"Xiu Yu, you don't know how I've been through these days. That bitch suddenly went crazy and broke my legs, forcing me to lie on the kang every day, suffering a fate worse than death. I only managed to get through this by thinking of you." Song Zilong caressed He Xiu Yu's blushing cheeks lovingly and began to complain.
"I know you must be worried sick after not seeing me for such a long time. I will come to see you as soon as my leg feels a little better."
He Xiuyu's eyes were red with distress, "How could your Second Aunt do this? Why can't you just talk it out nicely? Why did you break your leg? It's really too much.
Brother Long, why didn't you report it to the police? "
"After all, she is my second uncle's wife. How can we be so cruel to her? We just hope that one day she will change for the better." Song Zilong sighed helplessly.
"It's just that, Xiuyu, I'm sorry for you. My family has spent a lot of money on my medical treatment during this period, and it's still short of the betrothal money that Uncle He asked for—"
"Brother Long, I will persuade my father. As long as you treat me well, the betrothal money doesn't matter..."
"Bah~ Shameless scumbag!"
Du Xiaoying, who was standing in the corner, felt heartbroken when she saw the girl being cheated by Song Zilong. She stuffed all the money and bills on her body into the hands of the ungrateful Song Zilong and gritted her teeth.
"You're so shameless to eat a free meal."
She deliberately threw a stone from the corner of the wall, scaring the two people who were hugging each other so much that they hurriedly separated and looked around nervously.
"Xiuyu, Xiuyu? The person this child is using the toilet with is gone."
Only when He Xiuyu heard her mother's voice did she reluctantly part with Song Zilong and walked into the house, looking back three times.
Du Xiaoying looked at Song Zilong's smug face, narrowed her eyes, and rode her bicycle out of the alley with a breath caught in her chest.
It was still early and the supply and marketing cooperative had not yet opened. Du Xiaoying waited at the door for a while before the sales clerks from the supply and marketing cooperative came over slowly one after another.
After waiting for another half an hour, the door of the supply and marketing cooperative was finally opened, and the people waiting at the door rushed in.
Seeing that today's special dishes were tofu and bean sprouts, Du Xiaoying hurried over to line up.
"Xiu Yu, you're always forgetful. When will you change this habit? You said you didn't bring a water bottle, and your throat must be sore after a morning of use."
Looking in the direction of the voice, I saw a middle-aged woman with meticulously combed hair, gently touching the girl's forehead with her eyebrows.
Seeing He Xiu Yu acting coquettishly and intimately with the woman, Du Xiaoying recognized that this was Zhang Aihong, the mother of He Xiu Yu, her eldest niece-in-law in her previous life. She worked as an accountant in the county textile factory and was a smart and capable woman.
Then she sighed deliberately to attract the attention of people around her.
"What's wrong with this comrade? Why is he sighing?"
"Alas, pitiful are the hearts of parents all over the world. From the moment a child is conceived, there is no time to rest. Their entire lives are filled with worry for their children."
The saleswoman was a middle-aged woman in her thirties. She felt exactly the same when she heard this and said, "That's right. After the baby was born, they said it would be fine after a full month. After a full month, they said it would be fine after the baby was older. And when the baby was older, they started worrying about Zhang Luowa's marriage..."
"There's never a moment in my life when I can feel at ease." Du Xiaoying took the salesperson's hand in a familiar manner and spoke from the heart as if she had finally found someone she could confide in.
"There's a cruel family in our village. In order to get their eldest son married, they even wanted to sell the second daughter. They almost forced the second family to death. If a girl marries into such a mean-spirited family, she'll ruin the rest of her life..."
When several sales clerks who were married and had children heard this, they all spoke up to protest.
"You can't marry into a family like this, or you'll be throwing your daughter into a fire pit. They can be so cruel to their own family, not to mention a daughter-in-law who is from another family. She will definitely be eaten up."
Du Xiaoying nodded, "That's right. That's why when you marry your daughter off, you have to find out more about the man's family."
"If the top beam is crooked, the bottom beam will be crooked. Some people are bad at heart..."
He Xiuyu looked at her mother who was listening intently and reminded her quietly, "Mom, it's almost time, why don't you go to work?"
"Let's go now."
Du Xiaoying, who had been paying attention to the movements here with her peripheral vision, saw that the other party had listened, then she suppressed her smile and left the supply and marketing cooperative.
In his previous life, the He family used all their strength to support their son-in-law. After Song Zilong became successful in his career, he did not take his original wife He Xiuyu seriously. He kept a bunch of women outside and even angered his father-in-law to death. He was an ungrateful scum!
Just as she was thinking, Du Xiaoying noticed a person limping in front of her, pedaling his bicycle very fast.
"Hey, isn't this our eldest nephew who hooked up with a city girl and lived off her for free? Even with a broken leg, he's still so dishonest."
Song Zilong turned around and saw a bicycle riding past him. Anger suddenly surged in his mind and he raised his crutch to hit it.
"Hey~ I didn't hit you~ You're so mad!"
Du Xiaoying, who had been prepared for this, quickly left Song Zilong more than ten meters away and yelled at the top of her lungs, "Song the Cripple, just limp slowly~"
Song Zilong looked at the bicycle that disappeared in a short while, his eyes filled with vicious resentment, his chest heaving with anger.
.....
"What's wrong with Xiao Liu? He's sighing." Song Guoliang frowned. He couldn't help feeling annoyed after hearing the sighing all morning.
"I'm just confused. I didn't do anything, but my wife got mad at me. She ignored me all night." Xiao Liu wiped his face and said, "Brother Song, can you give me some advice on how to make my wife happy?"
Song Guoliang frowned and coughed unnaturally.
"Xiao Liu, considering Brother Song's quiet personality, you've asked the wrong person. You should ask Brother Wang about this matter of coaxing your wife."
Xiao Liu scratched his head and said, "Brother Wang, please help me analyze why I made my wife unhappy and how can I make her happy."
Wang Weidong chuckled, "That's easy."
Song Guoliang listened to the laughter of his colleagues, his ears twitched, and even his upper body, which was as straight as a pine tree when sitting, leaned back silently.
Wang Weidong cleared his throat. "Don't try to reason with women during arguments. Women are unreasonable when they're angry... Just praise your wife's beauty more and buy her some hairbands, face cream, nice clothes, etc."
Song Guoliang nodded thoughtfully.
"Huh? Where's Brother Song?"
"He was here just now—huh? When did you leave?"
Supply and Marketing Cooperative
"Comrade, would you like to pick out a hair tie?" The salesperson recognized the work clothes on the man as belonging to the security department. He looked at the tall and straight man and asked with a handsome smile.
Song Guoliang nodded, "Which one is better?"
"A red hairband like this is fine for children. It's simple, inexpensive, and good..."

"Grandpa and grandma, my second uncle is a formal employee. If he behaves morally, he might even lose his job!" Song Zilong's eyes showed no trace of cruelty when he thought of being humiliated by that woman when he came back.
Old Mrs. Song hesitated. "Longlong, if we really ruin your second uncle's job, our family won't benefit at all."
