Chapter 338: Chapter 338: Eating Hot Pot Meal 4

"I’m so angry precisely because I understand his nature! That rascal has gotten himself a wife and forgotten his mother, with only his wife and daughter in his eyes—us parents have become outsiders. It’s like raising that son was all for nothing." Zhang Guihua grew more and more infuriated as she spoke.

Jiang Dashan reminded her, as her words became increasingly improper, "Didn’t Eldest say he wanted us to move in with them?"

Zhang Guihua remembered this point, and her expression finally softened a bit.

"Humph, I’ll just stay in Stone Bridge Village, I won’t go anywhere! Eldest only makes twenty-three yuan a month, which sounds like a lot, but how can that support their family of three? His salary is hardly enough to support his own family, let alone if we two old ones tag along. Do you want to work your son to death?"

Zhang Guihua, although she scolded Jiang Changhai with her words, still felt a pang of heartache for him, concerned that she and her husband would become a burden to their son.

"Ah, but what Eldest said is true, being city folks is better than being country bumpkins at home," Jiang Dashan said with a low sigh, sharing his heartfelt thoughts with his wife, "Others in our village can probably only dream of this chance, but thinking about how they’ll only be able to come back for meals during festivals, my heart really can’t stand it."

Zhang Guihua nodded emphatically, feeling the exact sentiments, "I’ve always hoped for them to accomplish great things, but now that they’re about to achieve them and leave us, my heart starts feeling reluctant. People are just never satisfied, always wanting everything."

After saying this, Zhang Guihua fell silent, feeling upset.

Some time later, Jiang Dashan said, "It’s getting late, let’s sleep."

That night, the elderly couple did not sleep well, worried about their eldest son’s future life in the city.

And because of their jealousy over the eldest branch’s good fortune, the Third Branch couple also slept poorly.

So the next morning, all four of them woke up with dark circles under their eyes, looking tired.

Jiang Mianmian’s family and the second branch, on the other hand, slept quite well.

The first thing Jiang Changhai did when he woke up in the morning was to bring the honey he had collected from the mountains to his mom.

"Mom, this is the honey I bought specially for you. Have some to soothe your throat," he said.

Zhang Guihua turned and glared fiercely at him, ignoring the happy-faced Jiang Changhai, and went about her own business instead.

She remembered all too well how her eldest son had upset her yesterday.

But Jiang Changhai continued to coax her soothingly, "Mom, don’t be angry. Yu Cheng sent me a few pineapples from the Capital City a couple of days ago. When I get off work today, I’ll bring two back for you and dad to enjoy."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Guihua’s mood improved a lot.

Although she didn’t know what a pineapple was, just hearing that it was sent from the Capital City by Yu Cheng, she knew it must be something exquisite.

"What in the world is a pineapple?" Zhang Guihua couldn’t contain her curiosity and inquired from Jiang Changhai.

"Mom, a pineapple is a very rare and precious fruit that you can only find in the southernmost part of our country, and we only have a few," Jiang Changhai explained.

Zhang Guihua immediately lit up upon hearing this, "Oh, Yu Cheng is such a thoughtful child, sending us such precious fruit. You really didn’t save him in vain."

Seeing how honey and those pineapples made the old lady beam with joy, Sun Lixia couldn’t help but curl her lips disdainfully.

Pah, what a flatterer!

Zhaodi also rolled her eyes inwardly, thinking how biased her grandmother was towards Uncle.

After a night of being scolded, in less than ten minutes this morning, she had been cheered up again. Her grandma was truly wrapped around her Uncle’s finger.
