"Third, Third Brother..."
Zhao Xiaomei couldn't believe that her third brother, who had always loved her, would be so mean to her because of that shameless bitch.
However, seeing the ferocious man chasing Wu Xiu Lian into the house, Zhao Xiaomei had to believe it no matter how much she didn't want to.
But my heart felt like it was being cut by a knife, and tears kept flowing down.
The village head’s wife was equally distressed. She pounded her chest and gasped, “Retribution, retribution, it’s all retribution!
This is retribution for our family's disdain for Liu Ruyue!"
Thinking back to the time when his third son got engaged to Liu Ruyue, he still looked down on her, often criticizing her and asking her to come to his house to do housework.
If it weren't for his family's excessive hardship on Liu Ruyue, perhaps Liu Ruyue wouldn't have broken off the engagement so decisively when she found out that Zhao Weiqiang and Wu Xiu Lian were having an affair.
Thinking of this, the village head's wife was filled with regret: How could such a good family become like this?
The village chief was also very angry. Before, he was the one who had the final say in Beishan Village.
However, now, because his third son and Wu Xiu Lian had accidents one after another, his prestige in the village was declining again and again.
Recently, he could clearly feel that the people in the village did not respect him as much as before.
In particular, he also heard that the Li family seemed to be making some moves, as if they wanted to elect a new village chief.
But now, not only can his family not help him, they are even holding him back. They make trouble every other day and have become a laughing stock in the village.
"Let's split up..."
The village chief seemed to have aged more than ten years in an instant, and spoke in a weak and old voice.
"What did you say, old man?"
Hearing her husband's words, the village chief's wife was shocked. She forgot to cry, stared at the village chief with wide eyes and asked: "They say that as long as the parents are alive, the family will not be divided. If you divide the family now, won't others laugh at us?"
It is said that a daughter-in-law will eventually become a mother-in-law. She finally became a mother-in-law and enjoyed the blessing of being a daughter-in-law for a few years. Now she is asking for a division of the family. Wouldn't that make the women in the village laugh at her?
Wouldn't everyone be talking behind her back about how incompetent she is, how she can't even control her daughter-in-law, and how she's splitting up the family business at such a young age?
"Let's break up..."
The village chief sighed and said quietly, "Children are all debts. If we keep them, I'm afraid it will only lead to injustice!"
When the village head's wife heard what her husband said and thought of her third son's attitude just now, she felt a chill in her heart: Isn't what the man said unreasonable?
Even though she was unwilling, she had no choice but to agree to the separation.
The old couple said they wanted to split up the family business, and their sons and daughters-in-law, who had been looking forward to it for a long time, naturally would not stop them.
So, the Zhao family quickly divided the property.
When the news reached the village, everyone was shocked: this was the first time in their village that a family was divided before all the children were married.
However, when everyone thought about the noise that came from the Zhao family every other day, they understood what was going on.
After much thought, I felt that Wu Xiu Lian was not a good person. She had only been in Lao Zhao's family for over a month and she had already turned the family upside down.
Compared to Liu Ruyue, who led the Xu family to a better and better life, she became the representative of a good daughter-in-law in the hearts of the villagers in Beishan Village.
In particular, in the past two days, some young people in the village have been following Xu Zeqing out to earn money.
Seeing the children bringing home genuine money, how could the villagers say a bad word about Xu Zeqing?
Not only was he respectful to Xu Zeqing, he was also respectful to the entire Xu family, not to mention Liu Ruyue, the apple of the Xu family's eye.
While the Zhao family was celebrating the New Year in a chaotic and deserted atmosphere, the Xu family was celebrating the New Year with a particularly festive atmosphere.
Early in the morning, Xu Zeqing took Shi Tou and started to paste Spring Festival couplets. Unlike other families who just gritted their teeth and bought a pair of couplets, Xu Zeqing bought five blessings and pasted couplets on every door. There were also several big red Chinese knots hanging in the yard, and a kumquat tree that Xu Zeqing got from somewhere. It looked very festive.
When Liu Ruyue woke up from her sleep, Xu Zeling had already killed and stewed the chickens and ducks, and was preparing to catch fish.
When he saw Liu Ruyue leave the house, he immediately brought out the old hen soup he had cooked in the morning and gave it to Liu Ruyue to drink. He was afraid that it would make Liu Ruyue feel nauseous, so he took the fish and went to the side to clean it up.
After drinking the chicken soup, Liu Ruyue felt warm all over.
He stretched himself and looked at the Xu family members who were still busy, and a smile appeared unconsciously on the corner of his mouth: it seems that this kind of happiness full of the flavor of fireworks is also quite beautiful.
The dogs in the village would howl once or twice, and the sounds of villagers cooking for the New Year could be heard everywhere. For a moment, Liu Ruyue understood why people in this era were so easily satisfied.
In the days of material scarcity, when people could not even get enough to eat, people lived frugally, saved some food and money, and exchanged them for delicacies that they would not eat on ordinary days on New Year's Day. They put them on the table. The cold wind was howling outside the window, but the house was warm. The loved ones gathered together to welcome the arrival of the next New Year.
Such a life is simple, happy and full of hope.
"Yueyue, the wind is so strong in the yard, do you want to sit in the main room?"
Xu Zeqing, who was busy and sweating, turned around and saw Jiaojiaoer staring at him. He immediately stepped forward and showed concern.
When Liu Ruyue heard this, she immediately shook her head and said softly, "Aqing, the room is a bit stuffy. I want to get some fresh air in the yard."
"Okay, then you sit down!"
After hearing what the woman said, Xu Zeqing did not force her to go in. Instead, he went to get his military coat and put it on Liu Ruyue.
After finishing the review, Xu Zeqing prepared to continue chopping wood.
However, just as he took a step forward, he heard Jiaojiaoer behind him calling him, "A Qing?"
Xu Zeqing subconsciously thought something was wrong with the woman and quickly turned back.
Who would have thought that when he returned to the woman's side, Jiaojiao'er just held his calloused hand with her soft little hand, smiling happily: "Aqing, it's great, it's great to be with you.
It’s great to be able to celebrate the New Year with you!”
The woman's eyes were filled with uncontrollable tenderness, which made Xu Zeqing's heart tremble. He squatted down excitedly, shook Liu Ruyue's hand, and said affectionately:
"Yueyue, I also think it's great to be with you."
He placed his big hand tenderly and lovingly on Liu Ruyue's head, gently rubbing her smooth hair, and whispered, "Yueyue, this is our first New Year together. In the future, we will have a second New Year, a third New Year..."
We will be together for eternity, spending every New Year's Eve and New Year's Eve together!"
The man spoke of his promise solemnly and sincerely, and Liu Ruyue couldn't help but feel moved.
