At night, Xu Hongying went out for a walk.
There was a figure waiting at the intersection early in the morning. When he saw the old lady, he walked over slowly.
"Aunt Hongying, what a coincidence, you're out for a walk too..."
Yang Qiuxia's face was full of smiles. She took a few eager steps forward, her lips as sweet as if covered with honey.
Xu Hongying rubbed her aching heart. If she didn't go out for some fresh air, she would be mad to death by her eldest son.
"It's you, Qiuxia." Xu Hongying forced out a dry smile, which was uglier than crying.
"What's wrong? Why are you so sad?"
"It's all because of Shen Sisi!" Xu Hongying said as she took Yang Qiuxia's hand and said, "Speaking of which, I have to thank you. If you hadn't asked a relative to tell me, I would still be kept in the dark."
Yang Qiuxia rolled up her hair and smiled: "I don't know why Captain Gu didn't tell you. It's such a big thing, he made the decision on his own and even found someone... Hey! I don't even want to say it."
...
...
The old lady seemed to have found a soulmate. She sighed and gritted her teeth, "Chengfeng has been at odds with us since he was a child. Now that he has grown up, he dares to make his own decision on marriage matters and even married a slut."
"I heard that she even beat you up?"
Yang Qiuxia suppressed her grievance and said, "Forget it, I won't mention it anymore."
"You are too weak, that's why she bullied you. Just wait, I will find an opportunity to teach her a lesson for you and make her apologize to you."
"Please don't do that. Aunt Hongying, you don't know that she forced me to write an apology letter that day. She can sue me at any time. How dare I provoke her..."
"What? They forced you to write an apology? That's outrageous!" Xu Hongying's voice rose several notes. She had a very bad impression of this daughter-in-law: "Your husband Chen doesn't care."
When talking about this, Yang Qiuxia wiped her tears sadly: "You also know that my husband Chen is a rough man and never cares about me."
Xu Hongying felt a lump in her throat; she could relate to this kind of thing.
Lao Gu has been married to her for decades, but he has devoted himself to the military camp. He doesn't care about his family and never stands by her when something happens.
I really have so much pain that I can’t express it in words.
She looked at Yang Qiuxia as if she saw herself when she was young: "Don't worry, if Captain Chen doesn't protect you, I will. I will stand up for you and let Shen Sisi give you an explanation..."
At home, Shen Sisi was peeling oranges for Niu Niu.
Suddenly there were three knocks on the door.
"Is Sister Sisi at home?"
Hearing Li Wenhui's voice, Shen Sisi quickly got up and opened the door.
Li Wenhui was holding a basket with three or four pieces of smoked sausages in it.
"Sister Wenhui, please come in."
She walked in and handed the basket to Shen Sisi.
"I made my own sausage for you..."
Shen Sisi's palms sank. This must be several kilograms of flesh...
Li Wenhui is a country girl who doesn't have any special skills. She likes to tinker with handicrafts and food at home.
Shen Sisi took the sausage. The sight of it being fat and lean and shiny with oil made her stomach swell with greed. She was already thinking about what gift to give her in return.
"Thank you, you are so polite..." Shen Sisi quickly welcomed the person in, put the basket next to the sewing machine, and poured a cup of hot tea for the person.
Then she brought out peanuts, melon seeds and candies.
"Hurry up and make a fire and eat something."
Li Wenhui didn't hesitate and grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started cracking them.
"Why are there only you and Niuniu, Captain Gu and his old lady?"
"Gu Chengfeng went to process some documents, and the old lady also went out for a walk."
Li Wenhui finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked her up and down with concern: "Are you okay today?"
"What can happen to me?" Shen Sisi asked back with a smile.
"That's good, that's good. This old lady is well-known in the military district for being fierce and cunning... I'm afraid she will make things difficult for you."
Shen Sisi seldom heard Gu Chengfeng mention his family. She only knew that he had a bad relationship with his parents and relatives since he was a child, and he was always causing trouble. His family had no choice but to send him to his aunt's house in Lin County.
When he first came to Lin County, Gu Chengfeng was always fighting and making trouble, and he was famous throughout the county.
The school teachers jointly wrote a letter asking the school to expel Gu Chengfeng. It was her father who saw the shining points in Gu Chengfeng and said that the child was not a bad person and could still be saved.
She didn't know how her father convinced Gu Chengfeng, but in any case, Gu Chengfeng really became a better person and even joined the army.
Shen Sisi couldn't understand. Gu Chengfeng was the only son of the Gu family. How could his father and mother not love him?
It turns out that there is some justification.
"This old lady has been in the capital all year round. How did you know?" Shen Sisi didn't doubt her, but just felt puzzled.
"Everyone knows it, except you." Li Wenhui cracked melon seeds and said excitedly, "This is a long story. It has to start many years ago..."
When Xu Hongying was young, she fell into the water while washing clothes and was rescued by Gu Changhe, the father of Gu Chengfeng.
She fell in love with this young and handsome soldier at first sight and married him out of gratitude.
At that time, Gu Changhe had a lover and they were talking about marriage, but he met Xu Hongying who cried, made a fuss and even threatened to commit suicide, so he had no choice but to marry her.
After marriage, he seldom went home and stayed in the barracks all day.
Feeling neglected, Xu Hongying went to the military camp and made a scene, forcing him to go home for at least one week every month. This is how the Gu family had three children.
"She was having a hard time, so she took it out on her children and her neighbors. The news spread throughout the military region."
While Li Wenhui was gossiping, she was also keeping watch.
I was afraid that Xu Hongying would come back suddenly and hear her chirping behind me, and then she would grab her and bite her...
Shen Sisi shouldn’t comment on the affairs of her elders, but after hearing the story, she couldn’t help but sigh.
It turns out that Gu Chengfeng grew up in such a cold home.
No wonder he was so rebellious as a child, causing trouble everywhere to seek attention.
As for Xu Hongying, she is both hateful and pitiful.
No wonder she has such a weird personality and I dislike her everywhere...
"In short, you have to be careful, she can be very annoying." Li Wenhui looked at her with pity. It was such a sin to have such an evil mother-in-law.
"If an enemy comes, we will fight him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. Don't worry!"
The two of them were chatting quietly around the fire. Thinking that the old lady would be back soon, Li Wenhui stood up and said goodbye: "Remember to try that sausage, it's delicious!"
"Thank you, Sister Wenhui..."
Just as Shen Sisi sent Li Wenhui out of the hospital, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure waving goodbye to the old lady at the intersection.
Yang Qiuxia?
How could she be with Xu Hongying?
You must be holding back on something good!
Shen Sisi returned to the stove calmly, ready to be on guard at all times.
Gu Chengfeng was not at home. Logically, Xu Hongying would definitely take the opportunity to bully her and make trouble with her.
But the strange thing was that Xu Hongying just glared at her as soon as she entered the room and then walked into the room.
This is so abnormal!
It was abnormally quiet.
I was thinking about it, not knowing what she was up to.
