Chapter 17 First Visit



The secluded little mountain village suddenly became abuzz when a military vehicle drove into the village.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the two arrived home early.

The car was parked upright next to the broken wooden door of Ruan Xiaotang's house.

The narrow streets were crowded with villagers who came to watch the fun.

The Ruan family’s entrance was surrounded by three layers of people, making it impossible for anyone to get in or out.

Among them is Ruan Xiaotang’s cousin, Ruan Xiaomei.

A pair of jealous eyes hiding in an inconspicuous corner.

The malice and unwillingness in his eyes were like a sharp blade that pierced through the crowd and pierced Ruan Xiaotang's chest mercilessly.

Hit the vital point directly, a fatal move.

Ruan Xiaotang deliberately took Zhou Xingze's arm, pretending that they were very close.

With a faint smile on his face, he glanced at the crowd.

She did it on purpose for Ruan Xiaomei to see.

This situation.

It won’t make people angry to death, but it can definitely make them crazy.

Looking at the intimacy between the two of them, they walked into the Ruan family's gate together.

The villagers outside the door began to talk to each other.

Villagers who were close to the Ruan family said, "This handsome man is a perfect match for Xiaotang. From now on, the Ruan family will have hope for the future."

"Sister-in-law, what you said is really from the bottom of your heart. Ever since Guifang's husband left, Xiaotang has been supporting the family. At such a young age, she has done all kinds of dirty and tiring work. Now, she is finally getting her wish."

"You are such a scoundrel. You have the time to feel sorry for other people's daughters, but why don't you find a good marriage for your own daughter?"

This is a rare interaction with the Ruan family.

"My daughter is just over 18, she won't have trouble finding a husband, and she doesn't hate getting married. Finding a husband is a lifelong event for a daughter. I don't want to find a bastard family for my daughter who treats women like animals and lacks moral integrity."

"You are blaming others for your indirect accusation. You will not have a good death."

"Bah, whoever says it knows!"

……………………

"Who is this?"

"Mom, this is my blind date today, Zhou Xingze."

Liu Guifang looked carefully at the tall and burly man standing in front of her.

He is a head and a half taller than Xiaotang.

What did he eat when he was young? How come he is so tall?

This leather suit shows that he is a good worker.

If you are quick and skillful, you will definitely have a good life.

Her daughter Xiaotang is blessed.

"Aunt, hello, I'm Zhou Xingze, a PLA soldier. This is my first time visiting you. Sorry to bother you."

"Brother-in-law, you really are a soldier."

Ruan Xiaohai limped out of the house quickly.

He raised his hand and lifted the door curtain, and his excited words burst out of his mouth.

He stood behind his mother, showing his little white teeth and smiling.

Zhou Xingze looked at his brother-in-law whom he met for the first time with gratitude.

This brother-in-law is really sensible.

"What are you yelling about? This is your sister's boyfriend, not your brother-in-law yet. Don't be disrespectful."

Liu Guifang turned around and gave Ruan Xiaohai a lecture.

"Aunt, please don't blame the child. Come on, Xiaohai, come with me to get the things from the car."

"You have a car?"

Ruan Xiaohai's eyes lit up. He had only seen big cars in storybooks and had never seen a real one.

Being able to drive a car is his lifelong dream.

"Xiaotang, I'm sending you home out of kindness, how can you let others spend money on you? What if you..."

She still feels scared by the arrogance and unreasonableness of the Wang family when they broke off the engagement.

Don't be afraid of accidents, just be prepared for the worst.

"Mom, you can rest assured this time. Zhou Xingze is an honest and kind person. I believe in his character."

Liu Guifang's hands were held tightly by her daughter.

The uneasy heart was immediately comforted.

Her daughter was so sure this time, what else could she say as a mother?

Only full support.

"Xiaotang, come in with mom and help with cooking. Although our family is poor, we can't let other people's children go home hungry."

"good."

Ruan Xiaohai was holding a piece of fat and lean pork belly in his right hand, and regardless of the injury on his leg, he ran towards the house.

"Mom, sister, look, it's meat! My brother-in-law brought it. There are many delicious foods behind it. They are all my favorites. My brother-in-law is so nice."

In this era of food and clothing shortages, meat was definitely a luxury.

I don’t even dare to think about it during festivals other than the New Year.

Liu Guifang was looking at the ten-pound piece of pork belly on the chopping board and was in a dilemma. Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by someone who came in.

"Xiaotang, where should I put these?"

Just see.

In Zhou Xingze's left net bag were two boxes of neatly wrapped snacks in oil paper, with a bottle of sesame oil on top. In his right hand, he held two large cloth bags full of grain.

There were two knotted net bags hanging on the left shoulder, one in front and one behind the chest and back, one containing apples and the other peanuts.

Liu Guifang could hardly believe her eyes, and it took her a long time to come to her senses.

My God, how much money does he have to spend on these goodies.

I don’t have anything worth giving away at home, so how am I going to return this gift?

Are we going to let them go back empty-handed?

I can't let my daughter down like this. I still have 10 eggs at home, and I'll borrow a few more later. Even if I can get 20, it won't count. It's too embarrassing.

"Xiao Hai, go and help."

"I won't go. My brother-in-law is the one who makes the fire. I won't go and sit on that light bulb."

Ruan Xiaohai sat on the edge of the kang, holding the peach cake in one hand and picking up the crumbs with the other, eating them slowly, one bite at a time.

"Besides, why are you eating before you leave? That's really rude."

"Mom, my brother-in-law said that this delicious food was bought for me, so I could eat as much as I wanted. Next time, buy it for me again."

Liu Guifang was so disappointed with him that she tapped his forehead heavily with a finger.

She scolded him, "I was just being polite. Why did you take it so seriously? You are such a hopeless case. You are embarrassing your sister."

Ruan Xiaohai stopped eating and said, "I recognize this man as my brother-in-law. No one else is worthy of being my brother-in-law!"

"What are you yelling about? If he hears you, your sister has been rejected in the past. How will he look upon your sister and our family? This marriage might even fall through."

"It's not my sister's fault that the engagement was broken off. My brother-in-law is obviously a smart man who can see through everything. He won't abandon my sister just because of a little rumor. I can see that in his eyes, there is only my sister."

Liu Guifang felt much relieved by Ruan Xiaohai's words.

But it is true that the engagement was broken off.

well!

It's worrying to have a daughter but no husband.

It’s frustrating not to have a good in-law family.

Now, there is someone who is excellent in all aspects, and she is very worried.

After all, the Wang family is not a good family to deal with, and we are just afraid that they will do something bad behind our backs.

If this marriage is really ruined.

Then her Xiaotang is destined to be an old maid all her life.

With her strong character, she can swallow this grievance.

She looked so scary holding a kitchen knife that day, and even now when I think about it, I can still break out in a cold sweat.
