Chapter 182: Returning to My Mother's Home at the Beginning of the New Year

On the morning of the second day of the Chinese New Year, right after breakfast, Yang's mother pointed to a pile of things in the living room and said to Yang Yi, "Yizi, you can take these New Year gifts back later. You can stay longer at Ruoxing's parents' home today. You can come back after dinner."

Yang Yi nodded and thanked him, "Okay! Thank you, Mom!"

"By the way, isn't Brother Ruoxing getting married on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year? Go back and ask him if there's anything we can help with. If there is, don't be shy to ask."

The two families usually have a good relationship, but as the bride's family, especially those who love their daughter, they will consider their daughter and don't like to bother visiting her in-laws.

Therefore, Yang's mother specifically reminded Yang Yi that he must fulfill his duties as a son-in-law, and take the initiative to help his parents-in-law when they need help. He must not shirk his responsibilities, and must not let his daughter-in-law be caught between her husband's family and her own family.

In this regard, the Yang family has always done a good job, so whether it is the old lady's family or Yang's mother's family, the contacts are relatively close and the relationship is relatively good.

Influenced by his family, Yang Yi's character was also shaped by his family, and he attached great importance to Ou Ruoxing's family.

"Ruoxing, you and Yizi should take the two children back today and spend more time with your parents, okay? Don't rush back, your eldest brother is getting married in a few days. Go back home and ask your parents if there is anything they can help with. We must make this big wedding a lively and dignified one. Don't worry about burdening your family, okay?"

Worried that Yang Yi had not conveyed the message properly, Yang's mother pulled Ou Ruoxing aside and gave her some instructions again when Ou Ruoxing brought the two children downstairs.

"Mom, don't worry. If the need arises, I will not leave such a good resource of our family unused. Don't think I'm useless when the time comes~" Her mother-in-law's words touched her heart. Ou Ruoxing also knew that this was the truest thought in her husband's family's hearts, so she did not refuse. Instead, she hugged Yang's mother's arm and acted coquettishly.

Where can you find such a delicate and soft girl? Yang's mother, who had only one son for most of her life, was so moved that she raised her hand and gently rubbed her furry head, "You are smart, and daughters are better! Unlike Yizi, he was okay when he was a child, but when he grew up, he always had a cold face, as if he owed him a lot of money, not likable at all."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law kissed each other for a long time before they separated and went about their own business.

Originally, the second day of the Chinese New Year was the day for daughters to return to their parents' home to visit, but the Yang family was special, so they could only go back in batches.

Yang Yi drove Ou Ruoxing and the two children to the food factory staff quarters. The car drove directly to the downstairs of Ou Ruoxing's house and stopped.

Cars are still a rare thing nowadays, so if a car came into the staff housing estate, it would cause a sensation.

"Oh my! It's New Year's Day, which relative is so capable that he drives a car to visit us?"

"Yes! This car is a military vehicle. The person sitting inside must be an officer."

"Hmm? Looking at the direction, it seems to be heading towards the factory leader's house."

"Oh, who said it wasn't!"

Some idle people in the family compound saw the military vehicle coming in and began to discuss in groups of three or four while walking behind the vehicle.

"Oh! I remember now!" One of the ladies clapped her hands, "Didn't Deputy Director Ou's daughter marry an officer? She came back with her child a few days ago. Today is the second day of the Chinese New Year, so it must be their daughter and son-in-law who brought the child here."

After this reminder from the old lady, everyone remembered.

Among all the family compounds of the food factory, the daughter of Deputy Director Ou married the best. I heard that both her in-laws are military men and are high-ranking officials.

This made everyone in the courtyard extremely envious. They all wondered if they could get some connections and introduce a military partner to their daughters. Even if he wasn't a high-ranking official, it would still be good!

Soldiers receive allowances, and those who do a good job can be promoted. Their wives and children also have the opportunity to follow the army, which is much better than ordinary families.

Besides, it would be better to marry a soldier who knows how to care for others and go to the countryside.

Which of these city kids has ever done farm work? If they go to the countryside, they will suffer a lot.

If they go to a bad place, the girl will either be forced to marry the big man in the village, or become thin and dark due to exhaustion, and still not have enough food to eat or warm clothes to wear.

It would be better to find someone to marry. Although it is not easy to make a living in the husband's family, it is better than going to the countryside with no hope.

Yang Yi and Ou Ruoxing didn't know what they were thinking, but even if they knew, they wouldn't say anything. They were all doing it for their own children, so there was no right or wrong.

Who would choose something worse when they can get something better?

"Mom and Dad, we're back!" As soon as they got off the car, they found Mr. and Mrs. Ou standing in front of the family building, and Ou Ruoxing hurried forward and shouted.

"Hey! I'm glad you're back! It's so cold, go upstairs quickly, don't freeze to death!" Fan Xiulan said as she took the little girl from his arms.

Father Ou was also jealous of his grandson. When he saw the little guy in Yang Yi's arms, he quickly stepped forward to take him and hugged him, coaxing him, "Oh, grandpa's little darling, do you miss grandpa?"

Ou Xuyao ​​was a step slower. Although he was also jealous of his little nephew, he didn't dare to compete with his parents for it. He could only rub his nose and go forward to help move things.

The people who were following were shocked again when they saw so many things being carried down from the car.

Look at how generous the in-laws of Deputy Factory Director Ou are. Not only do they visit each other frequently, but when their daughter and son-in-law come back to visit, they bring so many gifts that they have to carry a bag on each side and a bag on the right side. They even need help from the family to carry them all in one trip. Which daughter has such generous in-laws!

Of course, there are some people who suffer from conjunctivitis.

"Humph! This is a thief in her husband's family! She brought so many big and small bags and so many things back to her parents' home. I'm afraid she might have emptied the house! Who knows, one day she might be kicked out by her husband's family. Which husband's family would like to keep a thief like this?"

"Hey! How can you talk like that? You are so stingy that you don't allow your daughter-in-law to go back to her parents' home, and you even take care of her in other people's homes. How can you be so shameless?"

"That's right! You make it sound like everyone is a wicked mother-in-law like you who bullies their daughter-in-law. Oh my, you just can't stand seeing other families doing better than they are!"

This person is also a weirdo in the family compound. After his son got married, he acted like a mistress. He doesn't do housework, doesn't take care of his grandchildren, eats everything without leaving any, is incompetent at anything, and likes to give orders. He always beats and scolds his daughter-in-law.

It's unlucky for this girl to marry into their family.
