Chapter 418: Fighting, the Qin Family Returns
Zhao Guoqing continued to ask: "By the way, you just said that Bai Yan is going to get married. Have you chosen a date? When is it?"
"Well," Zhang's father's voice dragged out, as if he was thinking. After a while, he said quietly, "We want to do it as soon as possible. We'll know when Lao Qin brings the child's birth date and time to compare them. Don't worry, we'll notify you the first time, haha."
"Oh, okay, I'll hang up first." Zhao Guoqing hung up the phone and glared at the woman and asked in a bad tone, "Are you satisfied with this?"
The woman's face looked a little ugly, but she felt embarrassed. She couldn't say anything unpleasant in front of Zhao Guoqing. She was so angry that she laughed dryly twice and turned away.
Li Meili came out after everyone left, put her hands on her hips and cursed: "What the hell! It's as if our family owes them anything! Fortunately, my sister has found her in-laws. If she had married into a family like this, I don't know how they would suck her blood in the future!"
"Okay, let's never mention this matter again," Zhao Guoqing said, suppressing his anger.
Seeing that he was really angry, Li Meili immediately shut up. The next day, she went out to visit other people and heard some bad rumors. After asking around, she found out that it was Zhao Guoqing's cousin's wife who was saying bad things about her. She was so angry that she went straight to their house to argue with them. Everyone in the village knew that Zhao Guoqing's cousin's wife coveted Zhang's money and wanted to marry her daughter to them, but they didn't like her.
Zhao Guoqing's sister-in-law was so angry that she picked up a carrying pole and was ready to fight Li Meili. Li Meili was not someone to be bullied either, so she immediately picked up a hoe and fought back.
The people watching nearby saw that they were serious about the fight and stepped forward to persuade them to stop. After the weapon was snatched away, the two of them started fighting. Li Meili had several bloody scratches on her face, and she pulled out a lot of the other person's hair, and he also had bruises on his body.
The two of them had such an ugly fight during the New Year's Day that it was considered big news in the village, and the news spread within a day.
Zhang's mother and her family lived far away in Xiqiao Village and had no idea about the situation here.
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, Zhang Baiyan and Zhang Wanwan went to the county town to pick up the car early in the morning. When they drove into the village, they attracted the envy of all the villagers.
Father Zhang was waiting at the door early. When he saw the new car, his eyes lit up. He walked around it several times, unable to let it go and would not let anyone else touch it.
In the afternoon, the four members of the Qin family rushed back from An County. When they saw this high-end car, they praised it several times. Zhang's father quickly invited them into the house. Before Qin's mother had even sat down, she quickly took out Qin Wenjun's birth date and said to Zhang's mother, "You don't know how hard it is to find this thing! The child's father almost demolished the old house, and finally found it in my parents-in-law's house. I don't know how it got to them in the first place."
As she spoke, Qin's mother spread out a piece of red paper covered with ink. After so many years, the paper had faded a little, so she had to be very careful when spreading it out.
Upon hearing this, Zhang's mother hurried back to the room and took out Zhang Baiyan's birth date and time. She held it carefully and said, "My father-in-law kept this thing and gave it to us before he died. I think it's not good to read it this way. I still need to make a copy so that it will be more convenient to take it out and give it to my husband to match later."
Zhang Wanwan curiously went over to take a look, "I didn't expect we have something like this at home!"
She had never seen this thing in her previous life, or rather, she didn't even have the chance to see it in her previous life. Zhang Baiyan and Yu Yunfei fell in love in Beijing and brought it home when they were talking about marriage. The customs in the two places were different, so Zhang's father and mother didn't mention it. As for her, because she acted first and reported later, the thing was of no use to her.
Thinking of this, Zhang Wanwan asked curiously, "Mom, do I have one too?"
"Why not? You and your brother had your fortune told when you were born. Do you think your father and I, with our limited knowledge, could give you such a name? Didn't we ask someone to give it to you?" Zhang's mother said with a smile, "When you were little, you almost tore up your own birth chart, and your grandfather scolded you. Later, the old man locked the thing in an iron box so that you couldn't even touch it! I still remember it clearly!"
Zhang Wanwan's mouth twitched, feeling a little depressed. Who doesn't have some dark history? Why would you say it in front of so many people? Didn't you see that Qin Wenjun was about to laugh out loud?
Zhang's mother didn't even look at Zhang Wanwan. After spreading out the paper, she said to Zhang's father, "Old Zhang, you can read. Come and copy a copy so I can take it out later."
Father Zhang immediately became interested and picked up a pen to start.
Zhang Wanwan was fortunate enough to see her own paper then. Under her mother's instructions, she carefully took it and read it from beginning to end. It basically wrote what would happen when she turned a certain age, how to avoid misfortune and seek good fortune, what her five elements were lacking, and when it would be best to get married. It was so densely written that it gave her a headache.
"Mom, do you believe this? Let alone other things, it's not accurate about what happened to me over the past twenty years!" Zhang Wanwan muttered, and was slapped by her mother. "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand it. Anyway, it's better to believe it than not. Go and have fun!"
Zhang Wanwan was depressed again, and this time Zhang Baiyan laughed at her without any hesitation.
The adults were busy for a while and it was almost dark when the work was finished.
Mother Qin thought that the Zhang family was going to move tonight, so she asked, "Is there anything else you need our help with? Will the work at the end of the village start tomorrow morning?"
Speaking of this, Zhang's mother hurriedly said to the four people of the Qin family, "Yes, yes, we still need to ship it out tomorrow. Tomorrow morning, Bai Yan will drive his father back. The girl and I are over there now. We will come over after we pray."
Zhang Wanwan also told Qin Wenjun: "We will move the bakery to the new house later, so the bakery here will not be used anymore. We have prepared a room for you in the new house, but if you marry my brother in the future, you won't need that room, so I didn't make any special requests."
Qin Wenjun's pretty face turned red and she glanced at her shyly.
Zhang Wanwan won the game back and smiled proudly.
Zhang's mother then asked, "Girl, since you want to move the bakery over there, why don't you ask your dad to load a few trucks of stuff for you now before the time comes?"
Nothing in the bakery here has been moved. How can she start work in the new house at this rate?
Zhang Wanwan shook her head without even thinking, "No, let's keep the bakery here for now. The things in it are all cheap and low-end anyway. I've re-ordered some ovens and baking utensils over there, and they'll arrive in two days. By then, I'm sure these things won't be used anymore."
