The morning sunshine is particularly bright.
The smell in the early morning is especially fresh.
But this morning was a little different from the past. The sun was still as bright as before, but the smell was not as fresh. In the early morning, there was a faint stench in the air.
There was no doubt that it smelled like a cesspool.
Fortunately, it is winter now. If it were summer, the stink would definitely kill many people.
Regardless of whether others think so or not, the young couple Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei do think so. It's early in the morning and there are still some people in the yard. There is nothing they can do. The first, second, and third shows last night were delayed for a long time by the fights, and there are also subsequent performances.
Anyway, this matter is not over yet.
Although the argument was not complete, a few things were clear, first of all, the issue of the thief, after last night's interrogation, it was confirmed that Jin Lai was not the habitual thief who had been roaming around recently.
His strength is far from reaching this level.
It's really... really sad. All the people who were catching the thieves felt very lost, just like eggplants hit by frost.
It's all in vain anyway.
As for Jin Lai, although he did break into the house and pick the lock, the case was of little value, and he did receive actual punishment—falling into a manure pit. So, as everyone had guessed, after some criticism and education, he was not arrested.
That makes sense. In today's society, a child doesn't steal much, so it's definitely not the case that he needs to be arrested by calling the police.
Of course, although Jin Lai was not severely punished, everyone still had the credit for catching the thief, but there was a big difference in credit between catching a big thief and a small thief. Everyone was disappointed again, and they were disappointed in Tianjin.
The reason why this mediation has not been concluded is not to investigate how much responsibility the thief should take, nor how much credit everyone should take for catching the thief, but... who will compensate for this piece of shit. Those who have suffered from this unprovoked disaster must seek an explanation.
There were also the actual victims of the theft, the Zhuang family and the Zhou family.
Who can eat it when it's all stained with this stuff? It's definitely not possible. They will definitely ask for compensation.
However, even if the Su family wanted to return the things, they could not get them back. Such a thing is rare in the world. Yesterday's "stolen goods", well, real stolen goods, were lost because they were not picked up in time.
I don't know who stole it.
This is outrageous, absolutely outrageous!
Damn it, if this is a good thing, it is normal for someone to steal it, but, but, but, this one is covered in shit!!!
It's really puzzling that people would take advantage of such a bargain.
In short, it is true that the stolen goods were lost, but compensation must be paid. Zhao Guihua would not give up, and Aunt Zhou would not give up either. There were also the onlookers dressed in gold. Small problems could be washed away, but big problems always wanted to be discussed.
They kept chattering all night long. When Zhuang Zhixi got up in the morning to go to work, these people had not yet dispersed. The whole yard was filled with an unconcealable smell.
Breakfast, there's no need to eat breakfast, no need to eat in the whole yard.
It's not about being hungry, but about being too disgusting.
With this taste, I absolutely cannot eat it.
Zhuang Zhixi only slept for more than an hour. His wife was about the same as him. Both husband and wife were a little listless, but apart from the children, they were the only ones who slept in the yard. For example, their eldest sister-in-law Liang Meifen had dark circles under her eyes like a panda.
But even so, she was still full of energy. If it weren't for the strong smell, she would have been able to stay outside all night. Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei didn't have breakfast, but they were afraid of being hungry, so they each packed three pieces of peach cake and put them in their bags. Hu Tou looked at them eagerly, and Mingmei said bluntly: "Why don't you take it yourself?"
Hu Tou grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "Grandma knows how to curse."
Mingmei thought about it and it was true. But who could cook in this situation? The adults were too disgusted to eat, but the children were not. The children could eat even in the pit. She said, "It doesn't matter today. I can't cook. I'll get it for you."
She shared the food among the children, and saw Leung Mei-fun looking at her with expectation in her eyes, hoping that Ming-mei would also share the food with her, but Ming-mei didn't care about that.
Hu Tou and Xiao Yan Zi are just children. Does the eldest sister-in-law, who is an adult, need to ask her to take the lead? If you want to eat, just take it yourself and tell your mother-in-law when the time comes. Why should she do this? So it's no wonder that Zhuang Zhixi doesn't like this eldest sister-in-law. She is too much of a jerk in her dealings.
He wants to take advantage, but doesn't want to stand out.
No one spoils her.
Mingmei and Zhuang Zhixi ignored her and just left. Liang Meifen looked at her son and daughter holding peach cakes. She bit her lip and said, "Give me some."
Tiger Head said firmly: "Ask grandma for it!"
It's clearly in the box, why should I ask him for it! Hu Tou took his sister and ran out with a thump.
Liang Meifen was so angry: "I really raised you guys for nothing. You won't even give me the peach cakes when I asked for them."
She looked back at the peach cake box again, sighed, and finally didn't take it. This person is like this, she wants to eat, but she hopes others will take the lead.
Hutou and Xiaoyanzi ran to the yard, but they couldn't bear it anymore after a while. The two children went to the street hand in hand. As soon as they walked out of the door, they came back vomiting. The smell outside was also very strong.
They are small, but not stupid.
As for what Mingmei was thinking, a child can eat in a manure pit, the child doesn't know. If anyone knew, they would have to argue with them, how could they be so shameless? Impossible, absolutely impossible.
The two children ran straight back to their own hut and closed the door tightly.
Can't bear it.
Because of work, there were fewer people, and those who stayed were basically not working. Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei separated at the fork in the road and went their own way. Although Zhuang Zhixi walked, he arrived at the office very quickly, and he almost arrived on time.
As soon as I entered the infirmary, Dr. Wang frowned and said, "Why do you seem to smell a little strange?"
Zhuang Zhixi lowered his head and smelled himself, and said, "Is there? That's probably the smell of a manure pit."
Everyone raised their heads at once and looked at him.
Zhuang Zhixi: "I didn't fall into the manure pit, but there was a big fight in the manure pit in our area last night. The smell lingered all night. I didn't even have breakfast today."
"Fighting in the Shithole? What is this?"
Topics like this always make people feel a little excited.
Zhuang Zhixi: "It's all about catching a thief. As you know, there have been a lot of thieves in our area recently. Originally..."
The matter was too tortuous and bizarre. From beginning to end, this story was really tortuous and interesting. Not to mention, Zhuang Zhixi was very good at telling stories. The situation last night was not complicated, but it was really ups and downs in his mouth.
It starts with catching a thief and ends with Bai Fendou scolding the petty thief.
At this turn, he recognized the child, and in the process of snatching the stolen goods, he fell into the toilet. Every link was perfect...
He kept on talking, and soon even the security guard who was strolling over and Director Chen from Dr. Wang's office, who happened to be looking for his wife, were listening to his vivid descriptions and didn't want to leave. It was a huge loss for them not to see such a grand scene.
Xiao Jia from the security team stroked his chin and said, "No wonder Bai Fendou asked for leave today."
Xiao Yi from the security team: "His father has also asked for leave."
There are not only the father and the son who have asked for leave, there are several other people as well.
Zhuang Zhixi: "The father and son were heroes who saved the damsel in distress yesterday! Especially Uncle Bai, who bravely stepped forward at the critical moment. Not only did he fight with the old woman to protect Aunt Su, he also paid for the medical treatment of the grandson."
"What a love story," Dr. Wang sighed.
Zhuang Zhixi nodded: "Isn't it? In fact, Aunt Su, Aunt Zhou and Uncle Bai didn't fall down, so it shouldn't have happened like that. But they all rushed to hold the thief, and they made a fool of themselves... Aunt Zhou got into a terrible fight with them."
"Your yard is really lively."
Zhuang Zhixi: "That's not true, but it's a pity that they made such a fuss last night. The one they caught was a petty thief named Jin Lai, but the real habitual thief was not caught. They fought fiercely last night, I wonder if they still have the energy to patrol today."
Doctor Wang: “…”
Others: “…”
At this time, Dr. Wang's husband, Director Chen, grasped the key point and said, “Yesterday, Bai Fendou grabbed the guy who was dragged away by Zhou Qun…”
Zhuang Zhixi: “…”
As a leader, do you care about such things? But he was an honest man, and he would not lie or conceal anything. He nodded solemnly and said, "Isn't it? Zhou Qun and his wife were furious and fighting. I was not in the front and didn't see clearly, but they were all in chaos. By the way, did they go to work today?"
He left early in the morning, so he didn't meet anyone.
"I don't know. I guess he can't come. It's already like this, why doesn't he have to take a day off?" Director Chen speculated.
"They didn't come!" Xiaojia, a security guard in the security team who was responsible for guarding the door, said, "Neither the couple came to work, but Wang Xiangxiu did come. She is really amazing. She encountered such a thing last night, but she didn't miss a day of work today."
I have to say, this kind of woman is great.
"How brave."
"That's right. You don't know. Our compound still smells. I was far away last night, but they took a hot shower and that thing went with the hot water, making the smell even stronger. I felt like I couldn't breathe."
The nurse was kind: "You didn't have breakfast? I have a sweet potato here, you..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhuang Zhixi shook his head like a rattle and said, "No! That's not necessary!"
He was very firm: "I don't want this! I really can't eat it!"
He smiled bitterly and said, "I can't bear it."
Everyone was stunned and burst into laughter. Zhuang Zhixi sighed, "It's difficult for me."
"I remember we had egg drop soup for lunch today..."
Zhuang Zhixi felt wronged: "This doesn't work either. I'm suffering."
He really loves egg soup, but today, he absolutely can't have it.
But he can't handle anything yellow.
nausea!
"It's not easy for you either."
"Who says it's not?"
Zhuang Zhixi was spreading the news at the health center, and other places were no less active. After all, such earth-shaking things were the first time had seen them, so they definitely everyone had to share them with good friends.
In the kitchen, Chef Li and Yang Lixin were describing the incident with their hands and feet gesticulating, focusing on the huge melee at that time and the golden warriors!
And in the workshops... In short, it's very lively everywhere. Even the New Year's Day a few days ago wasn't so lively.
But everyone still had a good understanding of each other, and the final remarks were almost all: I have lived for so many years and have never seen anything like this.
Without exception.
Zhuang Zhixi is the same.
During this morning, the topic spread from one person to ten people, from ten to a hundred, and in the factory of tens of thousands of people, everyone knew about it within this morning.
To the extent that Zhuang Zhixi received several groups of small leaders who came to ask questions. After all, the workshop was very busy, and the small leaders could not go to the workshop to ask people. But the infirmary was different. It was not that busy. Zhuang Zhixi wanted to catch up on his sleep?
Sorry, don't think about it, it's impossible.
He is just like the doorman at Lao Mo's Western Restaurant, always serving guests.
Zhuang Zhixi had no time to rest, and Mingmei was the same. Mingmei arrived at work on time, panting and looking bad, so she was inevitably asked about it.
A few older ladies joked, "You young man, you really don't know how to take it easy."
This is ambiguous.
But Mingmei didn't hear it. She didn't even listen carefully. She hurriedly told everyone: "You don't know, in our yard yesterday... I didn't sleep much all night... They fell into the manure pit with a bang..."
Mingmei was so excited that she danced with joy.
It's not that my sister has never seen the world, but that she has rarely seen the world.
Didn't you see that all the big sisters in their office were stunned?
"Oh my God, Xiao Wang, why don't you switch shifts with Mingmei today? Mingmei, don't drive, don't leave, and tell us in detail..."
“Yes, yes, yes!”
"Ah, I don't want to leave. I want to listen, too. Tell me tomorrow after you finish listening. No, tell me after get off work. I can't wait until tomorrow..."
"Okay, okay, okay."
Everyone has a curious mind.
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this. There was no doubt that this news would continue to spread. Not to mention their own city, in a few days, Tianjin would know about it. After a while, it might spread even further...
Mingmei thought to herself, "I have to get off work early today and go back to my parents' house. It's impossible for such big news to be known to everyone else. My parents haven't heard about it yet. How can that be possible?" Mingmei felt that she had to pass on this news and couldn't let it fall behind.
Well, that's settled.
Ming, a gossipy beauty.
On that day, many people who were involved in the matter passed on the news. Zhao Guihua spent the whole morning arguing about it and finally figured it out. The Su family had to compensate his family for one dollar for the salted fish.
The price of fish has dropped a bit after the Chinese New Year. After all, a pound of meat is much more valuable than a fish. If it weren't for good luck, fewer people would buy fish than meat.
But Zhao Guihua's fish has been pickled, and salt also costs money, so it cannot be counted.
So in the end, a more appropriate amount of one dollar was settled, and Aunt Su paid the money while crying; Zhao Guihua got one dollar in compensation, and Aunt Zhou also got one dollar in compensation, half a roast chicken, and some peanuts. It was hard to say whether it was appropriate or not.
But since the public security comrades are here, the price is relatively suitable.
As for the other people, the Su family didn't acknowledge them. They were caught stealing things, and there was nothing they could do. But since she was covered in "gold", it couldn't be blamed entirely on their family. She cried miserably and fainted at one point, but in the end they forced everyone to let it go.
It doesn't count. It can still be done.
As for the fights among their families, just let it go.
Of course, everyone still needs to be educated. Fighting in public can have a very bad influence. However, considering that it was a first offense and the leader's motive was good, this matter was let go.
Besides these, they caught a thief, even though they only caught a child, but their motives were good, so they should be praised.
Zhao Guihua did not want to get involved in the subsequent matters. She planned to have a good rest. Fortunately, the old lady did not have to go to work. She slept soundly for the whole afternoon without having breakfast or lunch. When she woke up, she was really hungry, but she always felt that there was still a smell in the yard, so she could not eat much.
"There's no refreshing side dish in this house."
Liang Meifen didn't eat today, she didn't have much appetite. She didn't sleep, and after wandering in this smell for a whole day, she really couldn't eat. Although she wanted the peach cake, she didn't want to eat it, she wanted to secretly put it away.
As for eating, I can't eat.
She asked, "Mom, what should we cook tonight? Stew some cabbage or boil some radish strips?"
There are only a few winter vegetables, cabbage and radish.
Other varieties cannot be bought even if you have money, and they are not from the south.
Although it is actually spring now, it is still cold due to the late spring snap, and there are still not many varieties of vegetables.
Zhao Guihua: "Be a carrot!"
She was hungry and had no appetite, but Zhao Guihua suddenly remembered something and said, "Hey, we can make some kimchi."
Actually, spicy cabbage is also fine!
In fact, she is not very proud of this, but who can blame the fact that there are too few varieties of vegetables nowadays? Many people also use radishes to make pickles, but the taste is different from kimchi. If you want to eat something fresh and have more varieties, it is also very good to prepare it.
Zhao Guihua became more excited when she thought about it. She said, "You know what, it's really possible to make some kimchi and spicy cabbage."
Priscilla Leung: “???” What is that?
Zhao Guihua didn't explain anything, she just said, "Steam some steamed bread with 200g of flour and make some shredded radish soup tonight. I'm going to the toilet."
She stood up, but just as she reached the door, she stopped and said with great difficulty, "Is the toilet clean?"
Liang Meifen nodded: "When I went there this afternoon, everything had been cleaned up. I heard that the excrement collector Bao was so angry that he cursed for twenty minutes."
They were so noisy that the whole place was a mess, and they had to ask the old man Bao to clean up after them. It was really too much.
But this matter had nothing to do with Zhao Guihua. She rolled up her sleeves and went out. Well, the strong smell was still there when she came out. It was unknown how long it would take for the smell to dissipate. At this time, Zhao Guihua was once again grateful that it was a cold day. If it was summer, she couldn't imagine what would happen.
She thought about it and decided that if it was summer, she would have to be shameless and find a relative to stay with her.
People absolutely cannot stay here.
She shook her head and left the yard. As soon as she came out of the toilet, she saw several people pointing and talking around the toilet. Zhao Guihua's heart skipped a beat and she quickly asked, "What's going on in the toilet?"
Damn it, someone else wouldn't fall down again.
Zhao Guihua felt that she probably had that, that...what was it called?
Is it a foreign language?
What is P, what is D, and what is T.
Anyway, I have a problem where I get a jolt whenever I hear the word toilet.
Zhao Guihua asked very cautiously, and one of the aunts said, "It's okay. I just pointed out to a few old sisters and told them which toilet the incident happened last night."
Several other old sisters said regretfully: "We live far away, we didn't hear anything last night, and we missed this wave."
Zhao Guihua: “…”
She opened her eyes wide in surprise, and once again silently sighed in her heart that she was indeed not the most awesome old lady on this street.
This mentality is not okay!
She quietly went into the bathroom, finished quickly and came out, and saw several people still pointing and talking in the bathroom. Zhao Guihua: "..."
You are really energetic and not afraid of the smell.
But... Zhao Guihua saw a familiar face. Who is this? Isn't this the senior lady who sells black dog blood, engages in feudal superstition and speculation? Zhao Guihua rolled her eyes and smiled. She was just thinking about getting to know the old lady.
She didn't care about the stench at this time, and took the initiative to move forward and said, "You guys are not very lively here, do you want to go to our yard and take a look? I will take you to see where the homes of the parties involved are?"
"Ah, is this okay?"
"That's great!"
Several old ladies deeply felt that they had met like-minded friends. Look, this proposal is so exciting.
Zhao Guihua waved her hand and said, "Follow me!"
She led a few people into the yard and said like a tour guide, "This is our yard, a yard with two entrances. They all live in the front yard and are together. Look, this family is the family involved. Look, this family over here is another family involved..."
She continued with her finger: "Look, this is the third person involved. They are the people from three families who fell into the pit. There are four families in our front yard, but only my family was spared. Thank God."
"Oh My God."
"Oh, they really have something here."
Zhao Guihua: "What are your names, sisters?"
"My name is Lao Fang Sao."
"I'm from the back street, my name is A-Lian, some people call me Aunt Lian, and the older sisters all call me A-Lian."
This A-Lian is the holder of black dog blood.
Several people were introducing themselves to each other when Jiang Lu came out. It wasn't a coincidence. It was because Mrs. Zhou Li heard some noise in the yard and didn't know what it was, so she asked her daughter-in-law to come out and check what was going on.
This time when I came out, I met these people.
Aunt Jiang Lu was so panicked that she was stunned.
Zhao Guihua took the initiative to say, "Xiao Jiang, these are some of my old sisters. We heard about what's going on here and came to see what's going on."
The corner of Jiang Lu's mouth twitched: "..."
Are you human? Zhao Guihua: "Just do your thing."
Jiang Lu wanted to say something, but he felt that Zhao Guihua was not someone who could be messed with. He looked at Aunt Lian again, hesitated for a moment, and turned away.
She'd better not mess with these old women.
In order to avoid having her scandal exposed, she was still hoping to have a child.
Aunt Lian also recognized Jiang Lu, but she was a businessman, so she didn't care about that. Anyway, no one could expose her cards. She didn't care. She said, "Oh, you know what, this yard still smells good now."
"Of course. Is there any need to tell me that? I haven't eaten for the whole day." Zhao Guihua quickly became friends with the old ladies.
Everyone was quite sympathetic, but Aunt Lian said happily: "Actually, it's good to have something like this. Think about it, if we don't eat, won't we save a meal?"
Others: “???????”
What are you talking about? If people don't eat, they will starve to death.
This can't be saved that way.
Aunt Lian sighed: "Why don't we have such a thing in our yard?"
Zhao Guihua: "...No one wants to have this kind of thing."
Aunt Lian: "Nonsense, I just want it."
She really thought that this kind of taste was also very good. A few aunts looked at the excitement again, and then said goodbye to Zhao Guihua, but they soon became old friends. So, sometimes friendship is such a strange thing, it may be possible to get together in minutes.
When Zhuang Zhixi came back from get off work, he happened to see these people leaving. Aunt Lian looked at Zhuang Zhixi's face and said, "Your boy has a really good face."
Another middle-aged woman quickly pulled her back, asking how could she promote feudal superstition in public?
That won't do.
However, Zhuang Zhixi acted as if he hadn't reacted at all, and said with a smile: "People have praised me for my good looks since I was a child."
He was good at talking, and he immediately changed the topic from feudal superstition to praising his appearance. Several old ladies nodded, thinking that this young man was really a good person. His mother was a good person, and the young man was also a good person.
"Old Zhao, this is your son, right? Is your son married?"
Zhao Guihua: "Yes, I got married last year."
Everyone sighed, this is too early to marry, they have lost another "source", these aunts, they know all about young men and women. It's not in vain to introduce a partner.
There should always be courtesy.
What a pity.
Zhao Guihua sent them out and went home with her son. Zhuang Zhixi asked curiously, "Who are these?"
Zhao Guihua: "We just met. Did you see Aunt Lian? She's the one who said you have a good face. She's a feudal superstitious person, and it was her that Jiang Lu went to when she was infertile." She said in a low voice.
Zhuang Zhixi touched his chin and said, "Then she has some ability."
Zhao Guihua: “…”
She rolled her eyes: "To praise you means you are capable, you are really good."
Zhuang Zhixi: "What about mom? Why are you suddenly associating with them? You don't know her, right?"
It's not possible that he suddenly made a few new friends. It's possible at other times, but it's not possible in today's environment.
Zhao Guihua continued to mutter, "Aunt Lian has a way to get the cloth strips. When I get to know her a little better and gain her trust, I will buy some from her and make clothes for you."
If you buy it rashly, the other party will definitely not sell it to you. Even if you are a speculator, you still have to consider who the buyer is!
This is untrustworthy, so people won't do it.
Zhuang Zhixi was shocked: "Mom, our family has saved so much that we can't buy fabric to make clothes? We have to use strips of cloth to make clothes?"
It turns out that no one can be more frugal than his mother.
Zhao Guihua: "...Just shut up. It's rare to find good things that don't require a ticket and are cheap."
She snorted and walked in.
Zhuang Zhixi: "...As expected, my mother is still my mother! She is not an ordinary person."
It was time to get off work and everyone went home one after another. However, among the people involved last night, only Wang Xiangxiu went to work. She had a whole family to support and she couldn't afford to delay for even a single day. That was money and she couldn't afford to lose it.
However, Wang Xiangxiu had a very uncomfortable day.
She still likes to go to work on weekdays. After all, she is not bad looking and can be called a pretty widow. Many people may not want to marry her. But there are many people who are courting her. She can more or less take advantage of it, so she never gets tired of it.
But today, she was surrounded as well, but the feeling was completely different.
She was feeling particularly distressed. Everyone who came to see her today couldn't help but ask what happened last night. About her son being a thief, about falling into a manure pit, and about the bravery of the Bai family father and son...
Anyway, Wang Xiangxiu doesn't like any topic.
What’s even more infuriating is that there was an old woman who didn’t get along with her. She made egg soup for lunch and asked her, “What does this look like to you?”
These people were fine, they just talked about it, they hadn't experienced the tragedy last night, so it naturally didn't affect their eating and drinking. But she couldn't do that, she retched several times this afternoon. People who didn't know would think she was pregnant.
This is very annoying.
She was already very unhappy, and the people in their courtyard were still unaware of the situation. She spoke in great detail, as if she was really afraid that others didn't know. As a result, she was restless all day. Some people came over to watch the fun, and some came over to talk to her.
If she didn't have to pay compensation for hitting someone, she really wanted to slap those who came to watch the fun.
Bastard, big bastard!
And my son, you really must not steal anymore.
Wang Xiangxiu went home exhausted. As soon as she entered the alley, she could smell the faint smell. It became more obvious when she got to the yard. It hadn't dissipated all day. She pushed open the door and went home. At this time, Aunt Su was lying on the bed, not saying a word.
Wang Xiangxiu said softly: "Mom, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Aunt Su still didn't say anything. Just when Wang Xiangxiu began to worry, she finally spoke: "Xiu'er, you should remarry."
Wang Xiangxiu was stunned, and then immediately said seriously and firmly: "Mom, what are you talking about? I'm not that kind of person. If I leave, what will you do? How cruel can I be to do this?"
Aunt Su said softly, "But we are always a burden to you. If it weren't for us, you could find a good man and live a good life with your conditions. It's hard for you to take care of us. You should remarry. If you remarry, I will take care of the three children. Don't worry, I will still let them call you mom, and you will still be the daughter-in-law of our Su family. No, you are my daughter. Even if I starve to death or die of exhaustion, I will still raise the children."
A tear rolled down from the corner of her eye.
"They don't eat well, so they keep stealing. Sooner or later, they will get into big trouble. I can't watch things go on like this. I can't let them do this anymore. It wasn't a big deal when they were young, but now they are older. If they are caught, it will be a big deal. It will also be bad for our family. How can they find wives when they grow up? So I thought, if I work harder and make sure they eat better, they won't covet other people's things. Even if I have to sell my blood, I have to make sure they live a good life."
Wang Xiangxiu immediately held her mother-in-law's hand and said, "No, Mom, I will never remarry. I am a member of the Su family in life and a ghost of the Su family in death. I, Wang Xiangxiu, will never leave. Children are my life. I will make money, and I will definitely let you live a good life."
She sighed and said, "If I leave, you will be finished. Mom, what money can you fight for? Your health is not good, do you want to let yourself die? Xiao Su is good to me, and you are good to me too. I am a member of the Su family. I will raise the children and take care of you in your old age. Please don't let me go. I am not a heartless person. I will not leave this family. We are a family for life."
Aunt Su: “But…”
"No buts, listen to me, didn't you say that I'm the one who makes the decisions in this family? Now that I've made my decision, don't object."
Aunt Su sighed heavily and said, "You are a good child, but unfortunately you have a miserable life. You can only wait until the children grow up. Then your life will be better. You will definitely have an easier life than me. What about your three sons?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiangxiu also smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, I have three sons. How can I not take care of them?"
Aunt Su blinked and said, "Then... you can take some time off tomorrow and call your two sisters-in-law back. Tell them that I'm sick and ask them to come back to see me. They won't come empty-handed..."
Wang Xiangxiu: "Okay."
Aunt Su: "Please make it sound more serious."
Wang Xiangxiu: “I know that.”
Wang Xiangxiu took a deep breath and said, "Then I'll go cook."
Aunt Su: "Let me do it."
Wang Xiangxiu: "It's okay, I'll come, I'll get some water."
She went to the yard to busy herself. Aunt Su looked at her and smiled smugly.
As long as this man falls into her hands, he will be no match for her!
She just paid two dollars today. If she doesn't force her daughter-in-law, how can she fight for the betterment of the family? Aunt Su was proud in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. Her family was not like the Zhou family, so she couldn't be tough.
She couldn't order her daughter-in-law around like Zhou Li did, because if they got out of touch, it would be all over.
However, it is better for her to retreat now.
Wang Xiangxiu is not smart enough.
She smiled secretly, feeling very proud of herself.
Although Wang Xiangxiu is a slutty woman who doesn't keep her husband's chastity, she can bring a lot of benefits to the family. The child is still young, and he needs her. This is good. When the child grows up, I'll see if she kicks out this stinky woman cheated on her son.
Aunt Su stood up and went out to the cellar to get some vegetables. Wang Xiangxiu turned around and said, "Mom, if you're not feeling well, why don't you lie down for a while?"
Aunt Su: "I've always had this condition, haven't I? It's nothing, I'm used to it. Let's make some cabbage soup tonight."
Wang Xiangxiu: "Okay."
Mingmei rode her bike into the house and saw that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law seemed to be getting along well. She also called out in a clear voice, "Mom, I'm back!"
Zhuang Zhixi came out first and said, "Wife, why didn't you call me?"
He also competed for favor.
Mingmei said angrily: "I don't know if you have finished get off work or not. If I knew you got home first, I would definitely call you."
Zhuang Zhixi laughed and walked up to him and said, "Are you tired? You didn't get any rest today, did you?"
Mingmei nodded: "Yeah, I didn't rest at all. I even went back to my mother's house after get off work."
She's eager to spread first-hand gossip.
"Go to bed early today and get some good sleep. It's very tiring to stay awake all night."
Mingmei nodded: "I know."
The young couple walked in together. Wang Xiangxiu looked at them being so affectionate with jealous eyes. Zhuang Zhixi had been gossiping about their family today, not feeling guilty at all. But when he saw her, he acted as if he didn't see anything. What a bastard!
Are you blind? That Mingmei, besides having a better family, looking better, and being younger, what else does she have? Can she give birth to a son with Wang Xiangxiu? Wang Xiangxiu was furious and cursed in a low voice: "Bitch!"
Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei didn't hear it. They walked in together. Mingmei lazily pulled over a chair and said, "Mom, I'm so tired today."
Zhao Guihua understands her daughter-in-law very well: "You don't like to work if you're not tired."
Mingmei: “…”
She smiled childishly and said, "You got it right."
I won't feel embarrassed at all.
If it was a normal mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship, Mingmei might still feel a little embarrassed, but not now. Because she knew that her mother-in-law was not the kind of person who would care about such trivial matters. She was naturally very casual.
Mingmei lay on the table and said, "I went to my parents' house today. I wanted to have a meal before coming back, but they made sweet potato rice! I ran away immediately."
"puff!"
Mingmei: "It's so disgusting for me to watch, I wonder what they will feel after eating it."
Zhuang Zhixi: "Maybe, I like it more."
Several people looked at Zhuang Zhixi.
Zhuang Zhixi said confidently: "Who knows if they will like the new taste."
Mingmei complained: "No one will fall in love with you, so stop talking nonsense."
Zhuang Zhixi shrugged. He was just offering a possibility, why didn't you believe him?
Zhao Guihua: "I plan to buy a bicycle tomorrow."
Zhuang Zhixi nodded: "Sure, then our family will have two cars, which is great."
Zhao Guihua: "After buying the bicycle, I plan to go fishing in the mountains."
Zhuang Zhixi: "Go now?"
He was a little surprised.
Zhao Guihua: "Everyone is paying attention to gossip now, who will pay attention to me? I am nothing special in this matter. It's a good opportunity to catch some fish while other things are hot, and no one will notice me. We can eat it at home."
This time she didn't think about selling it.
Although if she had good skills, she would definitely be able to catch a lot of fish to sell, but she didn't have the skills. Besides, after the Chinese New Year, the market wasn't that good. And the risk was bigger, so she didn't do it. Anyway, it was good to eat at home, so she might as well keep it for herself.
"I'll bring some steamed bread for lunch tomorrow, Mei-Fen Liang, you stay home and cook for the kids."
Priscilla Leung: “Okay.”
Zhao Guihua: "If anyone asks me, just say I ran away because I couldn't stand the stink."
"That's a good excuse!"
Zhao Guihua said sadly: "What excuse? I am telling the truth. I really can't stand it!"
Big sigh! (End of this chapter)
