncle. "

"Do you attack Hongwei this way?" The old lady was so angry that she accused Papa Wang after, saying, "Look at the good wife you married. At first, I didn't agree with you to marry her into our family. You married anyway, and now dare not arrange the contract with your brother. "

Not to mention that it wasn’t okay before, but when talking about this, Papa Wang's resentment deepened. At first, there was a disagreement about of the division of the houses. The two elders only thought of the eldest son, and protected the second eldest son before the third eldest. In the end, he received nothing and even had a contradiction with his mother. Granny Wang insisted for him not to marry Guan Lanfang. If he married her, she threatened not to pay a penny. Although his father secretly gave a little money later, this left a mark on his heart.

"Lanfang didn't say anything wrong, it wasn't our fault at all." Papa Wang finally got angry.

Granny Wang’s eyes widened. 

"Mom, you haven't cared about me since I was a kid. You only thought about eldest and second brother, and gave them everything good. I only used what the big brother and the second brother didn’t want, even with the house matters. They picked first, but nothing came to me. Have you considered my feelings at that time? Your mind is only on the second and second elder brother. Could you not think of me? Since my childhood, you never put me in your eyes. I could tolerate it before. After all, you guys also gave birth to me. Now that I have my own family, I cannot let my wife, sons, and daughter be as angry as me. You have to let them go, they don’t have this obligation. I should have completed this obligation after all these years." Papa Wang said what he had wanted to say to his parents for many years.

"You, are you blaming me and your dad?" Granny Wang never thought that the youngest son would have such a big grudge against them. She really raised him for nothing, what a white-eyed wolf.

"Yes."

"You unfilial son, see if I won't kill you!" Granny Wang’s anger exploded with his answer. She wanted to hit Papa Wang with her husband’s cane, but Wang Cheng held it back. She never treated Wang Cheng as her grandson, as well. He was not her grandson anyway, so she did not give him good face, "Let go!"

"Old lady, I can't promise you this." Wang Cheng didn't honor her as his grandma. He had seen it when he was a kid. This grandma didn't like him. When he hadn't lived with the old monk, he went to the Wangs’ house every New Year. Granny Wang always thought he was transparent. The other children had red packets and sugar, but he didn’t. He once heard the old lady teach the other children to not pay attention to him. The old man was strange. At that time, he didn’t understand the bitterness of old age. He didn’t know why his wife did that to the child, and now he was too lazy to wonder. The old lady pulled the cane vigorously but could not pull it back. Instead, it was snatched by Wang Cheng and thrown away with his free hand. Without the weapon, the old lady had only her mouth. Just when everyone thought she had nothing left to do, Granny Wang sat on the ground and started crying.

A few people had gathered at the door for a while. When they saw this move, they muttered that the old lady was really fierce enough. It was really rare in the world to have such partial parents. "If I had such parents, I would definitely cut off relationships with them. The eldest son is their son, but the youngest son is not their son."

"Not only that, other people's families all care for their youngest son. When it comes to the Wang family, the eldest son is a treasure. Isn't it just starting a small company? What’s so great? It is estimated that the youngest son also has money."

Granny Wang’s howling again attracted a group of people to come and watch, one after another asked what was going on. Some others explained to them, and they immediately understood. The old lady dared to feel that this was a failure to achieve her purpose and wanted to play tricks.

At this time, Wang Cheng stood up they only heard him say to Papa Wang and Mama Wang, "Dad, mom, aren't you going to buy food? Go quickly, or it will be too late."

It took a moment for Mama Wang to understand, then she dragged out the father who hadn't responded yet.
