Ms. Huang feels that her temper has improved a lot now.
In the past, someone like Ge would have been beaten eight times over, or at least her husband would have been beaten eight times over.
I feel like these are all naive clowns who have never seen the world. They're all so big-headed that it's absurd to expect them to understand anything.
After packing up, I went to check the chicken coop again, and the eggs were still there.
After collecting the eggs, I picked a few green vegetables from the garden.
I simply cooked myself some noodles.
After her afternoon nap, there was another knock on the courtyard gate. It was none other than Zhao Qinshi.
"Sister-in-law is here. You've been going to a lot of trouble lately with all those furry animals you keep at home."
"If it weren't for your help taking care of him, he probably would have starved to death long ago."
Huang greeted Zhao Qinshi politely.
"Hey, what are you saying, sister-in-law? We're all really close relatives."
Besides, your family hasn't treated us badly by taking care of these furry creatures for you.
Every time they go to town, they bring this and that to our family.
How's business in town? Why did you suddenly come back?
Huang could not tell the truth,
"It's not that I never come back, I just miss home. I've got a lot more people at home these days, so I came back to visit."
Anything interesting happening in the village lately?
Zhao Qinshi slapped her thigh,
"Of course there are some interesting things to talk about."
Recently, Li the cripple at the entrance of the village and Liu the widow in the village have become very close, and their two families have started to discuss marriage, planning to hold the wedding before the end of this year.
Qiu Tong from my third uncle's family has been going on blind dates lately, it's quite a spectacle.
Originally, La Zihua planned to marry off a girl from her maternal village to her grandson.
As a result, this kid got stuck with Zhao Dahe's sister-in-law.
Mrs. Huang was very surprised.
"That shrewd Qiu Tong is just a monkey pretending to be someone else. Do you think he can be taken advantage of?"
Zhao Qinshi said,
"Hey, what's wrong with that? As long as a woman is willing to go all out, there's basically no man she can't get her hands on. Here's the thing..."
Our village has a river, and there's a bridge over it.
In our village, people always make arrangements with the people on the other side beforehand, deciding who goes first and who goes last.
So, Zhao Dahe's sister-in-law recently came to her sister's house.
They claimed it was to take care of my sister during her postpartum period, but in reality, it was just a disguised way of arranging a blind date in our village.
That's right, he's taken a liking to Qiu Tong.
Qiu Tong was unhappy that her brother-in-law had spoken to her through the middleman. This made the girl start having ulterior motives.
One day, Qiutong needed to cross the bridge to chop firewood on the opposite mountain.
I didn't see anyone on the other side before I went onto the bridge. When I got to the middle of the bridge, I saw a girl coming from the other side.
When Qiu Tong saw someone coming from the opposite direction, she called out to them to go back so that she could pass first.
Instead of going down, the girl accelerated and ran back onto the bridge.
Qiu Tong was terrified; the bridge was narrow and not very sturdy.
The woman was acting like a madwoman. Qiu Tong quickly turned around and went down the bridge, but the woman had already run to the middle of the bridge and pounced on Qiu Tong without saying a word.
Qiu Tong was ruthless; she simply jumped off the bridge, leaping off from a height of over a meter.
This woman was even more ruthless. When she saw Qiu Tong jump down, she jumped down too. As soon as she jumped off the bridge, she pounced on Qiu Tong, claiming that she was saving her.
This incident infuriated Qiu Tong. After finally shaking off that woman and climbing ashore, she went home and told La Zi Hua about it.
This was outrageous! La Zihua panicked, grabbed a feather duster, and headed straight for Zhao Dahe's house.
Upon arriving at Zhao Dahe's house, without saying a word, he gave Zhao Dahe a good beating.
Zhao Dahe's wife was terrified.
When Zhao Dahe's sister-in-law returned, La Zihua gave her another beating.
He smoked while criticizing the girl.
That woman is really ruthless. Even so, she still demanded that Qiu Tong marry her, saying that she had lost her virginity or she would die.
He was about to bang his head against the wall.
La Zihua didn't try to stop him at all, but the older sister insisted on stopping him, so Zhao Dahe had no choice but to try to appease her.
He begged La Zihua to marry that woman.
As Huang listened, her fingers unconsciously clenched.
"No, did Spicy Flower agree to marry a woman like that?"
Zhao Qin curled his lip in disdain.
"How could that be? If La Zi Hua agreed, she wouldn't be called La Zi Hua."
Seeing that the woman was still insistent, La Zihua declared that if the woman insisted on entering the Zhao family, she would become a concubine.
Concubines were sold; the moment they entered the house, they were sold to a brothel.
Instead of letting her have a good life, she insists on relying on others.
"Isn't she short of men? Then send her to a place where there's no shortage of men."
Huang nodded.
"That's how it should be done, just like that girl."
Even if Qiu Tong is a decent-looking young man, surely he's not good enough to make a girl sacrifice her reputation to pursue him?
Zhao Qinshi shook her head, equally puzzled.
"Who knows? But I heard that the girl has been a bit crazy at home since she was little."
If she wants something and can't get it, she'll definitely find a way to destroy it, either by going on a hunger strike or smashing things. Her whole family is afraid of her.
These rumors originated from her neighbor's house; given the close proximity, it's normal for her to hear more than others.
Huang nodded.
"What you're saying might not be impossible. Normal girls should at least know basic manners and a sense of shame."
This marriage is to unite two families, not to create enmity.
If this really happens, my third uncle's family will probably be in complete chaos.
"Yeah, of course. She's half-crazy, everything has to go her way."
Her family spoiled her, but when she got to her husband's family, with so many sisters-in-law, why should she be spoiled too? She's not exactly a beauty queen.
Zhao Qinshi said with emotion.
"Oh, such a brave girl, and very beautiful?" Huang was quite gossipy.
"Oh dear, how pretty can a country girl be?"
She wasn't tall and was quite thin. Her only advantage was her fair complexion. Her facial features weren't very clear, but she probably wasn't ugly.
"But as for how beautiful she is, I don't see it." Zhao Qinshi commented quite frankly.
"Hmm, okay, what's this called? Is it 'ugly people play with flowers'?"
Haha, if this girl weren't so half-crazy, I'd really admire her courage.
There's nothing wrong with finding a good boy; the mistake lies in using the wrong methods.
After all this, let alone finding a husband for her in Zhao Family Village, let alone back in her own village, she'll probably have a hard time finding one too."
Mr. Huang sighed with emotion.
Zhao Qinshi sighed.
"That's right. If you really like a young man, you should find a matchmaker to come and propose marriage."
Then they asked to meet. Who would ask their brother-in-law to pass on a message privately? That's just not right.
Furthermore, you can't resort to the "jumping off the bridge and refusing to leave" trick. Wouldn't that just make things even worse, making an already unpleasant situation spiral out of control?
