This is what I said...

People who are open-minded will only take it for granted, but those who are secretive will inevitably feel that they are being criticized.

Song Hongguo is indeed beating Zhao Hongling. She has helped the Zhao family several times, mostly on her own initiative. The Zhao family also returns favors. What matters in every interaction is sincerity. The Zhao family cares about her. She has never cared about whether she takes advantage or suffers a loss. But when interacting with others, she pays attention to boundaries and propriety. If she loses her propriety, people will dislike her.

Like now.

Zhao Hongling was obviously trying to take advantage. If she accepted it easily this time, there would be more trouble like this in the future.

Test her bottom line first, and then figure it out slowly.

Zhao Hongling had some cleverness, but he shouldn't use it on her.

At this moment, Zhao Hongling's expression turned stiff as he listened to what she said with a gun and a stick. He couldn't even squeeze out a smile and said dryly, "My cousin is right, but you have connections..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhao Zhenhua, "Sister, dad has something to do with you."

Zhao Hongling didn't give up yet and sat still. "I'll tell you what you want later. My cousin and I haven't finished talking yet. It's a rare opportunity to meet..."

Zhao Zhenhua's face darkened and he said in a strong tone, "You'd better go in quickly, you know my father's temper."

Hearing this, Zhao Hongling pursed her lips, stood up helplessly, forced a smile to Song Hongguo and said, "Cousin, I'll talk to you another day."

Song Hongguo smiled lightly and said "Yeah".

When she entered the main room, Song Hongguo also stood up to say goodbye. It was already dark now, and Zhao Zhenhua took a flashlight and sent the three of them off.

It was quiet on the road, and Song Hongguo casually brought up a topic, "I've put a lot of effort into tonight's banquet. Every dish is delicious. Who holds the spoon?"

"It's my mother, you can eat as you like." Zhao Zhenhua agreed, but his emotions were not very high. After holding it in for a moment, he finally made the matter clear, "Cousin, is my eldest sister giving you a hard time?"

Song Hongguo knew very well the principle of not being close to each other, and said casually, "Actually, I didn't say anything, just chatting. My cousin is very warm to others..."

Zhao Zhenhua smiled bitterly and said, "She is too enthusiastic and thinks everyone is a fool? Alas, she is not a bad person, she is just a little smarter..."

Song Hongguo didn't answer.

Zhao Zhenhua continued, "Before, when she was in confinement, I gave her five kilograms of millet, the same ones you bought for the family last time. At that time, she kept asking questions, but I blocked her back. Yes, I also reminded her through my father's will, telling her not to make any messy ideas. My eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law wanted to find you, but my mother pushed her back. You can't push too far in life, and you don't have a clear idea in your heart. How can you follow me? People coming and going?"

It's not that you can't open your mouth to ask for help, but you have to be able to come up with a thank you gift of similar size, otherwise you're pretending to be confused and taking advantage.

Song Hongguo sighed, "My cousin is a sensible person."

Zhao Zhenhua sighed helplessly, "What's the use of knowing it alone? Sister, won't you do such a disgusting thing again? Make me lose face in front of you..."

"No, she is her, you are you, and I won't express my anger." Song Hongguo said half seriously, half jokingly, "In the future, we should interact as we should." Zhao Zhenhua smiled bitterly, "The more you Being so open makes my cousin even more shameless. I'm sorry. Cousin, I apologize to you on behalf of my eldest sister. Don't worry, my father will definitely deal with her later and won't ask her to pester you again..."

"It's not that serious. Today is a good day. Don't make uncle angry. Go back and persuade him quickly..." Seeing that he was home, Song Hongguo urged him to leave.

Zhao Zhenhua is also afraid of trouble in the family. His eldest sister has a bad temper. After getting married, every time she goes back to her parents' house, she packs a lot of bags. She feels that she is trying to attract her parents, which makes her a bit arrogant. She always treats herself as a spoiled guest. If her father scolds her, she may not If you are convinced, you will really make a fuss, but it will be a joke to the neighbors.

After he left in a hurry, Ling Zhi asked, "Mom, did that cousin bully you?"

Song Hongguo smiled and said, "How can you? You wanted to beg me to buy millet, but I didn't respond."

"Millet is a fine grain. It requires both food stamps and rations. The grain station is only available at the beginning of the month, and you have to line up in the middle of the night to get it. My cousin doesn't know that it is so difficult to buy, but she still makes things difficult for you. It's too selfish. If It's understandable that she opens her mouth to beg for something important, such as life-saving medicine, but it's not like she has to eat the millet. In the final analysis, she doesn't care about your feelings and just wants to borrow money."

Despite Ling Zhi's young age, he has a thorough understanding of these people's feelings. There is a bit of dissatisfaction in his tone, and he wants to defend her.

Song Hongguo reminded, "Don't show this kind of emotion in front of others in the future, so as not to cause more trouble and make you uncomfortable with my uncle and his family in the future."

Ling Zhi understood and nodded.

Song Hongguo rubbed his head, "Such a trivial matter is not worth mentioning. Don't let some meaningless people and things affect your mood. It's unnecessary and not worth mentioning."

Ling Zhi breathed out and said "Yeah".

Song Hongguo was not deceiving herself, she just didn't trust him at all, but the Zhao family couldn't take it seriously. After all the guests left, Zhao Baoqing scolded his daughter. After all, she was a married woman, and she had been filial to him all these years. , so his tone was quite gentle, and he did not beat or scold him frequently like he did to his son.

Even if it was like this, Zhao Hongling couldn't bear it. She lay on the kang table and cried as if she had been greatly wronged. If her own mother hadn't stopped her, she would have discredited her and taken her child away.

Zhao Baoqing sat on the kang, smoking with a sullen expression.

In order to save face for their daughter, only Zhao Baoqing and his wife were in the room. When the atmosphere was tense, Zhao Zhenhua opened the door and walked in. He asked nonchalantly, "Sister, do you think dad has wronged you?"

Zhao Hongling raised her head and said with red eyes, "What did I do wrong? Don't I just want my cousin to buy some millet? We are all relatives, so shouldn't we help?"

Zhao Zhenhua laughed angrily, "Where should I go? Do you think you are going to the commune to help carry some needles, thread, and brains? You don't know how hard it is to buy millet?"

"It's difficult for others to buy, but for her, it's just a matter of raising her hand." Zhao Hongling was not without a target, she had obviously found out clearly, "She has a good reputation in the hospital, and the leaders value her very much, and she has a good reputation." Someone like Huo Minglou has a lot of connections. Otherwise, how could she help you and Zhensheng find opportunities to work in the factory? She has done all the difficult things, but she just helped me. Isn’t it easy to buy some millet?”

Zhao Zhenhua could tell that he was not only trying to take advantage, but he was also jealous. He couldn't help but sneered, "You don't know what it means to push the envelope? You don't know if taking advantage is enough? You don't know what it means to be willing to do what you want? Do you think this is someone else's? Who is here to run errands for our family?"

Zhao Hongling said angrily, "Then she can only help you, but not me?"

Zhao Zhenhua said, "I get along with my cousin, and we have many contacts. I have never thought of taking advantage of her. What about you? Do you think you can coax her by saying a few nice words? My cousin is very bright. If you If you are really in trouble, for dad's sake, my cousin may not refuse if she can help, but you are obviously trying to take advantage, ha..."
