Chapter 22 Jealousy Makes Her Unrecognizable
When she squeezed through the gate, she saw that her father had been beaten black and blue by Xie Dabao, and her mother was crying with snot and tears.
"Hey! What are you doing? Why do you bully my parents?" Xu Shan threw her bag hard at Xie Dabao, and immediately ran to Xu Laoer, protecting her parents behind her.
When Xu Laoer saw his daughter coming back, he didn't care about his own pain anymore and asked her, "How is it? Did you marry that officer?"
Xu Shan shook her head angrily: "No."
"Why not? You've been there for so long, why haven't you gotten married? Don't they recognize you?" Liang Xiulan was also anxious.
Xu Shan is the couple’s last hope!
If Xu Shan hadn't gotten married, how could she repay the money? Two hundred yuan was more than their family's annual income!
Everyone could hear the conversation between the three people clearly. Xie Gui knew that the money would not be returned. Xu Laoer and his wife talked about marrying an officer purely to delay time.
However, they can't pay back the money, and it's not a good idea to keep wasting time like this.
So, he rolled his eyes and set his sights on Xu Shan: "Okay, it doesn't matter if Xu Nuo doesn't come back, Xu Shan is back. My son's wife is decided, and it doesn't matter if Xu Nuo can't marry, then let Xu Shan marry."
When Liang Xiulan heard that Xu Shan was asked to marry in her place, she became so anxious that her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Xu Laoer was in a panic, slapping Liang Xiulan in the face and pinching her philtrum, and finally managed to wake her up.
How could she faint at such an important moment?
If she fainted, she wouldn't be able to handle such a big situation by herself!
Husband and wife are birds of the same forest. When disaster strikes, they must bear it together. No one can faint first!
"No, I won't marry! Why should I marry?" Xu Shan totally disagreed.
Although she couldn't marry an officer, she could marry a worker in Beijing!
Zhang Qiang, Zhang Man’s biological brother, is eleven years older than him, but he is a worker, a seventh-level fitter, and earns seventy or eighty yuan a month.
From now on, she can live in Beijing.
What’s the point of marrying Xie Dabao?
Who would want to marry a fool who eats sheep poop and eggs and plays with his own urine mud every day?
"Yes, our Shanshan won't get married! We will pool money for you. Please wait for another month and we will lend you the money!" Xu Laoer pleaded again.
He only had this one daughter in his life, and he hoped that his daughter would marry a good man so that he and Xiulan could live happily with him.
What's the point of marrying a fool?
Can't marry!
Xie Dabao insisted that Xu Shan marry him, but he still despised her and burst into tears, with snot and tears streaming down his face: "I don't want Xu Shan, she's ugly, dark, and ugly. I want Xu Shan, I want Xu Shan!"
Hearing her yelling for a promise, Xu Shan began to think about it.
The Xie family bullied their Lu family, so they must suffer. And that Xu Nuo stole her marriage, and in the end not only did she not marry the company commander, but she actually married the regiment commander. She was so jealous.
Jealousy had distorted her beyond all recognition.
Jealousy tore her apart.
"Xie Dabao, you want a wife, why are you looking for my family? Go to the village production brigade as soon as possible. Your wife Xu Nuo is getting a letter of certification there. If you go too late, your wife will take the letter of certification and marry someone else." Xu Shan said.
"My wife, Xu Nuo! Xu Nuo is back, I want to go find my wife!" Xie Dabao was so excited that he ran out yelling.
Xie Gui didn't believe it and quickly grabbed his son and said, "Don't go. She is lying to you."
Xu Shan immediately raised her hand and swore: "If I lie to you, then my whole family will be killed!"
After hearing such a cruel oath, Xie Gui believed it and went to the village production team with a group of people.
"Shanshan, is Xu Nuo really back?" Xu Laoer still didn't quite believe it.
"I'm really back. I'm right there."
"Why did she come back?" Liang Xiulan asked, wiping away her tears.
Xu Shan gritted her teeth and said bitterly: "Xu Nuo also found the Lu family, and now she is going to marry someone from the Lu family!"
"Ah?" Liang Xiulan looked disappointed. "We have gone through all this trouble for nothing!"
"It's not all in vain." Xu Shan whispered, "The brother of the second daughter-in-law of the Lu family has taken a fancy to me. He works as a worker in a factory, earning 70 or 80 yuan a month. Although it's not as glorious as marrying an officer, it's not bad either. After I get married, I'll take you and my dad to the city to enjoy life."
"Really? Oh, I knew my Shanshan is a capable girl! That's great!"
"When are you getting married? Have you got any news?" asked Xu Laoer.
Xu Shan said, "I came back this time to discuss this matter with you and my mother. They said we can get married at any time. It depends on whether my parents agree. If they agree, I will take you to Beijing when I leave this time."
Xu Laoer and Liang Xiulan only had money in their eyes. When they heard that marrying a worker could earn so much money every month, they immediately agreed.
"Okay, then hurry up and pack your things. Xu Nuo will be going back to Beijing later, so we can take her car! It's a military vehicle!"
"That's great! Come on, let's pack up quickly!" Xu Laoer and Liang Xiulan went back happily to pack up.
Xu Shan threw all the tattered clothes she had taken away with her back home, then returned to her room and stuffed all the valuable things that belonged to her in the room into her bag.
"Xu Nuo, you're getting married. Congratulations on marrying into a good family! Your grandmother can rest in peace in her grave now." The production team leader prepared the letter of certification and handed it to Xu Nuo.
He was very familiar with Xu Nuo's family situation, and when he saw that Xu Nuo was going to marry a soldier, he was happy for her.
"Thank you!" Xu Nuo thanked him politely and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. "Captain, please accept these cigarettes. Thank you for taking care of me and grandma for so many years."
The old captain refused to accept it no matter what.
Xu Nuo said, "This is the cigarette I'm giving as wedding gift. Would you like to accept it?"
"We have to put it away!" The captain had just put the cigarette in his pocket when he heard a commotion in the yard outside. "I'll go see what's going on."
"I'm leaving now, so I'll go out with you."
Xu Nuo followed the team leader out of the door and came to the courtyard of the village committee, where he saw a group of people crowding the courtyard.
She was just wondering when she saw a short and fat man with dull eyes and a silly expression rushing out from the crowd and pounced on her.
"Xu Nuo, wife! I'm Dabao, you go home with Dabao!"
Xu Nuo was shocked. If the production team leader had not stood in front of her, she would have been knocked to the ground by this idiot.
"What are you doing! This is the production brigade, not the place for you to make trouble! Xie Gui, if you want to make trouble, take your son out to make trouble. If you stay here and cause trouble and refuse to leave, I will go to the commune to sue you!" The brigade leader shouted angrily.
Here, Xie Gui did not dare to act rashly. He signaled his relatives to come forward and hold his stupid son, and explained: "I am looking for Xu Nuo. Either go back and marry my son, or pay back the money."
