Chapter 56 Gossip, Marriage Tutorial

Aunt Huang nodded sympathetically, glanced at her grandson who was watching intently beside her, and called the educated youth Xiao Ming to come over.

Ming Dai went over, and Auntie Huang whispered, "My dear, although he is a lunatic, he is also a man. You have to pay attention to what you should pay attention to. You must not let him take advantage of you. You are still young and don't understand. Gossip can sometimes kill people. Once something happens, it will be too late. If you have any problems, go to Auntie. Even if you fight with the lunatic, Auntie can keep you. Do you understand?"

Although her words were powerful, when it came to fighting, Auntie Huang's voice trembled.

Ming Dai was somewhat moved: "Don't worry, auntie, I'll be careful, and I'm treating him to see if I can cure him."

Aunt Huang was very surprised. It seemed that Xiao Ming's medical skills were more than what she said.

The commune invited doctors from the city to see Zhou Sinian's condition, but they all said that there was no way to cure him.

Xiao Ming, the educated youth, is not the kind of person who talks nonsense. She says that if the law can be cured, then there is a way to cure it.

Auntie Huang's eyes brightened up when she saw the educated youth Xiao Ming. What a precious boy!

Unfortunately, she gave birth to a toad!

"Okay! If you can cure him, the whole commune will come to thank you with drums and gongs!"

Ming Dai laughed: "I'll try my best!"

The two laughed for a while, and Auntie Huang began to tell Mingdai some gossip in the village, such as how Ergouzi's wife loved to take advantage of others, and that if anyone passed by her door while picking vegetables, an onion would be pulled out!

The bald wife at the east end of the village didn't give a few cents less when she asked someone to deliver something to her. She is so shameless!

The chickens in Widow Zhang's family liked to visit other neighbors and always lost eggs, insisting that the chickens were taken by the stammering family next door. Widow Zhang blocked the stammering family's door and scolded him for a whole day, and she managed to get an egg back.

It also mentioned Luo Cheng's mother, Widow Luo.

"He is a strong-willed man. He raised five children and one of them even became a company commander. He is considered a promising one among us. But it is a pity that the widow Luo has a crooked heart. She likes the eldest and youngest sons and dislikes the most promising second son.

Luo Cheng was a foolishly filial son. He sent all his salary and allowance to his mother, and his widow Luo gave the money to his eldest and youngest sons, leaving him nothing.

We built new houses before the New Year. One for the eldest son, one for the third son, but there was no room for the second son.

She didn't think about how old her second son was. She didn't arrange a marriage for him because she hoped he would support the first and third sons for a few more years, which delayed the marriage."

Mingdai looked at her in admiration. Aunt Huang is simply the Internet's mouthpiece in modern times. Her analysis is so accurate.

Seeing the little admiration in Mingdai's eyes, Aunt Huang said proudly: "Humph, what Widow Luo did is the stupidest thing. Families with many sons are most afraid of not treating them equally. Now it seems that she is doing it for the good of the eldest and the third son, but she doesn't know that she is pushing the relationship between the three brothers further and further away. Unless the second son never gets married, otherwise, Widow Luo will be in trouble!"

Ming Dai unfailingly poured her another bowl of malt milk and listened to her talk more eagerly.

Aunt Huang took a sip, smacked her lips, and taught Ming Dai solemnly, "If you can avoid marrying someone like Luo Cheng, don't do it. He may look glamorous on the outside, but he's nothing at all.

He listens to his mother in everything, and sounds like a good and filial man, but who knows if you are his wife, that is like being in a bitter soup with no way out, with no place to complain about the grievances, and people can even accuse you of being unfilial! "

Ming Dai nodded vigorously. What he said was absolutely right! Isn't he a complete mama's boy?

She even wanted to applaud Huang Auntie Seal!

Aunt Huang taught her some very practical tips on how to identify whether the in-laws are good or not.

What about not choosing a family that favors boys over girls, like the one her second daughter-in-law's family has? You can marry her as a daughter-in-law, but you can't marry into the family. Giving birth to a child will torture you to death.

Don't just look at the man's own situation, but also look at his parents. If his father or the elders in the family beat their wives, such families should think carefully, because maybe this man will also beat his wife.

Don't look for a man who is smooth-talking, as he is fickle and prone to making trouble. Also, don't look for a man who can do nothing, as an honest man's outburst is the most frightening. Look for a responsible man who is willing to pay for you.

. . . . . .

Mingdai felt that every line was essential and quickly wrote them down.

Aunt Huang felt that she had satisfied her desire to be a lady and was very satisfied.

"I will teach you slowly in the future. If you have any questions, we can refer to each other. Just don't get dizzy."

Mingdai thought that he was interested and nodded solemnly.

Aunt Huang was very satisfied and turned to talk about what happened in the front yard.

"There is actually someone from your Youth League Center who didn't go to repair the reservoir this time. She's the young lady who came with you."

Ming Dai understood: "Fang Rou?"

Aunt Huang nodded, "Yes, that's her. What's the point of being round or square? Your uncle said she was older, but the city directly ordered her to teach in the commune primary school. She was just looking for trouble when she had nothing to do. She thought it was hard to go to the countryside, so why did she sign up to go there? Your uncle got criticized for abusing her."

Mingdai thought that it might be because the Fang family had not yet fallen, so Fang Rou could be arranged.

"Anyway, you should stay away from them in the future. It's better not to get involved in this smoky and foul-smelling house if you can."

Mingdai nodded obediently.

The two chatted for a while and both sides enjoyed themselves very much. Tiewa and Gouwa enjoyed the food and the show as well.

Aunt Huang looked at the weather and decided to go home to cook, and called her two grandsons to come home.

Goudan hadn't finished reading the book yet and was somewhat unwilling, whining. Aunt Huang raised her hand to beat him.

Mingdai hurried over, took a small basket, packed up the leftover fruits, put the book that Goudan hadn't finished reading in the basket, and also put the clam oil that she had just given to the two of them in.

By the way, she handed the towel she had used to wipe the two children's faces to Auntie Huang: "Auntie, this towel can be used by the two nephews. I have many at home, all of which were exchanged in the city."

Aunt Huang thought about her grandson's dirty face and snotty nose, and nodded in agreement. Then, when she heard that she had exchanged it in the city, she felt a little tempted.

"Ms. Xiao Ming, are these things easy to exchange in the city?"

Ming Dai nodded: "It's easy to exchange. There is a shortage of food in the city, but there is no shortage of these things. Every household distributes them during every festival. The towel factory distributes towels, and the glove factory distributes gloves. They are all very cheap."

Auntie Huang's eyes lit up: "If I ask you to change it, can you still do it?"

Ming Dai was waiting for her to say this: "Sure, I'm about to send something to my father's leader in the city, so we can exchange them together then."

Aunt Huang was very happy: "Oh! That's great. I'll go back and think about it and ask other people if they have anything to exchange. I'll tell you then. Miss Xiao Ming, let's agree in advance that you only help us exchange things, and we'll pay for the money and postage ourselves."

Ming Dai smiled and nodded: "Of course!"
