Zhao Xiufen and Shen Qingli, mother and daughter, went to open the door together, while the others stayed in the house and did not move.
After opening the door, it turned out to be my cousin Shen Yuyan whom I hadn't seen for many days.
Ever since Shen Yuyan broke off her engagement with Zhang Qiang, she has been gossiped about by the gossips of the village.
Fifth grandmother Wang Lai Di is a person who favors boys over girls. The reason why she supported her cousin in breaking off the engagement last time was entirely because Zhang Qiang's behavior slapped the face of their Shen family.
Now that Shen Yuyan's reputation has been damaged, Fifth Grandma is afraid that it will affect her grandson's marriage, so she hurriedly married her to a widower whose wife has died in the next village!
I heard that the widower had two children, the older one was five years old and the younger one was only three years old.
He remarried just to find someone to take care of his children.
Shen Qingli did not attend her cousin Shen Yuyan's wedding because she went to the county town.
But a few days ago, Shen Yuyan heard that their third branch had returned, so she went to the old house to see them, and Shen Qingli took the opportunity to give her a wedding gift.
The gift was not something valuable, just a nice hairpin that I bought for three yuan at the supply and marketing cooperative in the county.
I was originally planning to wear it myself, but after hearing that my cousin was getting married, I gave the hairpin to her.
"Aunt San! Xiaoli!" Shen Yuyan greeted Zhao Xiufen and Shen Qingli with a smile.
"Yuyan! Come in quickly." Zhao Xiufen was also very happy to see that it was Shen Yuyan.
This is the only child in the Shen family that she feels is good.
"Aunt San, no, it's too late. I won't go in. My boyfriend is still waiting over there!" Shen Yuyan shook her head and refused, pointing to the intersection.
"My nephew-in-law is here too? Then come in with us. It's so cold waiting outside!" Zhao Xiufen ignored Shen Yuyan's refusal and waved directly at the intersection, "My nephew-in-law, don't stand outside in the cold. Come in and sit down and chat for a while."
“Sister Yuyan, you look much better than before. It seems that you are living a good life after marriage.” Shen Qingli said with a smile while holding Shen Yuyan’s hand.
"At least it's more comfortable than staying at my parents' house!" Shen Yuyan said with a sweet smile.
On the other side, after hearing what Zhao Xiufen said, Shen Yuyan's husband had to move over here.
Shen Qingli and Zhao Xiufen couldn't help but frown when they saw it.
What's up with this nephew-in-law/brother-in-law?
Is this lady from a noble family afraid of meeting people?
After seeing the expressions of Shen Qingli and Zhao Xiufen, Shen Yuyan hurriedly explained for her husband: "Aunt San, Xiaoli, he didn't mean it. The reason he didn't dare to see you was because he was afraid of scaring you."
Scared?
Shen Qingli was puzzled. Could it be that this cousin-in-law looked unpleasant to the audience?
"Mu Si, since Third Aunt is calling you, come over!" Shen Yuyan called to her husband.
Mousse?
This was the first time Shen Qingli heard her cousin's husband's name.
What a great name for my cousin’s husband!
Sounds...delicious!
"Hey! Here she comes!" Mu Si, who was on the other side of the intersection, quickened his pace after hearing what his wife said.
But after a moment, cousin-in-law Mu Si came in front of the three of them.
Shen Qingli was stunned when she saw her cousin-in-law.
What a pity!
No wonder my cousin said she was afraid that her husband would scare them.
In fact, my cousin's husband looks quite good, with a handsome appearance and a strong masculine aura.
If it weren't for the scar on his face, my cousin wouldn't have gotten to marry him, right?
My cousin-in-law Mu Si has a very long and obvious scar on his face. The scar almost covers his entire face, extending from his left eyebrow to his right chin.
No wonder there are rumors that this cousin's husband is a man with a moody personality, a bad temper, and likes to beat his wife. It is said that his ex-wife was beaten to death by him.
His face is disfigured, it would be strange if he had a good personality.
But the issue of wife beating remains to be seen.
At least judging from my cousin's actions and expressions today, not only has she not been beaten, but she also gets along quite well with her cousin's husband.
Zhao Xiufen actually didn't care much about appearance. Like most women of that era, when she looked for a partner for her daughter, she focused on character rather than looks.
This niece-in-law gave her a pretty good first impression.
At least he is like a man in his own family, who listens to his wife.
Unlike most men in this village, he treats his wives as servants, ordering them around and beating them if they are not satisfied.
Shen Yuyan looked at the expressions of the two people and couldn't help feeling happy.
Just as she expected, Third Aunt and Xiaoli did not take the scar on their man's face seriously.
There was no expression of fear or disgust.
The smile on Shen Yuyan’s face was even more sincere at this time: “Aunt San, Xiaoli, this is my husband Mu Si.”
After introducing Mu Si to Shen Qingli and Zhao Xiufen, he introduced Shen Qingli to Mu Si.
"Mu Si, this is the Third Aunt I mentioned to you, and my cousin Xiaoli who gave me this hairpin."
"Hello, Third... Third Aunt, Hello, Cousin... Cousin!" Mu Siru was like a young man who met his mother-in-law for the first time. He greeted Zhao Xiufen and Shen Qingli at a loss.
Shen Qingli looked at the muscular man, over 1.8 meters tall, with a timid look on his face with amusement.
"Oh, okay, okay!" Zhao Xiufen responded with a satisfied smile, "Come on, don't stay outside, sit inside."
Shen Qingli also invited: "Yes, Sister Yuyan, it's just right to take my brother-in-law to see my father and my brother."
Shen Yuyan had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"Mu Si, since Third Aunt asked us to go in, let's go in. Anyway, Ningning and Junsheng are being watched by Xiaoxia and the others today!" Shen Yuyan said, pulling Mu Si's sleeve.
"Um!"
Mu Si nodded, and then naturally took the old hen from Shen Yuyan's hand.
