Chapter 272: Cheating on Both Sides
"Fuck you, why are you still busy with this?
Sanbengzi came back and was at Cai Baba's house at the entrance of the village.
Your son is doing well in the city and is wearing new clothes!"
Sanbengzi's biological mother, Fan Qigu, was wiping the table with a rag at home.
After hearing this, he threw away the rag, took a step, and flew out.
When he reached the village entrance, he pushed Cai Baba aside, grabbed Sanbengzi's hand, and asked anxiously:
"Son, why are you back today?"
It's not a festival, and usually the three-wheeled motorcycle doesn't come back.
It costs money to take the bus back and forth, and if she saves a little more of this money, she can buy a pound of meat.
Sanbenzi was shaking his legs proudly and brushing off the non-existent dust on his clothes with his hands.
When his mother grabbed his wrist, he could no longer hold back his nonsense.
"Mom, I came back because I have something important to tell you, let's..."
Cai Gossip was the first to come over.
"Let's go, let's go back and talk."
Aunt Fan Qi squeezed her son's hand hard, interrupting him from speaking.
"Hey, we're all from the same village, we're all family. Is there anything we can't listen to?"
"Cai Bitch, what does the Fan family's affairs have to do with you?"
The mother and son rushed home, and Aunt Fan Qi carefully closed the door.
"Son, go ahead and talk. Mom is listening."
Sanbengzi sat down on the bench, crossed his legs, and was very happy.
"Mom, you're going to have a daughter-in-law who is a college student soon. Are you happy?"
"Really? Of course I'm happy...
Wait, son, it's still daytime?"
What nonsense are you talking about in broad daylight?
Aunt Fan Qi is also a self-aware person. College students are not precious these days!
None of the students from Huaihua Village passed the exam, only the daughter of Captain Fan from Yingtaogou was admitted to a junior college.
That's a big deal, everyone in the area knows about it.
A golden phoenix emerged from Cherry Valley.
"Mom, I'm not talking nonsense. Isn't Cheng Shuang the wife you and my dad arranged for me?
She got into college and someone sent me a letter.
If you still don't believe me, I went to the school and checked it out, it's true!"
Sanbengzi jumped up anxiously, gesturing with his fingers as he spoke.
He didn't lie.
Fan Qigu sneered.
"Son, I'm afraid you've been deceived.
How can Cheng Shuang be a college student? Isn’t he still making a living in the village?
The people who get into college in our area are from Yingtaogou next door. There’s no way a golden phoenix will fly out of Huaihuagou!”
"That's impossible. That person clearly said he was Cheng Shuang, and his hometown is also our village."
"Is that girl really Cheng Shuang? Come with me."
Aunt Fan Qi was also a little uncertain, so she pulled her son's hand and the two of them rushed to Old Cheng's house on the other side of the village.
Old Cheng's house is a bit far away, and the houses are sparsely populated.
The muddy road here is narrow and bad. After walking on it, your shoes will be in a mess when you get home.
Cheng Hai is the second child, and the eldest Cheng is a son-in-law.
The Cheng family escaped here during the famine, so the villagers don’t like to bring these outsiders to play.
In addition, Cheng Hai was said to have had his legs broken by the red armbands in the city, and Cheng Laoer's family became even more invisible.
The two of them peeked out from behind the old locust tree, and after waiting for a while, they saw Cheng Shuang coming out to feed the chickens.
"Did you see that? Son, isn't this guy squatting at home?"
"Who is my wife then?"
Sanbengzi was also confused. He had never seen this man's face before in the city.
As for height, the two are really about the same.
As for personality, his mother once said that Chengdu Laoer only has one daughter and she was raised to be spoiled.
After watching it, I turned around and went home.
"I thought you were being tricked. I guess it's someone with the same name."
Sanbengzi looked disappointed.
When Fan Qigu took a detour and happened to pass by Cheng Lao's house, she thought of something.
"I used to hear from Cai Gossip that Cheng Shuang was a good student, and I wanted to marry her.
There is no head of the Cheng family in the second family, and I mentioned this to the head of the Cheng family.
She agreed immediately, and Boss Cheng and your father became close friends."
Sanbengzi still couldn't bear the gap. His wife went from being a college student to an ordinary village woman. Who could bear this?
"Last time when Cheng Laoer was admitted to the hospital, I gave him 15 yuan. Cheng Laoer's family said they would just use it as half of the betrothal gift, and I agreed."
The more Fan Qigu thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Why hadn't Cheng Laoer come to her to discuss the matter of the two children?
Although there were rumors in the village that Cheng Hai was very sick and would not be able to hold on any longer.
Don’t you want to see your daughter get married before you leave?
I glanced at the door of Mr. Cheng's house several times and saw someone coming back.
He turned and went straight to Cheng's house.
She is an impatient person and she must get to the bottom of it today. She feels uncomfortable keeping it in her heart.
"Son, let's go and find out."
The three-wheeled vehicle nodded, held its head high, and followed behind with a swagger.
"Hey, the eldest sister is at home."
The person who was stopped had a subtle expression on his face, but as soon as he saw who was coming, he immediately smiled again.
This person is Su Sanmei, Cheng Lao Da's wife.
"This is a three-wheeled vehicle, right? It's really handsome!"
He is also one of the best at telling lies with open eyes.
I was thinking: Why is this family here?
He quickly welcomed the person in and politely poured two large bowls of tea for him.
"Sister, I won't say any more nonsense. Isn't it time to settle the matter between Sanbengzi and your Cheng Shuang?"
After Fan Qigu finished speaking, she remained cautious and paid attention to the reaction of the person opposite her.
"Don't worry about this matter, my old man Cheng has also told the second son.
After all, it is a big deal for the young couple, and it is not easy to just brush it off.
Everyone knows that your Fan family is a distinguished family in the village."
"Of course, but regarding the betrothal gift, what we said last time should still count.
I'll only be offering fifteen dollars then?"
Fan Qigu was not a sucker either. Thirty yuan for a betrothal gift was indeed a lot in the village.
Su Sanmei nodded: "That's natural, the second brother is not a greedy person.
Besides, as his aunt, I feel relieved that Cheng Shuang is marrying Sanbengzi."
Aunt Fan Qi took a few big sips of tea and mentioned it casually.
"By the way, big sister, has our Cheng Shuang graduated from high school and taken the college entrance exam?"
Su Sanmei sneered and looked away at the three-wheeled vehicle.
"You are really joking, she only graduated from junior high school and didn't even finish high school.
How could she possibly get into university?"
Aunt Fan Qi echoed: "I'm just asking casually, this woman just needs to take care of the housework.
Oh, it’s already this late, I have to go back and cook, I’m done talking.”
"Walk slowly."
Su Sanmei waved to the people, and after they left, the smile on her face disappeared.
She is really asking for trouble. Why would Fan Qigu come home and mention that matter for no reason?
Only she and Lao Cheng knew about this matter, and they kept it a secret. Not even the second brother's family was told a word.
Not to mention that damn girl Cheng Shuang.
"No, I have to think about it carefully when Old Cheng comes back, and I'll just marry Cheng Shuang off right away.
There is no reason why I, Su Sanmei, should return the money that has come into her hands."
