Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 1000: Feeling a Little Uncomfortable

Many people have said this before, but never before has Old Master Gu felt uneasy hearing Old Madam Gu say it again.

I wonder if my wife has been deliberately staying at my second son's place these past two days, leaving him alone at home to watch him make a fool of himself. But my eldest son is lying in the house.

The eldest son wouldn't blame his father for scolding him for deliberately not coming to the room to lie down with him, and he didn't even care when the eldest son was cursing and swearing.

No, the eldest son is very filial.

Sigh, why isn't the second son the eldest? He didn't find a good wife, but now he knows how to find a daughter-in-law. Even his mediocre in-law, Si Shunzi, has become a discerning person.

"Find me a decent set of clothes. Didn't you say that Sanya's father and uncles are coming? They're very particular, and we can't be impolite and not show our faces."

What more decent clothes do you need? Every single one of the clothes Sanya sent was perfect! Old Mrs. Gu pouted and turned back to the kang music cabinet, "Should we change all the clothes inside?"

"want."

"Then we'll have to wipe it clean—"

"No need, Yu Cai just wiped my body this morning." As he spoke, Old Master Gu smelled his own body and said, "I still smell nice, you can't even smell the medicine."

Indeed, what old man would still use scented soap at his age? Only Sanya makes scented soap. Alas, it was this scented soap that caused the trouble, and the second son caught her red-handed.

Thinking of how her eldest son had been caught by her sixth grandson for bringing scented soap as a gift to the Huang family, Old Madam Gu couldn't help but sigh again, fearing that she wouldn't be able to hide it from Sanya for another two months.

You can hide it from the first day of the month, but you can't hide it from the fifteenth. After Sanya finishes her double confinement period, how could Liulang not bring up the matter with her about why her grandfather wasn't there when the baby was on his way to the third-day celebration?

When San Ya finds out that the scented soap that was delivered was given to her eldest uncle by her grandfather to do favors, I wonder if San Ya will think, like the second son, that her parents are ungrateful.

It's her fault for getting senile; she only remembers that no one should covet the jewelry and ornaments that Sanya gave her as a sign of respect. Giving them away would inevitably make Sanya feel disheartened.

It should have been thought of long ago. The granddaughter-in-law is filial, but she is only filial to her and her husband. The eldest son's family lives under the same roof as the elderly couple. It's no big deal for them to use some firewood that the niece-in-law gave to the elderly couple. How could they take the precious soap so casually? They can just take what belongs to the eldest son's family.

She's getting old and confused. She doesn't understand why some of the things Sanya gave away only went to her and her husband. It's either her child being filial or her child testing her.

Maybe Liu Lang and San Ya said something, and San Ya was testing whether it was really true, as Liu Lang said, that not only did her husband favor their eldest son and son, but she also favored them.

If that's the case, then I'm afraid that after Sanya finishes her double postpartum confinement, it will be impossible for her to sincerely treat her as her own grandmother and be filial to her.

"Honey, the eldest son is home. Why don't you call him out?"

"Stop!" You want to call the eldest son out? Old Mrs. Gu glared at Old Mr. Gu angrily, "What are you going to say about the eldest son not going to the second son's place yesterday when he was at home?"

You think the eldest brother is living too well? Are you worried that Sanya's family doesn't know what he's up to? It's easy to mess with influential people; I can't even keep it from them. Don't cause trouble.

I had initially agreed with the eldest son that he should rest in the house first, and that after Sanya finished her postpartum confinement, we would set up two tables at home to invite the second, third, and fourth sons' families to have a get-together.

When that time comes, let the eldest son apologize to the second son, and let the eldest brother speak well of his second, third, and eldest uncles. Let's get the children over with this matter first.

As for the remaining feud between Liu Lang and Da Lang, let's wait and see. Not only does Liu Lang not want to reconcile with Da Lang, but Da Lang is still resentful and can't see Liu Lang doing well. Their grudge is too deep to be easily resolved. Fortunately, they are brothers from the same family, and Liu Lang values ​​his reputation; as long as Da Lang doesn't provoke him, Liu Lang won't completely break ties with him.

After listening, Grandpa Gu looked at the roof and thought for a moment, then glanced at Grandma Gu's face. Sigh, her face was so long. It seemed that he still hadn't been able to persuade his second son these past two days.

"What did your second brother tell you?"

Grandma Gu placed the clothes that Grandpa Gu had found on the kang (a heated brick bed), and glared at him, saying, "Thanks to you, the second son doesn't even bother to coax me anymore."

Last time I only said I deliberately didn't stop you, but this time I'll say it outright: I've known he's filial since he was little, and I'm deliberately crying to show him so I can control him. Do you understand what that means?

"...He even complains about you. This son has really drifted away from us."

"Yes, didn't I tell you? He came back with me in the carriage and kept talking about how I comforted him when he was little. He even got teary-eyed talking about it."

Thinking back carefully, it's no wonder the second son felt wronged. Old man, if the eldest son knew he owed the second son a lot, he wouldn't have brought up the past with me if he didn't want the eldest son to feel sorry for the second son.

I wasn't just wrong about the second child. Not only you, but I, as the mother, also favor the eldest. Otherwise, what's the point of secretly liking the second child? It's always the eldest who benefits.

Time and time again, I, as his mother, have lost count of how many promises I made to my second son that I never kept. No wonder my son complains. From now on, you won't need me to coax the second son anymore; even if you wanted to, you couldn't.

"Well then—" Old Master Gu was so frightened by Old Madam Gu's fierce glare that he stopped mid-sentence and blurted out, "Okay."

"I've never enjoyed a single day of happiness with you in my entire life, what more do you want from me! I don't care what you think, if you still want me to be your stepmother, I'll kill myself right here!"

"What nonsense are you spouting, you old hag? You might as well strangle me!" Old Master Gu opened his mouth, clicked his tongue, and said, "Have we never enjoyed a single day of happiness?"

Look at what's stuck in your head and what you're wearing. Sanya was Liulang's wife first, and Liulang is the second son. The second son is my son, right?

"I also deserve credit. You were the only one who could give birth to a second child. Without me, without the second child, there wouldn't be a sixth son. Okay, I'll listen to you then."

“Every time you say that, it’s all bullshit. Look at the mess you’ve made! Now I can’t even hold my head up high in front of my second son’s family!”

Tch, you're acting all wronged now. It's not that your eldest niece always bullies the second brother's family that the second brother's family dislikes you. But how can you say such a thing?
With that old woman's competitive nature, she dares to say it out loud, and if she does, she'll cause a scene. Unlike when she was younger, when she would make a fuss about going back to her parents' home, now she's the one who makes a fuss about going to the fourth son's house.

But the fourth son, that brat, isn't much better than the second son; he's even worse. That unfilial son even said last time that he's so old, why is he still bullying his mother?

Was it his father who bullied his mother?

It's unbelievable that unfilial son has the nerve to say that. Outsiders may not know, but how could the unfilial son not know that his own mother has always been the one in charge at home? Sigh, what a fate he has.

She gave birth to a litter of unfilial children.

Unable to win the argument or the debate, Old Master Gu turned his head to look out the window, and a thought struck him: "What time is it? Is Sanya's father almost here?"

Hearing this, Old Madam Gu subconsciously looked at the sky. It was already bright outside. "It's either Mao Shi (5-7 AM) or almost Chen Chu (7-9 AM). What other time could it be? You can make it. After you change and rest for a while, you can make it. Second Brother will definitely send someone to tell you before they arrive."
