Chapter 19: I have a bad temper, don't mess with me
There is not much entertainment in this era.
Not every household can afford a color TV.
The Fu family was reluctant to even install an electric light. Their life was so miserable that they could forget about buying high-end items like a television.
As soon as it gets dark every day, the old couple of the Fu family would light a kerosene lamp and chat in the house.
Let’s talk about some of the things that happened in the village these days.
It was nothing more than some trivial family matters. Today, someone's wife and someone's man were caught having an affair and got beaten up.
Or maybe the old hen in someone's house is lost, etc.
We can chat about ordinary things for half a night, just to kill time.
As for how Jiang Xin knew these things?
This was all due to the poor insulation of the Fu family's old house. The original owner was forced to listen to Fu Yu's parents say these things almost every day.
At first the original owner thought it was quite novel. The old couple of the Fu family were talking over there, and she was eavesdropping and listening with great interest.
Later, the original owner became numb from listening, because she found that the old couple of the Fu family always talked about the same topics over and over again, and she didn't even know how many times they had repeated them.
Over time, the original owner just felt bored.
Jiang Xin curled the corners of her mouth and paused as she pushed open the door of the Fu family.
She thought expressionlessly that perhaps she would encounter the same thing tonight as the original owner had encountered before.
This old house has poor sound insulation, so we have to endure some hardships.
If she doesn't get enough rest, she will be in a very irritable state all day tomorrow.
She thought that when she took a break, she would go into the space and find a pair of earplugs to wear.
She isolated herself from the outside world. Since she couldn't stop other people from talking, she blocked her own ears and solved the problem directly from the source.
Jiang Xin took a deep breath and pushed open the door of the Fu family's courtyard.
She thought to herself that she should find a flashlight because the yard was dark and she would be in trouble if she fell.
This thought just popped up in her mind.
There was a noise inside the house.
It should be Mr. Fu. After hearing the noise coming from the yard, he knew that someone had come to the house, so he came out with a kerosene lamp to take a look.
It turned out to be Jiang Xin. Seeing that her clothes were all wet, he was slightly stunned at first, but did not ask anything.
He held a kerosene lamp in his hand and walked quickly towards Jiang Xin.
Because the yard was some distance away from the house, Father Fu wanted to move closer to provide some light for Jiang Xin.
This makes walking more convenient.
The atmosphere was tense. After all, Jiang Xin and the old couple of the Fu family had just had a big fight at noon.
It's quite awkward to meet face to face now.
Jiang Xin thought about it and felt quite grateful to Father Fu for coming out in the dark to light the way for her.
So he said:
"Thanks."
After saying that, he silently followed Mr. Fu's footsteps and walked towards the house.
Father Fu is an honest and dull man. Walking with his daughter-in-law at this moment, he must be very conflicted.
He thought, Jiang Xin took the initiative to greet him, if he didn't respond, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to his daughter-in-law?
But Jiang Xin had just had an argument with his wife in the morning.
this……
Mr. Fu's face was full of confusion.
He held it in for a long time, and finally said:
“I’m back.”
After Jiang Xin heard this, her steps, which were originally striding forward, suddenly stopped.
She turned her head mechanically, not daring to believe her ears, wondering if she had heard it wrong.
She had been gone for quite some time when finally Mr. Fu told her, "You're back."
If this was just now, when Father Fu asked this when he saw her for the first time, Jiang Xin would think it was quite normal.
I've been in the yard for a long time and will soon be back in the house.
Father Fu suddenly said this.
It's somewhat funny.
Jiang Xin turned to look at Father Fu, and when she saw him scratching his hands nervously, she immediately understood what was going on.
This Mr. Fu is just trying to find something to talk about with me.
Jiang Xin shook her head helplessly and said "hmm".
After entering the house, Father Fu handed the kerosene lamp in his hand to Jiang Xin, motioning her to take it and light up the lights in her room.
As a grown man, it is naturally inconvenient for Mr. Fu to enter his daughter-in-law's room.
He is very sensible about this.
After Jiang Xin took it, she took the kerosene lamp and lit the one in her room.
The faint light shining in the room was of some use. At least I can see clearly what's going on in the house.
After lighting it, Jiang Xin walked out of the house and returned the kerosene lamp to Fu's father who was still waiting in the main room.
Then she wanted to go into the house.
After all, she was still wearing wet clothes, so in order to avoid catching a cold, she should change them as soon as possible.
After all, the medical situation in today's world is quite worrying.
The only one who is suffering from illness is herself.
Jiang Xin nodded to Mr. Fu and then went back to their room to rest.
As a result, before she could close the door, Fu's mother heard the noise and came out.
Seeing that Jiang Xin was soaked all over, Mother Fu frowned, her face full of displeasure:
"Didn't I tell you to come back before dark? What time is it now?"
"It's already dark outside, you might as well live outside!"
"If something unexpected happens to you in our family, won't my son be labeled as a wife-killer?"
When Mrs. Fu said this, her face was full of fear.
She repeatedly reminded Jiang Xin to come back before dark for her safety.
If she hadn't returned home by dark, the old couple, despite their age, would have to go out to look for her.
Troublesome and laborious!
Mother Fu was halfway through her words when she glanced at Jiang Xin, who was soaked all over.
His brows were furrowed, but the words he said were still so unpleasant to the ear.
"Look at what you have done. If you don't know, you might think you went to the river to wash it!"
"He looks like a drowned rat, so ugly."
"The stench on your body fills the whole house with a strange smell, it's so unpleasant..."
Anyway, he just kept cursing and didn't say a single nice word.
There is not even a word of concern.
Jiang Xin endured it again and again, but finally she couldn't bear it anymore.
She raised her eyes and glared at Fu's mother.
He spoke in a cold voice:
"Why, haven't you learned enough from the lesson you learned at noon today?"
"Want to do it again?"
"I've said before, as long as your son can divorce me, I will move out immediately."
"I really don't want to stay in your Fu family for even a minute."
"I have a bad temper and I know a little bit about fighting. I advise you not to provoke me!"
Even a rabbit will bite when it is angry.
What's more, Jiang Xin is someone who always disobeys discipline.
Jiang Xin looked down at the peach cake and pork in her hands.
I definitely won’t give it to you. I’d rather feed it to the dog than to Fu’s mother!
