Chapter 203 Aunt Dou's Visit
Wen Zhenyi was slightly surprised: "Not really."
Aunt You looked at Aunt Dou with some worry: "You bought a lot of things this time. Do your mother-in-law and the others know that they were rewards given to you one by one?"
"I know. She's really annoyed by Second Aunt Gousheng, so she wants me and Yiyi to ask her to come work in the store."
Aunt Yin and the others looked at Wen Zhenyi and said, "You can't agree to this. If you agree, you will never have a peaceful life in the future."
Wen Zhenyi is not stupid: "I won't agree, but why did Uncle Dou marry such a wife?"
Aunt Dou's expression turned even uglier when she spoke of this: "This is not what he wanted."
Wen Zhenyi was a little confused.
Aunt Dou looked at Gousheng and the other children and didn't continue the topic.
Wen Zhenyi didn't ask any further questions. As long as they didn't come to her shop to cause trouble, she wouldn't care too much about their family affairs.
Their village was not far from the town, and they had returned to the shop before dark.
Several aunts went to wash the children and asked them to go back to their rooms to sleep first. They still had to grind the rice milk, otherwise they would not be able to do business tomorrow.
Zhu Tao saw that her aunts were not there, so she said to Wen Zhenyi, "Second Uncle Dou was plotted against by Second Aunt Dou."
Wen Zhenyi looked at her in disbelief: "Did you plan this?"
"Well, actually, this is no secret in the village. It's just that you weren't sober during those years, so you didn't know about it."
"How did you plan this?"
"Second Aunt Dou and Aunt Dou were from the same village. One time, when she went to visit relatives in the village with Uncle Dou, she fell in love with Second Uncle Dou. Aunt Dou knew her character, so she told Grandma Dou about it, and the relationship fell through."
"Then how did she become Uncle Dou's wife?"
"Later, during the Lunar New Year, Uncle Dou was busy and couldn't go to deliver the gifts, so he asked Second Uncle Dou to go to Aunt Dou's family to deliver the gifts. That day, Aunt Dou's family invited Second Uncle Dou to their home for dinner and drinks. He was so happy that he drank a few more glasses and slept in the guest room of Aunt Dou's family."
"It just so happened that Second Aunt Dou was visiting. After learning about this, she found an opportunity to sneak into the guest room where Second Uncle Dou was sleeping. Aunt Dou heard a cry and ran to see what was happening. When she saw them, she saw them lying together in disheveled clothes."
Wen Zhen blinked: "So Uncle Dou married her without thinking?"
"What else can I do? Uncle Dou can't clear himself even if he jumps into the Yellow River, and Aunt Dou's family is not easy to deal with either. They insist on making Uncle Dou marry her."
Wen Zhenyi shook his head: "This Second Uncle Dou is really miserable."
"That's right. In the end, Uncle Dou had no choice but to marry her. After Goudan was born, he rarely came home. He was always working outside. He followed the foreman everywhere and only went into the village to visit his parents and Goudan when he passed by occasionally."
Wen Zhenyi couldn't help but admire her. Aunt Dou was a woman who would never give up until she achieved her goal and didn't care about her reputation at all.
Such a shameless person can be said to be invincible in the world.
What Wen Zhenyi didn't expect was that what she feared would come true.
Not long after the store opened the next day, a woman appeared in her store carrying large and small bags and a child.
As soon as I entered the store, I ordered braised beef with rice, hand-pulled pancake with meat, and soy milk and fried dough sticks.
Aunt Yin and the others were stunned when they saw her.
Aunt Dou saw that she was standing there without moving, so she pushed her and said, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and get me something to eat. I must be exhausted from coming out so early in the morning."
"Forty cents in total." Aunt Yin stretched out her hand towards her.
When Aunt Dou saw her reaching out to her, her eyes widened. "What do you mean by 40 cents? Don't you provide food and accommodation here? Hurry and get me some food."
"We haven't heard the owner say they're hiring."
"Why didn't she hire anyone? I'm her new hire. Hurry up and bring me some food."
The noise here attracted several people who were busy in the kitchen.
Aunt Dou's face changed when she saw her, and she ran over quickly: "Why are you here?"
"Of course I'm here to work. This is what you guys always brag about: free food and lodging, but look, now we don't even have breakfast." Aunt Dou said with a look of disgust on her face.
Wen Zhenyi was about to change the menu when he heard the noise in the hall. He walked over and saw Aunt You's angry face: "Aunt You, what's going on?"
Aunt You glanced at Second Aunt Dou and said, "Second Aunt Dou is here."
Wen Zhenyi looked at the fat woman sitting in the hall. Her small eyes looked even smaller because of her obesity. Her clothes were too small, revealing circles of fat. The bags she brought took up the entire table, making it impossible for other guests to sit down.
"You guys go ahead and do your work, I'll go take a look."
Aunt Dou said in a suppressed voice, "We only provide food and accommodation for those who work here. You are not a worker here, so why should we provide you with food?"
"I just came here to work. Didn't you tell that idiot from the Wen family?" Aunt Dou said this with an unhappy look on her face.
As soon as Shen Hanxing entered the store, he heard such a sentence, and his face instantly turned ugly. He looked at the woman sitting there and talking nonsense with an unfriendly look.
Wen Zhenyi saw the change on his face and walked over to him: "Brother Shen, this is a woman's matter, you don't need to interfere."
Shen Hanxing looked down at her: “Don’t be polite to her.”
"I know. Let's go to the backyard and have breakfast first."
Shen Hanxing glanced at Second Aunt Dou again and walked towards the backyard.
Wen Zhenyi walked to Aunt Dou's side: "Aunt Dou, what's wrong?"
When Aunt Dou heard Wen Zhenyi's voice, her face turned pale and ugly: "One by one."
"There's nothing for you to do here, go and do your own thing."
"But..."
"It's okay, let me do it." Wen Zhenyi didn't want to make things difficult for her. After all, this woman was still a member of the Dou family.
Aunt Dou hesitated for a moment, then turned and left.
Wen Zhenyi looked at the woman sitting like a rock. Beside her, Gou Sheng was looking around curiously. "Aunt Dou, are you here for breakfast?"
"I'm here to work. Hurry up and bring me some food so I can get back to work."
"My shop is not hiring right now."
"Look, your shop is doing so well. How can you have more people than just a few? I can help you a lot."
"No need. If you're here for breakfast, please pay. If not, please get up and leave. Don't take up a seat and disturb other guests."
"I say, you little fool, why are you like this? I am your elder after all, how can you not respect me at all? I came to your store to help, which means I think highly of you. Why don't you appreciate it?"
Goudan tugged at Aunt Dou's clothes and said, "Mom, I'm hungry."
