Chapter 116 focuses on mutual harm, right?
Some time ago, the couple went to Zhao's house for a wedding banquet. Cao Biao was so happy that he drank too much. In front of his father-in-law and Zhao's relatives, he boasted that he would arrange a job for his brother-in-law in the Huaixi Village Security Brigade.
Zhao Chunhua, who was unaware of the situation, returned to her parents' home today. When her father-in-law Cao Biao mentioned the matter, she learned about the promise her husband made when he was drunk.
But when she came back from her parents' home and asked Cao Biao about it, he hadn't remembered it at all. Zhao Chunhua was so angry that she started arguing with him.
Zhou Yong and Xing Laoqi looked at each other, then looked at Cao Biao. He raised his hand and scratched his head awkwardly, pursed his lips and said nothing.
Zhao Chunhua wiped her tears and complained to Cao Biao: "You always drink cat urine and don't know how much you are worth. You keep bragging. If you don't do this for me, how can I go back to my parents' home in the future..."
Cao Biao sat on the edge of the kang, raised his hand to rub his face, and muttered quietly: "Wasn't I drunk at the time? Who can remember what I said?"
Zhao Chunhua got angry when she heard this. She opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say. Because Zhou Yong and Xing Laoqi were there, she just snorted coldly in the end.
Xing Laoqi frowned, feeling that this matter was somewhat difficult.
If Cao Biao fails to fulfill his promise, the couple will not be able to face the Zhao family in the future. After all, he was the one who made the boast, and he said it in front of so many people.
If the promise is fulfilled, the public security brigade is now overcrowded, and even if Cao Biao is the brigade leader, it would be difficult to arrange for someone to go in.
Xing Laoqi glanced at the dispirited Cao Biao and felt that he was just reaping what was his own fault.
He thought that they were as close as brothers, and others could laugh at Cao Biao, but he couldn't do that.
Xing Laoqi looked at Zhou Yong and asked him what to do.
Zhou Yong sighed in his heart. If the Zhao family were villagers of Huaixi Village, this matter would be easy to solve. Although the public security brigade is not short of people, the brigade has more staff members, and if there is a shortage of staff members, he can just say a word.
However, Cao Biao's brother-in-law is from another village. If they want him to join the team, he must first become a villager of Huaixi Village and secondly, he needs to move his household registration there.
Even so, his brother-in-law could not start working immediately and needed to live in Huaixi Village for a year or two.
Otherwise, the villagers' spit would be enough to drown Cao Biao and Zhou Yong. After all, there are more than 3,000 people in Huaixi Village, and they can only hire people from their own village.
"Zhou Yong, can you please say something?"
Zhou Yong looked at Xing Laoqi who said this, and said after thinking: "This is not easy to handle."
Xing Laoqi smacked his lips: "If it's easy, I won't ask you anymore. Come up with a solution quickly."
Zhou Yong glanced at Xing Laoqi and said, "It's easier for you to stand and talk."
Xing Laoqi shut up with a sad face. Cao Biao looked at them and said, "I'll handle this matter myself. At worst, I won't go to my father-in-law's house anymore."
Zhao Chunhua was unwilling to do so. Her face was not a face and her nose was not a nose: "What? Should I break off relations with my family because of your bragging?"
Cao Biao said with a guilty tone: "Can you please stop complaining? This is only temporary. Otherwise, I can't think of a solution to the problem..."
Zhao Chunhua was so angry that she stood up and hit Cao Biao with a feather duster.
Cao Biao was in the wrong and did not fight back, but he did not stand up either. He dodged back and forth. Zhao Chunhua chased him, and Xing Laoqi and Zhou Yong hurried over to separate them.
After separating the couple, Zhao Chunhua was so angry that she cried and made a fuss.
Zhou Yong and Xing Laoqi comforted Zhao Chunhua, and they found an excuse to kidnap Cao Biao away from home.
After leaving the house, Cao Biao breathed a sigh of relief: "Luckily you guys came, otherwise I don't know how your sister-in-law would make trouble with me!"
Zhou Yong glanced at the careless Cao Biao and asked, "Do you think this matter is over?"
Cao Biao pursed his lips and said guiltily: "I was drunk at the time, I really don't remember what I said..."
If he was sober, he would never make such a promise. Now Cao Biao regrets it.
The three of them came to the school while chatting. Before they entered the house, Ma San and Liu Dazhuang came out to greet them with a smile.
It was freezing cold outside, but warm as spring inside the house.
Several people entered the house and gathered around the stove to warm themselves by the fire to dispel the cold.
Liu Juan smiled and carried the table into the house: "Dinner will be served soon."
Seeing this, Liu Dazhuang hurriedly helped to pick up the bowls and chopsticks. Xing Laoqi, Zhou Yong and Cao Biao were also not idle, helping to serve the dishes and rice.
"Everyone, start eating. Stop watching."
They had the pig-killing meal tonight. In addition to this dish, Liu Juan also made stir-fried pork intestines and braised spareribs as home-cooked cold dishes to relieve greasiness.
Cao Biao was looking at the food on the table and his mouth was almost drooling. Without saying a word, he picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.
Xing Laoqi glanced at Cao Biao, who was good at eating and drinking, and said, "Captain, I really admire you."
Cao Biao raised his eyebrows and spoke incoherently: "Can crying solve the problem?"
Liu Dazhuang and Ma San looked at each other, and both realized that something was wrong.
Under their questioning, Xing Laoqi told the whole story.
Liu Dazhuang didn't show much reaction. Ma San glanced at Cao Biao and said, "Let's not talk about those unhappy things. Let's have a good meal tonight..."
Cao Biao liked to hear this, and they ate and chatted. Liu Juan was also at the table, but she didn't eat a single bite of meat.
"Sister-in-law, why do you only eat rice and not vegetables?"
This question was asked by Xing Laoqi, and Zhou Yong and others looked at Liu Juan.
Ma San coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention to him. Liu Juan lowered her head in embarrassment.
"I have good news for you. I'm going to be a father."
Cao Biao bared his teeth and laughed unhappily: "Fuck, you are really fast, unlike someone who took three years to get his wife pregnant..."
The smile on Zhou Yong's face gradually froze as he was implied. Xing Laoqi felt that Cao Biao's words were too mean and he couldn't help laughing out loud.
Liu Dazhuang looked at Zhou Yong with a smile, although he didn't say anything, the expression on his face betrayed his inner thoughts.
Zhou Yong gritted his teeth and glanced at Cao Biao angrily: "Old Cao, stop making fun of my affairs. If you have time, go home more often to face your sister-in-law. Don't get kicked out of the house and stay on the street..."
Cao Biao's laughter stopped abruptly. Zhou Yong secretly raised his eyebrows and thought: The main theme is to hurt each other, right? Do you think I'm afraid of you?
Xing Laoqi smiled with tears in his eyes. Liu Dazhuang said quietly, "Captain, if you have no place to stay at night, you can go to the duty room of the Public Security Brigade..."
Cao Biao was depressed and ate silently. Xing Laoqi wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "Let someone heat up the duty room later. We can't let the captain sleep on the cold kang."
Ma San watched the excitement with a smile, and when he saw that it was almost over, this guy stood up to defend Cao Biao.
A few people were drinking and eating enthusiastically when the sound of knocking on the window reached everyone's ears.
There were cotton curtains hanging on the windows, so we couldn't see what was happening outside. Everyone quickly hid some of the dishes, leaving only a small pot of sauerkraut and some home-cooked cold dishes on the kang table.
Liu Juan calmed herself down and went to the door to remove the door bolt.
The person knocking on the window turned out to be Liu Juan's neighbor, who wanted to borrow a shoe sample.
After seeing off the neighbors and locking the door, everyone put the dishes on the table one by one.
Xing Laoqi looked at the food on the table and said timidly: "Next time, let's go to the old place to eat. It's too unsafe to stay at home..."
