"Guo'er, what are your plans for the next few days? It's a rare opportunity for you to come back, don't you plan to go out for a walk?"
Thinking of what Old Lady Li and Sister Li had said about visiting relatives on the fourth day of the New Year, Li Jinhua was worried that they would cause trouble. She thought that if Uncle San was not in the village that day, there might be fewer problems.
"It's freezing and snowy here, how can it be as comfortable as home?" Lan Guoer replied with a smile, "We've already asked someone to buy the tickets back to the city. We can't stay at home for a few days, so we won't go out."
Lu Jun came over in the morning. In addition to dealing with Zhang Cong's matter, he also brought them tickets back to the city.
After the New Year, universities will start to open one after another, and Tang Zhan’s vacation will only last a few days.
As agreed upon when they returned, Lu Jun bought a ticket for the noon train on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. Lu's father, grateful to the Su family for taking care of his son, used all his connections to buy soft sleeper tickets for them.
"Then Guo'er, don't forget to go to town and meet Xiao Dong! Xiao Dong has been waiting for you!"
Hearing that they had already bought the tickets, Li Jinhua suddenly remembered Dong Miao's instructions, asking Lan Guoer to come and see her when she came back.
Looking at Dong Miao's expression, she had a vague guess that if Lan Guoer didn't go to see her again, their future cooperation would probably come to an end.
Li Jinhua didn't care about anything else at this moment. Their cooperation with Dong Miao was related to the family's monthly income of dozens of yuan!
"I understand, sister-in-law. I will arrange the time." Lan Guoer still smiled faintly.
When she first returned to the village, Lan Guoer was still thinking about how to expand her sisters-in-law's clothing business, but after the incident of Li Jinhua stealing the bracelet, Lan Guoer gave up that idea.
Everyone has his or her own way of living. She can lead them for a while, but she cannot lead them for a lifetime. Opportunities sometimes only last for a moment. If you miss it, you miss it!
But peace between brothers must be maintained, and she will still go to see whoever she wants to see. The main goal is not to promote, but also not to destroy! Let everything take its course.
Towards evening, Lu Jun came back again.
This time, he looked noticeably more relaxed than in the morning.
"It's solved, it's all solved!"
As soon as he entered the house, he took off his shoes and got on the kang as quickly as if he was entering his own home, and sat cross-legged in front of the kang table very naturally.
"I'm telling you, you have no idea how...bah! I'm embarrassed to say it out loud. I've lived for over twenty years and I've never seen anyone so shameless!"
"What? Isn't the baby in her belly your cousin's?"
Seeing his nauseous expression, Tang's mother guessed this possibility.
Lu Jun shook his head, sighed, and said helplessly,
"It's true that the child is my cousin's, but...but...but the way the child came about is a little unacceptable! It's so damn unethical! My cousin feels really wronged."
Lu Jun finished speaking angrily, and seeing that the Tang family members were looking at him with confusion, he did not keep them in suspense and told everyone the whole story of how Wang Qiao and Zhang Cong had sex that night.
When they heard that it was Wang Qiao who rushed to have sex with the drunk Zhang Cong, and that she was the one who took the initiative, everyone in the Tang family stared with wide eyes.
"Did Wang Qiao really do this?!"
Zhao Lai Di couldn't believe what she heard! She stared at him and asked,
"Every day when I see the matchmaker introducing her to potential partners, she's so picky, acting like a chaste woman. How can she possibly be so frivolous behind the scenes?"
"It's absolutely true! She said it all herself! How can we wrongly accuse her?" Lu Jun said affirmatively.
"Is this matter settled?" Tang's mother asked. "What does your cousin plan to do? Is he going to marry Wang Qiao?"
After all, both of them have a child. Even if Wang Qiao took the initiative, Tang's mother felt that Village Chief Wang's family would not let Zhang Cong go easily.
"When we came here, my aunt said that if it was really my cousin who made a mistake, and that woman was pregnant with the Zhang family's child, even if she was a widow, the Zhang family would still be responsible." When Lu Jun said this, he looked ashamed.
"But who knew the truth would be like this! My aunt made her position clear to the Wang family in front of the police!
If Wang Qiao is willing to give birth to the child, the Zhang family can raise it, but if her cousin is allowed to marry her, that is absolutely impossible! The Zhang family will never allow a woman with such a corrupt moral character like Wang Qiao to enter the family.
"Will the Wang family agree?"
Based on Tang's mother's understanding of the Wang family, she felt that this matter might not be so easy to resolve!
After all, Zhang Cong is still an educated youth in the village and has to live under the supervision of Village Chief Wang!
"The Wang family naturally disagrees!
The village chief Wang slapped Wang Qiao in public and threatened his cousin and aunt, saying that if his cousin did not marry his sister, his sister would not be able to survive, and the baby in her belly would not be able to keep it!
But the Wang family was wrong. My aunt had killed a Japanese soldier with her own hands. How could she be easily controlled by him?
In front of the police, she hit her cousin's leg with a stick and broke it.
He said it was his fault and that he had let the child down! Then he went to the Youth League Office and asked for six months of sick leave for his cousin, saying he was taking him back to the city to get his leg treated.
The police found out that the cousin was not primarily responsible for the incident, but he did knock Wang Qiao down after getting drunk that day. If they were to be convicted, neither of them could escape!
The Wang family knew that if they continued to pursue the matter, the police would only charge both of them with adultery, so they had to give up.
So, I had no choice but to bring Wang Qiao back home."
"Your aunt is extraordinary!" After hearing this, Tang's mother couldn't help but give her a thumbs up!
If it were an ordinary mother, she would not have the courage to break her own son's legs.
However, this also allowed Wang Cong to escape the control of Village Chief Wang and get the opportunity to return to the city. This move, to say it was both wise and brave, is not an exaggeration!
"Oh! Speaking of my aunt, she also has a miserable life!"
Lu Jun said, "My uncle was injured in the Korean War and passed away a few years after he came back. My cousin was just born at that time, and he had three older cousins.
My aunt raised four children by herself. If it weren't for her strong character, she wouldn't have been able to get through these years!"
Lan Guoer didn't feel much about this matter, but after hearing this, she couldn't help but admire Lu Jun, her aunt!
As a woman and mother, she can imagine how difficult it was for her to raise the child alone over the years, and can understand the pain behind her strength.
But I didn’t expect that this educated youth Zhang was actually the descendant of a soldier.
"Then come here, where are your aunt and the others?" Lan Guoer asked.
