Zhuang Ling barely slept all night and got up very early in the morning.
She opened the door, ready to go out for some fresh air.
As a result, I almost bumped into someone as soon as I stepped outside!
"Who?" she exclaimed in surprise!
The person on the ground twitched, then slowly got up.
My legs probably went numb from squatting for too long.
He grinned and stretched his body while giving Zhuang Ling a humble smile.
He said, "Auntie, I'm Chengcai's older brother. Where's my younger brother? I've come to see him about something."
Zhuang Ling had never met the Sun family before, so she was quite surprised when Sun Tieniu introduced himself.
She discreetly observed the person in front of her.
Then she discovered that this person looked seven or eight parts like her cheap son-in-law.
This made her think—
If it weren't for Shiyue's father's help, and if her own daughter hadn't been so foolish as to rush headlong into marrying him...
Will Sun Chengcai also be in such a cowardly and filthy state a few years later?
Thinking of this, she felt even more disgusted with Sun Chengcai.
However, Zhuang Ling did not show it.
She smiled kindly at Sun Tieniu and said, "You're looking for Cheng Cai? He was on duty at the seed station yesterday. Go find him there."
Sun Tieniu quickly agreed and then prepared to leave.
He also sized up Zhuang Ling.
The woman in front of me should be about the same age as my mother, but she's very particular about her appearance.
His clothes and appearance make him look about the same age as my wife.
She even looks a few points prettier than his own wife.
These are women from wealthy families!
However, this woman's character is terrible; she's incredibly stingy!
If someone runs into me this early, anyone would know I haven't eaten.
Even so, they wouldn't even give him a bite of steamed bun...
Tsk tsk tsk, the richer they are, the stingier they become.
Otherwise, how did those landlords and wealthy people in the past accumulate so much wealth?
Sun Tieniu was full of complaints, but dared not show them.
His brother said that they absolutely must not have any conflict with Yang Tingting's family.
His brother also said that if we just bear with it, everything will be fine, and if we can get through this period, everything will be alright.
Thinking of this, Sun Tieniu rubbed his stomach, turned around and left.
Zhuang Ling had no idea that Sun Tieniu had thought of so much in such a short time.
She hadn't even considered whether Sun Tieniu had eaten or not.
What does this have to do with her?
She just suddenly thought of something else.
"Wait a minute!" she quickly called out to Sun Tieniu.
Sun Tieniu thought the man had finally remembered he hadn't eaten, so he turned around happily and asked eagerly, "Auntie, is there anything else?"
"What brings you to Cheng Cai so early in the morning?" Zhuang Ling asked.
Seeing that the man had no intention of giving him any food, Sun Tieniu's face fell.
With his eyelids drooping, he said weakly, "It's nothing, nothing at all, I just... I just missed my brother, so I came to visit."
Zhuang Ling felt a surge of irritation.
It would be a miracle if she believed that!
I miss my brother...
Don't think she didn't know that the day after Sun Chengcai returned, he secretly ran back to the village to see his troublesome mother.
They also secretly took a lot of things they brought back from the provincial capital.
However, thinking that with his reassurance, the family wouldn't cause any more trouble for a while, Zhuang Ling turned a blind eye and also pulled her daughter back to stop her from making a scene.
Now that they say they came to the commune because they wanted to see Sun Chengcai, how could Zhuang Ling believe it?
You miss him, you miss his things and money, don't you?
Thinking about this, Zhuang Ling felt even more disgusted with this family.
However, she also realized that Sun Tieniu wouldn't say anything unless she offered something.
So she said, "Wait a moment."
Then he went inside and took out two cornbread buns that he had gotten from the canteen the night before and gave them to Sun Tieniu.
He laughed and said, "Look at me, I'm getting old, and my mind sometimes slows down. I even forgot you haven't had breakfast yet!"
"Eat quickly, then go see Cheng Cai. He's at the station; you'll find him when you get there."
After saying that, she asked the same question again: "You're looking for him so early in the morning, it's not just because you miss him, is it?"
If there were cornbread to eat, Sun Tieniu would be willing to talk about anything.
He immediately said, "My mother insisted that I come. She told me to quickly tell Cheng Cai to let him, to let him..."
At this point, Sun Tieniu suddenly realized a problem—
That is, was it appropriate to say these words to Zhuang Ling?
Isn't this making my brother lose face in front of my mother-in-law?
Zhuang Ling pressed further, "Let him what?"
"Let him hide for a bit," Sun Tieniu said, having no other option.
Once the words were spoken, the rest flowed much more smoothly.
"Auntie, you don't know, Shiyue came back from the provincial capital last night. And she didn't come back alone, she brought back a big cart with her!"
"A big truck?" Zhuang Ling frowned.
"Yes, a big truck, a really big truck, I've never seen one like it before."
Sun Tieniu gestured with his hands: "It even has military license plates, it's a military vehicle! And, not only did she bring back a vehicle, she also brought back a soldier with her, who said he was her brother."
At this point, Sun Tieniu's lips moved as he muttered under his breath, "What brother? We've known each other for decades, and I never knew Shiyue had a brother. That's her powerful backer who moved from the provincial capital! I never knew she had such a strong backer before."
