Upon hearing this, Gu Xiufang raised her hand and pinched her arm, saying disapprovingly, "How can you talk like that?"
Xiao Qiang turned 17 during the Chinese New Year. She is free at home and at school. She has freedom of thought, freedom of behavior, and even freedom to spend money.
She hates being controlled by others the most.
"I can say whatever I want. It's not my own idea. I don't like Jiang Zao. I especially hate her. She's not worthy of my second brother!"
"You forced me to come pick her up, so don't expect me to be nice to her."
She looked at Jiang Zao while speaking. This was the first time she met Jiang Zao.
No wonder my second brother likes her, she's such a vixen.
The new bride is about to enter the house, and the sister-in-law is blocking the door with a sour face. What's the matter? Gu Xiufang arranged everything very well, but who could have thought that Xiao Qiang would fall ill on her wedding day?
She lowered her voice and said in a bad mood: "If you don't want to stay here, leave quickly and stop making such a bad face!"
Xiao Qiangba had no choice but to stay here and left with a turn of head.
Gu Xiufang drove the ancestor away, suppressed her anger and went to pick up the person.
"Slow down, slow down, don't crowd my daughter-in-law!"
Xiao Shuisheng protected Jiang Zao: "Sprinkle some sugar, everyone spread out!"
When Jiang Zao heard the noise of looting fade away, he was carried into a room at the side of the Xiao family's house.
The three rooms of the Xiao family are lined up together, brick and tile houses, with bricks around the doors and windows, beams on the pillars, and purlins on the beams. It looks like they live in the same yard, but in fact, Xiao Wensheng and Xiao Shuisheng's rooms are independent and different from each other.
Xiao Shuisheng's house is spacious and bright.
The floor is cement, the walls are painted white, a new plastic sheet is hung on the ceiling, and research awards are posted on the walls.
A large double bed is covered with a red four-piece set, the red towel pillowcases have red double happiness characters on them, and the quilt is the popular satin red double happiness quilt with auspicious dragon and phoenix patterns.
There were an octagonal table, a lilac cabinet, and a flat cabinet on the floor. On the cabinets were brand new enamel tea trays, teapots, cups, and a newly opened movie box. There was even a black and white TV on the shorter cabinet.
Near the door is a washstand, soap, washbasin and towels, all of which are new.
The aunties and young wives who came to join in the fun came into the house and saw the fun things in the house. They couldn't help but envy them.
"Professor Xiao spent a lot of money on marrying a wife. He even moved the TV into the house."
"Yes, but not just inside the house. There's also a new Fei Ge bicycle against the wall outside with a big red silk hanging on it. I asked about it and it turned out that Professor Xiao bought it for his wife. He said that his wife works too hard at the food factory and a bicycle would make it more convenient for her to get to and from get off work."
"I see. The bicycle seat is covered with a small cotton pad, and the handlebars are also covered with knitted covers. Tsk tsk, they say men are not careful. Look at how careful Professor Xiao is. Even we old ladies can't compare to him."
The house was crowded with people coming to see the bride.
Xiao Shuisheng lifted the red gauze on Jiang Zao's head, and the crowd fell silent.
So beautiful!
"You and Professor Xiao are a perfect match."
"That's exactly what happened!"
"The bride has small hands and feet, I'm afraid she won't be able to work well." An old lady complained.
Gu Xiufang immediately retorted: "Nonsense! My daughter-in-law works in a food factory. She's already a foreman before she even got a permanent job. She's making a lot of money!"
Noticing that Jiang Zao was obviously a little embarrassed, Gu Xiufang said to everyone to go out distressedly: "We have picked up the person, let's have dinner. Our stew is all pork belly, come out and eat!"
"There are cigarettes, alcohol, and candy on the table, first come, first served!"
Who doesn't come to a banquet to eat something delicious?
I haven't seen any oily food for the whole year. I heard that there were cigarettes, alcohol and candy on every table, and men, women, young and old all went out in a swarm.
Gu Xiufang also sent away a few relatives and friends: "Shuisheng, please sit here with Zao Yatou first. I will call you when it's time to toast."
Xiao Shuisheng nodded: "Okay."
Gu Xiufang went out and helped close the door.
After everyone left, Jiang Zao felt that his breathing was gradually becoming smoother.
She was so nervous that she didn't know where to look and looked around the new house.
The edge of the bed sank a little, and Xiao Shuisheng sat down, followed her gaze, and said in a deep voice: "If you still feel like there's something missing, tell me what it is."
There were more things than Jiang Zao had imagined. She shook her head slowly: "Nothing is missing."
Xiao Shuisheng raised his eyebrows: "Are you sure?"
He said this, hinting that there was something she hadn't noticed, but the house had everything. She was confused for a moment: "What's missing?"
Xiao Shuisheng raised his lips, smiled, and took out a white passbook from his pocket with the words "Current Savings Passbook" printed in large letters on it.
He held Jiang Zao's wrist and gently placed the passbook in her palm: "And my wife's passbook."
Jiang Zao had never asked him how much money he had saved, but he was quite curious.
Opening the passbook, there were several deposit amounts on it, followed by a red stamp of the local bank.
"More than 2,000?"
"You...you are so rich!"
Jiang Zao was still quite surprised.
Xiao Shuisheng laughed: "So surprised?"
Jiang Zao lowered her curled eyelashes, looking cute and pretty like a doll: "Yeah, I see you spend money lavishly. You spent three hundred on a coat, but it's actually unnecessary."
How many new clothes can you buy with three hundred yuan?
I didn't expect he still had more than two thousand on him.
She glanced sideways and met the man's dark eyes: "It seems that you are quite planned in spending money and know how to save money."
Xiao Shuisheng leaned forward and lowered his voice: "I don't know. From now on, I will give my monthly salary to Zao'er. Zao'er will help me save money, and you will take care of me, okay?"
Jiang Zao found it funny: "Are you afraid that I won't care about you?"
Her smile is like a blooming crabapple flower, delicate and beautiful.
Xiao Shuisheng's eyes darkened a little: "I'm scared, scared to death."
Jiang Zao: “…”
"Shuisheng, come out and have a toast!" Gu Xiufang knocked on the window and called Xiao Shuisheng out.
Jiang Zao felt shy when she saw him and pushed him: "Go quickly, everyone is waiting for you."
Xiao Shuisheng touched his red tie and frowned, "It seems a little crooked. Zao'er, help me fix it."
Jiang Zao is not a three-year-old child, there is nothing he doesn't know.
He did it on purpose!
She raised her watery eyes and reached out to help him tighten his tie. She was very careful and only dared to touch his tie with her fingertips. She didn't dare to touch other places, not even his shirt.
Jiang Zao saw his delicate and beautiful Adam's apple roll, and withdrew his hand, his fingertips numb.
"It's done, go ahead!"
Xiao Shuisheng couldn't bear to tease her: "Yeah."
The Xiao family is large, so after eating a batch in the morning, they turned the table over to entertain another batch, and the same was true for the afternoon meal.
Xiao Shuisheng was outside welcoming and seeing off guests, and only came into the house in the evening, reeking of alcohol.
Jiang Zao ate a bowl of noodles and sat bored on the bed waiting for Xiao Shuisheng to come back.
The darker it got, the more anxious she became.
Xiao Shuisheng opened the door and locked it, then walked to the window and pulled the red curtains.
The man slowly walked towards the bed. Jiang Zao nervously grabbed the sheets beneath her. Her mind buzzed with anxiety and she turned to run. Xiao Shuisheng quickly stretched out his slender hands and clasped them around Jiang Zao's waist. He threw himself on her and pressed her down...
