Chapter 83: Chaos



"I don't want to listen!" Xian Fangfang struggled and cried: "Let me go, I want to go back to the city, I want to eat and drink hot bone soup!"

"Okay, okay! I promise, I'll take you away!"

"You lied to me again. You said this morning that I must stay at your house for three days!"

"My dear, I will never lie to you! That's just an old custom. Let's ignore it. Nothing is more important than you! Let's go to the commune now. But there are no buses to the county town now, and the hotel in the commune may be a bit shabby..."

"I'm willing to live in a simple place. I'll stay for one night and take the shuttle bus to catch the train back to the provincial capital tomorrow morning!"

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, all the time!"

Tian Zhiyuan and Tian Xianglan stood by and watched Tian Zhigao coaxing Xian Fangfang like a child. Tian Zhiyuan turned his head away and said nothing, but Tian Xianglan pouted and rolled her eyes: Marrying a city woman is like worshipping an ancestor, what's the good? It would have been better to keep Meng Taohua, who could not only work for the family, but also occupy the yard, which is very cost-effective! Several people returned to the Tian family. After this outdoor activity, Xian Fangfang was stimulated by the food in Meng Taohua's house. She became more and more hungry and thirsty, so she wanted to find something to eat. She thought the boiled water in the Tian family was not pure and smelled bad. Since she came to the Tian family, she has refused to drink water. When she was thirsty, she ate some fruit; the food was not to her liking, and she was so hungry that she ate a few biscuits. Fortunately, her aunt loved her and bought her a net bag of apples, pears, and canned biscuits.

But after searching for a long time, I couldn't find the net bag.

It was a small room, and the net bag of fruit didn't have legs, so where could it go? Xian Fangfang thought that she had left the door open just now, and someone from the Tian family must have taken the fruit away. She immediately became furious and called Tian Zhigao in with a shrill voice, throwing things around and crying and throwing tantrums.

What else could Tian Zhigao do? He had no choice but to go find his mother. Wang Shuifeng didn't have to think too much. She caught him right away and went straight to the small side room where Tian Xianglan and her daughter lived. Sure enough, she saw the rubber rope net bag, but now there was only the net bag left. The apples, pears and canned food had been eaten up long ago. Even the cans were not left. No one knew where they were hidden.

Wang Shuifeng was so angry that she fell backwards.

When Zhao Liulian heard that the net bag of apples, pears and canned biscuits that her third uncle brought back yesterday were all eaten up by Tian Xianglan's four maids, and that her two little girls had been waiting for so long with empty eyes but didn't get any, she was immediately furious. She grabbed Tian Xianglan and started scolding her. The two sisters-in-law almost got into a fight. Zhao Liulian pointed at the gate and told Tian Xianglan and her daughters to get back to Lao Liang's house and not to live in her mother's house!

No matter how fierce Tian Xianglan was, she didn't have the confidence to really fight with the eldest daughter-in-law of the Tian family, not to mention that Zhao Liulian had Tian Baoshan to help her. She ran to Wang Shuifeng to cry. Wang Shuifeng just couldn't explain to the precious city daughter-in-law, and was full of anger. She slapped Tian Xianglan hard to vent her anger, and then scolded Zhao Liulian: I am still alive as a mother-in-law, and it is not your turn as a daughter-in-law to speak. You want to drive my daughter away without my consent, wait until I die! Zhao Liulian cried and made a fuss, and Tian Baoshan immediately came out to confront his mother. Wang Shuifeng slapped her son and scolded him for being unfilial, and sat on the ground and howled. Then Tian Zhiyuan and the two younger sons accused Tian Baoshan that men would resort to violence when they quarreled, even if they were brothers... Suddenly, the Tian family yard was in chaos, as chaotic as a big market.

In the inner room, Xian Fangfang covered her ears with her hands and hid in Tian Zhigao's arms with a terrified look. She was too scared to cry. Tian Zhigao held her and whispered to comfort her, but his face was also full of anger and helplessness: How could his family become like this? Isn't this destroying his reputation in front of his wife?

However, the cart driver, Old Liang, was arrogant and refused to take the money privately. He asked the Tian family to go to the team in a businesslike manner. Only after the team agreed would he harness the ox cart.

Tian Zhigao had no choice but to coax Xian Fangfang to wait patiently. Xian Fangfang had been traumatized by the Tian family yard and was unwilling to stay there. She would rather stand at the entrance of the village and wait. The cold wind was whistling, making her feel even hungrier and thirstier. She inexplicably thought of the table of food, the pot of boiling pork ribs soup, and the juicy cabbage leaves at Meng Taohua's house. She immediately burst into tears, and Tian Zhigao continued to comfort her in a hurry.

Actually, it's not Xian Fangfang's fault for feeling wronged and uncomfortable. She was a pampered girl who grew up in a big city and had no exposure to rural life. Tian Zhigao didn't even notify her family, nor did he send money or things for Wang Shuifeng to renovate the house and make sufficient preparations. He just took Xian Fangfang back to the countryside. She didn't live well or eat well. How could she bear it?

What's more, the Tian family was in a state of decline at that time, and everyone in the Tian family was in a low mood. Of course, they could not receive Xian Fangfang well.

In the novel, Xian Fangfang did not come to Linshui Village so early, because it was Meng Taohua who ate the sticky grass at that time, and was successfully framed by Wang Shuifeng and her daughter, and had to marry Shi Datou. She bore all the bad luck, but the Tian family was all fine, Tian Agui was alive and well, so Xian Fangfang did not have to come to the countryside in advance.

In the following two years, Tian Zhigao worked smoothly and soon became an engineer. He had a successful career and brought all his brothers and sisters to work in the city. Everyone in the Tian family got what they wanted and was in a good mood. The Tian family was thriving. The children all received salaries and no longer asked Wang Shuifeng for money. They would also give her gifts every month. Wang Shuifeng had money on hand, so she repaired and kept the Tian family's yard neat and clean. Only then did Xian Fangfang start to go back to their hometown with Tian Zhigao to celebrate the New Year every year. Naturally, she was also warmly entertained by Wang Shuifeng and Tian Agui, and enjoyed the treatment that a city daughter-in-law should have.

Moreover, they came back in a car, in glory and wealth, without having to walk a single step. At the beginning of reform and opening up, before the 1980s, the Tian family had already built a small Western-style building. They were the first family in Linshui Village to own a building, and they reserved an entire floor for Tian Zhigao and Xian Fangfang to live in. At that time, when Xian Fangfang came to the countryside, she was as relaxed and happy as if she was on vacation. How could she feel wronged?

Now it has become like this, Meng Tao has replaced Meng Taohua, and the situation is different when she flaps her little wings.

I will resume updating to 2,000 words today.

The author caught a cold, so he wore a mask when he went out. He coughed twice, and people around him immediately stayed away from him. . . . So fairies, please keep warm and don’t catch a cold.
