Everyone listened to what she said.
They all shook their heads repeatedly: "I don't want to. I want to wait until I go back to the city to find a partner."
Yang Laidi smiled and proudly took the things back into the house.
Yu Lili curled her lips: "Look at what she's so smug about. Doesn't she even look at her own face? I don't know what Zhao Weiguo likes about her?"
Zhang Hongmei nudged her arm: "Stop talking, it's none of our business if they're dating."
Yu Lili stopped talking.
The Huo family.
Li Xiangyun went to deliver food to Huo Jianguo. She made noodles with an egg in them.
"Jianguo, eat! Eat more so you'll feel better sooner."
Huo Jianguo smiled and said, "Thank you, Mother!"
"Oh, no need to thank me, I'm your mother."
"Your wife went back to her parents' house this morning, you know that! I don't know what her mother wanted with her. Your mother-in-law is really useless; you're so badly injured, and she didn't even come to check on you!"
Huo Jianguo ate with his head down, without saying a word.
He was also upset. Every year during the Spring Festival, he would send meat to their family, but now that he was injured, they not only asked Cuihong to go back, but didn't even bother to come and see him.
In the past few days, he noticed that Wang Cuihong often seemed lost in thought, and he didn't know what she was looking at.
He sighed and said, "Mother, don't say anymore. Her parents are just like that, opportunistic. They probably think I won't get better and are afraid of dragging their daughter down with them!"
Li Xiangyun: "Who knows? I might as well get a divorce. Wang Cuihong is a restless person. Who knows what her mother is calling her back for?"
Huo Jianguo: "Mom, even if it's a divorce, I can't bring it up. If she wants a divorce, she'll tell me. As long as she says it, I'll grant her wish."
Li Xiangyun tapped his forehead: "You! Sigh! Your business is none of my concern, you two figure it out yourselves!"
"She goes back to her parents' house every day, and even when she's home, she doesn't take care of you. What kind of daughter-in-law is that?"
Huo Jianguo stopped talking, and Li Xiangyun was at a loss. She wanted the two of them to divorce, but her eldest son kept disagreeing, so she had no choice.
After Huo Jianguo finished eating, he handed the bowl to Li Xiangyun.
"Alright, you can rest now! I'll have the second brother come and help you go to the toilet."
She carried the bowl to the door of Huo Jiandang's room and called out, "Second brother, go see if your eldest brother needs to go to the toilet. Go check on him."
"good!"
Huo Jiandang agreed and came out of the house.
Li Xiangyun glared at him: "What are you doing in the house in broad daylight? Your older brother has a leg problem, and I always have to call you to go. Hurry up and go. Today you only need to go once every two hours."
Even your older brother is too embarrassed to call you that, so you should be more considerate.
Huo Jiandang scratched his head sheepishly and went into Huo Jianguo's room.
Zhang Hongying's face was flushed inside the room; the two of them had just been doing *that*.
Her mother-in-law's shout startled her.
You're still not over it?
When Huo Jiandang comes back, we'll definitely give him a good beating!
Li Xiangyun carried the bowl to the kitchen.
Then we saw the courtyard gate open.
She walked towards the door and called out, "Who is it!"
"Mother, it's me!"
"Jianjun is back?"
Huo Jianjun was carrying a backpack and a lot of other things in his hands.
Li Xiangyun asked in surprise, "Why are you back? Aren't you going to work?"
Huo Jianjun hadn't seen his mother for several months; she passed away when the weather warmed up after the New Year.
He was gone for three months, and only came back for a few days at most.
He was also very excited.
"Mom, I'll be back after a few days' leave."
"Mom, I bought you a shirt and some malted milk powder."
"I heard that my older brother injured his leg. What happened?"
Li Xiangyun sighed, "Oh! Your older brother has suffered so much. You should put your things down and go see him!"
Huo Jianjun took out a shirt and a packet of malted milk powder from his bag and handed them to Li Xiangyun: "Mom, this is for you."
After saying that, he went back inside.
He took a bag of malted milk powder and a sponge cake to his older brother's room.
Huo Jianguo was also very happy to see him return.
"Jianjun, sit down."
Huo Jianjun sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "Brother, how did you get your leg injured? I heard you injured your leg, and since I had some time off, I came back to see you."
Huo Jianguo smiled and said, "I was bitten by a wild boar when I went up the mountain."
Huo Jianjun nodded.
"Brother, here's some malted milk powder and steamed egg cake for you. Eat them when you're hungry. You need to take good care of your injured leg."
Huo Jianguo nodded.
"You've finally come back, go and talk to your mother! I'm going to take a nap."
Huo Jianjun nodded.
He went back to his room.
Huo Jianshe was already waiting for him inside.
"Fourth Brother, did you bring me anything delicious when you came back?"
Huo Jianjun laughed and said, "Yes, I have some candy for you, and some sponge cake too. I've saved some for you."
"I'm going to find Third Brother, are you coming?"
Huo Jianshe stuffed a piece of sponge cake into his mouth, raised his hand, and shouted incoherently, "Go, go, together."
Huo Jianjun took some things and the two of them walked to the back.
Once inside, Huo Junshan asked in surprise, "Why are you back?"
Huo Jianjun laughed and said, "Third brother, third sister-in-law, I heard that eldest brother injured his leg. He's not busy these days, so I came back to visit. I'll be leaving in a few days."
Huo Junshan nodded and said to Huo Jianshe, "Go and bring over a few stools. It's cooler under this tree than inside."
"good!"
Huo Jianjun handed the items to Huo Junshan and said, "Third Brother, these are for my sister-in-law: steamed egg cake, malted milk powder, and milk powder."
Huo Junshan: "You finally managed to earn some money, but instead of saving it to get married, you've spent it all."
"Take it back to your mother! We have food here."
