Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Everything I heard from this child came true...
What Yu Changqing found strange was the question his mother-in-law asked. He didn't even know who the person who helped him was. "My father doesn't know either. I'll ask around when we get to the farm."
"Well, I will eventually know the name of my benefactor."
Wu Hehua was busy borrowing travel expenses for her son-in-law in the village. At this time, everyone was willing to give her money as long as they had money. Her son-in-law's father was originally a university professor. Now that he was rehabilitated, his salary alone could make up for several years of debt. Moreover, Yu Changqing was going to university and would be assigned a job after graduation. How could he not pay it back?
Everyone congratulated her: "Lotus, you finally got your reward after all the hardship."
Wu Hehua was so happy that she kept wiping her eyes.
The family was happily waiting for Yu Changqing to pick up his father and then come back to pick up Jiang Hongyu. The journey was long and they had been waiting for more than ten days, but there was no movement.
Gradually, some gossip that made people feel disgusted began to spread in the village.
"Yu Changqing's father is a university professor and is going back to his original unit. Yu Changqing was admitted to a university in the capital and is handsome. Can he still want a wife from the countryside?"
"That's right. Although Hongyu is pretty and capable, she is a country girl after all. There is a huge cultural gap between her and Yu Changqing. They will be worlds apart from each other in the future. There will be no complaints at home. It's a good thing for Yu Changqing, but it may not be a good thing for the Hehua family. Who knows, maybe this son-in-law will run away."
"That's right. If you insist on listening to his granddaughter's random suggestions and recruiting a live-in son-in-law, you'll end up becoming a laughing stock in the whole village."
The marriage between my aunt and uncle was arranged by Jiang Xiaoci, and she would never make mistakes when it came to matchmaking.
In the past few days, Jiang Xiaoci's voice could be heard everywhere in the village. If anyone was heard or seen mumbling behind her back, she would immediately rush over and say, "You are just envious of my aunt's good luck. You have to say a few hurtful words. When my uncle comes back, won't it hurt if you get slapped in the face?"
She went to the village entrance several times every day, thinking: It's been ten days, my uncle-in-law should be back by now.
Sure enough, three or four strangers came to the village entrance that day and asked Jiang Xiaoci: "Little sister, where is the home of Yu Zhiqing in your village?"
Because they were strangers, Jiang Xiaoci did not answer, but asked: "Who are you? Why are you asking about Yu Changqing's family? Don't you know that he has married a wife in Dahe Village?"
Yu Baosheng said: "We are his relatives and elders. He was admitted to a university in the capital, so how could he want a country girl? We came here to discuss compensation. The marriage must be divorced."
Jiang Xiaoci heard from his uncle that there were no reliable relatives in his hometown, only bad relatives who tried to stop him from returning to the city.
These must be bad relatives, she angrily scolded: "What kind of elders are you? My uncle will not divorce."
"Your child calls him uncle, so they must be that shameless family, right? Our Chang Qing is so outstanding, do you think you are worthy of him? Be smart and agree to divorce quickly, and you can get some compensation."
…
The sound of Jiang Xiaoci quarreling with someone had spread to the village. The village chief came over with his men and asked, "Xiaoci, who are these people? Why did you quarrel with them?"
Jiang Xiaoci asked the village chief to make the decision: "They insisted that they were my uncle's relatives and asked my aunt to divorce my uncle."
The village chief suddenly remembered that Yu Zhiqing was admitted because his relatives played tricks and wrote letters of denunciation. If his father had not been rehabilitated, he would not have been able to go through the re-enrollment process.
The village chief picked up the pole and said, "I know. You are the relatives who don't want Yu Changqing to return to the capital and wrote letters of denunciation, right? Knowing that Yu Changqing's father was rehabilitated, you want to find a new wife for his son. No way. If you don't set foot in Dahe Village today, I will no longer be the village chief."
…
As for Wu Hehua, some villagers have already come to her house to tell her about this.
Jiang Hongyu had heard too many rumors in the past few days and had been distracted. When she heard the news, she burst into tears.
"Mom, if Yu Changqing changes his mind, he can leave me if he wants. I will never pester him."
Wu Hehua quickly scolded, "What did I tell you? That's not what Changqing meant. If you want to draw a conclusion for him, at least wait until he comes back and ask him in person."
Gu Wenying knew that her sister-in-law was frightened, so she couldn't scold her at this time. She advised Jiang Hongyu to be rational: "Think about it, Changqing's family has no reliable relatives. They are all hoping for his bad luck. The ones who came here are definitely not good people. You should be united with Changqing and his wife, and don't be instigated by those bad guys."
"That's right, your sister-in-law is right."
Jiang Xiaoci was still confronting someone at the village entrance, so the whole family hurriedly ran towards the village entrance.
At this time, a tractor from the county town stopped at the entrance of the village with a "beep, beep, beep" sound. The tractor driver from the commune shouted, "Haha, what are you doing in the village? Half of the people in the village have come out. There's no need to be so grand to welcome Yu Zhiqing, right?"
When Jiang Xiaoci looked, she saw her uncle and an elegant, thin old man getting off the tractor.
Jiang Xiaoci ran over and said, "Hello, uncle. Hello, you are my uncle's father, right?"
Yu Yongtian had already heard from his son how Dahe Village had helped his son, especially this little girl, because it was she who had arranged his son's good marriage.
He nodded and smiled: "I am Changqing's father."
Jiang Xiaoci pointed at the people behind her and said, "Are they your relatives? They came here to ask my uncle and aunt to divorce. Do you think so too?"
Yu Yongtian looked at his half brother with hatred and told Jiang Xiaoci: "No, they are my enemies, not my relatives."
Jiang Xiaoci was now confident, so she ran back and told these annoying people, "You heard it, my uncle's family doesn't even consider you as relatives."
…
Yu Yongtian was not so magnanimous as to forgive his enemy. He walked forward, looked at Yu Baosheng and the evil-hearted people who assisted him, and said, "If you really have backbone, you will be evil to the end. Seeing that you can't stop me from getting redressed and Changqing from being admitted, the solution you came up with is to come here and ask Changqing to divorce and marry the wife you arranged for him. I have seen cruel and ruthless people, but I have never seen such vicious people with no bottom line as you."
Yu Baosheng originally wanted to act first and report later, to get the matter done, and then to use threats and inducements to make Yu Changqing and his son obey. Unfortunately, when they got the news, Yu Changqing had already received Yu Yongtian, so he hurried to Dahe Village first, but he didn't expect to run into them red-handed.
Yu Baosheng's heart was filled with thorns and resentment, and he made harsh remarks.
"Yu Yongtian, even if you return to your original school, so what? We are no longer the same as we were before. And Yu Changqing, don't think that being admitted to university is a big deal. In four years, when you graduate, you will be just a small clerk. It will not be easy to shake us. You two insist on holding a grudge, so let's wait and see."
The people who harmed others were so confident. The village chief commanded the villagers to beat these shameless guys far away.
Everyone surrounded Yu Changqing and his father and returned to Wu Hehua's home together.
Wu Hehua took out the best tea to entertain her in-laws and the village chief. Everyone was very curious. The village chief asked first, "His in-laws, Changqing said before that he didn't know who helped you get your name redressed. Don't you know now?"
Now that he knew it, Yu Changqing walked silently to Jiang Hongyu, his eyes full of gratitude.
Jiang Hongyu didn’t know what Yu Changqing was thinking now. He was a college student with a bright future after graduation, and his father had resumed his professorship. The gap between the two was too big.
Regardless of how many people were present at home, Yu Changqing held Jiang Hongyu's hand tightly and refused to let go, using his actions to show her that no matter what, they would not be separated.
Yu Yongtian was very pleased to see his son's actions. After several years of hardship, his son's character had not changed. Now everything is fine, thanks to the benefactor who helped him to rehabilitate, not to mention that the benefactor is a relative of his in-laws.
Yu Yongtian expressed his gratitude: "I was able to redress my wrongdoing thanks to the help of my in-laws."
Wu Hehua was confused. All she could think of was her eldest son's adoptive parents' home, but the two families had no contact with each other long ago.
Wu Hehua asked hurriedly, "My dear, you said my family would help, but we are just farmers, how can we help?"
Yu Yongtian explained with a smile: "My dear, this is your eldest son. He was promoted after his mission and is now a deputy director. He helped my family investigate the injustice. I am one of the first batch of people to be vindicated. Otherwise, Changqing's enrollment would have been delayed."
…
Is it from Jiang Weihai’s gang? Is he really not dead?
Wu Hehua was so surprised that her mind went blank for a moment. Then she repeatedly confirmed with Yu Yongtian: "My dear, are you sure it was Wei Hai who helped you? Did you see him in person? Are you sure?"
Yu Yongtian assured with a smile: "It was him. He came to our farm in person. There is no mistake. He said that he had some things to deal with and couldn't accompany me to wait for my son. He also said that he would be back as soon as he was done."
At this moment, Wu Hehua was really happy. She hugged Jiang Xiaoci and rubbed her head hard. Everything she heard from this child came true.
She was so happy that she kept repeating the same words over and over again: "You are such a lucky kid. Grandma is so lucky to have met you."
Jiang Xiaoci was also happy and said proudly, "I told you, Dad will definitely come back."
Everyone was congratulating Wu Hehua, and no one noticed that Gu Wenying was so shocked that he couldn't hold the tray in his hand. The two cups of hot tea he had just brewed fell to the ground with a clang, waking everyone up.
Everyone then realized that when Wu Hehua married Gu Wenying to bring good luck to her eldest son, she thought Jiang Weihai was no longer alive. But now he is still alive. Will he recognize this marriage when he comes back?
Jiang Hongyu and Yu Changqing were a couple who fell in love with each other and got married in a formal ceremony, but what about Gu Wenying's situation? No wonder she was so shocked, she was at a loss and didn't know what to do.
Wu Hehua reacted quickly. Judging from her eldest daughter-in-law's attitude, she was probably thinking of leaving.
Wu Hehua hurriedly pulled her daughter-in-law into the house to stop her from being embarrassed, and assured her: "Aying, I can't guarantee that Wei Hai will accept this marriage when he comes back, but this home will always be your home. Even if you can't be my daughter-in-law, you are still my biological daughter."
Jiang Hongyu had just gotten rid of her worries for a few days, but her sister-in-law was just like her a few days ago. She could understand this kind of confused mood the most, so she also went into the room to comfort her: "Sister-in-law, I know what kind of person my brother is. He will never be ungrateful. If he dares to leave my sister-in-law, I will no longer recognize him as my brother."
Gu Wenying's situation is completely different from Jiang Hongyu's. She agreed to the marriage in order to have a place to stay with her daughter. Now that Jiang Weihai is still alive, this marriage is naturally invalid.
Gu Wenying adjusted her mentality and said, "Mom, you don't have to say anything more. We decided on the marriage on our own and didn't ask Jiang Weihai. We thought he was dead before, but now he's back, so this marriage doesn't count."
How can that be possible? Wu Hehua firmly disagreed: "You advised Hongyu before, and now I'm going to advise you the same thing. Let's not rush and wait for Wei Hai to come back. Even if you don't care about yourself, you have to care about Xiaoci. You and your mother are both beautiful. Xiaoci is so young. I don't feel comfortable with you going to a place where you are unfamiliar with to make a living alone."
As she spoke, Wu Hehua began to cry.
Thinking of the day when she accompanied her sister-in-law to a blind date, and how that ugly man looked at Jiang Xiaoci unscrupulously, Gu Wenying felt pain in her heart. She nodded: "Okay, then let's wait until Jiang Weihai comes back."
