Of course, it was not just Zhuang Zhixi himself, but others as well. People of this era were relatively simple. They lived a hard life for a few cents. But in terms of work attitude, they were full of vigor and vitality.
However, Zhuang Zhixi still declined the job of learning how to project movies.
His refusal was well-founded. He had to help Old Huang make props and was too busy to do that.
Director Song also agreed to this matter. After all, in his opinion, everyone was not willing to partner with Lao Huang, but they were willing to learn how to project movies. So it was not difficult to find people to project movies, but it was not easy for Lao Huang.
Zhuang Zhixi was too busy to greet him in advance, so it didn't delay his work.
That's why Director Song didn't care.
Zhuang Zhixi declined the offer, and didn't care who would take over. Instead, he followed Lao Huang to make props and draw blackboards. Why was Lao Huang busier? In addition to making props and backgrounds for skits, he also had to draw blackboards for the factory.
Of course, their publicity department doesn't have only one person who can do it, there are others who can do it, but their drawing skills are not as good as Lao Huang. In addition, they are short of manpower, and they have to support an evening party, one person has to perform several programs, and everyone is busy rehearsing.
However, Lao Huang was reserved and unwilling to perform, so all the logistical matters fell on him.
Zhuang Zhixi was working with Old Huang, and he was quite comfortable in his own skin. He was in a good mood, but of course some people were not, like Xiao Xu who was in the hospital. He was not in a good mood. He saw that the person who was learning to show movies with him was replaced by Lao Cao from their department, and he felt uncomfortable.
He valued his skills the most, fearing that someone would learn from him and replace him. You know, he had a lot of benefits from showing movies in the countryside. Although no one talked about this topic openly, everyone knew it.
This opportunity is rare, so Lao Cao is not polite. He is different from Zhuang Zhixi. Zhuang Zhixi is not a formal employee of the Propaganda Department, but Lao Cao is.
Xiao Xu asked unnaturally, "Why did you get replaced? Didn't the director ask Xiaozhuang to come and learn from me? How can someone be replaced at this time? I'm afraid it's inappropriate. Giving up halfway through doing things like this doesn't have the spirit of hard work and progress of young people at all. Besides, Brother Cao, don't you have your own job? It's not good to delay it, right?"
Lao Cao said with a half-smile, "Xiao Zhuang still has to work with Lao Huang, so he doesn't have time to run back and forth here. It just so happens that the director thought I had some basics and would learn faster, so he transferred me here. What? Are you so unhappy?"
Don't think he knows nothing. He does know that Xiaozhuang is not willing to learn from Xiaoxu.
Their director doesn't care about those trivial matters, but they are all in the same department and know each other well. Xiao Xu is a person who usually likes to take advantage of others and ask for bribes for the slightest thing, and they know everything about it.
It's easy to imagine that he must be using this incident to take control of Xiaozhuang.
Xiaozhuang is just a helper and doesn't expect anything from you, Xiaoxu. It would be strange if others would be willing to deal with him. He just gave up immediately.
It just so happened that he took the opportunity to take this job. He had long been interested in Xiao Xu's job because it was lucrative. He took the opportunity to get involved and said, "The director arranged for me to come here. You don't disagree, do you? You don't understand the overall situation, do you? Do you still regard these things as your own private property?"
Xiao Xu was startled. This might be what Lao Cao said. He immediately said, "That's definitely not the case."
After a pause, he almost gritted his teeth and said, "This is not easy. I learn slowly when I am old..."
Lao Cao: "I learned some of it before. Have you forgotten? I have the basics."
He didn't give Xiao Xu any chance at all, and Xiao Xu had no chance of doing anything tricky with him.
The two of them had their own thoughts. Xiao Xu couldn't help but hate Zhuang Zhixi a little. If Zhuang Zhixi hadn't given up, how could Lao Cao have had the opportunity to intervene? He was very annoyed. In addition to facing Lao Cao, his plan was not implemented. He originally wanted to step on Zhuang Zhixi to show his face.
Anyway, they are not from the same department. If they offend each other, then so be it. The worst that can happen is that we will just stop associating with each other.
He is not afraid of the fees charged by an infirmary.
Unexpectedly, Zhuang Zhixi actually withdrew. His face was gloomy, but he still dealt with Lao Cao. Lao Cao had learned some movie projection in his early years. His master at that time was his father. In order to let him in, his father had to do some tricks. In this way, Lao Cao accidentally fell into the trap. Although he learned some, he didn't use him. In the end, it was Xiao Xu who took over.
So the two people have an "old grudge", and it is impossible for him to step on Lao Cao.
Lao Cao had been schemed against by his father before, so he must be extra careful and experienced, so some small tricks could not be hidden from him at all.
Xiao Xu was not happy, but Lao Cao felt happy.
In fact, Director Song wanted to arrange Lao Cao to come over at the beginning, after all, he had experience! But considering that their relationship was not very good, and Xiao Xu strongly recommended Zhuang Zhixi, he used Zhuang Zhixi. But plans could not change quickly, Zhuang Zhixi was too busy, so he simply replaced him with Lao Cao.
Anyway, even if there are conflicts, we cannot fight, and we always have to consider the overall situation.
As a leader, you don't care about those things.
As long as the work can be handled well, nothing else matters to him.
Zhuang Zhixi didn't know about Xiao Xu's situation, but even if he didn't know, he could probably guess a thing or two. When he came here to learn things, this guy's performance showed that he was a real villain.
It would be strange if such a person did not bear grudges.
He just needs to know what's going on. Anyway, this guy can't really do anything to him openly. He can only do some tricks. But they are not in the same department, so what is he afraid of? Besides, even if they are in the same department, it's actually nothing.
After all, now is not the time for anyone to do whatever they want.
Zhuang Zhixi is a smart man, but his life experience is far less than that of Lan Sihai.
However, since he didn't have to learn how to project movies, Zhuang Zhixi went home at a normal time after get off work. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw that there were a lot of people in the yard.
Zhuang Zhixi: "Oh, what happened?"
He asked curiously, and his mother Zhao Guihua whispered: "Mr. Lan wants to go on a blind date, everyone is curious."
Aunt Wang went to pick someone up, and the others left the yard one after another, their eyes glued to the Lan family's gate.
Zhuang Zhixi: “…”
He smiled and said, "It's just a blind date, there's nothing to be curious about."
That being said, his neck was stretched out long, clearly there to watch the fun.
Zhao Guihua glanced at him and thought to herself that this son was really unrealistic. However, she also looked around with great interest. In fact, the person had not arrived yet, but it did not hinder their gossip.
Aunt Su next door asked curiously, "What kind of person is this? What does she look like? Where is she from? From the countryside? Is she a widower or divorced? Is she a widower? How many wives have died?"
Look how dirty this person's heart is. He wishes others would be the worst.
Zhuang Zhixi glanced at Aunt Su with a half-smile, cursing the old woman in his heart, and said, "Aunt Su, you guessed wrong. That person is much better than you. He is a city dweller and has a job."
Aunt Su's face immediately turned darker and looked a little ugly.
She felt a little unhappy. In fact, she was of the same generation as Zhao Guihua. She was a few years older than Zhao Guihua, but much younger than old man Lan Sihai. She thought that with another old man in the yard, she would have another admirer. But unexpectedly, this man was completely unmoved. He was also very rude to her, which made Aunt Su very unhappy. She wondered if this man wanted... what did he want?
Yes, playing hard to get!
She deeply suspected that the old man was in love with her, so he was deliberately being cold to her to attract her attention.
After all, if you don't do this, how can you get her love? After all, there are some rumors about her and Old Man Bai. It's not so easy to dig a corner. Aunt Su is very confident about her popularity with men.
She is still young, and although her appearance is not very advantageous, she has conquered many men with her personality.
It wouldn't be surprising if a man fell in love with her.
Just as she was thinking about it, Aunt Wang led another older woman in. She looked to be in her fifties, wearing clean clothes that were washed to a bleached white. Her face was cold and her hair had some silver strands, but it was combed meticulously.
How to say it?
You can tell at first glance that this person is not a gentle and amiable old lady. Without even saying a word, you can tell at first glance that she is a very serious person.
Aunt Wang introduced her: "We have a two-entry courtyard. Uncle Lan just moved in this year and lives in the room between the front and back yards. This house was allocated to him by the factory. Although it is not big, it is very clean and has all the household items. You see, the windows and glass have been replaced with new ones, and the house has been repainted. It feels like a new house as soon as you enter the door."
These days, houses are very important. No matter what, this matter must be made clear.
The woman nodded to show that she understood.
Aunt Wang: "Come, this is the room, Uncle Lan..."
Lan Sihai came out immediately. He had changed his clothes after coming back from get off work. He wore a white shirt, gray trousers, and a watch. His hair had been washed and looked very fresh.
Aunt Wang was not too surprised because Uncle Lan was like that and usually looked very serious.
Very elegant and decent.
She said, "Come, let me introduce you. This is Uncle Lan Sihai, and this is Luo Xiaohe."
Lan Sihai immediately extended his hand: "Hello."
Luo Xiaohe was also very polite and shook hands with him and greeted him.
The three of them walked in. The people in the yard really wanted to block Lan Sihai's door to watch the fun, but... after all, they were adults, so it was too embarrassing. But this did not include one person... Mingmei.
Mingmei actually followed Aunt Wang and Luo Xiaohe in. She handed the bicycle directly to Zhuang Zhixi, then immediately came forward and leaned against the wall to eavesdrop.
Well, eavesdropping in broad daylight.
Neighbors: “…”
Mingmei doesn't care what others think, this is her grandfather.
Zhuang Zhixi parked his bike and rushed over, and he and Mingmei stuck to the wall like two big geckos. Everyone's mouth twitched, feeling that this was not good, but they couldn't tell what was wrong.
After all, they are family.
Zhao Guihua was also happily sitting at the door, watching the fun over here.
Not to mention her, everyone else is like this. The people in the courtyard are particularly active today.
Everyone wants to see whether this blind date can succeed.
They originally thought that they would be the first to eat Aunt Su and Old Man Bai's wedding candy, or at least Wang Xiangxiu and Bai Fendou. Unexpectedly, there was no progress on either side, and instead, Old Man Lan started going on blind dates.
This is the case of the latecomer taking the lead.
The Bai family father and son are such cowards and useless!
Inside the room, Aunt Wang, as a senior matchmaker, introduced the two parties very conscientiously. In fact, both parties knew some specific situations of each other. Nowadays, blind dates require knowing everything before meeting.
Of course, there are some who fool people, but as a matchmaker with integrity, Aunt Wang is definitely particular. She won't do anything that fools people.
She said, "This uncle Lan Sihai is from Jinling. He was transferred to our Qianjin Machinery Factory this year as a master craftsman. He is now rehired and specializes in training apprentices. He plans to settle down in Sijiucheng in the future. He has a son and a daughter. The son is in Jinling and the daughter is in Sijiucheng. But they don't have much contact. Mingmei, the young daughter-in-law of the old man in our courtyard, is the granddaughter of the old man. Having a relative here actually means more care."
After introducing this side, she introduced Luo Xiaohe and said, "This is Comrade Luo Xiaohe. In addition to her mother, she also has her younger brother and sister-in-law. She has never been married, but she has been engaged. Her mother now lives with her younger brother and sister-in-law."
Both parties already knew this. After all, they had already inquired about it a long time ago. Now they are just stating it formally.
Aunt Wang smiled and said, "In fact, everyone knows some of the background. We are not young girls or boys, so just talk about it directly. How does the saying go? The matchmaker leads the way, but it is up to the individual to cultivate. Do you want to get to know each other?"
Lan Sihai coughed and said, "Since we are all going on a blind date, I think I should tell you about my situation in detail."
Luo Xiaohe nodded: "You go ahead."
Lan Sihai: "I am from Suzhou. When I was six or seven years old, my family members all died, so I followed the elders in the village to Shanghai to make a living. I worked as an apprentice in a gold shop and worked there for decades. After liberation, my boss fled to Hong Kong, but I stayed. Because I was a master chef, I was assigned to a factory in Jinling. So we moved to Jinling. My wife and I have three children, but my eldest son died of illness when he was a child, leaving only a son and a daughter. After my wife passed away, I got married several more times. The second one died unexpectedly, the third one died of illness, and the fourth one was divorced. If you think I'm okay, then I'll be the fifth one."
Luo Xiaohe's mouth twitched. In fact, she knew all this. When her younger brother was hospitalized, he was in the same ward with Aunt Su, Aunt Zhou, Bai Fendou and others. They had made up stories about Lan Sihai, so the Luo siblings knew everything.
They couldn't just listen to what these people said about what happened, but they definitely knew the general idea.
However, no one should say anything about anyone else. Lan Sihai has a bad reputation in this regard, and Luo Xiaohe is not much better. She got pregnant before marriage, lost her child and can no longer have children. In fact, in the eyes of many people, this is even more outrageous.
Yes, life is fucked up like that.
She did nothing wrong, but everyone looked down on her.
Luo Xiaohe: "You should know my situation, right? I can't have children."
Lan Sihai smiled and said, "You can have children, but it has nothing to do with me. I am already this old."
He said honestly, "Since we can sit here and meet, it means that we know each other a little bit and are willing to give it a try. Since this is a blind date, I won't hide it from you. We have some things to say in advance. I am a selfish person. I even let my children stay away from me. I like to smoke and drink. I pay attention to eating and drinking well and living comfortably. I am not the kind of person who will cut back on myself, nor am I the kind of person who wants someone to take care of me. Don't even think about taking care of my own children."
Luo Xiaohe asked seriously: "When you drink, will you get drunk and hit people?"
Lan Sihai: "I can't do that. When I drink, I only drink one or two ounces. The taste of drinking is about savoring it, not drinking like a cow."
Aunt Wang: “…”
I suspect you are implying something, although I have no evidence. How can our generosity be regarded as drinking like a cow?
Lan Sihai: "As for getting drunk and beating people up, I'm not that bad. Although I'm a little selfish, I definitely wouldn't do such a thing. A grown man beating a woman is too mean. If I were that kind of person, the machinery factory wouldn't have hired me. It's too shameful."
Luo Xiaohe felt a little relieved.
She then asked, "Then your granddaughter lives in the same courtyard with us. Will she look down on me and come to pick a fight with me?"
She was so old, and she was no longer a young girl who was looking forward to love, so she naturally asked about real topics. After all, if you said you fell in love with him at first sight, wouldn't that be a big joke? It was impossible.
We all have life experience, so naturally we have to ask clearly.
Lan Sihai waved his hand: "That's even more impossible. She doesn't have the time to look for you. You'll know in the future that she has a very good personality. Although she's in her twenties, she's still quite naive. She looks soft and tender, but she's straightforward. She's not the kind of person who has ulterior motives. If you don't scheme against her, she won't do anything to you. But if you do, she'll still be a bit stubborn."
Ming·Eavesdropping·Mei pointed at herself and pouted her lips, looking a little more childish. Zhuang Zhixi smiled and rubbed her head. The two continued to eavesdrop.
Lan Sihai also spoke up at this time: "I don't like my life to be disturbed. My children can't do it, and neither can others. I know you have a mother. I wonder what your plan is?"
Luo Xiaohe's tone became colder: "She will live with my brother and sister, and will not disturb us."
After a pause, she said very seriously: "I have worked hard for my family for half my life. Now I want to live for myself."
Lan Sihai laughed: "You don't say one thing and do another, do you?"
Luo Xiaohe: “No!”
Both of them are straightforward people. They are very clear about their feelings and think that each other is pretty good.
Lan Sihai doesn't like those clingy and indecisive personalities. Although Luo Xiaohe is a little bit tough, she is not a weak woman. She can take good care of the family. Similarly, Luo Xiaohe has a good impression of Lan Sihai. He is not the sloppy old man in her impression. Instead, he is very energetic. It can be seen that he lives a good life and is very straightforward.
No matter what she is like in her daily life, she is happy to meet a straightforward person during a blind date. Whether it is suitable or not, she will make it very clear. If they are clear with each other, there will be no embarrassment.
Compared to such people, although it is direct and makes people feel uncomfortable, it is very suitable for her.
As the matchmaker, Aunt Wang felt it was weird when the two of them were communicating with each other. It really was weird.
because:……
Lan Sihai: "I am much older than you. When we are together, I am actually taking advantage. But I will also give you protection. When I die, I will give you this house. Don't worry, my son and daughter will never come to take it away. If we can be together, I will write you a document to give you some protection. But don't kill me in advance for the house."
Luo Xiaohe's mouth twitched and she said, "You think too much. Murder is against the law."
She said: "It's not a big deal. It's not easy for me to find a suitable one. But I have to tell you that I will control the people from my mother's side so that they don't make trouble and disturb my life. You have to control your relatives too... I don't want anyone to find fault with me. If that's the case, I might as well not get married. Anyway, I'm in my mother's side and my mother is the same."
Lan Sihai: "I can guarantee this. A few little bastards won't dare to cause trouble."
"That's good."
Lan Sihai: "Although you said that age has nothing to do with it, I am indeed old. If I am not in good health in a few years, we can pay for someone to help me out. Everyone has a few poor relatives, and it won't be too tiring to find someone like that to help take care of you. I won't put the burden of life on you."
I have to say that what Lan Sihai said really hit the nail on the head. No matter what the situation will be like at that time, it is very comforting to listen to it now.
It's not the kind of talk that sounds soothing, but the kind that is very clear about the future plans and makes people feel at ease.
Luo Xiaohe: "You are a very good person."
Luo Xiaohe: "What a coincidence, me too. We are both the same, so let's not criticize each other."
The two sides looked at each other and confirmed that they were both people who were not easy to mess with.
Lan Sihai: "I heard that you became interested in the story when you heard others making up stories about me in the hospital. Why? Wouldn't most people stay away from such people?"
Luo Xiaohe: "It's obvious that those two gossipers are not good people. If they say bad things about someone, then they must be a good person. Besides, I don't have a good reputation myself."
Lan Sihai nodded and praised: "You are a straightforward person."
Luo Xiaohe: "I'm not pleasant to talk to either."
"Why do you need to please others? People don't live for others. Life is short, so you should live for yourself, so that your life will not be in vain. Otherwise, you won't be able to eat or drink well, and your life will be miserable. What's the point? Are you here to survive the disaster?"
Old man Lan Sihai has a lot to say.
Luo Xiaohe laughed and said, "You are right. I wasted a lot of time and felt depressed for a long time because I didn't think it through. Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading."
Lan Sihai smiled and said, "I haven't read many books, but even though I haven't read much, I have seen a lot. So I know more than most people. How does that saying go? Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. With a broad knowledge, one's horizons will be broadened."
Luo Xiaohe agreed: "That makes sense."
Her subsequent questions made sense, and it was obvious that she was someone who could chat with Lan Sihai. Lan Sihai: "By the way, do you like watching movies?"
Luo Xiaohe nodded sincerely: "I like it, but my family is tight on money, I don't watch much, I don't want to spend money, there are too many places to spend money."
Lan Sihai: "Then I'll invite you some other day. We can also go to Xiangshan in autumn to admire the maple leaves. I came here this year and I've only heard about it but never seen it."
Luo Xiaohe: "Hey, I've been there before. Although my life is boring, I sometimes find some fun when I'm bored. Fun that doesn't cost money..."
Lan Sihai: "That's right. If you have money, you can have fun in your own way. If you don't have money, you can have free views. They are both beautiful..."
The two of them started chatting.
This state is obviously much warmer than when they first met.
Aunt Wang: “…”
She had introduced many blind dates, and no matter they were older or younger, they were all somewhat reserved. She had never seen someone like this before. But it was obvious that these two people who were not easy to get along with were quite attracted to each other.
Didn't you see it? We are all discussing and having fun together.
It is really a bit redundant for Aunt Wang to sit here, but she can't just get up and leave. That would be inappropriate. She sits here like a sculpture.
Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei, who had been eavesdropping at the door for a while, looked at each other and finally pulled it down from the wall.
The two returned to their own door and approached Zhao Guihua. Mingmei pouted and said, "My grandfather must have chosen him."
Zhao Guihua: "Isn't this good?"
Although she didn't understand why she had to get married so many times, everyone has their own way of living. If you don't even understand yourself, don't try to judge others. Everyone has their own fun.
She said, "It's good for your grandpa to have someone to support him."
Mingmei said naturally: "I know, I just sighed, not that I am unhappy. My grandpa is looking for a companion, and no one in our family disagrees."
Zhao Guihua nodded. She really admired the Lan brothers and sisters when it came to Grandpa Lan's affairs. It was Mingmei's mother and uncle who really let Grandpa do what he wanted. And Grandpa Lan gave his house to his ex-wife. They didn't even raise any objections.
Now he has also promised that the house will be given to his new wife, but the Lan brothers and sisters still don't care.
You know, this is a house. Decades later, people were crazy about houses and banged their heads against the wall for houses. In fact, it is still the same now, and it is even worse. How many people have caused unrest in their homes and discord among brothers because of a house.
You have to know that this is a house in the old city, but the Lan brothers and sisters have the courage to do so.
Zhao Guihua thought about her previous life, when Aunt Zhou and Aunt Su messed up Grandpa Lan's blind date. This time... she looked at Aunt Su who was washing sweet potatoes next to her, pursed her lips and lowered her voice to Mingmei, "Tell your grandpa to be careful of Aunt Su and Aunt Zhou."
Mingmei looked over and nodded immediately.
In fact, Zhao Guihua was just giving a reminder, and she was not too worried. After all, this life was different from the last. In this life, Luo Xiaohe already knew about Aunt Su and Aunt Zhou's arrangement from the beginning. If she still believed it, she would have to be stupid.
Zhao Guihua herself did not expect that such a coincidence would happen.
But good things happen by chance, which always makes people happy.
Zhao Guihua seemed to be thinking about something, but Aunt Su spoke first. She said, "Oh, Uncle Lan has been on a blind date for quite a long time. I wonder how the blind date went, and whether it worked out?"
She hoped it wouldn't work out. If it didn't work out, she would train him and maybe he would be her own dog. Although the old man Bai was loyal, his salary was definitely not as high as that of the old man Lan. Zhou Qun stopped associating with Wang Xiangxiu, and their family was short of income.
She was looking forward to it, but it didn't work! She still wanted to be narrow a few days ago.
Why didn't she realize sooner that this old man Lan was rich?
"Xiaozhuang's wife, didn't you just go over and listen? How was it?"
Mingmei smiled and said, "Aunt Su, you are envious, right? Actually, you have such a good relationship with Uncle Bai, you can get the marriage certificate earlier. Why wait like this?"
The old man Bai just heard this when he walked in. He grinned with joy and gave Mingmei a thumbs up. This young wife of the banker was good at talking. She was really a good person.
Mingmei received a good person card and a thumbs up from the old man Bai, and her smile became even brighter. She said, "I see that you have such a deep relationship and are not young anymore, why do you have to care about the opinions of outsiders? Look at my grandfather who is so old and still wants to pursue a new life, you should also think about yourself. Otherwise, how pitiful Uncle Bai is, he is so infatuated, but he has always been alone and cannot be with you."
Zhuang Zhixi nodded: "That's right, Aunt Su, everyone in the factory knows that you and Uncle Bai have a good relationship, and everyone is happy to see it happen. This is not the old society anymore, and pursuing a new life is allowed."
Aunt Su: “…”
You are such a busybody. How can I use you to interfere in other people's affairs?
Is it necessary for you to persuade me with your bad mouths? She cursed in her heart, but said on the surface: "My child is still young. If the child knew about this, he would definitely not be happy. I can't not care about the child. Besides, my relationship with Brother Bai is innocent. It's not what you guys..." It's not the relationship you think.
However, she was interrupted by Zhuang Zhixi before she finished speaking. Zhuang Zhixi said seriously: "Aunt Su, if you say that, I will criticize you. You can't always let the children do whatever they want. The children are still young and don't know anything. You can't spoil them like this. How can adults let children lead by the nose? Children don't know anything. You adults should know. And if you get married, they will have a grandfather to help discipline them. Maybe it will be a good thing for them. Otherwise, the child will run around and steal things all day long, and he will be useless when he grows up. My words are a bit harsh, but you know, I mean well and I care about the children."
Aunt Su: “…”
Do I need your fucking concern?
Her face looked very ugly, but Zhuang Zhixi smiled and continued talking, she really didn't realize how annoying she was.
"It only takes a moment for a child to become a good child or a bad child. You don't have to let the child lead you by the rope. If you do that, where will you put Uncle Bai, who loves you so much? Uncle Bai has waited for you for more than 20 years. Can you bear to treat him like this? You are betraying a heart that loves you."
"That's right!" Mingmei echoed from the side.
Zhao Guihua watched the two people singing the same tune, then looked at Aunt Su's face that was about to burst with anger and Old Man Bai's eyes that were red with emotion. She lowered her head and tried hard not to laugh.
I have to say, this trick works really well for Aunt Su.
Zhao Guihua was trying not to laugh, but Old Man Bai was really moved. He said, "Sister Su, I really do love you from the bottom of my heart..."
Aunt Su: “…”
You just need to give me money, why do you still want an identity? Do you deserve it? She took a deep breath and said, "Brother Bai, I can't! My family is burdened too much, I can't drag you down. I can't drag down your Bai Fendou. If we get together, with such a huge pressure on your family, how can your Fendou find a partner?"
The shrewd and deceptive Aunt Su is online again.
However, she didn't expect that there were a few talkative people around her.
Mingmei's eyes were round, and she spoke sincerely, "What does that matter? Although I haven't been married for long, I know that Brother Bai Fendou loves Sister Su deeply. It's perfect. The old one of you can marry the old one, and the young one can marry the young one. The two families can become one... It's perfect."
Zhuang Zhixi nodded: "Yes, my wife, how come you are so smart? This can help two pairs of lovers get married."
Mingmei smiled and said, "I've long seen that they are truly in love."
Zhuang Zhixi: "Of course. Do you still remember the time when they fell into the manure pit? The Bai family father and son fought hard for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Su family and their children. They were not afraid of the disgust or hardship. They were wholeheartedly for the Su family. It was really touching. If this is not true love, it is unforgivable."
Mingmei: "Yes, and the time when Jin Lai stole something, Brother Bai Fendou kicked Brother Zhou Qun into the hospital for the sake of the child."
"Love, it's all love."
The couple sang in unison, just like they were performing a crosstalk.
Aunt Su felt that they were too hideous.
Wang Xiangxiu rode her bike into the yard and only heard this word about love. She was puzzled: "What are you doing...?"
Zhuang Zhixi's eyes fell on Wang Xiangxiu's bicycle, and he gave an ambiguous giggle and said, "Isn't this bicycle Fendou's? I told you so."
Wang Xiangxiu was very natural. She said, "I had to go shopping today. I was afraid I would be late, so I borrowed the car from Fendou. He is a very kind person and never makes a fuss with me."
"Of course."
Zhuang Zhixi smiled, his tone was more subtle.
Wang Xiangxiu looked at everyone hesitantly and felt that there were too many people in the yard, and they were looking at her with strange eyes.
She asked: "What's going on?"
Jiang Lu, who had been watching the fun, spoke up at this time and said, "Wang Xiangxiu, when are you and Bai Fendou going to get the marriage certificate?"
Wang Xiangxiu was stunned, and then immediately said, "What nonsense are you talking about? What about getting a marriage certificate? Fendou and I have a deep relationship like siblings, how can it be linked to getting a marriage certificate? You can't talk nonsense."
Jiang Lu: "Brother and sister? That's so funny, who would believe that?"
In the past, Jiang Lu disdained to participate in such topics. In her opinion, it was quite low-class. Only these idle gossipers were willing to gossip about other people's affairs. She was born in a cadre family, and it was very cheap to mix with these people.
But things have not been going well for the past six months, and all kinds of embarrassing things have happened one after another, so she has become more shameless. In addition, she particularly hates Wang Xiangxiu, and seeing her twisting and turning, she knows she has bad intentions. So, she wants to stab Wang Xiangxiu when she has the chance.
But Wang Xiangxiu was not a pushover. She immediately said, "Whether you believe it or not, we are innocent. Isn't it too bad for you to say that?"
Jiang Lu said lazily: "It's not me who said that, everyone said that. Besides, if you have no relationship with him, why do you ride his bike all day? You have worked hard to get this bike. You have used it a lot. I often see him giving you a ride to work in the morning."
"Stop accusing me! Can't we be united and help each other? I don't like to fight in vain. He and I are innocent!~" Wang Xiangxiu was unwilling to get entangled, and said loudly, then her eyes drifted towards Zhuang Zhixi.
Her target is Zhuang Zhixi, so naturally she has to draw a clear line between herself and Bai Fendou in public.
Of course, even if she said that, she was sure that she could coax him before the news reached Bai Fendou's ears. This man couldn't escape from her grasp. So now, she had to be a pure and innocent woman in front of Zhuang Zhixi.
"I know, I know there are some unflattering rumors about me, but we've been neighbors for more than ten years. Don't you know who I am? I'm innocent! I have nothing to do with Bai Fighting!"
Everyone looked at Wang Xiangxiu.
Wang Xiangxiu saw everyone's strange looks and said, "I swear, I don't like him! The one I love can never be him! If you continue to spread gossip about us, you are just trying to force a widow like me to death!"
Oh no!
Everyone saw that Wang Xiangxiu's expression became more subtle.
Wang Xiangxiu frowned in confusion. Seeing her mother-in-law winking at her, she was startled. She turned around and saw Bai Fendou standing not far behind her. He looked at her with a pale face. She didn't know how long she had been standing there, but it was obvious that her loud oath was heard. Bai Fendou looked shocked and unbelievable.
Wang Xiangxiu was suddenly panicked. Although she said she was sure she could persuade Bai Fendou, she didn't want Bai Fendou to see the scene.
Because the impact force is different.
Didn't Bai Fendou go to the black market to get her some meat? Why did he come back so soon? Where's the meat?
She was nervous for a moment, then quickly said: "Struggle, sister..."
Bai Fendou wiped his face, as if all his energy had been drained away, and said, "I'm tired. You can just park your bike outside my door."
After saying that, he turned and went into the house.
The neighbors looked at each other in bewilderment.
Bai Fendou lowered his head and walked into the house like a frost-bitten eggplant. The people who were watching the fun didn't say anything or move.
Everyone watched as the door was slammed shut with a loud bang, making everyone tremble.
Zhuang Zhixi and Mingmei looked at each other and held hands.
Love is so exhausting.
How lucky they are to be with the one they love.
The two of them looked at Bai Fendou's closed door with sympathy, thinking that this guy must have suffered a great shock.
Unfaithful man, I met an unfaithful man! Not to mention them, everyone else also looked at Wang Xiangxiu in condemnation.
Look, why flirt if you don't want to get married!
Wang Xiangxiu was not paying attention to everyone. She hesitated for a moment, considering whether to go up and explain now. However, since everyone was paying attention to her, she couldn't go right away, which made her feel embarrassed. The old man looked at Wang Xiangxiu coldly, sneered, and said, "Give me the car keys!"
Wang Xiangxiu: "I will give it to Struggle directly later..."
"Stop talking nonsense and bring it here!"
The old man Bai's boss only targeted Aunt Su and didn't show any mercy to Wang Xiangxiu.
In his heart, he looked down on Wang Xiangxiu. He snatched the car keys and said, "Don't always borrow a car from our family in the future. If you can't afford a car, don't ride it."
Wang Xiangxiu: “No…”
Her eyes were red, but she didn't know how to explain.
Aunt Su sighed in her heart, thinking that this daughter-in-law was really useless. She had a vixen-like appearance, but she was not smart enough. She failed at the critical moment. in her heart..."
Old man: "Don't be sad too. I feel sad just because you feel sad..."
Aunt Su: "Then don't be angry with Xiu'er. Xiu'er, why don't you go find Doufen and explain it to her. Even if we are not in love, our relationship is more important than that of family members."
Wang Xiangxiu: “Oh.”
She had the steps and hurried over to knock on the door.
Bai Fendou refused to open the door.
Everyone looked at it in unison...
Although Lan Sihai did not come out, he was standing in his room looking out through the glass. Beside him was Luo Xiaohe who was also watching the fun and was also watching with great interest.
What a coincidence, she knows all these people.
She had seen it in the hospital! She really knew the general idea of love, hate and vengeance.
Luo Xiaohe: "Your yard is so lively!"
I want to live here!
