Chapter 34 Wang Jing is back (Seeking monthly votes)
Xu Yuanyuan really wanted to rush in and give him a piece of her mind, but she was afraid of angering Wang Hao and making him send her back to Xujia Village.
She was naturally unwilling, so she could only continue to stand there in a daze.
"You brat, what nonsense are you spouting? Get out of here right now and bring Xu Yuanyuan home with you," Old Wang said.
Wang Hao remained standing still, unwilling to move. Fearing that Old Wang would get angry and hit him, Wang Hao's mother immediately tried to persuade him earnestly, "My son, just listen to your parents. Would your parents ever harm you? Of course, we want you to have a good life."
"I feel like throwing up just looking at Xu Yuanyuan's face. How can you call this a good life?"
“Silly child, as long as you have money, you can find any kind of job you want in the future,” Wang Hao’s mother said.
Old Wang nodded as well.
Wang Hao stomped his foot in anger, but in the end he still went outside to find Xu Yuanyuan.
As soon as he stepped out the door, he stared at Xu Yuanyuan, and Wang Hao felt inexplicably guilty. Could she have heard everything from such a distance?
On second thought, he realized that if he heard it, he heard it; it wasn't a secret that he didn't want to marry her anyway.
"What are you still standing there for? Wait for my parents to come out and set off firecrackers to welcome you in?" Wang Hao said irritably.
Xu Yuanyuan shook her head. "No, I didn't mean that. I just didn't know when would be a good time to go inside."
Wang Hao scoffed, "When you were cursing people before, why didn't you consider whether you should have done it or not? Now you're all cautious. Did you grow a brain in such a short time?"
Xu Yuanyuan nervously twisted her fingers, asking anxiously, "Wang Hao, do you really not want to marry me?"
Wang Hao rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. "What's the point of saying all this now? Come inside with me."
Wang Hao entered the house with a cold face, and Xu Yuanyuan sighed and followed him.
Old Wang was still smoking welding fumes without saying a word. Wang Hao's mother seemed not to have seen Xu Yuanyuan. Wang Feng and Wang Zhaodi were tidying up their things in the yard.
The whole family ignored Xu Yuanyuan.
Xu Yuanyuan thought that marrying Wang Hao would be the happiest thing for her, but now it seems that she was too optimistic.
She reached out and took off her favorite big red flower from her head, holding it tightly in her hand, refusing to let go even as the metal shards pierced her palm.
That evening, Wang Hao was brought to his room drunk. Xu Yuanyuan stood by and waited until everyone had left before she went to the bedside.
"Wang Hao..."
"Get lost, stop bothering me."
"Today is our first day of marriage, and you treat me like this. Don't you know it hurts me?"
“I’m warning you, don’t come near me, or I’ll send you back to Xujia Village.”
Wang Hao fell asleep after saying only a few words, leaving Xu Yuanyuan staring at him blankly.
Her wound on her buttocks had been torn open, and her pants were covered in blood. She hadn't brought any medicine with her when she came from Xujia Village, and she was unfamiliar with the area. She couldn't find her way out to buy medicine.
But Wang Hao was sleeping soundly, so she didn't want to disturb him.
Xu Yuanyuan gritted her teeth and endured the pain, lying on her side on the side of the bed, not daring to approach Wang Hao.
...
Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Early in the morning, Wang Hao took Xu Yuanyuan back to Xujia Village.
Wang Hao brought two jin (approximately 1 kg) of steamed corn bread as a homecoming gift.
Xu Yuanyuan looked unwilling to go back. "I don't think this will work out. Xu Qingmo isn't stupid. You never touched me, so how could you have a child?"
“You’re so young and chubby, that big belly looks like you’re pregnant. As long as you insist that we have a child, Xu Qingmo is just a little kid who doesn’t know anything, she won’t give it away.” Wang Hao’s patience was almost worn out.
If it weren't for his parents keeping him in check, he could have taken Xu Yuanyuan back to her parents' home a week after the wedding, claiming she was pregnant and making Xu Qingmo pay for it.
Xu Yuanyuan said aggrievedly, "But I'm naturally fat, I gain weight even from drinking water, so you can't blame me."
"Alright, stop talking nonsense. Nobody cares whether you're really pregnant or not. Just get Xu Qingmo to come up with the money."
Wang Hao pulled Xu Yuanyuan toward Wang Xiuzhi's house.
Xu Yuanyuan reluctantly stepped inside.
Wang Xiuzhi has returned home, but she rarely goes out except at night to get something to eat. Her life is hard and tiring, and no one talks to her.
The door opened, and Wang Xiuzhi looked up to see Xu Yuanyuan and Wang Hao had returned.
Wang Xiuzhi thought of getting up to greet her, but then she thought, Xu Yuanyuan didn't even inform her of her wedding, so she might as well not have this daughter.
Wang Xiuzhi's tone was unfriendly, "Did you two come to the wrong door?"
Wang Hao was after the money, so his attitude towards Wang Xiuzhi was fairly good. "Mom, Yuanyuan and I came home to see you. This is a gift for you."
As he spoke, he placed two jin of steamed buns on the table.
Wang Hao looked around but didn't see Xu Qingmo. He asked in confusion, "Where's my niece? Isn't she home?"
"Xu Qingmo and Wang Dazhuang have gone up the mountain." Wang Xiuzhi was angry when she saw the two jin of steamed buns, but then she thought that Xu Qingmo had supported the marriage.
Who knows, if Xu Qingmo sees the two of them go home, she might generously cook up the wild boar or rabbit she hunted and invite them to eat together.
These days, Wang Xiuzhi is so engrossed in the delicious aromas wafting from the kitchen that she almost wants to swallow them whole.
The idea of kicking Wang Hao and Xu Yuanyuan out was also abandoned.
On the other side, Xu Qingmo brought back a pheasant, three rabbits, and two adult wild boars today.
After the previous report, Xu Qingmo and Butcher Li became more cautious. They skinned and deboned the wild boar halfway there, weighed it, and calculated the price.
The price was still 1.2 yuan per jin, 312 jin, totaling 374.4 yuan. Adding the 36 yuan for two pieces of pigskin, the total came to 410.4 yuan. Butcher Li rounded it up to 420 yuan for her.
Wang Dazhuang and the others went to the side to keep watch, preventing anyone with ill intentions from approaching.
Xu Qingmo took the money, a smile appearing on her face.
She saved all the money and planned to give it to Wang Jing when she returned.
Xu Qingmo put the money in a basket, weighed it down with pheasants and rabbits, and then called Wang Dazhuang and others back to the village.
Just as Xu Qingmo reached the village entrance, she saw a car enter the village and park right in front of Wang Xiuzhi's house.
The car door opened, and Wang Jing, dressed in military uniform, stepped out. She had cut her long hair short, sporting a short bob that reached her ears, and looked incredibly dashing.
The passenger door was also opened, and Shen Jiang got out of the car, also dressed in military uniform, looking dashing. Standing next to Wang Jing, they looked very well-matched.
Xu Qingmo paused, carrying the basket on her back, a wave of bittersweet emotion washing over her.
An urge welled up inside her; she wanted to get closer to Wang Jing.
This is the original owner's body's desire for Wang Jing.
This was the first time she had ever felt the pangs of missing her mother.
He started to move his feet and began to jog.
Wang Jing turned to look in Xu Qingmo's direction, her eyes instantly filling with tears. She opened her arms to Xu Qingmo, calling out, "Momo."
“Mom…” Xu Qingmo rushed into Wang Jing’s arms and involuntarily called out “Mom”.
Although I haven't called it out in a long time, it doesn't feel unfamiliar at all now.
When Xu Qingmo was hunting in the mountains, her body and face were covered in dirt, but she was unaware of it, while Wang Jing saw it all clearly.
She took out a handkerchief to wipe the dirt off her face, and then noticed the wild rabbits and pheasants in the basket. Wang Jing's heart ached even more.
