Chapter 17 The gap between the reality of the Du family and her imagination is too big!
"You know I'm a good person, so don't make trouble. The weather will get cold after an autumn rain. I'll knit your sweater as soon as possible." Wang Ying pushed Zhao Yunsheng without asking him why he suddenly said he was a good person.
Zhao Yunsheng let go of Wang Ying and took her hand again, pinching her fingers one by one: "Thank you."
Zhao Yunsheng squatted before Wang Ying, holding her hand. Wang Ying looked at him. If they could continue to be so happy, their married life would be sweet and worth looking forward to. However, today was only the second day of their marriage, and no one knew what else Zhao Yunsheng's handsome face hid.
"Okay, I'll weave for a while while the sun is still shining," said Wang Ying.
Zhao Yunsheng let go of Wang Ying, went into the room, took out a candy, peeled it and put it in Wang Ying's mouth.
Zhao Yunsheng did not continue reading. He sat at the desk, took a pen and paper and wrote something.
Wang Ying knitted a few lines and looked back at Zhao Yunsheng. She saw that he was writing furiously with an extremely focused expression.
Wang Ying smiled and turned around to continue knitting.
-
At the Du family, Wang Hui was in a bad mood. Since yesterday, she felt that the two sisters-in-law in the family were very cold to her, especially the younger sister-in-law, who was against her in every way.
This morning at breakfast, Du Wenli complained that Wang Hui's porridge was too watery. Wang Hui couldn't say it was her mother-in-law who forbade her from adding more rice, so she could only say, "I'll make it thicker tomorrow."
After breakfast, Wang Hui was called by Sun Qiaoling to do the laundry. Wang Hui was the only one who had to do all the laundry for everyone in the family. Sun Qiaoling didn't do anything, but instead praised Wang Hui, saying she was efficient and a master at handling the household. Wang Hui wasn't stupid; after hearing this a few times, she realized her mother-in-law was flattering her and asking her to work harder.
When Wang Hui was washing clothes in the yard, Du Wenli and Du Jianguo were playing around in the yard, Du Wenxiu was standing at the door eating melon seeds, and Du Jianguo's grandmother even came over and told Wang Hui to use less soap...
How could Wang Hui not be angry? She rubbed the clothes with such force that she accidentally rubbed Du Wenli's shirt.
Du Wenli was originally playing with Du Jianguo, and when she noticed that Wang Hui had damaged her clothes, she started to make a fuss and asked Wang Hui to compensate her.
Wang Hui tolerated Du Wenli for two days, then threw the ruined shirt she had washed into the basin and stood up to argue with her.
At this time, Sun Qiaoling came out from the inner room and started scolding without asking a question: "What are you doing, you damn girl? Your second sister-in-law washed your clothes and ruined them!"
"She ruined my shirt. What should I wear to school the day after tomorrow?" Du Wenli yelled.
"You are wearing too much clothes at home! Don't yell at your sister-in-law. If you yell again, I will hit you in the mouth with a spatula!" Sun Qiaoling scolded.
Du Wenli ran back to her room angrily. Sun Qiaoling scolded Du Wenli and walked over to Wang Hui: "Huihui, don't bother with Wenli. She's still young! She's been spoiled by her father. She'll be sensible in two years."
Wang Hui thought, she was only eighteen, not much older than Du Wenli, but since her mother-in-law had said so, what could she do? She nodded and said, "I understand, Mom."
Sun Qiaoling smiled and said, "Huihui is very sensible. I wish my two daughters were as sensible as you."
Wang Hui knew that Sun Qiaoling was flattering her again, but she was still happy to hear it. She smiled again and said, "Mom, I'll continue washing clothes. I'll mend Wenli's clothes later."
"Okay, then Mom will go and get busy." Sun Qiaoling returned to her room, leaving only Du Jianguo and Wang Hui in the yard.
Wang Hui glanced at Du Jianguo. Just as Du Jianguo was about to walk over, he heard a voice from Wang Hui's room: "Second brother! Come here!"
Du Jianguo smiled at Wang Hui and said, "I'll go see Wen Li. I'll be right back."
As a result, he didn't come back until Wang Hui finished washing the clothes. Wang Hui washed, rinsed, and hung the clothes out to dry. Only after she had hung all the clothes out to dry did Du Wenli come out of the room with Du Jianguo, eating candy.
Wang Hui ignored them, packed up the basin and washboard, and went back to her room alone.
Du Wenli made faces at Wang Hui's back, and Du Jianguo saw it but didn't say anything.
Wang Hui returned to her room and sat on the edge of the bed, sulking. She was disgusted by her sister-in-law. Her mother-in-law only said nice things. Du Jianguo left as soon as his sister called him. The entire Du family was completely different from what she had imagined.
Wang Hui sat by the bed for a while, and then Du Jianguo came in. As soon as he came in, he closed the door and inserted the bolt.
"Huihui." Du Jianguo walked over and sat down next to Wang Hui.
Wang Hui turned around and faced Du Jianguo away. Du Jianguo sighed, feeling like another difficult woman had arrived at his home.
However, Du Jianguo knew that Wang Hui was different from the other women in his family. He hugged Wang Hui and whispered, "Good Huihui, don't be angry. Wenli is just childish. She thinks you stole her brother away, so she's acting like this. It will get better over time. Just for my sake, don't argue with her."
Wang Hui thought about the big words she had said at her mother's house and Du Jianguo's bright future, so she had to swallow her anger for the time being.
"Brother Jianguo, I'm not angry at Wenli, but at you for not saying a word to help me at that time." Wang Hui said, looking at Du Jianguo sadly.
"It's not that I don't want to help you. If I help you, she will make trouble even more! I know my younger sister too well, Huihui. I am definitely on your side in my heart. She will get married in a few years and become someone else's family. What does it have to do with me? We are going to be husband and wife for life." Du Jianguo said.
Wang Hui felt relieved after hearing this.
Du Jianguo had calmed Wang Hui down that morning, and the family had a relatively peaceful lunch. After lunch, Du Wenli started making a scene again. Although she was in her room, Wang Hui heard it, and she clamored for a pair of leather shoes.
Leather shoes weren't easy to buy back then; you needed special tickets or industrial coupons. Du Jianguo had just gotten married, and the family had used up all their tickets and coupons. Besides, Du Wenli, a junior high school student, didn't need leather shoes, so Sun Qiaoling naturally refused to buy them for her.
Du Wenli kept making a fuss, and finally it came down on Wang Hui. Wang Hui got married and bought two new pairs of leather shoes.
When Wang Hui heard Du Wenli making a fuss in her room, she knew what she was trying to do and she felt more and more disgusted with her sister-in-law.
Just as Wang Hui was wondering whether she should ask Du Jianguo to go out and play, she heard her father-in-law, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly speak up: "The third girl is so noisy. How about asking her second sister-in-law to share a pair with her first, and then buy her another pair when she gets a coupon."
Wang Hui didn't expect that this old man could be so partial.
When Du Wenli heard what her father said, she immediately went to push Wang Hui's door. The door latch was on, and Du Wenli couldn't push it open, so she started knocking on the door.
"Brother! Sister-in-law! Why are you locking the door in broad daylight? Open the door!" Du Wenli knocked and shouted at the door. None of the adults in the Du family stopped her.
Wang Hui was shaking with anger and shouted at Du Jianguo: "Don't open it!"
Du Jianguo looked at Wang Hui, then at the door, and for a moment he didn't know whether he should open it or not.
"Second sister-in-law! Open the door, Dad asked you to give me a pair of leather shoes." Du Wenli continued to shout, knocking on the door loudly.
Wang Hui never thought that the Du family's mother-in-law was a nice person, and her husband was also good, but she had a lawless sister-in-law!
"Dad! Dad! Second sister-in-law won't open the door! Go and call her to open the door." Du Wenli started shouting again.
Wang Hui was so angry that tears were streaming down her face as she just looked at Du Jianguo.
Du Jianguo wanted to hug Wang Hui, but Wang Hui pushed him away. She just stared at him and asked him to solve the problem.
Du Jianguo has never been a man of his own opinions. He listens to whoever has the loudest voice in the family. At this time, he has no idea what to do.
"Or, you can give her the leather shoes first. She won't give up until she gets them." Du Jianguo said in a low voice.
Wang Hui didn't expect that Du Jianguo didn't even resort to such means. He was completely different from the Du Jianguo in his previous life.
Du Jianguo felt guilty for a moment when he met Wang Hui's resentful eyes, but he really didn't dare to be mean to Du Wenli, especially since his father was still at home.
What made Wang Hui even more devastated was that her father-in-law actually came knocking on the door.
"Second brother, open the door and take out a hundred yuan to buy your wife a pair of shoes." Du Jianguo's father Du Weimin said.
As soon as her father-in-law said this, Wang Hui fell on the pillow and burst into tears. What kind of family did she marry into? Why was it like this after getting married?
Seeing Wang Hui crying miserably, Du Jianguo didn't dare to open the door.
Sun Qiaoling's voice came from the doorway: "What are you talking about? Those are Huihui's wedding shoes! I just went to the bathroom, and you guys are making such a fuss."
"Didn't I give you the money? One hundred yuan is enough to buy two or three pairs," said Du Weimin.
"You've spoiled Wenli to death! Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if others tell others about it? Don't stand here anymore! How can a father-in-law stand at the door and call out to his sons and daughters-in-law? It doesn't look good!" Sun Qiaoling pulled Du Weimin away.
Du Wenli wanted to make a fuss again, but was hit by Sun Qiaoling with a broom. She heard Wang Hui crying loudly in the room, so she didn't dare to make a fuss anymore and ran back to her room.
Sun Qiaoling really didn't expect Du Jianguo's father to do this. She thought that Wen Li would calm down after a while if she ignored her. But she didn't expect that when she went to the bathroom and came back, she saw Du Weimin standing at the door of his son and daughter-in-law...
Sun Qiaoling listened to Wang Hui's wailing in the room and sighed. "Jianguo is useless. He can't be relied on at all. He can't be comforted by his sister, and neither can his wife." She walked back to the door of Wang Hui's room and knocked twice gently.
"Huihui, it's mom. Ask Jianguo to open the door." Sun Qiaoling said as gently as possible.
Du Jianguo still didn't dare, and asked Wang Hui in a low voice: "Huihui, can I open it?"
Wang Hui sat up, wiped her tears, walked over to open the latch, and then walked over and lay on the pillow.
Sun Qiaoling pushed open the door and came in, signaling Du Jianguo to leave. Du Jianguo looked at Wang Hui and didn't dare to leave, but since his mother asked him to leave, he didn't dare to stay.
Finally, Sun Qiaoling glared at him fiercely, and he said to Wang Hui, "Huihui, I need to go to the bathroom."
Sun Qiaoling walked to the bed and sat down, touching Wang Hui's head and said, "Huihui, this is your father and Wenli's fault. You have been wronged. Mom apologizes to you on their behalf."
Wang Hui sat up, wiped her tears, and sobbed, unable to speak.
Sun Qiaoling continued to talk to herself, "It's said that a family cannot do without a woman. I was away for a while and this happened. Your father works away from home all year round and is surrounded by men. He doesn't know how to speak in a roundabout way. He doesn't have a bad heart, he just can't speak well. Jianguo sometimes has a temper like his father. You are young too. If I had a hundred yuan, I would take it first. I can buy all kinds of leather shoes in the future. It's not worth it to be angry. The benefits in your hands are real."
Wang Hui understood what Sun Qiaoling meant. She could just accept the hundred yuan and give the shoes to Du Wenli. This way, she could settle the relationship between the aunt and sister-in-law and get the money, and everyone would be happy.
The problem was that Du Wenli had been provoking Wang Hui since yesterday. She was already angry and there was no way she could endure it.
Sun Qiaoling persuaded Wang Hui for a long time before Wang Hui came to her senses. She was still angry with Du Wenli, but she had a lot of good feelings towards her mother-in-law and thought that she was really teaching her how to be a good person.
Du Jianguo walked around outside and squatted in the yard. When he saw his mother coming out of their room, he stood up and walked over to ask, "How's Huihui?"
Sun Qiaoling rolled her eyes at him and said, "It's useless. I can't coax my wife, and I can't persuade my sister!"
"Then I'll go back and see Huihui." Du Jianguo turned around and left without responding to his mother.
Wang Hui was still sitting by the bed. Her tears had stopped flowing, but she was still upset. The Du family was so different from what she had imagined. Why hadn't she listened to her elder sister in her previous life?
Wang Hui couldn't remember that Wang Ying had mentioned this in her previous life, but Wang Hui was so proud at the time that she didn't care about her sister's hardship. She only remembered that her sister later became rich, and she wanted to enjoy the good life with her, and even steal her sister's husband.
