Chapter 2525【VIP】
Fang Zhiwen's enthusiasm diluted the Xu family's discomfort and awkwardness, but a glance at Xu Shanshan's cold face calmed their excited hearts.
Boss Xu looked at him coldly. This factory son was no worse than Zhou Kai back then. Both of them were henpecked men who acted according to women's moods.
Zhao Xiaohe was utterly bewildered. She didn't understand where her daughter got the confidence to treat Fang Zhiwen this way. She believed that Xu Shanshan should be grateful for marrying the factory's son and work tirelessly for the Fang family.
In fact, when Xu Shanshan was sitting on the sofa, Fang Zhiwen poured her a glass of water.
During the previous mushroom-picking trip, Xu Erya had interacted with Fang Zhiwen. She'd known he cared about her sister, but she hadn't expected him to go to this extent. Daily care wasn't enough; the key was his constant awareness of her emotions.
His sister just frowned slightly, and he immediately changed the topic of his parents. That kind of silent protection was something Xu Erya had never seen before.
Around six o'clock, Fang Yuanzhou and Peng Shuya also returned home from work. They exchanged pleasantries before heading to a private restaurant for dinner.
Zhao Xiaohe felt very uncomfortable when she saw her daughter Xu Shanshan and Peng Shuya arm in arm, talking and laughing.
People say that a son does not despise his mother's ugliness, and a dog does not despise his family's poverty.
Her third daughter is cold-hearted and only cares about money.
Look, she fawns over her capable mother-in-law but is indifferent to her poor mother.
Suddenly, Yang Dani took Zhao Xiaohe's arm. The warmth of their bodies melting the ice in her heart. Zhao Xiaohe sighed and said, "Sister-in-law, this child has been raised astray. She doesn't care about family matters."
"Nonsense, all our children are good." Yang Dani deliberately raised her voice. Seeing Xu Shanshan slightly tilting her ear, she continued, "Besides, as elders, don't we all hope that our children will have a good life? Now that I see Shanshan like this, I feel relieved."
Xu Shanshan remained silent. She was no longer a child and could not be coaxed into submission with just a few words.
Although Xu Shanshan's attitude was indifferent, the Fang family was very respectable, and Fang Yuanzhou did not put on airs at all. He personally poured wine for the two brothers Xu Laoer. The two brothers Xu Laoer quickly stood up and stammered to thank them.
After only two bottles of wine, the Xu brothers were already confused.
Yang Dani tried to pull it out several times but failed.
This fool doesn't even consider the situation? Judging from their drinking habits, they might say some nonsense later.
Yang Dani tried her best to stop the brothers from drinking, but Fang Zhiwen picked up a piece of braised pork and said to her, "Auntie, we are all family. It's okay to drink a little."
"Hey, you, you eat too." Yang Dani didn't know what to say and could only worry in her heart.
However, the more you fear something, the more likely it is to happen. After two glasses of wine, her mind was muddled, but her courage was strong. Still angry at his daughter's attitude, Xu Laoer took off his cloth shoes and hit Xu Shanshan on the back of the head.
Because of his skilled movements and fast speed, although Fang Zhiwen protected Xu Shanshan, his own arm was injured.
Yang Dani and Zhao Xiaohe went to break up the fight, but were slapped in the face by the men. Boss Xu sat there, pointing at Xu Shanshan with the greasy tip of his chopsticks, and said slowly, "You little bitch, I think you're a little loose, you need your father to tighten it up for you."
Yang Dani's heart tightened, knowing that Xu Lao Da was truly drunk. Neither of them had a good drinking habit. When drunk, Xu Lao Er liked to hit people, while Xu Lao Da cursed people viciously.
Once the honest man's mask was torn off, the face that was revealed was hideous and disgusting.
Fang Zhiwen hugged Xu Shanshan in his arms distressedly. Yang Dani explained weakly to Fang Yuanzhou and Peng Shuya, "They are drunk and talking nonsense."
"Truth comes out when drunk. It seems our Fang family still failed to entertain you well enough."
"Hey, hey, no, in-laws..."
However, before Yang Dani could appease her in-laws, Xu Lao Da started making dirty jokes and pointing fingers at Xu Shanshan's figure. Those offensive words immediately made Fang Yuanzhou and Fang Zhiwen furious. The father and son duo pinned Xu Lao Da to the ground and beat him up. Xu Lao Er also assisted his brother, and the box was completely destroyed.
Yang Dani and Zhao Xiaohe hid in the corner, slapping their thighs and crying loudly.
If Xu Erya hadn't protected the table, I'm afraid all the delicious food would have been shattered on the ground.
"Shanshan, let's go home." Peng Shuya pulled Xu Shanshan home, not caring about the Xu family at all.
On the way back, Fang Yuanzhou kept a stern face, and Xu Shanshan's eyes were full of tears. Embarrassment and humiliation, inferiority and despair were intertwined in her.
"Shanshan, this has nothing to do with you. It's all the fault of that brat Zhiwen." Fang Yuanzhou was so angry that he kicked his son.
Fang Zhiwen didn't dare to say anything. He had arranged today's dinner the moment he received the letter from his elder sister.
He didn't have much contact with his father-in-law's brothers, but he had heard people mention that they had arranged a drink together and even booked a private room.
This place is remote and he has brothers to help him. Even if he originally wanted to have a quarrel or a fight with the Xu family, he could just give them a warning.
.
Damn it, today's incident, he.
Originally, I thought of giving them a warning, then throwing in some sweet treats, giving them a small profit, and just maintaining the grand scene.
This is what Shanshan did in her previous life.
At this moment, Fang Zhiwen changed his mind. Sweetness, profit, bah, just dream on, go eat shit.
As expected, as soon as Fang Zhiwen and the others left, Yang Dani and Zhao Xiaohe were immediately at a loss. They said to Xu Erya, "Erya, you two sisters have a good relationship. Go and ask Shanshan for help."
Xu Erya sat at the table eating her meal. After a long while, she sneered and said, "I don't have the nerve to do that."
Zhao Xiaohe was so angry that she wanted to hit her. At this moment, the shop owner came over to clean up the dishes. Seeing this, he immediately yelled at them to pay for the tables and chairs.
Boss Xu and Boss Xu were drunk, but they were still fighting.
Then the group was thrown into the police station by the store owner.
It was not until the next day, when Boss Xu and Second Brother Xu sobered up and recalled what had happened yesterday, they slapped themselves in the face in anger.
They spoke in a thick dialect and tried to please the police officers, but the shop owner insisted on asking them to pay for the renovation and medical expenses, which added up to fifty or sixty yuan.
Yang Dani said angrily: "Are you robbing me?"
"Why would I steal money? Look at the back of my head, it's bleeding from being hit."
"Comrade, please be kind. We farmers don't have that much money. So, go find my son-in-law. He's from a well-off family and has a lot of money."
......
Fang Zhiwen wanted to deal with the Xu family himself, but Xu Shanshan insisted, "I'll go too."
"Shanshan, if you don't want to see them, I can do that too."
"It's not about being happy or not. I just have to go. Zhiwen, I've changed, and only then did they realize the change. Besides, my second sister is still here."
The young couple quickly arrived at the police station. Of course, Boss Xu and his group weren't detained; they'd just been fighting, not enough to warrant detention or jail time. The owner of the private shop simply didn't know where to place them, so he simply handed them over to the police.
But Boss Xu and the others had no idea and thought they were going to jail, so they were scared to death.
When Xu Shanshan arrived, both Xu Lao Da and Yang Dani were scared to tears.
"Shanshan, Dad just had a few drinks and didn't mean to cause trouble. You should explain it clearly to these comrades." Boss Xu looked at Xu Shanshan eagerly. Now they could only ask Xu Shanshan and Fang Zhiwen for help.
"Why should I help you explain it clearly?" Xu Shanshan said indifferently.
"Shanshan, you! Aren't you afraid that Fang Zhiwen will see your true face?"
Fang Zhiwen immediately expressed his loyalty and said, "I just like to see Shanshan slap the best in the face."
Yang Dani didn't understand, but she got the gist. Does Fang Zhiwen have a temper? Why does he always listen to Xu Shanshan?
Doesn’t he find it scary that a woman doesn’t even want her own family?
That's what Yang Dani thought and asked. Fang Zhiwen then asked, "Do you treat Shanshan as a child? No one would talk nonsense."
Boss Xu was extremely embarrassed, but he was no fool. He asked Xu Shanshan, "If you don't want to help us, why are you here?"
"Bring my second sister to join in the fun."
Xu Erya ate breakfast with a complicated expression. This time, she also felt that Xu Shanshan's methods were too cruel.
I thought they were just quarreling, but how come they took their biological parents to the police station?
Xu Erya is not a fool. She saw through the affair between Fang Zhiwen and the shop owner yesterday.
The Xu brothers were speechless, while Zhao Xiaohe started crying and playing the emotional card. She said, "We won't come here again."
She just wanted to see her daughter, but her daughter was so unfilial.
From now on, just pretend that Xu Shanshan was never born.
Xu Laoer's face turned gloomy, and he said that he would never recognize Xu Shanshan as his daughter again. He even said, "When your mother and I die in the future, you are not allowed to wear mourning clothes and cry at our graves."
Although Boss Xu and Yang Dani were unwilling, they saw that Xu Shanshan's expression had softened and they thought they had figured out what she was thinking.
"Okay, if you can get us out, we won't come to Linshi again."
Xu Shanshan said after a while: "Okay, then you pay the money and I will sign."
"We don't have that much money, you pay for it."
Xu Shanshan remained silent, and the situation became stalemate. Finally, the Xu brothers had no choice but to pay all the money, but it was still not enough. Xu Shanshan did not let her second sister pay, but asked them to write an IOU.
Fang Zhiwen said, "Let's go. I'll take you to the station."
Everyone was silent, and Xu Shanshan said to her second sister, "Sister, do you want to stay a few more days?"
"No, my parents have never ridden in a car before and are not used to it."
"Sister, I."
"Shanshan, I understand. You should live a good life in Lin City. Congcong and Hongxia really like the tapes and tape recorder you sent them last time. They read along with them every day and have even learned to speak a few foreign words. Hongxia said she wants to take the college entrance exam and go to Lin City."
"Shanshan, now that you've done it, stick with it. You can see that I don't agree with it, but I won't oppose you. You had a very difficult childhood."
"Sister, you don't know..." Xu Shanshan really found it difficult to speak.
Her appearance and figure would be a disaster in the countryside.
"Shanshan, take good care of yourself. Your brother-in-law is a good man, and I think God is fair. You suffered in the past, but now you are lucky to have met your brother-in-law. So, forget the unpleasantness of the past and live a good life."
"Sister, I understand. You're fine too. Congcong and Hongxia must study hard. This is the comic book I prepared for them. Oh, and here are some cakes and fruits."
"Second sister, you too, live a good life."
Xu Erya smiled, hugged her sister, and then went home with her family. On the way, Yang Dani cursed Xu Shanshan with all her viciousness, saying that Fang Zhiwen had dumped her and that no one would want her even if she went out to sell herself.
"Mom, your aunt is scolding your daughter, aren't you going to fight back?" Zhao Xiaohe was stunned by the word "Mom". She said, "Er Ya, your aunt is just angry and scolding you. It's impossible for her to really do that."
Xu Erya closed her eyes and gave up the idea of talking to them.
All she could think about was the careful care Fang Zhiwen showed Xu Shanshan. It was as if her sister was the most precious treasure in the world, who had to be held in the palm of his hand, protected and coaxed at all times.
People are so different from each other.
Although Lin City was in chaos this time, Xu Erya understood something.
Even the naive Zhao Xiaohe was a little stunned. She secretly thought to herself that it turns out that women can live like Shanshan.
It turns out that when a couple lives together, it is not necessary for the woman to please the man all the time.
It turns out that men can do housework.
But how did Shanshan do it? If it was because of her beauty, but she saw that Shanshan's mother-in-law was not good-looking, why was Shanshan's father-in-law willing to take care of her in various ways?
Zhao Xiaohe closed her eyes, and in her mind was Fang Yuanzhou taking careful and thoughtful care of Peng Shuya at the dinner table.
She thought that if a woman could live to this point, her life would be worth it.
