Traveling through books in the 70s: The group favors the Wang family’s little koi carp

"What do you think?"

What Hu Dongju said were not questions.

She flipped over what she had just said: "If you knew this, you'd be surprised. When the villagers first came here, they didn't even say they would send Youyu to the police station."

"The old man called you right after he complained. Why do you think he chose that time to call you?"

"Isn't it because I want to take advantage of the most sympathetic moment to force you to agree to take over and take care of him in front of the villagers?"

"Youyu was not good to him. His elder brother and sister-in-law are nowhere to be seen. The old man in Xinjiang has no face to let others take care of him in old age. Tell me, who is left in the family?"

"Who else can the old man count on? It would be strange if he doesn't put his idea on your head."

"If I hadn't suddenly spoken out and made things worse for the old man, the villagers would have most likely persuaded us to take over this hot potato."

Hu Dongju looked at Shen Sanhe who suddenly understood.

With such a big head, how come you don’t show off at all?

Hu Dongju: "And just now, when the old man asked you to find the old party secretary, you just go to the old party secretary. You don't want to think about what you will do if someone finds you!"

"The old man was determined to send Shen Youyu to the police station. The old party secretary is an outsider and he is not willing to get involved in our family's troubles. You have to let others intervene. Do you think he can listen? Can you still persuade the old man?"

Shen Sanhe said stubbornly: "I can definitely persuade him! The old party secretary has always tried to persuade me to make peace."

Of course, he was tough-talking, but he also knew in his heart that if the old party secretary really couldn't persuade the old man, he would definitely listen to the old man.

After all, he is not the eldest grandson of someone else's family. He is a very cruel grandfather, so there is nothing he can't bear to do.

Seeing that his confidence was getting weaker and weaker, he finally dropped his head and stopped talking.

Hu Dongju reached out and patted his forehead.

Gritting his teeth: "You should be more careful anyway. Yu Yu can't be sent to the police station if he is beaten to death. If he leaves, it will be the two of us who are unlucky. Remember this."

"No matter how angry you are with him for abusing the old man, you can't really be punished and run away. As a third uncle, you'd better control yourself."

Shen Sanhe was trained like a grandson, so he couldn't help but nod: "I understand."

"My wife should think more comprehensively, otherwise I will definitely beat that little beast tonight."

I couldn't bear to hear him say this.

Anyway, Hu Dongju thought she had already done everything she needed to explain, and her man should be aware of the rest by now.

Looking at the main room, Hu Dongju said: "Then I'll go back first, so as not to miss him for a long time and the old man will think that I am not too generous to care about him."

You still have to do enough to show off.

"Just remember our division of labor. You are responsible for selling waves so that Shen Youyu can be stabilized. With him here, we will have less burden."

"I'm in charge of the old man's side. I can guarantee that he will completely give up the idea of ​​sending Shen Youyu to the police station."

hear here.

Shen Sanhe suddenly remembered something: "Yes, Dong Ju, tell me quickly, how did you make my father give up his mind and change his mind just now?"

"How stubborn is my father? I thought he couldn't let that boy go, but you went over and said a few words."

"The old man changed his tune?!"

Shen Sanhe still feels strange when he thinks about it.

He doesn’t know who his father is?What you have decided in your heart has never changed.

Regardless of whether he was really cruel this time or just out of anger, he said he would send Youyu to the police station, but Shen Sanhe never thought that they could persuade him to come back.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought that Ma Zhao was going to the old party secretary to bring in reinforcements.

But she didn't expect her daughter-in-law to say a few words and directly make the old man change his mind.

Simply divine!

Shen Sanhe lowered his voice: "Daughter-in-law, what on earth did you say?"

"Is it possible that you made a promise to the old man that if you don't send Yuyu to the police station, we will help take care of the old man in the future?"

Apart from inducements, Shen Sanhe couldn't think of any other way.

After all, the old man didn't even take it seriously when he said it would make the villagers laugh if it got too big.

I don’t even care about face. If I try to persuade him seriously, how can I possibly persuade him?

Unexpectedly, he was still struggling with this.

Hu Dongju shook her head and laughed: "I don't guarantee anything. You don't know who I am? I don't take any responsibility for suffering."

Shen Sanhe wondered: "Then how did you convince the old man? The old man doesn't even care what the villagers think."

Hu Dongju snorted: "It's impossible for an individual to be without some scruples."

"The old man is not afraid of what people in the village think of him, which shows that his weakness does not lie with outsiders."

Not in outsiders?

Shen Sanhe muttered in his heart.

"It's not about strangers, it's about caring about..."

As if he thought of something, he took a sharp breath.

Covering his mouth: "You mean...you moved it out for the old lady?"

Hu Dongju smiled and nodded, thinking that he was not completely stupid.

She explained: "The old man is not afraid of making the villagers laugh, but he may not be afraid of embarrassing himself in front of Aunt Cai."

"To put it bluntly, the old man has lost all his face in this position. What he wants most is to be able to compete with Aunt Cai, turn the tables and retain the last bit of dignity."

Although this dignity is not 'respectable' at all, even if it is just self-deception, the old man is not willing to suffer from Mrs. Cai's jokes anymore.

After being Old Shen's daughter-in-law for so many years, Hu Dongju knew that Old Shen was a bit arrogant.

For Old Man Shen, the fact that his and Old Mrs. Cai's statuses have been reversed is enough to make him feel uncomfortable.

Seeing that the ugly old woman who I didn't take seriously before is now so beautiful.

Even though he knew that the two of them were at odds now, he still wanted to avoid being so embarrassed in front of the other person.

The face I lost in the past was forced to lose.

Old Shen was powerless even if he wanted to argue.

But this time it was different. This time the initiative rested with him. As long as he had the will, he would have the ability to avoid being embarrassed and even regain some face.

how to say?

Hu Dongju briefly summarized: "I told the old man that it would be better if Aunt Cai heard about it when he came back next time, laughed at him, and felt that even his grandson didn't want to see him."

"Why don't we simply deny the existence of this matter and say that it is a misunderstanding and that the villagers have misunderstood the rumors. This way we can not only save face, but also rely on this 'handle' to control the situation."

"Let Youyu feel guilty, because he is afraid that the old man will bring up the old things again and send him to the police station. Youyu must do his best to take care of the old man from now on."

"When Aunt Cai comes back, the joke I heard was just a misunderstanding. The old man himself didn't admit it. But what I actually saw was that Yu was doing his best to take care of the old man."

"I'll tell the old man, if you think about it like this, isn't it good? In terms of filial piety from his descendants, he, Shen Honglin, is not hypocritical at all in front of Cai Guixian."

Hu Dongju's smile deepened: "The old man is not stupid. If you think about it like this, how can you continue to argue that you should be sent to the police station?"

"You can only vent your anger for a while, and you will have to be laughed at by the old wife who wants to 'wrestle' you most for who knows how long."

"You will end up in a miserable old age and have unfilial descendants."

"But as long as I let you go this time, even if it's just a pretense, in order to clear my reputation of wanting to kill my own grandfather, I can pretend to be filial in front of everyone."

"In the end, isn't it the old man himself who benefits, is filial, envied, and gets a reputation?"

Hu Dongju gently tapped the basin in her hand with her knuckles.

Very proud: "If I say this, won't this matter be done? It's not as hard as you think, and it's embarrassing for the old party secretary to come back."

Shen Sanhe didn't know how to praise his wife.

He said that his wife’s brain would be useful no matter what time she came up with!

Just relying on a few words, without promising anything like what he wanted, I convinced the old man...

"Cow, real cow."

He was so excited that he rubbed his wife's face vigorously.

Shen Sanhe: "Let me think about it, are you killing two birds with one stone?"

"It not only stabilizes the old man and makes him let go of Yu Yu, but also forces Yu Yu to have to compete for performance in the future and have to serve the old man."

"In this way, we don't have to help each other anymore. Not only do we have time to hide, but we can also make Yuyu be grateful to us..."
