Zhao Guihua, Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhou are more than just a group of cobblers.
Oh, and there's also the non-staff member Mingmei.
Li Fang usually doesn't participate in this kind of thing, as she didn't have a strong presence in the hospital before. Others went to work or school. Mingmei, who was on maternity leave at home, had time to watch the fun.
Both parties were interested in each other, so Wang Zhaodi and Ye Qiang agreed to a blind date. Although they knew each other, they still had to go through the formal procedures. Zhao Guihua was the matchmaker, so the marriage was arranged by the banker.
Zhao Guihua baked a plate of peanuts, prepared a plate of melon seeds, a plate of sugar, opened a box of snacks, and four plates, and that was it.
Early in the morning, Wang Zhaodi changed into a dress that was about 70% new. When she came, she had only two sets of clothes, which were patched up and looked very ugly. The two sets she usually wears now were both discarded by Jiang Lu.
All the old clothes that Jiang Lu doesn't want are better than her newest clothes.
This outfit was specially found by Jiang Lu for Wang Zhaodi's blind date. It was a dark red plaid top and a pair of blue-grey pants. She also wiped it with a lotion, and her face smelled fragrant. Wang Zhaodi put it on and still looked very pretty.
It was her first blind date, so she was a little nervous and asked, "Is this okay?"
Aunt Zhou: "That's right, you are more than suitable for anyone."
Wang Zhaodi smiled shyly, and then followed Aunt Zhou to the banker's house. Daqiang had already come over. He was dressed neatly today and had a haircut before coming. He looked very neat.
Because of the hard labor, he looks a little older than his actual age.
But even so, he looked to be in his early thirties at most, not much different from his actual age of twenty-eight, which was different from Bai Fendou, who was in his early thirties but looked like he was in his forties.
Daqiang is not that exaggerated.
When Wang Zhaodi walked in, Daqiang's eyes lit up. He already thought Wang Zhaodi was pretty, and now she looked even prettier.
Zhao Guihua immediately stood up: "Come, let me introduce you..."
After a pause, he smiled and said, "Look at me, you guys are not nervous, but I am."
Her words made everyone relax a little. Zhao Guihua said, "There's no need for me to introduce myself. We're all neighbors. You should know each other. This is Ye Qiang, this is Wang Zhaodi, please sit down."
The two of them sat down, and Zhao Guihua said with a smile: "I have introduced your family and personal situations to you first, so you should have a general idea of them."
The two nodded again.
In fact, they all knew that this was just a formality. They knew each other and were familiar with each other's personal situations. So there was nothing to say. Moreover, Daqiang came to find a matchmaker even though he knew Wang Zhaodi's situation, so there was no suspense about this.
Zhao Guihua: "Daqiang, Zhaodi is a very nice girl. She is stronger than other girls and eats a lot. But being able to eat is a blessing. She is strong and works very well. You know how we went up the mountain all day in the fall? works She better than us old ladies. She can even help us. She knows how to live a good life."
You have to say that you can eat it, otherwise it's not good.
Nowadays, blind dates are not introduced decades later, where people talk vaguely about the details and then get to know each other better. Most normal blind dates nowadays are very open and aboveboard. Those who are unclear or fake will be criticized.
Daqiang nodded. He knew about this. A fish pond was found on the mountain. They couldn't go fishing in the hot summer, but he heard that they picked a lot of mountain products in the autumn.
He said seriously: "I know she is very capable."
Zhao Guihua smiled and said, "You are also very capable. The work of the loading and unloading team is more tiring than ordinary work. You can still handle it with ease, which means you are definitely better than most people."
Daqiang: "I'm fine. I'm strong and this little bit of work won't affect anything."
Wang Zhaodi said crisply: "I am also very strong."
The two people smiled at each other.
That's a good idea! Zhao Guihua smiled and said, "Okay, come and eat."
Knock knock.
Someone knocked on the door, Mingmei poked her head in and said, "Mom, can you help me change the baby's diaper?"
Zhao Guihua: "You are so stupid. You can't even do this. I'll come right over. Aunt Zhou, come and help me."
Aunt Zhou: “Hey.”
In fact, changing diapers was all agreed upon. It was to give the young ones a chance to sit alone.
Zhao Guihua and Aunt Zhou went out together and followed Mingmei into the next room. The two little ones were sleeping on the kang, safe and sound, no need to worry. Aunt Zhou looked at the door, Zhao Guihua: "Don't worry too much, they will like each other."
Aunt Zhou snorted and said, "I am just worried. She is my goddaughter."
Zhao Guihua glanced at her: "Yo yo yo."
Aunt Zhou: "What are you talking about? I always do things in a one-size-fits-all manner."
Mingmei watched them bickering, supporting her chin and watching the fun.
This made Aunt Zhou feel uncomfortable. Aunt Zhou had rarely been to Mingmei's house, because Mingmei was not someone who was easy to deal with. Compared to the one who looked fierce, Aunt Zhou felt that Mingmei looked young and easy to bully. But the one who was rude was even harder to deal with.
She had not been here very often, but when she came and looked around, she said, "Your kang is really nice."
With the kang, the space is bigger. When the child grows up, he can crawl around. It's warm in winter.
Looking at other things, the room was tidy, with biscuit boxes and milk powder cans on the cabinet. Aunt Zhou curled her lips and said, "You live a good life. Zhao Guihua, your life is not as good as your daughter-in-law's, right?"
Zhao Guihua laughed and said, "You mean to ask me to compete with a breastfeeding woman for food? Please behave yourself."
"What are you talking about?"
"Don't stir up trouble when I say something unpleasant."
Aunt Zhou: “Huh.”
Mingmei had seen them bickering and asked, "What do you think would happen if Wang Zhaodi's family knew that he had found a partner who was a worker in the city?"
Zhao Guihua: "Not very good, it must suck blood."
Aunt Zhou: "I've thought about it. Daqiang doesn't look like a good person. Let him face Wang Zhaodi's family directly and be the bad guy."
Zhao Guihua nodded, agreeing with the idea. She said, "It's a good idea indeed. If he behaves viciously and calls the shots at home, then even if Wang Zhaodi marries well, her family won't dare to get involved. Besides, the two families are far away from each other, so they generally won't know the inside story."
As they were talking, Aunt Wang knocked on the door. The three giants met up, and Aunt Wang asked excitedly, "How is it?"
Zhao Guihua: "That's definitely good. Let's talk about Wang Zhaodi's family."
Aunt Wang: "Just fool them. After all, they are not that close and they won't interact much. It won't affect their lives."
Mingmei looked at them and said, "Have you forgotten how Wang Zhaodi got here?"
Everyone looked at her. Mingmei was smarter. She said, "Wang Zhaodi was introduced by Su Zhaodi. Zhaodi's parents come to our house, can we just ignore it? Nowadays, filial piety is very important."
I have to say that Mingmei's words are quite pertinent.
"You are right about that."
"Amei, we really forgot about this."
Zhao Guihua: "Even if that's the case, so what?"
She said fiercely, "Daqiang is a grown man and a laborer. Their loading and unloading team must be made up of grown men. Won't they be able to hold their own when the time comes? These days, the weak are always afraid of the strong, the strong are afraid of the strong, and the strong are afraid of the desperate. As long as Daqiang and Zhaodi both stand up, no one can bully them."
Zhao Guihua paused and said, "No matter how much we plan, we can't plan the life of the young couple clearly. They still have to face many things by themselves. If they are weak, they will be the only ones bullied. But if they are not easy to deal with, then Wang Zhaodi's family will not be able to turn the tables. As for Su Zhaodi's in-laws, they are just relatives, thousands of miles away, which is nothing. They didn't help us when we were in trouble. If we are really doing well, they can't even think about asking for money!"
After thinking about it, Aunt Zhou and Aunt Wang agreed with what Zhao Guihua said.
Mingmei was eager to try, and said with emotion: "I just don't have the energy to get involved in other things after giving birth to a child. Otherwise, I can take a leave to accompany Wang Zhaodi to her parents' home. If anyone talks nonsense, I will not be polite. It's a good opportunity to practice."
Three old ladies: “…”
You wanna fight?
"Forget it." Zhao Guihua said, "Just stay at home and take care of the children."
Mingmei shrugged and said, "I know."
"Hmm, hmm..." A soft baby voice sounded. Mingmei turned around immediately. She came to the kang and saw that her little brother had woken up. As soon as the little guy woke up, he looked for his mother. He pouted his little mouth and twisted it.
Mingmei immediately got on the kang, turned her back to everyone, and fed the child.
As soon as I put Xiaotuantuan down, Xiaoyuanyuan started waving her hands around unruly. It was so anxious.
The two fair-skinned babies were full and gently swayed their little hands. Little Tuantuan somehow grabbed her sister's hand, was stunned for a moment, and tilted her head, as if she was a little confused about how there could be a cub like herself, or maybe she simply treated her sister Yuanyuan as a big rag doll and held her tightly.
Although the brother and sister Xiaotuantuan and Xiaoyuanyuan are less than two months old, it can be seen that they are different babies.
The older brother, Xiaotuantuan, is more lively and active. Even though he is still so young, he can kick his feet. The younger sister, Xiaoyuanyuan, is a little lazy. The little one is the most greedy and is always the most active when it comes to feeding. She doesn’t care even if her brother pulls her and just stays in the bed. When her brother kicks the quilt, she curls up into a small ball.
But neither baby is a crybaby.
On the contrary, he is still a very sweet and happy baby.
Mingmei fed the two little ones, and they started babbling. Mingmei teased them, making them giggle.
Aunt Wang looked at them and said, "Your two little ones are so easy to coax. My child cries all night long. He can't stand any grievance and always wants to be held. If I don't hold you, he'll cry."
Zhao Guihua smiled: "For my two little ones, our whole family has agreed not to carry them around. Now Mingmei and I are at home. When Mingmei goes to work, I will be the only one left at home. I can't carry two children by myself. So we don't want them to develop such a habit. If they develop it, it will be difficult to take care of them."
Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhou nodded. Although the twins, a boy and a girl, made them happy, it would be difficult to take care of them if there were not enough people at home.
"What about summer?"
When talking about this, Zhao Guihua smiled a little. She said, "My old man plans to make a stroller for each of the little ones, so that we can put the child in it and push him out."
"Ah. This is fine."
Zhao Guihua was a little proud: "My old man is still very skillful."
Mingmei also teased the little one and said, "When the weather gets warmer, the baby can go out."
The little carp stood up and did some carp-like sounds.
Xiao Yuanyuan held hands with her brother, and for some reason, she put her brother's paw into her mouth. Then she spit it out with a grunt, and her mother understood the expression on her face: it was not tasty.
Xiao Tuantuan was almost bitten on the hand by her sister. She was very angry and waved her little paws at her sister, babbling and condemning Xiao Yuanyuan.
The little girl smiled innocently at Xiao Tuantuan, drooling...
Mingmei: "Pfft."
The children at home are so fun no matter how you look at them.
They were killing time in this room, and Daqiang and Wang Zhaodi were having a pretty good chat.
Daqiang: "You know my family situation, right? I only have one mother, who lives with my brother. Her personality is not as strong as Aunt Zhao and the others. But no matter what her personality is, we only have dinner together during the New Year and other holidays, and we don't see each other very often."
His mother was old-fashioned and insisted on living with her eldest son, helping to make a living there. She valued her eldest son more, and Daqiang was deceived into marriage last time, which brought shame to their family. So his mother disliked him even more.
However, although he didn't like him, he wasn't mean to him. He basically just maintained his face by not helping him much, but he also didn't take advantage of him.
After all, even if you don't like them, they are your own children.
This is also Daqiang's shortcoming. If he gets married, the young couple will definitely not have the help of the mother-in-law. However, what Daqiang thinks is his shortcoming is exactly what Wang Zhaodi is happy about. Without the pressure of the mother-in-law, she can be the master of the family.
Both of them are honest people. Once they talked about each other's personal conditions, they got to know each other's situation.
When Zhao Guihua and Aunt Zhou came back, the two of them were already having a very pleasant conversation.
Zhao Guihua and the others exchanged glances, then laughed and said, "What do you two think of it?"
Daqiang was a sincere man and said, "I have always liked Zhaodi."
Zhaodi also blushed and said firmly, "I like it, too."
Since both parties are willing, there is nothing more to say!
What everyone was worried about at first was not that they would not be able to find the right person, but that they would have to go back to their hometown after finding the right person. Zhao Guihua: "You have to go back and get a letter of introduction."
Wang Zhaodi took a deep breath and said, "I can do it."
Daqiang: "Let's go back together and discuss it carefully..."
"What the hell! Can't you talk nicely after you get there?" Zhao Guihua felt that Daqiang was really a simple person. She said, "You can't do this. I think you can't talk nicely after you get there. Some people are bullies and take advantage of others. If you talk nicely, they will try to control you. When you go to Zhaodi's parents' house, you must be rude and act as arrogantly as you can. In your arrogance, you must also be stingy."
Daqiang: “???”
Zhao Guihua: "You are such a fool. You are kind at home, but you'd better be fierce when you go out."
He thought about it and felt that the older you are, the wiser you are. He nodded, "Okay!"
Daqiang thought about it quickly and said, "Can I ask you to go with me to Zhaodi's hometown? I won't let you go in vain."
He said: "I can pretend to be fierce, and I am not weak. I will be tough when I need to be tough. But I am afraid that I can't grasp the balance. The main thing is that I married someone's daughter after all."
"So what?"
Aunt Zhou pouted and said, "A family that sells their daughter like this deserves to be wiped out."
She hated such things.
"Oh, you say, if Jiang Lu is not pregnant, I will go with you. It's better than Zhao Guihua. I am the best at dealing with such people."
Zhao Guihua was also a little worried: "My baby was just born, and Mingmei is too busy to take care of two children!"
It's not convenient for her to leave.
"How about waiting for two months until Jiang Lu gives birth?"
"That won't work. I have to take care of Sister Jiang Lu during her confinement, and I won't have enough time then." Wang Zhaodi said.
"Mom. Go ahead."
As everyone was discussing, Jiang Lu came back. She was very calm and said, "You should go back with Wang Zhaodi. It's more appropriate for you to go than Aunt Zhao. And we had an agreement at the beginning, and we agreed to compensate Zhaodi. But now that you have recognized Zhaodi as your goddaughter, many things are different. I think it will be better for you to go than Aunt Zhao. Anyway, it's okay to go earlier and come back earlier."
After a pause, she said, "Although you are not at home, Aunt Zhao and Aunt Wang are both here. I will call them if there is anything."
Zhao Guihua: "That's right, Aunt Zhou, I can help you take care of Jiang Lu."
Aunt Wang: "I can, too."
Zhao Guihua really wanted to go to the countryside with them, but she was really busy here.
Aunt Zhou looked at Jiang Lu's big belly, and Jiang Lu smiled: "I'm in good condition now, and Zhou Qun is at home."
Aunt Zhou: “But…”
Logically speaking, Jiang Lu is about to give birth.
Jiang Lu: "I think, maybe the child knows that his grandmother is going to do good deeds, and he can hold on until you come back?"
Aunt Zhou: "Let me think about it."
Zhao Guihua looked at Jiang Lu and then at Aunt Zhou.
For some reason, Zhao Guihua felt that Jiang Lu wanted Aunt Zhou to leave. She lowered her eyes. If she had not been reborn, she would definitely not think too much about it, but it was precisely because of her rebirth that she knew that Zhou Qun was originally infertile.
So, there must be something wrong with the birth date of Jiang Lu's child.
Zhao Guihua glanced at Aunt Zhou and said nothing.
After a long while, Aunt Zhou said, "Okay, I'll go back with Wang Zhaodi."
Daqiang and Wang Zhaodi were both very grateful.
Aunt Zhou was willing to go with them, which was considered a backbone, and Jiang Lu breathed a sigh of relief. If she got pregnant first and then claimed that she was pregnant, she could still put it off as premature birth.
But if you claim to be pregnant first and then announce the pregnancy, then things will be different.
This is even more difficult to operate.
Jiang Lu hoped that Aunt Zhou would not be there when she gave birth. This way she would be a little more secure. Although the words might be the same, her mental state would be different if she was not there.
There is definitely a difference between lying when she is nervous and lying when she is not nervous.
During these two months, although Jiang Lu looked calm, he was becoming increasingly nervous inside.
She felt a lot more relieved.
Aunt Zhou calculated that there were still a few days left, and it wouldn't be too late to go back and forth a little faster, so she made up her mind and said, "Okay, then we'll leave tomorrow."
Daqiang and Wang Zhaodi nodded.
Although things are rushing together, it is better to deal with it early than late. Zhao Guihua is very happy for Wang Zhaodi, and also happy for Daqiang. They are both capable, and their future life will not be bad.
Daqiang from the next courtyard had a successful blind date with Wang Zhaodi from their courtyard, and the news spread quickly in the courtyard. When the news spread, the one who was most surprised and sad was Bai Fendou. It was not that Bai Fendou had a crush on Wang Zhaodi.
He was jealous of Shang Daqiang.
He always boasts that he is a great young man and that most people cannot compare to him.
But now Daqiang is a laborer, and other people have been married twice. He has never been married, how can he not be sad and cry?
This is so unfair!
Why does a good man like him always have to suffer this? Life is full of ups and downs. Why does a good man like him always have to face such a trick of fate? He also doesn't understand how such a wicked old lady like Aunt Zhou can be so dedicated to Wang Zhaodi.
Bai Fendou heard that the person was introduced by Zhao Guihua, so he took the initiative to come to the Zhuang family. The Zhuang family had already finished dinner, and Zhao Guihua and his old man were studying how to make a children's car. Although he had not received much education, Zhuang Laonian had good hands-on skills, better than his two sons.
He was responsible for the work, while Zhao Guihua was responsible for the design, since she was well-informed.
While the two were discussing, Bai Fendou arrived.
Zhao Guihua was quite surprised: "Fendou, why are you here? Have you eaten?"
Bai Fendou: "I've eaten."
He looked at Zhao Guihua bitterly and said, "Aunt Zhao, you said we are from the same courtyard. You can introduce someone to Daqiang from the next courtyard, so why can't you introduce someone to me? I am single too."
He felt wronged and came right to the point.
Zhao Guihua raised her eyebrows and said, "Isn't it based on whether they are suitable for each other? If they are suitable, then they will be introduced. If you two are not suitable, then naturally they will not be introduced. If I introduce you to other people, I don't know who they are."
She said: "I'm not a professional matchmaker. Professional matchmakers don't have anyone suitable to introduce to you. Who else can I introduce to you?"
Zhao Guihua was even more direct than him: "It's hard to find a suitable one in your current state. By the way, how is your Guan Guiling?"
They knew that Bai Fendou had never given up on Guan Guiling.
When Guan Guiling was mentioned, Bai Fendou's expression became a little embarrassed.
Zhao Guihua didn't care what he thought, and said bluntly: "You still miss Guan Guiling, you expect others to introduce you? Even if they introduce you, it won't work. Fight, you are a kind person. But when it comes to doing things, you are not very appropriate. Do you know what I mean?"
Bai Fendou: "I..."
He pursed his lips, wanting to say something, and wanted to explain that he no longer wanted to be with Guan Guiling, but before he opened his mouth, he felt his heart bleeding.
He was dejected and said, "How did Guiling and I end up like this?"
This thought made him hate Chen Yuan even more. If Chen Yuan hadn't done something to retaliate against him, he and Guan Guiling would have been married long ago and they would be a harmonious family now. He couldn't continue talking to Zhao Guihua, so he turned around and walked out.
He silently came to the door of Chen Yuan's house. Chen Yuan and Tao Yuye had already returned to live there.
They went back to Chen Yuan's parents' house during the Chinese New Year and came back after the 15th day of the first lunar month. But because of Bai Fendou's outrageous behavior, Chen Yuan felt that he had lost face and was now avoiding Bai Fendou.
In fact, he didn't really want to hide from Bai Fendou. Chen Yuan had been the treasure of the family since he was a child. That was a promise. No matter what happened, he would take revenge. According to his thinking, he wanted to deal with Bai Fendou. Bai Fendou made him lose face and had so many ugly gossips. How could he let it go? the two of them would be involved together, which would be so embarrassing. The reputation of their Chen Yuan could not be ruined any more.
Although Chen Yuan was arrogant, he also felt that what his parents said made sense, so he had been very quiet recently. Although he moved back, he went out early and came back late, but he didn't jump much. Even Tao Yuye was the same.
In her previous life, Tao Yuye was very popular among her sisters. No matter how she lived behind her back, or whether her husband was a domestic abuser, her husband's family never let her down financially.
But this life is different. They moved to a courtyard house, where even the smallest things would be spread, not to mention the conflicts between Chen Yuan and Bai Fendou. Tao Yuye has no face. She goes to work with a stern face every day.
Of course, this is not important. What is important is that their home is very quiet now and their presence is very low.
Of the two couples who woke up, Zhang San and his wife were obviously more friendly with everyone, while Chen Yuan and his wife rarely showed up.
But even so, Bai Fendou thought of his own suffering, and silently came to the backyard, squatting on the corridor and looking at Chen Yuan's family. He did nothing but stare at this family.
After washing the rice, Tao Yuye came out to pour water. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Bai Fendou squatting in the corner and staring at their house.
She was startled for a moment, frowned and said, "What are you looking at?"
Bai Fendou didn't say anything, just stared at their house with resentment.
Tao Yuye was frightened by his look, so she hurried into the room and grabbed Chen Yuan, who was lying on his side listening to the radio and clapping his hands. When he saw Tao Yuye's reckless look, he slapped her and said, "What are you doing? Can't you see I'm listening to an opera?"
Tao Yuye bit her lip, feeling very uncomfortable. She was also born by her parents, so should she be beaten like this? She took a deep breath and said, "Bai Fendou is standing at the door."
"What!"
Chen Yuan sat up and said, "He's at the door, what is he doing at the door? Is he looking for trouble again?"
Tao Yuye: "I don't know either. He didn't say anything. He just stared at our family, Chen Yuan. I'm a little scared."
Chen Yuan sneered and said, "What's there to be afraid of? When did you become so timid? Who am I, Chen Yuan? How dare he offend me so easily? Are you really tired of living? Are you fed up with it?"
He stood up: "I'll go take a look."
He walked to the door, feeling a little nervous, but still looked arrogant. That was just how he was. He wasn't a powerful person, but he was very good at pretending. He looked outside and saw Bai Fendou staring at him.
Chen Yuan's heart skipped a beat and he said, "What are you looking at?"
As expected of a married couple, they speak the same way.
Bai Fendou said nothing and continued to stare at their house, which made Chen Yuan feel uneasy.
He shouted, "Bai Fendou, do you have bad intentions? Why are you standing at my door?"
Bai Fendou still didn't say anything, just stared at Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan: "What a piece of trash you are!"
Bai Fendou suddenly stood up. Chen Yuan: “Ah!”
He screamed and quickly closed the door.
Bai Fendou laughed mockingly and said, "What a coward."
He came to the window of Chen Yuan's house and sat down directly. As for what he wanted to do, he didn't know, but he was in a bad mood. When he was in a bad mood, he wanted to trouble Chen Yuan. After all, who else could he find if not Chen Yuan? Chen Yuan was the one who destroyed his true love.
Chen Yuan looked out through the glass and saw Bai Fendou sitting under his window. He was walking around in the room, a little bit at a loss. He had always been pampered in his life. Even if there was something wrong, there were people to deal with it for him.
His grandparents, his parents, and his oldest sister, each of them could handle it for him.
But what about now?
He lived in this shabby yard and had to face Bai Fendou, a bastard lunatic. He felt miserable for a moment. How did his life end up like this? He glanced out the window again and said to Tao Yuye, "Go chase him away."
Tao Yuye was looking in the mirror at this time, and one side of her face was swollen from being hit by him.
Tao Yuye didn't look back, but looked at Chen Yuan through the mirror without saying a word.
She didn't know why Chen Yuan, who was so gentle and polite, would hit people before, but when she went to live with Chen's family during the Spring Festival, she finally figured it out. Everyone in this family was the same. Chen Yuan's grandfather, who was so old, would still hit the old lady. If they didn't agree with each other, they would just slap her.
And Director Chen, Chen Yuan's father, was a nice guy at the machinery factory, speaking well and being polite, but he was bossy at home. Even though Chen Yuan's mother was already the deputy director of the food factory, she was quite capable, no worse than Chen Yuan's father, and even had a higher position. But at home, she still had to listen to Chen Yuan's father. Director Chen would also fight if they didn't agree. This family was like this from top to bottom.
It's not surprising at all that Chen Yuan would hit people.
If the upper beam is crooked, the lower beams will be crooked!
"I'm talking to you? Can you hear me?" Chen Yuan was unhappy.
Tao Yuye: "I heard it, but how can I chase him away?"
She looked at Chen Yuan helplessly and said, "Can Bai Fendou still listen to me? If he listened to me, he wouldn't have beaten you like that last time."
Chen Yuan pursed his lips and said, "Weren't you quite fierce last time? Even if you fought with him, he couldn't hit a woman like you, right?"
This man is so shameless that he doesn't dare to fight with Bai Fendou, but instead instigates his wife to do it.
As for whether Tao Yuye would be beaten, Chen Yuan didn't care at all.
Tao Yuye looked at Chen Yuan's indifferent expression, took a deep breath, and said, "I'm not going."
Chen Yuan looked at his wife in disbelief and said, "You're not going?"
He stretched out his hand to hit her: "You actually talked back to me. I've spoiled you, haven't I?"
Tao Yuye quickly dodged, which made Chen Yuan even more dissatisfied. He shouted, "What's wrong with you? What's the matter? Who is the boss in our family? I think you don't understand the situation, right?"
He picked up the broom and hit Tao Yuye.
Tao Yuye: “Ah!”
She dodged as hard as she could, dodging the waving broom and shouting, "If you hit me again, I'm going to call the Women's Federation."
“You dare!”
"What am I afraid of? I don't want to be beaten all my life like your grandma and your mom." Tao Yuye didn't want to get divorced, but she also didn't want to be beaten all her life. Chen Yuan's grandma was beaten at such an old age, and it was chilling to think about it.
"What kind of family tradition is this in your family? A grown man can only beat his wife. He is even worse than working hard in vain."
"What did you say!"
Chen Yuan was so angry that he attacked again. Tao Yuye dodged desperately and picked up the frying pan and hit Chen Yuan. Chen Yuan: "Ah!!!"
Tao Yuye saw that it worked, so she banged it a few more times. Chen Yuan: “You, you, you. You bitch…”
He squatted down, covering his head.
Tao Yuye took a deep breath and said, "Don't try to hit me, don't try to hit me!"
This frying pan was her dowry. Originally, the family had a big pot, so there was no need for this small one. But her mother said that this small pot was the most convenient to make porridge on the stove in winter, so she still gave her one as a dowry.
I don’t know if hot porridge is convenient, but it is very convenient for beating people.
Tao Yuye: "Don't even think about doing anything to me!"
She waved the frying pan in her hand and said, "If you lay hands on me, I will beat you to death."
Chen Yuan: "You, you, you bitch!"
"You are disrespectful, we are the same. If you dare to hit me, I will hit you back."
Chen Yuan was furious: "You bastard!"
"snort!"
Although Chen Yuan was angry, he still didn't dare to continue. After all, Tao Yuye was not someone who could be easily bullied. She didn't resist before, so he became even more aggressive. Now that she resisted, Chen Yuan was not so brave.
After all, being beaten hurts, and Tao Yuye will fight back.
He also snorted, got up and reluctantly lay down on the bed, saying: "Sooner or later, I will divorce you."
Tao Yuye said nothing and continued cooking.
These two people acted as if the fight just now didn't exist at all.
Bai Fendou listened to the whole thing from the window and was shocked: "This woman knows how to hit people!"
He always used to think that it was Chen Yuan who beat Tao Yuye, but now it seems that Tao Yuye would fight back.
At this moment, Bai Fendou felt that he didn't understand women at all.
He thought Wang Xiangxiu was a good person, but Wang Xiangxiu ended up cheating him.
He thought Guan Guiling was a good person, but she dumped him for profit.
He thought Tao Yuye was a gentle, foolish and pitiful person who was bullied, but Tao Yuye would fight back. She also hit Chen Yuan.
It must be said that these things made Bai Fendou feel dazed for a moment. He stood up and quietly returned to the front yard. When he saw Zhuang Zhixi going out, he immediately approached him and said, "Xiao Zhuang."
Zhuang Zhixi: "What's wrong?"
Bai Fendou: "Do you understand women?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "I don't understand, but I understand my wife."
Bai Fendou twitched his lips, and Zhuang Zhixi was curious: "What's wrong? What were you doing in the backyard just now?"
Bai Fendou: "I went to Chen Yuan's house. I wanted to see how vicious he was. He broke up Guan Guiling and I. I didn't expect to see them fighting each other again. You said, Tao Yuye looked very gentle. Why is this woman so hard to understand?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "She's someone else's daughter-in-law, you don't need to understand her very well."
"But……"
"No buts!"
Bai Fendou: "Fortunately I didn't look for her. You said this..."
Zhuang Zhixi felt that Bai Fendou really had no way to escape the summer heat. Even if Tao Yuye knew how to beat people, she would definitely look down on Bai Fendou. Where on earth did Bai Fendou get his self-righteousness from?
Zhuang Zhixi looked at Bai Fendou and said seriously, "She doesn't like you either. If you really want to find a partner, then you should seriously consider your conditions. If you still insist on not changing your mind, then you won't find one even if you are fifty."
Having said that, he turned and left.
“Don’t leave…”
Zhuang Zhixi ignored Bai Fendou. He was just chatting with Bai Fendou because he had nothing to do.
He walked in. Mingmei asked, "What did Bai Fendou want to talk to you about again?"
Zhuang Zhixi: "That's nonsense."
He said: "I don't want to bother with him. I remember how he schemed against me for the Su family. It's true that it didn't work, but it's not like it didn't happen. I was kind enough. I even helped him when his father passed away. But that doesn't mean I want to be friends with him. I don't want to listen to his messy thoughts."
Zhuang Zhixi sat down and poked the baby's face with his hand. The cold fingers made the baby very dissatisfied, and he groaned and moved away.
Zhuang Zhixi smiled: "My baby is really smart. He knows it's cold now."
Mingmei: "He always has feelings. Isn't he a little fool if he doesn't know whether it's hot or cold?"
Zhuang Zhixi smiled: "Is this a brother or a sister?"
The two children were lying side by side on the kang, wearing the same clothes, and it was impossible to tell them apart.
Mingmei: "This is my brother."
Zhuang Zhixi: "Sure enough, Xiaotuantuan is more active."
Mingmei: "It's normal for children to have different personalities."
It was the first time for the two of them to raise a baby, but they took good care of the baby. Zhuang Zhixi: "Little darling, smile for daddy..."
Mingmei: "This is a stupid dad."
Early the next morning, Aunt Zhou took Daqiang and Wang Zhaodi out. Wang Zhaodi didn't wear decent clothes, so she changed into the clothes she had brought with her. Because she had gained weight, the clothes seemed a little tight, but because it was cold, she put on a thick coat outside, so it was okay.
The thick cotton-padded jacket she was wearing was one that Aunt Zhou had discarded.
Daqiang was the same, wearing an ordinary patched outfit.
Zhao Guihua went to the station to see them off and reminded them on the way: "Be careful when you go out. Don't say anything you shouldn't. Also, be poor if you should be poor. Zhaodi looks a little too good. Put some dust on your face, make it darker and sloppier. It will be safer outside."
Aunt Zhou: "Don't worry, Zhao Guihua, I'll take care of everything."
She was ready to fight, treating Wang Zhaodi's parents' home as her own. She was young at that time and didn't know how to resist. All she could do was to make herself look better and have a better way out.
Later I realized that it was no use trying better. If you can't make your own decisions, if someone can sell you out once, they will sell you out a second time.
In the old society, people were all man-eating devils.
So she stood up. She would rather be a mean person that everyone hates, selfish and vicious, than be manipulated by others and end up in a miserable situation. She took out the spirit of Wu Song fighting the tiger and said, "I will take care of everything!"
Isn’t it Wang Zhaodi’s parents’ home?
Look at hers!
She is as bad at throwing tantrums as an old lady from the countryside.
Daqiang looked at the two old ladies and felt particularly warm in his heart. It is true that you cannot judge a person by his appearance. The rumors are all bullshit.
Everyone said that the old lady in this courtyard was not easy to mess with, but he could really feel that she had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Even his own mother could not help in this matter. But they could.
He was also serious: "I won't hold you back. I've seen this kind of villain many times. This time, I want to save Zhaodi from suffering."
"It's good for you to think so."
Zhao Guihua sent them to the car and then walked back.
To be honest, she wanted to go, but she was too busy at home. Mingmei was a young wife with her first child, and she couldn't take care of her at all. So this matter had to be left to Aunt Zhou.
But to be honest, Zhao Guihua is not that worried.
Aunt Zhou is not an ordinary old lady. She has been making trouble since she was young. She is not someone to be trifled with. They are used to it and can deal with it. People from outside may not be able to handle it.
She goes out and makes a scene, which is very useful to the outside world.
Zhao Guihua was riding her bicycle back when she suddenly stopped with a squeak. She looked at the person not far away and found that it was none other than Jin Lai.
At the end of last year, Jin Lai was sent to a juvenile detention center. Three months was not a long time, and he came back after the New Year. Because it was not a good thing, Wang Xiangxiu did not make a big fuss about it. She took the child back and he went back to school a few days later.
But now...
It's not Sunday, why is this kid wandering around on the street when he's not in school? Is he skipping classes?
Zhao Guihua couldn't help but sigh that children have even less sense of right and wrong than adults and are difficult to manage.
Although she was also imprisoned, Aunt Zhou came out a different person. At least she knew what was wrong and behaved more restrainedly. She was educated in prison and knew that there were some mistakes that should not be made.
But even though they went in, Su Jinlai's one trip was like he hadn't been in. It was the same as before.
Zhao Guihua watched Su Jinlai walk into an alley, and she followed him silently. It was not because she was curious, but because she wanted to see what this kid was doing. She was afraid that this kid would bring people back to steal things. After all, this kid was not a good person.
Zhao Guihua followed Jin Lai quietly and saw the boy walking around a large courtyard and quietly making a mark.
Zhao Guihua: “???”
Before she could react, she saw a few more boys coming over. They were not big and certainly not yet adults. Some were older than Su Jinlai, and some were younger than Su Jinlai. After they gathered together, they pointed at the yard and then quickly left one by one, arm in arm.
Needless to say, Zhao Guihua guessed that these people were most likely the bad kids that Jin Lai knew inside.
In the past, Jinlai always took Yinlai and Tonglai with him. But Yinlai was educated by Zhu and became completely obedient. Tonglai witnessed the major changes in his family and also became completely obedient. It is not surprising that Su Jinlai lost his two followers and found other friends when he expanded outward.
She shook her head and looked around the compound again, thinking that these naughty kids might have set their sights on one of the families.
Zhao Guihua doesn't spoil these children. Nowadays, every family has a hard time. If they are stolen, it will be really painful. Although Zhao Guihua is not sure that Jin Lai and his men will definitely take action, she still took the initiative to go to the police station.
Well……
For the people in their yard, going to the police station is as familiar as walking through the city gate.
As soon as Zhao Guihua went there, she was recognized. Zhao Guihua found the person who had investigated Yu Baoshan and was struck by lightning last time, and whispered her findings to him.
Is she considered an early Chaoyang auntie, a caring citizen? Regardless of whether she is, Zhao Guihua has to speak out. When Wang Gongan heard about this, he nodded and said, "We know. I will keep an eye on this matter."
After a pause, he said, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone that it was you who said it."
Zhao Guihua nodded: "That's fine."
She said: "I'm not afraid of Wang Xiangxiu, but I really don't want to get involved with her family."
Wang Gongan knew this. Many people didn't want to cause trouble even if they exposed the truth. Because of this, the two of them whispered a few more words, and Zhao Guihua rode her bike home. As soon as she entered the yard, she met Aunt Sui and asked, "Did you go to the station?"
Zhao Guihua hummed and said, "I'll go see Zhaodi and the others off."
Aunt Sui: "That's good. Zhaodi is a lucky girl."
If she hadn't come to this courtyard, she wouldn't have had such an encounter.
Zhao Guihua smiled and said, "It's all God's will."
"That's right." Aunt Sui smiled and quickly said, "By the way, did you know? Pan Pan is pregnant."
Zhao Guihua: "Huh? Pan Pan is pregnant? This is a great joy."
"Yes, they are really quick. They got pregnant not long after getting married. They are really blessed."
Zhao Guihua: "You are well-informed."
Aunt Sui laughed, "What? This is what Zhang San and Pan Pan told me. Don't they live next to my house? Pan Pan is pregnant, and it's only been two months. The parents of the two families are worried. Pan Pan's parents' home is so good. So they let her go home to recuperate, and the family can help take care of her. Zhang San's daughter-in-law is pregnant, so naturally they don't want to separate and live separately. The young couple are going to Pan Pan's parents' home. Recently, no one is here, so they told me to help look after the house."
Zhao Guihua: "It's good for them to do this. Sometimes young people feel at ease when there is an elder to help take care of them."
"Who said it wasn't? Besides, I think they went to Pan Pan's parents' home because Chen Yuan and Tao Yuye were too noisy."
"What?" Zhao Guihua didn't understand.
Aunt Sui: "Chen Yuan and his wife quarrel and fight all the time. People who live next door are afraid that they will be affected and have a miscarriage. You don't know because you live in the front yard, but these two couples can make a lot of noise. In the past, it was Chen Yuan who beat his wife, but now Tao Yuye also resists. Oh my god, there was still crackling yesterday evening. Tao Yuye's frying pan is really useful, specially used for fighting! You say there are so many noises every day, the young couple just got pregnant, how dare they not move out? They just want to keep it quiet."
Zhao Guihua: “…”
She sighed, "I think Tao Yuye was right to resist. Otherwise, this wouldn't be the end. Where did she learn such bad habits? She even beat her wife. What a promising man. Haha."
"That's true."
They all looked down on Chen Yuan's beating of his wife, so there was nothing wrong with Tao Yuye's resistance.
"Maybe if Tao Yuye resisted, Chen Yuan wouldn't dare to do it. There is really no precedent of beating a wife in our compound. It really set a bad example. It's a good thing for Chen Yuan to be educated and punished. Let him know that women are not easy to mess with."
After hearing this, Aunt Sui also laughed: "That makes sense..."
Tao Yuye didn't want outsiders to interfere. So they naturally shouldn't interfere too much, because it would be useless if they interfered too much! But although Tao Yuye didn't want others to interfere, she was not someone who would just accept it. If she really encountered something, it would be a good thing if she could resist it herself.
Chen Yuan's character...
Haha, I may not be able to beat Tao Yuye.
Damn! (End of this chapter)
