Chapter 135 The adopted son and daughter
To use the words of Rutang's hometown, Zhao Si is a stinky fish, the kind that stirs up the whole pot of fishy smell.
Although Zhao San has many minor flaws and shortcomings that are typical of ordinary people, he is essentially a normal person.
Zhao Si was different. He had never been an ordinary person since he was a child. He was cunning and treacherous. He stole things when he was young, and committed crimes when he grew up. His behavior became more and more serious, causing a lot of trouble for the family.
He would go to Zhao San's house to borrow money whenever he had nothing to do. Zhao San was his cousin, so he smashed things and made trouble in Zhao San's house, and even threatened to sell Zhao San's daughter to the mountains.
Zhao San had long wanted to get rid of such a vicious relative, but the two had the same grandfather, and the old man favored the youngest grandson. Whenever Zhao Si caused trouble outside, the old man would try to commit suicide and let the other families clean up his mess.
Over the years, the Zhao family has suffered a lot of harm. Family affection has long been gone, and all that remains is just resentment.
Zhao Si ran to Yu Yaoyang's house and attempted to do something bad to Rutang. Yu Yaoyang sent him to the police station. The next day, he suffered a cerebral infarction and died.
Rutang was quite shocked when she heard the news. She had always thought that death from cerebral infarction was a disease that only happened to the elderly. She never thought that Zhao Si, who was so young, would also die from it.
No wonder Chen Guilan showed up at her wedding banquet and was not taken away by the police for questioning.
It turns out that Zhao Si is dead!
When she went to the police station to inquire about the information, she was also given some scientific knowledge.
If young people suffer from high blood pressure and have bad habits such as smoking and drinking, they are also likely to increase the risk of death from cerebral infarction. Zhao Si had both smoking and drinking. In addition, he was nervous about being caught for committing a crime, and he had an attack of high blood pressure. Combined with various buffs, he was in trouble.
This result made Rutang feel very sad. Zhao Si had done so many evil things, but he died of a normal disease. She had nothing to say.
What she sighed about was Chen Guilan's bad luck.
I really don’t know whether to say that Chen Guilan is lucky or unlucky.
People say she is lucky. She clearly had the advantage of being reborn, but she messed up a good hand. Until now, she is still staying at the train station to earn a little money. She can't even afford a pair of decent shoes. She was reborn lonely.
But if you say that she has bad luck, she really has some good luck. If Zhao Si hadn't had a cerebral infarction, Chen Guilan would have been arrested.
The crackdown is severe now. For her behavior of instigating others to break into homes and commit crimes, she will be stuck in prison for several years.
After Zhao Si's death, Chen Guilan cleared herself of all responsibility. Apart from her and Zhao Si, no one else knew about this matter. Even if Rutang suspected her, he could not produce any evidence.
In this way, she escaped legal punishment.
Yu Yaoyang felt furious and wanted to take people to smash Chen Guilan's stall, but was stopped by Rutang.
There's no need to dirty your hands for such a piece of stinky meat.
Moreover, Rutang felt that Chen Guilan’s life in the city was not very good, so letting her stay in the city would be a disguised punishment for her.
A reborn person, who has not made use of any of her advantages, lives a life worse than that of an ordinary person. Looking at it from another perspective, perhaps this is the biggest punishment God has given her.
If she were sent back to the countryside, the second uncle would definitely arrange a blind date for her. A woman with such evil intentions would bring disaster to anyone she married. It would be better to let her stay in the city and rot and stink.
This is what Rutang explained to Yu Yaoyang. No one knows whether he listened to it or not. Anyway, one day Yu Yaoyang disappeared for two hours. When he came back, he was humming a little tune and was in a good mood.
However, Chen Rutang’s snack stall has not been open for several days, and no one knows why.
Time flies, a week has passed, and the villagers' meeting of Dali Village was finally held amid the villagers' eager anticipation.
All the villagers had to go back. Ru Tang and Yu Yaoyang also stopped their business for a day and went back to the village for a meeting.
This meeting was supposed to be held four days ago, but due to bad weather and rain, it was delayed.
Finally, the sky cleared up and the villagers gathered in the largest threshing ground in the village, bringing their own small stools and working in order.
Yu Yaoyang, relying on his remaining prestige in the village, drove away the few people in the front row and swaggered to let his family sit in the front row. His mother-in-law was also arranged to sit in the front row.
The Chen family has a low presence in the village, with a bad reputation and poor connections, so they were squeezed to the back row.
Chen Fu, who had disappeared for several days, finally showed up. It looked like he hadn't changed his clothes for many days and they were very rusty. Rutang took a look from a distance. Although she couldn't smell it, she could guess that it must have a strong smell by looking at the reaction of the person sitting next to him pinching his nose.
Not only was he dressed in shabby clothes, but his face was also bruised and swollen. I wonder what he went through when he disappeared.
Rutang looked around and didn't see Chen Guilan, so she lowered her voice and asked her mother-in-law who was sitting next to her.
"Mom, Chen Guilan didn't come?"
"She's here. I saw her come back yesterday. Look, the one wearing a bamboo hat is her!" Xiao Li pointed and Rutang looked over.
In the corner of the back row, a man dressed in black and wearing a hat was hiding in the darkness.
The corners of Rutang's mouth twitched.
"What is she doing?"
If her mother-in-law hadn't told her, she really wouldn't have been able to tell that it was Chen Guilan.
He wore a huge hat with a circle of gauze around it, which wrapped his face. When he walked on the street, he looked like a weirdo because your face could not be seen.
"She had this hairstyle yesterday. They said her face was sunburned and the doctor told her not to see the sun." Xiao Li answered her daughter-in-law and looked at her with a smile.
Rutang adhered to the principle of keeping a low profile and did not dress up deliberately. She just wore the clothes she sold herself, a white dress with a little floral pattern on it. She tied up her long braids and wore a head flower with the same pattern as the dress.
Yu Yaoyang sat next to her, wearing a white shirt and black shorts. His clothes looked similar to those worn by other people in the village, but the material was much better. It was obvious that he was living a good life. The most eye-catching thing was that Yu Yaoyang had a bulging waist bag around his waist.
The young couple sat together, looking a perfect match. Yu Yaoyang looked less fierce after marriage, with less hostility on his face, and looked even more handsome.
Xiao Li felt that among all the young girls and wives in the village sitting together, her daughter-in-law was the best looking, and even her unruly son looked a little better.
What made Xiao Li even more satisfied was that Rutang was very filial.
He came back with a lot of luggage, including many sets of clothes for her, and repeatedly asked her to move into the city to live with him.
Xiao Li was worried that her daughter-in-law was just being polite, but Rutang had mentioned it several times before, and this time she even said that she wanted to rent out the land and not let Xiao Li farm anymore. It seemed like she really wanted to let her mother-in-law go there to enjoy the life.
"Look at our mother, she is smiling like a flower at you, but in fact you are her biological daughter and I am an adopted son?" Yu Yaoyang joked.
"If I were so lucky as to have such a wonderful daughter, I would die of laughter in my dreams." Xiao Li turned her head and praised Rutang to Hao Mei beside her. Hao Mei quickly praised Yu Yaoyang in return. They were both very satisfied.
"Tsk, this old lady is so ungrateful. This little girl just threatened me, saying that if you don't go with us, she will tie you up and take you away in the car. She is so violent, and you still care about her, but you are disgusted with me." Yu Yaoyang muttered in a low voice.
He finally realized that he was the only one who had no status in this family.
Chen Guilan sat in the back row, gritting her teeth as she watched the happy scene of Rutang's family. She was so angry that her face hidden under her bamboo hat was distorted.
