Chapter 215 What do you think of my old son?
Although it is the busy farming season, the cadres of the commune will not rest on weekends unless there is something important, and they will go to the various brigades to help with the autumn harvest.
But Su Mo's work content is different from everyone else's, and her child is still young. Taking her actual situation into consideration, Li Hongjun and Fu Ming let her rest normally on weekends.
It was the weekend again, Su Mo was at home taking care of the baby, and Li Yue'e took on the eight-centimeter work, and was busy until dark before she got off work and went home.
As they were walking, suddenly an auntie who they didn't interact with much came over and said to Li Yue'e, "Secretary's family, can we talk?"
Li Yue'e thought she had something to report, so she nodded and walked to the side of the road with her to talk.
This situation is not uncommon. Some women have something to report and don't dare to talk to the branch secretary or team leader, so they will talk to their mothers-in-law, who will report it to their men.
When they got to the roadside, Li Yue'e showed a very kind smile and said: "No rush, just speak slowly."
The aunt was still a little shy at first, but when she saw Li Yue'e smiling at her, she gained a lot of courage and said, "Well, your daughter is divorced, and it's probably hard to find another wife. We are in the same team, and everyone knows everything about her. What do you think of my old son?"
"Don't worry, I've watched Xiaolan grow up, and I won't mind her being married for the second time."
When Li Yue'e heard this, her face darkened instantly. This old guy has two sons. The eldest son is kind of decent. The younger son is a lazy man at best, and a second-rate at worst.
Such a bastard dared to covet her daughter. How much wife's urine did he drink to dare to think so?
"My daughter doesn't want to get married for the time being. Let's talk about it in a few years." Li Yue'e waved her hand. "
Oh, Secretary's family, please don't delay my daughter. It's hard to find a second marriage. If you delay for a few more years, I'm afraid she won't be able to get married."
Li Yue'e was so angry. Does this old man know how to talk? What does it mean to be unable to get married?
"Even if she can get married, she can only marry a man whose wife died and has children. I am willing to let my son marry a second marriage because I think your family is good. If it were someone else, I would not be happy."
Li Yue'e really laughed, "Your son is so rich, my daughter can't marry him, you can find another one."
Li Yue'e wanted to leave after she finished speaking, but was pulled by the aunt.
"Secretary's family, haven't I told you that my family doesn't mind. I think the two children are good and suitable. Why don't we find a day after the autumn harvest and let Xiaolan move the roof over. This is a second marriage, so there won't be any ceremony."
Li Yue'e slapped the auntie's hand away and really wanted to slap her in the face, "Your family doesn't mind, but mine does."
"What?" The auntie didn't react.
"I said, I don't like your old son."
"What's wrong with my old son? He's a strong young man, and he's married for the first time. Your daughter is divorced, how good a family do you want to find?"
"We don't want to find a good family, but at least the person has to be down-to-earth and hardworking. We don't like second-rate people like your old son."
"Hey, what are you talking about? How can my old son be a second-rate person?"
"A young man, who works worse than an old woman like me, is lazy and lazy every day, and relies on his parents, brothers and sisters-in-law to support him at home. What else can he be but a second-rate person?" Li Yue'e was not polite either.
"He is just immature and ignorant. He will be fine when he gets married."
"My daughter doesn't have the habit of being a mother to others. You should raise your son first." Li Yue'e was also a sharp-tongued person. After saying that, she walked away.
The aunt was so angry that her face turned green. She spat, "A second marriage, and she's packing big cloves of garlic. In the future, even if you beg me, my family won't accept it."
Su Mo was resting at home. Thinking that Li Yue'e had to work all day outside and it was too tiring for her to cook when she came back, she baked some cakes at home, put a dozen of them in a bamboo basket, and sent them to the Lu family. Just as
she walked out the door, she saw Li Yue'e coming back angrily, so she asked what happened.
Li Yue'e told her what happened on the way.
"Xiao Mo, I'm worried! In this country, divorced women have to lose value in their eyes. But Xiaolan has a job, and the third child has a promising future. Those who have bad ideas will come to our door."
"This matter is still a problem. I'm afraid that there will be a lot of filthy people coming to our door in the future." If there is one family, there will be a second one.
Su Mo heard this and realized that it was true. Once someone started it, other people who were waiting on the sidelines might come one after another.
If it was good, it would be fine. But if it was bad, it would be really disgusting.
When someone came to your house and asked for marriage, you could not do anything about it except disagreeing. It was really disgusting
. Therefore, the best way was to express your attitude in a swift and powerful way as soon as someone showed up.
"Mom, we have to take an attitude on this matter, and let those people who have ideas know that Xiaolan is not someone who can be coveted by anyone."
"That's what I think, too, Xiaomo, do you have any good ideas?"
"How about this? Let's take the aunt and her old son just now as an example. Starting tomorrow, we will arrange the hardest and most tiring work for them, so that those people can see our attitude."
"Mom thinks it's okay, but your dad may not agree." The old man is the most fair, and he may not be willing to do such a personal revenge.
"Mom, explain it clearly to dad, I think he will agree." Su Mo saw that Lu Qing'an loved Lu Xiaolan very much.
Lu Xiaolan wanted to divorce, and Li Yue'e opposed it, but Lu Qing'an never said a word of "no" from beginning to end.
Su Mo handed the bamboo basket to Li Yue'e, "Mom, I just made some stuffed buns for you to eat in the evening, so don't cook. The child is still sleeping on the kang, I'll go back first."
"Then you go back quickly." Li Yue'e waved her hand.
Xiao Mo was also very brave, she actually brought the two children home by herself. Fortunately, they couldn't crawl, otherwise what would happen if they fell off the kang.
When Lu Qing'an came back, Li Yue'e told him about it. Lu Qing'an was so angry that he agreed without saying a word, and went to Lu Baoguo's house after dinner.
Li Yue'e looked at him with new eyes.
After Lu Xiaolan finished washing the dishes, she saw Lu Qing'an going out with a flashlight, so she asked, "Mom, where is my dad at this time of night?"
"He has something to discuss with your uncle Baoguo." Li Yue'e said, then turned around and asked, "Xiaolan, do you have any plans for the future?"
"What plans?"
"It's about the major events in your life. Do you have any ideas?"
"Mom, I just got divorced not long ago, I don't want to think about these. Besides, I'm not going to get married again. I'll just stay at home to take care of my parents in their old age."
"Nonsense, you're only 21 years old, why don't you get married again? Your parents have three brothers to take care of them in their old age, they don't need you."
"Mom, did someone say something to you?" Lu Xiaolan thought about it and felt that something was wrong. She had been divorced for less than half a month, and her mother wouldn't tell her so early.
Li Yue'e thought about it and decided to tell Lu Xiaolan about it, so that those people wouldn't be able to say it to her and would go to the concubine to say it, so that the concubine could be mentally prepared.
After hearing this, Lu Xiaolan really had an expression as if she had swallowed a dead fly. She thought those people were just talking to her, but she didn't expect that they actually had their eyes on her.
