Xu Daya was wearing a bright red cotton-padded jacket with large floral patterns; it was clearly newly made.
Surprisingly, he was wearing black thin cotton pants with a pair of cotton leather shoes on his feet.
These cotton-padded leather shoes are a rare item; even city workers wouldn't normally wear them, but Xu Daya is wearing them now.
Xu Daya left with almost nothing, and Xu Yaoqiang only symbolically accepted a small dowry.
Seeing Xu Daya being cared for so well, even though she had done heinous things in the past, as her family, seeing her being treated so kindly still touched my heart.
Grandma Xu couldn't hold back her tears.
Needless to say, Xu Yaoqiang, his biological father, was also involved.
Although he was very disappointed in this daughter, she was still his only daughter, so how could he not want her to have a good life?
Xu Daya's husband is named Cao Anian, and this is the first time Xu Xinning has met him.
Cao Anian wasn't very tall, only about 1.7 meters. He wasn't particularly strong either; he was thin, dark-skinned, and had a buzz cut, making him a typical seaside person.
He was wearing a faded cotton-padded jacket, black khaki pants, and cotton shoes that looked like they were old but he hadn't worn them much.
Although Xu Xinning had never met Cao Anian, it didn't mean she hadn't paid attention to their lives.
It has to be said that Xu Daya is really lucky. Although Cao Anian is already thirty-two years old, isn't there a saying that older men are more caring?
Cao Anian truly dotes on Xu Daya; you can tell just by looking at her all this time and not taking his eyes off her.
Cao Anian's feelings towards Xu Daya seem to be more like a father's feelings towards his daughter.
Xu Yaoqiang wasn't much older than Cao Anian, but Xu Yaoqiang was good-looking, so the two of them looked like they were the same age sitting together.
When Cao Anian came, he brought a lot of seafood he had dried himself, and also bought candy and pastries, showing great generosity.
Cao Anian: "We went to your old house, but when we saw no one there, we asked you if you had moved."
Xu Yaoqiang: "Yes! It's been a while. This is your grandparents', uncle's, and fourth uncle's house. They were worried about me and Zeyu, so they insisted that we move back."
Cao Anian: "It's good to live with everyone; we can take care of each other."
Xu Yaoqiang: "They don't need our care at all. It's actually Zeyu and me who are being taken care of."
Cao Anian also sensed the melancholy in his father-in-law's tone, so he said, "We're all family, and they also hope you're doing well."
When Xu Daya saw Xu Xinning, her heart was filled with rage. She was roaring, she was struggling, and she even wanted to beg Xu Xinning to let her go. But no matter how clear-headed she was, she only showed the foolishness that comes with being a fool.
While Xu Daya was looking at Xu Xinning, Xu Xinning was also observing her.
Xu Xinning was confident in her methods, but she also wanted to know what kind of struggle Xu Daya was going through at this moment.
The angrier Xu Daya became inside, the more bizarre her outward appearance became. She kept grinning foolishly, and drool was dripping from her mouth.
Because Cao Anian had been paying close attention to Xu Daya, he always carefully dealt with her drooling.
Cao Anian smiled shyly at Xu Xinning and said, "Our Da Ya is happy to see her sister-in-law. I've never seen her smile so happily at home."
Xu Xinning smiled at Cao Anian and said, "I'm a month older than Daya, so I don't know how to address her properly."
Cao Anian paused for a moment, then scratched his head awkwardly.
Grandma Xu immediately said, "It's alright, there's no need to be so rigid. From now on, Nannan can call him Brother Anian."
Xu Xinning smiled and nodded.
Cao Anian chuckled and said "Hey, hey" twice.
Actually, Cao Anian was almost dazzled when he saw Xu Xinning smile. To be honest, he had never seen such a beautiful girl before. He originally thought his wife was already beautiful enough.
Thinking of this, Cao Anian looked happily at Xu Daya's belly. Their child would probably be very good-looking in the future.
Grandma Xu was quite satisfied with Cao Anian at this moment, so she introduced him again: "This is Xiao Heng, our daughter's fiancé, an educated youth from our brigade."
Mu Jingheng nodded politely.
Cao Anian, however, smiled rather awkwardly.
They were both sons-in-law of the Xu family, but Cao Anian felt a little inferior in comparison to his appearance and demeanor.
Although Cao Anian was innocent, Mu Jingheng couldn't control his emotions whenever he saw Xu Daya. He hated Xu Daya in both his past and present lives, and that would never change. So he couldn't like Cao Anian either.
Cao Anian only learned about the Xu family's situation after marrying Xu Daya. He didn't expect that Xu Daya's eldest uncle and fourth uncle were such capable people, and he didn't expect that Xu Daya's aunt would be the brigade leader.
Everyone in the village said that Cao Anian had struck gold, but Cao Anian never thought about relying on the Xu family for anything. He felt that being able to marry Xu Daya was the greatest happiness.
Grandma Xu: "It's not a holiday or anything, why did you suddenly think of coming over to visit? Are you all doing well at home? We've been busy and haven't been able to come and see you all."
Cao Anian: "Grandma, Da Ya is pregnant. She's been pregnant for over three months, so she came to tell all the relatives."
Grandma Xu: Oh! Really? This is wonderful news! Why didn't you send a message? We could have gone over to see it sooner.
Cao Anian was a smart man. Judging from everyone's behavior today, he felt that something was going on. Otherwise, he wouldn't have treated the two girls differently.
He heard that Xu Daya had gone mad just days before her wedding.
But Cao Anian wasn't the type to pry. On the contrary, he felt he had gotten a great deal. If Xu Daya hadn't been stupid, it wouldn't have been his turn. So he didn't care about the Xu family's attitude.
He could also tell that everyone was genuinely happy when he told them Xu Daya was pregnant, except for her sister-in-law and her fiancé.
I suspect the problem lies with this sister-in-law.
Cao Anian said embarrassedly, "The elders in the village said that you can't tell anyone you're pregnant before three months, so I didn't send anyone a message."
Grandma Xu: "A-Nian, you've worked so hard. With Daya in this condition, you have to be busy both at home and outside. If the baby is born, will you be able to manage? Your breast milk will come over to help with the postpartum care, so don't worry."
Cao Anian was also worried about this matter. Although he had a wife before, she died in childbirth, so he was particularly afraid of women giving birth.
From the moment he learned that Xu Daya was pregnant, Cao Anian began making plans for her childbirth. To prevent any dangers, he planned to take Xu Daya to the hospital for delivery and also planned to give some money to the aunt next door so that she could help take care of Xu Daya and the baby.
Now that Grandma Xu is saying she'll come over to help with postpartum care, that would be perfect.
Cao Anian chuckled, "I'm worried about this right now."
