Watching them quarreling, Su Wanruo didn't dare to go forward and ask for directions. Thinking that country women were unreasonable, she decided to stay away from the trouble as soon as possible!
"Zhao Hongying! Don't think you can bully others just because your son is a soldier!"
"Humph! My son is already the class monitor at such a young age, what about your son? Oh, right, you don't have a son! Your family will be extinct!"
The word "extinct" was the most hurtful. The woman, who was originally furious, suddenly fell silent, her eyes red. "Zhao Hongying! Don't bully me so much!"
"You're the one picking a fight with me. I don't even bother bullying you!" Zhao Hongying straightened her back and snorted softly, "If you have nothing better to do, go home and have a son!"
The woman is about the same age as Zhao Hongying. Asking her to go back and give birth to a son at this age is tantamount to humiliation.
"..." The more the woman thought about it, the angrier she became, and the more aggrieved she felt. She couldn't even stand up straight without a son. The most important thing was, who made other people's sons successful!
She left crying, and Zhao Hongying was like a victorious general, holding her waist with her hands, looking very proud!
He spat fiercely in the direction she left, "Bah!"
"Excuse me," Su Wanruo asked a little nervously, "Do you know where Xu Changan's home is?"
Only then did Zhao Hongying catch a glimpse of the pretty girl standing next to her. The girl was dressed very fashionably, with delicate wool curls, a small skirt inside, and a coat outside. The leather shoes on her feet were already very dirty, and she was holding a gift box in her hand. Who did she come to see?
Wait, did this girl just ask about Chang'an? Zhao Hongying asked again uncertainly, "Who are you looking for?"
Su Wanruo cleared her throat and spoke in perfect Mandarin, "Xu Changan!"
She heard what the two people were arguing about just now. This man’s son is serving in the army, so maybe he knows Chang’an!
"What do you want to see him about?" Zhao Hongying immediately looked at Su Wanruo carefully again. Could this girl be...
"I'm his girlfriend."
As expected! Zhao Hongying slapped her thigh with joy upon hearing this. "You are Wanruo, right? Oh, I heard Chang'an mention you before. I didn't expect you to be so pretty!"
This city girl is really pretty, and most importantly, she is also a cultured person and a famous journalist! !
Heard Chang'an mention it? It seems that she has found out about Chang'an's relatives. Su Wanruo's mouth curled up slightly, "Hello, auntie, what is your relationship with Chang'an?" Her behavior is like that of a shrew. If she marries Chang'an in the future, she must have less contact with her!
Zhao Hongying affectionately took the gift box from Su Wanruo's hand. Look how sensible this daughter-in-law is. She brought so many gifts when she came for the first time!
"Changan is my son!"
After Zhao Hongying finished speaking, she warmly took Su Wanruo's arm and walked home. "Wanruo, you said you came quite suddenly, which really gave me a big surprise. If Chang'an knew you were coming, he would definitely be very happy! Let's go! Let's go home!!"
Su Wanruo's smile froze. Huh? This person turned out to be Xu Changan's mother! Her future mother-in-law!
Her mother-in-law turned out to be such a tough nut to crack!!!
Su Wanruo felt like backing out and was almost dragged away by Zhao Hongying.
Not only does this person behave like a shrew, but she's also rude and crude!
I can't understand why Xu Changan was born to her. How could such a mother have such an outstanding son?!
Outrageous!!
Zhao Hongying took Su Wanruo's arm and spoke to her enthusiastically, "Wanruo, are you tired from the ride from the city? Are your parents in good health? Have you been busy with work recently?"
Su Wanruo answered one by one.
Whenever she met someone passing by, Zhao Hongying would point at Su Wanruo and introduce her to them!
"This is my daughter-in-law! A big-name reporter from a big city. Look, she even brought me a gift! She's so thoughtful!!"
The smile on Su Wanruo's lips was a little stiff. When she followed Zhao Hongying to the door of her house,
Looking at the dilapidated courtyard in front of her, Su Wanruo was dumbfounded again.
Is this house really habitable? Will it collapse while I'm sleeping? The yard is full of chicken manure, it stinks!
The smile on Su Wanruo's face disappeared completely.
I knew Xu Changan was from the countryside, but I didn't expect his family conditions to be so poor.
"Wanruo, why are you still standing here? Come in and sit down!" Zhao Hongying put the gifts into the house first, turned around and looked at her good daughter-in-law who was not moving, and urged her.
Su Wanruo walked on tiptoe. There was no chicken manure. The mud on her feet could be washed off, but the smell of chicken manure could not be removed. Her shoes were thus useless!
After a lot of effort, she finally reached the front of the house. It was empty, with nothing in it. Zhao Hongying brought a small stool for her to sit on.
Su Wanruo looked at the dirty wooden stool and didn't know what it was stained with. She thought it would be better to stand!
"Sit down!" Zhao Hongying looked at her with joy. The more she looked at this daughter-in-law, the more satisfied she became.
"No need, auntie, I'll just stand here." Su Wanruo waved her hand and looked around the room. She could completely understand the term "bare walls".
"Wanruo, Chang'an took his father to the town clinic to get medicine! Be back soon."
As he was speaking, Xu Changan came back driving a ox cart.
Zhao Hongying hurried out, "Changan! Go inside and see who's here!"
Xu Changan looked at his mother in confusion, wondering if someone from the army had arrived?
He walked into the room, looked at Su Wanruo, and stood there in a daze for a moment.
Su Wanruo had never seen Xu Changan like this before. The clothes he wore were very old, the kind that even her father would not wear.
The face remained unchanged, the cloth shoes on his feet were covered in mud, and when he came in from the yard, the soles of his feet were covered in chicken manure!
Su Wanruo pursed her lips, "Chang'an?"
