Chapter 53 Jia Dongxu: Whoever regrets is the grandson

In the living room, Wang Mengde was teaching his two younger brothers when Wang Weiguo suddenly burst into tears.

"Weiguo, what's wrong with you?"

Ran Xiaomei and He Shengnan, who were preparing to cook, immediately put down their work and came over to check what was going on.

"Wow~~~, the North Koreans hit me twice with their guns, and I only hit me once." Wang Weiguo said while crying.

After hearing his words, Ran Xiaomei and Wang Mengde's faces changed drastically, their hearts sank, and they thought to themselves, this is going to be big trouble.

He Shengnan didn't understand the situation. She stepped forward, touched Wang Weiguo's head and whispered to comfort him: "Be good, Weiguo. Just hit him once. Don't cry."

As he said this, he was about to take a towel to wipe his tears.

"No, no, I want to fight twice like the Korean War did, wuwuwu~~~" Wang Weiguo waved the wooden pistol in his hand and cried stubbornly.

He Shengnan tried to coax him for a long time, but it was to no avail. Instead, Wang Weiguo cried even more sadly.

She raised her head, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and looked at Wang Mengde for help.

Wang Mengde shrugged and said that he had no other options. His two younger brothers were typical examples of "not worrying about having too little but having unequal distribution of things". Since he could remember, the two had often fought over things.

The three people took turns to coax him. No matter what they said, Wang Weiguo always said, "No, I want to fight like Yuan Chao, too, woo woo woo~~~."

He Shengnan fully realized the horror of twins.

Half an hour later, Wang Weiguo's crying had become weaker, but he showed no sign of stopping. He kept retching and almost vomited from crying.

After thinking for a while, Wang Mengde put Wang Weiguo on the bed, and gently rubbed several acupoints on his body with his hands.

Soon, he, who was already extremely tired, slowly closed his eyes, sobbing from time to time in his sleep.

Seeing that he finally fell asleep, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, acupuncture with silver needles would have a better effect, but he generally would not use it unless it was absolutely necessary, for fear of causing adverse effects on the body.

In the living room, He Shengnan sat on a chair with a tired look on her face. In the past half hour, she felt more tired than a whole day of work. It was not physical fatigue, but mainly mental exhaustion.

Ran Xiaomei also sat there, pressing her brows.

Next to him, Wang Mengde was pressing the same acupoints on Wang Yuanchao. Wang Weiguo had them, so he had to have them too.

"Mom, was it always like this during the Korean War and the Defence of the Country?" After drinking a sip of water and resting for a while, He Shengnan regained some energy and asked curiously.

"They have been like this since they can remember, competing with each other. No matter what is different, they will think that the other person's is better and that they are at a disadvantage."

Ran Xiaomei explained with a wry smile.

"When they were little, they slept with me, one on each side. I didn't dare to turn over to the side. I could only lie straight in bed and wait until they fell asleep before I dared to turn over."

"Ah, I can't even turn over in my sleep?" He Shengnan said in surprise, covering her mouth.

This is so uncomfortable. It must be painful to lie in bed without being able to turn over.

"This is still normal. There are also things you wouldn't expect. For example, one time, the two of them were playing in the living room, right next to this wardrobe." Ran Xiaomei turned her head and pointed to a place in the living room, and then said:

"Yuan Chao wasn't paying attention and hit his head on the wardrobe, crying in pain. Wei Guo was playing nearby and saw his brother like this, so he ran over and hit his head on the wardrobe, and then started crying too."

He Shengnan found it difficult to understand her mother-in-law's words for a moment. This matter was too unbelievable.

Seeing her standing there for a long time before she came to her senses, Wang Mengde pressed the acupuncture points for Wang Yuanchao and continued, "Another time, we went to my grandparents' house in the countryside. At night, my grandfather caught three crickets for them. Then, the two of them fought over the extra one. They rolled on the ground, pulled each other's hair, kicked, scratched, and spit at each other."

"And then, how was it resolved in the end?"

"Haha, in the end, our whole family went out in the middle of the night with lanterns to catch crickets. We didn't care if they were big or small, we had to catch the same ones."

Wang Mengde said with a wry smile.

This... He Shengnan was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.

Although her two younger brothers often fight over things at home, it is not to this extreme. The example that her mother-in-law and her husband just told her is scary to think about.

After resting for a while, Ran Xiaomei stayed in the bedroom to look after the children, He Shengnan went outside to cook alone, and Wang Mengde picked up a medical book and read it with relish in the living room.

By the pool in the middle courtyard, Jia Zhang finished washing the dishes and walked home. Seeing He Shengnan cooking alone, she couldn't help but laugh out loud:
"Oh, some kids just like to bully our boy Bang Geng. He just cried for a long time at home and couldn't stop. This must be retribution."

"Who are you talking about?"

He Shengnan, who was preparing to cook, put down the spatula immediately when she heard the hidden meaning in her words, stared at her with raised eyebrows and said.

"Hmph, I can say whatever I want to say about anyone, what's it to you?" Jia Zhang was not afraid of her and snorted coldly.

In the living room, Wang Mengde heard the noise outside. Fearing that his wife would suffer, he quickly put down the book and went outside. Jia Zhang was a master at playing rogue, and most people could not argue with her.

"Try to say it again. It seems that your stick was not hit lightly enough." Wang Mengde said with a cold face.

Many residents in the middle courtyard were cooking outside their doors, and those who were busy by the sink were all looking over here.

Seeing Wang Mengde coming out, Jia Zhang looked behind him guiltily, and was relieved to find that Ran Xiaomei did not come out.

But she didn't dare to say anything more. She was a typical bully who only bullied the weak and feared the strong. After several incidents, she only dared to get angry with Wang Mengde's new daughter-in-law He Shengnan and bullied her because she was new to the family.

At this time, Jia Dongxu led Banggeng out of the house. He heard clearly what his mother and Wang Mengde said in the house, so he said with a gloomy face:

"Wang Mengde, what does my mother's words have to do with you? She didn't mention anyone by name, so why are you meddling in her business?"

"Jia Dongxu, you can't be like this. Brother Mengde cried so miserably, but your mother actually laughed at him. We are all neighbors in the same courtyard. If things get awkward, how will others help you if your family has problems in the future?"

Aunt Li, who was washing dishes by the sink, couldn't bear to watch it anymore and couldn't help but speak up for justice.

"Bah, our family doesn't want his help, and I won't help their family either." Jia Dongxu blurted out.

"Okay, okay, you said it, and we are all witnesses." After hearing him say this and seeing that several neighbors around had also heard it, Wang Mengde stopped talking nonsense and made the final decision.

Within a month, someone in the Jia family started crying.

"That's what I said, whoever regrets is a grandson." Jia Dongxu said with his neck stiff.

After sending Ran Xiaomei and her two younger brothers to Yuer Hutong, He Shengnan was still in shock on the way back. She said worriedly, "Meng De, we probably won't have twins in the future."

Now she finally understood why her husband and mother-in-law were so cautious. Twins were indeed very scary.

"Definitely not." Wang Mengde said firmly.
