"You know now?" Old Mrs. Xia pulled the man into the living room and asked him to answer properly.
Chen Xiangbei was stared at by three old ladies and felt a little shy. "It's just a girl from my class. I saw them holding hands. There must be something going on."
Mrs. Wang immediately pressed on: "What's your female classmate's name? Where does she live? How many people are there in her family? How many brothers and sisters do you have? What do your parents do for a living?"
Chen Xiangbei: "Aunt Wang, you can ask him yourself. That girl's family isn't well off, so they probably won't let him be their son-in-law. I won't say anything else, lest Dahe gets angry with me."
Old Mrs. Xia: ...When you mentioned this, Wang Dahe was going to be angry with you. It’s too late to worry about it now.
"Oh, by the way, I saw Brother Hu Jie come back today, and there was a woman sitting in his truck."
The three old ladies were shocked: "What?"
This is even more unbelievable than Wang Dahe having a girlfriend. Xiao Hu has been alone for so many years. He has been forced by his parents many times but has refused to remarry. He is more distant from single women of marriageable age than other men. Everyone in their compound thinks he has decided to be a bachelor for life.
Moreover, Yingying's brain is not very well now. He often said before that he would save more money for Yingying and find an opportunity to go to a good hospital in a big city in the future. Why did he suddenly bring back a woman?
"Does this woman look familiar to you? Is she really not from our area? Maybe she brought the person back here by chance, or is this woman someone else's relative?" Old Mrs. Xia asked several questions in a row. Chen Xiangbei's eyes rolled and he suddenly stretched out his hand.
"Give me money before I answer. You haven't given me pocket money for a long time."
Old Lady Xia cursed: "Do you want a slap?"
Chen Xiangbei withdrew his hand instantly, rushed out and ran away, "I won't tell you."
Old Lady Xia was a little angry. "This kid, if he comes back, I will beat him to death."
"Who is that person Xiao Hu brought back?"
The three old ladies looked puzzled.
In the evening, Hu Jie really brought a woman to the compound, which caused an uproar in the compound.
"Xiao Hu, who is this person...?"
When the woman heard this, she suddenly took Hu Jie's arm.
Everyone gasped. Is this really this kind of relationship?
Hu Jie smiled and said, "This is my wife Bai Yun. I got the marriage certificate in her hometown some time ago."
"Hiss, Xiao Hu, have you come to your senses?"
Hu Jie nodded without explaining. The relationship between him and Bai Yun was complicated, but the only certainty was that they were a couple in name only, a decision they had agreed was in the best interests of both parties.
Thinking of this, he remembered his mother in his hometown who kept sending him telegrams, saying that he was the last blood of the Hu family, and if he could not leave a legacy for the Hu family, she would not let him and Yingying have a good life.
The original words were much more unpleasant than this. Hu Jie was often scared when he got out of the car, for fear that his mother would suddenly come over and do something to Yingying.
If I had known earlier, I would have let her be like Hu Bin...
But there is no if. Since the death of her eldest grandson, the old lady has become extremely irritable and difficult to deceive. Every day she does nothing but urge him to have a son. She has no chance to make a move.
Hu Jie brought the person into the house, gave her a few instructions, and then came out to accompany Hu Yingying. Then he went to the post office to mail letters, one to his mother and one to his father who was still undergoing reform on the farm. He had a big plan in mind.
When I went to see Hu Yingying at Old Lady Yin's house, she still looked dazed, but Old Lady Yin had taken care of her and she became fair and rosy, and even a little fatter.
Old Lady Yin grabbed him and avoided Yingying and asked, "Are you disgusted with Yingying's stupidity now, so you married her? Don't you want to support her anymore?"
Hu Jie shook his head. "Aunt Yin, that's not the case. My relationship with her is not what you think. I can tell you, but don't tell anyone else."
After Old Lady Yin nodded, Hu Jie gave her a rough outline of his plan, but this outline made Old Lady Yin so shocked that she covered her chest with her hands.
I didn't realize that this Xiao Hu is the best at killing people and destroying their hearts.
Old Lady Yin put herself in Hu's mother's shoes. Once she knew the truth, she would be furious to death, really furious to death.
"Xiao Hu, are you really going to do this?"
Hu Jie said viciously, "She wants to use Yingying to threaten me, so I absolutely cannot let her off easily! She can do whatever she wants to me, but she can't take revenge on the child."
Old Lady Yin agreed, "It's really cruel to attack a child. It's just like the Japanese devils. They should go to hell!"
The courtyard was exceptionally quiet on a late autumn night.
But a woman's sharp curses were heard from Hu Jie's house.
"You useless piece of shit, can't you even do this?"
"I didn't marry you to be your nanny. If I knew you were like this, I definitely wouldn't marry you."
"It's better for me to marry that old bachelor in our village than to follow you."
"What? You don't even have money, so why should I live with you?"
"You don't even have a wedding? Why not? Your previous wife had one, so why shouldn't I?"
"Are you still thinking about your ex? You better understand that I am marrying you now."
"Other people have mothers-in-law to help them when they get married, but I only have an empty house like this when I get married, and you have to drive the car every day. Why is my life so hard~"
"What? Your father is still a labor camp prisoner. Oh my God, why didn't you tell me before you got married? If I knew you were this kind of person, I would never marry you even if I died."
"And your daughter, I won't help you raise her. If I raise her well, people will say I'm just pretending, and if I don't, people will say I'm vicious. I'll be in trouble!"
"What? Whoever you asked to raise him before should raise him in the future. I won't raise him anyway, so just forget it."
The neighbors in the compound all peeked out, and Old Lady Xia rushed over and banged on the door, "Xiao Hu, what's wrong with you? What happened? You can't quarrel like this after getting married."
The room was quiet for a while, and then Hu Jie's muffled voice came out, "Aunt Xia, don't worry about it, I made Bai Yun angry, it's okay."
Old Mrs. Xia walked back with some worry. How could they have such a quarrel on the first day of marriage? Even when she and Old Chen got married, they didn’t have such a quarrel.
Old Lady Wang also ran out. After hearing Hu Jie's answer, she came close to Old Lady Xia and said, "It seems that Xiao Hu, the second-married wife, has a bad temper."
"I think so too. What if she treats Yingying badly? They are a legal couple. If she wants to teach Yingying a lesson, there's nothing we can do except scold her." Old Mrs. Xia felt sorry for Yingying all of a sudden.
