"Do we have money to buy two bicycles? You can figure it out if you use your brain." Aunt Lu tapped her daughter's forehead with her finger, wondering how she and Old Zhao, who had been smart all their lives, could have raised such a brainless daughter. Could it be... forget it, sigh.
"When you two saw her touching the bicycle, didn't you come out to stop her? If Sister Wan hadn't let it go and helped our family out, how much suspicion would the Zhao family have caused from the villagers?"
Sun Chunlian knew she was in the wrong, but she did not regret not stopping Zhao Simei. "Normally, she would not listen to us, so how could we stop her?"
Deng Xiunv said indifferently, "Mom, if it were you, you shouldn't have followed the trend and donated fifty. It would have been better to use the money to buy some clothes for Goudan."
Sun Chunlian reminded her dissatisfiedly, "Sister-in-law, you divided the family and the money, our family's money has nothing to do with you."
"That's all Gu Wanwan's fault. If she hadn't brainwashed my parents and beat up my son Goudan, would they have kicked us out?" Deng Xiunü got angry when the topic of dividing the family was mentioned. Recently, things had not been going well for the eldest wife. She had clearly returned to her parents' home with money, and even gave all the money from the division of the family to her parents' home to please her parents, so that her younger brother could marry a rich wife.
She originally thought that she was a great contributor to her parents' home and that she could enjoy her parents' love and care by staying there for a few days. However, as soon as her parents received the money, they sent her back to her husband's home on the grounds that the room was not big enough.
The eldest wife had no money to share with the family, and her husband could only work in the fields. How could he support the children with just the little work points he had? So she had to work in the fields with him.
Since the separation, the eldest wife's living conditions have become increasingly difficult. In the past, she had the help of her parents-in-law. Although she could not have fish and meat for every meal, at least she could eat her fill and occasionally have some meat. Now, only a few days after the separation, the eldest wife has started to eat coarse food.
"Mom and Dad, why don't we get together as a family? Look at how skinny Goudan has become from hunger. Don't you feel bad for your grandson? On the other hand, Gu Qingtang's two kids are getting fatter and fatter with Gu Wanwan. They must be the jinx who sucked away Goudan's good fortune."
Aunt Lu really looked down on Deng Xiunv, and even more so on her own eldest son. The eldest son couldn't stand up, and he deserved to be ruined by his wife. "Shut up, don't you like your mother's family? Why don't you go and ask your mother's family to take you in?"
Regarding the division of the family, Zhao Simei resolutely stood by her parents. "Sister-in-law must have given the money to her parents again. It's better to divide the family so that she won't have to steal our things to support her parents. My parents' money is for me as a dowry, so don't worry about it, sister-in-law!"
"But why should mom and dad listen to that Gu Zhiqing? Who is she? She relied on her beauty to look down on me as a waitress and almost got rid of my job at the state-owned hotel. Mom and dad, Gu Zhiqing bullied your daughter. You should arrange a job for her to carry manure tomorrow. I want to let her know the price of offending me."
"Do you know that she is hanging out with the Jinx mother and son? Yesterday, when I was leaving get off work and passed by Gu Qiuyan's mother-in-law's house, I ran into Gu Qiuyan complaining to Gu's mother-in-law. Did your parents want to cause trouble by not keeping a distance from Gu Zhiqing?"
How could Aunt Lu not know her daughter's character? She couldn't stand others being prettier than her and liked to compare herself with others. "Gu Qingtang is Wanjie's aunt. You are not allowed to cause trouble to Wanjie. She is the lifesaver of your father and third brother. If you repay kindness with enmity, be careful that I will not recognize you as my daughter."
This result was beyond Zhao Simei's expectation. It turned out that Gu Wanwan had saved the Zhao family. It turned out that Gu Wanwan had this kind of relationship with the Gu family. Since she couldn't make things difficult for Gu Wanwan, she didn't mind reminding Mrs. Gu and using Mrs. Gu to teach Gu Wanwan a lesson. "Mom and Dad, please buy me a bicycle as a birthday present. All my colleagues have one, but I don't. I seem to be out of place. With a bicycle, it will be very convenient for me to go to work and go back to the village."
After hearing this, Sun Chunlian protested, "Little sister, you haven't handed over your salary yet, how can you afford to spend the public treasury's money? We still have my second brother, third uncle, and Tiezhu at home, don't they deserve to use the money?"
Zhao Simei didn't even look at her, as if she didn't take her second sister-in-law seriously. "Do you have the right to speak in this family? You are an outsider at best. I am my parents' biological daughter!"
Aunt Lu felt that her daughter was spoiled. "If you want a bicycle, buy it with your own money. Your third brother earns more than you, but he didn't ask for a bicycle. He is not as pampered as you. As long as you save your salary and don't spend it recklessly, you can buy one in a few months."
Sun Chunlian instantly felt her whole body unblocked.
Zhao Simei was struck by lightning. Where did she get the spare money? She spent almost all her salary as soon as she got it, using it all to dress herself up. During the two months as a temporary worker, she did meet a lot of rich men and tried to date them, but once the other party took a fancy to her, they decisively broke up with her. If she didn't find someone to take over, she would no longer be able to hide this piece of meat in her belly.
"Mom and Dad, I like that educated youth Hu. Can you help me propose to him? I don't ask for much. I just want him to do three turns and one ring. I can't let others look down on me. After all, I am the daughter of the captain."
Zhao Guoming rejected her without hesitation, "Don't even think about it. Hu Zhiqing likes Zheng Zhiqing. Don't ruin their relationship!"
No one knows a girl better than her mother. Aunt Lu stared at her with suspicion, "Did you get into trouble outside? Our family is not a good match for Hu Zhiqing. You should give up. He doesn't know you well. How can you propose marriage right away? How is this different from forcing a marriage?"
Deng Xiunv herself was in a bad situation and wanted to disturb her husband's family. "Mother, what's wrong with my sister pursuing her own happiness? Besides, the man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried. It's hard to say whether Hu Zhiqing and Zheng Zhiqing can succeed in the future. Sister, I support you."
"Ever since our parents started calling Gu Wanwan and Zheng Shican sisters, you have fallen out of favor. I really feel sorry for you."
Zhao Simei loved to hear this. The more her parents objected, the more she wanted to stick with Hu Zhiqing. There were so many ways of forced marriage in the village, and there was always one that was suitable for Hu Zhiqing.
As for Gu Wanwan and Zheng Shican, she remembered them.
With Xiaobai looking after the house, the construction of the house went very smoothly. The roof was completed and the door was installed. The only things left to do were to enclose the yard and arrange the furniture.
Zheng Shican always felt uneasy, and asked while covering the wall, "Wanwan, my woman's intuition reminds me that Zhao Simei seems to be plotting something bad."
Gu Wanwan was building a stove in the house. "She wants to find a father for the baby in her belly, and she is begging Mr. and Mrs. Zhao to propose marriage to Zhiming."
This Zhao Simei is so interesting. In the future, she will be involved with the scumbag Zhou Tianfu.
Zheng Shican and Hu Zhiming were stunned when they heard this. "What?! Zhao Simei is too crazy. The captain and his wife are so honest, how could they raise such an unruly daughter?"
But they didn't know yet that the matchmaker Xu from the village was rushing to the new house of the educated youth's center and proposing to Gu Wanwan and Zheng Shican in a big way.
