Chapter 83: Words of Mouth
Su Hongqi came to buy soap, lamp oil, and some meat to take home for a snack.
It just so happened that Su Hongqi wanted to ask Chen Mei out, so he rushed over.
They found a deserted place on the road, and they hugged and kissed each other for a while. When he wanted to get rid of her, Chen Mei took the initiative to bring up the matter of marriage, so Su Hongqi let her go for the time being.
After all, it's still very cold outside, and it's not worth catching a cold for a few minutes.
After they bought half a pound of meat, they took her to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some food.
Chen Mei was willing to marry him because she wanted to make her life better, especially when she saw the half pound of meat he bought, she could hardly hold back her saliva.
The dishes ordered by the educated youth now are all vegetarian dishes without any oil, and she feels that she has lost weight again.
There was no end in sight for this kind of life, and my family had no problem with it. My parents were unable to take me back home, so I could only find a place to marry that would provide me with food and shelter.
They also didn't expect to meet Chu Tong and Chu Hong.
Although Chen Mei had her own calculations in mind, and she also contributed to the divorce of Su Hongqi and Chu Tong, now that she saw the real culprit, she felt a little panicked and subconsciously took two steps back.
Su Hongqi was really afraid of Chu Hong. She was a woman who killed people without spilling any blood and had a cruel heart.
He did not forget that the words Chu Hong said in front of the commune leaders last time almost cost him his life.
But he still didn't dare to offend her, so he could only force a smile: "Are you here to buy things too?"
Seeing Chu Tong holding her daughter's hand, she said dryly, "Xiao Yu'er is here too. Dad will buy you whatever you want to eat."
The little fish said nothing.
Many people thought that the child was ignorant and talked about it in front of Xiaoyuer, saying that it was a pity that she was not a son, otherwise they would not have divorced.
It’s also a pity that Chu Tong has a bad fate. It will be difficult for her to remarry into a family like the Su family after her divorce.
Some people also said that Chu Tong was stupid for bringing such a burden home, which would make it even more difficult for her to get married.
Xiao Yuer resented his own father in his heart, thinking that it was because of him that others talked about his mother.
I also blame my own father for despising me for being a money-loser.
My second aunt clearly said that men and women are equal and that girls can also have a bright future.
Anyway, she was not happy now, seeing him coming to the supply and marketing cooperative with another woman.
In her limited memory, her biological father never spoke to her mother with a smile on his face, nor did he ever say anything so generous as to buy her whatever she wanted to eat.
She felt very uncomfortable and didn't want to call him.
Chu Hong just looked at them and raised her eyebrows, and said lightly: "We still have things to do, you buy more."
Just go out first.
After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Chuchu walked in front holding Xiaoyuer, Xiaojin followed behind them, and Chuhong and Chutong followed behind them carrying backpacks.
Seeing that her elder sister looked unhappy, Chu Hong whispered to comfort her: "You two are no longer related, and he is not worth your sadness."
"You will definitely meet a man who truly treats you well in the future."
Chu Tong felt really bad. They had been married for more than five years and just got divorced. Yet, he couldn't wait to go out with another woman.
This shows that he has already disliked me in his heart.
It’s a pity that I am still working hard in the Su family and living in silence.
Now that I heard what my sister said, I knew she had misunderstood: "I'm not sad, I just regret that I was too stupid and didn't leave the Su family earlier."
At this moment, Chu Tong's heart was as calm as water: "I don't want to get married again. It's better to live comfortably without a man than with a man."
Chu Hong patted her shoulder and comforted her: "Sister, you can't be afraid of the rope after being bitten once. We should change our mindset: it doesn't matter if this man is not good, the next man will be more handsome, better and more obedient."
If she wasn't afraid of scaring her elder sister, Chu Hong would have added: It doesn't matter if the next one is not good, you can always find the next one.
Then he smiled and said, "Of course, sister, if you really don't want to get married again, I would definitely like it."
"Who made my elder sister so virtuous, she can cook and run the house, so I can be lazy at home."
When Song Chuhong was in charge of the warehouse as an accountant, she was just an accountant in name only, and all the work was done by Secretary Song.
Later, Chu Hong came back from Shanghai and took over the accounting job.
But these two jobs are very easy and not busy.
Of course, Grandma Song was at home before, so Chu Hong didn’t have to go back to cook.
Chu Hong is willing to cook because she wants to eat something delicious. She cooks for herself because she thinks her grandmother is reluctant to use oil and fish.
And even though Chu Dan is not very smart, he has a talent for cooking.
Now grandpa and grandma have to help out at second uncle's house. If eldest sister hadn't come back, she wouldn't be willing to let Chu Dan go to the He family as a nanny.
After all, she had to cook three meals a day, and Chu Hong refused from the bottom of her heart.
Fortunately, Chu Tong is back. She is a good cook. If she could use more oil when cooking, the food would taste even better.
But this is a matter of habit. Every time she cooks, Chu Hong always reminds her to add more oil.
I also bought some extra soybean oil so that she would see that there was no shortage of lard and soybean oil at home, and so that I wouldn't have to ask my elder sister to add more oil every time because her hands would tremble.
Chu Tong was embarrassed and anxious when she heard her sister's bold words: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
My second sister didn’t dare to say this before? It must be because of the divorce that her personality changed so drastically.
Chu Hong also felt that divorce was a good thing. It didn't matter how much she changed, because her family would think it was because of her divorce.
She even said nonsense in all seriousness: "It is because I have awakened to the new era and new ideas that I can become the women's director of three villages."
She is also very proud: "If the women in the three villages can be as conscious as me, then I will be a successful women's director."
Chu Tong felt that she was too arrogant and couldn't help but pour cold water on her: "If all women become like you, then you have to be careful that you will be beaten to death by men."
After all, many of Chu Hong's thoughts and even actions are considered unorthodox in the eyes of most people. Not only men cannot accept them, but even some women cannot understand them.
Chu Hong also understood: "Indeed, some thoughts are deeply rooted."
"That's why we have to teach by example, so that Xiaoyuer and Chuchu won't be wronged when they grow up."
Chu Tong agreed with this statement: "If our parents were not so conscious, I would not dare to divorce."
She also thinks that leadership is very important. For example, in Lingxia Village, her father is kind to her mother and has never beaten or kicked her, so the men in the village rarely hit their wives.
In Lingshang Village, you could hear about men beating their wives every now and then.
Even Secretary Su often beat Aunt Su.
Even though Su Hongwei treats Liu Fangfang nicely now, when Liu Fangfang was not pregnant, he would slap her in the face if she said anything that didn't please Su Hongwei.
The reason why Liu Fangfang disliked her was because her father was the Song branch secretary of Lingxia Village, which made the Su family fear her and they didn't dare to do anything to her before.
