I just want to live in peace

Chapter 39.

Sun Mingxi nodded ignorantly: "Mom, I will work hard. But, if I can't be a top person like Second Aunt, what about you?"

Ye Xiaodan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if you can't do it. Most people in life are ordinary people like father and mother. The number of people standing on the top of the pyramid like your uncle and aunt is too small. Mom just wants to tell you that when you are not good enough, people around you may bully you. And when you become very good, they will face you with the good side."

"These people are too powerful, just like grandparents." She said fiercely.

Ye Xiaodan rubbed her hair: "It's human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. People themselves hope to get close to excellent people. It's just that what your grandparents did is too inappropriate. Xixi, Mom didn't ask you to be a delicate self-interested person. I am an activist, my mother just wants you to be an excellent person and do a good job in a certain line of work. Otherwise, it will be too difficult for you to change careers when you reach your mother’s age. In real life, there are no such things as Prince Charming, Fugui, etc. The local tyrants come to rescue you from the sea of ​​suffering. You can only rely on yourself, and it is up to you to decide what kind of life you want to live."

Sun Mingxi nodded solemnly, and then said: "Mom, I will let you live a good life."

Ye Xiaodan knocked her on the head with chopsticks: "Mom's words are in vain. The only person you can rely on is yourself. Mom is the same. Mom is not yet 40 years old, and you are still in elementary school. When you work hard to make mom live a better life, mom At least fifteen or sixteen years have to wait. These years, why can't my mother work hard to live a good life?"

Sun Mingxi was puzzled: "Didn't Mom say that at your age, it is difficult to change your life?"

"It's difficult but you have to try hard! My mother has taken the legal professional qualification certificate before, but she always failed to pass it. Looking back, my mother still didn't work hard enough. This year, my mother plans to redouble her efforts and must pass."

"Mom is amazing, come on, mom."

Ye Xiaodan sighed: "Xixi, my mother majored in law. When she was in her 20s, she was a fool in her studies. She didn't work hard enough, so she didn't pass the exam. If she passed the judicial exam as soon as she graduated, she might already be a lawyer. It's a pity to open your own law firm like your Aunt Wu. It's too late for Mom to work hard now."

"Mom, didn't you say it's never too late to work hard?"

"That's words of comfort and encouragement. You have to remember that you have to work hard all the time. Xixi, mother knows that it is not easy for you to study. You get up early and stay late every day. However, the exam is the fairest system now. This is the key to success in life." Shortcut, mom hopes you won't take detours like mom in the future."

Sun Mingxi nodded vigorously, then worried again: "Mom, what if I'm not good at studying?"

Ye Xiaodan patted her: "It's really not that material, there's nothing you can do! You have to find a way that suits you, support yourself, and don't be bullied by others."

"Mom, you're so kind." Sun Mingxi leaned on her mother, made a love gesture, and posted it in Moments. "Huh? Mom, look. The little uncle and aunt posted on Moments, saying that new clothes will be available in the live broadcast room at [-] noon tomorrow. They are working hard now, not like they didn't do anything before." The little uncle and aunt in her mouth My aunt is Sun Xiangfeng and Li Li, the children of Sun Xiangyang's Tang uncle's family.

"It's been beaten by life." Ye Xiaodan snorted, and suddenly remembered, "Xiang Feng paid me 2 yuan for the goods. I have to go to inspect the goods quickly. He will start live broadcast at noon tomorrow, and he might not be able to make clothes. The store is open as usual, so I have to go. Xixi, I'm going to be busy tomorrow. Hurry up and go to bed."

Sun Xiangyang ate two mouthfuls of dinner casually, then stood in the yard and looked at Westinghouse.He hoped that his wife, Ye Xiaodan, would not worry about him and his parents, and came out to help them prepare meals for the vigil. As a result, he wandered back and forth in the yard, but his wife did not come out. He was about to hesitate whether to go in and see, when the light in the west room was turned off.Apparently, the wife no longer follows his family's custom of staying up all night and turns off the lights with her daughter to go to bed early.He stamped his foot and went back to the main room.

Dad Sun was watching the Spring Festival Gala. Seeing him coming back alone, he saw the silence outside.Today, he ate the most aggrieved New Year's Eve dinner in these years.In other words, there was no New Year's Eve dinner.For their New Year's Eve dinner, they only had a pot of Buddha Tiaoqiang, Eight Treasure Duck and some cabbage leaves.He couldn't swallow, moved his chopsticks hastily, and got off the table without even drinking the wine.These years, Ye Xiaodan has taken good care of them, even the braised pork and fried peanuts that he serves with wine are often prepared. Now, the refrigerator is empty.Only then did he realize that without the care of his eldest daughter-in-law, he wouldn't even be able to have a decent meal.However, he couldn't bear this face, and only hoped that Ye Xiaodan would take the initiative to come over and apologize.

The deserted New Year's Eve at Lao Sun's house lasted until dawn.

Sun's father and Sun's mother waited all night, but Ye Xiaodan did not come to apologize, so they were in a hurry.Father Sun winked at Mother Sun.

Sun's mother yelled at Sun Xiangyang: "Xiangyang, why hasn't your wife prepared the dumplings for the tribute? It's almost time, it's not good if it's late, the ancestors will blame it."

Sun Xiangyang looked at his mother in surprise: "It's become like this, you still expect Ye Xiaodan to make dumplings?"

Sun Ma took it for granted, "That was all yesterday. She has to do whatever she should do now."

"What is she supposed to do?" Sun Xiangyang thought about what his daughter-in-law would say would make it easier to come to his house, and understood.His parents completely use his wife as a nanny, thanks to his daughter-in-law who has been working for so many years and has no complaints.

"She has to make dumplings and prepare dishes for guests. As long as she is the eldest daughter-in-law of our grandson's family, she has to do it."

Grandpa came to his senses: "Yes. As long as your daughter-in-law lives with you, she has to serve us."

Sun Xiangyang stood up: "Mom and Dad, don't think about her serving you in the future. Just do whatever you should do!"

Just as Father Sun was about to ask, Mother Sun yelled, "Sun Xiangyang, has she divorced you? As long as you two don't have a divorce certificate, she will have to serve your in-laws."

Sun Xiangquan came out of the back room yawning: "Why are you arguing again?"

Zhang Jing said impatiently: "Keep your voice down, the child is still sleeping!"

Grandma quickly covered her mouth.

Suddenly there was resentment in Sun Xiangyang's heart: "Mom and Dad, you want to find a daughter-in-law to serve you, and Ye Xiaodan is not the only daughter-in-law in our family, so don't just point at her."

Zhang Jing's face sank all of a sudden, and her sharp eyes scanned Father and Mother Sun.

Father Sun and Mother Sun lost their arrogance just now and lowered their heads.

Sun Xiangquan was irritated: "Mom, you want to call your sister-in-law here to prepare dumplings for the tribute, right? You said that about her yesterday, why are you still asking her to work? Don't you know how to do it yourself?"

Grandma Sun yelled aggrievedly: "I am over 60 years old, you still expect me to work?"

"The neighbors in the neighborhood are all your age, and they do everything at home."

"Can they be the same as me? I have trained two college students and one Ph.D. They have made great contributions to my family!"

"No matter how great your contribution is, you can't do nothing." Sun Xiangquan didn't like her at all, so he turned to Sun Xiangyang and said, "Brother, please tell your sister-in-law carefully, save some meat and vegetables, it must be enough for a dumpling on the first day of the junior high school." !"

Sun Xiangyang nodded: "I'll try." As soon as he went out, he opened the curtain and was stunned.

Behind him, Sun Xiangquan saw Ye Xiaodan and Xixi standing in the yard, he was dumbfounded, and quickly approached with a smile: "Sister-in-law, Xixi, you got up really early, why are you standing in the yard?"
