Before I knew it, it started snowing heavily in the second half of the night. It is indeed winter and the temperature has dropped.
No wonder he felt so cold in the middle of the night. He gathered his clothes, not afraid of the cold, and went out to wash up with a teacup. He was the first one to get up early today, and there was no one in the yard yet. He hummed a little tune while brushing his teeth, feeling really good.
After brushing his teeth and washing up, he combed his hair meticulously in front of the mirror.
This marriage is a big deal after all.
After spreading the news of his marriage yesterday, Bai Fendou felt better. How could this not be good? He had been looking forward to it for a long time. Although, he did not receive many blessings, instead, several people showed expressions that were difficult to describe and hesitant to speak.
But Bai Fendou knew what they were thinking. They just felt that he had been cheated.
What's more, some people must think that Guan Guiling is not worthy of him. Thinking of this, Bai Fendou is even more proud. He said that his conditions are actually good. But Bai Fendou thinks he is not stupid. Although everyone thinks he was deceived by Guan Guiling, Bai Fendou thinks that he did not suffer any loss.
Although Guan Guiling is a divorced woman, she has a job, and she is eager to have a child of her own. Compared to having a wife, having a child is a big deal.
After all, he can't do anything with a wife, but with a child, he will have his own children, and someone will take care of him in the future. So Bai Fendou's expectations for children are greater than his expectations for a wife.
Now that Guan Guiling is like this, it's just perfect.
By then they would register their marriage, Guan Guiling would give birth to another child, and they would be a family of three, including two workers. How could life not be wonderful?
As for the children of Guan Guiling, Bai Fendou didn't care at all. He had no intention of raising those little brats. What did they have to do with him? It's not like they didn't have a biological father. When the time came, he would just throw those four little brats to their biological father.
He wanted to keep the child in Guiling's belly. He would watch the child grow up, and since he was born in wedlock, he would be his son.
Even if Guan Guiling wants to leave one day, the child is his! He will take care of him in his old age.
As for the fact that he has promised Guan Guiling to raise the other children as well, haha, once they register and get the marriage certificate, he doesn't believe that Guan Guiling can still win over him, as he is the head of the family.
Outsiders thought that he was deceived by Guan Guiling, but Bai Fendou felt that he was a smart man and he was the one who schemed.
The advantage is mine.
Moreover, he didn't spend much money on this date. He had spent too much on Wang Xiangxiu in the past and was deceived. This time he would not suffer any loss. He could get the free firewood, but if it cost money, he could forget about it.
"Hahahahaha~" He was indeed the smartest person in this yard. No one understood what he wanted.
He stood in the room laughing wildly. Zhuang Zhixi came out to wash up. Seeing him like this, he looked up at the sky silently and fetched water silently. Fortunately, it was daybreak. If it was earlier, it would still be dark and someone might think it was haunted.
After washing up, Zhuang Zhixi took another look at the Bai family, turned around and went home without saying anything. However, he also brought two coal briquettes home. The house was very cold, so he added another coal briquettes and washed his hands again.
He went back and forth twice, but Mingmei still hadn't woken up. Zhuang Zhixi looked at Mingmei condescendingly and saw that she was curled up in a ball while sleeping.
He laughed softly, then went out again with the chamber pot.
It was a coincidence that I met Bai Fendou again in the toilet. The weather suddenly turned cold and it snowed. There were fewer people on the street today. People usually lined up to empty the urinals, but today there were only twos and threes. Zhuang Zhixi was in line behind Bai Fendou.
Zhuang Zhixi looked at him and found that he was very different from usual. His hair looked like it had been licked by a cow.
He smiled vaguely and said, "Are you really planning to marry Guan Guiling?"
Bai Fendou raised his head proudly: "Of course."
"He has many children, and you will have a heavy burden." Zhuang Zhixi reminded.
Bai Fendou didn't take it seriously and said, "What's the big deal? I didn't say I would raise them all."
Zhuang Zhixi narrowed his eyes slightly, then smiled, but didn't say anything this time. It seems that after what happened before, Bai Fendou is not so stupid anymore.
Bai Fendou: "Why did you get up so early this morning?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "It's so cold so early in the morning, I can't sleep."
He said, "Besides, it was my grandfather's job to sweep the yard today, so I did it for him."
There were shifts in their compound, and Zhuang Zhixi took the initiative to take on the task of sweeping the yard for his grandpa. After all, that was Mingmei's grandpa, so old. Even if he was in good health, the younger generation living in the same compound should also do the work.
Bai Fendou: "If I can live like Old Man Lan when I'm old, I'll be satisfied."
Zhuang Zhixi: “…”
He looked at Bai Fendou with a speechless look, thinking that Bai Fendou was thinking too much.
It's him, it's difficult.
You know, Lan Sihai's salary is very high, and he has never heard the old man say how to calculate his salary when he is rehired, so he thinks it is not bad. If it is not good, he can't eat and drink all day. Since Lan Sihai moved in. His family Mingmei has not bought candy for a few times. Every time Lan Sihai sees Mingmei, he gives her a White Rabbit like coaxing a child.
Mingmei is a little tired of it, and she doesn't eat it every time, so she has saved up a jar.
Not to mention, there are others.
So it's really not easy for Bai Fendou to live the life of Lan Sihai.
However, Zhuang Zhixi did not spoil the fun. He did not have the time for that. He turned around and went back to the courtyard to get busy. When most people got up, Zhuang Zhixi finished sweeping the front yard and started sweeping the back yard.
Every household began to hear the sounds of getting up early and cooking.
Chen Yuan patted his pillow unhappily and said, "I'm so annoyed, so annoyed, so annoyed. They really have to get up so early every morning. Are they sick? I'm so unlucky to live in a place like this. What a lousy place! Ahhhh!"
He sat up, rubbing his temples, and looking at Tao Yuye who was also dazed, he said, "Why don't you go make breakfast? Do you want to starve me to death?"
Tao Yuye: "Okay, I'll make pancakes."
"I want to eat rice porridge." Chen Yuan made the request.
Tao Yuye was stunned for a moment and said, "We are out of rice at home."
The young couple came to live here, and it was the first time for both of them to be the head of the household. Although Tao Yuye was now an employee, she wanted to spend all her money on herself. Even if she didn't formally dress up, she had to save the money as private money, and she was reluctant to spend it at home.
Chen Yuan would never buy any needlework for his home.
Although she had twenty yuan for living expenses, Tao Yuye thought she could save as much as possible, and she still hoped to keep the money. So she went to her husband's house to get daily necessities and food. If she didn't take it, she would have nothing.
But even if they went to get it, they couldn't take too much at once, so Tao Yuye's family is out of rice now.
She said, "I'm going there after getting off work today..."
Bang! Chen Yuan threw the pillow at Tao Yuye and said, "How can you manage the household? Your husband needs to eat some rice, but you don't even have it? Where does your monthly salary go? My parents give you 20 yuan a month. With so much money, you don't buy anything for the family? Tao Yuye, why are you so stingy? Is there anyone who lives like you? You don't buy anything for your family, but you take your parents' money and go to my house to get it, right? You are really amazing! Tell me, do you want to keep the money to support your parents' family? Tell me! You are a traitor!"
His voice was so loud that everyone in the yard pricked up their ears.
Zhuang Zhixi, who was sweeping the floor, also slowed down his pace, his ears perked up. Chen Yuan and Tao Yuye were not familiar with the people in their compound, so no one knew what was going on in their family. But after Chen Yuan yelled like that, everyone was of course curious.
Tao Yuye was scolded by Chen Yuan, and she knew that she had gone a bit too far, but it was not wrong for her to do it for their small family.
She said: "I didn't give the money to my parents. I saved it for myself. I just wanted to save some money. If I have children in the future, I will have many places to spend money."
"You're still being stubborn, aren't you?" Chen Yuan was furious. He slapped Tao Yuye on the face and said, "I've spoiled you, haven't I? You still dare to talk back? You come from a small place, you're just ignorant, what the hell? Do you think I'm a fool? I can see that even if you're pregnant, you have to live in my house, and it doesn't cost any money. Why are you pretending to be innocent now? Besides, we've been married for a while, more than a month, and your belly hasn't moved at all. Are you an old hen that doesn't lay eggs?"
"I..." Tao Yuye looked up at Chen Yuan and said, "I'm not...don't say that."
Chen Yuan: "How can I say this if I don't? I don't care about your words. I want to eat lean meat porridge this morning. Go make it. And buy me a bowl of bean juice and two fried dough sticks."
Tao Yuye: "But we don't have any at home. We have no rice and no meat. Can we not eat this morning? I will definitely...ah when I come back in the evening!"
Chen Yuan slapped him again.
Even though everyone in their compound worked in the machinery factory and they were all considered to be hard workers, none of them beat their wives. Even Zhou Qun, who only used words to coax Jiang Lu, never beat or scolded her.
Aunt Zhou was bad, but she didn't beat her daughter-in-law. She just insulted her with words and used folk remedies to treat serious illnesses. She made Jiang Lu drink some random things, but she didn't really hit her. The same goes for the others.
Even though everyone enjoys beating each other up, beating your wife is really despised.
But this newcomer, although he was from a cadre family, a scholar, and looked gentle, was not ambiguous at all. He slapped Tao Yuye in the face and cursed: "If you don't have it, then find a way, instead of telling me that you don't have it and asking me to endure it. I didn't get treated like this when I was at home. Why am I living like this with you now?"
He felt the chill and suddenly asked, "Did you buy some coal briquettes?"
Tao Yuye: "Not yet..."
Chen Yuan was even more angry now. He shouted, "What kind of weather is this? Look at what day it is now? You haven't even bought some coal briquettes? Well, you are such a good wife. Do you still want to live like this?"
This time his fist landed on Tao Yuye's body, and Tao Yuye screamed in pain. She didn't expect Chen Yuan to start fighting as soon as he said so.
She dodged and said, "I was wrong, I was really wrong, don't hit me."
The people in the yard looked at each other in bewilderment. Zhuang Zhixi frowned and said, "What the hell are you doing?"
He raised his foot to stop her. Although he had a general impression of Tao Yuye, he couldn't stand such a thing. What kind of ability is it to bully a woman? It's really embarrassing for the men in their city.
He had just taken a few steps when he was grabbed by someone. Aunt Wang said, "I'll go for this kind of thing."
We are all young people, don’t get yourself into trouble.
It’s all in vain!
The old lady doesn't care.
Zhuang Zhixi: "Okay."
Although he said yes, he still followed behind Aunt Wang. Others also came over, and several people followed him.
When something like this happens, everyone comes out like a rabbit and quickly gathers together. Tao Yuye's voice is actually very low because she is afraid of being embarrassed, but Chen Yuan is not afraid. This man curses loudly. This attracts people.
Aunt Wang led the other aunts in and was immediately displeased when she saw Tao Yuye squatting in the corner.
She quickly stepped forward and said, "Chen Yuan, what are you doing! Men and women are equal now, why are you still beating your wife? This is such a bad character."
Chen Yuan frowned: "This is my home, what are you doing here? I beat my wife, what does it have to do with you? You all really think you are a big deal. What's the matter? This is my home, do you still want to act wild?"
Aunt Wang: "Even if it's your family, it doesn't mean it's right for you to beat your wife."
Chen Yuan didn't care: "What's wrong with beating her? She did something wrong and deserved to be beaten. Besides, who doesn't beat their wife?"
Zhuang Zhixi stepped forward and said seriously: "My family doesn't fight. I don't fight. My eldest brother doesn't fight. My father doesn't fight either."
Yang Lixin quickly expressed his opinion: "It's the same in my family."
Others stood up and said, "We don't beat our wives in my family either."
"Neither does my family."
Zhou Qun: "My family is even less like that. My wife is the head of the family."
No one beats their wife, but you do. Are you considered a human being?
Chen Yuan was squeezed by everyone and said quickly: "What does it have to do with me whether you beat me or not? My family needs to be taught a lesson if she does something wrong. If a young tree is not pruned and not straight, how can she know her mistakes if I don't teach her a lesson? Whose family doesn't buy coal at this time? Whose family needs to take 20 yuan from the parents-in-law every month for living expenses? Whose family doesn't buy anything but gets everything from the in-laws? I am doing well now. If it were you, you might not do better than me. Who are you going here to teach a lesson now? My parents don't care about me, so who are you? Get out of here! What a bunch of crap."
He said bluntly: "I really gave you face, but you still want to come to my house to teach me a lesson. Don't you know who you are?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Ah, his family is really well off. He can even get another 20 yuan from his husband's family."
“That’s right.”
"But even so, you can't hit anyone."
"What if it's broken? It'll bring shame to our compound?"
Aunt Wang: "If you're like this, I'll go to the factory, the Women's Federation, and the street office. We can't tolerate people like you in our compound."
Chen Yuan mocked: "Your big compound? Don't talk about how great your compound is. Everyone knows that your compound is full of rotten fish and shrimps? Look at you..."
His eyes fell on everyone, and the first person he saw was Bai Fendou.
Who made Bai Fendou pack so differently today? Plus, this guy had fought with him on the day he moved, so he didn't like this guy and immediately attacked Bai Fendou first.
"Hey, a eunuch, how come he is still dressed like a human being? Why? He doesn't think that he will have a wife just because he gets married? He doesn't even know who the wife is for. He is such a cuckold. It's ridiculous."
When Bai Fendou saw him staring at him and saying these things, he instantly became furious. What he hated most in his life was someone saying such things.
He can say anything, but there are two words that are taboo to him, one is "eunuch" and the other is "green hat".
He couldn't get away from it, so when he heard Chen Yuan say this, he rushed over with a roar, as fast as a rhinoceros, and kicked Chen Yuan directly on the body, and Chen Yuan fell on the bed with a bang.
"How dare you hit me!"
"Why wouldn't I dare to hit you? Don't think that I'm afraid of you just because your father is the leader of the factory! If you dare to say anything bad about me, I'll beat you to death!"
Bai Fendou had fought a lot, and he had a lot more experience than others. He was no match for Chen Yuan in fighting. He kicked him over, rushed over, grabbed his hair, and snapped!
Slap in the face!
Bai Fendou just can't stand such pretty boys. What he likes most is to slap them in the face and see if they can still show off!
"Fuck! Hurry up and get this mad dog away! Damn, this is really..."
Bai Fendou didn't care what the man said and just started scratching him!
Look at him! Chen Yuan: "Fuck, if you want to fight, just fight. Can you not be like a woman, pulling hair and scratching people? If you have the guts, let's fight openly. You are really a eunuch, and even fighting is so disgusting."
It must be said that Chen Yuan is also a ruthless person. Even if this guy has an overwhelming advantage and is beaten up, he still insists on being tough. He is really amazing.
It can be said that everything in his body is soft except his mouth.
"Just because you fight so vigorously, you're not a man, you stinking eunuch!"
"You are such a mean person for beating a woman."
Tao Yuye also reacted at this time and shouted: "Stop fighting, both of you. Don't fight for me!"
Zhuang Zhixi looked at Tao Yuye strangely, thinking that this person was also quite narcissistic. How could you tell that she was fighting for him? Bai Fendou clearly wanted to fight because he was insulted. Everyone knew that Bai Fendou could not stand the word eunuch.
This kind of thing, if you are not like that, I would just say it as a joke and you wouldn't be that angry.
But the problem is, Bai Fendou really did mean it, so these words would really hit him right in the face.
Didn’t you see that Zhou Qun was also glaring at him?
The more truthful the words are, the less likely you are to joke about them.
It didn't take long for Chen Yuan to be torn into potato shreds by Bai Fendou. He howled, spitting foul language, and fought back. But he couldn't beat people the way Bai Fendou did. He only knew how to punch.
Bai Fendou was experienced in fighting. He dodged quickly and extended his claws again.
Seeing her man in such a miserable state, Tao Yuye cried out, "Bai Fendou, please let me go! You can't fight."
She shouted again: "Hurry up and stop them."
Zhuang Zhixi seemed to react all of a sudden, and hurried forward to pull him, but he couldn't pull Bai Fendou. Moreover, he didn't dare to move aside, for fear of being attacked by Bai Fendou, so he could only pull him: "Brother Fendou, calm down."
Anxious look, but little energy.
Bai Fendou swung his sword and Zhuang Zhixi was thrown several steps away.
"Oh my god, Xiaozhuang, be careful. You are a cultured person, how can you fight for nothing?"
Zhao Guihua, who was standing at the back, raised her eyebrows. She really didn't believe it at all. Her son didn't do heavy work, but he couldn't even hold Bai Fendou. At this time, Zhou Qun also rushed forward to hold him back. As soon as he started, he knew that Zhuang Zhixi didn't use any strength at all, so of course he... wouldn't use any strength either.
Damn it, this guy keeps calling eunuch. Who is he scolding?
Although this person was scolding Bai Fendou, Zhou Qun was also scolded. He was the innocent victim. Although he was not as useless as Bai Fendou who didn't even have a wife and children, he was usually quite open-minded.
But the man's insults also affected him.
Which man can bear this? Anyway, he can't bear it, so Zhou Qun also pretends to be attentive, but in fact he is quite careless. Neither man can hold Bai Fendou back.
Everyone sighed: "Bai Fendou goes crazy when he fights. Look at his energy."
"Who says it's not?"
"That's it. He hasn't even used any ruthless moves. He hasn't even used his ultimate move yet?"
"Oh yes, he does have it. He hasn't used the dragon claw hand yet. It has cost many men their lives."
"Zhou Qun, Yu Baoshan is dead, and so is Deputy Director Cai. Three, three..."
"I wonder if Chen Yuan will be the fourth one..."
Everyone was discussing as if no one was around. When Chen Yuan heard about it, his face changed.
How could he forget that Bai Fendou was indeed the one who did it?
He didn't care about protecting his face at this time, and directly covered his important parts. A man can be killed but not humiliated. No matter how they fight, he has to be on guard against this, because he is the only child in their family. Tao Yuye was also afraid at this time. She was really afraid that Bai Fendou would really ruin her man, and then she would be finished.
Tao Yuye looked at Bai Fendou like this and shouted: "Bai Fendou, let go, let go!"
Bai Fendou: "Get lost!"
Seeing that she couldn't pull it back, and her man was already scratched and bleeding, she was even more determined to cover that spot. Tao Yuye was very worried, and looked around, and finally saw a big vase, which was the decoration of his house.
She picked it up without hesitation and threw it directly at Bai Fendou.
"Don't..."
At the critical moment, Zhuang Zhixi tried to stop it, but failed. The big vase still fell on Bai Fendou's head. Bai Fendou turned around and saw Tao Yuye's panicked face. He cursed: "You woman don't know what's good for you... uh..."
With a bang, the man fell down and hit Chen Yuan directly, and fainted.
Chen Yuan: “Ah!”
He was about to get up, but Bai Fendou hit him and twisted his waist.
“Help…”
At this time, Chen Yuan finally gave in.
"Oh my god, what's going on..."
"Hurry up and find a way to get her to the hospital."
"Why is he bleeding again? The old man fell and injured his head and died from excessive blood loss..."
"Tao Yuye, hurry up..."
"Go borrow a cart quickly. They both need to be taken to the hospital."
"Why are you borrowing a cart again..."
"Hurry up, if we wait any longer and someone dies from excessive blood loss, will we still be able to hold a funeral in our compound?"
"That's true, hurry up."
Everyone was talking at once, but they moved quickly, one by one, and quickly lifted the person onto the cart. Soon, everyone was preparing to go to the hospital again. Chen Yuan just sprained his waist and did not faint. He shouted, "I don't want to lie on the cart with Bai Fendou!"
If he lay on the cart with Bai Fendou and Bai Fendou died in the end, he would be unlucky for the rest of his life.
Even if he didn't die, would he still have any face? But at this time, does anyone care about what he is saying?
No.
Everyone is afraid of death, saving lives is the first priority, who cares what he says, if this man didn't beat his wife early in the morning. How could this happen? Besides, Bai Fendou is just watching the fun, you call him a eunuch, who else should he beat if not you?
Although Bai Fendou often gets into trouble, he is quite innocent in today's incident.
Everyone went to the hospital in a mighty manner, hoping that nothing else would happen.
Such a large group of people, parading through the streets, attracted countless onlookers!
Hmm, he looks familiar, it's him again!
What a waste of effort! Zhuang Zhixi didn't go, because he had important work to do at work today and couldn't take leave. But one more or one less wouldn't make a difference.
Zhao Guihua went with them. Liang Meifen really wanted to go, but things were different now. She had a job now, so she couldn't miss work easily. It was all about money. If she had to affect her work because of other people's affairs, she couldn't do it. They still owed money to their mother-in-law.
Mingmei is in her advanced stage of pregnancy and is working a little harder than before. She didn't come out to watch the fun this morning. Zhuang Zhixi sent her to work, and as soon as he went out, he saw Jin Lai tiptoeing to the junction of the front yard and the back yard.
Just looking at his shifty look, there's no need to say more, you can tell at a glance that he's up to no good.
Zhuang Zhixi was just about to call for help when he saw the kid suddenly exerted his strength, hop forward a few steps on one foot, and suddenly ran into Chen Yuan and Tao Yuye's house.
In order to steal things, he was physically disabled but mentally strong.
Zhuang Zhixi: “…”
He pursed his lips and said, "Let's go, I'll take you first."
Mingmei also saw it. When she got out of the door, Mingmei said, "Why did this kid steal things again? I thought he would change for the better."
Zhuang Zhixi: "At this age, he hasn't received a deeper education. I don't think he can change."
Mingmei: "Why didn't you call for help to stop it?"
Zhuang Zhixi raised his eyebrows: "What about you? Why don't you call for help?"
Both of them shrugged. There was really no way to deal with this.
Jin Lai is not fully recovered yet. He walks with a hop or a jump, or he has to hold on to the wall. It will be difficult to deal with him if he is caught now. You can't send a wounded person to a juvenile detention center. Besides, if he gets bumped or bruised, it will be even worse if he is blackmailed.
So Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei decided to ignore it.
"Tell me about this kid, how come he can't change his bad habits!"
“I can’t help it.”
Zhuang Zhixi didn't think he was a kind and selfless person. Although they lived in the same courtyard, he didn't want to get involved in these things. He just took care of his own family. As for other people's families? Whoever he loved was fine.
As for Chen Yuan and his wife, they don't look like they can be trusted.
Zhuang Zhixi didn't want to care about it at all, and although Mingmei was a bit jealous, she really spent a lot of energy since she got pregnant, so she couldn't care about it. Besides, she also agreed with Zhuang Zhixi's words.
Su Jinlai's affairs are really hard to deal with.
Zhuang Zhixi sent Mingmei to work. At this time, Mingmei suddenly realized and said, "Ah, that's not right. Didn't Bai Fendou register for marriage today? He fainted now. It's not okay, right?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "Oh, right! Oh my god, won't this affect our marriage?"
Isn't Bai Fendou's marriage too full of twists and turns? Mingmei blinked and said, "How about this, Guan Guiling will definitely come to work today, and she will also come to get a letter of introduction to prepare for the marriage. When the time comes, I will tell her and ask her to go directly to the hospital."
"Okay, you'll have to bear with it, wife. But be careful, you're pregnant, we'll just notify her, don't rush to the hospital with us, understand?"
Mingmei smiled: "I know."
She said coquettishly: "Am I stupid? I don't care about that."
She just didn't understand why in Zhuang Zhixi's eyes, she was just a little baby who couldn't take care of herself and didn't understand the ways of the world. He had to remind her again and again about everything, just like an old nanny.
Especially recently, it has become more obvious.
However, Mingmei still smiled, because this person really cared about her.
It always feels good to be cared for.
Mingmei went upstairs. The older sister in the office saw her and said with a smile, "You have a really good man. He never neglects a day. He picks her up and drops her off every day. He's really considerate."
They saw it from the window and the two talked for a while.
Mingmei smiled and said, "We are husband and wife. I have been so tired during my pregnancy. If he doesn't treat me better, he would be a bad person. Besides, if he doesn't take good care of me, I will make trouble for him after I give birth to the baby. I am very capable."
She shook her little fist deliberately.
Everyone laughed. Even though they all knew Mingmei was joking, they still couldn't help but smile meaningfully because Mingmei was really amazing.
Some people also laughed and joked: "How can you bear to do that? Your man is so handsome. If it were me, I would not be willing to teach him a lesson."
"Your family is better. My family was still doing housework when I was pregnant. By the way, how is your family? I heard that your mother-in-law is quite fierce."
Thanks to the fact that there are so many gossips about their compound, other people have become famous as well. We can't name them, but we all know that the old ladies in their compound are all very fierce and powerful.
Mingmei thought for a moment and said, "My mother-in-law is quite fierce, but she is very nice to me."
She said delicately and softly: "I'm so nice, there's no one who doesn't like me, right?"
"Yo yo yo, you are really good at bragging."
"No matter how much the mother-in-law likes her son, she can't possibly like her daughter-in-law."
Mingmei: "You still don't believe it. Look, the hawthorn cake I ate a few days ago was made by my mother-in-law. The same is true for the chestnut cake I ate."
When Zhao Guihua went up the mountain in autumn, she picked some hawthorns. They were sour and astringent and not tasty, so she boiled them and made hawthorn cake. Although hawthorns are free, the cost of making hawthorn cake is not low, as sugar is added to it.
Zhao Guihua used up all the candy she bought on the black market.
She made a lot of hawthorn cakes, which were sour and sweet and loved by the whole family. But basically no one else could eat them, except Mingmei, only Hutou and Xiaoyanzi could eat them, and the others...get out of here, no way! What kind of snacks can an adult eat?
These things are naturally for children and pregnant women.
There's nothing we can do. If we had enough food and clothing, then everything would be fine. But these days we are short of food, so we can only focus on pregnant women and children first.
"Mingmei, your mother-in-law is quite skilled. She can do all this."
"Isn't it because you are pregnant?"
Mingmei didn't feel like she was being sabotaged, and said with a smile, "Obviously it's because I'm very good at flattering my mother-in-law."
"Pfft." Everyone laughed.
Although there are always rivers and lakes wherever there are people, Mingmei is still quite popular in the bus station.
She is not the kind of person who is competitive in the workplace. Because her family is well-off, she will not take advantage of others. In addition, she has some martial arts skills. Although she is now sealed, no one is provocative. '
Of course, it’s also because many people have watched her grow up.
Everyone laughed and said, "You are good at talking and flattering. Can you flatter people to please them?"
Mingmei nodded: "Yes, my mother-in-law says she dislikes me, but she always thinks of me first no matter what she does. But it's not surprising, you know, I've always been liked by the elders because I'm pretty and sweet."
Oh~ The more you talk, the more you brag. I can’t stand it. I really can’t stand it.
Mingmei: "Oh, by the way, I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go to the HR department."
"how?"
Mingmei: "I have to tell Guan Guiling a message..."
It was a coincidence that Mingmei came to the HR department and happened to see Guan Guiling walking out with a letter of introduction. Mingmei: "Guan Guiling."
The two were not in the same department, and Guan Guiling was a late successor, so they were not familiar with each other. They just nodded when they met. Mingmei suddenly stopped Guan Guiling, which surprised her.
"What's the matter?"
Mingmei nodded: "I live in Xinghua, in the same courtyard as Comrade Bai Fendou."
Guan Guiling nodded, she knew this.
After all, who doesn’t know Mingmei at the bus station?
"This morning, Bai Fendou had an argument with someone and got hit on the head. He passed out and was sent to the hospital. I came here to tell you."
Don't just go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and wait there like an idiot.
Guan Guiling: “Ah!”
She was dumbfounded.
Why did they fight again out of the blue? Huh? Why did she use the word "again"? It's obvious that this person is not good.
But she still said, "Thank you, I'll go to the hospital right away."
Mingmei: "You're welcome."
She returned to the office. Guan Guiling walked very fast. She quickly asked for leave and went to the hospital. But on the way, she touched the letter of introduction in her pocket and hesitated a little. She went to Bai Fendou in order to have a long-term meal ticket.
If she said she liked Bai Fendou, it was not at all.
As for the fact that she liked Bai Fendou when she was in school, isn't that a lie? She is not blind, why would she like Bai Fendou? But who made her have a heavy family burden?
The man has to take medicine all year round. There are four children in the family. Unexpectedly, she got pregnant again. If the baby is born, she will have five children.
Even if she only earned 30 yuan, her family of seven would still be below the poverty line in this city. Even if she could get the minimum living allowance from the street, her husband would do some paper box pasting work at home. But how much could he earn?
In short, life was difficult.
It was also at this time that she heard about Bai Fendou.
This man was truly a legendary figure, truly known to everyone. After hearing about this man, she came up with a good idea. The couple discussed it all night and felt that it was quite feasible.
The two decided to divorce, and after they divorced, she could find Bai Fighten.
Her man actually had nothing to worry about, after all, everyone knew that Bai Fendou was defeated in a blink of an eye.
Oh, what a coincidence! The one who smashed him was not someone else, but someone from the bus station. It was Jiang Baohong, who is now disliked by everyone.
Guan Guiling thought that she could take the initiative to attack Bai Fendou. Since he was not good enough, she could help his family. Even if she married Bai Fendou, it would not matter. He was not a man, and she could still find her ex-husband to be gentle with.
She didn't think Bai Fendou could escape from her grasp.
He has been helping his neighbor Wang Xiangxiu for so many years, taking care of her children, so he can naturally take care of her children. Even if he can't, she can slowly control him. As long as they are married, everything is still in her hands?
She and Bai Fendou both felt that they would be the ones to take the initiative, but they didn't know who would win in the end.
But at this time, she felt very uneasy and unhappy.
Why is this Bai Fendou causing trouble again?
If he kept getting into trouble like this, she really found it hard to believe that he could do the important task of "grouping the gang". If he got injured every other day, then the money would definitely be spent like water. She just wanted to find someone to take care of their whole family - including her husband.
I don't really want to remarry.
If she finds someone unreliable, she will hesitate.
She wants to trap others, but she cannot be trapped herself.
Guan Guiling walked quickly, and this was what she was thinking. Bai Fendou was so impulsive and aggressive that he was not up to the task.
Guan Guiling divorced in order to trap Bai Fendou, which no one expected. Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei also thought that Guan Guiling deliberately got pregnant to trap Bai Fendou. In fact, they were wrong.
Guan Guiling was indeed pregnant from the beginning, but the divorce was a plan they made later.
Of course, as outsiders, it doesn’t matter what Zhuang Zhixi and the others guess.
She was thinking, Bai Fendou won't die all of a sudden, right? If he really died, she would lose out. At least she would get a marriage certificate, and then she could smoothly take over Bai Fendou's house.
He wanted Bai Fendou to help him, and he also wanted Bai Fendou's house.
By then, when he grows up and gets married, he will have a place to live.
As for Bai Fendou? By that time, he must be too old to do anything, so he should just be kicked out.
Guan Guiling had a very good idea and rushed to the hospital, hoping that even if she died, she would not die immediately.
But as soon as I arrived at the hospital, I heard shouting and cursing.
Guan Guiling: “…”
She said loudly: "Please make way, please make way, let me see Bai Fendou."
She was very reluctant to see her struggle go in vain.
Bai Fendou shouted: "Gui Ling, I'm here."
Full of energy. Guan Guiling: "..."
When she came over, she saw that Bai Fendou was lying on the bed with a heavy gauze wrapped around his head. The man on the other bed who had quarreled with him was very young, but he looked horrible. Not only was his face red and swollen, but there were also many places that were scratched. He was lying on the bed opposite Bai Fendou and was having sex with Bai Fendou's girlfriend.
They greeted each other's ancestors crazily.
Guan Guiling: "What happened?"
The young nurse was already used to it, how could she not be used to it? Bai Fendou was a frequent visitor to them.
At that time, no one had heard of the membership application, otherwise the young nurse would definitely ask Bai Fendou to apply for one. He was truly a frequent customer among frequent customers.
"Why is this happening?" Guan Guiling stepped forward and said, "Do you know how worried I am about you?"
The neighbors who came to the hospital with Bai Fendou all had confused looks on their faces.
No one has ever seen Guan Guiling, so of course they want to take a good look at her.
Well, how should I put it?
She looks like Wang Xiangxiu.
It’s not about the facial features being similar, but the overall charm being similar.
I don’t know whether Bai Fendou still likes Wang Xiangxiu or he just likes this one.
Probably... the latter? After all, now that Wang Xiangxiu is showing goodwill to Bai Fendou, Bai Fendou will not pay any attention to Wang Xiangxiu.
Guan Guiling: "What's going on?"
Bai Fendou: "This bastard is a bad-mouthed bastard."
"You eunuch, you..."
Blah blah, the two sides started cursing each other again.
"Grandson, let's not argue with this bastard. What kind of a jerk is this? Look at his ugly appearance. He deserves to be killed." An old lady shouted. This was Chen Yuan's grandmother.
Although the old lady was protecting Chen Yuan, Chen Yuan didn't even look at her.
"Just shut up. You can't hit anyone, and you can't curse anyone. Go away."
This old man, if this old man didn't live in their house, would he have to live in a compound just to get a housing unit from the machinery factory? It's really annoying.
Seeing Chen Yuan's bad attitude, Zhao Guihua felt deeply saddened that this family was really bad at educating their children.
But many families are like this, as long as they have an only child, they are afraid that the child will melt in their mouths, but they don't know how to educate him, so they sent him to the hospital. Both sides quickly dealt with it and then arranged for him to be admitted to the hospital.
Fortunately, Bai Fendou was not like his father this time. He suffered a concussion and woke up after lying down for a while.
As for Chen Yuan, he was scratched into potato shreds, and then he sprained his waist and had to be hospitalized.
Because Tao Yuye was also injured, the doctor thought they were a couple fighting. Later, he found out that Chen Yuan was scratched by Bai Fendou and remained silent for a long time.
It's rare to see men fighting like this.
But it's also good.
After all, they knew that this old man Bai Fendou was best at crippling men. It was God's mercy that Chen Yuan had not been crippled. He should be thankful that he could still be a man intact.
Bai Fendou has few relatives left, but many people came to Chen Yuan's house.
But Bai Fendou was not afraid at all. Chen Yuan cursed first, so what was wrong with him fighting back? Not to mention that Tao Yuye also injured him. In short, Bai Fendou stretched his neck and shouted, echoing throughout the hospital: "Director Chen, your son called me a eunuch, I am a man if I don't hit him? Your daughter-in-law hit me with such a big vase and almost killed me. Whose fault do you think it is? I tell you, don't think that you can deal with me just because you are the logistics director and I am a toilet cleaner! If you dare to take revenge, I will report you! Don't even think about it!"
He has a loud voice, and it is precisely because of this that Chen Yuan's parents dare not act rashly or retaliate directly.
After all, they were all from the same factory, and Director Chen from the logistics department knew who Bai Fendou was. He was a real reckless man. If you really provoke him, you will probably have a lot of trouble later. This man who is barefoot is not afraid of those who wear shoes.
He has few relatives and is unable to judge the situation.
This kind of person really should not be easily provoked.
It was for this reason that Director Chen left first after paying all the medical expenses for both parties.
Chen Yuan's mother had the same idea, so the old man and old woman, Chen Yuan's grandparents, stayed at the scene. The two sides started a war of words, which made the neighbors dumbfounded. That is to say, their compound could not be peaceful for too long.
If this place remains quiet for long enough, it won't feel like their compound anymore.
Zhao Guihua looked for a while and was ready to leave, but she didn't expect Guan Guiling to arrive. Guan Guiling heard what had happened. Although the husband had his own reasons, she was still very annoyed.
Bai Fendou couldn't hit a woman, right? If he did, she would have to reconsider their relationship.
Although he had a letter of introduction, they were not married yet. Moreover, Bai Fendou had offended his superiors. How could he not be harassed?
For a moment, she was a little embarrassed. Seeing Bai Fendou still smug, she finally understood why this person was transferred from the Security Department to the Logistics Department to clean the toilet. That was stupid! She had never seen such a stupid ass before.
Big ass.
She smiled softly and said, "Fendou, please stop arguing. We are neighbors and colleagues. We will see each other every day. It's really ugly for you to quarrel like this."
Bai Fendou disagreed: "What's the big deal? He is not a good guy. I scolded him a few times, that's to get rid of harm for the people, I also want to beat him. What the hell, you don't know, this guy looks like a human being, beating his wife at home."
Chen Yuan looked at Tao Yuye coldly, and Tao Yuye immediately said, "Bai Fendou, don't talk nonsense, my Chen Yuan didn't hit me."
"Tsk tsk, you are really good at pretending. Do you really need to do this? Look at that face... it's really hilarious."
Tao Yuye: "I was not sleeping well and fell to the ground, landing on my face. Please don't say such things anymore. I know you have feelings for me, but Chen Yuan treats me very well. Don't tarnish his reputation..."
Chen Yuan laughed triumphantly.
Guan Guiling looked at Bai Fendou and said in a cold voice: "Are you interested in her?"
Bai Fendou immediately shouted: "How is that possible!"
It existed before, but not now!
He said loudly, "She is so self-indulgent that she thinks everyone likes her. I only hit her because Chen Yuan scolded me. If it was just because Chen Yuan hit her, I wouldn't care. This woman is sick. She doesn't know whether it's good or bad when others help her."
He still holds a grudge about what happened on moving day.
My kindness has been taken for granted.
Tao Yuye didn't expect Bai Fendou to be so disrespectful. She felt that since she had said that, Bai Fendou would have to agree with her, right? After all, he had pursued her before, so how could he watch her in such a difficult situation? She bit her lip and said, "Bai Fendou, you bastard! Didn't you pursue me before?"
Bai Fendou said calmly: "So what if I pursued you? You were not married at that time, and now you are married, why should I still be interested in you? Look at your character, I think you are not even one ten-thousandth as good as Guan Guiling. I am not without a partner myself, why should I protect you? Who do you think you are?"
Guan Guiling raised the corner of her mouth.
"How can you talk like that?" Tao Yuye was furious: "You eunuch!"
Bai Fendou shouted: "You bitch, you deserve to be beaten by a man. Just wait and see if anyone will care about you in the future! What a piece of shit! Don't think you can be a fool for me. You were flirting with other girls before we got married. You even coaxed us to spend money on you. Now you think you are so great..."
"I'll beat you to death!"
"Come on, I haven't blamed you for hitting me yet..."
The two sides broke out in war again. Zhao Guihua looked at it and really felt that Bai Fendou was going through a hundred events. He was also an impulsive Bai Fendou. This person is really hard to change.
While there was all the commotion going on here, no one knew that Chen Yuan and Tao Yuye's home had been robbed.
This happened in the morning. Jin Lai sneaked into Chen Yuan's house while everyone else was out. However, he was very dissatisfied. Although there was flour here, there was nothing cooked.
He immediately went back into the inner room, intending to steal money, but the cabinets were all locked.
He was a kid and couldn't open it, so he turned over the unlocked cabinet and found a pack of peach cakes and a can of peaches. He didn't care about them and took them away immediately.
But when he left, he was not satisfied.
Really dissatisfied, he felt that this one should have more.
I didn't expect that, although donkey dung eggs look shiny on the surface, there are actually not many delicious ones at home.
He secretly went home with his things, thinking he had done it perfectly. At this time, Tonglai had already gone to school. Yinlai was lying on the bed, watching his brother sneak out and sneak back, and said, "Brother, don't steal anymore."
Yinlai was really scared after almost dying this time.
The pain in his body reminded him not to do bad things, let alone steal things.
Moreover, they almost went to juvenile detention. If things hadn't gone wrong later, they would have definitely been held accountable. They had barely escaped, and this couldn't happen again.
However, Jinlai looked down on Yinlai's words and said, "So what if he stole something? That guy surnamed Chen has bad intentions towards our mother, can't I teach him a lesson? We take his things as compensation. Even if he is caught, so what? With such a small amount of things, can he ask the police to send me to the juvenile detention center?"
He said, "Come on, second brother, have some peach cake."
Yinlai didn't move: "Wait until mom comes back and return it to her."
This made Jin Lai very dissatisfied: "What's wrong with you!"
His two younger brothers had always been his followers, and whatever he said was what he did. But now it was different?
Yinlai lowered his voice and said, "Brother, it's because of stealing that I became like this. I don't want to..."
He swallowed his saliva. He was really greedy, but he didn't dare to eat it for fear of making a mistake.
Jin came to see his cowardly look and said, "Why are you like this now? Just eat whatever I tell you to eat. We won't leave any for anyone. Eat it all by yourself. Then even if they find out that the food is missing, they won't be able to find it."
He patted his stomach and said, "I ate it all. Where can they find it? Even mom doesn't know. How do you feel?"
Yin Lai swallowed greedily, but said, "I think... it's not that good."
He was really afraid something might happen.
"Brother, this is not possible..."
Jin Lai was so angry that he was speechless. He said, "Why are you such a loser? Why are you so useless now? You are not needed for anything. You won't even eat when I ask you to. I really am... Forget it, forget it. You and Lao San are no longer useful and can't be relied on. Tell me why the two of you are like this now."
He felt somewhat desolate, as he would be the only one left in this world of thieves among apricot blossoms.
Two younger brothers?
waste!
He would just eat a piece of peach cake and say, "If you don't want to eat it, forget it!"
