Chapter 129: A Wife is to be Loved
Shopkeeper Yao angrily slammed the table and shouted, "Call your shopkeeper here quickly."
Zhang Juexia also stood up. "Who are you? You walked into the wrong room. This room is full of female guests. If you don't leave, we will report you to the police."
Liu Hong laughed heartily. "You... young lady, this is really... interesting. Should I report this to the police?"
He staggered forward two steps and patted his chest. "You... young lady, you're interesting... You didn't even ask... ask, I, Liu Hong... I'm afraid of no one in this town... You even reported it to the police... That's quite interesting."
Zhang Juexia was stunned when he heard that the person who broke in was Liu Hong.
Liu Hong thought his name frightened the woman, and he burped while laughing, "It seems that my name... is really famous. Miss... are you scared?"
Shopkeeper Wan was sweating profusely as he ran forward and hurriedly pulled Liu Hong over. "Look, you've had too much to drink. You can't even remember which room you're in."
Liu Hong pushed Shopkeeper Wan and said, "I'm not drunk. Who said I was drunk? I haven't done what I wanted to do yet, but why was I dragged out?"
Shopkeeper Wan used all his strength to drag Liu Hong out, then called a few of his employees over and said angrily, "Hurry up and drag him away. This is really bad luck."
Liu Hong struggled, but since there were so many waiters around, he soon gave in. "I just want to talk to the ladies, what's wrong with that?"
The words he babbled afterwards were so unbearable to hear that Manager Wan got anxious and covered his mouth with a rag.
"I'm sorry, what about you?"
The drinkers who shared the room with Liu Hong felt bored and didn't want to get into trouble, so they left one after another.
"Manager Wan, Liu Hong is the one who invited us here today, so let him pay for the meal!"
The restaurant is now quiet.
But Zhang Juexia and the others have not yet recovered from their shock.
Wang Guilan asked Li Ju in confusion, "How could the morals in our town be so bad?
If this man did something so shameful in our mountains, he would be scorned by the villagers, and in serious cases, he would be expelled from the village."
Li Ju didn't know how to explain it, because it was the first time she had seen such a thing, not to mention that the person just now was someone Manager Yao knew well.
Zhao Baofeng patted his chest to calm himself down, while also comforting Ye Suyun and Zhang Juexia.
Shopkeeper Yao has been enduring this, and she will get back at him sooner or later.
She tried to put on a smile and said, "Let's not ruin the fun for someone who has nothing to do with us."
Li Ju muttered unwillingly, "Liu Hong doesn't look like that kind of person. What happened to him today?"
"Alcohol makes a coward emboldened, what else can he do? Mrs. Zhao, let's not talk about him anymore. Where were we just talking about?
What a coincidence! We were just talking about Liu Hong's family. They've been busy looking for a shop these past few days, saying they want to open one!"
"They've always bought land and farmed it, and they used to look down on us businessmen."
"They've got in-laws in the county town. They probably think their third son will go on to study, which will cost a lot of money, so they want to pave the way for him!"
Li Ju glanced outside, now relieved, and said the following, "I heard the neighbors are saying that his third son hasn't come back since he got married.
The incident of their family divorcing their wife and marrying another woman caused a lot of uproar. When Liu Sanle got married again, he held the banquet directly in the county town.
It is said that in order to appease his in-laws, Liu Hong directly bought a two-story house for Liu Sanle in the county town.
The eldest of his two other sons said they had a fight over this matter.
Shopkeeper Yao made the decision, "Then it makes sense for them to open a shop. They are probably short of money.
To be honest, Liu Hong is just a show-off. Over the years, he has been relying on his wife's embroidery skills to buy some land and make a living by collecting rent.
Later, his wife's eyesight deteriorated, and he relied on his two daughters-in-law to make embroidery to support the whole family.
He paid for the third son's education and bought a new house. His capable sons are bound to have objections! "
Li Ju was extremely surprised. "How could this be the case with the Liu family? When the eldest and second sons were choosing wives, many families in the town wanted to marry into their family."
Shopkeeper Yao curled his lips and said, "What's so good about his family? Marrying her would just be free labor."
There are few useful men in his family. Apart from showing up to collect rent, they spend the rest of their time drinking with their drinking buddies.
None of the people they associate with are useful. When trouble strikes, they run away faster than rabbits."
Li Ju suddenly understood, "Now that Manager Yao said that, it really is true.
It was lucky that a distant niece of mine was not chosen by the Liu family!
Nowadays, people who marry and move to the county town live a very comfortable life."
Wang Guilan listened to their conversation and understood the situation. "This is the case of a crooked top beam leading to crooked bottom beams. With the way his father behaved just now, how could he raise a good son?"
Shopkeeper Yao was amused. "The old lady is right. It's better not to marry into a family like this."
After saying this, she looked at Zhang Juexia meaningfully.
Zhang Juexia looked calm as he leisurely picked up some food and listened to gossip.
Wang Guilan was still sighing, "You say we are ordinary people, how can we be so calculating? In our family, it doesn't matter if it's our daughter-in-law or our granddaughter-in-law.
As long as they are married into the family, they will be our children. My father and I will love them dearly, so how can we treat them like cattle and horses? "
Shopkeeper Yao picked up his wine glass and said, "Cheers, old lady! What you said is truly sensible. Whoever marries into your family will be blessed!"
Li Ju also agreed with Wang Guilan's words, "When my head of the family came home from work in Yejia Village, he told me that my cousin's family had a good family tradition and he wanted to marry into the family.
I also have three sons, and I can relate to what the old lady said. When you marry a daughter-in-law into your family, you really have to love her.
This is all about exchanging hearts for hearts. When I get old and can’t walk anymore, I’ll still count on them to take care of me!
Wang Guilan took the opportunity to say, "Our Suyun is also very lucky to have such a good mother-in-law like you."
Li Ju smiled and responded, "Suyun is not bad either. The head of the family and I are very satisfied with her. Our Zhao Xin likes her even more!"
Ye Suyun's face suddenly turned as red as a big red cloth, and she lowered her head shyly.
Seeing his young apprentice being teased, Shopkeeper Yao stood up to protect him and said, "There's a lot of time to come. Let's not talk about the younger generation anymore. Let's talk about something else."
The atmosphere in the room quickly returned to normal.
Shopkeeper Wan was worried...
